Abstract
Automatic myocardial infarction (MI) detection using an electrocardiogram (ECG) is of great significance for improving the survival rate of patients. In this study, we propose a multi-lead ensemble neural network (MENN) to distinguish anterior myocardial infarction (AMI) and inferior myocardial infarction (IMI) from healthy control (HC) respectively. In the study, three kinds of sub-networks and multi-lead ECG signals are combined, which fully explores the information of ECG signals and improves the classification performance. The algorithm is evaluated on the PTB database by 5-fold inter-subject cross-validation and the sensitivity (Se), specificity (Sp) and area under the curve (AUC) of AMI detection are 98.35%, 97.49%, 97.92%; The Se, Sp, and AUC of IMI detection are 93.17%, 92.02%, 92.60%. The proposed method achieves the state of the art results on both tasks and outperforms the baseline methods. Hence, the proposed method is potential for automatic MI diagnosis.

Abstract
Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of different opportunity of Saccharomyces boulardii (S. Boulardii) Sachets combined with bismuth quadruple therapy for Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori)eradication. Methods: This experiment was a prospective study. A total of 300 H. pylori-infected patients were enrolled and randomized assigned into three groups. Quadruple therapy group received pantoprazole 40 mg+bismuth potassium citrate capsule 220 mg+amoxicillin 1 000 mg+furazolidone 100 mg, bid, oral for 14 days. The simultaneous probiotic group received pantoprazole 40 mg+bismuth potassium citrate capsule 220 mg+amoxicillin 1 000 mg+furazolidone 100 mg+S. Boulardii Sachets 500 mg,bid,oral for 14 days.There after probiotic group:S.Boulardii Sachets was added on the first day after the end of 14 days in the quadruple group, for 500 mg, bid 14 days. The eradication rates and adverse reactions of the three groups were compared. Results: The eradication rates of H.pylori were 89.0%,90.4% and 91.3% in the quadruple therapy group, the simultaneous probiotic group and the there after probiotic group according to Per-protocol(PP) analysis,respectively,with no statistical difference (P=0.870). According to intention-to-treat(ITT)analysis, 81.0%, 85.0% and 84.0%, respectively, the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.732).The overall incidence of adverse reactions and the incidence of diarrhea and nausea in the simultaneous probiotic group, and the there after probiotic group were lower than those in the quadruple group(P<0.05),and the difference was statistically significant.The overall incidence of adverse reactions and diarrhea in the simultaneous probiotic were lower than those in the there after probiotic group (P=0.021, P=0.007), and the difference was statistically significant. Conclusions: S. Boulardii Sachets combined with quadruple therapy at the same time or after eradication treatment can not improve the H.pylori eradication rate,but can reduce the overall incidence of adverse reactions and the incidence of diarrhea and nausea. It is safer to add S. Boulardii Sachets at the same time than after eradication therapy.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the clinical value of plasma heme oxygenase 1(HO-1) in the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD). Methods: Patients with NAFLD were selected from the Physical examination center and the Department of Traditional and Western Medical Hepatology of Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University. A combination of ultrasound and liver elastography was used to screen NAFLD patients and healthy persons. General clinical characteristics, peripheral blood cell count and liver biochemical test results were collected synchronously, plasma samples were retained, and plasma HO-1 level was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. SPSS21.0 statistical software was used for statistical analysis, multivariate logistic regression analyses was used to analyse the independent risk factors affecting the incidence and progression of NAFLD. The diagnostic efficacy of indicators related to development of NAFLD was assessed by the receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC). Results: A total of 328 patients with NAFLD and 113 healthy controls were included. According to the liver biochemical results, the NAFLD group was divided into 148 patients with normal liver enzymes and 180 patients with abnormal liver enzymes. The level of HO-1 in the three groups was 9.09 ± 2.19, 14.38 ± 2.63, 17.00 ± 3.30 ng/ml, and was increased respectively of healthy controls, patients with normal liver enzymes and patients with abnormal liver enzymes. Analyzing plasma HO-1 levels of components associated with metabolic disorders suggests that components without metabolic syndrome(9.83 ± 3.21) < components with 1 metabolic syndrome(13.59 ± 3.72) < components with 2 or more metabolic syndrome(16.09 ± 3.41), P < 0.001. The results of HO-1 level stratification analysis showed that WBC, ALT, AST, GGT, TG increased as HO-1 level increased, and the pairwise difference was statistically significant (P < 0.001). The WBC count of NAFLD is significantly higher than healthy group(6.79 ± 1.62 vs 5.68 ± 1.36, P < 0.001). The univariate and multivariate regression analyses of all the subjects showed that HO-1, TG and BMI were prognostic factors for the occurrence of NAFLD and HO-1, TC, GLU were prognostic factors for the progression of NAFLD, P < 0.05. The ROC analysis showed that HO-1 was reliable markers for predicting the occurrence and progression of NALFD, the sensitivity and specificity were respectively 85.10%, 92.90% and 38.33%, 95.27%. Conclusion: Plasma HO-1 can predict the occurrence and progression of NAFLD and is expected to be a novel molecular diagnostic marker for NAFLD and NASH.