Abstract
Lipids are the primary form of energy storage and a major component of plasma membranes, which form the interface between the cell and the extracellular environment. Several lipids - including phosphoinositide, phosphatidic acid, sphingolipids, lysophospholipids, oxylipins, and free fatty acids - also serve as substrates for the generation of signalling molecules. Abiotic stresses, such as drought and temperature stress, are known to affect plant growth. In addition, abiotic stresses can activate certain lipid-dependent signalling pathways that control the expression of stress-responsive genes and contribute to plant stress adaptation. Many studies have focused either on the enzymatic production and metabolism of lipids, or on the mechanisms of abiotic stress response. However, there is little information regarding the roles of plant lipids in plant responses to abiotic stress. In this review, we describe the metabolism of plant lipids and discuss their involvement in plant responses to abiotic stress. As such, this review provides crucial background for further research on the interactions between plant lipids and abiotic stress.

Abstract
With the development of critical care medicine, the case fatality rate in intensive care units (ICU) patients has decreased significantly, but most patients still suffer from the long-term problems of related complications after discharge, which seriously affects the quality of life and social integration after discharge. Complications such as ICU acquired weakness (ICU-AW) and Post-ICU Syndrome (PICS) are not uncommon throughout the treatment of severe patients. The treatment of critically ill patients should not only focus on the treatment of the disease, but also gradually extend to the whole-process physiological-psychological-social medical intervention mode in the ICU, during the stay in the general ward and after discharge. On the basis of ensuring patient safety, patients' physical and psychological status assessment in the early stage of ICU admission, and disease prevention as soon as possible, which can reduce the long-term impact on the quality of life and social work after discharge.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Body surface area (BSA)-based dosing of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) results in marked inter-individual variability in drug levels, whereas determination of plasma 5-FU concentration and area under the curve (AUC) is a more precise dosing method but has not been integrated into clinical routine. We conducted a multicenter, prospective study to study 5-FU AUC distributions and assess clinical factors predicting therapeutic dosing in patients receiving BSA-dosed 5-FU. METHODS Between June 2017 and January 2018, a total of 434 patients receiving continuous, infusional BSA-dosed 5-FU from 37 sites in Germany were included. Plasma 5-FU concentration and AUC were measured in venous blood samples at steady state. The primary objective was to determine 5-FU AUC distributions in relation to the target range, which is defined as 20-30 mg × h/l. The second objective was to explore clinical parameters that correlate with achievement of 5-FU AUC target range. RESULTS The primary tumor was mainly located in the gastrointestinal tract (96.3%), with colorectal cancer being the most common (71.2%) tumor entity. 5-FU was administered as monotherapy (8.1%) or as part of FOLFOX (33.2%), FOLFIRI (26.3%), or other regimens (12.4%). Treatment setting was adjuvant (31.3%) or metastatic (64.5%). The median AUC was 16 mg × h/l. Only 20.3% of patients received 5-FU treatment within the target range, whereas the majority of patients (60.6%) were underdosed and 19.1% of patients were overdosed. In the univariate logistic regression, treatment setting was the only clinical parameter that significantly correlated with achievement of the target range. Patients treated in the metastatic setting had a 2.1 (95% confidence interval 1.186-3.776, P = 0.011) higher odds to reach the target range compared with patients treated in the adjuvant setting. CONCLUSIONS The majority of patients received suboptimal doses of 5-FU using BSA dosing. Therapeutic drug monitoring of 5-FU is an option for optimized individualized cancer therapy and should be integrated into the clinical practice.

Abstract
This analysis introduces a stochastic herd simulation model and evaluates the estimated reproductive and economic performance of combinations of reproductive management programs for both heifers and lactating cows. The model simulates the growth, reproductive performance, production, and culling for individual animals and integrates individual animal outcomes to represent herd dynamics daily. The model has an extensible structure, allowing for future modification and expansion, and has been integrated into the Ruminant Farm Systems model, a holistic dairy farm simulation model. The herd simulation model was used to compare outcomes of 10 reproductive management scenarios based on common practices on US farms with combinations of estrous detection (ED) and artificial insemination (AI), synchronized estrous detection (synch-ED) and AI, timed AI (TAI, 5-d CIDR-Synch) programs for heifers; and ED, a combination of ED and TAI (ED-TAI, Presynch-Ovsynch), and TAI (Double-Ovsynch) with or without ED during the reinsemination period for lactating cows. The simulation was run for a 1,000-cow (milking and dry) herd for 7 yr, and we used the outcomes from the final year to evaluate results. The model accounted for incomes from milk, sold calves, and culled heifers and cows, as well as costs from breeding, AI, semen, pregnancy diagnosis, and calf, heifer, and cow feed. We found that the interaction between heifer and lactating dairy cow reproductive management programs influences herd economic performance primarily due to heifer rearing costs and replacement heifer supply. The greatest net return (NR) was achieved when combining heifer TAI and cow TAI without ED during the reinsemination period, whereas the lowest NR was obtained when combining heifer synch-ED with cow ED.

