Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-involuting congenital hemangiomas (NICHs) are fully formed vascular tumors at birth with distinctive clinical, radiologic, and histopathological profiles. In the literature, there is no effective therapy strategy for patients with NICH except surgery. Currently, no cell line or animal model exists for studying the mechanism of NICH and drug validation. We plan to construct a new strategy by constructing NICH organoids for further study. RESULT Here, we report a novel NICH organoid system construction and optimization process. Both HE and immunohistological staining exactly matched NICH tissue. We further performed transcriptome analysis to elucidate the characteristics of NICH organoids. Both NICH tissue and NICH organoids manifested similar trends in download sites. NICH organoids display novel features to new cells derived from organoids and show spectacular multiplication capacity. In the preliminary verification, we found that cells splitting from NICH organoids were human endothelial cells. Drug validation demonstrated that trametinib, sirolimus, and propranolol showed no inhibitory effects on NICH organoids. CONCLUSION Our data show that this new NICH-derived organoid faithfully captured the features of this rare vascular tumor. Our study will boost further research on the mechanism of NICH and drug filtering in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The nonsyndromic craniosynostosis is the most common of craniosynostoses in childhood. There are many treatments. We aim to treat 12 cases of nonsyndromic craniosynostosis via posterior cranial vault distraction osteogenesis combined with bilateral parietal distraction. METHODS Data of a total of 12 patients (7 boys and 5 girls) with nonsyndromic sagittal synostosis who underwent distraction osteogenesis between January 2015 and August 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Bilateral parietal bone flaps and posterior occipital flaps were designed and cut. Then, distraction device was placed, which was distracted at 5 days after surgery (twice per day, 0.4-0.6 mm/d, and lasting for 10-15 days). After 6 months of fixation, the secondary surgery was performed to remove the device. RESULTS The scaphocephaly was corrected, and the appearance was satisfactory. Postoperative follow-up time was 6 to 14 months, with an average of 10 months, and the mean CI was 63.2 and 78.25 before and after surgery, respectively; the mean anterior-posterior skull diameter was shortened (12.63 ± 3.47) mm, the transverse diameter of both temporal regions was lengthened (15.4 ± 4.18) mm, and the scaphocephalic deformity was significantly improved. There was no detachment or rupture of the extender postoperatively. No severe complications, such as radiation necrosis or intracranial infection, were observed. CONCLUSION Posterior cranial retraction combined with bilateral parietal distraction in children with nonsyndromic craniosynostosis, in which the proposed technique did not exhibit severe complications, and it is worthy of further promotion and application in clinical practice.

Abstract
Congenital fusion of the jaws (syngnathia) is a rare facial malformation with an unknown etiology. This disease may vary in severity with adhesion of soft tissue and bony fusion. It can be anterior fusion, unilateral or bilateral fusion, and complete fusion. The main problem of these patients is the difficulty of airway maintenance and feeding, and the most common postoperative complication is the relapse of bony fusion. Here, we report a young male patient with bony syngnathia, involving bilateral fusion of the ascending ramus and body of the mandible with the maxillary complex. We performed bone isolation by computer-assisted preoperative planning and used an insertional temporalis flap to fix the wound surface to prevent refusion of bone.

Abstract
We report on measurements of sequential ϒ suppression in Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV with the STAR detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) through both the dielectron and dimuon decay channels. In the 0%-60% centrality class, the nuclear modification factors (R_{AA}), which quantify the level of yield suppression in heavy-ion collisions compared to p+p collisions, for ϒ(1S) and ϒ(2S) are 0.40±0.03(stat)±0.03(sys)±0.09(norm) and 0.26±0.08(stat)±0.02(sys)±0.06(norm), respectively, while the upper limit of the ϒ(3S) R_{AA} is 0.17 at a 95% confidence level. This provides experimental evidence that the ϒ(3S) is significantly more suppressed than the ϒ(1S) at RHIC. The level of suppression for ϒ(1S) is comparable to that observed at the much higher collision energy at the Large Hadron Collider. These results point to the creation of a medium at RHIC whose temperature is sufficiently high to strongly suppress excited ϒ states.

