Abstract
T-cell dysfunction has been shown to play an important role in the pathogenesis of Sjögren's syndrome (SS). In recent studies, the increased expression of BMP6 has been reported to be related to SS. However, the roles that BMP6 plays in immune homeostasis in the development of SS as well as the downstream signals activated by BMP6 remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the effects and molecular mechanisms of BMP6 on naive CD4+ T cells, showing that BMP6 could upregulate interferon (IFN)-γ secretion from CD4+ T cells through a ceramide/nuclear factor-κB pathway, with no effect on T-cell activation or proliferation. Moreover, an in vivo study showed that anticeramide treatment (myriocin) for an SS animal model (NOD/LtJ mice) could significantly decrease the IFN-γ expression and Th1 frequency in the salivary glands and suppress the inflammation infiltration in salivary glands and maintain the salivary flow rates, both of which reflect SS-like symptoms. This study identifies a promising target that could effectively attenuate the abnormal state of CD4+ T cells and reverse the progression of SS.

Association between Dried Fruit Intake and DNA Methylation: A Multivariable Mendelian Randomization Analysis. J Nutr Health Aging 2023; 27:1132-1139.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Observational studies have reported associations between dried fruit intake and DNA methylation(DNAm). However, inherent flaws in observational study designs make them susceptible to confounding and reverse causality bias. Consequently, it is unclear whether a causal association exists. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the causal associations between dried fruit intake and DNAm. METHODS We performed two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) using the IEU Open GWAS database aggregated data. Forty-three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with dried fruit intake as instrumental variables (IVs) were selected as exposure. DNAm outcomes include Gran (estimated granulocyte proportions); AgeAccelGrim(GrimAge acceleration); Hannum (Hannum age acceleration); IEAA(Intrinsic epigenetic age acceleration), AgeAccelPheno( PhenoAge acceleration), and DNAmPAIadjAge (DNAm-estimated plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 levels). We used the MR pleiotropy residual sum and outlier test (MRPRESSO) and Radial-MR test to identify any level of multi-effect outliers and assessed the causal effect estimates(after removing outliers). The primary causal effects were estimated using inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method and undertook sensitivity analyses using MR methods robust to horizontal pleiotropy.The direct effects of dried fruit intake on DNAm were estimated using multivariable mendelian randomization (MVMR). RESULTS Leveraging two-sample MR analysis, we observed statistically significant associations between dried fruit intake with a lower AgeAccelGrim(β=-1.365, 95% confidence intervals [CI] -2.266 to -0.464, PIVW=2.985×10-3) and AgeAccelPheno (β= -1.933, 95% CI -3.068 to -0.798, PIVW=8.371×10-4). By contrast, the effects level on Gran (β=0.008, PIVW=0.430), Hannum(β=-0.430, PIVW=0.357), IEAA(β=-0.184, PIVW=0.700), and DNAmPAIadjAge (β=-1.861, PIVW=0.093) were not statistically significant. MVMR results adjusting for the potential effects of confounders showed that the causal relationship between dried fruit intake and AgeAccelGrim(β= -1.315, 95% CI -2.373 to -0.258, PIVW=1.480×10-2) and AgeAccelPheno(β= -1.595, 95% CI -2.987 to -0.202, PIVW=2.483×10-2) persisted. No significant horizontal polymorphism was found in the sensitivity analysis. CONCLUSION Our MR study suggested that increased dried fruit intake is associated with slower AgeAccelGrim and AgeAccelPheno. It can providing a promising avenue for exploring the beneficial effects of dried fruit intake on lifespan extension.

Abstract
Cognitive intervention is a specific form of non-pharmacological intervention used to combat cognitive dysfunction. In this chapter, behavioral and neuroimaging studies about cognitive interventions are introduced. Regarding intervention studies, the form of intervention and the effects of the interventions have been systematically sorted out. In addition, we compared the effects of different intervention approaches, which help people with different cognitive states to choose appropriate intervention programs. With the development of imaging technology, many studies have discussed the neural mechanism of cognitive intervention training and the effects of cognitive intervention from the perspective of neuroplasticity. Behavioral studies and neural mechanism studies are used to improve the understanding of cognitive interventions for the treatment of cognitive impairment.

Abstract
On-site quantitative analysis of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) is of significant importance for addressing increasing concerns about public health and environmental quality. Here, a novel metal-organic framework (MOF) of Co-hemin is synthesized and first used for on-site colorimetric monitoring of 2,4-D. 2,4-D as an inhibitor of alkaline phosphatase could specifically suppress the production of ascorbic acid, which restrained in situ etching of Co-hemin and further triggered the colorimetric response. In the colorimetric assay, Co-hemin displayed good oxidase-like activity without addition of H2O2, which could avoid the shortcomings of H2O2 such as toxicity and instability. The Co-hemin biosensor exhibited a relatively low detection limit of 33 ng mL-1 for 2,4-D by the UV method. Moreover, a smartphone based RGB analysis system for the sensitive detection of 2,4-D was developed, and exhibited a good linear relationship between the RGB model parameter and the concentration of 2,4-D. The operability and accuracy of the Co-hemin biosensor were confirmed by the quantitative determination of 2,4-D in real samples, such as serum and tap water. Also, the Co-hemin based colorimetric biosensor showed good selectivity and specificity. Moreover, the developed assays displayed good application in constructing complex logic gates. This work not only provided a portable and visual platform for on-site monitoring of 2,4-D, but also expanded application prospects in the field of complex biological analysis.

