Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effects of Paraquat on autophagy level in SH-SY5Y cell and the mechanism of abnormal aggregation of α-synuclein. Methods: Human neuroblastoma cell (SH-SY5Y cell) was used as model of dopaminergic neurons in vitro. The cells were treated with different concentrations of PQ (0, 18.75, 37.5, 75, 150, 300, 600 μmol/L) for 24 hours, and induced by 150 μmol/L PQ for 0, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 96 hours to detect the relative survival rate of cells and determine dose/time-effect relationship. The cells were treated with concentration of 0, 75, 150, 300, 600 μmol/L PQ for 24 hours, and induced by 150 μmol/L PQ for different hours to detect intracellular LDH activity. The expression levels of autophagy-related proteins(LC3I, LC3II, Beclin1 , Vps34 and p62) and α-synuclein were detected by Western blot. The gene expression level of α-synuclein was assayed by Real-time quantitative PCR. The expression level of α-synuclein was also evaluated by immunofluorescence. The cells were pretreated with 100 nmol/L autophagy inducer rapamycin (RAPA) for 6 hours. The expression levels of autophagy-related proteins and α-synuclein were detected by Western blot. Results: CCK8 assay showed PQ induced cell survival rate decrease in a time and dose dependent manner; Compared with control group, the activity of LDH in the cell supernatant increased significantly after PQ exposure (P<0.05) ; Western blot analysis showed the ratio of autophagy-related protein LC3II/LC3I, Beclin1 and Vps34 protein expression were significantly lower after PQ treatment while the expression of p62 protein was higher (P<0.05) ; The protein and gene expression of α-synuclein were increased significantly after PQ treatment (P <0.05) ; Immunofluorescence showed the fluorescence intensity of α- synuclein in cells was significantly enhanced (P <0.05) . Compared with PQ group, the expression levels of autophagy-related proteins LC3II/LC3I and Beclin1 were significantly increased whlie α-synuclein protein level was decreased after RAPA induction (P<0.05) . Similarly, the IF result showed the fluorescence signal of α- synuclein significantly decreased after RAPA induction (P<0.05) . Conclusion: Paraquat induced autophagy dysfunction in SH-SY5Y cells, which leads to an abnormal aggregation of α-synuclein.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the prevalence of asthma among the elderly people in China and to analyze the clinical features, self-management and cognitive level of elderly asthma patients. Methods: According to the multi-stage random cluster sampling methods, a total of 164 215 subjects were visited by a questionnaire in the last epidemiology survey from eight provinces (Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, Liaoning, Henan, Shanxi, Jiangsu, Sichuan provinces) and seven regions (north, northeast, southern china, east, south, southwest and northwest) in China from February 2010 to August 2012. 2 034 were diagnosed as asthma. The elderly patients aged ≥65 years were selected from the 2 034 asthma patients. The clinical characteristics, comorbidities, the status of asthma control and self-management and insights of the disease in elderly asthma patients were analyzed. Results: Among the 2 034 asthma patients, 584 (28.7%) were elderly asthmatics aged ≥65 years old and 1 450 (71.3%) were<65 years old. In the elderly asthma group, Early-onset asthma accounted for 439 (75.2%) and 145 (24.8%) were late-onset. The common clinical manifestations of elderly asthma patients were: chest distress 395 (67.6%), wheezing 304 (52.1%), cough 298 (51.0%). Common comorbidities of elderly asthmatics were: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease 144 (24.7%), allergic rhinitis 122(20.9%), gastroesopheal reflux disease (GERD) 114(19.5%), allergic conjunctivitis 86 (14.7%), eczema 82 (14.0%), chronic bronchitis 76 (13.0%). The Asthma Control Test (ACT) scores of elderly asthmatics and non-elderly asthmatics were (18.5±3.2) and (21.7±3.4) respectively. There was a significant difference between the two groups (P=0.042). Of the elderly asthmatics, only 13 (2.2%) patients monitored daily using a peak flow meter. 93 (15.9%) patients aware that asthma was characterized by chronic airway inflammation. 64 (11.0%) asthmatics understood that the treatment goal. Conclusions: The clinical manifestations of elderly asthmatics are atypical, especially paroxysmal wheezing. Asthma in elderly people causes more comorbidities and mortality. The self-management and cognitive level of patients with asthma needs to be improved.

