Abstract
OBJECTIVE In this retrospective pharmacovigilance study, we gathered data on drug-induced posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES). Our goal was to identify the primary suspect drugs in PRES by analyzing the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Events Reporting System (FAERS) database. METHODS We identified and analyzed reports of PRES listed in the FAERS database between 2004 and 2021. Using the reporting odds ratio and 95% confidence interval, we evaluated the safety signals for each of the drugs associated with PRES. RESULTS We reviewed 11,077 reports of adverse events corresponding to PRES. The primary suspect drug categories were antineoplastics, immunosuppressants, and glucocorticoids. PRES was 24.77% more likely to occur in females than in males. Drug-induced PRES usually occurs in individuals with cancer, those who have undergone an organ/stem cell transplant, and those with autoimmune conditions. CONCLUSION Our results show that the drugs most commonly suspected to cause PRES were antineoplastics, immunosuppressants, and glucocorticoids. Future studies are needed to illuminate the pathophysiological alterations that underlie PRES. In the meantime, prescribers and patients should be made aware of the potential risks of PRES associated with pharmaceutical therapy, and the summaries of product characteristics for individual drugs should be updated to include this information.

Measurements of All-Particle Energy Spectrum and Mean Logarithmic Mass of Cosmic Rays from 0.3 to 30 PeV with LHAASO-KM2A. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2024; 132:131002. [PMID: 38613275 DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.132.131002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 02/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024]
Abstract
We present the measurements of all-particle energy spectrum and mean logarithmic mass of cosmic rays in the energy range of 0.3-30 PeV using data collected from LHAASO-KM2A between September 2021 and December 2022, which is based on a nearly composition-independent energy reconstruction method, achieving unprecedented accuracy. Our analysis reveals the position of the knee at 3.67±0.05±0.15 PeV. Below the knee, the spectral index is found to be -2.7413±0.0004±0.0050, while above the knee, it is -3.128±0.005±0.027, with the sharpness of the transition measured with a statistical error of 2%. The mean logarithmic mass of cosmic rays is almost heavier than helium in the whole measured energy range. It decreases from 1.7 at 0.3 PeV to 1.3 at 3 PeV, representing a 24% decline following a power law with an index of -0.1200±0.0003±0.0341. This is equivalent to an increase in abundance of light components. Above the knee, the mean logarithmic mass exhibits a power law trend towards heavier components, which is reversal to the behavior observed in the all-particle energy spectrum. Additionally, the knee position and the change in power-law index are approximately the same. These findings suggest that the knee observed in the all-particle spectrum corresponds to the knee of the light component, rather than the medium-heavy components.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of eculizumab in the treatment of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) in China. Methods: Data from PNH patients who received at least 3 months of full-dose eculizumab and were followed for at least 3 months between December 2022 and July 2023 were retrospectively collected. We evaluated changes in clinical and laboratory parameters after 1, 2, 3, and 6 months of eculizumab treatment. The rates of breakthrough hemolysis (BTH), extravascular hemolysis (EVH), and the occurrence of adverse reactions were also monitored. Results: The study included nine patients, six males and three females, with a median age of 54 (28-69) years. 5 of the patients had classic PNH, while 4 had PNH/AA. The number of episodes of hemoglobinuria was 5 (1-25) per month before eculizumab. 4 patients required blood transfusion, 5 had thrombosis and one had renal impairment before eculizumab. The median time to eculizumab was 6 (3-7) months and the followup period was 3 (3-6) months after treatment. The number of episodes of hemoglobinuria following eculizumab was 0 (0-1). During the followup period, no additional thrombotic events occurred. LDH at any time after eculizumab was lower than at baseline, and some patients' HGB increased. All transfused patients became transfusion-independent after receiving eculizumab. The FACIT-Fatigue score improved by an average of 17.3 points following treatment. 