Abstract
Upon myocardial infarction (MI), activated cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) begin to remodel the myocardium, leading to cardiac fibrosis and even heart failure. No therapeutic approaches are currently available to prevent the development of MI-induced pathological fibrosis. Most pharmacological trials fail from poor local drug activity and side effects caused by systemic toxicity, largely due to the lack of a heart-targeted drug delivery system that is selective for activated CFs. Here, we developed a reduced glutathione (GSH)-responsive nanoparticle platform capable of targeted delivering of drugs to activated CFs within the infarct area of a post-MI heart. Compared with systemic drug administration, CF-targeted delivery of PF543, a sphingosine kinase 1 inhibitor identified in a high-throughput antifibrotic drug screening, had higher therapeutic efficacy and lower systemic toxicity in a MI mouse model. Our results provide a CF-targeted strategy to deliver therapeutic agents for pharmacological intervention of cardiac fibrosis.

Abstract
The cytokinin two-component signal transduction system (TCS) is involved in many biological processes, including hormone signal transduction and plant growth regulation. Although cytokinin TCS has been well characterized in Arabidopsis thaliana, its role in tomato remains elusive. In this study, we characterized the diversity and function of response regulator (RR) genes, a critical component of TCS, in tomato. In total, we identified 31 RR genes in the tomato genome. These SlRR genes were classified into three subgroups (type-A, type-B and type-C). Various stress-responsive cis-elements were present in the tomato RR gene promoters. Their expression responses under pesticide treatment were evaluated by transcriptome analysis. Their expression under heat, cold, ABA, salinity and NaHCO3 treatments was further investigated by qRT-PCR and complemented with the available transcription data under these treatments. Specifically, SlRR13 expression was significantly upregulated under salinity, drought, cold and pesticide stress and was downregulated under ABA treatment. SlRR23 expression was induced under salt treatment, while the transcription level of SlRR1 was increased under cold and decreased under salt stress. We also found that GATA transcription factors played a significant role in the regulation of SlRR genes. Based on our results, tomato SlRR genes are involved in responses to abiotic stress in tomato and could be implemented in molecular breeding approaches to increase resistance of tomato to environmental stresses.

Abstract
AIM To explore the value of B-flow (B-mode blood flow) imaging and its enhanced mode in perforator mapping. MATERIALS AND METHODS Before surgery, B-flow imaging, enhanced B-flow imaging, colour Doppler flow imaging (CDFI), and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) were used to detect the skin-perforating vessels and small vessels in the fat layer of the donor site. Taking the intra-operative results as the reference standard, the diagnostic consistency and efficiency of the four modes were compared. Statistical analysis was performed using the Friedman M-test, Cochran's Q-test, and the Z-test. RESULTS Thirty flaps were excised, with 34 skin-perforating vessels and 25 non-skin-perforating vessels, as confirmed during surgery. In order of the number of skin-perforating vessels detected, the results showed that enhanced B-flow imaging detected more vessels than B-flow imaging and CDFI (all p<0.05), CEUS detected more vessels than B-flow imaging and CDFI (all p<0.05), B-flow imaging detected more vessels than CDFI (p<0.05). All four modes had remarkable and satisfactory diagnostic consistency and effectiveness, but B-flow imaging was the best (sensitivity 100%, specificity 92%, Youden index 0.92). In order of the number of small vessels in the fat layer detected, the results showed that enhanced B-flow imaging detected more vessels than CEUS, B-flow imaging, and CDFI (all p<0.05). CEUS detected more vessels than B-flow imaging and CDFI (all p<0.05). CONCLUSION B-flow imaging is an alternative method for perforator mapping. Enhanced B-flow imaging can reveal the microcirculation of flaps.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To review the biology, drug development, and clinical data regarding the efficacy and safety of belzutifan (MK-6482), a small molecule inhibitor of HIF-2α. RECENT FINDINGS Belzutifan, a second-generation HIF-2α inhibitor, was shown to provide clinically meaningful benefit in the treatment of VHL-associated tumors (including ccRCC, pancreatic lesions as well as neuroendocrine tumor, and CNS hemangioblastomas). The recommended dose of belzutifan is 120 mg orally daily and half-life is 14 h. In pretreated ccRCC, belzutifan achieved disease control rate of 80% in phase I trial. The most common side effects include anemia and hypoxia related symptoms. Investigation into the important role HIF-2α plays in the expression of genes associated with angiogenesis, erythropoiesis, carcinogenesis, and progression of tumors and the discovery of structural vulnerability within HIF-2α have resulted in the development of a new therapy that has demonstrated efficacy and safety in recent clinical trials. Further research is ongoing to optimize therapeutic benefits from this new exciting therapeutic modality and to improve the outcome of HIF-2α-driven tumors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Changes in the oral cavity can reflect other changes throughout the body. This study aimed to investigate the association of dental caries with muscle mass, muscle strength, and sarcopenia, and also to describe the microbial diversity, composition, and community structure of severe dental caries and sarcopenia. DESIGN Cross-sectional study based on a Chinese population aged from 50 to 85 years. SETTING Communities from Lanxi City, Zhejiang Province, China. PARTICIPANTS A total of 1,442 participants aged from 50 to 85 years from a general community (62.8% women; median age 61.0 [interquartile range: 55.0, 68.0]). MEASUREMENTS Dental caries was assessed by the decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT) index. Sarcopenia was defined as the presence of both low muscle mass (assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scanning) and low muscle strength (assessed by handgrip strength). Multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the association of dental caries with muscle mass, muscle strength, and sarcopenia. Fecal samples underwent 16S rRNA profiling to evaluate the diversity and composition of the gut microbiota in patients with severe dental caries and/or sarcopenia. RESULTS In the fully adjusted logistic models, dental caries was positively associated with low muscle strength (DMFT ≥ 7: OR, 1.61; 95% CI, 1.25-2.06), and sarcopenia (DMFT ≥ 7: OR, 1.51; 95% CI, 1.01-2.26), but not low muscle mass. Severe dental caries was positively associated with higher alpha-diversity indices (richness, chao1, and ACE, all p < 0.05) and associated with beta-diversity based on Bray-Curtis distance (p = 0.006). The severe dental caries group and the sarcopenia group overlapped with 11 depleted and 13 enriched genera. CONCLUSION Dental caries was positively associated with low muscle strength and sarcopenia but not muscle mass, and this association was more pronounced in male individuals. Significant differences were observed in gut microbiota composition both in severe dental caries and sarcopenia, and there was an overlap of the genera features. Future longitudinal studies are needed to clarify causal relationships.

