Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Hypoadiponectinaemia and raised C-reactive protein (CRP) level are obesity-related biomarkers associated with glucose dysregulation. We evaluated the combined use of these two biomarkers in predicting the deterioration of glycaemia in a prospective study after a median of 5.4 years. METHODS In total 1,288 non-diabetic participants from the Hong Kong Cardiovascular Risk Factor Prevalence Study-2, with high-sensitivity CRP (hsCRP) and total adiponectin levels measured were included. OGTT was performed in all participants. Two hundred and six participants had deterioration of glycaemia at follow-up, whereas 1,082 participants did not. RESULTS Baseline age, hsCRP and adiponectin levels were significant independent predictors of the deterioration of glycaemia in a Cox regression analysis after adjusting for baseline age, sex, BMI, hypertension, triacylglycerols, 2 h post-OGTT glucose and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index (all p < 0.01). The introduction of hsCRP or adiponectin level to a regression model including the other biomarker improved the prediction of glycaemic progression significantly in all participants, especially in women (all p < 0.01). The combined inclusion of the two biomarkers resulted in a modest improvement in model discrimination, compared with the inclusion of either one alone. Among participants with impaired fasting glucose/impaired glucose tolerance (IFG/IGT) at baseline, hsCRP and adiponectin levels were not predictive of progression or improvement of glycaemic status. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Adiponectin and hsCRP levels are independent factors in predicting the deterioration of glycaemia, supporting the role of adiposity-related inflammation in the development of type 2 diabetes. Their combined use as predictive biomarkers is especially useful in women, but not in participants with IFG/IGT.

Abstract
SA aneurysm (SAA) accounts for up to 50% to 75% of all visceral artery aneurysms associated with a high mortality rate of 25% in case of aneurysm rupture. It is the third most common intra-abdominal aneurysm following those of the aorta and the iliac arteries. The incidence of SAA varies from 0.1 to 10.4% in the general population. It has anatomic variations in about 10% of the population, 1% of which emerging from the superior mesenteric artery. Accordingly, SAA arising from a spleno-mesenteric trunk is very rare. To our best knowledge, there are only a few cases reported in the literature up to date. This is a review of literature and reported cases with anomalous SAAs arising from a spleno-mesenteric trunk, which had been diagnosed by ultrasound (US), computed tomography angiography (CTA), digital subtraction angiography (DSA), and managed by open surgery.

Abstract
Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) has been widely used for the treatment of painful malignant lesions of the spine. Spinal metastasis with epidural involvement, with or without symptoms of neurologic compression, is regarded by some authors as a contraindication or relative contraindication to the procedure. To evaluate safety and effectiveness of PVP in pain management of spinal metastasis with epidural involvement, we retrospectively analyzed PVP in 32 patients with metastatic disease, who presented with at least one vertebral lesion with destruction of the posterior vertebral body wall or epidural extension of tumor. Among these patients, nine had signs of spinal cord or cauda equina compression. Procedural safety was evaluated by any post-procedure adverse events. The PVP analgesic efficacy was evaluated by follow-up neurological examination. Pain intensity was scored on a visual analog scale scored from 0 (no pain) to 10 (maximum pain intensity). The effective pain relief was defined as at least 50% improvement in pain score as compared with pre- procedure baseline. Follow-up assessments were performed at 1 day; 1 week; 1, 3, and 6 months after the procedure. Fifty-three vertebrae in 32 patients were treated in this group. Analgesic efficacy in survival patients was rated at 97% (31/32) at 1day and 1 week, 86.7% (26/30) at 1 month, 82.3% (24/29) at 3 months, and 76.9% (20/26) at 6 months after procedure. Leakage of PMMA was detected in 64% (33/53) treated vertebrae. No systemic complications were observed in all treated patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abnormalities in the connectivity of white-matter (WM) tracts in schizophrenia are supported by evidence from post-mortem investigations, functional and structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). The aims of this study were to explore the microstructural changes in first-episode schizophrenia in a Han Chinese population and to investigate whether a family history of psychiatric disorder is related to the severity of WM tract integrity abnormalities in these patients. METHOD T1-weighted MR and DT images were collected in 68 patients with first-episode schizophrenia [22 with a positive family history (PFH) and 46 with a negative family history (NFH)] and 100 healthy controls. Voxel-based analysis was performed and WM integrity was quantified by fractional anisotropy (FA). Cluster- and voxel-level analyses were performed by using two-sample t tests between patients and controls and/or using a full factorial model with one factor and three levels among the three sample groups (patients with PFH or NFH, and controls), as appropriate. RESULTS FA deficits were observed in the patient group, especially in the left temporal lobe and right corpus callosum. This effect was more severe in the non-familial schizophrenia than in the familial schizophrenia subgroup. CONCLUSIONS Overall, these findings support the hypothesis that loss of WM integrity may be an important pathophysiological feature of schizophrenia, with particular implications for brain dysmaturation in non-familial and familial schizophrenia.