Abstract
Objective: To determine the electrophysiological effects and related mechanisms of late sodium current inhibitors on hearts with short QT intervals. Methods: The electrophysiological study was performed on isolated Langendorff perfused rabbit hearts. A total of 80 New Zealand White rabbits were used and 34 hearts without drug treatment were defined as control group A, these hearts were then treated with IKATP opener pinacidil, defined as pinacidil group A. Then, 27 hearts from pinacidil group A were selected to receive combined perfusion with sodium channel inhibitors or quinidine, a traditional drug used to treat short QT syndrome, including ranolazine combined group (n=9), mexiletine combined group (n=9), and quinidine combined group (n=9). Nineteen out of the remaining 46 New Zealand rabbits were selected as control group B (no drug treatments, n=19), and then treated with pinacidil, defined as pinacidil group B (n=19). The remaining 27 rabbits were treated with sodium inhibitors or quinidine alone, including ranolazine alone group (n=9), mexiletine alone group (n=9), and quinidine alone group (n=9). Electrocardiogram (ECG) physiological parameters of control group A and pinacidil group A were collected. In control group B and pinacidil group B, programmed electrical stimulation was used to induce ventricular arrhythmias and ECG was collected. ECG physiological parameters and ventricular arrhythmia status of various groups were analyzed. The concentrations of pinacidil, ranolazine, mexiletine and quinidine used in this study were 30, 10, 30 and 1 μmol/L, respectively. Results: Compared with control group A, the QT interval, 90% of the repolarization in epicardial and endocardial monophasic action potential duration (MAPD90-Epi, MAPD90-Endo) was shortened, the transmural dispersion of repolarization (TDR) was increased, and the effective refractor period (ERP) and post-repolarization refractoriness (PRR) were reduced in pinacidil group A (all P<0.05). Compared with the pinacidil group A, MAPD90-Epi, MAPD90-Endo, QT interval changes were reversed in quinidine combined group and mexiletine combined group (all P<0.05), but not in ranolazine combined group. All these three drugs reversed the pinacidil-induced increases of TDR and the decreases of ERP and PRR. The induced ventricular arrhythmia rate was 0 in control group B, and increased to 10/19 (χ2=13.6, P<0.05) in pinacidil group B during programmed electrical stimulation. Compared with the pinacidil group B, incidences of ventricular arrhythmia decreased to 11% (1/9), 11% (1/9) and 0 (0/9) (χ2=4.5, 4.5, 7.4, P<0.05) respectively in ranolazine group, mexiletine group and quinidine group. Conclusions: Inhibition of late sodium current does not increase but even decreases the risk of malignant arrhythmia in hearts with a shortened QT interval. The antiarrhythmic mechanism might be associated with the reversal of the increase of TDR and the decrease of refractoriness (including both ERP and PRR) of hearts with shortened QT interval.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Whether surgical left atrial appendage closure (sLAAC) during coronary artery bypass (CABG)surgery improves post-operative outcome including stroke and atrial fibrillation (AF) occurrence is largely unknown.
Objective
To analyze the impact of concomitant sLAAC during CABG in terms of outcomes and readmissions over the following year.
Methods
We analyzed the Nationwide Readmissions Database (2016–2019) using ICD-10 codes to identify hospitalizations for CABG. Patients were subcategorized based on whether sLAAC was performed or not. Among patients who survived their index admission, we employed propensity matching (1:3) to adjust for age, sex, comorbidities, CHA2DS2-VASc scores, previous AF history, heart failure and hospital characteristics. Primary outcomes included unplanned AF and stroke-related readmissions at 1 year.
Results
A total of 58,311 patients with CABG and sLAAC were identified with 175,940 propensity matched controls. Patients undergoing sLAAC were older with higher CHA2DS2-VASc scores and comorbidity burdens. Confounders were well balanced following propensity matching. Over a mean follow-up of 152 days, sLAAC was associated with higher risk of readmission due to AF at one year (HR 1.71 [1.49–1.96] p<0.001). This association is independent of previous AF history. Lower rates of stroke-related readmission was associated with perfomance of sLAAC (HR 0.80 (0.65–0.97) p=0.026), however the association was not observed when accounting for AF history.
Conclusion
CABG with concomitant sLAAC is maybe associated with lower stroke risk at the cost of higher risk of AF readmissions.

