Objective To systematically review international research on health communication, and to provide valuable insights and reference for China's health communication research and practice. Methods This study included 693 articles published from January 2023 to April 2024 in two authoritative academic journals in the field of health communication, ^“Health Communication^” and the ^“Journal of Health Communication^”. A systematic review was conducted on the themes, theoretical foundations, research methods, and populations of international health communication research. Results The findings in this study revealed that international health communication research topics were diverse, with hotspots including social media, health information behavior, health misinformation, stigmatization, trust, and risk perception. The results showed that 34% of the articles were based on theoretical foundations, and 93.3% employed research methods, focusing on adolescents, parents, women, and other key populations. Conclusion Domestic health communication research can expand its perspective from ^“information transmission^” to ^“social interaction^”, innovate theories and methods from ^“single paradigm" to ^“multi-integration^” and shift focus from a ^“mass perspective^” to ^“targeted care^” for the health of all populations. Domestic health communication practice can delve into the localization of social media health communication practices, the comprehensive management of health misinformation, and the critical application of new technologies.

Objective To investigate the distribution of TCR Vβ genealogy and clonal expansion in peripheral blood after infusing mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) in patients with chronic GVHD. Methods The complementarity determining region 3 (CDR3) of 24 TCR Vβ subfamily genes in peripheral blood mononuclear cell from 1 case with cGVHD after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT),who were treated with infusing MSC,were amplified using RT-PCR. The blood samples were taken at the first and the fifth day after 1st infusion; and the first day,the 10 th day and the 20 th day after the second infusion of MSC,as well as the MSC infused as control . The products were labelled by fluorescein and then analyzed the CDR3 size with gene scan technique to determine the clonality of T cells. Results There were no expression of TCR Vβ subfamily with the MSC infused and after the 1st day of the first infusion of MSC. Then 3,10,14,10 Vβ subfamilies clones are appeared at the other time points,of which were polyclone and oligoclone predominately. In the same time,the manifestations of cCVHD have been abated. Conclusion MSC played a certain role in reviving the immune function of the patients after Allo-HSCT and mitigating the disease of chronic GVHD. Lineage analysis of TCR Vβ subfamily showed some predominant expression.
