Abstract
Obesity alters the composition, structure and function of adipose tissue, characterized by chronic inflammation, insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) are responsible for cell renewal, spontaneous repair and immunomodulation in adipose tissue. Increasing evidence highlights that ASCs are deficient in obesity, and the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. We have recently shown that obese ASCs have defective primary cilia, which are shortened and unable to properly respond to stimuli. Impaired cilia compromise ASC functions. This work suggests an intertwined connection of obesity, defective cilia and dysfunctional ASCs. We have here discussed the current data regarding defective cilia in various cell types in obesity. Based on these observations, we hypothesize that obesity, a systemic chronic metainflammation, could impair cilia in diverse ciliated cells, like pancreatic islet cells, stem cells and hypothalamic neurons, making these critical cells dysfunctional by shutting down their signal sensors and transducers. In this context, obesity may represent a secondary form of ciliopathy induced by obesity-related inflammation and metabolic dysfunction. Reactivation of ciliated cells might be an alternative strategy to combat obesity and its associated diseases.

Abstract
Obesity is associated with a variety of disorders including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus and cancer. Obesity changes the composition and structure of adipose tissue, linked to pro-inflammatory environment, endocrine/metabolic dysfunction, insulin resistance and oxidative stress. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) have multiple functions like cell renewal, spontaneous repair and homeostasis in adipose tissue. In this review article, we have summarized the recent data highlighting that ASCs in obesity are defective in various functionalities and properties including differentiation, angiogenesis, motility, multipotent state, metabolism and immunomodulation. Inflammatory milieu, hypoxia and abnormal metabolites in obese tissue are crucial for impairing the functions of ASCs. Further work is required to explore the precise molecular mechanisms underlying its alterations and impairments. Based on these data, we suggest that deregulated ASCs, possibly also other mesenchymal stem cells, are important in promoting the development of obesity. Restoration of ASCs/mesenchymal stem cells might be an additional strategy to combat obesity and its associated diseases.

Abstract
Diabetes is related to exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), inflammation in the body, and housing characters. However, associations of urinary monohydroxy-PAHs (OH-PAHs) or fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) with diabetes risk in relation to housing characters are unclear. In this study, 2645 individuals were drawn from the baseline survey of the Wuhan-Zhuhai Cohort Study. Associations of diabetes with urinary OH-PAHs or FeNO among cooking participants were estimated using logistic regression models. Among women with self-cooking meals, urinary OH-PAH levels were positively associated with diabetes risk (P < .05); the cooking women with high FeNO (≥25 ppb) had a 59% increase in the risk of diabetes (OR: 1.59, 95% CI: 1.06, 2.38), compared with those with low FeNO (<25 ppb). The cooking women with use of kitchen exhaust fans/hoods had a 52% decrease in the risk of diabetes (OR: 0.48, 95% CI: 0.27, 0.84), compared with those with nonuse of kitchen exhaust fans/hoods. The results indicated that the cooking women had an elevated risk of diabetes, which may be partly explained by an increase in the PAH body burden and higher inflammatory responses. Use of kitchen exhaust fan/hood can be associated with a lower risk of diabetes.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the bioequiavailability of paclitaxel for injection (albumin bound) (PAB) and reference listed drug abraxane in the patients with metastatic breast cancer, and to investigate the safety and efficacy in the extension treatments of PAB. Methods: This study was random, two cycles, self-crossover control study in the bioequiavailability stage. PAB was the investigational drug T and Abraxane was the reference drug R. Patients were randomly assigned to two cycles therapy of either R→T or T→R(260 mg/m(2)/21d). Non-PD patients entered in the extension treatments of the investigational drug PAB(260 mg/m(2)/21d) until the disease progression or the intolerance toxicity. Results: From Mar 1, 2016 to May 24, 2016, we enrolled 40 patients. The blood concentration-time curve and the parameters of pharmacokinetics indicated the two drugs were the bioequivalent drug products in the initial two cycles crossover-therapy.The incidence of adverse drug reactions were 89.7% vs 97.4% in investigational drug vs reference drug and grade 3/4 toxicities were 20.5% vs 21.1%(P=1.000). Patients received a median of 7 treatment cycles(range 1-23) and a median of 260mg/m(2) actual drug dose (range 220-260 mg/m(2)). Seven patients (17.5%) had dose reductions because of toxicities (260 mg/m(2) reduce to 220 mg/m(2)). Twenty-two patients (55%) discontinued treatment prematurely because of toxicity.Overall response rates (ORR) were 40% (95% CI, 24.8%-55.2%). For patients who received PAB as first-line vs non-first-line therapy, the ORR were 43.8% vs 25%. For patients who taxane-naïve vs taxane-pretreated, the ORR were 45.5% vs 37.9%. Median PFS was 49 weeks(95% CI, 30weeks-NA). Conclusion: The paclitaxel for injection (albumin bound) (PAB) and reference listed drug abraxane are the bioequivalent drug products.The toxicity and efficacy of the PAB are similar with abraxane.The more therapy chances for Chinese patients will come by the research and development of domestic drugs.