Abstract
Objective: To explore the association between genetic variants of matrix metalloproteinase enzyme 2 (MMP2) gene and the blood pressure of children and adolescents. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed in 2016 and included 4 155 children and adolescents in the urban area of Guangzhou. Physical examinations (including body height, weight, and blood pressure), questionnaires (including general characteristics, physical exercise, parental educational level, household income, etc.), and blood sampling were performed. Multivariable linear regression models were used to investigate the associations of MMP2 genetic variations (rs243865, rs7201) and the genetic risk score (GRS) level with standardized blood pressure. Mediating effect of standardized body mass index (BMI) was further assessed by process analysis in the association between GRS level and blood pressure, and potential additive interaction between physical activity and GRS level was analyzed using the product term in the regression model. Results: A total of 4 155 primary and secondary schoolchildren were finally included in the analysis, consisting of 1 401 (33.7%) second grade pupils of primary school, 1 422 (34.2%) first grade pupils of middle school, and 1 332 (32.1%) first-grade students of senior high school. After adjusting for age, sex, parental educational level, and family income, as compared to the rs243865 TT genotype, the CC/CT genotype increased diastolic blood pressure (DBP) by 0.461 standard deviations (SD) (β for dominant model=0.461, 95%CI 0.199-0.723). When compared to the rs7201 CC genotype, the AA/AC genotype showed 0.147 SD higher systolic blood pressure (SBP) (β for recessive model=0.147, 95%CI 0.014-0.279) and 0.171 SD increased DBP (β for recessive model=0.171, 95%CI 0.039-0.304). For each increment of GRS level, SBP and DBP increased by 0.151 SD (β for dominant model=0.151, 95%CI 0.029-0.272) and 0.242 SD (β=0.242, 95%CI 0.120-0.363), respectively. The mediating effect of BMI accounted for 28.3% and 12.6% of the total effect of GRS on SBP and DBP, respectively. After controlling BMI, the direct effect of GRS on DBP remained statistically significant (P<0.001). The insufficient moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (<0.5 h/d) showed a significant interaction with GRS on SBP under additive scale (β for interaction=0.518, 95%CI 0.088-0.949, P=0.018). Conclusions: rs243865 and rs7201 variants in MMP2 gene are associated with the elevated blood pressure of children and adolescents. Obesity may yield a mediation role in the associations, while insufficient physical activity may have a positively additive interaction with MMP2 genetic variants.

Three-dimensional printing template for intraoperative localization of pulmonary nodules in the pleural cavity. JTCVS Tech 2022; 16:139-148. [PMID: 36510546 PMCID: PMC9737054 DOI: 10.1016/j.xjtc.2022.10.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2022] [Revised: 09/16/2022] [Accepted: 09/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives Localization of pulmonary nodules is challenging. However, traditional localization methods have high radiation doses and a high risk of complications. We developed a noninvasive 3-dimensional printing navigational template for intraoperative localization. It can reduce puncture-related complications and simplify the localization process. This study will verify the feasibility of this method. Methods Patients with peripheral pulmonary nodules were included in this study. The computed tomography scan sequences were obtained to design a digital template model, which was then imported into a 3-dimensional printer to produce a physical navigational template. Finally, the navigational template is placed into the patient's pleural cavity for intraoperative localization. The precision of the nodule localization and associated complications were evaluated. Results Twelve patients were finally included in this study. Intraoperative navigational template localization was used in all patients. The success rate of intraoperative nodule localization was 100%, and the median time of localization was 19.5 minutes (range, 16-23.5 minutes). The deviation median of the navigational template was 2.1 mm (range, 1.1-2.7 mm). Among the included patients, no significant complications occurred during intraoperative localization. Conclusions The 3-dimensional printing template for intraoperative localization is feasible, will cause no trauma to the patient, and has acceptable accuracy for application in nodules localization. This navigational template greatly simplifies the localization process and may potentially break the dependence of percutaneous localization on computed tomography scanning.

