Abstract
BACKGROUND Our primary objective was to assess the association between joint exposure to various air pollutants and the risk of ischemic stroke (IS) and the modification of the genetic susceptibility. METHODS This observational cohort study included 307 304 British participants from the United Kingdom Biobank, who were stroke-free and possessed comprehensive baseline data on genetics, air pollutant exposure, alcohol consumption, and dietary habits. All participants were initially enrolled between 2006 and 2010 and were followed up until 2022. An air pollution score was calculated to assess joint exposure to 5 ambient air pollutants, namely particulate matter with diameters equal to or <2.5 µm, ranging from 2.5 to 10 µm, equal to or <10 µm, as well as nitrogen oxide and nitrogen dioxide. To evaluate individual genetic risk, a polygenic risk score for IS was calculated for each participant. We adjusted for demographic, social, economic, and health covariates. Cox regression models were utilized to estimate the associations between air pollution exposure, polygenic risk score, and the incidence of IS. RESULTS Over a median follow-up duration of 13.67 years, a total of 2476 initial IS events were detected. The hazard ratios (95% CI) of IS for per 10 µg/m3 increase in particulate matter with diameters equal to or <2.5 µm, ranging from 2.5 to 10 µm, equal to or <10 µm, nitrogen dioxide, and nitrogen oxide were 1.73 (1.33-2.14), 1.24 (0.88-1.70), 1.13 (0.89-1.33), 1.03 (0.98-1.08), and 1.04 (1.02-1.07), respectively. Furthermore, individuals in the highest quintile of the air pollution score exhibited a 29% to 66% higher risk of IS compared with those in the lowest quintile. Notably, participants with both high polygenic risk score and air pollution score had a 131% (95% CI, 85%-189%) greater risk of IS than participants with low polygenic risk score and air pollution score. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggested that prolonged joint exposure to air pollutants may contribute to an increased risk of IS, particularly among individuals with elevated genetic susceptibility to IS.

Abstract
By analyzing 7.33 fb^{-1} of e^{+}e^{-} annihilation data collected at center-of-mass energies between 4.128 and 4.226 GeV with the BESIII detector, we report the observation of the semileptonic decay D_{s}^{+}→η^{'}μ^{+}ν_{μ}, with a statistical significance larger than 10σ, and the measurements of the D_{s}^{+}→ημ^{+}ν_{μ} and D_{s}^{+}→η^{'}μ^{+}ν_{μ} decay dynamics for the first time. The branching fractions of D_{s}^{+}→ημ^{+}ν_{μ} and D_{s}^{+}→η^{'}μ^{+}ν_{μ} are determined to be (2.235±0.051_{stat}±0.052_{syst})% and (0.801±0.055_{stat}±0.028_{syst})%, respectively, with precision improved by factors of 6.0 and 6.6 compared to the previous best measurements. Combined with the results for the decays D_{s}^{+}→ηe^{+}ν_{e} and D_{s}^{+}→η^{'}e^{+}ν_{e}, the ratios of the decay widths are examined both inclusively and in several ℓ^{+}ν_{ℓ} four-momentum transfer ranges. No evidence for lepton flavor universality violation is found within the current statistics. The products of the hadronic form factors f_{+,0}^{η^{(')}}(0) and the c→s Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element |V_{cs}| are determined. The results based on the two-parameter series expansion are f_{+,0}^{η}(0)|V_{cs}|=0.452±0.010_{stat}±0.007_{syst} and f_{+,0}^{η^{'}}(0)|V_{cs}|=0.504±0.037_{stat}±0.012_{syst}, which help to constrain present models on f_{+,0}^{η^{(')}}(0). The forward-backward asymmetries are determined to be ⟨A_{FB}^{η}⟩=-0.059±0.031_{stat}±0.005_{syst} and ⟨A_{FB}^{η^{'}}⟩=-0.064±0.079_{stat}±0.006_{syst} for the first time, which are consistent with the theoretical calculation.

Abstract
"Nine Steaming Nine Sun-Drying" Polygonti rhizome has been used as valuable tonic health-care products for thousands of years. This research aimed to determine the correlations between the structure and anti-diabetic activities of three novel polysaccharides isolated from the raw and "Nine Steaming Nine Sun-Drying" Polygonti rhizome, with PRP-R from the raw ones and PRP-9Z and PRP-9A from the steamed ones. Structures of the isolated polysaccharides were determined by IR and NMR spectra, as well as monosaccharide composition and methylation analysis. In vitro assays indicated that PRP-9Z could improve the glucose consumptions more effectively than PRP-R and PRP-9A via Akt/GSK3β insulin signal pathway by western blotting analysis. In vivo assays indicated PRP-9Z could improve the glucose tolerance in the BKS-db mice. Histopathological assay demonstrated that PRP-9Z effectively reduced the damage of the kidney and liver. The above results indicated that PRP-9Z from "Nine Steaming Nine Sun-Drying" Polygonti rhizome showed significant anti-diabetic properties, which indicated that PRP-9Z with higher content of →1)-β-Frup-(2→ was more active than PRP-R with higher →1,6)-β-Fruf-(2→ and PRP-9A with higher →4)-β-Galp(1→.

Abstract
Seed dormancy is an important life history state in which intact viable seeds delay or prevent germination under suitable conditions. Ascorbic acid (AsA) acts as a small molecule antioxidant, and breaking seed dormancy and promoting subsequent growth are among its numerous functions. In this study, a germination test using Pyrus betulifolia seeds treated with exogenous AsA or AsA synthesis inhibitor lycorine (Lyc) and water absorption was conducted. The results indicated that AsA released dormancy and increased germination and 20 mmol L-1 AsA promoted cell division, whereas Lyc reduced germination. Seed germination showed typical three phases of water absorption; and seeds at five key time points were sampled for transcriptome analysis. It revealed that multiple pathways were involved in breaking dormancy and promoting germination through transcriptome data, and 12 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) related to the metabolism and signal transduction of abscisic acid (ABA) and gibberellins (GA) were verified by subsequent RT-qPCR. For metabolites, exogenous AsA increased endogenous AsA and GA3 but reduced ABA and the ABA/GA3 ratio. In addition, three genes regulating ABA synthesis were downregulated by AsA, while five genes mediating ABA degradation were upregulated. Taken together, AsA regulates the pathways associated with ABA and GA synthesis, catalysis, and signal transduction, with subsequent reduction in ABA and increase in GA and further the balance of ABA/GA, ultimately releasing dormancy and promoting germination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelet activation and thrombus formation play critical roles in the pathogenesis of myocardial infarction (MI). In addition to their role in energy production, platelet mitochondria also regulate cellular functions related to apoptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammation. Epigenetic modifications of platelet mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) may influence platelet function and are believed to be an important factor in MI. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the differences in platelet mtDNA methylation levels between MI patients and controls. METHODS The present study utilized propensity score matching to generate 45 multivariate matched apparently healthy controls for 45 patients with newly-onset acute MI. Platelet mtDNA methylation levels were assessed through bisulfite-PCR pyrosequencing and compared between the two groups, with further adjustments made in the sensitivity analysis. RESULTS Among the measured mitochondrial genes (MT-COX1, MT-COX2, MT-COX3, MT-ND5, MT-ATP6 and tRNA_Leu), patients with MI exhibited statistically significant differences in mtDNA methylation levels as compared to matched controls. Specifically, higher levels of mtDNA methylation were observed in MT-COX1, MT-COX3, and tRNA_Leu, while a lower level was observed in MT-ATP6 (all p < 0.0001). These results remained robust in the sensitivity analysis. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated significant variations in platelet mtDNA methylation levels between patients with MI and controls. Platelet mtDNA methylation may serve as a novel biomarker for MI. This observation also provided some insights into the etiology of MI.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an incurable interstitial lung disease characterized by fibrosis. Two FDA-approved drugs, pirfenidone and nintedanib, only modestly prolong survival. In this study, we asked whether levels of select circulating biomarkers in patients with IPF demonstrated changes in response to treatment over time and whether treatment with pirfenidone and nintedanib led to differential biomarker expression. Serial plasma samples from 48 patients with IPF on usual treatment and six healthy volunteers were analyzed to identify differentially expressed blood protein. Hypothesis-driven potential biomarker selection was based on recent literature, internal preclinical data, and the PROLIFIC Consortium (Schafer P. 6th Annual IPF Summit. Boston, MA, 2022) proposed biomarkers of pulmonary fibrosis. We compared our findings to public databases to provide insights into relevant signaling pathways in IPF. Of the 26 proteins measured, we found that 11 (SP-D, TIMP1, MMP7, CYFRA21-1, YKL40, CA125, sICAM, IP-10, MDC, CXCL13) were significantly elevated in patients with IPF compared with healthy volunteers but their levels did not significantly change over time. In the IPF samples, seven proteins were elevated in the treatment group compared with the no-treatment group. However, protein profiles were not distinguishable between patients on pirfenidone versus nintedanib. We demonstrated that most proteins differentially detected in our samples were predicted to be secreted from the lung epithelial or interstitial compartments. However, a significant minority of the proteins are not known to be transcriptionally expressed by lung cells, suggesting an ongoing systemic response. Understanding the contributions of the systemic response in IPF may be important as new therapeutics are developed.NEW & NOTEWORTHY In this study, we confirmed protein expression differences in only a subset of predicted biomarkers from IPF and control subjects. Most differentially expressed proteins were predicted to be secreted from lung cells. However, a significant minority of the proteins are not known to be transcriptionally expressed by lung cells, suggesting an ongoing systemic response. The contributions of the systemic response in IPF may be important as new therapeutics are developed.