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the characteristics and methods of different fixation methods and prevention of open knee joint fracture. Methods: The data of 86 cases of open knee joint fracture admitted from January 2002 to December 2015 in Department of Orthopaedics, Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu University were analyzed retrospectively.There were 65 males and 21 females aged of 38.6 years. There were 38 cases treated with trans articular external fixation alone, 48 cases were in the trans articular external fixation plus auxiliary limited internal fixation group. All the patients were treated according to the same three stages except for different fixation methods. Observation of external fixation and fracture fixation, fracture healing, wound healing and treatment, treatment and related factors of infection control and knee function recovery. χ(2) test was used to analyze data. Results: Eleven patients had primary wound healing, accounting for 12.8%. Seventy-five patients had two wounds healed, accounting for 87.2%. Only 38 cases of trans articular external fixator group had 31 cases of articular surface reduction, accounting for 81.6%; Five cases of trans articular external fixator assisted limited internal fixation group had 5 cases of poor reduction, accounting for 10.4%; There was significant difference between the two groups (χ(2)=44.132, P<0.05). Take a single cross joint external fixation group, a total of 23 cases of patients with infection, accounted for 60.5% of external fixation group; trans articular external fixation assisted limited internal fixation group there were 30 cases of patients with infection, accounting for the assistance of external fixator and limited internal fixation group 62.5%; There was significant difference between the two groups(χ(2)=0.035, P>0.05). Five cases of fracture nonunion cases of serious infection, patients voluntarily underwent amputation. The Lysholm Knee Scale: In the external fixation group, 23 cases were less than 50 points, accounting for 60.5%, 15 cases were more than 50 points, accounting for 39.5%, external fixation and limited internal fixation group 20 cases were less than 50 points, accounting for 41.7%, 28 cases were more than 50 points, accounting for 58.3%; There was significant difference between the two groups(χ(2)=1.279, P>0.05). Conclusions: Prevention and control of infection is a central link in the treatment of open fracture of the knee. Trans articular external fixator plus limited internal fixation is an important measure to treat open fracture of the knee-joint.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Plasma homocysteine concentrations have been reported to be associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with controversial findings. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between plasma homocysteine concentrations and T2DM. METHODS AND RESULTS A cross-sectional study including 19,085 eligible participants derived from the Dongfeng-Tongji cohort was conducted. Plasma homocysteine concentrations were measured by Abbott Architect i2000 Automatic analyzer and T2DM was defined according to American Diabetes Association criteria. Logistic regression model was used to explore the association between plasma homocysteine concentrations and T2DM. The prevalence of T2DM was 19.0% in the whole population (mean age 62.9 years), 21.8% in males, and 17.1% in females. In the multivariable logistic regression analyses, compared with those in the lowest quintile, the OR (95% CI) of T2DM was 1.05 (0.92-1.21), 0.99 (0.86-1.14), 0.90 (0.78-1.05), and 0.77 (0.66-0.90) for quintile 2 to quintile 5 of homocysteine concentrations after adjustment for potential confounders (P for trend < 0.0001). Homocysteine concentrations were associated with decreased T2DM prevalence risk (OR = 0.88 per SD increase of homocysteine concentration; 95% CI: 0.84-0.93). A significant interaction between homocysteine concentrations and drinking status on T2DM prevalence risk was observed (P for interaction = 0.03). The inverse association of plasma homocysteine concentrations with T2DM prevalence risk was observed in non-drinkers but not in current drinkers. CONCLUSION Plasma homocysteine concentrations were inversely correlated with T2DM among a middle-aged and elderly Chinese population.