Abstract
Due to its ultra-high sensitivity, specificity and throughput, liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) has become an important analytical tool in clinical laboratories in quantifying various small molecules, such as vitamins, bile acids, steroids and other internal metabolites relevant to maternal diseases. As an effective means of screening and diagnosing diseases in preventive medicine, LC-MS/MS has been widely used in maternal and child health, contributing to the reduction of the incidence of maternal and child diseases and premature morbidity and mortality. At present, LC-MS/MS is an emerging and powerful platform in laboratory testing in China, facing both challenges and opportunities. In this article, the representative applications in the field of maternal and child health are summarized and discussed, along with the major hurdles of LC-MS/MS in clinical recognition and implementation.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical epidemiological characteristics including composition of pathogens , clinical characteristics, and disease prognosis acute bacterial meningitis (ABM) in Chinese children. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical and laboratory data of 1 610 children <15 years of age with ABM in 33 tertiary hospitals in China from January 2019 to December 2020. Patients were divided into different groups according to age,<28 days group, 28 days to <3 months group, 3 months to <1 year group, 1-<5 years of age group, 5-<15 years of age group; etiology confirmed group and clinically diagnosed group according to etiology diagnosis. Non-numeric variables were analyzed with the Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test, while non-normal distrituction numeric variables were compared with nonparametric test. Results: Among 1 610 children with ABM, 955 were male and 650 were female (5 cases were not provided with gender information), and the age of onset was 1.5 (0.5, 5.5) months. There were 588 cases age from <28 days, 462 cases age from 28 days to <3 months, 302 cases age from 3 months to <1 year of age group, 156 cases in the 1-<5 years of age and 101 cases in the 5-<15 years of age. The detection rates were 38.8% (95/245) and 31.5% (70/222) of Escherichia coli and 27.8% (68/245) and 35.1% (78/222) of Streptococcus agalactiae in infants younger than 28 days of age and 28 days to 3 months of age; the detection rates of Streptococcus pneumonia, Escherichia coli, and Streptococcus agalactiae were 34.3% (61/178), 14.0% (25/178) and 13.5% (24/178) in the 3 months of age to <1 year of age group; the dominant pathogens were Streptococcus pneumoniae and the detection rate were 67.9% (74/109) and 44.4% (16/36) in the 1-<5 years of age and 5-<15 years of age . There were 9.7% (19/195) strains of Escherichia coli producing ultra-broad-spectrum β-lactamases. The positive rates of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) culture and blood culture were 32.2% (515/1 598) and 25.0% (400/1 598), while 38.2% (126/330)and 25.3% (21/83) in CSF metagenomics next generation sequencing and Streptococcus pneumoniae antigen detection. There were 4.3% (32/790) cases of which CSF white blood cell counts were normal in etiology confirmed group. Among 1 610 children with ABM, main intracranial imaging complications were subdural effusion and (or) empyema in 349 cases (21.7%), hydrocephalus in 233 cases (14.5%), brain abscess in 178 cases (11.1%), and other cerebrovascular diseases, including encephalomalacia, cerebral infarction, and encephalatrophy, in 174 cases (10.8%). Among the 166 cases (10.3%) with unfavorable outcome, 32 cases (2.0%) died among whom 24 cases died before 1 year of age, and 37 cases (2.3%) had recurrence among whom 25 cases had recurrence within 3 weeks. The incidences of subdural effusion and (or) empyema, brain abscess and ependymitis in the etiology confirmed group were significantly higher than those in the clinically diagnosed group (26.2% (207/790) vs. 17.3% (142/820), 13.0% (103/790) vs. 9.1% (75/820), 4.6% (36/790) vs. 2.7% (22/820), χ2=18.71, 6.20, 4.07, all P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the unfavorable outcomes, mortility, and recurrence between these 2 groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions: The onset age of ABM in children is usually within 1 year of age, especially <3 months. The common pathogens in infants <3 months of age are Escherichia coli and Streptococcus agalactiae, and the dominant pathogen in infant ≥3 months is Streptococcus pneumoniae. Subdural effusion and (or) empyema and hydrocephalus are common complications. ABM should not be excluded even if CSF white blood cell counts is within normal range. Standardized bacteriological examination should be paid more attention to increase the pathogenic detection rate. Non-culture CSF detection methods may facilitate the pathogenic diagnosis.

Abstract
Gas exchange abnormalities is the pathophysiology characteristic of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The severity of gas exchange abnormalities not only reflect the severity and outcome of the disease, but could also be an important index to guide individual mechanical ventilation settings and evaluate the therapeutic effects of inhaled vasodilator. The common techniques to measure gas exchange include multiple inert gas elimination technique, automatic lung parameter estimator, electrical impedance tomography, and single-photon emission CT. Nowadays, bedside techniques and measurements for improving gas exchange function in ARDS patients are still limited. Therefore, the improvement and promotion of bedside real-time gas exchange monitoring technology may achieve the goal of personalized medicine in ARDS. This article reviewed the common evaluation methods of gas exchange function in ARDS and their significance, in order to pay more attention to the evaluation of gas exchange function and further improve the prognosis of patients with ARDS.

Abstract
Based on 10 billion J/ψ events collected at the BESIII experiment, a search for CP violation in Λ decay is performed in the difference between CP-odd decay parameters α_{-} for Λ→pπ^{-} and α_{+} for Λ[over ¯]→p[over ¯]π^{+} by using the process e^{+}e^{-}→J/ψ→ΛΛ[over ¯]. With a five-dimensional fit to the full angular distributions of the daughter baryon, the most precise values for the decay parameters are determined to be α_{-}=0.7519±0.0036±0.0024 and α_{+}=-0.7559±0.0036±0.0030, respectively. The Λ and Λ[over ¯] averaged value of the decay parameter is extracted to be α_{avg}=0.7542±0.0010±0.0024 with unprecedented accuracy. The CP asymmetry A_{CP}=(α_{-}+α_{+})/(α_{-}-α_{+}) is determined to be -0.0025±0.0046±0.0012, which is one of the most precise measurements in the baryon sector. The reported results for the decay parameter will play an important role in the studies of the polarizations and CP violations for the strange, charmed and beauty baryons.

Abstract
We study the direct production of the J^{PC}=1^{++} charmonium state χ_{c1}(1P) in electron-positron annihilation by carrying out an energy scan around the mass of the χ_{c1}(1P). The data were collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. An interference pattern between the signal process e^{+}e^{-}→χ_{c1}(1P)→γJ/ψ→γμ^{+}μ^{-} and the background processes e^{+}e^{-}→γ_{ISR}J/ψ→γ_{ISR}μ^{+}μ^{-} and e^{+}e^{-}→γ_{ISR}μ^{+}μ^{-} is observed by combining all the data samples. The χ_{c1}(1P) signal is observed with a significance of 5.1σ. This is the first observation of a C-even state directly produced in e^{+}e^{-} annihilation. The electronic width of the χ_{c1}(1P) resonance is determined to be Γ_{ee}=(0.12_{-0.08}^{+0.13}) eV, which is of the same order of magnitude as theoretical calculations.