Abstract
Persistent luminescence (PersL) materials exhibit thermal-favored optical behavior, enabling their unique applications in security night vision signage, in vivo bioimaging, and optical anti-counterfeiting. Therefore, developing efficient and color-tunable PersL materials is significantly crucial in promoting advanced practical use. In this study, hexagonal Zr4+ -doped CsCdCl3 perovskite is synthesized via a hydrothermal reaction with a tunable photoluminescent (PL) behavior through heterovalent substitution. Moreover, the incorporation of Zr4+ ions result in an extra blue emission band, originating from the enhanced excitonic recombination in D3d octahedrons. Furthermore, the afterglow performances of the samples are dramatically improved, along with the noticeable temperature-dependent PersL as well as the thermo-luminescence with tunable color output. Detailed analysis reveals that the unique temperature-dependent PersL and thermo-luminescence color change are attributed to the presence of multiple luminous centers and abundant traps. Overall, this work facilitates the development of optical intelligence platforms and novel thermal distribution probes with the as-developed halides perovskite for its superior explored PersL characteristic.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the role of amylose and amylopectin in the formation of starch-polyphenol complex and elucidate the interaction mechanisms. Gallic acid (GA) was used to complex with maize starch with various amylose contents. Results showed GA formed V-type crystals with normal maize starch (NMS) and high amylose maize starch (HAMS), while higher relative crystallinity was exhibited in HAMS-GA complexes than NMS counterparts. Molecular structure analysis revealed more amylose in GA-starch complexes than in treated starch counterparts without GA, and this was more apparent in HAMS than NMS, implying amylose is preferred to complex with GA than amylopectin. FTIR detected higher R1047/1022 value in starch-GA complexes than their starch counterparts without GA, suggesting increased short-range ordered structrure of complexes. Typical signatures of hydrophobic interactions were further revealed by isothermal titration calorimetry, indicating the complexation of GA to starch is mainly through hydrophobic bonds. More binding sites were observed for HAMS (72.50) than NMS (11.33), which proves the preferences of amylose to bind with GA. Molecular dynamics simulated the complexation of GA to amylose, and confirmed hydrophobic bond is the main interaction force. These findings would provide guidance for precise design and utilization of starch-polyphenol complexes in functional foods.

Abstract
One new phenolic cyclobutantetraol ester united chromone glycoside (1), one new amide (2), and three new phenyl ethanol glycosides (3-5) were obtained from the water extract of Scindapsus officinalis (Roxb.) Schott, in which compound 1 was the first reported structure incorporating the phenolic cyclobutantetraol ester and chromone via the glucose phenolic metabolites in nature. Structures of the isolated compounds, including absolute configurations, were elucidated according to the analysis of HRESIMS, NMR, ECD and BLYP/6-31G* geometry optimization calculations of 13C NMR data. All isolates (1-5) were evaluated for the antidiabetic activity by the insulin resistance (IR) model and anti-inflammatory activity against NO production in vitro. Compounds 1-3 showed strong antidiabetic activities, greatly promoting the glucose consumption in the insulin resistance HepG2 cells compared with the model group, however, 1-5 showed weak anti-inflammatory activities.

Abstract
Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) is a pivotal enzyme that mediates the fixation of CO2. As the most abundant protein on earth, Rubisco has a significant impact on global carbon, water, and nitrogen cycles. However, the significantly low carboxylation activity and competing oxygenase activity of Rubisco greatly impede high carbon fixation efficiency. This review first summarizes the current efforts in directly or indirectly modifying plant Rubisco, which has been challenging due to its high conservation and limitations in chloroplast transformation techniques. However, recent advancements in understanding Rubisco biogenesis with the assistance of chaperones have enabled successful heterologous expression of all Rubisco forms, including plant Rubisco, in microorganisms. This breakthrough facilitates the acquisition and evaluation of modified proteins, streamlining the measurement of their activity. Moreover, the establishment of a screening system in E. coli opens up possibilities for obtaining high-performance mutant enzymes through directed evolution. Finally, this review emphasizes the utilization of Rubisco in microorganisms, not only expanding their carbon-fixing capabilities but also holding significant potential for enhancing biotransformation processes.

Abstract
The preparation and characterization of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys with varying chemical compositions are helpful for rapid screening of the optimal compositions in the research and development of new materials. The traditional testing methods cannot accurately determine the composition gradient in samples because they have a low spatial resolution or are semi-quantitative and time-consuming. The micro X-ray fluorescence (μ-XRF) methodology has been used for the elemental imaging of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys with varying chemical compositions. The experimental conditions, including testing voltages, testing currents and the dwell time for each pixel, were optimized systematically to improve the repeatability and accuracy of the μ-XRF methodology. The quantitative elemental imaging of an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy rod sample using μ-XRF was performed, and the results were validated by conducting spark optical emission spectroscopy. The limits of detection of μ-XRF for Zn, Mg, and Cu were 0.007 wt%, 0.068 wt%, and 0.002 wt%, respectively. This versatile elemental imaging technique provided an effective means for the component analysis and process evaluation of alloy samples with a composition gradient and thus for research and development of new materials.

Abstract
Despite the successes of immunotherapy in cancer treatment over recent decades, less than <10%-20% cancer cases have demonstrated durable responses from immune checkpoint blockade. To enhance the efficacy of immunotherapies, combination therapies suppressing multiple immune evasion mechanisms are increasingly contemplated. To better understand immune cell surveillance and diverse immune evasion responses in tumor tissues, we comprehensively characterized the immune landscape of more than 1,000 tumors across ten different cancers using CPTAC pan-cancer proteogenomic data. We identified seven distinct immune subtypes based on integrative learning of cell type compositions and pathway activities. We then thoroughly categorized unique genomic, epigenetic, transcriptomic, and proteomic changes associated with each subtype. Further leveraging the deep phosphoproteomic data, we studied kinase activities in different immune subtypes, which revealed potential subtype-specific therapeutic targets. Insights from this work will facilitate the development of future immunotherapy strategies and enhance precision targeting with existing agents.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is an inherited cardiomyopathy characterized by progressive fibrofatty infiltration of atrial and ventricular myocardium resulting in adverse cardiac events. Atrial function has been increasingly recognized as prognostically important for cardiovascular disease. As the right atrial (RA) strain is a sensitive parameter to describe RA function, we aimed to analyze the prognostic value of the RA strain in ARVC. METHODS RA strain parameters were derived from cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images of 105 participants with definite ARVC. The endpoint was defined as a combination of sudden cardiac death, survival cardiac arrest, and appropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator intervention. Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier survival analyses were performed to evaluate the association between RA strain parameters and endpoint. Concordance index (C index), net reclassification index (NRI), and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) were calculated to assess the incremental value of RA strain in predicting the endpoint. RESULTS After a median follow-up of 5 years, 36 (34.3%) reaching the endpoint displayed significantly reduced RA strain parameters. At Kaplan-Meier analysis, impaired RA reservoir (RARS) and booster strains (RABS) were associated with an increased risk of the endpoint. After adjusting for conventional risk factors, RARS (hazard ratio [HR], 0.956; p = 0.005) and RABS (HR, 0.906; p = 0.002) resulted as independent predictors for endpoint at Cox regression analyses. In addition, RARS and RABS improved prognostic value to clinical risk factors and CMR morphological and functional predictors (all p < 0.05). CONCLUSION RARS and RABS were independent predictors for adverse cardiac events, which could provide incremental prognostic value for conventional predictors in ARVC. CRITICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT We evaluated the prognostic value of right atrial strain in ARVC patients and suggested cardiologists consider RA strain as a predictive parameter when evaluating the long-term outcome of ARVC patients in order to formulate better clinical therapy. KEY POINTS • Patients with ARVC had significantly reduced RA strain and strain rates compared with healthy participants. • Participants with lower RA reservoir and booster stains were associated with a significantly higher risk of adverse cardiac events. • RA booster and reservoir strain provide incremental value to conventional parameters.

