Abstract
Objectives: This study aims to explore the clinical significance of lateral pelvic sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) using indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence navigation in laparoscopic lateral pelvic lymph node dissection (LLND) and evaluate the accuracy and feasibility of this technique to predict the status of lateral pelvic lymph nodes (LPLNs). Methods: The clinical and pathological characteristics, surgical outcomes, lymph node findings and perioperative complications of 16 rectal cancer patients who underwent SLNB using ICG fluorescence navigation in laparoscopic LLND in the Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College during April 2017 and October 2022 were retrospectively collected and analyzed. The patients did not receive preoperative neoadjuvant radiotherapy and presented with LPLNs but without LPLN enlargement (MRI showed the maximum short axes of the LPLNs were ≥5 mm and <10 mm at first visit). Results: All 16 patients were successfully performed SLNB using ICG fluorescence navigation in laparoscopic LLND. Three patients underwent bilateral LLND and 13 patients underwent unilateral LLND. The lateral pelvic sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) were clearly fluorescent before dissection in 14 patients and the detection rate of SLNs for these patients was 87.5%. Lateral pelvic SLN metastasis was diagnosed in 2 patients and negative results were found in 12 patients by frozen pathological examinations. Among the 14 patients in whom lateral pelvic SLNs were detected, the dissected lateral pelvic non-SLNs were all negative. All dissected LPLNs were negative in two patients without fluorescent lateral pelvic SLNs. The specificity, sensitivity, negative predictive value, and accuracy was 85.7%, 100%, 100%, and 100%, respectively. Conclusions: This study indicates that lateral pelvic SLNB using ICG fluorescence navigation shows promise as a safe and feasible procedure with good accuracy. This technique may replace preventive LLND for locally advanced lower rectal cancer.

Abstract
Smoking is one of the major risk factors for several chronic non-infectious diseases, including chronic respiratory diseases, cancers, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetes, which has become a major public health issue in China. Tobacco control is proven to be the most effective and cost-effective strategy to reduce the risk of smoking-related disease and premature death. From October 2022 to September 2023, several high quality studies on tobacco medicine have been published. This review systematically summarizes the representative studies in terms of epidemiological study, clinical study, mechanism study, and tobacco control progress. These studies further highlight the concept that "tobacco smoking is the main evil for disease and tobacco control is the main good for disease prevention", which will promote the development of tobacco medicine in China.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical efficacy of intrathyroid thymic carcinoma (ITTC). Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 21 patients with ITTC diagnosed and treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2018 to July 2023, including 9 males and 12 females, with a median age of 52 years (40-60 years old). Results: There is a correlation between the maximum diameter of the tumor (≥40 mm) and lymph node metastasis (P=0.044). Seventeen patients received surgical treatment, and 4 patients only received chemotherapy. During the follow-up period, a total of 4 patients experienced death or progression, with a 2-year mortality or progression free survival rate of 74.8%. Conclusions: The prognosis of ITTC is good, and surgical treatment is the preferred treatment option, lymph node metastasis is significantly correlated with prognosis. The radiotherapy and chemotherapy of ITTC need to be determined based on the patient's condition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Excessive epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of nasal epithelial cells (NECs) play a prominent role in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) pathogenesis. Long intergenic non-coding RNA 01094 (LINC01094) was previously reported to be overexpressed in CRSwNP, while the regulatory mechanism by which LINC01094 regulates CRSwNP progression remains unclear. Our study aimed to investigate the role of LINC01094 in CRSwNP development. METHODS hNEC were isolated from tissues of controls and CRSwNP patients and stimulated with interleukin (IL)-13. 3-(4, 5-Dimethylthiazolyl2)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was employed to analyze hNEC viability. Flow cytometry was employed to analyze pyroptosis. Immunofluorescence was employed to analyze Snail nuclear translocation. The interactions between LINC01094, fused in sarcoma (FUS) and high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) were analyzed by RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) and RNA pull-down assays. RESULTS LINC01094 and EMT-related proteins were markedly upregulated in nasal polyp tissues of CRSwNP. LINC01094 knockdown inhibited IL-13-induced hNEC EMT and pyroptosis. LINC01094 promoted HMGB1 expression in CRSwNP by binding with FUS. HMGB1 promoted Snail nuclear import in GSK-B phosphorylation-dependent manner. CONCLUSION LINC01094 facilitated hNEC EMT and pyroptosis in CRSwNP by activating the HMGB1/GSK-B Snail axis, which suggested that LINC01094 might serve as a biomarker and therapeutic target in CRSwNP.

