Abstract
Background Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a frequent microvascular complication of diabetes. Glomerular mesangial cell (MC) hypertrophy occurs at the initial phase of DN and plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of DN. Given the role of long non coding RNA (lncRNA) in regulating MC hypertrophy and extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation, our aim was to identify functional lncRNAs during MC hypertrophy. Methods Here, an lncRNA, C920021L13Rik (L13Rik for short), was identified to be up-regulated in DN progression. The expression of L13Rik in DN patients and diabetic mice was assessed using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), and the function of L13Rik in regulating HG-induced MC hypertrophy and ECM accumulation was assessed through flow cytometry and western blotting analysis. Results The L13Rik levels were significantly increased while the miR-2861 levels were decreased in the peripheral blood of DN patients, the renal tissues of diabetic mice, and HG-treated MCs. Functionally, both L13Rik depletion and miR-2861 overexpression effectively reduced HG-induced cell hypertrophy and ECM accumulation. Mechanistically, L13Rik functioned as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to sponge miR-2861, resulting in the de-repression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1B (CDKN1B), a gene known to regulate cell cycle and MC hypertrophy. Conclusions Collectively, the current results demonstrate that up-regulated L13Rik is correlated with DN and may be a hopeful therapeutic target for DN.

Determination of Spin-Parity Quantum Numbers for the Narrow Structure near the pΛ[over ¯] Threshold in e^{+}e^{-}→pK^{-}Λ[over ¯]+c.c. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2023; 131:151901. [PMID: 37897776 DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.131.151901] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2023] [Revised: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 09/15/2023] [Indexed: 10/30/2023]
Abstract
A narrow structure in the pΛ[over ¯] system near the mass threshold, named as X(2085), is observed in the process e^{+}e^{-}→pK^{-}Λ[over ¯] with a statistical significance greater than 20σ. Its spin and parity are determined for the first time to be J^{P}=1^{+} in an amplitude analysis, with a statistical significance greater than 5σ over other quantum numbers (0^{-},1^{-} and 2^{+}). The pole positions of X(2085) are measured to be M_{pole}=(2084_{-2}^{+4}±9) MeV and Γ_{pole}=(58_{-3}^{+4}±25) MeV, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones are systematic. The analysis is based on the study of the process e^{+}e^{-}→pK^{-}Λ[over ¯] and uses the data samples collected with the BESIII detector at the center-of-mass energies sqrt[s]=4.008, 4.178, 4.226, 4.258, 4.416, and 4.682 GeV with a total integrated luminosity of 8.35 fb^{-1}.

Abstract
The branching fraction of the rare decay Λ_{b}^{0}→Λ(1520)μ^{+}μ^{-} is measured for the first time, in the squared dimuon mass intervals q^{2}, excluding the J/ψ and ψ(2S) regions. The data sample analyzed was collected by the LHCb experiment at center-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV, corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 9 fb^{-1}. The result in the highest q^{2} interval, q^{2}>15.0 GeV^{2}/c^{4}, where theoretical predictions have the smallest model dependence, agrees with the predictions.

Precise Measurement of the e^{+}e^{-}→D_{s}^{*+}D_{s}^{*-} Cross Sections at Center-of-Mass Energies from Threshold to 4.95 GeV. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2023; 131:151903. [PMID: 37897771 DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.131.151903] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2023] [Revised: 08/16/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/30/2023]
Abstract
The process e^{+}e^{-}→D_{s}^{*+}D_{s}^{*-} is studied with a semi-inclusive method using data samples at center-of-mass energies from threshold to 4.95 GeV collected with the BESIII detector operating at the Beijing Electron Positron Collider. The Born cross sections of the process are measured for the first time with high precision in this energy region. Two resonance structures are observed in the energy-dependent cross sections around 4.2 and 4.4 GeV. By fitting the cross sections with a coherent sum of three Breit-Wigner amplitudes and one phase-space amplitude, the two significant structures are assigned masses of (4186.8±8.7±30) and (4414.6±3.4±6.1) MeV/c^{2}, widths of (55±15±53) and (122.5±7.5±8.1) MeV, where the first errors are statistical and the second ones are systematic. The inclusion of a third Breit-Wigner amplitude is necessary to describe a structure around 4.79 GeV.

Abstract
Using 7.33 fb^{-1} of e^{+}e^{-} collision data taken with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider, we report the first experimental study of the purely leptonic decay D_{s}^{*+}→e^{+}ν_{e}. Our data contain a signal of this decay with a statistical significance of 2.9σ. The branching fraction of D_{s}^{*+}→e^{+}ν_{e} is measured to be (2.1_{-0.9_{stat}}^{+1.2}±0.2_{syst})×10^{-5}, corresponding to an upper limit of 4.0×10^{-5} at the 90% confidence level. Taking the total width of the D_{s}^{*+} [(0.070±0.028) keV] predicted with the radiative D_{s}^{*+} decay from the lattice QCD calculation as input, the decay constant of the D_{s}^{*+} is determined to be f_{D_{s}^{*+}}=(214_{-46_{stat}}^{+61}±44_{syst}) MeV, corresponding to an upper limit of 354 MeV at the 90% confidence level.

Abstract
Rapid and in situ profiling of volatile metabolites from body fluids represents a new trend in cancer diagnosis and classification in the early stages. We report herein an on-chip strategy that combines an array of conductive nanosensors with a chaotic gas micromixer for real-time monitoring of volatiles from urine and for accurate diagnosis and classification of urinary tract cancers. By integrating a class of LEGO-inspired microchambers immobilized with MXene-based sensing nanofilms and zigzag microfluidic gas channels, it enables the intensive intermingling of volatile organic chemicals with sensor elements that tremendously facilitate their ion-dipole interactions for molecular recognition. Aided with an all-in-one, point-of-care platform and an effective machine-learning algorithm, healthy or diseased samples from subpopulations (i.e., tumor subtypes, staging, lymph node metastasis, and distant metastasis) of urinary tract cancers can be reliably fingerprinted in a few minutes with high sensitivity and specificity. The developed detection platform has proven to be a noninvasive supplement to the liquid biopsies available for facile screening of urinary tract cancers, which holds great potential for large-scale personalized healthcare in low-resource areas.