2 patients developed BTH and improved with symptomatic treatment. There were three adverse events that caused mild symptoms. There are no serious adverse events or deaths. Conclusion: Eculizumab can effectively control the hemolytic-related symptoms of PNH in China, reducing the need for blood transfusions to some extent, while also demonstrating a higher safety profile.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the prevalence of frailty and related factors in middle-aged and elderly people aged ≥45 years in island and mountainous areas of Taizhou, Zhejiang Province. Methods: Based on cross-sectional design, stratified cluster sampling and quota sampling methods were adopted. One administrative district was randomly selected from each of six coastal and three inland administrative districts in Taizhou during July to August, representing two different geographical terrains. In the island area (Jiaojiang District), all residents aged ≥45 years were included by cluster sampling. In the mountainous area (Xianju County), participants were selected through quota sampling, with same gender and age distributions. Data about their demographic characteristics, lifestyle and health-related factors were collected through questionnaire surveys and laboratory examinations. The prevalence of frailty was assessed using the Fried frailty phenotype scale. Hierarchical analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to compare the influencing factors of frailty. Results: A total of 1 011 local residents were studied, in whom island and mountainous residents accounted for 48.1% (486/1 011) and 51.9% (525/1 011) respectively; men and women accounted for 45.9% (464/1 011) and 54.1% (547/1 011) respectively. Middle-aged (45-49 years), younger elderly (60-74 years), and older elderly (≥75 years) residents accounted for 38.6% (390/1 011), 44.6% (451/1 011), and 16.8% (170/1 011) respectively. The overall prevalence rate of frailty was 3.6% (36/1 011), the prevalence rate was 3.7% (17/464) in men and 3.5% (19/547) in women. The prevalence rates in age groups 45-59,60-74 years and ≥75 years were 0.3% (1/390), 2.2% (10/451), and 14.7% (25/170), respectively. The prevalence rates of frailty and pre-frailty in island area were 6.0% (29/486) and 39.1% (190/486), respectively, which was higher than those in mountainous area (1.3%, 7/525) and (30.9%, 162/525). After adjusting for potential confounding factors, the risk for frailty in island residents was significantly higher than that in mountainous residents (aOR=1.55,95%CI: 1.07-2.25,P=0.019). In island area, older age (60-74 years:aOR=2.52,95%CI: 1.56-4.13; ≥75 years:aOR=11.65,95%CI:5.38-26.70), being women (aOR=1.94,95%CI: 1.20-3.17), suffering from depression (aOR=1.09,95%CI:1.02-1.17) were associated with frailty symptoms. In mountainous area, older age was also associated with an increased risk of frailty symptoms, but the OR value was lower than those in island area (60-74 years: aOR=1.74,95%CI:1.04-2.94;≥75 years: aOR=4.78,95%CI:2.45-9.50). Polydrug use (aOR=2.08,95%CI: 1.14-3.80) and suffering from depression (aOR=1.10,95%CI: 1.02-1.18) had significant positive association with frailty symptoms. Higher education level had significant negative association with frailty symptoms (junior high school: aOR=0.40,95%CI: 0.21-0.75; senior high school and technical secondary school: aOR=0.29,95%CI: 0.15-0.53; college or above:aOR=0.22,95%CI: 0.11-0.42). Conclusions: The prevalence of frailty in middle-aged and elderly community residents was significantly higher in island area than in mountainous area in Taizhou. The frailty-related factors varied with area. The elderly people (≥75 years) and women in island area had higher risk for frailty. Older age and suffering from depression were the independent risk factors for frailty. It is necessary to pay attention to the health risk factors and special environment in island area, and take comprehensive intervention measures to delay the process of debilitation and improve the quality of life of middle-aged and elderly people.