Abstract
The electronic states of poly(9,9-dioctylfluorenyl-alt-bithiophene) pF8T2 on H/Si(100) substrates, prototypical for organic photovoltaics, were investigated by ultrafast photoelectron spectroscopy and by time-resolved fluorescence studies. Occupied and unoccupied electronic states were analysed by ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS), static and dynamic femtosecond two-photon photoemission (2PPE), and time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC). Time-resolved measurements allow assessment of population lifetimes of intermediate states. The combination of time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy and fluorescence excitation allows following the electronic dynamics in excited states from the femtosecond to the nanosecond time scale. For this prototypical material the electron kinetic energy resolved lifetimes range from about a few tens of femtoseconds up to hundreds of picoseconds. After annealing these types of organic thin films the efficiency of organic solar cells usually increases. We show that annealing does not influence the initial ultrafast charge generation processes, but the long-lived states. However, the nanosecond scale fluorescence lifetimes measured by TCSPC are prolonged after annealing, which therefore is identified as the cause of a greater exciton diffusion range and thus is beneficial for charge carrier extraction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of the central government-funded echinococcosis control programme in Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County, Gansu Province from 2007 to 2022, so as to provide insights into echinococcosis control. METHODS Administrative villages were sampled using a multi-stage cluster random sampling method from Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County, Gansu Province from 2007 to 2022, and all residents at ages of 12 years and older in the sampled villages were screened for echinococcosis, and schools were sampled using a cluster sampling method, and all children at ages of 12 years and older in the sampled schools were screened for echinococcosis. Domestic dogs were sampled using a systematic random sampling method, and one domestic dog stool sample was collected from each household. Stray dog stool samples were collected outside the villages, and Echinococcus coproantigens were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in domestic and stray dogs. In addition, echinococcosis was screened in sheep and cattle in designated slaughterhouses in Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County. The trends in the prevalence of echinococcosis in humans and livestock and the positive rate of Echinococcus coproantigens in dogs were examined with the Cochran-Armitage trend test. In addition, individuals screened for echinococcosis were randomly sampled from 2007 to 2022 for survey on the awareness of echinococcosis control knowledge. RESULTS A total of 290 356 person-times were screened for echinococcosis among residents at ages of 12 years and older in Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County, Gansu Province from 2007 to 2022, with 1 094 residents detected with cystic echinococcosis, and the detection of echinococcosis appeared a tendency towards a gradual decline over years (χ2 = 358.602, P < 0.001). A total of 32 931 person-times were screened for echinococcosis among children at ages of 12 years and older in Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County, Gansu Province from 2007 to 2022, with 296 children detected with echinococcosis, and the detection of echinococcosis appeared a tendency towards a gradual decline over years (χ2 = 267.673, P < 0.001). A total of 33 230 domestic dog stool samples were tested for Echinococcus coproantigens in Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County, Gansu Province from 2007 to 2022, with 1 777 Echinococcus coproantigens-positive samples tested, and the positive rate of Echinococcus coproantigens appeared a tendency towards a decline in domestic dogs over years (χ2 = 2 210.428, P < 0.001), while the positive rate of Echinococcus coproantigens showed a tendency towards a rise in domestic animals from 2016 to 2022 (χ2 = 37.745, P < 0.001). The positive rate of Echinococcus coproantigens remained relatively stable in stray dogs in Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County, Gansu Province from 2019 to 2022 (χ2 = 0.315, P = 0.575). A total of 10 973 sheep were screened for echinococcosis in Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County from 2007 to 2022, with 334 sheep detected with echinococcosis, and the detection of echinococcosis appeared a tendency towards a decline in sheep over years (χ2 = 53.579, P < 0.001); however, there was no significant change in the detection of echinococcosis during the period from 2015 