Abstract
Inflammation is a critical player in the development and progression of colon cancer. Basic leucine zipper transcription factor ATF-like 3 (BATF3) plays an important role in infection and tumor immunity through regulating the development of conventional type 1 dendritic cells (cDC1s). However, the function of BATF3 in colitis and colitis-associated colon cancer (CAC) remains unclear. Here, BATF3 wild-type and knockout mice were used to construct an AOM/DSS-induced CAC model. In addition, DSS-induced chronic colitis, bone marrow cross-transfusion (BMT), neutrophil knockout, and other animal models were used for in-depth research. We found that BATF3 deficiency in intestinal epithelial cells rather than in cDC1s inhibited CAC, which was depended on inflammatory stimulation. Mechanistically, BATF3 directly promoted transcription of CXCL5 by forming a heterodimer with JunD, and accelerated the recruitment of neutrophils through the CXCL5-CXCR2 axis, ultimately increasing the occurrence and development of CAC. Tissue microarray and TCGA data also indicated that high expression of BATF3 was positively correlated with poor prognosis of colorectal cancer and other inflammation-related tumors. In summary, our results demonstrate that intestinal epithelial-derived BATF3 relies on inflammatory stimulation to promote CAC, and BATF3 is expected to be a novel diagnostic indicator for colitis and CAC.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of acellular dermis matrix combined with cervical strap muscle (ADM-CSM) as a composite tissue flap for repairing the laryngeal defect after partial laryngectomy. Methods: The medical records of 33 patients with laryngeal cancer who were diagnosed and treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2014 to December 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. The patients consisted of 32 males and 1 female with age range from 39 to 76 years. Laryngeal defects were repaired with ADM-CSM in 14 patients (2 for supraglottic laryngeal cancer, 12 for glottic laryngeal cancer) and with CSM fascial flaps in 19 patients (3 for supraglottic laryngeal cancer, 16 for glottic laryngeal cancer). Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the 3-year overall survival and local control rate. The functions of voice and swallowing after operation were evaluated by voice handicap index-30 (VHI-30) and MD Anderson dysphagia inventory. Univariate logistic regression analysis, t-test, and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare the variables between the two groups. Results: The incidence of laryngeal stenosis was 2/14 in ADM-CSM group and 4/19 in CSM group. In the ADM-CSM group, 3-year overall survival and local control rates were 92.9% and 85.7%, respectively. In the CSM group, 3-year overall survival and local control rates were 78.9% and 84.2%, respectively. The time of operation(3 h vs. 4 h, Z=193.5, P<0.05), time of retaining the feeding tube(14 d vs. 17 d, Z=206.0, P<0.05), and length of stay(18.5 d vs. 22.1 d, t=-2.62, P<0.05) in the ADM-CSM group were significantly less than those in the CSM group. The quality of voice in the CSM group was better than that in the ADM-CSM group (66.85±27.65 vs.45.80±23.19, t=2.19, P<0.05), while swallowing function in the ADM-CSM group was better than that in the ACSM group (80.00[60.00, 80.00]vs.60.00[40.00, 80.00], Z=48.0, P<0.05). Conclusion: ADM-CSM is user-friendly control and safe composite tissue flap for repairing the laryngeal defect after partial laryngectomy, with less scar hyperplasia and higher satisfaction of swallowing function after operation.

Abstract
Ginkgo biloba is a traditional Chinese herbal medicine containing multiple components that contribute to its notable bioactivities. Variations of seasonal, meteorological and planting soil on the phytochemicals contents in G. biloba leaves due to the effects of growth meteorological and soil parameters were investigated in this study. The leaves of G. biloba were collected from different months and place in Zhejiang province, the contents of flavones (quercetin, kaempferol and isorhamnetin) and terpene lactones (bilobalide, ginkgolides A, B and C) were quantified by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and the evaporative light scattering detector (ELSD) method. The established methods were validated with good linearity, precision, repeatability, stability, and recovery. Comprehensive analysis suggested the proper harvest time for G. biloba was in October of Zhejiang province. The result of correlation analysis with meteorological factors shows that the temperature and precipitation have non-significant effect on the main components of G. biloba. In addition, the type and content (Mn and Zn) of the soil showed significantly effect on the content of flavonoids and terpene lactones. This study enriched the knowledge on the development and utilization value of the G. biloba leaves and was useful for determining the optimal harvest time and growing condition.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical, pathological and genetic characteristics of neonatal alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of the pulmonary veins (ACDMPV). Methods: The clinical manifestations, radiographic examinations, pathology and parental genetic analysis of a newborn with FOXF1 variation induced ACDMPV, who was hospitalized in the Department of Neonatology of Shenzhen Children's Hospital in January 2020, were extracted and analyzed. Related literature up to March 2020 with the key words of "Alveolar capillaries dysplasia" "Alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of the pulmonary veins" "FOXF1" in PubMed, CNKI, Wanfang, CQVIP database and Leiden Open Variation database (LOVD) were searched. Results: A full-term male newborn (1 hour of age) was admitted due to anal atresia. Surgical repair of anal atresia and omphalocele was performed on the first day of life, and gallbladder absence and Meckel's diverticulum were identified during the operation. Respiratory distress with hypoxemia developed at about 6 hours of life, and persistent pulmonary hypertension developed and progressed after surgery, with poor response to mechanical ventilation and pulmonary vasodilators. This infant passed away at 26 days of life. Lung biopsy showed decreased alveolar units and thickened interalveolar septa, reduced alveolar capillary density and thickened walls of peripheral pulmonary arteries, and misaligned pulmonary veins adjacent to the pulmonary arterioles, which were consistent with ACDMPV. The whole exome sequencing revealed a heterozygous novel frameshift of FOXF1 gene located in chromosome 16q24.1 c376_377insT; p.(Pro126fs). According to the bioinformatics analysis, this variation was likely to be pathogenic as it was associated with coding disorder of FOXF1 Pro126, resulting in truncation of the encoded protein. This novel variation had not been reported in the human gene mutation database (HGMD), ESP6500siv2_ALL, 1000g2015aug_ALL or dbSNP147 database. Previous 6 literatures reported 54 variants, including 28 missense, 10 nonsense, 11 frameshift, 2 deletion, 1 synonymous, and 2 extensions. Only three of the reported 45 cases (24 males, 21 females) were still alive as of the time of this study. Conclusions: Typically, ACDMPV is a catastrophic disease in neonatal period with high mortality. Lung biopsy and genetic testing should be considered in infants who present with persistent pulmonary hypertension and refractory hypoxemia, especially when combined with extrapulmonary abnormalities.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
In a Phase 2 trial, tirzepatide (TZP) dose-dependently reduced HbA1c, body weight and serum triglycerides in moderately obese type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients.