Abstract
To explore the biological characteristics related to the pathogenesis and severity of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis by RNA sequencing of white blood cells in children with RSV bronchiolitis. This study is a case-control study. A total of 87 children diagnosed with bronchiolitis and RSV antigen positive and/or RSV nucleic acid positive in the pediatric respiratory department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from October 2019 to April 2022 were selected as the case group. The case group was divided into three groups based on the condition: mild, moderate, and severe, and there were two groups according to the presence or absence of atopic symptoms: the atopic group and the non-atopic group, forty healthy children in the same period were selected as the control group. The whole blood leukocyte RNA of the children in the case group and the control group was extracted for RNA sequencing, and the data were analyzed to obtain differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Then, the immunobiological pathways and genes related to the pathogenesis, disease condition, and atopy were screened through Gene Ontology (GO) annotation, Kyoto Gene and Genome Encyclopedia (KEGG) annotation, and protein interaction network (PPI) construction methods. Construct the weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) module to identify potential biological indicators related to disease severity.Compared with the control group, the case group had a total of 1 782 DEGs, including 1 586 upregulated genes and 196 downregulated genes. The GO pathway enrichment of DEGs is mainly enriched in molecular functions such as peroxidase activity and oxidoreductase activity. In the cytological components, it is mainly enriched in cytoplasmic vesicle lumen and secretory granule lumen. In biological processes, it is mainly enriched in processes such as neutrophil activation involved in immune responses, neutrophil degranulation, and neutrophil activation. KEGG analysis is mainly concentrated in the signal pathway of the viral protein interaction with cytokine and cytokine receptor. A PPI network was constructed to screen four genes at the core position, including CCL2, IL-10, MMP9 and JUN. The DEGs obtained by comparing different disease groups with the control group are mainly enriched in retrograde endocannabinoid signaling and cell apoptosis pathways. WGCNA analysis showed that the brown module related to oxygen saturation was most closely related to the disease, and its gene was mainly enriched in the RNA helicase retinoic acid inducible gene-I (RIG-I) like receptor signal pathway. There are 230 specific DEGs in the atopic group and 444 in the non-atopic group. KEGG enrichment analysis results show that both groups are enriched to NF-κB signaling pathway, the characteristic does not cause significant changes in immune response and transcriptome characteristics in children with RSV bronchiolitis. In conclusion, neutrophil activation, degranulation pathway and signal pathway of interaction between viral protein and cytokine and cytokine receptor are involved in the immune response of RSV bronchiolitis host. CCL2, IL-10, MMP9 and JUN genes may be associated with the pathogenesis. They might be potential biomarkers related to disease severity in RIG-I like receptors, cell apoptosis, and endogenous cannabinoid related signaling pathways.

Abstract
Erythro-myeloid progenitors of the yolk sac that originates during early embryo development has been suggested to generate tissue-resident macrophage, mast cell, and even endothelial cell populations from fetal to adult stages. However, the heterogeneity of erythro-myeloid progenitors (EMPs) is not well characterized. Here, we adapt single-cell RNA sequencing to dissect the heterogeneity of EMPs and establish several fate-mapping tools for each EMP subset to trace the contributions of different EMP subsets. We identify two primitive and one definitive EMP subsets from the yolk sac. In addition, we find that primitive EMPs are decoupled from definitive EMPs. Furthermore, we confirm that primitive and definitive EMPs give rise to microglia and other tissue-resident macrophages, respectively. In contrast, only Kit+ Csf1r- primitive EMPs generate endothelial cells transiently during early embryo development. Overall, our results delineate the contribution of yolk sac EMPs more clearly based on the single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq)-guided fate-mapping toolkit.

Abstract
The diffuse Galactic γ-ray emission, mainly produced via interactions between cosmic rays and the interstellar medium and/or radiation field, is a very important probe of the distribution, propagation, and interaction of cosmic rays in the Milky Way. In this Letter, we report the measurements of diffuse γ rays from the Galactic plane between 10 TeV and 1 PeV energies, with the square kilometer array of the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO). Diffuse emissions from the inner (15°10 TeV). The energy spectrum in the inner Galaxy regions can be described by a power-law function with an index of -2.99±0.04, which is different from the curved spectrum as expected from hadronic interactions between locally measured cosmic rays and the line-of-sight integrated gas content. Furthermore, the measured flux is higher by a factor of ∼3 than the prediction. A similar spectrum with an index of -2.99±0.07 is found in the outer Galaxy region, and the absolute flux for 10≲E≲60 TeV is again higher than the prediction for hadronic cosmic ray interactions. The latitude distributions of the diffuse emission are consistent with the gas distribution, while the longitude distributions show clear deviation from the gas distribution. The LHAASO measurements imply that either additional emission sources exist or cosmic ray intensities have spatial variations.

