Abstract
Sweat gland (SwG) regeneration is crucial for the functional rehabilitation of burn patients. In vivo chemical reprogramming that harnessing the patient's own cells in damaged tissue is of substantial interest to regenerate organs endogenously by pharmacological manipulation, which could compensate for tissue loss in devastating diseases and injuries, for example, burns. However, achieving in vivo chemical reprogramming is challenging due to the low reprogramming efficiency and an unfavorable tissue environment. Herein, this work has developed a functionalized proteinaceous nanoformulation delivery system containing prefabricated epidermal growth factor structure for on-demand delivery of a cocktail of seven SwG reprogramming components to the dermal site. Such a chemical reprogramming system can efficiently induce the conversion of epidermal keratinocytes into SwG myoepithelial cells, resulting in successful in situ regeneration of functional SwGs. Notably, in vivo chemical reprogramming of SwGs is achieved for the first time with an impressive efficiency of 30.6%, surpassing previously reported efficiencies. Overall, this proteinaceous nanoformulation provides a platform for coordinating the target delivery of multiple pharmacological agents and facilitating in vivo SwG reprogramming by chemicals. This advancement greatly improves the clinical accessibility of in vivo reprogramming and offers a non-surgical, non-viral, and cell-free strategy for in situ SwG regeneration.

Abstract
Sebaceous glands (SGs), as holocrine-secreting appendages, lubricate the skin and play a central role in the skin barrier. Large full-thickness skin defects cause overall architecture disruption and SG loss. However, an effective strategy for SG regeneration is lacking. Organoids are 3D multicellular structures that replicate key anatomical and functional characteristics of in vivo tissues and exhibit great potential in regenerative medicine. Recently, considerable progress has been made in developing reliable procedures for SG organoids and existing SG organoids recapitulate the main morphological, structural and functional features of their in vivo counterparts. Engineering approaches empower researchers to manipulate cell behaviors, the surrounding environment and cell-environment crosstalk within the culture system as needed. These techniques can be applied to the SG organoid culture system to generate functionally more competent SG organoids. This review aims to provide an overview of recent advancements in SG organoid engineering. It highlights some potential strategies for SG organoid functionalization that are promising to forge a platform for engineering vascularized, innervated, immune-interactive and lipogenic SG organoids. We anticipate that this review will not only contribute to improving our understanding of SG biology and regeneration but also facilitate the transition of the SG organoid from laboratory research to a feasible clinical application.

First Measurement of the |t| Dependence of Incoherent J/ψ Photonuclear Production. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2024; 132:162302.

Abstract
The first measurement of the cross section for incoherent photonuclear production of J/ψ vector mesons as a function of the Mandelstam |t| variable is presented. The measurement was carried out with the ALICE detector at midrapidity, |y|<0.8, using ultraperipheral collisions of Pb nuclei at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02 TeV. This rapidity interval corresponds to a Bjorken-x range (0.3-1.4)×10^{-3}. Cross sections are given in five |t| intervals in the range 0.04<|t|<1 GeV^{2} and compared to the predictions by different models. Models that ignore quantum fluctuations of the gluon density in the colliding hadron predict a |t| dependence of the cross section much steeper than in data. The inclusion of such fluctuations in the same models provides a better description of the data.

Int J Nanomedicine 2024; 19:3555-3575. [PMID: 38638364 PMCID: PMC11024985 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s458295] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Neutrophils rapidly accumulate in large numbers at sites of tissue damage, exhibiting not only their well-known bactericidal capabilities but also playing crucial roles in angiogenesis and tissue repair. While exosomes derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HucMSC-Exo) have emerged as a promising therapeutic tool, their exact mechanisms of action remain partly elusive. We hypothesize that HucMSC-Exo treatment may modulate neutrophil phenotypes, thereby significantly influencing wound healing outcomes. Methods HucMSC-Exo were isolated via ultracentrifugation and subsequently administered through subcutaneous injection into full-thickness cutaneous wounds in mice. To determine the impact of host neutrophils on the healing effects of HucMSC-Exo in skin injuries, strategies including neutrophil depletion and adoptive transfer were employed. Flow cytometry was used to evaluate the proportion of N2 subtype neutrophils in both normal and diabetic wounds, and the effect of HucMSC-Exo on this proportion was assessed. Furthermore, the mitochondrial metabolic reprogramming driven by HucMSC-Exo during N2 polarization was investigated through JC1 staining, ATP quantification, fatty acid uptake assays, and assessment of FAO-related genes (Cpt1b, Acadm, and Acadl). Results Depleting host neutrophils strikingly dampened prohealing effect of HucMSC-Exo on skin injury, while adoptive transfer of bone marrow neutrophils rescued this process. During normal healing process, some neutrophils expressed N2 markers, in contrast, diabetic wounds exhibited a reduced expression of N2 markers. After treatment with HucMSC-Exo, most neutrophils increased the phosphorylation of STAT6, leading to mitochondrial metabolic reprogramming and thus acquired an N2 phenotype. These N2 neutrophils, polarized by HucMSC-Exo, boosted the release of proangiogenic factors, particularly BV8, a myeloid cell-derived proangiogenic factor, and induced angiogenesis thereby favoring tissue restoration. Conclusion This research uniquely demonstrates the identification of N2 neutrophils in skin injury and shows that HucMSC-Exo could skew neutrophils toward N2 phenotype, enhancing our insight into how cells react to HucMSC-Exo.

Abstract
The scar repair inevitably causes damage of skin function and loss of skin appendages such as hair follicles (HF). It is of great challenge in wound repair that how to intervene in scar formation while simultaneously remodeling HF niche and inducing in situ HF regeneration. Here, chemical reprogramming techniques are used to identify a clinically chemical cocktail (Tideglusib and Tamibarotene) that can drive fibroblasts toward dermal papilla cell (DPC) fate. Considering the advantage of biomaterials in tissue repair and their regulation in cell behavior that may contributes to cellular reprogramming, the artificial HF seeding (AHFS) hydrogel microspheres, inspired by the natural processes of "seeding and harvest", are constructed via using a combination of liposome nanoparticle drug delivery system, photoresponsive hydrogel shell, positively charged polyamide modification, microfluidic and photocrosslinking techniques. The identified chemical cocktail is as the core nucleus of AHFS. In vitro and in vivo studies show that AHFS can regulate fibroblast fate, induce fibroblast-to-DPC reprogramming by activating the PI3K/AKT pathway, finally promoting wound healing and in situ HF regeneration while inhibiting scar formation in a two-pronged translational approach. In conclusion, AHFS provides a new and effective strategy for functional repair of skin wounds.

