Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of lactic acid-induced upregulation of PLEKHA4 expression on biological behaviors of glioma cells and the possible molecular mechanism. METHODS GEO database and GEPIA2 website were used to analyze the relationship between PLEKHA4 expression level and the pathological grade of glioma. A specific PLEKHA4 siRNA was transfected in glioma U251 and T98G cells, and the changes in cell proliferation ability were assessed by real-time cell analysis technology and Edu experiment. The colony-forming ability of the cells was evaluated using plate cloning assay, and cell cycle changes and cell apoptosis were analyzed with flow cytometry. The mRNA expression of PLEKHA4 was detected by PCR in glioma samples and controls and in glioma cells treated with lactic acid and glucose. Xenograft mice in vivo was used to detect tumor formation in nude mice; Western blotting was used to detect the expressions of cyclinD1, CDK2, Bcl2, β-catenin and phosphorylation of the key proteins in the MAPK signaling pathway. RESULTS The results of GEO database and online website analysis showed that PLEKHA4 was highly expressed in glioma tissues and was associated with poor prognosis; PLEKHA4 knockdown obviously inhibited the proliferation and attenuated the clone-forming ability of the glioma cells (P < 0.05). Flow cytometry showed that PLEKHA4 knockdown caused cell cycle arrest in G1 phase and promoted apoptosis of the cells (P < 0.01). PLEKHA4 gene mRNA expression was increased in glioma samples and glioma cells after lactate and glucose treatment (P < 0.01). PLEKHA4 knockdown, tumor formation ability of nude mice decreased; PLEKHA4 knockdown obviously lowered the expression of cyclinD1, CDK2, Bcl2 and other functional proteins, inhibited the phosphorylation of ERK and p38 and reduced the expression of β-catenin protein (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION PLEKHA4 knockdown inhibited the proliferation of glioma cells and promoted apoptosis by inhibiting the activation of the MAPK signaling pathway and expression of β-catenin. Lactic acid produced by glycolysis upregulates the expression of PLEKHA4 in glioma cells.

Abstract
Using (1.0087±0.0044)×10^{10} J/ψ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring, the process Ξ^{0}n→Ξ^{-}p is studied, where the Ξ^{0} baryon is produced in the process J/ψ→Ξ^{0}Ξ[over ¯]^{0} and the neutron is a component of the ^{9}Be, ^{12}C, and ^{197}Au nuclei in the beam pipe. A clear signal is observed with a statistical significance of 7.1σ. The cross section of the reaction Ξ^{0}+^{9}Be→Ξ^{-}+p+^{8}Be is determined to be σ(Ξ^{0}+^{9}Be→Ξ^{-}+p+^{8}Be)=(22.1±5.3_{stat}±4.5_{sys}) mb at the Ξ^{0} momentum of 0.818 GeV/c, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. No significant H-dibaryon signal is observed in the Ξ^{-}p final state. This is the first study of hyperon-nucleon interactions in electron-positron collisions and opens up a new direction for such research.

Abstract
Objective: To retrospectively analyse the efficacy of surgerical comprehensive treatment for hypopharyngeal cancer. Methods: Four hundred and fifty-six cases of hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma treated from Jan 2014 to Dec 2019 were analyzed retrospectively, including 432 males and 24 females, aged 37-82 years old. There were 328 cases of pyriform sinus carcinoma, 88 cases of posterior pharyngeal wall carcinoma, and 40 cases of postcricoid carcinoma. According to American Joint Committe on Cancer(AJCC) 2018 criteria, 420 cases were of stage Ⅲ or Ⅳ; 325 cases were of T3 or T4 stage. Treatment methods included surgery alone in 84 cases, preoperative planned radiotherapy plus surgery in 49 cases, surgery plus adjuvant radiotherapy or concurrent chemoradiotherapy in 314 cases, and inductive chemotherapy plus surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy in 9 cases. The primary tumor resection methods included transoral laser surgery in 5 cases, partial laryngopharyngectomy in 74 cases, of them 48 cases (64.9%) presented with supracricoid hemilaryngopharyngectomy, total laryngectomy with patial pharyngectomy in 90 cases, total laryngopharyngectomy or with cervical esophagectomy in 226 cases, and total laryngopharyngectomy with total esophagectomy in 61 cases. Among 456 cases, 226 cases received reconstruction surgery with free jejunum transplantation, 61 cases with gastric pull-up, and 32 cases with pectoralis myocutaneous flaps. All patients underwent retropharyngeal lymph node dissection, and high-definition gastroscopy was performed during admission and follow-up. SPSS 24.0 software was used to analyze the data. Results: The 3-year and 5-year overall survival rates were respectively 59.8%, and 49.5%. The 3-year and 5-year disease specific survival rates were respectively 69.0% and 58.8%. Total metastasis rate of retropharyngeal lymph nodes was 12.7%. A total of 132 patients (28.9%) suffered from simultaneous and metachronous multiple primary carcinoma of the hypopharynx. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that T3-4 disease, cervical lymph node metastasis, retropharyngeal lymph node metastasis and postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy were independent factors affecting the prognosis of patients (all P<0.05). As of April 30, 2022, a total of 221 patients died during follow-up, of 109 (49.3%) with distant metastases, which were the main cause of death. Conclusions: The efficacy of comprehensive treatment for hypopharyngeal cancer can be improved by accurate preoperative evaluation, improved surgical resection, active retropharyngeal lymph node dissection and full process intervention of the second primary cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The intestinal microbiome has been associated with response to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in humans and causally implicated in ICI responsiveness in animal models. Two recent human trials demonstrated that fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) from ICI responders can rescue ICI responses in refractory melanoma, but FMT has specific limitations to scaled use. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted an early-phase clinical trial of a cultivated, orally delivered 30-species microbial consortium (Microbial Ecosystem Therapeutic 4, MET4) designed for co-administration with ICIs as an alternative to FMT and assessed safety, tolerability and ecological responses in patients with advanced solid tumors. RESULTS The trial achieved its primary safety and tolerability outcomes. There were no statistically significant differences in the primary ecological outcomes; however, differences in MET4 species relative abundance were evident after randomization that varied by patient and species. Increases in the relative abundance of several MET4 taxa, including Enterococcus and Bifidobacterium, taxa previously associated with ICI responsiveness, were observed and MET4 engraftment was associated with decreases in plasma and stool primary bile acids. CONCLUSIONS This trial is the first report of the use of a microbial consortium as an alternative to FMT in advanced cancer patients receiving ICI and the results justify the further development of microbial consortia as a therapeutic co-intervention for ICI treatment in cancer.

