Abstract
The kilometer square array (KM2A) of the large high altitude air shower observatory (LHAASO) aims at surveying the northern γ-ray sky at energies above 10 TeV with unprecedented sensitivity. γ-ray observations have long been one of the most powerful tools for dark matter searches, as, e.g., high-energy γ rays could be produced by the decays of heavy dark matter particles. In this Letter, we present the first dark matter analysis with LHAASO-KM2A, using the first 340 days of data from 1/2-KM2A and 230 days of data from 3/4-KM2A. Several regions of interest are used to search for a signal and account for the residual cosmic-ray background after γ/hadron separation. We find no excess of dark matter signals, and thus place some of the strongest γ-ray constraints on the lifetime of heavy dark matter particles with mass between 10^{5} and 10^{9} GeV. Our results with LHAASO are robust, and have important implications for dark matter interpretations of the diffuse astrophysical high-energy neutrino emission.

Abstract
A molecular dysprosium(III) complex [Dy(DClQ)3(H2O)2] (1) was used as a building unit for the construction of lanthanide SMMs, leading to the isolation of two dinuclear Dy(III) complexes, namely [Dy2(DClQ)6(MeOH)2] (2) and [Dy2(DClQ)6(bpmo)2]·6MeCN (3) (DClQ = 5,7-dichloro-8-hydroxyquinoline, bpmo = 4,4'-dipyridine-oxide). Structural analyses revealed the same N3O5 coordination environment of the Dy(III) centers with a distorted biaugmented trigonal prism (C2V symmetry) and triangular dodecahedron (D2d symmetry) for 2 and 3, respectively. Magnetic studies revealed the presence of ferromagnetic and weak antiferromagnetic exchange interactions between the Dy3+ centers in 2 and 3, respectively. Interestingly, slow relaxation of magnetization at zero fields was evidenced with an Ueff of 51.4 K and 159.0 K for complexes 2 and 3, respectively. The detailed analysis of relaxation dynamics discloses that the Orbach process is dominant for 2 whereas Raman and QTM play an important role in 3. Theoretical calculations were carried out to provide insight into the magnetic exchange interactions and relaxation dynamics for the complexes. Due to a single-ion magnet (SIM) of 1, the foregoing results demonstrate a SIM modular synthetic route for the preparation of dinuclear lanthanide SMMs.

Abstract
β decay of proton-rich nuclei plays an important role in exploring isospin mixing. The β decay of ^{26}P at the proton drip line is studied using double-sided silicon strip detectors operating in conjunction with high-purity germanium detectors. The T=2 isobaric analog state (IAS) at 13 055 keV and two new high-lying states at 13 380 and 11 912 keV in ^{26}Si are unambiguously identified through β-delayed two-proton emission (β2p). Angular correlations of two protons emitted from ^{26}Si excited states populated by ^{26}P β decay are measured, which suggests that the two protons are emitted mainly sequentially. We report the first observation of a strongly isospin-mixed doublet that deexcites mainly via two-proton decay. The isospin mixing matrix element between the ^{26}Si IAS and the nearby 13 380-keV state is determined to be 130(21) keV, and this result represents the strongest mixing, highest excitation energy, and largest level spacing of a doublet ever observed in β-decay experiments.

