Abstract
Objective: The aim of the study is to analyze the effects of vestibular spontaneous nystagmus(SN) on the smooth pursuit function of visual ocularmotor system. Methods: A total of 46 patients with acute unilateral peripheral vestibular syndrome with SN (26 cases of vestibular neuritis, 6 cases of Ramsay Hunt Syndrome (RHS) with vertigo, 14 cases of sudden deafness with vertigo) were included in this work. In the study group, the results of SPT and SN test with videonystagmography(VNG) were also reviewed. Taking SPT parameters, the influence of SN intensity on SPT gain, asymmetry and waveform and their correlation were analyzed.SPSS19.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results: Among the 46 patients, there were 36 cases of SN pointing to the healthy side(SN intensity range of 2.68°/s-32.53°/s), and 10 cases of SN pointing to the affected side (SN intensity range of 2.66°/s-16.54°/s). SN intensity was divided into 3 groups, including light(0.50°/s-5.00°/s), medium(5.01°/s-10.00°/s) and strong(>10.01°/s), accounting for 14 cases(30.4%), 18 cases(39.1%) and 14 cases(30.4%), respectively. The differences of the gain of SPT to the fast phase and slow phase direction in the overall groups and light, medium and strong groups of SN intensity respectively were statistically significant(ttotal=13.338, tlight=6.184, tmedium=8.436, tstrong=8.477, all of P<0.001). The difference of SPT gain in SN fast phase direction between groups with different SN intensity was statistically significant(F=9.639, P<0.001),there was no statistically significant difference in SPT gain between the groups on the SN slow phase direction(F=1.137, P=0.330).The SN intensity significantly negatively correlated with the SPT gain of the fast phase direction of SN (r=-0.433, P=0.003), that was, the SPT gain on the fast phase direction of SN decreased with the increase of SN intensity. There was no significant correlation between SN intensity and the gain of SPT on the slow phase direction of SN (r=-0.061, P=0.687). SPT waveform analysis showed that type I, type II and type III accounted for 8 cases(17.4%), 21 cases(45.6%) and 17 cases(37.0%), respectively. The corresponding mean values of SN intensity were (3.71±0.69)°/s, (7.44±1.88)°/s, (20.04±5.53)°/s, respectively, without type IV wave. The intensity of SN was positively correlated with the asymmetric value of the gain of SPT left and right(r=0.450,P=0.002). That was, with the increase of SN strength, the asymmetric value also increased, and the worse the asymmetry of the gain of SPT left and right pursuit was, the worse the SPT waveform was. Conclusion: SPT gain, asymmetry and SPT waveforms are all affected by SN, and the greater the intensity of SN, the greater the influence on the three. When SN is strong, type III waves may occur, suggesting that acute peripheral vestibular syndrome can also affect the visual ocularmotor systems.

Abstract
Biodegradable porous magnesium (Mg) scaffolds are promising for application in the regeneration of critical-sized bone defects. Although additive manufacturing (AM) carries the promise of offering unique opportunities to fabricate porous Mg scaffolds, current attempts to apply the AM approach to fabricating Mg scaffolds have encountered some crucial issues, such as those related to safety in operation and to the difficulties in composition control. In this paper, we present a room-temperature extrusion-based AM method for the fabrication of topologically ordered porous Mg scaffolds. It is composed of three steps, namely (i) preparing a Mg powder loaded ink with desired rheological properties, (ii) solvent-cast 3D printing (SC-3DP) of the ink to form scaffolds with 0 °/ 90 °/ 0 ° layers, and (iii) debinding and sintering to remove the binder in the ink and then get Mg powder particles bonded by applying a liquid-phase sintering strategy. A rheological analysis of the prepared inks with 54, 58 and 62 vol% Mg powder loading was performed to reveal their viscoelastic properties. Thermal-gravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), carbon/sulfur analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) indicated the possibilities of debinding and sintering at one single step for fabricating pure Mg scaffolds with high fidelity and densification. The resulting scaffolds with high porosity contained hierarchical and interconnected pores. This study, for the first time, demonstrated that the SC-3DP technique presents unprecedented possibilities to fabricate Mg-based porous scaffolds that have the potential to be used as a bone-substituting material. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Biodegradable porous magnesium scaffolds are promising for application in the regeneration of critical-sized bone defects. Although additive manufacturing (AM) carries the promise of offering unique opportunities to fabricate porous magnesium scaffolds, current attempts to apply the AM approach to fabricating magnesium scaffolds still have some crucial limitations. This study demonstrated that the solvent-cast 3D printing technique presents unprecedented possibilities to fabricate Mg-based porous scaffolds. The judicious chosen of formulated binder system allowed for the negligible binder residue after debinding and the short-time liquid-phase sintering strategy led to a great success in sintering pure magnesium scaffolds. The resulting scaffolds with hierarchical and interconnected pores have great potential to be used as a bone-substituting material.