Abstract
This research work reports a novel method to achieve fast liquid metal (LM) injection in blind-end microchannels which is especially suitable for multi-layer microfluidic chips. This method is based on a texture-like surface bonding technology. The texture-like surface is fabricated on a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) slab with standard soft-lithography technology and bonded with another PDMS slab with microelectrode patterns on it. When injected with LM, the texture-like structure can prevent the LM from entering but allows the air inside to be released during the injection to achieve perfect blind-end complex LM electrodes. The experimental results show that it can achieve fast and perfect LM injection in the blind-end pattern and can also prevent the large area of the flat chamber from collapsing during bonding. We also parametrically studied the texture structure's size for bonding strength between the texture structure and the blank PDMS surface. In addition, we integrate three layers of blind-end complex liquid metal patterns into one multi-layer chip using this technology and later use this structure to realize series connection of two LM-based electroosmotic micropumps (EOP). Compared with the conventional LM-based EOP, the structure of the EOP chip was greatly simplified and resulted in a higher level of integration.

Efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab with preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with resectable locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinomas. Front Immunol 2023; 14:1189752. [PMID: 37583698 PMCID: PMC10425220 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1189752] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2023] [Accepted: 07/11/2023] [Indexed: 08/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Background This study aimed to explore the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab combined with chemotherapy as neoadjuvant therapy in patients with resectable locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (LA-HNSCCs). Methods In this prospective, single-arm, single-centre clinical trial, patients meeting the inclusion criteria were treated with preoperative neoadjuvant therapy with 200 mg pembrolizumab combined with 75 mg/m2 cisplatin and 175 mg/m2 paclitaxel. This was followed by surgery and postoperative adjuvant therapy. The primary endpoint was the postoperative pathological complete response (pCR) rate. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 26. Results A total of 22 patients were enrolled. The location of primary lesion showed: hypopharynx were 15 (68.2%), oropharynx were 6 (27.3%) and oral cavity was 1 (4.5%). The postoperative pCR rate, was 36.4% (8/22), and there was no delay to surgery due to adverse drug reactions. The rate of laryngeal function preservation was 90.9% (20/22). Delayed wound healing was the main surgical complication, with an incidence of 22.7% (5/22). The median follow-up time was 9.5 months, and only 1 patient (4.55%) suffered a regional recurrence. Conclusion Preoperative treatment with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy in resectable LA-HNSCC has a high pCR rate with no significant impact on surgical safety. This treatment was found to increase the rate of laryngeal function preservation. However, the effects of neoadjuvant immunotherapy on long-term prognosis in LA-HNSCCs require further study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Kawasaki disease (KD) can lead to permanent damage to coronary structures, the pathogenesis of which remains unknown. This experiment was designed to investigate whether miR-223-3p secreted in the serum of KD patients affects the proliferation and apoptosis of HCAECs in KD by regulating FOXP3. METHODS Blood samples were collected in acute febrile phase of KD, after IVIG treatment, and from healthy controls. Transfected into HCAECs cells by synthetic FOXP3 siRNA/NC. A co-culture system was established between HCAECs cells transfected with FOXP3 siRNA/NC and THP1 cells added with three sera. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the expressions of miR-223-3p, RORγt, and Th17 in serum of KD patients were significantly upregulated, and the expressions of TGF-β1, FOXP3 and Treg were significantly downregulated. At the same time, the levels of IL-6, IL-17, and IL-23 were significantly increased, and the levels of IL-10 and FOXP3 were significantly decreased. After IVIG treatment, the patient's above results were reversed. The serum of KD patients increased the expression of miR-223-3p and inhibited the expression of FOXP3 in HCAECs cells. IVIG serum is the opposite. Overexpression of miR-223-3p also promoted the apoptosis of HCAECs. In addition, serum from KD patients promoted apoptosis, whereas serum after IVIG treatment inhibited apoptosis. KD patient serum downregulated the expression of FOXP3, Bcl2, TGF-β1 and IL-10 in cells, and upregulated the expression of caspase3, Bax, IL-17, IL-6, and IL-23. The opposite results were obtained with IVIG-treated sera. CONCLUSION miR-223-3p secreted in serum of KD patients can regulate the expression of FOXP3 and affect the proliferation, apoptosis, and inflammation of cells.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of tumor cell lysate (TCL) with low high-mobility group B1 (HMGB1) content for enhancing immune responses of dendritic cells (DCs) against lung cancer. METHODS TCLs with low HMGB1 content (LH-TCL) and normal HMGB1 content (NH-TCL) were prepared using Lewis lung cancer (LLC) cells in which HMGB1 was inhibited with 30 nmol/L glycyrrhizic acid (GA) and using LLC cells without GA treatment, respectively. Cultured mouse DCs were exposed to different doses of NH-TCL and LH-TCL, using PBS as the control. Flow cytometry was used to detect the expressions of CD11b, CD11c and CD86 and apoptosis of the stimulated DCs, and IL-12 levels in the cell cultures were detected by ELISA. Mouse spleen cells were co-cultured with the stimulated DCs, and the activation of the spleen cells was assessed by detecting CD69 expression using flow cytometry; TNF-β production in the spleen cells was detected with ELISA. The spleen cells were then co-cultured with LLC cells at the effector: target ratios of 5:1, 10:1 and 20:1 to observe the tumor cell killing. In the animal experiment, C57/BL6 mouse models bearing subcutaneous LLC xenograft received multiple injections with the stimulated DCs, and the tumor growth was observed. RESULTS The content of HMGB1 in the TCL prepared using GA-treated LLC cells was significantly reduced (P < 0.01). Compared with NH-TCL, LH-TCL showed a stronger ability to reduce apoptosis (P < 0.001) and promote activation and IL- 12 production in the DCs. Compared with those with NH-TCL stimulation, the DCs stimulated with LH-TCL more effectively induced activation of splenic lymphocytes and enhanced their anti-tumor immunity (P < 0.05). In the cell co-cultures, the spleen lymphocytes activated by LH-TCL-stimulated DCs showed significantly enhanced LLC cell killing activity (P < 0.01). In the tumor-bearing mice, injections of LH-TCL-stimulated DCs effectively activated host anti-tumor immunity and inhibited the growth of the tumor xenografts (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Stimulation of the DCs with LH-TCL enhances the anti-tumor immune activity of the DCs and improve the efficacy of DCbased immunotherapy for LLC in mice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (r/r DLBCL) have poor outcomes and few treatment options. We report the preliminary results of the efficacy and safety of PD-1 monoclonal antibody (mab) plus Rituximab for r/r DLBCL. METHODS In this single-center, single-arm phase 2 and retrospective study, r/r DLBCL patients received PD-1 mab and Rituximab every 3 weeks. Immunohistochemistry, fluorescence in situ hybridization, and probe capture-based high-resolution sequencing were performed. Efficacy, safety and prognostic factors were analyzed. RESULTS Between October 16th, 2018, and July 10th, 2022, 36 patients (10 patients in retrospective study and 26 patients in phase 2 study) were enrolled and received at least one dose of PD-1 mab combined with Rituximab. The objective response rate was 52.8%. The median progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival was 2.8 and 19.6 months, respectively. The median duration of response was 18.7 months. Rare grade 3 or 4 treatment related adverse events were observed. B2M mutations correlated with a significantly poor PFS (p = .013) and OS (p = .009) in DLBCL patients treated with this regimen. CONCLUSION PD-1 mab combined with Rituximab could be a potential treatment option for r/r DLBCL with manageable safety profile.