Abstract
We report the properties of primary cosmic-ray sulfur (S) in the rigidity range 2.15 GV to 3.0 TV based on 0.38×10^{6} sulfur nuclei collected by the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer experiment (AMS). We observed that above 90 GV the rigidity dependence of the S flux is identical to the rigidity dependence of Ne-Mg-Si fluxes, which is different from the rigidity dependence of the He-C-O-Fe fluxes. We found that, similar to N, Na, and Al cosmic rays, over the entire rigidity range, the traditional primary cosmic rays S, Ne, Mg, and C all have sizeable secondary components, and the S, Ne, and Mg fluxes are well described by the weighted sum of the primary silicon flux and the secondary fluorine flux, and the C flux is well described by the weighted sum of the primary oxygen flux and the secondary boron flux. The primary and secondary contributions of the traditional primary cosmic-ray fluxes of C, Ne, Mg, and S (even Z elements) are distinctly different from the primary and secondary contributions of the N, Na, and Al (odd Z elements) fluxes. The abundance ratio at the source for S/Si is 0.167±0.006, for Ne/Si is 0.833±0.025, for Mg/Si is 0.994±0.029, and for C/O is 0.836±0.025. These values are determined independent of cosmic-ray propagation.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic value of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) based models in the assessment of extra-prostatic extension (EPE) of prostate cancer. Methods: This retrospective study included 168 consecutive men with prostate cancers [aged 48 to 82 (66.6±6.8) years] who underwent radical prostatectomy and preoperative mpMRI examinations at the First Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital from January 2021 to February 2022. According to European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) score, EPE grade and mEPE score, all cases were independently evaluated by two radiologists, with disagreement reviewed by a senior radiologist as the final result. The diagnostic performance of each MRI-based model for pathologic EPE prediction was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), and the differences between the corresponding area under the curve (AUC) were compared using the DeLong test. The weighted Kappa test was used to evaluate the inter-reader agreement of each MRI-based model. Results: A total of 62 (36.9%) prostate cancer patients had pathologic confirmed EPE after radical prostatectomy. The AUC of ESUR score, EPE grade and mEPE score for predicting pathologic EPE were 0.836 (95%CI: 0.771-0.888), 0.834 (95%CI: 0.769-0.887) and 0.785 (95%CI: 0.715-0.844), respectively. The AUC of ESUR score and EPE grade were both superior to that of mEPE score with significant differences (all P<0.05), while there was no significant difference between the ESUR score and EPE grade models (P=0.900). EPE grading and mEPE score had good inter-reader consistency, with weighted Kappa values of 0.65 (95%CI: 0.56-0.74) and 0.74 (95%CI: 0.64-0.84), respectively. The inter-reader consistency of ESUR score was moderate, and the weighted Kappa value was 0.52 (95%CI: 0.40-0.63). Conclusion: All MRI-based models showed good preoperative diagnostic value in predicting EPE, among which the EPE grade resulted in more reliable performance with substantial inter-reader agreement.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the growth-inhibitory and pro-apoptotic effects of piroctone olamine (PO) on glioma cells and explore the underlying mechanism. METHODS Human glioma cell lines U251 and U373 were treated with PO and the changes in cell proliferation were detected using CCK-8 assay and EdU assay. Clone formation assay and flow cytometry were used to examine the changes in clone formation ability and apoptosis of the treated cells. Mitochondrial membrane potential of the cells and morphological changes of the mitochondria were detected using JC-1 staining and a fluorescence probe, respectively. The expressions of mitochondrial fission protein DRP1 and the fusion protein OPA1 were determined with Western blotting. Transcriptome sequencing and differential gene enrichment analysis was performed, and the expression levels of PI3K, AKT and p-AKT in the treated cells were verified using Western blotting. RESULTS CCK-8 assay showed that PO significantly inhibited the proliferation of U251 and U373 cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner (P < 0.001). EdU test showed that the proliferative activity of PO-treated cells was significantly decreased, and the number of cell colonies also decreased significantly (P < 0.01). PO treatment significantly increased apoptotic rates (P < 0.01), decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and caused obvious changes in mitochondrial morphology of the cells. Pathway enrichment analysis showed that the down-regulated genes were significantly enriched in the PI3K/AKT pathway, which was verified by Western blotting showing significantly down-regulated expression levels of PI3K, AKT and p-AKT in PO-treated cells (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION PO interferes with mitochondrial fusion and fission function through the PI3K/AKT pathway, thereby inhibiting the proliferation and increasing apoptosis of glioma cells.

Abstract
Objective: To understand the current status of diagnosis and treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) /small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) among hematologists, oncologists, and lymphoma physicians from hospitals of different levels in China. Methods: This multicenter questionnaire survey was conducted from March 2021 to July 2021 and included 1,000 eligible physicians. A combination of face-to-face interviews and online questionnaire surveys was used. A standardized questionnaire regarding the composition of patients treated for CLL/SLL, disease diagnosis and prognosis evaluation, concomitant diseases, organ function evaluation, treatment selection, and Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor was used. Results: ①The interviewed physicians stated that the proportion of male patients treated for CLL/SLL is higher than that of females, and the age is mainly concentrated in 61-70 years old. ②Most of the interviewed physicians conducted tests, such as bone marrow biopsies and immunohistochemistry, for patient diagnosis, in addition to the blood test. ③Only 13.7% of the interviewed physicians fully grasped the initial treatment indications recommended by the existing guidelines. ④In terms of cognition of high-risk prognostic factors, physicians' knowledge of unmutated immunoglobulin heavy-chain variable and 11q- is far inferior to that of TP53 mutation and complex karyotype, which are two high-risk prognostic factors, and only 17.1% of the interviewed physicians fully mastered CLL International Prognostic Index scoring system. ⑤Among the first-line treatment strategy, BTK inhibitors are used for different types of patients, and physicians have formed a certain understanding that BTK inhibitors should be preferentially used in patients with high-risk factors and elderly patients, but the actual use of BTK inhibitors in different types of patients is not high (31.6%-46.0%). ⑥BTK inhibitors at a reduced dose in actual clinical treatment were used by 69.0% of the physicians, and 66.8% of the physicians had interrupted the BTK inhibitor for >12 days in actual clinical treatment. The use of BTK inhibitors is reduced or interrupted mainly because of adverse reactions, such as atrial fibrillation, severe bone marrow suppression, hemorrhage, and pulmonary infection, as well as patients' payment capacity and effective disease progression control. ⑦Some differences were found in the perceptions and behaviors of hematologists and oncologists regarding the prognostic assessment of CLL/SLL, the choice of treatment options, the clinical use of BTK inhibitors, etc. Conclusion: At present, a gap remains between the diagnosis and treatment of CLL/SLL among Chinese physicians compared with the recommendations in the guidelines regarding the diagnostic criteria, treatment indications, prognosis assessment, accompanying disease assessment, treatment strategy selection, and rational BTK inhibitor use, especially the proportion of dose reduction or BTK inhibitor discontinuation due to high adverse events.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study reviews our cumulative experience with the management of patients presenting with a retained knife following an abdominal stab wound (SW). METHODS A retrospective study was conducted at a major trauma centre in South Africa over a 15-year period from July 2006 to December 2020 including all patients who presented with a retained knife in the abdomen following a SW. RESULTS A total of 42 cases were included: 37 males (93%) with a mean age of 26 years. A total of 18 knives (43%) were in the anterior abdomen and 24 were posterior abdomen. Plain radiography was performed in 88% (37/42) of cases and computed tomography was performed in 81% (34/42); 90% (38/42) underwent extraction in the operating theatre. Laparotomy was performed in 62% (26/42). Of all the laparotomies performed, 77% (20/26) were positive for intra-abdominal organ or visceral injury. Overall morbidity was 31%. There were two mortalities (5%). Laparotomy was less commonly required for the posterior abdomen (33% (8/24) vs 100% (18/18), p<0.001). For retained knives in the anterior abdomen, 72% (13/18) of the laparotomies were positive for intra-abdominal organ or visceral injury. For the posterior abdomen, 7 of the 8 (88%) were positive for intra-abdominal organ or visceral injury. There were no differences in the need for intensive care unit admission, length of hospital stay, morbidities or mortalities. CONCLUSIONS Uncontrolled extraction of a retained knife in the abdomen outside of the operating theatre must be avoided. Retained knives in the anterior abdomen usually require formal laparotomy, but this is generally not required for posterior abdomen.

