Objective To systematically analyze the literature characteristics of Journal of Organ Transplantation since its inception. Methods Using the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) academic journal full-text database as the data source, all articles published in the Journal of Organ Transplantation from January 2010 to August 2025 were retrieved. After excluding non-academic papers, a total of 1 568 research papers were included. R language 4.3.0, Bibliometrix package 3.2.1, and Citespace software were used to analyze the number of publications, publishing institutions, authors, keywords and other aspects. Results The number of publications in Journal of Organ Transplantation increased from an average of 82 articles per year in the early years after its inception to 113 articles per year in recent years, a growth of 37.8%. The geographical distribution of publishing institutions covers 32 provinces, cities and autonomous regions nationwide, mainly concentrated in the South China, East China and North China regions, and has now basically covered the central and western regions in recent years. The author collaboration network includes 45 authors distributed across 7 major collaboration clusters, forming a stable multi-level national research system centered on key university-affiliated hospitals. The high-frequency keywords are dominated by "liver transplantation" (425 times) and "kidney transplantation" (396 times). The theme evolution shows a clear three-stage characteristic: initially focusing on clinical technology application, deepening to immune mechanism exploration in the middle stage, and recently (since 2022) focusing on cutting-edge research areas such as xenotransplantation. Conclusions Journal of Organ Transplantation has witnessed the rapid development of China's organ transplantation cause, fully reflecting the research status and trends in China's organ transplantation field, and has provided an important platform for the future development and international cooperation in China's organ transplantation field.

Objective:
To understand the epidemiological characteristics of a pertussis outbreak in Guangzhou, so as to provide references for outbreak response and prevention strategies.
Methods:
From April 5 to June 9, 2024, case screening was conducted among 246 preschool children, 35 staff members, and one full time school nurse in a kindergarten in Guangzhou based on case definition. Field epidemiological investigation methods were employed to collect relevant information, and screening samples were collected from individuals involved in the outbreak. The clinical manifestations, epidemiological characteristics, and risk factors for transmission of the outbreak were analyzed, with rate comparisons performed using the χ 2 test.
Results:
There were a total of 15 confirmed cases of pertussis in the kindergarten. The main clinical manifestations included intermittent cough in 14 cases ( 93.33 %), sputum production in 5 cases (33.33%), fever in 2 cases (13.33%), paroxysmal spasmodic cough in 1 case (6.67%), and vomiting in 1 case (6.67%). There was no statistically significant difference in the reporting rates of interrupted cough symptoms between pertussis cases (93.33%) and non pertussis cases (92.86%)( χ 2=3.74, P >0.05). The cases were aged 4-5 years, including 5 males and 10 females. The interval between symptom onset and diagnosis ranged from 2 to 25 days, with a median of 10 days. The outbreak involved two classes, with attack rates of 48.28% and 3.45%, respectively. Laboratory testing confirmed 14 close contacts positive for Bordetella pertussisnucleic acid. Among close contacts, only one received prophylactic medication as required.
Conclusion
The outbreak is a pertussis outbreak in a kindergarten caused by Bordetella pertussis infection, demonstrating distinct temporal and spatial clustering characteristics.

Objective To investigate the etiology and treatment of dysuria shortly after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), so as to improve the therapeutic efficacy. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 1361 BPH patients who received HoLEP at our hospital during Mar. 2018 and Mar. 2025. All patients underwent ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), urethral probing or radiography, cystourethroscopy, and urodynamic testing. The causes, treatments and prognosis of dysuria after operation were summarized. Results ninety-eight patients (7.2%) experienced dysuria within 3 months after surgery, and all patients received initial urethral dilation. Among the 62 cases with urethral stricture, 28 were treated with urethral dilation (average of 8 sessions), 16 underwent external urethral incision, 8 underwent anterior urethroplasty, and 10 underwent transurethral plasma incision for urethral stricture. Of the 12 cases with residual prostate tissue, 5 underwent urethral plasma prostatectomy and 7 received medication. All of the 12 cases with bladder neck contracture underwent transurethral plasma incision of the bladder neck and local drug injection. Five cases with intravesical blood clots underwent urethral blood clot irrigation, 2 of which developed active bleeding and then underwent electrocoagulation. Four cases with detrusor dysfunction had catheters re-indwelled for one week followed by medication. Two cases with stone and one case with tissue fragment impacted in the urethra underwent urethral holmium lithotripsy and cystoscopic removal. All patients underwent reoperation successfully and experienced complete resolution or significant improvement of urinary difficulties. Conclusion A certain proportion of patients experience dysuria after HoLEP, with diverse etiologies. The combination of prevention and treatment can reduce the incidence of dysuria.