Long-term outcomes of sirolimus treatment for kaposiform hemangioendothelioma: Continuing successes and ongoing challenges. Int J Cancer 2023.

Abstract
Treatment with sirolimus, an inhibitor of the mammalian target of rapamycin pathway, has improved the prognosis of patients with kaposiform hemangioendothelioma (KHE). However, the efficacy, durability and tolerability of long-term sirolimus treatment in patients with KHE have not been well elucidated. We performed efficacy and safety assessments based on more than 4.5 years of follow-up in patients receiving sirolimus therapy for KHE. One hundred sixty-seven patients were analyzed, including 102 (61.1%) patients with the Kasabach-Merritt phenomenon (KMP). Follow-up was conducted after a median of 56.0 months. A total of 154 (92.2%) patients had a durable response to sirolimus treatment. No difference in durable response was found between patients without KMP and patients with KMP (95.4% vs 90.2%; difference, 5.2%; 95% confidence interval [CI], -4.0% to 13.1%). Rebound growth occurred in 17.3% of patients upon sirolimus discontinuation. Early treatment discontinuation (odds ratio [OR]: 3.103; 95% CI: 1.529-6.299; P = .002) and mixed lesion type (OR: 2.271; 95% CI: 0.901-5.727; P = .047) were associated with tumor rebound growth. No KHE-related deaths occurred in this cohort. At the last follow-up, approximately 17.4% of patients had active disease and/or changes in body structures to a variable extent. Serious adverse events occurred most commonly during the first year of sirolimus therapy. Follow-up of almost 4.5 years demonstrated that the efficacy of sirolimus persisted over time and that long-term treatment with sirolimus was not associated with unacceptable cumulative toxicities. However, nonresponse, tumor relapse and long-term sequelae remained challenges despite intensified and prolonged sirolimus therapy.

Abstract
Most of the reported P-type pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) proteins play roles in organelle RNA stabilization and splicing. However, P-type PPRs involved in both RNA splicing and editing have rarely been reported, and their underlying mechanism remains largely unknown. Here, we report a rice floury endosperm22 (flo22) mutant with delayed amyloplast development in endosperm cells. Map-based cloning and complementation tests demonstrated that FLO22 encodes a mitochondrion-localized P-type PPR protein. Mutation of FLO22 resulting in defective trans-splicing of mitochondrial nad1 intron 1 and perhaps causing instability of mature transcripts affected assembly and activity of complex Ⅰ, and mitochondrial morphology and function. RNA-seq analysis showed that expression levels of many genes involved in starch and sucrose metabolism were significantly down-regulated in the flo22 mutant compared with the wild type, whereas genes related to oxidative phosphorylation and the tricarboxylic acid cycle were significantly up-regulated. In addition to involvement in splicing as a P-type PPR protein, we found that FLO22 interacted with DYW3, a DYW-type PPR protein, and they may function synergistically in mitochondrial RNA editing. The present work indicated that FLO22 plays an important role in endosperm development and plant growth by participating in nad1 maturation and multi-site editing of mitochondrial messager RNA.

Beam Energy Dependence of Fifth- and Sixth-Order Net-Proton Number Fluctuations in Au+Au Collisions at RHIC. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2023; 130:082301.