Purpose
To understand changes in fasting serum lipids with TZP, lipidomics profiling of multiple lipid classes was conducted.
Methods
Patients (n=314) were randomized to receive weekly subcutaneous TZP, dulaglutide, or placebo for 26 weeks. Shotgun lipidomic analysis was performed in positive electrospray using a Sciex Triple TOF 5600 mass spectrometer operating in MS/MSALL mode and sphingomyelin (SPM) data were acquired in positive electrospray TOF mode. Data were assessed using MMRM.
Results
At 26 weeks, total cholesterol esters (CE), phosphatidylcholines (PC) and phosphatidylinositols (PI) increased with placebo; dulaglutide treatment did not affect any lipid class (Table). With TZP 10 and 15 mg, total triacylglycerides (TAG), diacylglycerides (DAG), phosphatidylethanolamines (PE), PC and PI dose-dependently decreased at 4, 12 and 26 weeks, whereas total CE and phosphatidylserines (PS) levels did not change at any timepoint. At 26 weeks, individual, but not total, SPM and ceramide (Cer) changes were observed with TZP 15 mg. Most saturated, long chain SPM (14:0, 20:0, 21:0, 22:0, 23:0, 24:0) and Cer (22:0, 23:0, 24:0) were reduced by 8–16% and 14–20%, respectively. Conversely, unsaturated SPM (24:1,24:2) increased by 6.5% and 11.4%, and unsaturated glycosylated Cer 16:0 lactosyl and 24:1 hexosyl increased by 22.4% and 19.3%, respectively. TZP 10 and 15 mg decreased total SPM by 4–6% at 4 weeks, and total Cer between 8% and 13% at 4 and 12 weeks.
Conclusions
Tirzepatide dose-dependently reduced levels of total TAG, DAG, PE, PC, and PI at all timepoints, whereas levels of saturated long chain SPM and Cer were reduced and those of some unsaturated SPM and glycosylated Cer increased at 26 weeks. Net improvements in lipidomics profiling with tirzepatide warrant further evaluation of potential benefits on cardiovascular events and NASH.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction and purpose
Patient risk in non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) depends on clinical setting, individual patient variables and procedural characteristics. Standardized risk-adjusted periprocedural management for catheterization procedures using a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) was investigated to evaluate associations with in-hospital clinical outcomes.
Methods
In 01/2018, our heart center established an SOP for coronary catheterization procedures in NSTEMI, targeting 1) standardized pre-procedural risk assessment using National Cardiovascular Data Registry (NCDR) risk models, and 2) standardized post-procedural risk-adjusted safety measures, including advanced patient monitoring (intermediate/intensive care) and use of vascular closure devices. All patients presenting with invasively-managed NSTEMI in 2018 were retrospectively evaluated for SOP-based pre-procedural risk scoring, SOP-based post-procedural management and in-hospital clinical outcomes of mortality, major bleeding (MB, according to BARC ≥3) and acute kidney injury (AKI, according to KDIGO).
Results
A total of 430 patients (age 72±12 years, 71% male, BMI 27±5) presenting with NSTEMI from 01 to 12/2018 were included, 9.8% presented in cardiogenic shock and 4.7% had suffered a preclinical cardiac arrest. Overall in-hospital mortality was 3.7%, MB occurred in 6.5%. 207 patients (48.1%, SOP+ group) had received both 1) pre-procedural risk assessment and 2) post-procedural risk-adjusted safety measures; the other 223 patients (51.9%, SOP- group) had not received either 1) or 2). There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics and prior-existing medical conditions between groups, however, significantly more patients in SOP- group were treated in emergency settings (39.9% vs. 21.7%, p=0.004). However, significantly more patients in SOP- were treated in emergency settings at higher risk (39.9% (SOP-) vs. 21.7% (SOP+); p<0.001). In univariate analysis, all in-hospital clinical outcomes of mortality (1.4% (SOP+) vs. 5.8% (SOP-); p=0.016), MB (2.9% (SOP+) vs. 9.9% (SOP-); p=0.003) and AKI were significantly lower in the SOP+ group (15.9% (SOP+) vs. 24.2% (SOP-); p=0.033). After correction for the difference in risk between groups due to emergency settings by multivariate logistic regression analysis, MB remained significantly lower in SOP+ (p=0.02), while mortality (p=0.14) and AKI (p=0.19) were not significantly associated with SOP-status anymore.
