Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
As a common but modifiable chronic condition, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been identified as the top secondary cause of many other diseases including cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes. Diagnosing and managing OSA provides neurological, cardiovascular and metabolic benefits, however real-world studies indicate disconnections between evidence and outcomes. Using an engagement approach and qualitative design, this project aims to better understand care and research gaps in OSA in a community healthcare setting.
Methods: Methods
Patient and family representatives were identified and recruited through OSA support meetings hosted by MultiCare Sleep Medicine Centers, to form a board of 12, with three key patient advocates. Six meetings, each facilitated by one or two members of the board, were held to encourage focus group discussion and accommodate interactive conversations on the topic. Discussions were audio recorded and edited to exclude patients’ identifiable information, then transcribed. Manual open coding was completed by two coders for each transcription to develop a codebook, followed by auto-coding and inductive content analysis using Nvivo 11.
Results
All enrolled patients had diagnosed moderate-to-severe OSA and were prescribed with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy. Two participants were African American and one was multiethnic. Patients’ age ranged from early 30s to 80s. Seven main themes were identified: OSA diagnostic issues; treatment experiences and options; comorbidities; patient community and support needs; long-term management challenges beyond “compliance”; knowledge of OSA, CPAP and care; and patient-driven research. The first few weeks after CPAP initiation appeared to be a critical time window that impacted patients’ adaptation and use.
Conclusion
Our study revealed barriers and facilitators in OSA diagnosis and treatment. Results showed highly prevalent chronic co-morbidities and the needs to care for patients in the comorbid scenario. It was highlighted that a paradigm of patient-centered care and research is lacking and warranted. Participants also called for better coordination between sleep medicine, primary care, other specialists, durable device suppliers and insurance. Key research efforts are expected to focus on the first 30-day post CPAP dispense to improve compliance.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the relationships between serum lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) and KIM-based white matter lesion (WML) and carotid atherosclerotic plaque. Methods: From November 2018 to July 2019, 155 patients admitted to the Department of Neurology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University were enrolled, with 125 cases of brain MRI manifestations of white matter lesions allocated to WML group and 30 cases of normal MRI in control group (NC group). According to KIM classification, WML patients were further divided into juxtaventricular white matter lesion (JVWML) group (n=30), periventricular white matter lesion (PVWML) group (n=33), juxtacortical white matter lesion (JCWML) group (n=30) and deep white matter lesion (DWML) group (n=32). Clinical Data of vascular risk factors in all subjects was collected and reviewed. Serum Lp-PLA2 content was determined by double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Carotid atherosclerosis plaques were detected by carotid artery ultrasonography and divided into stable and vulnerable plaques, and thus total score of each plaque was subsequently calculated according to the Crouse method. Results: The Lp-PLA2 ((117±37) ng/ml vs (95±30) ng/ml), stable Crouse plaque integral (CPI) (0 (0,2.5) vs 0) and unstable CPI (0 (0,3.4) vs 0) in the WML group were significantly higher than those in the NC group (all P<0.05). Lp-PLA2 ((138±41) ng/ml) and unstable CPI (1.5(0,3.8)) in the PVWML group were significantly higher than those in the NC group (all P<0.05). Lp-PLA2 levels in the PVWML group were significantly higher than those in the JVWML group ((100±28) ng/ml) and JCWML group ((101±27) ng/ml) (all P<0.05). Correlation analysis revealed that blood glucose (r=0.600, P=0.000), triglyceride (TG) (r=0.371, P=0.034), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (r=0.367, P=0.036) and Lp-PLA2 (r=0.567, P=0.001) were positively correlated with unstable CPI in PVWML group, while it is negatively correlated with HDL-C (r=-0.368, P=0.035). Multivariate linear regression of all relevant factors and unstable CPI in the PVWML group showed that blood glucose (b=0.463, P<0.01) and Lp-PLA2 (b=0.347, P<0.05) were still positively correlated with unstable CPI. Conclusions: Serum Lp-PLA2 is an indicator of atherosclerosis, which is associated with carotid instability plaques in periventricular WML, suggesting that inflammatory mechanism plays an important role in the development of ischemic white matter lesions.