Abstract
Neural electrodes are core devices for research in neuroscience, neurological diseases, and neural-machine interfacing. They build a bridge between the cerebral nervous system and electronic devices. Most of the neural electrodes in use are based on rigid materials that differ significantly from biological neural tissue in flexibility and tensile properties. In this study, a liquid-metal (LM) -based 20-channel neural electrode array with a platinum metal (Pt) encapsulation material was developed by microfabrication technology. The in vitro experiments demonstrated that the electrode has stable electrical properties and excellent mechanical properties such as flexibility and bending, which allows the electrode to form conformal contact with the skull. The in vivo experiments also recorded electroencephalographic signals using the LM-based electrode from a rat under low-flow or deep anesthesia, including the auditory-evoked potentials triggered by sound stimulation. The auditory-activated cortical area was analyzed using source localization technique. These results indicate that this 20-channel LM-based neural electrode array satisfies the demands of brain signal acquisition and provides high-quality-electroencephalogram (EEG) signals that support source localization analysis.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aims to investigate the clinical and molecular differences between diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients with MYD88L265P and MYD88other. METHODS DLBCL patients with MYD88 variations were collected from the Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College (CHCAMS), and Suzhou Municipal Hospital from February 6th, 2007 to May 20th, 2022. Clinicopathological parameters and treatment outcomes between MYD88L265P and MYD88other were investigated. RESULTS A total of 132 patients with MYD88 variations from a cohort of 475 DLBCL patients were included, among which, 78 were MYD88L265P, while 54 were MYD88other. MYD88L265P was more common in non-GCB subtype than MYD88other (83% vs. 60%, P = 0.004). Besides, MYD88L265P was significantly related to higher proportion of testicle/ central nervous system involvement (31% vs. 6%, P < 0.001), PIM1 mutation (71% vs. 39%, P < 0.001), and PIM1 hypermutation (28% vs. 11%, P = 0.018), compared with MYD88other. Compared with MYD88L265P, MYD88other were more likely to have higher percentage of advanced stage (60% vs. 42%, P = 0.044), extranodal site ≥ 2 (45% vs. 28%, P = 0.044), elevated LDH (55% vs. 35%, P = 0.033), positive CD10 expression (36% vs. 16%, P = 0.009), BCL-6 translocation (20% vs. 8%, P = 0.033), and NOTCH pathway gene alteration (24% vs. 13%, P = 0.040). In non-GCB DLBCL subtype, patients with MYD88other were significantly associated with worse progression free survival (PFS) than those with MYD88L265P when treated initially with R-CHOP/R-CHOP-like regimen (P = 0.010). CONCLUSION The findings of this study indicate that DLBCL patients with MYD88L265P and MYD88other are likely to be two subgroups with different clinical and molecular characteristics. The survival of patients with MYD88other is not superior than those with MYD88L265P, even poorer when focusing on the non-GCB subtype.

Abstract
Background: Medication therapy management (MTM) services is a method that can effectively improve patients’ conditions, but the efficacy of economic and humanistic outcomes remain unclear. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to use economic, clinical and humanistic outcomes to evaluate the multi-benefits of MTM services.Method: A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted by retrieving PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library and ClinicalTrial.gov from the inception to April 2022. There were two reviewers screening the records, extracting the data, and assessing the quality of studies independently.Results: A total of 81 studies with 60,753 participants were included. MTM services were more effective in clinical outcomes with decreasing the rate of readmission (OR: 0.78; 95% CI: 0.73 to 0.83; I2 = 56%), emergency department visit (OR: 0.88; 95% CI: 0.81 to 0.96; I2 = 32%), adverse drug events (All-cause: OR: 0.68; 95% CI: 0.56 to 0.84; I2 = 61%; SAE: OR: 0.51; 95% CI: 0.33 to 0.79; I2 = 35%) and drug-related problems (MD: −1.37; 95% CI: −2.24 to −0.5; I2 = 95%), reducing the length of stay in hospital (MD: −0.74; 95% CI: −1.37 to −0.13; I2 = 70%), while the economic and humanistic outcomes were less effective.Conclusion: Our systematic review and meta-analysis demonstrated that MTM services had great ability to improve patients’ clinical conditions while the efficacy of economic and humanistic outcomes, with some of the outcomes showing high degree of heterogeneity and possible publication bias, required more future studies to provide stronger evidence.Systematic Review Registration: [https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/display_record.php?RecordID=349050], identifier [CRD42022349050].

Abstract
In order to prevent drugs from being captured and degraded by the acidic environment of organelles, such as lysosomes, after entering cells, this study designed and synthesized a novel carrier amphiphilic polypeptide (DGRHHHLLLAAAA), designated P13, for use as a tumor-targeting drug delivery vehicle. The P13 peptide was synthesized by the solid phase synthesis method, and its self-assembly behavior and drug-loading capacity in aqueous solution were studied and characterizedin vitro. Doxorubicin (DOX) was loaded by dialysis method, and P13 and DOX were mixed at a mass ratio of 6:1 to form regular rounded globules. The acid-base buffering capacity of P13 was investigated determined by acid-base titration. The results revealed that P13 had excellent acid-base buffering capacity, a critical micelle concentration value of about 0.000 21 g l-1, and the particle size of P13-Dox nanospheres was 167 nm. The drug encapsulation efficiency and drug loading capacity of micelles were 20.40 ± 1.21% and 21.25 ± 2.79%, respectively. At the concentration of 50μg ml-1of P13-DOX , the inhibition rate was 73.35%. The results of thein vivoantitumor activity assay in mice showed that P13-DOX also exhibited excellent inhibitory effect on tumor growth, compared with the tumor weight of 1.1 g in the control group, the tumor weight in the P13-DOX-treated group was only 0.26 g. Additionally, the results of hematoxylin and eosin staining of the organs showed that P13-DOX had no damaging effect on normal tissues. The novel amphiphilic peptide P13 with proton sponge effect designed and prepared in this study is expected to be a promising tumor-targeting drug carrier with excellent application potential.

