Abstract
Objective: To retrospectively analyze of the prevention and management of major complications in surgical treatment of osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the mandible by using vascularized free flaps and to provide a reference for improving clinical treatments. Methods: All cases diagnosed as mandibular ORN and received surgical treatment in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Guanghua School of Stomatology, Hospital of Stomatology, Sun Yat-sen University from August 2014 to March 2019 were included. The patients' clinical data, mainly including general information, primary tumor, interval time between radiotherapy and osteoradionecrosis, surgical methods and postoperative complications, were collected. The data of surgical methods and postoperative complications of these patients were compared with the similar data of patients with malignant tumor surgically treated by using vascularized free flaps during the same period. Results: The postoperative follow-up data of 104 patients with mandibular ORN, who underwent surgery in our hospital, were collected. In the control group, surgeries of vascularized free flap transfer were performed in 430 patients with malignant tumor. Among the 34 ORN cases (34/104, 32.7%) of segmental resection with vascularized free flap transfer, there were 13 cases (13/34, 38.2%) of postoperative local infection in maxillofacial area, 6 cases (17.6%) of pulmonary infection, 2 cases (5.9%) of venous thrombosis, 3 cases (8.8%) of anastomotic artery rupture and 5 cases (14.7%) of vascular crisis. One case died of depression and misanthropy. Meanwhile, among 430 patients with malignant tumor who underwent surgeries of vascular free flap reconstruction, 25 cases (5.8%) had postoperative local infection and 29 cases (6.7%) had pulmonary infection. Vascular crisis occurred in 12 cases (2.8%) and anastomotic artery rupture in 1 case (0.2%). No venous thrombosis and misanthropy occurred. The incidence of postoperative complications in mandibular ORN was much higher than that of vascularized free flap transfer surgeries in malignant tumor cases (P<0.05). Conclusions: Compared with patients with malignant tumors undergoing vascularized free flap transfer surgeries, patients with mandibular ORN undergoing same surgeries are more likely to have postoperative complications. This study may help clinicians to fully understand the local, general and psychological conditions during the perioperative period of ORN patients.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD), ischemic and hemorrhagic cardiovascular events among Chinese diabetic patients aged 40 years and above with different CVD risk levels. Methods: This study enrolled participants aged 40 years and above in 15 provinces from a prospective cohort study, the China-PAR project (Prediction for Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Risk in China). Participants were categorized into two groups according to the presence or absence of diabetes at baseline. Individuals were further classified into low (0-4.9%), moderate (5%-9.9%) and high risk groups (≥10%), based on predicted ten-year CVD risk using the China-PAR equations. Two followed-up surveys were conducted between 2007 and 2015 to identify CVD events, which were defined as nonfatal acute myocardial infarction, or death due to coronary heart disease, or stroke. Ischemic cardiovascular events included nonfatal acute myocardial infarction, or death due to coronary heart disease, or ischemic stroke. Hemorrhagic cardiovascular events included subarachnoid hemorrhage and intracerebral hemorrhage. The incidences of CVD, ischemic and hemorrhagic cardiovascular events were compared in diabetes and non-diabetes population with different CVD risk levels. Results: This study included 89 209 participants aged 40 years and above, the average follow-up period was 8.5 years. The age was (54.8±9.4) years, and 36 794 (41.2%) were men, and 5 730 (6.4%) were diabetic patients. In diabetes patients aged 40 years and above, 53.7% (3 075/5 730) were at high risk of CVD. Age-and sex-adjusted incidence of CVD, ischemic and hemorrhagic cardiovascular events (1 066.93/100 000 person-years, 824.23/100 000 person-years, and 211.56/100 000 person-years) were significantly lower in diabetes patients than those in non-diabetes population with high CVD risk (1 773.73/100 000 person-years, 1 228.18/100 000 person-years, and 446.49/100 000 person-years) (all P<0.001). Among high CVD risk populations, incidence of ischemic events was significantly higher in diabetic patients than in non-diabetes population (1 638.47/100 000 person-years vs. 1 228.18/100 000 person-years, P<0.001), but incidence of hemorrhagic events tended to be lower in diabetic patients than in non-diabetes population (415.70/100 000 person-years vs. 446.49/100 000 person-years, P=0.635). Incidence of ischemic and hemorrhagic events were similar between diabetes patients and non-diabetes population at low or moderate CVD risk groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions: More than half of diabetes patients aged 40 years and above in China have high CVD risk. The incidence of CVD, ischemic and hemorrhagic cardiovascular events are different in diabetic patients with different CVD risk levels.