Abstract
Vesicle-based medicines hold great promise for therapy development but essential knowledge on the bio-distribution and longevity of vesicles after administration is lacking. We generated vesicles from the membranes of human mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) and we demonstrated earlier that these so-called membrane particles (MP) mediate immunomodulatory and regenerative responses in target cells. In the present study we examined the bio-distribution and longevity of MP after intravenous administration in mice. While most vesicle tracking methods are based on imaging techniques, which require labeling of vesicles and can only detect dense accumulations of vesicles, we used proteomics analysis to detect the presence of MP-derived proteins in multiple organs and tissues. MP proteins were mainly present in plasma and leukocytes at 1 h after injection, indicating that MP - in contrast to whole MSC - do not accumulate in the lungs upon first passage but remain in circulation. After 24 h, MP proteins were still present in plasma but were most abundant in the liver. RNA sequencing of livers demonstrated that MP impact liver function and in particular induce metabolic pathways. These data provide a clear view of the bio-distribution and longevity of MP, which is likely extrapolatable to other types of vesicles, and demonstrate that MP circulate for up to 24 h and may be a tool for targeting the liver.

JS09.5.A Is Radiation Dose to Sleep-relevant Brain Structures Associated with Lower Sleep Quality in Adults with Primary Brain Tumors? Neuro Oncol 2022.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Sleep plays a central role in optimal brain health and daily functioning, and poor sleep is associated with impaired cognitive functioning and reduced quality of life. Despite improved precision of modern radiotherapy (RT) for brain tumors, radiation to healthy tissue, including brain structures relevant for sleep/wake regulation, is often inevitable. In the present study, we investigate whether radiation dose to sleep/wake-relevant brain structures is associated with poorer patient-reported sleep quality in primary brain tumor patients.
Material and Methods
Patients who had received RT for non-glioblastoma primary brain tumors between 2006 and 2016 were included. They completed the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and mean radiation doses to sleep/wake-relevant structures (i.e., brainstem, thalamus, hypothalamus, and the pituitary and pineal glands) were calculated based on planning CTs and contrast-enhanced MR-images. Mean radiation dose (Dmean) to brain structures were compared between patients with and without impaired sleep outcomes using bootstrapped independent t-tests. Differences with effect sizes (ES, Cohen’s d) exceeding ± 0.3 are reported.
Results
A total of 78 patients (glioma, grade 1-3 = 28; meningioma = 22, pituitary = 16, other = 12) were included. Median time since RT was 4.6 years (range = 8.4 years). Mean global PSQI score was 5.13 (SD = 3.1). No differences were observed between tumor types, F (3,74) = 0.37, η 2= .02. Clinical sleep disturbance (PSQI > 5) was reported by 37.2% (n=29). Compared with patients without sleep disturbance, those with sleep disturbance had received a higher radiation dose to the pituitary gland, Dmean = 26.11 Gy, SE = 2.59, versus 34.57 Gy, SE = 3.43, ES(d) = - 0.46, 95% CI [-0.93, 0.003]. Furthermore, compared with patients reporting normal sleep latency (SL), those with poor SL had received a higher radiation dose to the pituitary gland, Dmean = 24.55 Gy, SE = 3.71, versus 32.60 Gy, SE = 2.48, ES(d) = - 0.44, 95% CI [-0.90, 0.03], and the brain stem, Dmean = 15.32 Gy, SE = 2.71, versus 20.20 Gy, SE = 2.01, ES(d) = -3.44, 95% CI [-0.80, 0.12]. Finally, compared with patients with a high sleep efficiency (>85%), those with a low sleep efficiency had received a higher radiation dose to the thalamus, Dmean = 18.11 Gy, SE = 2.36, versus 24.55 Gy, SE = 4.43, ES(d) = -0.35, 95% CI [-0.83, 0.15], and the pineal gland, Dmean = 16.20 Gy, SE = 2.48, versus 23.10 Gy, SE = 4.25, ES(d) = -0.36, 95% CI [-0.85, 0.13].
Conclusion
The prevalence of clinical sleep disturbances in patients with primary brain tumors was high (37%). Our results indicated that higher radiation doses to the pituitary gland, brain stem, thalamus, and pineal gland may be risk factors for poor sleep quality in patients with a primary brain tumor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) has been widely reported to be safe and feasible, and has a powerful effect on improving metabolism and weight loss in patients with a high body mass index (BMI). A few studies have focused on the comparison of RYGB with medical treatment in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients with a lower BMI. OBJECTIVES To compare the metabolic effects and safety of RYGB versus medical treatment during a 2 years follow-up in T2D patients with a BMI of 25 to 32.5 kg/m2. METHODS This retrospective and multicenter cohort study participants were extracted from the T2D patients with a lower BMI (25-32.5 kg/m2) from three bariatric centers between 2009 and 2018. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to minimize bias, and each patient in the surgical group was matched 1:2 to the patients in the medical group with the closest propensity score. Finally, 71 patients who received RYGB and 142 patients who underwent medical treatment with a 2 years follow-up were enrolled to compare the effects of RYGB and medical treatment. The primary endpoint was achievement of the triple endpoint (the simultaneous achievement of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) < 7.0%, fasting low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) < 100 mg/dL (2.6 mmol/L), and systolic blood pressure (SBP) < 130 mmHg at the year-1 visit). Changes in weight, BMI, medication usage, complications, and adverse events were assessed. RESULTS In total, 213 patients (mean age of 47.4 ± 9.5 years, 70.4% male, mean BMI of 28.6 ± 2.2 kg/m2) were included in this study. At the end of the first year, 17 patients (23.9%) in the surgical group and 10 (7.0%) in the medical group had achieved the composite triple endpoint (OR 4.64; 95% CI 1.82-11.81; p = 0.001). Additionally, 43 patients (60.6%) in the surgical group and 11 patients (19.7%) in the medical group experienced remission of T2D. However, more complications were observed in the surgical group (36 vs. 22, p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Among T2D patients with a BMI between 25.0 and 32.5 kg/m2, RYGB was more effective than medical treatment in resolving metabolic disorders and also resulted in more complications. The risk for complications should be considered in the clinical decision-making process for T2D patients with a low BMI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Liver transplant recipients have a high rate of postoperative infection, and identification of patients at high risk for bacterial and fungal infections will help prevent disease and improve long-term outcomes for them. This study aims to understand the composition, distribution, prognosis of bacterial and fungal infections within 2 months after liver transplantation and to analyze their risk factors. METHODS The data of pathogen composition, distribution, and prognosis of bacterial and fungal infections among liver transplant recipients in the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from May 2020 to October 2021 were collected, and the risk factors for these infections were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 106 episodes of bacterial or fungal infections occurred in 71.4% of liver transplant recipients (75/105). Gram-negative bacteria were the dominant pathogenic bacteria (49/106, 46.2%), followed by Gram-positive bacteria (31/106, 29.2%). The most common Gram-negative bacterium was Acinetobacter baumannii (13/106, 12.3%). The most common Gram-positive bacterium was Enterococcus faecium (20/106, 18.9%). The most common infections were pulmonary (38/105, 36.2%) and multiple site infections (30/105, 28.6%). Six (6/105, 5.7%) patients with infections died within 2 months after liver transplantation. Univariate analysis showed that the model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score ≥25, antibiotic use within half a month before transplantation, infections within 2 months prior to transplantation, intraoperative red blood cell infusion≥8 U, indwelling urinary tract catheter ≥4 days after transplantation, and the dosage of basiliximab use ≥40 mg were associated with infections. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that only infections within 2 months prior to transplantation (OR=5.172, 95% CI 1.905-14.039, P<0.01) was an independent risk factor for bacterial and fungal infections after liver transplantation. Postoperative bacterial and fungal infections were reduced in liver transplant recipients receiving basiliximab ≥40 mg (OR=0.197, 95% CI: 0.051-0.762, P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of bacterial and fungal infections is high in the early stage after liver transplantation, and the mortality after infection is significantly higher than that of non-infected patients. The most common infection is respiratory infection, and the dominant pathogens is Gram-negative bacteria. Patients infected within 2 months prior to liver transplantation are prone to bacterial and fungal infections. Standard use of basiliximab can reduce the incidence of infections after liver transplantation.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the diagnostic efficacy of metagenomicnext-generation sequencing (mNGS) technique for pathogen diagnosis of intracranial infection after neurosurgery. Methods: Patients with suspected intracranial infection after neurosurgery who were treated in Beijing Tiantan Hospital of Capital Medical University from May 2017 to October 2018 were selected. Cerebrospinal fluid samples were collected for mNGS detection and bacterial culture. