Abstract
China was certified malaria-free by the WHO on June, 2021. Nevertheless, there are thousands of overseas imported malaria cases annually in China, and there are deaths of imported malaria cases reported every year in the country. In addition, there are secondary cases of imported malaria, and malaria vectors remain in regions where malaria were formerly endemic, resulting in a high risk of local transmission of imported malaria in eliminated regions in China. This article analyzes the risk of malaria control and the challenges of malaria surveillance and response during the post-elimination stage in China, and proposes some suggestions for future priorities.

Abstract
Abstract
For larger containments and higher operation parameters, characteristics of the outside cooling of the PCCS are very important for the analysis on the containment integrity. A preliminary analysis was made and a four-step experimental method was used to numerically analyze the falling water film evaporation for the advanced passive containment. Then, the water flow stability along the outside wall of the containment was studied. The results fit well with those correlations without airflow when the air velocity is less than 5.0 m/s. However, when the air velocity is larger than 5.0 m/s, the influence of the air velocity on the water film will appear and the mean water film thickness will be thicker. Based on the prototype operation parameters, experimental studies were carried and the results were compared with the Dittus-Boelter correlation within the operation ranges. A modification factor was proposed for the conservative application of this correlation for nuclear safety analysis.

Abstract
Lithium-sulfur batteries possess high theoretical energy density but suffer from rapid capacity fade due to the shuttling and sluggish conversion of polysulfides. Aiming at these problems, a biomimetic design of cofactor-assisted artificial enzyme catalyst, melamine (MM) crosslinked hemin on carboxylated carbon nanotubes (CNTs) (i.e., [CNTs-MM-hemin]), is presented to efficiently convert polysulfides. The MM cofactors bind with the hemin artificial enzymes and CNT conductive substrates through FeN5 coordination and/or covalent amide bonds to provide high and durable catalytic activity for polysulfide conversions, while π-π conjugations between hemin and CNTs and multiple Li-bond networks offered by MM endow the cathode with good electronic/Li+ transmission ability. This synergistic mechanism enables rapid sulfur reaction kinetics, alleviated polysulfide shuttling, and an ultralow (<1.3%) loss of hemin active sites in electrolyte, which is ≈60 times lower than those of noncovalent crosslinked samples. As a result, the Li-S battery using [CNTs-MM-hemin] cathode retains a capacity of 571 mAh g-1 after 900 cycles at 1C with an ultralow capacity decay rate of 0.046% per cycle. Even under raising sulfur loadings up to 7.5 mg cm-2 , the cathode still can steadily run 110 cycles with a capacity retention of 83%.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is one of the severe postoperative complications in elderly patients and seriously affects their prognosis and survival rate. Heretofore, there have been no reliable and accurate methods to predict postoperative SIRS in elderly patients. The aim of this study was to determine whether increased preoperative hs-CRP/albumin ratio (CAR) was associated with postoperative SIRS in elderly population. METHODS The data of patients aged ≥ 65 years who underwent general anesthesia in two centers of Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between January 2015 and September 2020 were retrieved and analyzed. Based on the perioperative dataset, we used the targeted maximum likelihood estimation (TMLE) to estimate the association between preoperative CAR and postoperative SIRS in elderly population. Patients' CAR was calculated and divided into two groups (< 0.278 and ≥ 0.278) according to its normal range in our hospital. Adjusted odd ratios (aORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated respectively. Further sensitivity analyses were conducted to evaluate the robustness of the results. RESULTS A total of 16141 elderly patients were accessed and 7009 of them were enrolled in the final analysis, and 1674 (23.9%) patients developed SIRS within 3 days after surgery. Compared with non-SIRS patients, patients with SIRS had a significantly longer postoperative hospitalization, higher cost and higher risk of in-hospital mortality. Compared with patients with preoperative CAR < 0.278, we found that CAR ≥ 0.278 had a significantly higher risk for the development of postoperative SIRS after multivariable adjustment [aOR = 1.27; 95% CI (1.21, 1.33)]. The interaction effect of preoperative CAR ≥ 0.278 and SIRS was stronger among patients with the following characteristics: aged ≥ 75 years, male, comorbid with diabetes mellitus and admitted to ICU after surgery, duration of surgery < 120 minutes, underwent cerebral surgery or skin, spine and joint surgery (all P < 0.001). The above results remained robust in the sensitivity analysis. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative CAR ≥ 0.278 was significantly associated with increased risk of postoperative SIRS in elderly patients. Special attention should be paid to elderly patients with a preoperative CAR ≥ 0.278 so as to reduce the incidence of postoperative SIRS.