Abstract
AIM The predictions of scaling of skeletal muscle shortening velocity made by A.V. Hill 60-years ago have proven to be remarkably accurate at the cellular level. The current investigation looks to extend the study of scaling of contractile speed to the level of the molecular motor protein myosin at both physiological and unphysiological low temperatures. METHODS A single muscle cell in vitro motility assay to test myosin function, i.e. myosin extracted from short single muscle fibre segments, was used in four species representing a 5 500-fold difference in body mass (rat, man, horse and rhinoceros) at temperatures ranging from 15 to 35 °C. RESULTS The in vitro motility speed increased as the temperature of the assay increased, but a more profound effect was observed on the slower isoforms, narrowing the relative differences between fast and slow myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoforms at physiological temperature in all species. The in vitro motility speed varied according to MyHC isoform within each species: I < IIa < IIx < IIb, but the expected scaling relationship within orthologous myosin isoforms was not observed at any temperature. CONCLUSION The scaling effect of body size and limb length on shortening velocity at the muscle fibre level, i.e. the decreasing shortening velocity associated with increasing body weight and limb length, was not confirmed at the motor protein level when including mammals of very large size. Thus, other factors than myosin structure and function appear to cause this scaling effect and thin filament isoform expression or myofilament lattice spacing are forwarded as alternative underlying factors.

Abstract
The immunological consequences of cryoablation for gliomas are largely unknown. cryoablation is an attractive therapeutic option for tumors due to its minimally invasive nature. cryoablation is also potentially immunogenic. With an aim to explore changes in cellular immunity following argon-helium cryosurgery, we established Wistar rat models bearing subcutaneous C6 glioma and divided the rats into the normal control (30 rats), sham-operated (33 rats), surgical resection (30 rats), and cryosurgery (33 rats) groups with corresponding treatments. The tumor cell morphology was observed, and changes in the T lymphocyte subset and NK lymphocyte subset and the ratio of Th1/Th2 were assessed with flow cytometry following the cryosurgery. The results showed that subcutaneous tumor implantation was successful in all cases and this was confirmed histologically. Compared with surgical resection that caused significant reduction in CD3(+), CD4(+), CD14(+), CD16+56 cell percentages, cryosurgery resulted in significantly increased percentages of CD3(+), CD4(+), CD14(+), CD16+56 cells (P < 0.05) with a increase of the Th1/Th2 ratio 7 days after the operation. These results demonstrate that in addition to tumor cell destruction, cryosurgery also results in enhanced cellular immunity, suggesting the great potential of argon-helium cryosurgery in clinical management of gliomas.

Abstract
Few genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of schizophrenia have included Chinese populations, and verification of positive genetic findings from other ethnic groups is rare in Chinese groups. We used fluid intelligence as the quantitative trait reflecting schizophrenia dysfunction in Chinese populations, and determined the impact of genetic variation on fluid intelligence phenotypic patterns to identify genetic influences in schizophrenia. The study sample comprised 98 patients with schizophrenia and 60 healthy controls. The general fluid intelligence of participants was assessed with Cattell's Culture-Free Intelligence Test (CCFIT). Subjects were genotyped using the Illumina HumanHap 660 beadchip. We identified the methionine sulfoxide reductase A (MSRA) gene on chromosome 8 as having an association with fluid intelligence. However, only CCFIT subtest 1 (series score) demonstrated a significant result for the interaction term using the criteria of the quantitative trait (QT) analysis of 10(-5) for at least three SNPs. There were 15 haplotype blocks of MSRA gene SNPs identified using Haploview 4.2 with solid spine D' > 0.80. The strongest QT interaction was noted in Block 3, with the most common haplotypes being AAACAGCAG and CGCAGAAGA. In conclusion, we report data from a GWAS with quantitative traits design from Chinese first-episode schizophrenia patients and matched controls. Although the gene identified requires confirmation in an independent sample, the MSRA gene located on chromosome 8 was found to be associated with the phenotype of schizophrenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Keloids are benign skin tumours occurring during wound healing in genetically predisposed patients. There is evidence that transforming growth factor (TGF)-b is involved in keloid formation. Collagen triple helix repeat containing- 1 (Cthrc1) was identified as a novel gene expressed in the adventitia and neointima on arterial injury. It is indicated to be a cell type-specific inhibitor of TGF-b, which functionally increases cell migration while reducing collagen type I and III deposition. However, to our knowledge expression and regulatory mechanisms of Cthrc1 and TGF-b1 in keloid and normal skin have not been studied before. OBJECTIVES Cthrc1 gene regulation and potential role in keloid formation were determined, and its correlation with TGF-b1 involved in keloid pathogenesis was examined in human fibroblasts of keloids and normal skin. METHODS The expression of Cthrc1 and TGF-b1 was investigated in fibroblasts of keloid and normal skin. Collagen type I expression and collagen synthesis in keloid fibroblasts induced by TGF-b1 were examined. Then, recombinant Cthrc1 was applied to assess its correlation with TGF-b1. RESULTS Increased TGF-b1 and Cthrc1 expression was examined in keloid compared with normal skin. Cthrc1 expression increased in a concentration-dependent manner induced by TGF-b1 in keloid fibroblasts. TGF-b1 stimulated collagen type I expression and collagen synthesis in keloid fibroblasts, which can be reversed by recombinant Cthrc1. CONCLUSIONS TGF-b1 was upregulated in keloid fibroblasts and recombinant Cthrc1 inhibited TGF-b1-stimulated collagen type I synthesis, which suggests that Cthrc1 may be a potential therapeutic option for keloids.