Abstract
This paper proposes a method for pressure driven rapid reconfigurable liquid metal patterning. A sandwich structure of "pattern-film-cavity" is designed to complete this function. Both sides of the highly elastic polymer film are bonded with two PDMS slabs. One PDMS slab has microchannels patterned on the surface. The other PDMS slab has a large cavity on its surface for liquid metal storage. These two PDMS slabs are bonded together, face to face, with the polymer film in the middle. In order to control the distribution of the liquid metal in the microfluidic chip, the elastic film will deform under the high pressure of the working medium in the microchannels and then extrude the liquid metal into different patterns in the cavity. This paper studies the factors of liquid metal patterning in detail, including external control conditions, such as the type and pressure of the working medium and the critical dimensions of the chip structure. Moreover, both a single-pattern and a double-pattern chip are fabricated in this paper, which can form or reconfigure the liquid metal pattern within 800 ms. Based on the above methods, reconfigurable antennas of two frequencies are designed and fabricated. Meanwhile, their performance is simulated and tested by simulation and vector network tests. The operating frequencies of the two antennas are respectively significantly switching between 4.66 GHz and 9.97 GHz.

Abstract
Enriched trace elements in coal are considered to have a high environmental impact, but the extent of the influence of the enrichment level is unclear. To study the chemical speciation and environmental behavior of trace elements in coal at different enrichment levels, representative coal samples from multiple provinces in China were collected, including bituminous coal I-L2 from Inner Mongolia with high concentrations of Be, Y, Zn, Tl, U, Er, and Yb, and 72-9 coal from Anhui enriched with Cu, Cd, Pb, V, and Zn. The chemical speciation of trace elements in coal was analyzed using a variety of techniques, including X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Near Edge X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (NEXAFS), and sequential chemical extraction procedures. Cluster analysis was used for grouping the coal samples based on the enrichment coefficients of trace elements. Coal samples with similar genesis and in closer regions were more likely to be grouped. Metal carbonates and metal sulfate were observed in coals through XPS analysis. The main C species in coal were identified as phenolic C, carboxylic C, unsaturated C, and O-alkyl C/carbonyl C through NEXAFS. The amplitude variation of peaks for the fly ash was smaller than that for the feed coal, which showed that the structure of carbon became homogeneous after high-temperature combustion. It was difficult to identify the chemical speciation difference of trace elements with different enrichment degrees in coals through XPS and NEXAFS, but the results of the sequential chemical extraction could compensate. Several enriched trace elements in coal were relatively high in the chemical fractions (exchangeable, carbonates and monosulfides associated, or FeMn oxide bound) that were easy to extract and relatively low in the less insoluble chemical fractions (organic matter-bound, disulfides associated, or silicates associated), indicating that enriched trace elements in coal had higher environmental impact capacity.