Abstract
Background Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are closely related to osteoporosis. To test their causal relationship, we conducted a Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Methods We analyzed the causal relationship between four PUFAs measures, n-3 PUFAs (n-3), n-6 PUFAs (n-6), the ratio of n-3 PUFAs to total fatty acids (n-3 pct), and the ratio of n-6 PUFAs to n-3 PUFAs (n-6 to n-3), and five measures of osteoporosis, including estimated bone mineral density (eBMD), forearm (FA) BMD, femoral neck (FN) BMD, lumbar spine (LS) BMD, and fracture, using two-sample MR analysis. In order to verify the direct effect between PUFAs and BMD, we chose interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-β (TNF-β), and bone morphogenetic proteins 7 (BMP-7), three markers or cytokines strongly related to BMD, as possible confounding factors, and analyzed the possible causal relationships between them and PUFAs or BMD by MR. Inverse variance weighting (IVW), MR-Egger, weighted and weighted median were conducted. MR Pleiotropy RESidual Sum and Outlier (MR-PRESSO) and MR-Egger regression methods were used to evaluate the potential pleiotropy of instrumental variables (IVs) and outliers were identified by MR-PRESSO. Cochran's Q statistic was used to detect the heterogeneity among IVs. Leave-one-out sensitivity analysis was used to find SNPs that have a significant impact on the results. All results were corrected by the Bonferroni correction. Results The IVW results showed that n-3 PUFAs (OR = 1.030, 95% CI: 1.013, 1.047, P = 0.001) and n-6 PUFAs (OR = 1.053, 95% CI: 1.034, 1.072, P < 0.001) were positively correlated with eBMD, while n-6 to n-3 (OR = 0.947, 95% CI: 0.924, 0.970, P < 0.001) were negatively correlated with eBMD. These casual relationships still existed after Bonferroni correction. There were positive effects of n-3 PUFAs on FA BMD (OR = 1.090, 95% CI: 1.011, 1.176, P = 0.025) and LS BMD (OR = 1.056, 95% CI: 1.011, 1.104, P = 0.014), n-3 pct on eBMD (OR = 1.028, 95% CI: 1.002, 1.055, P = 0.035) and FA BMD (OR = 1.090, 95% CI: 1.011, 1.174, P = 0.025), n-6 to n-3 on LS BMD (OR = 1.071, 95% CI: 1.021, 1.124, P = 0.005); negative effects of n-3 pct on fracture (OR = 0.953, 95% CI: 0.918, 0.988, P = 0.009) and n-6 to n-3 on FA BMD (OR = 0.910, 95% CI: 0.837, 0.988, P = 0.025). However, these causal effects all disappeared after Bonferroni correction (all P > 0.0025). None of IL-6, TNF-β, and BMP-7 had a causal effect on PUFA and BMD simultaneously (all P > 0.05). Conclusion Evidence from this MR study supports the genetically predicted causal effects of n-3, n-6, n-3 pct, and n-6 to n-3 on eBMD. In addition, n-3 not only associate with FA BMD and LS BMD through its own level and n-6 to n-3, but also link to fracture through n-3 pct.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a raising concern of a higher infectious Omicron BA.2 variant and the latest BA.4, BA.5 variant, made it more difficult in the mitigation process against COVID-19 pandemic. Our study aimed to find optimal control strategies by transmission of dynamic model from novel invasion theory. METHODS Based on the public data sources from January 31 to May 31, 2022, in four cities (Nanjing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Suzhou) of China. We segmented the theoretical curves into five phases based on the concept of biological invasion. Then, a spatial autocorrelation analysis was carried out by detecting the clustering of the studied areas. After that, we choose a mathematical model of COVID-19 based on system dynamics methodology to simulate numerous intervention measures scenarios. Finally, we have used publicly available migration data to calculate spillover risk. RESULTS Epidemics in Shanghai and Shenzhen has gone through the entire invasion phases, whereas Nanjing and Suzhou were all ended in the establishment phase. The results indicated that Rt value and public health and social measures (PHSM)-index of the epidemics were a negative correlation in all cities, except Shenzhen. The intervention has come into effect in different phases of invasion in all studied cities. Until the May 31, most of the spillover risk in Shanghai remained above the spillover risk threshold (18.81-303.84) and the actual number of the spillovers (0.94-74.98) was also increasing along with the time. Shenzhen reported Omicron cases that was only above the spillover risk threshold (17.92) at the phase of outbreak, consistent with an actual partial spillover. In Nanjing and Suzhou, the actual number of reported cases did not exceed the spillover alert value. CONCLUSIONS Biological invasion is positioned to contribute substantively to understanding the drivers and mechanisms of the COVID-19 spread and outbreaks. After evaluating the spillover risk of cities at each invasion phase, we found the dynamic zero-COVID strategy implemented in four cities successfully curb the disease epidemic peak of the Omicron variant, which was highly correlated to the way to perform public health and social measures in the early phases right after the invasion of the virus.

Abstract
Clinoptilolite and sodium polyacrylate (Na-PAA) were used as water-retaining agents to improve the water-holding capacity of compacted clay cover (CCC). The optimum moisture content and Atterberg limits of the CCC modified by clinoptilolite and Na-PAA were studied. The soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) of the CCC modified by clinoptilolite and Na-PAA was studied. The mesostructure of the CCC was analyzed by polarized light microscopy. The test results show that: (1) the optimum moisture content and liquid limit of the CCC modified by clinoptilolite and Na-PAA increased, while the maximum dry density decreased; (2) the SWCC of the CCC modified by clinoptilolite and Na-PAA shifts to the upper right, and the volume moisture content of modified CCC is higher than that of unmodified CCC under the same matrix suction; (3) compared with the unmodified CCC, the air-entry value (AEV) of the clinoptilolite-modified CCC increased by 65.18% at most, and the AEV of the further modified CCC with Na-PAA in-creased by about two times; and (4) the flocculation structure and porosity of modified CCC decreased, and the porosity was distributed uniformly.