Abstract
To explore the situation of 8 common respiratory pathogens in children with acute respiratory infection (ARI) from 2021 to 2022.The retrospective study selected 8 710 ARI patients from September 2021 to August 2022 in the Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Gansu Province as the study object, patients aged 0 to 17 years old, including 5 048 male children and 3 662 female children. Indirect immunofluorescence was used to detect 8 common respiratory pathogens, including influenza virus A (FluA), influenza virus B (FluB), parainfluenza virus (PIV), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), adenovirus (ADV), Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP), Chlamydia pneumoniae (CP), and Coxsackie virus group B (CoxB) IgM antibodies. χ2 test was used to analyze the results. The results showed that 1 497 of 8 710 children with ARI were positive, with a positive rate of 17.19%. The detection rate of MP among 8 common respiratory pathogens was 11.34%, accounting for 66.0%, followed by FluB, CoxB, PIV, RSV, ADV, FluA and CP, accounting for 13.83%, 9.55%, 6.01%, 2.61%, 1.47%, 0.40% and 0.13%, respectively. Respiratory tract viruses (FluA, FluB, RSV, ADV, PIV, CoxB) accounted for 33.86%.There were significant differences in the detection rates of PIV, ADV and MP among children of different genders (χ2=6.814, 5.154 and 17.784, P<0.05). The detection rate of school-age children (6-17 years old) was the highest, accounting for 33.27% (184/553). The detection rates of 8 common respiratory pathogens in patients with ARI were higher in spring and winter and lower in summer and autumn. To sum up, from 2021 to 2022, MP and FluB infection were dominant in ARI patients in our hospital. The peak period of 8 common respiratory pathogens was in spring and winter. The physical examination rate of 8 common respiratory pathogens in ARI patients aged 6-17 years old was the highest.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infants and children with feeding difficulties have swallowing dysfunction and high risk of aspiration, which could be silent without choking, resulting in recurrent pneumonia and long-term respiratory morbidity. Videofluoroscopic swallow study (VFSS) is a useful tool for real-time visualization of the swallowing process and airway aspiration. This study reported a single-institutional 10-year experience of VFSS in pediatric patients with feeding difficulties and the efficacy of swallowing therapy. METHODS From 2011 to 2020, 30 infants and children with feeding difficulties received VFSS examinations in a medical center at a median age of 19 months (range 7 days-8 years). The images of the swallowing process (oral phase, triggering of pharyngeal swallowing, and pharyngeal phase) under videofluoroscopy were analyzed by a radiologist and a speech-language pathologist. Aspiration severity was assessed from VFSS observations and rated by an eight-point Penetration-Aspiration-Scale (PAS), with higher scores indicating increased severity. Swallowing therapy was performed by experienced speech-language therapists, and follow-up of oral feeding tolerance and risk of aspiration pneumonia was done. RESULTS Of the 30 patients, 24 (80%) had neurological deficits. High PAS scores (6-8) were observed in 25 (83.4%) patients, and 22 had a PAS score of 8, indicating silent aspiration. Of the 25 patients with high PAS scores, 19 (76%) had neurological deficits, and 18 (72%) depended on tube feeding at a median age of 20 months. Swallowing problems occurred most frequently during the pharyngeal phase in the patients with high PAS scores. VFSS-based swallowing therapy improved oral feeding ability and reduced aspiration episodes. CONCLUSION Infants and children with swallowing dysfunction and neurological deficits had high risk of severe aspiration. Swallowing problems in the pharyngeal phase were the most common VFSS findings in patients with severe aspiration. VFSS may help guide problem-oriented swallowing therapy to reduce the risk of recurrent aspiration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neonatal hypoglycemia is a common metabolic occurrence among small for gestational age (SGA) neonates. This study aims to determine the incidence of early neonatal hypoglycemia and confirms the potential risk factors among term and late preterm SGA neonates in a well-baby newborn nursery of a tertiary medical center in Southern Taiwan. METHODS We performed a retrospective medical record review of term and late preterm SGA (birth weight <10 percentile) neonates, born between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2020, in the well-baby newborn nursery, of a tertiary medical center in Southern Taiwan. Blood glucose monitoring was routinely performed at 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 h of life. Antenatal and postnatal risk factors were recorded. Mean blood glucose level, age of occurrence, symptomatic hypoglycemia, and need for intravenous glucose treatment of early hypoglycemia in SGA neonates were documented. RESULTS 690 SGA neonates in the nursery met the criteria and were retrospectively enrolled in the study, 358 of whom (51.80%) were male and 332 (48.10%) female. Of 690 enrolled SGA neonates, 134(19.42%) SGA neonates developed hypoglycemia during a well-baby nursery stay. Among these neonates, 97% of early hypoglycemic episodes occur during the first 2 h of life. The lowest blood glucose level was 46.78 ± 11.13 mg/dL, recorded in the first hour of life. Among the hypoglycemic 134 neonates, 26 (19.40%) neonates had to be transferred from the nursery to the neonatal ward and they required intravenous glucose treatment to achieve euglycemia. 