through 2022 (χ2 = 1.520, P = 0.218). A total of 2 400 cattle were screened for echinococcosis in Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County from 2017 to 2022, with 231 cattle detected with echinococcosis, and the detection of echinococcosis showed a tendency towards a decline over years (χ2 = 5.579, P < 0.05). The awareness of echinococcosis control knowledge increased from 44.37% in 2007 to 94.00% in 2022 among residents at ages of 12 years and older and from 52.50% in 2007 to 92.50% in 2022 among children at ages of 12 years and older in Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County, respectively. CONCLUSIONS There has been a reduction in the detection of echinococcosis in humans and domestic animals and the positive rate of Echinococcus coproantigens in dogs and a rise in the awareness of the echinococcosis control knowledge following the implementation of the central government-funded echinococcosis control programme in Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County, Gansu Province; however, integrated echinococcosis control measures are still required for further control of the prevalence of echinococcosis.

Abstract
We combine synchrotron-based infrared absorption and Raman scattering spectroscopies with diamond anvil cell techniques and first-principles calculations to explore the properties of hafnia under compression. We find that pressure drives HfO[Formula: see text]:7%Y from the mixed monoclinic ([Formula: see text]) [Formula: see text] antipolar orthorhombic ([Formula: see text]) phase to pure antipolar orthorhombic ([Formula: see text]) phase at approximately 6.3 GPa. This transformation is irreversible, meaning that upon release, the material is kinetically trapped in the [Formula: see text] metastable state at 300 K. Compression also drives polar orthorhombic ([Formula: see text]) hafnia into the tetragonal ([Formula: see text]) phase, although the latter is not metastable upon release. These results are unified by an analysis of the energy landscape. The fact that pressure allows us to stabilize targeted metastable structures with less Y stabilizer is important to preserving the flat phonon band physics of pure HfO[Formula: see text].

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the concern about pollen broadcasting in Chinese population from multiple dimensions and to understand the information about allergic rhinitis (AR) in China by analyzing related factors. Methods: From March 1 to September 30, 2022, a large-scale multi-center cross-sectional survey was conducted based on the Questionnaire Star platform in 21 Chinese hospitals. A total of 7 056 subjects from 7 regions in China: Northeast, North, East, Central, South, Southwest, and Northwest China were included. Basic characteristics (including social demographic characteristics and disease characteristics of AR patients), concern about pollen broadcasting, the willingness of pollen-induced AR (PiAR) patients to receive pollen broadcasting, and the treatment satisfaction rate of AR patients were collected. The chi-square test, multivariate linear regression model, and Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the concern about pollen broadcasting in the Chinese population and related factors from multiple dimensions. Results: Among 7 056 subjects, 23.02% were concerned about pollen broadcasting. Among 3 176 self-reported AR and 1 019 PiAR patients, 25.60% and 39.16% were concerned about pollen broadcasting, respectively, which was higher than that of non-AR or non-PiAR subjects (χ2 value was 21.74 and 175.11, respectively, both P<0.001). Among AR patients, the proportion of spring and autumn allergen-positive patients concerned about pollen broadcasting was higher than that in perennial allergen-positive patients (χ2 value was 20.90 and 19.51, respectively, both P<0.001). The proportion of AR patients with asthma, sinusitis, allergic conjunctivitis, and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases was higher than those without complications (χ2 value was 50.83, 21.97, 56.78, 7.62, respectively, all P<0.05). The proportion of AR patients in North China who could find pollen broadcasting locally was 31.01%, significantly higher than those in other regions (all P<0.05). Multivariate linear regression model analysis showed that among PiAR patients, those with higher per capita household income and higher AR disease cognition levels had been concerned about pollen broadcasting in the past, and those complicated with allergic conjunctivitis had stronger intention to receive pollen broadcasting (B value was 0.24, 0.13, 0.66, 0.47, respectively, all P<0.05). The higher the disease cognition level of PiAR patients, the stronger their willingness to actively participate in treatment (R2=0.72, P<0.001). Only 18.89% of AR patients felt satisfied with the treatment effect. Logistic regression analysis showed that in AR patients, the treatment satisfaction rate was significantly higher among those concerned about pollen broadcasting compared to those who were not (OR=1.83, P<0.001). Conclusions: Currently, the dissemination of pollen broadcasting in China is hindered by various factors such as disease cognition level. The treatment satisfaction among AR patients remains unsatisfactory.