Abstract
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are an important part of non-specific immunity and play a key role in the cellular host defense against pathogens and tissue injury infections. We investigated the effects of AMP supplementation on the antioxidant capacity, non-specific immunity, and gut microbiota of tsinling lenok trout. 240 fish were fed diets (CT, A120, A240 and A480) containing different amounts of AMP peptides (0, 120 mg kg-1, 240 mg kg-1, 480 mg kg-1) for 8 weeks. Our results showed that the activity of total antioxidant capacity (T-SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), lysozyme (LZM), catalase (CAT) and acid phosphatase (ACP) in the A240 and A480 group were higher than that in the CT group (P < 0.05). The content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in AMP group was significantly lower than that in CT group (P < 0.05). Furthermore, we harvested the mid-gut and applied next-generation sequencing of 16S rDNA. The results showed that the abundance of Halomonas in AMP group was significantly lower than that in CT group. Functional analysis showed that the abundance of chloroalkane and chloroalkene degradation pathway increased significantly in AMP group. In conclusion, AMP enhanced the antioxidant capacity, non-specific immunity, and intestinal health of tsinling lenok trout.

Abstract
Background Atherosclerosis (AS) is a multifaceted disease characterized by disruptions in lipid metabolism, vascular inflammation, and the involvement of diverse cellular constituents. Recent investigations have progressively underscored the role of microRNA (miR) dysregulation in cardiovascular diseases, notably AS. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitors (PCSK9i) can effectively reduce circulating levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and lipoprotein (a) [Lp (a)], potentially fostering a more enduring phenotype for AS plaques. However, the underlying mechanisms by which PCSK9i enhances plaque stability remain unclear. In this study, we used microarray and bioinformatics techniques to analyze the regulatory impacts on gene expression pertinent to AS, thereby unveiling potential mechanisms underlying the plaque-stabilizing attributes of PCSK9i. Methods ApoE-/- mice were randomly allocated into control, AS, PCSK9i, and Atorvastatin groups. The AS model was induced through a high-fat diet (HFD), succeeded by interventions: the PCSK9i group was subjected to subcutaneous SBC-115076 injections (8 mg/kg, twice weekly), and the Atorvastatin group received daily oral Atorvastatin (10 mg/kg) while on the HFD. Subsequent to the intervention phase, serum analysis, histological assessment using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and Oil Red O staining, microarray-centered miRNA analysis utilizing predictions from TargetScan and miRTarBase, and analyses using Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) were executed to illuminate potential pathways. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was employed to quantify the expression levels of target genes. Results In comparison to the control group, the AS group displayed a significant elevation in blood lipid levels. Both PCSK9i and Atorvastatin effectively attenuated blood lipid levels, with PCSK9i exhibiting a more pronounced lipid-lowering impact, particularly concerning TG and LDL-C levels. Over the course of AS progression, the expression levels of mmu-miR-134, mmu-miR-141-5p, mmu-miR-17-3p, mmu-miR-195-3p, mmu-miR-210, mmu-miR-33-5p, mmu-miR-410, mmu-miR-411-5p, mmu-miR-499, mmu-miR-672-5p, mmu-miR-675-3p, and mmu-miR-301b underwent dynamic fluctuations. PCSK9i significantly down-regulated the expression of mmu-miR-186-5p, mmu-miR-222, mmu-miR-375-3p, and mmu-miR-494-3p. Further enrichment analysis disclosed that mmu-miR-186-5p, mmu-miR-222, mmu-miR-375-3p, and mmu-miR-494-3p were functionally enriched for cardiovascular smooth muscle cell proliferation, migration, and regulation. RT-qPCR results manifested that, in comparison to the AS group, PCSK9i significantly upregulated the expression of Wipf2, Pdk1, and Yap1 (p < 0.05). Conclusion Aberrant miRNA expression may play a pivotal role in AS progression in murine models of AS. The subcutaneous administration of PCSK9i exerted anti-atherosclerotic effects by targeting the miR-186-5p/Wipf2 and miR-375-3p/Pdk1/Yap1 axes, thereby promoting the transition of AS plaques into a more stable form.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the effects and safety of saline mixed 1∶1 with contrast medium (mixed medium) and pure heparinized saline as alternative media for optimal Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: This single-center, prospective cohort study enrolled patients who underwent PCI with OCT guidance for chronic stable angina or acute coronary syndrome at the Department of Cardiology, the Second Hospital of Jilin University from October 2021 to August 2022. The target vessels were examined using OCT with three different flushing media at the same anatomical positions: contrast agent, mixed medium, and pure heparinized saline. An independent observer analyzed all imaging results and evaluated the lumen imaging quality, using the proportion of the clear imaging field (CIF%) as a quantitative measure for analysis. The average luminal diameter was compared among different flushing media. The study also assessed the image quality of the luminal anatomical structures, lesion pathologies, and stents. Results: A total of 105 patients were enrolled in the study, including 110 target vessels. The age of the enrolled patients was (60.5±8.4) years, with 60 male patients (57.1%). OCT examinations were successfully completed using all three media, and no related complications were observed in any groups. The three flushing media presented with the same image quality in terms of depicting the lumen anatomical structures, lesion characteristics, and stent-related features. The mixed medium group achieved a comparable CIF% to the contrast group with both right and left coronary arteries (right coronary 100.0% (100.0%, 100.0%) vs. 100.0% (100.0%, 100.0%), P>0.05; left coronary 100.0% (95.9%, 100.0%) vs. 100.0% (100.0%, 100.0%), P>0.05). While the saline group reached a comparable CIF% to the contrast group with right coronary arteries (100.0% (97.6%, 100.0%) vs. 100.0% (95.9%, 100.0%), P>0.05) but showed a significantly lower CIF% with left coronary arteries (84.9% (75.9%, 93.4%) vs. 100.0% (100.0%, 100.0%), P<0.05). For the average diameter of the coronary lumen, there was no statistically significant difference between the mixed medium group and the saline group compared to the contrast group with both right and left coronary arteries (P>0.05). Conclusions: A 1∶1 heparinized saline and contrast mixture can serve as a substitute flushing medium for OCT examination during PCI procedure. Pure saline can also yield good results in OCT examination of the right coronary artery, and both alternatives are safe for use as flushing medium in OCT imaging.

Abstract
Based on data samples collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, the process e^{+}e^{-}→Σ^{+}Σ[over ¯]^{-} is studied at center-of-mass energies sqrt[s]=2.3960, 2.6454, and 2.9000 GeV. Using a fully differential angular description of the final state particles, both the relative magnitude and phase information of the Σ^{+} electromagnetic form factors in the timelike region are extracted. The relative phase between the electric and magnetic form factors is determined to be sinΔΦ=-0.67±0.29(stat)±0.18(syst) at sqrt[s]=2.3960 GeV, ΔΦ=55°±19°(stat)±14°(syst) at sqrt[s]=2.6454 GeV, and 78°±22°(stat)±9°(syst) at sqrt[s]=2.9000 GeV. For the first time, the phase of the hyperon electromagnetic form factors is explored in a wide range of four-momentum transfer. The evolution of the phase along with four-momentum transfer is an important input for understanding its asymptotic behavior and the dynamics of baryons.

Purpose This cross-sectional study aimed to compare the personality traits of patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and bipolar disorder (BD) with those of healthy individuals. The goal was to gain insight into the potential impact of personality traits on the development and manifestation of mood disorders. Methods One hundred seventy-eight patients with mood disorders were analyzed as either MDD or BD, with each group containing euthymic and depressive members: e-MDD, d-MDD, e-BD, and d-BD. Mood status was assessed using the Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS), and the 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-17). Ninety-five healthy individuals served as controls. Personality traits were assessed with the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire. Results The scores for neuroticism in the patient groups were comparable, but each group had higher scores compared to the control group (P < 0.001). Each patient group exhibited significantly lower scores for extraversion compared to the control group, with e-MDD, d-MDD, and d-BD showing particularly notable differences (P < 0.001); these groups scored significantly lower than the e-BD (P = 0.041, 0.009, 0.038). In patients with BD, there was an inverted association between extraversion score and HAMD total score (P = 0.010, r = -0.27), and a positive association with the YMRS total score (P = 0.022, r = 0.24). In the MDD group, there was a positive association between the neuroticism score and HAMD total score (P = 0.021, r = 0.25). Conclusion Patients with mood disorders are characterized by lower extraversion and higher neuroticism. Level of neuroticism associated with depression severity in MDD. Patients with BD may be more extraverted, but their extraversion can be affected by depressive episodes. Extraversion may be a feature of BD, and may differentiate BD from MDD. Personality traits are related to disease diathesis and state, and shaped by symptom manifestations.

