This study intends to conduct a prospective randomized controlled trial to implement esketamine-assisted anesthesia in patients undergoing open thyroidectomy, in order to observe the effect of esketamine on coughing during extubation in thyroidectomy patients.

This study is a prospective randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of low-dose versus standard-dose trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) for the prevention of Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) in kidney transplant recipients.
Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either low-dose or standard-dose TMP-SMX for 12 months after kidney transplantation. The primary outcome is the incidence of PJP during the prophylaxis period. Secondary outcomes include adverse events related to TMP-SMX, dose reduction or discontinuation rates, incidence and timing of PJP after discontinuation, and other post-transplant complications.
Participants will be followed for a total of 24 months, including a 12-month prophylaxis period and an additional 12-month follow-up period after discontinuation. This study aims to provide evidence for optimizing prophylactic strategies against PJP in kidney transplant recipients.
