Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the most common chronic respiratory disease around the world, and pharmacotherapy is the foremost treatment method currently. In recent decades, with the rapid development of bronchoscopic interventional therapy, endoscopic physical ablation technology presents a therapeutic effect in treating COPD, with few treatment-related side effects, showing excellent application prospects in treating COPD. Since ablation techniques in this field are emerging technologies with low patient acceptance, they are not widely used in the clinical treatment of COPD. This article reviews the development process of physical ablation techniques. Moreover, their current application status and the prospects in the field of COPD treatment are also summarized and analyzed. We hope to promote the application of physical ablation in the clinical treatment of COPD and provide practical references and a theoretical basis for the clinical treatment of COPD.

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.

ObjectiveAutism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by difficulties with communication and social interaction, restricted and repetitive behaviors. Previous studies have indicated that individuals with ASD exhibit early and lifelong attention deficits, which are closely related to the core symptoms of ASD. Basic visual attention processes may provide a critical foundation for their social communication and interaction abilities. Therefore, this study explores the behavior of children with ASD in capturing attention to changes in topological properties. MethodsOur study recruited twenty-seven ASD children diagnosed by professional clinicians according to DSM-5 and twenty-eight typically developing (TD) age-matched controls. In an attention capture task, we recorded the saccadic behaviors of children with ASD and TD in response to topological change (TC) and non-topological change (nTC) stimuli. Saccadic reaction time (SRT), visual search time (VS), and first fixation dwell time (FFDT) were used as indicators of attentional bias. Pearson correlation tests between the clinical assessment scales and attentional bias were conducted. ResultsThis study found that TD children had significantly faster SRT (P<0.05) and VS (P<0.05) for the TC stimuli compared to the nTC stimuli, while the children with ASD did not exhibit significant differences in either measure (P>0.05). Additionally, ASD children demonstrated significantly less attention towards the TC targets (measured by FFDT), in comparison to TD children (P<0.05). Furthermore, ASD children exhibited a significant negative linear correlation between their attentional bias (measured by VS) and their scores on the compulsive subscale (P<0.05). ConclusionThe results suggest that children with ASD have difficulty shifting their attention to objects with topological changes during change detection. This atypical attention may affect the child’s cognitive and behavioral development, thereby impacting their social communication and interaction. In sum, our findings indicate that difficulties in attentional capture by TC may be a key feature of ASD.

BACKGROUND:Intertrochanteric fracture of femur has various fracture types and fixation methods,and the mechanical stability of each fixation system is quite different.It is of scientific clinical significance to use finite element analysis method to carry out biomechanical research on various fixation systems. OBJECTIVE:To compare and analyze the mechanical stability of various internal fixations applied to femoral intertrochanteric fracture A031-A2.1 by finite element method. METHODS:Based on the validated finite element model of femur(Intact),the model was cut and made into A031-A2.1 intertrochanteric fracture of femur.Different internal fixation systems were implanted by simulating clinical operation methods,and fixation models of proximal femoral nail antirotation,dynamic hip screw,percutaneous compression plate and proximal femoral locking plate were established respectively.All nodes under the distal femur of the four groups of models were constrained,and compression loads of 700,1 400 and 2 100 N were applied to the femoral head.Von Mises stress distribution and compression stiffness of each group of models were observed through calculation and analysis,and mechanical stability of each group was compared. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Through calculation and analysis,after calculating the compression stiffness by comparing the deformation of each model,the compression stiffness of each model under various loads showed the trend:physiological group>proximal femoral nail antirotation group>proximal femoral locking plate group>percutaneous compression plate group>dynamic hip screw group.The compressive stiffness of the complete physiological group model was significantly higher than that of all surgical group models.(2)The stress index was observed.Due to the stress shielding effect,the stress peak value of each fixed group was higher than that of physiological group,and the maximum peak value was concentrated on each internal fixation.Proximal femoral nail antirotation group had the smallest stress peak,while dynamic hip screw group had the highest stress.The stress distribution trend showed physiological group