Association of Cardiac Dose with Cardiac Events and Survival for Locally Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (LA-NSCLC) Treated with Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) in the Era of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor (ICI) Consolidation. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2023; 117:S169-S170.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) To assess the association of cardiac dose with post-cCRT cardiac events and survival among patients (pts) with LA-NSCLC after adoption of ICI consolidation, modern radiotherapy (RT) techniques, and data-driven cardiac constraints. MATERIALS/METHODS This single-institution, multi-site retrospective study included 335 pts with LA-NSCLC treated with definitive cCRT (60-70 Gy) from October 2017 to December 2021. Pts were evaluated for ICI consolidation. Cardiac dose constraints included heart volume receiving ≥50 Gy (V50) <25% and mean heart dose (MHD) <20 Gy. Heart, left anterior descending artery (LAD), and left ventricle were autocontoured, manually reviewed, and edited. 21 dosimetric parameters (mean dose, max dose, and min dose to the hottest x% volume [Dx%(Gy); x from 5-95 in 5% intervals]) for each were extracted, as well as LAD V15. Baseline cardiovascular disease (bCVD) was defined as heart failure (HF), coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease, or cerebrovascular disease. Primary endpoint was post-cCRT major adverse cardiac events (MACE), defined as acute coronary syndrome, HF hospitalization/urgent visit, coronary revascularization, or cardiac death. Secondary endpoints were grade ≥3 cardiac events (CTCAE v5.0), overall survival (OS), cancer specific mortality (CSM), and other cause mortality (OCM). Competing risk regression was used for MACE and grade ≥3 cardiac events, and Cox regression for OS, CSM, and OCM. RESULTS Median age was 68 years, 139 (41%) had bCVD, and 225 (67%) received consolidation ICI. Proton therapy was used in 117 (35%), intensity-modulated RT in 199 (59%), and 3D conformal RT in 19 (6%). Median MHD was 8.7 Gy (IQR 4.6-14.4) and median LAD V15 1.4% (IQR 0-22). Median follow-up was 39.5 months. 35 MACE events occurred; 1- and 2-year cumulative incidence (CI) were 4.2% and 9.5%. No cardiac dosimetric parameter associated with MACE after adjusting for bCVD and age (e.g., MHD sHR 0.98/Gy, 95% CI 0.93-1.03, p = 0.43) or within the following 3 subgroups: no bCVD, photon therapy, and ICI consolidation. 87 grade ≥3 cardiac events occurred; 1- and 2- year CI were 12.6% and 20.4%. Heart dose was not associated with grade ≥3 cardiac events after adjusting for bCVD, ECOG, and BMI (e.g., MHD sHR 1.00/Gy, 95% CI 0.97-1.03, p = 0.85) or within the 3 aforesaid subgroups. 183 OS events occurred, including 125 CSM and 58 OCM events. Multiple cardiac dosimetric parameters associated with worse OS on multivariable analysis (e.g., LAD V15 HR 1.01/%, 95% CI 1.00-1.02, p = 0.003), driven by associations with CSM (LAD V15 HR 1.02/%, p<0.001) but not OCM (LAD V15 HR 1.00/%, p = 0.73). Median OS was worse for LAD V15 ≥10% (22.2 vs 35.1 months, p = 0.004). CONCLUSION Among pts with LA-NSCLC treated with cCRT after adoption of ICI consolidation, modern RT techniques, and cardiac constraints, post-cCRT cardiac events were common but showed no association with cardiac dose. Cardiac dose associated with OS, driven by an association with CSM and not OCM, which may not reflect cardiac toxicity.

Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2023; 117:e301.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) and total rectal mesenteric resection (TME) are the primary treatment options for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC), but their efficacy varies. This study aimed to investigate the impact of anemia on the tumor response of patients with LARC receiving preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. MATERIALS/METHODS This study was a retrospective analysis of clinical and pathological data from patients with LARC who underwent nCRT and TME from January 2019 to May 2022 at a single institution. The tumor response was evaluated based on the tumor regression grade (TRG) and T-stage change of the primary tumor. Hemoglobin concentration was measured and graded to determine the presence of anemia. Anemia was categorized into four groups based on the hemoglobin levels: mild anemia (90-120 g/L), moderate anemia (60-90 g/L), severe anemia (30-60 g/L), and extreme anemia (less than 30 g/L). Finally, tumor response was quantified histologically using the AJCC 8th edition tumor regression grading system for rectal cancer and pre- and post-treatment T-grading. RESULTS A total of 88 patients with LARC who received nCRT and TME were included in the study, with 17 females and 71 males. Of these patients, 9 were moderately anemic and 37 were mildly anemic. The radiation therapy regimen was administered at a dose of 1.8-2 Gy per fraction, five times a week, for a total dose of 45-50.4 Gy. Capecitabine chemotherapy was also administered orally (825 mg/m2, twice a day) on the days of radiation therapy. Other chemotherapy regimens included XELOX and mFOLFOX6. The TRG was significantly different in anemic patients compared to non-anemic patients (P = 0.039). Only 2 out of 46 anemic patients (4%) showed an excellent response (TRG0), while 8 out of 42 non-anemic patients (19%) showed an excellent response (p = 0.043). There was also a significant difference in the incidence of anemia between cT3 and cT4 stages (p = 0.048), with 44% of cT3 patients and 67% of cT4 patients being anemic. The number of patients with poor response (TRG2-3) decreased as the degree of anemia decreased, but no significant difference was found. The incidence of TRG3 was 11% in patients with moderate anemia and 7% in non-anemic patients (P = 0.863). There was no significant difference in postoperative pathological T-stage between anemic and non-anemic patients. 89% of anemic patients had a pathological stage of ypT3 or less after chemoradiotherapy, while 95% of non-anemic patients did (P = 0.167). The pre- and post-treatment pathological staging did not significantly differ between anemic and non-anemic patients. 