Abstract
Cuproptosis is a newly reported type of programmed cell death that is involved in the progression of various diseases. Some studies have reported its potential significance in multiple tumors. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the malignant tumors with high incidence and mortality. The purpose of this study was to further explore the importance of cuproptosis in the CRC development and treatment. We analyzed the expression, alterations, and promoter methylation of cuproptosis-related genes (CRGs) in patients with CRC. Three machine learning methods was used to determine cuproptosis-related feature genes and a diagnostic model was built based on them. Using the unsupervised clustering, patients with CRC were classified into distinct clusters. Then, the LASSO method was used to establish a cuproptosis risk model. We analyzed the association of risk scores with outcomes, immune microenvironment, response to immunotherapy, and sensitivity to chemotherapeutic drugs. The results showed that the expression of CRGs was dysregulated in CRC. The diagnostic model based on cuproptosis-related feature genes showed great clinical value. The patients in two clusters displayed different prognosis and microenvironment. Furthermore, the risk score was correlated with clinical characteristics, immune infiltration and response to immunotherapy and chemotherapy. Above all, the present findings revealed the involvement of cuproptosis in CRC development and provided a diagnostic tool to evaluate CRC occurrence risk. The immune infiltration and drug sensitivity analysis results helped to predict the response of patients in different subtypes of CRC to immunotherapy and chemotherapy.

Abstract
The issue of hearing protection in the presence of noise pollution is of great importance in the fields of environmental science and clinical medicine. Currently, the clinical significance of Klotho in relation to hearing has not been revealed. The aim of this study was to examine the correlation between serum Klotho levels and Pure Tone Average (PTA) hearing thresholds among individuals in the U.S.. The analysis involved a sample of 1,781 individuals aged 20 to 69, obtained from the 2007-2012 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Various methods were utilized for the analysis, including univariate and multivariate linear regression, stratified analysis, smooth curve fitting, a two-segment linear regression model, and log-likelihood ratio analysis. The results of the univariate analysis indicated that serum Klotho concentration, age, education level, hypertension, diabetes, and smoking all exhibited a significant influence on PTAs. After adjusting for potential confounding factors, it was observed that a decrease in serum Klotho was significantly associated with PTA thresholds at low frequency (β = -0.002; 95% CI: -0.003, -0.001; P = 0.004), speech frequency (β = -0.002; 95% CI: -0.003, -0.001; P = 0.007), and high frequency (β = -0.002; 95% CI: -0.003, -0.001; P = 0.045). Specifically, for every 1 pg/ml decrease in serum Klotho concentration, the PTAs increased by 0.002 dB. Moreover, age and gender-specific analyses revealed significant associations. For individuals aged 59-69, a significant association was found between serum Klotho concentration and high-frequency PTA (β = -4.153; 95% CI: -7.948, -0.358; P = 0.032). Additionally, among females, significant associations were observed between serum Klotho concentration and speech-frequency PTA (β = -1.648, 95% CI: -3.197, -0.099; P = 0.037) as well as high-frequency PTA (β = -3.046; 95% CI: -5.319, -0.772; P = 0.009). Finally, the results of smooth curve fitting and threshold effect analyses indicated a potential negative linear correlation between serum Klotho concentration and PTA thresholds. In conclusion, a lower level of serum Klotho was found to be associated with increased hearing thresholds, particularly among the elderly population. This finding has significant implications for the prevention and treatment of hearing damage.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) This study aims to assess the anti-tumor activity and safety of concurrent chemoradiotherapy plus PD-1 blockade in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. MATERIALS/METHODS This is a single-arm, open-label, prospective phase II study. The key inclusion criteria were treatment-naive patients aged 18-75 years with stage II A2-IVA (FIGO 2018) locally advanced cervical cancer. All patients were treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy including 2 cycle cisplatin (75mg/m2, for three days, every 3 weeks[Q3W]), nedaplatin or carboplatin can be selected for patients who can't tolerate cisplatin. After CCRT, patients achieving complete response (CR), partial responses(PR), stable disease(SD) received adjuvant chemotherapy (docetaxel 75 mg/m2 day 1+ cisplatin DDP 25 mg/m2 day 1-3, Q3W) for 2 cycle. PD-1 blockade Sintilimab and Tislelizumab was administered intravenously at 200 mg every 3 weeks up to 1 year or until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) assessed by investigators per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumours (RECIST) version 1.1. Secondary endpoints were the 12, 24-month overall survival (OS) rates, the 12, 24-month disease free survival (DFS) rates and safety. RESULTS From February 2020 to June 2022, a total of 15 patients was enrolled. Median age was 57 years (range, 36-74 years). Stage IIA1 was documented in 2 patients, stage IIA2 in two patients, stage IIIA in one patient, stage IIIC1 in eight patients, and stage IVA in two patients. And 66.7% (10/15) of patients had Metastatic lymph node. Four patients received adjuvant chemotherapy. The ORR was 100%, with 4 patients achieving CR and 11 PR. The 12 and 24-month OS rates are 93.3% and 84%, the 12 and 24-month DFS rates are 86% and 75.4%, respectively. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) occurred in 86.7% (13/15) of patients. Grade 3 TRAEs are leukocyte (n = 1), thrombocytopenia (n = 1), hepatitis (n = 1), skin reaction (n = 1). No treatment-related deaths occurred. And IFN-γ was significantly elevated after radiotherapy (p = 0.0073). CONCLUSION Concurrent chemoradiotherapy plus PD-1 blockade showed promising antitumor activity and manageable toxicities in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. Long-term outcomes are still pending to further evaluate their therapeutic effects. (ChiCTR2000032856).