Abstract
Objective: To analyse the clinical history, laboratory tests and pathological data of a patient who suffered from novel coronavirus pneumonia(COVID-19) and provide reference for the clinical treatment of similar cases. Methods: Data of clinical manifestation, laboratory examination, bronchoscopy, echocardiography and cardiopulmonary pathological results were retrospectively reviewed in a case of COVID-19 with rapid exacerbation from mild to critical condition. Results: This patient hospitalized at day 9 post 2019 novel coronavirus(2019-nCoV) infection, experienced progressive deterioration from mild to severe at day 12, severe to critical at day 18 and underwent extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO) and continuous renal replacement therapy(CRRT) as well as heart lung transplantation during day 28-45 post infection, and died at the second day post heart and lung transplantation. The patient had suffered from hypertension for 8 years. At the early stage of the disease, his symptoms were mild and the inflammatory indices increased and the lymphocyte count decreased continuously. The patient's condition exacerbated rapidly with multi-organ infections, and eventually developed pulmonary hemorrhage and consolidation, pulmonary hypertension, right heart failure, malignant ventricular arrhythmias, liver dysfunction, etc. His clinical manifestations could not be improved despite viral RNAs test results became negative. The patient underwent lung and heart transplantation and finally died of multi organ failure at the second day post lung and heart transplantation. Pathological examination indicated massive mucus, dark red secretions and blood clots in bronchus. The pathological changes were mainly diffused pulmonary hemorrhagic injuries and necrosis, fibrosis, small vessel disease with cardiac edema and lymphocyte infiltration. Conclusions: The clinical course of severe COVID-19 can exacerbate rapidly from mild to critical with lung, liver and heart injuries.

Abstract
AIMS Phospholipase A2 (PLA2 ) is a diverse superfamily that hydrolyzes fatty acyl ester bonds at the sn-2 position of phospholipids. The correlation between phospholipid metabolism and the anabolism of neutral lipids remains unclear in yeasts. This study aims to explore the effects of PLA2 on lipid accumulation in the oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica. METHODS AND RESULTS This study identified an actively expressed phospholipase A2 gene (PLA2-3, YAIL0_E16060g) in Y. lipolytica by quantitative PCR analysis. The gene PLA2-3 was disrupted in the strain po1gΔKu70 by homologous recombination and in the strain po1g-G3 by a CRISPR-Cas9 system, which caused an increase in stress sensitivity while the cell growth was not altered under fermentative conditions. Lipid production was performed in both flasks and bioreactors. The results showed that the lipid titre and lipid content were improved over 25% and 8-30%, respectively, in PLA2-3 disrupted strains compared to the controls. CONCLUSIONS Disruption of the phospholipase PLA2-3 gene could effectively improve lipid production in Y. lipolytica. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This study presented a strategy on improving the lipid production of oleaginous yeasts and a similar strategy might be used in other oleaginous microbes.

Abstract
Objective: To identify predictors of massive blood loss after posterior hemivertebra resection for patients with congenital scoliosis. Methods: The data of 106 children with congenital scoliosis were collected from June 2017 to June 2019 in Beijing Children's Hospital. All the cases received posterior hemivertebra resection and internal fixation. The blood volume was estimated by weight and height. The visible blood loss was recorded according to medical record, and the hidden blood loss was calculated by OSTHEO formula. Perioperative information including age, gender, height, weight, Cobb and kyphosis angle, level fused, number of screws, operative time, and laboratory examinations was collected. Then multivariable linear regression was performed to determine the independent risk factors of blood loss. Results: All the surgeries were completed successfully. The mean age of the children was (7.3±2.3) years and the operative time was (162±56) min. The mean fused levels were 3 and the correction rate for deformity was 78.4%. The amount of blood loss was (568±208) ml which accounted for 42.3% of total blood volume. The visible and hidden blood loss was (334±193) ml and (234±199) ml, respectively, and which accounted for 58.8% and 41.2% of total blood loss. Multivariable linear regression analysis indicated that age, preoperative Cobb angle, the time of surgery and the number of fused levels were independent risk factors of total blood loss. Preoperative Cobb angle ≥40°, spinal fusion ≥4 levels and operative duration ≥140 min indicated more blood loss (all P<0.05). Conclusions: The perioperative blood loss of congenital scoliosis is massive with a high percentage of hidden blood loss. The patients with severe deformity, more fused levels and increased operative time brings higher risk of massive blood loss.

