Abstract
Background and purpose: Multiple randomized trials have confirmed that mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is an effective treatment method for patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). However, evidence on the safety and efficacy of MT in elderly patients compared with younger patients is controversial. This meta-analysis is aimed to systematically compare the outcomes of elderly patients and younger patients after MT for AIS. Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted through the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library database. The primary outcomes were favorable functional outcome at 90 days and mortality. The secondary outcomes were symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) and successful recanalization rate. Odds ratios (ORs) were estimated using a random effects model. Results: Sixteen studies published between 2014 and 2019 were included in this meta-analysis totally involving 3,954 patients. The pooled results showed that patients aged ≥80 years had worse functional outcome (OR = 0.40; 95% CI, 0.32–0.50; P < 0.001) and higher rates of mortality (OR = 2.26; 95% CI, 1.73–2.95; P < 0.001). There was a trend of higher rates of sICH in patients aged ≥80 years compared with patients aged <80 years, whereas this did not reach statistical significance (OR = 1.28; 95% CI, 0.89–1.84; P = 0.18). Furthermore, the frequency of successful recanalization was also lower in patients aged ≥80 years compared with patients aged <80 years (OR = 0.72; 95% CI, 0.55–0.95; P = 0.02). The subgroup analysis indicated that in comparison with those studies published between 2014 and 2016, elderly patients undergoing MT had better outcomes in studies published between 2017 and 2019. Conclusion: Elderly patients undergoing MT had higher risk of mortality and worse functional outcome. Meanwhile, there was a trend toward higher rates of sICH and lower probability of achieving successful recanalization in elderly patients. These findings emphasize the need for improving the rates of successful recanalization in elderly patients with AIS. In addition, advanced technology of endovascular intervention and peri-interventional management might be associated with the prognosis in elderly patients. However, more prospective or randomized studies should be conducted to further explore this issue.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the association between sensory impairment and all-cause mortality among the oldest-old (aged 80 and older) in China. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING Community-based setting in 22 provinces of China. PARTICIPANTS A total of 8788 older adults aged 80 and over at baseline with complete hearing and vision function data were included as the study population. MEASUREMENTS Sensory impairment was categorized as no sensory impairment, hearing impairment (HI) only, vision impairment (VI) only and dual sensory impairment (DSI) according to hearing and vision function. Deaths were identified through interviews by close family members. Cox proportion hazards regression models were used to examine the association of sensory impairment with mortality, adjusting for socio-demographic data, life style factors and health status. RESULTS The mean age was 92.3 ± 7.6 years old, and 60.1% of participants were female. Among 8788 participants, 9.8% were recognized as DSI, 9.7% were HI only and 10.4% with VI only. Comparing with participants with no sensory impairment, those with VI only (HR=1.10, 95% CI=1.01-1.20) and DSI (HR=1.21, 95% CI=1.09-1.35) were significantly associated with higher risk of all-cause mortality in the fully adjusted model. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrated that VI only and DSI were significantly associated with higher risk of mortality among Chinese older adults aged 80 and over. The finding advocated that it is necessary to identify and manage sensory impairments for the advanced ages to reduce mortality risks.