OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety of tildrakizumab versus secukinumab in the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on 141 patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanyang Medical College from January 2024 to April 2025. According to the treatment regimen，the patients were divided into tildrakizumab g roup （ n ＝61） and secukinumab group （ n ＝80）. The PASI 75，PASI 90，and PASI 100 response rates， the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index （PASI） and Dermatology Life Quality Index （DLQI） scores， skin barrier function （sebum content and stratum corneum water content）， inflammatory factor levels [interleukin-17 （IL-17）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， and IL-23 ] before and after treatment， and the incidence of adverse drug reactions during treatment were compared between the two groups. RESULTS After 12 weeks of treatment， the PASI 75， PASI 90， and PASI 100 response rates in the tildrakizumab group were significantly higher than those in the secukinumab group （ P ＜0.05）. After treatment， PASI and DLQI scores as well as serum levels of IL-17， TNF-α， and IL-23 in both groups were significantly reduced compared to before treatment in the same group； sebum content and stratum corneum water content were significantly increased compared to before treatment in the same group （ P ＜0.05）； the tildrakizumab group showed better results than the secukinumab group （ P ＜0.05）. The overall incidence of adverse drug reactions was also significantly lower in the tildrakizumab group compared with the secukinumab group （ P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Compared with secukinumab， tildrakizumab demonstrates superior efficacy in the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis， providing improved symptom relief， enhanced skin barrier function， reduced levels of inflammatory factors， and higher safety.

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.

With the accelerating trend of population aging, the number of elderly patients with lung cancer continues to rise, and the disease burden is becoming increasingly heavy. The clinical management of these patients faces severe challenges due to their decreased physiological reserve, complex comorbidities, and significant individual heterogeneity. Consequently, under traditional diagnosis and treatment models, doctors often struggle to identify the individualized risks of elderly patients in a timely and comprehensive manner, which can easily lead to decision biases such as undertreatment or overtreatment. In view of this, this study advocates for the establishment of an umbrella decision-making model specifically tailored for elderly lung cancer patients. Grounded in a multidisciplinary team (MDT) platform, this model deeply integrates oncological indicators with the comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) system. By holistically considering multidimensional variables including tumor burden, organ function, frailty index, cognitive status, and social support, the model establishes an operational mechanism characterized by "single entry, precise stratification, and targeted selection". Accordingly, patients can be scientifically triaged into distinct intervention tiers, such as active surveillance, minimally invasive surgery, drug therapy, radiotherapy, and best supportive care, thereby achieving real-time alignment between treatment intensity and patient fitness. This article elaborates on the construction logic and key operational procedures of this novel decision-making framework, aiming to guide clinical practice beyond the limitations of a tumor-centric perspective toward a holistic, dynamic, whole-course management strategy. This transition seeks to ensure optimal quality of life and clinical net benefit for elderly patients alongside survival prolongation.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of apatinib combined with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in the treatment of malignant solid tumors. METHODS Randomized controlled trials （RCTs） on apatinib combined with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors （combination group） versus monotherapy （apatinib or PD-1/PD-L1）combined with （or） chemotherapy/other treatments （control group） in the treatment of malignant solid tumors were collected from PubMed， Web of Science， Embase， Cochrane Library， CNKI， VIP， Wanfang Data and China Biomedical Literature Database. The search time limit was from the establishment of the databases to May 2025. After literature screening， data extraction and literature quality evaluation， meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 and Stata 14.0. RESULTS A total of 28 RCTs involving 2 974 patients were included. The objective response rate [RR＝1.639， 95%CI（1.452，1.851）， P＜0.000 01]， disease control rate [RR＝1.284， 95%CI（1.178，1.399）， P＜0.000 01] and CD3+， CD4+， CD4+/CD8+ as well as the incidence of ADR such as hypertension， fatigue， proteinuria， thrombocytopenia were significantly higher in the combination group than control group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.000 01）. The progressive disease rate [RR＝ 0.497， 95%CI（0.437， 0.566）， P＜0.000 01] and serum tumor + marker levels and CD8 were significantly lower in the combination group than control group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.000 01）. Subgroup analysis results of different types of tumors showed that the objective response rate and disease control rate were significantly higher in the combination group than control group （P＜0.05）. The results of sensitivity analysis showed that the stability of this study was good. The results of publication bias analysis showed that there was a high possibility of publication bias in this study. CONCLUSIONS Apatinib combined with PD-1/ PD-L1 inhibitors has a significant efficacy in the treatment of different types of tumors， but attention should be paid to the occurrence of hypertension， fatigue， proteinuria and thrombocytopenia.