Abstract
Ricinus communis is an important oilseed crop worldwide and is also considered one of the best potential plants for salt-affected soil improvement in northeast China. However, little is known about photosynthesis and carbohydrate metabolism in this plant, nor the distribution of carbohydrates in cotyledons and roots under salinity stress. In the present study, seedling growth, gas exchange parameters (PN , E, gs and Ci ), carbohydrate (fructose, sucrose, glucose, soluble sugar and starch) metabolism and related enzymes and genes were measured in Ricinus plants. Under salt stress, PN of cotyledons decreased significantly (P < 0.05), resulting in weak photosynthetic capacity. Furthermore, salt stress increased sucrose and glucose content in cotyledons, but decreased soluble sugar and starch content. However, sucrose increased and starch decreased in roots. This may be correlated with the increasing sugar metabolism under salinity, including notable changes in sugar-related enzyme activities (SPS, SuSy, α-amylase and β-amylase) and gene expression of RcINV, RcSUS, RcAmY, RcBAM and RcGBE1. The results suggest that salinity reduces photosynthesis of cotyledons, alters carbohydrate allocation between cotyledons and roots and also promotes starch utilization in cotyledons and starch biosynthesis in roots, leading to a functional imbalance between cotyledons and roots. Together, these findings provide insights into the crucial role of sugar metabolism in improving salt-tolerance of Ricinus during the early seedling growth stage.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most frequent malignancies among women worldwide. Accumulating evidence indicates that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) may affect BC progression. Exosomes, a class of small membrane vesicles, have been reported to promote tumor progression through transporting proteins, mRNAs, lncRNAs and some other small molecules. However, the interaction between exosome-related lncRNAs and the microenvironment of malignancies is unclear. Hence, we proceeded to investigate the relationship between exosome-related lncRNAs and BC microenvironment. 121 exosome-associated genes were extracted from ExoBCD database. Then, the Pearson analysis was used to screened out the exosome-related lncRNAs. After that, 15 exosome-related differentially expressed lncRNAs were identified by the correlation with BC prognosis. According to the sum of the expression of these 15 lncRNAs, extracted from The Cancer Genome Atlas, and the regression coefficients, an exosome-related lncRNAs signature was developed by using Cox regression analysis. With the median risk score of the training set, the patients in training and validation sets were separated to low-risk group and high-risk group. Subsequently, the lncRNA-mRNA co-expression network was constructed. The distinct enrichment pathways were compared among the different risk groups by using the R package clusterProfiler. The ESTIMATE method and ssGESA database were adopted to study the ESTIMATE Score and immune cell infiltration. Eventually, the expression of immune checkpoint associated genes, microsatellite instable and the immunophenoscore were further analyzed between different risk groups. Different risk groups exhibited different prognosis, with lower survival rate in the high-risk group. The differentially expressed genes between the different risk groups were enriched in biological processes pathways as well as immune responses. BC patients in high-risk group were identified with lower scores of ESTIMATE scores. Subsequently, we noticed that the infiltrating levels of aDCs, B cells, CD8+ T cells, iDCs, DCs, Neutrophils, macrophages, NK cells, pDCs, Tfh, T helper cells, TIL and Tregs were obvious elevated with the decreased risk score in training and validation cohorts. And some immune signatures were significantly activated with the decreased risk score in both cohorts. Eventually, the exosome-associated lncRNAs risk model was demonstrated to accurately predict immunotherapy response in patients with BC. The results of our study suggest that exosome-related lncRNAs risk model has close relationship with prognosis and immune cells infiltration in BC patients. These findings could make a great contribution to improving BC immunotherapy.

Abstract
Background Breast cancer (BC) is considered to be one of the primary causes of cancer deaths in women. Cuproptosis was suggested to play an important role in tumor proliferation and tumor immune microenvironment. Therefore, an investigation was conducted to identify the relationship between cuproptosis-related long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and BC prognosis. Method Based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), nine cuproptosis-related lncRNAs were identified by Pearson's analysis and Cox regression analysis to create a cuproptosis-related lncRNA signature. Subsequently, patients with BC were divided into high-risk and low-risk groups. The Kaplan-Meier curves and a time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis were employed to elucidate the predictive capability of the signature. After that, the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis was conducted by Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA), and the lncRNA-mRNA co-expression network was established by Cytoscape software. Furthermore, the ESTIMATE score was calculated, and the immune cell type component analysis was conducted. Eventually, immunotherapy response analysis was applied to identify the predictive power of cuproptosis-related lncRNAs to tumor immunotherapy response, including immune checkpoint gene expression levels, tumor mutational burden (TMB), and microsatellite instability (MSI). Results Patients with BC in the low-risk groups showed better clinical outcomes. The KEGG pathways in the high-risk groups were mainly enriched in immune response and immune cell activation. Furthermore, the ESTIMATE scores were higher in the low-risk groups, and their immune cell infiltrations were dramatically different from those of the high-risk groups. The low-risk groups were shown to have higher infiltration levels of CD8+ T cells and TMB-high status, resulting in better response to immunotherapies. Conclusion The findings of this study revealed that the nine-cuproptosis-related lncRNA risk score was an independent prognostic factor for BC. This signature was a potential predictor for BC immunotherapy response. What we found will provide novel insight into immunotherapeutic treatment strategies in BC.