Abstract
A simple, fast, and efficient ultrasonic-assisted supramolecular solvent microextraction combined with high performance liquid chromatography method was developed for the determination of coumarins in Cortex fraxini, including esculin, esculetin and fraxetin. In this study, a novel supramolecular solvent was prepared with 1-octanol, tetrahydrofuran and water for the first time, and its composition, viscosity, density, structure, and micromorphology were characterized. The prepared supramolecular solvent exhibited vesicular structures and had the characteristics of low viscosity. Through single-factor experiments, response surface methodology and artificial neural network-genetic algorithm, the optimal extraction conditions were obtained as follows: NaCl concentration of 1 mol mL-1, pH value of 10, solid-liquid ratio of 10:1, vortex time of 30 s, ultrasonic power of 100 W, ultrasonic temperature of 60 °C, ultrasonic time of 15 min, centrifugation speed of 5000 rpm, and centrifugation time of 1 min. The results demonstrated that the artificial neural network model exhibited maximum R-values of 0.98703, 0.97440, 0.99836, and 0.95447 for training, testing, validation, and all dataset, respectively. The minimum mean square errors were 0.75, 10.15, 1.99, and 2.63, respectively. This indicated that the predicted values were almost consistent with the actual values. Under the optimal conditions, the total extraction yields of target analytes reached 2.80 %. The calibration curves for each analyte exhibited excellent linearity within the linear range (r > 0.9993). The limits of detection and quantification ranged from 4.87 to 6.55 ng mL-1 and 16.24 to 21.84 ng mL-1, respectively. The recoveries ranged from 98.71 % to 111.01 % with relative standard deviations of less than 3.6 %. The present method had the advantages of short extraction time (15 min) and less solvent consumption (0.5 mL). The prepared supramolecular solvent was proved to have great potential in extracting coumarins from medicinal plants.

Abstract
Introduction Many women experience fear toward pregnancy, which can impact their desire to have children and the national birth rate. Thus, assessing women's fear of pregnancy is of great importance. However, there is currently no specialized tool for assessing women's fear of pregnancy in China. The purpose of this study is to translate the Fear of Pregnancy Scale into Chinese and test its reliability and validity among women of childbearing age. Methods Using convenience sampling combined with a snowballing method, a cross-sectional survey was conducted on 886 women of childbearing age in two cities in China. The translation was strictly carried out according to the Brislin model. Item analysis, validity analysis, and reliability analysis were employed for psychometric assessment. Results The Chinese version of the Fear of Pregnancy Scale comprises 28 items. Exploratory factor analysis extracted four factors with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 72.578%. Confirmatory factor analysis showed: NFI = 0.956, CFI = 0.986, GFI = 0.927, IFI = 0.986, TLI = 0.985, RMSEA = 0.032, and χ2/df = 1.444. The scale's Cronbach's α coefficient is 0.957, split-half reliability is 0.840, and test-retest reliability is 0.932. Conclusion The Chinese version of the Fear of Pregnancy Scale possesses robust psychometric properties and can assess the degree of pregnancy fear among Chinese women of childbearing age. It provides a reference for formulating relevant policies in the prenatal care service system and implementing targeted intervention measures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Emerging evidence has demonstrated the benefits of greenness exposure on human health, while conflicts remain unsolved in issue of adverse birth outcomes. METHODS Utilizing data from project ELEFANT spanning the years 2011 to 2021, we assessed residential greenness using the NDVI from MODIS data and residential PM2.5 exposure level from CHAP data. Our primary concerns were PTD, LBW, LGA, and SGA. Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to examine the association of residential greenness and air pollution exposure with risk of adverse birth outcomes. We performed mediation and modification effect analyses between greenness and air pollutant. RESULTS We identified 61,762 mother‑neonatal pairs in final analysis. For per 10 μg/m3 increase in PM2.5 concentration during entire pregnancy was associated with 19.8 % and 20.7 % increased risk of PTD and LGA. In contrast, we identified that an 0.1 unit increment in NDVI were associated with 24 %, 43 %, 26.5 %, and 39.5 % lower risk for PTD, LBW, LGA, and SGA, respectively. According to mediation analysis, NDVI mediated 7.70 % and 7.89 % of the associations between PM2.5 and PTD and LGA. Residential greenness could reduce the risk of PTD among mothers under 35 years old, living in rural areas, primigravidae and primiparity.. CONCLUSIONS In summary, our results highlighted the potential of residential greenness to mitigate the risk of adverse birth outcomes, while also pointing to the adverse impact of PM2.5 on increased risk of multiple adverse birth outcomes (PTD and LGA). The significant mediation effect of NDVI emphasizes its potential as an important protective factor of PM2.5 exposure. Additionally, the identification of susceptible subgroups can inform targeted interventions to reduce adverse birth outcomes related to air pollution and lack of green spaces. Further research and understanding of these associations can contribute to better public health strategies aimed at promoting healthier pregnancies and birth outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bipolar disorder (BD) is a complex mental illness characterized by different mood states, including depression, mania/hypomania, and euthymia. This study aimed to comprehensively evaluate dynamic changes in intrinsic brain activity by using dynamic fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (dfALFF) and dynamic degree centrality (dDC) in patients with BD euthymia or depression and healthy individuals. METHODS The resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging data were analyzed from 37 euthymic and 28 depressed patients with BD, as well as 85 healthy individuals. Using the sliding-window method, the dfALFF and dDC were calculated for each participant. These values were compared between the 3 groups using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Additional analyses were conducted using different window lengths, step width, and window type to ensure the reliability of the results. RESULTS The euthymic group showed significantly lower dfALFF and dDC values of the left and right cerebellum posterior lobe compared with the depressed and control groups (cluster level PFWE < 0.05), while the latter two groups were comparable. Brain regions showing significant group differences in the dfALFF analysis overlapped with those with significant differences in the dDC analysis. These results were consistent across different window lengths, step width, and window type. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggested that patients with euthymic BD exhibit less flexibility of temporal functional activities in the cerebellum posterior lobes compared to either depressed patients or healthy individuals. These results could contribute to the development of neuropathological models of BD, ultimately leading to improved diagnosis and treatment of this complex illness.

Abstract
Aging and interactions between genetic and environmental factors are believed to be involved the chronic development of Parkinson's disease (PD). Among PD patients, abnormally aggregated α-synuclein is a major component of the Lewy body. Generally, the intranasal route is believed to be a gate way to the brain, and it assists environmental neurotoxins in entering the brain and is related to anosmia during early PD. The current study applies the chronic intranasal application of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) in 4-, 8-, 12- and 16-month-old A53T-α-synuclein (A53T-α-Syn) transgenic C57BL/6 mice at 2-day intervals for a 2-month period, for evaluating the behavioral, pathological, and biochemical changes and microglial activation in these animals. According to our results, after intranasal administration of LPS, A53T-α-Syn mice showed severe progressive anosmia, hypokinesia, selective dopaminergic (DAergic) neuronal losses, decreased striatal dopamine (DA) level, and enhanced α-synuclein accumulation within the substantia nigra (SN) in an age-dependent way. In addition, we found obvious NF-кB activation, Nurr1 inhibition, IL-1β, and TNF-α generation within the microglia of the SN. Conversely, the wild-type (WT) mice showed mild, whereas A53T-α-Syn mice had moderate PD-like changes among the old mice. This study demonstrated the synergistic effect of intranasal LPS and α-synuclein burden on PD development. Its underlying mechanism may be associated with Nurr1 inhibition within microglia and the amplification of CNS neuroinflammation. The mice with multiple factors, including aging, neuroinflammation, and α-synuclein mutation, have played a significant role in enhancing our understanding of how inflammation and α-synuclein mutation contribute to the neurodegeneration observed in PD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) constitutes a significant complication following coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG), potentially linked to epicardial adipose tissue (EAT). This investigation seeks to elucidate the association between POAF and EAT at the genetic level. METHODS EAT and clinical data from patients undergoing CABG were systematically acquired, adhering to established inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients were categorized into POAF and Non-POAF groups based on the presence or absence of POAF. High-throughput sequencing data of EAT were subjected to differential expression analysis and gene function assessment. A random selection of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) underwent quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) for validation of the high-throughput sequencing findings. Coexpression analysis was employed to elucidate the interactions between lncRNAs and messenger RNAs (mRNAs). RESULTS RNA sequencing yielded a total of 69,685 transcripts (37,740 coding and 31,945 noncoding sequences), representing 16,920 genes. Within this dataset, 38 mRNAs and 12 lncRNAs exhibited differential expression between the POAF and Non-POAF groups (P < 0.05, fold change > 1.5). The qRT-PCR results for lncRNAs corroborated the sequencing findings (P < 0.01). Functional enrichment analysis of genes and the coexpression network indicated that these differentially expressed RNAs were primarily implicated in processes such as cell growth, differentiation, signal transduction, as well as influencing tissue fibrosis and ion transmembrane transport. CONCLUSIONS This study unveils a potential association between myocardial fibrosis and ion channels co-regulated by mRNAs and lncRNAs, closely linked to the emergence of new-onset POAF, after accounting for clinical risk factors. This discovery holds promise for further advances in clinical and fundamental research.

