Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is a common sleep respiratory disorder characterized by upper respiratory collapse during sleep, with a high prevalence and potentially fatal complications. Currently, maxillary transverse deficiency are considered to be an important pathogenic factor of OSAHS. For patients with poor compliance with positive airway pressure therapy, rapid maxillary expansion can increase the volume and ventilation of the upper respiratory tract, which is an alternative treatment. This paper reviewed the current research on surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion, miniscrew assisted rapid palatal expansion, and distraction osteogenesis maxillary expansion in the treatment of adult OSAHS. By comparing the indications, contraindications, complications, efficacy and long-term stability of the three treatment methods, it provided reference for treatment of patients with OSAHS.

Abstract
Conventional strategies for treating inflammatory bowel disease merely relieve inflammation and excessive immune response, but fail to solve the underlying causes of IBD, such as disrupted gut microbiota and intestinal barrier. Recently, natural probiotics have shown tremendous potential for the treatment of IBD. However, probiotics are not recommended for IBD patients, as they may cause bacteremia or sepsis. Herein, for the first time, we constructed artificial probiotics (Aprobiotics) based on artificial enzyme-dispersed covalent organic frameworks (COFs) as the "organelle" and a yeast shell as the membrane of the Aprobiotics to manage IBD. The COF-based artificial probiotics, with the function of natural probiotics, could markedly relieve IBD by modulating the gut microbiota, suppressing intestinal inflammation, protecting the intestinal epithelial cells, and regulating immunity. This nature-inspired approach may aid in the design of more artificial systems for the treatment of various incurable diseases, such as multidrug-resistant bacterial infection, cancer, and others.

Abstract
As one of the most typical bioorthogonal reactions, the Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne 1,3-cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction has received worldwide attention in intracellular transformation of prodrugs due to its high efficiency and selectivity. However, the exogenous Cu catalysts may disturb Cu homeostasis and cause side effects to normal tissues. What is more, the intratumoral Cu(I) is insufficient to efficiently catalyze the intracellular CuAAC reaction due to oncogene-induced labile Cu(I) deficiency. Herein, in order to boost the endogenous Cu(I) level for intracellular drug synthesis through the bioorthogonal reaction, a self-adaptive bioorthogonal catalysis system was constructed by encapsulating prodrugs and sodium ascorbate within adenosine triphosphate aptamer-functionalized metal-organic framework nanoparticles. The system presents specificity to tumor cells and does not require exogenous Cu catalysts, thereby leading to high anti-tumor efficacy and minimal side effects both in vitro and in vivo. This work will open up a new opportunity for developing biosafe and high-performance bioorthogonal catalysis systems.

Abstract
Here, we provide an out-of-the-box G-quadruplex (G4) targeting-based strategy for rescuing mitochondrial dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease. We predict and verify the presence of G4s within the promoter of an ageing epigenetic regulator BAZ2B. G4-specific ligands targeting BAZ2B G4s could significantly down-regulate the BAZ2B expression and relieve mitochondrial dysfunction. Therefore, this work may provide a new way of rescuing mitochondrial dysfunction in AD by targeting G4s in a specific ageing epigenetic regulator promoter.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) has been reported to be a major cause of low back pain (LBP). Interleukin (IL)-37 is an anti-inflammatory cytokine of the interleukin-1 family, which exerts salutary physiological effects. In this study, we assessed the protective effect of IL-37 on IDD progression and its underlying mechanisms. METHODS Immunofluorescence (IF) was conducted to measure IL-37 expression in nucleus pulposus tissues. CCK-8 assay and Edu staining were used to examine the vitality of IL-37-treated nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs). Western blot, qPCR, ELISA as well as immunohistochemistry were used to assess senescence associated secreted phenotype (SASP) factors expression; and NF-κB pathway was evaluated by western blot and IF; while IL-1R8 knock-down by siRNAs was performed to ascertain its significance in the senescence phenotype modulated by IL-37. The therapeutic effect of IL-37 on IDD were evaluated in puncture-induced rat model using X-ray, Hematoxylin-Eosin, Safranin O-Fast Green (SO), and alcian blue staining. RESULTS We found IL-37 expression decreased in the IDD process. In vitro, IL-37 suppressed SASP factors level and senescence phenotype in IL-1β treated NPCs. In vivo, IL-37 alleviated the IDD progression in the puncture-induced rat model. Mechanistic studies demonstrated that IL-37 inhibited IDD progression by downregulating NF-κB pathway activation in NPCs by activating IL-1R8. CONCLUSION The present study suggests that IL-37 delays the IDD development through the IL-1R8/NF-κB pathway, which suggests IL-37 as a promising novel target for IDD therapy.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is closely related to several contributing factors, especially amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregation. Bioorthogonal reactions provide a general, facile, and robust route for the localization and derivatization of Aβ-targeted agents. Herein, a pair of chiral alkyne-containing metallohelices (ΛA and ΔA) were demonstrated to enantioselectively target and modulate Aβ aggregation, which has been monitored in triple-transgenic AD model mice and proved to improve cognitive function. Compared with its enantiomer ΔA, ΛA performed better in blocking Aβ fibrillation, relieving Aβ-triggered toxicity, and recovering memory deficits in vivo. Moreover, clickable ΛA could act as a functional module for subsequent visualization and versatile modification of amyloid via bioorthogonal reaction. As a proof-of-concept, thioflavin T, tacrine, and magnetic nanoparticles were conjugated with ΛA to realize Aβ photo-oxygenation, acetylcholinesterase inhibition, and Aβ clearance, respectively. This proof-of-principle work provided new insights into the biolabeling and bioconjugation of multifunctional metallosupramolecules through click reactions for AD therapy.