Evidence for a Neutral Near-Threshold Structure in the K_{S}^{0} Recoil-Mass Spectra in e^{+}e^{-}→K_{S}^{0}D_{s}^{+}D^{*-} and e^{+}e^{-}→K_{S}^{0}D_{s}^{*+}D^{-}. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2022; 129:112003. [PMID: 36154413 DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.129.112003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2022] [Revised: 06/17/2022] [Accepted: 06/30/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
We study the processes e^{+}e^{-}→K_{S}^{0}D_{s}^{+}D^{*-} and e^{+}e^{-}→K_{S}^{0}D_{s}^{*+}D^{-}, as well as their charge conjugated processes, at five center-of-mass energies between 4.628 and 4.699 GeV, using data samples corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3.8 fb^{-1} collected by the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage ring. Based on a partial reconstruction technique, we find evidence of a structure near the thresholds for D_{s}^{+}D^{*-} and D_{s}^{*+}D^{-} production in the K_{S}^{0} recoil-mass spectrum, which we refer to as the Z_{cs}(3985)^{0}. Fitting with a Breit-Wigner line shape, we find the mass of the structure to be (3992.2±1.7±1.6) MeV/c^{2} and the width to be (7.7_{-3.8}^{+4.1}±4.3) MeV, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. The significance of the Z_{cs}(3985)^{0} signal is found to be 4.6σ including both the statistical and systematic uncertainty. We report the Born cross section multiplied by the branching fraction at different energy points. The mass of the Z_{cs}(3985)^{0} is close to that of the Z_{cs}(3985)^{+}. Assuming SU(3) symmetry, the cross section of the neutral channel is consistent with that of the charged one. Hence, we conclude that the Z_{cs}(3985)^{0} is the isospin partner of the Z_{cs}(3985)^{+}.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and the survival of re-operated patients for persistent/recurrent papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and risk factors for re-recurrence after the second operation. Method: A retrospective analysis of 69 cases underwent re-operation for persistent/recurrent PTC in Sichuan Cancer Hospital from January 2010 to December 2016 was performed. There were 21 males and 48 females, aged 14-85 (44.8) years old. According to the imaging after initial treatment, they were divided into a recurrence group (42 cases) and a persistent disease/residual group (27 cases). The positive rates of ipsilateral paratracheal lymph node metastases at re-operation were calculated and compared by chi-square test. Patients were divided into different subgroups according to potential risk factors for re-recurrence. Kaplan-Meier (K-M) method was used for survival analysis. Results: The positive rate of ipsilateral paratracheal lymph node metastasis in recurrence group (15/42, 35.7%) was significantly lower than that in the persistent disease/residual group (17/27, 63.0%) (χ2=4.91, P<0.05). The follow-up period after re-operation was 60-104 months, with a median of 66 months, and 8 patients were lost to follow-up. Permanent hypoparathyroidism occurred in 2 cases (2.9%) and permanent recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy in 1 case (1.4%). Twenty patients had structural recurrences and/or distant metastases. The 5-year disease-specific survival rate was 92.8% and the 5-year recurrence-free survival rate was 68.1%. Survival analysis was performed on risk factors such as age≥55 years old, recurrent tumor diameter ≥4 cm, number of positive lymph nodes ≥ 10, and obvious extracapsular invasion (ENE). Among them, age and diameter of recurrent tumor had significant influences on recurrence-free survival rate (χ2 was 6.36, 8.17, respectively, both P values<0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in recurrence-free survival rates between ENE(+) group and ENE(-) group (χ2=5.52, P<0.05). Conclusion: For the re-operated patients due to persistence/ recurrence PTC, attention should be paid to protecting the parathyroid gland and recurrent laryngeal nerve during re-operation. Timely and effective postoperative follow-up for patients aged ≥ 55 years, with recurrent tumor diameter ≥ 4 cm and ENE(+), can significantly improve their prognoses.

Observation of Resonance Structures in e^{+}e^{-}→π^{+}π^{-}ψ_{2}(3823) and Mass Measurement of ψ_{2}(3823). PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2022; 129:102003.

Abstract
Using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 11.3 fb^{-1} collected at center-of-mass energies from 4.23 to 4.70 GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the product of the e^{+}e^{-}→π^{+}π^{-}ψ_{2}(3823) cross section and the branching fraction B[ψ_{2}(3823)→γχ_{c1}]. For the first time, resonance structure is observed in the cross section line shape of e^{+}e^{-}→π^{+}π^{-}ψ_{2}(3823) with significances exceeding 5σ. A fit to data with two coherent Breit-Wigner resonances modeling the sqrt[s]-dependent cross section yields M(R_{1})=4406.9±17.2±4.5 MeV/c^{2}, Γ(R_{1})=128.1±37.2±2.3 MeV, and M(R_{2})=4647.9±8.6±0.8 MeV/c^{2}, Γ(R_{2})=33.1±18.6±4.1 MeV. Though weakly disfavored by the data, a single resonance with M(R)=4417.5±26.2±3.5 MeV/c^{2}, Γ(R)=245±48±13 MeV is also possible to interpret data. This observation deepens our understanding of the nature of the vector charmoniumlike states. The mass of the ψ_{2}(3823) state is measured as (3823.12±0.43±0.13) MeV/c^{2}, which is the most precise measurement to date.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the short-and mid-term efficacy of pediatric kidney transplantation and the risk factors for kidney graft and recipient. Methods: The baseline data and postoperative complications of pediatric donors and recipients of 284 kidney transplants were retrospectively analyzed in the Department of Kidney Transplantation in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from August 2010 to May 2021 and all subjects were followed up until December 31, 2021. According to the survival status of donors and recipients, they were divided into the graft-loss group and the graft-survival group, and the recipient death group and survival group, respectively. Univariate comparison between groups was performed by Log-rank test, and Cox proportional risk model was used to explore the independent risk factors for the graft and recipient survival. Results: Among the 284 children recipients, 184 cases (64.8%) were male and 100 cases(35.2%) were female, and 19 cases (6.7%) were living relative donor renal transplantation, 19 cases (6.7%) were preemptive transplantation, and 8 cases were secondary transplantation. The age of 284 recipients at the time of transplantation was 13.0 (9.0, 15.0) years, among whom 29 cases aged 0-6 years, 96 cases aged 7-11 years old, and 159 cases aged 12-18 years. The 1, 3, and 5 year survival rates were 92.3%, 88.9% and 84.8% for the kidney grafts, and were 97.1%, 95.6% and 94.4% for the recipients, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed postoperative acute rejection (HR=3.14, 95%CI 1.38-7.15, P=0.006) and perioperative vascular complications (HR=4.73, 95%CI 2.03-11.06, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for the survival of kidney graft. Postoperative infection (HR=14.23, 95%CI 3.45-58.72, P<0.001) was an independent risk factor for the postoperative mortality of recipients. Conclusions: Pediatric kidney transplantation shows a good short-and mid-term prognosis.