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Chronic inflammation has been proposed to be associated with tumor development and progression. Dynamic changes in serum cytokines induced by feedback mechanisms from tumors make differentiation of cause and effect difficult. MATERIALS/METHODS In this study, a bidirectional summary-level Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was performed to elucidate the causal correlation between inflammatory regulators with colon (CC) and rectum (RC) carcinomas. Summary-level data on inflammation-related genetic variations were extracted from a genome-wide association meta-analysis. Corresponding data for CC and RC were obtained from the FinnGen (CC: 1396 cases vs. 174,006 controls; RC: 1,078 cases vs. 174,006 controls) and UK Biobank (CC: 2,226 cases vs. 358,968 controls; RC: 1,170 cases vs. 360,024 controls) consortiums. Inverse-variance weighted MR was used as the primary method, and sensitivity analysis was performed to assess the MR assumptions. RESULTS After P value correction and meta-analysis, there was evidence of direct associations between macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) and CC (95% confidence interval (CI):1.001-1.003; P = 8.77×10-4) and inverse correlations between Interleukin-17 (IL-17) and RC (95% CI: 0.997-0.999; P = 1.15×10-3). Conversely, interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL1ra) was downregulated in patients at a higher risk of RC (P = 0.006), and no reliable results revealed a causal association between other cytokines and CC and RC. CONCLUSION Thus, this MR study suggests that downregulated serum MIF and elevated serum IL-17 concentrations may reduce the risk of CC and RC, respectively. Therefore, MIF and IL-17 may serve as potential therapeutic targets, and further exploration of their underlying mechanisms is warranted.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Chemoradiotherapy is a major modality for treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Naples prognosis score (NPS) is a novel prognostic biomarker-based immune and nutritional status and that can be used to evaluate prognosis. Our study aimed to investigate the prognostic role of NPS in unresectable SCLC patients. MATERIALS/METHODS Patients treated with chemoradiotherapy were retrospectively analyzed between June 2012 and August 2017. We divided patients into three groups depending on the NPS: group 0, n = 31; group 1, n = 100; and group 2, n = 48, and associations between clinical characteristics and NPS group were analyzed. Spearman correlation analyses were used to estimate the correlations among NPS parameters. The univariable and multivariable Cox analyses were used to evaluate the prognostic value of clinicopathological characteristics and laboratory indicators for overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS Data from 179 patients were analyzed. Treatment modality (P < 0.001) and serum CEA (P = 0.03) were significantly different among the NPS groups. The age, sex, smoking status, KPS, Karnofsky performance score (KPS), disease extent, and number of metastatic sites were not correlated with NPS (all P > 0.05). Spearman correlation analyses showed that neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) had a significant correlation with lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) (r = -0.495, P < 0.001). KPS, disease extent, prophylactic cranial irradiation, treatment response and NPS Group were associated with OS. In addition, KPS, disease extent, prophylactic cranial irradiation, treatment response and NPS Group were associated with PFS. Multivariate analysis results showed that NPS was identified as an independent prognostic factor for OS (Group 1: hazard ratio [HR] = 2.704, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.403-5.210; P = 0.003; Group 2: HR = 5.154, 95% CI = 2.614-10.166; P < 0.001) and PFS (Group 1: HR = 2.018, 95% CI = 1.014-4.014; P = 0.045; Group 2: HR = 3.339, 95% CI = 1.650-6.756; P = 0.001). CONCLUSION NPS is related to clinical outcomes in patients with unresectable SCLC. NPS as an innovative scoring system, can improves prediction of survival in unresectable SCLC patients.

Abstract
The ageing process is a systemic decline from cellular dysfunction to organ degeneration, with more predisposition to deteriorated disorders. Rejuvenation refers to giving aged cells or organisms more youthful characteristics through various techniques, such as cellular reprogramming and epigenetic regulation. The great leaps in cellular rejuvenation prove that ageing is not a one-way street, and many rejuvenative interventions have emerged to delay and even reverse the ageing process. Defining the mechanism by which roadblocks and signaling inputs influence complex ageing programs is essential for understanding and developing rejuvenative strategies. Here, we discuss the intrinsic and extrinsic factors that counteract cell rejuvenation, and the targeted cells and core mechanisms involved in this process. Then, we critically summarize the latest advances in state-of-art strategies of cellular rejuvenation. Various rejuvenation methods also provide insights for treating specific ageing-related diseases, including cellular reprogramming, the removal of senescence cells (SCs) and suppression of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), metabolic manipulation, stem cells-associated therapy, dietary restriction, immune rejuvenation and heterochronic transplantation, etc. The potential applications of rejuvenation therapy also extend to cancer treatment. Finally, we analyze in detail the therapeutic opportunities and challenges of rejuvenation technology. Deciphering rejuvenation interventions will provide further insights into anti-ageing and ageing-related disease treatment in clinical settings.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Lipidome disturbance has long been recognized to occur after myocardial infarction (MI). Accumulation of excessive fatty acids induces production of reactive oxygen species and consequently deteriorates cardiac injury in MI. However, the spatial and temporal lipid profile in the heart following ischemic injury remains unknown.
Purpose
We aim to uncover the temporal-spatial lipidome profile of the heart following ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury and identify circulating lipids released from injured myocardium that are potentially useful for diagnosis of ischemic heart disease.
Methods
C57/BL6 mice were subjected to 30 min myocardial ischemia followed by removal of the ligature to establish reperfusion injury. Porcine I/R injury was induced by 105 min myocardial ischemia followed by reperfusion. Human plasma was obtained from 143 post-MI patients. Myocardial lipid profiles were generated by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) in different regions (infarct, remote and peri-infarct) at different time points. Moreover, the lipids in the heart and plasma were analysed by LC-MS/MS.
Results
We observed a drastic alteration in the lipidome with distinct spatial-temporal features in the injured heart by both MALDI-MSI and LC-MS/MS. In the infarct heart tissue, as revealed by LC-MS/MS, we observed an elevation of glycerolipids that peaked at 3 hours after I/R, and a sustained elevation of phospholipids and sphingolipids up to 3 days. Similar alternations in lipid profile was observed but much weaker in the remote and peri-infarct heart tissue compared to the infarct tissue. Among those lipids, PC 32:0 detected by MALDI-MSI highly overlapped CD68 staining at a single-cell level, showing a strong correlation of PC 32:0 with macrophage infiltration in mouse hearts (R2=0.93, p<0.0001). A similar increase of PC 32:0 in the infarct area was also observed in porcine hearts following I/R injury. Surprisingly, plasma levels of PC 32:0 in the mice decreased after I/R injury. In humans, plasma levels of PC 32:0 in post-MI patients were lower than that in healthy individuals (p=0.03). Further analysis demonstrated that plasma levels of PC 32:0 determined within 72 hours after percutaneous coronary intervention were negatively correlated with the 6-month post-MI cardiac ejection fraction in patients (R2=0.08, p<0.001).
Conclusions
A temporal-spatial lipidome profile was established in heart injury by synergizing LC-MS/MS and mass spectrometry imaging. PC 32:0 levels are positively correlated with myocardial macrophage infiltration but negatively correlated with cardiac function in cardiac I/R injury. Our findings indicate that PC 32:0 is a potential biomarker for cardiac injury and the inflammatory status in the injured heart.