Abstract
Effectiveness of seasonal influenza vaccines varies greatly during the different flu seasons. Although the WHO assesses and updates influenza vaccine strains every year, the effectiveness of vaccine is sometimes not good. This review explores the various factors that influencing influenza vaccine effects in order to improve the effectiveness of influenza vaccines and provide a scientific basis for influenza vaccination. The results reveal that the degree of matching between epidemic strains and vaccine strains, pre-exposure (natural infection, vaccination), age, and immune status could all affect the vaccine effectiveness.

Abstract
Vaccine efficacy can be assessed by a randomized placebo-control trial prior to marketing. However, after the marketing of a vaccine, if a placebo-randomized control trial is used to evaluate the efficacy of the vaccine, ethical issues will arise. Therefore, the evaluation of the efficacy of a vaccine after marketing has become a difficult problem in the public health field. In recent years, the research method of test-negative design has been widely used in the world for the evaluations of the efficacies of different post-marketing vaccines, such as influenza vaccine, rotavirus vaccine, cholera vaccine, pneumonia vaccine and EV71 vaccine. However, there are limited reports in the domestic literature on the test-negative design. Therefore, we summarize the basic principles, application steps, advantages and disadvantages of the test-negative design to provide theoretical methods and basis for the future study of test-negative design in China.

Abstract
From 1987 to 2017, cardiovascular disease (CVD) had been ranking the first cause of death in Suzhou, and the mortality rate showed an upward trend annual percentage changes (APC=0.62%, P=0.001), while the standardized mortality rate showed a downward trend (APC=-2.65%, P<0.001). The probability of premature death of CVD declined consistently from 7.06% in 1987 to 2.00% in 2017 (APC=-4.45%, P<0.001). When the life expectancy was set at 70, the potential years of life lost rate (PYLLR) decreased from 6.35‰ in 1987 to 3.30‰ in 2017, and the standardized PYLLR decreased from 7.30‰ to 2.68‰. When the life expectancy was set at 75, the PYLLR decreased from 10.12‰ to 5.19‰, and the standardized PYLLR decreased from 11.44‰ to 3.88‰. With the increase of years, all PYLLR and standardized PYLLR showed a significantly downward trend (APC=-2.51%--3.89%, P<0.001).