Abstract
Classical swine fever (CSF) and porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) are responsible for major economic losses and represent a threat to the swine industry worldwide. Routine surveillance serology for CSF and PRRS viruses is critical to maintaining the health status of sow farms in Hunan Province, which is one of the top pig production provinces in China. The aim of our study was to investigate the serological statistics of CSF virus (CSFV) and PRRS virus (PRRSV) in Hunan Province. The cohort serum samples were collected from vaccinated and unvaccinated pigs. Our findings showed that the average rates of CSFV and PRRSV antibody seropositivity were 82.2% (95% CI: 80.1-84.3) and 84.8% (95% CI: 82.5-87.1), respectively, in the immunized group and that these rates were higher than those in the unvaccinated group (58.6% for CSFV and 47.8% for PRRSV). Additionally, the level of CSFV antibody in piglet serum declined gradually with age, whereas PRRSV-specific antibody level increased initially (1 to 2 weeks old) and then declined with age (2 to 4 weeks old). In summary, we investigated the difference in CSFV/PRRSV antibody levels among piglets at various weeks old (1 to 4 weeks) to further establish the duration of maternal immunity in piglets. In addition, routine monitoring of CSFV/PRRSV antibodies in immunized pigs was carried out to evaluate the efficacy of vaccination.

Abstract
The human microbiome plays an important role in our health and identifying factors associated with microbiome composition provides insights into inherent disease mechanisms. By amplifying and sequencing the marker genes in high-throughput sequencing, with highly similar sequences binned together, we obtain operational taxonomic units (OTUs) profiles for each subject. Due to the high-dimensionality and nonnormality features of the OTUs, the measure of diversity is introduced as a summarization at the microbial community level, including the distance-based beta-diversity between individuals. Analyses of such between-subject attributes are not amenable to the predominant within-subject-based statistical paradigm, such as t-tests and linear regression. In this paper, we propose a new approach to model beta-diversity as a response within a regression setting by utilizing the functional response models (FRMs), a class of semiparametric models for between- as well as within-subject attributes. The new approach not only addresses limitations of current methods for beta-diversity with cross-sectional data, but also provides a premise for extending the approach to longitudinal and other clustered data in the future. The proposed approach is illustrated with both real and simulated data.

Abstract
Background Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a malignant tumor, which poses a serious threat to human health. Histone 3 lysine 9 trimethylation (H3K9me3) is a post-translational modification involved in regulating a broad range of biological processes and has been considered as potential therapeutic target in types of cancer. However, there is limited research on investigating profiles of histone modification H3K9me3 in ICC patients. Methods In this study, we applied the ChIP-seq technique to investigate the effect of H3K9me3 on ICC. Anti-H3K9me3 antibody was used for ChIP-seq in ICC (RBE cell lines) and HIBEpic (normal cell lines). MACS2 (peak-calling tools) was then used to identify the peaks recorded in RBE and HIBEpic cell lines. Gene expression, mutation and clinical data were downloaded from TCGA and cBioPortal databases. Results H3K9me3 exhibited abnormal methylation and influenced the process of abnormal gene expression in patients suffering from ICC. The Wnt/β-Catenin signaling pathway (also known as simply the WNT signaling pathway) was enriched in H3K9me3-regulated genes. Conclusions We are the first to report that H3K9me3 may play an important role in the progression of ICC. It promotes the understanding of epigenetic molecular mechanisms for ICC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the survival rates and quality of life of human papillomaviruse (HPV)-negative patients with advanced oropharyngeal cancer after different combined treatments with chemotherapy, surgery and radiotherapy. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the data of patients with oropharyngeal cancer hospitalized in our hospital from January, 2015 to December, 2020, and after case analysis of the clinical, imaging and pathological data, 405 patients were included in this study and grouped according to the treatments they received. Kaplan-Meier and Log-rank analysis were used to calculate the overall survival rate and the survival rate of patients with different treatments. The self-rated quality of life of the tumor-free survivors was assessed using UW-QOL (4) questionnaire and compared among the patients with different treatments. RESULTS Among the 405 patients included in this study, 146 received treatments with chemotherapy+surgery+radiotherapy (CSRT), 138 received surgery+radiotherapy (SRT) and 121 were treated with radiotherapy+chemotherapy (RCT). The overall survival rates of the 3 groups at 1, 3 and 5 years were 85.1%, 67.1% and 56.9%, respectively, and the survival rates of patients receiving CSRT, SRT and RCT did not differ significantly (P > 0.05). A total of 280 UW-QOL (4) questionnaires were distributed and 202 (72.14%) were retrieved. The average total scores decreased in the order of CSRT > SRT > RCT; the scores were significantly higher in CSRT group than in SRT and RCT (P < 0.05), but did not differ significantly between SRT and RCT groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION CSRT, SRT and RCT are all treatment options for locally advanced oropharyngeal cancer, but CSRT may achieve better quality of life of the patients than SRT and RCT.