Abstract
Background Rituximab combined with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin hydrochloride, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) regimen has improved the survival of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients worldwide, compared with CHOP alone. Several limitations were seen in previous studies of Chinese DLBCL patients treated with R-CHOP or R-CHOP-like regimens. This study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of Chinese DLBCL patients treated with the standard first-line treatment. Methods Clinical data were collected from DLBCL patients who received frontline R-CHOP or R-CHOP-like regimens at the Cancer Hospital Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College (CHCAMS) between January 1, 2005, and December 31, 2018. The treatment outcomes were compared with those of patients diagnosed with DLBCL between 2004 and 2017 and who received immunochemotherapy from the United States Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Survival rates were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. Multivariate analysis of progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) was performed using Cox proportional hazard regression. Results Overall, 1084 patients from the CHCAMS and 4013 patients from the SEER database were included in the study. As of April 30, 2022, the median follow-up period for the CHCAMS group was 87.3 (range: 0.5-195.4) months. For the CHCAMS group, the 5-year PFS and OS rates were 61.7% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 58.8-64.7%) and 70.6% (95% CI: 67.8-73.4%), respectively. For the SEER group, the 5-year OS rate was 66.5% (95% CI: 65.0-68.0%), which was inferior to that of the CHCAMS group (P < 0.001). After adjusting for clinical factors and treatment, no significant difference was observed in the OS between the CHCAMS and SEER groups (P = 0.867). In the CHCAMS group, multivariate analysis showed that an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score ≥2, presence of B symptoms, Ann Arbor stage III-IV, elevated serum β2-microglobulin levels, and bulky mass were independent adverse prognostic factors affecting PFS and OS (P < 0.05). Additionally, patients aged over 60 years, elevated lactate dehydrogenase levels, and more than two extranodal sites were independent adverse prognostic factors for OS (P < 0.05). Local radiotherapy was significantly associated with better PFS (P < 0.001) and OS (P = 0.001). Conclusion After adjusting for clinical and treatment-related factors, no significant difference was observed in the 5-year OS rate between Chinese DLBCL patients treated with standard first-line treatment and those from the SEER database.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Data are limited regarding the genetic profiling of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with double expression of MYC and BCL2 proteins without underlying rearrangements (double-expressor lymphoma [DEL]). This study aimed to describe the genetic profiling and determine the prognostic significance in patients with DEL and in those with non-DEL. METHODS Capture-based targeted sequencing was performed on 244 patients with de novo DLBCL, not otherwise specified. Immunohistochemistry staining was performed for evaluating the MYC and BCL2 expression. RESULTS Among 244 patients, 46 patients had DEL, and 198 had non-DEL. KMT2D, CD58, EP300, PRDM1, TNFAIP3 and BCL2 gain or amplification (BCL2GA/AMP) were significantly more frequently altered in the DEL group. Alterations in the BCR/TLR (p = 0.021), B-cell development and differentiation (p = 0.004), and NF-κB (p = 0.034) pathways occurred more frequently in patients with DEL. Thirty-seven DEL patients and 132 non-DEL patients were included for survival analyses. DEL was not significantly associated with progression-free survival (PFS) (p = 0.60) and overall survival (OS) (p = 0.49). In DEL patients, after adjusting for the International Prognostic Index, BCL2 alteration (HR 2.516, 95% CI 1.027-6.161; p = 0.044) remained an independent predictor of inferior PFS. BCL2GA/AMP also predicted poor PFS, but with marginal statistical significance (HR 2.489, 95% CI 0.995-6.224; p = 0.051). CONCLUSION There was difference in profiling of altered genes and signaling pathways between the DEL group and the non-DEL group. The presence of DEL alone should not be considered as an adverse prognostic indicator, and BCL2 alteration could define a subset of patients with poor prognosis within DEL.

Abstract
Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma, BRAF non-V600, NRAS, combination immunotherapy and targeted therapy, case report. Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is a rare type of thyroid cancer with a mortality rate near 100%. BRAF V600 and NRAS mutations are the most common drivers of ATC. While patients with BRAF V600-mutated ATC can be treated with BRAF-targeted therapy, there is no effective treatment for ATC driven by NRAS or non-V600 BRAF mutations. For patients with untargetable driver mutations, immunotherapy provides an alternative treatment option. Here, we present a metastatic ATC patient with PD-L1 positive (tumor proportion score of 60%) tumor and NRAS Q61R/BRAF D594N mutations, who progressed on PD-1 antibody sintilimab plus angiogenesis inhibitor anlotinib. The class 3 BRAF mutant D594N is sensitive to the inhibition of MEK inhibitor trametinib, and its oncogenic activity also depends on CRAF, which can be inhibited by BRAF inhibitor dabrafenib. For these reasons, the patient received a salvage treatment regime of dabrafenib, trametinib, and sintilimab, which resulted in a complete pathological response. To our best knowledge, this is the first report of successful treatment of ATC patients with concurrent NRAS/BRAF non-V600 mutations with the combination of immunotherapy and targeted therapy. Further investigation is required to decipher the mechanism by which the combination of dabrafenib/trametinib with PD-1 antibody overcomes initial immunotherapy resistance likely mediated by concurrent BRAF and NRAS mutations.