T7 RNA polymerase (T7 RNAP) is one of the simplest known RNA polymerases. Its unique structural features make it a critical model for studying the mechanisms of RNA synthesis. This review systematically examines the static crystal structure of T7 RNAP, beginning with an in-depth examination of its characteristic “thumb”, “palm”, and “finger” domains, which form the classic “right-hand-like” architecture. By detailing these structural elements, this review establishes a foundation for understanding the overall organization of T7 RNAP. This review systematically maps the functional roles of secondary structural elements and their subdomains in transcriptional catalysis, progressively elucidating the fundamental relationships between structure and function. Further, the intrinsic flexibility of T7 RNAP and its applications in research are also discussed. Additionally, the review presents the structural diagrams of the enzyme at different stages of the transcription process, and through these diagrams, it provides a detailed description of the complete transcription process of T7 RNAP. By integrating structural dynamics and kinetics analyses, the review constructs a comprehensive framework that bridges static structure to dynamic processes. Despite its advantages, T7 RNAP has a notable limitation: it generates double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) as a byproduct. The presence of dsRNA not only compromises the purity of mRNA products but also elicits nonspecific immune responses, which pose significant challenges for biotechnological and therapeutic applications. The review provides a detailed exploration of the mechanisms underlying dsRNA formation during T7 RNAP catalysis, reviews current strategies to mitigate this issue, and highlights recent progress in the field. A key focus is the semi-rational design of T7 RNAP mutants engineered to minimize dsRNA generation and enhance catalytic performance. Beyond its role in transcription, T7 RNAP exhibits rapid development and extensive application in fields, including gene editing, biosensing, and mRNA vaccines. This review systematically examines the structure-function relationships of T7 RNAP, elucidates the mechanisms of dsRNA formation, and discusses engineering strategies to optimize its performance. It further explores the engineering optimization and functional expansion of T7 RNAP. Furthermore, this review also addresses the pressing issues that currently need resolution, discusses the major challenges in the practical application of T7 RNAP, and provides an outlook on potential future research directions. In summary, this review provides a comprehensive analysis of T7 RNAP, ranging from its structural architecture to cutting-edge applications. We systematically examine: (1) the characteristic right-hand domains (thumb, palm, fingers) that define its minimalistic structure; (2) the structure-function relationships underlying transcriptional catalysis; and (3) the dynamic transitions during the complete transcription cycle. While highlighting T7 RNAP’s versatility in gene editing, biosensing, and mRNA vaccine production, we critically address its major limitation—dsRNA byproduct formation—and evaluate engineering solutions including semi-rationally designed mutants. By synthesizing current knowledge and identifying key challenges, this work aims to provide novel insights for the development and application of T7 RNAP and to foster further thought and progress in related fields.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs(NSAIDs),commonly utilized analgesics,are extensively employed for managing pain associated with musculoskeletal disorders or injuries.Recent clinical studies have demonstrated a heightened risk of bone stress injuries(BSI)in soldiers and athletes,particularly during high-intensity training,due to NSAID usage.Furthermore,the impact of NSAIDs on fracture healing is well-documented;however,the precise mechanism by which their use during training contributes to an increased incidence of stress bone injuries remains unclear.This article aims to summarize potential mechanisms through an extensive review of domestic and international literature in order to standardize the utilization and clinical management of NSAIDs,optimize pain management strategies,and prevent stress bone injuries or fractures in specific populations such as soldiers and elite athletes.