Abstract
The global terrestrial carbon sink is increasing1-3, offsetting roughly a third of anthropogenic CO2 released into the atmosphere each decade1, and thus serving to slow4 the growth of atmospheric CO2. It has been suggested that a CO2-induced long-term increase in global photosynthesis, a process known as CO2 fertilization, is responsible for a large proportion of the current terrestrial carbon sink4-7. The estimated magnitude of the historic increase in photosynthesis as result of increasing atmospheric CO2 concentrations, however, differs by an order of magnitude between long-term proxies and terrestrial biosphere models7-13. Here we quantify the historic effect of CO2 on global photosynthesis by identifying an emergent constraint14-16 that combines terrestrial biosphere models with global carbon budget estimates. Our analysis suggests that CO2 fertilization increased global annual photosynthesis by 11.85 ± 1.4%, or 13.98 ± 1.63 petagrams carbon (mean ± 95% confidence interval) between 1981 and 2020. Our results help resolve conflicting estimates of the historic sensitivity of global photosynthesis to CO2, and highlight the large impact anthropogenic emissions have had on ecosystems worldwide.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify the key genes involved in the transformation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) into hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and explore the underlying molecular mechanisms. METHODS We analyzed the mRNA microarray data of 119 HBV-related HCC tissues and 252 HBV-related non-tumor tissues in GSE55092, GSE84044 and GSE121248 from the GEO database, and the "sva" R package was used to remove the batch effects. Integration analysis was performed to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in HBV-related liver cancer and liver tissues with HBV infection. The significant DEGs were functionally annotated using GO and KEGG analyses, and the most important modules and hub genes were explored with STRING analysis. Kaplan-Meier and Oncomine databases were used to verify the HCC gene expression data in the TCGA database to explore the correlations of the hub genes with the occurrence, progression and prognosis of HCC. We also examined the expressions of the hub genes in 17 pairs of surgical specimens of HCC and adjacent tissues using RT-qPCR. RESULTS We identified a total of 121 DEGs and 3 genetic markers in HCC (P < 0.01). These DEGs included cyclin1 (CDK1), cyclin B1 (CCNB1), and nuclear division cycle 80 (NDC80), which participated in cell cycle, pyrimidine metabolism and DNA replication and were highly correlated (P < 0.05). Analysis of the UALCAN database confirmed high expressions of these 3 genes in HCC tissues, which were correlated with a low survival rate of the patients, as shown by Kaplan-Meier analysis of the prognostic data from the UALCAN database. CDK1, CCNB1 and NDC80 were all correlated with the clinical grading of HCC (P < 0.05). The results of RT-qPCR on the surgical specimens verified significantly higher expressions of CDK1, CCNB1 and NDC80 mRNA in HCC tissues than in the adjacent tissues. CONCLUSION CDK1, CCNB1 and NDC80 genes can be used as prognostic markers of HBV-related HCC and may serve as potential targets in preclinical studies and clinical treatment of HCC.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the application effects of free transplantation of autologous omentum in treating maxillofacial infection complicated with complex sinus tract. Methods: The retrospective observational study method was used. Four patients with maxillofacial infection complicated with complex sinus tract were admitted to Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from July 2017 to the December 2019, including 3 males and 1 female aged 36-60 years. Preoperative facial computed tomography (CT) was performed on patients for calculating the volume of sinus tract. During the operation, the sinus tract was thoroughly debrided, and the volume of the tissue defect was about 5 cm×3 cm×2 cm-10 cm×5 cm×3 cm after debridement. The tissue defect area was filled with omentum of 100-300 mL which was cut under laparoscopy. The artery and vein on the right side of the omentum were reserved as the vascular pedicle of the donor area, which were anastomosed with the facial artery and external jugular vein of the recipient area. The survival of omentum, and the occurrences of reinfection and complication were observed after operation, respectively. On the 10th day and in 1 month after the operation, the blood supply of omentum was examined by colored Doppler ultrasound and CT angiography, and the filling of tissue defect area was examined by head and face CT. During follow-up after the operation, the recoveries of face appearance and function and scar hyperplasia in the donor area. Results: The transplanted omentums in 4 patients survived after the operation with no reinfection and complication. On the 10th day and in 1 month after the operation, the transplanted omentums had good blood supply, and the filled area with omentum was in good shape, without formation of dead cavity. During follow-up of 6-10 months after surgery, the appearance and function of face recovered well, and there was no obvious scar hyperplasia in the donor area. Conclusions: After free transplantation of omentum in treating maxillofacial infection with complex sinus tract, the patients have good facial appearance and function, and the application of laparoscopy results in little damage to the patients and quick postoperative recovery.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) inhibitors represent a major therapeutic advance in the treatment of ALK-rearranged non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Bradycardia was initially observed with crizotinib, the first ALK inhibitor. The risk of bradycardia and whether it differs among various generations of ALK inhibitors has not been systematically described.