Abstract
The development of acquired resistance to small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) targeting epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling has hindered their efficacy in treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Our previous study showed that constitutive activation of the 70 kDa ribosomal protein S6 kinase 1 (S6K1) contributes to the acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs in NSCLC cell lines and xenograft tumors in nude mice. However, the regulatory mechanisms underlying S6K1 constitutive activation in TKI-resistant cancer cells have not yet been explored. In this study, we recapitulated this finding by taking advantage of a gefitinib-resistant patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model established through a number of passages in mice treated with increasing doses of gefitinib. The dissociated primary cells from the resistant PDX tumors (PDX-R) displayed higher levels of phosphor-S6K1 expression and were resistant to gefitinib compared to cells from passage-matched parental PDX tumors (PDX-P). Both genetic and pharmacological inhibition of S6K1 increased sensitivity to gefitinib in PDX-R cells. In addition, both total and phosphorylated mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase (MTOR) levels were upregulated in PDX-R and gefitinib-resistant PC9G cells. Knockdown of MTOR by siRNA decreased the expression levels of total and phosphor-S6K1 and increased sensitivity to gefitinib in PDX-R and PC9G cells. Moreover, a transcription factor ELK1, which has multiple predicted binding sites on the MTOR promoter, was also upregulated in PDX-R and PC9G cells, while the knockdown of ELK1 led to decreased expression of MTOR and S6K1. The chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-PCR assay showed the direct binding between ELK1 and the MTOR promoter, and the luciferase reporter assay further indicated that ELK1 could upregulate MTOR expression through tuning up its transcription. Silencing ELK1 via siRNA transfection improved the efficacy of gefitinib in PDX-R and PC9G cells. These results support the notion that activation of ELK1/MTOR/S6K1 signaling contributes to acquired resistance to gefitinib in NSCLC. The findings in this study shed new light on the mechanism for acquired EGFR-TKI resistance and provide potential novel strategies by targeting the ELK1/MTOR/S6K1 pathway.

Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA), an important endocrine disrupting compound, has infiltrated human daily lives through electronic devices, food containers, and children's toys. Developing of novel BPA assay methods with high sensitivity holds tremendous importance in valuing the pollution state. Here, we constructed an ultrasensitive photoelectrochemical (PEC) aptasensor for BPA determination by regulating photoactivities of CdS/Ni-based metal-organic framework (CdS/Ni-MOF) with [Ru(bpy)2dppz]2+ sensitizer. CdS/Ni-MOF spheres exhibited excellent photocatalytic performance, serving as a potential sensing platform for the construction of target recognition process. [Ru(bpy)2dppz]2+ were embedded into DNA double-stranded structure, functioning as sensitizer for modulating the signal response of the developed PEC aptasensor. The proposed PEC sensor exhibited outstanding analytical performances, including a wide linear range (0.1 to 1000.0 nM), low detection limit (0.026 nM, at 3σ/m), excellent selectivity, and high stability. This work provides a perspective for the design of ideal photosensitive materials and signal amplification strategies and extends their application in environment analysis.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the hallmarks of cardiovascular aging. The leakage of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is increased in senescent cells, which are resistant to programmed cell death such as apoptosis. Due to its similarity to prokaryotic DNA, mtDNA could be recognized by cellular DNA sensors and trigger innate immune responses, resulting in chronic inflammatory conditions during aging. The mechanisms include cGAS-STING signaling, TLR-9 and inflammasomes activation. Mitochondrial quality controls such as mitophagy could prevent mitochondria from triggering harmful inflammatory responses, but when this homeostasis is out of balance, mtDNA-induced inflammation could become pathogenic and contribute to age-related cardiovascular diseases. Here, we summarize recent studies on mechanisms by which mtDNA promotes inflammation and aging-related cardiovascular diseases, and discuss the potential value of mtDNA in early screening and as therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Background The early safety and efficacy of Castor branch stents have been demonstrated. However, the effect of aortic arch morphology on endovascular therapy remains an unresolved issue. This study aims to assess the impact of aortic arch morphology on the early outcomes of endovascular repair using Castor stent graft in patients who have acute type B aortic dissection involving the left subclavian artery (LSA). Methods This is a retrospective cohort study. From January 2019 to December 2021, forty-one patients scheduled for thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) of TBADs from Beijing Anzhen Hospital were enrolled in this retrospective cohort study and divided into two groups based on the length of the proximal landing zone left common carotid artery-LSA (PLZ LCCA-LSA), specifically the distance between the LCCA and the LSA (group A ≤10 mm and group B >10 mm). The study recorded technical success, mortality and aortic-related post-operative adverse events. Morphological indices were analyzed including the bird-beak configuration. The bird-beak configuration refers to the wedge-shaped gap between the undersurface of the endograft and the lesser curvature of the arch. The relationship between the risk of bird-beak configuration and PLZ was assessed with logistic regression analysis. Meanwhile, the relationship between the risk of aortic-related adverse events and bird-beak configuration was assessed with logistic regression analysis. Follow-up data were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier life table analysis. Results The study included 41 patients with a mean age of 63.1±9.2 years, of which 80.5% were male. 18 patients from group A and 23 patients from group B were included in the comparative analysis. There were no significant differences in aortic-related adverse events, bird-beak phenomenon and re-intervention between groups A and B in 30-day outcomes. Six-month outcomes: aortic-related adverse events and the bird-beak phenomenon were observed in 11 (26.8%) and 12 (29.3%) patients, respectively. There was a significant difference in the occurrence of aortic-related adverse events (P=0.036) and bird-beak phenomenon (P=0.002) between groups A and B. In comparison to group B, the aortic-related adverse event rate was significantly higher in group A, with event-free rates of 83.3%, 83.3%, and 72.2% at 1, 3, and 6 months, respectively (P=0.020). Multivariable logistic regression analyses revealed that PLZ LCCA-LSA length [odds ratio (OR) 0.79; 95% CI: 0.64 to 0.97; P=0.026] was significantly associated with the occurrence of the bird-beak configuration, and bird-beak (OR 17.19; 95% CI: 2.24 to 131.81; P=0.006) was a significant risk factor for aortic-related adverse events. Conclusions TEVAR with LSA revascularization has good early outcomes. However, it is more susceptible to aortic adverse events when the PLZ LCCA-LSA is less than 10 mm in length. This should be carefully considered, taking into account the risks and benefits.

Abstract
Background Discriminating hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and hypertensive heart disease (HHD) is challenging, because both are characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Radiomics might be effective to differentiate HHD from HCM. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate discriminators and build discrimination models between HHD and HCM using multiparametric cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) findings and radiomics score (radscore) derived from late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) and cine images. Methods In this single center, retrospective study, 421 HCM patients [median and interquartile range (IQR), 50.0 (38.0-59.0) years; male, 70.5%] from January 2017 to September 2021 and 200 HHD patients [median and IQR, 44.5 (35.0-57.0) years; male, 88.5%] from September 2015 to July 2022 were consecutively included and randomly stratified into a training group and a validation group at a ratio of 6:4. Multiparametric CMR findings were obtained using cvi42 software and radiomics features using Python software. After dimensional reduction, the radscore was calculated by summing the remaining radiomics features weighted by their coefficients. Multiparametric CMR findings and radscore that were statistically significant in univariate logistic regression were used to build combined discrimination models via multivariate logistic regression. Results After multivariate logistic regression, the maximal left ventricular end diastolic wall thickness (LVEDWT), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), presence of LGE, cine radscore and LGE radscore were identified as significant characteristics and used to build a combined discrimination model. This model achieved an area under the receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.979 (0.968-0.990) in the training group and 0.981 (0.967-0.995) in the validation group, significantly better than the model using multiparametric CMR findings alone (P<0.001). Conclusions Radiomics features derived from cardiac cine and LGE images can effectively discriminate HHD from HCM.

Abstract
Sex-biased genes offer insights into the evolution of sexual dimorphism. Sex-biased genes, especially those with male bias, show elevated evolutionary rates of protein sequences driven by positive selection and relaxed purifying selection in animals. Although rapid sequence evolution of sex-biased genes and evolutionary forces have been investigated in animals and brown algae, less is known about evolutionary forces in dioecious angiosperms. In this study, we separately compared the expression of sex-biased genes between female and male floral buds and between female and male flowers at anthesis in dioecious Trichosanthes pilosa (Cucurbitaceae). In floral buds, sex-biased gene expression was pervasive, and had significantly different roles in sexual dimorphism such as physiology. We observed higher rates of sequence evolution for male-biased genes in floral buds compared to female-biased and unbiased genes. Male-biased genes under positive selection were mainly associated with functions to abiotic stress and immune responses, suggesting that high evolutionary rates are driven by adaptive evolution. Additionally, relaxed purifying selection may contribute to accelerated evolution in male-biased genes generated by gene duplication. Our findings, for the first time in angiosperms, suggest evident rapid evolution of male-biased genes, advance our understanding of the patterns and forces driving the evolution of sexual dimorphism in dioecious plants.

