Abstract
The outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic has aroused tremendous attention toward personal protective equipment (PPE) in both scientific research and industrial manufacture. Despite decades of development in PPE design and fabrication, there's still much room for further optimization, in terms, of both protection performance and wear comfort. Interdisciplinary efforts have been devoted to this research field in recent years. Significantly, the innovation of materials, which brings about improved performance and versatile new functions for PPEs, has been widely adopted in PPE design. In this minireview, recent progress in the development of novel materials and structural designs for PPE application are presented in detail with the introduction of various material-based strategies for different PPE types, as well as the examples, which apply auxiliary components into face masks to enrich the functionalities and improve the personal feelings in the pandemic period.

Abstract
Background Deoxyuracil triphosphate nucleotide (dUTP) pyrophosphatase (dUTPase, DU) is an enzyme of caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus (CAEV) that minimizes incorporation of dUTP into the DNA. Caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus relies partly on its ability to escape from innate immunity to cause persistent infections. Interferon β (IFN-β) is an important marker for evaluating the innate immune system, and it has a broad spectrum of antiviral activity. Aims This study was conducted to investigate the details of the IFN-β response to CAEV infection. Methods The expression of IFN-β and the proliferation of Sendai virus (SeV) and vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) were determined by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). The effect of DU on the IFN signaling pathway was evaluated using luciferase reporter assays. Results In our study, the expression of IFN-β was significantly inhibited and the proliferation of SeV and VSV was promoted in cells overexpressing CAEV-DU. DU affected interferon stimulated response element (ISRE) and IFN-β promoter activities induced by RIG-I/MDA5/MAVS/TBK1 pathway, while did not affect them induced by interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3-5D). Conclusion DU protein downregulated the production of IFN-β by inhibiting the activity of the signal transduction molecules upstream of IRF3, thereby, helping CAEV escape innate immunity. Findings of this work provide an evidence to understand the persistent infection and multiple system inflammation of CAEV.

Abstract
(Quasi-)one-dimensional systems exhibit various fascinating properties such as Luttinger liquid behavior, Peierls transition, novel topological phases, and the accommodation of unique quasiparticles (e.g., spinon, holon, and soliton, etc.). Here we study molybdenum blue bronze A0.3MoO3 (A = K, Rb), a canonical quasi-one-dimensional charge-density-wave material, using laser-based angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Our experiment suggests that the normal phase of A0.3MoO3 is a prototypical Luttinger liquid, from which the charge-density-wave emerges with decreasing temperature. Prominently, we observe strong renormalizations of band dispersions, which are recognized as the spectral function of Holstein polaron derived from band-selective electron-phonon coupling in the system. We argue that the strong electron-phonon coupling plays an important role in electronic properties and the charge-density-wave transition in blue bronzes. Our results not only reconcile the long-standing heavy debates on the electronic properties of blue bronzes but also provide a rare platform to study interesting excitations in Luttinger liquid materials.

Abstract
We present a search for the decays of a neutral scalar boson produced by kaons decaying at rest, in the context of the Higgs portal model, using the MicroBooNE detector. We analyze data triggered in time with the Fermilab NuMI neutrino beam spill, with an exposure of 1.93×10^{20} protons on target. We look for monoenergetic scalars that come from the direction of the NuMI hadron absorber, at a distance of 100 m from the detector, and decay to electron-positron pairs. We observe one candidate event, with a standard model background prediction of 1.9±0.8. We set an upper limit on the scalar-Higgs mixing angle of θ<(3.3-4.6)×10^{-4} at the 95% confidence level for scalar boson masses in the range (100-200) MeV/c^{2}. We exclude, at the 95% confidence level, the remaining model parameters required to explain the central value of a possible excess of K_{L}^{0}→π^{0}νν[over ¯] decays reported by the KOTO collaboration. We also provide a model-independent limit on a new boson X produced in K→πX decays and decaying to e^{+}e^{-}.