Abstract
This paper describes a catalytic asymmetric Staudinger-aza-Wittig reaction of (o-azidoaryl)malonates, allowing access to chiral quaternary oxindoles through phosphine oxide catalysis. We designed a novel HypPhos oxide catalyst to enable the desymmetrizing Staudinger-aza-Wittig reaction through the PIII/PV═O redox cycle in the presence of a silane reductant and an IrI-based Lewis acid. The reaction occurs under mild conditions, with good functional group tolerance, a wide substrate scope, and excellent enantioselectivity. Density functional theory revealed that the enantioselectivity in the desymmetrizing reaction arose from the cooperative effects of the IrI species and the HypPhos catalyst. The utility of this methodology is demonstrated by the (formal) syntheses of seven alkaloid targets: (-)-gliocladin C, (-)-coerulescine, (-)-horsfiline, (+)-deoxyeseroline, (+)-esermethole, (+)-physostigmine, and (+)-physovenine.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical features of patients with cardiac metastases from digestive system tumors. Methods: This retrospective study collected and analyzed the medical records of patients with cardiac metastases from digestive system tumors who received treatments in the Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences between January 1999 and January 2021. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis. Results: A total of 19 patients were identified. The primary tumors were esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (n=7), gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (n=6), hepatobiliary cancers (n=3) and colorectal cancers (n=3). 16 patients had pericardial metastases, 2 patients had right atrium metastases, and 1 patient had left ventricle metastasis. The most common symptom was dyspnea, which was present in 8 cases. 7 patients received locoregional treatment, while 11 patients underwent systemic therapies. The median overall survival from diagnosis of primary cancer was 31.4 months, and the median overall survival time from diagnosis of cardiac metastasis was 4.7 months. Conclusion: Cardiac metastasis from digestive system tumors is associated with low incidence and a poor prognosis. Systemic treatment remains the cornerstone of management, while novel anti-tumor drugs may improve therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
Objective: To propose a method to judge the safety of axial pedicle screw placement based on the position of the tip of the screw trajectory on the anteroposterior and lateral X-ray radiographs. Methods: The cervical CT data of 40 patients admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from December 2020 to December 2021 were selected, including 24 males and 16 females, with a mean age of (47.6±13.2) years. Based on the three-dimensional model reconstruction of Mimics software and its function of X-ray, the transmission of the axial pedicle screw and its anteroposterior and lateral films was simulated. The position of the tip of the simulated screw trajectory was divided into 5 regions (regions Ⅰ-Ⅴ) from the inside to the outside on the anteroposterior virtual radiographs, and the upper and lower regions (regions a, b) on the lateral virtual radiographs. By adjusting the direction of the screw, the tip of the screw was located in the corresponding 10 regions (80 screws in each area) on the virtual projections of the anteroposterior and lateral virtual radiographs respectively, and its accuracy was analyzed by CT to determine whether each screw penetrated the medial wall of the pedicle or vertebral artery foramen. The anteroposterior and lateral X-rays and postoperative CT data of 34 patients who underwent axial pedicle screw placement (67 axial pedicle screws were placed in total) from January 2014 to December 2021 were collected, including 18 males and 16 females, with a mean age of (45.8±14.1) years. The position of the tip of the screw trajectory on the anteroposterior and lateral films was divided in the same way. The number of screws in the corresponding 10 positions was counted, and CT analysis was used to determine whether each screw penetrated the medial wall of the axial pedicle or the vertebral artery foreman. Results: The results of the imaging simulation screw placement study showed that the perforation rate of the vertebral artery foramen in region Ⅳ and Ⅴ was 75.0% (120/160) and 100% (160/160), respectively, while the perforation rate of the medial wall of the axial pedicle in the region Ⅰ was 85.6%(137/160). The failure rate in regions Ⅱ and Ⅲ was relatively lower, and the performance of simulated screws located in the region a was better than those in region b. The perforation rates of the medial wall in regions (a-Ⅱ) and (a-Ⅲ) was 7.5% (6/80) and 0 (0/80), respectively, and the perforation rates of the vertebral foramen was 0 (0/80) and 21.3% (17/80), respectively. The retrospective imaging study also showed a higher rate of placement failure in regions Ⅰ, Ⅳ and Ⅴ, and relatively lower in regions Ⅱ and Ⅲ. There were total of 15 screws in region a-Ⅱ and a-Ⅲ, and no destruction of the medial wall of the axial pedicle and the vertebral artery foreman occurred there. Conclusions: Regions a-Ⅱ and a-Ⅲ are the "safety areas" of the tip of the pedicle screw trajectory in the axial vertebra. By analyzing the tip of the pedicle screw trajectory on the anteroposterior and lateral radiographs, the operator can determine the reasonable trajectory of axial pedicle screw placement, prevent the injury of the cervical spinal cord and vertebral artery, and reduce the risk of operation.