Abstract
We present the first measurement of charge-dependent directed flow in Cu+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV. The results are presented as a function of the particle transverse momentum and pseudorapidity for different centralities. A finite difference between the directed flow of positive and negative charged particles is observed that qualitatively agrees with the expectations from the effects of the initial strong electric field between two colliding ions with different nuclear charges. The measured difference in directed flow is much smaller than that obtained from the parton-hadron-string-dynamics model, which suggests that most of the electric charges, i.e., quarks and antiquarks, have not yet been created during the lifetime of the strong electric field, which is of the order of, or less than, 1 fm/c.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the expression of Ki-67, epithelial cadherin (E-cadherin), mesothelin, and their correlations with clinicopathological features of serous borderline ovarian tumors (SBOTs). MATERIALS AND METHODS Immunohistochemistry was conducted to investigate the expression of a cellular proliferation-related factor (Ki-67) and metastasis-related factors (E-cadherin and mesothelin) in 41 cases of SBOTs, 30 benign ovarian tumor tissues, and 30 malignant ovarian tumor tissues. RESULTS The results showed that the expression rate of Ki-67 (46.3%) in SBOTs was higher than that in benign tumors (6.7%), but lower than that in ovarian carcinomas (80%). SBOTs significantly differed from benign ovarian tumors (p < 0.01) and carcinoma (p < 0.01). The positive expression rate of Ki-67 was significantly correlated with FIGO stage and peritoneal implantation of SBOTs (p < 0.01). The expression rate of E-cadherin was significantly lower in ovarian carcinomas (56.7%) than in SBOTs (80.5%) and benign ovarian tumors (90%; p < 0.05). The mesothelin expression in ovarian carcinomas and SBOTs significantly differed from that in benign ovarian tumors (p < 0.01). The positive expression rate of mesothelin was related to the serum CA125 level (p < 0.05). The expression of Ki-67 was positively correlated with the expression of E-cadherin and mesothelin in SBOTs. CONCLUSION SBOTs generally behave in a benign manner. Ki-67, E-cadherin, and mesothelin may play an important role in the oncogenesis and progression of SBOT. Patients with Ki-67 and mesothelin overexpression and low E-cadherin expression should be followed up.

Abstract
Purpose Ranibizumab, an anti-vascular endothelial growth factor, and dexamethasone, a corticosteroid, have been shown to be effective in treating macular oedema secondary to retinal vein occlusion (RVO) (central RVO (CRVO) and branch RVO (BRVO)). Their real-world usage, however, has yet to be compared. We therefore evaluated ophthalmology visits for both drugs using US patient-level data. Methods The IMS Health Real-World Data Medical Claims database was used to identify treatment-naive patients receiving ranibizumab intravitreal injections or dexamethasone intravitreal implants between June 2010 and February 2014 who had 12 months of follow-up data. The primary outcome measure was the mean number of all ophthalmology visits for the two drugs in patients with CRVO and BRVO. Secondary outcome measures included a comparison of treatment visits, non-treatment visits, and time intervals between visits. Results Overall, 2822 patients received ranibizumab injections (CRVO, 1178; BRVO, 1644) and 365 received dexamethasone implants (CRVO, 191; BRVO, 174). The mean number (SD) of all ophthalmology visits was higher for patients receiving ranibizumab injections than for those receiving dexamethasone implants (CRVO: 7.2 (3.6) vs 6.2 (3.1), P<0.001; BRVO: 7.1 (3.4) vs 6.3 (3.1), P=0.016). Conclusions Patients with RVO receiving ranibizumab injections had a mean of approximately one more visit to their ophthalmologist in the first 12 months of treatment than those treated with dexamethasone implants. The visit burden is therefore not substantially different and physicians should focus on the clinical benefits of these drugs when evaluating treatment options for RVO.

Abstract
The role of estrogen in inducing chemoresistance is not yet fully understood. The objective of this study was to observe the relationship between estrogen levels and cellular response to chemotherapeutic drugs in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and to reveal the potential mechanisms involved. Cell viability was analyzed after pre-treating NSCLC cells with different levels of estrogen (E2), followed by treatment with an anti-tumor drug for 48 h. The roles of various estrogen receptors (ERs) were examined in vitro by blocking the activity of each ER individually. The ER pathway was further confirmed in NSCLC tissues. It was found that 10-1000 nM E2 resulted in a decreased cellular response to DDP in H1650 cells compared to the use of cisplatin alone (P < 0.05). However, this result was not demonstrated in H1299 cells, which lack p53. Both ERa and ERb were associated with E2-induced cisplatin chemoresistance, though they had opposite functions. p53 expression did not correlate with the expression of ERa or ERb individually. However, a statistically significant correlation between p53 expression and ERa to ERb mRNA ratio was observed (P < 0.001, R = -0.676). These findings suggest that E2-induced DDP chemoresistance depends on the balance between ERa and ERb expression and the p53 pathway.