Purpose
The primary objective of this systematic review is to compare the risk of bradycardia in patients who received an ALK inhibitor or standard chemotherapy for the treatment of NSCLC in randomized controlled trials.
Methods
We conducted a systematic literature search in MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Central, Web of Science, and Clinical Trials registry. We included randomized controlled trials that compared two different ALK inhibitors, or an ALK inhibitor with standard chemotherapies in patients with NSCLC. The primary outcome of interest was the number of bradycardia events. Because bradycardia was not systematically reported in many trials, we also documented reports of dizziness (as a potential symptom of bradycardia) in a secondary analysis.
Results
We identified 12 eligible studies including 2915 participants. Bradycardia was reported as a treatment-emergent adverse event in 9 trials; dizziness was reported in the remaining 3 trials. The type of bradycardia and use of heart rate-slowing medications were not documented in most studies. The incidence of bradycardia among 1080 individuals prescribed crizotinib in 8 trials was 13% (95% CI 9–17%) during a mean follow-up of 1.26 years. A meta-analysis of four trials that compared crizotinib with standard chemotherapies (Figure 1) showed a higher risk of bradycardia with crizotinib (RR 19.33; 95% CI 5.40–69.22). Newer generations of ALK inhibitors (alectinib, brigatinib and lorlatinib) showed similar rates of bradycardia compared to crizotinib (RR 0.51; 95% CI 0.21–1.26; Figure 2). Dizziness was more common in ALK inhibitors than standard chemotherapies (RR 1.83; 95% CI 1.38–2.42).
Conclusions
Our findings suggest that crizotinib is associated with a higher rate of bradycardia than standard chemotherapies, while no difference was found between crizotinib and newer generations of ALK inhibitors. The higher rate of dizziness in ALK inhibitors could represent a symptom of bradycardia. Further research is needed to evaluate the incidence and types of ALK inhibitor-associated bradycardia and its relationship with patient symptoms.