67% of anemic patients had descending tumors, while 59.5% of non-anemic patients had descending tumors (p = 0.509). CONCLUSION Patients with LARC who have normal hemoglobin concentrations during nCRT have better tumor regression compared to patients with anemia. Additionally, the incidence of anemia was higher among patients with advanced T-stage prior to treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of type 2 diabetes is increasing rapidly, particularly among younger age groups. Estimates suggest that people with diabetes die, on average, 6 years earlier than people without diabetes. We aimed to provide reliable estimates of the associations between age at diagnosis of diabetes and all-cause mortality, cause-specific mortality, and reductions in life expectancy. METHODS For this observational study, we conducted a combined analysis of individual-participant data from 19 high-income countries using two large-scale data sources: the Emerging Risk Factors Collaboration (96 cohorts, median baseline years 1961-2007, median latest follow-up years 1980-2013) and the UK Biobank (median baseline year 2006, median latest follow-up year 2020). We calculated age-adjusted and sex-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for all-cause mortality according to age at diagnosis of diabetes using data from 1 515 718 participants, in whom deaths were recorded during 23·1 million person-years of follow-up. We estimated cumulative survival by applying age-specific HRs to age-specific death rates from 2015 for the USA and the EU. FINDINGS For participants with diabetes, we observed a linear dose-response association between earlier age at diagnosis and higher risk of all-cause mortality compared with participants without diabetes. HRs were 2·69 (95% CI 2·43-2·97) when diagnosed at 30-39 years, 2·26 (2·08-2·45) at 40-49 years, 1·84 (1·72-1·97) at 50-59 years, 1·57 (1·47-1·67) at 60-69 years, and 1·39 (1·29-1·51) at 70 years and older. HRs per decade of earlier diagnosis were similar for men and women. Using death rates from the USA, a 50-year-old individual with diabetes died on average 14 years earlier when diagnosed aged 30 years, 10 years earlier when diagnosed aged 40 years, or 6 years earlier when diagnosed aged 50 years than an individual without diabetes. Using EU death rates, the corresponding estimates were 13, 9, or 5 years earlier. INTERPRETATION Every decade of earlier diagnosis of diabetes was associated with about 3-4 years of lower life expectancy, highlighting the need to develop and implement interventions that prevent or delay the onset of diabetes and to intensify the treatment of risk factors among young adults diagnosed with diabetes.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Although adding consolidative stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) to systemic therapy improves survival in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the optimal timing of SBRT remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the clinical outcome of early and delayed SBRT to primary lung lesions of advanced NSCLC patients treated with first-line systemic therapy. MATERIALS/METHODS We identified patients with advanced NSCLC who were suitable to receiveSBRT for the primary lung tumors after first-line systemic therapy. All eligible patients were treated with first-line systemic therapy and SBRT for their primary lung lesions. Early SBRT group was defined as patients who received SBRT for their primary lung tumor at the maximal response of systemic therapy. Delayed SBRT group was defined as patients who received SBRT after the occurrence of oligoprogression in primary lung tumor. The primary endpoints were progression-free survival 1 (PFS1, time from start of first-line systemic therapy to disease progression) and PFS2 (time from start of first-line systemic therapy to disease progression after SBRT). Overall survival (OS) and adverse effects (AEs) were secondary endpoints. A two-sided P value of 0.05 was considered statistically significant. All of the statistical analyses were performed with statistical software. RESULTS A total of184 patients with advanced NSCLC treated with SBRT for primary tumors were screened, and 49 patients were eligible for enrollment in this study. The median age of the entire cohort was 66 years (range, 37-80 years), and 34 (69.4%) patients were male. Thirty-four patients (69.4%) were treated by target therapy and 15 (30.6%) were treated by chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Of the 49 eligible patients, 28(57.1%) received early SBRT to lung primary tumor and 21(42.9%) received delayed SBRT to lung primary tumor. The early SBRT group showed a significantly prolonged PFS1 as compared with the delayed SBRT group (mPFS1: 30 months vs. 8 months, P<0.001). The median PFS2 of the early SBRT group was longer than that of the delayed SBRT group, but the difference between the two groups did not achieve a statistical significance (mPFS2: 42 months vs. 23 months, P = 0.303). Median OS of both groups has not reached. No severe toxicities (≥grade 3) were observed in early SBRT group and only one patient in the delayed SBRT group experienced grade 3 radiation pneumonitis. CONCLUSION Early SBRT to the primary lung lesion significantly improved PFS and is a new potentially effective and tolerable treatment option for patients with advanced NSCLC who had stable disease during first-line systemic therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Verification of plan (VP) has been part of our pre-treatment workflow for treatment isocenter verification. Currently, our center uses simulator for VP procedure for all our patients before the treatment. We would like to investigate if SGRT could be a good substitute for VP procedure to simplify our pre-treatment workflow. MATERIALS/METHODS In Group A (A-c, A-t, A-a), 20 patients of each treatment site (cranial, thorax and abdomen) were selected randomly. Patients did not go through VP procedure. During the first fraction of