Abstract
Objective: To explore the clinical efficacy of damage control orthopaedics in treatment of patients with severe traumatic brain injury combined with limb fracture. Methods: Total 149 patients with sTBI combined with limb fracture treated in Emergency Surgery Department of Shandong University Qilu Hospital from January, 2011 to December, 2018 were collected. Patients that were treated with immediate definitive fixation before March 31st, 2013 were included into the routine treatment group (group A, 47 cases), and that were treated with damage control orthopaedics (DCO) after April 1st, 2013 were included into the DCO group (group B, 102 cases). The clinical data during hospitalization and prognosis 3 months after injury was analyzed retrospectively. Then according to the risk of postoperative ICP increase, the two groups were divided into low risk subgroup and high risk subgroup. The postoperative ICP, length of stay and GOS score were statistically analyzed. Results: There were no statistically significant differences in sex, age, preoperative GCS score, imaging type of lesion and initial intraoperative ICP between the two groups. The postoperative ICP and incidence of coagulation dysfunction were significantly higher in group A [(17.1±4.6) mmHg, 29.8%] than that in group B[(15.0±4.3) mmHg, 13.7%] separately(P<0.05), and there was no significant difference of length of stay and GOS score between the two groups (P=0.475 and 0.097, respectively). As for the subgroup with low risk of postoperative ICP increase, there was no significant difference in postoperative ICP and GOS score between group A and B, and the length of stay of group B was significantly longer than that of group A (P<0.05). As for the subgroup with high risk of postoperative ICP increase, there was no significant difference in the length of stay between group A and B (P=0.667), and for group A the postoperative ICP was higher and GOS score was lower than that of group B (P<0.05). Conclusions: For patients with sTBI combined with limb fracture, the application of DCO should be based on the severity of traumatic brain injury. For patients with high risk of postoperative ICP increase, DCO can significantly improve the prognosis of patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to explore the mechanism of micro-ribonucleic acid (miR)-214-3p in regulating fracture healing in rats with osteoporosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 30 female Sprague-Dawley rats were selected and randomly divided into 3 groups, including group A [phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), n=10], group B (AntagomiR-NC, n=10), and group C (AntagomiR-214-3p, n=10). All rats underwent ovariectomy, and the osteoporosis rat model was verified by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry 8 weeks after the operation. Then the osteoporotic fracture was established in rats via a second operation. From the successful modeling until the 6th week, 50 μL PBS (2 nmoL) was intraperitoneally injected in group A, an equal amount of AntagomiR-NC was injected in group B, and an equal amount of AntagomiR-214-3p was injected in group C once a week. At the 6th week, fracture healing of osteoporosis rats was evaluated. At the same time, the expression of miR-214-3p in the three groups was detected via reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR). Furthermore, the protein expressions of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) and Smad4 in the three groups were detected via Western blotting (WB). RESULTS After ovariectomy, the bone mineral density in each group was significantly lower than that before ovariectomy, and the differences were statistically significant (p<0.05). Imaging evaluation demonstrated that compared with group A and B, there were significantly more callus tissues in group C. Meanwhile, the fracture line healing was better and blurred, and the internal fixation had no displacement and loosening. RT-PCR results indicated that the expression level of miR-214-3p in group C was significantly lower than that of the other two groups (p<0.05). WB results showed that the protein expression levels of BMP2 and Smad4 in group C were significantly higher than those of group A and group B (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS MiR-214-3p delays fracture healing in rats with osteoporotic fracture by inhibiting the BMP/Smad signaling pathway.

