Development of a coupled model to simulate and assess arsenic contamination and impact factors in the Jinsha River Basin, China.

With the increasing severity of arsenic (As) pollution, quantifying the environmental behavior of pollutant based on numerical model has become an important approach to determine the potential impacts and finalize the precise control strategies. Taking the industrial-intensive Jinsha River Basin as typical area, a two-dimensional hydrodynamic water quality model coupled with Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model was developed to accurately simulate the watershed-scale distribution and transport of As in the terrestrial and aquatic environment at high spatial and temporal resolution. The effects of hydro-climate change, hydropower station construction and non-point source emissions on As were quantified based on the coupled model. The result indicated that higher As concentration areas mainly centralized in urban districts and concentration slowly decreased from upstream to downstream. Due to the enhanced rainfall, the As concentration was significantly higher during the rainy season than the dry season. Hydro-climate change and the construction of hydropower station not only affected the dissolved As concentration, but also affected the adsorption and desorption of As in sediment. Furthermore, As concentration increased with the input of non-point source pollution, with the maximum increase about 30%, resulting that non-point sources contributed important pollutant impacts to waterways. The coupled model used in pollutant behavior analysis is general with high potential application to predict and mitigate water pollution.

Exposure of individuals aged 18-44 years to personal care products in Beijing, China: Exposure profiles, possible influencing factors, and risk assessment.

Personal care products (PCPs) are a class of emerging pollutants that have attracted public concern owing to their harmful effects on humans and the environment. Biomonitoring data is valuable for insight the levels of PCPs in the human body and can be crucial for identifying potential health hazards. To gain a better understanding of timely exposure profiles and health risk of reproductive-age population to PCPs, we determined six parabens, six benzophenone-type ultraviolet filters, and three disinfectants in 256 urine samples collected from young adults aged 18-44 years in Beijing, China. The urinary levels of benzophenone-3 (BP-3) and 4-hydroxybenzophenone (4-OHBP) were significantly higher in summer compared to winter, suggesting these compounds have different seasonal usage patterns. Moreover, the total concentration of 15 PCPs in female was 430 ng/mL, approximately two times higher than that in male. P­chloro-m-xylenol (PCMX), as a new type of antibacterial agent, has the greatest level among all target analytes, indicating the increasingly use of this antibacterial alternative recently. Five potential influencing factors that lead to the elevated exposure level of PCPs were identified. Over 19% of the target population had a high hazard index value (greater than 1) which was attributed to exposure to propyl paraben (PrP), benzophenone-1 (BP-1), BP-3 and PCMX, indicating that PCPs may pose a relatively high exposure risk at environmental levels that should be a cause for concern.

Discovery of Novel Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-Based HDAC6 Inhibitors as an Anticarcinogen with a Cardioprotective Effect.

Cardiotoxicity associated with chemotherapy has gradually become the major cause of death in cancer patients. The development of bifunctional drugs with both cardioprotective and antitumor effects has become the future direction. HDAC6 plays important roles in the progression, treatment, and prognosis of cancer and cardiovascular diseases, but bifunctional inhibitors have not been reported. Herein, structure-activity relationship studies driven by pharmacophore-based remodification and fragment-based design were performed to yield highly potent HDAC6 inhibitor I-c4 containing imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine. Importantly, I-c4 effectively suppressed the growth of MGC-803 xenografts in vitro and in vivo by inhibiting the deacetylation pathway without causing myocardial damage after long-term administration. Meanwhile, I-c4 could mitigate severe myocardial damage against H2O2 or myocardial ischemia/reperfusion in vitro and in vivo. Further studies revealed that the cardioprotective effect of I-c4 was associated with reduction of inflammatory cytokines. Taken together, I-c4 may represent a novel lead compound for further development of an anticarcinogen with a cardioprotective effect.

CuBr2-mediated dehydrogenative [4+2] annulation of 1-naphthyl-1,3-indandiones and alkenes.

Intermolecular annulation reactions of 1-naphthyl-1,3-indandiones with alkenes proceed efficiently in the presence of a copper catalyst to generate spirocarbocycle compounds. Various spirocyclic molecules bearing an all-carbon quaternary center could be obtained by this novel method with good yields, excellent regioselectivity, and good functional group tolerance. A radical mechanism is proposed based on the HRMS analysis results of control experiments.