Objective To observe the value of training about ovarian-adnexal reporting and data system((O-RADS)for risk stratification of adnexal lesions diagnostic efficacy of different seniority physicians before and after training.Methods A total of 575 O-RADS 1-5 point lesions from 470 patients who received non-contrast enhanced pelvic MR and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI(DCE-MRI)were retrospectively included.The lesions were scored by 1 junior radiologist(radiologist A)and 1 senior radiologist(radiologist B)independently according to O-RADS risk stratification,and the results were recorded as R1 and R2,respectively.Three months later,the lesions were rescored by radiologist A and B after receiving systematic training from gynecological imaging experts,and the results were recorded as R11 and R22,respectively.Two gynecological imaging experts conducted a consensus scoring,and the results were recorded as R0.Taken O-RADS score＞3 as the criterion for malignant,the diagnostic efficacy of radiologist A and B before and after training were evaluated,while taken R0 as the reference,the intra-observer,inter-observer consistency between radiologist A and B,as well as their consistency with R0 were calculated.Results The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of R0 was 95.21%and 93.14%,respectively.The diagnostic sensitivity of radiologist A before and after training was 92.22%and 95.21%,with specificity of 83.33%and 89.46%,respectively.For radiologist B,the sensitivity before and after training was 95.81%and 95.21%,with specificity of 92.89%and 91.91%,respectively.Good intra-observer consistency of O-RADS score was observed both in radiologist A and B,with Kappa value of 0.845 and 0.884,respectively,which also noticed between radiologist A and B,with Kappa value of 0.761,and the Kappa value of R1,R2 and R0 was 0.781 and 0.911,respectively.After training,the inter-observer consistency of radiologist A and B increased,and Kappa value of R11,R22 and R0 was 0.844 and 0.915,respectively.Conclusion Training about O-RADS for risk stratification was helpful to improving diagnostic specificity of benign and malignant adnexal lesions,especially for junior radiologists.

Objective:To investigate the clinical application of ultrasound-guided cervical plexus block combined with superior laryngeal nerve block in tracheotomy for burn patients.Methods:A total of 88 burn patients who underwent tracheotomy from January 2022 to December 2022 were divided into observation group(44 cases)and matched group(44 cases).The matched group received conventional general anesthesia,while the observation group underwent ultrasound-guided cervical plexus block combined with superior laryngeal nerve block.The operation time,anesthetic effect,intraoperative hemodynamic parameters,postoperative complications,and patient satisfaction were compared.Results:The surgery time in the observation group was shorter than that in the matched group(P＜0.05).The anesthetic effect in the observation group was superior to that in the matched group,with more stable intraoperative hemodynamics,and smaller fluctuations in heart rate and mean arterial pressure(P＜0.05).The incidence of postoperative cough reflex,hoarseness,postoperative pain score,and respiratory complications in the observation group were lower than those in the matched group(P＜0.05).Patient satisfaction in the observation group was higher than that in the matched group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Ultrasound-guided cervical plexus block combined with superior laryngeal nerve block for tracheotomy in burn patients can effectively improve anesthetic effect,reduce operation time,stabilize intraoperative hemodynamics,reduce postoperative complications,and improve patient satisfaction,which is worthy of clinical application.