Abstract
Previously, the 17-channel three-wave polarimeter-interferometer system (POLARIS) on the J-TEXT tokamak has been implemented to measure far-forward collective scattering (FFCS) from electron density fluctuations. Recently, this system has been exploited to measure the propagation direction of density fluctuation. After considering the refraction of the laser probe beam passing through plasma, the ray tracing result shows that the detector of POLARIS may receive asymmetric far-forward scattering beams. Thus, the heterodyne detection of FFCS is available to identify the propagation direction of density fluctuation by resolving the asymmetric scattering spectrum. Experimentally, the transform of the heterodyne scattering spectrum from symmetry to asymmetry has been observed, while the refraction effect becomes strong demonstrating the capacity of measuring the propagation direction of fluctuation. Furthermore, by changing the plasma potential through the use of an applied positive electrode biasing, the reverse of frequency shift for the heterodyne scattering spectrum is identified, confirming the validity of direction discrimination of density fluctuation.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate whether baseline interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10) as well as their ratio was associated with overall mortality risk over 7 years of follow-up in 11 communities of Beijing. Methods: Data from a prospective cohort study conducted between 2005 and 2012 in 11 communities of Beijing was analyzed to examine the above associations. Serum IL-6 and IL-10 were analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits. Follow-up surveys were conducted in 2007, 2010 and 2012 to collect data about participant's survival. Cox regression model was used to estimate the impact of IL-6, IL-10 and their ratio on overall mortality risk. Results: Among 1 539 eligible participants (10 263 total person-years), 77 deaths occurred in 7 years of follow-up. The rates of all-cause death were 4.86, 7.24, and 10.56 per 1 000 person-years (P=0.009) in the first, second, and third tertile of IL-6, respectively. The corresponding age-sex-adjusted hazard ratios (HR) were 1.00, 1.18 (95% CI: 0.64-2.19), and 1.80 (95% CI: 1.01-3.23) and full-adjusted HR were 1.00, 1.17 (95% CI: 0.63-2.19) and 1.87 (95% CI: 1.04-3.36). The corresponding rates of all-cause deaths were not significantly different among three tertiles of IL-10. The age-sex and full-adjusted HR were not significantly different in Cox model. The rates of all-cause death were 4.63, 8.99, and 8.93 per 1 000 person-years (P=0.043) in the first, second, and third tertile of IL-6/IL-10 ratio, respectively. The corresponding age-sex-adjusted HR were 1.00, 1.67 (95% CI: 0.91-3.06), and 1.98 (95% CI: 1.08-3.64) and full-adjusted HR were 1.00, 1.66 (95% CI: 0.90-3.06), and 2.09 (95% CI: 1.13-3.87). Conclusion: High IL-6 and IL-6/IL-10 ratio may be new risk factors to all-cause death. However, IL-10 is not significantly associated with death.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the genetic characterization of norovirus isolated in an outbreak of gastroenteritis in Jiangsu province. Methods: Extracted viral RNA from the swab samples of cases of acute gastroenteritis outbreak in Jiangsu province on December 16-27, 2016 was reversely transcribed to cDNA, and partial RNA-dependent RNA polymerase sequence and complete capsid sequence (VP1) were amplified by RT-PCR. Amplification products were sequenced for the analysis of genetic characteristics. Results: Based on sequence alignment, the variant shared a high level of identity with the strain GⅡ.g isolated in Spain and Finland (98.7%) in the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase region, and with the strain GⅡ.1 isolated in American (99.4%) in the VP1. The recombination was determined by using software Simplot, and the breakpoint of recombination was located in the ORF1/2 overlap region at position 5 106 of VP1. The result of amino acids alignment in capsid region showed that there were no mutations in the amino acids of the predicted epitopes and receptor binding site Ⅰ-Ⅲ, but a unique amino acid change was detected at position 132 (N-S). Conclusion: The norovirus isolated in the outbreak of gastroenteritis in Jiangsu province was a rare recombinant norovirus variant GⅡ.g-GⅡ.1.