Clinical Study on the treatment of chronic infectious ulcers using Platelet-Rich technology combined with moist dressings.

Objective: To explore the clinical efficacy of platelet-rich technology combined with moist dressings in the treatment of chronic infectious ulcers. Methods: This was a retrospective study. The subjects of the study were 48 patients with chronic infectious ulcers in Sichuan Provincial Orthopedics Hospital from January 2019 to June 2022. Enrolled patients were randomly divided into four groups(n=12), and received different treatment methods respectively. Further analysis and comparison were performed on the changes in wound volume, wound healing status, wound bacterial culture results, and the incidence of adverse reactions among the four groups. Results: Three months after debridement, the wound volume of all four groups of patients was significantly reduced compared with that before debridement, with a statistically significant difference in intra-Group-Comparison(P<0.05). The inter-Group-Comparison revealed a statistically significant difference in wound volume in Group-A, Group-B, and Group-C than that in Group-D(P<0.05). After treatment, the wound healing status of patients in groups A, B, and C was significantly better than that of patients in Group-D, with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05). During treatment, patients in all four groups had decreased count of would bacteria, and showed negative results of wound bacterial culture by the three-month follow-up. No serious adverse reactions were observed in the four groups during treatment, and all improved after management, with no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions(P>0.05). Conclusion: Platelet-rich technology combined with moist dressings may effectively promote the repair of chronic infectious ulcer wounds, with good clinical safety.

The role of HnrnpF/H as a driver of oligoteratozoospermia.

Male subfertility or infertility is a common condition often characterized by men producing a low number of sperm with poor quality. To gain insight into this condition, we performed a quantitative proteomic analysis of semen samples obtained from infertile and fertile men. At least 6 proteins showed significant differences in regulation of alternatively spliced isoforms. To investigate this link between aberrant alternative splicing and production of poor-quality spermatozoa, we overexpressed the hnrnpH/F-orthologue Glorund (Glo) in Drosophila, which was also found to be abundant in poor quality human sperm. Transgenic animals produced low numbers of morphologically defective spermatozoa and aberrant formation of the "dense body," an organelle akin to the mammalian manchette. Furthermore, fertility trials demonstrated that transgenic flies were either completely infertile or highly subfertile. These findings suggest that dysregulation of hnrnpH/F is likely to result in the production of low-quality semen, leading to subfertility or infertility in men.

Mid-Pleistocene climate transition triggered by Antarctic Ice Sheet growth.

Despite extensive investigation, the nature and causes of the Mid-Pleistocene Transition remain enigmatic. In this work, we assess its linkage to asynchronous development of bipolar ice sheets by synthesizing Pleistocene mid- to high-latitude proxy records linked to hemispheric ice sheet evolution. Our results indicate substantial growth of the Antarctic Ice Sheets (AISs) at 2.0 to 1.25 million years ago, preceding the rapid expansion of Northern Hemisphere Ice Sheets after ~1.25 million years ago. Proxy-model comparisons suggest that AIS and associated Southern Ocean sea ice expansion can induce northern high-latitude cooling and enhanced moisture transport to the Northern Hemisphere, thus triggering the Mid-Pleistocene Transition. The dynamic processes involved are crucial for assessing modern global warming that is already inducing asynchronous bipolar melting of ice sheets.

Optimization of CRISPR/Cas12a detection assay and its application in the detection of Echinococcus granulosus.

