Abstract
PURPOSE The clinical outcome after in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is diverse in infertility patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The aim of this study was to develop a nomogram based on an association of patients' characteristics to predict the live birth rate in PCOS patients. METHODS All women in a public university hospital who attempted to conceive by IVF/ICSI for PCOS infertility from January 2014 to October 2018 were included. The nomogram was built from a training cohort of 178 consecutive patients and tested on an independent validation cohort of 81 patients. PCOS was confirmed in all participants. RESULTS Three variates significantly associated with live birth rate of PCOS patients were BMI, total serum cholesterol (TC) and basal FSH. This predictive model built on the basis of BMI, TC, basal FSH, type of embryo transferred and age showed good calibration and discriminatory abilities, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.708 (95% CI 0.632-0.785) for the training cohort. The nomogram showed satisfactory goodness-of-fit and discrimination abilities in the independent validation cohort, with an AUC of 0.686 (95% CI 0.556-0.815). CONCLUSION Our simple evidence-based nomogram presents graphically risk factors and prognostic models for IVF/ICSI outcomes in patients with PCOS, which can offer useful guidance to clinicians and patients for individual adjuvant therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to investigate whether circ-VANGL1 can promote the progression of osteoporosis (OP) by absorbing miRNA-217 to regulate RUNX2 expression. PATIENTS AND METHODS The serum levels of circ-VANGL1, miRNA-217 and RUNX2 in OP patients and non-OP patients were detected by quantitative Real Time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR). Their expression levels in human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) at different time points of osteogenesis differentiation were determined as well. The expression levels of RUNX2 and osteogenic proteins (BSP, OCN, OPN) in hBMSCs were detected by Western blot. Dual-Luciferase reporter gene assay was performed to verify the relationship among circ-VANGL1, miRNA-217 and RUNX2. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining was conducted to evaluate the degree of osteogenic differentiation influenced by circ-VANGL1 and miRNA-217. RESULTS OP patients presented a higher serum level of miRNA-217 and lower serum levels of circ-VANGL1 and RUNX2 relative to non-OP patients. Circ-VANGL1 accelerated osteogenic differentiation by absorbing miRNA-217 to regulate RUNX2 expression. Moreover, miRNA-217 inhibited osteogenic differentiation by degrading RUNX2 by targeting to RUNX2 3'UTR. The overexpression of circ-VANGL1 upregulated expressions of RUNX2, BSP, OCN, and OPN. Meanwhile, ALP activity increased in hBMSCs overexpressing circ-VANGL1. However, co-overexpression of circ-VANGL1 and miRNA-217 did not alter RUNX2 expression. ALP activity in hBMSCs co-overexpressing circ-VANGL1 and miRNA-217 slightly increased, but had no difference with controls. CONCLUSIONS Circ-VANGL1 promotes the development of OP via binding to miRNA-217 to downregulate RUNX2 expression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have demonstrated that pure transanal endoscopic surgery is safe and feasible in the treatment of rectal cancer. However, the role of pure transanal endoscopic colectomy in ascending colon cancer (ACC) treatment has not been evaluated. We report a case of transanal endoscopic surgery for ACC. METHODS A 35-year-old woman was treated for ACC, using a transanal endoscopic surgery device as the operation platform, and pure transanal endoscopic right hemicolectomy without transabdominal assistance was safely performed. An instrument suture, side-to-side, ileocolic anastomosis was performed. Operative time was 245 min and intraoperative blood loss was 60 ml. RESULTS The patient recovered well from the surgery. Compared with the traditional approach, this approach was less invasive and resulted in satisfactory outcomes and cosmesis (no scar). CONCLUSIONS Application of pure transanal endoscopic colectomy without abdominal assistance to ACC appears to be feasible and safe.