Abstract
We report the beam energy and collision centrality dependence of fifth and sixth order cumulants (C_{5}, C_{6}) and factorial cumulants (κ_{5}, κ_{6}) of net-proton and proton number distributions, from center-of-mass energy (sqrt[s_{NN}]) 3 GeV to 200 GeV Au+Au collisions at RHIC. Cumulant ratios of net-proton (taken as proxy for net-baryon) distributions generally follow the hierarchy expected from QCD thermodynamics, except for the case of collisions at 3 GeV. The measured values of C_{6}/C_{2} for 0%-40% centrality collisions show progressively negative trend with decreasing energy, while it is positive for the lowest energy studied. These observed negative signs are consistent with QCD calculations (for baryon chemical potential, μ_{B}≤110 MeV) which contains the crossover transition range. In addition, for energies above 7.7 GeV, the measured proton κ_{n}, within uncertainties, does not support the two-component (Poisson+binomial) shape of proton number distributions that would be expected from a first-order phase transition. Taken in combination, the hyperorder proton number fluctuations suggest that the structure of QCD matter at high baryon density, μ_{B}∼750 MeV at sqrt[s_{NN}]=3 GeV is starkly different from those at vanishing μ_{B}∼24 MeV at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV and higher collision energies.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features, treatment and prognosis of patients with RET fusion positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: A total of 1 089 NSCLCs were retrieved at Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan University from August 2018 to April 2020. In all cases, multiple gene fusion detection kits (fluorescent PCR method) were used to detect the gene status of RET, EGFR, ALK, ROS1, KRAS, BRAF and HER2; and immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of PD-L1 and mismatch repair related proteins. The correlation between RET-fusion and patients' age, gender, smoking history, tumor stage, grade, pathologic type, and PD-L1, mismatch repair related protein expression was analyzed. Results: There were 22 cases (2.02%) detected with RET fusion-positive in 1 089 NSCLC patients, in which 11 males and 11 females; and the median age was 63.5 years. There were 20 adenocarcinomas, including 11 acinar predominant adenocarcinoma (APA), five solid predominant adenocarcinoma (SPA) and four lepidic predominant adenocarcinoma (LPA); There were one case each of squamous cell carcinoma (non-keratinizing type) and sarcomatoid carcinoma (pleomorphic carcinoma). There were 6 and 16 patients with RET fusion-positive who were in stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ and Ⅲ-Ⅳ respectively, and 16 cases with lymph node metastasis, 11 cases with distant metastasis. Among RET fusion-positive cases, one was detected with HER2 co-mutation. The tumor proportion score of PD-L1≥1% in patients with RET fusion positive lung cancer was 54.5% (12/22). Defects in mismatch repair protein expression were not found in patients with RET fusion positive NSCLC. Four patients with RET fusions positive (two cases of APA and two cases of SPA) received pratinib-targeted therapy, and two showed benefits from this targeted therapy. Conclusions: The histological subtypes of RET fusions positive NSCLC are more likely to be APA or SPA. RET fusion-positive NSCLC patients are associated with advanced clinical stage, lymph node metastases, and they may benefit from targeted therapy with RET-specific inhibitors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infantile hemangioma (IH) is the most common tumor among infants, but the exact pathogenesis of IH is largely unknown. Our previous study revealed that glucose metabolism may play an important role in the pathogenesis of IH and that the inhibition of the glycolytic key enzyme phosphofructokinase-1 suppresses angiogenesis in IH. 6-Phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-biphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3) is a metabolic enzyme that converts fructose-6-bisphosphate to fructose-2,6-bisphosphate (F-2,6-BP), which is the most potent allosteric activator of the rate-limiting enzyme phosphofructokinase-1. This study was performed to explore the role of PFKFB3 in IH. METHODS Microarray analysis was performed to screen the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between proliferating and involuting IH tissues. PFKFB3 expression was examined by western blot and immunohistochemistry analyses. Cell migration, apoptosis and tube formation were analyzed. Metabolic analyses were performed to investigate the effect of PFKFB3 inhibition by PFK15. Mouse models were established to examine the effect of PFKFB3 inhibition in vivo. RESULTS PFKFB3 was identified as one of the most significant DEGs and was more highly expressed in proliferating IH tissues and hemangioma-derived endothelial cells (HemECs) than in involuting IH tissues and human umbilical vein endothelial cells, respectively. PFKFB3 inhibition by PFK15 suppressed HemEC glucose metabolism mainly by affecting glycolytic metabolite metabolism and decreasing the glycolytic flux. Moreover, PFK15 inhibited HemEC angiogenesis and migration and induced apoptosis via activation of the apoptosis pathway. Treatment with the combination of PFK15 with propranolol had a synergistic inhibitory effect on HemECs. Moreover, PFKFB3 knockdown markedly suppressed HemEC angiogenesis. Mechanistically, inhibition of PFKFB3 suppressed the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and induced apoptotic cell death. More importantly, the suppression of PFKFB3 by PFK15 or shPFKFB3 led to markedly reduced tumor growth in vivo. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that PFKFB3 inhibition can suppress IH angiogenesis and induce apoptosis. Thus, targeting PFKFB3 may be a novel therapeutic strategy for IH.