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is among the deadliest malignancies; however, the genetic events that lead to pancreatic carcinogenesis in adults remain unclear. In vivo models in which these genetic alterations occur in adult animals may more accurately reflect the features of human cancer. In this study, we demonstrate that inactivation of Cdkn2b (p15ink4b) is necessary for induction of pancreatic cancer by oncogenic KRASG12D expression and inactivation of Tp53 and Cdkn2a in adult mouse pancreatic ductal cells (P60 or older). KRASG12D overexpression in these cells activated transforming growth factor-β signaling and expression of CDKN2B, which, along with CDKN2A, led to cellular senescence and protected cells from KRAS-mediated transformation via inhibition of retinoblastoma phosphorylation. These results show a critical role of CDKN2B inactivation in pancreatic carcinogenesis, and provide a useful adult animal model by genetic engineering via lentiviral delivery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the characteristics and outcomes of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) in Chinese term infants population. METHODS A national neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis network was established. Neonates as having necrotizing enterocolitis with gestation age ≥37 weeks were identified if they met the accepted diagnostic criterion during the study period from Jan 1(st) 2011 to Dec 31(st) 2011. The data of maternal and neonates' characteristics, the comorbidities, the clinical interventions prior to NEC, the clinical courses and radiology results, the medical and surgical treatment and the outcomes were collected. SPSS 19.0 software was used to do statistic analysis. Logistic-regression models were used to analyze the risk factors for death in infants with NEC, odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. RESULTS There were 231 067 newborn infants, 164 307 of them were term infants, admitted to 95 hospitals in main land China. There were 718 term infants were diagnosed as necrotizing enterocolitis with the incidence of 0.44%. There were 294 term infants cases identified as ≥stage 2 necrotizing enterocolitis for the analysis, including 193 cases of stage 2 and 101 cases of stage 3.The mean gestation age was (39.0±1.3) weeks, and the mean birth weight was(3 087.4±548.3)g. The percentage of small for gestation age was 20.4%. The onset age of NEC was 5 (2-11)d. The percentage of cases received breast milk feeding was 23.7%. The most common comorbidities were sepsis (9.5%, 28/294), asphyxia (9.5%, 28/294), pneumonia (7.8%, 23/294) and congenital megacolon (7.5%, 22/294). The bowel perforation rate was 13.9%. The rate of cases who received surgical treatment was 25.2%(76.6% small intestinal necrosis and 65.8% small intestinal perforation). The mortality rate was 28.9%(the mortality rate were 20.7% and 44.6% in stage 2 and stage 3 NEC, respectively). Noninvasive continuous positive airway pressure treatment for NEC (OR=5.278, 95% CI: 2.058-13.533, P<0.01) and NEC staging 3 (OR=3.156, 95% CI: 1.766-5.642, P<0.01) were statistically significantly associated with mortality of NEC. CONCLUSIONS The term infants with necrotizing enterocolitis usually have the underlying comorbidities. The breastmilk feeding rate is low. Necrotizing enterocolitis remains high mortality in term neonates in Chinese neonatal units. Noninvasive continuous positive airway pressure treatment for NEC is statistically significantly associated with mortality of NEC.

Abstract
The multi-channel three-wave polarimeter-interferometer system on J-TEXT tokamak has been exploited to measure far-forward collective scattering from electron density fluctuations. The diagnostic utilizes far infrared lasers operated at 432 μm with 17-channel vertical chords (3 cm chord spacing), covering the entire cross section of plasma. Scattering laser power is measured using a high-sensitivity Schottky planar diode mixer which can also detect polarimetric and interferometric phase simultaneously. The system provides a line-integrated measurement of density fluctuations with maximum measurable wave number: k⊥max ≤ 2 cm-1 and time response up to 350 kHz. Feasibility of the diagnostic has been tested, showing higher sensitivity to detect fluctuation than interferometric measurement. Capability of providing spatial-resolved information of fluctuation has also been demonstrated in preliminary experimental applications.