Abstract
This work proposes an "N2-1" sacrificial strategy to help to improve the accuracy of the bonding technique from the existing level. The target micropattern is copied N2 times, and (N2-1) of them are sacrificed to obtain the most accurate alignment. Meanwhile, a method for manufacturing auxiliary solid alignment lines on transparent materials is proposed to visualize auxiliary marks and facilitate the alignment. Though the principle and procedure of alignment are straightforward, the alignment accuracy substantially improved compared to the original method. With this technique, we have successfully fabricated a high-precision 3D electroosmotic micropump just using a conventional desktop aligner. Because of the high precision during the alignment, the flow velocity is up to 435.62 μm/s at a driven voltage of 40 V, which far exceeds the previous similar reports. Thus, we believe that it has great potential for high precision microfluidic device fabrications.

Abstract
Objective This multi-center, open-label, randomized, parallel-controlled phase II study aimed to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and safety profile of ripertamab (SCT400), a recombinant anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody, to rituximab (MabThera®) in patients with CD20-positive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Methods Patients with CD20-positive B-cell NHL who achieved complete remission or unconfirmed complete remission after standard treatment were randomly assigned at a 1:1 ratio to receive a single dose of ripertamab (375 mg/m2) or rituximab (MabThera®, 375 mg/m2). PK was evaluated using area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) from time 0 to d 85 (AUC0-85 d), AUC from time 0 to week 1 (AUC0-1 w), AUC from time 0 to week 2 (AUC0-2 w), AUC from time 0 to week 3 (AUC0-3 w), AUC from time 0 to week 8 (AUC0-8 w), maximum serum concentration (Cmax), terminal half-life (T1/2), time to maximum serum concentration (Tmax) and clearance (CL). Bioequivalence was confirmed if the 90% confidence interval (90% CI) of the geometric mean ratio of ripertamab/rituximab was within the pre-defined bioequivalence range of 80.0%-125.0%. PD, immunogenicity, and safety were also evaluated. Results From December 30, 2014 to November 24, 2015, a total of 84 patients were randomized (ripertamab, n=42; rituximab, n=42) and the PK analysis was performed on 76 patients (ripertamab, n=38; rituximab, n=38). The geometric mean ratios of ripertamab/rituximab for AUC0-85 d, AUC0-inf, and Cmax were 96.1% (90% CI: 87.6%-105.5%), 95.9% (90% CI: 86.5%-106.4%) and 97.4% (90% CI: 91.6%-103.6%), respectively. All PK parameters met the pre-defined bioequivalence range of 80.0%-125.0%. For PD and safety evaluation, there was no statistical difference in peripheral CD19-positive B-cell counts and CD20-positive B-cell counts at each visit, and no difference in the incidence of anti-drug antibodies was observed between the two groups. The incidences of treatment-emergent adverse events and treatment-related adverse events were also comparable between the two groups. Conclusions In this study, the PK, PD, immunogenicity, and safety profile of ripertamab (SCT400) were similar to rituximab (MabThera®) in Chinese patients with CD20-positive B-cell NHL.

Abstract
This study compared the efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of ripertamab (SCT400) and rituximab (Mabthera® ) combined with CHOP as the first-line treatment for Chinese patients with CD20-positive diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). This is a randomized, patient-blind, multicenter, active-control, non-inferiority study with parallel design. Patients were randomly (2:1) to receive ripertamab combined with CHOP (S-CHOP) or rituximab (Mabthera® ) combined with CHOP (R-CHOP) for up to 6 cycles. The primary endpoint was the Independent Review Committee (IRC) assessed objective response rate (ORR) in full analysis set (FAS) and the per protocol set (PPS). A total of 364 patients (243 in the S-CHOP and 121 in the R-CHOP groups) were enrolled in this study. In FAS, IRC-assessed ORRs were 93.8% (95% confidence interval (CI) 90.0%, 96.5%) and 94.2% (95% CI: 88.4%, 97.6%) in the S-CHOP and R-CHOP groups (p = 0.9633), respectively. The ORR difference between the two groups -0.4% (95% CI: -5.5%, 4.8%) met the pre-specified non-inferiority margin of -12%. There were no significant differences between the S-CHOP and R-CHOP groups in 1-year progression-free survival rates (81.1% vs. 83.2%, p = 0.8283), 1 year event-free survival rates (56.2% vs. 58.1%, p = 0.8005), and 3-year overall survival rates (81.0% vs. 82.8%, p = 0.7183). The results in PPS were consistent with those in FAS. The rates of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and ≥ grade 3 TEAEs were 97.9% and 99.2%, 85.2% and 86.0% in the S-CHOP and R-CHOP groups, respectively in safety set. The percentage of anti-drug antibodies positive patients in the S-CHOP group was numerically lower than the R-CHOP group (10.9% vs. 16.0%). This study demonstrated that S-CHOP was not inferior to R-CHOP in the first-line treatment of Chinese patients with CD20-positive DLBCL in efficacy, safety and immunogenecity. S-CHOP could be an alternative first-line standard treatment regimen for this patient population.