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the predictive value of 3 different risk stratification models including the risk adjustment in congenital heart surgery-1 (RACHS-1), Aristotle basic complexity (ABC), and Society of Thoracic Surgeons-European Association for cardiothoracic surgery congenital heart surgery mortality score (STAT) risk scoring system for death and major complications in patients after congenital heart surgeries. Methods: A total of 3 578 patients (age<18 years old) received surgery for congenital heart diseases from January to December 2015 in Fuwai hospital were enrolled, and the clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. The congenital heart disease patients were 1.7 (0.8, 4.5) years old, and the male accounted for 54.3% (1 943 cases).Death after surgery and major complications including use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, bedside thoracotomy, peritoneal dialysis for renal failure, bedside hemofiltration for renal failure, tracheotomy, reoperation for mediastinum infection, reoperation for heart in hospital were observed. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was calculated to evaluate the predictive value for mortality after surgery and major complications with RACHS-1, ABC, and STAT risk scoring systems. Results: The mortality after surgery was 0.4% (14/3 578) , and the rate of major complications was 3.2% (113/3 578) . For mortality after surgery, areas under the ROC curve were 0.682 (95%CI 0.570-0.795, P=0.002), 0.722 (95%CI 0.612-0.832, P<0.001), and 0.753 (95%CI 0.659-0.847, P<0.001) with RACHS-1, ABC and STAT risk scoring systems, respectively. For major complications, areas under the ROC curve were 0.709 (95%CI 0.667-0.751, P<0.001), 0.743 (95%CI 0.702-0.784, P<0.001), and 0.731 (95%CI 0.693-0.770, P<0.001) with RACHS-1, ABC and STAT risk scoring systems, respectively. Conclusion: STAT risk scoring system is superior to RACHS-1 and ABC risk scoring systems on predicting death after surgery, and ABC risk scoring system is superior to RACHS-1 and STAT risk scoring systems on predicting major complications in Chinese patients with congenital heart disease in the single center.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the correlation of left heart function changes with cognitive impairment in patients with cerebral small vessel diseases (CSVD). Methods: From February 2012 to June 2018, 199 CSVD patients admitted to the Department of Neurology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University were enrolled as CSVD group. A total of 103 healthy elderly persons without cognition disorders were included as normal control group (NC group). According to the diagnostic criteria, CSVD patients were divided into 112 CSVD patients with vascular cognitive impairment (CSVD-VCI group) and 87 CSVD patients without cognitive impairment (CSVD-NCI group). Neuroimaging markers of CSVD (including lacunar infarction and white matter hyperintensity) were assessed through brain MRI. Cognitive function was evaluated by The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), the Cambridge Cognitive Examination-Chinese Version (CAMCOG-C), etc. Routine echocardiography was performed to evaluate left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left atrial diameter (LAD) and other parameters. Results: Compared with NC group, the LVEF level was significantly decreased in CSVD group [(65±5)% and (63±6)%, respectively] (P=0.007), while LAD level was significantly increased in CSVD group (P=0.024). The LVEF level of CSVD-VCI group [(62±6)%] was significantly lower than that of CSVD-NCI group [(64±5)%] (P=0.02). Correlation analysis revealed MMSE and CAMCOG-C scores in CSVD group were positively correlated with LVEF level (r=0.210, P=0.003; r=0.238, P=0.001). Logistic regression analysis revealed that declined LVEF was an independent risk factor associated with CSVD (OR=0.937, 95%CI 0.890-0.986) and CSVD-VCI (OR=0.900, 95%CI 0.829-0.977). Conclusions: Left heart function changes play important roles in the occurrence of CSVD and severity of its cognitive impairment. The declined LVEF may represent an independent risk factor for CSVD and its cognitive impairment.