Abstract
Hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is a transcriptional factor responsible for cellular and tissue adaption to low oxygen tension. HIF-1, a heterodimer consisting of a constitutively expressed β subunit and an oxygen-regulated α subunit, regulates a series of genes that participate in angiogenesis, iron metabolism, glucose metabolism, and cell proliferation/survival. The activity of HIF-1 is controlled by post-translational modifications on different amino acid residues of its subunits, mainly the alpha subunit. Besides in ischemic stroke (see review [1]), emerging evidence has revealed that HIF-1 activity and expression of its down-stream genes, such as vascular endothelial growth factor and erythropoietin, are altered in a range of neurodegenerative diseases. At the same time, experimental and clinical evidence has demonstrated that regulating HIF-1 might ameliorate the cellular and tissue damage in the neurodegenerative diseases. These new findings suggest HIF-1 as a potential medicinal target for the neurodegenerative diseases. This review focuses on HIF-1α protein modifications and HIF-1's potential neuroprotective roles in Alzheimer's (AD), Parkinson's (PD), Huntington's diseases (HD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Abstract
Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is the current standard used in the clinical treatment of patients with diabetes. However, it has been shown that patients with similar HbA1c values may have widely different fluctuations in blood glucose values over the same period of time, including time spent in hyper- and/or hypo-glycemia. Hence, there exists a need for quantitative measures that can supplement HbA1c in managing patients with diabetes. We introduce and compare the Dynamic Stress Factor, DySF, a newly developed metric that quantifies glycemic volatility based on patient-specific glucose transition density profiles with HbA1c and with currently used glucose variability metrics in predicting severe hypoglycemia in children with type 1 diabetes. DySF, the daily weighted number of large monotonic glycemic transitions that occur within one hour, was calculated for 441 total subjects with type 1 diabetes (146 children, aged 8-14 yrs) to assess the magnitude and frequency of glucose transitions per day. Severe hypoglycemic episodes (HE) were quantified for all subjects and evaluated against HbA1c and existing measures of glucose variability, including SD, MAGE, MODD, and CONGA using logistic regression models. DySF was found to be a predictor of severe HE in children (p = 0.018) with the likelihood of a child, aged 8-14 yrs, experiencing severe hypoglycemia increasing by up to 20% with decreasing values of up to 60% of DySF. Patients of any age who had one or multiple severe hypoglycemic episodes had on average a lower DySF when compared to those with no HE. Additionally, when considering mean glucose levels, DySF/mean was a preliminary predictor of severe HE in patients with HbA1c ≤ 6.5% (p = 0.062). DySF is a dynamic, quantitative, measure of daily glucose "volatility" that separates patients, within the same strata of HbA1c, into visually distinct patient profiles. DySF can be used as a preliminary predictor of clinically severe hypoglycemia in children and "well-controlled" patients with HbA1c ≤ 6.5%.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Total joint replacement has been proposed as an endpoint in disease modifying osteoarthritis drug (DMOAD) randomized clinical trials (RCTs); however, disparities have generated concerns regarding this outcome. A combined Osteoarthritis Research Society International (OARSI)/Outcome Measures in Rheumatology (OMERACT) initiative was launched in 2004 to develop a composite index ['virtual total joint replacement' (VJR)] as a surrogate outcome for osteoarthritis (OA) progression in DMOAD RCTs. Our objective was to evaluate the prevalence of patients fulfilling different thresholds of sustained pain, reduced function, and X-ray change in existing DMOAD RCTs. DESIGN Post hoc analysis of summary data from the placebo arm of eight DMOAD RCTs. RESULTS Eight OA RCTs representing 1379 patients were included. Pain was assessed by WOMAC and/or VAS and function by WOMAC and/or Lequesne. Among six knee and two hip studies, 248 (22%) and 132 (51%) patients respectively had X-ray progression [decrease joint space width (JSW) ≥0.5 mm]. The prevalence of patients fulfilling clinical and radiographic criteria was highest (n = 163, 12%) in the least stringent scenario (pain + function ≥80 at ≥2 visits); with few patients (n = 129, 2%) in the most stringent scenario (pain + function ≥80 at ≥4 visits). Using these prevalence data, a sample size of 352-2144 per group would be needed to demonstrate a 50% difference between groups. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of patients with sustained symptomatic OA of at least a moderate degree with X-ray progression is low. Even using lenient criteria to define VJR, large patient numbers would be required to detect differences between groups in DMOAD RCTs. Investigation of the optimal cutoff threshold and combination of symptoms and radiographic change should be pursued.