Abstract
N-Methylated amino acids (N-MeAAs) are privileged residues of naturally occurring peptides critical to bioactivity. However, de novo discovery from ribosome display is limited by poor incorporation of N-methylated amino acids into the nascent peptide chain attributed to a poor EF-Tu affinity for the N-methyl-aminoacyl-tRNA. By reconfiguring the tRNA's T-stem region to compensate and tune the EF-Tu affinity, we conducted Random nonstandard Peptides Integrated Discovery (RaPID) display of a macrocyclic peptide (MCP) library containing six different N-MeAAs. We have here devised a "pool-and-split" enrichment strategy using the RaPID display and identified N-methylated MCPs against three species of prokaryotic metal-ion-dependent phosphoglycerate mutases. The enriched MCPs reached 57% N-methylation with up to three consecutively incorporated N-MeAAs, rivaling natural products. Potent nanomolar inhibitors ranging in ortholog selectivity, strongly mediated by N-methylation, were identified. Co-crystal structures reveal an architecturally related Ce-2 Ipglycermide active-site metal-ion-coordinating Cys lariat MCP, functionally dependent on two cis N-MeAAs with broadened iPGM species selectivity over the original nematode-selective MCPs. Furthermore, the isolation of a novel metal-ion-independent Staphylococcus aureus iPGM inhibitor utilizing a phosphoglycerate mimetic mechanism illustrates the diversity of possible chemotypes encoded by the N-MeAA MCP library.

Abstract
A new visible imaging system characterizing a flexible optical design and delivering high resolution frames is established on the HL-2A tokamak. It features a modular configuration, consisting of a front-end imaging lens, a set of bilateral telecentric relay lenses, and a camera. To avoid the effects of plasma radiation (x and gamma-rays) and magnetic field variation on the camera, it should be away from the coils. Therefore, the length of the relay lenses determines the total size of the imaging system. The main feature of this imaging system is to realize the variation of field of view (FOV) by interchanging the front-end prime lenses or by using a zoom lens directly rather than designing the optical system afresh, which lowers the cost drastically. The primary purpose of varying FOV is to enrich the versatility of this system, i.e., focusing on a narrow FOV such as gas puff imaging or a wide FOV such as the plasma cross sections. During the HL-2A experiments, this visible imaging system is used to provide high quality pictures of the plasma-wall interaction, divertor detachment, pellet injections, and so on. The frames confirmed that a strong radiation close to the X point is correlated with the completely detached inner target.

Abstract
The copper redhorse (Moxostoma hubbsi) is an endangered fish that spawns exclusively in the Richelieu River (Quebec, Canada). Tributaries of the Richelieu are contaminated with high levels of current-use pesticides, which may impact early-life stage (ELS) copper redhorse and other native fishes. We assessed the effects of exposure to contaminated river water on ELS copper redhorse and river redhorse (Moxostoma carinatum), a related fish that shares the copper redhorse's spawning grounds and nursery habitat. A riverside flow-through system was used to expose copper and river redhorse embryos (1000 each) to Richelieu River water or laboratory water as a control. Fish were maintained until 14 days posthatch, and water samples were taken daily for chemical analysis. Following a heavy rain event, concentrations of two neonicotinoid pesticides, clothianidin and thiamethoxam, exceeded water quality guidelines for aquatic life (20 ng/L). Using nontargeted screening, we tentatively identified an additional 24 pharmaceutical and personal care products and 23 pesticides in river water. Effects of river water on ELS fish were observed in both species, but the copper redhorse appeared to be more sensitive. Fish exposed to river water hatched 10.7 (copper redhorse) and 2.4 (river redhorse) cumulative degree days earlier than controls. Copper redhorse survival was significantly lower in river water (73 ± 16%) compared to laboratory water (93 ± 3%), whereas river redhorse survival was similar between treatments (84 ± 6% and 89 ± 4%, respectively). Sequencing of copper redhorse larvae RNA revealed 18 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) following 14 days of exposure to river water. Eight up-regulated DEGs were linked to immune function and injury response, and seven down-regulated DEGs were involved with digestion and nutrient absorption. The present study provided valuable data on the effects of ELS exposure to a real-world mixture of contaminants in two fish species of concern. Environ Toxicol Chem 2022;41:1950-1966. © 2022 SETAC.

Abstract
The prediction of magnetic phase transitions often requires model Hamiltonians to describe the necessary magnetic interactions. The advance of machine learning provides an opportunity to build a unified approach that can treat various magnetic systems without proposing new model Hamiltonians. Here, we develop such an approach by proposing a novel set of descriptors that describes the magnetic interactions and training the artificial neural network (ANN) that plays the role of a universal magnetic Hamiltonian. We then employ this approach and Monte Carlo simulation to investigate the magnetic phase transition of two-dimensional monolayer chromium trihalides using the trained ANNs as energy calculator. We show that the machine-learning-based approach shows advantages over traditional methods in the investigation of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic phase transitions, demonstrating its potential for other magnetic systems.

Abstract
Based on (10087±44)×10^{6} J/ψ events collected with the BESIII detector, the process J/ψ→γπ^{+}π^{-}η^{'} is studied using two largest decay channels of the η^{'} meson, η^{'}→γπ^{+}π^{-} and η^{'}→ηπ^{+}π^{-}, η→γγ. A new resonance, which we denote as the X(2600), is observed with a statistical significance larger than 20σ in the π^{+}π^{-}η^{'} invariant mass spectrum, and it has a connection to a structure around 1.5 GeV/c^{2} in the π^{+}π^{-} invariant mass spectrum. A simultaneous fit on the π^{+}π^{-}η^{'} and π^{+}π^{-} invariant mass spectra with the two η^{'} decay modes indicates that the mass and width of the X(2600) state are 2618.3±2.0_{-1.4}^{+16.3} MeV/c^{2} and 195±5_{-17}^{+26} MeV, where the first uncertainties are statistical, and the second systematic.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of body mass index (BMI) on the recurrence risk of breast cancer. STUDY DESIGN Dose-response meta-analysis. METHODS Cohort studies that included BMI and the recurrence of breast cancer were selected through various databases including PubMed, Web of Science, the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chinese Scientific Journals (VIP), and Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform (WanFang) until November 30, 2021. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was used to evaluate the quality of literature. A two-stage random-effects meta-analysis was performed to assess the dose-response relationship between BMI and breast cancer recurrence risk. Heterogeneity between studies is assessed using I2. RESULTS The relative risk (RR) of BMI <25 kg/m2 vs BMI ≥25 kg/m2, BMI <30 kg/m2 vs BMI ≥30 kg/m2 were 1.09 (95% CI: 1.00-1.19) and 1.15 (95% CI: 1.04-1.27), suggesting that BMI had a significant effect on the recurrence risk of breast cancer, and there might be a dose-response relationship between them. A total of 21 studies were included in dose-response meta-analysis, which showed that there was a positive linear correlation between BMI and the risk of recurrence (RR = 1.02, 95% CI: 1.01-1.03). For every 1 kg/m2 increment of BMI, the risk of recurrence increased by approximately 2%. In subgroup analyses, positive linear dose-response relationships between BMI and recurrence risk were observed among Asian and study period >10 years groups. For every 1 kg/m2 increment of BMI, the risk of recurrence increased by 3.41% and 1.87%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The recurrence risk of breast cancer increases with BMI, which is most obvious among Asian women.