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the mechanism of nerve growth factor (NGF) in the skeletal muscle fiber remodeling in ischemic limbs during therapeutic angiogenesis. Methods: Eighteen female mice with SPF grade, 6 weeks old and 25-30 g weighed were randomly allocated to sham-operated group (n=6), blank control group (n=6) and NGF gene transfection group (n=6). The left hindlimb ischemia models were established by ligating the femoral artery in blank control group and NGF gene transfection group. Seven days after the operation, mice in the three groups were separately injected with normal saline, empty plasmids, and NGF plasmids. Gastrocnemius of left hindlimbs was harvested after the blood perfusion assessment of the ischemic limb on the 21st postoperative day. The gastrocnemius muscle specimens were stained with HE, CD31 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) immunohistochemistry staining, the mRNA expressions of myosin heavy chain-Ⅰ(MHC-Ⅰ), MHC-Ⅱa and MHC-Ⅱb were measured by real-time PCR, and the protein level of NGF and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors-β/δ (PPAR β/δ) were detected by Western blot. The expression of cytochrome C oxidase (COX), isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) were examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results: On the 21st day after operation, the blood perfusion of the ischemic limb in NGF gene transfection group was (195.70±9.99)PU, which was lower than that in sham-operated group (312.15±17.32)PU (P=0.001), while it was higher than that in blank control group (82.11±8.55)PU (P=0.001). The degree of muscle atrophy in the NGF gene transfection group was lower than that in the blank control group. The capillary density of NGF gene transfection group (0.34±0.05) was higher than that of sham-operated group (0.11±0.03) and blank control group (0.27±0.04) (P<0.05). The endothelial cell proliferation index in NGF gene transfection group (0.39±0.19) was significantly higher than that in sham-operated group (0.18±0.01) and blank control group (0.25±0.14) (P<0.05). The expression of NGF, PPAR β/δ, COX, IDH, ATP, and MHC-Ⅰ mRNA in NGF gene transfection group were significantly higher than those in sham-operated group and blank control group (P<0.05). Conclusions: NGF gene transfection can promote angiogenesis in the ischemic limbs of mice, increase the blood perfusion, and thus induce the remodeling of skeletal muscle fibers to type Ⅰ. This process may be related to NGF-induced PPAR β/δ expression and promote the cellular aerobic metabolism in skeletal muscle.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the survival and prognosis of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients receiving standard first-line therapy. Methods: Data of clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of patients with HL diagnosed in Cancer Hospital Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (CHCAMS) from January 1st, 2000 to December 31st, 2018 who received standard first-line treatment were retrospectively analyzed and compared with that of HL patients who received treatment in the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database in the United States during the same period. Factors associated with freedom from progression (FFP) of patients in CHCAMS were analyzed. Treatment and survival data of patients with relapsed/refractory HL (r/rHL) who had failed the standard first-line treatment during the corresponding period in CHCAMS were collected to analyze the outcomes of salvage therapy. Results: A total of 764 HL patients in CHCAMS were included in this study. The median age was 30 years (range, 14-83 years), with 424 males and 340 females. By February 26th, 2022, the patients were followed-up for a median time of 111 months(range, 0.3-262.0 months). Lymphoma-specific survival (LSS) rate and overall survival (OS) rate at 10 years for HL patients in CHCAMS was 91.7% (95%CI: 89.5%-93.9%) and 87.1% (95%CI: 84.5%-89.8%), respectively. LSS and OS rate at 10 years for HL patients from SEER database was 86.8% (95%CI: 86.3%-87.2%) and 79.0% (95%CI: 78.5%-79.5%), respectively. The unadjusted LSS and OS rate for patients in CHCAMS were higher than those for patients from SEER database (both P<0.001). No significant difference was observed in LSS and OS rate (both P>0.05) between the two groups after adjustment. European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer staging system (early-stage unfavorable: HR=2.35, 95%CI: 1.13-4.89, P=0.023; advanced stage: HR=5.44, 95%CI: 2.62-11.30, P<0.001) and serum β2 microglobulin (HR=1.67, 95%CI: 1.08-2.58, P=0.021) were influencing factors of FFP for patients in CHCAMS. The complete remission rate, median progression-free survival (PFS), 5-year PFS rate and 5-year OS rate for the 116 patients with r/rHL was 37.9% (95%CI: 29.6%-47.0%), 15.0 months (95%CI: 9.9-20.1 months), 29.9% (95%CI: 20.9%-38.9%) and 62.9% (95%CI: 54.1%-71.7%), respectively. Conclusions: The outcomes of HL patients receiving standard first-line treatment are excellent. However, the therapeutic effect of HL patients who incurrs disease progression or relapse after standard first-line treatment is not satisfying.

