INFECTION AFTER SOLID-ORGAN-TRANSPLANTATION. Infections is one the most cause for hospitalization after solid-organ-transplantation. We distinguish donor-derived infections, reactivation of latent infection in recipients, nosocomial infections and community infections. The first three types are observed mainly in the early period post-transplantation, while community infections can occur at any time after transplantation. Opportunistic infections and some specific infections should be assessed systematically and rapidly. This often requires invasive diagnostic procedures. Prevention altered the incidence and severity of post-transplant infections. It included vaccination, use of universal prophylaxis, systematic monitoring of some agents after transplantation and safer living.

Background And Aim: In recent years, there has been a rise in cryptogenic hepatocellular carcinoma (c-HCC) cases in Japan, posing a detection challenge due to an unknown etiology. This study aims to enhance diagnostic strategies for c-HCC by analyzing its characteristics and exploring current opportunities for detection.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted from April 2012 to March 2022, enrolling 372 newly diagnosed hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients.

Severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID), characterized by profound immune system dysfunction, can lead to life-threatening infections and death. Animal models play a pivotal role in elucidating biological processes and advancing therapeutic strategies. Recent advances in gene-editing technologies, including zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs), transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), CRISPR/Cas9, and base editing, have significantly enhanced the generation of SCID models.