Abstract
Experimental and epidemiological studies indicated that ambient air pollution was positively associated with diabetes. Few studies investigated the associations between household air pollution, for example, daily cooking duration and diabetes or prediabetes. We conducted a cross-sectional study to investigate the associations of daily cooking duration with the prevalence of diabetes and prediabetes among a middle-aged and elderly population. A total of 26 089 individuals (11 250 males and 14 839 females) derived from the Dongfeng-Tongji cohort study were included. Daily cooking duration was assessed by questionnaire. Diabetes and prediabetes were identified according to the criterion of American Diabetes Association. No significant association was observed between daily cooking duration and the prevalence risk of diabetes (odds ratio[OR] = 0.97, 95% confidence interval[CI]: [0.81-1.16], P for trend = .74); however, longer daily cooking duration was associated with higher prevalence risk of prediabetes (OR = 1.26, 95% CI: 1.07-1.47; P for trend = .003) and hyperglycemia (OR = 1.21, 95% CI: 1.05-1.41; P for trend = .005). Our study suggested that daily cooking duration was not associated with diabetes but with higher prevalence risk of prediabetes/hyperglycemia in a middle-aged and elderly Chinese population.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Underdeveloped countries reported 882,900 new cases of breast cancer and 324,000 deaths in 2012, likely to be a gross underestimation according to recent reports. Often, mammography screening is not available, primary care services are limited, and pathology and treatment services are available only in the regional hospitals. Because of the lack of access to diagnostic and treatment services, it is estimated that more than 90% of patients with breast cancer never present for medical treatment. To address this situation, an accurate, easy-to-perform diagnostic test appropriate for use in remote clinics is desperately needed. Johns Hopkins (JH) and Cepheid partnered to translate a robust Quantitative Multiplex Methylation-Specific PCR (QM-MSP) assay to an automated, cartridge-based system that provides quantitative measures of DNA methylation within hours of fine needle aspiration or core biopsy of image-detected suspicious lesions.
METHODS: With a goal of discriminating malignant from benign breast disease with high sensitivity and specificity, we evaluated 24 breast cancer-specific DNA methylation markers (selected through comprehensive methylome analysis) in 119 invasive ductal carcinomas and 186 benign breast tissues. QM-MSP was performed on sections of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues to quantify DNA methylation. The dynamic range and performance of quantitative methylation detection was tested using a subset of 9 genes in the cartridge-based system.
RESULTS: QM-MSP was performed in a Training set consisting of 93 tissues [n=43 IDC, n=50 benign lesions (25 usual ductal hyperplasia, UDH, and 25 papilloma)] from the US. We selected 9 DNA markers significantly (p<0.05) more methylated in malignant compared to benign lesions, which had low or no methylation. An independent Test set consisted of benign (n=26) and malignant (n=10) tissues (mostly Caucasian; JH Test Set). As a panel, the 9 markers were significantly more methylated in malignant than benign tissue (p<0.001), revealing a sensitivity of 90% and specificity of 92%, using a laboratory cutoff of 9.5 CMI units (900 unit scale) based on receiver operator characteristic statistics (ROC; p<0.0001, AUC=0.977). To determine if the markers characterized in the JH Test Set could perform as well in samples from a different geography, the panel was tested on 176 tissues from Wuhan, China (China Test Set). In this cohort (66 IDC and 110 benign tissues - 49 fibroadenoma, 19 benign cyst, 12 UDH, 30 papilloma), sensitivity was 89% and specificity was 89% for detection of breast cancer with ROC AUC=0.945. An advanced version of the cartridge with up to 12 methylated DNA markers is under development, thus far showing robust signals in cancer and low background in benign tissues. Current work at JH is focused on optimizing the technical performance of the cartridge.
