Pulmonary complications after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are important sources of morbidity and mortality. Improvements in infection-related complications have made noninfectious pulmonary complications an increasingly significant driver of transplantation-related mortality. Broadly, these complications can be characterized as either early or late complications, with idiopathic pneumonia syndrome and bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome the most prevalent early and late complications, respectively. Outcomes with historical treatment consisting mainly of corticosteroids are often poor, highlighting the need for a deeper understanding of these complications' underlying disease biology to guide the adoption of novel therapies that are being increasingly used in the modern era.

A prediction study on the occurrence risk of heart disease in older hypertensive patients based on machine learning.

BMC Geriatr

January 2025

Department of Cardiology, The Second Hospital & Clinical Medical School, Lanzhou University, No. 82 Cuiyingmen, Lanzhou, 730000, China.

Objective: Constructing a predictive model for the occurrence of heart disease in elderly hypertensive individuals, aiming to provide early risk identification.

Methods: A total of 934 participants aged 60 and above from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study with a 7-year follow-up (2011-2018) were included. Machine learning methods (logistic regression, XGBoost, DNN) were employed to build a model predicting heart disease risk in hypertensive patients.

Background: Thoracic aortic endovascular repair (TEVAR) is the most commonly employed method for treating type B aortic dissection (TBAD). One of the primary challenges in TEVAR is the reconstruction of the left subclavian artery (LSA). Various revascularization strategies have been utilized, including branch stent techniques, fenestration techniques, chimney techniques, and hybrid techniques.

Remote photobiomodulation ameliorates behavioral and neuropathological outcomes in a rat model of repeated closed head injury.

Transl Psychiatry

January 2025

Laboratory of Exercise and Neurobiology, School of Physical Education and Sports Science, South China Normal University, Guangzhou, 510006, Guangdong, China.

Repeated closed-head injuries (rCHI) from activities like contact sports, falls, military combat, and traffic accidents pose a serious risk due to their cumulative impact on the brain. Often, rCHI is not diagnosed until symptoms of irreversible brain damage appear, highlighting the need for preventive measures. This study assessed the prophylactic efficacy of remote photobiomodulation (PBM) targeted at the lungs against rCHI-induced brain injury and associated behavioral deficits.