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to explore the relationships between ADAMTS-13 gene polymorphisms and hypertension-induced atrial fibrillation (AF). PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 200 hypertensive patients without AF (hypertension group) and 200 hypertensive patients with AF (AF group) treated in our hospital were enrolled. Then, peripheral blood was drawn from these subjects enrolled, and the genomic deoxyribonucleic acids (DNAs) were extracted for analysis of ADAMTS-13 gene polymorphism. Next, Reverse Transcription-quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-qPCR) was employed to determine the expression of ADAMTS-13 gene, and the correlations of ADAMTS-13 gene polymorphism with ADAMTS-13 gene expression and clinical indicators were analyzed. RESULTS Results revealed that there was a difference in the distribution of alleles of ADSMTS-13 rs3094374 (p=0.046) and rs34054981 (p=0.039) between AF group and hypertension group. The frequency of T allele of the locus rs3094374 and that of the locus rs34054981 in ADSMTS-13 gene was higher in AF group than that in hypertension group. The distribution of genotypes of ADSMTS-13 rs28503257 (p=0.047) and rs34054981 (p=0.013) in AF group were different from those in hypertension group, and AF group had lower frequency of GA genotype of ADAMTS-13 rs28503257 and higher frequency of CT genotype of ADAMTS-13 rs34054981 than hypertension group. Besides, a difference was found in the distribution of ADSMTS-13 rs3094374 between AF group and hypertension group in recessive model (p=0.043), and the frequency of TC + CC was higher in the recessive model. Moreover, the distribution of the haplotypes CAT (p=0.012) and CGT (p=0.031) in ADAMTS-13 gene showed a difference between AF group and hypertension group. The linkage disequilibrium of the loci rs3094374 and rs28503257 in ADAMTS-13 gene was relatively great (D'=0.293). In addition, the polymorphism of the locus rs34054981 in ADAMTS-13 gene had an association with ADAMTS-13 gene expression (p<0.05). The expression of ADAMTS-13 gene was lower in patients carrying genotype TT in AF group. Furthermore, the ADAMTS-13 rs3094374 polymorphism was related to international normalized ratio (INR) (p=0.034), and the ADAMTS-13 rs28503257 polymorphism was correlated with the levels of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) (p=0.047) and D-dimer (p=0.033). CONCLUSIONS ADAMTS-13 gene polymorphism is correlated with the susceptibility and procession of hypertension-induced AF.

Abstract
We report constraints on the dark photon effective kinetic mixing parameter (κ) with data taken from two p-type point-contact germanium detectors of the CDEX-10 experiment at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory. The 90% confidence level upper limits on κ of solar dark photon from 205.4 kg-day exposure are derived, probing new parameter space with masses (m_{V}) from 10 to 300 eV/c^{2} in direct detection experiments. Considering dark photon as the cosmological dark matter, limits at 90% confidence level with m_{V} from 0.1 to 4.0 keV/c^{2} are set from 449.6 kg-day data, with a minimum of κ=1.3×10^{-15} at m_{V}=200 eV/c^{2}.

Abstract
We present results on light weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) searches with annual modulation (AM) analysis on data from a 1-kg mass p-type point-contact germanium detector of the CDEX-1B experiment at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory. Datasets with a total live time of 3.2 yr within a 4.2-yr span are analyzed with analysis threshold of 250 eVee. Limits on WIMP-nucleus (χ-N) spin-independent cross sections as function of WIMP mass (m_{χ}) at 90% confidence level (C.L.) are derived using the dark matter halo model. Within the context of the standard halo model, the 90% C.L. allowed regions implied by the DAMA/LIBRA and CoGeNT AM-based analysis are excluded at >99.99% and 98% C.L., respectively. These results correspond to the best sensitivity at m_{χ}<6 GeV/c^{2} among WIMP AM measurements to date.