Abstract
Many studies have associated altered intestinal bacterial communities and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, but the putative effects are inconclusive. The purpose of this network meta-analysis (NMA) was to evaluate the effects of probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease through randomised intervention trials. Literature searches were performed until March 2020. For each outcome, a random NMA was performed, the surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) was determined. A total of 22 randomised trials comparing prebiotic, probiotic, and synbiotic treatments included 1301 participants. Considering all seven results (aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, body mass index, weight, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol) together, the highest SUCRA values are probiotics (94%), synbiotics (61%) and prebiotics (56%), respectively. NMA results provide evidence that probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics can alleviate non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. However, due to the lack of high-quality randomised trials, this research also has some limitations.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the immunogenicity and persistence of hepatitis B vaccine in HIV-infected patients with different CD4+T cell (CD4) levels, and analyze the influence effect of CD4 levels on immunization response. Methods: A total of 182 HIV-infected patients who participated in a randomized controlled trial of 20 µg and 60 µg hepatitis B vaccination at month 0, 1, and 6 in 2014 by Guangxi Zhuang Atonomous Region CDC and Ningming county CDC were surveyed. Six months later after the first dose and 1 month, 6 months, 1 year, and 3 years later after the full course of the vaccination, 5 ml of the venous blood of the patients was collected, and the anti-HBs was detected by Chemiluminescent Microparticle Immunoassay (CMIA). On the basis of previous studies, this study focused on analyzing the immunogenicity and persistence of hepatitis B vaccine under different CD4 levels. Results: One month later after the whole course of hepatitis B vaccination, the anti-HBs geometric mean concentration (GMC), anti-HBs positive rate (≥10 mIU/ml) and strong positive rate (≥100 mIU/ml) in HIV patients with CD4 <350 cells/µl were 442.50 mIU/ml, 71.05% (27/38) and 44.74% (17/38), respectively, which were significantly lower than those HIV-infected patients with CD4 ≥350 cells/µl [583.90 mIU/ml, 92.13% (117/127) and 77.95% (99/127)] (P<0.05). After controlling the confounding factors, the probability of being anti-HBs positive induced by hepatitis B vaccine in patients with CD4 <350 cells/µl was 0.14 times higher than in those with CD4≥350 cells/µl (95%CI: 0.03-0.62), and patients with CD4 <350 cells/µl had higher risk of no response. From 6 months to 3 years after the whole course of the vaccination, the anti-HBs GMC (195.00-27.55 mIU/ml vs. 300.10-45.81 mIU/ml), the positive rate (56.67%-36.67% vs. 78.57%- 51.58%) and the strong positive rate (33.33%-6.67% vs.44.64%-15.79%) in patients with CD4 <350 cells/µl gradually declined, lower than the levels in those with CD4 ≥350 cells/µl. Conclusions: HIV-infected patients with CD4 <350 cells/µl have high risk of no response to hepatitis B vaccination and poor immune persistence. It is necessary to strengthen the anti-HBs monitoring in HIV-infected patients, with special attention to those with CD4 <350 cells/µl. When anti-HBs is negative, hepatitis B vaccine should be injected as early as possible.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the anti-HBs level in maintained hemodialysis patients one year after receiving 20 μg and 60 μg hepatitis B vaccination at 0, 1 and 6 months, and explore the influence factors for the immunity persistence and their interactions. Methods: Based on a randomized controlled trial of 20 μg and 60 μg hepatitis B vaccine immunization in maintained hemodialysis patients at 0, 1, and 6 months, follow up was conducted for the patients for one year after the completion of the vaccination for the quantitative detection of anti-HBs, and χ2 test, t test, unconditional logistic regression and interaction analyses were used for statistical analysis. Results: One year after the vaccination, 125 and 124 patients in the 20 μg and 60 μg groups were tested for anti-HBs, respectively. The positive rate of anti-HBs in the 60 μg group (77.42%, 96/124) was significantly higher than that in the 20 μg group (65.60%, 82/125) (P<0.05). After adjusting for the confounding factors, the positive probability of anti-HBs in the 60 μg group was 1.925 times higher than that in the 20 μg group (95%CI: 1.068-3.468). Patients with hemodialysis duration ≥5 years (OR=0.523, 95%CI: 0.293-0.935) and diabetes mellitus (OR=0.376, 95%CI: 0.173-0.818) had lower positive probability of anti-HBs. Moreover, there were additive and multiplicative interactions between hemodialysis duration ≥5 years and diabetes mellitus. Conclusions: The immunity persistence after one year in 60 μg hepatitis B vaccination group was longer than that in 20 μg hepatitis B vaccination group in maintained hemodialysis patients, vaccine dose, hemodialysis duration and diabetes mellitus were the influencing factors for the immunity persistence, there were additive and multiplicative interactions between hemodialysis duration ≥5 years and diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Structural variations (SVs, defined as DNA variants ≥50 bp) have been associated with various complex human diseases. However, research to screen the whole genome for SVs predisposing to psoriasis is still lacking. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the association of SVs and psoriasis. METHODS We performed a genome-wide screen on SVs using an imputation method on 5 independent cohorts with 45,386 subjects from the Chinese Han population. Fine mapping analysis, genetic interaction analysis and RNA expression analysis were conducted to explore the mechanism of SVs. RESULTS We obtained 4,535 SVs in total and identified 2 novel deletions (esv3608550, OR=2.73, P<2.00×10-308 ; esv3608542, OR=0.47, P=7.40×10-28 ) at 6q21.33 (MHC), 1 novel Alu element insertion (esv3607339, OR=1.22, P=1.18×10-35 ) at 5q33.3 (IL12B), and confirmed 1 previously reported deletion (esv3587563, OR=1.30, P=9.52×10-60 ) at 1q21.2 (LCE) for psoriasis. Fine mapping analysis including SNPs and small Insertions/Deletions (InDels) revealed that esv3608550 and esv3608542 were independently associated with psoriasis, and a novel independent SNP (rs9378188, OR=1.65, P=3.46×10-38 ) was identified at 6q21.33. By genetic interaction analysis and RNA expression analysis, we speculate that the association of 2 deletions at 6q21.33 with psoriasis might relate to their influence on the expression of HLA-C. CONCLUSIONS Our study constructed the most comprehensive SV map for psoriasis thus far and enriched the genetic architecture and pathogenesis of psoriasis as well as highlighted the nonnegligible impact of SVs on complex diseases.

Abstract
In this Letter, we theoretically propose and experimentally demonstrate a three-dimensional soundproof acoustic cage structure, hereby denoted as an acoustic metacage. The metacage is composed of six acoustic metamaterial slabs with open holes and hidden bypass space coiling tunnels connected to the holes. Band structure analysis reveals a novel physical mechanism to open a low-frequency broad partial band gap via the band folding in other directions, which can also be interpreted by an effective medium with indefinite effective mass density and negative effective modulus. Transmission loss in simulations and in the acoustic impedance tube are administered. Strikingly, we prove that the soundproofing effect of the metacage is robust against the airflow perturbation induced by a fan. Our work paves a road for low-frequency airborne soundproof structures in the presence of ventilation.

Abstract
Study question
If the elective single-blastocyst transfer (eSBT) strategy can be applied to women aged 36 or older.
Summary answer
In women ≥36 years old with at least two blastocysts, eSBT increased cumulative livebirth rate (LBR) while minimizing twins compared with double blastocyst transfer (DBT). What is known already: In young women with a good prognosis, eSBT policy is an accepted strategy to maintain LBR while decreasing multiple gestation. However, in many areas of the world DBT is still applied in older women.
Study design, size, duration
We performed a retrospective cohort study of 429 women aged ≥36 years or older who received IVF ovarian stimulation cycles between Jan 2015 and Oct 2018 and who had at least two blastocysts. Women were followed up until Oct 2020 for their fertility outcomes including cumulative live birth and multiple pregnancies. The study was performed at the Northwest Women and Children’s Hospital, Xi’an, China.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Out of 429 women, 240 underwent a fresh cycle of eSBT and 189 DBT. The subsequent frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles were a combination of single- and double- blastocyst transfers, more commonly the latter. Analysis was stratified for patients in age groups 36–37, 38–39 and ≥40 and quality of the blastocyst transferred, as graded by morphological examination. Outcomes were the LBR in the fresh cycle, cumulative LBR and multiple rate after fresh and frozen embryo transfers.
Main results and the role of chance
The cumulative LBR was 74.2% (178/240) for eSBT versus 63.0% (119/189) for DBT (OR = 1.69, 95%CI 1.12–2.56), irrespective of female age. The multiple rate was 9% (16/178) after eSBT versus 29.4% (35/119) after DBT (P- value < .001). The total number of children born was 194 after eSBT versus 154 after DBT. Stratified by female age, the cumulative LBRs in women aged 36–37 (78.9 vs 70.5%), 38–39 (68.9 and 61.1%) and ≥ 40 years (59.3 and 47.5%), were higher after eSBT compared with DBT, however, the differences did not reach statistical significance in each subgroups. LBRs in the fresh cycles were comparable for patients with eSBT compared with DBT (52.1% vs. 52.4%, OR = 0.99, 95%CI 0.68–1.45). In women < 40 years, DBT resulted in a small non-significant increase in LBR in the fresh transfer (63.2% vs. 61.2%, 95%CI=0.64–1.85, 36–37 years; 48.1% vs. 41.0%, 95%CI=0.64–2.80, 38–39 years) at the expense of a marked increase in twinning rate (0–5.4% vs. 31.7–34.6%). For women ≥40 years, no significant differences were observed in the LBR (37.0% vs 45%, 95%CI 0.47–4.07) or twinning rate (0 vs 7.7%) between eSBT and DBT group. The findings persisted with and without accounting for quality of the blastocyst transferred.
