ObjectiveTo Explore the clinical value of metagenomic second-generation sequencing technology (mNGS) in the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary infections after kidney transplantation, and to provide reference for precise diagnosis and treatment of diseases. MethodsThe clinical data of 124 kidneytransplant recipients with pulmonary infections were completed from the Department of Transplantation of the People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from January 1,2020 to December 15,2023. According to the pathogen detection method of mNGS, the patients were divided into sequencing group (60 cases) and traditional group (64 cases). The pathogen detection rate, antibiotic use intensity, hospitalization time, hospitalization cost, non-invasive respiratory support rate, disease grade, severe illness rate, mortality rate, and other indicators were retrospectively analyzed between traditional group and sequencing group. ResultsThere was no statistically significant difference in gender, age,postoperative onset time, underlying disease, admission status of pulmonary infection (SMART-COP score), pre-treatment creatinine, tacrolimus concentration, and methylprednisolone regimen between the two groups of patients (P>0.05). The detection of pathogens and mixed pulmonary infections in the sequencing group was significantly higher than that in the traditional group (P < 0.05). However, there was no statistically significant difference in the results of traditional detection methods between the two groups (P>0.05). There was statistically significant difference in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid pathogens, mixed lung infections, pneumocystis jejun between the mNGS and culture + smear methods (P<0.05). One adverse reaction occurred in the sequencing group, with no complications related to bronchoscopy, and two adverse reactions occurred in the traditional group. In the sequencing group, the intensity of antibiotic use, mortality,peak pulmonary infection progression, discharge creatinine, length of hospital stay, and hospitalization costs were significantly lower than those of the traditional group (P < 0.05), and the non-invasive respiratory support for patients and critically ill patients were similar to the traditional group (P>0.05). ConclusionmNGS can provide precise directions for the diagnosis and treatment of kidney transplant recipients with pulmonary infections, it improves patient clinical prognosis, and is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To explore the effect and preliminary mechanism of plant extract ursolic acid(UA)inreducing hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury(HIRI). Methods C57 male mice were divided into sham operation group,sham operation +UA group,HIRI group,HIRI low-dose group and HIRI high-dose group. The analysis and validationwere carried out by methods such as animal experiments,network pharmacology and molecular biology. Results Animal experiments showed that UA significantly reduced the activities of AST and ALT in serum of HIRI mice. Target genescorresponding to HIRI and ursolic acid were obtained by TCMSP,Pharm Mapper,Swiss Target Prediction,GeneCards and other databases,and key target genes were obtained by DAVID,STRING and Cytoscape. They were PPARG (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma,PPARG),

MAPK3(mitogen-activated protein kinase 3,MAPK3 and PTGS2(prostaglandin G/H synthase 2,PTGS2). Finally,PTGS2 was identified as the hub target gene in this study according to the molecular docking score and the number of hydrogen bonds binding between receptor and ligand. Compared with Sham operation group,PTGS2 was highly expressed in HIRI group(P 0.01). Compared with HIRI group,the expression of PTGS2 in HIRI + LUA and HIRI + HUA groups was significantly decreased (P < 0.01). Conclusion UA can regulate the protective effect of PTGS2 on hepatic ischemia reperfusion injuryin mice. Thisstudy providesa reference for clinical development of new drugsto interveneHIRI.

Objective Post-renal transplantation anemia(PTA)occurs frequently in kidney transplant recipients,significantly impacting their quality of life and graft loss. Currently,effective methods to predictthe risk of persistent PTA early post-transplantation are lacking. This study aimed to develop a nomogram prediction model for early persistent PTA specifically tailored to kidney transplant recipients. Methods Using the electronic medical record system of Southern Hospital of Southern Medical University,patient data from January 1,2020 to December 31,2022 were obtained,and 245 subjects were ultimately selected as the research subjects. Among these,85% were randomly selected as the training set for model development,and the remaining 15% constituted the testing set. Using the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator(Lasso)regression model,variables potentially affecting early persistent PTA were screened to identify predictive factors.A logistic regression analysis was employed to establish the prediction model. Model performance was assessed using Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves,area under the curve(AUC),Calibration plots,and decision Curve Analysis(DCA). Results Identified predictive factors after screening included recipient's preoperative body mass index,preoperative serum albumin level,preoperative hemoglobin level,preoperative mean corpuscular volume,perioperative use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers,exogenous iron supplementation,and exogenous erythropoietin supplementation. The model demonstrated good discriminativeability with an AUC of 0.87 for the training set and 0.75 for the testing set,indicating robust predictive performance. Calibration and DCA further confirmed the accuracy and clinical utility of the model. Conclusion This nomogram prediction model utilizes early recipient information,including demographic characteristics,laboratory data,and medication regimens,to accurately predict individualized risk of early persistent PTA in kidney transplant recipients. This provides a basis for early clinical intervention,potentially improving patient prognosis and quality of life.