Abstract
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), products of neutrophil death when exposed to certain stimuli, were first proposed as a type of response to bacterial infection in infectious diseases. Since then, extensive studies have discovered its involvement in other non-infectious inflammatory diseases including thromboembolism, autoimmune diseases, and cancer. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies in the world. NET formation is closely associated with tumorigenesis, progression, and metastasis in CRC. Therefore, the application of NETs in clinical practice as diagnostic biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and prognostic predictors has a promising prospect. In addition, therapeutics targeting NETs are significantly efficient in halting tumor progression in preclinical cancer models, which further indicates its potential clinical utility in cancer treatment. This review focuses on the stimuli of NETosis, its pro-tumorigenic activity, and prospective clinical utility primarily in but not limited to CRC.

Abstract
Supplementing diets with active dry yeast (ADY, Saccharomyces cerevisiae) improves the carcass quality grade of beef cattle and the tenderness of beef. The relevant mechanisms have not been fully elucidated, but may be related to the effect of ADY on oxidative stress and the activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). To provide further insight into these mechanisms, this study evaluated the influence of ADY supplementation on growth performance, carcass traits, meat quality, concentrations of MMPs in serum (MMP-2, MMP-9 and MMP-13), oxidative stress indices and antioxidant capacity indices in beef cattle. Forty-six crossbred Simmental × Yanbian bulls (∼18 months of age, BW 436 ± 35 kg) participated in a 145-day finishing trial. ADY supplementation significantly improved marbling deposition, intramuscular fat content, and beef tenderness (P < 0.05); altered individual fatty acid proportions in the beef and increased saturated fatty acids while decreasing polyunsaturated fatty acids (P < 0.05); significantly decreased the abundance of reactive oxygen species in serum and meat; significantly increased the level of superoxide dismutase in meat (P < 0.05); tended to increase the level of catalase (P = 0.075) in serum and glutathione reductase (P = 0.066) in meat; and increased the secretion of MMPs. The improvement of beef tenderness following ADY supplementation of finishing bulls is related to the effects of ADY on the secretion of MMPs and the lowering of oxidative stress.

Abstract
Restoration of sweat glands (SwGs) represents a great issue in patients with extensive skin defects. Recent methods combining organoid technology with cell fate reprogramming hold promise for developing new regenerative methods for SwG regeneration. Here, a practical strategy for engineering functional human SwGs in vitro and in vivo is provided. First, by forced expression of the ectodysplasin-A in human epidermal keratinocytes (HEKs) combined with specific SwG culture medium, HEKs are efficiently converted into SwG cells (iSwGCs). The iSwGCs show typical morphology, gene expression pattern, and functions resembling human primary SwG cells. Second, by culturing the iSwGCs in a special 3D culturing system, SwG organoids (iSwGOs) that exhibit structural and biological features characteristic of native SwGs are obtained. Finally, these iSwGOs are successfully transplanted into a mouse skin damage model and they develop into fully functioning SwGs in vivo. Regeneration of functional SwG organoids from reprogrammed HEKs highlights the great translational potential for personalized SwG regeneration in patients with large skin defects.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Teaching hospitals are are usually larger and have a higher level of complexity. Admissions for atrial fibrillation are commonly encountered by residents and fellows and they carry a hight cost, morbidity and mortality.
Purpose
Our aim is to do a retrospective analysis of the National Impatient Sample (NIS) from 2016 to 2018 and determine the impact of the hospital teaching status and rural Vs urban location in the atrial fibrillation admission outcomes.
Methods
We combined the NIS from 2016–2018. A primary diagnosis of atrial fibrillation was identified identified. We stratified the admissions based on the hospital teaching status. We defined as primary outcomes the length of stay (LOS), in hospital mortality and total charges/cost per admission. The secondary outcomes were the rates acute kidney injury (AKI), acute blood loss anemia (ABLA) and embolic stroke (ES). We used the Charlson comorbidity index. We used univariate and multivariate linear regressions for the continuous outcomes and logistic regressions for the binary outcomes.
Results
We identified 981,739 admissions with a primary diagnosis of atrial fibrillation; 513,914 (47%) were female patients, the average age was 70.5 years. In the teaching hospitals, the LOS was 0.3 days longer [95% CI: 0.22–0.37]; p=0.000 and the total hospital charges were higher (8406.32 dollar more per admission [95% CI: 6510.89–10301.76]; p=0.000); there was no difference in mortality compared to the non-teaching institutions (OR 1.03 [95% CI: 0.87–1.21]; p=0.628). In teaching hospitals, the rates of AKI, ABLA and ES were higher (OR 1.2, 95% CI [1.12–1.27]; p=0.000), (OR 1.29, 95% CI [1.09–1.53]; p=0.003) and (OR 1.72, 95% CI [1.11–2.66]; p=0.014)respectively. In a subgroup analysis comparing urban teaching hospitals Vs urban non-teaching Vs rural non-teaching hospitals, we found that the primary outcomes were similar than the above but the results in the secondary outcomes were driven mainly by a marked difference between rural and urban institutions regardless of teaching status, which makes us think that there might be under diagnosis of atrial fibrillation related complications in lower complexity rural hospitals. The difference in costs per admission was not as high when comparing urban teaching with non-teaching hospitals (5103.96 dollar higher, 95% [CI: 3008.70–7199.23]; p=0.000).
Conclusion
Amongst admissions for atrial fibrillation, the total cost per admission was higher in teaching hospitals which was concordant with a longer LOS. Although our results show higher rates of AKI, ABLA and ES in teaching hospitals, this might be caused by underdiagnosis of such conditions in non-teaching rural institutions compared to large teaching hospital systems and these were not associated with an increase rate of mortality. There is need for more research to determine the factors impacting the higher costs of atrial fibrillation admissions amongst teaching institutions.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cardiac arrest is a condition associated with high mortality rate and can cause significant social-economical burden in United States. Our study aim is to analyze the basic demographic of patients admitted for cardiac arrest and the incidence of complications following cardiac arrest.
Methods
Using the National Inpatient Sample from 2016–2018, we identified all the hospital admissions with a primary diagnosis code at discharge for cardiac arrest during the study period. We identified the basic characteristics including age, gender, race and admitting hospital status. The set primary outcome was inpatient mortality, length of stay (LOS) and total costs of admission. The secondary outcomes were the incidence of acute kidney injury, acute blood loss anemia, acute embolism and thrombosis of deep veins of lower extremity (DVT), pulmonary embolism, non-traumatic intracranial hemorrhage, and thromboembolic stroke. Multivariable logistic regression model analysis was performed to address potential confounders. The Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) was used to adjust for the severity of each patient's co-morbidities.
Results
A total of 44,655 patients was admitted for cardiac arrest during the study period. Mean age was 64 years; 56% were men; 63% were white, 20.7% were black, 9.2% were latino, 2.8% were Asian or pacific Islander. The total in-hospital mortality was 73.5%. The average length of stay was 4.2 days and the average total costs of admission was 83,516 dollars. Among the seven demographic characteristics: age, gender, race, hospital size, hospital region, hospital teaching status, insurance type; only hospital teaching status and hospital size were found to significantly impact the mortality. Acute kidney injury was the most common complication in post-cardiac arrest patient (42%), followed by acute blood loss anemia (3.6%), pulmonary embolism (2.3%) and DVT (2.1%). Thromboembolic stroke (0.2%) and non-traumatic intracranial hemorrhage (0.1%) are less common. During subgroup analysis, acute kidney injury was also found out to be a predictive factor of increased mortality (OR 1.64, p<0.001).
Conclusion
Cardiac arrest remains one of the conditions with highest mortality rate. In our study, age, gender or race dit not impact on the outcome of cardiac arrest. Among all the complications from cardiac arrest, acute kidney injury was the most common one and was associated with higher mortality rate.