Abstract
Tuning a semiconductor to function as a fast proton conductor is an emerging strategy in the rapidly developing field of proton ceramic fuel cells (PCFCs). The key challenge for PCFC researchers is to formulate the proton-conducting electrolyte with conductivity above 0.1 siemens per centimeter at low temperatures (300 to 600°C). Here we present a methodology to design an enhanced proton conductor by means of a Na x CoO2/CeO2 semiconductor heterostructure, in which a field-induced metallic state at the interface accelerates proton transport. We developed a PCFC with an ionic conductivity of 0.30 siemens per centimeter and a power output of 1 watt per square centimeter at 520°C. Through our semiconductor heterostructure approach, our results provide insight into the proton transport mechanism, which may also improve ionic transport in other energy applications.

Abstract
There is a resurgent interest in developing intelligent open-domain dialog systems due to the availability of large amounts of conversational data and the recent progress on neural approaches to conversational AI [33]. Unlike traditional task-oriented bots, an open-domain dialog system aims to establish long-term connections with users by satisfying the human need for communication, affection, and social belonging. This article reviews the recent work on neural approaches that are devoted to addressing three challenges in developing such systems:
semantics
,
consistency
, and
interactiveness
.
Semantics
requires a dialog system to not only understand the content of the dialog but also identify users’ emotional and social needs during the conversation.
Consistency
requires the system to demonstrate a consistent personality to win users’ trust and gain their long-term confidence.
Interactiveness
refers to the system’s ability to generate interpersonal responses to achieve particular social goals such as entertainment and conforming. The studies we select to present in this survey are based on our unique views and are by no means complete. Nevertheless, we hope that the discussion will inspire new research in developing more intelligent open-domain dialog systems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is becoming more prevalent in aging societies worldwide, and the economic burden attributable to osteoporotic fractures is substantial. The medications presently available to treat osteoporosis have side effects. Acupuncture is widely used for treating osteoporotic postmenopausal women because it is non-invasive and has fewer side effects, but the powerful clinical evidence for its efficacy remains insufficient. Our study intends to explore the effect of overall adjustment acupuncture (OA) in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP). METHODS/DESIGN This study is a randomized, sham-controlled, patient- and assessor-blinded trial and aims to evaluate the effect of OA in women with PMOP. We will recruit 104 women aged 45-70 years with a diagnosis of PMOP. Participants will be randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio to the OA group and the sham acupuncture (SA) group. Both groups will receive real herbal medicine treatment as a basic treatment twice a day for 3 months, the OA group receives real acupuncture treatment and the SA group receives placebo acupuncture treatment (non-penetrating, sham skin-needle therapy, sham cupping). All patients will receive acupuncture treatment twice per week for 3 months. The primary outcome is bone mineral density (BMD) and the secondary outcomes include estradiol (E2), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), bone gla protein (BGP), bone alkaline phosphatase (BALP), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP), PPARγ, β-catenin, FoxO3a levels, visual analog pain scale score (VAS), Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome scores and quality of daily life score (QOL). Outcome measures will be collected at baseline, middle of the treatment (1.5 months), the end of treatment (3 months). The present protocol followed the SPIRIT guidelines and fulfills the SPIRIT Checklist. CONCLUSION This study will be conducted to compare the efficacy of OA versus SA. This trial should help to evaluate whether OA can effectively prevent and treat PMOP by improving the estrogen levels of postmenopausal women. The mechanism is to improve the imbalance of osteogenic differentiation and lipogenesis of bone-marrow cells under oxidative stress.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Postpartum depression (PPD) is a specifier of major depressive disorder (MDD) with peripartum onset. SAGE-217, an investigational, oral neuroactive steroid GABAA receptor positive allosteric modulator, demonstrated improvements in depressive and anxiety symptoms versus placebo in a Phase 3 trial in PPD (NCT02978326; ROBIN) and a pivotal trial in MDD (NCT03000530). In PPD and MDD, insomnia symptoms are key diagnostic features, comorbid sleep disorders are frequent, and insomnia is a common residual symptom. Here we conducted post-hoc analyses to assess insomnia symptoms in the ROBIN trial.
