Measurements of Proton High-Order Cumulants in sqrt[s_{NN}]=3 GeV Au+Au Collisions and Implications for the QCD Critical Point. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2022; 128:202303. [PMID: 35657878 DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.128.202303] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2021] [Accepted: 04/11/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
We report cumulants of the proton multiplicity distribution from dedicated fixed-target Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=3.0 GeV, measured by the STAR experiment in the kinematic acceptance of rapidity (y) and transverse momentum (p_{T}) within -0.5<y<0 and 0.4<p_{T}<2.0 GeV/c. In the most central 0%-5% collisions, a proton cumulant ratio is measured to be C_{4}/C_{2}=-0.85±0.09 (stat)±0.82 (syst), which is 2σ below the Poisson baseline with respect to both the statistical and systematic uncertainties. The hadronic transport UrQMD model reproduces our C_{4}/C_{2} in the measured acceptance. Compared to higher energy results and the transport model calculations, the suppression in C_{4}/C_{2} is consistent with fluctuations driven by baryon number conservation and indicates an energy regime dominated by hadronic interactions. These data imply that the QCD critical region, if created in heavy-ion collisions, could only exist at energies higher than 3 GeV.

Abstract
We report precision measurements of hypernuclei _{Λ}^{3}H and _{Λ}^{4}H lifetimes obtained from Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=3.0 GeV and 7.2 GeV collected by the STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider, and the first measurement of _{Λ}^{3}H and _{Λ}^{4}H midrapidity yields in Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=3.0 GeV. _{Λ}^{3}H and _{Λ}^{4}H, being the two simplest bound states composed of hyperons and nucleons, are cornerstones in the field of hypernuclear physics. Their lifetimes are measured to be 221±15(stat)±19(syst) ps for _{Λ}^{3}H and 218±6(stat)±13(syst) ps for _{Λ}^{4}H. The p_{T}-integrated yields of _{Λ}^{3}H and _{Λ}^{4}H are presented in different centrality and rapidity intervals. It is observed that the shape of the rapidity distribution of _{Λ}^{4}H is different for 0%-10% and 10%-50% centrality collisions. Thermal model calculations, using the canonical ensemble for strangeness, describes the _{Λ}^{3}H yield well, while underestimating the _{Λ}^{4}H yield. Transport models, combining baryonic mean-field and coalescence (jam) or utilizing dynamical cluster formation via baryonic interactions (phqmd) for light nuclei and hypernuclei production, approximately describe the measured _{Λ}^{3}H and _{Λ}^{4}H yields. Our measurements provide means to precisely assess our understanding of the fundamental baryonic interactions with strange quarks, which can impact our understanding of more complicated systems involving hyperons, such as the interior of neutron stars or exotic hypernuclei.