Cystic echinococcosis, resulting from infection with Echinococcus granulosus, poses a significant challenge as a neglected tropical disease owing to the lack of any known effective treatment. Primarily affecting under-resourced, remote, and conflict-ridden regions, the disease is compounded by the limitations of current detection techniques, such as microscopy, physical imaging, ELISA, and qPCR, which are unsuitable for application in these areas. The emergence of CRISPR/Cas12a as a promising tool for nucleic acid detection, characterized by its unparalleled specificity, heightened sensitivity, and rapid detection time, offers a potential solution. In this study, we present a one-pot CRISPR/Cas12a detection method for E. granulosus (genotype G1, sheep strain) integrating recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) with suboptimal protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) and structured CRISPR RNA (crRNA) to enhance reaction efficiency. The evaluation of the assay's performance using hydatid cyst spiked dog feces and the examination of 62 dog fecal samples collected from various regions of Western China demonstrate its efficacy. The assay permits visual observation of test results about 15 minutes under blue light and displays superior portability and reaction speed relative to qPCR, achieving a sensitivity level of 10 copies of standard plasmids of the target gene. Analytic specificity was verified against four tapeworm species (E. multilocularis, H. taeniaeformis, M. benedeni, and D. caninum) and two other helminths (T. canis and F. hepatica), with negative results also noted for Mesocestoides sp. This study presents a rapid, sensitive, and time-efficient DNA detection method for E. granulosus of hydatid cyst spiked and clinical dog feces, potential serving as an alternative tool for field detection. This novel assay is primarily used to diagnose the definitive host of E. granulosus. Further validation using a larger set of clinical fecal samples is warranted, along with additional exploration of more effective approaches for nucleic acid release.

NMRK2 is an efficient diagnostic indicator for Xp11.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma.

Xp11.2 translocation renal cell carcinomas (tRCC) are a rare and highly malignant type of renal cancer, lacking efficient diagnostic indicators and therapeutic targets. Through the analysis of public databases and our cohort, we identified NMRK2 as a potential diagnostic marker for distinguishing Xp11.2 tRCC from kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) and kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP) due to its specific upregulation in Xp11.2 tRCC tissues. Mechanistically, we discovered that TFE3 fusion protein binds to the promoter of the NMRK2 gene, leading to its upregulation. Importantly, we established RNA- and protein-based diagnostic methods for identifying Xp11.2 tRCC based on NMRK2 expression levels, and the diagnostic performance of our methods was comparable to a dual-color break-apart fluorescence in situ hybridization assay. Moreover, we successfully identified fresh Xp11.2 tRCC tissues after surgical excision using our diagnostic methods and established an immortalized Xp11.2 tRCC cell line for further research purposes. Functional studies revealed that NMRK2 promotes the progression of Xp11.2 tRCC by upregulating the NAD+/NADH ratio, and supplementation with ß-nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) or nicotinamide riboside chloride (NR), effectively rescued the phenotypes induced by the knockdown of NMRK2 in Xp11.2 tRCC. Taken together, these data introduce a new diagnostic indicator capable of accurately distinguishing Xp11.2 tRCC and highlight the possibility of developing novel targeted therapeutics. © 2024 The Pathological Society of Great Britain and Ireland.

High-selective separation recovery of Ni, Co, and Mn from the spent LIBs via acid dissolution and multistage oxidation precipitation.

For recovering Ni, Co, and Mn from lithium-ion batteries, traditional chemical precipitation methods demonstrate low selectivity and significantly contribute to environmental pollution. This study proposes a separation recovery technique for transition metals, specifically Ni, Co, and Mn, from spent LIBs, involving "acid dissolution" and "multistage oxidation precipitation". More than 98% of transition metals can be extracted from spent LIBs using a low acid concentration (0.5 M) without reducing agents. The feasibility of separating different metals via multistage oxidation precipitation, based on their different electrode potentials for oxidizing Me2+ (Me = Mn/Co/Ni), was confirmed. The combination of oxidizing agent S2O82- and the precipitant OH- was universally applied to the fractional precipitation of Mn, Co, and Ni respectively. About 99% of Mn, 97.06% Co, and 96.62% Ni could be precipitated sequentially by changing the concentrations of S2O82- and the pH value of solution. XRD, XPS, XRF, ICP-MS and other methods were employed to elucidate the mechanism behind the multistage oxidation precipitation of target metal compounds, exploiting the differential electrode potentials for oxidizing Me2+ ions. This technique surpasses traditional solvent extraction in cost-effectiveness and selectivity, showing promise for large-scale industrial applications in recovering Mn, Co, and Ni.