Abstract
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(ICC) is the second most common primary liver cancer. The incidence of ICC has been significantly increased globally in recent years. The concealed onset of ICC usually results in late disease diagnosis. Liver resection is currently the only well-established treatment for ICC that may cure the disease, however, long-term survival rate is still unsatisfied due to the low resection rate and high recurrence rate. Local therapy combined with systemic chemotherapy is the main treatment for advanced or unresectable ICC, but the outcomes are still poor. With the in-depth understanding of the molecular mechanism of ICC and development of next-generation sequencing technology, multiple abnormal signaling pathways (RAS/MAPK, MET, EGFR) and gene mutations (FGFR2, IDH1/2) have been identified as potential therapeutic targets. Although there is still no approved targeted drugs for ICC, more than 100 clinical trials testing targeted therapy alone or in combination with chemotherapy are ongoing, among which some have shown promising application prospects. Molecular typing and personalized targeted therapy are important ways to improve the overall outcomes of ICC. This review summarized the recent advances in the targeted therapies for patients with ICC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There are limited data on the association between uric acid (UA) and symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage (SICH) in patients who have undergone mechanical thrombectomy [endovascular treatment (EVT)]. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the role of serum UA level in SICH after EVT in a real-world practice. METHODS Patients were selected from the Endovascular Treatment for Acute Anterior Circulation Ischemic Stroke (ACTUAL) registry. SICH was identified using the Heidelberg Bleeding Classification. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the relationship between serum UA and SICH. RESULTS Among 611 enrolled patients, 90 (14.7%) were diagnosed with SICH within 72 h after EVT. Patients with SICH had a significantly higher level of serum UA (median, 341.0 vs. 302.0 μmol/L; P = 0.003) than those without SICH. Univariate logistic regression analysis indicated that patients with UA levels in the fourth quartile, compared with the first quartile, were more likely to have SICH (odds ratio, 2.846; 95% confidence intervals, 1.429-6.003; P = 0.003). The association remained significant after multivariable adjustment for potential confounders. Furthermore, the multiple-adjusted spline regression model showed an inverted U-shaped association between UA and SICH (P = 0.047 for non-linearity). CONCLUSION Our study indicated that increased serum UA level was independently associated with SICH after EVT in acute ischaemic stroke.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the clinical phenotype, immunological features, pathogenesis and gene variation of a case with A20 haploinsufficiency (HA20). Methods: A patient diagnosed with tumor necrosis factor α-induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3) mutated HA20 was admitted into Shenzhen Children's Hospital in May,2019.The clinical data was analyzed. Flow cytometry was used to detect the patient's peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets, and also, the percentage of follicular helper T cell (TFH) cells in the patient and thirteen healthy controls. After the construction of empty vector, wild-type and mutant plasmid vectors, a wild-type or mutant overexpression system of the TNFAIP3 gene was established in 293T cells and Hela cells. Then, the expression level of A20 in 293T cells and the expression of inhibitor K binding α (IKBα) in green fluorescent protein (GFP)+Hela cells before and after tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) stimulation were measured, to verify the pathogenicity of this variation. Results: A 5 years and 11 months old boy, presented with recurrent oral ulcer, abdominal pain, joint swelling and arthralgia. Oral ulcer, chronic skin rashes, knee joint swelling were observed. The levels of inflammatory markers were increased. Colonoscopy showed congestion of mucosa and multiple ulcers in terminal ileum and ileocecus. The absolute number of naive B cells was 124×10(6) cells/L (reference range 147×10(6)-431×10(6) cells/L), accounting for 0.430 of the total B cells (reference range 0.484-0.758). Compared to healthy controls (0.016-0.071), the percentage of TFH cells in CD4(+)T cells was much lower (0.008).A heterozygous mutation of TNFAIP3 gene (c.909_913 del, p.L303fs) was identified by genetic analysis. In vitro study showed that truncated A20 protein was expressed in TNFAIP3 mutant overexpressed 293T cells, which verified the pathogenicity of this variation. Besides, after TNF-α stimulation, the degradation rate of IkBα protein in mutant overexpressed Hela cells (35%) was between the other two groups (15% in the wild-type group and 57% in the non-loaded group). Conclusions: This case with HA20 due to a de novo TNFAIP3 gene mutation presents with early onset Behcet-like autoinflammatory syndrome. This variation leads to expression of truncated A20 protein, enhanced degradation of IkBα, and further activation of nuclear factor κB signaling pathway.