Abstract
Alpine grassland is one of the most critical grassland types in the world, and it is vulnerable and sensitive to external disturbances. The development and outbreak of locust might result in the irreversible degradation. However, most locust studies have been on the tropical, temperate, and desert areas. Our knowledge of inhabitable areas in alpine grassland still needs to be explored. This study was carried out in the alpine grassland in the Qilian Mountain National Park. Environmental factors (remote sensing vegetation index, meteorology, soil, topography, and grassland types) and their impact on locust density were investigated. Finally, the inhabitable areas of locust in the study area were mapped. The results showed that: (1) six out of 26 factors [including precipitation, solar radiation (average and maximum value), normalized vegetation index (NDVI), soil, and temperature] had great influence on locust density, with a relative contribution (RC) more than 10%. (2) Among all locust density estimation models, those based on average and maximum solar radiation, maximum precipitation, maximum NDVI, average temperature, and clay content in deep soil performed better than others, with R ranging from 0.58 to 0.73 and root mean square error ranging from 21.70 to 25.82 head/m2. (3) The areas most suited for locust growth, development, and frequent outbreak were found in the south of Tianjun County, middle and northwest of Qilian County (account for 27% of the study area), while the inhabitability was weak in south of Gangcha County, northwest of Tianjun County, and most of Delingha City. Thus our study clarified the distribution region and occurrence variation of the locust and provided a scientific basis for locust prevention and control in alpine grassland in the Qilian Mountain National Park.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patients with tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) often suffer from irreversible height loss due to vertebral deformity. However, the prevalence of vertebral deformity in TIO patients varies among limited studies. In addition, the distribution and type of vertebral deformity, as well as its risk factors, remain unknown. This study aimed to identify the prevalence, distribution, type and risk factors for vertebral deformity in a large cohort of TIO patients. METHODS A total of 164 TIO patients were enrolled in this retrospective study. Deformity in vertebrae T4-L4 by lateral thoracolumbar spine radiographs was evaluated according to the semiquantitative method of Genant. Bone microstructure was evaluated by trabecular bone score (TBS) and high-resolution peripheral QCT (HR-pQCT). RESULTS Ninety-nine (99/164, 60.4%) patients had 517 deformed vertebrae with a bimodal pattern of distribution (T7-9 and T11-L1), and biconcave deformity was the most common type (267/517, 51.6%). Compared with patients without vertebral deformity, those with vertebral deformity had a higher male/female ratio, longer disease duration, more height loss, lower serum phosphate, higher bone turnover markers, lower TBS, lower areal bone mineral density (aBMD), lower peripheral volumetric BMD (vBMD) and worse microstructure. Lower trabecular vBMD and worse trabecular microstructure in the peripheral bone and lower spine TBS were associated with an increased risk of vertebral deformity independently of aBMD. After adjusting for the number of deformed vertebrae, we found little difference in clinical indexes among the patients with different types of vertebral deformity. However, we found significant correlations of clinical indexes with the number of deformed vertebrae and the spinal deformity index. CONCLUSION We reported a high prevalence of vertebral deformity in the largest cohort of TIO patients and described the vertebral deformity in detail for the first time. Risk factors for vertebral deformity included male sex, long disease duration, height loss, abnormal biochemical indexes and bone impairment. Clinical manifestation, biochemical indexes and bone impairment were correlated with the number of deformed vertebrae and degree of deformity, but not the type of deformity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Identify independent and novel risk factors for late-preterm (28-36 weeks) and term (≥37 weeks) stillbirth and explore development of a risk-prediction model. DESIGN Secondary analysis of an Individual Participant Data (IPD) meta-analysis investigating modifiable stillbirth risk factors. SETTING An IPD database from five case-control studies in New Zealand, Australia, the UK and an international online study. POPULATION Women with late-stillbirth (cases, n = 851), and ongoing singleton pregnancies from 28 weeks' gestation (controls, n = 2257). METHODS Established and novel risk factors for late-preterm and term stillbirth underwent univariable and multivariable logistic regression modelling with multiple sensitivity analyses. Variables included maternal age, body mass index (BMI), parity, mental health, cigarette smoking, second-hand smoking, antenatal-care utilisation, and detailed fetal movement and sleep variables. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Independent risk factors with adjusted odds ratios (aOR) for late-preterm and term stillbirth. RESULTS After model building, 575 late-stillbirth cases and 1541 controls from three contributing case-control studies were included. Risk factor estimates from separate multivariable models of late-preterm and term stillbirth were compared. As these were similar, the final model combined all late-stillbirths. The single multivariable model confirmed established demographic risk factors, but additionally showed that fetal movement changes had both increased (decreased frequency) and reduced (hiccoughs, increasing strength, frequency or vigorous fetal movements) aOR of stillbirth. Poor antenatal-care utilisation increased risk while more-than-adequate care was protective. The area-under-the-curve was 0.84 (95% CI 0.82-0.86). CONCLUSIONS Similarities in risk factors for late-preterm and term stillbirth suggest the same approach for risk-assessment can be applied. Detailed fetal movement assessment and inclusion of antenatal-care utilisation could be valuable in late-stillbirth risk assessment.