Effect of disease duration on the use of tofacitinib: a real-world study in elderly patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

This study aims to test the hypothesis that disease duration may affect the response to generic tofacitinib (TOF) and investigate the influence of concomitant medications with TOF on elderly rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This study retrospectively collected 76 elderly patients (age > 60) treated with TOF from 2019 to 2023 and grouped them according to age of disease onset. Data were collected from baseline to the last follow-up visit within 24 months. The demographic characteristics and follow-up results were compared. TOF retention and the effect of concomitant drugs (methotrexate, MTX, prednisone) were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier plots and COX regression analysis. Canonical correlation analysis (CCA) was used to explore the correlation among demographic characteristics, medication regimen, and improved clinical outcomes. There was no significant difference in the proportion of patients achieving low disease activity (LDA) between different disease duration groups. Patients in the group of MTX had a shorter time of using TOF in follow-up (log-rank p = 0.041). Prednisone dosage at baseline had a predictive value for functionally disabled situation. We found significant associations between discontinuation of TOF in the last follow-up and getting LDA. A total result of CCA yielded a significant positive correlation with set 1 (demographic characteristics and medication regimen) and set 2 (improved clinical outcomes) (canonical coefficient = 0.887, p < 0.001). Disease duration may not affect response to generic TOF and medication regimen was the factor related to efficacy of generic TOF in elderly RA in the real world. Demographic characteristics and medication regimen were correlated positively with improved clinical outcomes. Key Points • There is scarce data from the western area of China regarding the use of tofacitinib in elderly rheumatoid arthritis patients, despite widespread use. • In this retrospective analysis of 76 elderly patients at a single center, we found disease duration may not affect response to generic TOF. • Concomitant MTX might contribute to better control of the disease activity. • Concomitant prednisone dosage at baseline was the independent risk factor for functionally disabled situation.

Quantification accuracy in photon-counting detector CT for coronary artery calcium score: a pilot study.

To validate the accuracy of coronary artery calcium score (CACS) using photon-counting detector (PCD) CT under various scanning settings and explore the optimized scanning settings considering both the accuracy and the radiation dose. A CACS phantom containing six hollow cylindrical hydroxyapatite calcifications of two sizes with three densities and 12 patients underwent CACS scans. For PCD-CT, two scanning modes (sequence and flash [high-pitch spiral mode]) and five tube voltages (90kV, 120kV, 140kV, Sn100kV, and Sn140kV) at different image quality (IQ) levels were set for phantom, and patients were scanned with 120kV at IQ19 using flash mode. All acquisitions from PCD-CT were reconstructed at 70keV. Acquisitions in sequence mode at 120kV on an energy-integrating detector CT (EID-CT) was used as the reference. Agatston, mass, and volume scores were calculated. The CACS from PCD-CT exhibited excellent agreements with the reference (all intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] > 0.99). The root mean square error (RMSE) between the Agatston score acquired from PCD-CT and the reference (5.4-11.5) was small. A radiation dose reduction (16-75%) from PCD-CT compared with the reference was obtained in all protocols using flash mode, albeit with IQ20 only at sequence mode (22-44%). For the patients, ICC ( all ICC > 0.98) and Bland-Altman analysis of CACS all showed high agreements between PCD-CT and the reference, without reclassifying CACS categories(P = 0.317). PCD-CT yields repeatable and accurate CACS across diverse scanning protocols according to our pilot study. Sn100kV, 90kV, and 120kV using flash mode at IQ20 are recommended for clinical applications considering both accuracy and radiation dose.

Study on the dry shrinkage characteristics and size effect of swell-shrink characteristic soil.

Swell-shrink characteristic soils exhibit a high susceptibility to cracking during the drying process, which poses a significant risk of various geological disasters. Among these, the occurrence of drying shrinkage acts as a prerequisite for the cracking phenomenon. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to comprehend the specific characteristics associated with the drying shrinkage mechanism. To investigate the drying shrinkage behavior of swell-shrink characteristic soils, a series of drying shrinkage experiments were conducted on long strip samples of red clay and expansive soil. Utilizing three-dimensional digital image correlation (DIC) technology, the surface displacement, strain, and anisotropic shrinkage rates of the soil samples during the drying process were obtained, and the size effect on the drying shrinkage of swell-shrink characteristic soil were analyzed. The research findings are as follows: The displacement development of the soil samples in the X and Y directions can be divided into two stages: a linear growth stage and a stable displacement stage. In the Z direction, the soil surface deformation can be divided into three stages: soil surface arching, vertical shrinkage, and shrinkage stabilization. The drying shrinkage of swell-shrink characteristic soil exhibits anisotropy, with the vertical shrinkage rate being the largest, followed by the longitudinal and then the transverse directions. Additionally, the soil sample shrinkage exhibits a size effect, whereby the shrinkage rates in all directions increase with increasing sample width and thickness. During the drying shrinkage process, the stress state on the soil surface evolves from initial tensile strain to subsequent compressive strain. The strain at different positions and times within the soil sample is not uniform, resulting in the non-uniformity and anisotropy of the sample shrinkage. This study provides important insights into the cracking mechanism of swell-shrink characteristic soils and serves as a valuable reference for related laboratory experiments, which will contribute to better prediction and control the geological hazards caused by the drying shrinkage of swell-shrink characteristic soils.

Palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative (4 + 3) cycloadditions of bicyclobutanes with 2-alkylidenetrimethylene carbonates for the synthesis of 2-oxabicyclo[4.1.1]octanes.

While cycloaddition reactions of bicyclobutanes (BCBs) have emerged as a potent method for synthesizing (hetero-)bicyclo[n.1.1]alkanes (usually n ≤ 3), their utilization in the synthesis of bicyclo[4.1.1]octane derivatives (BCOs) is still underdeveloped. Here, a palladium-catalyzed formal (4 + 3) reaction of BCBs with 1,4-O/C dipole precursors for the synthesis of oxa-BCOs is described. Unlike previous catalytic polar (3 + X) cycloadditions of BCBs, which are typically achieved through the activation of BCB substrates, the current reaction represents a novel strategy for realizing the cycloaddition of BCBs through the activation of the "X" cycloaddition partner. Moreover, the obtained functionalized oxa-BCOs products can be readily modified through various synthetic transformations.

Airway bacterial microbiome signatures correlate with occupational pneumoconiosis progression.

Recent evidence has pinpointed a key role of the microbiome in human respiratory health and disease. However, significant knowledge gaps still exist regarding the connection between bacterial communities and adverse effects caused by particulate matters (PMs). Here, we characterized the bacterial microbiome along different airway sites in occupational pneumoconiosis (OP) patients. The sequencing data revealed that OP patients exhibited distinct dysbiosis in the composition and function of the respiratory microbiota. To different extents, there was an overall increase in the colonization of microbiota, such as Streptococcus, implying a possible intrusion pathway provided by exogenous PMs. Compared to those of healthy subjects, unhealthy living habits (i.e., smoking) had a greater impact on microbiome changes in OP patients. Importantly, the associations between the bacterial community and disease indicators indicated that specific bacterial species, including Prevotella, Actinobacillus, and Leptotrichia, might be surrogate markers of OP disease progression. Collectively, our results highlighted the potential participation of the bacterial microbiota in the pathogenesis of respiratory diseases and helped in the discovery of microbiome-based diagnostics for PM-induced disorders.

Global research on emerging trends of obstetrics during the COVID-19 pandemic: A bibliometric analysis.

Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) has caused continuous effects on the global public, especially for susceptible and vulnerable populations like pregnant women. COVID-19-related studies and publications have shown blowout development, making it challenging to identify development trends and hot areas by using traditional review methods for such massive data. Aimed to perform a bibliometric analysis to explore the status and hotspots of COVID-19 in obstetrics. An online search was conducted in the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) database from January 01, 2020 to November 31, 2022, using the following search expression: (((TS= ("COVID 19" OR "coronavirus 2019" OR "coronavirus disease 2019" OR "SARS-CoV-2" OR "2019-nCoV" OR "2019 novel coronavirus" OR "SARS coronavirus 2" OR "Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2" OR "SARS-COV2")) AND TS= ("obstetric*" OR "pregnancy*" OR "pregnant" OR "parturition*" OR "puerperium"))). VOSviewer version 1.6.18, CiteSpace version 6.1.R6, R version 4.2.0, and Rstudio were used for the bibliometric and visualization analyses. 4144 articles were included in further analysis, including authors, titles, number of citations, countries, and author affiliations. The United States has contributed the most significant publications with the leading position. "Sahin, Dilek" has the largest output, and "Khalil, Asma" was the most influential author with the highest citations. Keywords of "Cov," "Experience," and "Neonate" with the highest frequency, and "Systematic Review" might be the new research hotspots and frontiers. The top 3 concerned genes included ACE2, CRP, and IL6. The new research hotspot is gradually shifting from the COVID-19 mechanism and its related clinical research to reviewing treatment options for pregnant women. This research uniquely delves into specific genes related to COVID-19's effects on obstetrics, a focus that has not been previously explored in other reviews. Our research enables clinicians and researchers to summarize the overall point of view of the existing literature and obtain more accurate conclusions.