Medical ultrasound technology is widely used for diagnosis and therapy in clinical practice.Ultrasound probes,which are directly contact with patients,pose a potential risk of pathogen transmission.This expert consen-sus was developed by a multidisciplinary team based on international guidelines,standards in China,and the results of a national survey,aiming to reduce the risk of healthcare-associated infection through standardizing reprocessing of medical ultrasound probes,and formulating consensus recommendations with the Delphi method.The consensus clarifies the reprocessing principles for three types of ultrasound probes of different infection risks:external-use ul-trasound probes,interventional percutaneous ultrasound probes,and internal-use ultrasound probes,puts forward systematic suggestions on the reprocessing standards and disinfection levels of ultrasound probe isolation covers and coupling agents,the reprocessing procedures and methods of ultrasound probes,as well as architectural layout and management of reprocessing,so as to provide a scientific prevention and control framework for ensuring ultrasound diagnosis and therapy safety.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the toxicity and safety of novel Mycobacterium tuberculosis fusion strain protein derivatives,referred to as B/R strain active proteins.In cellular experiments,RAW264.7 cells were treated with each vaccine preparation,and apoptosis rates were measured.In subsequent animal experiments,C57BL/6 mice were immunized via subcutaneous injection,and their survival and body weight changes were monitored and recorded at 2,4,8,12,and 16 weeks.The lungs and spleens were harvested to calculate organ coefficients,and pathological examinations were conducted.At the eighth week of immunization,the mice were infected with high concentrations of BCG,and pathological changes in the lungs and spleens were observed 4 weeks post-infection.The apoptosis rate at 6 hours was significantly higher in the experimental group than the PBS group(P<0.05).At 12 and 24 hours,the apoptosis rate in the experimental group remained higher than that in the PBS group,although this difference was not statistically significant.After immunization,mice in all four groups exhibited normal growth patterns,as indicated by stable body weight changes.At 4 and 12 weeks post-immunization,the lung coefficients in the protein group were significantly higher than those in the PBS group at the same time points.Additionally,the lung coefficients in the BCG group were significantly elevated across all time periods(P<0.05).The spleen coefficients in the protein and BCG groups were significantly higher than those in the PBS group at 2,4,8,12,and 16 weeks,whereas the ICD B/R group showed higher spleen coefficients than the PBS group only at week 8(P<0.05).Pathological examination revealed normal lung and spleen tissues in the PBS group.However,during the 2-8 weeks immunization period,lung and spleen tissues in all experimental groups exhibited varying degrees of damage,which gradually diminished by 12-16 weeks.Notably,no tuberculosis nodules were observed in any experimental group.After infection with high concentrations of BCG,no overt pathological changes were observed on the surfaces of the lungs and spleens in any group.Microscopic examination revealed less severe pathological changes in the lungs and spleens of mice in the experimental groups than the PBS group.Furthermore,no statistically significant differences were observed between the protein group and the BCG group.Our findings suggested that the B/R strain active proteins'toxicity and safety profiles were comparable to those of BCG,and showed immunoprotective effects.This study provides an experimental foundation for the development of a novel tuberculosis vaccine.

Objective:To investigate the effect of long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)nuclear enriched transcript 1(NEAT1)on lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced human embryonic lung cells(WI-38)injury by regulating microRNA-495-3p(miR-495-3p).Methods:WI-38 cells were treated with 10 μg/ml LPS to establish an in vitro pneumonia model.Real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qPCR)was used to detect the expression levels of NEAT1 and miR-495-3p in WI-38 cells.The dual lucif-erase reporter assay was used to detect the targeting relationship between NEAT1 and miR-495-3p.Cell counting kit and flow cytome-try were used to detect the effect of knockdown NEAT1 on the proliferation and apoptosis of WI-38 cells treated with LPS.Western blot was used to detect Bcl-2,Bax and Cleaved caspase-3 protein expressions.ELISA was used to detect the levels of inflammatory factors IL-6,IL-8 and IL-1β.Results:LPS stimulation could up-regulate the expression of NEAT1 and inhibit the expression of miR-495-3p in WI-38;NEAT1 directly targeted miR-495-3p,and NEAT1 knockdown could promote the expressions of miR-495-3p.Functionally,LPS inhibited the proliferation of WI-38 cells and promoted cell apoptosis and the expression of the inflammatory factors IL-6,IL-8 and IL-1β(P<0.05).Knockdown of NEAT1 could inhibit LPS-induced WI-38 cell apoptosis and inflammation,and promote cell pro-liferation.Conclusion:Knockdown of NEAT1 can inhibit LPS-induced apoptosis and inflammation of WI-38 cells by negatively regu-lating miR-495-3p.