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of these two methods were calculated, and their differences were compared. Results: A total of 80 cerebrospinal fluid samples from patient with suspected intracranial infection after neurosurgery were included, including 53 males and 27 females, with a mean age of (41±19) years old(age range: 2-80 years).After clinical review, a clinical diagnosis was made by two neurosurgery specialists through comprehensively interpretation of the patient's clinical data, laboratory tests and imaging examinations. Finally, 42 cases of intracranial infection and 38 cases of non-infection were clinically diagnosed. The sensitivity and specificity of mNGS detection were 83.33%(35/42) and 76.32%(29/38), and the positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 79.55%(35/44) and 80.56%(29/36). Meanwhile, the sensitivity and specificity of bacterial culture were 59.52%(28/42) and 68.42%(26/38), the positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 68.00% (28/40) and 60.47%(26/40). The sensitivity of mNGS detection washigher than that of bacterial culture, and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=5.83, P=0.015).Compared with bacterial culture, there was no statistically significant difference in the specificity of mNGS detection(χ2=0.59, P=0.441). Conclusion: mNGS detection technique can improve the detection rate of intracranial infection pathogens after neurosurgery, and may become a promising auxiliary diagnostic tool for pathogen detection.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of rapid immunological indicator-degranulation function (CD107a) and perforin expression in the diagnosis of primary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (pHLH). Methods: The clinical data of 295 HLH patients who underwent genetic screening from April 2015 to June 2020 in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing Jingdu Children's Hospital and Beijing Children's Hospital, Capital Medical University was collected and analyzed. The fitness of CD107a and Perforin expression with genetic screening was compared to evaluate the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive values (PPV) and negative predictive values (NPV) of the two indicators, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated and used to determine the optimal threshold (cut-off values) of CD107a and Perforin expression assays that would identify pHLH patients with a maximum sensitivity and specificity (Youden index). Results: In all 295 patients included, there were 156 males and 139 females, aged from 2 months to 70 years, with a median age of 18 years. In terms of distinguishing the type of pHLH associated with degranulation gene defect from all other genetic screening results, in the CD107a testing, the ROC curve was generated and showed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.920 (P<0.001), and the optimal cut-off value was determined to be 7.15% with a sensitivity of 83.3% and specificity of 89.2% when the corresponding Youden index was maximized. The PPV and NPV were 33.3% and 98.8%, respectively. CD107a>10% had an accuracy of 81.6% in judging patients without degranulation-related gene defect and negative genetic screening results. In addition, in terms of distinguishing the type of familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 2 (FHL2) from all other genetic screening results, the sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV of the Perforin expression testing were 88.2%, 64.2%, 20.3% and 98.1%, respectively, based on the normal laboratory test value (≥ 81%). The ROC curve was established to further optimize the cut-off value. The AUC was 0.933 (P<0.001). The cut-off value corresponding to the maximum Youden index was 62.34%, and the sensitivity remained at 88.2%. While the specificity, PPV and NPV rose to 91.5%, 51.7% and 98.7%, respectively. Conclusions: CD107a and Perforin assays have good significance of early prediction for pHLH involved in impaired cytotoxic function. Selecting appropriate cut-off values can provide basis for accurate clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the level and influencing factors of treatment costs for patients with pneumoconiosis, and to provide a basis for reducing the economic burden of patients with pneumoconiosis and optimizing the rational allocation of medical resources. Methods: In August 2020, the multi-stage stratified sampling method was used to obtain the treatment cost information of pneumoconiosis patients from January to December 2018 in 1123 sample medical institutions. The average cost per time of 2178 outpatients and 7425 inpatients was described, and the differences in the distribution of hospitalization costs for patients with pneumoconiosis were compared by one-way analysis of variance, and a multiple linear regression model was constructed to analyze the influencing factors of hospitalization costs for patients with pneumoconiosis. Results: The average cost of outpatients with pneumoconiosis was 465.88 yuan, and the average cost of inpatients was 12280.63 yuan. There were statistically significant differences in hospitalization expenses among different age, institution level, institution type, length of hospital stay and type of insured (F=10.49, 402.92, 416.35, 2390.48, 1298.14, P<0.001) . Age, length of hospital stay, reimbursement ratio, and institution level were influencing factors of the total hospitalization expenses of patients with pneumoconiosis (t=5.27, 62.20, 22.35, 21.20, P<0.001) . Conclusion: Patients with pneumoconiosis have a heavy burden of treatment costs. Age, length of hospital stay, institution level and reimbursement ratio are the main influencing factors of hospitalization costs. It is recommended to strengthen the prevention and treatment of key populations, standardize the use of medical insurance, and promote the rational allocation of medical resource to reduce the cost burden of pneumoconiosis patients.