Conclusion
Standardized risk management in invasively managed NSTEMI was associated with significantly lower rates of in-hospital major bleedings.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Iron is essential to the mitochondrial energy production in cardiomyocytes and its depletion is negatively associated with symptoms, functional capacity, quality of life and outcomes in patients with heart failure – independent of anemia. The relevance of iron deficiency in adults with congenital heart disease however has not been evaluated to date, and we thus aimed to evaluate it in an all-comer cohort of patients with congenital heart disease in correlation with symptoms and functional capacity.
Methods and results
527 patient cases from one referral center over 2 years were evaluated concerning their iron status, anemia, functional capacity and ejection fraction of their systemic ventricle. 264 were female, 94 had a shunt lesion, 96 had left-sided obstructive lesions, 181 right-sided lesions, while 108 were considered to have complex lesions and 28 were cyanotic. The median age was 34 years, the mean BMI was 25.2±5 kg/m2, 429 patients had a normal ejection fraction and 34 moderately and severely depressed. 35 patients were classified as NYHA III, and 56 as NYHA II, while their functional capacity was evaluated via cardiopulmonary testing with a mean VO2max/kg of 22.6±6.5 and mean 69±17% of the expected. The mean serum iron concentration was 99.4±42.3 mcg/dL, their mean transferrin saturation was 27.36±13%, the mean ferritin concentration was 130.8±185 ng/mL, the mean soluble transfer factor was 1.3±0.66 mg/l and their mean Hemoglobin 14.8±2 mg/dL, while the mean MCV was 88±5.3 and the mean MCHC 33.7±1.4.
40 patients were anemic according to the WHO definition for anemia, in 28 of those patients that was already known. Iron deficiency according to stratified according to ferritin was present in 53 patients. However, when stratified according to the heart failure guidelines definition for iron deficiency 299 patients were found affected. Using the soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) and sTfR-ferritin index iron deficiency was suspected in 10 additional individuals. Iron deficiency was associated with the ejection fraction (p=0.0001) - patients with moderately or severely depressed systemic ventricular function more often were diagnosed with iron deficiency (p=0.007)-, while it did not correlate with functional NYHA classification (p=0.622) or functional capacity (p=0.1 and 0.057). Iron deficiency was also not found significantly different amongst congenital defects but did correlate with all laboratory iron studies.
Conclusions
In this ambulatory population of adults with congenital heart disease we found an association of ejection fraction with iron deficiency, however no association of iron deficiency with functional capacity. The question arising is if a new definition of iron deficiency anemia in congenital heart disease similar to heart failure would be of clinical value.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Uninterrupted anticoagulation during catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (CAAF) became standard of care after positive results of trials investigating vitamin K antagonists (VKA). Previous studies and meta-analyses of uninterrupted direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) vs. VKA have given controversial results. We thus aimed to elucidate the risks and benefits of uninterrupted DOAC vs. VKA during CAAF in an updated meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs).
Methods
Online databases were searched for RCTs comparing uninterrupted DOAC to VKA in patients undergoing CAAF until September 2019. Data from retrieved studies were analysed in a comprehensive meta-analysis. Primary safety outcome was major bleeding; primary efficacy outcome was stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). Secondary outcomes included a composite of major bleeding and stroke or TIA, minor bleeding, acute cerebral lesions on magnetic resonance imaging (ACL) and mortality.
Results
Six eligible RCTs comprising 2,369 patients were included. Pooled meta-analysis showed no significant differences in DOAC vs. VKA concerning the rates of major bleeding (2.2% vs. 3.8%; odds ratio (OR) 0.69, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.30–1.56; p=0.37) and stroke or TIA (0.2% vs. 0.2%; OR 0.97, CI 0.20–4.72; p=0.97). There were no significant differences found in secondary outcomes (OR 0.73, p=0.49 for composite of major bleeding and stroke or TIA; OR 1.08, p=0.52 for minor bleeding; OR 1.12, p=0.59 for ACL; and OR=0.60, p=0.64 for all-cause mortality).
Conclusion
Our meta-analysis suggests that uninterrupted periprocedural anticoagulation with DOAC or VKA is characterized by a similar risk/benefit ratio in patients undergoing CAAF with comparable rates of major bleeding and stroke.