Abstract
We present the precision measurements of 11 years of daily cosmic electron fluxes in the rigidity interval from 1.00 to 41.9 GV based on 2.0×10^{8} electrons collected with the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) aboard the International Space Station. The electron fluxes exhibit variations on multiple timescales. Recurrent electron flux variations with periods of 27 days, 13.5 days, and 9 days are observed. We find that the electron fluxes show distinctly different time variations from the proton fluxes. Remarkably, a hysteresis between the electron flux and the proton flux is observed with a significance of greater than 6σ at rigidities below 8.5 GV. Furthermore, significant structures in the electron-proton hysteresis are observed corresponding to sharp structures in both fluxes. This continuous daily electron data provide unique input to the understanding of the charge sign dependence of cosmic rays over an 11-year solar cycle.

Abstract
AIM To introduce a novel computer-aided classification (CAC) system and investigate the feasibility of characterising and diagnosing breast masses on ultrasound (US). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 246 breast masses were included. US features and the final assessment categories of the breast masses were analysed by a radiologist and the CAC system according to the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) lexicon. The CAC system evaluated the BI-RADS assessment from the fusion of multi-view and colour Doppler US images without (SmartBreast) or with combining clinical variables (m-CAC system). The diagnostic performance and agreement of US characteristics between the radiologist and the CAC system were compared. RESULTS The agreement between the radiologist and the CAC system was substantial for mass shape (κ = 0.673), orientation (κ = 0.682), margin (κ = 0.622), posterior features (κ = 0.629), calcifications in a mass (κ = 0.709) and vascularity (κ = 0.745), fair for echo pattern (κ = 0.379), and moderate for BI-RADS assessment (κ = 0.575). With BI-RADS 4a as the cut-off value, the specificity (52.5% versus 25%, p<0.0001) and accuracy (73.98% versus 62.6%, p=0.0002) of the m-CAC system were improved without significant loss of sensitivity (94.44% versus 98.41%, p=0.1250) compared with the SmartBreast. The m-CAC system showed similar specificity (52.5% versus 45.83%, p=0.2430) and accuracy (73.98% versus 73.58%, p=1.0000) as the radiologist, but a lower sensitivity (94.44% versus 100%, p=0.0156). CONCLUSION The CAC system showed an acceptable agreement with the radiologist for characterisation of breast lesions. It has the potential to mimic the decision-making behaviour of radiologists for the classification of breast lesions.

Abstract
Apical periodontitis is an inflammatory condition that is considered an immunological reaction of the periapical tissue to invading bacteria and their pathogenic components. Recent research has revealed that NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) is crucial to the pathogenesis of apical periodontitis and serves as a link between innate and adaptive immunity. The balance between regulatory T-cell (Treg) and T helper cell 17 (Th17 cell) determines the direction of the inflammatory response. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate whether NLRP3 exacerbated periapical inflammation by disturbing Treg/Th17 balance and the underlying regulatory mechanisms. In the present study, NLRP3 was raised in apical periodontitis tissues as opposed to healthy pulp tissues. Low NLRP3 expression in dendritic cells (DCs) increased transforming growth factor β secretion while decreasing interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6 production. The Treg ratio and IL-10 secretion rose when CD4+ T cells were cocultured with DCs primed with IL-1β neutralizing antibody (anti-IL-1β) and specific small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting NLRP3 (siRNA NLRP3), but the proportion of Th17 cells and IL-17 release dropped. Furthermore, siRNA NLRP3-mediated suppression of NLRP3 expression aided Treg differentiation and elevated Foxp3 expression as well as IL-10 production in CD4+ T cells. Inhibition of NLRP3 activity by MCC950 boosted the percentage of Tregs while decreasing the ratio of Th17 cells, leading to reduced periapical inflammation and bone resorption. Nigericin administration, however, exacerbated periapical inflammation and bone destruction with an unbalanced Treg/Th17 response. These findings demonstrate that NLRP3 is a pivotal regulator by regulating the release of inflammatory cytokines from DCs or directly suppressing Foxp3 expression to disturb Treg/Th17 balance, thus exacerbating apical periodontitis.

Abstract
Background Several environmental factors are associated with Crohn’s disease (CD) in large case-control studies; however, it is not clear how these factors maybe be influenced by age of exposure and if they are related to alterations in pre-disease biological markers of CD risk. Purpose To investigate the association between environmental factors in different age groups with future risk of CD onset and assess their relation to other pre-disease biomarkers. Method We used an environmental risk assessment questionnaire (ERA) to collect information from healthy first-degree relatives(FDR) of CD enrolled in the CCC-GEM project. ERA was a multi-item questionnaire querying 69 questions under 7 section headings: background, cultural/ethnic, smoking history, medical history, family history, environmental history and pet history. For the environmental and pet sections, current and historical (<1, 2-4, 5-15 years old) data was captured at the time of recruitment. We used Cox proportional hazard models to identify exposures associated with future CD onset. Next, we used regression models to identify the relationship of exposures with biological factors associated with CD risk previously identified by our group i.e.: i) intestinal permeability using urinary fractional excretion of lactulose to mannitol ratio (LMR) with LMR≥0.025 defined as abnormal; ii) subclinical inflammation using fecal calprotectin (FCP) with FCP≥100µg/g; and iii) fecal microbiome composition and diversity using 16S rDNA sequencing. Two-sided p<0.05 (or false discovery rate corrected p<0.05) were considered significant. Result(s) A total of 4289 FDRs were recruited, 47% were male, median recruitment age was 17.0 years[6-35]. After a median follow-up of 5.6-years (IQR=3.42-8.67), 86 FDRs developed CD. Living with a dog between age 5-15 (Hazard Ratio (HR)=0.61; 95% confidence interval (CI)=0.39-0.95), and a large family size (>3) in the first year of life (HR=0.41; 95% CI=0.22-0.89) were protective against CD onset. Conversely, having a bird at time of survey (HR=2.84; CI=1.37-5.90), and having a sibling with CD (HR=2.07; 95% CI=1.18-3.63) were risk factors for CD onset. We found that owning a dog between age of 5-15 (Odd Ratio(OR)=0.77, 95% CI=0.65-0.90) was significantly associated with LMR, nine taxa bacterial and higher chao1 diversity index. Having a bird at time of survey was significantly associated with FCP (OR=2.04, 95% CI=1.33-3.11). There was no association between large family size and having a CD sibling with gut microbiome, FCP or LMR. Conclusion(s) The study identified four environmental factors associated with future development of CD. Among them, exposure to dogs during early life was protective against CD onset and might be explained by its association with normal gut permeability and microbiome. We also identified that having a bird at recruitment increased risk of CD onset which might be mediated by an increase in subclinical inflammation.