A deleterious Sar1c variant in rice inhibits export of seed storage proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum. PLANT MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 2023; 111:291-307.

Abstract
We identified a dosage-dependent dominant negative form of Sar1c, which confirms the essential role of COPII system in mediating ER export of storage proteins in rice endosperm. Higher plants accumlate large amounts of seed storage proteins (SSPs). However, mechanisms underlying SSP trafficking are largely unknown, especially the ER-Golgi anterograde process. Here, we showed that a rice glutelin precursor accumulation13 (gpa13) mutant exhibited floury endosperm and overaccumulated glutelin precursors, which phenocopied the reported RNAi-Sar1abc line. Molecular cloning revealed that the gpa13 allele encodes a mutated Sar1c (mSar1c) with a deletion of two conserved amino acids Pro134 and Try135. Knockdown or knockout of Sar1c alone caused no obvious phenotype, while overexpression of mSar1c resulted in seedling lethality similar to the gpa13 mutant. Transient expression experiment in tobacco combined with subcellular fractionation experiment in gpa13 demonstrated that the expression of mSar1c affects the subcellular distribution of all Sar1 isoforms and Sec23c. In addition, mSar1c failed to interact with COPII component Sec23. Conversely, mSar1c competed with Sar1a/b/d to interact with guanine nucleotide exchange factor Sec12. Together, we identified a dosage-dependent dominant negative form of Sar1c, which confirms the essential role of COPII system in mediating ER export of storage proteins in rice endosperm.

[PMID: 36776335 PMCID: PMC9909561 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1095852] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Accepted: 01/13/2023] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective Numerous studies focusing on sedentary behavior (SB) and physical activity (PA) in the context of cancer have been reported in recent years. We analyzed and visualized studies on SB and PA in patients with cancer over the last 20 years using scientometric methods, to provide insights on gaps and deficiencies in the literature, and to inform future research guidelines. Methods All relevant studies in the field from 2001 to October 2022 were reviewed using bibliometric tools, including VOSviewer, Bibliometric online analysis platform, and biblioshiny, to determine the most influential countries, institutions, journals, and authors. We explored current research hotpots and potential research trends, based on keyword clustering and dynamic changes. Our research focuses on PA, SB, and cancer across the entire cancer continuum, from primary prevention to treatment to cancer survivorship. Results Scientometric analysis identified 4,382 relevant manuscripts on SB and PA in the context of cancer, with a 10-fold increase in articles over the past 20 years. The United States, Canada, and Australia were the most influential countries. The journal, Supportive Care in Cancer, had the highest number of publications, while Clinical Oncology had the highest H-index. K.S. Courneya was the most influential author in this field, with the highest number of publications, total citations, and H-index. Keyword analysis revealed that current research is focused on PA and SB in patients with breast cancer, quality of life, and aerobic exercise. Future frontiers include cancer prehabilitation programs and cardiorespiratory fitness, and remote intervention and social support. Conclusion By using bibliometrics, we conducted a comprehensive review of SB and PA in cancer-related studies. The current research focused on exercise and sedentariness in breast cancer patients and the role of PA in improving quality of life in survivorship. Emerging research foci were generally around cancer prehabilitation programs and remote intervention issues for PA. In addition, some publication deficits are noted: studies of PA and SB in less common cancers; the recommended doses and intensities of exercise for cancer; the timing of interventions for prehabilitation and the establishment of individualized exercise protocols. These deficiencies align with the needs for future research topics.

Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15020511. [PMID: 36672460 PMCID: PMC9856274 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15020511] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2022] [Revised: 01/09/2023] [Accepted: 01/11/2023] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
In recent decades, the rapid development of radiotherapy has dramatically increased the cure rate of malignant tumors. Heavy-ion radiotherapy, which is characterized by the "Bragg Peak" because of its excellent physical properties, induces extensive unrepairable DNA damage in tumor tissues, while normal tissues in the path of ion beams suffer less damage. However, there are few prognostic molecular biomarkers that can be used to assess the efficacy of heavy ion radiotherapy. In this study, we focus on non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) radiotherapy and use RNA sequencing and bioinformatic analysis to investigate the gene expression profiles of A549 cells exposed to X-ray or carbon ion irradiation to screen the key genes involved in the stronger tumor-killing effect induced by carbon ions. The potential ceRNA network was predicted and verified by polymerase chain amplification, western blotting analysis, colony formation assay, and apoptosis assay. The results of the experiments indicated that lncRNA EBLN3P plays a critical role in inhibiting carbon ion-induced cell proliferation and inducing apoptosis of NSCLC cells. These functions were achieved by the EBLN3P/miR-144-3p/TNPO1 (transportin-1) ceRNA network. In summary, the lncRNA EBLN3P functions as a ceRNA to mediate lung cancer inhibition induced by carbon ion irradiation by sponging miR-144-3p to regulate TNPO1 expression, indicating that EBLN3P may be a promising target for increasing the treatment efficacy of conventional radiotherapy for NSCLC.

Front Neurosci 2023; 16:1050772. [PMID: 36703998 PMCID: PMC9871937 DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2022.1050772] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
The study aimed to investigate the neurovascular coupling abnormalities in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) and their associations with clinical manifestations. Twenty qualified acute Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (A-LHON, disease duration ≤ 1 year), 29 chronic Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (C-LHON, disease duration > 1 year), as well as 37 healthy controls (HCs) were recruited. The neurovascular coupling strength was quantified as the ratio between regional homogeneity (ReHo), which represents intrinsic neuronal activity and relative cerebral blood flow (CBF), representing microcirculatory blood supply. A one-way analysis of variance was used to compare intergroup differences in ReHo/CBF ratio with gender and age as co-variables. Pearson's Correlation was used to clarify the association between ReHo, CBF, and neurovascular coupling strength. Furthermore, we applied linear and exponential non-linear regression models to explore the associations among ReHo/CBF, disease duration, and neuro-ophthalmological metrics. Compared with HCs, A_LHON, and C_LHON patients demonstrated a higher ReHo/CBF ratio than the HCs in the bilateral primary visual cortex (B_CAL), which was accompanied by reduced CBF while preserved ReHo. Besides, only C_LHON had a higher ReHo/CBF ratio and reduced CBF in the left middle temporal gyrus (L_MTG) and left sensorimotor cortex (L_SMC) than the HCs, which was accompanied by increased ReHo in L_MTG (p < 1.85e-3, Bonferroni correction). A-LHON and C-LHON showed a negative Pearson correlation between ReHo/CBF ratio and CBF in B_CAL, L_SMC, and L_MTG. Only C_LHON showed a weak positive correlation between ReHo/CBF ratio and ReHo in L_SMC and L_MTG (p < 0.05, uncorrected). Finally, disease duration was positively correlated with ReHo/CBF ratio of L_SMC (Exponential: Radj2 = 0.23, p = 8.66e-4, Bonferroni correction). No statistical correlation was found between ReHo/CBF ratio and neuro-ophthalmological metrics (p > 0.05, Bonferroni correction). Brain neurovascular "dyscoupling" within and outside the visual system might be an important neurological mechanism of LHON.

Abstract
Infantile hemangioma (IH) is the most common benign tumor in children. However, the exact pathogenesis of IH remains unclear. Integrated nontargeted and targeted metabolic analyses were performed to obtain insight into the possible pathogenic mechanism of IH. The results of nontargeted metabolic analysis showed that 216 and 128 differential metabolites (DMs) were identified between hemangioma-derived endothelial cells (HemECs) and HUVECs in positive-ion and negative-ion models, respectively. In both models, these DMs were predominantly enriched in pathways related to amino acid metabolism, including aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis and arginine and proline metabolism. Then, targeted metabolic analysis of amino acids was further performed to further clarify HemEC metabolism. A total of 22 amino acid metabolites were identified, among which only 16 metabolites, including glutamine, arginine and asparagine, were significantly differentially expressed between HemECs and HUVECs. These significant amino acids were significantly enriched in 10 metabolic pathways, including 'alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism', 'arginine biosynthesis', 'arginine and proline metabolism', and 'glycine, serine and threonine metabolism'. The results of our study revealed that amino acid metabolism is involved in IH. Key differential amino acid metabolites, including glutamine, asparagine and arginine, may play an important role in regulating HemEC metabolism.