treatment, the therapists were guided by SGRT system (Vision RT, UK) and aligned the patient to 3mm and 1°using a standard region of interest (ROI). First CBCT was taken as a reference to customize the ROI for better suitability. Next, the patient was re-aligned to 1mm and 1°using the new ROI. Second CBCT was acquired, and 6 degrees of freedoms shifts were recorded. In Group B (B-c, B-t, B-a), 20 patients of each treatment site (cranial, thorax and abdominal) that were assigned for VP over the same period as Group A patients. Group B patients were aligned based on the skin markings drawn during VP procedure. CBCTs were taken at the first fraction of treatment and shifts were recorded. RESULTS A total of 60 CBCT images were analyzed for each group of patients. The absolute mean and standard deviations were shown in Table 1. The results indicated that Group A is superior, if not comparable, to Group B. Table 1: The absolute mean and standard deviations of first fraction of CBCT positioning errors for Group A and B patients. CONCLUSION With appropriate ROI, SGRT is a good or superior substitute for plan verification procedure. Localization verification can be done during day one of treatment which ease the pre-treatment workflow to both patients and clinical team. Analysis of customized ROI will be further studied in the future.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Dual-energy CT can be used to optimize radiation treatment. Recently, deep learning has been demonstrated to synthesize high-energy CT images from low-energy ones for dose reduction and lower CT system burden. As the state-of-the-art deep learning architecture, the computation burden of Transformer increases quadratically with the feature size, making the model training resource-demanding or even infeasible. Here, we introduce an efficient transformer for the balance between CT image synthesis quality and computational burden. MATERIALS/METHODS The model is a U-shape deep neural network with encoders and decoders built by Transformer blocks. The model input is low-energy 100kVp CT image and the output is high-energy 140kVp one. Each block has a Self Channel Correlation Unit (SCCU) and a Self Spatial Attention Unit (SSAU). Local shortcuts are applied for both units. Under-sampling operation achieved by pixel shuffling is used to obtain multi-scale feature maps, and the transformer block is applied on each feature scale. Symmetric skip connection sending features from shallow layers to deep layers, thus an additional 1 × 1 convolution is used for feature fusion in each decoder. In a SCCU, the feature is first mapped to one Query, one Key, and one Value. Then the Query and the Key tensors perform matrix multiplication to compute cross covariance of feature channels. The channel correlation score can be obtained by normalization of the covariance, and it is used to weight the Value tensor. As a result, the model complexity only increases linearly with the feature size. Besides the channel weighting, we enhance spatial information using SSAU, where the feature is mapped to two tensors. One tensor after activation is used to point-wisely calibrate another tensor. Additional Transformer blocks are cascaded to the last decoder for feature refinement. Because of the structure similarity of low- and high-energy CT images, a global shortcut is used to ease model training. Clinical iodine contrast-enhanced dual energy CT image datasets of 19 patients are used in this study. The dual-energy scanning is performed by a SOMATOM Definition Flash DECT scanner. We split the datasets into training dataset of 15 patients, validation dataset of 1 patient, and testing dataset of 3 patients. The image size is 512 × 512 with pixel size 0.5 × 0.5 mm2. RESULTS The U-Net model with 1.95M parameters and 44.87G FLOPS achieved the averaged PSNR value of 44.55 dB (s.t.d. 1.34) and averaged RMSE value of 0.0060 (s.t.d. 0.001). In comparison, our efficient Transformer with 1.408M parameters and 31.375G FLOPS achieved the averaged PSNR value of 44.78 dB (s.t.d. 1.37) and RMSE value of 0.0059 (s.t.d. 0.001), demonstrating our model has better performance with small model size and less computation. CONCLUSION The efficient Transformer model allows high-resolution CT image synthesis with small model scale and computation burden from low-energy CT image.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) This study aimed to determine the relationship between tumor regression grading (TRG) and lymph node regression grading (LRG) after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). MATERIALS/METHODS The study was a retrospective analysis of the clinical data of LARC patients who underwent preoperative nCRT at one institution. A total of 101 rectal cancer patients who received nCRT and underwent total rectal mesenteric excision (TME) were included. Pathologists independently assessed the pathological response of the primary tumor and lymph nodes (LN) to nCRT using TRG and LRG, respectively. The highest LRG score for each patient was defined as LRGmax, and LRGsum was the overall tumor burden of all LNs in the specimen. RESULTS The study included 101 LARC patients who underwent nCRT and TME. The patient population consisted of 65 males and 36 females with an average age of 54.86 years (range 20-81 years), of which 68 were aged 60 years or younger and 33 were older than 60. The radiotherapy treatment plan consisted of 1.8-2Gy per dose, administered 5 times per week for a total dose of 45-50.4Gy, along with oral capecitabine chemotherapy (825 mg/m2, bid) on the day of radiation therapy. The chemotherapy treatment plan included XELOX, mFOLFOX6, and FOLFOX4. The cTNM stage of the tumor before surgery was cT2 in 2 cases, cT3 in 63 cases, and cT4 in 36 cases. Eight cases were cN0 and 93 were cN+. After surgery, the ypTNM stage was T0 in 19 cases, T1 in 4 cases, T2 in 27 cases, T3 in 45 cases, and T4 in 6 cases. The N stage was N0 in 76 cases, N1 in 20 cases, and N2 in 5 cases. TRG was 0 in 17 cases (16.8%), 1 in 15 cases (14.9%), 2 in 61 cases (60.4%), and 3 in 8 cases (7.9%). LRGmax scores were 0 in 