Using a sample of about 10^{10} J/ψ events collected at a center-of-mass energy sqrt[s]=3.097 GeV with the BESIII detector, the electromagnetic Dalitz decays J/ψ→e^{+}e^{-}π^{+}π^{-}η^{'}, with η^{'}→γπ^{+}π^{-} and η^{'}→π^{+}π^{-}η, have been studied. The decay J/ψ→e^{+}e^{-}X(1835) is observed with a significance of 15σ, and also an e^{+}e^{-} invariant-mass dependent transition form factor of J/ψ→e^{+}e^{-}X(1835) is presented for the first time. The intermediate states X(2120) and X(2370) are also observed in the π^{+}π^{-}η^{'} invariant-mass spectrum with significances of 5.3σ and 7.3σ. The corresponding product branching fractions for J/ψ→e^{+}e^{-}X, X→π^{+}π^{-}η^{'} [X=X(1835), X(2120), and X(2370)] are reported.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the pathological characteristics, treatment and prognosis of synovial sarcoma of head and neck. Methods: The clinical data of 24 patients with synovial sarcoma of the head and neck treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2012 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 16 males and eight females, aged 17 to 75 years. The pathological features, treatment and follow-up were summarized. Cumulative survival was estimated by Kaplan-Meier method. Results: All patients' diagnoses were confirmed by pathological examinations. Most cases showed the tumors were composed of spindle cells under microscope, with the characteristics of malignant tumor cells, and some tumors also showed epithelioid cell morphology, forming the typical pathological characteristics of biphasic differentiation. Except for one patient who could not tolerate surgery and the diagnosis was only confirmed by biopsy, the remaining 23 patients received surgical treatment, including three patients receiving surgical treatment alone, five patients receiving post-operative adjuvant radiotherapy, seven patients receiving post-operative adjuvant chemotherapy, and eight patients receiving post-operative adjuvant radiotherapy. Follow-up time was 3.0-114.1 months (median follow-up time: 25.2 months), including two cases of loss to follow-up, 10 cases of recurrence, five cases of lung metastases, one case of bone metastasis, and 12 cases of death. The 1-year, 3-year and 5-year survival rates for the 24 patients with synovial sarcoma of head and neck were 74.4%, 58.9% and 39.2%, respectively. Conclusion: Synovial sarcoma of the head and neck has a high recurrence rate, common distant metastasis and poor prognosis. Histopathology and immunohistochemical examinations are an important basis for diagnosis, if necessary, combined with molecular genetics. Surgical resection is the main treatment, preferring radical or expanded resection.

Abstract
Chronic inflammation is a typical feature and a major impediment in refractory diabetic foot ulcer (DFU). High levels of extracellular cell-free nucleic acid (cfDNA) have recently been known to play a critical role in the cause of inflammation. Herein, we fabricated polyacrylamide-based cationic hydrogels and topically applied them to the ulcer of a diabetic rat model. The cfDNA level in the wound area was significantly reduced after hydrogel adsorption, and the level of inflammation was eliminated. In turn, the wound closure was significantly promoted without introducing systemic toxicity. Cationic hydrogels represent an effective material to combat uncontrolled inflammation in DFU.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the clinical efficacy of (stomatognathic system functional exercise(SSFE) in the treatment of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA), and to provide reference for the clinical treatment of TMJOA. Methods: Choose between January 2020 and June 2020 in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University of Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD) Clinics, pain in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), limited openings for complained of symptoms of TMD patients, diagnosed by clinical examination and cone beam CT (CBCT) examination of TMJOA patients 60 patients (64 joints), including 20 males and 45 females, the age was (42.6±2.5) years (33-47 years old). The patients were randomly divided into the experimental group (30 cases, 34 joints) and the control group (30 cases, 30 joints) according to the odd and even numbers of their treatment numbers. The experimental group was treated with SSFE method. The control group was treated with maxillary full dentition occlusal splint. Visual analogue score (VAS), natural mouth opening and maximal mouth opening (MMO) of each patient in each group were recorded at initial diagnosis, 2 weeks, 3 and 6 months after treatment, and CBCT imaging was compared for the changes of condylar bone at initial diagnosis, 3 and 6 months after treatment. Results: VAS values of the experimental groups were (2.90±1.42), (0.90±0.37), (0.87±0.23) at 2 weeks, 3 and 6 months after treatment, respectively. The VAS values of the control group were (4.57±1.94), (4.17±2.09), (3.73±2.21), respectively. The VAS score of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group (F=42.93, P<0.001). Before SSFE treatment, all the patients in the experimental group had different degrees of restricted opening and characteristic abnormal opening and closing pattern. Two weeks after SSFE treatment, the opening degree of the patients was (37.69±2.4)mm, the opening shape "↓" and the closing shape "↑" were normal. At 3 and 6 months after treatment, the oral opening was (38.98±1.08) mm and (39.73±1.76) mm, respectively. The opening degree of control group was (36.85±2.33) mm 2 weeks after treatment, and the characteristic abnormal opening and closing pattern still existed. The opening degree of control group was (37.82±1.85) mm and (37.40±1.75) mm 3 and 6 months after treatment, respectively. The characteristic abnormal opening and closing pattern (stuffy, awkward, deliberate, unnatural) did not improve significantly. The openness of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group (F=25.20, P<0.001). In the experimental group, 82.4% (28/34) had benign remodeling of condylar bone 6 months after treatment, and 17.6% (6/34) had no change of condylar bone. There was no significant change in condylar bone in control group. CBCT scores of the experimental group were (2.43±1.74) and (1.70±1.26) at 3 and 6 months after treatment, respectively. CBCT scores of the control group at 3 and 6 months after treatment were (4.23±1.50) and (4.10±1.37), they were significantly lower in the experimental group than in the control group (F=27.20, P<0.001). Conclusions: Full dentition occlusal splint can alleviate the pain in the joint area of TMJOA patients, but can not improve the characteristic abnormal mandibular movement, and the condyle bone repair is not obvious. SSFE can effectively relieve the symptoms and signs of TMJOA patients, especially improve the abnormal characteristic mandibular movement, and promote the normal reconstruction and repair of condylar bone.