Abstract
Objective: We aimed to investigate the autoimmune status of long-term type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) patients with residual β-cell function. Methods: The residual β-cell function of long-term (disease duration≥10 years) autoimmune T1DM patients from the T1DM Integrated Management Clinic of the Second Xiangya Hospital was assessed by serum C-peptide levels. Patients with fasting or 2-hour postprandial C-peptide levels over the lower sensitivity limit of detection (16.7 pmol/L) were grouped as C-peptide-positive, and others were grouped as C-peptide-negative. We screened and enrolled all the C-peptide-positive patients (n=19). C-peptide-negative patients with matched sex, age, duration, BMI (n=19) and healthy controls (n=19) were recruited at the same time. The frequencies of CD4+T cell (Th1/Th2/Th17/Treg) and B cell (MZB/FoB/B10) subsets, the expression of PD-1/PD-L1 on T and B lymphocytes, and the levels of T1DM related cytokines including IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-1RA, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12p40, IL-12p70, IL-23 and IP-10 were tested. We compared these parameters in patients with different levels of β-cell function. Results: In healthy controls, C-peptide-negative and C-peptide-positive patients, the frequencies M (Q1, Q3) of Th1 cells were 9.93% (7.45%, 15.20%), 14.90% (11.70%, 18.00%) and 10.20% (6.93%, 15.80%) (P=0.015), and the frequencies M (Q1, Q3) of Treg cells were 3.52% (2.92%, 5.68%),2.88% (1.64%, 3.22%) and 3.12% (2.81%, 4.81%) (P=0.005), and the frequencies M(Q1,Q3) of PD-1+B cells were 4.69% (2.64%, 6.37%), 2.11% (1.45%, 3.63%) and 4.20% (2.53%, 6.01%) (P=0.003), respectively. The levels of IL-6 M(Q1,Q3)were 26.43(18.06, 33.35) ng/L, 42.97 (25.52, 66.30) ng/L, and 22.07 (14.85, 34.45) ng/L (P=0.006), and the levels of IP-10 M(Q1,Q3) were 107.39 (76.19, 126.07) ng/L, 188.82 (131.27, 348.18) ng/L and 128.26 (114.31, 136.50) ng/L (P<0.001) in healthy controls, C-peptide-negative and C-peptide-positive patients, respectively. Compared with C-peptide-positive patients, the frequency of Th1 cells and the levels of IL-6 and IP-10 cytokines were higher, while the frequencies of Treg cells and PD-1+B cells were lower in C-peptide-negative patients (all P<0.05). Conclusions: Long-term T1DM patients with residual β-cell function had lower frequency of Th1 cells, lower levels of IL-6, IP-10 cytokines, and higher frequencies of Treg and PD-1+B cells, which indicated a pronounced autoimmune tolerance.

Abstract
Objectives: To summarize the clinical phenotypes and the variation spectrum of ATP7B gene in Chinese children with Wilson's disease (WD) and to investigate their significance for early diagnosis. Methods: Retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 316 children diagnosed as WD in Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center during the period from January 2010 to June 2021. The general situations, clinical manifestations, lab test results, imaging examinations, and ATP7B gene variant characteristics were collected. The patients were divided into asymptomatic WD group and symptomatic WD group based on the presence or absence of clinical symptoms at the time that WD diagnosis was made. The χ2 test, t test or Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare the differences between groups. Results: Among the 316 children with WD, 199 were males and 117 were females, with the age of 5.4 (4.0, 7.6) years at diagnosis; 261 cases (82.6%) were asymptomatic with the age of 4.9 (3.9, 6.4) years; whereas 55 cases (17.4%) were symptomatic with the age of 9.6 (7.3, 12.0) years. The main symptoms invloved liver, kidney, nervous system, or skin damage. Of all the patients, 95.9% (303/316) had abnormal liver function at diagnosis; 98.1% (310/316) had the serum ceruloplasmin lever lower than 200 mg/L; 97.7% (302/309) had 24-hour urine copper content exceeding 40 μg; only 7.4% (23/310) had positive corneal K-F rings, 8.2% (23/281) had abnormal MRI signals in the lenticular nucleus, and all of them had symptoms of damage in liver, kidney or nervous system. Compared with the group of symptomatic WD, asymptomatic group had higher levels of serum alanine aminotransferase and lower levels ceruloplasmin and 24-hour urine copper [(208±137) vs. (72±78) U/L, (55±47) vs. (69±48) mg/L, 103 (72, 153) vs. 492 (230, 1 432) μg; t=9.98, -1.98, Z=-4.89, all P<0.001]. Among the 314 patients completing genetic sequencing, a total of 107 mutations in ATP7B gene were detected, of which 10 are novel variants, and 3 cases (1.0%) had large heterozygous deletion (exons 10 to exon 11) in ATP7B gene. The percentage of missense mutation in asymptomatic WD children was significantly higher than that in symptomatic WD (81.5% (422/518) vs. 69.1% (76/110), χ²=8.47, P<0.05). WD patients carrying homozygous variant of c.2 333G>T had significantly low levels of ceruloplasmin than those not carrying this variant ((23±5) vs. (61±48) mg/L, t=-2.34, P<0.001). Conclusions: The elevation of serum ALT is an important clue for early diagnosis of WD in children, while serum ceruloplasmin and 24-hour urine copper content are specific markers for early diagnosis of WD. In order to confirm the diagnosis of WD, it is necessary to combine the Sanger sequencing with multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification or other testing technologies.