Abstract
Objective To analyze the changing trend of the absolute number and constituent ratio of various in-patient diseases in the Department of Infectious Diseases of a large general hospital in Central China during 2013-2019. Methods A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the diagnostic data of discharged patients for seven consecutive years, from 2013 to 2019. The first discharge diagnosis is used as the basis for the disease classification. The absolute number, constituent ratio, and changing trend of major diseases in hepatobiliary diseases and infectious diseases were analyzed. Results The changing trend of the diseases during 2013-2019 showed that the absolute number of cases of hepatobiliary disease did not change significantly (p = 0.615), while the constituent ratio decreased significantly, from 68.01% in 2013 to 55.29% in 2019 (p<0.001). The absolute number (constituent ratio) of cases of infectious diseases increased significantly from 585 (21.91%) in 2013 to 1,244 (36.86%) in 2019 (p = 0.015, p<0.001). The major part of the increase was non-communicable infectious diseases (NCIDs). Conclusion During 2013-2019, the proportion of cases of hepatobiliary disease gradually decreased. The absolute number and proportion of cases of infectious diseases, especially NCIDs, have increased rapidly.

Abstract
This study investigates the impact of hard coatings on the fatigue properties of pure titanium. A specialized fatigue test which ensured machine equivalence was conducted to compare the fatigue behavior of coated and uncoated metals. The findings reveal that the application of coatings adversely affects the fatigue properties of pure titanium due to stress concentration from the coating, which accelerates fatigue crack propagation within the substrate material. Notably, zigzag fatigue cracks at the interface between the coating and substrate and multiple micro-cracks initiated within the coating are found.

Abstract
RATIONALE Lateral medullary syndrome is caused by atherosclerosis or embolism of the vertebral artery and its branches or the posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA).The eight-and-a-half syndrome is a rare pontocerebellar nerve-ocular syndrome presenting as a one-and-a-half syndrome plus ipsilateral seventh cerebral nerve palsy. The dorsolateral medullary syndrome combined with the eight-and-a-half syndromes is even rarer, so it is important to recognize the features of the classical brainstem syndrome and the eight-and-a-half syndromes. PATIENT CONCERNS Most patients with dorsolateral medullary syndrome combined with eight-and-a-half syndromes have a good prognosis, with recovery occurring within a few weeks to a few months, although a few patients may take longer to recover. DIAGNOSIS INTERVENTIONS In the course of disease development, the patient developed dysarthria, dysphagia, hypothermia, ipsilateral Horner sign and ataxia. Computed tomography was performed which showed cerebral infarction in the left brainstem. Cranial diffusion-weighted imaging + magnetic resonance angiography showed acute infarction in the left cerebellar hemisphere, with a high probability of severe stenosis or occlusion in the intracranial and proximal segments of the basilar arteries. This supports the diagnosis of dorsolateral medullary syndrome. The patient's limited adduction and abduction of the left eye and limited adduction of the right eye, combined with peripheral paralysis of the affected lateral nerve, supported the diagnosis of eight-and-a-half syndromes. The administration of antiplatelet and anti-ester fixation treatment can effectively improve the symptoms and shorten the course of the disease. OUTCOMES After antiplatelet and anti-ester fixation treatment, the symptoms improved and the patient was discharged. LESSONS Dorsolateral medullary syndrome combined with eight-and-a-half syndromes is a rare clinical condition, and therefore more attention should be paid to the early diagnosis and treatment of such patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 1 (NOD1) plays a pivotal role in inducing metabolic inflammation in diabetes. Additionally, the NOD1 ligand disrupts the equilibrium of bone marrow-derived hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells, a process that has immense significance in the development of diabetic retinopathy (DR). We hypothesized that NOD1 depletion impedes the advancement of DR by resolving bone marrow dysfunction. METHODS We generated NOD1-/--Akita double-mutant mice and chimeric mice with hematopoietic-specific NOD1 depletion to study the role of NOD1 in the bone marrow-retina axis. RESULTS Elevated circulating NOD1 activators were observed in Akita mice after 6 months of diabetes. NOD1 depletion partially restored diabetes-induced structural changes and retinal electrical responses in NOD1-/--Akita mice. Loss of NOD1 significantly ameliorated the progression of diabetic retinal vascular degeneration, as determined by acellular capillary quantification. The preventive effect of NOD1 depletion on DR is linked to bone marrow phenotype alterations, including a restored HSC pool and a shift in hematopoiesis toward myelopoiesis. We also generated chimeric mice with hematopoietic-specific NOD1 ablation, and the results further indicated that NOD1 had a protective effect against DR. Mechanistically, loss of hematopoietic NOD1 resulted in reduced bone marrow-derived macrophage infiltration and decreased CXCL1 and CXCL2 secretion within the retina, subsequently leading to diminished neutrophil chemoattraction and NETosis. CONCLUSIONS The results of our study unveil, for the first time, the critical role of NOD1 as a trigger for a hematopoietic imbalance toward myelopoiesis and local retinal inflammation, culminating in DR progression. Targeting NOD1 in bone marrow may be a potential strategy for the prevention and treatment of DR.

Abstract
A one-target-many-trigger signal model sensing strategy is proposed for quickly, sensitive and on-site detection of the environmental pollutant p-aminophenol (PAP) by use of a commercial personal glucose meter (PGM) for signal readout with the core-shell "loading-type" nanomaterial MSNs@MnO2 as amplifiable nanoprobes. In this design, the mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) nanocontainer with entrapped signal molecule glucose is coated with redoxable manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanosheets to form the amplifiable nanoprobes (Glu-MSNs@MnO2). When encountered with PAP, the redox reaction between the MnO2 and PAP can induce the degradation of the outer layer of MSNs@MnO2, liberating multiple copies of the loaded glucose to light up the PGM signal. Owing to the high loading capability of nanocarriers, a "one-to-many" relationship exists between the target and the signal molecule glucose, which can generate adequate signal outputs to achieve the requirement of on-site determination of environmental pollutants. Taking advantage of this amplification mode, the developed PAP assay owns a dynamic linear range of 10.0-400 μM with a detection limit of 2.78 μM and provides good practical application performance with above 96.7 ± 4.83% recovery in environmental water and soil samples. Therefore, the PGM-based amplifiable sensor for PAP proposed can accommodate these requirements of environment monitoring and has promising potential for evaluating pollutants in real environmental samples.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and atrial fibrillation (AF) frequently co-exist. There is a limited understanding on whether this coexistence is associated with distinct alterations in myocardial remodelling and mechanics. We aimed to determine if patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) represent a distinct phenotype. METHODS In this secondary analysis of adults with HFpEF (NCT03050593), participants were comprehensively phenotyped with stress cardiac MRI, echocardiography and plasma fibroinflammatory biomarkers, and were followed for the composite endpoint (HF hospitalisation or death) at a median of 8.5 years. Those with AF were compared to sinus rhythm (SR) and unsupervised cluster analysis was performed to explore possible phenotypes. RESULTS 136 subjects were included (SR = 75, AF = 61). The AF group was older (76 ± 8 vs. 70 ± 10 years) with less diabetes (36% vs. 61%) compared to the SR group and had higher left atrial (LA) volumes (61 ± 30 vs. 39 ± 15 mL/m2, p < 0.001), lower LA ejection fraction (EF) (31 ± 15 vs. 51 ± 12%, p < 0.001), worse left ventricular (LV) systolic function (LVEF 63 ± 8 vs. 68 ± 8%, p = 0.002; global longitudinal strain 13.6 ± 2.9 vs. 14.7 ± 2.4%, p = 0.003) but higher LV peak early diastolic strain rates (0.73 ± 0.28 vs. 0.53 ± 0.17 1/s, p < 0.001). The AF group had higher levels of syndecan-1, matrix metalloproteinase-2, proBNP, angiopoietin-2 and pentraxin-3, but lower level of interleukin-8. No difference in clinical outcomes was observed between the groups. Three distinct clusters were identified with the poorest outcomes (Log-rank p = 0.029) in cluster 2 (hypertensive and fibroinflammatory) which had equal representation of SR and AF. CONCLUSIONS Presence of AF in HFpEF is associated with cardiac structural and functional changes together with altered expression of several fibro-inflammatory biomarkers. Distinct phenotypes exist in HFpEF which may have differing clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Cyclophosphamide (CP) is a widely used chemotherapeutic drug and immunosuppressant in the clinic, and the hypoandrogenism caused by CP is receiving more attention. Some studies found that ferroptosis is a new mechanism of cell death closely related to chemotherapeutic drugs and plays a key role in regulating reproductive injuries. The purpose of this study is to explore ferroptosis' role in testicular Leydig cell dysfunction and molecular mechanisms relating to it. In this study, The level of ferroptosis in the mouse model of testicular Leydig cell dysfunction induced by CP was significantly increased and further affected testosterone synthesis. The ferroptosis inhibitors ferrostatin-1and iron chelator deferoxamine can improve injury induced by CP. The results of immunohistochemistry showed that ferrostatin-1 and deferoxamine could improve the structural disorder of seminiferous tubules and the decrease of the number of Leydig cells in testicular tissue induced by CP. Immunofluorescence and western blot confirmed that ferrostatin-1and deferoxamine could improve the expression of key enzymes in testosterone synthesis. The activation of Smad2 (SMAD family member 2)/Cdkn1a (cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A) pathway can improve the ferroptosis of Leydig cells induced by CP and protect the function of Leydig cells. By inhibiting the Smad2/Cdkn1a signal pathway, CP can regulate ferroptosis, resulting in testicular Leydig cell dysfunction. In this study, CP-induced hypoandrogenism is explained theoretically and a potential therapeutic strategy is provided.