Abstract
Background Healthy individuals within families with multiple affected members (multiplex families) with Crohn’s disease (CD) have a notably high risk of developing CD. No large prospective pre-disease cohort has assessed differences in preclinical intestinal inflammation, permeability, fecal microbiome, and genetics in healthy at-risk subjects from multiplex families. Purpose We aimed to assess differences in subclinical gut inflammation, genetic risk, gut barrier function, and fecal microbiota composition between first-degree relatives (FDRs) from families with 2 or more affected members (multiplex) and families with only one affected member (simplex). Also, we aimed to assess the risk of future CD onset in subjects from multiplex versus simplex families. Method We utilized the GEM Project cohort of healthy FDRs of CD patients. Subclinical gut inflammation was assessed using fecal calprotectin (FCP) at recruitment. Gut barrier function was assessed using the lactulose-to-mannitol ratio (LMR). For assessment of the CD-related genetic risk, CD-polygenic risk scores (CD-PRS) were calculated. Microbiome composition was assessed by sequencing fecal 16S ribosomal RNA. Generalized estimating equations logistic regression and LEfSe (PMID: 21702898) were used to assess the associations between multiplex status and different outcomes. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess time-related risk of future onset of CD. Result(s) 4385 subjects were included. Median age was 17 [IQR 12-24] years, 52.9% were female, 69.4% were siblings and 30.6% were offspring. 4052 (92.4%) and 333 (7.6 %) were simplex and multiplex subjects, respectively. After adjusting for age, sex, family size, and relation to proband, multiplex status was significantly associated with higher baseline FCP (p=0.038), but was not associated with either baseline LMR or CD-PRS (p=0.19 and p=0.33, respectively). We found no significant differences in alpha diversity (Shannon index) (p=0.57) between simplex and multiplex subjects. Beta diversity analysis assessed by the Bray-Curtis dissimilarity index did not reveal significant differences (R2=3e-04, p=0.607). The genera Eisenbergiella, Eggerthellaceae uncultured, and Morganella, were significantly more abundant in multiplex subjects, whereas Lachnospira, Sutterella, Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group, and Lachnospiraceae_UCG_004 less abundant. The risk of CD onset was significantly higher in multiplex subjects. In multivariable analysis, multiplex status at recruitment was associated with increased risk of CD onset (adjusted HR 3.41, 95% CI 1.70-6.87, p=0.00055), after adjusting for demographics, FCP, LMR, and CD-PRS. Conclusion(s) Multiplex status compared to simplex is associated with a 3.4-fold increased risk of CD onset, a higher FCP, and fecal bacterial composition. A comprehensive assessment of environmental factors that increase CD risk in multiplex families remains to be elucidated in future studies. Disclosure of Interest None Declared

Abstract
Background Liver transplantation is frequently lifesaving for people living with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). However, patients are waitlisted for liver transplant (LT) according to the MELD-Na score, which may not accurately reflect the burden of living with PSC. Purpose We sought to describe and analyze the clinical trajectory for patients with PSC referred for LT, in a mixed deceased donor/live donor transplant programme. Method This was a retrospective cohort study from November 2012 to December 2019 including all patients with PSC referred for assessment at the University Health Network Liver Transplant Clinic. Patients who required multiorgan transplant or re-transplantation were excluded. Liver symptoms, hepatobiliary malignancy, MELD-Na progression, and death were abstracted from chart review. Competing Risk analysis was used for timing of LT, transplant type, and death. Result(s) Of 172 PSC patients assessed, 144 (84%) were listed, of whom 106/144 (74%) were transplanted. Mean age was 47.6 years and 66% were male. During follow-up through to 2021, 23/144 (16%) were removed from the waitlist due to infection, clinical deterioration, liver-related mortality or new cancer; 3 had clinical improvement. At the time of listing, 118/144 (81.95%) had a potential Living Donor (pLD) of whom 94 were transplanted: 64 live donor and 30 deceased donor. Patients with pLD had 79% lower mortality (p<0.001), and higher rates of transplantation (80% vs 46%). Exception points were granted to 13/172 (7.5%) patients. Conclusion(s) In a high-volume North American liver transplant centre, most patients with PSC assessed for transplant were listed and subsequently transplanted. However, this was a consequence of patients engaging in live donor transplantation. Our findings support the concern from patients with PSC that MELD-Na allocation does not adequately address their needs.

Abstract
Background The incidence of Crohn’s disease (CD) is increasing globally, indicating a significant environmental influence such as diet. A plethora of dietary adherence (DA) patterns exist in the literature: the Mediterranean Diet (MD), Empirical Dietary Inflammatory Pattern (EDIP), Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD), and low Fermentable Oligosaccharide, Disaccharide, Monosaccharide, or Polyol diet (FODMAP) are all potential candidates to maintain a reduced level of inflammation, improving gastrointestinal function. Contrary, the Westernized diet (WD) is generally reported as a diet promoting inflammation in humans. Purpose To determine if DA to literature-derived dietary indices in a cohort of first-degree relatives (FDRs) of CD patients can modulate pre-disease biomarkers. Method We used food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) data from 2,696 healthy FDR subjects of the Crohn’s Colitis Canada- Genes, Environment, Microbial (CCC-GEM) project. We rederived each of the following scores using our FFQ data, utilizing originally described methods for the MD, EDIP, SCD, low FODMAP, and WD to obtain DA. Each diet was correlated pairwise via Kendall’s Tau. We fit multivariable regression models to identify the association of DA (top quintile vs remaining) and: i) intestinal permeability using urinary fractional excretion of lactulose to mannitol ratio (LMR), LMR≥0.03 defined abnormal; ii) subclinical inflammation using fecal calprotectin (FCP) measured with BÜHLMANN fCAL® ELISA, FCP≥250µg/g defined inflammation; and iii) fecal microbiome richness and composition using 16S rRNA sequencing. Two-sided p<0.05 for primary and q<0.05 for secondary analysis defined significance. Result(s) There were positive correlations between the MD, SCD, and low FODMAP, these diets negatively correlated with the WD. The EDIP negatively correlated with the SCD and low FODMAP, did not correlate with the MD, and positively correlated with the WD. No diet was associated with abnormal LMR or FCP. Only the SCD was associated with increased microbial richness (q=0.03). All diets were associated with microbial genera: the MD (n=18 taxa, (2.0-7<q-values< 0.04), EDIP (n=9, [2.8-4-0.05]), SCD (n=13, [3.7-11-0.05]), low FODMAP (n=14, [1.3-7-0.05]), and WD (n=1, [0.03]). Conclusion(s) This study shows that literature-derived dietary indices correlate generally with each other, yet none were not associated with abnormal LMR or FCP. However, we found that diet can impact microbiome richness and composition. Thus, it is tempting to speculate that diet is a possible intervention capable of maintain microbiome homeostasis to reduce future risk of CD. Submitted on behalf of the CCC-GEM consortium.