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) on the clinical characteristics of patients with laryngopharyngeal reflux disease(LPRD). Methods: The data of 141 patients with symptoms of LPRD, who were admitted to the Department of Pharyngology, Laryngology& Phonosurgery at the Sixth Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital from November 2020 to October 2021, were retrospectively analyzed.There were 118 males and 23 females, aged 28-75 (56.72±10.04) years old. The included patients underwent simultaneous 24-hour hypopharyngeal and esophageal multichannel intraluminal impedance pH monitoring (24h-HEMII-pH), salivary pepsin test at multiple times, Reflux Symptom Index (RSI), and Reflux Finding Score (RFS). One laryngopharyngeal reflux event on 24 h-HEMII-pH monitoring results was used as a diagnostic criterion for LPRD. And the duration of lower esophageal pH<4.0>4.0% at 24 h or DeMeester score>14.7 were used as diagnostic criteria for GERD. Among them, patients with both positive LPRD and GERD were classified as L&G group, patients with positive LPRD and negative GERD were classified as IL group, patients with negative LPRD and positive GERD were classified as IG group, and patients with both negative LPRD and GERD were classified as N group. The differences in the clinical characteristics of reflux and salivary pepsin assay in each group were statistically analyzed. SPSS 23.0 software was applied for statistical analysis. Results: According to the 24 h-HEMII-pH results, 116 (82.3%) patients were diagnosed with LPRD and 45 (31.9%) with GERD, including 82 (58.2%) in the IL group, 34 (24.1%) in the L&G group, 11 (7.8%) in the IG group, and 14 (9.9%) in the N group. Based on the salivary pepsin test, a total of 106 patients had positive results, and the L&G group had a significantly higher rate of positive total salivary pepsin test (94.1%) and positive morning test (70.6%) than the IL group (75.6%, 26.8%), IG group (63.6%, 27.3%) and N group (35.7%, 28.6%), with chi-square values of 19.01 and 20.81, both with P<0.001. The patients in the L&G group had a significantly higher RSI score (14.0) than the IL group (7.0), IG group (1.0) and N group (0), H=52.26,P<0.001. The difference in RFS between the L&G and IL groups was not statistically significant (Z=-0.92,P>0.05). Conclusion: Combined with GERD, LPRD patients have more obvious clinical symptoms and higher positive rate of pepsin test in saliva.

[PMID: 36267995 PMCID: PMC9577366 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2022.980966] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 01/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective To investigate the status of glycemic control and analyze its influencing factors in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Anhui, China. Methods 1,715 T2D patients aged 18-75 years old were selected from 4 counties or districts in Anhui Province in 2018, using a convenience sampling method. All patients have undergone a questionnaire survey, physical examination, and a glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) test. According to the 2022 American Diabetes Association criteria, HbA1c was used to evaluate the glycemic control status of patients, and HbA1c < 7.0% was defined as good glycemic control. The influencing factors of glycemic control were analyzed by multivariate unconditional logistic regression. Results The prevalence of good glycemic control among people with T2D in the Anhui Province was low (22.97%). On univariate analysis, gender, education level, occupation, region, smoking, drinking, waist circumference and disease duration (all P < 0.05) were significantly associated with glycemic control. The factors associated with pool glycemic control were female gender [OR = 0.67, 95%CI (0.52, 0.86), P = 0.001], higher level of education [OR = 0.47, 95%CI (0.27, 0.83), P = 0.001], living in rural areas [OR = 1.77, 95%CI (1.39, 2.26), P < 0.001], central obesity [OR = 1.58, 95%CI (1.19, 2.09), P = 0.001] and longer duration of disease [OR = 2.66, 95%CI (1.91, 3.69), P < 0.001]. Conclusions The prevalence of good glycemic control in people with T2D in Anhui Province was relatively low, and gender, region, education level, central obesity and course of the disease were influencing factors. The publicity and education on the importance of glycemic control should be further strengthened in T2D patients, and targeted intervention measures should be carried out for risk groups.