66 cases (65.3%), 1 in 17 cases (16.8%), 2 in 5 cases (5.0%), 3 in 3 cases (3.0%), 4 in 5 cases (5.0%), and 5 in 5 cases (5.0%). LRGsum scores were ≤3 in 85 cases (84.2%), 4-9 in 11 cases (10.9%), and ≥10 in 5 cases (5.0%). Correlation analysis showed that LRGmax was significantly correlated with TRG, ypT, and ypN (P = 0.038, P = 0.015, P < 0.01), with correlation coefficients of 0.184, 0.212, and 0.626, respectively. There was no significant correlation between LRGmax and cT and cN+. Similarly, LRGsum was significantly correlated with TRG, ypT, and ypN (P = 0.022, P = 0.002, P < 0.01) with correlation coefficients of 0.212, 0.276, and 0.707, respectively. There was no significant correlation between LRGsum and cT and cN. The results of our study indicate a significant correlation between LRG and TRG (P = 0.022). Additionally, LRG was found to be positively correlated with the ypT and ypN stages of the primary tumor and lymph nodes post-surgery, with correlation coefficients of 0.276 and 0.707, respectively (P = 0.002 and P<0.01). No significant correlations were observed between LRG and cT and cN+ stages. CONCLUSION Our findings demonstrate a significant association between LRG and TRG, as well as a positive correlation between LRG and the ypT and ypN stages of the primary tumor and lymph nodes following surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Although shift work has been reported as having a link to dementia, evidence remains inconsistent, and a comprehensive dose-response meta-analysis of the association is still lacking. We therefore conducted this meta-analysis to explore the association between shift work and the risk of dementia. STUDY DESIGN Systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis. METHODS PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases were systematically searched. Fixed or random-effects models were used to estimate the summary relative risks (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs). Generalized least squares regression was used to estimate dose-response associations, and restricted cubic splines were used to examine possible linear or non-linear associations. RESULTS Five articles (10 studies) with 72,999 participants and 23,067 cases were eventually included in the meta-analysis. The summary RRs and 95% CIs of dementia risk with shift work and night shift work versus daytime work were 1.13 (95% CI: 1.05-1.21, I2 = 46.70%) and 1.13 (95% CI: 1.03-1.24, I2 = 9.20%), respectively. The risk of dementia increased by 1% (RR = 1.01, 95% CI: 1.01-1.02, I2 = 41.3%) with each 1-year increase in the duration of shift work. We found a non-linear dose-response association between the duration of shift work and the risk of dementia (Pnon-linearity = 0.006). Though the shape of the curve was steeper with the duration of shift work <7 years, the increase was more gradual after 7 years. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that shift work may be a risk factor for future dementia and that controlling the length of shift work is a feasible measure that may contribute to prevent dementia.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) To determine which factors predict for worsening erectile function after highly conformal, modestly hypofractionated radiotherapy to the prostate. MATERIALS/METHODS All patients who received 60Gy in 20 fractions, volumetric modulated arc therapy to the prostate across 4 centers over 9 years were included in this study. The provincial electronic medical record was interrogated to identify any new prescriptions for erectile dysfunction (ED) medication, any change in prescription of ED medication or any permanent discontinuance of ED medication persisting beyond 6 months post completion of any androgen deprivation therapy. The penile bulb, penile crux and penile shaft structures were retrospectively contoured. A Youden receiver-operator-curve analysis, logistic regression, and neural network based interpretable machine learning analysis were then used to determine dependencies between worsening ED and clinical factors including mean doses to these structures. RESULTS Two-hundred-twelve patients with median (inter-quartile-range) follow-up of 3.6 (3.2-4.4) years were identified. Median age was 72 (67-76) years. 104 (49%) patients received androgen deprivation therapy. Prior to treatment, 52 (25%) patients were on ED medication: 20 (9%) on sildenafil, 28 (13%) on tadalafil and 4 (8%) on vardenafil. Median PTV volume was 158.9 (129.8-192.1) cc. Median penile bulb, penile crux and penile shaft volumes were 4.7 (3.6-6.2) cc, 6.5 (5.1-8.5) cc and 93.3 (80.6-106.2) cc, respectively. PTV V95 was 99.8 (99.5-99.9)%. Mean doses to penile bulb, penile crux and penile shaft were 2094.8 (1306.2-3036.3) cGy, 2094.8 (1306.2-3036.3) cGy and 444.4 (313.2-650.5), respectively. Fifty-nine (28%) patients had a worsening of ED after treatment: 25 (12%) started a new ED medication, 6 (3%) had a prescription change and 28 (13%) stopped ED medication. On univariate analyses pretreatment use of ED medication predicted for worsening ED: odds ratio (OR) yes vs no: 10.2 (5.0 - 20.8; p<0.001). A trend towards mean dose to penile bulb [OR ≤2343.9 vs >2343.9: 1.7 (0.9-3.2; p = 0.08)] predicting for worsening ED was observed. Mean doses to penile crux [OR <1725.8 vs > 1725.8: 2.6 (1.3-5.2; p = 0.005)] and penile shaft [OR ≤344.9 vs >344.9: 5.2 (2.2-12.2; p<0.001)] predicted for worsening ED. Use of androgen deprivation therapy, and age at time of radiotherapy were not predictive of worsening ED. On multivariate analysis, only mean dose to penile shaft [OR ≤344.9 vs >344.9: 6.3 (1.9-20.3; p = 0.002)] and pretreatment use of ED medication [OR yes vs no: 11.1 (5.3-23.2; p<0.001)] predicted for worsening ED. A neural network analysis suggested that penile shaft mean dose and pre-treatment ED medication use are the most important factors in predicting worsening ED. CONCLUSION In this limited analysis, pre-treatment use of ED medication and mean dose to penile shaft predicted for worsening ED after treatment with modestly hypofractionated radiotherapy for prostate cancer.