Abstract
Rapid, sensitive and specific detection tools are critical for the prevention and control of infectious diseases. The in vitro nucleic acid amplification assays, including polymerase chain reaction and isothermal amplification technology, have been widely used for the detection of pathogens. Recently, nucleic acid detection-based on clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated proteins (Cas) have been developed, which are rapid, highly sensitive, highly specific, and portable. This review describes the classification and principle of CRISPR/Cas systems and their applications in pathogen detection, and discusses the prospects of CRISPR/Cas systems.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the multi-vendor multi-site reproducibility of two-dimensional (2D) multi-echo spin-echo (MESE) T2 mapping (product sequences); and to evaluate the longitudinal reproducibility of three-dimensional (3D) magnetization-prepared angle-modulated partitioned k-space spoiled gradient echo snapshots (MAPSS) T1ρ and T2 mapping (research sequences), and 2D MESE T2 mapping, separated by 6 months, in a multi-vendor multi-site setting. METHODS Phantoms and volunteers (n = 5 from each site, n = 20 in total) were scanned on four 3 T magnetic resonance (MR) systems from four sites and three vendors (Siemens, General Electric, and Phillips). Two traveling volunteers (3 knees) scanned at all 4 sites at baseline and 6-month follow-up. Data was transferred to one site for centralized processing. Coefficients of variation (CVs) were calculated to evaluate reproducibility. RESULTS For baseline 2D MESE T2 measures, average CV were 0.37-2.45% (intra-site) and 5.96% (inter-site) for phantoms, and 3.15-8.49% (intra-site) and 14.16% (inter-site) for volunteers. For longitudinal phantom data, intra-site CVs were 1.42-3.48% for 3D MAPSS T1ρ, 1.77-3.56% for 3D MAPSS T2, and 1.02-2.54% for 2D MESE T2. For the longitudinal volunteer data, the intra-site CVs were 2.60-4.86% for 3D MAPSS T1ρ, 3.33-7.25% for 3D MAPSS T2, and 3.11-8.77% for 2D MESE T2. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated excellent intra-site reproducibility of 2D MESE T2 imaging, while its inter-site variation was slightly higher than 3D MAPSS T2 imaging (10.06% as previously reported). This study also showed excellent reproducibility of longitudinal T1ρ and T2 cartilage quantification, in a multi-vendor multi-site setting for both product 2D MESE T2 and 3D MAPSS T1p/T2 research sequences.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate peritumour radiomics in predicting benign and malignant pulmonary nodules with halo sign. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this retrospective study, 305 pulmonary nodules with halo sign (benign, 120; adenocarcinoma, 185) were collected. Manual segmentation was used to mark the gross tumour volume (GTV) and the peritumour volume (PTV) was established by uniform dilation (1 cm) of the tumour area in three dimensions. The GTV and PTV radiomic features were combined to produce the gross tumour and peritumour volume (GPTV). The minimum-redundancy maximum-relevance (mRMR) feature ranking method and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm were used to eliminate redundant radiomic features. Predictive models combined with clinical features and radiomic signatures were established. Multivarible logistic regression analysis was used to establish the combined model and develop a nomogram. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to evaluate the predictive performance of the model. RESULTS In the testing cohort, the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the GTV, PTV, and GPTV radiomic models was 0.701 (95% CI: 0.589-0.814), 0.674 (95% CI: 0.557-0.791) and 0.755 (95% CI: 0.643-0.867), respectively. The AUC of the nomogram model based on clinical and GPTV radiomic signatures was 0.804 (95% CI: 0.707-0.901). CONCLUSION The nomogram model based on clinical and GPTV radiomic signatures can better predict benign and malignant pulmonary nodules with halo signs, demonstrating that the model has potential as a convenient and effective auxiliary diagnostic tool for radiologists.