Seed germination traits and dormancy classification of 27 species from a degraded karst mountain in central Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau: seed mass and moisture content correlate with germination capacity. PLANT BIOLOGY (STUTTGART, GERMANY) 2022; 24:1043-1056. [PMID: 35793164 DOI: 10.1111/plb.13451] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2022] [Accepted: 05/25/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
In degraded karst ecosystem, vegetation restoration efforts almost exclusively rely on planted seedlings, but this is not effective to maintain community diversity and resilience. As seed functional traits, seed dormancy and germination are key to community assembly. Unfortunately, these elements are commonly overlooked in restoring degraded ecosystems. This work classifies seed dormancy of 27 species with different life forms that are common on a degraded karst mountain. We examined the effects of temperature regime and light conditions on percentage germination and assessed the relationships between seed traits and germination index using a partial least squares regression (PLSR). Approximately 48% of the investigated species had physiological dormancy, 37% were non-dormant, 7% had morphophysiological dormancy, 4% had morphological dormancy and 4% had physical dormancy. We found that 94% (15 out of 16) species had maximum germination in warm temperature regimes (20/13 and 25/18 °C), while the remaining species required cool temperatures (10/4 °C). PLSR analysis indicated a significant positive correlation between seed mass and T50m (time to 50% final germination), and a negative correlation between seed moisture content and percentage germination. Our findings indicate that seed traits are important factors in seed-based restoration practice. F. esculentum, O. opipara, P. fortuneana and S. salicifolia are recommended for direct seeding during the early rainy season to restore seriously degraded lands in subtropical karst regions.

Deep Underground Laboratory Measurement of ^{13}C(α,n)^{16}O in the Gamow Windows of the s and i Processes. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2022; 129:132701. [PMID: 36206440 DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.129.132701] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2021] [Revised: 04/01/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
The ^{13}C(α,n)^{16}O reaction is the main neutron source for the slow-neutron-capture process in asymptotic giant branch stars and for the intermediate process. Direct measurements at astrophysical energies in above-ground laboratories are hindered by the extremely small cross sections and vast cosmic-ray-induced background. We performed the first consistent direct measurement in the range of E_{c.m.}=0.24 to 1.9 MeV using the accelerators at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory and Sichuan University. Our measurement covers almost the entire intermediate process Gamow window in which the large uncertainty of the previous experiments has been reduced from 60% down to 15%, eliminates the large systematic uncertainty in the extrapolation arising from the inconsistency of existing datasets, and provides a more reliable reaction rate for the studies of the slow-neutron-capture and intermediate processes along with the first direct determination of the alpha strength for the near-threshold state.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of Cathepsin K(CatK) on spatial learning and memory in rat hippocampus and its mechanisms. METHODS Twenty male SD rats were randomly divided into Control group and CatK inhibitor group(CatKⅡ group), which were microinjected with Cathepsin K specific inhibitor(0.5 μg/μl) and artificial cerebrospinal fluid in hippocampal DG area respectively with 5 days. The cultured hippocampal neuron cells were divided into control group (CON group), negative control group(NC group), siRNA interference group(siCatK group). Three re-wells were set for each group, and samples were collected 18~20 h after siRNA transfection. Morris water maze was used to evaluate spatial learning and memory function of rats. Meanwhile, dynamic changes of glutamate(Glu) content in extracellular fluid of DG region during learning and memory were observed by microdialysis and high performance liquid chromatography in conscious rats. Western blot was used to detect CatK-mediated Notch1 activation and other signal molecules. RESULTS Animal experiments showed that compared with the control group, the spatial learning and memory ability were decreased significantly in CatKII group, and the hippocampus protein expressions of c-Notch1, p-Akt, p-CREB and BDNF were also decreased significantly(P<0.05); the levels of Glu in DG area of control group and CatK II group were increased significantly with Morris water maze training days, but the increase of CatK II group was significantly weaker than that of control group(P< 0.05). The results of cell experiment showed that the expressions of CatK, c-Notch1, p-CREB and BDNF in siCatK group were significantly lower than other groups (P<0.05). CONCLUSION CatK can affect the spatial learning and memory function of rats by activating Notch1 and its memory related signal protein in hippocampus.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze clinicopathological characteristics of patients with uterine papillary serous carcinoma (UPSC) in China, and investigate roles of TXNDC17 protein in UPSC clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis. Methods: Fifty-five patients with UPSC treated in Women's Hospital School of Medicine Zhejiang University from 2003 to 2016 were analysed retrospectively. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) were performed to TXNDC17 and BECN1 (Beclin 1 protein, a key regulator of autophagy) protein expression respectively. Kaplan-Meier was used to calculate the cumulative survival rate, Log-rank test was performed to compare the difference in cumulative survival rate among patients with different clinicopathological characteristics, and Cox regression model was used to analyze the related between TXNDC17 expression and prognosis of UPSC patients. Results: The median age of the 55 UPSC patients was 63(49, 79) years, 43.6%(24/55) with late stages (stage Ⅲ/Ⅳ), and 32.7 % (18/55) exhibiting more than half of myometrium invasion were enrolled. Notably, 28 (50.9%) patients had TXNDC17 protein overexpression, and associated with BECN1 overexpression(P=0.023). Besides, co-expression of TXNDC17 and BECN1 occurred at an advanced stage and deep myometrial invasion (P=0.013,0.009). The cumulative survival rate of TXNDC17 overexpression(37.4% vs 91.5%),FIGO Ⅲ/Ⅳ stage(44.1% vs 70.1%), deep myometrium invasion(36.1% vs 75.4%) and BECN1 overexpression(0 vs 83.0%)patients was low (P<0.05). The multivariate proportional hazards model revealed that myometrial invasion and TXNDC17 overexpression were associated with prognosis of UPSC patients. Conclusions: This study shows that TXNDC17 overexpression is associate with poor survival in UPSC patients. Co-expression of TXNDC17 and BECN1 shows characteristics of advanced stages and deep myometrial invasion. TXNDC17 may be a potential predictor or target in UPSC therapeutics..