Abstract
Starch accounts for about 80-85 % of the dry weight of grains and determines yield by impact on grain weight. And, the content and composition of starch also determine appearance, eating, cooking and nutritional quality of rice. By coordinating crucial reactions of the primary carbohydrate metabolism in all eukaryotes, fructose-2,6-bisphosphate (Fru-2,6-P2) is a traffic signal in metabolism. However, the metabolic regulation of starch in plant sink tissues by Fru-2,6-P2 remains unclear. Here we isolated rice mutant floury endosperm23 (flo23) which has opaque endosperm and anomalous compound starch grains (SGs). flo23 mutant grains had reduced contents of starch, lipids and proteins. Map-based cloning and genetic complementation experiments showed that FLO23 encodes a cytoplasmic Fructose-6-phosphate-2-kinase/Fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (F2KP). Mutation of OsF2KP2 decreased Fru-2,6-P2 content in endosperm cells, leading to drastically reduced phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) and pyruvate contents and disordered glycolysis and energy metabolism. The results imply that OsF2KP2 participates in the glycolytic pathway by providing precursors and energy for synthesis of grain storage compounds.

Explore (NY) 2023; 19:71-77. [PMID: 35437224 DOI: 10.1016/j.explore.2022.04.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2021] [Revised: 03/22/2022] [Accepted: 04/03/2022] [Indexed: 01/25/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore effective acupoints and combinations for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) METHODS: Clinical controlled trials and randomized controlled trials of acupuncture for CIPN were sourced from PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Chinese databases, including the Wanfang database, VIP Journals database, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure database. The quality of eligible research was evaluated based on CONSORT and STRICTA statements. The common acupoints, meridians, and acupoint combinations were determined from acupuncture prescriptions reporting positive effects and were analyzed using SPSS 23.0 and SPSS Modeler 14.1. Finally, a complex network was constructed using Cytoscape 3.8.2 to explore the core acupoints. RESULTS The quality of 24 clinical trials was evaluated, and 20 acupuncture prescriptions that reported positive outcomes were included in subsequent data mining analysis. The most frequently used acupoints are ST36, LI11, LI4, LR3, and SP6. Meanwhile, they are also the core acupoints in acupuncture prescriptions according to the complex network with 28 nodes and 177 edges. The most commonly used meridians were the large intestine, stomach, and spleen. Acupoint combinations of LI11 and ST36, SP6 and ST36 were frequently used. CONCLUSION Our study provides a reference for the selection of effective acupoints for CIPN treatment and a basis for the effective use of this form of traditional Chinese medicine. Furthermore, we found limitations in the design and implementation of the available clinical research, which should be minimized in future studies.

Abstract
Plasma characteristic models were established in cylindrical coordinates according to the plasma expansion characteristics of pulsed laser processing of metal materials, mainly including plasma expansion characteristic models and a change rate model for the collisional ionization effect. The plasma characteristics (expansion dimension, expansion velocity, electron density and collision rate) for the pulsed laser machining of a bronze grinding wheel were obtained by using the plasma characteristic models. The results show that the expansion velocity direction can be changed after plasma collision, resulting in particles returning and depositing onto the processed material surface. Plasma spectrum measurements for the pulsed laser machining of a bronze grinding wheel and grinding tests were carried out. Based on the measured spectral data, the plasma electron temperature and plasma electron density were calculated, and the topography of the machined grinding wheel surface was observed, which confirms that black particles can return to cover the grinding wheel surface. Through grinding experiments, it is verified that the returning particles reduce the height of the abrasive protruding binder and block the chip space around the abrasive particles, resulting in reduced grinding performance. The experimental calculation data and numerical simulation results are basically consistent with each other, which not only verifies the correctness and feasibility of the plasma characteristic models but also provides theoretical guidance and process optimization for subsequent research into laser machining of materials.