Abstract
Objectives: To evaluate the role of pancreas multidisciplinary team(MDT) clinic in the diagnosis of pancreatic diseases,patient compliance with MDT advice,and the impact of MDT on the postoperative survival of patients with pancreatic cancer. Methods: The study included 927 patients(554 males,373 females,aged (58.1±13.3)years (range: 15 to 89 years)) that had visited the pancreas MDT clinic of Zhongshan Hospital from May 2015 to December 2021,and 677 patients(396 males, 281 females, aged (63.6±8.9)years(range: 32 to 95 years)) who underwent radical surgery and with pathologically confirmed pancreatic adenocarcinoma from January 2012 to December 2020,of whom 79 patients had attended the pancreas MDT. The clinical and pathological data were collected and analyzed retrospectively. Diseases were classified in accordance with 2010 WHO classification of tumors of the digestive system and usual clinical practices. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for drawing the survival curve and calculating the survival rate. The univariate analysis was done by Log-rank test and the multivariate analysis was done by COX proportional hazards model. Survival rates were compared using χ2 test. Results: Among the 927 patients that had visited the MDT clinic,233 patients(25.1%) were referred due to undetermined diagnosis. A direct diagnosis was made in 109 cases (46.8%,109/233) by the MDT clinic, of which 98 were consistent with the final diagnosis,resulting in an accuracy of 89.9%(98/109). The direct diagnosis rate in the recent years(36.6%(41/112),from June 2019 to December 2021) decreased compared to that in the previous years(56.2%(68/121),from May 2015 to May 2019),yet the accuracy in the recent years(90.2%,37/41) was basically the same as before (89.7%,61/68). The rate of compliance of the entire cohort was 71.5%(663/927), with the compliance rate in the recent two and a half years(81.4%,338/415) remarkably higher than that in the previous four years(63.4%,325/512). Patients with pancreatic cancer that attended the MDT exhibited a trend toward longer median postoperative survival than patients that did not attend the MDT,but the difference was not statistically significant(35.2 months vs.30.2 months,P>0.05). The 1-year and 3-year survival rates of patients that attended the MDT were significanly higher than patients that did not attend the MDT(88.6% vs. 78.4%,P<0.05;32.9% vs. 21.9%,P<0.05,respectively),but the 5-year survival rate was not statistically different(7.6% vs. 4.8%,P>0.05). Conclusions: The pancreas MDT clinic is an accurate and convenient way to diagnose intractable pancreatic diseases,and in the recent years the patients' compliance rate with MDT advice has increased. Pancreatic cancer patients that have attended the MDT have higher 1-year and 3-year postoperative survival rates,but the long-term survival benefits of MDT still needs to be proved by clinical studies on a larger scale.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the current status and evaluate the equity of health human resource allocation for echinococcosis control in Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, so as to provide the empirical evidence for optimizing the health human resource allocation for echinococcosis control. METHODS A questionnaire survey was performed to collect the numbers of health human sources for echinococcosis control, including health workers, healthcare professionals, certified/assistant physicians and registered nurses, per 1 000 permanent residents, per 1 000 m2, per 1 000 residents screened using Bmode ultrasonography and per 1 000 echinococcosis patients in two highly endemic counties and three lowly endemic counties in Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province from 2016 to 2019. The equity of health human resource allocation for echinococcosis control was evaluated by permanent residents and geographical areas using Lorenz curve and Gini index in Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture from 2016 to 2019. RESULTS The numbers of health workers, healthcare professionals, certified/assistant physicians and registered nurses per 1 000 permanent residents, per 1 000 permanent residents, per 1 000 m2, per 1 000 residents screened using B-mode ultrasonography and per 1 000 echinococcosis patients were 0.99-, 1.06-, 1.78- and 1.88-fold; 3.38-, 3.67-, 6.00- and 6.00-fold; 1.64-, 1.74-, 3.22- and 3.18-fold; and 64.92-, 70.39-, 139.34- and 117.44-fold more in lowly endemic counties than in highly endemic countries in Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, 2019. The Gini indexes of health human resource allocation for echinococcosis control were 0.371 to 0.397 by permanent residents and 0.477 to 0.591 by geographical areas in Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture from 2016 to 2019, and the Gini indexes (0.469 to 0.730) for allocation of certified/assistant physicians and registered nurses were both higher than those of health workers and healthcare professionals (0.302 to 0.451) by both permanent residents and geographical areas. CONCLUSIONS The health human resource allocation for echinococcosis control showed general equity by permanent residents and poor equity by geographical areas in Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province from 2016 to 2019.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Over the past few years, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been regarded as effective for treating various diseases. Among the types of MSCs, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) have been widely studied because of their advantages in non-invasive damage to donors and the wide range of sources. MAIN BODY This article reviews three aspects of hUC-MSCs. Foremost are the latest advances in the cultivation and preparation methods of hUC-MSCs. Furthermore, the treatments mechanism of hUC-MSCs in organ transplantation and liver diseases. Finally, a summary of their use in clinical trials in liver diseases. The first part of this paper emphasizes the differences between the selection area and culture factors, including the separation method, long-term culturing in vitro, medium composition, serum, and three-dimensional (3D) skeleton system training, which could affect the characteristics of hUC-MSCs and the treatment of diseases. The second section mainly stresses the mechanisms of hUC-MSCs in the treatment of diseases, including immunoregulation and transdifferentiation into hepatocyte-like cells. Many new technologies mark and track cells in vivo and their safety. Briefly mention its role in the treatment of other diseases and vaccine preparation. In the third part , to accelerate the application of hUC-MSCs in the treatment of clinical diseases, it is necessary to expand the sample size of clinical trials to ensure their safety in the human body and determine the most effective infusion method and volume. CONCLUSION hUC-MSCs have a substantial potential to become a more effective treatment for liver diseases. Clinical trials and mechanisms have laid the foundation for the normalization of clinical hUC-MSCs delivery.