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical effect and safety of long-acting pegylated interferon-α-2b (Peg-IFN-α-2b) (Y shape, 40 kD) injection (180 μg/week) in the treatment of HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients, with standard-dose Peg-IFN-α-2a as positive control. Methods: This study was a multicenter, randomized, open-label, and positive-controlled phase III clinical trial. Eligible HBeAg-positive CHB patients were screened out and randomized to Peg-IFN-α-2b (Y shape, 40 kD) trial group and Peg-IFN-α-2a control group at a ratio of 2:1. The course of treatment was 48 weeks and the patients were followed up for 24 weeks after drug withdrawal. Plasma samples were collected at screening, baseline, and 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, and 72 weeks for centralized detection. COBAS® Ampliprep/COBAS® TaqMan® HBV Test was used to measure HBV DNA level by quantitative real-time PCR. Electrochemiluminescence immunoassay with Elecsys kit was used to measure HBV markers (HBsAg, anti-HBs, HBeAg, anti-HBe). Adverse events were recorded in detail. The primary outcome measure was HBeAg seroconversion rate after the 24-week follow-up, and non-inferiority was also tested. The difference in HBeAg seroconversion rate after treatment between the trial group and the control group and two-sided confidence interval (CI) were calculated, and non-inferiority was demonstrated if the lower limit of 95% CI was > -10%. The t-test, chi-square test, or rank sum test was used according to the types and features of data. Results: A total of 855 HBeAg-positive CHB patients were enrolled and 820 of them received treatment (538 in the trial group and 282 in the control group). The data of the full analysis set showed that HBeAg seroconversion rate at week 72 was 27.32% in the trial group and 22.70% in the control group with a rate difference of 4.63% (95% CI -1.54% to 10.80%, P = 0.1493). The data of the per-protocol set showed that HBeAg seroconversion rate at week 72 was 30.75% in the trial group and 27.14% in the control group with a rate difference of 3.61% (95% CI -3.87% to 11.09%, P = 0.3436). 95% CI met the non-inferiority criteria, and the trial group was non-inferior to the control group. The two groups had similar incidence rates of adverse events, serious adverse events, and common adverse events. Conclusion: In Peg-IFN-α regimen for HBeAg-positive CHB patients, the new drug Peg-IFN-α-2b (Y shape, 40 kD) has comparable effect and safety to the control drug Peg-IFN-α-2a.

Abstract
In order to control the length of micro-channels ablated at the surface of dielectrics, we use annular filtering apertures for tailoring the depth of focus of micrometric Gaussian-Bessel beams. We identify experimentally and numerically the appropriate beam truncation that promotes a smooth axial distribution of intensity with a small elongation, suitable for processing micro-channels of small aspect ratio. Single-shot channel fabrication is demonstrated on the front surface of a fused silica sample, with sub-micron diameter, high-quality opening, and depth of few micrometers, using 1 ps low-energy (< 0.45 µJ) pulse. Finally, we realize 10 × 10 matrices of densely packed channels with aspect ratio ~5 and a spatial period down to 1.5 μm, as a prospective demonstration of direct laser fabrication of 2D photonic-crystal structures.

Abstract
Objective: Serum anti Müllerian hormone (AMH) was used to evaluate the effect of cyclophosphamide (CTX) on ovarian function in female patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods: A total of 121 female patients who were 18-50 years old with normal menstruation were selected. Among them, 54 patients were treated with CTX as the study group and the remaining 67 cases as the control group. Before and after treatment for 6 months, the clinical characteristics, menstruation and AMH level of all patients were recorded and detected. At the same time, the method of using CTX and the cumulative measurement are recorded. Results: (1) Before treatment, there was no significant difference in AMH and mean age, duration of disease and SLEDAI score between the CTX treatment group and the control group. The renal injury in the CTX treatment group (44.4%) was higher than that of the control group (34.3%), and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). (2) After 6 months of treatment, the AMH of group CTX decreased from (2.39±1.58) μg/L to (1.56±1.42) μg/L, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). But there was no significant change in the control group. In 54 cases of CTX treatment group, 23 cases (42.6%) had different degree of menstrual abnormalities, while 67 cases had only 8 cases (11.9%) in the control group. Moreover, the AMH level of 31 cases with abnormal menstruation was (0.95±0.59) μg/L, which was significantly lower than that of the other 90 normal cases (2.36±1.58) μg/L. (3) In 54 cases of CTX treatment group, the cumulative dose of CTX was less than 3 g in 14 cases, 33 cases of 3-6 g, 7 cases greater than 6 g. AMH was all were lower than those before treatment. But there was a statistical difference between the 3 g group and 3-6 g group before treatment, and there were statistical differences between the groups. Conclusion: CTX can damage ovarian function in women of childbearing age SLE. Low dose intravenous CTX may have less damage. Serum AMH can be used to monitor ovarian function in patients with SLE and to guide individualized treatment.

