In order to further standardize the vaccination of kidney transplant candidates and recipients in China, the Branch of Organ Transplantation of Chinese Medical Association has organized experts in kidney transplantation and infectious diseases. Based on the "Vaccination of Solid Organ Transplant Candidates and Recipients: Guidelines from the American Society of Transplantation Infectious Diseases Community of Practice", and in combination with the clinical reality of infectious diseases and vaccination after organ transplantation in China, as well as referring to relevant recommendations from home and abroad in recent years, these guidelines are formulated from aspects such as epidemiology, types of vaccines, vaccination principles, target population, and specific vaccine administration. The "Guidelines for Vaccination of Kidney Transplant Candidates and Recipients in China" aims to provide theoretical reference for medical workers in the field of kidney transplantation in China, regarding the vaccination of kidney transplant candidates and recipients. It is expected to better guide the vaccination of kidney transplant candidates and recipients, reduce the risk of postoperative infection, and improve survival outcomes.

Objective:To compare the changes of maximun flow rate and residual urine volume after tension-free vaginal tape(TVT)and trans-obturator tape(TOT)in the treatment of stress urinary incon-tinence in women.Methods:The clinical data of female patients with stress urinary incontinence who underwent transvaginal midsection tension-free urethral suspension in Peking University People's Hospital from January 2022 to January 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.All the patients were followed up 1 month,6 months and 12 months after surgery.Urodynamics were performed to evaluate urethral sphincter function before surgery.At the same time,B-ultrasonography was improved to determine the residual uri-nary volume of the bladder,and urgent incontinence,detrusor weakness and bladder outlet obstruction were excluded,and the diagnosis was clearly stress incontinence.Maximum flow rate and residual urinary volume were measured during follow-up,and combined with the urinary incontinence questionnaire of the International Urinary Incontinence Advisory Committee,the surgical effect was judged to be cured,im-proved or ineffective according to the degree of improvement of urinary leakage symptoms after surgery.Results:A total of 150 female patients with stress urinary incontinence were included in the study,the average age of the patients was(55.12±10.23)years old,and the follow-up time was 12 months.All patients completed postoperative follow-up,of whom 60 underwent TVT and 90 underwent TOT.The overall effective rates(cure+improvement)1,6,and 12 months after surgery in the TVT group were 93.3％(56/60),91.7％(55/60),and 91.7％(55/60),and those in the TOT group were 92.2％(83/90),90.0％(81/90),90.0％(81/90),respectively,and there was no statistical difference be-tween the two groups.The average maximum urinary flow rates 1,6,and 12 months after surgery in the TVT group were(17.21±4.22)mL/s,(18.05±5.33)mL/s,and(18.37±4.92)mL/s,and those in the TOT group were(18.21±5.32)mL/s,(19.05±4.33)mL/s,and(19.27±4.92)mL/s,re-spectively,and there was no statistical difference between the two groups.The mean residual urine volume 1,6,and 12 months after surgery in the TVT group was(13.21±5.22)mL,(18.25±5.33)mL,and(16.37±7.92)mL,and those in the TOT group was(11.21±6.32)mL,(13.05±5.33)mL,and(11.27±5.92)mL,respectively,and there was no statistical difference between the two groups.Compared with preoperative levels,there were no significant differences in the average maximum flow rate and the residual urine volume in both group at 1,6,and 12 months after surgery.Conclusion:Both TVT and TOT are effective in the treatment of stress incontinence,and have no effect on postopera-tive maximum flow rate and residual urine volume.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for ligamentum flavum hypertrophy(LFH)and its correlation with clinical symptoms in patients with degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis(DLSS).Methods The clinical and imaging data of 79 patients with DLSS were collected.Patients were divided into four groups based on LFH severity.Quantitative parameters,including lumbar lordosis(LL),sacral slope(SS),facet tropism,facet joint effusion,intervertebral height index,dural sac cross-sectional area(CSA),epidural fat area,and fat infiltration rate(FIR)of the paraspinal muscle were measured on imaging.One-way analysis of variance was used to compare the differences in these parameters among groups.Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to identify the risk fac-tors for LFH,and the correlation between LFH severity and clinical manifestations was analyzed.Results The results of one-way analy-sis of variance showed that there were statistically significant differences among the four groups of patients in terms of sex,body mass index(BMI),LL,epidural fat area and FIR of the multifidus(MF).Multiple linear regression analysis identified that BMI,LL,and epidural fat area as independent risk factors for LFH.Correlation analysis indicated a weak positive association between LFH and dis-ease duration(r=-0.231,P=0.041).Conclusion In DLSS patients,LFH is weakly correlated with disease duration,while BMI,LL,and epidural fat area are risk factors for LFH.