Limitations, reasons for caution
This study is limited by its observational character.
Wider implications of the findings: In women ≥36 years with two blastocysts, eSBT should be the preferred treatment which maximizes the cumulative LBR for a decrease in the rate of multiple pregnancies.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the effect of video distraction on preoperative separation anxiety and induction compliance of preschool children receiving strabismus surgery under general anesthesia. Methods: In this prospective trial, 80 children aged 3 to 6 years scheduled for strabismus surgery under inhalation anesthesia were randomly allocated to one of two groups, a control group and a video distraction group, with 40 cases in each group. Children in the video distraction group continuously watched videos from waiting in the holding area, separating with parents, entering the operating room and induction of anesthesia, while children in the control group didn't watch videos during the same process. The modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (mYPAS) of children were recorded upon arriving at the holding area(T1)and separating with parents(T2). Induction Compliance Checklist (ICC) score was recorded when the anesthesia induction was performed. The emergence time, the occurrence rate of adverse events in post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) including nausea and vomiting, laryngospasm, severe cough, hypoxemia and sinus bradycardia, incidence of postoperative adverse reactions such as pain, dizziness, nausea and vomiting and lethargy, the parents' satisfaction of anesthesia were also assessed. Results: There were no significant difference in mYPAS score and the proportion of mYPAS score>30 between 2 groups at T1 (all P>0.05). At T2, the mYPAS score and the proportion of mYPAS score>30 in video distraction group were (34.41±13.23) and 52.50%, which were lower than those in control group (50.64±20.96, 87.50%) with statistically significant difference (all P<0.05). The ICC score of video distraction group was lower than that of the control group, which was (1.83±2.26) vs (4.03±2.99), and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The proportion of children with ICC score=0 in video distraction group was 37.50%, which was higher than that in the control group (12.50%), while the proportion of children with ICC score=4-10 was lower than that of the control group, which was 17.50% vs 45.00%, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). No significant intergroup differences were observed in emergence time, incidence of adverse events in PACU, and incidence of postoperative adverse reactions (P>0.05). The parents' satisfaction of anesthesia in the video distraction group was (9.23±0.89), which was higher than that in the control group (8.63±1.23), with statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: Preoperative video distraction alleviates separation anxiety, improves induction compliance of preschool children receiving strabismus surgery under general anesthesia, and increases the parents' satisfaction of anesthesia.

Abstract
Background:Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) have a substantially increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). An individual VTE risk assessment is important to ensure that all patients are assessed and given adequate thromboprophylaxis.Objectives:We conducted this study to develop a risk score for VTE in patients with SLE.Methods:Patients with SLE who participated in the Chinese SLE Treatment and Research group were enrolled in this study. Patient baseline information and clinical laboratory indicators were obtained, and VTE events were recorded every 3-6 months during follow-up visits. The risk prediction model was created and internally validated using the bootstrap methods, and a scoring system was established (Figure 1).Figure 1.Flow chart of study design.Results:Out of 4,502 patients included in this study, 135 had a VTE event. After univariate analysis and Lasso regression, the following 11 variables were identified and included in the risk prediction model: male sex, age, BMI ≥25 kg/m2, hyperlipidemia, hypoalbuminemia, hsCRP>3 mg/L, renal involvement, nervous system involvement, anti-β2-glycoprotein I antibody positivity, lupus anticoagulant positivity, and no use of hydroxychloroquine. The AUC for the SLE-VTE score (Table 1) was 0.947 (95% CI, 0.9249-0.9694). The SLE-VTE score’s sensitivity and specificity with the optimal cutoff value of 13 were 0.919 and 0.881, respectively. The SLE-VTE score was superior to the GAPSS system in predicting the risk of VTE in patients with SLE (AUC= 0.947 vs. 0.680, P< 0.001; integrated discrimination improvement (IDI)= 0.6652, P< 0.001; net reclassification improvement (NRI)= 0.6652, P< 0.001).Table 1.Final multivariable analysis for venous thromboembolism risk in patients with SLE β coefficientsOdds ratio* (95% CI)P-valuePoints in scoring systemMale0.6211.86(0.953-3.503)0.0612Age at study entry(≥50)0.8372.308(1.339-3.915)0.0023BMI02(kg/m20.7922.209(1.333-3.627)0.0023Hyperlipemia0.8382.313(1.246-4.166)0.0063Hypoalbuminemia2.1638.697(5.185-14.794)< 0.0017hsCRP>3 mg/L1.4524.272(2.618-6.968)< 0.0015Anti β2GPI1.0132.754(1.543-4.853)0.0013LA1.5594.752(2.799-8.072)< 0.0015Nervous system2.38210.832(6.163-18.998)< 0.0018Lupus nephritis0.8352.305(1.414-3.756)0.0013No use of hydroxychloroquine1.7715.876(3.722-9.401)< 0.0016BMI: body mass index; hsCRP: Hypersensitive c-reactive protein; ACL: anticardiolipin, antiβ2GPI: anti-β2-glycoprotein I, LA: lupus anticoagulantm;Values in bold are statistically significant at p <0.05.Conclusion:Various factors are related to the occurrence of VTE in patients with SLE.