Abstract
The incidence of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and diabetes mellitus (DM) is increasing year by year. Clinical findings show that Banxia Xiexin Decoction (BXD) can be combined to treat MCI and DM. However, the principle and mechanism of BXD in treating MCI and DM remain unclear. In this study, to explore the common mechanism of BXD in treating MCI and DM by using the method of network pharmacology. Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database (TCMSP) was used to screen the main active components of BXD, as well as to predict and screen its potential targets. Using Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM), Therapeutic Target Database (TTD), DisGeNET, GeneCards to select the target proteins of two diseases, and intersecting the drug target and the disease target to obtain the common target of drug diseases, which is imported into cytoscape software to draw the network diagram of "drug components-target diseases" and the interaction network diagram between the common target proteins. According to the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) database, we analyzed the common targets using two methods, gene ontology Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) biological pathway enrichment analysis and Gene Ontology (GO) function enrichment analysis, as well as studied the interaction mechanism of the two diseases, with the results validated using molecular docking. A total of 267 main active components of BXD were screened, together with the two diseases shared 233 common targets. The top five key targets identified by the topological analysis were TP53, AKT1, STAT3, TNF, and MAPK3. Go enrichment results indicated that it was primarily related to response to drug, extracellular space, enzyme binding, RNA polymerase II transcription factor activity, ligand-activated sequence-specific DNA binding. t KEGG enrichment pathway analysis identified 20 significant pathways, the majority of which are AGE-RAGE signaling pathways in diabetic complications, lipid and atherosclerosis, fluid shear stress and atherosclerosis, IL-17 signaling pathway, TNF signaling pathway, and so on. The results of molecular docking revealed that the key components of BXD, baicalein, licochalcone a, quercetin, and naringenin, had strong binding ability with core targets TP53, AKT1, STAT3, TNF, MAPK3. BXD can treat MCI and DM by multi-targets and multi-channels,and plays a role of "homotherapy for heteropathy" mainly through response to drug, positive regulation of gene expression, extracellular space and enzyme binding and other ways.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Proton-acoustic (PA) image has shown great potential to provide real-time 3D dose verification of proton therapy. However, the PA image quality suffers from severe limited view artifacts, which significantly impairs its accuracy for dose verification. In this study, we developed a hybrid-supervised deep learning method for PA reconstruction to address the limited-view issues. MATERIALS/METHODS Our method consists of two stages. In the first stage, a transformer-based network was proposed to reconstruct initial pressure maps from protoacoustic signals. The network was first trained using supervision by the iteratively reconstructed pressure map and then fine-tuned using transfer learning and self-supervision based on the data fidelity constraint. In the second stage, the PA image was further enhanced by a 3D U-net. The final PA images were converted to dose maps using conversion coefficients derived from CT images. Data from 126 prostate cancer patients treated by proton therapy were collected under an IRB protocol and were split into 86 and 40 patients for model training and testing, respectively. Data of each patient contains the planning CT scan, the corresponding clinical treatment plan, and the dose map calculated by commercial software. The radiofrequency signals were generated by performing proton acoustic simulation based on CT images and the ground truth pressure map derived from the treatment plan. An ultrasound detector matrix with 64 × 64 size and 500kHz central frequency was simulated under the perineum to acquire the signals in the prostate area. In the testing results, the method's accuracy was evaluated using Root-mean-squared-error (RMSE) and structural-similarity-index-measure (SSIM) between the reconstructed and ground truth pressure map and dose distribution. RESULTS Testing results showed that the reconstructed pressure map achieved an average RMSE/SSIM of 0.0292/0.96, demonstrating excellent 3D information with details. Dose maps derived from the pressure map achieved an average RMSE/SSIM of 0.018/0.99 with a gamma index of 94.7% and 95.7% for 1%/3 mm and 1%/5 mm criteria compared to the ground truth dose maps. The reconstruction time was 6s, which can be further reduced using GPU. CONCLUSION Our study achieves start-of-the-art performance in the challenging task of direct reconstruction from limited-view radiofrequency signals, demonstrating the great promise of PA imaging as a highly efficient and accurate tool for in-vivo 3D proton dose verification. Such high-precision 3D online dose verification can substantially reduce the range uncertainties of proton therapy to significantly improve its precision and outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Patients (pts) with LA-NSCLC treated with concurrent chemoradiation (cCRT) and ICI consolidation are at high risk for treatment-related toxicities and subsequent hospitalization. We hypothesized that PBT is associated with a reduction in acute unplanned hospitalizations as compared to IMRT in the era of ICI consolidation. MATERIALS/METHODS This single institution, multi-site retrospective study included consecutive pts with LA-NSCLC treated with definitive cCRT with either PBT or IMRT from October 2017 to December 2021. Pts were evaluated for consolidative ICI. Primary endpoint was unplanned treatment-related hospitalization within 90 days of first radiation (RT) treatment. Secondary endpoints included grade 3+ pneumonitis, grade 3+ esophagitis, PFS and OS. Logistic regression was used to assess associations with 90-day hospitalization. Competing risk regression was used for grade 3+ pneumonitis and esophagitis, and Cox regression for PFS and OS. RESULTS A total of 316 pts were included: 117 (37%) received PBT and 199 (63%) IMRT. Median age was 68.5 yrs; median RT dose 66.6 Gy (IQR 65.9-70.0). PBT group was older (median 71.1 vs 67.2 yrs, p<0.005) and had a higher Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) (median 4 vs 3, p = 0.02). There was no significant difference in ECOG, smoking pack-years, T stage, N