Abstract
The susceptibility to trace metals and legacy POPs is different between terrestrial and marine mammals. In this study, we established the first cell line from Indo-Pacific finless porpoises and compared the cellular responses of skin fibroblast cells from Pygmy killer whales, Pantropic spotted dolphins, Indo-Pacific finless porpoises, mice, and humans following exposure to copper, methylmercury, cadmium, PCB126, PCB153, and BDE47 to better understand the interspecies sensitivities of mammals to chemical pollutants. We conducted a risk assessment by comparing no-observed effect concentrations (NOEC), lowest-observed effect concentrations (LOEC), and half maximal effective concentrations (EC50) from cell viability assays and previously reported pollutant body burdens in mammals. Based on the in vitro data, Indo-Pacific finless porpoises were more sensitive to copper and methylmercury than other mammals. PCB153 exposure reduced cell viability in all mammals except humans, while PCB126 was more potent, with 13.33 μg/mL exposure reducing cell viability in all mammals. In contrast, BDE47 exposure reduced cell viability only in terrestrial mammals in addition to pantropic spotted dolphin. Based on the in vitro data and the natural context of metal concentrations, both methylmercury and cadmium posed a higher risk to cetaceans than human, while copper posed a lower risk to cetaceans. All three legacy POPs (PCB126, PCB153, and BDE47) posed minor risk to cetaceans for short-term exposure. This study demonstrated that a species-specific in vitro model may provide more accurate information on the potential risk of pollutants to mammals. However, due to the bioamplification of POPs and their potential impact on the endocrine system and immune system of cetaceans, risk assessment with long-term exposure with more in vitro models should be further studied.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of lidocaine plaster combined with gabapentin in the treatment of herpes zoster neuralgia (HZN). Methods: A total of 93 patients diagnosed with HZN from June 4, 2021 to January 5, 2022 in the Department of Pain Clinic of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital were selected, and their gender was not limited. They were divided into 3 groups by random number table method: group A (n=32) prescribed gabapentin alone, group B (n=30) lidocaine plaster alone, and group C (n=31) lidocaine plaster combined with gabapentin. After excluding patients who did not meet the criteria, there were 28 cases in group A, 28 cases in group B, and 29 cases in group C. The visual analogue scale (VAS), the short-form McGill pain questionnaire (SF-MPQ) score, and drug dosage and adverse reaction in each group at pre-treatment (T0), post-treatment in one week (T1), in two weeks (T2), in four weeks (T4), and in 12 weeks (T12) were recorded and evaluated; Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score and Medical Outcomes Study short-form 36 (SF-36) score at T0, T4, and T12 were recorded. Adverse reactions and drug dosage in each group were documented. Repeated measures ANOVA was used to compare the curative effects of the three groups at different time points before and after treatment. Results: The ages of the three groups of patients were (67.8±10.0), (60.9±11.4) and (63.5±12.5) years old respectively (P=0.318), and the proportions of men were 46.4 % (13 cases), 35.7% (10 cases) and 44.8 % (13 cases), respectively (P=0.472). After treatment, the VAS scores and SF-MPQ scores of patients in the three groups were decreased at each time point compared with those before treatment (all P<0.05), the VAS and SF-MPQ scores of patients in group C at T12 time point were 1.2±0.4 and 5.2±2.4 respectively, which were lower than those of patients in groups A and B (both P<0.05). The dosages of gabapentin and lidocaine plaster in group C were lower than those in groups A and B at each time point after treatment (all P<0.05). The PSQI scores of patients in the three groups at T4 and T12 were lower than those before treatment (all P<0.05). The PSQI scores of patients in group C at T4 and T12 were 5.7±1.2 and 4.5±1.2, which were lower than those of patients in groups A and B. (all P<0.05), The SF-36 scores of patients in three groups at T4 and T12 were higher than those before treatment (all P<0.05), and the SF-36 scores of group C at T4 and T12 were 91.7±8.5, 93.1±6.3, which were higher than that of patients in groups A and B (both P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the three groups were 35.7% (9 cases), 10.7% (3 cases), and 13.8% (4 cases) respectively (P<0.05), the adverse reactions in groups B and C were less than those in group A (P<0.05), and there was no statistical difference between groups B and C (P>0.05). Conclusion: Lidocaine plaster combined with gabapentin has better analgesic effect in the treatment of HZN, with less incidence of adverse reactions, and can reduce the dosage of systemic drugs, improve patients' sleep and quality of life, and thus could provide a safe and effective method for the treatment of HZN.

Abstract
The dissolved carbon concentration, which is responsible for aquatic ecosystem productivity and water quality, is tightly coupled with hydrological processes. Excess dissolved carbon may exacerbate eutrophication and hypoxia in aquatic ecosystems and lead to deterioration of water quality. Storm events dominate the dynamics of dissolved carbon concentrations, and this nonlinear behavior exhibits significant time scale dependence. Here, we identified inter- and intra-event variability in the dissolved carbon concentration-discharge (C-Q) relationship in an agriculture-intensive catchment. The driving factors of C-Q hysteresis patterns for dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and organic carbon (DOC) were quantified by redundancy analysis combined with hierarchical partitioning. At the inter-event scale, DIC exhibited mainly clockwise hysteresis, indicating an exhaustible, proximal source (e.g., groundwater). However, DOC hysteresis was generally counter-clockwise, indicating distal and plentiful sources (e.g., soil water) in the agricultural catchment. Hierarchical partitioning showed that total rainfall, peak discharge and flood intensity explained 28.38% of the total variation in C-Q hysteresis for DIC and 39.87% for DOC at the inter-event scale. At the intra-event scale, time series analysis of dissolved carbon concentration and discharge indicated the interconversion of supply limitation to transport limitation, which depends on the activation of the specific DIC or DOC source zones. These findings provide significant insights into understanding the dynamics of dissolved carbon during storm periods and are important for targeted watershed management practices aimed at reducing carbon loading to surface waters.

Abstract
Objective Postoperative delirium (POD) seriously affects recovery of older persons, increasing their mortality rate after surgery. We aimed to evaluate preoperative oral saline administration on postoperative delirium in older persons undergoing spinal decompression. Design A randomised controlled trial in a large tertiary hospital. Setting and Participants A total of 76 older persons (≧65 years old) undergoing spinal surgery from May 2020 to January 2021. Methods Older persons (65–83 years old) who underwent elective spinal canal decompression were randomly grouped into either the control group (n = 38) or the intervention group (n = 38). The control group was forbidden from drinking 8 hours prior to the operation while the intervention group was administered 5 mL·kg−1 of normal saline 2 hours before anesthesia. Hemodynamic indicators, diagnostic biomarkers, preoperative mini-mental status scores, and intraoperative fluid dynamics were recorded at baseline and at various postoperative timepoints. Subjects were then scored for POD and postoperative pain. Results S100β protein was lowered in S1 (FS1 = 12.289, P <0.001) and S2 (FS2 = 12.440, P <0.001) in the intervention group while mean arterial blood pressure (FT1= 42.997, P<0.001) and heart rate (FT1= 8.974, P=0.004) were increased. The Ln c-reactive protein of the intervention group was lowered 1 day postoperatively (FS2 = 6.305, P = 0.014). The incidence of postoperative delirium in the control group was higher than in the intervention group (27.8% vs 8.3%, χ2 = 4.547, P = 0.033). Conclusion Preoperative oral saline can reduce the incidence of postoperative delirium in older persons by minimizing perioperative hemodynamic fluctuations and central nervous system damage.