Spatial and temporal changes of air quality in Shandong Province from 2016 to 2022 and model prediction.

This study investigates the spatial and temporal dynamics of air quality in Shandong Province from 2016 to 2022. The Air Quality Index (AQI) showed a seasonal pattern, with higher values in winter due to temperature inversions and heating emissions, and lower values in summer aided by favorable dispersion conditions. The AQI improved significantly, decreasing by approximately 39.4 % from 6.44 to 3.90. Coastal cities exhibited better air quality than inland areas, influenced by industrial activities and geographical features. For instance, Zibo's geography restricts pollutant dispersion, resulting in poor air quality. CO levels remained stable, while O3 increased seasonally due to photochemical reactions in summer, with correlation coefficients indicating a strong positive correlation with temperature (r = 0.65). Winter saw elevated NO2 levels linked to heating and vehicular emissions, with an observed increase in correlation with AQI (r = 0.78). PM2.5 and PM10 concentrations were higher in colder months due to heating and atmospheric dust, showing a significant decrease of 45 % and 40 %, respectively, over the study period. Predictive modeling forecasts continued air quality improvements, contingent on sustained policy enforcement and technological advancements. This approach provides a comprehensive framework for future air quality management and improvement.

Influence of network latency and bandwidth on robot-assisted laparoscopic telesurgery: A pre-clinical experiment.

BACKGROUND: Telesurgery has the potential to overcome spatial limitations for surgeons, which depends on surgical robot and the quality of network communication. However, the influence of network latency and bandwidth on telesurgery is not well understood. METHODS: A telesurgery system capable of dynamically adjusting image compression ratios in response to bandwidth changes was established between Beijing and Sanya (Hainan province), covering a distance of 3000 km. In total, 108 animal operations, including 12 surgical procedures, were performed. Total latency ranging from 170 ms to 320 ms and bandwidth from 15-20 Mbps to less than 1 Mbps were explored using designed surgical tasks and hemostasis models for renal vein and internal iliac artery rupture bleeding. Network latency, jitter, frame loss, and bit rate code were systemically measured during these operations. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Task Load Index (NASA-TLX) and a self-designed scale measured the workload and subjective perception of surgeons. RESULTS: All 108 animal telesurgeries, conducted from January 2023 to June 2023, were performed effectively over a total duration of 3866 min. The operations were completed with latency up to 320 ms and bandwidths as low as 1-5 Mbps. Hemostasis for vein and artery rupture bleeding models was effectively achieved under these low bandwidth conditions. The NASA-TLX results indicated that latency significantly impacted surgical performance more than bandwidth and image clarity reductions. CONCLUSIONS: This telesurgery system demonstrated safety and reliability. A total of 320 ms latency is acceptable for telesurgery operations. Reducing image clarity can effectively mitigate the potential latency increase caused by decreased bandwidth, offering a new method to reduce the impact of latency on telesurgery.

Recurrence risk prediction models for hepatocellular carcinoma after liver transplantation.

Liver transplantation (LT) is an effective method for curing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However postoperative tumor recurrence can lead to higher mortality rates. To select suitable candidates for LT, the Milan Criteria (MC) were first proposed based on tumor morphological characteristics. For those patients who meet the MC, the MC can effectively reduce the postoperative tumor recurrence rate and improve the prognosis of patients undergoing LT. It has always been internationally recognized as the gold standard for selecting candidates for LT, marking a milestone in the history of LT for HCC. However, its strict conditions exclude some HCC patients who could benefit from LT. Therefore, comprehension consideration criteria, including serum biomarkers, tumor histology, and other factor, have been continuously proposed in addition to tumor morphology. This article summaries the prediction model for HCC recurrence after LT from five aspects: tumor morphology, serum markers, histopathology, cellular inflammatory factors and downstaging treatment before transplantation. The aim is to assist clinicians in accurately assessing HCC status, selecting appropriate liver transplant candidates, maximize graft and patients' survival, and optimizing the utilization of social health resources.