Abstract
We present the measurement of the transverse single-spin asymmetry of weak boson production in transversely polarized proton-proton collisions at sqrt[s]=500 GeV by the STAR experiment at RHIC. The measured observable is sensitive to the Sivers function, one of the transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution functions, which is predicted to have the opposite sign in proton-proton collisions from that observed in deep inelastic lepton-proton scattering. These data provide the first experimental investigation of the nonuniversality of the Sivers function, fundamental to our understanding of QCD.

Abstract
We present results from a harmonic decomposition of two-particle azimuthal correlations measured with the STAR detector in Au+Au collisions for energies ranging from sqrt[s_{NN}]=7.7 to 200 GeV. The third harmonic v_{3}^{2}{2}=⟨cos3(ϕ_{1}-ϕ_{2})⟩, where ϕ_{1}-ϕ_{2} is the angular difference in azimuth, is studied as a function of the pseudorapidity difference between particle pairs Δη=η_{1}-η_{2}. Nonzero v_{3}^{2}{2} is directly related to the previously observed large-Δη narrow-Δϕ ridge correlations and has been shown in models to be sensitive to the existence of a low viscosity quark gluon plasma phase. For sufficiently central collisions, v_{3}^{2}{2} persist down to an energy of 7.7 GeV, suggesting that quark gluon plasma may be created even in these low energy collisions. In peripheral collisions at these low energies, however, v_{3}^{2}{2} is consistent with zero. When scaled by the pseudorapidity density of charged-particle multiplicity per participating nucleon pair, v_{3}^{2}{2} for central collisions shows a minimum near sqrt[s_{NN}]=20 GeV.

Abstract
We present high precision measurements of elliptic flow near midrapidity (|y|<1.0) for multistrange hadrons and ϕ meson as a function of centrality and transverse momentum in Au+Au collisions at center of mass energy √[sNN]=200 GeV. We observe that the transverse momentum dependence of ϕ and Ω v2 is similar to that of π and p, respectively, which may indicate that the heavier strange quark flows as strongly as the lighter up and down quarks. This observation constitutes a clear piece of evidence for the development of partonic collectivity in heavy-ion collisions at the top RHIC energy. Number of constituent quark scaling is found to hold within statistical uncertainty for both 0%-30% and 30%-80% collision centrality. There is an indication of the breakdown of previously observed mass ordering between ϕ and proton v2 at low transverse momentum in the 0%-30% centrality range, possibly indicating late hadronic interactions affecting the proton v2.

Abstract
We report the observation of transverse polarization-dependent azimuthal correlations in charged pion pair production with the STAR experiment in p^{↑}+p collisions at RHIC. These correlations directly probe quark transversity distributions. We measure signals in excess of 5 standard deviations at high transverse momenta, at high pseudorapidities η>0.5, and for pair masses around the mass of the ρ meson. This is the first direct transversity measurement in p+p collisions.

Abstract
Collisions between prolate uranium nuclei are used to study how particle production and azimuthal anisotropies depend on initial geometry in heavy-ion collisions. We report the two- and four-particle cumulants, v_{2}{2} and v_{2}{4}, for charged hadrons from U+U collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=193 GeV and Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV. Nearly fully overlapping collisions are selected based on the energy deposited by spectators in zero degree calorimeters (ZDCs). Within this sample, the observed dependence of v_{2}{2} on multiplicity demonstrates that ZDC information combined with multiplicity can preferentially select different overlap configurations in U+U collisions. We also show that v_{2} vs multiplicity can be better described by models, such as gluon saturation or quark participant models, that eliminate the dependence of the multiplicity on the number of binary nucleon-nucleon collisions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There is no effective therapy for blast-induced hearing loss in the clinic. The present report summaries our case series with using nerve growth factor in the treatment of patients with various blast-induced hearing loss. PATIENTS AND METHODS This retrospective study analyzed the clinical outcomes of 21 patients (33 ears) seen in our Outpatient Service Clinic who were treated with nerve growth factor (NGF) by intramuscular injection for 10 days. The pure tone audiometry changes before and after NGF treatments were measured for five frequencies. RESULTS Among the 21 patients with blast-induced hearing loss (33 ears) treated with 10-d NGF injection, the mean value of pure tone audiometry for the 5 frequencies for all the 33 ears after NGF treatment was significantly improved (p = 0.01). Three patients (6 ears) had hearing improved in different degrees, with average hearing being recovered by 15 dB HL. The total effective rate of the treatment was 18%. CONCLUSIONS Nerve growth factor can be used to treat blast-induced hearing loss in clinic. The key to clinical success is early treatment; the efficacy on the patients with late treatment (more than one-month after injury is poor).