Abstract
Background Crohn’s disease (CD) is a chronic relapsing inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract. The etiology of CD may arise from complex interactions including host genetics, diet, and the intestinal microbiome. Increased consumption of saturated fats, characteristic of the Western diet, is a known risk factor for CD. Dietary fat (DF) is absorbed by the host through the release of primary bile acids (PBAs) and bio-transformed by the microbiome into secondary bile acids (SBAs). Altogether, bile acids (BAs) can act as signaling molecules involved in host immune regulation and potentially in CD onset. Purpose To investigate the relationship between CD risk, BAs, and DF, and evaluate the predictive performance of CD onset of these factors by developing machine learning models. Method We used samples healthy first-degree relatives (FDRs) recruited as part of the Crohn’s Colitis Canada- Genes, Environment, Microbial (GEM) project. Those who developed CD (n=87) were matched 1:4 by age, sex, follow-up time, and geographic location with control FDRs remaining healthy (n=347). Serum, urine, and stool BA were measured using ultrahigh Performance Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectroscopy. DF types were derived from food frequency questionnaire data. We used conditional logistic regressions to identify associations between CD onset, BAs (n=93), and DFs (n=9). We further explored the relationships of significant CD-related BAs and DF via Generalized Estimation Equations. Finally, we used a tree-based machine-learning algorithm (XGBoost) with 5-fold cross-validation to assess the prediction performance of CD onset using BA from all sources as well as DF. Two-sided p<0.05 was considered significant. Result(s) In total, 10 of 93 BAs, and two of nine DFs were significantly associated with increased odds of CD onset (p<0.05). Additionally, five BAs were significantly associated with DF (p<0.05). Serum-derived BAs had the best predictive performance for CD, with a mean AUC of 0.70 [95% CI: 0.63;0.76], followed by stool derived BAs with a mean AUC= 0.65 [0.55;0.75], and followed by urine derived Bas with a mean AUC= 0.57 [0.48;0.66]. Lastly DF was not a predictive marker of CD onset with a mean AUC= 0.50 [0.41;0.60]. Conclusion(s) This study suggests that BAs are associated with the pathogenesis of CD and the effects may be influenced by DF. Serum-derived BAs may be able to better predict the risk of CD than other stool or urine derived BA, while DF is not directly implicated in CD risk. Submitted on behalf of the CCC-GEM consortium.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This paper reviews our experience with management of renal injuries in children and adolescents with a focus on the outcome of non-operative management (NOM). METHODS Retrospective review of the clinical characteristics, injury grade (I-III, low grade and IV and V high grade), management and outcomes of children ≤ 18 years old with renal trauma presenting to a major trauma centre in South Africa between December 2012 and October 2020. RESULTS Sixty-one children with a renal injury were identified with a median age of 13 (range 0-18) years. Forty-five were boys; blunt and penetrating mechanisms of trauma were sustained by 55 (90%) and six (10%) children, respectively. The median American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) grade of renal injury was 3 (range 1-5): this included eight (13%) with grade I, six (10%) with grade II, 17 (28%) with grade III, 20 (46%) with grade IV and 10 (16%) with grade V injuries. Forty children (66%) were successfully managed non-operatively and 21 required a laparotomy; of these six (28%) required nephrectomy. The overall renal salvage rate was 55/61 (90%). Children who required laparotomy were significantly more likely to have sustained a penetrating mechanism of injury (24% vs 2%) and have greater length of hospital stay (median 9 vs 3 days) compared to children managed non-operatively (p < 0.05). Children who underwent a nephrectomy had a significantly greater length of hospital stay (median 9 vs 4 days, p = 0.03); however, their demographics, outcomes developed complications. Two children (3%) died; one managed non-operatively and one with a laparotomy. CONCLUSION Paediatric renal trauma can be successfully managed non-operatively in over two-thirds of cases in this middle-income country. High grade of renal injury does not absolutely predict need for surgery or nephrectomy and can be managed non-operatively.

Abstract
Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in men and women worldwide, and 85% of these patients have non-small cell lung cancer. In recent years, the clinical use of targeted drug therapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors has dramatically changed the treatment landscape for advanced NSCLC. The mechanism and the value of targeted therapies have been a hot topic of research, as KRAS is one of the earliest discovered and most frequently mutated oncogenes, which is activated by binding to GTP and triggers a series of cascade reactions in cell proliferation and mitosis. The KRAS protein acts as a molecular switch and is activated by binding to GTP, triggering a series of cascade responses in cell proliferation and mitosis. Clinically, patients with KRAS mutated NSCLC have poor response to systemic medical therapy and poor prognosis. Since the first report of KRAS gene in 1982, research on KRAS targeted therapeutics has been slow, and previous studies such as farnesyltransferase inhibitors and downstream protein inhibitors of KRAS signaling pathway have not achieved the expected results, making KRAS long defined as a "non-druggable target". The deeper understanding of the crystal structure of KRAS has led to the discovery of potential therapeutic sites for KRAS and the development of several drugs directly targeting KRAS, especially KRAS G12C inhibitors such as AMG510 (sotorasib) and MRTX849 (adagrasib), which have shown encouraging results in clinical trials. In recent years, studies on the therapeutic efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors for KRAS-mutated NSCLC have made some progress. In this review, we systematically introduce the basic understanding of RAS gene and clinical characteristics of KRAS mutated NSCLC patients, summarize the medical treatments for KRAS mutated NSCLC, including chemotherapy, anti-vascular drug therapy and tumor immunotherapy, and focus on the review and outlook of the research progress of KRAS targeted therapy.

Abstract
The widespread existence of nonylphenol in the environmental rendered from wastewater discharge has become a growing concern for its endocrine disrupting effects on microorganisms. In this study, the performance of nitrifying and denitrifying microbial community in a sequencing batch reactor (SBR) was investigated under different nonylphenol concentrations. The SBR was shown to be less effective in nitrogen removal at higher concentration of nonylphenol. Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Actinobacteria were characterized by 454 pyrosequencing as the dominant bacteria, nitrogen removal functional bacteria in these three phyla were inhibited by nonylphenol, and Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria were more sensitive to nonylphenol. With the accumulation of nonylphenol, the population of the most abundant denitrifying bacteria (Thauera spp.) and nitrifying bacteria (Nitrosomonas spp.) significantly reduced. Microbial diversity increased due to nonylphenol perturbation, which is indicated by the changes in microbial alpha diversity. Principal component analysis showed high similarity between microbial community in low and high concentration of nonylphenol, and the core genera involved in nitrogen removal had a low correlation with other genera shown in co-occurrence network. Moreover, linear discriminant analysis effect size analysis revealed intergroup differences in microorganisms. The mechanism of accumulated NP on the diversity and metabolism of the microbial community was examined. This paper established a theoretical foundation for the treatment of NP-containing wastewater and provided hints for further research about NP impact on biological nitrogen removal.

Abstract
The Majorana Demonstrator searched for neutrinoless double-β decay (0νββ) of ^{76}Ge using modular arrays of high-purity Ge detectors operated in vacuum cryostats in a low-background shield. The arrays operated with up to 40.4 kg of detectors (27.2 kg enriched to ∼88% in ^{76}Ge). From these measurements, the Demonstrator has accumulated 64.5 kg yr of enriched active exposure. With a world-leading energy resolution of 2.52 keV FWHM at the 2039 keV Q_{ββ} (0.12%), we set a half-life limit of 0νββ in ^{76}Ge at T_{1/2}>8.3×10^{25} yr (90% C.L.). This provides a range of upper limits on m_{ββ} of (113-269) meV (90% C.L.), depending on the choice of nuclear matrix elements.