Abstract
Dexmedetomidine (DMED), an alpha-2 adrenoreceptor agonist, has been widely used in regional anesthesia procedures. However, the effect of DMED on local anesthetic cardiotoxicity has not been well delineated. This study consisted of two experiments. In experiment A, 42 Sprague–Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into 6 groups ( n = 7), each group was pretreated with DMED 0 μg kg−1 (D0 group), 1 μg kg−1 (D1 group), 3 μg kg−1 (D3 group), 6 μg kg−1 (D6 group), 12 μg kg−1 (D12 group), and 24 μg kg−1 (D24 group), administered through the right femoral vein. In experiment B, 20 SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n = 5), such as control group, DMED group, yohimbine (YOH) group, and DMED + YOH group. Each subgroup in experiment B was also pretreated similarly as in experiment A. After pretreatment of rats as described above (in experiments A and B), bupivacaine 2.5 mg kg−1 min−1 was infused to induce cardiac arrest. In experiment A, the lethal dose threshold of bupivacaine and plasma bupivacaine concentration in D3 and D6 group were higher than the other groups. In experiment B, there was no interaction between DMED and YOH in lethal dose threshold, arrhythmia time, plasma concentration of bupivacaine, and myocardial content of bupivacaine. DMED doses of 3–6 μg kg−1 elevated the lethal dose threshold of bupivacaine without involvement of the alpha-2 adrenoceptors.

Abstract
The process of e^{+}e^{-}→pp[over ¯] is studied at 22 center-of-mass energy points (sqrt[s]) from 2.00 to 3.08 GeV, exploiting 688.5 pb^{-1} of data collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider. The Born cross section (σ_{pp[over ¯]}) of e^{+}e^{-}→pp[over ¯] is measured with the energy-scan technique and it is found to be consistent with previously published data, but with much improved accuracy. In addition, the electromagnetic form-factor ratio (|G_{E}/G_{M}|) and the value of the effective (|G_{eff}|), electric (|G_{E}|), and magnetic (|G_{M}|) form factors are measured by studying the helicity angle of the proton at 16 center-of-mass energy points. |G_{E}/G_{M}| and |G_{M}| are determined with high accuracy, providing uncertainties comparable to data in the spacelike region, and |G_{E}| is measured for the first time. We reach unprecedented accuracy, and precision results in the timelike region provide information to improve our understanding of the proton inner structure and to test theoretical models which depend on nonperturbative quantum chromodynamics.

Abstract
Using a total of 11.0 fb^{-1} of e^{+}e^{-} collision data with center-of-mass energies between 4.009 and 4.6 GeV and collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, we measure fifteen exclusive cross sections and effective form factors for the process e^{+}e^{-}→Ξ^{-}Ξ[over ¯]^{+} by means of a single baryon-tag method. After performing a fit to the dressed cross section of e^{+}e^{-}→Ξ^{-}Ξ[over ¯]^{+}, no significant ψ(4230) or ψ(4260) resonance is observed in the Ξ^{-}Ξ[over ¯]^{+} final states, and upper limits at the 90% confidence level on Γ_{ee}B for the processes ψ(4230)/ψ(4260)→Ξ^{-}Ξ[over ¯]^{+} are determined. In addition, an excited Ξ baryon at 1820 MeV/c^{2} is observed with a statistical significance of 6.2-6.5σ by including the systematic uncertainty, and the mass and width are measured to be M=(1825.5±4.7±4.7) MeV/c^{2} and Γ=(17.0±15.0±7.9) MeV, which confirms the existence of the J^{P}=3/2^{-} state Ξ(1820).