Abstract
BackgroundCell metabolic reprogramming is a hallmark of tumor prognosis, and fatty acid metabolism (FAM) plays a crucial role in the tumor microenvironment (TME). However, the relationship between FAM, TME, and prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients remains elusive.MethodsWe extracted the single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq) and bulk transcriptome data of AML patients from the TCGA and GEO databases and assessed the relationship between FAM, TME, and AML patient prognosis. We also performed functional enrichment (FE) assay to evaluate the significance of FAM in anti-AML immunosurveillance.ResultsOur scRNA-Seq analysis revealed that the leukemic stem cell (LSC)-enriched population exhibited elevated levels of FAM-related genes. Using these FAM-related genes, we developed a prognostic model that accurately estimated AML patient outcome. FE analysis showed that FAM was strongly related to alterations of TME-based immunosurveillance in AML patients. More importantly, we demonstrated that FAM inhibition via pharmaceutical targeting of PLA2G4A, a highly expressed FAM gene in AML patients with poor prognosis, enhanced the NK cell-mediated immunosurveillance in leukemia cells.ConclusionsLeukemic stem cell (LSC)-enriched population exhibited elevated levels of FAM-related genes. We have successfully established the FAM formula that predicts AML patient prognosis and alterations in the TME-based immunosurveillance. We also found that PLA2G4A was a highly expressed FAM gene in AML patients with poor prognoses. Pharmaceutical targeting of PLA2G4A increased the expression of NKG2DL in leukemia cells in vitro and thus enhanced the NK cell-mediated immunosurveillance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pyroptosis is a novel identified form of inflammatory cell death that is important in the development and progression of various diseases, including malignancies. However, the relationship between pyroptosis and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is still unclear. Therefore, we started to investigate the potential prognostic value of pyroptosis-associated genes in TNBC. METHODS Thirty-three genes associated with pyroptosis were extracted from previous publications, 30 of which were identified in the Molecular Taxonomy of Breast Cancer International Consortium (METABRIC) cohort. On the basis of the 30 pyroptosis-related genes, patients with TNBC were divided into three subtypes through unsupervised cluster analysis. The prognostic value of each pyroptosis-associated gene was assessed, and six genes were selected by univariate and LASSO Cox regression analysis to establish a multigene signature. According to the median value of risk score, patients with TNBC in the training and validation cohorts were separated to high- and low-risk sets. The enrichment analysis was conducted on the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of the two risk sets using R clusterProfiler package. Moreover, the ESTIMATE score and immune cell infiltration were calculated by the ESTIMATE and CIBERSORT methods. After that, the correlation among pyroptosis-associated risk score and the expression of immune checkpoint-associated genes as well as anti-cancer drugs sensitivities were further analyzed. RESULTS In the training and validation cohorts, patients with TNBC in the high-risk set were found in a lower survival rate than those in the low-risk set. Combined with the clinical characteristics, the pyroptosis-related risk score was identified as an independent risk factor for the prognosis of patients with TNBC. The enrichment analysis indicated that the DEGs between the two risk groups were mainly enriched by immune responses and activities. In addition, patients with TNBC in the low-risk set were found to have a higher value of ESTIMATE score and a higher rate of immune cell infiltration. Finally, the expression levels of five genes [programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1); cytotoxic t-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA4); lymphocyte activation gene 3 (LAG3); T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains (TIGIT)] associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors were identified to be higher in the low-risk sets. The sensitivities of some anti-cancer drugs commonly used in breast cancer were found closely related to the pyroptosis-associated risk model. CONCLUSION The pyproptosis-associated risk model plays a vital role in the tumor immunity of TNBC and can be applied to be a prognostic predictor of patients with TNBC. Our discovery will provide novel insight for TNBC immunotherapies.

Abstract
Diarrhoeal disease continues to be a major health problem in many parts of the world, especially in developing countries, mainly due to the lack of access to sanitation, water, and hygienic living conditions. Identifying the determinants of diarrhoeal infections continues to be a challenge in developing countries. In this study, we ascertained the factors behind diarrhoea among inhabitants of informal settlements in the city of Durban, South Africa. Prevalence of diarrhoea in the study area varied between 7-year historical clinical records and data collected during the current study (primary data), with the primary data giving the highest monthly prevalence odds ratio (POR) up to 18.1 (±1.6)%. The main factors associated with diarrhoeal infections were open defaecation (POR = 1.8; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.9-3.12), use of shared sanitation (POR = 1.7; 95%; CI: 1.05-2.26), and exposure to faecal matter around the homes (POR = 1.69; 95% CI: 1.25-3.10). Several other factors were also determined to be associated with diarrhoeal infections, such as hygiene practices in the communities, the non-treatment of water before use, and the presence of solid waste and faecal materials around the households. This study shows that diarrhoeal disease infections in informal settlements could be multifactorial; therefore, a multifactorial approach is needed to reduce these infections. These could include improving education on hygiene practices within the home setting as well as in public places, such as the community ablution blocks.

Abstract
UNLABELLED To explore the association of air pollution and hip fracture and related mortality in the UK. The average levels of PM2.5, PM10, and NO2 exhibited a positive association with hip fracture and short-term mortality while O3 did not. Our study highlights the association of air pollution and hip fracture. INTRODUCTION Until now, the influence of air pollution on bone mineral density and associated fractures has drawn little attention, and the consequences are controversial. To investigate the association between air pollution and hip fracture incidence and related short-term mortality. METHODS We constructed a cohort of all the National Hip Fracture Database beneficiaries (513,540 patients) in the UK from 2013 to 2018. Per year averages of PM2.5, PM10, O3, NO2, and SO2 were estimated according to the person's residence. The incidence rate ratio with 95% confidence interval and all-cause mortality within 30-day post-fracture (ACM30D) rate ratios were estimated using generalized additive models. RESULTS The average levels of PM2.5, PM10, and NO2 exhibited a positive association with the incidence rate of hip fracture (IHF) and ACM30D. Whereas, this association was negative for O3 levels. Each increase of 5 μg per cubic meter in PM2.5, PM10, and NO2 leads to 9.5%, 9.2%, and 4.1% higher hip fracture rate, respectively, and also 9.3%, 8.3%, and 2.9% higher ACM30D, respectively. When we restricted the analysis to low-level exposure of air pollutants, similar results were obtained. CONCLUSION Our study found a moderate, positive association between IHF, ACM30D, and the levels of specific air pollutants in the entire National Hip Fracture Database population. A reduction in the levels of PM2.5, PM10, and NO2 may decrease the hip fracture incidence rate and associated short-term mortality in older adults. Our study highlights the influence of air pollution on hip fracture.