Abstract
Different sheep breeds have evolved after initial domestication, generating various tail phenotypic patterns. The phenotypic diversity of sheep tail patterns offers ideal materials for comparative analysis of its genetic basis. Evolutionary biologists, animal geneticists, breeders, and producers have been curious to clearly understand the underlying genetics behind phenotypic differences in sheep tails. Understanding the causal gene(s) and mutation(s) underlying these differences will help probe an evolutionary riddle, improve animal production performance, promote animal welfare, and provide lessons that help comprehend human diseases related to fat deposition (i.e., obesity). Historically, fat tails have served as an adaptive response to aridification and climate change. However, the fat tail is currently associated with compromised mating and animal locomotion, fat distribution in the animal body, increased raising costs, reduced consumer preference, and other animal welfare issues such as tail docking. The developing genomic approaches provide unprecedented opportunities to determine causal variants underlying phenotypic differences among populations. In the last decade, researchers have performed several genomic investigations to assess the genomic causality underlying phenotypic variations in sheep tails. Various genes have been suggested with the prominence of several potentially significant causatives, including the BMP2 and PDGFD genes associated with the fat tail phenotype and the TBXT gene linked with the caudal vertebrae number and tail length. Although the potential genes related to sheep tail characteristics have been revealed, the causal variant(s) and mutation(s) of these high-ranking candidate genes are still elusive and need further investigation. The review discusses the potential genes, sheds light on a knowledge gap, and provides possible investigative approaches that could help determine the specific genomic causatives of sheep tail patterns. Besides, characterizing and revealing the genetic determinism of sheep tails will help solve issues compromising sheep breeding and welfare in the future.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the recovery of structural and functional corneal sensory nerves within the LASIK flap in order to provide insight to more proximal corneal reinnervation and symptoms post-LASIK. METHODS Twenty participants underwent femtosecond LASIK with a superior flap hinge. Ocular Comfort Index in Chinese (OCI-C), Cochet-Bonnet esthesiometry, and in vivo confocal microscopy were conducted before surgery and 1 week, 1-, 3-, and 6-months post-LASIK to measure symptoms, corneal sensitivity, nerve fiber density, width, and the number of interconnections within the flap (central and mid-temporal regions), and next to the superior flap hinge. Linear mixed models were used to compare differences between corneal regions at each time point post-LASIK and changes over time post-LASIK. Spearman's correlation tests were used to examine the associations between variables post-LASIK. RESULTS The least reduction in sensitivity (P < 0.03) and in nerve fiber density (P < 0.02) was found near the flap hinge compared to other regions, but no regional differences were found in nerve fiber width and interconnections. Nerve fiber density and the number of interconnections at all regions within the flap recovered over time (P < 0.02). The recovery of corneal sensitivity and nerve fiber width was only seen at the central and temporal regions (P < 0.04). No association was found between sensitivity and nerve parameters, but a higher OCI-C score was associated with a lower nerve fiber density near the hinge (r = - 0.43, P = 0.003) over time post-LASIK. CONCLUSION Corneal sensitivity and density are preserved in the hinge, but this preservation of the corneal nerve damage does not affect the nerve morphology.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to explore the effect of micro ribonucleic acid (miR)-133b on 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion (MPP+)-induced apoptosis in the Parkinson's disease (PD) model. MATERIALS AND METHODS PC12 cells were induced by different concentrations of MPP+ to establish the PD cell model. Subsequently, the survival rate of PC12 cells was detected using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. Quantitative Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of miR-133b in the PD model induced by different concentrations of MPP+. Next, PC12 cells were transfected with miR-133b mimic and miR-negative control (NC), and divided into MPP+ group, MPP+ + miR-NC group and MPP+ + miR-133b mimic group. Transfection efficiency was verified using qRT-PCR. The apoptosis of cells was detected using terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay. Moreover, the expressions of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) and phosphorylated (p)-ERK1/2 were determined using Western blotting. RESULTS After MPP+ treatment, the survival rate of PC12 cells significantly declined (p<0.05). MPP+ exhibited toxicity against PC12 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Meanwhile, cell survival rate decreased remarkably with the increase of MPP+ concentration (p<0.05). With increased concentration of MPP+, the expression of miR-133b in the PD cell model declined significantly (p<0.05). The apoptosis of PC12 cells was remarkably inhibited by overexpression of miR-133b in the PD cell model (p<0.05). In addition, the protein expression of p-ERK1/2 in PC12 cells was notably reduced after overexpression of miR-133b in the PD cell model (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS MiR-133b is lowly expressed in the PD cell model. Furthermore, overexpression of miR-133b inhibits cell apoptosis in the PD cell model by regulating the ERK1/2 signaling pathway.