Abstract
Understanding gluon density distributions and how they are modified in nuclei are among the most important goals in nuclear physics. In recent years, diffractive vector meson production measured in ultraperipheral collisions (UPCs) at heavy-ion colliders has provided a new tool for probing the gluon density. In this Letter, we report the first measurement of J/ψ photoproduction off the deuteron in UPCs at the center-of-mass energy sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV in d+Au collisions. The differential cross section as a function of momentum transfer -t is measured. In addition, data with a neutron tagged in the deuteron-going zero-degree calorimeter is investigated for the first time, which is found to be consistent with the expectation of incoherent diffractive scattering at low momentum transfer. Theoretical predictions based on the color glass condensate saturation model and the leading twist approximation nuclear shadowing model are compared with the data quantitatively. A better agreement with the saturation model has been observed. With the current measurement, the results are found to be directly sensitive to the gluon density distribution of the deuteron and the deuteron breakup process, which provides insights into the nuclear gluonic structure.

Abstract
Ectopic thymic carcinoma (ETC) of the parotid gland is a rare entity. This report describes the case of a 52-year-old man with a painless mass in the right parotid gland. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a biphasic mass consisting of a central segment and a peripheral segment. The patient underwent a superficial parotidectomy, and point-to-point correspondence sampling for analysis based on MRI findings was performed. The pathological finding was ETC, and there was an excellent association between MRI characteristics and histopathological findings. Subsequently, the patient underwent postoperative radiation therapy. At the 9-month follow-up, he had recovered well without facial paralysis, and there was no evidence of recurrence or metastasis. This report describes the clinical, radiological, and pathological features of the ETC.

Abstract
The chiral magnetic effect (CME) refers to charge separation along a strong magnetic field due to imbalanced chirality of quarks in local parity and charge-parity violating domains in quantum chromodynamics. The experimental measurement of the charge separation is made difficult by the presence of a major background from elliptic azimuthal anisotropy. This background and the CME signal have different sensitivities to the spectator and participant planes, and could thus be determined by measurements with respect to these planes. We report such measurements in Au+Au collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 200 GeV at the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider. It is found that the charge separation, with the flow background removed, is consistent with zero in peripheral (large impact parameter) collisions. Some indication of finite CME signals is seen in midcentral (intermediate impact parameter) collisions. Significant residual background effects may, however, still be present.

EUROPEAN REVIEW FOR MEDICAL AND PHARMACOLOGICAL SCIENCES 2022; 26:1852-1859.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2(ACE2) is a critical element of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), which can convert angiotensin (Ang)II to Ang(1-7), followed by binding Mas receptor (MasR) and subsequently produces cardioprotective effects through various signal transduction pathways. It has been discovered in research that activation of the RAS contributes a crucial influence during the myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (MIRI) development. The features of ACE2, Ang(1-7), and MasR, as well as the function of the ACE2/Ang(1-7)/MasR axis in MIRI, are discussed in our review, with the therapeutic potential of this axis as a new treatment option for MIRI patients shown. MATERIALS AND METHODS To retrieve a thorough collection of studies, we performed a search in PubMed using the following combination of keywords: (ACE2) or (Ang1-7) or (Mas receptor) and (Myocardial Ischemia reperfusion injury). The time limits used for the search were 1986 to 2021. RESULTS In total, 367 articles were included. Titles and abstracts of articles were screened for relevance, and all relevant articles published in English were included. CONCLUSIONS ACE2, a prominent member of the RAS, performs a crucial regulatory function in the cardiovascular system. ACE2 regulates the RAS inversely mainly by hydrolyzing the harmful AngII to the beneficial Ang(1-7). Increasing or activating ACE2 or Ang(1-7) may help prevent and treat MIRI. However, additional research into the specific processes behind the ACE2/Ang(1-7)/MasR axis in MIRI is necessary, as well as the performance of additional in-depth studies to go from basic research to clinical translation.