Abstract
Objective To investigate the detection rate and influencing factors of high-risk population of cardiovascular disease in Anhui province. Methods From March 2017 to August 2019, the residents aged 35-75 years old were selected using the multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method in 8 counties and districts of Anhui Province, and questionnaire survey, anthropometric measurement, and collection of biological samples were carried out among them. Results A total of 99,821 residents in Anhui Province were finally investigated, and among them 21,426 residents were detected to be high-risk groups of cardiovascular disease. The detection rate of high-risk groups was 21.46%. According to the high-risk types, the high-risk groups can be clustered. 74.57% of them had only one high-risk type, 22.57% of them had two high-risk types, and 2.86% had three or more high-risk types. The results of Generalized Linear Mixed Model (GLMM) showed that male, age ≥45 years old, not married, occupation as a farmer, annual family income <25,000 yuan, drinking, overweight and obesity, pre-central obesity and central obesity, snoring, feeling fatigued, sleepiness, and self-reported history of diabetes were more likely to be risk factors of cardiovascular disease (all P value < 0.05). Conclusion The detection rate of high-risk groups of cardiovascular disease in Anhui Province is relatively high. Individualized intervention measures as well as comprehensive prevention and control strategies should be adopted focusing on the distribution characteristics of risk factors of high-risk groups.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effects of deferoxamine on macrophage polarization and wound healing in mice with deep tissue injury (DTI) and its mechanism. Methods: The experimental research methods were adopted. Fifty-four male C57BL/6J mice of 6-8 weeks old were divided into DTI control group, 2 mg/mL deferoxamine group, and 20 mg/mL deferoxamine group according to random number table, with 18 mice in each group. DTI was established on the back of mice by magnet compression method. From post injury day (PID) 1, mice were injected subcutaneously with 100 µL normal saline or the corresponding mass concentration of deferoxamine solution every other day at the wound edge until the samples were collected. Another 6 mice without any treatment were selected as normal control group. Six mice in each of the three DTI groups were collected on PID 3, 7, and 14 to observe the wound changes and calculate the wound healing rate. Normal skin tissue of mice in normal control group was collected on PID 3 in other groups (the same below) and wound tissue of mice in the other three groups on PID 7 and 14 was collected for hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining to observe the tissue morphology. Normal skin tissue of mice in normal control group and wound tissue of mice in the other three groups on PID 7 were collected, and the percentages of CD206 and CD11c positive area were observed and measured by immunohistochemical staining, and the mRNA and protein expressions of CD206, CD11c, and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting, respectively. Normal skin tissue of mice in normal control group and wound tissue of mice in DTI control group and 20 mg/mL deferoxamine group were collected on PID 3, 7, and 14, and the protein expressions of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) were detected by Western blotting. The sample number in each group at each time point in the above experiments. The RAW264.7 cells were divided into 50 μmol/L deferoxamine group, 100 μmol/L deferoxamine group, 200 μmol/L deferoxamine group, and blank control group, which were treated correspondingly, with 3 wells in each group. The positive cell percentages of CD206 and CD86 after 48 h of culture were detected by flow cytometry. Data were statistically analyzed with analysis of variance for repeated measurement, one-way analysis of variance, and least significant difference test. Results: On PID 7, the wound healing rates of mice in 2 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL deferoamine groups were (17.7±3.7)% and (21.5±5.0)%, respectively, which were significantly higher than (5.1±2.3)% in DTI control group (P<0.01). On PID 14, the wound healing rates of mice in 2 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL deferoamine groups were (51.1±3.8)% and (57.4±4.4)%, respectively, which were significantly higher than (25.2±3.8)% in DTI control group (P<0.01). HE staining showed that the normal skin tissue layer of mice in normal control group was clear, the epidermis thickness was uniform, and skin appendages such as hair follicles and sweat glands were visible in the dermis. On PID 7, inflammation in wound tissue was obvious, the epidermis was incomplete, and blood vessels and skin appendages were rare in mice in DTI control group; inflammatory cells in wound tissue were reduced in mice in 2 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL deferoxamine groups, and a few of blood vessels and skin appendages could be seen. On PID 14, inflammation was significantly