Abstract
PURPOSE X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common inherited renal phosphate wasting disorder and is often misdiagnosed as vitamin D deficiency. This study aims to provide clinical and mutational characteristics of 65 XLH pediatric patients in southern China. METHODS In this work, a combination of DNA sequencing and qPCR analysis was used to study the PHEX gene in 80 pediatric patients diagnosed with hypophosphatemia. The clinical and laboratory data of confirmed 65 XLH patients were assessed and analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS In 65 XLH patients from 61 families, 51 different variants in the PHEX gene were identified, including 23 previously reported variants and 28 novel variants. In this cohort of XLH patients, the c.1601C>T(p.Pro534Leu) variant appears more frequently. Fourteen uncommon XLH cases were described, including four boys with de novo mosaic variants, eight patients with large deletions and a pair of monozygotic twins. The clinical manifestations in this cohort are very similar to those previously reported. CONCLUSION This study extends the mutational spectrum of the PHEX gene, which will contribute to accurate diagnosis. This study also suggests a supplementary qPCR or MLPA assay may be performed along with classical sequencing to confirm the gross insertion/deletion.

Abstract
AIM To design and assess a novel protocol that employs isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) for rapid detection of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producers in clinical pathogens. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 69 clinical Enterobacteriaceae isolates were examined in the new ESBL-ITC test by examining the heat profiles associated with enzyme hydrolysis of different substrates (imipenem, cefotaxime and clavulanic acid). The presence of β-lactamase genes in the bacteria tested was confirmed by PCR and DNA sequencing. Comparative analysis between ESBL-ITC and conventional minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC)/combined disk method (CDM) showed high agreement between the two assays. However, the ESBL-ITC test had a remarkable advantage of providing testing result within 1 h, in comparison to the 32-48 h required by MIC/CDM. CONCLUSIONS The ESBL-ITC test developed in this work offers a new option for rapid and accurate detection of ESBL-producers. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY Timely detection of ESBL-producers is vital to guide the decision-making process in clinical treatment as well as in hospital-infection control. The new ESBL-ITC test provides a rapid phenotypic assay that can be further adapted for clinical diagnosis of ESBL-producing pathogens.

Abstract
Objective: China adopted an unprecedented province-scale quarantine since January 23rd 2020, after the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) broke out in Wuhan in December 2019. Responding to the challenge of limited testing capacity, large-scale (>20 000 tests per day) standardized and fully-automated laboratory (Huo-Yan) was built as an ad-hoc measure. There is so far no empirical data or mathematical model to reveal the impact of the testing capacity improvement since quarantine. Methods: Based on the suspected case data released by the Health Commission of Hubei Province and the daily testing data of Huo-Yan Laboratory, the impact of detection capabilities on the realization of "clearing" and "clearing the day" of supected cases was simulated by establishing a novel non-linear and competitive compartments differential model. Results: Without the establishment of Huo-Yan, the suspected cases would increase by 47% to 33 700, the corresponding cost of quarantine would be doubled, the turning point of the increment of suspected cases and the achievement of "daily settlement" (all newly discovered suspected cases are diagnosed according to the nucleic acid testing result) would be delayed for a whole week and 11 days. If the Huo-Yan Laboratory could ran at its full capacity, the number of suspected cases could start to decrease at least a week earlier, the peak of suspected cases would be reduced by at least 44%, and the quarantine cost could be reduced by more than 72%. Ideally, if a daily testing capacity of 10 500 tests was achieved immediately after the Hubei lockdown, "daily settlement" for all suspected cases could be achieved. Conclusions: Large-scale, standardized clinical testing platform, with nucleic acid testing, high-throughput sequencing, and immunoprotein assessment capabilities, need to be implemented simultaneously in order to maximize the effect of quarantine and minimize the duration and cost of the quarantine. Such infrastructure, for both common times and emergencies, is of great significance for the early prevention and control of infectious diseases.

Abstract
The clinicopathological aspects and prognostic factors of 40 patients with adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) of the intraoral minor salivary glands, treated between 2007 and 2017 at a single institution, were evaluated retrospectively. Twenty-six were female and 14 were male, and they ranged in age from 26 to 81 years (median 55 years). ACC occurred mainly in the palate, with 54.8% of cases presenting T3-T4 lesions. Curative surgery was performed in all patients, and 62.5% of patients were treated with postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy. In the final analysis, positive surgical margins were noted in 57.5% of cases and perineural invasion in 70%. Follow-up was at least 13 months (range 13-141 months, median 59 months). Nineteen patients (47.5%) developed recurrent disease after initial surgery and nine patients had died at the end of follow-up. The 5- and 10-year overall survival rates were 88.3% and 25.6%, respectively. The 5- and 10-year disease-free survival rates were 75.6% and 34.0%, respectively. Patients with a tumour size >4cm and those with positive surgical margins showed a significantly higher risk of local recurrence. Elective neck dissection is suggested for patients with clinically positive lymph nodes or a locally advanced tumour, especially those undergoing microvascular reconstruction. The survival analysis results are similar to those reported previously in the literature.