Abstract
Dual camera is becoming increasingly prevalent among smartphone camera schemes these days. This paper demonstrates a system prototype by using the color and monochrome cameras on one smartphone simultaneously for visible light communication. To achieve this, we propose a novel dual-modulation scheme. The baseband signal is firstly modulated by color ratio modulation-color shift keying (CRM-CSK) to broadcast color ratio information that can be distinguished by the color camera. Next to it, gray level modulation (GLM) is utilized to generate CRM symbols with gray levels that can be distinguished by the monochrome camera. Our experiment shows a significant improvement in the downlink data rate of the optical camera communication (OCC) using a single light source.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the neonatal and maternal outcomes between the patients with umbilical cord around the neck (≥3 loops) and with (1 or 2 loops). Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 160 cases with multiple umbilical cord around the neck (≥3 loops) in the Department of Obstetrics, Women's Hospital School of Medicine Zhejiang University between January 2014 and April 2017.For each case, two control women who gave birth at the same day with vertex position and singletons were selected.The neonatal and maternal outcomes were compared. Result: (1) The incidence of cord multiple cord around the neck (≥3 loops) in our hospital was 0.45%. (2) Comparison between groups: The rate of abnormal fetal movement or abnormal cardiotocography in case group was higher than those of the control group, (33.13%, 53/160) vs (8.13%, 26/320), with significant difference, P=0.000.The Umbilical Artery Systolic/diastolic (S/D) ratio of the case group was lower than that of the control group, 2.00(0.40) vs 2.14(0.40), with significant difference, P=0.000.The cesarean section rate of the case group was higher than that of the control group, (81.25%, 130/160) vs (7.50%, 24/320), and the difference was statistically significant, P=0.000.Birth Weight of the case group was lower than that of the control group, (3 143±367) g vs (3 323±349) g, with significant difference, P=0.000.(3) Comparison between subgroups: The rate of lateral incision or obstetrical forceps in the subgroup of virginal delivery among the case group (n=30) was higher than that in the control group (n=296), (30.00%, 9/30) vs (12.50%, 37/296), with significant difference, P=0.009.While, the Apgar score at 1 and 5 min of the virginal delivery case in the case group were lower than that in the control group, 10(1.25) vs 10(0) and 10(0) vs 10(0), there were both significant difference, P=0.000, 0.012, respectively.The rate of meconium-stained amniotic fluid, 1 min Apgar score of ≤7 and NICU admission were showed no significance, all P>0.05.(4) After Logistic regression, the four factors most closely associated with meconium-stained amniotic fluid in patients with multiple cord around the neck (≥3 loops), which were gestational age ≥39 weeks, Birth Weight >3 500 g, umbilical cord around the neck ≥4 loops, and trial of labor. Conclusion: (1) Multiple umbilical cord around the neck (≥3 loops) had a more positive treatment. Vaginal delivery led to lower APGAR score, but didn't increase the incidence of neonatal asphyxia.(2) Independent risk factors for meconium-stained amniotic fluid were gestational age ≥39 weeks, Birth Weight>3 500 g, umbilical cord around the neck ≥4 loops and trial of labor.