Abstract
Critically endangered species are usually restricted to small and isolated populations. High inbreeding without gene flow among populations further aggravates their threatened condition and reduces the likelihood of their long-term survival. Chinese alligator (Alligator sinensis) is one of the most endangered crocodiles in the world and has experienced a continuous decline over the past ca. 1 million years. In order to identify the genetic status of the remaining populations and aid conservation efforts, we assembled the first high-quality chromosome-level genome of Chinese alligator and explored the genomic characteristics of three extant breeding populations. Our analyses revealed the existence of at least three genetically distinct populations, comprising two breeding populations in China (Changxing and Xuancheng) and one breeding population in an American wildlife refuge. The American population does not belong to the last two populations of its native range (Xuancheng and Changxing), thus representing genetic diversity extinct in the wild and provides future opportunities for genetic rescue. Moreover, the effective population size of these three populations has been continuously declining over the past 20 ka. Consistent with this decline, the species shows extremely low genetic diversity, a large proportion of long runs of homozygous fragments, and mutational load across the genome. Finally, to provide genomic insights for future breeding management and conservation, we assessed the feasibility of mixing extant populations based on the likelihood of introducing new deleterious alleles and signatures of local adaptation. Overall, this study provides a valuable genomic resource and important genomic insights into the ecology, evolution, and conservation of critically endangered alligators.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Our previous research revealed the relative local aggressiveness of eyelid and periocular squamous cell carcinoma (EPSCC), but its distinct genetic characteristics involved remain unknown. OBJECTIVES We conducted this study based on next-generation sequencing to identify the genetic distinctiveness of EPSCC and damaging mutations for possible etiology and poor prognosis. METHODS We performed sequencing using a 556-gene panel (smartonco) in 48 EPSCCs. Cox hazards model was applied to explore mutated genes that increase risk of metastasis and death. Pathogenesis of the mutations was predicted by sequence alignment algorithms. RESULTS The most commonly mutated genes were KMT2C (N=17, 35%), LRP1B (N=14, 29%), KMT2D (N=12, 25%), PTCH1(N=10, 21%) and TP53(N=10, 21%). DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes (42%) like MSH6(19%) and MLH3(12%) were among the most frequently mutated genes. Cell cycle regulators including TP53(21%) and CDKN2A (10%) were less frequently mutated than in other squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs). Ultra violet exposure, MMR deficiency and aging were the main etiology. Of note, KMT2C has a deleterious mutation hotspot. Patients burdened with MSH6 mutation has a higher risk of overall metastasis (P=0.045, HR=5.165) and nodal metastasis (P=0.022, HR=14.038). Moreover, a hotspot mutation MSH6E52A brought an even higher risk of nodal metastasis (P=0.011, HR=18.745). CONCLUSIONS EPSCCs displayed a unique mutation profile from cutaneous SCCs and mucosal SCCs. We have identified novel damaging mutations in epigenetic regulators like KMT2C boosted early onset of EPSCCs in addition to UVR, aging or MMR deficiency. And malfunction of MMR genes worsened prognosis.

Abstract
The gut microbiome is a unique marker for cetaceans’ health status, and the microbiome composition of their skin wounds can indicate a potential infection from their habitat. Our study provides the first comparative analysis of the microbial communities from gut regions and skin wounds of an individual Indo-Pacific finless porpoise (Neophocaena phocaenoides). Microbial richness increased from the foregut to the hindgut with variation in the composition of microbes. Fusobacteria (67.51% ± 5.10%), Firmicutes (22.00% ± 2.60%), and Proteobacteria (10.47% ± 5.49%) were the dominant phyla in the gastrointestinal tract, while Proteobacteria (76.11% ± 0.54%), Firmicutes (22.00% ± 2.60%), and Bacteroidetes (10.13% ± 0.49%) were the dominant phyla in the skin wounds. The genera Photobacterium, Actinobacillus, Vibrio, Erysipelothrix, Tenacibaculum, and Psychrobacter, considered potential pathogens for mammals, were identified in the gut and skin wounds of the stranded Indo-Pacific finless porpoise. A comparison of the gut microbiome in the Indo-Pacific finless porpoise and other cetaceans revealed a possible species-specific gut microbiome in the Indo-Pacific finless porpoise. There was a significant difference between the skin wound microbiomes in terrestrial and marine mammals, probably due to habitat-specific differences. Our results show potential species specificity in the microbiome structure and a potential threat posed by environmental pathogens to cetaceans.

Abstract
With the development of researches on the relationship between periodontal health and general health, more and more evidences showed that periodontitis was closely related to oculopathy, while the mechanisms were not very clear at present. This article will focus on the influences of periodontitis on the occurrence and development of various oculopathy such as diabetic retinopathy and senile macular degeneration, and discuss the possible mechanisms of the influence by periodontitis. This will provide a theoretical basis for the new ideas on prevention and treatment of oculopathy.