stage, target volume size, or receipt of ICI consolidation (66.7% vs 68.3%, p = 0.76). PBT group had lower mean heart dose (5.9 vs 10.8 Gy, p<0.001), LAD V15 (0 vs 6 %, p = 0.001), mean lung dose (14.7 vs 15.7 Gy, p <0.008) and effective dose to immune circulating cells (median 3.7 vs 4.9 Gy, p<0.001) but not mean esophagus dose. PBT was associated with fewer unplanned 90-day hospitalizations (23.9% vs 34.7%); which persisted on multivariable analysis (OR 0.52, 95% CI 0.30-0.90, p = 0.02) after adjusting for CCI, smoking pack-years, T4 tumors and target volume. Reasons for hospitalization in PBT and IMRT groups included progression (1.7% vs 1.5%), definite/probable toxicity from cCRT (11.1% vs 18.6%), possible toxicity from cCRT (7.7% vs 12.6%) or unrelated to cCRT (3.4% vs 2.0%). There was no significant difference between PBT or IMRT groups in G3+ pneumonitis (1-year 6.0% vs 9.1%, p = 0.49), G3+ esophagitis (1-year 6.0% vs 6.5%, p = 0.71), PFS (median 14.4 vs 15.1 months, p = 0.69), or OS (median 34.2 vs 29.4 months, p = 0.41). CONCLUSION Among pts with LA-NSCLC treated with cCRT in the era of ICI consolidation, PBT was associated with fewer acute unplanned hospitalizations compared to IMRT. There was no difference in G3+ pneumonitis, G3+ esophagitis, PFS or OS.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) For patients (pts) with LA-NSCLC treated with chemoradiation and consolidation ICI (CRT+ICI), the patterns of failure (POF) and volume of disease progression (PD) are not well characterized. The primary objective of this study was to classify POFs, the frequency of low volume relapse (LVR), and identify pts eligible for further ablative therapy. MATERIALS/METHODS We retrospectively identified pts with unresectable stage III NSCLC treated with CRT+ICI between October 2017 and December 2021 at a single institution. Site of first failure was classified as locoregional (LRF), distant (DF), or synchronous LRF + DF. Any LRF was subclassified as in field (IFF; PD within 90% isodose line), marginal (MF; within 50% isodose line) or out of field (OOF; outside of 50% isodose line). LVR was defined as < 3 discrete sites of PD in any number or location of organs. Pts with distant LVR were considered to have oligometastatic relapse. Ablative candidates were defined as pts with < 3 discrete sites of PD amenable to further RT or surgery. Cumulative incidence of PD was calculated with death as a competing risk. Progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated from the end of RT and assessed via Kaplan Meier. Multivariable Cox modeling was used to assess correlation of pt characteristics and time-to-event outcomes. Logistic regression was used to predict variables associated with LVR. RESULTS A total of 229 pts received CRT+ICI. Median follow up was 39 months and 119 pts experienced PD. Median PFS and OS were 18.4 and 34.5 months, respectively. Of pts with PD, 71 (60%) had DF, 28 (24%) had LRF+DF, and 20 (17%) had LRF. Of pts with any LRF, 28 (57%) had IFF, 10 (21%) had MF, and 10 (21%) had OOF. Estimated 1-year cumulative incidence of LRF, DF, and LRF+DF were 9.3% (95% CI 4.5-16), 39% (95% CI 31-48), and 19% (95% CI 12-27), respectively. A total of 63 (53%) pts had LVR. In pts with LVR, 19 (30%) had isolated thoracic relapse and 44 (69%) had oligometastatic relapse. Most oligometastatic disease was intracranial (22 metastases, 44%). Pts with LVR had a longer median OS vs pts with high volume relapse (37.4 vs 15.2 months, p<0.001). At time of PD, 56 (47%) pts were candidates for further ablative therapies. Subsequent anticancer therapies were local therapy alone (35%), local and systemic therapy (16%), systemic therapy alone (36%), or no therapy (13%). On multivariable analysis, LVR (HR 0.39; 95% CI 0.21-0.73, p = 0.003) and longer receipt of ICI (HR 0.96; 95% CI 0.95-0.98; p<0.001) were associated with improved survival while squamous histology (HR 2.26; 95% CI 1.18-4.32; p = 0.039) was associated with worse survival. Longer receipt of ICI was the only variable predictive for the development of LVR (OR 1.03; 95% CI 1.01-1.05; p = 0.004). CONCLUSION This is the largest real-world series reporting POF after CRT+ICI for stage III NSCLC. Approximately half of pts experience LVR and are candidates for further ablative therapy. Further data are needed to define optimal treatment strategies for pts with LVR after CRT+ICI.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) RNA editing is a common posttranslational mechanism for generating genomic diversity by modifying selected RNA sequences without altering the genome. A new understanding of cancer therapy can be enhanced by the discovery of ADAR1 in the control of signal transduction pathways. However, the study of the biological effects of ADAR1 in radioresistance of esophageal cancer is not very deep. MATERIALS/METHODS The TCGA data sets were used to explore the correlations between ADAR1 and prognosis in esophageal cancer. Two pairs of ADAR1 gene siRNA fragments (siADAR1-1 and siADAR1-2) were designed and transiently transfected into KYSE410 cells and KYSE410-RT cells. The expression of ADAR1 was detected by RT-PCR and WB. Colony formation assay was used to evaluate the radiosensitivity. Apoptosis was measured using a flow cytometric apoptosis assay. Furthermore, transcriptome sequencing was performed to elucidate the pathways regulated by ADAR1. RESULTS In this study, we found that ADAR1 is overexpressed in esophageal tumors and is associated with poor prognosis in bioinformatics analysis. Colony formation experiment showed that siRNA-mediated depletion of ADAR1 in KYSE410 cells could inhibit cell proliferation and reduce radiosensitivity significantly. Consistently results were showed in KYSE410-RT cells. Mechanism studies revealed loss of ADAR1 induced cell apoptosis and radiotherapy could enhance this process. Transcriptomic data indicated that ADAR1 could regulate apoptosis through the NF-kB pathway. CONCLUSION RNA editing was found to be involved in the regulation of radiosensitivity of esophageal cancer and loss of ADAR1 can cause cell apoptosis though NF-kB pathway. A better understanding of A-to-I RNA editing and its oncogenic mechanisms may facilitate the development of radiotherapy in esophageal cancer.

Abstract
Two new excited states, Ω_{c}(3185)^{0} and Ω_{c}(3327)^{0}, are observed in the Ξ_{c}^{+}K^{-} invariant-mass spectrum using proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb^{-1}. Five previously observed excited Ω_{c}^{0} states are confirmed, namely Ω_{c}(3000)^{0}, Ω_{c}(3050)^{0}, Ω_{c}(3065)^{0}, Ω_{c}(3090)^{0}, and Ω_{c}(3119)^{0}. The masses and widths of these seven states are measured with the highest precision to date.