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To estimate the prevalence of sarcopenia in different ethnic groups and the association with cultural life styles in west China. DESIGN A cross-sectional study. SETTINGS The communities in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, and Xinjiang provinces. PARTICIPANTS 4500 participants aged 50 years or older in west China were enrolled in this study. Sarcopenia was defined according to the diagnostic algorithm of the Asia Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS). MEASUREMENTS We measured gait speed, handgrip strength and muscle mass by using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) for all eligible participants. Life-style information were collected by reviewers. Relationships between sarcopenia and ethnic groups were analyzed using univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS We found 869 (19.31%) adults aged 50 years old or older were sarcopenia. The mean age is 62.4±8.3 years. The main ethnic groups enrolled in this study is Han, Tibetan, Qiang, Yi and Hui. The crude prevalence of sarcopenia is 22.3% in Han, 18.2% in Tibetan, 11.8% in Qiang, 34.7% in Yi and 26.7% in Hui. Compared to Han, after adjusting sex and age, Qiang has a lower prevalence of sarcopenia (odds ratio [OR]: 0.44, 95% CI 0.35-0.55), Yi has a higher prevalence of sarcopenia (OR: 1.78, 95% CI 1.29-2.43). While adding adjusting other potential cofounders, sarcopenia is still less prevalent in Qiang (OR: 0.44, 95% CI 0.34-0.57). CONCLUSIONS The crude prevalence of sarcopenia is 22.3% in Han, 18.2% in Tibetan, 11.8% in Qiang, 34.7% in Yi and 26.7% in Hui. Sarcopenia was less prevalent in Qiang compared with Han. Further studies to determine related factors of sarcopenia among different ethnic groups are recommended.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Frailty and poor oral health are both common age-related conditions. However, the association between oral health and frailty has not been explored thoroughly among older Chinese adults. We aimed to investigate the associations between number of teeth, denture use, and frailty among older adults in western China. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Community-based. PARTICIPANTS Participants were 4037 community-dwelling individuals aged 60 and older from the West China Health and Aging Trend (WCHAT) study. MEASUREMENTS Frailty was assessed using the physical frailty phenotype (PFP) and categorized as non-frail, prefrail and frail. In addition, number of teeth and denture use were examined by calibrated dentists. Multinomial logistic regression models were performed to examine the association between number of teeth, denture use, and frailty. RESULTS The overall prevalence of frailty was 6.7% among 4037 participants aged 60 and older in western China. Participants with no more than 20 teeth were associated with higher odds of being prefrail or frail whether wearing dentures or not. Denture using could not help lower the odds of being prefrail or frail for older adults with fewer teeth. CONCLUSIONS This study suggested that frailty was associated with having fewer teeth (≤20 teeth) among older Chinese adults. Future research involving targeted interventions addressing number of teeth may help provide information to establish effective strategies for frailty prevention in older adults.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify the prevalence, lifestyle factors, chronic disease status, and assessing the metabolic profile, comparing key differences in a cohort of subjects with non-sarcopenia/non-obesity (H), sarcopenia/non-obesity (S), non-sarcopenia/obesity (O) and sarcopenia obesity (SO) in a multi-ethnic population in west China. DESIGN A cross-sectional study. SETTING The communities in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, and Xinjiang provinces. PARTICIPANTS We included 4,500 participants aged 50 years or older who did bioelectrical impedance in our analysis from West China Health and Aging Trend (WCHAT) study. MEASUREMENTS We measured gait speed, handgrip strength and muscle mass by using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) for all participants. We defined sarcopenia using the diagnostic algorithm recommended by the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS). Obesity was defined as the highest sex-specific quintile of the percentage body fat. Different variables like anthropometry measures, life styles, chronic disease and blood test were collected. Analysis of variance and a multinomial logistic regression analysis adjusting for covariates were used to assess the differences of metabolic profiles among different groups. RESULTS Of 4500 participants aged 50 years old or older, the proportions of H, O, S, SO were 63.0%, 17.7%, 16.7% and 2.6%, respectively. And the prevalence of S subjects in men was 18.3% and 15.7% in women, while the prevalence of SO was 3.7% in men and 2.0% in women. Data showed that the prevalence of S and SO has an aging increase pattern which was opposite with O. Both S and SO tends to be older, lower