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the correlations between cosmetic and radiographic parameters of shoulder balance, as well as the variations in cosmetic shoulder balance observed from different perspectives, among patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) characterized by thoracic curves. Methods: A total of 43 patients with thoracic curves treated from July to October in 2022 in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital were recruited in this study. There were 9 males and 34 females with a mean age of (14.3±1.5) years. All participants underwent comprehensive radiographic assessments and were photographed both from posterior and anterior views, focusing on the shoulder region as well as a higher level (maintaining a consistent vertical distance of 180 cm from the ground). Six cosmetic parameters were measured on the photographs: shoulder angle(α1), axilla angle(α2), shoulder area index 1(SAI1), shoulder area index 2 (SAI2), inner shoulder height (SHi) and outer shoulder height (SHo). Eight radiographic parameters were measured on the radiographs: radiographic shoulder height difference (RSHD), first rib angle (FRA), clavicle-rib cage intersection (CRCI), coracoid process height (CPH), T1 tilt, clavicle angle(CA), clavicle chest cage angle difference (CCAD) and Cobb angle. Differences among bilateral cosmetic indicators from different perspectives were analyzed and compared, and their correlation with bilateral radiographic indicators was studied. Results: There was no significant differences between anterior cosmetic parameters and posterior cosmetic parameters at the same level of observation(all P>0.05). However, when observing SHi, SHo, α1, and α2 at the shoulder level, it became evident that they exhibited significantly higher values compared to the corresponding higher level on the same side of the patients' bodies. This contrast was observed in both the dorsal [SHo: (0.11±1.20) cm vs (-0.44±1.39) cm, P=0.005; SHi: (0.64±0.86) cm vs (0.32±0.56) cm, P=0.003; α1:-0.47°±2.27° vs -0.77°±2.49°, P=0.014; α2:-3.06°±3.23° vs -2.21°±3.03°, P=0.034] and ventral [SHo: (0.12±1.29) cm vs (-0.48±1.35) cm, P=0.007; SHi: (0.61±0.88) cm vs (0.30±0.59) cm, P=0.006; α1:-0.46°±2.18° vs -0.69°±2.35°, P=0.018; α2:-3.26°±3.12° vs -2.05°±2.97°, P=0.029] aspects of the patients. SHi and SHo were more sensitive to this difference of height. The correlation coefficients between radiographic parameters and cosmetic aspects at the shoulder level varied from 0.374 to 0.767. Similarly, the correlation coefficients between radiographic parameters and cosmetic factors at the higher level ranged from 0.273 to 0.579 (all P<0.05). Conclusions: The cosmetic parameters had significant difference between different perspective of observation, the cosmetic parameters are needed to be observed at the shoulder level in the evaluation of patients' shoulder balance.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the indications and surgical outcome of Cobb+1 to Cobb fusion strategy in Lenke 5C adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients with the lower lumbar apex. Methods: The clinical data of Lenke 5C AIS patients treated in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from August 2015 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were followed-up for at least 2 years after surgery and treated with selective Cobb+1 to Cobb fusion strategy. The patients were divided into the normal lumbar apex group (apex location of the main curve was between T12 and L1) and the lower lumbar apex group (apex location of the main curve was below the disc of L1/L2). The occurrence of proximal decompensation in the two groups was compared. In addition, according to whether the patients had proximal decompensation at the last follow-up, the patients in the lower lumbar apex group were further divided into proximal decompensation group and non-decompensation group. The radiographic parameters and Scoliosis Research Society-22 (SRS-22) scores of the two groups were compared. Results: A total of 52 patients (19 cases in the normal lumbar apex group and 33 cases in the lower lumbar apex group), aged (15.3±1.6) years, were followed up for 2-5 (3.2±1.2) years. Six patients (6/19) in the normal lumbar apex group and 5 cases (15.2%) in the lower lumbar apex group showed proximal decompensation during follow-up, and the incidence was significantly higher in the normal lumbar