Abstract
Objectives Gliomas and brain metastases (Mets) are the most common brain malignancies. The treatment strategy and clinical prognosis of patients are different, requiring accurate diagnosis of tumor types. However, the traditional radiomics diagnostic pipeline requires manual annotation and lacks integrated methods for segmentation and classification. To improve the diagnosis process, a gliomas and Mets computer-aided diagnosis method with automatic lesion segmentation and ensemble decision strategy on multi-center datasets was proposed. Methods Overall, 1,022 high-grade gliomas and 775 Mets patients' preoperative MR images were adopted in the study, including contrast-enhanced T1-weighted (T1-CE) and T2-fluid attenuated inversion recovery (T2-flair) sequences from three hospitals. Two segmentation models trained on the gliomas and Mets datasets, respectively, were used to automatically segment tumors. Multiple radiomics features were extracted after automatic segmentation. Several machine learning classifiers were used to measure the impact of feature selection methods. A weight soft voting (RSV) model and ensemble decision strategy based on prior knowledge (EDPK) were introduced in the radiomics pipeline. Accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the classification performance. Results The proposed pipeline improved the diagnosis of gliomas and Mets with ACC reaching 0.8950 and AUC reaching 0.9585 after automatic lesion segmentation, which was higher than those of the traditional radiomics pipeline (ACC:0.8850, AUC:0.9450). Conclusion The proposed model accurately classified gliomas and Mets patients using MRI radiomics. The novel pipeline showed great potential in diagnosing gliomas and Mets with high generalizability and interpretability.

Abstract
An amplitude analysis of B^{0}→J/ψϕK_{S}^{0} decays is performed using proton-proton collision data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9 fb^{-1}, collected with the LHCb detector at center-of-mass energies of 7, 8, and 13 TeV. Evidence with a significance of 4.0 standard deviations of a structure in the J/ψK_{S}^{0} system, named T_{ψs1}^{θ}(4000)^{0}, is seen, with its mass and width measured to be 3991_{-10}^{+12} _{-17}^{+9} MeV/c^{2} and 105_{-25}^{+29} _{-23}^{+17} MeV, respectively, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The T_{ψs1}^{θ}(4000)^{0} state is likely to be the isospin partner of the T_{ψs1}^{θ}(4000)^{+} state, previously observed in the J/ψK^{+} system of the B^{+}→J/ψϕK^{+} decay. When isospin symmetry for the charged and neutral T_{ψs1}^{θ}(4000) states is assumed, the signal significance increases to 5.4 standard deviations.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of modified Bikini approach periacetabular osteotomy in the treatment of developmental hip dysplasia under 50 years of age. Methods: The clinical data of 39 patients with developmental hip dysplasia who underwent periacetabular osteotomy in the Department of Orthopedics, Guizhou Provincial People's Hospital from June 2016 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Among them, 20 patients (21 hips) underwent the improved Bikini approach (study group) and 19 patients (20 hips) underwent the improved Smith-Petersen approach (control group).In the study group, there were 3 males and 17 females, aged(M(IQR))27.5 (14.3) years (range:11 to 44 years).In the control group, there were 2 males and 17 females, aged 27.5 (19.3) years (range:17 to 47 years).Both groups were sutured in the same manner by the same physician.Incision length, operation time, intraoperative blood loss and complications were recorded.X-ray images, anterior central marginal angle (ACE), lateral central marginal Angle (LCE) and acetabulum tilt angle (Tonnis AI) were measured before and after the operation.The coverage rate of acetabulum to femoral head (AHI) was measured and calculated, and the healing time was observed.Harris Hip score, International Hip score (IHOT)-12 and visual analogue scale (VAS) were recorded before and after surgery.Vancouver Scar Scale (VSS) score and patient and observer scar assessment scale (POSAS) score were recorded 12 months after surgery.The independent sample t test,Wilcoxon rank sum test, χ2 test or Fisher exact test were used to compare the clinical efficacy between the two groups. Results: All patients successfully completed the operation.There was no significant difference in operation time and intraoperative blood loss between the two groups (all P>0.05).The incision length of the study group was smaller than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (10.5(5.0)cm vs.15.0(3.0),W=309.000,P=0.007).Patients were followed up for (19.1±11.1) months (range:12 to 60 months).Femoral nerve stretching injury occurred in 2 cases and sciatic branch fracture occurred in 1 case in the study group, all of which recovered to normal at 3 months follow-up, while no corresponding injury occurred in the control group.Lateral femoral cutaneous nerve injury occurred in 3 cases in the study group and 2 cases in the control group.Delayed wound healing occurred in 1 case in each of the two groups, and both healed after re-operation debridement and suture.Pubic branch nonunion occurred in 4 patients in the study group and 5 patients in the control group.There were no serious complications such as sciatic nerve and femoral blood vessel injury between the 2 groups, and there was no statistical significance in the incidence of complications between the 2 groups (52.4%(11/21)vs.40.0%(8/20),χ2=0.631,P=0.427).The clinical healing time of the patient was (4.5±1.3) months after surgery (range:3.0 to 8.0 months).There were no significant differences in ACE, LCE, Tonnis AI and AHI between the 2 groups (all P>0.05).At the last follow-up, there were no significant differences in VAS,Harris hip score and IHOT-12 score between the two groups (all P>0.05).The incision scars in the study group were smaller than those in the control group, and the differences in VSS and POSAS were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusion: Compared with the improved Smith-Petersen approach, the improved Bikini approach has the same early clinical efficacy in the treatment of patients with developmental hip dysplasia under the age of 50, and has the advantages of smaller postoperative incision scars, more hidden and beautiful incision, and no serious complications, which is worthy of further study and promotion.