educational level, without spouse, smoking, comorbidity of chronic disease, poor nutrition status, depression and cognitive decline compared to H and S seems to be worse than SO. Compared to H, S cohort showed a decrease in Vitamin D, triglyceride, albumin, fasting glucose, insulin, creatinine, ALT, nutrition scores and increase in HDL. SO cohort were observed for an increase in cholesterol, LDL, total protein and decrease in vitamin D. While O cohort showed an increase in triglyceride, cholesterol, LDL, total protein, glucose, insulin, WBC, uric acid, ALT and nutrition scores, but a decrease in HDL and vitamin D level. CONCLUSIONS Among individuals aged 50 years old or older in West China. S, O and SO participants demonstrate distinct differences in the life-styles, chronic disease profile, and metabolic profiles. The prevalence of S and SO has an aging increase pattern contrary to O. Both S and SO tend to be older, lower educational level, without spouse, smoking, comorbidity of chronic disease, poor nutrition status, depression and cognitive decline compared to H and S looks like to be worse than SO. Besides, the S subjects seem to have more metabolic index changes than SO compared to H. While O subjects have some contrary metabolic index to S subjects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Previous literature has reported that physical frailty (PF) closely associated with cognitive impairment (CI). In this study, we aim to describe and evaluate the prevalence and associated factors with different patterns of PF and cognitive impairment. DESIGN A cross-sectional study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS Community-dwelling older adults aged ≥60 from the West China Health and Aging Trend (WCHAT) study were included in this study. MEASUREMENTS Participants were assessed the PF and cognitive impairment. PF was assessed using the physical phenotype as defined by Fried's criteria. Cognitive impairment was identified using the Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire (SPMSQ). According different patterns of PF and cognitive impairment, participants were divided into 4 groups: not-PF and cognitive intact ( "neither" group), not-PF and cognitive impairment ("CI only" group), PF and cognitive intact ("PF only" group), and PF and cognitive impairment ("both" group). Multinomial logistic regression was used to explore the association between medical conditions and different patterns of PF and cognitive impairment after adjusting the demographic characteristics. RESULTS Among 4,103 participants (age 67.8 + 5.9 years, female 58.3%), 78.8%, 3.9%, 14.5% and 2.9% were "neither", "PF only", "CI only", and "both", respectively. The prevalence of "PF only", "CI only" and "both" were associated with age, lower education level and single status. In addition, there was substantial ethnicity heterogeneity in the prevalence of different patterns of PF and cognitive impairment. Comparing with "neither", PF and/or cognitive impairment had higher association with depression, ADLs impairment, and malnutrition. Of note, obesity was only significantly associated with "PF only", but not associated with "CI only" or "both". CONCLUSIONS We found the substantial demographic and medical conditions disparities in different patterns of PF and cognitive impairment. Further research should focus on the efficient and practical screen to predict the risk of "PF only", "CI only" and "both".

Abstract
Currents play critical roles in neurons. Direct observation of current flows in cells at nanometre dimensions and picoampere current resolution is still a daunting task. In this study, we investigated the current flows in hippocampal neurons, PC12 cells and astrocytes in response to voltages applied to the cell membranes using conductive atomic force microscopy (CAFM). The spines in the hippocampal neurons play crucial roles in nerve signal transfer. When the applied voltage was greater than 7.2 V, PC12 cells even show metallic nanowire-like characteristics. Both the cell body and glial filaments of astrocytes yielded CAFM test results that reflect different electrical conductance. To our best knowledge, the electrical characteristics and current transport through components of cells (especially neurons) in response to an applied external voltage have been revealed for the first time at nanometre dimensions and picoampere current levels. We believe that such studies will pave new ways to study and model the electrical characteristics and physiological behaviours in cells and other biological samples.