Objective:To investigate the situation of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in elderly people in fluorosis areas, and analyze its potential influencing factors.Methods:From April to October 2020, a cluster random sampling method was used to select local elderly people aged 60 and older in areas of drinking-water-borne endemic fluorosis in Tianjin, and their general information was collected through face-to-face surveys. Terminal drinking water samples were collected from survey subjects. Water fluoride concentration was measured using ion-selective electrode method. Cognitive function was evaluated using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and survey subjects were categorized into MCI group and control group based on MMSE scores. Logistic regression and Chi-squared automatic interaction detection classification tree models were constructed to analyze the influencing factors of MCI.Results:A total of 677 subjects were included, including 160 cases in the MCI group and 517 cases in the control group, with a MCI detection rate of 23.63%. The detection rates of MCI in the high fluoride exposure group and non high fluoride exposure group were 30.82% (94/305) and 17.74% (66/372), respectively, with a statistically significant difference between the groups (χ 2 = 15.88, P < 0.001). The results of univariate analysis showed that MCI was associated with high fluoride exposure, age, per capita annual household income, sleep duration, personality, and interpersonal relationships (χ 2 = 15.88, 16.17, 12.32, 8.91, 14.03, 9.81, P < 0.05). The results of multiple logistic regression analysis showed that moderate interpersonal relationships ( OR = 2.13, 95% CI: 1.08, 4.20) and high fluoride exposure ( OR = 1.91, 95% CI: 1.03, 3.54) were both risk factors for MCI ( P < 0.05). The classification tree model analysis result showed that high fluoride exposure was the primary factor affecting MCI in elderly people in fluorosis areas, followed by per capita annual household income, personality, and age. Conclusions:The detection rate of MCI in the high fluoride exposure group of elderly people in fluorosis areas is higher than that in the non high fluoride exposure group. High fluoride exposure, interpersonal relationships, per capita annual household income, personality, and age are all influencing factors of MCI in elderly people in fluorosis areas.