Abstract
The Atmospheric X-ray Imaging Spectrometer (AXIS) described in this work is a compact, wide field-of-view, hard x-ray imager. The AXIS instrument will fly onboard the Atmospheric Effects of Precipitation through Energetic X-rays (AEPEX) 6U CubeSat mission and will measure bremsstrahlung x-ray photons in the 50-240 keV range with cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) detectors using coded aperture optics. AXIS will measure photons generated by energetic particle precipitation for the purpose of determining the spatial scales of precipitation and estimating electron precipitation characteristics. This paper describes the design and testing of the AXIS instrument, including a summary of simulations performed that motivate the shielding, optics, and mechanical design. Testing and characterization is reported that validates the instrument design and shows that the instrument design meets or exceeds the measurement requirements necessary for AEPEX mission success.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the long-term outcomes of patients with unilateral vocal fold paralysis resulting in dysphonia treated with lateral vocal fold autologous fat injection. To analyze the factors that may affect the long-term efficacy of the procedure. Methods: From July 2003 to June 2020, 163 patients (86 males and 77 females), aged 9-73 years (mean (34.50±12.94) years) with unilateral vocal fold paralysis resulting in dysphonia underwent transoral laryngoscopic injection of autologous fat into the lateral vocal folds. Subjective auditory perception assessment (GRBAS scale), objective acoustic assessment, voice handicap index (VHI) evaluation and stroboscopic laryngoscopy were compared before and after the surgery. Patients were followed up for 1 to 18 years, with median follow-up time of 6 years. SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results: Of 163 patients, 17 patients (10.4%) had mild hoarseness (G1) and 146 patients (89.6%) had moderate to severe hoarseness (G2-3). Stroboscopic laryngoscopy revealed an arch-shaped vocal fold on the affected side, fixed in the paramedian position or abduction position, with obvious glottic closure fissure. Postoperatively, voice recovered to normal (G0) in 139 patients (85.3%), mild hoarseness (G1) in 18 patients (11.0%) and moderate hoarseness (G2) in 6 patients (3.7%). Of these, 131 patients (80.4%) showed significant improvement in hoarseness, 29 patients (17.8%) showed mild improvement and 3 patients (1.8%) showed no significant improvement in hoarseness. Objective acoustic parameters of Jitter, Shimmer, NHR and MPT improved significantly, as did VHI scores. Stroboscopic laryngoscopy showed medialization of the affected vocal folds, improved vocal fold closure and normal or nearly normal vocal fold mucosal waves. With a fat injection volume of 3.0-4.5 ml, the patient's subjective auditory perception scores of G, R, B and A improved more significantly within 3 months after surgery, and both VHI and MPT were significantly better since 1 year after surgery. With bilateral vocal fold injection, the B and A scores improved significantly from 1 month postoperatively compared to unilateral injections(unilateral vs. bilateral injection 1 month post-operation, tB scores=1.42,tA scores=1.51,P<0.05). Conclusions: The long-term efficacy of autologous fat injection in the paraglottic space for the treatment of unilateral vocal fold paralysis was stable. The efficacy of the surgery was related to the amount of fat injected, unilateral or bilateral of the injection.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Due to the increased morbidity, mortality, and cost of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in older people, strategies directed at improving disease evaluation and prevention are imperative. We independently compared the 30-day in-hospital mortality prediction ability of a frailty index based on laboratory data (FI-Lab) with that of the CURB-65 and the Pneumonia Severity Index (PSI) and then proposed combining them to further improve prediction efficiency. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS Patients aged ≥ 65 years (n = 2039) with CAP who were admitted to Jiangsu Provincial People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University and Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from January 2019 to June 2022. MEASURES The 29-item FI-Lab, PSI and, CURB-65 were administered at admission. We defined frailty by the cut-off value of the FI-Lab score (> 0.43). Multivariable logistic regression analysis, together with the calculation of the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC-AUC), was conducted to identify stratified risks and relationships between the three indices and 30-day mortality. Participants were divided into the following three groups based on age: 65-74 years, 75-84 years, and ≥ 85 years. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for mortality due to frailty were calculated. RESULTS A total of 495 participants ranging from 65 to 100 years of age were ultimately included and divided into age groups (65-74 years, n = 190, 38.4%; 75-84 years, n = 183, 37.0%; ≥ 85 years, n = 122, 24.6%). A total of 142 (28.7%) of the 495 patients were defined as having frailty. All three scores tested in this study were significantly associated with 30-day mortality in the total sample. The ORs were as follows: 1.06 (95% CI: 1.03-1.09, P < 0.001) and 2.33 (95% CI: 1.26-4.31, P = 0.007) for the FI-Lab when the score was treated as a continuous and categorical variable, respectively; 1.04 (95% CI: 1.02-1.05, P < 0.001) for the PSI; and 3.70 (95% CI: 2.48-5.50, P < 0.001) for the CURB-65. In the total sample, the ROC-AUCs were 0.783 (95% CI: 0.744-0.819) for the FI-Lab, 0.812 (95% CI: 0.775-0.845) for the PSI, and 0.799 (95% CI: 0.761-0.834) for the CURB-65 (P < 0.001). The ROC-AUC slightly improved when the FI-Lab was added to the PSI (AUC 0.850, 95% CI: 0.809-0.892, P = 0.031) and to the CURB-65 (AUC 0.839, 95% CI: 0.794-0.885, P = 0.002). Older patients with frailty showed a higher risk of in-hospital mortality, with an HR of 2.25 (95% CI: 1.14-3.58, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS The FI-Lab seems to generate simple and readily available data, suggesting that it could be a useful complement to the CURB-65 and the PSI as effective predictors of 30-day mortality due to CAP in older populations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the relationship between total bilirubin (TBil) and stroke risk in older patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). METHODS A total of 1,007 patients with OSAS without stroke history aged ≥ 60 years and with complete serum TBil records were enrolled in this study. The median follow-up was 42 months. Participants were divided into four groups based on the quartile of the baseline serum TBil concentration. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis and restricted cubic spline (RCS) were used to investigate the association of TBil with the incidence of new-onset stroke. RESULTS The PRIMARY part: the third quantile TBil level group had the lowest prevalence of stroke among the four groups. The RCS functions depicted a J-type curve relationship between TBil (3.3-33.3 µmol/L) and stroke (nonlinear P < 0.05). When the TBil level was in the range of 3.3 to 11.5 µmol/L, the possible protective influence of bilirubin against stroke in patients with OSAS enhanced with an increasing TBil level. However, when the TBil level exceeded 11.5 µmol/L and gradually increased, the effect of TBil on stroke risk became more and more pronounced. The SECONDARY part: for every 1 µmol/L increase in TBil levels in the range of 11.5 to 33.3 µmol/L, the risk of stroke in patients with OSAS increased by 16.2% (P < 0.001). In addition, there was a higher risk in women with OSAS (hazard ratio (HR)=1.292, 95% confidence interval (95%CI): 1.093-1.528; P = 0.003). Moreover, an increased TBil level alone was significantly associated with stroke in subjects aged < 75 years (HR: 1.190, 95%CI: 1.069-1.324), patients with mild-to-moderate OSAS (HR: 1.215, 95%CI: 1.083-1.364), and individuals without atrial fibrillation (AF) (HR: 1.179, 95%CI: 1.083-1.285) within a TBil level in the range of 11.5 to 33.3 µmol/L. CONCLUSIONS Both lower and higher bilirubin levels may increase the risk of stroke in older persons with OSAS, and there was a J-type dose-response relationship. The risk of stroke was lowest when the TBil level was approximately 11.5 µmol/L.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this 8-year follow-up study was to investigate the relationship between magnesium intake and frailty, as well as recurrent falls, in individuals diagnosed with Osteoarthritis (OA) or those at a heightened risk for developing the condition. METHODS This study utilized data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI) database and conducted a prospective cohort study with a 8-year follow-up period. Total magnesium intake from both food sources and supplements was assessed using a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ), while frailty and recurrent falls were evaluated through established criteria and self-report, respectively. To account for potential confounding factors, various covariates were considered, and statistical analyses, including generalized additive mixed models (GAMMs), were employed to examine the associations. RESULTS Among the 4,667 participants with OA, those with lower total magnesium intake were characterized by younger age, a higher proportion of African American individuals, higher body mass index (BMI), and lower dietary fiber intake (P<0.001). Notably, this group exhibited higher odds of experiencing recurrent falls and frailty (P = 0.034 and 0.006, respectively). Controlling for various factors, the GAMMs consistently revealed negative correlations between magnesium intake and the likelihood of frailty and recurrent falls, with each 1 mg/1000 kcal increase in magnesium intake associated with a 0.5% reduced frailty risk (p < 0.001) and a 0.2% decreased risk of recurrent falls (p = 0.001). Subgroup analyses suggested that increased total magnesium intake from both food sources and supplements may exert a more pronounced preventive effect on recurrent falls and frailty in men, older adults, individuals with normal BMI, and those with higher dietary fiber intake. CONCLUSIONS Elevated total magnesium intake from both food sources and supplements was found to be associated with a decreased risk of recurrent falls and frailty in individuals diagnosed with OA or those at risk of developing the condition. These findings imply that increased total magnesium intake might be beneficial in managing the risk of these outcomes, particularly within specific subgroups, including men, older adults, those with a normal BMI, and those with higher dietary fiber intake.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The brain-kidney axis was proposed to emphasize roles of kidney functioning in modulating neurodegeneration. We aimed to evaluate the associations of renal diseases and blood markers with risk of dementia or cognitive decline among non-demented adults. METHODS The PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane library were searched until February 1st, 2022, to include longitudinal studies. Multivariate adjusted effects were pooled by random-effects models. The robust error meta-regression models were used for dose-response analyses. The credibility of meta-analyses was graded and an innovative index (Sdifference) was developed to evaluate the evidence tendency. RESULTS A total of 41 longitudinal studies (6,480,136 participants, mean age range: 58.5-83.5 years) were included, of which 33 were for meta-analyses. Though with low level of evidence, five indicators of kidney were associated with increased risk of dementia or cognitive decline, including acute kidney injury (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.24, p = 0.0001), chronic kidney disease (HR = 1.29, p = 0.0001), higher serum creatinine (HR = 1.35, p = 0.0001), higher urine albumin creatine ratio (UACR, HR = 1.23, p = 0.0001), and lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR, HR = 1.18, p = 0.0001). A linear relationship was revealed for eGFR (p = 0.0217) or UACR (p = 0.0006). Heterogeneity is a main concern to jeopardize the evidence robustness, especially for eGFR (Sdifference = 0.05). CONCLUSION Some renal indicators were associated with a higher risk of dementia, though the evidence base warrants further strengthening. Renal function management might serve as a promising target for dementia prediction and prevention.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Frailty has become an independent risk factor for adverse outcomes in critically ill patients. This study aimed to explore the predictive ability of two electronic medical record-based frailty assessment tools, the Hospital Frailty Risk Score (HFRS) and Frailty Index based on physiological and laboratory tests (FI-lab), for long-term adverse prognosis in older critically ill survivors. DESIGN Retrospective observational study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS 9,082 critically ill survivors aged ≥ 65 years. MEASUREMENTS The HFRS and the 33-item FI-lab were constructed based on the published literature. Cox and logistic regression models assessed the association between frailty and 1-year mortality and post-discharge care needs. RESULTS 2,586 patients died within 1 year of follow-up. In fully adjusted models, frailty assessed using both the HFRS (per point, hazard ratio [HR] 1.06, 95% confidential interval [CI] 1.05-1.06; intermediate frailty risk, HR 2.00, 95% CI 1.78-2.25; high frailty risk, HR 3.06, 95% CI 2.68-3.50) and FI-lab (per 0.01 points, HR 1.03, 95% CI 1.03-1.03; intermediate frailty risk, HR 1.59, 95% CI 1.44-1.76; high frailty risk, HR 2.30, 95% CI 2.06-2.57) was associated with mortality. Addition of frailty indicators improved the predictive validity of the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score for mortality (HFRS alone ∆ C-index 0.034; FI-lab alone ∆ C-index 0.016; HFRS and FI-lab combined ∆ C-index 0.042). The HFRS but not the FI-lab was associated with higher probability of post-discharge care needs. CONCLUSION Both the HFRS and FI-lab could independently predict 1-year mortality in older critically ill survivors. Adding the HFRS to the SOFA score model improved it more than adding the FI-lab. The greatest improvement was achieved when both frailty indicators were used together. These findings suggest that electronic medical record-based frailty assessment methods can be useful tools for predicting long-term outcomes in older critically ill patients.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the value of clear cell likelihood score (ccLS) in identifying renal oncocytoma (RO) and clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Methods: Retrospective data of pathologically confirmed 43 RO patients [24 men and 19 women, aged 22-77 (54±14) years] between February 2008 and September 2021 and 43 ccRCC patients [30 men and 13 women, aged 29-78 (56±12) years] between May and July 2021 were consecutively included in the department of radiology, Chinese PLA General Hospital. Two radiologists used ccLS to assess each case independently, and disagreements were resolved by consensus. The ability of ccLS to identify RO and ccRCC was examined by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve which identified the best optimal diagnostic cut-off values, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value. Results: The mean tumor diameter was 3.8 cm in RO patients and 3.7 cm in ccRCC patients. Central scar and segmental enhancement inversion (SEI) were more frequently observed in the RO group compared to the ccRCC group [53.5% (23∶43) versus 11.6% (5∶43) and 41.9% (18∶43) versus 7.0% (3∶43), respectively], with statistical differences (P<0.001). The ccLS scores in the RO group ranged from 1 to 4, while 79.0% of the cases were 3. The ccLS scores in the ccRCC group ranged from 2 to 5, while 72% of the cases were 4. The scores of the two groups were statistically different (P<0.001). The ccLS showed the best performance when the threshold was 4 according to the ROC curve. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of ccLS for distinguishing RO from ccRCC were 83.7%, 90.7%, 87.2%, 90.0%, and 84.8%, respectively, and the area under the ROC curve value was 0.879. Conclusion: The ccLS has credible sensitivity and specificity in differentiating renal oncocytoma from clear cell carcinoma, which may be helpful for the preoperative diagnosis.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of dienogest (DNG) alone and gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) combined with DNG sequential treatment to adenomyosis. Methods: The clinical data of 110 patients with adenomyosis attending the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from December 2019 to March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 40 patients treated with DNG (2 mg/day) alone (DNG group) and 70 patients treated with sequential DNG (2 mg/day) after 3-6 injections of GnRH-a (GnRH-a+DNG group). The clinical data before and after treatment were compared between the two groups. Results: (1) The dysmenorrhea visual analogue scale (VAS) scores, cancer antigen 125 (CA125) and cancer antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) levels at different time periods after treatment were significantly lower than before treatment in both groups (median before treatment: DNG group 70.0 mm, 68.55 kU/L, 22.45 kU/L respectively, GnRH-a+DNG group 80.0 mm, 151.50 kU/L, 20.44 kU/L respectively; all P<0.001). (2) The hemoglobin (Hb) levels of patients in both groups at different time periods after treatment were significantly higher than those before treatment (median: DNG group 102.00 g/L, GnRH-a+DNG group 94.00 g/L; all P<0.001). (3) Treatment with DNG alone did not have a significant effect on uterine volume in patients of DNG group (P>0.05), and uterine volume decreased significantly in the 15th-24th months of GnRH-a+DNG group compared with that before treatment (median: 167.76 vs 227.77 cm3; P<0.05). (4) There were no significant differences in hepatic and renal function and coagulation indexes between the two groups before and after treatment (all P>0.05), and no significant abnormal lesions were observed in breast tissue during the follow-up period. (5) The incidence of amenorrhea of GnRH-a+DNG group was higher than that of DNG group, and the incidences of irregular spotting bleeding and breakthrough hemorrhage were lower than those in DNG group. Conclusions: Whether DNG is used alone or in combination with GnRH-a in sequence, it could significantly relieve dysmenorrhea symptoms, improve the level of Hb, reduce the levels of CA125 and CA19-9 in patients with adenomyosis, with no adverse effects on coagulation and hepatic or renal function. GnRH-a sequential DNG therapy is superior to DNG alone in improving uterine bleeding patterns and controlling the growth of uterine volume in patients with adenomyosis.