Abstract
Immune tolerance is one of the leading causes of chemotherapy resistance in carcinoma cases. Studies have shown that programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1), an inhibitory molecule expressed by cancer cells, plays a significant role in immune tolerance through the induction of T cell dysfunction. The results of our RNA sequencing in previous studies revealed that microRNA-145 (miR-145), which is known to be down-regulated by cisplatin in cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cells, also represses gene PD-L1 expression. However, the mechanism by which miR-145 contributes to regulate PD-L1 expression in cisplatin resistance of ovarian cancer is yet to be fully understood. Here, we show that cisplatin-mediated miR-145 down-regulation increased PD-L1 expression via targeting the c-Myc transcription factor, thereby inducing T cell apoptosis in vitro. We also report that expression of miR-145 is negatively correlated with PD-L1 expression in human ovarian cancer tissues, malignant grades and the recurrent risks of ovarian cancer after chemotherapy. In summary, our findings suggest that the miR-145/c-Myc/PD-L1 axis contributes to cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer and support that miR-145 might act as an adjuvant therapeutic target in chemotherapy of ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics of newly treated high-risk group neuroblastoma (NB) patients with bone marrow metastasis and to explore the prognostic factors. Methods: The clinical features (sex, age, stage, risk group, pathological type, metastatic site, etc.) of 203 newly treated high-risk NB patients with bone marrow metastasis admitted to Hematology Oncology Center, Beijing Children's Hospital from January 2007 to December 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 118 males (58.1%) and 85 females (41.9%). Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis and Cox regression was used to analyze the prognostic factors. Results: The age at onset of the 203 patients was 41 months (9-147 months). The metastatic sites at diagnosis were as follows: bone in 195 cases (96.1%), distant lymph nodes in 104 cases (51.2%), skull and endomeninx in 61 cases (30.0%), orbit in 30 cases (14.8%), pleura in 16 cases (7.9%), liver in 13 cases(6.4%), canalis spinalis in 13 cases (6.4%), other sites in 11 cases (5.4%) and skin and soft tissue in 10 cases (4.9%). In all, 194 cases were enrolled for prognostic analysis. The follow-up time was 36 months (1 day-138 months) , and the 5-years event free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) were 36.1% and 39.7%, respectively. A total of 118 patients (60.8%) had events (first relapse or death) with the time to event occurrence was 15 months (1 day-72 months), whereas 112 patients (57.7%) died with the event occurrence to death time was 3 months (1 day-21 months). There was no significant difference in 5-years OS between radiotherapy group and non-radiotherapy group (42.3% vs. 38.3%, χ(2)=3.671, P=0.055). The 5-years OS in transplantation group was significantly better than the non-transplantation group (44.3% vs. 35.5%, χ(2)=8.878, P=0.003), and the radiotherapy combined transplantation group also had a better 5-years OS rate than the non-radiotherapy combined transplantation group (45.8% vs. 37.3%, χ(2)=5.945, P=0.015). Univariate survival analysis showed lactate dehydrogenase ≥ 1 500 U/L, the amplification of MYCN, the metastatic sites of orbit, canalis spinalis and pleura were associated with poor prognosis of newly diagnosed high-risk NB patients (χ(2)=21.064, 13.601, 3.998, 6.183, 15.307, all P<0.05). The amplification of MYCN and the metastatic sites of pleura were risk factors for prognosis of newly diagnosed high-risk NB patients by Cox regression models (HR=1.896,1.100, 95%CI: 1.113-3.231, 1.020-1.187, both P<0.05). Conclusions: The prognosis is unfavorable in high-risk group NB patients with BM metastasis. Radiotherapy combined with transplantation can further improve the prognosis of these patients. The amplification of MYCN and the metastatic sites of pleura were the poor prognostic factors for high-risk NB patients with bone marrow metastasis.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the expression levels of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) protein and the change of MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratio in wound exudates of patients with stages Ⅲ and Ⅳ pressure ulcers during wound healing. Methods: From July 2017 to July 2018, 30 patients with stage Ⅲ pressure ulcers [30 wounds, 16 males and 14 females, aged (65±10) years] and 34 patients with stage Ⅳ pressure ulcers [50 wounds, 17 males and 17 females, aged (65±9) years] admitted to Hebei General Hospital who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled in this prospective cohort study. According to the principle of wound treatment and the characteristics and needs of wound in