Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the minimum duration of electroencephalography (EEG) data necessary to differentiate EEG features of Lewy body dementia (LBD), that is, dementia with Lewy bodies and Parkinson disease dementia, from non-LBD patients, that is, Alzheimer disease and Parkinson disease. METHODS We performed quantitative EEG analysis for 16 LBD and 14 non-LBD patients. After artifact removal, a fast Fourier transform was performed on 90, 60, and thirty 2-second epochs to derive dominant frequency; dominant frequency variability; and dominant frequency prevalence. RESULTS In LBD patients, there were no significant differences in EEG features derived from 90, 60, and thirty 2-second epochs (all P >0.05). There were no significant differences in EEG features derived from 3 different groups of thirty 2-second epochs (all P >0.05). When analyzing EEG features derived from ninety 2-second epochs, we found that LBD had significantly reduced dominant frequency, reduced dominant frequency variability, and reduced dominant frequency prevalence alpha compared with the non-LBD group (all P <0.05). These same differences were observed between the LBD and non-LBD groups when analyzing thirty 2-second epochs. CONCLUSIONS There were no differences in EEG features derived from 1 minute versus 3 minutes of EEG data, and both durations of EEG data equally differentiated LBD from non-LBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Exploring the directionality of neural information in the brain is important for understanding brain mechanisms and neurodisease development. Granger causality analysis and the metabolic connectivity map can be used to investigate directional transmission of information between brain regions, but their differences in depicting functional effective connectivity are not clear. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using the Monash rs-PET/MR imaging data set, we conducted Granger causality and metabolic connectivity map analyses of the dopamine reward circuit in the brain. The dopamine reward circuit is a well-known system consisting primarily of the bilateral orbital frontal cortex, caudate, nucleus accumbens, thalamus, and substantia nigra. We validated these circuit pathways using Granger causality and the metabolic connectivity map for identifying effective connectivities against a priori knowledge by testing the significance of directed pathways (P < .05, false discovery rate-corrected). RESULTS We found 3 types of effective connectivities in the dopamine reward circuit: long-range, neighborhood, and symmetric. Granger causality analysis revealed long-range connections in the orbital frontal cortex-caudate and orbital frontal cortex-nucleus accumbens regions. Metabolic connectivity map analysis revealed neighborhood connections in the nucleus accumbens-caudate, substantia nigra-thalamus, and thalamus-caudate regions. Metabolic connectivity map analysis also found symmetric connections in each of the bilateral nucleus accumbens, caudate, thalamus, and orbital frontal cortex-caudate regions. Different patterns in directional networks of the dopamine reward circuit were revealed by Granger causality and metabolic connectivity map analyses. CONCLUSIONS Granger causality analysis primarily identified bidirectional cortico-nucleus connections, while the metabolic connectivity map primarily identified direct connections among neighborhood and symmetric regions. The results of this study indicated that investigations of effective connectivities should use an appropriate analysis method depending on the purpose of the study.

Abstract
PURPOSE Abdominal hernia (AH) is one of the most common clinical diseases. A large number of observational studies have found that obesity is an important risk factor for AH. However, the causal relationship between obesity and AH cannot be determined because of the clinical studies on AH induced by obesity are relatively few and only have some small- or medium-scale observational studies. Observational studies have so many confounding factors and reverse causality due to their shortcomings. From an evidence-based medicine perspective, they are not sufficiently convincing. Therefore, there is still a lack of high-quality, evidence-based medical evidence supporting a causal relationship between obesity and AH. A causal relationship between obesity and AH is also almost impossible to confirm by randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Our study based on Mendelian randomization (MR) may provide a higher level of evidence-based medical support for the relationship between obesity and AH. Body mass index (BMI) is the most common measure used for defining obesity. Finally, we employed two-sample Mendelian randomization (TSMR) to explore the causal relationship between BMI and AH. METHODS AH-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) data were obtained from the FinnGen Biobank (FB), and BMI-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) data were obtained from the UK Biobank (UKB). Genetic loci are used as instrumental variables (IVs), methods such as inverse variance weighted (IVW) were used for two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis, and the odds ratio (OR) value was used to evaluate the causal relationship between BMI and AH. RESULTS The results of the horizontal pleiotropy test were calculated by Egger-intercept method: p = 0.34 > 0.05. The Cochran Q test of MR-Egger method and IVW method showed heterogeneity P = 0.03 < 0.05, so the IVW random effect model was used as the gold standard. We found a genetically determined 1-standard deviation (SD) increment of BMI causally increased a 66.0% risk of AH (N = 371 SNPs, OR = 1.66, 95% CI 1.46-1.89, p = 1.55E-14) based on the IVW random effect model which was almost consistent with the results of other seven methods. CONCLUSIONS Our MR found genetic evidence for BMI and AH. The risk of developing AH increases with the number of BMI. This finding provides further evidence that maintaining a healthy BMI can prevent the development of AH. In addition, clinicians may need to focus on the potential risk of AH on some high-BMI patients.