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our study aimed to investigate the expression of microRNA-216a-5p (miR-216a-5p) in breast cancer (BC) and its effect on the proliferation and metastasis of BC cells by regulating the expression of p21-activated protein kinase 2 (PAK2) gene. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 50 cases of cancer tissue specimens and corresponding para-carcinoma normal tissue specimens were collected from the breast surgery department of our hospital from July 2016 to December 2017. BC MCF-7 cell line and normal breast epithelial MCF-10A cells were cultured. MiR-NC (negative control), LV-p21-activated protein kinase 2 (PAK2) and/or miR-216a-5p mimics were synthesized and transfected. The protein and mRNA expression level in BC tissues and cells were detected by Western blot and quantitative Real Time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR) assay, respectively. Additionally, the Luciferase Reporter Assays, cell proliferation detection, clone formation assays and transwell migration and invasion assay were performed to determine the functional alteration of BC cells, respectively. RESULTS The results of qRT-PCR demonstrated that miR-216a-5p was decreased in both BC tissues and cells compared with that in normal controls. Online target gene prediction software and Dual-Luciferase reporter assay were used for target identification, and PAK2 was identified as a functional target of miR-216a-5p in BC cells. The results were further clarified with the Western blot (WB) experiment. In vitro, cell functions were detected by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), crystal violet staining and transwell experiment, respectively. The results indicated that decreased expression of PAK2 resulting from the up-regulation of miR-216a-5p could restrain the proliferation, clone formation, invasion and migration abilities of BC cells. CONCLUSIONS We showed that miR-216a-5p played a role as antioncogene in BC, which provides a new therapeutic target for the treatment of BC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A recently proposed pre-dementia syndrome, motoric cognitive risk (MCR) syndrome, is characterized by cognitive complaints and slow gait, and increases the risk of dementia and mortality. The aim of the present study was to explore the prevalence of and factors associated with MCR syndrome in elderly community-dwelling Chinese subjects. METHODS The Ningbo Community Study on Aging recruited 953 Chinese community-dwelling participants aged ≥ 65 years from November 2016 to March 2017. Handgrip, Five-Times-Sit-to-Stand (FTSS) test time and body composition, as well as comprehensive geriatric evaluation, were measured as potentially independent factors associated with MCR syndrome. RESULTS The prevalence of MCR syndrome was 12.8% in men and 12.6% in women, and high prevalence of MCR syndrome was not associated with age or sex. Multiple logistic regression analysis by sex showed that a 1-SD increase in FTSS test time in males and females was associated with 45% (95% confidence intervals, 19-76; P < 0.01) and 20% (95% confidence intervals, 9-33; P < 0.01) higher risk of having MCR syndrome, respectively, whereas handgrip strength was inversely correlated with MCR syndrome in males [odds ratio (OR), 0.91; P = 0.02] but not females (P = 0.06). Moreover, the relationship of arm fat mass and MCR syndrome was statistically significant in both sexes (OR, 1.69-1.77), but leg fat mass was only associated with MCR syndrome (OR, 1.56; P = 0.02) in men. CONCLUSIONS Handgrip, FTSS test time and body composition were associated in a sex-specific manner with MCR syndrome in elderly community-dwelling Chinese subjects. Our results on MCR syndrome are novel and should be considered as important information in future studies.

Abstract
Objective: We tested more frequency (0.01-3.0 Hz) of the sinusoidal harmonic acceleration test(SHAT) by the NKI rotation chair, aimed to analyze the results of the normal youth. Methods: Fifty normal young people were tested with sinusoidal harmonic acceleration by NKI rotation chair. Including 24 men and 26 women, aged from 20 to 40 years old, with median age of 27 years, with no vestibular dysfunction participated in the present study. All the volunteers accepted the sinusoidal harmonic acceleration test by the NKI rotation chair, the frequency included 0.01 Hz, 0.02 Hz, 0.03 Hz, 0.05 Hz, 0.1 Hz, 0.2 Hz, 0.3 Hz, 0.6 Hz, 1.0 Hz, 1.5 Hz, 2.0 Hz, 3.0 Hz. Taken the gain, phase, and asymmetry as the parameters, the trait of each frequency was analysed. Results: From 0.01 Hz to 1.5 Hz, the gain increased close to 1 gradually, and with fluctuates slightly at the 2.0 Hz and 3.0 Hz frequencies. The phase decreased as frequencies increased close to 0 at 0.3 Hz. The frequency above 0.6 Hz presented negative. Asymmetric values were distributed on both positive and negative sides at each frequency and were different from each other, both values were less than 20%. Conclusion: Broadband SHAT can accurately assess the horizontal semicircular canal function at different frequencies in a wider frequency range, and objectively, reflect the physiological function of the horizontal semicircular canal, and expand the clinical value of traditional SHAT.