14 (10.40%) neonates had symptomatic hypoglycemia. A multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that cesarean delivery, small head circumference, small chest circumference, and low 1-min Apgar score were significant risk factors for early hypoglycemia in these neonates. CONCLUSION Periodic routine blood glucose level monitoring within the first 4 h of life in term and late preterm SGA neonates is required, especially those with cesarean delivery and low Apgar score.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effects of regenerating islet-derived protein 3A (REG3A) on the proliferation and invasion of glioma cells and its molecular mechanism. Methods: Five low-grade, five high-grade glioma tissues and ten adjacent tissues from glioma patients who underwent surgery at Linyi People's Hospital from October 17, 2017 to October 18, 2018 were collected. Human glioma cell lines (SF295, U251, TG905, A172, CRT) and a primary glioma cell line PT-1 were cultured in vitro. The protein and mRNA expressions of REG3A in these tissues and glioma cell lines were detected by Western blot and reverse transcription-quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). SF295 cells were infected with lentivirus and labeled as REG3A plasmid transfection group, and the TG905 cells were transfected with si-REG3A by liposome transfection reagent and labeled as si-REG3A transfection group. At the same time, the empty transfection control and blank control groups were set up. Glioma cells were treated with REG3A recombinant protein alone or in combination with Akt1/2 inhibitors. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and cell scratch assay were used to detect cell proliferation and invasion, respectively. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of N-cadherin, vimentin and phosphorylation of Akt (p-Akt) in REG3A overexpressed and knockdown glioma cells. Results: RT-qPCR results showed that the mRNA expression levels of REG3A in glioma cells in each group were U251 (2.129±0.13), TG905 (2.22±0.59), CRT (5.02±0.31), A172 (6.62±1.34) and PT-1 (9.18±0.61), respectively, higher than its expression in SF295 cells (1.00±0.18, P<0.001). The mRNA expression level of REG3A in high-grade glioma tissue samples (3.18±2.92) was higher than that in the control group (1.00±1.14, P=0.031) and low-grade glioma group (0.90±0.67, P=0.014). The results of western blot and immunohistochemical staining were consistent with that of RT-qPCR. The migration rate of cells in si-REG3A transfection group [(60.57±5.30)%] was lower than that of the empty transfection group [(84.18±13.63)% (P=0.038)] and blank control group [(79.65±12.09)% (P=0.076)]. The results of the scratch experiment showed that the migration rate of cells in REG3A plasmid transfected cells in the SF295 group was (96.05±6.41)%, which was significantly higher than that of empty transfected cells [(74.47±8.23)%, P=0.021)]. REG3A recombinant protein could up-regulate the expression of N-cadherin, vimentin and p-Akt in SF295 cells. Compared with the control group [(100.00±2.53)%], the proliferation rate in the REG3A recombinant protein group [(117.70±10.24)%] was significantly up-regulated, and the proliferation rate in the REG3A recombinant protein+ Akt inhibitor group [(98.31±3.64)%] was significantly lower than that of the REG3A recombinant protein group (P=0.017). The migration rate of the REG3A recombinant protein+ Akt inhibitor group was (63.35±4.06)%, which was significantly lower than (89.26±11.07)% of the REG3A recombinant protein group (P=0.019). Conclusion: REG3A can promote the proliferation and invasion of human glioma cells by activating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Abstract
Limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) is an ocular surface disease resulting from a reduction and/or dysfunction of limbal stem cells. The symptoms of LSCD are non-specific and can be difficult to distinguish from other ocular surface diseases through slit-lamp examination. Impression cytology is currently considered the gold standard for LSCD diagnosis; however,it is a qualitative method with low sensitivity. Nonetheless,emerging imaging techniques offer quantitative diagnosis and staging of LSCD. This review article examines four imaging methods and their associated parameters for diagnosing LSCD: optical coherence tomography,which measures corneal epithelial thickness; optical coherence tomography angiography,which detects corneal neovascularization; in vivo confocal microscopy,which measures corneal epithelial thickness,subbasal nerve density,and corneal basal cell density; and future applications of full-field/spectral-domain optical coherence tomography.