apex group (P=0.034). Within the lower lumbar apex group, the patients with proximal decompensation (n=5) showed similar Risser grade, baseline thoracic Cobb angle, and main Cobb angle as those without proximal decompensation(n=28), and the differences were all not statistically significant (all P>0.05). However, the baseline thoracic/lumbar apical vertebra translation (AVT) ratio was significantly larger in patients with proximal decompensation (0.6±0.2 vs 0.4±0.2, P=0.042), but the postoperative upper instrumented vertebra (UIV) tilt angle was similar (4.5°±2.3° vs 6.2°±3.4°, P=0.312). Conclusion: Cobb+1 to Cobb fusion strategy, selecting UIV at 1 level above upper end vertebra (UEV), could be performed in Lenke 5C patients with the lower lumbar apex location. In addition, UIV could be selected at UEV+1 in patients with small baseline thoracic curve.

Anaesthesia 2024; 79:71-85. [PMID: 37948131 DOI: 10.1111/anae.16172] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 10/03/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023]
Abstract
We conducted a systematic review of the literature reporting phenylephrine-induced changes in blood pressure, cardiac output, cerebral blood flow and cerebral tissue oxygen saturation as measured by near-infrared spectroscopy in humans. We used the proportion change of the group mean values reported by the original studies in our analysis. Phenylephrine elevates blood pressure whilst concurrently inducing a reduction in cardiac output. Furthermore, despite increasing cerebral blood flow, it decreases cerebral tissue oxygen saturation. The extent of phenylephrine's influence on cardiac output (r = -0.54 and p = 0.09 in awake humans; r = -0.55 and p = 0.007 in anaesthetised humans), cerebral blood flow (r = 0.65 and p = 0.002 in awake humans; r = 0.80 and p = 0.003 in anaesthetised humans) and cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (r = -0.72 and p = 0.03 in awake humans; r = -0.24 and p = 0.48 in anaesthetised humans) appears closely linked to the magnitude of phenylephrine-induced blood pressure changes. When comparing the effects of phenylephrine in awake and anaesthetised humans, we found no evidence of a significant difference in cardiac output, cerebral blood flow or cerebral tissue oxygen saturation. There was also no evidence of a significant difference in effect on systemic and cerebral circulations whether phenylephrine was given by bolus or infusion. We explore the underlying mechanisms driving the phenylephrine-induced cardiac output reduction, cerebral blood flow increase and cerebral tissue oxygen saturation decrease. Individualised treatment approaches, close monitoring and consideration of potential risks and benefits remain vital to the safe and effective use of phenylephrine in acute care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the value of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiomics nomograms for predicting the hormone receptor (HR) status of HER2-positive breast cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with HER2-positive invasive breast cancer were divided randomly into training (68 patients) and validation (30 patients) sets. All were classified as either HR-positive (HR+) or negative (HR-) at histopathology. Two radiologists outlined the three-dimensional (3D) volumetric regions of interest (VOI) on the MRI images. Features (n=1,096) were extracted from the T2-weighted imaging (WI), apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), and dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) images separately. Dimensionality was reduced using feature screening. Binary radiomics prediction models were established using a logistic regression classifier and were validated in the validation set. To construct a nomogram, independent predictors were identified using multivariate logistic regression analysis. The predictive efficacy of the model was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). RESULTS Ten radiomics features were obtained after feature dimensionality reduction based on the merged T2WI, ADC, and DCE images. The diagnostic efficacy of the radiomics signature using the three sequences was better than that of any single sequence (training set AUC: 0.797; validation set AUC: 0.75). Using multivariate logistic regression analysis, the independent predictors for identifying HR status were combined radiomics signature and peritumoural oedema. Nomograms constructed by combining the radiomics signature and peritumoural oedema showed good discrimination in both the training and validation sets (AUC: 0.815 and 0. 805, respectively). CONCLUSION A multiparametric MRI-based nomogram incorporating the radiomics signature and peritumoural oedema can assess the HR status of HER2-positive breast cancer. The resulting model can improve diagnostic accuracy, improving patient outcomes.