METHODS This was a multicenter and randomized clinical trial conducted in Jiangsu, China, from April 2021 to April 2022. Intervention lasted for 12 weeks and 104 older adults with functional declines were enrolled. All participants were randomly assigned to a control (usual care plus health education) or exercise group (usual care plus health education plus exercise). Primary outcomes were the change score of Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) and activities of daily living (ADL). The secondary outcomes included instrumental activities of daily living, Tinetti scores, Frailty score, short-form Mini Nutritional Assessment, Mini-Mental State Examination, Geriatric Depression Scale-15, the 12-item Short Form Survey, 4-meter gait speed test, 6-min walking distance, grip strength, and body composition analysis. RESULTS Among the participants, the average age was 85 (82, 88) years. After 12 weeks of follow-up, the exercise group showed a significant improvement in SPPB, with a change of 2 points (95% confidence interval [0, 3.5], P<0.001) compared to control. In contrast, SPPB remained stable in the control group. Compared to the control group, ADL improved in the exercise group, as did instrumental activities of daily living, Tinetti, Frailty, Short Form Survey, 4-meter gait speed test, and 6-min walking distance. Although there was no significant difference between groups in body composition analysis after post-intervention, the exercise group still improved in soft lean mass (P=0.002), fat-free mass (P=0.002), skeletal muscle mass index (P<0.001), fat-free mass index (P=0.004), appendicular skeletal muscle mass (P<0.001), and leg muscle mass (P<0.001), while the control group had no significant increase. No difference was observed in adverse events during trial period. CONCLUSIONS The multicomponent exercise intervention following vivifrail recommendations is an effective method for older adults with functional decline and can reverse the functional decline and improve gait, balance, and muscle strength. Additionally, the 12-week multicomponent exercise method provides guidance for Chinese medical professionals working in the field of geriatrics and is a promising method to improve physical function in the general population.

Abstract
A 36-year-old woman was admitted to the Peking Union Medical College Hospital with a history of fractures for 2 years, limb weakness for 1 year, and ostealgia for 2 months. The patient's examination identified iron deficiency anemia, significantly decreased serum calcium and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels, and increased alkaline phosphatase and parathyroid hormone levels. Imaging showed several typical signs of osteomalacia. Considering the history of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery, the diagnosis was considered to be osteomalacia caused by a postoperative nutritional absorption disorder. The patient was supplemented with calcitriol, calcium, and vitamin D and gradually returned to normal physical activity. The bone metabolism indicators and bone density were significantly improved.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the feasibility of predicting TP53 mutation risk by immunohistochemical staining (IHC) pattern of P53 in Chinese diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and its correlation with a prognostic difference. Methods: Between January 2021 and December 2021, 51 DLBCL cases at Beijing Boren Hospital were gathered. These cases had both IHC and next-generation sequencing (NGS) results. IHC classified the P53 protein expression pattern into a loss (<1% ) , diffuse (>80% ) , and heterogeneous (1% -80% ) . The sensitivity and specificity of the predicting TP53 mutation by IHC were assessed by comparing the results of the NGS, and the TP53 high mutation risk group included both loss and diffuse expression of P53. From June 2016 to September 2019, Peking University Cancer Hospital collected 131 DLBCL cases with thorough clinicopathological and follow-up data. From their tumor blocks, tissue microarray blocks were made for IHC evaluation of P53 expression pattern, and prognosis effect of P53 studies. Results: Among 51 cases with both IHC and NGS results, 23 cases were classified as TP53 high mutation risk (7 cases loss and 16 cases diffuse) , 22/23 cases were proved with mutated TP53 by NGS. Only 1 of the 28 cases classified as TP53 low mutation risk was proved with mutated TP53 by NGS. IHC had a sensitivity and specificity of 95.7% and 96.4% for predicting TP53 mutation. NGS identified a total of 26 TP53 mutations with a mutation frequency of 61.57% (13.41% -86.25% ) . In the diffuse group, 16 missense mutations and 2 splice mutations were detected; 6 truncating mutations and 1 splice mutation were detected in the loss group; 1 truncating mutation was detected in the heterogeneous group. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that TP53 cases with high mutation risk have impartial adverse significance for the 131 patients included in survival analysis (HR=2.612, 95% CI 1.145-5.956, P=0.022) . Conclusion: IHC of P53 exhibiting loss (<1% ) or diffuse (>80% ) pattern indicated TP53 high mutation risk, IHC can predict TP53 mutation with high specificity and sensitivity. TP53 high mutation risk is an independent predictor for adverse survival.