Abstract
Following the 15 January 2022 Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai eruption, several trace gases measured by the Aura Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) displayed anomalous stratospheric values. Trajectories and radiance simulations confirm that the H2O, SO2, and HCl enhancements were injected by the eruption. In comparison with those from previous eruptions, the SO2 and HCl mass injections were unexceptional, although they reached higher altitudes. In contrast, the H2O injection was unprecedented in both magnitude (far exceeding any previous values in the 17-year MLS record) and altitude (penetrating into the mesosphere). We estimate the mass of H2O injected into the stratosphere to be 146 ± 5 Tg, or ∼10% of the stratospheric burden. It may take several years for the H2O plume to dissipate. This eruption could impact climate not through surface cooling due to sulfate aerosols, but rather through surface warming due to the radiative forcing from the excess stratospheric H2O.

Quantitative systems pharmacology modeling sheds light into the dose response relationship of a trispecific T cell engager in multiple myeloma. Sci Rep 2022; 12:10976.

Abstract
In relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), there are few treatment options once patients progress from the established standard of care. Several bispecific T-cell engagers (TCE) are in clinical development for multiple myeloma (MM), designed to promote T-cell activation and tumor killing by binding a T-cell receptor and a myeloma target. In this study we employ both computational and experimental tools to investigate how a novel trispecific TCE improves activation, proliferation, and cytolytic activity of T-cells against MM cells. In addition to binding CD3 on T-cells and CD38 on tumor cells, the trispecific binds CD28, which serves as both co-stimulation for T-cell activation and an additional tumor target. We have established a robust rule-based quantitative systems pharmacology (QSP) model trained against T-cell activation, cytotoxicity, and cytokine data, and used it to gain insight into the complex dose response of this drug. We predict that CD3-CD28-CD38 killing capacity increases rapidly in low dose levels, and with higher doses, killing plateaus rather than following the bell-shaped curve typical of bispecific TCEs. We further predict that dose–response curves are driven by the ability of tumor cells to form synapses with activated T-cells. When competition between cells limits tumor engagement with active T-cells, response to therapy may be diminished. We finally suggest a metric related to drug efficacy in our analysis—“effective” receptor occupancy, or the proportion of receptors engaged in synapses. Overall, this study predicts that the CD28 arm on the trispecific antibody improves efficacy, and identifies metrics to inform potency of novel TCEs.

Abstract
BackgroundUpadacitinib (UPA) was effective in global Phase 3 trials in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients (pts) with inadequate response (IR) to conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (csDMARDs).ObjectivesTo assess the efficacy and safety of UPA in csDMARD-IR pts with RA in Chinese subgroup from a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo (PBO)-controlled study (NCT02955212) 1.MethodsPts were randomized to 12 weeks of blinded treatment with UPA 15 mg once daily (QD) or PBO, in combination with csDMARDs. Primary and secondary endpoints were analyzed in a Chinese subgroup, including American College of Rheumatology criteria (ACR) responses, remission and low disease activity measures. Safety was analyzed for pts who received ≥1 dose of study drug.Results228 Chinese pts (67.5% of overall trial population) were randomized and took at least one dose of study drug. Baseline characteristics were generally balanced between UPA and PBO. 46% and 35.1% used methotrexate (MTX) alone as concomitant csDMARD in UPA and PBO group, respectively. 38.9% in UPA and 43.0% in PBO group used concomitant csDMARDs other than MTX and 15.0% and 21.9% respectively used a combination. At week 12, more Chinese pts receiving UPA achieved the primary endpoint of ACR20 compared with PBO (71.9% vs 31.6%, nominal p<0.001). UPA also showed greater improvements in all secondary endpoints vs PBO at Week 12 (Table 1), including ACR50 and ACR70, mean change in Disease Activity Score in 28 joints using C-reactive protein (DAS28-CRP), Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI), Short-Form 36-item Health Survey-Physical Component Summary (SF-36 PCS), as well as proportion of pts achieving low disease activity based on DAS28-CRP ≤3.2 and Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) ≤10, and clinical remission based on DAS28-CRP <2.6. Onset of response was rapid with more pts receiving UPA achieving ACR20 by Week 1 versus PBO (25.4% vs 5.3%, nominal p<0.001). Through Week 12 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) occurred in 57.9% of pts on UPA and 49.1% on PBO. The rate of pts with serious AEs (SAEs) was numerically higher with UPA than with PBO (6.1% vs 4.4%). TEAEs reported in ≥ 3% of subjects and with a higher rate on UPA vs. PBO were: upper respiratory tract infection, alanine aminotransferase increased, aspartate aminotransferase increased, hypertension, diarrhea, and leukopenia. Overall safety was consistent with the trial population1 and similar with the reported safety profile of the global clinical program2.Table 1.Summary of Efficacy Endpoint Results at Week 12 in Chinese SubgroupEndpoint aUPA 15mg (N=114)PBO (N=114)Primary endpointACR20, %71.9***31.6Secondary endpointsΔ DAS28-CRP-2.42***-0.75Δ HAQ-DI-0.55***-0.11Δ SF-36 PCS7.63 b***2.94 cDAS28-CRP ≤3.2, %46.5***9.6DAS28-CRP <2.6, %28.1***1.8CDAI ≤10, %33.3***7.0ACR50, %39.5***7.0ACR70, %16.7***2.6ACR20 at Week 1, %25.4***5.3***Nominal p<0.001 vs PBOaNon-responder imputation for binary endpoints; ANCOVA with multiple imputation for DAS28(CRP) and HAQ-DI; mixed model repeated measures for other continuous endpoints.

