Abstract
Experimental demonstrations of silicon-on-insulator waveguide-based free-carrier effect modulators operating at 3.8 μm are presented. PIN diodes are used to inject carriers into the waveguides, and are configured to (a) use free-carrier electroabsorption to create a variable optical attenuator with 34 dB modulation depth and (b) use free-carrier electrorefraction with the PIN diodes acting as phase shifters in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer, achieving a VπLπ of 0.052 V·mm and a DC modulation depth of 22 dB. Modulation is demonstrated at data rates up to 125 Mbit/s.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the association between milk intake at breakfast and nutritional status of students attending the Nutrition Improvement Program for Rural Compulsory Education Students (NIPRCES) in 2016, and to provide basic data for improving the nutritional status of the poor rural pupils. Methods: Using the multi-stage stratified random cluster sampling method, 22 315 students from grade three to nine from primary and junior high schools were randomly selected from the 50 key counties under the monitor programs, in 22 provinces of NNIPRCS. Questionnaire was used. Among all the students, with equal number of genders, morning fasting height and weight were measured by trained investigators. Status of nutrition was classified as malnutrition, normal, overweight/obesity, by age-specific height and BMI. Multivariate linear and logistic regression methods were used to analyze the relationship between milk consumption and the status of nutrition of the students. Results: Only 31.4% of the students that were on the monitoring programs would drink milk at breakfast. Proportions of milk intake at breakfast were higher in students from the western regions, in lower grades and in girls (P<0.05). The proportions of malnutrition and overweight/obesity were 11.0% and 10.0% respectively. After controlling factors as gender, age, ethnicity, region of residency and types of parental employment, students who drank milk at breakfast showed an average height of 0.4 cm taller than those who did not drink milk (P=0.001). However, no significant relationships were noticed between milk intake at breakfast and weight, malnutrition or overweight/obesity. Conclusion: Milk intake at breakfast seemed associated with the height of the students under study, suggesting that this program can be promoted, especially in students from the poor rural areas.

Abstract
Endonuclease III is a DNA glycosylase previously known for its repair activity on oxidative pyrimidine damage. Uracil is a deamination product derived from cytosine. Uracil DNA N-glycosylase (UNG) and mismatch-specific uracil DNA glycosylase (MUG) are two known repair enzymes with enzymatic activity on uracil in E. coli. Here we report a G/U specific uracil DNA glycosylase activity in E. coli endonuclease III (endo III, Nth), which is comparable to MUG but significantly lower than its thymine glycol DNA glycosylase activity. The possibility that the novel activity is due to contamination is ruled out by expressing the wild type nth gene and an active site mutant in a uracil-repair-deficient genetic background. Consistent with the biochemical analysis, analyses of lac+ reversion and mutation frequencies in the presence of human AID induced cytosine deamination indicate the endo III can play a role in repair of cytosine deamination. In addition to E. coli, UDG activity is found in endo III homologs from other organisms. E. coli nucleoside diphosphate kinase (Ndk) was also tested for UDG activity because it was previously reported as an uracil repair enzyme. Under the assay conditions, very limited UDG activity was detected in single-stranded uracil-containing DNA from E. coli Ndk and no UDG activity was detected in human Ndk homologs. This study provides definitive clarification on uracil repair by endo III and reveals that endonuclease III is a G/U-specific UDG that can be viewed as a prototype for the human MBD4 uracil DNA glycosylase.

Abstract
Multicomponent reactions involving methyl perfluoroalk-2-ynoates initiated by N-heterocycles (quinoline, isoquinoline, and benzothiazole) in the presence of isatins and diaryl 1,2-diketones allowed efficient access to trifluoromethyl- or other perfluoroalkyl-substituted spiro-1,3-oxazine derivatives. This facile transformation is regioselective and proceeded smoothly through a 1,4-dipolar intermediate under mild conditions, affording the products in good to excellent yields.