Abstract
PURPOSE Pseudohypoxia type (PHT) pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) are more likely to metastasize and have a poor prognosis. However, application of genetic tests has many restrictions. The study aims to establish a novel nomogram for predicting the risk of PHT PPGLs. METHODS This retrospective cross-sectional study included 242 patients with pathology confirmed PPGLs in one tertiary care center in China in 2010-2021. Clinical and biochemical characteristics were collected. Next-generation sequencing was performed in all PPGLs patients for detection of mutation. Univariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to select risk factors for constructing the nomogram. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the discrimination of the nomogram and the calibration curve was performed. RESULTS Four variables including age ≤ 35 years, hypertension, 24 h urinary output of urinary vanillylmandelic acid (VMA) ≥ 100 umol/24 h and urinary 17-ketosteroide (17 KS) ≤ 50 umol/24 h levels were independently associated with PHT PPGLs in the logistic regression analysis and were included in the nomogram. The nomogram showed a good discrimination performance with AUC of 0.829 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.767-0.891] in the training set and 0.797 (95%CI, 0.659-0.935) in the validation set, respectively. The calibration curve showed a bias-corrected AUC of 0.809 vs. 0.795, and a Hosmer-Lemeshow (H-L) test yielded a p value of 0.801 vs. 0.885, indicating the nomogram's good ability to distinguish PHT PPGLs from non-PHT PPGLs. CONCLUSION Our study has proposed a novel nomogram for individualized prediction of the PHT PPGLs, which may make contributions to guide the patients' personalized management, follow-up, and treatment.

Abstract
Objective: The susceptibility of tinnitus rats with low estrogen level induced by sodium salicylate and the changes of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) in serum were observed to investigate the relationship between tinnitus occurrence and estrogen level. Methods: Forty-two healthy female Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group(n=6), normal group(n=6), sham operation group(n=6) and ovariectomized group(n=24). Control group was intraperitoneally injected with normal saline 200 mg/kg for 14 consecutive days. Normal group, sham operation group and ovariectomized group were intraperitoneally injected with sodium salicylate 200 mg/kg for 14 consecutive days. Before and after sodium salicylate induction, the tinnitus behavior of rats in each group was detected by prepulse inhibition (PPI) and gap pre-pulse inhibition of the acoustic startle (GPIAS) test. Before and after sodium salicylate induction, blood samples were collected from eyeballs of rats in each group, and serum levels of estradiol and TNF-α were detected by ELISA. SPSS 25.0 software was used to analyze the data. Results: (1) Following 14 days of sodium salicylate intervention, there was no significant difference in PPI inhibition rate between groups or within groups(all P>0.05). (2)There was no significant difference in the inhibition rate of GPIAS in the four groups before sodium salicylate injection(F=0.217, P>0.05). With sodium salicylate injected for 14 days, the inhibition rate of GPIAS in ovariectomized group (30.88%±15.40%) was significantly lower than that in the other three groups (44.11%±21.06%, 38.27%±10.92%, 51.59%±11.34%), and the difference was statistically significant(F=3.533, P<0.05). The inhibition rate of GPIAS in ovariectomized group with sodium salicylate injected for 14 days was significantly lower than that before injection, and the difference was statistically significant(t=2.977, P<0.05).There was no significant difference in GPIAS inhibition rate between the other three groups before and after sodium salicylate injection(P>0.05). (3)The level of TNF-α in ovariectomized rats was significantly higher than that in the other three groups, the difference was statistically significant(all P<0.05). With sodium salicylate injection for 14 days, TNF-α level in the ovariectomized group increased more significantly than that in the other three groups, the difference was statistically significant(F=8.045, P<0.05). TNF-α levels increased following salicylate injection in normal group, sham operation group and ovariectomized group, and the differences were statistically significant(t value was -4.843, -4.932 and -5.965 respectively, each P<0.05). There was no significant difference in TNF-α levels before and after normal saline injection in control group(all P>0.05). Conclusion: Low estrogen levels increase susceptibility to sodium salicylate-induced tinnitus. Decreased estrogen levels may increase susceptibility to tinnitus through the increased expression of pro-inflammatory factor TNF-α.