Objective To investigate the immunosuppressive effect of capecitabine(CAP)at different doses in rats and to explore its potential as an immunosuppressant. Methods Eighteen male BN rats were randomly divided into the control group(CON group),CAP low-dose group(metronomic chemotherapy,MET group),and CAP high-dose group(most tolerance dose,MTD group). Three groups were administered with 1.2ml saline, 45 mg / kg and 200 mg / kg CAP by gastric gavage,respectively,the administration was performed twice per day and lasted for 21 days. The rat body weight was measured and 3 ml of venous blood was collected before administration and on the 7th,14th,and 21th day of administration. The total number of lymphocytes,T lymphocytes,CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes in peripheral blood were measured by flow cytometry,and the concentrations of IL-2 and IFN-γ were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Statistical analysis was performed on the changes of body weight,total lymphocyte count,T lymphocyte count,CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocyte count,the level of IL-2 ,IFN-γ and their correlations in the three groups. Results All the rats in the three groups survived and gained weight gradually after 21 days of feeding. The weight gain of the MET group and MTD group was lower than that of the CON group,and the weight changes of the MTD group and the CON group were statistically significant at the 21th day 〔(214.17 ± 20.6)g vs.(235 ± 5.48)g,P < 0.05〕. The total lymphocyte count,T lymphocyte count,CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocyte count of MET group and MTD group decreased gradually. Compared with the CON group,the total lymphocyte count,T lymphocyte count,CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocyte count of the MET group and the MTD group were significantly decreased on the 21th days after administration(P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between the MET groups and MTD groups(P > 0.05). Compared with the CON group,the levels of serum IL-2 and IFN-γ in the MET group and MTD group gradually decreased on the 7 th,14 th,and 21 th days after administration (P < 0.05). The decrease of the total lymphocyte count,T lymphocyte count,CD4 + and CD8+ T lymphocyte count in MET group and MTD group were positively correlated with the decrease of serum IL-2 and IFN-γ concentrations (P < 0.05). Conclusion Capecitabine can reduce the lymphocyte count in peripheral blood and inhibit the secretion of IL-2 and IFN-γ in rats,thus exhibiting immunosuppressive effect. The T cell suppressive intensity is positively correlated with the drug dose. Capecitabine has potential application value as an anti-rejection drug after liver transplantation.

 Objective To elucidate the relationship between preoperative immunotherapy,the abundance of tertiary lymphoid structures(TLS)in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)tissues,and to evaluate patient prognosis following liver transplantation. Methods The clinical data of 149 liver transplant patients with liver cancer at Huashan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from January 2018 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Pathological slides of each patient were scored for TLS. Patients were categorized into four groups based on downstaging treatment outcomes :those initially meeting the Milan criteria(n = 35),those exceeding the Milan criteria without downstaging treatment(n = 38),successful downstaging cases(n = 33),and unsuccessful downstaging cases (n = 43). Kaplan-Meier analysis and the log-rank test were employed for survival analysis. The correlation betweenimmunotherapy and TLS abundance was assessed using non-parametric statistical methods. Results Survival analysis of the overall cohort revealed that patients with high intratumoral TLS abundance had significantly higher recurrence-free survival(RFS)than those with low TLS abundance(P < 0.05). Among patients receiving downstaging treatment,the recurrence risk in the successful downstaging group was significantly lower than in the unsuccessful group(P < 0.05). Non-parametric testing of the successful downstaging group demonstrated that preoperative immunotherapy significantly increased intratumoral TLS abundance(P < 0.05). Similarly,nonparametric testing of all patients receiving immunotherapy showed a statistically significant increase in intratumoral TLS abundance in the successful downstaging group(P < 0.05). Conclusion Successful downstaging withpreoperative immunotherapy improves the prognosis of HCC patients undergoing liver transplantation,potentially by enhancing intratumoral TLS abundance.