Abstract
Wound healing is a multi-step process that includes multiple cellular events such as cell proliferation, cell adhesion, and chemotactic response as well as cell apoptosis. Accumulating studies have documented the significance of stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1)/C-X-C chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) signaling in wound repair and regeneration. However, the molecular mechanism of regeneration is not clear. This review describes various types of tissue regeneration that CXCR4 participates in and how the efficiency of regeneration is increased by CXCR4 overexpression. It emphasizes the pleiotropic effects of CXCR4 in regeneration. By delving into the specific molecular mechanisms of CXCR4, we hope to provide a theoretical basis for tissue engineering and future regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Objective: To study the correlation between systemic inflammation level and emphysema degree and bone mineral density in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients and its possible mechanism. Methods: 90 patients with stable COPD who met the inclusion criteria and 50 controls in the physical examination center during the same period were recruited. All the enrolled objects have collected general clinical data, analyzed peripheral blood samples, measuring the Low-attenuation area of lung and CT value of lumbar 1 vertebra (L1-CT) by chest spiral CT. According to LAA%, COPD patients were divided into 36 cases of the non-emphysema group, 32cases of mild to moderate emphysema group, and 22 cases of severe emphysema group. The correlation between L1-CT value, LAA%, peripheral blood inflammatory factors, and pulmonary function indices in each group was analyzed and compared. Results: The HU value of L1-CT (107±32) in the COPD group was significantly lower than that in the control group (153±30), and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The higher the LAA% in COPD patients was, the lower the value of L1-CT was, and the difference between groups was statistically significant. Compared with COPD patients in the non-emphysema group, peripheral blood neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and C-reactive protein (CRP) were all increased in the emphysema group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). L1-CT was negatively correlated with LAA, PLR, NLR, and CRP while uncorrelated with serum concentration of calcium and phosphorus. Conclusion: The decrease in bone density in COPD patients is closely related to the degree of emphysema. It is associated with increased levels of systemic inflammation caused by COPD itself. Early and timely broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory treatment may have certain clinical significance for the prevention and treatment of comorbidity with osteoporosis.

Abstract
The hair follicle (HF) is a highly conserved sensory organ associated with the immune response against pathogens, thermoregulation, sebum production, angiogenesis, neurogenesis and wound healing. Although recent advances in lineage-tracing techniques and the ability to profile gene expression in small populations of cells have increased the understanding of how stem cells operate during hair growth and regeneration, the construction of functional follicles with cycling activity is still a great challenge for the hair research field and for translational and clinical applications. Given that hair formation and cycling rely on tightly coordinated epithelial-mesenchymal interactions, we thus review potential cell sources with HF-inducive capacities and summarize current bioengineering strategies for HF regeneration with functional restoration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Identifying valid biomarkers for patient selection impressively promotes the success of anti-PD-1 therapy. However, the unmet need for biomarkers in gastrointestinal (GI) cancers remains significant. We aimed to explore the predictive value of the circulating T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire for clinical outcomes in GI cancers who received anti-PD-1 therapy. METHODS 137 pre- and 79 post-treated peripheral blood samples were included. The TCR repertoire was evaluated by sequencing of complementarity-determining region 3 (CDR3) in the TRB gene. The Shannon index was used to measure the diversity of the TCR repertoire, and Morisita's overlap index was used to determine TCR repertoire similarities between pre- and post-treated samples. RESULTS Among all enrolled patients, 76 received anti-PD-1 monotherapy and 61 received anti-PD-1 combination therapy. In the anti-PD-1 monotherapy cohort, patients with higher baseline TCR diversity exhibited a significantly higher disease control rate (77.8% vs. 47.2%; hazard ratio [HR] 3.92; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.14-13.48; P = 0.030) and a longer progression-free survival (PFS) (median: 6.47 months vs. 2.77 months; HR 2.10; 95% CI 1.16-3.79; P = 0.014) and overall survival (OS) (median: NA vs. 8.97 months; HR 3.53; 95% CI 1.49-8.38; P = 0.004) than those with lower diversity. Moreover, patients with a higher TCR repertoire similarity still showed a superior PFS (4.43 months vs. 1.84 months; HR 13.98; 95% CI 4.37-44.68; P < 0.001) and OS (13.40 months vs. 6.12 months; HR 2.93; 95% CI 1.22-7.03; P = 0.016) even in the cohort with lower baseline diversity. However, neither biomarker showed predictive value in the anti-PD-1 combination therapy cohort. Interestingly, the combination of TCR diversity and PD-L1 expression can facilitate patient stratification in a pooled cohort. CONCLUSION The circulating TCR repertoire can serve as a predictor of clinical outcomes in anti-PD-1 therapy in GI cancers.