Abstract
BackgroundTumor necrosis factor-alpha inhibitors (TNFi), such as golimumab (GLM), are widely prescribed for treatment of chronic immune-mediated rheumatic diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Long-term persistence of GLM response in these diseases has previously been described from individual randomized controlled trials.1-5 While treatment retention is considered an important factor for disease progression, health care utilization, and overall quality of life, and has previously been described, the probability of retention on GLM treatment in these trials has not been evaluated.ObjectivesTo evaluate probability of GLM treatment retention over a 5-year period in adult patients with immune-mediated rheumatic diseases, by indication and line of therapy, using pooled data from five Phase III randomized controlled clinical trials.MethodsUsing data prospectively collected from five Phase III studies, this post-hoc analysis evaluated subcutaneous (SC) GLM (50 mg or 100 mg every 4 weeks) for up to 5 years in participants with RA (GO-BEFORE,1,6 GO-AFTER2,7 and GO-FORWARD3,8), PsA (GO-REVEAL4,9), and AS (GO-RAISE5,10). Four of the five studies (GO-BEFORE, GO-FORWARD, GO-REVEAL and GO-RAISE) were pooled to examine 1st-line GLM therapy, while the remaining study (GO-AFTER) was used to examine 2nd-line (i.e., ≥ 1 line) GLM therapy in participants who had previously received and discontinued at least one other TNFi (etanercept, adalimumab, or infliximab) for any reason. Log-rank tests were performed to estimate retention rates by indication and line of therapy. Similarly, Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to estimate the probability of GLM retention over time.ResultsAmong the 2228 participants enrolled in the 5 trials, 1797 participants had received GLM as1st-line treatment (RA = 1050; PsA = 394; AS = 353) and 431 participants had received GLM as 2nd-line treatment. Compared to the pooled 1st-line GLM analysis cohort, more participants receiving 2nd-line GLM were female (78.7% vs 62.2%), were > 50 years (61.5% vs 41.2%), and had a longer disease duration (median of 9.2 years vs 3.7 years). In the pooled 1st-line studies, GLM treatment retention remained high over five years, with an overall probability of retention of 87.8% (95% confidence interval [CI], 86.2–89.2) at Year 1 (Week 52), 80.9% (79.0–82.6) at Year 2 (Week 104), 77.3% (75.3–79.2) at Year 3 (Week 156), 73.5% (71.4–75.5) at Year 4 (Week 208) and 69.8% (67.6–71.9) at Year 5 (Week 252). GLM retention rates were similar across the four 1st-line GLM studies with no notable differences observed by indication over time (Figure 1, panel A). Treatment retention was better in participants using GLM as a 1st-line therapy compared to 2nd-line therapy (Figure 1, panel B), with a probability of retention at 5 years (Week 252) with 2nd-line therapy of 41.6% (95% CI: 36.8-46.3).Figure 1.ConclusionIn this post-hoc analysis of prospectively collected clinical trial data, the probability of 1st-line GLM treatment retention at 5-years was consistently high across all rheumatic indications (RA, PsA and AS). Probability of long-term GLM treatment retention with 2nd-line therapy, while lower than 1st-line therapy, also remained favorable. Collectively, these data support the value of GLM as a 1st- or 2nd-line therapy in these chronic immune-mediated rheumatic diseases.References[1]Emery P, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundThe nomenclature from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is considered to identify more cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in general population, and patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) carry an excess risk for CVD.ObjectivesTo compare MAFLD with NAFLD in identifying CVD risk in RA patients.MethodsClinical data from a Chinese RA cohort were retrospectively analyzed. Hepatic steatosis was defined by abdominal ultrasound examination. CVD risk in RA patients was estimated by the Prediction for Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Risk in China.ResultsAmong 513 included RA patients, 78.4% were female and the mean ± SD age was 51.8 ± 12.6 years. The prevalence of MAFLD and NAFLD was 21.4% and 20.5%, respectively. 10.9% RA patients concomitated with CVD events and 32.4% had a high 10-year CVD risk. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that both MAFLD and NAFLD were associated with an increase in CVD events (MAFLD: AOR = 2.303 [95% CI 1.197, 4.429]; NAFLD: AOR = 2.478 [95% CI 1.185, 4.779] and high 10-year CVD risk (MAFLD: AOR = 3.184 [95% CI 1.777, 5.705]; NAFLD: AOR = 2.870 [95% CI 1.597, 5.156]; all p < 0.05). The NRI and IDI was -0.011 (95% CI -0.025, 0.003) and -0.002 (95% CI -0.007, 0.002) for CVD events, and 0.012 (95% CI -0.014, 0.038) and 0.005 (95% CI -0.003, 0.013; all p > 0.05) for high 10-year CVD risk, which indicated no additional CVD events and high 10-years CVD risk were identified when replacing NAFLD with MAFLD in RA patients.ConclusionBoth MAFLD and NAFLD are associated with an increased CVD risk which implies the importance of early detection and management of MAFLD or NAFLD in RA patients. However, new nomenclature of MAFLD identify no additional CVD risk in RA patients.Financial support:National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 81971527, 82171780 and 82101892), Science and Technology Program of Guangzhou (No. 202102010188 and 201904010088), and Guangdong Basic and Applied Basic Research Foundation (No. 2019A1515011928 and 2020A1515110061).Figure 1.The prevalence of MAFLD and NAFLD in RA patients with different stratification.The prevalence in different genders (A) and ages groups (B); The prevalence in different disease activity groups (C) and disease duration (D); remission (CDAI ≤ 2.8); active (CDAI > 2.8).Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
There still remain some problemsin digestive tract reconstruction after robotic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer at present, such as great surgical difficulties and high technical requirements. Based on the surgical experience of the Gastric Surgery Department of Union Hospital, Fujian Medical University and the literatures at home and abroad, relevant issues are discussed in terms of robotic radical distal gastrectomy (Billroth I, Billroth II, and Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy), proximal gastrectomy (double-channel and double-muscle flap anastomosis), and total gastrectomy (Roux-en-Y anastomosis, functional end-to-end anastomosis, FEEA, π-anastomosis, Overlap anastomosis, and modified Overlap anastomosis with delayed amputation of jejunum, i.e. later-cut Overlap). This article mainly includes (1) The principles of digestive tract reconstruction after robotic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer. (2) Digestive tract reconstruction after robotic radical distal gastrectomy: Aiming at the weakness of traditional triangular anastomosis, we introduce the improvement of the technical difficulty, namely "modified triangular anastomosis", and point out that because Billroth II anastomosis is a common anastomosis method in China at present, manual suture under robot is more convenient and safe, and can effectively avoid anastomotic stenosis. (3) Digestive tract reconstruction after robotic proximal gastrectomy: It mainly includes double channel anastomosis and double muscle flap anastomosis, but these reconstruction methods are relatively complicated, and robotic surgery has not been widely carried out at present. (4) Digestive tract reconstruction after robotic total gastrectomy: The most classic one is Roux-en-Y anastomosis, mainly using circular stapler for end-to-side esophagojejunal anastomosis and linear stapler for side-to-side esophagojejunal anastomosis, for which we discuss the solutions to the existing technical difficulties. With the continuous innovation of robotic surgical system and anastomosis instruments, and with the gradual improvement of anastomosis technology, it is believed that digestive tract reconstruction after robotic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer will have a good application prospect in gastric cancer surgery.