Abstract
There are many limitations in evaluating vaccine efficacy by comparing the incidence of clinical endpoint events (such as morbidity, bacterial colonization) between the vaccine group and the control group. Therefore, the researchers put forward the concept of Surrogate of protection to predict vaccine protection with immunological indicators. In 2012, WHO put forward the immunological substitution endpoint of pneumococcal vaccine, using 0. 35 μg/ml as the protective antibody level of pneumococcal vaccine. But subsequent studies have found that using this threshold to assess all vaccine serotypes may not be accurate.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the expression and prognosis effect of methylation-regulated SLIT3 and SPRCL1 genes in smoking-related lung adenocarcinoma. Methods: The expression levels of SLIT3 and SPARCL1 in cigarette smoke-induced malignant transformed cell (S30) and lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) cell lines were measured by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (qPCR). Datasets of mRNA expression, DNA methylation and patient information data were obtained from The Cancer Genome Altas (TCGA) database. The mRNA expression levels of SLIT3 and SPARCL1 were validated in LUAD tissues. The 10-year survival curve of LUAD patients with different smoking history was plotted, and the correlation between mRNA expression level and DNA methylation level of LUAD patients was further analyzed. S30 cells were treated with 5-azacytidine (5-aza), an inhibitor of DNA methyltransferase, to analyze the methylation regulatory mechanism of SLIT3 and SPRCL1. Results: The qPCR results showed the significant down-regulation of SLIT3 and SPARCL1 in S30 cell and four LUAD cell lines (SLIT3: 0.493±0.134 and 0.041±0.014, 0.161±0.023, 0.277±0.055, 0.035±0.005; SPARCL1: 0.507±0.131 and 0.453±0.045, 0.420±0.040, 0.153±0.035, 0.430±0.050; all P<0.01). Bioinformatics analysis showed that SLIT3 and SPARCL1 were low expressed in LUAD tissue (8.12±1.58 vs 10.84±0.69 and 11.46±1.06 vs 13.57±0.67; both P<0.001) compared with adjacent peritumoral tissues, and expression levels of SLIT3 and SPARCL1 were significantly correlated with smoking history (both P<0.001). Non-smoker with high expression of SLIT3 and SPARCL1 was associated with better prognosis among LUAD patients. There was a significant negative correlation between promoter methylation and mRNA expression level of the two genes (r=-0.208, -0.574; both P<0.001). 5-aza treatment significantly up-regulated the expression levels of SLIT3 and SPARCL1 genes in S30 cells (2.137±0.281, 3.657±0.882; both P<0.01). Conclusion: SLIT3 and SPARCL1 can be regulated by DNA methylation and down-regulated in LUAD tissue, which has important prognostic significance on the smoking-induced LUAD patients.

Abstract
Maternal immunization is an immune strategy that protects both mothers and early-life infants from disease by the vaccination of pregnant women. The effect of maternal immunization is influenced by the types of vaccines, the timing of vaccination, the subtypes of antibodies induced by vaccines, and the health status of mothers themselves. Inactivated influenza vaccination during pregnancy and DPT vaccination during the third trimester of pregnancy have been widely used in the world, while Hepatitis B vaccine, pneumococcal and meningococcal vaccines also show good efficacy and safety in pregnant women. This article reviews the research progress of Maternal Immunization in order to provide a reference for Maternal Immunization planning and policymaking in China.

Abstract
Due to immature development of the immune system, preterm infants are at increased risk of infections from vaccine-preventable diseases. But at the same time, premature vaccination may not induce a good immune response because of the incomplete development of the neonatal immune system, and may cause serious adverse reactions risk due to the poor immune tolerance, thus vaccination of preterm infants at the appropriate time is the key to reducing the risk of infectious disease and obtaining vaccine protection. At present, it is generally recommended that the gestational age and birth weight should be considered in the vaccination of preterm infants. The timing, type and even the immunization schedule of the vaccine should be differ from that of the full term infants. However, there is a lack of research results and data on immunization program in preterm infants in China, and there is still no provided universal guidelines for their vaccine immunization. This article aims to summarize the guidelines and clinical trials of vaccination of preterm infants in foreign countries, and to provide reference for the formulation and implementation of immunization strategies for preterm infants in China.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To understand the laboratory technicians' abilities in blood slide making and reading in 10 prefectures of Yunnan Province which have passed the provincial malaria elimination evaluation, so as to provide the evidence for improving the malaria elimination surveillance and parasite examination. METHODS Thirty negative blood slides were randomly sampled to evaluate coating, dyeing and clean quality and reading results, and 4 laboratory technicians were sampled to evaluate their reading abilities from each prefecture level and its 2 subordinate counties (districts) respectively, and then the results were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 869 negative blood samples were evaluated. The coincidence rate was 100%. The proportions of good coating, dyeing and clean quality were 96.09%, 91.71% and 96.89%, respectively. Totally 576 blood slides were used to evaluate the reading ability. The number of correct reading was 505, and the correct rate was 87.67%. Among them, the Plasmodium vivax correct reading rate was 87.76%, the P. falciparum correct reading rate was 87.50%, and the correct reading rate of mixed infections was 47.62%. The laboratory technicians' ability to the mixed infections was significantly lower than the ability to the others (χ2 = 37.169, P < 0.05), however, in the laboratory technicians' abilities, there was no significant difference among the center (s) for disease control and prevention, general hospitals and township hospitals (χ2 = 2.782, P > 0.05), and the prefecture, county and township levels (χ2 = 0.358, P > 0.05) . CONCLUSIONS The 10 prefectures have passed the provincial evaluation in blood slide making and microscopic examination skill indicators requested, but the medical and public health institutions at all levels still should further improve their laboratory technicians' abilities in blood slide making and microscopic examination skills.