Abstract
Objective: To understand the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and related factors in adults in Anhui province based on the data of Chinese Chronic Diseases and Nutrition Surveillance program (2018) in Anhui. Methods: Multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling was used to select participants aged ≥18 years. Moreover, questionnaire survey, body measurements and laboratory tests were conducted. The complex weighting method was used to estimate the prevalence of CKD in residents with different characteristics, and complex sampling data logistic regression model was used for multivariate analysis to identify related risk factors. Results: A total of 7 181 participants were included. The overall prevalence of CKD was 11.06% in adults in Anhui, and the prevalence was 12.49% in women and 9.59% in men (P<0.05). The moderate, high and very high risk for CKD progression were 8.66%, 2.02% and 0.38%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that age (OR=1.03, 95%CI: 1.00-1.05), BMI (OR=1.05, 95%CI: 1.01-1.09), being woman (OR=1.38,95%CI: 1.22-1.55), hypertension (OR=2.50, 95%CI: 1.76-3.56), diabetes (OR=2.28, 95%CI: 1.51-3.43), dyslipidemia (OR=1.26, 95%CI: 1.11-1.43) and hyperuricemia (OR=2.16, 95%CI: 1.68-2.78) were risk factors for CKD. Conclusion: The prevalence of CKD in adults in Anhui was relatively high and age, gender, BMI, hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia and hyperuricemia were found to be associated with the prevalence of CKD. To prevent CKD and its complications, attention should be paid to the management of related risk factors, including overweight and obesity, hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia and hyperuricemia.