Abstract
BackgroundRecently, the autoantibody recognizing melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (anti-MDA5) is of the greatest concern as a specific autoantibody of dermatomyositis (DM), since it delineates a unique clinical phenotype of DM with a high risk of life-threatening lung complications. Considering routine clinical characteristics at baseline are still desired candidates for screening potential mortality predictors, in order to as early as possible stratify the mortality risk in anti-MDA5 positive DM patients before making therapeutic strategies.ObjectivesTo investigate the baseline independent risk factors for predicting 6-month mortality of anti-MDA5-positive DM patients and develop a matrix prediction model formed by these risk factors.MethodsThis was a real-world prospective observational study. The hospitalized patients with DM were included if they fulfilled the criteria including: aged over 18 years old; diagnosed as having DM according to the criteria proposed by Bohan and Peter or the modified Sontheimer definitions; and positive anti-MDA5 which was determined by both line immunoassay testing and enzyme-linked immunosorbent testing. The primary outcome was all-cause 6-month mortality after enrolment. A matrix prediction model was built with the mortality risk probability.ResultsThere were 82 DM patients enrolled (mean age of onset 50±11 years and 63% female), with 40 (49%) showing positive anti-MDA5. Gottron sign/papules (OR: 5.135, 95%CI: 1.489~17.708), arthritis (OR: 5.184, 95%CI: 1.455~18.467), interstitial lung disease (ILD, OR: 7.034, 95%CI: 1.157~42.785), and higher level of C4 (OR: 1.010, 95%CI: 1.002~1.017) were independent associators with positive anti-MDA5 in DM patients. Anti-MDA5-positive DM patients had significant higher 6-month all-cause mortality than those with anti-MDA5-negative (30% vs. 0%). Among anti-MDA5-positive DM patients, compared to the survivors, non-survivors had significantly advanced age of onset (59±6 years vs. 46±9 years), higher rates of fever (75% vs. 18%), positive carcinoma embryonic antigen (CEA, 75% vs. 14%), higher level of ferritin (median 2858 ug/L vs. 619 ug/L, all p<0.05). Multivariate COX regression showed ferritin≥1250 μg/L (HR: 10.4, 95%CI: 1.8~59.9), fever (HR: 11.2, 95%CI: 2.5~49.9), and positive CEA (HR: 5.2, 95%CI: 1.0~25.7) were independent risk factors of 6-month mortality.According to the matrix prediction model, anti-MDA5-positive DM patients could be stratified into three subgroups based on various probabilities of predicted mortality: (i) High-risk: eight patients with two of the above three features (including fever, serum ferritin≥1250 μg/L, and positive CEA) had high predicted mortality probability with 64%~85% (three red grids in Figure 1A), and the actual mortality was 75% (n=6) with 60%, 100%, and 100% respectively in three red grids (Figure 1B). Five patients with all of three features had extremely high predicted mortality probability with 97% (95%CI: 70%~100%, the dark red grid of Figure 1A), and the actual mortality was 100% in Figure 1B; (ii) Moderate-risk: nine patients with one of the above three features had moderate predicted mortality probability with 11%~29% (three yellow grids in Figure 1A), and the actual mortality was 11% (n=1) with 0%, 0%, and 17% respectively in three yellow grids (Figure 1B); (iii) Low-risk: eighteen patients with none of the above three features had low predicted mortality probability with 2% (95%CI: 0.2%~20%, the green grid in Figure 1A), and the actual mortality was 0% in the green grid (Figure 1B).ConclusionBaseline characteristics of fever, positive CEA, and ferritin≥1250 μg/L are risk factors for 6-month all-cause mortality in anti-MDA5-positive DM patients. A novel matrix prediction model composed of these three clinical indicators is firstly proposed to provide a chance for exploration of individual treatment strategies in anti-MDA5-positive DM subgroups with various probabilities of mortality risk.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
Ecological qualities and resources in coasts are threatened by various human activities, such as pollution and fishery. Impact evaluation of environmental stressors over a wide coastal stretch has been limited due to lack of efficient and standardizable biodiversity monitoring and assessment tools. Integrating environmental DNA (eDNA) and ecological traits, a holistic approach was developed to assess the impact of pollution and aquaculture on fish biodiversity in Chinese coastal areas. Taking the Yalujiang Estuary (YLJK) from the Yellow Sea and the Nan'ao Island Area (NAO) from the South China Sea as cases, the performance of the eDNA biomonitoring workflow was validated. First, the eDNA results of 22 sampling sites reached more than 85% of the asymptotes of species or ASVs in each area. A total of 115 fish species in both areas were detected and NAO was 1.8 times richer than YLJK using eDNA and the fish eDNA composition was consistent with the historical data. eDNA recovered distinct variations of fish sequence, taxonomic and functional diversity, and the corresponding trends following the offshore distance between the two areas. Fish sequence diversity was decreased primarily by estuarine pollution factors (chemical oxygen demand and zinc) in the YLJK. Compared with no breeding areas, lower fish sequence diversity was in breeding areas in the NAO. By integrating ecological traits, the eDNA approach offers promising opportunities for future fish biodiversity monitoring and assessment in national and global coastal environments.

Abstract
Background Dysregulated non-coding RNAs exhibit critical functions in various cancers. Nonetheless, the levels and corresponding functions of cirCSNX14 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) yet remain to be elucidated. Methods Initially, the aberrant low levels of lncRNA-LET within ESCC tissues are validated via qRT-PCR observations. Moreover, the effects of lncRNA-LET upregulation on cell proliferation in vitro are determined. In addition, a series of assays determining the mechanistic views related to metabolism is conducted. Furthermore, the effects of lncRNA-LET in affecting tumor growth are investigated in vivo in a mouse model. Moreover, the interactions between lncRNA-LET and its networks are predicted and determined by RNA immunoprecipitation-assisted qRT-PCR as well as luciferase reporter assays. Results The downregulation of lncRNA-LET is correlated to the poor prognosis of ESCC patients. Moreover, the upregulated expression of lncRNA-LET could have reduced the cell viability. In vivo tumor inhibition efficacy assays showed that an increase of lncRNA-LET presented excellent inhibitory effects on cancer proliferation as reflected by tumor weight and volume in mice. Finally, the mechanistic views regarding the effects of miR-106b-5p or miR-93-5p and SOCS4 on ESCC are related to the feedback of lncRNA-LET. Conclusion Collectively, this study suggested that lncRNA-LET miR-93-5p or the miR-106b-5p-SOCS4 axis may provide great potential in establishing ESCC therapy.