Abstract
This study aimed at identifying genomic regions and genes associated with intramuscular fat content (IMF) in Duroc pigs using a weighted single-step GWAS. Data from 3912 pigs, of which 3770 animals were genotyped with GeneSeek Porcine 50K Bead chip, were used for the association analysis. We identified 19 genomic regions that each explained >1% of the additive genetic variance associated with IMF. Notably, a consistent QTL on SSC7 (117.42-117.92 Mb) was confirmed, explaining 3.70% of the additive genetic variance, and two genes, BDKRB2 and ATG2B, were highlighted as promising candidates for IMF. Two QTL (SSC7, 94.19-94.64 Mb; SSC14, 123.25-123.75 Mb), which harbored MED6 and MAP3K9 genes and TCF7L2 gene respectively, were newly identified as associated with IMF. In conclusion, we identified a consistent QTL and additional genomic regions and genes that contributed to the genetic variance of IMF using a large-scale sample size of genotyped pigs and genealogical information.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study is aimed at analysing the endogenous metabolites profiling of patients with diabetic osteoporosis, so as to provide the reference for pathogenesis research of diabetic osteoporosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS The 1H-NMR metabolomics technology, combined with pattern recognition analysis and SIMCA-P 12.0 statistical analysis, were employed to identify the metabolites differences between diabetic patients with disordered bone metabolism (research group) and healthy volunteers (normal group) in this study. RESULTS Compared with normal group, the results show that in research group, the levels of O-acetyl glycoprotein, proline, 1-methyl histidine, tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA cycle) product (citric acid and α-ketoglutaric acid) decline, while the levels of branched chain amino acids (leucine, isoleucine, valine), glucose, choline, creatine, inositol, glutamine, aspartic acid, alanine, glycine, and citrulline increase. CONCLUSIONS There are disordered metabolic pathways and imbalanced bone synthetic materials and regulatory substances in diabetic patients with bone metabolic abnormality. These metabolic abnormalities could be the specific indicators in early diagnosis of diabetic osteoporosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Visfatin acts as an oncogenic factor in numerous tumors through a variety of cellular processes. Visfatin has been revealed to promote cell migration and invasion in gastric cancer (GC). Snai1 is a well-known regulator of EMT process in cancers. However, the relationship between visfatin and snai1 in GC remains unclear. The current study aimed to explore the role of visfatin in GC. METHODS The RT-qPCR and western blot analysis were used to measure RNA and protein levels, respectively. The cell migration and invasion were tested by Trans-well assays and western blot analysis. RESULTS Visfatin showed upregulation in GC cells. Additionally, Visfatin with increasing concentration facilitated epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process by increasing E-cadherin and reducing N-cadherin and Vimentin protein levels in GC cells. Moreover, endogenous overexpression and knockdown of visfatin promoted and inhibited migratory and invasive abilities of GC cells, respectively. Then, we found that snai1 protein level was positively regulated by visfatin in GC cells. In addition, visfatin activated the NF-κB signaling to modulate snai1 protein expression. Furthermore, the silencing of snai1 counteracted the promotive impact of visfatin on cell migration, invasion and EMT process in GC. CONCLUSION Visfatin facilitates cell migration, invasion and EMT process by targeting snai1 via the NF-κB signaling, which provides a potential insight for the treatment of GC.

Abstract
A high-performance catalyst, O-doped Sb2S3 nanosheets (SS-O NSs), is synthesized and introduced into lithium-sulfur batteries. Owing to their good conductivity, strong adsorbability/catalytic effect to polysulfides and fast Li+ diffusion, the SS-O NSs-modified cathodes can effectively mitigate the shuttle effect, thus achieving outstanding electrochemical performance.