Abstract
Follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) plays a central role in promoting follicle maturation through the follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)-mediated cAMP pathway in animals. The objectives of the present study were to clone the FSHR gene of yaks (Bos grunniens) and compare differences in FSHR mRNA expression in the reproductive axis between yaks and cattle. Hypothalamus, anterior pituitary, oviduct, ovary, and uterus tissue samples were collected from adult female yaks (n = 5) and cattle (n = 5) during the follicular phase. Using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), we found that the FSHR coding region of the yak is 2088 bp and encodes 695 amino acids. Its amino acid sequence showed 99.38%-72.22% similarity to the homologous genes of cattle, goats, sheep, cats, donkeys, horses, humans, chickens, monkeys, mice, rats, and wild boar. Real-time PCR analysis revealed that the FSHR gene was expressed in all tissues examined. Expression of the FSHR gene in the yak was higher in the uterus than other tissues (P < 0.05) but, in cattle, was higher in the ovary than other tissues (P < 0.05). The FSHR gene expression level in the cattle ovary was significantly higher than that in the yak ovary (P < 0.01). These results indicate that the FSHR gene is relatively conserved in the course of animal evolution. The variation in sequence and expression level of FSHR between the two species might be associated with the difference in their reproduction.

Abstract
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a leading form of malignancy arising from the head and neck region. Existing conventional therapies are toxic and induce resistance to advanced HNSCC, therefore, new highly efficient therapeutic agents are urgently needed. The present study investigated the anti-cancer efficacy of WZ37, a curcumin analog, in HNSCC cell lines, and defined the mechanism of this activity. Results indicated that WZ37 inhibited proliferation of several HNSCC cell types by G2/M cycle arrest, promoted expression of a pro-apoptotic protein profile, and induced ROS-dependent mitochondrial injury and ER stress. Pre-treatment with NAC, an ROS scavenger, lowered the anti-cancer activity of WZ37 in HEP-2 cells. Long-term treatment of WZ37 (24 h) decreased Akt/mTOR phosphorylation which was accompanied by increased expression of BAD and PTEN. Moreover, co-treatment of WZ37 with MK-2206 (Akt inhibitor) promoted cancer cell apoptosis. Our findings indicated that the anti-cancer potential of WZ37 was attributed to ROS-dependent cell cycle arrest, mitochondrial injury, and ER stress, leading to apoptosis. The basis of the HNSCC cell apoptosis was through a mechanism of inhibition of the oxidant-sensitive Akt/mTOR pathway. We conclude that WZ37 can be a promising anti-cancer agent for the treatment of HNSCC.

Abstract
By analyzing a 2.93 fb^{-1} data sample of e^{+}e^{-} collisions, recorded at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV with the BESIII detector operated at the BEPCII collider, we report the first observation of the semileptonic D^{+} transition into the axial-vector meson D^{+}→K[over ¯]_{1}(1270)^{0}e^{+}ν_{e} with a statistical significance greater than 10σ. Its decay branching fraction is determined to be B[D^{+}→K[over ¯]_{1}(1270)^{0}e^{+}ν_{e}]=(2.30±0.26_{-0.21}^{+0.18}±0.25)×10^{-3}, where the first and second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively, and the third originates from the input branching fraction of K[over ¯]_{1}(1270)^{0}→K^{-}π^{+}π^{0}.