Abstract
A cancer cell changes its state from being epithelial- to mesenchymal-like in a dynamic manner during tumor progression. For example, it is well known that mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition (MET) is essential for cancer cells to regain the capability of seeding on and then invading secondary/tertiary regions. However, there is no fast yet reliable method for detecting this transition. Here, we showed that membrane undulation of invasive cancer cells could be used as a novel marker for MET detection, both in invasive model cell lines and repopulated circulating tumor cells (rCTCs) from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Specifically, using atomic force microscopy (AFM), it was found that the surface oscillation spectra of different cancer cells, after undergoing MET, all exhibited two distinct peaks from 0.001 to 0.007 Hz that are absent in the spectra before MET. In addition, by adopting the long short-term memory (LSTM) based recurrent neural network learning algorithm, we showed that the positions of recorded membrane undulation peaks can be used to predict the occurrence of MET in invasive NSCLC cells with high accuracy (>90% for model cell lines and >80% for rCTCs when benchmarking against the conventional bio-marker vimentin). These findings demonstrate the potential of our approach in achieving rapid MET detection with a much reduced cell sample size as well as quantifying changes in the mesenchymal level of tumor cells.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the outcomes of immediate rehabilitation of the edentulous and potential edentulous jaws with implant-supported full-arch prostheses and analyse the risk factors of the complications. Methods: This retrospective study included 273 patients treated with immediate rehabilitation of the edentulous and potential edentulous jaws with implant-supported full-arch prostheses from April 2008 to December 2018 in Department of Implantology, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology. The patients' sex, age, place of residence, jaw position, opposing dentition, number of implants, diameter and length of implants, abutment height and abutment angle were recorded. The survival rate of implants and marginal bone loss were calculated and analyzed. Cox proportional hazards ratio model was adopted to analyze the potential risk factors of prosthetic complications. Results: A total of 225 patients (288 jaws) and 1 260 implants were included, with 126 males and 99 females, aged (57.3±11.0) years, with a following time of (5.04±3.08) years. The 1-year cumulative survival rate of implants was 98.0% (1 235/1 260). Forty-eight implants were lost during the follow-up, with 39 implants in the maxillae and 9 implants in the mandible. The risk of implant failure of the maxillae [7.2% (39/541)] is significantly higher than that of the mandible [1.3% (9/719)] (P<0.01). Average marginal bone loss at 1 and 5 years was (0.7±0.2) mm and (1.1±0.3) mm. One hundred and twenty patients experienced prosthetic complications including screw/abutment loosening (44 cases), screw/abutment fracture (2 cases) and artificial tooth/denture base fracture (99 cases). The possibility of immediate prosthesis fracture within 6-8 months was high but declined over the following years with the final prosthesis delivered. Cox regression analysis showed that the use of 17° abutments in the anterior region was significantly related to the prosthetic complications (hazard ratio=1.797, P=0.002). Conclusions: Immediate rehabilitation of the edentulous jaws with implant-supported full-arch prostheses can be a predictable technique. The immediate prosthetic mechanical complication prevalence was high. The use of 17° abutments in the anterior region may increase the risk of screw/abutment loosening. It is necessary to review in time.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of the Jinrong granule on CXCL-1 and the mechanism of the Jinrong granule on the metastasis and apoptosis of breast cancer cell lines. MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cell line was divided into a control group, Jinrong extract group, CXCL-1 group and Jinrong extract + CXCL-1 group. The proliferation, apoptosis and permeability of the cells in the experimental group were studied. The protein expression of CXCL-1 was detected by Western blot. On this basis, a bioinformatics method was used to analyze the mechanism of CXCL-1. The results of the CCK8 experiment showed that compared with the control group, the cell proliferation activity of the CXCL-1 treatment group was enhanced while that of the Jinrong granule group was decreased. Compared with that of the CXCL-1 treatment group, the cell proliferation rate of the CXCL-1 + Jinrong granule group was significantly lower. The results showed that CXCL-1 could inhibit apoptosis of breast cancer cells, while the Jinrong granule could reverse the inhibition of apoptosis induced by CXCL-1. The results showed that the Jinrong granule could inhibit the ability of CXCL-1 to promote the migration and proliferation of breast cancer cells. The Jinrong granule could reverse the promoting effect of CXCL-1 on breast cancer through the CXCL-1- CLCR2/CCL20 pathway. In conclusion, the Jinrong granule can inhibit the invasion of breast cancer cells through the CXCL-1-CLCR2/CCL20 pathway.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To elucidate the influence of microRNA-409 and the Jak-Stat pathway on the development of liver cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS The quantitative Real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) method was used to detect the expression of microRNA-409 in hepatocarcinoma, paracancerous tissues and normal liver tissues, and the correlation between its expression and clinicopathological parameters of patients was analyzed, with the area under the microRNA-409 curve (AUC) being detected. The level of microRNA-409 in different liver cancer cells was detected by qPCR. Then it was overexpressed or knock-downed in the liver cancer cells by cell transfection technique. The cell apoptosis and viability after inhibition or overexpression of microRNA-409 were evaluated by propidium iodide (PI) staining and cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. Subsequently, Jak2 and Stat3 mRNA levels were detected by qPCR in hepatocarcinoma and paracancerous tissues, with their protein levels analyzed by Western blot after microRNA-409 was inhibited or up-regulated. At last, CCK-8 assay was performed to evaluate the effect of Jak2 on cell viability. RESULTS Compared with paracancerous and normal liver tissues, the level of microRNA-409 was remarkably reduced in hepatocarcinoma tissues and was negatively correlated with tumor stage, tumor size and overall survival time of patients with liver cancer. Meanwhile, microRNA-409 expression in hepatoma cell lines was also strikingly lower than that in normal liver cells. After overexpression of microRNA-409 in HHCC, cell viability significantly decreased while apoptosis