Abstract
The effect of intra-operative mechanical ventilation modes on pulmonary outcomes after thoracic surgery with one-lung ventilation has not been well established. We evaluated the impact of three common ventilation modes on postoperative pulmonary complications in patients undergoing lung resection surgery. In this two-centre randomised controlled trial, 1224 adults scheduled for lung resection surgery with one-lung ventilation were randomised to one of three groups: volume-controlled ventilation; pressure-controlled ventilation; and pressure-control with volume guaranteed ventilation. Enhanced recovery after surgery pathways and lung-protective ventilation protocols were implemented in all groups. The primary outcome was a composite of postoperative pulmonary complications within the first seven postoperative days. The outcome occurred in 270 (22%), with 87 (21%) in the volume control group, 89 (22%) in the pressure control group and 94 (23%) in the pressure-control with volume guaranteed group (p = 0.831). The secondary outcomes also did not differ across study groups. In patients undergoing lung resection surgery with one-lung ventilation, the choice of ventilation mode did not influence the risk of developing postoperative pulmonary complications. This is the first randomised controlled trial examining the effect of three ventilation modes on pulmonary outcomes in patients undergoing lung resection surgery.

Abstract
Precisely controlled development of the somatosensory system is essential for detecting pain, itch, temperature, mechanical touch and body position. To investigate the protein-level changes that occur during somatosensory development, we performed single-cell mass cytometry on dorsal root ganglia from C57/BL6 mice of both sexes, with litter replicates collected daily from embryonic day 11.5 to postnatal day 4. Measuring nearly 3 million cells, we quantified 30 molecularly distinct somatosensory glial and 41 distinct neuronal states across all timepoints. Analysis of differentiation trajectories revealed rare cells that co-express two or more Trk receptors and over-express stem cell markers, suggesting that these neurotrophic factor receptors play a role in cell fate specification. Comparison to previous RNA-based studies identified substantial differences between many protein-mRNA pairs, demonstrating the importance of protein-level measurements to identify functional cell states. Overall, this study demonstrates that mass cytometry is a high-throughput, scalable platform to rapidly phenotype somatosensory tissues.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics of children with Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and to summarize the mid-term efficacy of China Net Childhood Lymphoma-mature B-cell lymphoma 2017 (CNCL-B-NHL-2017) regimen. Methods: Clinical features of 436 BL patients who were ≤18 years old and treated with the CNCL-B-NHL-2017 regimen from May 2017 to April 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. Clinical characteristics of patients at disease onset were analyzed and the therapeutic effects of patients with different clinical stages and risk groups were compared. Survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox regression was used to identify the prognostic factors. Results: Among 436 patients, there were 368 (84.4%) males and 68 (15.6%) females, the age of disease onset was 6.0 (4.0, 9.0) years old. According to the St. Jude staging system, there were 4 patients (0.9%) with stage Ⅰ, 30 patients (6.9%) with stage Ⅱ, 217 patients (49.8%) with stage Ⅲ, and 185 patients (42.4%) with stage Ⅳ. All patients were stratified into following risk groups: group A (n=1, 0.2%), group B1 (n=46, 10.6%), group B2 (n=19, 4.4%), group C1 (n=285, 65.4%), group C2 (n=85, 19.5%). Sixty-three patients (14.4%) were treated with chemotherapy only and 373 patients (85.6%) were treated with chemotherapy combined with rituximab. Twenty-one patients (4.8%) suffered from progressive disease, 3 patients (0.7%) relapsed, and 13 patients (3.0%) died of treatment-related complications. The follow-up time of all patients was 24.0 (13.0, 35.0) months, the 2-year event free survival (EFS) rate of all patients was (90.9±1.4) %. The 2-year EFS rates of group A, B1, B2, C1 and C2 were 100.0%, 100.0%, (94.7±5.1) %, (90.7±1.7) % and (85.9±4.0) %, respectively. The 2-year EFS rates was higher in group A, B1, and B2 than those in group C1 (χ2=4.16, P=0.041) and group C2 (χ2=7.21, P=0.007). The 2-year EFS rates of the patients treated with chemotherapy alone and those treated with chemotherapy combined with rituximab were (79.3±5.1)% and (92.9±1.4)% (χ2=14.23, P<0.001) respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that stage Ⅳ (including leukemia stage), serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)>4-fold normal value, and with residual tumor in the mid-term evaluation were risk factors for poor prognosis (HR=1.38,1.23,8.52,95%CI 1.05-1.82,1.05-1.43,3.96-18.30). Conclusions: The CNCL-B-NHL-2017 regimen show significant effect in the treatment of pediatric BL. The combination of rituximab improve the efficacy further.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the effectiveness, safety and cost between urinary follicle stimulating hormone (uFSH) and recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (rFSH) in controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) in China. Methods: Data were collected from 16 reproductive centers in China covering oocytes collection time from May 1, 2015 to June 30, 2018. Eligible patients were over 18 years old, adopting COS with uFSH (uFSH group) or rFSH (rFSH group) as start gonadotropins (Gn), and using in vitro fertilization (IVF) and (or) intracytoplasmic sperm injection for fertilisation, excluding frozen embryo recovery cycle. Generalised estimating equation was used to address the violation of independency assumption between cycles due to multiple IVF cycles for one person and clustering nature of cycles carried out within one center. Controlling variables included age, body mass index, anti-Müllerian hormone level, cause of infertility, ovulation protocol, type of fertilisation, number of embryos transferred, number of days of Gn use. Results: Totally 102 061 cycles met eligibility criteria and were included in the analyses. In terms of effectiveness, after controlling relevant unbalanced baseline characteristics, compared with rFSH group, the high oocyte retrieval (>15 oocytes was considered high retrieval) rate of uFSH group significantly decreased in gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist protocol (OR=0.642, P<0.01) and in gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist protocol (OR=0.556, P=0.001), but the clinical pregnancy rate per transfer cycle and the live birth rate per transfer cycle significantly increased (OR=1.179, OR=1.169, both P<0.01) in both agonist and antagonist protocols. For safety, multiple analysis result demonstrated that in the agonist protocol, compared with rFSH group, the incidence of moderate to severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome of uFSH group significantly decreased (OR=0.644, P=0.002). The differences in ectopic pregnancy rate and multiple pregnancy rate between the uFSH and rFSH groups were not significant (P=0.890, P=0.470) in all patients. In terms of cost, compared with rFSH group, the uFSH group had lower total Gn costs for each patient (P<0.01). Conclusion: For patients who underwent COS, uFSH has better safety, and economic profiles over rFSH in China.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Does a history of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination (CoronaVac) in males influence male fertility, gamete and embryo development, and in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes?
Summary answer
CoronaVac vaccination in males may not have an adverse effect on patient’s performance or the gamete and embryonic development potential during ART treatments.