Abstract
Objective: To explore how influenza A virus (IAV) regulates airway inflammation via activating Toll-like receptor 7(TLR7)/nuclear factor of κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods: Primary bronchial epithelial cells were isolated and cultured from normal controls and COPD patients. Samples were divided into 6 groups according to different in vitro treatment, including normal epithelial cell group (A), normal cells+IAV group (B), COPD epithelial cell group (C), COPD cells+IAV group (D), normal cells+TLR7 small interference RNA (si-RNA) group (E), COPD cells+TLR7 siRNA group (F). Protein expressions of TLR7 and NF-κB were detected by Western blot after 24h co-culture with IAV and TLR7 siRNA. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF α) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results: (1) Compared with group A [0.350±0.075 and 0.470±0.034, (53.000±6.532)pg/ml and (17.000±1.625)pg/ml],TLR7, NF-κB protein expression and IL-6, TNF α levels were significantly increased in group B[0.950±0.075 and 1.090±0.078,(185.000±7.874)pg/ml and (32.000±0.838)pg/ml], group C[0.780±0.056 and 0.910±0.045,(138.000±5.100)pg/ml and 29.000±1.323)pg/ml) and group D[1.280±0.031 and 1.540±0.051,(432.000±5.734)pg/ml and (52.000±3.453)pg/ml] (all P<0.01). Compared with group C TLR7, NF-κB protein expression and IL-6, TNF α levels were significantly increased in group D (P<0.01). (2) Compared with the group A[0.530±0.023 and 0.800±0.046,(51.000±0.327)pg/ml and (14.000±0.314)pg/ml], TLR7, NF-κB protein expression and IL-6, TNF α levels were significantly decreased in the group E[0.350±0.047 and 0.510±0.067,(26.000±1.081)pg/ml and(8.000±0.526)pg/ml] (P<0.05).

Conclusion: Influenza viruses activate TLR7/NF-κB signaling pathway to regulate airway inflammation storms in patients with acute exacerbation of COPD. New therapeutic targets of acute exacerbation COPD may be studied based on these inflammation responses to influenza viruses.

Abstract
Glycerol is used as a bovine semen osmotic cryoprotectant that greatly improves the quality of frozen and thawed bovine sperm. However, high glycerol concentrations can have a toxic effect on frozen and thawed bovine sperm. Therefore, this experiment investigated the effect of replacing a portion of the glycerol in a cryoprotectant solution with crocin on the sperm apoptosis, protamine deficiency and membrane lipid oxidation of frozen and thawed Yanbian yellow cattle sperm. The experiment included a control group (6% glycerol) and four treatment groups: I (3% glycerol), II (3% glycerol +0.5 mM crocin), III (3% glycerol + 1 mM crocin) and IV (3% glycerol + 2 mM crocin). Computer assisted semen analysis was used to detect sperm motility, Hoechst 33,342, propidium iodide, and JC-1 staining were used to analyse sperm viability and mitochondrial membrane potential, chromomycin A3 staining was used to detect protamine deficiency and DNA damage, flow cytometry was used for sperm membrane lipid disorder detection and analysis, and real-time quantitative RT-qPCR was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of protamine-related genes (PRM2, PRM3), sperm acrosome-associated genes (SPACA3), oxidative stress-related genes (ROMO1) and apoptosis-related genes (BCL2, BAX). Compared to the control group, replacing a portion of glycerol with 1 mM crocin significantly improved sperm motility, plasma membrane integrity, membrane lipid disorders (p < .05) and viability, mitochondrial membrane potential, protamine deficiency (p < .01). The expression level of PRM2, PRM3, SPACA3 and BCL2 significantly increased (p < .05), while the expression levels of ROMO1 and BAX significantly decreased (p < .05). Accordingly, the BCL2/BAX ratio significantly increased (p < .05). In summary, the substitution of a portion of glycerol with crocin in cryoprotective solution improved the quality of Yanbian yellow cattle sperm after freezing and thawing.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammation of the periodontium caused by the loss of homeostasis between subgingival biofilms and susceptible hosts. Bacterial invasion into the gingival tissue and persistent infection are major events that lead to chronic inflammation. The intratissue bacterial communities are as complex as the subgingival biofilms and can also form biofilm-like structures, which will serve as a reservoir for local and systemic infections. The epithelium forms physical, chemical, and immunological barriers against invading microbes. Nevertheless, many bacterial species can invade the gingival epithelium through transcellular and paracellular pathways. In addition, both genetic and environmental factors of the hosts can affect epithelial barrier functions and thus bacterial invasion of the gingiva. In this review, current evidence for the bacterial invasion of the gingival tissue in periodontitis has been summarized, and the microbial and host factors that determine bacterial invasion of the gingiva have been reviewed.