Abstract
Using a sample of (10.09±0.04)×10^{9} J/ψ events collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring, a partial wave analysis of the decay J/ψ→γηη^{'} is performed. The first observation of an isoscalar state with exotic quantum numbers J^{PC}=1^{-+}, denoted as η_{1}(1855), is reported in the process J/ψ→γη_{1}(1855) with η_{1}(1855)→ηη^{'}. Its mass and width are measured to be (1855±9_{-1}^{+6}) MeV/c^{2} and (188±18_{-8}^{+3}) MeV, respectively, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic, and its statistical significance is estimated to be larger than 19σ.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical, genetic, and clonality related aspects of individuals with Richter transformation (RT) . Methods: From January 2019 to December 2021, 18 RT patients with diagnoses at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University (Pukou CLL center) were retrospectively examined. The immunoglobin heavy variable (IGHV) gene usage and IGHV-D-J rearrangement pattern of diagnosed CLL/SLL and transformed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) were compared to determine the clonality relatedness. To investigate the risk factors of RT, Clinical and laboratory data from patients with newly diagnosed CLL/SLL and transformed DLBCL were gathered. Results: The median age of RT was 56.5 (41-75) years old. 17 patients transformed to DLBCL and 1 transformed to Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) . Of 17 individuals who had DLBCL transformation, 15 had CLL/SLL-related clonality and 2 had unrelated clonality. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis of 11 paired initially diagnosed treatment-naive CLL/SLL and RT DLBCL found that EGR2、TP53 and NOTCH1 were among the most frequently mutated genes both in treatment-naive CLL/SLL and in RT DLBCL. In several cases, specific mutations were gained or lost throughout RT, indicating clonal evolution. Among 10 patients before exposure to BTK inhibitors before RT, four patients acquired BTK mutation. The aforementioned mutations should be considered high-risk variables for transformation; in addition, TP53 and EGR2 mutations could be linked to a poor prognosis following RT in patients receiving a cocktail of new medicines. Conclusion: Most RT DLBCL patients in our center are clonality related (15/17, 88.2% ) and we recommend all qualified centers to evaluate clonality relatedness of RT DLBCL patients. There was some variability in the mutational landscape between DLBCL that had undergone a transformation and initially diagnosed, treatment-naive CLL/SLL. The underlying molecular mechanism of RT needs more research.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose
Patients with left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) are associated with increased risk of thromboembolism including system embolism (SE) and stroke. Moreover, left atrial (LA) diameter was proved to be a strong predictor for stroke and SE [1]. This study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of left atrial diameter on the risk of thromboembolism in patients with LVNC.
Methods
This retrospective longitudinal study enrolled 302 patients (median age 46 years, 65.9% male) diagnosed as LVNC through echocardiography or cardiac nuclear magnetic according to Jenni criteria [2] and Petersen criteria [3], respectively. The primary endpoint was thromboembolism events including SE and stroke.
Results
The 302 patients with LVNC were divided into 2 groups: large LA group (LA diameter ≥43mm, n=155) and small LA group (LA diameter<43mm, n=147), according to the median of LA diameter. After a median follow-up of 4.3 years, 19 cases (6.3%) patients occurred thromboembolism events. In the large LA group, 16 patients (10.3%) occurred thromboembolism events while there were 3 cases (2.0%) suffering from SE/stroke in the small LA group (p<0.05). The Kaplan-Meier curves (Figure 1) compared by the log-rank test showed that the large LA group was associated with a higher risk of thromboembolism events and the difference between the 2 groups was significant (p<0.05). Crude Cox regression model results revealed that LA diameter was an independent risk factor for thromboembolism events in patients with LVNC (Crude HR 1.07, 95% CI 1.02–1.12, p=0.004). After adjusting for prior heart failure, NYHA class, atrial fibrillation, prior stroke, coronary artery disease, pulmonary arterial hypertension, family history of cardiomyopathy, LA diameter was still associated with increased thrombotic risk (Adjusted HR 4.98, 95% CI 1.07–23.04, p=0.04). Moreover, the ROC curves (Figure 2) showed that the AUC of LA diameter was 0.692 and even better than the CHA2DS2-VASc score (AUC=0.576).
Conclusion
The current study indicated that LA diameter is an effective predictor of thrombotic risk in patients with LVNC. Moreover, extra attention is needed in LVNC patients with larger LA diameters for the risk of thromboembolism.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose
This study aims to investigate the relationship between atrial fibrillation (AF) and the prognosis of patients with left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC).
Methods
This retrospective study enrolled 302 patients (median age 46 years, 65.9% male) diagnosed as LVNC through echocardiography or cardiac nuclear magnetic according to Jenni criteria1 and Petersen criteria2, respectively. The primary endpoint is major cardiovascular adverse events (MACEs) which is a composite endpoint including heart transplantation, deaths in-hospital, stroke, system embolism, malignant ventricular arrhythmia, and rehospitalization for cardiovascular reasons. The second endpoints are thromboembolism events including system embolism and stroke.
Results
The patients with LVNC were divided into 2 groups: with AF group (n=56) and without AF group (n=246). In the group of patients combined with AF and LVNC, the proportion of CHA2DS2-VASc score≥2 was 66.07%. The rate of receiving oral anticoagulant therapy in LVNC patients with AF was significantly higher than without the AF group (69.64% vs. 19.51%, p<0.01). After a median follow-up of 4.3 years, a total of 69 MACEs (22.85%) and 19 thromboembolism events (6.3%) occurred. Among them, 49 MACEs in the non-AF group (19.92%) while 20 cases (35.71%) occurred MACEs in the AF group (p=0.01). Moreover, the rate of thromboembolism in the AF group was notably higher compared with the non-AF group (16.1% vs. 4.1%, p=0.01). The Kaplan-Meier curves (Figure 1) compared by the log-rank test showed that the AF group was associated with a higher risk of thromboembolism events than the non-AF group and the difference between the 2 groups was significant (p<0.05). Crude Logistic regression model results revealed that AF was associated with increased risk of MACEs in patients with LVNC [Crude odds ratio (OR) 2.23, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.19–4.19, p=0.01]. Adjusted Logistic regression model indicated that AF was still an independent risk factor (adjusted OR 2.43, 95% CI 1.08–5.45, p=0.03) for MACEs after adjusting for other risk factors including age, heart rate, syncope, heart failure, NYHA class, cardio-pulmonary resuscitation history, hypertension, prior stroke, prior system embolism, family history of cardiomyopathy, levels of NT-pro-BNP, left atrial diameter, left ventricular ejection fraction, oral anticoagulant therapy and antiplatelet therapy.
Conclusion
This current study indicated that AF is associated with a worse prognosis in patients with LVNC. Extra attention is needed in clinical practice for LVNC patients with AF.