What is known already
Vaccines against COVID-19 have been approved for emergency use in several countries and regions, while concerns about the potential negative effect of vaccines on fertility contributed to vaccine hesitancy. It is urgent to explore the effect of CoronaVac on human fertility to help to overcome vaccine hesitancy about possible fertility impairment.
Study design, size, duration
A retrospective cohort study enrolled couples undergoing IVF cycles between June and August 2021 at Reproductive Medicine Centre, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. According to the history of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in males, the participants were divided into the vaccination group and the non-vaccination group.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
A self-controlled study of semen analyses for males before and after CoronaVac vaccination was conducted. Baseline characteristics were matched using propensity score matching. Participants were categorized into the unexposed group (non-vaccination) and exposed group (vaccination), and the population was 271 for each. Semen parameters and IVF outcomes were the main outcomes.
Main results and the role of chance
Generally, no statistically significant differences were exhibited between the matched cohorts regarding embryo developmental parameters, including fertilization rate, cleavage rate, high-quality embryo rate, blastocyst formation rate, and available blastocyst rate, as well as clinical outcomes, such as implantation rate, biochemical pregnancy rate, and clinical pregnancy rate. Moreover, males after vaccination seemed to have fluctuated semen parameters including increased semen volume, lower motility, and decreased normal forms of sperms, while the motile sperm counts were similar. In addition, all semen parameters were above the lower reference limits.
Limitations, reasons for caution
It was a single-center retrospective cohort study with a small sample size, and the men enrolled were suffering from infertility, which limited the generalizability of the conclusions. In addition, the endpoint of the current is a confirmation of clinical pregnancy, a study with a longer period of follow-up was urgent.
Wider implications of the findings
Our findings suggested that CoronaVac vaccinations in males may not have adverse effects on patient’s performance or the gamete and embryonic development potential during ART treatments. Larger studies among a wider population with longer follow-up in the future are required to support and validate our observations.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the prognosis factors for non-reversal of defunctioning ileostomy in rectal cancer surgery. Methods: The data of 234 patients with rectal cancer undergoing radical resection and defunctioning ileostomy in the Department of General Surgery, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2013 to June 2020 was analyzed retrospectively. There were 166 males and 68 females, aging (M(IQR)) 62(12) years (range: 33 to 89 years). Telephone following-up was conducted intensively in July 2021 to investigate whether stoma was reversed, causes of reversal failure, and tumor recurrence or metastasis after surgery. The non-reversal stoma was defined as stoma not being reversed during the follow-up period (more than 12 months). The χ2 test or Fisher's exact test was used to conduct a univariate analysis of clinical data related to reversal failure, and the factors with P<0.05 were selected into Logistic regression for multivariate analysis. Results: A total of 165 patients received stoma reversal postoperatively with an interval time of (6.5±2.4) months (range: 0.9 to 17.8 months), but 69 patients failed to closure of stoma. Univariate analysis showed that age, concomitant diseases, surgical methods, preoperative hemoglobin, preoperative carcinoembryonic antigen, tumor maximum diameter, depth of invasion, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage, anastomotic-related complications, postoperative tumor local recurrence or distant metastasis were associated with non-reversal of diverting ileostomy in rectal cancer surgery (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that age (OR=2.270, 95%CI: 1.150 to 4.479, P=0.018), open surgery (OR=7.249, 95%CI: 1.977 to 26.587, P=0.003), preoperative hemoglobin<120 g/L (OR=3.092, 95%CI: 1.566 to 6.105, P<0.01), anastomotic-related complications (OR=4.375, 95%CI: 1.686 to 11.349, P=0.002), postoperative local recurrence or distant metastasis (OR=7.065, 95%CI: 2.591 to 19.264, P<0.01) were independent prognosis factors for reversal failure of defunctioning stoma in rectal cancer surgery. Conclusions: There is a high risk of reversal failure of defunctioning ileostomy among rectal cancer patients with age>65 years, open surgery, preoperative hemoglobin<120 g/L, anastomotic-related complications, postoperative local recurrence or distant metastasis. Colorectal surgeons should fully evaluate the outcome and risk of reversal failure before making a decision of diverting ileostomy. Reducing anastomotic complications is helpful to the successful return of preventive ileostomy.