Abstract
Objective: To optimize the ion selective electrode method of measuring urinary fluorine in WS/T 30-1996. Methods: The volume of 5 mol/L NaOH solution was fixed to confect the TISAB buffer solution. The samples were prepared by mixing 5 ml urine and equal volume of TISAB solution. Fluorine electrode and calomel electrode was used to test. When the potential value changed less than ±0.5 mV in one minute, it could be recorded. The standard curve method was selected as a quantitive method. Results: The linear range of this method was 0.07~50.0 mg/L, E=238.96-57.50lgC, r=0.999 8. The LOD and LOQ were 0.02 mg/L and 0.07 mg/L (with 5 ml urine) , respectively. The RSD of intra -and inter-batch precision were 0.80%~2.82% and 2.17%~2.86%, respectively. The recovery rate was 102%~107%. The urine sample could be preserved stably for 14 days at room temperature, and for 30 days at 4 ℃ and -20 ℃. Conclusion: In this method, the preparation process of TISAB buffer solution was simplified, and the linear range was expanded. It could meet the needs of occupational population detection.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the efficacy and to identify prognostic factors of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) chemoembolisation for treating advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with portal vein (PV) tumour thrombosis (PVTT) and arterioportal shunts. MATERIALS AND METHODS The clinical data of 145 advanced HCC patients with PVTT and arterioportal shunts were collected. The patients were divided into two groups: group A, with main PV invasion, (n=56) and group B, with PV branch invasion, (n=89). Based on arterioportal shunt types, different particle sizes of PVA were used for chemoembolisation. The overall survival (OS), time to progression (TTP), and postoperative complications were analysed retrospectively. RESULTS The median OS of all patients was 10.1 months. The median OS of group A and group B was 8.2 and 12.5 months, respectively (χ2=6.03, p=0.01). The overall 6-, 12-, and 18-month survival rates of groups A and B were 63.8%, 24.9%, and 6.3%, and 78.1%, 55.2%, and 23.7%, respectively. After embolisation, there were two cases of acute liver failure and three cases of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Cox multivariate survival analysis revealed that main PVTT (HR [hazard ratio]=1.75, p=0.01), Child-Pugh B class (HR=1.99, p=0.003) and tumour burden ≥50% (HR=3.25, p<0.001) were independent risk factors. A dose of oxaliplatin >100 mg (HR=0.48, p<0.001) was an independent protection factor. CONCLUSION Treatment of advanced HCC with PVTT and arterioportal shunts by PVA chemoembolisation is safe and effective. The patients achieved a better prognosis with the dose of oxaliplatin >100 mg, while main PVTT, Child-Pugh B class, and tumour burden ≥50% were poor prognostic indicators.

Abstract
Twin boundary defects form in virtually all crystalline materials as part of their response to applied deformation or thermal stress. For nearly six decades, graphite has been used as a textbook example of twinning with illustrations showing atomically sharp interfaces between parent and twin. Using state-of-the-art high-resolution annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy, we have captured atomic resolution images of graphitic twin boundaries and find that these interfaces are far more complex than previously supposed. Density functional theory calculations confirm that the presence of van der Waals bonding eliminates the requirement for an atomically sharp interface, resulting in long-range bending across multiple unit cells. We show these remarkable structures are common to other van der Waals materials, leading to extraordinary microstructures, Raman-active stacking faults, and sub-surface exfoliation within bulk crystals. All materials subjected to mechanical deformation form low energy interfaces known as twin boundaries. Here, the authors investigate a variety of structural features that form upon bending atomically thin 2D-crystals, and predict distinct classes of post deformation microstructure based on their atomic arrangement, bend angle and flake thickness.

Abstract
AIM Endothelial recovery, or re-endothelialization, plays an important role in intimal hyperplasia and atherosclerosis after endothelial injury. Studying the mechanisms of re-endothelialization and strategies to promote efficient endothelial recovery are still needed. Interferon-induced protein 35 (IFI35) is an IFN-γ-induced protein that plays important roles in the antivirus-related immune-inflammatory response. In this study, we tested whether overexpression IFI35 affects the proliferation and migration of endothelial cells (ECs) and re-endothelialization. METHODS Wire injury of the carotid artery was induced in C57BL/6 mice, which was followed by IFI35 or null adenovirus transduction. Evans blue staining and HE staining were performed to evaluate the re-endothelialization rate and neointima formation. In vitro studies, primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were transfected with Ad-IFI35 or siRNA-IFI35 to evaluate its potential roles in cell proliferation and migration. Furthermore, the potential mechanism relating inhibition of NF-κB/p65 pathway was elaborated by luciferase assay and IFI35 domain deletion assay. RESULTS In IFI35 adenovirus-transduced mice, the re-endothelialization rates at days 3, 7 were significantly reduced compared to those in null adenovirus-transduced mice (5% and 35%, vs 20% and 50%, respectively). Meanwhile, subsequent neointimal hyperplasia was obviously increased in IFI35 adenovirus-transduced mice. In vitro studies further indicated that IFI35 inhibits both EC proliferation and migration by inhibiting the NF-κB/p65 pathway. Subsequent studies demonstrated that IFI35 functionally interacted with Nmi through its NID1 domain and that knock-down of Nmi significantly mitigated the inhibitory effect of IFI35 on EC proliferation and migration. CONCLUSION Our study revealed a novel mechanism through which IFI35 affects the proliferation and migration of ECs as well as neointima formation, specifically through inhibition of the NF-κB/p65 pathway. Thus, IFI35 is a promising target for the prevention and treatment of post-injury vascular intimal hyperplasia.