Objective To compare the hemodynamic effects of anesthesia induction with remimazolam tosylate and etomidate in elderly frail patients.Methods This study was a single-center,prospective,randomized,single-blind trial.From January to April 2024,96 elderly frail patients undergoing elective surgery in Fuyang People's Hospital were recruited.After excluding 6 cases(3 refused to participate,1 had tracheal intubation time＞30 s,and 2 had missing data),90 patients were finally included.They were randomly divided into remimazolam tosylate group(intravenous injection of 0.2 mg/kg remimazolam tosylate for anesthesia induction,n=45)and etomidate group(intravenous injection of 0.3 mg/kg etomidate for anesthesia induction,n=45)by the random number table method.The area under the curve for mean arterial pressure(MAP)below or above baseline values(AUCMAP-and AUCMAP+),the heart rate(HR)below or above baseline values by 10％(AUCHR-and AUCHR+)within 10 minutes of anesthesia induction,the time to loss of consciousness,the time from the start of anesthesia induction to a bispectral index(BIS)＜60,the incidence of drug-related adverse reactions,the incidence of cardiovascular adverse events,and the usage of vasoactive drug administrations were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the etomidate group,the AUCMAP-(145.10±35.75 vs.178.52±39.78)and AUCHR-[43.20(26.58,56.35)vs.54.99(43.01,65.85)]in remimazolam tosylate group were significantly reduced(P＜0.001,P=0.001).The time to loss of consciousness and the time from the start of anesthesia induction to BIS＜60 were prolonged(P＜0.001).The incidence of drug-related adverse reactions was significantly decreased(P＜0.05),and the number of norepinephrine administrations was significantly reduced(P＜0.05)in remimazolam tosylate group.However,there were no statistically significant differences in AUCMAP+,AUCHR+,the incidence of cardiovascular adverse events,and the usages of atropine,urapidil,and esmolol between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion The use of remimazolam tosylate during anesthesia induction in elderly frail patients can provide more stable hemodynamic parameters and results in fewer adverse reactions than etomidate.

Objective To investigate the effects of peripheral blood neutrophil infiltration on the polarization regulation of cerebral resident microglia under a permanent ischemic stroke model.Methods Fifty-eight C57BL/6 mice were divided into two groups.One group was sham group,and the other group of mice was subjected to permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion surgery.Mice were euthanized 48 hours,7 days,14 days,and 30 days after surgery for tissue collection.Western blotting was used to detect expression levels of M1 microglia markers CD 16,M2 microglia marker arginase 1(Arg1),inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 β(IL-1β),and neutrophil marker myeloperoxidase(MPO)in brain tissue.Immunofluorescence histochemical staining was used to assess neutrophil infiltration and M2 microglial distribution around the infarct area in brain sections.In vitro,purified neutrophils were co-cultured with BV2 microglial cells.After lipopolysaccharide stimulation,the phagocytosis of neutrophils by BV2 cells was observed,and the expression levels of CD16 and Arg1 proteins in BV2 cells were detected.Results Western blotting showed that the levels of CD16(P＜0.05),IL-1β(P＜0.001),and MPO(P＜0.05)in brain tissue increased significantly 48 hours and 7 days after surgery,then decreased,with MPO expression returning to normal levels 30 days after surgery.Immunofluorescence showed a significant increase of MPO-positive cells around the infarct area of the mouse cerebral cortex 48 hours after surgery(P＜0.001),followed by a decrease(P＜0.05).The number of ionized calcium binding adapter molecule 1(Iba1)and MPO double-positive cells gradually increased after surgery,and reached their peak at 14 days(P＜0.05).Iba1 and Arg1 double-positive cells also increased significantly 7 days(P＜0.05)and 14 days(P＜0.01)after surgery.In vitro,co-culture experiments showed that after BV2 phagocytosing neutrophils,CD 16(P＜0.05)significantly decreased and Arg1 significantly upregulated(P＜0.05).Conclusion In a permanent ischemic stroke model,microglia transition from M1 to M2 type after phagocytosing neutrophils,and the injured brain area changes from pro-inflammatory state to anti-inflammatory state.