increased, and opposite results were shown in HepG2 cells after miR409 was knock-downed. In liver cancer tissues, the levels of Jak2 and Stat3 were significantly higher than those in adjacent tissues. Additionally, up-regulating microRNA-409 reduced the level of Jak2 and Stat3 protein, while down-regulating it elevated them. In addition, Jak2 could reverse the inhibitory effect of microRNA-409 on the proliferation of hepatoma cells. CONCLUSIONS Highly-expressed microRNA-409 can down-regulate the Jak-Stat signaling pathway and inhibit cell proliferation to slow down the progression of liver cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE LncRNA MALAT1 has been proved to be involved in the development of various types of human cancers while the involvement of MALAT1 in tongue squamous cell carcinoma has not been reported. In view of this, our study aimed to investigate the functionality of MALAT1 in tongue squamous cell carcinoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS The expression of MALAT1 in tumor tissues and adjacent healthy tissues of tongue cancer patients, and the serum from tongue cancer patients as well as healthy controls, were detected by quantitative Real Time-PCR (qRT-PCR). ROC curve analysis was performed to analyze the diagnostic value of plasma MALAT1 for tongue cancer. Survival curves were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method to evaluate the prognostic value of plasma MALAT1 for tongue cancer. CCK-8 assay, transwell migration and invasion assay were performed to investigate the effects of MALAT1 knockdown on the proliferation, migration and invasion of tongue cancer cells, respectively. The effects of MALAT1 overexpression on the PI3K/Akt pathway and MMP-9 expression were detected by Western blot. RESULTS The expression level of MALAT1 was remarkably higher in tumor tissues than that in adjacent healthy tissues. Serum MALAT1 was significantly higher in tongue cancer patients than in healthy controls. MALAT1 knockdown markedly inhibits the proliferation, migration and invasion of tongue cancer cells. MALAT1 knockdown also reduced the phosphorylation level of Akt as well as the expression level of MMP-9. It showed no significant effects on Akt expression, while PI3K activator treatment reduced the inhibitory effects of MALAT1 knockdown on the proliferation, migration and invasion of tongue cancer cells. CONCLUSIONS LncRNA MALAT1 expression inhibition can inhibit the proliferation, migration and invasion of tongue cancer cells by inactivating the PI3K/Akt pathway and downregulating MMP-9. MALAT1 may serve as a target for the treatment of tongue squamous cell carcinoma.

Abstract
The striped rice stem borer, Chilo suppressalis Walker, is one of the most destructive rice pests in Asia. Insecticidal crystal proteins (Cry toxins) produced by Bacillus thuringiensis are widely used as biopesticides or in developing transgenic crops for pest management. In this study, we tested the involvement of two newly cloned C. suppressalis cadherins (CsCAD3 and CsCAD4) in the toxicity of Cry1Ab/Ac, Cry2Aa and Cry1Ca. Our results showed that CsCAD4 was expressed highest in the midgut, whereas CsCAD3 was expressed highest in the epidermis. The feeding of double-stranded RNA specific to CsCAD3 and CsCAD4 respectively significantly suppressed the expressions of target gene. The knockdown of CsCAD3 significantly reduced the mortality of larvae to Cry1Ab/Ac, whereas knockdown of CsCAD4 significantly decreased the larval susceptibility to Cry2Aa. In contrast, reduced expressions of CsCAD3 or CsCAD4 were not interacted with larval susceptibility to Cry1Ca. Our results suggest that CsCAD3 and CsCAD4 function in Cry toxin toxicity and these findings will help us to better understand the action mechanism of Cry toxins in C. suppressalis.

Objective: To examine the clinical effects of the treatment of knee osteoarthritis patients with kinematic alignment technique of total knee replacement (KA-TKA) assisted by patient-specific instrumentation (PSI). Methods: The clinical data of 14 patients with knee osteoarthritis treated with unilateral KA-TKA assisted by PSI at Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Beijing Chaoyang Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from May 2018 to August 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 6 males and 8 females, aged 66.6 years (range: 56 to 79 years), 9 left knees and 5 right knees. The operation time, soft tissue release and extra varus or valgus osteotomy were recorded. The data of osteotomy blocks were measured and compared with the corresponding position of the prostheses. The hip knee ankle angle (HKA), the mechanical distal femoral lateral angle (mLDFA) and the proximal tibial medial angle (MPTA) were measured before and 3 months after the operation. The knee joint functional score (KS-F) , knee joint clinical score (KS-C) and the Western Ontario McMaster (WOMAC) Osteoarthritis Index were recorded and compared by paired t test or Wilcoxon non-parametric test. Results: The operation time was (81.8±16.9) minutes (range: 60 to 115 minutes), 2 cases were manually increased varus osteotomy by 2 mm and 1 patient received lateral retinaculum release. There was no extra medial or lateral soft tissue release. Intraoperative measurement of the resection showed that the femoral side mismatch was within 2 mm. The medial and lateral condyle, the medial and lateral posterior condyles were relatively overcut by 0.50 mm, 0.21 mm, 0.93 mm, and 0.71 mm, respectively. The tibial side mismatch was within 1.5 mm, the medial and lateral plateau were relatively undercut by 0.43 mm and 0.32 mm. HKA was corrected from (8.8±5.6) ° to (1.6±4.3) ° (t=20.723, P=0.000) .KS-C improved from 28.21±13.47 preoperative to 78.07±8.01 postoperative (t=-16.570, P=0.000); KS-F improved from 41.00±15.25 preoperative to 84.93±10.85 postoperative (t=-14.675, P=0.000).WOMAC Osteoarthritis Index decreased from 53.5 (25.75) (M(Q(R))) preoperative to 5.5 (5.25) postoperative (Z=-3.297, P=0.001) .No statistically significant difference was found in mLDFA and MPTA before and after surgery. No significant patellofemoral complication was recorded during follow-up time. Conclusions: PSI assisted TKA resection has high accuracy. KA-TKA aims to restore the native anatomy of the knee joint, only corrects the malalignment of lower extremities caused by articular cartilage wear, with less interference to soft tissues, easy to obtain satisfactory knee joint laxity and has a promising early clinical effect.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Cooperation, the cornerstone of human interaction, has attracted much attention since it was indispensable in the contemporary world. However, little research has been done on whether sleep deprivation altered human cooperative behavior. In the present work, we investigated cooperation and sleep deprivation directly, aiming to evaluate the influences of acute sleep deprivation on cooperation with two classical social dilemmas, the Prisoner’s dilemma (PD) and the chicken dilemma (CD).