Abstract
To overcome the shuttle effect in lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries, an sp/sp2 hybridized all-carbon interlayer by coating graphene (Gra) and hydrogen-substituted graphdiyne (HsGDY) with a specific surface area as high as 2184 m2 g-1 on a cathode is designed and prepared. The two-dimensional network and rich pore structure of HsGDY can enable the fast physical adsorption of lithium polysulfides (LiPSs). In situ Raman spectroscopy and ex situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) combined with density functional theory (DFT) computations confirm that the acetylenic bonds in HsGDY can trap the Li+ of LiPSs owing to the strong adsorption of Li+ by acetylenic active sites. The strong physical adsorption and chemical anchoring of LiPSs by the HsGDY materials promote the conversion reaction of LiPSs to further mitigate the shuttling problem. As a result, Li-S batteries integrated with the all-carbon interlayers exhibit excellent cycling stability during long-term cycling with an attenuation rate of 0.089% per cycle at 1 C over 500 cycles.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of six degree of freedom (6-DOF) bed combined with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in the on-line correction of setup errors in patients with primary rectal cancer. Methods: The clinicopathological data of 17 patients with primary rectal cancer in Department of Radiotherapy, Third Hospital of Peking University from July 2013 to January 2014 were collected. There were 14 males and 3 females, a median age of 65 years. The difference of CBCT and 6-DOF bed combined with CBCT online correction of patients with positioning error were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Before position correction, the first CBCT verification of setup errors in the three translation directions including X (left and right), Y (in and out) and Z (up and down) directions were (0.06±0.25) cm, (0.13±0.40) cm and (-0.28±0.31) cm, respectively. The setup errors of RX (rotation pitch), RY(rolling) and RZ (left and right rotation) directions were (0.62±1.15)°, (-0.19±0.99)°, and (-0.34 ± 0.84)°, respectively . After correction of IGRT combined with six freedom of bed, the setup errors of translation X, Y and Z were (0.01±0.09) cm, (-0.01±0.05) cm and (-0.03±0.08) cm, respectively, and the setup errors of rotation RX, RY and RZ directions were (-0.16±0.40)°, (0.36±0.31)°and (-0.01±0.25)°, respectively. There were significant differences in translation direction (X, Y and Z direction) and rotation direction (Rx, RY and RZ) before and after 6-DOF bed combined with CBCT correction (all P<0.05). In the translation direction, the higher frequency range of Z-direction error value was 0.20-0.79 cm. In the rotation direction, the frequency range of error in Rx direction was 0.20°-2.99°. There was no significant difference between bone mode and gray scale model registration (P>0.05). With the progress of radiotherapy, the setup errors of X, Z, Rx, RY and RZ directions increased except Y direction. Conclusions: In radiotherapy, six freedom bed combined with CBCT is helpful to correct the setup errors of patients with primary rectal cancer. Six freedom bed may be used to correct the setup errors of patients with primary rectal cancer online. Image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) is recommended for bone pattern registration in patients with rectal cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the associations between secondhand smoke exposure and dementia, Alzheimer's disease (AD) and stroke. METHODS This prospective study analyzed Framingham Offspring (FHS-OS) cohort participants with parents in the original Framingham Heart Study (FHS) cohort with known smoking status during offspring childhood. Surveillance for incident events, including dementia and stroke, among offspring participants exposed to parental smoking up to the age of 18 years commenced at examination 9 through 2014 and continued for approximately 30 years. RESULTS At baseline, a total of 1683 (56.2%) subjects were not exposed to any secondhand smoke, whereas 670 (22.4%) subjects were exposed to 0-1 packs (20 cigarettes)/day, and 640 (21.4%) were exposed to over 1 pack/day. On follow-up (median: 31 years), 2993 patients developed dementia, including 103 with AD dementia and 315 with stroke. After adjusting for a wide range of established risk factors, participants with the highest exposure to secondhand smoke exhibited increased risks of all dementia, AD dementia and stroke compared with individuals with no exposure [HR 2.86 (2.00-4.09) for dementia; HR 3.13 (1.80-5.42) for AD dementia; HR 1.89 (1.37-2.61) for stroke]. The results remained comparable in the subgroup for individuals with median exposure to secondhand smoke. CONCLUSION Exposure to secondhand smoke may be associated with increased risks of dementia, AD dementia and stroke.

The software Excel 2010 and SPSS 19.0 were applied for data cleaning and statistical analysis. Results: As of April 1, 2020, a total of 103 imported COVID-19 cases had been reported in Guangzhou, in which 92 were confirmed cases and 11 were asymptomatic infection cases. The number of the confirmed imported cases accounted for 11.4% (92/806) in of the total in China at the same time. The male to female ratio of the cases was 1.58∶1 (63∶40). The median age of the cases was 31 years (P(25)-P(75):22-40 years), range of age was 11-63 years. The main occupational distributions of the cases were business services (41/103, 39.8%) and students (36/103, 35.0%). The imported cases whose destinations were 19 provinces and municipalities rather than Guangdong after entering the country accounted for 43.7%. The main source countries of infections were the United Kingdom (27/103, 26.2%), the Philippines (13/103, 12.6%), the United States (13/103, 12.6%) and Nigeria (7/103, 6.8%). There were 34 inbound flights from which the imported COVID-19 cases were detected, in which 10 flights (10/34, 29.4%) were found to carry more than 3 cases, with an average voyage time of (11.14±0.53) hours. A total of 29 imported cases(28.2%) showed symptoms before entering the country, and 65 cases (63.1%) had been isolated before the onset of the disease. The mean free activity time of the isolated cases after the onset was (6.76±0.79) days. The average number of the imported cases' close contacts was 53. There were 13 clusters of COVID-19 caused by the imported cases, involving 36 cases (including 1 imported associated case). Conclusions: The sources of the imported COVID-19 cases in Guangzhou were widely distributed, and no cases had been found to be infected on the flights. In the early stage of the imported epidemic, there was high risk for the spread of the epidemic. Strengthened prevention and control of imported COVID-19 effectively reduced the of transmission risk of COVID-19 in communities.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
What causes us to age has been extensively explored. The receptor for AGEs (RAGE) expression is up-regulated in atherosclerotic plaques and its activation leads to oxidative stress, cytokine and adhesion molecule formation, activation of nuclear factor-κB and cell apoptosis. We hypothesized that genetic variation in the RAGE receptor may be associated with arterial stiffness.