Objective:To learn about the iodine nutrition status of pregnant women in Tianjin and analyze the influencing factors of moderate to severe iodine deficiency in pregnant women.Methods:From January 2022 to December 2024, a stratified random sampling method was adopted. Each year, five sampling areas were divided into the east, west, south, north and central directions in 16 districts of Tianjin. Ten pregnant women from one township/street in each area were selected for questionnaire surveys. Household salt samples and random urine samples were collected to measure salt iodine and urinary iodine levels. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of moderate to severe iodine deficiency in pregnant women, and a restricted cubic spline model was used to analyze the dose-response relationship between the risk of moderate to severe iodine deficiency in pregnant women and salt iodine level.Results:A total of 2 532 pregnant women in Tianjin were surveyed, with an age of (30.70 ± 4.44) years. Among them, 53.20% (1 347/2 532) had received health education, and 52.45% (1 328/2 532) actively supplemented iodine. A total of 2 532 household salt samples of pregnant women were tested, with a median salt iodine level of 23.66 mg/kg. The coverage rate of iodized salt was 74.45% (1 885/2 532), the qualified rate of iodized salt was 87.59% (1 651/1 885), and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 65.21% (1 651/2 532). A total of 2 532 urine samples of pregnant women were tested, with a median urinary iodine level of 151.68 μg/L. Among them, 652, 1 348 and 532 urine samples were collected from pregnant women in the early, middle, and late stages of pregnancy, respectively, with median urinary iodine levels of 150.80, 153.00 and 143.68 μg/L, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that consuming iodized salt was a protective factor for the moderate to severe iodine deficiency in pregnant women ( OR = 0.70, 95% CI: 0.58 - 0.86, P < 0.001). Restricted cubic spline analysis showed that there was a linear dose-response relationship between the risk of moderate to severe iodine deficiency in pregnant women and salt iodine level ( Poverall < 0.001, Pnonlinear = 0.065). Further stratified analysis revealed that there was a linear dose-response relationship between the risk of moderate to severe iodine deficiency in pregnant women who had received iodine supplementation and salt iodine level ( Poverall = 0.018, Pnonlinear = 0.554), while there was a nonlinear dose-response relationship between the risk of moderate to severe iodine deficiency in pregnant women who had not received iodine supplementation and salt iodine level ( Poverall < 0.001, Pnonlinear = 0.029). Conclusions:From 2022 to 2024, the overall iodine level of pregnant women in Tianjin is appropriate, but some pregnant women are at risk of iodine deficiency. Consuming iodized salt is a protective factor against the moderate to severe iodine deficiency in pregnant women. It is still necessary to further implement comprehensive prevention and control measures mainly based on iodized salt.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of dental fluorosis in children in Tianjin and study its influencing factors.Methods:From January to December 2023, 5 affected villages were selected from each of the drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis (drinking water-borne fluorosis for short) areas of 10 agricultural areas in Tianjin, and 50 children aged 8 - 12 years (gender and age balanced) were selected from each affected village for questionnaire survey and dental fluorosis examination. At the same time, water samples from affected villages and children's one random urine sample were collected to test for fluoride levels in water and urine. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of dental fluorosis prevalence in children, and a restricted cubic spline model was used to analyze the dose-response relationship between the years of water improvement and dental fluorosis prevalence.Results:A total of 50 water samples were collected, with water fluoride levels ranging from 0.05 to 0.85 mg/L. All affected villages had completed the water improvement and the water fluoride levels were qualified. A total of 2 439 urine samples were collected from children, with urinary fluoride levels ranging from 0.05 to 12.56 mg/L and a geometric mean of 0.82 mg/L. A total of 2 439 children were examined for dental fluorosis, with a detection rate of 22.67% (553/2 439). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR = 1.26, 95% CI: 1.15 - 1.37, P < 0.001), father's education level of junior high school or below ( OR = 1.57, 95% CI: 1.04 - 2.38, P = 0.033), and high urinary fluoride (0.74 - 1.58 mg/L: OR = 1.59, 95% CI: 1.19 - 2.13, P = 0.002; 1.59 - 12.56 mg/L: OR = 2.00, 95% CI: 1.48 - 2.70, P < 0.001) were risk factors for dental fluorosis prevalence in children. The total annual household income with 40 000 to 80 000 yuan ( OR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.58 - 0.99, P = 0.041), father's occupation was self-employed and other occupation ( OR = 0.69, 95% CI: 0.51 - 0.92, P = 0.013), the years of water improvement in affected villages ≥10 years ( OR = 0.39, 95% CI: 0.30 - 0.50, P < 0.001), and the material of the drinking water container at home was stainless steel products ( OR = 0.58, 95% CI: 0.40 - 0.85, P = 0.005), ceramic or glass products ( OR = 0.66, 95% CI: 0.48 - 0.90, P = 0.010) were protective factors for dental fluorosis prevalence in children. By constructing a restricted cubic spline model, it was found that there was a linear dose-response relationship between the prevalence of dental fluorosis in children and the years of water improvement in affected villages ( Poverall < 0.001, Pnonlinear = 0.059). The longer the years of water improvement, the lower the risk of dental fluorosis prevalence. Conclusions:The detection rate of dental fluorosis in children in Tianjin is relatively high. The fluoride reduction and water improvement measures implemented in drinking water-borne fluorosis areas can effectively reduce the risk of dental fluorosis prevalence. Factors such as age, urinary fluoride, economic conditions, and lifestyle also have important impacts on the prevalence of dental fluorosis.

Objective:To investigate the awareness of prevention and treatment knowledge of drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis among children in Tianjin, explore its influencing factors, analyze the needs of children's health education methods, and provide a basis for carrying out health education in school.Methods:From January to December in 2024, a stratified sampling method was employed to select two endemic villages from each of the 10 areas with drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis in Tianjin as survey sites. In each village, no fewer than 50 children aged 8 - 12 (gender and age balanced) were recruited to conduct a questionnaire survey. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of children's awareness of prevention and treatment knowledge.Results:A total of 1 678 valid questionnaires were collected. The overall awareness rate of prevention and control knowledge of drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis among children in Tianjin was 67.62% (11 346/16 780). Children had the highest awareness of the hazards of drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis (83.61%, 1 403/1 678), while their awareness of the clinical manifestations of dental fluorosis was the lowest (44.87%, 753/1 678). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that children in higher grades [grades 5 to 6, OR (95% CI) = 1.66 (1.36, 2.03), P < 0.001], with a larger number of permanent residents in the family [≥6 people, OR (95% CI) = 1.58 (1.13, 2.23), P = 0.008], whose mothers had a college education or above [ OR (95% CI) = 1.45 (1.08, 1.95), P = 0.014], and who had received health education [ OR (95% CI) = 1.46 (1.19, 1.78), P < 0.001] had a higher awareness rate of the prevention and control knowledge of drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis. There were statistically significant differences in the demand rates for access to prevention and control knowledge via school teachers, promotional videos, and online/WeChat official accounts among children of different grades ( P < 0.05). Conclusions:The awareness rate of prevention and treatment knowledge of drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis among children in Tianjin is relatively low. Special attention should be paid to children with a small number of permanent residents in the family, mothers with low educational levels, and who have not received health education. At the same time, detailed health publicity services should be carried out for children of different grades.