Abstract
The green fluorescent reporter gene was inserted into the gene interval of polymyxin resistant mcr-1-carrying plasmid (pSH13G841) by homologous recombination of suicide plasmid. At the same time, E. coli J53 with red fluorescent reporter gene was constructed. Using the ability of spontaneous conjugation of drug resistant plasmid (pSH13G841), pSH13G841-GFP plasmid was transferred into J53 RFP bacteria to construct a double fluorescent labeled donor bacterium. The two light-emitting systems could stably and spontaneously express fluorescence without mutual interference. The dual fluorescence report system constructed can be used for visual tracing horizontal transfer of mcr-1-carrying plasmid, the subsequent model can study the colonization, transfer and prognosis of drug-resistant bacteria/drug-resistant genes mcr-1 by using mouse in vivo imaging technology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to mine and compare the positive signals of adverse drug events (ADE) in paclitaxel, docetaxel, and nab-paclitaxel to evaluate the accuracy of current drug package information inserts and enable clinicians to select the appropriate treatment. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS ADE data reported from January 2006 to December 2020 were extracted from the Food and Drug Adverse Drug Events Reporting System (FAERS) database, and the reporting odds ratio (ROR) was used to detect the risk signals of the 3 taxanes. The definition relied on system organ class (SOCs) and preferred terms (PTs) by the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). RESULTS A total of 39,163 case reports on paclitaxel, docetaxel and nab-paclitaxel involving 25 different system organ classes (SOCs) were retrieved from the database. The ADE paclitaxel and nab-paclitaxel reports mainly focused on 'general disorders and administration site conditions' and the docetaxel ADE reports focused on 'skin and subcutaneous tissue diseases.' Among the three taxanes, nab-paclitaxel had the highest positive signal for serious adverse events. CONCLUSIONS Overall, the most common ADE signals and ADE mapping systems obtained in this study were consistent with the package inserts. However, some inconsistencies were noted. Further research is recommended to confirm some of the strong risk signals for ADEs for taxanes before updating the drug package information inserts.

Abstract
Some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have a tera-electron volt (TeV) afterglow, but the early onset of this has not been observed. We report observations with the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory of the bright GRB 221009A, which serendipitously occurred within the instrument field of view. More than 64,000 photons >0.2 TeV were detected within the first 3000 seconds. The TeV flux began several minutes after the GRB trigger, then rose to a peak about 10 seconds later. This was followed by a decay phase, which became more rapid ~650 seconds after the peak. We interpret the emission using a model of a relativistic jet with half-opening angle ~0.8°. This is consistent with the core of a structured jet and could explain the high isotropic energy of this GRB.

Abstract
AIM Relatively little information is available about the effect of an acute exertional heat stroke (EHS) on myocardium structure and function. Herein, we used a survival male rat model of EHS to answer the question. MAIN METHODS Adult male Wistar rats underwent forced treadmill running at a 36 °C room temperature and 50 % relative humidity until EHS onset, characterized by hyperthermia and collapse. All rats that were followed for 14 days survived. Injury severity scores of both gastrocnemius and myocardium were determined histologically. Following an EHS event, pathological echocardiography, skeletal muscle and myocardial damage scores and indicators, myocardial fibrosis, hypertrophy, and autophagy were elucidated. KEY FINDINGS Rats with EHS onset displayed skeletal muscle damage, elevated serum levels of skeletal muscle indicators (e.g., creatinine kinase, myoglobin, and potassium) and myocardial injury indicators (e.g., cardiac troponin I, creatinine kinase, and lactate dehydrogenase) returning to homeostasis within 3 days post-EHS. However, EHS-induced myocardial damage, pathological echocardiography, myocardial fibrosis, hypertrophy, and deposited misfolded proteins lasted up to 14 days post-EHS at least. SIGNIFICANCE First, we provide evidence to confirm that despite the apparent return to homeostasis, underlying processes may still be ongoing after EHS onset. Second, we provide several key findings emphasizing the pathophysiology and risk factors of EHS, highlighting gaps in knowledge with the aim of stimulating future studies.