Abstract
A joint determination of the reactor antineutrino spectra resulting from the fission of ^{235}U and ^{239}Pu has been carried out by the Daya Bay and PROSPECT Collaborations. This Letter reports the level of consistency of ^{235}U spectrum measurements from the two experiments and presents new results from a joint analysis of both data sets. The measurements are found to be consistent. The combined analysis reduces the degeneracy between the dominant ^{235}U and ^{239}Pu isotopes and improves the uncertainty of the ^{235}U spectral shape to about 3%. The ^{235}U and ^{239}Pu antineutrino energy spectra are unfolded from the jointly deconvolved reactor spectra using the Wiener-SVD unfolding method, providing a data-based reference for other reactor antineutrino experiments and other applications. This is the first measurement of the ^{235}U and ^{239}Pu spectra based on the combination of experiments at low- and highly enriched uranium reactors.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the effect of femtosecond laser-assisted corneoscleral lamellar keratoplasty (FL-CSLK) on peripheral corneal disease (PCD). Methods: Retrospective cohort study. Six patients (6 eyes) with PCD who underwent FL-CSLK in Qingdao Eye Hospital from March 2014 to March 2017 were grouped as the FL-CSLK group, including 4 males and 2 females, aged (46.7±17.9) years. In addition, 8 patients (8 eyes) with PCD who underwent traditional corneoscleral lamellar keratoplasty in the same period were included in the control group. The items for analyses were as follows: visual function recovery, including visual acuity, equivalent spherical power, and astigmatism; the state of the cornea, including the healing time of the corneal epithelium, the transparency of the graft, the thickness of the corneal graft and implant bed, and the loss rate of corneal endothelial cells; intraoperative and postoperative complications, including high intraocular pressure, interlayer effusion, delayed corneal epithelial healing, immune rejection, and primary recurrence. Paired t-test was used to compare the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), equivalent spherical power, and astigmatism before and after operation. The BCVA and corneal graft epithelial healing time between the two groups were compared by independent sample t-test. Results: The 6 patients in the FL-CSLK group included 2 cases of Mooren ulcer, 3 cases of Terrien marginal degeneration, and 1 case of pellucid marginal degeneration. The control group consisted of 4 eyes with Mooren ulcer and 4 eyes with Terrien marginal degeneration. The BCVA (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution) in the FL-CSLK group was 0.35±0.09 at 6 months after operation, which was significantly higher than that before operation (1.17±0.15; t=9.01, P<0.001) and at 6 months after operation in the control group (0.78±0.29; t=-3.96, P=0.003). The equivalent spherical power was (4.8±2.7) D, lower than that before operation (t=-3.71, P=0.014), and the astigmatism power was (10.1±4.1) D, lower than that before operation (t=6.04, P=0.002) in the FL-CSLK group. The healing time of the graft epithelium in the FL-CSLK group and control group was (8.5±3.3) days and (12.8±6.1) days, respectively, with no significant difference (t=-1.54, P=0.149). The central thickness of the graft in the FL-CSLK group was (525±47) μm at 6 months after operation, the central thickness of the implant bed was (189±119) μm, and the loss rate of the corneal endothelium was 7.5%±2.1%. In the control group, 1 case had intraoperative perforation, 2 cases had intracorneal hemorrhage, and 1 case had intracorneal epithelial implantation cysts and graft ulcer. There were no intraoperative and postoperative complications in the FL-CSLK group. Conclusions: FL-CSLK can yield good clinical results in the treatment of PCD. The smooth optical interface made by femtosecond lasers can help the patient achieve a good visual prognosis. The procedure reduces the risk of corneal perforation and thus improves the surgery safety.