alleviated and blood vessels and skin appendages were increased in wound tissue of mice in 2 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL deferoxamine groups compared with those in DTI control group. On PID 7, the percentages of CD206 positive area in wound tissue of mice in 2 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL deferoxamine groups were significantly higher than that in DTI control group (P<0.01), the percentage of CD206 positive area in wound tissue of mice in DTI control group was significantly lower than that in normal skin tissue of mice in normal control group (P<0.01), the percentage of CD206 positive area in wound tissue of mice in 20 mg/mL deferoxamine group was significantly higher than that in normal skin tissue of mice in normal control group (P<0.01). The percentages of CD11c positive area in wound tissue of mice in 2 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL deferoxamine groups were significantly lower than those in DTI control group and normal skin tissue in normal control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the percentage of CD11c positive area in normal skin tissue of mice in normal control group was significantly higher than that in DTI control group (P<0.05). On PID 7, the CD206 mRNA expressions in the wound tissue of mice in 2 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL deferoxamine groups were significantly higher than that in DTI control group (P<0.01), but significantly lower than that in normal skin tissue in normal control group (P<0.01); the CD206 mRNA expression in wound tissue of mice in DTI control group was significantly lower than that in normal skin tissue in normal control group (P<0.01). The mRNA expressions of CD11c and iNOS in wound tissue of mice in 2 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL deferoamine groups were significantly lower than those in DTI control group (P<0.01). The mRNA expressions of CD11c in the wound tissue of mice in DTI control group, 2 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL deferoamine groups were significantly higher than that in normal skin tissue in normal control group (P<0.01). Compared with that in normal skin tissue in normal control group, the mRNA expressions of iNOS in wound tissue of mice in 2 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL deferoamine groups were significantly decreased (P<0.01), and the mRNA expression of iNOS in wound tissue of mice in DTI control group was significantly increased (P<0.01). On PID 7, the protein expressions of CD206 in the wound tissue of mice in 2 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL deferoamine groups were significantly higher than those in DTI control group and normal skin tissue in normal control group (P<0.01), and the protein expression of CD206 in wound tissue of mice in DTI control group was significantly lower than that in normal skin tissue in normal control group (P<0.01). The protein expressions of CD11c and iNOS in wound tissue of mice in 2 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL deferoamine groups were significantly lower than those in DTI control group (P<0.01). The protein expressions of CD11c and iNOS in wound tissue of mice in DTI control group were significantly higher than those in normal skin tissue in normal control group (P<0.01). The CD11c protein expressions in wound tissue of mice in 2 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL deferoamine groups were significantly higher than those in normal skin tissue in normal control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The protein expression of iNOS in wound tissue of mice in 2 mg/mL deferoamine group was significantly lower than that in 20 mg/mL deferoamine group and normal skin tissue in normal control group (P<0.05). On PID 3, 7, and 14, the protein expressions of STAT3 and IL-10 in wound tissue of mice in 20 mg/mL deferoxamine group were significantly higher than those in DTI control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the protein expressions of STAT3 were significantly higher than those in normal skin tissue in normal control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). On PID 7 and 14, the protein expressions of IL-10 in wound tissue of mice in 20 mg/mL deferoxamine group were significantly higher than those in normal skin tissue in normal control group (P<0.01). On PID 3, 7, and 14, the protein expressions of IL-10 in wound tissue of mice in DTI control group were significantly lower than those in normal skin tissue in normal control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). After 48 h of culture, compared with those in blank control group, the CD206 positive cell percentages in 100 μmol/L and 200 μmol/L deferoamine groups were significantly increased (P<0.01), while the CD86 positive cell percentages in 100 μmol/L and 200 μmol/L deferoamine groups were significantly decreased (P<0.01). Conclusions: Deferoxamine can promote the polarization of macrophages toward the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype and improve wound healing by enhancing the STAT3/IL-10 signaling pathway in DTI mice.