Abstract
AIM To retrospectively evaluate the efficacy of embolotherapy in patients with iatrogenic traumatic uterine arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective review of all patients who underwent uterine arterial embolization in Peking Union Medical College Hospital between January 2000 and December 2010 was performed. Forty-two patients were diagnosed with a uterine vascular malformation. All patients had obstetric manipulations before. Serial beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-HCG) levels were measured to exclude gestational trophoblastic neoplasia. All patients underwent transcatheter embolization of bilateral uterine arteries. The complications, control of haemorrhage, and outcome of subsequent pregnancies were assessed. RESULTS A total of 49 embolization procedures were performed in 42 patients. Seven patients required repeated embolizations for recurrence of bleeding. The technical success rate of embolization was 100%. Bleeding was controlled in 35 of 42 patients (83%) after the first embolization procedures, and bleeding was controlled in another two patients who underwent repeat embolization at a median follow-up of 29 months (range 3 months to 5 years). The overall clinical success rate was 88% (37/42). Thirteen patients subsequently became pregnant and eight of 13 patients had uneventful intrauterine pregnancies carried to term. Seven patients had post-embolization syndrome and no other complication occurred. CONCLUSION Percutaneous embolotherapy is a safe and effective treatment for traumatic AVMs. Future pregnancy is still possible after embolization.

Abstract
Breast cancer is a leading cause of female mortality and its early detection is an important means of reducing this. The present study investigated an approach, based on fuzzy clustering, to detect small lesions, such as microcalcifications and other masses, that are hard to recognize in breast cancer screening. A total of 180 mammograms were analysed and classified by radiologists into three groups ( n = 60 per group): those with microcalcifications; those with tumours; and those with no lesions. Twenty mammograms were taken as training data sets from each of the groups. The algorithm was then applied to the data not taken for training. Analysis by fuzzy clustering achieved a mean accuracy of 99.7% compared with the radiologists' findings. It was concluded that the fuzzy clustering algorithm allowed for more efficient and accurate detection of breast lesions and may improve the early detection of breast tumours.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the patient demographic and CT imaging findings of primary osteosarcoma of the jaws. METHODS 88 primary osteosarcomas of the jaws histopathologically diagnosed during 1997-2007 were reviewed. 21 cases of CT images were reviewed. RESULTS Of 88 patients, 51 (58%) had tumours in the mandible and 37 (42%) in the maxilla. The mean age was 37.8 years (range 9-80 years). The male-to-female ratio was 1.32:1. The mean age of patients with mandibular lesions was 41.04 years and in those with maxillary lesions it was 33.3 years. CT imaging findings were available in 21 patients. In the maxilla (n = 9), all tumours (100%) arose from the alveolar ridge. In the mandible (n = 12), most tumours (9 cases, 75%), arose from the ramus and/or condyle. All except two lesions had the epicentrum within the medullary cavity of the involved bone. The presence of periosteal reaction was demonstrated in 13 cases (62%). Soft-tissue extension was present in 18 lesions (86%), with calcification identified in 13 (72%). CONCLUSIONS This study provides age, sex distribution, location and CT imaging features of primary osteosarcoma of the jaws.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Intra-abdominal transplantation of non-visceral adipose tissue in rodents, simulating increased abdominal fat in obesity, paradoxically improves glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity. We hypothesised that this improvement is due to transplant-induced enhanced uptake of fatty acids by adipose tissue, thus reducing fatty acid flux into, and triacylglycerol storage in, the liver. METHODS In Experiment 1, mice were sham-operated or received heterologous epididymal white adipose tissue (WAT; EWAT) or visceral WAT (VWAT) transplantation to the portal and splanchnic circulation regions in the visceral cavity. In Experiment 2, inguinal WAT (IWAT) or EWAT was removed and subsequently transplanted to the visceral cavity of the same mouse (autotransplant). IWAT and EWAT autotransplants were repeated in Experiment 3 and compared with heterotransplants. RESULTS Heterotransplantation of VWAT did not alter glucose tolerance, whereas auto- or hetero-transplantation of EWAT or IWAT significantly improved glucose tolerance. Transplantation-induced improvements in glucose tolerance 4 weeks after surgery coincided with decreased liver triacylglycerol, decreased portal plasma lipids and increased hepatic insulin sensitivity. By 8 weeks, these changes were apparent only in mice with autotransplantation. Heterologous EWAT transplantation-induced glucose improvement persisted without altered liver metabolism. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Increases in visceral fat, via transplantation of visceral or non-visceral adipose tissue, is not a major risk factor for glucose intolerance. In fact, there are dynamic metabolic improvements following transplantation that include decreased portal lipids and improved liver metabolism, but these improvements are transient under certain circumstances.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to prospectively investigate the correlation between CT angiographic clot load (CTACL) score, pulmonary perfusion defect (PPD) score and the global right ventricular function in the assessment of pulmonary embolism (PE) severity. METHODS 49 patients with acute PE, who underwent dual-source CT scan, were included in the study. CT angiography and perfusion imaging were performed. Data from electrocardiogram-gated coronary angiography scanning protocol were used for right ventricular function analysis. Two readers evaluated the CTACL and PPD scores using the Qanadli and Chae methods, respectively. RESULTS The PPD score had a strong positive correlation with the CTACL score (r=0.72, p<0.001) and both scores in turn had a strong positive correlation with the right ventricular/left ventricular (RV/LV) diameter ratio (r=0.60, r=0.62, p<0.001). However, the PPD score had a strong negative correlation with ejection fraction (EF) (r=-0.63, p<0.001) while the CTACL score had a low negative correlation with EF (r=-0.33, p=0.02). Between the RV/LV<1 group (n=35) and the RV/LV >1 group (n=14), the PPD score, CTACL score, pulmonary artery trunk diameter, EF and reflux of inferior vena cava were significantly different, all with p<0.001. The end-systolic volume (p=0.01) was significantly different but the end-diastolic volume (p=0.11) and stroke volume (p=0.08) showed no statistically significant difference between the two groups. CONCLUSION Therefore, considering PPD scores, CTACL scores and cardiovascular manifestations together may be helpful in the evaluation of PE severity.