Abstract
The single-step genomic model has become the golden standard for routine evaluation in livestock species, such as Holstein dairy cattle. The single-step genomic model with direct estimation of marker effects has been proven to be efficient in accurately accounting for millions of genotype records. For diverse applications including frequent genomic evaluation updates on a weekly basis, estimates of the marker effects from the single-step evaluations play a central role in genomic prediction. In this study we focused on exploring the marker effect estimates from the single-step evaluation. Phenotypic, genotypic, and pedigree data were taken from the official evaluation for German dairy breeds in April 2021. A multilactation random regression test-day model was applied to more than 242 million test-day records separately for 4 traits: milk, fat, and protein yields, and somatic cell scores (SCS). Approximately one million genotyped Holstein animals were considered in the single-step genomic evaluations including ∼21 million animals in pedigree. Deregressed multiple across-country breeding values of Holstein bulls having daughters outside Germany were integrated into the national test-day data to increase the reliability of genomic breeding values. To assess the stability and bias of the marker effects of the single-step model, test-day records of the last 4 yr were deleted, and the integrated bulls born in the last 4 yr were truncated from the complete phenotypic dataset. Estimates of the marker effects were shown to be highly correlated, with correlations ∼0.9, between the full and truncated evaluations. Regression slope values of the marker-effect estimates from the full on the truncated evaluations were all close to their expected value, being ∼1.03. Calculated using random regression coefficients of the marker effect estimates, drastically different shapes of the genetic lactation curve were seen for 2 markers on chromosome 14 for the 4 test-day traits. The contribution of individual chromosomes to the total additive genetic variances seemed to follow the polygenic inheritance mode for protein yield and SCS. However, chromosome 14 was found to make an exceptionally large contribution to the total additive genetic variance for milk and fat yields because of markers near the major gene DGAT1. For the first lactation test-day traits, we obtained ∼0 correlations of chromosomal direct genomic values between any pair of the chromosomes; no spurious correlations were found in our analysis, thanks to the large reference population. For trait milk yield, chromosomal direct genomic values appeared to have a large variation in the between-lactation correlations among the chromosomes, especially between first and second or third lactations. The optimal features of the random regression test-day model and the single-step marker model allowed us to track the differences in the shapes of genetic lactation curves down to the individual markers. Furthermore, the single-step random regression test-day model enabled us to better understand the inheritance mode of the yield traits and SCS (e.g., variable chromosomal contributions to the total additive genetic variance and to the genetic correlations between lactations).