Abstract
BackgroundOrelabrutinib is an oral, highly-selective, irreversible inhibitor of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK). Orelabrutinib has been approved for the treatment of B cell malignancies in China. Two distinct lupus animal models showed significant efficacy of orelabrutinib in reducing disease activity, which supported the clinical development of orelabrutinib in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE).ObjectivesThis phase Ib/IIa, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-finding study aimed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), preliminary efficacy and biomarkers of orelabrutinib in patients with mild to moderate SLE who received standard of care (SoC) therapy.MethodsPatients diagnosed with SLE by the ACR classification criteria for ≥ 6 months, who had a SLEDAI-2K score ≥5 at screening, and were autoantibody-positive, were randomized 1:1:1:1 to receive oral orelabrutinib at 50mg, 80mg, 100mg or placebo once daily for 12 weeks, respectively.ResultsThis study randomized 60 patients with 55 patients who completed 12-week treatment. Age at baseline was 33.7±9.8 years and 96.7% were female. Baseline disease characteristics were generally balanced across treatment groups. Adverse events (AEs) were reported in 80%, 93.3% and 100% of orelabrutinib treated patients at doses of 50mg, 80mg and 100mg QD respectively versus 85.5% in placebo group. AEs were mostly mild or moderate. Treatment-related SAEs were reported in 3 patients treated with orelabrutinib, only 1 of which was grade 3. No deaths were reported. The plasma exposure of orelabrutinib (AUC and Cmax) was proportionally increased with doses. Nearly complete BTK occupancy was achieved at all dose levels, and the occupancy lasted for 24 hours without any decrease compared to that at 4 hour post-dosing. In all evaluable patients, the SLE Response Index (SRI)-4 response rates at week 12 were 50.0%, 61.5% and 64.3% in patients treated with orelabrutinib at 50mg (n=14), 80mg (n=13) and 100mg (n=14) respectively, compared with 35.7% in patients treated with placebo (n=14), which indicated the trend of dose-dependent improvement. Among the subgroup of patients with SLEDAI-2K≥8 at screening, SRI-4 response occurred in 70%, 70% and 66.7% of patients treated with orelabrutinib at 50mg (n=10), 80mg (n=10) and 100mg (n=9), respectively, compared with 30% who received placebo (n=10). Trends of reduced proteinuria, anti-dsDNA and IgG, total B cells and increased complements C4 were also observed following orelabrutinib treatment.ConclusionOrelabrutinib was generally safe and well tolerated in patients with SLE. Preliminary results also suggested encouraging efficacy which supports further development of orelabrutinib in larger and longer trials for SLE.Table 1.Efficacy results at week 12.All Evaluable PatientsPlaceboOrelabrutinibOrelabrutinibOrelabrutinib50 mg80 mg100 mgN=5514141314SRI-4 response, n (%)5 (35.7%)7 (50.0%)8 (61.5%)9 (64.3%)Treatment difference vs. PBO (%)14.3%25.8%28.6%SLEDAI-2K≥8, N=391010109SRI-4 response, n (%)3 (30.0%)7 (70.0%)7 (70.0%)6 (66.7%)Treatment difference vs. PBO (%)40.0%40.0%36.7%Note: All evaluable patients at week 12 efficacy data were included in the efficacy analysis.Figure 1.SRI-4 response rates at week 12.Disclosure of InterestsRu Li: None declared, Xiaoxia Zhu: None declared, Shengyun Liu: None declared, Xiao Zhang: None declared, Changhao Xie: None declared, Zili Fu: None declared, Anbin Huang: None declared, Lingyun Sun: None declared, Dongzhou Liu: None declared, Jinxia Zhao: None declared, Lin Wu: None declared, Zhoushuai Qin Employee of: InnoCare Pharma Limited., Sichen Li Employee of: InnoCare pharma Limited., Yaorong Liu Employee of: InnoCare pharma Limited., Zhanguo Li: None declared