Abstract
Background Asthma is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in humans. The mechanisms of asthma are still not fully understood. Leukocyte-specific protein-1 (LSP-1) regulates neutrophil migration during acute lung inflammation. However, its role in asthma remains unknown. Methods An OVA-induced mouse asthma model in LSP1-deficient (Lsp1−/−) and wild-type (WT) 129/SvJ mice were used to test the hypothesis that the absence of LSP1 would inhibit airway hyperresponsiveness and lung inflammation. Results Light and electron microscopic immunocytochemistry and Western blotting showed that, compared with normal healthy lungs, the levels of LSP1 were increased in lungs of OVA-asthmatic mice. Compared to Lsp1−/− OVA mice, WT OVA mice had higher levels of leukocytes in broncho-alveolar lavage fluid and in the lung tissues (P < 0.05). The levels of OVA-specific IgE but not IgA and IgG1 in the serum of WT OVA mice was higher than that of Lsp1−/− OVA mice (P < 0.05). Deficiency of LSP1 significantly reduced the levels of IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-13, and CXCL1 (P < 0.05) but not total proteins in broncho-alveolar lavage fluid in asthmatic mice. The airway hyper-responsiveness to methacholine in Lsp1−/− OVA mice was improved compared to WT OVA mice (P < 0.05). Histology revealed more inflammation (inflammatory cells, and airway and blood vessel wall thickening) in the lungs of WT OVA mice than in those of Lsp1−/− OVA mice. Finally, immunohistology showed localization of LSP1 protein in normal and asthmatic human lungs especially associated with the vascular endothelium and neutrophils. Conclusion These data show that LSP1 deficiency reduces airway hyper-responsiveness and lung inflammation, including leukocyte recruitment and cytokine expression, in a mouse model of asthma.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer is the third most common malignancy that leads to significant mortality around the world. Chronic colonic inflammation could induce a protumor effect by the massive release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, facilitating migration, invasion, and metastasis of malignant cells in colorectal cancer. Therefore, developing a combination regimen of anti-inflammation and antitumor therapies is a promising strategy for the treatment of colorectal cancer. Here, we report that tannic acid-containing nanoparticles, formed by a turbulent-mixing technique, have exhibited uniform size, high stability, and pH-triggered drug release in the gastrointestinal tract, and could overcome intestinal mucosa for drug delivery in the colorectal region. As a drug carrier itself, with potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, tannic acid-containing nanoparticles showed great therapeutic effect in preventing the development of colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CAC) through oral administration. Furthermore, we used a therapeutic nanocarrier to deliver chemotherapeutic drugs for CAC treatment, generating lower systemic toxicity and superior antitumor performance through concurrent anti-inflammation and antitumor treatment. As a result, we confirmed that the drug carrier itself with therapeutic function could improve the overall therapeutic performance, and provided a safe and effective tannic acid-containing nanoplatform for the prevention and treatment of colon diseases.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of endoscopic operation volume on musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) of shoulder, neck and elbow. Methods: From December 2019 to March 2020, random sampling was used to select 200 gastroenterologists from hospitals at or above the municipal level in Sichuan Province as the research object. Gastroenterologists were divided into 108 eadoscop in the low operation group (The operation volume is less than 5 000 cases) and 92 eadoscop in the high operation group (The operation volume is more than 5 000 cases) according to the operation volume. MSDS was investigated by UCLA shoulder scoring system, Tanaka Jingjiu cervical spondylosis scale and improved An and Morrey elbow scoring system, and the chi-square test was used to compare the basic conditions of different body parts in the two groups. The basic condition of each part of the two groups was tested and compared. Results: Compared with the low operation group, the age and working years of the high operation group were longer, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.001). The most painful part between the two groups was the shoulder, accounting for 25.9% (28/108) and 37.0% (34/92), respectively. Occasional shoulder pain was the most (41.9%, 26/62) and normal function was the most (32.3%, 20/62) ; The forward flexion angle exceeds 150° at most (40.3%, 25/62). Slight pain often occurred in the neck, accounting for 57.7% (15/26), the occasional impact of pain on the upper limbs accounted for 61.5% (16/26), and the impact on the fingers accounted for 53.8% (14/26) ; 65.0% (15/26) had mild disturbance to the sense of signs; Normal tendon reflex accounted for 88.5% (23/26) ; The influence of opponents was weakness, discomfort and no dysfunction, accounting for 53.8% (14/26) ; Endoscopists with normal muscle strength (2 points) and mild decline accounted for 50.0% (13/26) respectively, and there was no significant difference among the groups (P=0.234、1.000、1.000、0.050、0.680、0.539、0.431、0.239). The elbow score scale showed that mild loss accounted for 55.0% (11/20), mild instability accounted for 65% (13/20), and mild pain accounted for 55.0% (11/20) . Conclusion: MSDs is a health problem faced by endoscopists, and targeted preventive measures should be taken for its possible causes.