Abstract
We report results on the searches of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) with sub-GeV masses (m_{χ}) via WIMP-nucleus spin-independent scattering with Migdal effect incorporated. Analysis on time-integrated (TI) and annual modulation (AM) effects on CDEX-1B data are performed, with 737.1 kg day exposure and 160 eVee threshold for TI analysis, and 1107.5 kg day exposure and 250 eVee threshold for AM analysis. The sensitive windows in m_{χ} are expanded by an order of magnitude to lower DM masses with Migdal effect incorporated. New limits on σ_{χN}^{SI} at 90% confidence level are derived as 2×10^{-32}∼7×10^{-35} cm^{2} for TI analysis at m_{χ}∼50-180 MeV/c^{2}, and 3×10^{-32}∼9×10^{-38} cm^{2} for AM analysis at m_{χ}∼75 MeV/c^{2}-3.0 GeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
Growing concern over the scarcity of freshwater motivates the development of compact and economic vapor capture methods for distributed thermal desalination or harvesting of water. We report a study of water vapor condensation on cold liquid beads traveling down a massive array of vertical cotton threads that act as pseudo-superhydrophilic surfaces. These liquid beads form through intrinsic flow instability and offer localized high-curvature surfaces that enhance vapor diffusion toward the liquid surface, a critical rate-limiting step. As the liquid flow rate increases, the bead spacing decreases, whereas the bead size and speed stay nearly constant. The resulting increase in the spatial bead density leads to mass transfer conductances and hence condensation rates per volume that are almost three times higher than the best reported values. Parallel and contiguous gas flow paths also result in a substantial reduction in gas pressure drop and hence electric fan power consumption.

Abstract
The cross section of the process e^{+}e^{-}→π^{+}D^{0}D^{*-} for center-of-mass energies from 4.05 to 4.60 GeV is measured precisely using data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring. Two enhancements are clearly visible in the cross section around 4.23 and 4.40 GeV. Using several models to describe the dressed cross section yields stable parameters for the first enhancement, which has a mass of 4228.6±4.1±6.3 MeV/c^{2} and a width of 77.0±6.8±6.3 MeV, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones are systematic. Our resonant mass is consistent with previous observations of the Y(4220) state and the theoretical prediction of a DD[over ¯]_{1}(2420) molecule. This result is the first observation of Y(4220) associated with an open-charm final state. Fits with three resonance functions with additional Y(4260), Y(4320), Y(4360), ψ(4415), or a new resonance do not show significant contributions from either of these resonances. The second enhancement is not from a single known resonance. It could contain contributions from ψ(4415) and other resonances, and a detailed amplitude analysis is required to better understand this enhancement.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the effect of aspirin on the stemness of breast cancer cells and apoptosis induction of breast cancer stem cells. Methods: The 4T1 cells cultured with stem cell culture medium were screened, and immunofluorescence technique, flow cytometry and tumor-forming experiment in vivo were applied to test stem cell characteristics of the tumor spheres. After dealt with aspirin, the apoptosis rate of 4T1 stem cells was analyzed by flow cytometry. The 4T1 cells were cultured in vitro and treated with aspirin, then flow cytometry analysis was used to detect the expression of aldehydedehy drogenase1 (ALDH1), and the expression of stemness genes was tested by Western blot . Then, after culturing the cells with medium containing basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), B27 and N2, the ability of sphere-forming was observed and recorded by microscopy. In vivo BALB/c mice inoculated with 4T1 stem cells were randomly divided into the control group, 10 mg/kg, 30 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg aspirin groups. After 10 days, the mice were dealt with aspirin or NS for 15 days, then the tumor growth was observed and recorded. Results: The ratio of ALDH1 positive cells was up to 78.55%, and 4T1 tumor sphere had a postive expression of ALDH1 and sex determining region Y-box 2 (SOX2). In vivo tumorigenesis abilities of tumor sphere with 1×10(2) 4T1 stem cells could be 75%, while the ratio of normal cells was zero. The ratio of Aspirin-induced apoptosis of 4T1 stem cells at early stage and and late stage increased from 0.36% to 21.61%, and from 4.21% to 21.38%, respectively. Flow cytometry and Western blot assay results indicated that aspirin could reduce the expression of ALDH1, SOX2, octamer-binding transcription factor 4 (OCT4) and NANOG in 4T1 cells. Sphere-forming experiments results showed that aspirin could inhibit sphere forming ability of breast cancer cells. In vivo, aspirin inhibited the growth of tumors with a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion: Aspirin could induce apoptosis of cancer stem cells and reduce stemness of breast cancer, and thus play a growth-inhibiting action on breast cancer.