Methods
All participants (N=24) were required to come for the experiments twice, one time for normal sleep condition, the other time for sleep deprivation condition, with a counter-balanced sequence. In the following afternoon, participants completed the psychomotor vigilance task (PVT) and two social dilemmas tasks, as well as the Karolinska Sleepiness Scale (KSS), the Risk Orientation Questionnaire (ROQ) and the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS).
Results
Our results demonstrated that sleep deprivation significantly impaired cooperative behaviors in the CD but not in the PD. In addition, this detrimental effect was not related with the alteration in the risk-seeking, objective alertness, subjective sleepiness, and mood.
Conclusion
The current findings revealed that sleep deprivation impairs human cooperative behaviors selectively. However, the underlying mechanism remains to further explore with neuroimaging studies and focus on the mediating role of general trust and sensitivity of loss.
Support
This research was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (31500906), Guangdong Natural Science Funding - General Program (2019A1515012182).

Abstract
We report on the first measurement of the charmed baryon Λ_{c}^{±} production at midrapidity (|y|<1) in Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV collected by the STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The Λ_{c}/D^{0} [denoting (Λ_{c}^{+}+Λ_{c}^{-})/(D^{0}+D[over ¯]^{0})] yield ratio is measured to be 1.08±0.16 (stat)±0.26 (sys) in the 0%-20% most central Au+Au collisions for the transverse momentum (p_{T}) range 3<p_{T}<6 GeV/c. This is significantly larger than the pythia model calculations for p+p collisions. The measured Λ_{c}/D^{0} ratio, as a function of p_{T} and collision centrality, is comparable to the baryon-to-meson ratios for light and strange hadrons in Au+Au collisions. Model calculations including coalescence hadronization for charmed baryon and meson formation reproduce the features of our measured Λ_{c}/D^{0} ratio.

Abstract
In this work, we study a general approach to the estimation of single particle tracking models with time-varying parameters. The main idea is to use local Maximum Likelihood (ML), applying a sliding window over the data and estimating the model parameters in each window. We combine local ML with Expectation Maximization to iteratively find the ML estimate in each window, an approach that is amenable to generalization to nonlinear models. Results using controlled-experimental data generated in our lab show that our proposed algorithm is able to track changes in the parameters as they evolve during a trajectory under real-world experimental conditions, outperforming other algorithms of similar nature.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to retrospectively compare the imaging features of hepatic epithelioid angiomyolipoma (HEAML) to those of hepatocellular carcinoma negative for hepatitis B surface antigen and hepatitis C antibody (NBNC-HCC) on contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) with sulphur hexafluoride microbubbles. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-two patients (4 men, 18 women) with a mean age of 42.6±10.2 (SD) years (range: 22-63 years) with histopathologically confirmed HEMAL were included in the study. Forty-four patients (30 men, 14 women) with a mean age of 57.3±15.9 years (range: 19-85 years) with histopathologically confirmed NBNC-HCC were randomly selected from our institution's database as a control group. The CEUS characteristics of the two groups were compared. RESULTS On conventional ultrasound, significant differences in tumor diameter were found between HEAML (4.0±2.0 [SD] cm; range: 1.3-8.9cm) and NBNC-HCC (8.4±4.4 [SD] cm; range: 1.6-18cm) (P<0.001) as well as in degrees of enhancement during the portal (P=0.001) and late phases (P=0.003), contrast distribution (P<0.001) and absence of pseudocaspule (P<0.001). On CEUS, hyperenhancement during the arterial phase was observed in 21/22 (95.5%) HEAMLs and in 43/44 (97.7%) NBNC-HCCs (P>0.999). Homogeneous enhancement was more frequent in HEAMLs (20/22; 90.9%) than in NBNC-HCCs (13/44; 29.6%) (P<0.001). Pseudocapsule was observed in 0/22 HEAMLs (0.0%) and in 36/44 NBNC-HCCs (81.8%) (P=0.017). A prolonged enhancement was observed in 5/22 HEAMLs (22.7%) and in 0/44 NBNC-HCCs (0.0%) (P<0.001) during the late phase. CONCLUSION CEUS with sulphur hexafluoride microbubbles is helpful in discriminating between HEAML and NBNC-HCC. Homogeneous enhancement and lack of pseudocapsule are suggestive features for the diagnosis of HEAML.