Abstract
PURPOSE Oxaliplatin is one of the most commonly used chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of various cancers, including gastric cancer. It has, however, a narrow therapeutic index due to its toxicity and the occurrence of drug resistance. Therefore, there is a pressing need to develop novel therapies to potentiate the efficacy and reduce the toxicity of oxaliplatin. Piperlongumine (PL), an alkaloid isolated from Piper longum L., has recently been identified as a potent agent against cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. In the present study, we investigated whether PL can potentiate the antitumor effect of oxaliplatin in gastric cancer cells. METHODS Cellular apoptosis and ROS levels were analyzed by flow cytometry. Thioredoxin reductase 1 (TrxR1) activity in gastric cancer cells or tumor tissues was determined using an endpoint insulin reduction assay. Western blotting was used to analyze the expression levels of the indicated proteins. Nude mice xenograft models were used to test the effects of PL and oxaliplatin combinations on gastric cancer cell growth in vivo. RESULTS We found that PL significantly enhanced oxaliplatin-induced growth inhibition in both gastric and colon cancer cells. Moreover, we found that PL potentiated the antitumor effect of oxaliplatin by inhibiting TrxR1 activity. PL combined with oxaliplatin markedly suppressed the activity of TrxR1, resulting in the accumulation of ROS and, thereby, DNA damage induction and p38 and JNK signaling pathway activation. Pretreatment with antioxidant N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) significantly abrogated the combined treatment-induced ROS generation, DNA damage and apoptosis. Importantly, we found that activation of the p38 and JNK signaling pathways prompted by PL and oxaliplatin was also reversed by NAC pretreatment. In vivo, we found that PL combined with oxaliplatin significantly suppressed tumor growth in a gastric cancer xenograft model, and effectively reduced the activity of TrxR1 in tumor tissues. Remarkably, we found that PL attenuated body weight loss evoked by oxaliplatin treatment. CONCLUSIONS Our data support a synergistic effect of PL and oxaliplatin and suggest that application of its combination may be more effective for the treatment of gastric cancer than oxaliplatin alone.

Observation of the Leptonic Decay D^{+}→τ^{+}ν_{τ}. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2019; 123:211802. [PMID: 31809130 DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.123.211802] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
We report the first observation of D^{+}→τ^{+}ν_{τ} with a significance of 5.1σ. We measure B(D^{+}→τ^{+}ν_{τ})=(1.20±0.24_{stat}±0.12_{syst})×10^{-3}. Taking the world average B(D^{+}→μ^{+}ν_{μ})=(3.74±0.17)×10^{-4}, we obtain R_{τ/μ}=Γ(D^{+}→τ^{+}ν_{τ})/Γ(D^{+}→μ^{+}ν_{μ})=3.21±0.64_{stat}±0.43_{syst}., which is consistent with the standard model expectation of lepton flavor universality. Using external inputs, our results give values for the D^{+} decay constant f_{D^{+}} and the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element |V_{cd}| that are consistent with, but less precise than, other determinations.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the mid-term outcomes of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with left radial artery (RA) graft bypassed to right main coronary artery (RCA) of severe stenosis. Methods: Between September 2014 and April 2019, a total of consecutive 47 patients who had severe stenosis (≥90%) of RCA underwent total arterial revascularization, with left RA bypassed to RCA. There were 31 males and 16 females, with a mean age of (56.5±9.7) years old. The perioperative outcomes were observed and mid-term results were followed up. Results: A total of 46 left internal mammary artery (LIMA) grafts, 47 left radial artery (LRA), and 40 right RA grafts (RRA) were harvested with pedicles. LIMA was bypassed to LAD in 43 patients, RRA was to diagonal branches, ramus or oblique marginal in 37 cases, and LRA was to RCA. All grafts (except 3 composite Y or T grafts) were single. Mean graft number was 2-4 (2.7±0.9). There was one death due to cardiac tamponade. Three patients had postoperative atrial fibrillation, 1 had a forearm hematoma, 1 had acute renal insufficiency, and 2 had acute myocardial infarction. The mean tracheal intubation duration was 3.5-20.3 (8.3±4.7) hours, and the mean hospital stay was 6-13 (7.1±2.9) days. The average follow-up was 3-47 (23.3±7.5) months, with a follow-up rate of 86.96% (40/46). There were no major cardiovascular events during the follow-up. Three month after surgery, the mean left ventricular ejection fraction was significantly improved than that of pre-operation (60.0%±4.0% vs 42.4%±7.5%, P=0.003). Computed tomography angiography (CTA) examination showed that 58.7% (27/46) of patients had patent LRA after a mean follow-up duration of (19.5±7.3) months. Conclusion: CABG with LRA bypassed to RCA of severe stenosis proves to be safe and effective, with good mid-term outcomes.
