Article Abstract

Objective: To explore the effect of infusing G-CSF mobilized recipient spleen cells at different time after haploidentical stem cell transplantation(HSCT) on graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in mice and its possible mechanism.

Methods: Forty mice after HSCT were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=10): GVHD positive control group (control group), 1st d recipient cell infusion group after transplantation (+1 d group), 4th d recipient cell infusion group after transplantation(+4 d group), 7th d recipient cell infusion group after transplantation(+7 d group). The mice in control group were injected the normal saline of same equivalent with experimental group which were given the same amount of G-CSF-mobilized recipient spleen cells. The general manifestation and pathological change of GVHD were observed. The expression changes of CD3CD4, CD3CD8 cell subsets and FasL in peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry.

Results: The incidence of GVHD was significantly decreased in +4 d group and the median survival time was longer than 60 days, which was significantly higher than that of control group (24 d), +1 d group (21 d), +7 d group (28 d). (P<0.01, P<0.01, P<0.01). The Fasl expression of peripheral blood T lymphocytes in +4 d group were significantly lower than that in the other 3 groups(P<0.05).

Conclusion: The +4 d infusion of G-CSF mobilized recipient spleen cells on 4th day after haploidentical HSC transplantation can inhibit the expression of FasL in donor T lymphocytes, and significantly reduce the incidence of GVHD.

Background: Experience with icodextrin use in children on long-term peritoneal dialysis is limited. We describe international icodextrin prescription practices and their impact on clinical outcomes: ultrafiltration, blood pressure control, residual kidney function (RKF), technique and patient survival.

Methods: We included patients under 21 years enrolled in the International Pediatric Peritoneal Dialysis Network (IPPN) between 2007 and 2024, on automated PD with a daytime dwell.

Increased adiposity and chronic psychosocial stress (CPS) are plausible modifiable contributors of the recent increase in early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC). We conducted an 8-week randomized controlled pilot trial evaluating the feasibility and acceptability of time restricted eating (TRE) (daily ad libitum eating between 12-8pm) and Mindfulness ("Mindfulness for Beginners" course from the Calm app) among young adults. Participants were randomized to the following groups: TRE ( = 10); Mindfulness ( = 11); TRE & Mindfulness ( = 11); or Control ( = 11).

Minoritized racial, ethnic, sexual, and gender communities and populations face profound health disparities and their engagement in research remains low. In a randomized controlled trial, our community-based participatory research partnership tested the efficacy of ChiCAS, an HIV prevention intervention designed to increase pre-exposure prophylaxis use among Spanish-speaking transgender Latinas. Of 161 eligible Spanish-speaking transgender Latinas screened, we enrolled 144, achieving an 89% participation rate, and retained 94% at 6-month follow-up.

Misophonia is a condition characterized by intense negative emotional reactions to trigger sounds and related stimuli. In this study, adult listeners (N = 15) with a self-reported history of misophonia symptoms and a control group without misophonia (N = 15) completed listening judgements of recorded misophonia trigger stimuli using a standard scale. Participants also completed an established questionnaire of misophonia symptoms, the Misophonia Questionnaire (MQ).