Objective:To explore the protective effect and mechanism of irisin on liver injury and mitochondrial dysfunction of hepatocytes in mice with acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP).Methods:24 mice were randomly divided into the control group, the ANP group, the irisin group and the cilengitide group, with 6 mice in each group. The ANP group was prepared by intraperitoneal injection of 20% L-arginine. The irisin group was injected with 250 μg/kg of irisin intraperitoneally on the basis of the induction of ANP. The cilengitide group was injected with the integrin receptor αVβ3/5 inhibitor cilengitide at 20 mg/kg on the basis of the treatment of the irisin group. The control group was injected with 0.9% normal saline instead of L-arginine. Routine liver histopathological examination and scoring were performed; immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the level of neutrophil infiltration in liver tissue; the ultrastructure changes of mitochondria were observed under transmission electron microscopy; biochemistry was used to detect the ATP content in liver tissue to reflect the changes in mitochondrial function; the total antioxidant capacity of liver tissue was detected by the ferric reducing/antioxidant power (FRAP) method; the DHE fluorescence probe labeling method was used to detect the accumulation degree of oxygen free radicals in liver tissue.Results:The livers of the control group showed no obvious abnormalities. However, the ANP group, the irisin group and the cilengitide group all had liver tissue damage and infiltration of inflammatory cells in the mice. Compared with the ANP group, the liver pathological score, the number of neutrophil infiltration, and the DHE fluorescence staining density in the irisin group were significantly lower [(3.40±0.72) vs (7.26±1.01) points, (14.67±2.51) vs (33.33±3.51) cells, (16.33±5.03) vs (50.33±10.69) cells], while the above indicators in the cilengitide group were all increased [(7.06±1.55) points, (40.33±5.03) cells, (51.00±12.8) cells]; the ATP content [(296.04±64.6), (54.77±18.05), (109.50±56.61), (40.29±11.68) μmol/gprot], and the antioxidant capacity [(0.19±0.01), (0.10±0.01), (0.17±0.02), (0.11±0.01) mmol/g] in the control group, ANP group, irisin group and cilengitide group changed accordingly. The above differences were statistically significant (all P value <0.05). Transmission electron microscopy observation revealed that the abnormal mitophagy of liver cells in the irisin group restored to normal, while the mitophagy abnormality in the cilengitide group was exacerbated. Conclusions:Irisin could improve the disordered mitochondrial function and oxidative stress in liver cells by acting on integrin receptors αVβ3/5, thereby alleviating liver damage and inflammatory responses in ANP mice.

Objective:To evaluate the therapeutic effect of ultrasound-guided microwave ablation (MWA) in the treatment of breast cancer liver metastases (BCLM), and to select the beneficiaries.Methods:A retrospective study was performed in 63 patients with BCLM who underwent ultrasound-guided microwave ablation in Department of Interventional Ultrasound, the Fifth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital, and had detailed follow-up data from February 2010 to October 2022. General patient data and laboratory results were collected. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to determine the independent influencing factors for prognosis in patients with BCLM. A nomogram model was established to predict the survival rates of patients after operation.Calibration curve and decision curve were plotted to evaluate the calibration degree and the clinical benefit of the model, respectively. Time-dependent ROC curve was plotted to evaluate the predicting ability of the model. All patients were divided into high-risk group and low-risk group according to prognostic index. Survival curves were plotted to compare differences in survival between the two groups.Results:Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that tumor burden score(TBS) and the presence of extrahepatic metastasis before MWA were independent influencing factors for prognosis of BCLM(all P<0.001). The combined prediction model was established based on TBS, extrahepatic metastasis and axillary nodal metastases. The areas under the 1-year, 2-year and 3-year ROC curves were 0.849, 0.855 and 0.878, respectively, suggesting that the model had good predicting ability. The calibration curve showed that the model had good calibration degree, while the decision curve showed that the model had good clinical practicability. The median survival time between the two groups was statistically significant[13.5 (9, 20) months vs 63.0 (39, 140) months, P<0.001]. Conclusions:Low-risk patients with BCLM gain significant clinical benefits after microwave ablation treatment, while high-risk patients do not exhibit a noticeable survival advantage.