Methods
Women (n=151) ages 18-45, ≤6 months postpartum, with PPD (major depressive episode beginning in 3rd trimester or ≤4 weeks postpartum) and a Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D) total score ≥26, were randomized 1:1 to receive outpatient SAGE-217 30mg or placebo for two weeks, with 4 weeks follow-up. Change from baseline (CFB) in HAM-D score at Day 15 was the primary endpoint. Secondary endpoints included CFB in HAM-D at other time points and the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS). Post-hoc analyses assessed HAM-D insomnia subscale (HAM-D-Ins) and MADRS individual insomnia item (MADRS-Ins) scores. HAM-D and MADRS measures were evaluated using a mixed-effects model for repeated measures. Safety and tolerability were assessed by adverse event (AE) reporting.
Results
SAGE-217 demonstrated statistically significant Day 15 CFB versus placebo in HAM-D (primary endpoint: -17.8 vs. -13.6, p=0.0028), MADRS (-22.1 vs. -17.6, p=0.0180), and associated insomnia sub-scales/items (difference SAGE-217 vs. placebo; HAM-D-Ins: -1.003, p=0.0038; MADRS-Ins: -0.773, p=0.0116). Significant CFB in insomnia sub-scales/items favoring SAGE-217 were observed by Day 3 (HAM-D-Ins: -0.841, p=0.0142; MADRS-Ins: -0.710, p=0.017) and at Day 45 (HAM-D-Ins: -0.730, p=0.0207; MADRS-Ins: -0.636, p=0.0221). Most common (≥5%) AEs were somnolence, headache, dizziness, upper respiratory tract infection, diarrhea, and sedation.
Conclusion
SAGE-217 demonstrated improvements in depression symptoms, including insomnia symptoms, and was generally well tolerated.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics and risk factors of severe bronchial asthma in Chinese people over 14 years old. Methods: According to the multi-stage random cluster sampling methods, a total of 164 215 subjects were visited by a questionnaire in the epidemiology survey from eight provinces (Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, Liaoning, Henan, Shanxi, Jiangsu, Sichuan provinces) located in seven regions (north, northeast, east, central China, south, southwest and northwest) of China from February 2010 to August 2012. A total of 2 034 were diagnosed as asthma. The clinical characteristics and related risk factors of patients with severe asthma in China were analyzed. Results: Among all asthma patients, 560 were newly diagnosed, accounting for 27.5% (560/2 034) and the percentage of previously confirmed patients was 72.5% (1 474/2 034). A total of 145 were eligible for severe asthma, accounting for 9.8% (145/1 474) of previously confirmed asthmatics and 7.1% (145/2 034) of all asthmatics. 83.5% (121/145) severe asthmatics had at least one trigger factor. Correlation analysis showed that the risk factors of severe asthma were: smoking (OR=1.543, 95%CI: 1.250-1.814), obesity (OR=2.186, 95%CI: 1.972-2.354), petting (OR=2.135, 95%CI: 1.904-2.283), combined with allergic rhinitis (OR=3.456, 95%CI: 2.721-4.326), gastroesophageal reflux disease (OR=1.842, 95%CI: 1.682-2.140), bronchiectasis (OR=1.665, 95%CI: 1.347-1.912) or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (OR=1.312, 95%CI: 1.171-1.694). Conclusions: The most common comorbidities in severe asthmatics in China are allergic rhinitis and gastroesophageal reflux disease. The risk factors of severe asthma include obesity, allergic rhinitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bronchiectasis, smoking and petting.

Abstract
Better understanding of elastic wave propagation in polycrystals has interest for applications in seismology and nondestructive material characterization. In this study, a second-order wave propagation (SOA) model that considers forward multiple scattering events is developed for macroscopically isotropic polycrystals with equiaxed grains of arbitrary anisotropy (triclinic). It predicts scattering-induced wave attenuation and dispersion of phase velocity. The SOA model implements the generalized two-point correlation (TPC) function, which relates to the actual numeric TPC of simulated microstructure. The analytical Rayleigh and stochastic asymptotes for both attenuation and phase velocity are derived for triclinic symmetry grains, which elucidate the effects of the elastic scattering factors and the generalized TPC in different frequency regimes. Also, the computationally efficient far field approximation attenuation model is obtained for this case; it shows good agreement with the SOA model in all frequency ranges. To assess the analytical models, a three-dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) model for triclinic polycrystals is developed and implemented on simulated 3D triclinic polycrystalline aggregates. Quantitative agreement is observed between the analytical and the FE simulations for both the attenuation and phase velocity. Also, the quasi-static velocities obtained from the SOA and FE models are in excellent agreement with the static self-consistent velocity.