Abstract
With the application of high-resolution chest imaging system and lung cancer screening program, patients with multiple primary lung cancer (MPLC) are becoming a growing population in clinical practice. However, the diagnostic criteria of MPLC and its differentiation from intrapulmonary metastasis of lung cancer (IM) are still controversial, especially in cases with similar histology. On the basis of reviewing the existing literature, this paper discusses the changes of the diagnostic criteria of MPLC and the differential diagnosis methods of imaging, histology and molecular genetics of MPLC and IM, and briefly introduces the application of multidisciplinary diagnosis, algorithm, predictive model and artificial intelligence in the differential diagnosis of MPLC. In addition, we also discuss the latest progress in the treatment of MPLC. Radical surgery is the main method for the treatment of MPLC. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is safe and feasible for inoperable MPLC patients, and targeted therapy and immunotherapy can also be used in MPLC after appropriate patient selection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. glycines (Xag) is the causal agent of bacterial pustule disease and results in enormous losses in soybean production. Although isoflavones are known to be involved in soybean resistance against pathogen infection, the effects of exogenous isoflavones on soybean plants remain unexplored. RESULTS Irrigation of soybean plants with isoflavone genistein inhibited plant growth for short periods, probably by inhibiting the tyrosine (brassinosteroids) kinase pathway, and increased disease resistance against Xag. The number of lesions was reduced by 59%-63% when applying 50 μg ml-1 genistein. The effects on disease resistance were observed for 15 days after treatment. Genistein also enhanced the disease resistance of soybean against the fungal pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. Exogenous genistein increased antioxidant capacity, decreased H2 O2 level and promoted the accumulation of phenolics in Xag-infected soybean leaves. Exogenous genistein reduced the amounts of endogenous daidzein, genistein and glycitein and increased the concentration of genistin, which was found to show strong antibacterial activity against the pathogen and to reduce the expression of virulence factor yapH, and flagella formation gene flgK. The expression of several soybean defense genes, such as chalcone isomerase, glutathione S-transferase and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate oxidase 1, was upregulated after genistein treatment. CONCLUSIONS The effects of exogenous genistein on soybean plants were examined for the first time, revealing new insights into the roles of isoflavones in soybean defense and demonstrating that irrigation with genistein can be a suitable method to induce disease resistance in soybean plants. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Two new bis-bidentate imidazole-substituted nitronyl nitroxide biradicals, BNITIm-C2 (BNITIm-C2 = 1,1'-(1,2-ethanediyl)bis(1H-imidazole-2-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-1-oxy-3-oxide)) and BNITIm-C4 (BNITIm-C4 = 1,1'-(1,4-butanediyl)bis(1H-imidazole-2-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-1-oxy-3-oxide)), and two series of lanthanide complexes, namely [(BNITIm-C2)Ln(NO3)3](MeOH) (Ln = Gd (1Gd) and Tb (2Tb)), (BNITIm-C2)Dy(NO3)3 (3Dy) and (BNITIm-C4)[Ln(hfac)3]2(C7H8)2 (Ln = Gd (4Gd), Tb (5Tb) and Dy (6Dy), hfac = hexafluoroacetylacetonate), have been prepared and characterized structurally and magnetically. Single crystal X-ray crystallographic analyses revealed that complexes 1Gd-3Dy exhibit 1D chain structures where the Ln(NO3)3 units are bridged by the BNITIm-C2 bis-bidentate biradical, while complexes 4Gd-6Dy exhibit binuclear structures with two Ln(hfac)3 units bridged by the BNITIm-C4 biradical. The bulky hfac anions prohibit the further coordination of LnIII to another NIT ligand and the formation of a similar 1D chain structure. Due to the very long intra- and intermolecular distances of the spin centers, complexes 1Gd-3Dy can be magnetically regarded as an isolated 2p-4f-2p tri-spin system while complex 4Gd-6Dy can be regarded as an isolated 2p-4f bi-spin system. Magnetic analyses on the two GdIII compounds revealed the ferromagnetic GdIII-NIT interactions and antiferromagnetic NIT-NIT interactions through the GdIII ion in 1Gd. Alternating-current (ac) magnetic susceptibility investigations revealed that complex 5Tb exhibits the typical SMM behavior under a zero dc field while complex 6Dy was proved to be a field-induced SMM. Ab initio calculations were performed on complexes 2Tb and 5Tb to understand their magnetic anisotropy together with their different magnetic dynamics.