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the histopathological classification of orbital space-occupying lesions. Methods: This is a retrospective case series study. The clinical and pathological data of 1 913 tissue specimens from 1 913 patients with space-occupying lesions of the orbit which were examined in the Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 2000 to December 2021 were collected. The mass lesions were classified based on histogenesis, pathological nature and age. Results: There were 913 males (47.7%) and 1 000 females (52.3%). The lesions were benign in 1 489 patients (77.8%) and malignant in 424 patients (22.2%). Based on histogenesis, there were 521 vasculogenic lesions (27.2%), which rancked first, 407 cystoid lesions (21.3%), 277 lymphoproliferative lesions (14.5%), 182 lacrimal gland lesions (9.5%) and 121 inflammatory lesions (6.3%). By pathological nature, there were 1 489 benign lesions, including cavernous hemangioma (275, 14.4%), dermoid cyst (225, 11.8%), other hemangiomas (199, 10.4%), epidermoid cyst (136, 7.1%) and benign mixed tumor of the lacrimal gland (134, 7.0%), and 257 malignant lesions, including lymphoma (210, 11.0%) and sebaceous gland carcinoma (47, 2.5%). The age of all patients ranged from 0 to 90 years, while 247 lesions (12.9%) occurred in patients aged 0 to18 years, 1 270 lesions (66.4%) in patients aged 19 to 59 years, and 396 lesions (20.7%) in patients aged 60 to 90 years. Conclusions: In 22 years, almost 2/3 benign orbital lesions in the Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine occurred in young and middle-aged patients, and males were fewer than females. The most common benign orbital tumors was cavernous hemangioma, followed by dermoid cyst and epidermoid cyst. And the most common malignant orbital tumor was lymphoma, which occurred more frequently in older patients.

The kilometer square array (KM2A) of the large high altitude air shower observatory (LHAASO) aims at surveying the northern γ-ray sky at energies above 10 TeV with unprecedented sensitivity. γ-ray observations have long been one of the most powerful tools for dark matter searches, as, e.g., high-energy γ rays could be produced by the decays of heavy dark matter particles. In this Letter, we present the first dark matter analysis with LHAASO-KM2A, using the first 340 days of data from 1/2-KM2A and 230 days of data from 3/4-KM2A. Several regions of interest are used to search for a signal and account for the residual cosmic-ray background after γ/hadron separation. We find no excess of dark matter signals, and thus place some of the strongest γ-ray constraints on the lifetime of heavy dark matter particles with mass between 10^{5} and 10^{9} GeV. Our results with LHAASO are robust, and have important implications for dark matter interpretations of the diffuse astrophysical high-energy neutrino emission.

The interrelationships between neuronal viability, synaptic integrity, microglial responses, and amyloid-beta formation in an in vitro neurotrauma model. Sci Rep 2022; 12:22028.

Abstract
The interrelationships between neuronal viability, synaptic integrity, and microglial responses remain in infancy. In dealing with the question, we induced a stretch injury to evaluate the mechanical effects of trauma on rat primary cortical neurons and BV2 microglial cells in a transwell culture system. The viability of primary neurons and BV2 cells was determined by MTT. Synaptic integrity was evaluated by determining the expression of beta-secretase 1 (BACE1), amyloid-beta (Aβ), microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2), and synaptophysin (vehicle protein). Both CD16/32-positive (CD16/32+) and CD206-positive (CD206+) microglia cells were detected by immunofluorescence staining. The phagocytic ability of the BV2 cells was determined using pHrodo E. coli BioParticles conjugates and flow cytometry. We found that stretch injury BV2 cells caused reduced viability and synaptic abnormalities characterized by Aβ accumulation and reductions of BACE1, MAP2, and synaptophysin in primary neurons. Intact BV2 cells exhibited normal phagocytic ability and were predominantly CD206+ microglia cells, whereas the injured BV2 cells exhibited reduced phagocytic ability and were predominantly CD16/32+ microglial cells. Like a stretch injury, the injured BV2 cells can cause both reduced viability and synaptic abnormalities in primary neurons; intact BV2 cells, when cocultured with primary neurons, can protect against the stretch-injured-induced reduced viability and synaptic abnormalities in primary neurons. We conclude that CD206+ and CD16/32+ BV-2 cells can produce neuroprotective and cytotoxic effects on primary cortical neurons.