Abstract
Assuming that we wish to measure the surface tension between two liquids by running a pendent drop experiment, we present calculations supporting the case for spinning the drop. For bridges, jets, etc., spinning a heavy fluid surrounded by a lighter fluid is strictly destabilizing. But we find that spinning a drop may be stabilizing and, if this is so, it leads to larger critical volumes, volumes where stability is lost, and thus more accurate measurements of surface tension. There are two observable patterns, one symmetric and the other unsymmetric, at the point of instability. The symmetric pattern leads to larger critical volumes. Our aim is to show how spinning can be used to achieve the symmetric pattern.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the effect of radiomics in the assessment of alterations in canonical cancer pathways in breast cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty-eight biopsy-proven breast cancer cases were included in the present study. Radiomics features were extracted from T1-weighted sagittal dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images. Radiomics signatures were developed to predict genetic alterations in the cell cycle, Myc, PI3K, RTK/RAS, and p53 signalling pathways by using hypothesis testing combined with least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis. The predictive powers of the models were examined by the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curve. RESULTS A total of 5,234 radiomics features were obtained from MRI images based on the tumour region of interest. Hypothesis tests screened 250, 229, 156, 785, and 319 radiomics features that were differentially displayed between cell cycle, Myc, PI3K, RTK/RAS, and p53 alterations and no alteration status. According to the LASSO algorithm, 11, 12, 12, 15, and 13 features were identified for the construction of the radiomics signatures to predict cell cycle, Myc, PI3K, RTK/RAS, and p53 alterations, with AUC values of 0.933, 0.926, 0.956, 0.940, and 0.886, respectively. The cell cycle radiomics score correlated closely with the RTK/RAS and p53 radiomics scores. These signatures were also dysregulated in patients with different oestrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 statuses. CONCLUSION MRI-based radiogenomics analysis exhibits excellent performance in predicting genetic pathways alterations, thus providing a novel approach for non-invasively obtaining genetic-level molecular characteristics of tumours.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the anti-fibrotic effects of ghrelin in isoproterenol (ISO)-induced myocardial fibrosis and the underlying mechanism. Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized to control, ISO, and ISO + ghrelin groups. ISO (2 mg/kg per day, subcutaneous) or vehicle was administered once daily for 7 days, then ghrelin (100 microg/kg per day, subcutaneous) was administered once daily for the next 3 weeks. Ghrelin treatment greatly improved the cardiac function of ISO-treated rats. Ghrelin also decreased plasma brain natriuretic peptide level and ratios of heart weight to body weight and left ventricular weight to body weight. Ghrelin significantly reduced myocardial collagen area and hydroxyproline content, accompanied by decreased mRNA levels of collagen type I and III. Furthermore, ghrelin increased plasma level of growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) and GDF15 mRNA and protein levels in heart tissues, which were significantly decreased with ISO alone. The phosphorylation of Akt at Ser473 and GSK-3beta at Ser9 was decreased with ISO, and ghrelin significantly reversed the downregulation of p-Akt and p-GSK-3beta. Mediated by GDF15, ghrelin could attenuate ISO-induced myocardial fibrosis via Akt-GSK-3beta signaling.