Abstract
Objective: To observe the role of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) TP53 gene mutation in lung cancer associated meningitis. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 35 patients diagnosed with lung cancer associated meningitis at the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from December 2015 to December 2018.All patients underwent the next-generation sequencing of CSF, and TP53 gene was found to be mutant or wild type, including 23 patients with TP53 mutant type and 12 patients with TP53 wild type. The clinical characteristics, CSF leukocyte, protein, glucose, chloride, Karnofsky performance (KPS) and overall survival were observed. Results: Headache, nausea and vomiting were the main clinical manifestations in both groups.There were no significant differences in CSF pressure, leukocyte, biochemical indicators and KPS between the two groups. The average time from diagnosis of lung cancer to diagnosis of lung cancer associated meningitis in the TP53 mutant group was significantly shorter than that in the TP53 wild type group (5.79 months vs 25.5 months).The median survival time of patients in the TP53 mutant group from lung cancer diagnosis to the observation endpoint was 19.77 months, while it was 88.73 months in the TP53 wild type group, and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.043). Conclusions: Mutation in the tumor suppressor gene TP53 can be detected in the CSF of patients with lung cancer associated meningitis. Patients with such mutation have earlier meningeal metastasis and shorter median survival time.

Abstract
Objective: To observe the effect of low concentration paraquat (PQ) on activation and phenotypic M1/M2 polarization of mouse microglia cells (BV2) . Methods: BV2 cells were used as model, and cultured in vitro were exposed to paraquat at designed concentrations of 0, 0.015, 0.03, 0.06, 0.12, 0.24, 0.48 μmol/L and 0.05 μmol/L 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP(+)) for 24 h, and cell viability was determined by CCK8 assay. After induced by 0, 0.015, 0.03, 0.06, 0.12 μmol/L PQ and 0.05 μmol/L MPP(+) for 24 h, the contents of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) , interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-1β in cell culture supernatant were determined by enzyme-linked inmunosorbent assay (ELISA) . Cell migration ability was determined by transwell. Immunofluorescence (IF) and flow cytometry were used to determine the phagocytic capacity of cells. Designed concentrations of 0, 0.03, 0.06, 0.12 μmol/L PQ and 0.05 μmol/L MPP(+) for 24 h, the protein expressions of M1 markers of BV2 (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, Nitric oxide synthase-iNOS, CD86) and M2 markers of BV2 (Arginase type-1 Arg-1 and Mannose recepteor-CD206) were determined by Western Blot after PQ expourse (0, 0.03, 0.06, 0.12 μmol/L) and 0.05 μmol/L MPP(+) induction. Results: Compared with 0 μmol/L PQ group, proliferation activity of BV2 cells was significantly increased by 0.03~0.12 μmol/L PQ while inhibited by 0.48 μmol/L PQ (P<0.05) . The cell proliferation activity of cells treated with 0.03 μmol/L PQ was significantly increased in 24 hours (P<0.05) . ELISA showed that TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β contents in the cell supernatant of the PQ group were significantly higher than those of 0 μmol/L PQ group, especially in 0.03 and 0.06 μmol/L PQ exposed group (P<0.05) . The results of IF and flow cytometry showed that phagocytic capacity of 0.015, 0.03 and 0.06 μmol/L PQ group was significantly enhanced compared with 0 μmol/L PQ group (P<0.05) . Transwell showed that the cell invasion ability of 0.03, 0.06, 0.12 μmol/L PQ was significantly higher than that of 0 μmol/L PQ group (P<0.05) . Western blot showed that compared with 0 μmol/L PQ group, the expression levels of M1 markers TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, iNOS and CD86 were significantly increased in 0.03 and 0.06 μmol/L PQ exposed group, while the expression levels of M2 markers Arg-1 and CD206 protein were decreased in 0.06 and 0.12 μmol/L PQ exposed group (P<0.05) . Conclusion: Low concentration PQ can abnormally activate BV2 cell, making the transformation of BV2 cell into pro-inflammatory M1 type and inhibiting its transformation into anti-inflammatory M2 type.