Abstract
Asymmetric Mannich-type addition of 3,5-disubstituted-4-nitroisoxazoles to isatin-derived Boc-protected imines has been realized by using 0.01 equiv of amide phosphonium salt as a phase transfer catalyst. Our current methodology allows for the formation of 3-isoxazolylmethyl-substituted 3-aminooxindoles in excellent yields with good to excellent enantioselectivities. The practical value of this methodology was exemplified by a gram-scale synthesis of 5an, a key intermediate for the formal synthesis (+)-AG-041R.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics of chronic active Epstein-Barr virus associated enteritis (CAEAE) . Methods: The clinical data of 6 CAEAE patients in Peking Union Medical College Hospital were retrospectively analyzed from January 2010 to November 2017, including clinical manifestations, endoscopic, pathological features, medications and clinical outcome. Results: The male∶female ratio was 4∶2 and the average age was 34 years old. All patients did not have personal and family history of immunodeficiency. The common symptoms consisted of fever (6/6), abdominal pain (6/6), hematochezia (6/6) and diarrhea (5/6). The most frequently affected sites were colorectum (5/6), followed by small intestine (3/6). Further serologic tests revealed a high load of serum Epstein-Barr virus(EBV) DNA. The main manifestations under endoscopy were multifocal or diffuse irregular ulcers. There was inflammation in the ulcer bases and surrounding areas, where EBV-encoded small RNA (EBER) was positive by in situ hybridization (6/6). The common complications were massive hemorrhage (3/6) and intestinal perforation (2/6). None of treatment agents including glucocorticoid, ganciclovir, foscarnet sodium and cytotoxic drugs was effective. All patients died within 0.5 to 13 months after diagnosis. Conclusions: CAEAE in immunocompetent individuals is a rare disorder with poor prognosis. It is difficult to differentiate CAEAE from inflammatory bowel disease due to similar clinical and endoscopic manifestations.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the prognostic significance of central venous-arterial carbon dioxide tension to arterial-venous oxygen content ratio (Pcv-aCO(2)/Ca-cvO(2)) combined with lactate clearance rate (LCR) as early resuscitation goals of septic shock. Methods: One hundred and forty-five septic shock patients admitted to Second Department of Critical Care Medicine of Lanzhou University Second Hospital from March 2013 to May 2017 were enrolled in this study.All septic shock patients received an initial resuscitation therapy according to early goal-directed therapy.The arterial and central venous blood gases were measured simultaneously at baseline (T0) and 6 hours after resuscitation (T6). Pcv-aCO(2)/Ca-cvO(2) and LCR were calculated.Patients were classified into four groups according to Pcv-aCO(2)/Ca-cvO(2) and LCR at T6: group A, Pcv-aCO(2)/Ca-cvO(2)>1.8 and LCR<30%; group B, Pcv-aCO(2)/Ca-cvO(2)>1.8 and LCR≥30%; group C, Pcv-aCO(2)/Ca-cvO(2)≤1.8 and LCR<30%; group D, Pcv-aCO(2)/Ca-cvO(2)≤1.8 and LCR≥30%.General demographics, hemodynamic parameters, oxygen metabolism parameters, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE Ⅱ) scores, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) scores, length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay, and 28-day mortality rate were compared among the 4 groups.A Kaplan-Meier curve showed the survival probabilities at day 28 using a log-rank test for multiple comparisons.Parameters were introduced into a Cox's proportional hazards regression model to analyze the prediction of 28-day mortality.Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves were constructed to evaluate the ability of Pcv-aCO(2)/Ca-cvO(2), LCR, Pcv-aCO(2)/Ca-cvO(2) combined with LCR at T6 to predict 28-day mortality. Results: Compared with patients in group A, patients from group D had the lower APACHE Ⅱ and SOFA score at day 3 (t=-2.909, -3.630, both P<0.05), shorter ICU stay (t=-2.575, P=0.011), and lower mortality rate at day 28 (χ(2)=3.124, P=0.011). Survival curves up to day 28, illustrated by Kaplan-Meier method, showed that group A had the shortest median survival time (χ(2)=10.332, P=0.016), difference between group A and group D was statistically significant (χ(2)=8.304, P=0.004). The Cox regression analysis revealed that Pcv-aCO(2)/Ca-cvO(2) (RR=3.888, 95%CI: 2.443-6.189, P<0.001) and LCR (RR=0.073, 95%CI: 0.008-0.640, P=0.018) at T6 were independent predictors of 28-day mortality.The area under ROC curve for Pcv-aCO(2)/Ca-cvO(2) combined with LCR (0.919, 95%CI: 0.862-0.958) was significantly greater than whether Pcv-aCO(2)/Ca-cvO(2) (0.862, 95%CI: 0.795-0.914) or LCR (0.820, 95%CI: 0.748-0.879) alone (Z=2.032, 2.364, both P<0.05). Conclusion: Combination of Pcv-aCO(2)/Ca-cvO(2) and LCR is better than single parameter to predict the risk of adverse outcomes of septic shock patients, and may provide useful information for assessing the adequacy of resuscitation at early stage of septic shock.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effects of sex-detemining region Y box9 (SOX9) expression levels on the proliferation, migration and metastasis in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Methods: A total of 74 OSCC pathological specimens were collected from Shanghai OSCC Tissue and Biological Informations Bank, and clinicopathological information of these specimens were collected. Immunohistochemistry assay was used to examine the expression levels of SOX9 in OSCC and to analyze their relationship with clinicopathological features. Cell counting kit-8 assay and cloning formation was used to observe the relationship between the expression levels of SOX9 and the proliferation of OSCC. Transwell experiment and scratch test were used to detect the difference of the ability of OSCC in cell lines with different expression levels of SOX9. Results: The risk of lymph node metastasis in patients with high expression of SOX9 was significantly increased (P=0.010). In the Transwell experiment, the number of HN6 cells (671.0±57.4, P=0.000) migrated to the lower chamber more than that of CAL27 cells (172.0±13.9). In the scratch experiment, HN6 cells [0 h: (93.7±2.1) μm; 6 h: (56.7±2.5) μm; 12 h: (29.7±3.1) μm] migrated faster than CAL27 [0 h: (93.7±1.5) μm; 6 h: (78.0±2.0) μm; 12 h: (42.0±3.0) μm](P<0.05). The migration ability of the cell line (HN6) with high-expression of SOX9 was significantly higher than that in cell line (CAL27) with low-expression SOX9 (P<0.05). The expression levels of SOX9 in OSCC were no significant on cell proliferation (P>0.05). Conclusions: High expression of SOX9 can promote the migration and lymph node metastasis of OSCC. SOX9 is a candidate gene target for the diagnosis and intervention of lymph node metastasis in OSCC.