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In this meta-analysis, we analyzed 9 cross-sectional studies for an association between type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and bone mineral density (BMD) in children. We found that BMD Z-scores were significantly reduced in children with T1DM. INTRODUCTION Recent cross-sectional studies have examined how T1DM influences bone health in children and adolescents, but the relationship between T1DM and BMD remains unclear due to conflicting reports. METHODS In this meta-analysis, we systematically searched PubMed, Cochrane library, and Web of Science databases (for publications through March 12, 2020), and calculated weight mean difference (WMD) along with 95% confidence intervals (CI) using a random-effects model. Heterogeneity was evaluated using the I2 method. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used to assess the quality of the included studies. RESULTS Data were analyzed from 9 eligible studies, including a total of 1522 children and adolescents. These data were tested for an association between T1DM and BMD. This analysis found a significant decrease in BMD Z-score in the whole body (pooled WMD, - 0.47, 95% CI, - 0.92 to - 0.02, I2 = 80.2%) and lumbar spine (pooled WMD, - 0.41, 95% CI, - 0.69 to - 0.12, I2 = 80.3%) in children and adolescents with T1DM, which was consistent in published studies from Asia and South America, but inconsistent in the North America and Europe. Importantly, the differences in BMD Z-scores were independent of age, level of glucose control (HbA1c), and prepubertal stage. Sensitivity analyses did not modify these findings. Funnel plot and the Egger test did not reveal significant publication bias. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis suggests that T1DM may play a role in decreasing BMD Z-scores in the whole body and lumbar spine in children.

Abstract
Background:Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease with highly heterogeneous clinical presentation characterized by disease unpredictable flares and multi-systemic involvement1 2. This clinical heterogeneity calls for design a molecular stratification to improve clinical trial design and formulate personalization treatment therapies.Objectives:This research was conducted to develop a reliable method to stratify SLE patients combined gene expression information and disease status.Methods:The mRNA expression profile of GSE138458 (contained 307 patients and 23 controls) and GSE49454 (contained 111 patients and 16 controls) were downloaded from the publicly GEO databases. After background adjustment, batch correction, and other pre-procession, obtaining a big gene matrix to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in SLE compared with healthy controls, which were screened by P value < 0.01. SLE subtypes were identified by non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) based on DEGs. Acquired signature genes in different SLE subtypes were conducted to process pathway enrichment analysis in Metascape. SLEDAI score and immune cell infiltration was also performed between subtypes by software package R (version 4.0.3).Results:Total 1202 DEGs were imputed to NMF unsupervised machine learning method. Patients with SLE were stratified into two subsets based on 184 signature genes derived from obtained DEGs(Fig.1A, 1B). GO and KEGG enrichment analysis showed that signature genes were mainly involved in negative regulation of innate immune response, toll-like receptor signaling pathway, regulation of immune effector process and so on(Fig.1C). Patients in Sub1 group had severe disease activity measures compared with those in Sub2(Fig.1D). SLEDAI scores from GSE49454 dataset were also higher in Sub1 compare with Sub2(Fig.1E). Further, immune cell infiltration results revealed an insufficient of regulatory T cell, CD8 T cells and naive CD4 T cells in Sub1 and neutrophils cells in Sub2(P<0.05)(Fig.1F).Conclusion:Our findings indicate that patients with SLE could be stratified into 2 subtypes which had different lymphocyte status and closely related to disease activity. This phenotyping may help us understand the etiology of the disease, inform patient in the design of clinical trials and guide treatment decision.References:[1]Dorner T, Furie R.