Med Oral Patol Oral Cir Bucal 2024; 29:e27-e35. [PMID: 37992149 PMCID: PMC10765336 DOI: 10.4317/medoral.26044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2023] [Accepted: 08/24/2023] [Indexed: 11/24/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between the impacted mandibular third molar (IMTM) and the external root resorption (ERR) of the mandibular second molar (MSM) was analysed with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). The risk factors affecting the ERR of the MSM were examined to provide a reference. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 327 patients (total: 578 teeth) admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Yanbian University for IMTM extraction from January 2017 to December 2019 was chosen and divided according to gender and age. The correlation between the IMTM and ERR of MSM was analysed, including inclination angle, impaction direction and depth. The relationship of mandibular ascending ramus classification with ERR of MSM was also analysed. In addition, the correlation between the MTM impaction type and the severity of ERR was analysed. RESULTS The incidence of ERR of MSM in male patients was higher than in females (27.9% vs.17.6%, p = 0.018). The occurrence and the site of ERR showed statistical differences in the inclination angle [(≤20°, 3.6%) vs. (21°-40°, 27.1%) vs. (41°-60°, 27.6%) vs. (61°-80°, 25.6%) vs. (>80°, 31.7%), p <0.001], impaction direction [(Vertical, 1.1%) vs. (Mesial, 32.7%) vs. (Horizontal, 25.3%), p <0.001] and depth of MTM [(Low position, 38.6%) vs. (Median position, 32.0%) vs. (High position, 13.7%), p <0.001]. Also, there was a significant difference in the mandibular ascending ramus type [(Class I, 17.4%) vs. (Class II, 32.3%) vs. (Class III, 44.9%), p <0.001]. In addition, the severity of ERR showed statistical differences in the mesial (40.9%, p<0.05), lower impaction (54.5%, p<0.05) depth of MTM and type III of mandibular ascending ramus (63.6%, p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The inclination angle, impaction direction, and depth of MTM were the influencing factors for the occurrence and site of ERR. Also, mandibular ascending ramus type was the impact fact. For MTM with mesioangular, lower impaction, and mandibular ascending ramus with type III, the ERR of the MSM was severer.

Impact of primary kidney disease on the effects of empagliflozin in patients with chronic kidney disease: secondary analyses of the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol 2024; 12:51-60. [PMID: 38061372 DOI: 10.1016/s2213-8587(23)00322-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Sporotrichosis, a fungal infection caused by Sporothrix species, can greatly lead to chronic inflammation of the skin, mucosa, and lymphatic vessels and disseminate systemically sometimes, even threatening life. It is known that Sporothrix is distributed worldwide, while in China, most of the cases were reported in northeast China and parts of south China. Sporothrix globosa is the main source of infection, and other regions may lack relevant awareness and attention to the disease, making it a public health challenge in China. Thus, it is important to understand its epidemiology and public health risks to prevent and control the disease properly.

Abstract
Seasonal influenza leads to a significant disease burden, and older people infected with influenza are susceptible to various complications. Influenza immunization can prevent infection effectively and significantly reduce the risk of complications and severe cases. Creating a supportive environment for vaccination is crucial in advancing the influenza vaccination rate among the elderly population. In China, the present environment for supporting influenza vaccinations among the elderly is primarily comprised of policies for free vaccination and expense reimbursement, which exhibit noteworthy regional variations across cities and regions. This study systematically analyses the supportive environment and regional disparities associated with influenza vaccination among the elderly in China. It aims to comprehend the opportunities for influenza prevention and control resulting from the current background of influenza vaccination and to identify potential health inequality challenges caused by regional differences. The findings should inform the introduction of relevant national policies and programs to protect the health and well-being of the elderly population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment regimens for recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M HNSCC) after failure of platinum-based chemotherapy have been illustrated with limited efficacy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Here, we report a single-arm, multicenter, phase Ⅱ study of R/M HNSCC patients treated with a programmed cell death-1 antibody penpulimab (200 mg) and anlotinib (12 mg) after failing at