Curcumin-Nicotinate Attenuates Hippocampal Synaptogenesis Dysfunction in Hyperlipidemia Rats by the BDNF/TrkB/CREB Pathway: Involving Idol/LDLR Signaling to Eliminate Aβ Deposition.

Abstract
Hyperlipidemia has been demonstrated to evoke Alzheimer disease (AD) pathologies such as Amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition and synaptogenesis dysfunction in the hippocampus. Curcumin gives protection against anti-amyloid properties and synaptogenesis dysfunction. Curcumin-Nicotinate (CurTn), a new type of curcumin derivative, ameliorates cognitive impairment by rescuing autophagic flux in the CA1 hippocampus of diabetic rats. However, whether Curtn possesses an antagonistic effect on AD-related pathologies in the hippocampus induced by hyperlipidemia remains ill-defined. The present study aims to investigate whether CurTn alleviates synaptogenesis dysfunction by promoting the activation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)/tyrosine kinase receptor B (TrkB)/cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB) signaling and whether the underlying fundamental mechanism involves the elimination of Aβ deposition due to Idol/low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) signaling in the hippocampus of high-fat diet (HFD)-induced hyperlipidemia rats. The results demonstrated that CurTn not only improved synaptogenesis dysfunction in the hippocampus of HFD rats, as evidenced by the increases in the expressions of synapse-related proteins postsynaptic density protein 95 (PSD-95), synapsin-1, and Glutamate receptor 1 (GluR1), but also activated BDNF/TrkB/CREB signaling, as evidenced by the elevation of the expressions of BDNF, pTrkB, and CREB. Moreover, CurTn modulated the Idol/LDLR pathway in the hippocampus of HFD rats, as evidenced by the decreased expression of Idol and the increased expression of LDLR. Furthermore, CurTn eliminated the deposition of Aβ, as evidenced by the reduction in the content of Aβ40 and Aβ42. These results reveal that CurTn may attenuate synaptogenesis dysfunction by activating BDNF/TrkB/CREB signaling, as the possible result of the modulation of Idol/LDLR signaling to eliminate Aβ deposition in the hippocampus of HFD rats.

Effect of Exercise Interventions on Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients with Fibromyalgia Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis. J Pain Res 2022; 15:3639-3656. [PMID: 36444171 PMCID: PMC9700437 DOI: 10.2147/jpr.s384215] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2022] [Accepted: 11/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/03/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Several guidelines highlight the beneficial impact of exercise on the management of symptoms and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). However, few analyses have compared different types of exercise. We, therefore, intent to compare the effects of different exercise types on improving the overall HRQOL and typical symptoms in patients with FMS. METHODS Medline, Embase, the Cochrane Register of Clinical Trials, and NIH ClinicalTrials.gov were searched from inception to April 21, 2022. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) were included to assess the impact of exercise intervention on health parameters in adult FMS patients. Data were extracted independently and a frequentist network meta-analyses (NMA) was performed to rank the effects of interventions according to P-scores. The NMA evidence certainty was assessed using the method recommended by Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation Working Group. RESULTS A total of 57 RCTs were identified, including 3319 participants, involving 9 interventions (7 types of exercise, 2 controls). Of all treatments compared with usual care in efficacy outcomes, Mind-body exercise was associated with the best HRQOL (SMD, -12.12; 95% CI, -15.79 to -8.45). On the other characteristic symptom dimensions, based on moderate quality evidence, sensorimotor training was associated with minimal pain scores compared with usual care (SMD, -1.81; 95% CI, -2.81 to -0.82), whole body vibration therapy was most promising for improving sleep quality (SMD, -6.95; 95% CI, -10.03 to -3.87), pool-based aerobic exercise was most likely to ease anxiety (SMD, -4.83; 95% CI, -7.47 to -2.19), and whole body vibration was most likely to improve depression (SMD, -10.44; 95% CI, -22.00 to 1.12). CONCLUSION Mind-body exercise seems to be the most effective exercise to improve the overall HRQOL of patients with FMS. But at the same time, clinicians still need to develop individualized exercise plans for patients according to their symptoms and accessibility.