CONCLUSIONS: We identified a panel of methylated DNA markers that discriminate malignant from benign breast lesions and built a prototype automated cartridge-based assay with promising sensitivity and specificity for breast cancer. Such an assay has the potential to aid in specimen triage in the pathology lab and provide fast, low cost and accurate diagnosis of breast cancer in LMIC settings.

Abstract
Objective: To study the effectiveness and safety in bronchoscopy under anesthesia with fentanyl combined with midazolam. Methods: We randomly allocated 132 patients( male 69, female 63, median age 62.9 years)requiring bronchoscopy in Beijing Xuanwu Hospital into 2 groups during January 2015 to December 2016.The trial group included 66 patients, receiving fentanyl combined with midazolam for anesthesia, while the control group of 66 patients receiving 2% lidocaine for topical anesthesia.In the trial group, there were 37 males and 29 females, with a median age of 63 years (range 26-82). In the control group, there were 36 males and 30 females, with a median age of 62.8 years (range 30-82). The pulse, mean arterial pressure, and the oxygen saturation of the patients were recorded before anesthesia and 5 minutes after deep anesthesia was reached. Changes of vital signs and adverse reactions during the bronchoscopy were also observed. Results: The fluctuation of pulse(12.3±2.3)/min, mean arterial pressure(5.9±2.2)mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) and oxygen saturation(4.4±1.3)%was lower in the trial group as compared to that of the control group, pulse(21.9±1.8)/min, mean arterial pressure(7.1±2.3)mmHg, oxygen saturation(13.3±4.2)%, P<0.001.Five minutes after anesthesia, the pulse(80.0±11.9)/min, the mean arterial pressure(95.0±9.7)mmHg and the oxygen saturation(90.0±5.67)%of patients in the trial group were lower than those in the control group [pulse(90.3±17.0)/min, mean arterial pressure(102.7±12.4)mmHg, oxygen saturation(96.5±3.0)%], the differences being statistically significant(P<0.001). The trial group also showed smaller fluctuation, better tolerance, and fewer adverse reaction sthan the control group. Conclusion: Fentanyl combined with midazolam is safe and effective in bronchoscopy with fewer adverse reactions, but its early effect on the vital signs should be monitored and stricter indications may be needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association of obesity and all-cause mortality in a sample of middle-aged and elderly population. DESIGN AND SETTING Information of participants was collected in the Dongfeng-Tongji study, a perspective cohort study of Chinese occupational population. The main outcome was risk of death after 8.5 years of follow-up. PARTICIPANTS AND MEASUREMENTS We examined the association of BMI, waist circumference (WC, and waist-height ratio (WHtR) with all-cause mortality in the Dongfeng-Tongji cohort study (n=26,143). Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for all-cause mortality. Area under the receiver operating characteristic curves and net reclassification improvement (NRI) were used to calculate the power of prediction models. RESULTS During a mean of 8.5 years of follow-up, 2,246 deaths were identified. There is a U-shaped association of BMI with all-cause mortality in the middle-aged and elderly Chinese population. Compared with individuals with normal BMI, underweight was positively (HR=2.16, 95% CI: 1.73, 2.69) while overweight (HR=0.75, 95% CI: 0.67, 0.84) and obesity (HR=0.67, 95% CI: 0.56, 0.79) were negatively associated with all-cause mortality after adjustment for potential confounders including WC. In contrast, WC (Q5 vs. Q1, HR=1.55, 95% CI: 1.29, 1.86) and WHtR (Q5 vs.Q1, HR=1.69, 95% CI: 1.40, 2.04) were positively associated with mortality after further adjustment for BMI (P trend < 0.001). Addition of both BMI and WC into the all-cause mortality predictive model significantly increased AUC (P =0.0002) and NRI (NRI = 2.57%, P = 0.0007). CONCLUSIONS BMI and WC/WHtR were independently associated with all-cause mortality after mutual adjustment. Combination of BMI and WC/WHtR improved the predictive ability of all-cause mortality risk in the middle-aged and elderly population.