Abstract
The importance of vaccine on public health is related to the herd protection related to the levels of vaccine coverage, which directly influences the vaccinated individuals as well as the unvaccinated community. Reaching the level of herd protection by increasing vaccine coverage is the basic strategy to eradicate related infectious diseases. Again, herd protection has played an important role in public health practices. With the increasing interests in estimating the vaccine herd protection, we however, have seen only few relevant papers including observational population-based and cluster-randomized clinical trials reported in China. We hope to discuss the study designs for evaluating the vaccine herd protection in order to generate evidence-based related research in this field.

Abstract
Acinar cell carcinoma is a rare type of low-grade malignant tumor of the parotid gland epithelium. The progression of the disease is slow, and its tissue type and cell morphology are diverse. The diagnosis of tumor is difficult so that it is easy to cause missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis. A 72-year-old patient, without the history of surgery and trauma, complained of nasal congestion, bloody sputum, and loss of olfactory. CT and MRI suggested that the nasal cavity and sinuses were occupied with soft tissue. An endoscopic nasal cavity and sinus mass resection was performed under general anesthesia. No recurrence was observed after 1 year of follow-up. The nasal symptoms disappeared and the recovery effect was good.

Abstract
Genes play an important role in the immune system response, and different gene loci may result in different vaccine immune response rates. This review focuses on the correlation between gene polymorphisms and vaccine immune response in order to investigate the influence of gene polymorphisms on the immune response to vaccines. It discusses the effect of an individual's immune response after vaccination at genetic level and provides a scientific basis for individualized immune development strategies. It reveals that human leukocyte antigen genes, various cytokines and their receptor genes, and Toll-like receptor genes all affect the vaccine immune response.

Abstract
Objective: To observe the expression of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and FGFR4 in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and its relationship with atrial fibrosis. Methods: Fifty-one patients with rheumatic heart disease undergoing cardiac surgery at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from October 2016 to April 2017 were divided into two groups according to whether they were complicated with atrial fibrillation: 39 patients with persistent AF(AF group), and 12 patients with sinus rhythm (SR group). The right atrial appendage was cut out during cardiac surgery. The expression of FGF23 and FGFR4 mRNA was detected by quantitative real-time PCR. The expression of FGFR4 protein was detected by Western blot. Atrial structure was evaluated by echocardiography. Masson staining was used to evaluate the degree of atrial fibrosis. The expression of FGF23 and FGFR4 was compared between the two groups.Additionally, the relationship between FGF23 and FGFR4 expression and atrial fibrosis was evaluated. Results: AF group had significantly higher right and left atrial diameter than SR group((40.1±1.6 )mm vs (34.1±1.5)mm, (52.4±2.9)mm vs (41.3±2.4)mm, all P<0.05) . There were no statistically significant differences in age, gender, ejection fraction between the two groups. The expression of FGF23 and FGFR4 mRNA in AF group were significantly higher than those in SR group (1.93±0.32 vs 0.93±0.14, 1.89±0.17 vs 0.91±0.11, both P<0.05). Compared with the SR group, the protein expression of FGFR4 in the AF group was significantly higher(1.76±0.21 vs 0.84±0.12). In AF group, there was no correlation between FGF23 mRNA and atrial diameter (r=0.274 (left atrial), r=0.238 (right atrium), both P>0.05). Meanwhile, FGFR4 mRNA and protein expression had no correlation with atrial diameter either. There was positive correlation between FGF23 mRNA and atrial collagen volume fraction in AF group (r=0.42, P<0.05). The expression of FGFR4 mRNA and protein were positively correlated with the atrial collagen volume fraction (r=0.573, r=0.478, all P<0.05). Conclusion: The expression of FGF23 and FGFR4 in atrial fibrillation patients is increased, which is positively correlated with atrial fibrosis, suggesting that FGF23/FGFR4 pathway may play an important role in atrial fibrillation by promoting atrial fibrosis.