Abstract
Aim To investigate the uncertainty in illness, anxiety, depression and quality of life in patients receiving maintenance haemodialysis and confirm the correlations between these variables. Design A cross‐sectional study was conducted among 396 patients receiving maintenance haemodialysis in four tertiary hospitals in China. Methods Uncertainty in illness was measured by Mishel's uncertainty in illness scale. The scores of self‐rating anxiety scale, self‐rating depression scale and medical outcomes study short form 36 were collected and compared with available norms. The Pearson correlation coefficient was calculated to investigate the correlation between uncertainties in illness with these vital variables. Results The mean score of uncertainty in illness was 78.16 out of 160. Compared with the norm, patients receiving maintenance haemodialysis had a statistically significantly lower score of depression and higher scores of most domains of quality of life. Uncertainty in illness is corrected with anxiety, depression positively and with quality of life negatively.

Abstract
Purpose To examine changes in physical activity (PA) during a behavioral weight-loss intervention and determine baseline factors associated with PA goal achievement. Methods Overweight/obese community-dwelling adults with valid PA accelerometer data (N=116; mean age 51.7 years; 89% female; 83% non-Hispanic White) were recruited into a single-arm prospective cohort study examining the effects of a 12-month intervention that included 24 in-person group sessions, weight-loss, calorie, fat gram, and PA goals, self-monitoring, and feedback. Minutes of moderate-to-vigorous (MV) PA and steps were measured using a waist-worn accelerometer (ActiGraph GT3x) at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months. Achievement of the 150 minute/week MVPA goal was examined using total minutes and bout minutes (i.e., counting only PA occurring in bouts ≥10 minutes in length). Change in PA was analyzed using non-parametric tests for multiple comparisons. Associations of factors with meeting the PA goal were modeled using binary logistic regression. Results At 6 months, there were increases from baseline in MVPA (median [p25, p75]: 5.3 [-0.9, 17.6] minutes/day) and steps (863 [-145, 2790] steps/day), both p<0.001. At 12 months, improvements were attenuated (MVPA: 2.4 [-2.0, 11.4] minutes/day, p=0.047; steps: 374[-570, 1804] p=0.14). At 6 months, 33.6% of individuals met the PA goal (using total or bout minutes). At 12 months, the percent meeting the goal using total MVPA [31%] differed from bout MVPA [22.4%]. Male gender (OR=4.14, p=0.027) and an autumn program start (versus winter; OR=3.39, p=0.011) were associated with greater odds of goal achievement at 6 months. Conclusions The intervention increased PA goal achievement at 6 and 12 months with many making clinically meaningful improvements. Our results suggest female participants may require extra support toward improving PA levels.