Abstract
Pd-catalyzed bioorthogonal bond cleavage reactions are widely used and frequently reported. It is circumscribed by low reaction efficiency, which may encumber the therapeutic outcome when applied to physiological environments. Herein, an NIR-II light promoted integrated catalyst (CuS@PDA/Pd) (PDA - polydopamine) is designed to accelerate the reaction efficiency and achieve a dual bioorthogonal reaction for combination therapy. As NIR-II light can penetrate deeply into tissue, the Pd-mediated cleavage reaction can be promoted both in vitro and in vivo by the photothermal properties of CuS, beneficial to orthotopic 4T1 tumor treatment. In addition, CuS also catalyzes the synthesis of active resveratrol analogs by the CuAAC reaction. These simultaneously produced anticancer agents result in enhanced antitumor cytotoxicity in comparison to the single treatments. This is a fascinating study to devise an integrated catalyst boosted by NIR-II light for dual bioorthogonal catalysis, which may provide the impetus for efficient bioorthogonal combination therapy in vivo.

Abstract
As a burgeoning bioorthogonal reaction, the fluoride-mediated desilylation is capable of prodrug activation. However, due to the reactions lack of cell selectivity and unitary therapy modality, this strongly impedes their biomedical applications. Herein, we construct a cancer cell-selective biomimetic metal-organic framework (MOF)-F platform for prodrug activation and enhanced synergistic chemodynamic therapy (CDT). With cancer cell membranes camouflage, the designed biomimetic nanocatalyst displays preferential accumulation to homotypic cancer cells. Then, pH-responsive nanocatalyst releases fluoride ions and ferric ions. For activation of our designed prodrug tert-butyldimethyl silyl (TBS)-hydroxycamptothecin (TBSO-CPT), fluoride ions can desilylate TBS and cleave the designed silyl ether linker to synthesize the OH-CPT (10-hydroxycamptothecin) drug molecule, which effectively kills cancer cells. Intriguingly, the bioorthogonal-synthesized OH-CPT drug upregulates intracellular H2O2 by activating nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase (NOX), amplifying the released iron induced Fenton reaction for synergistic CDT. Both in vitro and in vivo studies demonstrate our strategy presents a versatile fluoride-activated bioorthogonal catalyst for cancer cell-selective drug synthesis. Our work may accelerate the biomedical applications of fluoride-activated bioorthogonal chemistry.

Abstract
We present improved germanium-based constraints on sub-GeV dark matter via dark matter-electron (χ-e) scattering using the 205.4 kg·day dataset from the CDEX-10 experiment. Using a novel calculation technique, we attain predicted χ-e scattering spectra observable in high-purity germanium detectors. In the heavy mediator scenario, our results achieve 3 orders of magnitude of improvement for m_{χ} larger than 80 MeV/c^{2} compared to previous germanium-based χ-e results. We also present the most stringent χ-e cross-section limit to date among experiments using solid-state detectors for m_{χ} larger than 90 MeV/c^{2} with heavy mediators and m_{χ} larger than 100 MeV/c^{2} with electric dipole coupling. The result proves the feasibility and demonstrates the vast potential of a new χ-e detection method with high-purity germanium detectors in ultralow radioactive background.

