Article Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the bidirectional and dynamic relationships between Social Isolation (SI) and frailty among older adults in China.
Methods: Using data from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS), this study utilized a Generalized Cross-Lagged Model (GCLM) to examine the temporal interrelationships between SI and frailty among individuals aged 65 years and older.
Results: The findings revealed significant bidirectional associations between SI and frailty among older adults in China. The GCLM identified strong temporal dynamics in the relationships between SI and frailty, with both effects increasing and showing a "cumulative disadvantage" effect as older adults aged.
Conclusion: This study underscores the significance of tailored interventions aimed at mitigating both SI and frailty among older adults in China, thus addressing the bidirectional impact. The findings emphasize the necessity for early intervention strategies to counteract the cumulative disadvantages associated with SI and frailty in later-life outcomes.

Maintaining a healthy pool of circulating red blood cells (RBCs) is essential for adequate perfusion, as even minor changes in the population can impair oxygen delivery, resulting in serious health complications including tissue ischemia and organ dysfunction. This responsibility largely falls to specialized macrophages in the spleen, known as red pulp macrophages, which efficiently take up and recycle damaged RBCs. However, questions remain regarding how these macrophages are acutely activated to accommodate increased demand.

Patient age might influence donor selection priorities in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT), due to the differences in donor age, organ function, and resistance to graft-versus-host disease between younger and older patients. We compared the transplant outcomes among human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched related donors (M-RDs, n=4,106), HLA 1-antigen-mismatched related donors (1MM-RDs, n=592), HLA 2-3-antigen-mismatched related donors (23MM-RDs, n=882), HLA-matched unrelated donors (M-UDs, n=3,927), HLA 1-locus-mismatched unrelated donors (1MM-UDs, n=2,474), and unrelated cord blood units (U-CBs, n=5,867) between patients aged.

Background: The association between season of screening blood pressure (BP) measurement and adverse outcomes has not been examined among populations without prior physician-diagnosed hypertension. We aimed to investigate the association between the season of screening clinic BP measurement and the risk of all-cause mortality.
Methods: This was a prospective cohort study, and data were analyzed from an ongoing community hypertension screening program in Shanghai between 2018 and 2024.

Objectives: Acute pyelonephritis (APN) is a common diagnosis among patients presenting to the Emergency Department (ED). It is treated by empiric antibiotics within the ED. With a rise in antimicrobial resistance globally, it is unknown whether patients are being managed with empiric antibiotics that are appropriate for the causative organisms of APN.

Reliably defining the risk of adverse in-flight events in aeromedical trauma patients could enable more informed pre-departure treatment and guide central asset allocation to achieve better system-level outcomes. Unfortunately, the current literature base specifically examining the in-flight period is sparse. Flight duration is often considered a proxy for the risk of in-flight deterioration; however, there is limited data to support this commonly held assumption.