Abstract
The Src homology and collagen A (ShcA) adaptor protein that binds to tyrosine kinase receptors. ShcA plays a role in insulin signaling, stress resistance and energy metabolism. The 66-kDa Src homology 2 domain-containing protein (p66shc) belongs to the ShcA family and has been associated with reactive oxygen species (ROS); increased ROS is involved in the pathology of lupus nephritis (LN). However, whether ShcA can act as a biomarker for oxidative injury in LN is unknown. This study is aimed to investigate the ShcA expression in kidney tissues from patients presenting with LN and the association between ShcA expression and clinical parameters. Renal biopsy tissues were obtained from 62 LN, 20 primary membranous nephropathy (MN) and 10 other secondary MN patients. ShcA was measured by immunofluorescence. The expression of ShcA in the membranous lupus nephritis (class V) group showed a higher trend but there were no significant differences compared with pure mesangial disease (class II) and proliferative (Class III/IV) lupus nephritis. ShcA deposits were negative in primary and other secondary MN. ShcA might act as a new biomarker and a diagnostic tool to identify membranous lupus nephritis with other MN.

Methods: A total of 141 cancer patients treated with irinotecan were enrolled in this study. Peripheral venous blood was collected and genomic DNA was extracted. The genetic polymorphisms of UGT1A1*6, UGT1A1*28, UGT1A1*60 and UGT1A1*93 were analyzed by PCR and direct sequencing. The adverse reactions during chemotherapy were observed and recorded. The incidence of severe adverse reactions was compared among patients with different genotypes. Results: Among 141 patients, the cases with UGT1A1*6 GG, GA and AA genotypes were 71, 54 and 16, while those with UGT1A1*28 TA6/6, TA6/7 and TA7/7 genotypes were 105, 33 and 3, respectively. The cases with UGT1A1*60 AA, AC and CC genotypes were 52, 80 and 9, while those with UGT1A1*93 GG, GA and AA genotypes were 105, 32 and 4, respectively. The patients with grade 3-4 delayed diarrhea and neutropenia were 23 and 56, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that UGT1A1*6 and UGT1A1*60 genetic polymorphisms were independent factors influencing the occurrence of grade 3-4 delayed diarrhea. The risk of grade 3-4 delayed diarrhea in homozygous AA carriers of UGT1A1*6 increased 3.79 times compared with that in wild-type GG carriers (95%CI: 1.35-10.67). Moreover, the risk of grade 3-4 delayed diarrhea in homozygous CC carriers of UGT1A1*60 was 20.42 times compared with that in wild-type AA carriers (95%CI: 3.52-118.33). In addition, UGT1A1*28 genetic polymorphism was an independent factor of the occurrence of grade 3-4 neutropenia. The patients with homozygous TA7/7 carriers of UGT1A1*28 had an 1.61 times higher risk of grade 3-4 neutropenia compared with those with wild-type TA6/6 carriers (95%CI: 1.44-12.65). There was no correlation between UGT1A1*93 genetic polymorphism and severe adverse reactions caused by irinotecan. Conclusion: The cancer patients who carried UGT1A1*6, UGT1A1*28 and UGT1A1*60 gene polymorphisms have high risk of severe adverse events caused by irinotecan-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
Fluoroalkylated quinoxlines with various groups were efficiently synthesized via a one-pot tandem Michael addition/azidation/cycloamination process. Under the mild and metal-free conditions, a bis-imine intermediate (4a) was detected and isolated for the first time. KI played a crucial role in this reaction. The mechanism was described.

Abstract
1,3-Zwitterions generated from N-aminopyridines in the presence of base are trapped by perfluoroalkynylphosphonates to yield a variety of perfluoroalkylated pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine derivatives bearing a phosphonate group. The salient features of these [3+2] cycloadditions include operational simplicity, good tolerance of functional groups, and good to excellent yields at room temperature.

Abstract
A variety of perfluoroalkyl-substituted γ-spiroiminolactones have been synthesized via a one-pot, three-component cascade reaction in which isocyanides, methyl perfluoroalk-2-ynoates and 1,2-diketones undergo highly regioselective Michael addition, nucleophilic addition and cyclization. This reaction has the advantages of good to excellent chemical yields, operationally simple procedure, and short reaction times.