Abstract
Osteomas are slow growing bony tumors of the nasal sinuses. Ethmoid osteomas with orbital extension are unusual. Any surgical approach has to take into account protection of the vital structures, particularly the optic nerve and internal rectus muscle, skull base. A 65-year-old man, without past medical history, was referred to our hospital with a 1-month history of double vision and persisting pain around the left eye. Three-dimensional computed tomography (CT) revealed a large calcified dense mass measuring 32 mm × 25 mm × 25 mm in the left ethmoidal sinus with orbital extension. An endoscopic endonasal approach combined with inner canthus way was planned. Most of the tumor was removed from nasal cavity, the rest part of the tumor was taken out of the inner canthus incision. The medial wall of the orbital cavity was repaired with titanium mesh. No cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage was observed during the procedure. The patient recovered rapidly and had no visual impairment and occular motility disorders after operation. The double vision was alleviated and disappeared after one months. Treatment of large ethmoid osteomas requires a combined approach to prevent injury to the orbital content. The cooperation of both otolaryngologists and ophthalmologists is necessary to achieve risk-free surgery.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the relationship between neutrophil lymphocyte ratio(NLR) and platelet lymphocyte ratio(PLR) and the incidence of sudden deafness and its impact on the prognosis. Method: The clinical data of 203 patients with sudden deafness was retrospectively analyzed.Pure tone audiometry, complete blood count and other related examinations were performed before treatment. Hearing type was depending on the diagnostic criteria of sudden deafness; NLR and PLR were calculated. After that, pure tone audiometry was reviewed again and the hearing changes were recorded.The control group was 203 healthy persons without infectious disease. Result: The median NLR and PLR of the sudden deafness group were 2.8 and 126.4, respectively, and that of the control group were 1.4 and 96.9 respectively.The difference between the two groups was statistically significant(P<0.01). The median NLR and PLR of the recovery group were 2.4 and 116.9, and that of the unrecovered group were 3.4 and 145.0,respectively, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). No significant difference of NLR or PLR was observed among the low medium frequency type, high frequency type, flat type and total deafness type for each two pairs(P>0.05). Conclusion: NLR and PLR are higher in patients with sudden deafness than the healthy controls, and are higher in the unrecovered group than in the recovery group. Our result supports the role of inflammatory theory in the pathogenesis of sudden deafness.Therefore, NLR and PLR can be used as a new reliable indicator to evaluate the prognosis of sudden deafness, but NLR and PLR may not have a significant correlation with hearing classification.

Abstract
Persistently high risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is one of the indispensable factors of cervical cancer, which is the secondly most common cancer of women in developing countries. Nowadays HPV DNA detection has been more frequently used in cervical cancer initial screening. However, the specificity and sensitivity of HPV DNA detection are low and the triage of HPV positive women is necessary to identify the authentically high-risk population, and avoid the waste of health care resource and excessive treatment. There are different advantages and disadvantages in triage methods including the cytology, HPV DNA genotype, HPV mRNA detection and biological markers such as p16/Ki-67, respectively. Here we briefly describe and evaluate each triage method.

Abstract
Electron cyclotron emission imaging (ECEI) and microwave imaging reflectometry diagnostics have been employed on a number of magnetic fusion plasma confinement devices. The common approach is based on a Gaussian beam assumption, which generates good spatial resolution (centimeter level). However, the radial focal depth is limited by the poloidal resolution, which is comparable with the Rayleigh length (∼150 mm). By contrast, a new Bessel beam approach has been developed and demonstrated to generate much longer focal depth with the property of propagation stability. To test the new approach, the DIII-D tokamak LCP ECEI optics have been re-designed to support a Bessel beam approach based on an axicon lens. The achievable radial coverage can exceed that of the current Gaussian approach by 3×. The imaging result is discussed in this paper based on the simulation analysis and laboratory testing result.