Preoperative prediction of the degree of differentiation of lung adenocarcinoma presenting as sub-solid or solid nodules with a radiomics nomogram. Clin Radiol 2022; 77:e680-e688.

Abstract
AIM To develop and validate a radiomics nomogram for prediction of degree of differentiation in lung adenocarcinoma presenting as sub-solid or solid nodules. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 438 patients with histopathologically confirmed adenocarcinoma (248 non-poorly differentiated and 190 poorly differentiated) were divided into training cohort (n=235) and internal validation cohort (n=203) according to surgery sequence. Sixty patients form public TCIA dataset were selected for external validation. One thousand, two hundred and eighteen radiomics features were extracted from each volumetric region of interest and a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator logistic regression was applied to select meaningful radiomic features for building a radiomics score (Rad-score) model. A nomogram model incorporating the Rad-score and type was established after multivariable logistic regression. The discrimination efficiency, calibration efficacy, and clinical utility value of the nomogram were evaluated. RESULTS The Rad-score model could predict the differentiation degree of lung adenocarcinoma with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.83 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.78-0.89) in the internal validation cohort. The AUC of the nomogram and radiographic model was 0.86 (95% CI: 0.80-0.91), 0.78 (95% CI: 0.72-0.84) in the internal validation cohort respectively. The AUC of the nomogram in the external validation cohort was 0.73 (95% CI: 0.58-0.88). Delong's test showed that the nomogram performed better than radiographic features alone (p=0.001). CONCLUSIONS The proposed radiomics nomogram has the potential to predict the differentiation degree of lung adenocarcinoma preoperatively.

Abstract
BackgroundThe European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR)1 recently provided updated guidelines regarding the initiation and modification of disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) therapy in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). Therefore, real-world evidence studies are warranted to provide insights into first-line DMARD utilization and durability of response in the second-line setting.ObjectivesTo analyze RA treatment patterns in real-world data and compare durability of response between second-line DMARDs + anti-TNF (TNFi) therapies vs. TNFi monotherapy.MethodsElectronic health records (EHRs) from a large health system in the Northeast US were used to identify RA patients. Lines of therapy were defined based on confirmed prescriptions for DMARDs and TNFi therapies. Time to next treatment (TTNT) was the primary outcome to estimate durability of response. Time-to-event analyses were performed using Kaplan-Meier and log-rank test methods. In addition, a Cox Proportional-Hazards (CoxPH) model was used to evaluate covariates as independent predictors of disease progression.ResultsOur study cohort consisted of 8,040 patients who had at least one line of therapy for RA. Conventional synthetic DMARDs (csDMARDs) were the predominant first line of therapy in this dataset (71.3%), followed by TNFi alone (11.1%) or TNFi combined with csDMARD (9.1%) (Figure 1).For patients who had csDMARD as their first line of therapy, 22.93% progressed to second line treatment. Among them 36.2% patients were TNFi with or without in combination with csDMARDs. In the second-line, TNFi + csDMARDs were associated with a longer TTNT (median time: 13.1 months vs 6.1 months, P < 0.005) compared to TNFi monotherapy. The multiple variable CoxPH model (adjusted for age, gender, and race) demonstrated that second-line TNFi + csDMARDs had a lower hazard rate when compared to TNFi monotherapy (HR = 0.74, 95% CI: 0.36 - 1.12, p < 0.005).ConclusionWe demonstrated the first comprehensive treatment sequencing patterns in RA from a real-world setting. As a second-line therapy for patients with inadequate response to csDMARDS, the TNFi + csDMARDs combination may improve duration of response when compared to TNFi monotherapy. Results from this study will inform future sequencing strategies to improve patient outcomes.References[1]Smolen, Josef S., Robert B. M. Landewé, Johannes W. J. Bijlsma, Gerd R.