Abstract
We report a new measurement of the midrapidity inclusive jet longitudinal double-spin asymmetry, A_{LL}, in polarized pp collisions at center-of-mass energy sqrt[s]=200 GeV. The STAR data place stringent constraints on polarized parton distribution functions extracted at next-to-leading order from global analyses of inclusive deep-inelastic scattering (DIS), semi-inclusive DIS, and RHIC pp data. The measured asymmetries provide evidence at the 3σ level for positive gluon polarization in the Bjorken-x region x>0.05.

Abstract
Bacterial infections are known to alter glucose metabolism within tissues via mechanisms of inflammation. We conducted this study to examine whether insulin response genes are differentially expressed in gingival tissues, comparing samples from experimental gingivitis and periodontitis subjects to those from healthy individuals. Total RNA was extracted from gingival biopsies from 26 participants: 8 periodontally healthy, 9 experimental gingivitis, and 9 periodontitis subjects. Gene expression patterns were evaluated with a polymerase chain reaction array panel to examine 84 candidate genes involved with glucose metabolism, insulin resistance, and obesity. Array data were evaluated with a t test adjusted by the false discover rate (P < 0.05), and ingenuity pathway analysis was performed for statistical testing of pathways. Although tissue samples were not sufficient to enable protein quantification, we confirmed the upregulation of the key gene using lipopolysaccharide-stimulated primary gingival epithelial cells by Western blot. The mRNA expression patterns of genes that are associated with insulin response and glucose metabolism are markedly different in experimental gingivitis subjects compared with healthy controls. Thirty-two genes are upregulated significantly by at least 2-fold, adjusted for false discover rate (P < 0.05). Periodontitis subjects show similar but attenuated changes in gene expression patterns, and no genes meet the significance criteria. Ingenuity pathway analysis demonstrates significant activation of the carbohydrate metabolism network in experimental gingivitis but not in periodontitis. G6PD protein increases in response to lipopolysaccharide stimulation in primary gingival epithelial cells, which is in the same direction as upregulated mRNA in tissues. Acute gingival inflammation may be associated with tissue metabolism changes, but these changes are not evident in chronic periodontitis. This study suggests that acute gingival inflammation may induce localized changes that modify tissue insulin/glucose metabolism.

Abstract
Interleukin (IL)-1β is now emerging as a critical cytokine in the pathogenesis of T helper type 17 (Th17)-mediated skin diseases, including psoriasis. Psoriatic keratinocytes are a major source of IL-1β; however, the mechanisms triggering IL-1β processing remain unknown. Recently, an acute-phase protein serum amyloid A (SAA) has been identified as a danger signal that triggers inflammasome activation and IL-1β secretion. In this study, we detected increased SAA mRNA and protein expression in psoriatic epidermis. In cultured keratinocytes, SAA up-regulated the expression of pro-IL-1β and secretion of mature IL-1β. On the transcriptional level, blocking Toll-like receptor-2 (TLR-2), TLR-4 or nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) attenuated SAA-induced expression of IL-1β mRNA. SAA up-regulated caspase-1 and NACHT, LRR and PYD domains-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) expression in keratinocytes. Inhibiting caspase-1 activity and silencing NLRP3 decreased IL-1β secretion, confirming NLRP3 as the SAA-responsive inflammasome on the post-transcriptional level. The mechanism of SAA-triggered NLRP3 activation and subsequent IL-1β secretion was found to involve the generation of reactive oxygen species. Finally, the expression of SAA by keratinocytes was up-regulated by IL-17A. Taken together, our results indicate that keratinocyte-derived SAA triggers a key inflammatory mediator, IL-1β, via NLRP3 inflammasome activation, providing new potential targets for the treatment of this chronic skin disease.

Abstract
We present ΛΛ correlation measurements in heavy-ion collisions for Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV using the STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider. The Lednický-Lyuboshitz analytical model has been used to fit the data to obtain a source size, a scattering length and an effective range. Implications of the measurement of the ΛΛ correlation function and interaction parameters for dihyperon searches are discussed.