different periods, individualized intervention measures were formulated for patients and appropriate dressings were selected. At the time of admission and on 7, 14, 21, 28 days of treatment, the healing of pressure ulcer wounds was evaluated by Pressure Ulcer Healing Scale. Afterwards, the wound exudate was collected at each time point to detect the expression levels of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 protein by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and the MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratio was calculated. Data were processed with analysis of variance for repeated measurements of single group and linear trend test. Results: (1) There were significantly statistical differences in wound healing scores of patients with stages Ⅲ and Ⅳ pressure ulcers among the time of admission and on 7, 14, 21, 28 days of treatment within each stage (F=145.382, 153.234, P<0.01), and they all showed a gradually decreasing trend (F=170.466, 284.585, P<0.01). (2) At the time of admission and on 7, 14, 21, 28 days of treatment, the expression levels of MMP-9 protein in wound exudates of patients with stages Ⅲ and Ⅳ pressure ulcers were (171±104), (138±88), (110±70), (85±55), (62±41) ng/L and (193±107), (173±104), (139±83), (114±70), (89±56) ng/L, respectively. There were significantly statistical differences within each stage (F=58.007, 111.680, P<0.01), and they all showed a gradually decreasing trend (F=62.901, 134.628, P<0.01). At the time of admission and on 7, 14, 21, 28 days of treatment, the expression levels of TIMP-1 protein in wound exudates of patients with stages Ⅲ and Ⅳ pressure ulcers were (6.2±3.9), (5.6±3.4), (5.1±3.1), (4.4±2.5), (3.8±2.3) ng/L and (4.8±2.5), (4.7±2.6), (4.4±2.6), (4.6±2.7), (4.1±2.4) ng/L, respectively. There were significantly statistical differences within each stage (F=25.479, 7.778, P<0.01), and there was a gradually decreasing trend in stage Ⅲ (F=62.901, P<0.01) and a decreasing trend in stage Ⅳ (F=134.628, P<0.01). At the time of admission, the expression levels of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in wound exudates of patients with stage Ⅲ pressure ulcers were similar to those of patients with stage Ⅳ pressure ulcers (t=-1.03, 1.47, P>0.05). (3) At the time of admission and on 7, 14, 21, 28 days of treatment, the MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratios in the wound exudates of patients with pressure ulcers of stages Ⅲ and Ⅳ were 30±13, 25±9, 22±9, 20±8, 17±6 and 43±19, 37±13, 32±10, 26±9, 22±9, respectively. There were significantly statistical differences within each stage (F=37.173, 97.191, P<0.01), and they all showed a gradually decreasing trend (F=54.183, 130.088, P<0.01). At the time of admission, the MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratio in wound exudates of patients with stage Ⅳ pressure ulcers was significantly higher than that of patients with stage Ⅲ pressure ulcers (t=-3.42, P<0.01). Conclusions: During the wound healing process of patients with stages Ⅲ and Ⅳ pressure ulcers, the expression levels of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 protein and the MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratio in wound exudates show a decreasing trend. The stage of wound healing can be predicted according to the expression level of MMP-9 protein and the MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratio.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Accumulating data show that platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and neutrophil to monocyte ratio (NMR) undergo changes during inflammation in various diseases; however, the clinical features remain unclear in knee osteoarthritis (OA) patients. The purpose of our study was to evaluate PLR and NMR in knee OA patients, and assess their relationship to knee OA's radiographic grades. METHODS A retrospective study on 132 adult knee OA patients and 162 healthy controls (HC) was performed. All clinical characteristics of the knee OA patients were obtained from their medical records. PLR and NMR were compared between knee OA patients and HC by non-parametric tests. Correlations of PLR and NMR with Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) classification (KL grade 2, KL grade 3, and KL grade 4) were also analyzed through a Spearman correlation test. Ordinal polytomous logistic regression was used to determine independent factors influencing radiographic grades of knee OA patients. RESULTS PLR was increased significantly in knee OA patients, while a statistical difference in NMR was not observed. However, PLR was not relevant to KL grades, while NMR was negatively correlated with these (r = -0.330, P < 0.01) and was independently associated with KL grades of knee OA. CONCLUSION PLR could reflect the inflammation response of knee OA. NMR emerged as an independent factor and could be used as a potential marker indicating the severity of knee OA.