Methods
309 untreated hypertensive subjects were tested for genotypes of –374T>A and –429T>C polymorphisms with polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). Arterial stiffness was measured as pulse wave velocity (PWV), augmentation index (AIx) and central aortic blood pressure (BP). Data was analysed using JMP Version 13 (SAS for Windows).
Results
Both polymorphisms were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The –374A A allele carriers had significantly lower aortic systolic BP (143±2 vs. 154±1, p<0.001) while –429C allele carriers had lower aortic systolic BP (151±1 vs. 157±2, p<0.01) compared with T carriers. –429C allele carriers had lower PWV compared to 429TT individuals (8.86±1 vs. 10.70±2.5). –374A allele carriers had lower PWV compared to 374TT individuals (9.7±1.43 vs. 10.65±2.6). Subjects with the AC haplotype had the lowest and those with the TT haplotype the highest PWV and aortic BP than any of the other haplotypes containing one or more of the at-risk alleles.
Conclusions
The combined effect of the two genotypes was additive with AA homozygotes of –374T>A and C allele carriers of –429T>C and the haplotype AC, associated with lowest aortic BP and arterial stiffness.

Abstract
This study showed that nodal tumour-stroma ratio (NTSR) is an independent prognostic factor for overall and disease-free survival of patients with gastric cancer. Both relative stroma-rich primary tumour-stroma ratio (PTSR) and NTSR were independent negative prognostic factors for overall survival in gastric cancer. This study supports assessment of tumour-stroma ratio in the routine pathological diagnosis of gastric cancer. validated in node-positive disease.

Abstract
AIMS To evaluate the implementation of 18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography (FDG PET-CT) surveillance after (chemo)radiotherapy, to compare outcomes for those who achieved a complete (CR), equivocal (EQR) and incomplete (ICR) nodal response on 12-week PET-CT according to their human papillomavirus (HPV) status, and to assess the safety of ongoing surveillance beyond 12 weeks in the HPV-positive EQR group. MATERIALS AND METHODS All patients with node-positive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) treated with (chemo)radiotherapy between January 2013 and September 2017 were identified. PET-CT responses were classified as CR, ICR or EQR. Patient outcomes were obtained from electronic records. RESULTS In total, 236 patients with a minimum of 2 years of follow-up were identified. The mean age was 59 years; 79.3% had N2 disease; 77.1% of patients had oropharyngeal cancer and 10.1% had squamous cell carcinoma of unknown primary, of whom 82.0% (169) were HPV positive; 78.0% received chemoradiotherapy. The median time from the end of radiotherapy to PET-CT was 91 days. Of the HPV-related HNSCC, 60.4% achieved CR, 29.0% EQR and 10.6% ICR. With a median follow-up of 41.7 months, there was no difference in survival between patients with HPV-related HNSCC achieving CR and EQR (median overall survival not reached for both, P = 0.67) despite the omission of immediate neck dissection in 98.0% of the EQR group. CONCLUSION Patients with HPV-positive HNSCC who have achieved EQR have comparable survival outcomes to those who achieved a CR despite the omission of immediate neck dissections; this shows the safety of ongoing surveillance beyond 12 weeks in this group of patients.