least one line of platinum-based chemotherapy. RESULTS Of 38 patients in total, 13 (34.21%) patients achieved partial response and 16 (42.11%) patients achieved stable disease. After a median follow-up of 7.06 months (range: 4.14-15.70 months), the independent review committee-assessed objective response rate was 34.21%, the disease control rate was 76.32%. The median progression-free survival was 8.35 months (95% confidence interval 5.95-13.11 months). Twelve patients died and the median overall survival (OS) was not reached. The 12-month OS rate was 59.76%. Grade 3/4 treatment-related adverse events occurred in 47.37% of the patients. CONCLUSION Penpulimab combined with anlotinib demonstrated promising efficacy and manageable safety in R/M HNSCC patients after failure of platinum-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
The polarization of Λ and Λ[over ¯] hyperons along the beam direction has been measured relative to the second and third harmonic event planes in isobar Ru+Ru and Zr+Zr collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV. This is the first experimental evidence of the hyperon polarization by the triangular flow originating from the initial density fluctuations. The amplitudes of the sine modulation for the second and third harmonic results are comparable in magnitude, increase from central to peripheral collisions, and show a mild p_{T} dependence. The azimuthal angle dependence of the polarization follows the vorticity pattern expected due to elliptic and triangular anisotropic flow, and qualitatively disagrees with most hydrodynamic model calculations based on thermal vorticity and shear induced contributions. The model results based on one of existing implementations of the shear contribution lead to a correct azimuthal angle dependence, but predict centrality and p_{T} dependence that still disagree with experimental measurements. Thus, our results provide stringent constraints on the thermal vorticity and shear-induced contributions to hyperon polarization. Comparison to previous measurements at RHIC and the LHC for the second-order harmonic results shows little dependence on the collision system size and collision energy.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the value of radiomics models based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps in distinguishing benign and malignant thyroid nodules. Methods: A cross-sectional study. Clinical data of 148 thyroid nodules (50 benign, 98 malignant) from 140 patients who underwent thyroid MRI examination in Cancer Hospital & Shenzhen Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences between January 2019 and December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The nodules were used as the study units, and a leave-one-out method was used to randomly divide the nodules into a training set and a test set at a 7∶3 ratio. Region of interest was segmented and radiomics features were extracted from the DWI and ADC images. In the training set, feature selection was performed using inter-observer agreement analysis, U-test, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator algorithm, and correlation analysis. Four classifiers, including support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), k-nearest neighbors (KNN) and logistic regression (LR) were used to build models with the selected features, including the DWI models, ADC models, and combined models. The models were independently tested in the test set. The performance of the radiomics models in distinguishing benign and malignant thyroid nodules was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, with pathological results as the gold standard. Results: Of the 140 patients, there were 40 males and 100 females, with a mean age of (38.4±12.2) years. After feature selection, 11 DWI features and 11 ADC features were used to build the models. In the training set, the AUC values of the combined models were higher than those of the corresponding DWI and ADC models. In the test set, the SVM combined model showed the best predictive performance, with an AUC of 0.873 (95%CI:0.740-0.954), accuracy of 75.6%, sensitivity of 46.7%, specificity of 90.0%, positive predictive value (PPV) of 70.0% and negative predictive value (NPV) of 77.1%, while the RF combined model had an AUC of 0.836 (95%CI:0.695-0.929), accuracy of 77.8%, sensitivity of 40.0%, specificity of 96.7%, PPV of 85.7% and NPV of 76.3%, the KNN combined model had an AUC of 0.832 (95%CI:0.691-0.927), accuracy of 77.8%, sensitivity of 33.3%, specificity of 100%, PPV of 100% and NPV of 75.0%, the LR combined model had an AUC of 0.813 (95%CI:0.669-0.914), accuracy of 77.8%, sensitivity of 60.0%, specificity of 86.7%, PPV of 69.2% and NPV of 81.3%. Conclusions: Radiomics models based on DWI and ADC image features can effectively distinguish benign and malignant thyroid nodules. The SVM combined model had the best prediction performance.