Abstract
BackgroundCT-P13 is an approved biosimilar to EU-approved and US-licensed Infliximab (INX) for the indications of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), adult and paediatric Crohn’s disease, adult and paediatric ulcerative colitis, ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis.ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to demonstrate equivalence of efficacy and compare PK and safety profiles of CT-P13 and China-approved INX.MethodsIn this randomized, double blinded, multicenter, parallel-group, phase III study, patients with active RA who had been responding inadequately to methotrexate for at least 3 months, were randomized to receive either CT-P13 or China-approved INX. Patients were treated with doses of 3 mg/kg at Weeks 0, 2, 6, then every 8 weeks up to Week 54. Prior to dosing at Week 30, patients randomized to China-approved INX underwent a second randomization either to continue China-approved INX or to switch to CT-P13 at Week 30. Results of patients who underwent transition to CT-P13 were included in the China-approved INX group. The primary efficacy endpoint was change in DAS28 (CRP) from baseline to Week 14, which was analyzed using an analysis of covariance. Equivalence was determined if the 90% CI for the estimate of treatment difference was entirely contained within the predefined equivalence margin of -0.6 to 0.6.Results270 patients were randomly assigned to 2 treatment groups in a 1:1 ratio (136 and 134 patients in the CT-P13 and China-approved INX groups, respectively) and 184 patients completed the study. The least square mean change (standard error) of DAS28 (CRP) from baseline to Week 14, -1.566 [0.1419] and -1.547 [0.1491], was similar between the CT-P13 and China-approved INX groups, respectively. The 90% CI for the estimate of treatment difference (-0.29, 0.25) was contained within the predefined equivalence margin, which demonstrated therapeutic equivalence between the groups. The mean actual values for DAS28 (CRP) decreased from baseline to Week 54 and were similar between the groups (Figure 1). Additional efficacy endpoints, including ACR responses (ACR20 at Week 14; 60.6%, 54.8% and at Week 54; 65.1%, 60.6% in the CT-P13 and China-approved INX groups, respectively), EULAR responses, CDAI, and SDAI, were similar between the groups, even after switching at Week 30. During the study, mean serum INX concentrations were similar between the groups. Between Weeks 14 and 22, mean (percent coefficient of variation) AUCτ were 11156333.615 (44.796) ng·h/mL and 11462884.280 (51.057) ng·h/mL, and Cmax,ss were 66577.2 (31.4) ng/mL and 66356.1 (21.0) ng/mL in the CT-P13 and China-approved INX groups, respectively, which were similar between the groups. Most treatment-emergent AEs were grade 1 or 2 in intensity. One malignancy was reported in the CT-P13 group and no deaths were reported. The proportions of patients with anti-drug antibodies were similar between the groups, even after switching at Week 30. The overall safety profile of CT-P13 was comparable to that of China-approved INX and no new safety issues were observed (Table 1).Table 1.Summary of Safety ResultsNumber of patients (%)CT-P13 (N=136)China-approved Infliximab (N=133)Treatment-emergent AEsTotal115 (84.6%)107 (80.5%)Related97 (71.3%)86 (64.7%)Treatment-emergent serious AEsTotal17 (12.5%)12 (9.0%)Related10 (7.4%)6 (4.5%)Infusion related reaction/ hypersensitivity/anaphylactic reactionsTotal(=Related)20 (14.7%)19 (14.3%)InfectionsTotal45 (33.1%)43 (32.3%)Related36 (26.5%)40 (30.1%)Note: Summary is presented for the safety population who received at least 1 dose (full or partial) of study drug.ConclusionThe study demonstrated that efficacy of CT-P13 is equivalent to that of China-approved INX. Also, the PK and safety profiles of CT-P13 were comparable to those of China-approved INX.

Multimodal data fusion of cortical-subcortical morphology and functional network connectivity in psychotic spectrum disorder. Neuroimage Clin 2022; 35:103056.

Abstract
Overlap has been noted disorders which fall on the psychotic spectrum. Univariate studies may miss joint brain features across diagnostic categories. mCCA with jICA is paired with features across the psychotic spectrum to produce joint components. One joint component displayed a significant relationship with cognitive scores. The replicate trends of cortical-subcortical irregularity in psychotic spectrum disorders.
Multiple authors have noted overlapping symptoms and alterations across clinical, anatomical, and functional brain features in schizophrenia (SZ), schizoaffective disorder (SZA), and bipolar disorder (BPI). However, regarding brain features, few studies have approached this line of inquiry using analytical techniques optimally designed to extract the shared features across anatomical and functional information in a simultaneous manner. Univariate studies of anatomical or functional alterations across these disorders can be limited and run the risk of omitting small but potentially crucial overlapping or joint neuroanatomical (e.g., structural images) and functional features (e.g., fMRI-based features) which may serve as informative clinical indicators of across multiple diagnostic categories. To address this limitation, we paired an unsupervised multimodal canonical correlation analysis (mCCA) together with joint independent component analysis (jICA) to identify linked spatial gray matter (GM), resting-state functional network connectivity (FNC), and white matter fractional anisotropy (FA) features across these diagnostic categories. We then calculated associations between the identified linked features and trans-diagnostic behavioral measures (MATRICs Consensus Cognitive Battery, MCCB). Component number 4 of the 13 identified displayed a statistically significant relationship with overall MCCB scores across GM, resting-state FNC, and FA. These linked modalities of component 4 consisted primarily of positive correlations within subcortical structures including the caudate and putamen in the GM maps with overall MCCB, sparse negative correlations within subcortical and cortical connection tracts (e.g., corticospinal tract, superior longitudinal fasciculus) in the FA maps with overall MCCB, and negative relationships with MCCB values and loading parameters with FNC matrices displaying increased FNC in subcortical-cortical regions with auditory, somatomotor, and visual regions.

Abstract
Two-dimensional polymers functionalized with controllable density of carboxyl groups were constructed with the Langmuir-Blodgett method. Mineralization of calcium phosphate shows significantly different characteristics on these films, which clearly indicates that the density of carboxy groups plays a determining role in controlling the nucleation and orientated growth of calcium phosphate.