Abstract
Multiprotein bridging factor 2 (MBF2) was first isolated from the posterior silk gland of Bombyx mori. However, its function in B. mori is still unknown. Herein, MBF2 transcripts were detected mainly in the posterior silk gland and Malpighian tubules of B. mori larvae via a quantitative PCR analysis. An analysis of temporal expression patterns showed that the expression pattern of MBF2 was the opposite of that of the fibroin heavy chain (fibH) gene, as its expression was high during the fourth-instar moulting stage, decreased gradually during the fifth-instar feeding stage and disappeared at the end of the fifth-instar phase. Furthermore, bimolecular fluorescent complementation and Far-Western blot assays showed that MBF2 interacted with the basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor Bmdimmed. Dual luciferase reporter assays showed that MBF2 down-regulated the promoter activity of fibH and inhibited the effect of Bmdimmed (Bmdimm) on fibH expression. MBF2 expression was induced in silk glands after treatment with 20-hydroxyecdysone in vivo and in vitro. These findings suggest that MBF2 is a transcriptional repressor that is involved in controlling the regulation of the fibH gene in the posterior silk gland by interacting with Bmdimm.

Abstract
Density modulation experiments have been conducted on Joint-TEXT (J-TEXT) Tokamak Ohmic discharge to investigate particle transport based on a model with constant diffusion plus inward convection. Like the HCN interferometer, the newly developed three-wave polarimeter-interferometer system (POLARIS) is used to measure the perturbed density. The comparison of results between the HCN interferometer and POLARIS is given. The consistent results indicate the validity of the analysis scheme. At lower densities, the typical particle confinement time τp is found to increase with electron density, while it saturates at higher densities.

These spectral profiles were subjected to partial least-squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), and good discriminations between cancerand non-cancer groups (chronic cervicitis and CIN) were achieved by multivariate modeling of serum profiles. The main metabolites contributing to these discriminations, as highlighted by multivariate analysis and confirmed by spectral integration, were formate, tyrosine, β-glucose, inositol, glycine, carnitine, glutamine, acetate, alanine, valine, isoleucine, and very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL). Metabolomics analysis for chronic cervicitis, CIN, and cervical cancer is significant, which give a systemic metabolic response of these female diseases. The systemic metabolic response may be used to identify the potential biomarkers for the diseases.

Abstract
Coupled shear (SH) elastic and electromagnetic (EM) waves propagating oblique to a one dimensional periodic piezoelectric and piezomagnetic composite are investigated using the transfer matrix method. Closed-form expression of the dispersion relations is derived. We find that the band structures of the periodic composite show simultaneously the features of phononic and photonic crystals. Strong interaction between the elastic and EM waves near the center of the Brillouin zone (i.e., phonon-polariton) is revealed. It is shown the elastic branch of the band structures is more sensitive to the piezoelectric effect while the phonon-polariton is more sensitive to the piezomagnetic effect of the composite.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Cysteine phytase is the main phytate-degrading enzyme of ruminant animals. To explore the genetic diversity and dynamic expression profile of cysteine phytase in sheep rumen during a feeding cycle, four transcript (0, 4, 9 and 16 h after feeding) and one DNA (9 h after feeding) clone libraries were constructed, respectively. A total of 46 distinct gene fragments were identified, and most of these sequences had low identities (<60%) with known phytases. Great divergence was found in the constitution and abundance of genes at the genome and transcriptional levels, and the transcript data are more reliable to reflect the information of functional genes. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the genes from uncultured bacteria instead of Firmicutes played the major phytate-degrading role. Further comparative analysis revealed the dynamic constitution of cysteine phytase genes in rumen at different time points. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY Ruminal phytases, that are cysteine phytases, are novel in sequences and functions. Great divergence in the constitution and abundance of cysteine phytase genes at the genome and transcriptional levels suggested that transcript data are more reliable to reflect the information of functional genes. Phylogenetic and rarefaction analyses indicated that the cysteine phytase genes from uncultured bacteria instead of Firmicutes play the major phytate-degrading role in rumen, and their constitution is dynamic at different time points. This study provides a new insight into ruminal cysteine phytase genes and undermines their expression profiles over a whole feeding cycle.