Abstract
2D nanosheets (NSs) have been widely used in drug-related applications. However, a comprehensive investigation into the cytotoxicity mechanism linked to the redox activity is lacking. In this study, with cytochrome c (Cyt c) as the model biospecies, the cytotoxicity of 2D NSs was evaluated systematically based on their redox effect with microfluidic techniques. The interface interaction, dissolution, and redox effect of 2D NSs on Cyt c were monitored with pulsed streaming potential (SP) measurement and capillary electrophoresis (CE). The relationship between the redox activity of 2D NSs and the function of Cyt c was evaluated in vitro with Hela cells. The results indicated that the dissolution and redox activity of 2D NSs can be simultaneously monitored with CE under weak interface interactions and at low sample volumes. Both WS2 NSs and MoS2 NSs can reduce Cyt c without significant dissolution, with reduction rates measured at 6.24 × 10-5 M for WS2 NSs and 3.76 × 10-5 M for MoS2 NSs. Furthermore, exposure to 2D NSs exhibited heightened reducibility, which prompted more pronounced alterations associated with Cyt c dysfunction, encompassing ATP synthesis, modifications in mitochondrial membrane potential, and increased reactive oxygen species production. These observations suggest a positive correlation between the redox activity of 2D NSs and their redox toxicity in Hela cells. These findings provide valuable insight into the redox properties of 2D NSs regarding cytotoxicity and offer the possibility to modify the 2D NSs to reduce their redox toxicity for clinical applications.

Abstract
Based on our previous finding that polysaccharide peptide (PSP) has substantial antiviral activity, we cultured strawberry plants infected with strawberry mild yellow edge virus (SMYEV) or strawberry vein banding virus (SVBV) in Murashige and Skoog (MS) media supplemented with PSP to test its ability to eliminate these viruses. PSP not only improved the elimination of SMYEV and SVBV but also promoted the growth and rooting of strawberry plants in tissue culture. On the 45th day, the average height of the 'Ningyu' strawberry plants in the 1 mg/mL PSP treatment group was 1.91 cm, whereas that of the plants in the control group was 1.51 cm. After the same time point, the number of new leaves on the tissue culture media supplemented with 1 mg/mL and 500 µg/mL PSP and without PSP were 4.92, 4.41, and 3.53, respectively. PSP also promoted strawberry rooting and significantly increased both the length and number of roots. In addition, after treatment with 1 mg/mL PSP treatment in tissue culture for 45 days followed by meristem-shoot-tip culture, the elimination rates of SMYEV and SVBV in regenerated 'Ningyu' strawberry plants ranged from 60% to 100%. This study investigated the use of the antiviral agent PSP for virus elimination. PSP has a low production cost and thus has great application potential for virus elimination in crop plants.

Abstract
Background The synergistic effectiveness of combining immune checkpoint inhibitors with targeted therapies has shown promise in improving the conversion rate for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients to a potentially resectable status. However, the efficacy of this approach in the context of HCC with extrahepatic metastasis remains to be conclusively determined. Case presentation We report a rare case of advanced HCC with extrahepatic metastasis who achieved long-term survival by a combination of systemic therapy (sintilimab and sorafenib) followed by laparoscopic hepatectomy. A 63-year-old man presented at our hospital with discomfort on the right side of his waist. An enlarged right hepatic lobe mass was subsequently revealed by CT scan. The patient's medical history, including a prior infection with hepatitis B virus, cirrhosis of the liver and an alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) level measuring 41.28 ng/ml substantiated the clinical diagnosis of HCC. On October 30th, 2019, the patient received 200 mg sintilimab intravenously (q3w) plus 200-400 mg BID sorafenib orally, along with antiviral therapy. After six cycles, his disease achieved partial response (PR). On April 26th, 2021, He underwent a laparoscopic hepatectomy. The patient achieved a sustained period of no evidence of disease for 2.5 years and with drug-free survival for 2 years after the resection. His current overall survival is estimated at approximately 4 years. Conclusions This case highlights the potential of combining sintilimab and sorafenib in transforming HCC with extrahepatic metastasis into a condition amenable to surgical resection, suggesting that this treatment approach, followed by surgery, may lead to complete remission.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To investigate the clinical features, pregnancy care, timing, and approaches of pregnancy termination as well as the perinatal management of pregnant women with ectopic pheochromocytomas (EPCC) (paragangliomas, PGL). METHODS We report the diagnosis and treatment of a pregnant women with EPCC which was confirmed in the third trimester in our hospital. Literature in relation to EPCC during pregnancy both in and outside China was searched for data analysis such as maternal clinical features and maternal and fetal prognosis. RESULTS A total of 20 papers including 21 cases (plus ours) were retrieved. The average age of pregnant patients was 28 years old (from 21 to 37). Two patients presented no hypertension. Nineteen had hypertension in various extent with the accompany of headache (11 cases, 57.9%), palpitations (8 cases, 42.1%), sweating (6 cases, 31.6%), nausea (6 cases), abdominal pain (2 cases), etc. The tumor was found in the chest in 3 patients, in the upper abdomen in 1 patient, in the middle abdomen in 10 patients, between the lower abdomen and pelvic cavity in 3 patients and in the pelvic cavity in 3 patients. Five patients had a surgical removal of the tumor before delivery, 3 during cesarean section and 10 after giving birth. CONCLUSION EPCC (PGL) during pregnancy is a rare extra-adrenal tumor, whose manifestations are often confused with those of pregnancy-induced hypertension. It is extremely hard to diagnosis the disease before surgery. Patients still have an opportunity of undergoing spontaneous delivery if their tumors have been removed before labor. However, for patients whose pheochromocytomas is localized before labor, it is better to terminate their pregnancy via cesarean section in a proper time according to their obstetric conditions, while under the supervision of multidisciplinary specialists. The preparations of both α and β adrenergic receptor blocker treatment that is normally carried out before PGL removal surgery are unnecessary to be overemphasized before the cesarean section.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To quantitatively analyze the risk indicators of re-introduction of imported malaria in China and their weighting coefficients, so as to investigate the difference in the contribution of risk indicators included in the current risk assessment framework for re-introduction of imported malaria in China to the risk assessment of re-introduction of imported malaria. METHODS Publications pertaining to the risk assessment framework for re-introduction of imported malaria in China that reported the risk indicators and their weighting coefficients were retrieved in PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and VIP with terms of "malaria", "re-introduction/re-transmission/re-establishment", "risk assessment/risk evaluation/risk prediction" from the inception of the database through 3 August 2023, and literature search was performed in Google Scholar to ensure the comprehensiveness of the retrieval. Basic characteristics of included studies were extracted using pre-designed information extraction forms by two investigators, and data pertaining to risk indicators of re-introduction of imported malaria were cross-checked by these two investigators. The risk indicators included in the risk assessment framework for re-introduction of imported malaria in China and their weighting coefficients were visualized with the Nightingale's rose diagrams using the software R 4.2.1, and the importance of risk indictors was evaluated with the frequency of risk indicators included in the risk assessment framework and the ranking of weighting coefficients of risk indicators. In addition, the capability of risk indicators screened by different weighting methods was compared by calculating the ratio of the maximum to the minimum of the weighting coefficients of the risk indicators screened by different weighting methods. RESULTS A total of 2 138 publications were retrieved, and following removal of duplications and screening, a total of 8 publications were included in the final analysis. In these 8 studies, 8 risk assessment frameworks for re-introduction of imported malaria in China and 52 risk indicators of re-introduction of imported malaria were reported, in which number of imported malaria cases (n = 8) and species of malaria vectors were more frequently included in the risk assessment frameworks (n = 8), followed by species of imported malaria parasites (n = 6) and population density of local malaria vectors (n = 6), and species of local malaria vectors (n = 6), number of imported malaria cases (n = 5) and species of imported malaria parasites had the three highest weighting coefficients (n = 4). The weighting methods included expert scoring method, combination of expert scoring method and analytic hierarchy process, and combination of expert scoring method and entropy weight method in these 8 studies, and the ratios of the maximum to the minimum of the weighting coefficients of the risk indicators screened by the expert scoring method were 1.143 to 2.241, while the ratios of the maximum to the minimum of the weighting coefficients of the risk indicators screened by combination of the expert scoring method and analytic hierarchy process were 34.970 to 162.000. CONCLUSIONS Number of imported malaria cases, species of imported malaria parasites, species of local malaria vectors and population density of local malaria vectors are core indicators in the current risk assessment framework for re-introduction of imported malaria in China. Combination of the expert scoring method and analytic hierarchy process is superior to the expert scoring method alone for weighting the risk indicators.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Depression is a common mental disorder that endangers physical and mental health. In our study, we aimed to explore whether B vitamins are associated with depression and cognitive dysfunction. METHODS We enrolled a total of 220 patients with depression and selected 100 controls at the same time. We determined depression and cognitive impairment by assessments. We recorded the basic parameters of the participants and collected blood samples. In addition, we measured serum levels of B vitamins and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). RESULTS We found significant differences in the duration of depression, education, and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale scores between the D-NCI and D-CI groups. We also identified the independent risk factors for patients with depression and cognitive dysfunction. Compared with the healthy controls, serum folate, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12 positively correlated with cognitive dysfunction. The patients with depression and cognitive dysfunction had the lowest levels of B vitamins compared with the other two groups. Our results also showed that the levels of serum folate, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12 in the patients with depression had a positive correlation with each other. CONCLUSION Our results indicate that vitamin B is associated with depression and cognitive dysfunction and is positively associated with cognitive dysfunction.