Abstract
Body conformation at birth and teat number are economically important traits in the pig industry, as these traits are usually explored to evaluate the growth and reproductive potential of piglets. To detect genetic loci and candidate genes for these traits, we performed a GWAS on 269 pigs from a recently developed Chinese breed (Sushan) using 38 128 informative SNPs on the Affymetrix Porcine SNP 55K Array. In total, we detected one genome-wide significant (P = 1.31e-6) SNP for teat number on chromosome X and 15 chromosome-wide significant SNPs for teat number, body weight, body length, chest circumference and cannon circumference at birth on chromosomes 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15, 17 and 18. The most significant SNP had an additive effect of 0.74 × total teat number, explaining 20% of phenotypic variance. Five significant SNPs resided in the previously reported quantitative trait loci for these traits and seven significant SNPs had a pleiotropic effect on multiple traits. Intriguingly, 12 of the genes nearest to the significant SNPs are functionally related to body conformation and teat number traits, including SPRED2, MKX, TMSB4X and ESR1. GO analysis revealed that candidate genes proximal to the significant SNPs were enriched in the G-protein coupled receptor and steroid hormone-mediated signaling pathway. Our findings shed light on the genetic basis of the measured traits and provide molecular markers especially for the genetic improvement of teat number in Sushan and related pigs.

Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs that are generated via alternative back-splicing, which connects the terminal 5′ and 3′ends. Due to their unique loop structure, circRNAs are resistant to ribonucleases and more stable than linear RNAs. In vivo, they are usually highly conserved and stably expressed in tissue/developmental-stage-specific manners. Generally, circRNAs function as microRNA sponges and splicing regulators, as well as in protein binding and transcription. Some circRNAs contain open reading frames with internal ribosomal entry site elements and can thus encode specific proteins. Previously, circRNAs were thought to be erroneous splicing products or by-products of mRNA splicing. With the development of the next-generation sequencing techniques, it has become increasingly clear that circRNAs are abundantly widespread in eukaryotes and that they play significant roles in malignant tumor progression. The present review briefly introduces the biogenesis and functions of circRNAs, as well as summarizes recent research in several common malignancies. The present review also addresses the prospects of circRNAs in clinical applications.

Abstract
Lensless imaging based on multi-wavelength phase retrieval becomes a promising technology widely used as it has simple acquisition, miniaturized size and low-cost setup. However, measuring the sample-to-sensor distance with high accuracy, which is the key for high-resolution reconstruction, is still a challenge. In this work, we propose a multi-wavelength criterion to realize autofocusing modulation, i.e., achieving much higher accuracy in determining the sample-to-sensor distance, compared to the conventional methods. Three beams in different spectrums are adopted to illuminate the sample, and the resulting holograms are recorded by a CCD camera. The patterns calculated by performing back propagation of the recorded holograms, with exhaustively searched sample-to-sensor distance value, are adopted to access the criterion. Image sharpness can be accessed and the optimal sample-to-sensor distance can be finely determined by targeting the valley of the curve given by the criterion. Through our novel multi-wavelength based autofocusing strategy and executing further phase retrieval process, high-resolution images can be finally retrieved. The applicability and robustness of our method is validated both in simulations and experiments. Our technique provides a useful tool for multi-wavelength lensless imaging under limited experimental conditions.

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
Confocal microscopy has the advantages of high resolution and optical sectioning ability over conventional microscopy. However, aberration induced by the optical system can compromise these advantages and considerably reduce the energy reaching the pointlike detector. We propose an accurate aberration correction method with a liquid-crystal spatial light modulator (LCSLM) in the confocal system. Each coefficient of Zernike aberration modes is calculated by directly measuring the variance of the images with different bias aberration modes. Large-coefficient (>0.7 rad) aberration is compensated first by LCSLM, following which aberrations with small coefficients are measured precisely, minimizing the cross talk between different kinds of aberrations. With this predistortion strategy, the aberration correction is much more accurate, and maximum image intensity in the normal and nonconjugated systems is improved by 2.5 times and 4 times compared to the normal correction method, respectively, demonstrating the effectiveness of our method.

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.