Objective To explore the spatiotemporal expression patterns of Patched 1(Ptch1)and insulin enhancer binding protein-1(Isl 1)in mouse embryonic foregut and their relationship with the early development of trachea-main bronchus.Methods The foregut of 60 mouse embryos at E9.5-12.5 was separated for the detection of Isl1 and sonic hedgehog(Shh)protein by Western blotting.Serial paraffin sections of 6 mouse embryos at E9.5-14.5 were taken for immunohistochemical staining and immunofluorescence double staining with Isl1,Ptch1,forkhead box protein A2(Foxa2),type Ⅱ collagen α1 chain(Col2a1)and α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA),as well as HE staining and Masson staining.Results The expression trend of Isl1 and Shh in foregut endoderm at E9.5-12.5 was similar,and the peak of Shh expression was later than Isl1.The foregut developed into the trachea at E9.5-12.5,Ptch1 was expressed in the thickening and protrusion of the respiratory endoderm,the laryngal-tracheal groove and the solid cell cord,accompanied by the increase and aggregation of Isl1-positive mesenchymal cells,forming a characteristic pyramidal structure centered on the respiratory endoderm and the solid cell cord;The main bronchus appeared at E12.5-13.5,Ptch1 was only expressed in its lateral wall,accompanied by the accumulation of Isl1-positive mesenchymal cells;The trachea-main bronchial epithelium lost Ptch1 expression and the surrounding Isl 1-positive mesenchymal cells also decreased rapidly at E13.5-14.5.Co12a1-positive chondrocytes first appeared in the Isl1-positive mesenchymal area adjacent to the Ptch1-positive epithelium at E12.5;Col2a1-positive cartilage was nested within the Isl1-positive mesenchymic area in a"C"shape and expanded in a proximal-distal pattern at E12.5-13.5;Col2a1-positive cartilage extended to the dorsal trachea beyond the Isl1-positive mesenchyma and encircles α-SMA positive smooth muscle in a circular manner at E14.5.Conclusion The expression of Ptch1 in the foregut endoderm is involved in the development and morphogenesis of the trachea-main bronchus epithelium,and is closely related to the proliferation and aggregation of Isl1-positive mesenchyme in the trachea-main bronchial wall,Subsequently,they jointly determine the time,location and extent of airway cartilage.

Objective: To investigate the association between habitual reading/writing postures and the co-occurrence of common health conditions (overweight/obesity, visual impairment, hypertension, and scoliosis) and comorbidities among children and adolescents, in order to provide data support for the joint prevention of common diseases and comorbidities among children and adolescents. Methods: From September 2021 to June 2022, a multi-stage cluster random sampling method was used to select a total of 4 577 children and adolescents from 16 primary and secondary schools in Ningxia: Jinfeng District of Yinchuan City, Shapotou District of Zhongwei City, Yanchi County of Wuzhong City, and Pingluo County of Shizuishan City. A weighted complex sampling design was used to investigate the association of habitual reading and writing postures with common comorbidities in children and adolescents. Results: The prevalence rates of common diseases among children and adolescents in Ningxia were as follows: overweight/obesity was 22.87%, visual impairment was 62.52%, scoliosis was 2.30%, and hypertension was 1.30%. The prevalence of multimorbidity (co-occurrence of ≥2 conditions) among Ningxia children and adolescents was 15.95%. Multivariate unconditional Logistic regression analysis showed that frequent/always collapsing waist and sitting forward with head lowered increased the risk of common comorbidities in children and adolescents ( OR =1.90, P <0.05). Compared with the corresponding reference group, male children and adolescents aged 9 to 12 years and boys had relatively lower risks of overweight/obesity ( OR =0.71, 0.70); the risk of poor vision among children and adolescents aged 9 to 12 years, male, and urban was relatively low ( OR =0.59, 0.60, 0.73)( P < 0.05 ). Children and adolescents who often/always sat leaning to the left or right were at higher risk of poor vision ( OR =1.78); urban children and adolescents had a higher risk of developing scoliosis ( OR =3.71); children and adolescents aged 9 to 12 had a relatively low risk of developing hypertension ( OR =0.09), and children and adolescents who often/always bent their backs and sat forward on their knees had a higher risk of hypertension ( OR =5.03)( P <0.05). Conclusions Ningxia has a high incidence of common diseases and multiple diseases among children and adolescents, frequent or always collapsing waist and sitting forward with head lowered is associated with common comorbidities in children and adolescents in Ningxia. Proper postural measures for reading and writing should be carried out as soon as possible to encourage children and adolescents to develop good reading and writing habits for effectively preventing and controlling the occurrence of common diseases.