Abstract
The aims of this pilot study are to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of conducting an enhanced nutritional support pathway including extended preoperative nutritional support and one month home enteral nutrition (HEN) for patients who underwent enhanced recovery after esophagectomy. We implemented extended preoperative nutritional support and one month HEN after discharge for patients randomized into an enhanced nutrition group and implemented standard nutritional support for patients randomized into a conventional nutrition group. Except the nutritional support program, both group patients underwent the same standardized enhanced recovery after surgery programs of esophagectomy based on published guidelines. Patients were assessed at preoperative day, postoperative day 7 (POD7), and POD30 for perioperative outcomes and nutritional status. To facilitate the determination of an effect size for subsequent appropriately powered randomized clinical trials and assess the effectiveness, the primary outcome we chose was the weight change before and after esophagectomy. Other outcomes including body mass index (BMI), lean body mass (LBM), appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI), nutrition-related complications, and quality of life (QoL) were also analyzed. The intention-to-treat analysis of the 50 randomized patients showed that there was no significant difference in baseline characteristics. The weight (-2.03 ± 2.28 kg vs. -4.05 ± 3.13 kg, P = 0.012), BMI (-0.73 ± 0.79 kg/m2 vs. -1.48 ± 1.11 kg/m2, P = 0.008), and ASMI (-1.10 ± 0.37 kg/m2 vs. -1.60 ± 0.66 kg/m2, P = 0.010) loss of patients in the enhanced nutrition group were obviously decreased compared to the conventional nutrition group at POD30. In particular, LBM (48.90 ± 9.69 kg vs. 41.96 ± 9.37 kg, p = 0.031) and ASMI (7.56 ± 1.07 kg/m2 vs. 6.50 ± 0.97 kg/m2, P = 0.003) in the enhanced nutrition group were significantly higher compared to the conventional nutrition group at POD30, despite no significant change between pre- and postoperation. In addition, European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 scores revealed that enhanced nutritional support improved the QoL of patients in physical function (75.13 ± 9.72 vs. 68.33 ± 7.68, P = 0.009) and fatigue symptom (42.27 ± 9.93 vs. 49.07 ± 11.33, P = 0.028) compared to conventional nutritional support. This pilot study demonstrated that an enhanced nutritional support pathway including extended preoperative nutritional support and HEN was feasible, safe, and might be beneficial to patients who underwent enhanced recovery after esophagectomy. An appropriately powered trial is warranted to confirm the efficacy of this approach.

Abstract
An interlaboratory study was conducted to evaluate a method for the determination of 3 Aconitum alkaloids, viz., aconitine, mesaconitine, and hypaconitine, in raw botanical material and dietary supplements. The alkaloids were extracted with diethyl ether in the presence of ammonia. After cleanup by solid-phase extraction to remove matrix interferences, the alkaloids were determined by reversed-phase liquid chromatography (LC)/UV detection at 235 nm with confirmation by LC/tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). A total of 14 blind duplicates were successfully analyzed by 12 collaborators. For repeatability, the relative standard deviation (RSDr) values ranged from 1.9 to 16.7, and for reproducibility, the RSDR values ranged from 6.5 to 33. The HorRat values were all <2 with only one exception at 2.3. All collaborating laboratories had calibration curves with correlation coefficients of >0.998. In addition, 6 collaborators performed the confirmation and were able to verify the identities of the alkaloids by using LC/MS/MS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Screening and diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy (DR) mainly depends on fundus examination, which is not an intuitive and simple screening or diagnostic method. Recently, the relationship between platelet parameters and DR has become a hot topic. Whether platelet parameters have clinical value in DR is controversial. METHODS Literature was retrieved by formal search of electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library, Scopus, and CNKI) and by hand searching of reference lists of related articles from the beginning of building database to December 2017. Review manager 5.3 was utilized to deal with statistical data. This study was registered at International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (number: CRD42018093773). RESULTS This study included 1720 DR patients, 1477 type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) without DR patients and 1456 health controls in 21 eligible studies. We found there was significant increase of platelet distribution width (PDW) level in the comparison of DR versus Control group (standard mean difference [SMD] [95% confidence interval [CI]] = 1.04 [0.68, 1.40]) and DR versus T2DM without DR group (SMD [95% CI] = 0.68 [0.40, 0.95]). For platelet count (PLT), it showed obvious decrease in the comparison of DR versus T2DM without DR group (SMD [95% CI] = -0.26 [-0.49, -0.03]) and no difference in comparison of DR versus Control (SMD [95% CI] = -0.26 [-0.51, -0.00]). Subgroup analysis showed that significant result of PDW level appeared in China and Turkey in all comparisons, while similar results of PLT only in China. In addition, PDW level was different in various DR-subtypes, obvious high level in proliferation DR. CONCLUSIONS We concluded that the guiding significance of PDW and PLT in diagnosis and monitor of DR, and especially, application of PDW to PDR management may have potential sense.

Abstract
The study aimed to determine the effects of methionine hydroxy analog chelate zinc on the tibia quality, mineral deposit, apparent retention of nutrients, and liver metallothionein (MT) expression level of aged laying hens. A total of 960 layers (Hy-Line Grey, 57 wk old) were randomly assigned into 4 groups, and each group had 8 replicates of 30 hens. During the first 2 wk, groups were fed a basal diet without extra zinc (Zn: 35.08 mg/kg). During the ensuing 14 wk, 4 levels of Zn (inorganic Zn: 80 mg/kg; organic Zn: 20, 40, 80 mg/kg) were added to the diet. The results indicated that both the Zn source and level did influence tibia strength and calcium (Ca) and Zn concentrations of tibia (P < 0.05), whereas there were no differences in the copper (Cu) and phosphorus (P) concentrations of the tibia and the tibia length (P > 0.05). Moreover, dietary supplementation with 40 or 80 mg/kg of organic Zn showed higher Zn and Ca concentrations in the tibia and higher tibia strength. The Cu concentration in the liver showed no difference among the 4 treatments, whereas the Zn concentration in the liver increased with the increasing Zn level. The apparent retention of P, iron (Fe), and manganese (Mn) was not affected by the Zn level or source (P > 0.05). However, the organic Zn group increased the apparent retention of Cu, Zn, Ca, crude protein (CP), and energy, and the group supplemented with 40 or 80 mg/kg of organic Zn obtained significant effects (P < 0.05). Moreover, dietary supplementation with 40 or 80 mg/kg organic Zn increased the MT mRNA expression of the liver at week 72, whereas 20 mg/kg of organic Zn decreased it (P < 0.05). In conclusion, this study suggested that an optimum dietary (40 mg/kg) organic Zn level plays a key role in promoting the apparent retention of minerals and nutrients, trace element deposit, and MT mRNA expression.