Abstract
Elliptic flow measurements from two-, four-, and six-particle correlations are used to investigate flow fluctuations in collisions of U+U at sqrt[s_{NN}]=193 GeV, Cu+Au at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV and Au+Au spanning the range sqrt[s_{NN}]=11.5-200 GeV. The measurements show a strong dependence of the flow fluctuations on collision centrality, a modest dependence on system size, and very little if any, dependence on particle species and beam energy. The results, when compared to similar LHC measurements, viscous hydrodynamic calculations, and trento model eccentricities, indicate that initial-state-driven fluctuations predominate the flow fluctuations generated in the collisions studied.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features of anti-PD-1 related gastroenteritis, understand and recognize the disease, and avoid misdiagnoses. Methods: Three cases of anti-PD-1 related gastroenteritis diagnosed and treated at the Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University, Shanghai, China from 2020 to 2021 were collected. The clinical and pathological features were analyzed and the patients were followed up by telephone. Results: The three patients were all male and aged 63, 39 and 73 years, respectively. They had previously developed gastrointestinal symptoms as a result of immunotherapy for a malignant tumor. Endoscopically, 2 patients presented with pancolitis, and 1 patient presented with a large antral ulcer involving the pyloric canal in the stomach. Histologically, there were marked atrophy and thinning of the epithelium, diffuse infiltration of numerous neutrophils in the lamina propria, formation of micro-abscesses in the crypt/glandular lumen, structural changes (branching and distortion) of the glands, and significant glandular dilatation. In addition, chronic inflammatory features (e.g., lymphoplasmacytosis) were focally seen in 2 cases. Cytomegalovirus immunohistochemical stains were negative in all 3 cases. Based on the history and morphology, all 3 cases were diagnosed as anti-PD-1 related gastroenteritis. According to the above diagnosis, the treatment for all 3 patients was to stop anti-PD-1 therapy and use corticosteroids. Clinical follow-up was conducted. The gastrointestinal symptoms of all 3 patients improved significantly and diarrhea symptoms were relieved after stopping immunotherapy. Conclusions: Anti-PD-1 related gastroenteritis is not rare, but pathologists may lack sufficient understanding of it. Combined with clinical history and pathologic characteristics of the lesion, pathologists should consider this disease to avoid the misdiagnoses and missed diagnoses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of the four scoring tools in predicting mortality in pediatric intensive care units (PICUs) in western China. METHODS This was a multicenter, prospective, cohort study conducted in six PICUs in western China. The performances of the scoring systems were evaluated based on both discrimination and calibration. Discrimination was assessed by calculating the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) for each model. Calibration was measured across defined groups based on mortality risk using the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test. RESULTS A total of 2034 patients were included in this study, of whom 127 (6.2%) died. For the entire cohort, AUCs for Pediatric Risk of Mortality Score (PRISM) I, Pediatric Index of Mortality 2 (PIM2), Pediatric Logistic Organ Dysfunction Score-2 (PELOD-2) and PRISM IV were 0.88 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.85-0.92], 0.84 (95% CI 0.80-0.88), 0.80 (95% CI 0.75-0.85), and 0.91 (95% CI 0.88-0.94), respectively. The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit Chi-square value was 12.71 (P = 0.12) for PRISM I, 4.70 (P = 0.79) for PIM2, 205.98 (P < 0.001) for PELOD-2, and 7.50 (P = 0.48) for PRISM IV [degree of freedom (df) = 8]. The standardized mortality ratios obtained with the PRISM I, PIM2, PELOD-2, and PRISM IV models were 0.87 (95% CI, 0.75-1.01), 0.97 (95% CI, 0.85-1.12), 1.74 (95% CI, 1.58-1.92), and 1.05 (95% CI, 0.92-1.21), respectively. CONCLUSIONS PRISM IV performed best and can be used as a prediction tool in PICUs in Western China. However, PRISM IV needs to be further validated in NICUs.