Abstract
Background Prognostic models are needed that reflect contemporary practice for men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). We sought to identify predictive and prognostic variables for overall survival (OS) in chemotherapy-naïve men with mCRPC treated with enzalutamide. Patients and methods Patients from the PREVAIL trial database (enzalutamide versus placebo) were randomly split 2 : 1 into training (n = 1159) and testing (n = 550) sets. Using the training set, 23 predefined variables were analyzed and a multivariable model predicting OS was developed and validated in an independent testing set. Results Patient characteristics and outcomes were well balanced between training and testing sets; median OS was 32.7 months in each. The final validated multivariable model included 11 independent prognostic variables. Median OS for low-, intermediate-, and high-risk groups (testing set) defined by prognostic risk tertiles were not yet reached (NYR) (95% CI NYR-NYR), 34.2 months (31.5-NYR), and 21.1 months (17.5-25.0), respectively. Hazard ratios (95% CI) for OS in the low- and intermediate-risk groups versus high-risk group were 0.20 (0.14-0.29) and 0.40 (0.30-0.53), respectively. Secondary outcomes of response and progression differed widely in model-defined risk groups. Enzalutamide improved outcomes in all prognostic risk groups. Conclusions Our validated prognostic model incorporates variables routinely collected in chemotherapy-naïve men with mCRPC treated with enzalutamide, identifying subsets of patients with widely differing survival outcomes that provide useful information for external validation, patient care, and clinical trial design. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01212991.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze and discuss the parameters and clinical significance of nystagmus in patients with benign positional paroxysmal vertigo (BPPV) of posterior semicircular canal. Methods: The subjects of the study were 564 BPPV patients diagnosed with posterior semicircular canal canalithis (PSC-can) from January 2016 to July 2017 in Tianjin No.1 Central Hospital, including 186 males and 378 females, with a median age of 57 years. The induced nystagmus in Dix-Hallpike test was recorded by video nystagmuo graph(VNG), and the direction, latency, duration time and intensity characteristics of nystagmus were compared with the position of hanging and sitting.SPSS17.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results: Vertical torsional nystagmus was both induced with the position of hanging and sitting during Dix-Hallpike test. The vertical direction of the induced nystagmus was upward and downward respectively. The latency, duration time and intensity of lesion side were L(2.65±1.92; 1.44±1.24), D(14.90±10.46; 15.28±8.06), and P(29.75±21.26; 14.08±9.48). The latency and intensity in hanging position were higher than those of sitting. The intensity rate was about 2∶1, with statistically significant difference (t=13.831, and 17.296, P all<0.01). The direction of the induced nystagmus was opposite to turning in HSC-Can BPPV. The intensity turning to normal side was larger than lesion side obviously. The intensity rate was about 2∶1, the difference was statistically significant (t=17.296, P<0.01). There was no statistical difference of nystagmus during time between the two positions(t=-0.735, P>0.05). Conclusions: The nystagmus intensity rate in Dix-Hallpike test between hanging and sitting position of lesion side in PSC-Can is 2∶1, which conforms to the Ewald's law. The direction, latency and intensity of nystagmus can be used as a reference index for the localization diagnosis of PSC-Canotolith.

Abstract
SummaryRenal clear cell carcinoma(RCCC) is the most common type of renal cell carcinoma, but metastasis to the nasal cavity is extremely rare. A case of RCCC to the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses was reported. The early clinical manifestations of this case were intermittent epistaxis and subsequent massive epistaxis. Imaging examination revealed that there were masses in the nasal cavity and paranasal sinus, accompanied by bleeding and destruction of the skull base. Renal CT examination showed a tumor in the right kidney, and considered the patient suffering from renal cell carcinoma. The patient underwent a nasal side incision to remove the tumor, the patient's pathological return; nasal nephrogenic clear-cell carcinoma.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the value of acoustic parameters in the voice therapy for patients with unilateral vocal cord paralysis (UVCP). Methods: From May 2015 to April 2018, 51 patients with UVCP and 59 healthy controls in Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Tianjin First Central Hospital, were involved in this research retrospectively. The UVCP patients were diagnosed with stroboscopic laryngoscopy. The minimum glottal area (MGA) was calculated by KIPS software when the people were pronouncing/i:/. The fundamental frequency (F0), Jitter, Shimmer and NHR were detected by CSL4500 multiple acoustic voice analyzer. Results: MGA of UVCP patients was much higher than that of healthy control (male: 433.68±64.52 vs. 294.41±51.82, t=9.23, P=0.000; female: 498.80±73.42 vs. 302.03±76.54, t=13.21, P=0.000), which meaned vocal cord insufficiency.After voice therapy, MGA reduced significantly (male: 288.48±55.09, female: 258.22±57.17, t=24.41 and 31.22, P=0.000 vs. pre-therapy). MGA of untreated patients decreased in varying degrees. Compared with the voice therapy group, the MGA decreased in a significantly lower extent (24.25±22.91 vs. 188.31±54.37, t=8.97, P=0.000). The F0, Jitter, Shimmer and NHR raised significantly in UVCP patients group (P=0.000 vs. healthy control group), and they were reduced by voice therapy (all P<0.05). Each of the four acoustic parameters was relative with MGA, r=0.551, 0.867, 0.853 and 0.875 in turn, P=0.001, 0.000, 0.000, and 0.000. Conclusion: MGA and acoustic parameters can reflect the acoustic features of UVCP patients, which are useful tools in the UVCP assessment and voice therapy.