Abstract
Adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein (A-FABP) is expressed in both adipose cells and macrophages. As one of the downstream genes of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR-γ), A-FABP plays an important role in the lipid metabolism of adipocytes in mammal and poultry. However, studies in A-FABP null macrophages of mice showed that A-FABP was a critical regulator of PPAR-γ and could affect the expression of PPAR-γ. The current study was designed to investigate whether the same mechanism as that in macrophages exists in chicken adipocytes. After transfection with interference and overexpression plasmids of A-FABP in chicken adipocytes for 24 h, oleate was added to the medium. Then, lipid accumulation, nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA) in the medium, and expression of lipid metabolism-related genes were detected. The results showed that in the A-FABP knockdown adipocytes, lipid accumulation was decreased at 6 h and NEFA in the medium was higher at 1 and 6 h compared with that in the control group. Moreover, gene expression levels of lipoprotein lipase, perilipin, and PPAR-γ were higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05). In the A-FABP overexpression adipocytes, lipid accumulation and expression of lipid metabolism related genes were similar to that of the control group. However, NEFA in the medium was significantly lower in the A-FABP overexpression group 1 h after adding oleate (P < 0.05). The present study suggested that the A-FABP knockdown might lead to decreased lipid accumulation and upregulated expression of PPAR-γ in chicken adipocytes.

Abstract
The first observation of the kaonic (3)He 3d→2p transition was made, using slow K- mesons stopped in a gaseous (3)He target. The kaonic atom X-rays were detected with large-area silicon drift detectors using the timing information of the K+K- pairs of ϕ-meson decays produced by the DAΦNE e+e- collider. The strong interaction shift of the kaonic (3)He 2p state was determined to be -2±2(stat)±4(syst) eV.

Abstract
AbstractSpin-coated thin films of cyclohexane-based liquid crystalline materials were used for the fabrication of electroluminescent diodes. Electroluminescence from single-component films of cyclohexane-based liquid crystalline materials was observed. Double component films composed of a cyclohexane-based liquid crystalline material and a conventional hole transport dye were shown to give improved electroluminescence performances, but emission was due to exciplexes composed of two components. Use of cyclohexane-based dye molecules was effective for suppressing the formation of inter-molecular complexes. The highest external quantum efficiency observed was 0.17%.