Abstract
The conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) from biogas into medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) represents an eco-friendly resource recovery approach to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and combat global climate change. This study presented the novel concept of integrated resource recovery by coupling biogas upgrading and MCFAs production for the first time. Initially, the impact of different initial ethanol concentrations on chain elongation was examined, determining that an ethanol concentration of 160 mmol/L maximized MCFAs yield at 45.7 mmol/L. Subsequently, using this optimal ethanol supply, the integrated strategy was implemented by connecting two bioreactors in series and maintaining continuous operation for 160-day. The results were noteworthy: upgraded bio-methane purity reached 97.6 %, MCFAs production rate and carbon-flow distribution reached 24.5 mmol/L d-1 and 76.1 %, respectively. In summary, these promising outcomes pioneer a resource recovery approach, enabling the high-value utilization of biogas and the conversion of CO2 into valuable bio-chemicals.

Abstract
In the present study, twelve compounds from Dioscorea spongiosa were successfully purified by an efficient technique combined bioassay-guided fractionation macroporous resin column chromatography (MRCC) pretreatment and high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) separation for the first time. Then, D101 MRCC was used to fractionate the crude extract into five parts, which further applied the bioassay-guided fractionation strategy to screen the active fractions of 2 and 4. As for the separation, 200 mg Fr.2 was purified by HSCCC using EtOAc/n-BuOH/H2 O (2:2:3, v/v), leading to annulatomarin (1), dioscoresides C (2), diosniponol C (3), methyl protodioscin (4), pseudoprotodioscin (5), protogracillin (6), as well as 200 mg Fr.4 yielding montroumarin (7), dioscorone A (8), diosniponol D (9), protodioscin (10), gracillin (11), and dioscin (12) using CH2 Cl2 /MeOH/H2 O (3:3:2, v/v) with the purities over 95.0%. Finally, the isolates were assayed for their anti-inflammatory, urico-lowering, and anti-diabetic activities in vitro, which indicated that the steroidal saponins of 5, 6, and 11 showed all these three activities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The correlation between the expression of immunohistochemical markers and the clinicopathological characteristics of pulmonary high-grade neuroendocrine carcinomas (HGNEC) and its impact on the clinical outcomes of individuals with HGNEC has not yet been explored. METHODS This study enrolled patients diagnosed with HGNEC between April 2015 and July 2023. Based on the expression levels of synaptophysin (Syn), the neural cell adhesion molecule (CD56), thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1), and Ki-67, a comprehensive analysis was conducted. This involved a comparison of clinicopathological characteristics, chemosensitivity, overall survival (OS), and progression-free survival (PFS). Furthermore, the study identified prognostic factors associated with patient survival through univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS Eighty-two patients were analyzed. Significant differences were identified in tumor stage (χ2 = 5.473, P = 0.019), lymphatic invasion (χ2 = 8.839, P = 0.003), and distant metastasis (χ2 = 5.473, P = 0.019), respectively, between the CD56 positive and negative groups. A significant difference in lymphatic invasion was observed (χ2 = 9.949, P = 0.002) between the CD56 positive and negative groups. A significant difference in vascular invasion was observed (χ2 = 5.106, P = 0.024) between the low and high Ki-67 groups. Compared to the Syn negative group, the Syn positive group had significantly shorter PFS (P = 0.006). Compared to the Syn negative group, the Syn positive group had significantly shorter OS (P = 0.004). The CD56 positive group also had significantly shorter OS than the CD56 negative group (P = 0.027). Univariate analysis revealed that tumor stage and Syn expression were associated with OS and PFS. Lymphatic invasion and CD56 expression were associated with OS. Multivariate analysis revealed that tumor stage was the strongest predictor of poor prognosis for OS (hazard ratio [HR] 0.551, 95 % confidence interval [CI] 0.328-0.927, P = 0.025) and PFS (HR 0.409, 95 % CI 0.247-0.676, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Positive expression of Syn was associated with reduced PFS and OS, while positive CD56 expression was correlated with a shorter OS in HGNEC. The TNM stage was an independent risk factor that significantly influenced PFS and OS in patients with HGNEC. More studies are needed to make further progress in future treatment.

Abstract
Mutations in the BRCA2 gene are associated with sporadic and familial cancer, cause genomic instability and sensitize cancer cells to inhibition by the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). Here we show that human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) with one copy of BRCA2 deleted can be used to annotate variants of this gene and to test their sensitivities to PARP inhibition. By using Cas9 to edit the functional BRCA2 allele in the locally haploid hPSCs and in fibroblasts differentiated from them, we characterized essential regions in the gene to identify permissive and loss-of-function mutations. We also used Cas9 to directly test the function of individual amino acids, including amino acids encoded by clinical BRCA2 variants of uncertain significance, and identified alleles that are sensitive to PARP inhibitors used as a standard of care in BRCA2-deficient cancers. Locally haploid human pluripotent stem cells can facilitate detailed structure-function analyses of genes and the rapid functional evaluation of clinically observed mutations.

Abstract
In this study, 37 derivatives of phorbol esters were synthesized and their anti-HIV-1 activities evaluated, building upon our previous synthesis of 51 phorbol derivatives. 12-Para-electron-acceptor-trans-cinnamoyl-13-decanoyl phorbol derivatives stood out, demonstrating remarkable anti-HIV-1 activities and inhibitory effects on syncytia formation. These derivatives exhibited a higher safety index compared with the positive control drug. Among them, 12-(trans-4-fluorocinnamoyl)-13-decanoyl phorbol, designated as compound 3c, exhibited the most potent anti-HIV-1 activity (EC50 2.9 nmol·L-1, CC50/EC50 11 117.24) and significantly inhibited the formation of syncytium (EC50 7.0 nmol·L-1, CC50/EC50 4891.43). Moreover, compound 3c is hypothesized to act both as an HIV-1 entry inhibitor and as an HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibitor. Isothermal titration calorimetry and molecular docking studies indicated that compound 3c may also function as a natural activator of protein kinase C (PKC). Therefore, compound 3c emerges as a potential candidate for developing new anti-HIV drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND NT-proBNP (N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide) levels are variably elevated in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), even in the presence of increased left ventricular filling pressures. NT-proBNP levels are prognostic in HFpEF and have been used as an inclusion criterion for several recent randomized clinical trials. However, the underlying biologic differences between HFpEF participants with high and low NT-proBNP levels remain to be fully understood. METHODS We measured 4928 proteins using an aptamer-based proteomic assay (SOMAScan) in available plasma samples from 2 cohorts: (1) Participants with HFpEF enrolled in the PHFS (Penn Heart Failure Study; n=253); (2) TOPCAT (Treatment of Preserved Cardiac Function Heart Failure With an Aldosterone Antagonist Trial) participants in the Americas (n=218). We assessed the relationship between SOMAScan-derived plasma NT-proBNP and levels of other proteins available in the SOMAScan assay version 4 using robust linear regression, with correction for multiple comparisons, followed by pathway analysis. RESULTS NT-proBNP levels exhibited prominent proteome-wide associations in PHFS and TOPCAT cohorts. Proteins most strongly associated with NT-proBNP in both cohorts included SVEP1 (sushi, von Willebrand factor type-A, epidermal growth factor, and pentraxin domain containing 1; βTOPCAT=0.539; P<0.0001; βPHFS=0.516; P<0.0001) and ANGPT2 (angiopoietin 2; βTOPCAT=0.571; P<0.0001; βPHFS=0.459; P<0.0001). Canonical pathway analysis demonstrated consistent associations with multiple pathways related to fibrosis and inflammation. These included hepatic fibrosis and inhibition of matrix metalloproteases. Analyses using cut points corresponding to estimated quantitative concentrations of 360 pg/mL (and 480 pg/mL in atrial fibrillation) revealed similar proteomic associations. CONCLUSIONS Circulating NT-proBNP levels exhibit prominent proteomic associations in HFpEF. Our findings suggest that higher NT-proBNP levels in HFpEF are a marker of fibrosis and inflammation. These findings will aid the interpretation of NT-proBNP levels in HFpEF and may guide the selection of participants in future HFpEF clinical trials.