Abstract
Recent years, the discussion about whether platelets participant in the development of sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSHL) continues and many studies on the relationship between them have come to our attention. Some studies believe that platelet parameters have significantly changed in patients with SSHL, while some not, controversially. Therefore, to investigate the association between platelet parameters, including mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW) and platelet count (PLT), and SSHL, expecting to resolve controversy and provide clinical evidence for diagnosis and monitoring of SSHL. Basic methods: Literature was retrieved searching electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and Scopus) and searching references of related articles by hand. A total of 18 case-control studies involving 1837/1734 subjects (SSHL/control) were included. Meta-analysis showed there was no difference between the patients who suffered SSHL and healthy controls in MPV level [standard mean difference (SMD) (95% confidence interval (CI)) = 0.16 (-0.07, 0.40), I2 = 80%, P<0.00001] and PLT [SMD (95% CI) = -0.03(-0.18, 0.12), I2 = 73%, P<0.00001]. While PDW exhibited significant difference [SMD (95% CI) = 0.85 (0.20, 1.49), I2 = 93%, P<0.00001]. Subgroup analysis about geographical area suggested PLT have obvious evidence for SSHL in Eastern country [SMD (95% CI) = 0.23 (0.14, 0.33), I2 = 0%, P=0.81]. Our study did not support a correlation between MPV and SSHL, while PLT may have clinical significance for SSHL in Eastern country. With insufficient data to explore the resource of heterogeneity for PDW, there is no decisive conclusion reached.

Abstract
AIM To explore the T2-mapping signal characteristics of the thigh muscles in patients with dermatomyositis/polymyositis (DM/PM) and to investigate the correlation between thigh muscle T2 values, clinical parameters, and serum creatinine kinase (CK). MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-two patients with DM/PM proven by diagnostic criteria were enrolled in the study along with 13 healthy control subjects. Both T2-mapping and conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images were obtained in the thigh musculature of all subjects. The T2 values of thigh muscles were compared between the DM/PM patients and control groups. Thirty-one DM/PM patients were evaluated with manual muscle testing (MMT) and serum CK levels. A Spearman correlation coefficient model was used to correlate the mean T2 values and clinical assessments. The Kruskal-Wallis test and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were also utilised. p-Values <0.05 reflected statistical significance. RESULTS The T2 value of all oedematous muscles was greater on average than that of the unaffected muscles of the DM/PM patients (p<0.05) and the muscles of healthy volunteers (p<0.05). The T2 value of unaffected muscles in DM/PM patients was also greater than that of the normal muscles in healthy volunteers (p<0.05). The area under the curves (AUCs) for T2 relaxation time values was 0.72 with respective sensitivity and specificity of 72.6% and 65.4%. The mean T2 relaxation time of the 31 patients group and the MMTs (p<0.05) was correlated without serum CK levels (p>0.05). CONCLUSION T2 mapping is not only quantitatively used for subclinical muscle involvement in DM/PM, but also be used to demonstrate severity of damaged muscles in DM/PM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been indicated to be an independent predictor for all-cause mortality or adverse events in a variety of diseases. However, no consistent conclusions regarding it's relevance to patients with heart failure have been made. This meta-analysis was conducted to assess the significance of NLR in patients with heart failure. METHODS Pubmed and Embase databases were searched for eligible studies that reported the association between NLR and heart failure through September 2017. The overall hazard ratio (HR) and corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to assess the associations. RESULTS Ten studies met the eligibility criteria and a total of 5979 heart failure patients were included in the meta-analysis. The overall hazard ratio (HR) for all-cause mortality was 1.28 (95% CI 1.14-1.43) and the HR of renal dysfunction was 1.23 (95% CI 1.07-1.41) comparing the highest with the lowest category of NLR. However, the total pooled adjusted HR for in-hospital mortality (HR = 1.18, 95% CI 0.88-1.59) and rehospitalization (HR = 2.19, 95% CI 0.94-5.09) were not statistically significant. A subgroup analysis showed that sample size with moderate heterogeneity may be the origin of heterogeneity in all-cause mortality. Sensitivity analysis proved the stability of results of our meta-analysis. CONCLUSIONS The meta-analysis demonstrates that NLR is a predictor of all-cause mortality in patients with heart failure. Because the quality of the included studies varies, further well-designed studies are needed to confirm this association.

Abstract
Identifying the exact transmission route(s) of infectious diseases in indoor environments is a crucial step in developing effective intervention strategies. In this study, we proposed a comparative analysis approach and built a model to simulate outbreaks of 3 different in-flight infections in a similar cabin environment, that is, influenza A H1N1, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus (CoV), and norovirus. The simulation results seemed to suggest that the close contact route was probably the most significant route (contributes 70%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 67%-72%) in the in-flight transmission of influenza A H1N1 transmission; as a result, passengers within 2 rows of the index case had a significantly higher infection risk than others in the outbreak (relative risk [RR]: 13.4, 95% CI: 1.5-121.2, P = .019). For SARS CoV, the airborne, close contact, and fomite routes contributed 21% (95% CI: 19%-23%), 29% (95% CI: 27%-31%), and 50% (95% CI: 48%-53%), respectively. For norovirus, the simulation results suggested that the fomite route played the dominant role (contributes 85%, 95% CI: 83%-87%) in most cases; as a result, passengers in aisle seats had a significantly higher infection risk than others (RR: 9.5, 95% CI: 1.2-77.4, P = .022). This work highlighted a method for using observed outbreak data to analyze the roles of different infection transmission routes.

Abstract
Periodontitis is caused by dysbiotic subgingival bacterial communities that may lead to increased bacterial invasion into gingival tissues. Although shifts in community structures associated with transition from health to periodontitis have been well characterized, the nature of bacteria present within the gingival tissue of periodontal lesions is not known. To characterize microbiota within tissues of periodontal lesions and compare them with plaque microbiota, gingival tissues and subgingival plaques were obtained from 7 patients with chronic periodontitis. A sequencing analysis of the 16S rRNA gene revealed that species richness and diversity were not significantly different between the 2 groups. However, intersubject variability of intratissue communities was smaller than that of plaque communities. In addition, when compared with the plaque communities, intratissue communities were characterized by decreased abundance of Firmicutes and increased abundance of Fusobacteria and Chloroflexi. In particular, Fusobacterium nucleatum and Porphyromonas gingivalis were highly enriched within the tissue, composing 15% to 40% of the total bacteria. Furthermore, biofilms, as visualized by alcian blue staining and atomic force microscopy, were observed within the tissue where the degradation of connective tissue fibers was prominent. In conclusion, very complex bacterial communities exist in the form of biofilms within the gingival tissue of periodontal lesions, which potentially serve as a reservoir for persistent infection. This novel finding may prompt new research on therapeutic strategies to treat periodontitis.