Abstract
A search for exotic dark matter (DM) in the sub-GeV mass range has been conducted using 205 kg day data taken from a p-type point contact germanium detector of the CDEX-10 experiment at China's Jinping underground laboratory. New low-mass dark matter searching channels, neutral current fermionic DM absorption (χ+A→ν+A) and DM-nucleus 3→2 scattering (χ+χ+A→ϕ+A), have been analyzed with an energy threshold of 160 eVee. No significant signal was found; thus new limits on the DM-nucleon interaction cross section are set for both models at the sub-GeV DM mass region. A cross section limit for the fermionic DM absorption is set to be 2.5×10^{-46} cm^{2} (90% C.L.) at DM mass of 10 MeV/c^{2}. For the DM-nucleus 3→2 scattering scenario, limits are extended to DM mass of 5 and 14 MeV/c^{2} for the massless dark photon and bound DM final state, respectively.

Abstract
Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction has been widely regarded as a promising avenue in bioorthogonal chemistry. The emerging heterogeneous copper catalysts have been developed with a series of exciting applications such as in situ activation of prodrugs because of their excellent stability and biocompatibility. However, due largely to the complex biophysical barriers in living organisms, most synthetic bioorthogonal drugs cannot penetrate deep pathological tissues. Especially in biofilm-associated infections, the biofilms severely block the penetration of traditional antimicrobial agents and increase the antibiotic resistance, which makes it extremely difficult to eliminate the biofilms. Inspired by self-propelled biological motors, such as enzymes, herein, we develop a NIR light-controllable carbonaceous nanocalabash (CNC) motor catalyst with good biocompatibility for active targeted synthesis of drugs inside the biofilms as a robust general-purpose bioorthogonal platform. Under the NIR laser, the CNC motor catalysts display a rapid autonomous motion and generate active molecules in the deep biofilm layers, removing the biofilms and eradicating the shielded bacteria. Our work will shed light on developing a robust bioorthogonal platform for active targeted synthesis of drugs in deep-layered living systems.

Abstract
Abstract
Importance
Total arterial revascularization (TAR), the complete avoidance of saphenous vein grafting (SVG) in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), is advocated based on the superior conduit durability and resistance against atherosclerosis. However, the low adoption rate of TAR indicates a high level of controversy.
Objective
To compare long-term survival between TAR and conventional CABG involving SVG.
Data sources
A comprehensive literature search was conducted through digital databases including MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials from the inception to May 2021.
Study selection
The inclusion criteria were randomized clinical trials, or propensity-score balanced or multivariable-adjusted observational studies with a sample size of at least 100 patients in each arm, isolated CABG, comparing TAR (SVG=0) vs. non-TAR (SVG≥1), and inclusion of all-cause mortality.
Data extraction and synthesis
Two reviewers performed independent extraction following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Pooled hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated with random-effect and fixed-effect models using generic inverse variance weighting. Individual patient time-to-event data were reconstructed to create an overall Kaplan-Meier survival function for matched studies. Sensitivity analyses were performed according to the risk of bias, matching status, and source of HR.
Main outcomes and measures
The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality.
Results
A total of 23 studies (100,314 patients), all with a retrospective observational design, were identified. The weighted mean follow-up time was 8.8 years post-operatively. Total arterial revascularization was associated with greater freedom from all-cause mortality than non-TAR (HR, 0.77, 95% CI, 0.71 to 0.84, p<0.001). There was evidence of low heterogeneity (I2=45%) across studies. Low publication bias was observed. Leave-one-out influence analysis and sensitivity analyses produced consistent results. Cochrane Collaboration signaling domains showed no critical risk of bias.
Conclusions and relevance
This meta-analysis found superior late survival associated with total arterial revascularization. Further randomized clinical trials are needed.

Abstract
The Surface Eroding Thermocouple (SETC) is a robust diagnostic utilized in DIII-D to provide fast, edge-localized modes (ELMs) resolved heat flux measurements, in particular in geometric regions that are too shadowed for traditional infrared thermography. In order to further investigate the power dissipation in the divertor region, a combination of flush-mounted and recessed SETCs was developed to assess the effect on surface heating from non-charged particles at the divertor target. Utilizing the Divertor Materials Evaluation System sample exposure platform, the first demonstration of the feasibility of using this new method to distinguish between the heat flux from charged particles and that from neutrals and radiative heating was achieved. This paper details the process of using the combination of flush SETCs and recessed SETCs to measure the multiple heat flux components at the divertor target and further discusses how to determine two important ratios, α (ratio of heat flux from charged particles deposit on recessed SETC to that deposit on flush SETC) and β (ratio of heat flux from non-charged particles deposit on recessed SETC to that deposit on flush SETC), in the estimation of the heat flux from non-charged particle sources. Using a time dependent ratio α, it was found that ∼50% of the total incident heat flux is attributable to the non-charged particles in the fully detached open divertor in DIII-D. Finally, the new application of similar SETC diagnostics in the Small Angle Slot divertor with a V-like configuration and partial tungsten coated surface (SAS-VW) is also introduced.