Abstract
According to first-principle lattice QCD calculations, the transition from quark-gluon plasma to hadronic matter is a smooth crossover in the region μ_{B}≤T_{c}. In this range the ratio, C_{6}/C_{2}, of net-baryon distributions are predicted to be negative. In this Letter, we report the first measurement of the midrapidity net-proton C_{6}/C_{2} from 27, 54.4, and 200 GeV Au+Au collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). The dependence on collision centrality and kinematic acceptance in (p_{T}, y) are analyzed. While for 27 and 54.4 GeV collisions the C_{6}/C_{2} values are close to zero within uncertainties, it is observed that for 200 GeV collisions, the C_{6}/C_{2} ratio becomes progressively negative from peripheral to central collisions. Transport model calculations without critical dynamics predict mostly positive values except for the most central collisions within uncertainties. These observations seem to favor a smooth crossover in the high-energy nuclear collisions at top RHIC energy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate nurses' behavioral intention toward caring for COVID-19 patients on mechanical ventilation, as well as the factors affecting their intention. BACKGROUND COVID-19 patients undergoing mechanical ventilation have many care needs and pose more challenges for nurses, which might adversely affect nurses' intention toward caring behavior. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted by using simple random sampling to recruit 598 nurses from five tertiary hospitals in Sichuan Province, China. The participants responded to an online questionnaire that included questions on demographic characteristics; the Attitude, Subjective Norms, and Behavioral Intention of Nurses toward Mechanically Ventilated Patients (ASIMP) questionnaire; the Nursing Professional Identity Scale (NPIS); and the Compassion Fatigue-Short Scale (CF-Short Scale). ANOVA, Spearman correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression were performed to analyze the data. RESULTS The mean total behavioral intention score was 179.46 (± 14.83) out of a total score of 189.00, which represented a high level of intention toward caring for patients on mechanical ventilation. Multiple linear regression revealed that subjective norms (β = 0.390, P<0.001), perceived behavioral control (β = 0.149, P<0.001), professional identity (β = 0.101, P = 0.009), and compassion fatigue (β = 0.088 P = 0.024) were significant predictors of nurses' behavioral intention. CONCLUSIONS Most nurses have a positive behavioral intention to care for COVID-19 patients undergoing mechanical ventilation. The findings in this study provide some insight for developing effective and tailored strategies to promote nurses' behavioral intention toward caring for ventilated patients under the pandemic situation.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction/Objective
The clinical significance of H. pylori (HP) pattern of gastritis with a negative Helicobacter IHC stain on gastric biopsy is unclear. Some pathologists report this pattern in cases that are highly suggestive of HP infection with a comment raising the possibility of HP infection; however, the subsequent clinical management of these patients has not been well described.
Methods/Case Report
We conducted a retrospective comparison study of patients with gastric biopsy between 2016 and 2019. Group 1 included patients with chronic active or chronic inactive gastritis and negative HP IHC with a comment stating the gastritis pattern is suggestive of HP. Group 2 included patients with chronic active or chronic inactive gastritis and negative HP IHC with no comment about HP pattern.
Results (if a Case Study enter NA)
We identified 60 patients in Group 1 which were compared to 63 patients in Group 2. Group 1 more frequently had history of HP (48.3% vs. 29.1%, p<0.05). After diagnosis, Group 1 more frequently received treatment (51.7% vs. 20.6%, p<0.001). Of those who received treatment, Group 1 more frequently received HP treatment (triple or quadruple therapy; 21.7% vs. 1.6%, p<0.001). History of HP did not affect whether a patient was treated (p>0.05). Following post-biopsy HP treatment, more patients in Group 1 received fecal antigen test (23.7% vs. 5.5%, p<0.01). Age, gender, NSAID and PPI use did not differ between groups.
Conclusion
Adding the diagnostic comment raising the possibility of HP for patients with HP pattern gastritis with negative HP IHC changes clinical management and it is independent of patients’ prior HP history.

Abstract
A total of 106 patients who were diagnosed with Bosniak catergory ⅡF or Ⅲ cystic renal masses (CRM) and underwent surgery in Zhongshan-Xuhui Hospital and Xuhui District Central Hospital between January 2018 and December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The diagnostic accuracy of renal cyst index (RCI) and Bosniak classification system was compared by analyzing the relevant parameters including the sensitivity and specificity. There were 62 males and 44 females, with a median age of 56 years old. Among the 106 CRM, 72 were benign and 34 were malignant. The sensitivity and specificity of RCI was 94.12% and 81.94%, respectively, while the sensitivity and specificity of Bosniak classification system was 73.53% and 80.56%, respectively. Chi-square test revealed that the sensitivity of RCI was significantly higher than that of Bosniak classification system (P=0.023). The current study indicates that RCI is a simple and feasible method which can provide quantitative evaluation for predicting characteristics of CRM.