Abstract
AIMS The pharmacokinetics (PK) of fluconazole and micafungin differ in neonates compared with children and adults. Dosing instructions in product labels appear to be inconsistent with the emerging scientific evidence. Limited information is available on the safety profile of these agents in neonates. Our objective was to study the population PK and safety of both drugs, randomly administered in neonates with suspected or confirmed systemic candidiasis. METHODS Neonates were randomized 1:1 to fluconazole (loading dose 25 mg kg-1 ; maintenance dose 12 mg kg-1 day-1 or 20 mg kg-1 day-1 , respectively, for infants <30 weeks or ≥30 weeks' corrected gestational age) or micafungin (loading dose 15 mg kg-1 day-1 ; maintenance dose 10 mg kg-1 day-1 ). PK samples were taken on treatment days 1 and 5. Population parameters were determined using NONMEM and Monte Carlo simulations performed to reach predefined targets. Clinical and laboratory data, and adverse events were collected up to 36 weeks' corrected gestational age or hospital discharge. RESULTS Thirty-six neonates were enrolled. The median (range) gestational age was 28.2 (24.1-40.1) and 26.8 (23.5-40.0) weeks for fluconazole and micafungin, respectively. Based on 163 PK samples, the median population clearance (l h-1 kg-1 ) and volume of distribution (l kg-1 ) for fluconazole were: 0.015 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.008, 0.039] and 0.913, and for micafungin were: 0.020 (95% CI 0.010, 0.023) and 0.354 (95% CI 0.225, 0.482), respectively. The loading dose was well tolerated. No adverse events associated with micafungin or fluconazole were reported. CONCLUSION Based on Monte Carlo simulations, a loading dose for fluconazole and dosing higher than recommended for both drugs are required to increase the area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve target attainment rate in neonates.

Abstract
Lepidoptera sex pheromone biosynthesis is regulated by pheromone biosynthesis activating neuropeptide (PBAN). PBAN regulates not only female sex pheromone biosynthesis but also male sex pheromone biosynthesis. Previous research has confirmed that PBAN regulates sex pheromone biosynthesis using Ca2+ as a secondary messenger in all examined species to date. However, the downstream signal of Ca2+ has remained elusive. In the present study, calcineurin A (CNA), a downstream signal of Ca2+ , was discovered in Helicoverpa armigera male hairpencil and named HaCNA. Sequence analysis demonstrated that the open reading frame of HaCNA contains 1488 nucleotides encoding 495 amino acid residues. A homology search revealed that HaCNA shares a high amino acid identity with the CNA of other insects. Developmental and spatial expression analyses revealed that the mRNA levels of HaCNA peaked at 24 h after emergence and that HaCNA expression was ubiquitous in all examined tissues. Activity analysis revealed that PBAN activates HaCNA, and a Ca2+ inhibitor, Lacl3 , attenuated the effect of PBAN by decreasing HaCNA activity. Pharmacological inhibitor and RNA interference-mediated knockdown assays revealed that both activity inhibition and decreased mRNA levels of HaCNA led to a significant decrease in the production of the male sex pheromone components [octadecanol and (Z)-11 hexadecanol)] and in the efficacy of female mating acceptance. Our results demonstrate that HaCNA acts as downstream signal of PBAN/Ca2+ and plays an important role in PBAN-induced male sex pheromone biosynthesis and female mating acceptance.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze clinical feature and treatment outcome of patients with primary diffuse large B cell lymphoma(DLBCL) in reproductive system. Methods: A total of 26 patients with DLBCL in reproductive system were retrospectively analyzed, and the clinical features, laboratory data were included in Kaplan-Meier and prognostic analysis. Results: In our center, the incidence of primary diffuse large B cell lymphoma in reproductive system was 3.5% in all DLBCL patients, and the median age was 62.0 years. Male are more common with unilateral testicular involvement, and 38.5% patients belong to Ⅲ and Ⅳstage while 84.6% patients belong to non-germinal center B cell-like subgroup. The overall response rate(ORR) for the whole group was 88.5%. The complete response rate was 76.9%. The 3, 5-year progression free survival rate was 70.5% and 62.7% , and the 3, 5-year overall survival rate was 83.5% and 69.6%, respectively. The most common recurrent sites were contralateral testis and central nervous system. Rituximab can improve the survival of patients and combined with contralateral irradiation can furtherly improve progression free survival of patients(P=0.047). Clinical stage, B symptom, IPI, the level of LDH, and CRP, age>60 years, and initial treatment outcome were predictive of overall survival. Conclusion: Primary diffuse large B cell lymphoma in reproductive system is a rare type of extranodal DLBCL which occurs in older men with aggressive features. The most common sites of recurrence were contralateral testis and central nervous system. Surgery, rituximab , radiotherapy and prophylactic intrathecal injection can improve the survival of patients and may be the first-line treatment.