Abstract
Objective: To identify rare variants in exon and exon-intron boundary of containing NLR family CARD domain protein 4 (NLRC4) in type 1 diabetes (T1DM) patients, and to explore their effects on gene function. Methods: A total of 508 T1DM patients and 527 healthy controls in the Department of Metabolic Endocrinology, Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from August 2017 to September 2020 were selected. The case group included 264 males and 244 females, and the age [M (Q1, Q3)] was [27 (11, 43)] years. The control group included 290 males and 237 females, and their age[M(Q1,Q3)]was [47 (36, 60)] years old. Identification of rare variants in exons of NLRC4 gene in T1DM patients and healthy controls was performed and verified by next-generation sequencing and sanger sequencing. The NLRC4 gene wild-type and mutant plasmids were constructed and transfected into 293T cells. Western blot (WB) was used to detect the expression of NLRC4 protein and cleavage products of pro-cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase(procaspase-1). Cycloheximide (CHX) was added to 293T cells transfected with wild-type or mutant NLRC4 plasmid to detect the degradation of NLRC4 protein. The localization of NLRC4 protein was detected by immunofluorescence, and the concentration of IL-1β in the cell supernatant was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results: The sequencing results showed that 4 patients and 2 healthy controls had a heterozygous variant c.208C>T in exon 3 of the NLRC4 gene. Two patient had a heterozygous variant c.1564T>C in exon 4, and 1 patients had c.1219G>C in exon 4. These three variants might be pathogenic variants in T1DM. In 293T cells transfected with NLRC4 wild-type and c.208C>T、c.1564T>Cc.1219G>C mutant plasmids, the expression level, degradation rate, localization of NLRC4 protein and the content of cleavage products of procaspase-1 did not change significantly. However, the concentration of IL-1β secreted by 293T cells transfected with c.1219G>C and c.208C>T plasmid [M(Q1, Q3)] was 15.25 (12.98, 17.52) and 15.44 (13.81, 17.07) ng/L, respectively, which was lower than 18.70 (16.59, 20.81) ng/L of 293T cells transfected wild-type plasmid (P=0.020, 0.010). Conclusions: NLRC4 gene rare variants c.208C>T, c.1564T>C and c.1219G>C may not change the protein expression, degradation and localization, but c.208C>T and c.1219G>C may inhibit the secretion of IL-1β. This result suggests that NLRC4 rare variants may have an impact on gene function.

Abstract
Objective: To establish a neural network model for predicting lymph node metastasis in patients with stage II-III gastric cancer. Methods: Case inclusion criteria: (1) gastric adenocarcinoma diagnosed by pathology as stage II-III (the 8th edition of AJCC staging); (2) no distant metastasis of liver, lung and abdominal cavity in preoperative chest film, abdominal ultrasound and upper abdominal CT; (3) undergoing R0 resection. Case exclusion criteria: (1) receiving preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy or radiotherapy; (2) incomplete clinical data; (3) gastric stump cancer.Clinicopathological data of 1231 patients with stage II-III gastric cancer who underwent radical surgery at the Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from January 2010 to August 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 1035 patients with lymph node metastasis were confirmed after operation, and 196 patients had no lymph node metastasis. According to the postoperative pathologic staging. 416 patients (33.8%) were stage Ⅱ and 815 patients (66.2%) were stage III. Patients were randomly divided into training group (861/1231, 69.9%) and validation group (370/1231, 30.1%) to establish an artificial neural network model (N+-ANN) for the prediction of lymph node metastasis. Firstly, the Logistic univariate analysis method was used to retrospectively analyze the case samples of the training group, screen the variables affecting lymph node metastasis, determine the variable items of the input point of the artificial neural network, and then the multi-layer perceptron (MLP) to train N+-ANN. The input layer of N+-ANN was composed of the variables screened by Logistic univariate analysis. Artificial intelligence analyzed the status of lymph node metastasis according to the input data and compared it with the real value. The accuracy of the model was evaluated by drawing the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and obtaining the area under the curve (AUC). The ability of N+-ANN was evaluated by sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive values, negative predictive values, and AUC values. Results: There were no significant differences in baseline data between the training group and validation group (all P>0.05). Univariate analysis of the training group showed that preoperative platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), preoperative systemic immune inflammation index (SII), tumor size, clinical N (cN) stage were closely related to postoperative lymph node metastasis. The N+-ANN was constructed based on the above variables as the input layer variables. In the training group, the accuracy of N+-ANN for predicting postoperative lymph node metastasis was 88.4% (761/861), the sensitivity was 98.9% (717/725), the specificity was 32.4% (44/136), the positive predictive value was 88.6% (717/809), the negative predictive value was 84.6% (44/52), and the AUC value was 0.748 (95%CI: 0.717-0.776). In the validation group, N+-ANN had a prediction accuracy of 88.4% (327/370) with a sensitivity of 99.7% (309/310), specificity of 30.0% (18/60), positive predictive value of 88.0% (309/351), negative predictive value of 94.7% (18/19), and an AUC of 0.717 (95%CI:0.668-0.763). According to the individualized lymph node metastasis probability output by N+-ANN, the cut-off values of 0-50%, >50%-75%, >75%-90% and >90%-100% were applied and patients were divided into N0 group, N1 group, N2 group and N3 group. The overall prediction accuracy of N+-ANN for pN staging in the training group and the validation group was 53.7% and 54.1% respectively, while the overall prediction accuracy of cN staging for pN staging in the training group and the validation group was 30.1% and 33.2% respectively, indicating that N+-ANN had a better prediction than cN stage. Conclusions: The N+-ANN constructed in this study can accurately predict postoperative lymph node metastasis in patients with stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ gastric cancer. The N+-ANN based on individualized lymph node metastasis probability has better accurate prediction for pN staging as compared to cN staging.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Solitary fibrous tumour (SFT) of the sacrum is a very rare disease. So far, there have been few reports on this disease. Here, we reported 2 such cases and reviewed the other 7 reports in the literature. CASE SERIES Case 1, a 48-year-old man presented with lumbosacral pain for 2 months and numbness in the left plantar region for more than 1 month. The report of CT scan indicated that the sacrum was destroyed and the soft tissue mass projected into the pelvis. Histopathology showed that the cells were fusiform or short fusiform, arranged in strips, sheets, and wavy patterns. Case 2, a 40-year-old woman presented with hip joint pain and lower extremity dyskinesia for more than 2 months. The result of the MRI examination demonstrated a mass on the right sacral foramen and anterior sacrum. The characteristics of histopathology are ovoid or spindle-shaped cells with focal nuclear pleomorphism and prominently branched, hemangiopericytoma-like vascular patterns. In addition, immunohistochemical showed that CD34, Bcl-2, CD99, STAT6 and vimentin were positive, while Desmin, MSA, EMA, S100 were negative in both cases. CONCLUSION Previous literatures have revealed that SFTs of the sacrum are rare neoplasms. Case 1 and a part of these lesions previously reported seem to be malignant and should be treated with surgery. Radiation or chemotherapy was adopted if necessary. Since SFT of the sacrum is prone to recur and metastasis, long-term follow-up should be considered. To a certain extent, new risk stratification models can predict prognosis more accurately.

Abstract
The first measurement of lepton-jet momentum imbalance and azimuthal correlation in lepton-proton scattering at high momentum transfer is presented. These data, taken with the H1 detector at HERA, are corrected for detector effects using an unbinned machine learning algorithm (multifold), which considers eight observables simultaneously in this first application. The unfolded cross sections are compared with calculations performed within the context of collinear or transverse-momentum-dependent factorization in quantum chromodynamics as well as Monte Carlo event generators.