Abstract
When considering the transition probability matrix of ordinal patterns, transition permutation entropy (TPE) can effectively extract fault features by quantifying the irregularity and complexity of signals. However, TPE can only characterize the complexity of the vibration signals at a single scale. Therefore, a multiscale transition permutation entropy (MTPE) technique has been proposed. However, the original multiscale method still has some inherent defects in the coarse-grained process, such as considerably shortening the length of time series at large scale, which leads to a low entropy evaluation accuracy. In order to solve these problems, a composite multiscale transition permutation entropy (CMTPE) method was proposed in order to improve the incomplete coarse-grained analysis of MTPE by avoiding the loss of some key information in the original fault signals, and to improve the performance of feature extraction, robustness to noise, and accuracy of entropy estimation. A fault diagnosis strategy based on CMTPE and an extreme learning machine (ELM) was proposed. Both simulation and experimental signals verified the advantages of the proposed CMTPE method. The results show that, compared with other comparison strategies, this strategy has better robustness, and can carry out feature recognition and bearing fault diagnosis more accurately and with improved stability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to analyze the outcomes and risk factors of early postoperative death (within 30 days after surgery) in a single-center after repair of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC). METHODS The clinical data of 88 children who had been diagnosed with TAPVC and underwent radical operation in the Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated with Shandong First Medical University (China) from January 2015 to July 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients were divided into the survival group (n = 81) and the death group (n = 7) for the analysis of preoperative and postoperative clinical data. The variables associated with early postoperative death were statistically analyzed to obtain the risk factors for early postoperative death of TAPVC. RESULTS Of the 88 patients included in this study, 7 (7.95%) patients died early, including 4 supracardiac and 3 infracardiac cases. Recurrent pulmonary vein obstruction occurred in 2 patients after discharged from hospital, and both were intracardiac TAPVC. Delayed death occurred in 2 children, both of which were intracardiac TAPVC cases. According to univariate analysis, the risk factors statistically significantly associated with the early postoperative death included infracardiac type (P = 0.08), preoperative maximum pulmonary vein flow velocity (P = 0.031), preoperative mechanical ventilation (P = 0.043), preoperative maximum pulmonary artery pressure (P = 0.000), intraoperative cardiopulmonary bypass time (P = 0.003) and intraoperative aortic cross-clamp time (P = 0.000). CONCLUSION Infracardiac type of TAPVC, preoperative maximum pulmonary vein flow velocity, preoperative mechanical ventilation, preoperative maximum pulmonary artery pressure, intraoperative cardiopulmonary bypass time and aortic cross-clamp time are the risk factors for early postoperative death.

Abstract
Drug-resistant bacterial infections pose a serious threat to human public health. Biofilm formation is one of the main factors contributing to the development of bacterial resistance, characterized by a hypoxic and microacidic microenvironment. Traditional antibiotic treatments have been ineffective against multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. Novel monotherapies have had little success. On the basis of the photothermal effect, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanoparticles were used to link quaternized polyethylenimine (QPEI), dihydroporphyrin e6 (Ce6), and Panax notoginseng saponins (PNS) in a zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8). A multifunctional nanoplatform (MQCP@ZIF-8) was constructed with dual response to pH and near-infrared light (NIR), which resulted in synergistic photothermal and photodynamic antibacterial effects. The nanoplatform exhibited a photothermal conversion efficiency of 56%. It inhibited MDR Escherichia coli (E. coli) and MDR Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) by more than 95% and effectively promoted wound healing in mice infected with MDR S. aureus. The nanoplatform induced the death of MDR bacteria by promoting biofilm ablation, disrupting bacterial cell membranes and intracellular DNA, and interfering with intracellular material and energy metabolism. In this study, a multifunctional nanoplatform with good antibacterial effect was developed. The molecular mechanisms of MDR bacteria were also elucidated for possible clinical application.