Abstract
Background Current standard treatment, including non-anthracycline-based chemotherapy and optimal combining of radiotherapy, has dramatically improved outcomes of patients with extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) during the last decade. This study was conducted to investigate the clinical outcome of ENKTL patients with relapsed or progressive disease after initial current standard therapy. Patients and methods We retrospectively reviewed patients diagnosed with ENKTL at six centers in four countries (China, France, Singapore, and South Korea) from 1997 to 2015 and analyzed 179 patients who had relapsed or progressed after initial current standard therapy. Results After a median follow-up of 58.6 months (range 27.9-89.2), the median second progression-free survival (PFS) was 4.1 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 3.04-5.16] and overall survival (OS) was 6.4 months (95% CI 4.36-8.51). Multivariate Cox-regression analysis revealed that elevated lactate dehydrogenase, multiple extranodal sites (≥2), and presence of B symptoms were associated with inferior OS (P < 0.05). OS and PFS were significantly different according to both prognostic index of natural killer lymphoma (PINK) and PINK-E (Epstein-Barr virus) models. Salvage chemotherapy with l-asparaginase (l-Asp)-based regimens showed a significantly better clinical benefit to response rate and PFS, although it did not lead to OS improvement. First use of l-Asp in the salvage setting and l-Asp rechallenge at least 6 months after initial treatment were the best candidates for salvage l-Asp containing chemotherapy. Conclusions Most patients with relapsed or refractory ENKTL had poor prognosis with short survival. Further studies are warranted to determine the optimal treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory ENKTL.

Abstract
1. The low reproductive performance of geese has seriously hampered the development of the industry. Reproductive performance, particularly the egg laying rate mainly depends on the development of the follicle. Previous studies have shown that follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) plays an important role in the process of follicular development, but the exact underlying mechanism remains unclear. 2. This study showed that FSH stimulated granulosa cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. The effect of FSH treatment on granulosa cell proliferation was greatest at a dose of 100 mIU/ml FSH for 24 h. 3. Secondly, the effect of different concentrations of FSH on goose granulosa cell proliferation was investigated, and de novo transcriptome assembly and gene expression analysis performed using short-read sequencing technology (Illumina). High-throughput sequencing results yielded 62.61 M reads and 7.8 G base pairs from granulosa cells treated with 100 mIU/ml FSH. These reads were assembled into 65,757 unigenes (mean length: 705 bp) with an N50 of 903 bp. A total of 110 upregulated and 510 downregulated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by RNA-seq. 4. Functional analysis by gene ontology (GO) and KEGG pathway annotation indicated that hormone biosynthesis (GO:0042446), positive regulation of hormone secretion (GO:0046887), steroid biosynthesis, oxidative phosphorylation and carbon metabolism pathways were involved in FSH-mediated proliferation of goose granulosa cells. 5. After screening, a group of key responsive genes including superoxide dismutase 1, fatty acyl-CoA reductase 1, transforming growth factor-beta receptor-associated protein 1 and follistatin were tested by real-time reverse transcription PCR to confirm differential expression in granulosa cells stimulated by FSH. 6. FSH-stimulated goose granulosa cells and DEG profiling data provided comprehensive gene expression information at the transcriptional level that could promote better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying follicle development in response to FSH stimulation.