Objective To evaluate the effect of preoperative B-ultrasound-leaded transversus abdominisplane block(TAPB)or erector spinae plane block(ESPB)combining with patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA)on postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation. Methods Forty-five patients with modified piggy-back orthotopic livertransplantation were selected. The aged was 18 ~ 64 years old. The body mass index was 18 ~ 24 kg/m2,and the ASA grade was Ⅲ~Ⅴ . They were divided into 3 groups(n = 15):preoperative TAPB group,preoperative ESPB group and regular PCIA group(C group). In the TAPB group,after the induction of general anesthesia,ultrasound-guided two-step TAPB was performed under the bilateral costal approach. Each point was injected with a mixture drug 15 ml(0.33% ropivacaine 30 ml + dexamethasone 5 mg). In the ESPB group,after the induction of general anesthesia,ultrasound-guided bilateral TAPB was performed in T7. Each point was injected with a mixture drug 30 ml(0.33% ropivacaine 30 ml + dexamethasone 5 mg). Group C was a conventional general anesthesia group,no nerve block was performed. Sufentanil 2 μg/kg PCIA was used in every groups,and the visual analog scale score(VAS)was maintained ≤ 3 within 48 h after operation. Sufentanil 5 μg was intravenously injected as rescue analgesic. The intraoperative consumption of remifentanil and the requirement for sufentanil as rescue analgesic were recorded. The extubation time after operation and development of nausea,vomiting,itching and respiratory depression were recorded within 48 h after surgery. Results Compared with group C,the consumption of remifentanil and the requirement of sufentanil as rescue analgesic within 48 h after operation were both decreased in TAPB and ESPB groups. Also the time of extubation was shortened,and the adverse reactions were decrecing within two days after operation(P < 0.05). Compared with group TAPB,the consumption of remifentanil and the requirement of sufentanil as rescue analgesic within 48 h after operation were decreased in ESPB group. But there were no significant difference of the time of extubation and the adverse reactions between the two groups within 48 h after operation(P > 0.05). Conclusion Preoperative ultrasound-guided TAPB or ESPB combining with PCIA can both provide better efficacy of postoperative analgesia with fewer adverse reactions in patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation. Compared with TAPB,the consumption of postoperative intravenous analgesic is decelerated in ESPB.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of IgA nephropathy recurrence after kidney transplantation. Methods A total of 149 kidney failure patients with primary IgA nephropathy who received kidney transplantation at the Organ Transplantation Center of Zhengzhou People's Hospital from January 2008 to December 2019 were selected as the study subjects. According to the results of the protocol kidney biopsythe recipients were divided into the recurrent group40 casesand the non-recurrent group109 cases. Genderagedonor typedialysis durationprogression to end-stage renal diseaseESRD),history of transplantationhistoryof hypertension and diabeteshistory of postoperative infectionimmunosuppressive regimenHLA mismatchnumber,and risk factors for postoperative recurrence were recorded in the two groups. Results Compared withthe non-recurrent group,there were no statistically significant differences in gender,number of kidney transplants,diabetes,hypertension,immunosuppressive regimen,postoperative infection history,dialysis time between the two groups(P > 0.05). Logistic analysis showed that donor origin,recipient age and HLA mismatch were the risk factors for IgAN recurrence after renal transplantation,and the differences were statistically significant(All P < 0.05). Conclusion The recurrence of IgA nephropathy after kidney transplantation was related to the source of donor,recipient age and HLA mismatch. Intervention measures should be taken according to the above factors to provide ideas for clinical control of IgAN recurrence.