Abstract
Using a 3.19 fb^{-1} data sample collected at an e^{+}e^{-} center-of-mass energy of E_{cm}=4.178 GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the branching fraction of the leptonic decay D_{s}^{+}→μ^{+}ν_{μ} to be B_{D_{s}^{+}→μ^{+}ν_{μ}}=(5.49±0.16_{stat}±0.15_{syst})×10^{-3}. Combining our branching fraction with the masses of the D_{s}^{+} and μ^{+} and the lifetime of the D_{s}^{+}, we determine f_{D_{s}^{+}}|V_{cs}|=246.2±3.6_{stat}±3.5_{syst} MeV. Using the c→s quark mixing matrix element |V_{cs}| determined from a global standard model fit, we evaluate the D_{s}^{+} decay constant f_{D_{s}^{+}}=252.9±3.7_{stat}±3.6_{syst} MeV. Alternatively, using the value of f_{D_{s}^{+}} calculated by lattice quantum chromodynamics, we find |V_{cs}|=0.985±0.014_{stat}±0.014_{syst}. These values of B_{D_{s}^{+}→μ^{+}ν_{μ}}, f_{D_{s}^{+}}|V_{cs}|, f_{D_{s}^{+}} and |V_{cs}| are each the most precise results to date.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Our understanding of the biological processes that generate somatic mutations in breast cancer has increased markedly over the past five years. Using the catalog of somatic mutations present in cancer genomes, over 30 “mutational signatures” have been produced. While these provide important insights into the processes responsible for somatic mutation, gaps remain, and the etiology of several signatures remains unknown.
Methods: We have developed a new method in which the specific nucleotide change (e.g., C>T), the codon that each mutation falls in (e.g., GCT), the position in the codon (e.g., 2), and the nucleotides immediately 5' and 3' of the mutation (e.g., 5': C; 3': G) are all considered. The summary of these mutation characteristics forms a mutational profile for each tissue sample. Putting multiple samples' profiles together forms a sparse matrix with the number of samples as rows and the mutation characteristics as columns. Nonsmooth nonnegative matrix factorization was then applied to enable the discovery of intrinsic patterns in this sparse matrix.
Results: Using somatic mutations identified in 1017 breast cancer tissues from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), we have identified four mutational signatures. Signature A correlates with the well-defined APOBEC signatures and signature B with the “aging” signature, which is the result 5-methylcytosine hydrolysis. Signature C and signature D are potentially new signatures. Signature D is enriched with C:G>A:T mutations; these mostly occur in the middle position of codons, and are enriched with GG(CC) either 5' or 3' of the mutation's sequence context. G>T mutations are known to occur as a consequence of oxidative damage that is not repaired. Guanines are vulnerable as they have the highest vertical oxidation potential of the nucleobases. The 5' guanines in GG sites are especially reactive. We hypothesize that Signature D results from oxidative mutagenesis.
When correlated with clinical phenotypes, the basal subtype is clearly enriched for tumors with the Signature D mutation pattern (exposure level is in 169 basal tumors and in 797 non-basal tumors, p=<0.01), suggesting an etiologic link with basal-like breast cancer. G>T somatic mutations in breast cancer mainly take place during cell replication rather than during transcription. In the normal breast, epithelial cell replication occurs during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle and during pregnancy, primarily under the direction of progesterone (P). P binds to its receptor (PR) in a subpopulation of PR positive cells where it initiates the transcription of genes including RANKL, with resultant paracrine stimulation (through RANK), of the NF-κB signaling pathway in neighboring cells. The four RANKL genes (TOP2A, MKI67, PBK, CDK1), defined by Nolan et al., are all positively associated with the signature D (P-values < 0.05), suggesting that this type of mutagenesis is associated with RANKL pathway upregulation.
Conclusions: We have identified a potentially new somatic mutational signature, which we have designated as Signature D, which appears to result from exposure of DNA to oxidative stress during replication. It is associated with the basal subtype of breast cancer as well as RANKL- NF-κB pathway upregulation.