Abstract
Background Iron deficiency in pregnancy is associated with inferior maternal and fetal outcomes. Postpartum depression, prematurity, intrauterine growth restriction, impaired childhood cognition and transfusion are all sequelae of maternal iron deficiency anemia. Transfusion to women of childbearing age has important consequences including increasing the risk of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn with future pregnancies. The relative contribution of iron deficiency to transfusion rates in the peripartum period is unknown. This study aimed to identify the prevalence of iron deficiency and anemia in pregnant women that received peripartum transfusions relative to age-matched non-transfused controls. Methods We performed a retrospective case-control study of all women that were transfused in the peripartum period from January, 2014 to July, 2018. Cases were compared to the next age matched control to deliver at our institution. The primary objective was to determine the proportion of patients with iron deficiency in pregnancy or anemia in pregnancy in cases and controls. Charts were reviewed for predisposing risk factors for iron deficiency, laboratory measures of iron deficiency and anemia, iron supplementation history and maternal and fetal outcomes. Factors associated with peripartum transfusion were analyzed using a multivariate logistic regression. Results 169 of 18, 294 (0.9%) women were transfused in the peripartum period and 64 (44%) of those transfused received 1 unit. Iron deficiency or anemia were present in 103 (71%) transfused women and 74 (51%) control women in pregnancy (OR 2.34, 95% CI: 3.7–18.0). Multivariate analysis identified social work involvement (adjusted OR 4.1, 95% CI: 1.8–10.1), intravenous iron supplementation in pregnancy (adjusted OR 3.8, 95% CI: 1.2–17.4) and delivery by unscheduled cesarean section (adjusted OR 2.8, 95% CI: 1.3–6.2) as significant predictors of peripartum transfusion. Conclusions Pregnant women being followed by a social worker, receiving intravenous iron supplementation in pregnancy or who deliver by unscheduled cesarean section are more likely to receive a red blood cell transfusion. Women with iron deficiency or anemia in pregnancy are at increased risk of peripartum blood transfusions and warrant early and rigorous iron supplementation.

Abstract
Estrogen-related receptors (ERRs) play indispensable roles in development, energy metabolism, and cancers and are metabolic switches in Drosophila. However, the mechanism underlying their metabolic role is unknown in insects. This study analysed the expression profiles of Bombyx mori ERR (BmERR), hexokinase (BmHK), pyruvate kinase (BmPK) and phosphofructokinase (BmPFK) during embryonic development. The expression of BmERR tended to be similar to that of the other genes. We observed a regulatory association between BmERR and glycolytic rate-limiting enzymes by BmERR overexpression, RNA interference (RNAi), and ERR inhibitors in B. mori embryo cells. Subsequently, ERR cis-regulation elements (ERREs) were predicted and identified in the BmPFK promoter. Transfection assays, electrophoretic mobility shift assays and chromatin immunoprecipitation showed that BmERR can bind to one of these elements to regulate the expression of BmPFK. ERREs were also predicted in the BmHK and BmPK promoters. In the eggs, the expression of glycolytic rate-limiting enzyme genes was suppressed when the expression of BmERR was interference by double-stranded BmERR, the glucose levels also was increased. Meanwhile, the development of silkworm embryos was delayed by about 1 day. These results indicate that BmERR can bind to the ERREs of glycolytic gene promoters and regulate the expression of glycolytic genes, ultimately affecting embryonic development in silkworms.

Abstract
PURPOSE Type 3 innate lymphocytes (ILC3s) are reported to be involved in lung cancer, possibly by producing interleukin-22 (IL-22). However, whether ILC3s and their secreted IL-22 molecules contribute to the pathogenesis of pancreatic cancer (PC) remains unclear. To this end, in this study, we investigated the effects and possible mechanisms of ILC3s on PC pathogenesis. METHOD The IL-22 and IL-2i2R levels and the ILC3s' frequency in cancer tissues from PC patients and in peripheral blood from PC patients and healthy controls were analyzed by flow cytometry, immunochemistry, or immunofluorescence. The effects of IL-22-induced AKT signaling on the proliferation, invasion, and migration of PC cells were examined by co-culturing PC cell lines with ILC3s isolated from PC tissues, with or without the addition of neutralizing IL-22 antibody, IL-22R antibody or AKT inhibitor. RESULTS Our results showed that IL-22 and ILC3s were significantly upregulated in the PBMCs and cancer tissues of PC patients, and the IL-22R level was increased in PC cells. The increased frequency of ILC3s was positively correlated with the clinical features of PC patients. Co-culture experiments indicated that ILC3s promoted the proliferation, invasion, and migration of PC cell lines by secreting IL-22 to activate AKT signaling because IL-22/IL-22R or AKT blockage markedly counteracted such effects on PC cells. CONCLUSION Our data demonstrated that ILC3s may promote PC pathogenesis through IL-22/IL-22R-AKT signaling, suggesting a potential intervention target for PC treatment in the future.
