Abstract
OBJECTIVES Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL ± P) is one of the most common birth malformations. Currently, numerous susceptibility SNPs have been reported by GWA studies, however, the replications of them among NSCL ± P from Han Chinese were very limited. DESIGN In this study, we selected 16 SNPs around 1q32.2 based on the published GWA studies and replicated them among 302 trios with NSCL ± P from Han Chinese Population. The genotypic data was analyzed with FBAT, PLINK and R package. SETTING The study was conducted in a tertiary medical center. PATIENTS, PARTICIPANTS 302 patients with CL ± P and their parents. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES To ascertain the genetic variants in 1q32.2 in patients with CL ± P in Han Chinese Population. INTERVENTIONS Blood samples were collected. RESULTS We found T allele (Z = 4.26, p = 0.00002) and T/T homozygotes (Z = 4.4, p = 0.000011) at rs12063989 was significantly over-transmitted among non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL ± P). CONCLUSIONS We found rs12063989 exhibited significant association with the occurrence of NSCL ± P, which would provide new evidence for the future study in the etiology of NSCL ± P.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM The biological characterization of microbial environment in early gastric cancer (EGC), other than Helicobacter pylori, is limited. This study aimed to explore the microbial microenvironment in chronic gastritis (CG), fundic gland polyps (FGPs), low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (LGIN), and EGC. METHODS 16S-rRNA gene sequencing and bioinformatic analysis were performed on 63 individuals with 252 mucosal biopsies or endoscopic submucosal dissection margin samples from endoscopy. RESULTS The microbiota in gastric LGIN functions analogously to EGC in terms of functional prediction. Neoplastic lesions showed a significant difference to CG or FGPs in beta diversity of the microbiota. Bacteria genera including Paracoccus, Blautia, Barnesiella, Lactobacillus, Thauera, Collinsella were significantly enriched in gastric neoplastic mucosa (LGIN and EGC) compared with non-neoplastic tissues (CG and FGPs). While Pseudomonas and Kingella were depleted in neoplastic tissues. FGPs showed a distinctive microbial network system that negatively interacted with Helicobacter. CONCLUSIONS In terms of the mucosal microbial microenvironment, gastric LGIN and EGC showed no significant difference as early neoplastic lesions. We observed a coordinated microbial microenvironment that correlated negatively with Helicobacter.

Abstract
To determine prognostic factors for postoperative velopharyngeal function following the primary cleft palate repair at the age of five and above. This study reviewed patients with cleft palate who had undergone Furlow palatoplasty at age 5 or older from 2009 to 2014. We obtained intraoperative measurements, including velar length, pharyngeal depth, cleft width, maxillary width, cleft palate index (cleft width/maxillary width) and palatopharyngeal ratio (velar length/pharyngeal depth), as well as speech evaluation results at least 1 year after surgery. Logistic regression and retrospective analyses were performed to determine factors associated with speech performance after the primary cleft palate repair. Among the six intraoperative measurements of velopharyngeal morphology, only pharyngeal depth was incorporated into the regression model, and was found to have an inverse association with postoperative velopharyngeal function, Exp (B) 0.883 (95% CI 0.798-0.976). Moreover, a pharyngeal depth greater than 16 mm was significantly associated with a higher risk of postoperative velopharyngeal insufficiency (P < 0.01). Pharyngeal depth is potentially a prognostic indicator for the primary management of cleft palate in older patients. Pharyngoplasty may need to be considered when the pharyngeal depth is large and the patient's access to surgery is limited.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to compare the postoperative outcome of the new and classical muscular reconstruction technique combined with nasal internal-fixation method for secondary deformity post unilateral cleft lip repair. A rationale is provided for the further surgical improvement of secondary deformities. METHODS Sixty patients aged 4-18 years with secondary unilateral cleft lip-nose deformity were involved in this research. The deformities of 28 patients were repaired using the muscular force balance technique through nasal internal fixation method, and 32 were repaired using classical muscular reconstruction technique. Two-dimensional analysis was used to evaluate the nose-lip morphology of pre- and post-operative patients through standardized photographs seven days after surgery. RESULTS Compared with preoperative nasal morphology in the muscular force balance technique group, the 7-days postoperative results of this group showed the significantly improved short-term outcomes in the correction of columellar deflection, alar rim angle, nasal shape, and the symmetry of alar base width, nostril width, nostril height, alar rim angle (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The new muscular reconstruction technique with nasal internal-fixation method has a significant effect on nasal repair.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are currently no effective treatments specifically targeting anticipatory anhedonia, a major symptom of severe depression which is associated with poor outcomes. The present study investigated the efficacy of individualized repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) targeting the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (lDLPFC)-nucleus accumbens (NAcc) network on anticipatory anhedonia in depression. METHODS This randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled clinical trial (NCT03991572) enrolled 56 depression patients with anhedonia symptoms. Each participant received 15 once-daily sessions of rTMS at 10 Hz and 100% motor threshold. Stimulation was localized to the site of strongest IDLPFC-NAcc connectivity by functional magnetic resonance imaging. The Hamilton depression rating scale (HAMD) was used to measure depression severity, the temporal experience pleasure scale (TEPS) to measure anticipatory and consummatory anhedonia to specifically measure anticipatory/motivational anhedonia. Event-related potentials during the monetary incentive delay (MID) task were recorded to evaluate the electrophysiological correlates of reward anticipation and response. RESULTS Patients in the Real group showed significant improvements in anticipatory anhedonia and general depression symptoms posttreatment compared to the Sham group. The Real group also demonstrated more positive going cue-N2 and cue-P3 amplitude during MID reward trials after treatment. The change in cue-P3 posttreatment was positive correlated with improved TEPS-anti score. CONCLUSION Individualized rTMS of the lDLPFC-NAcc network can effectively alleviate anticipatory anhedonia and improved the reward seeking as evidenced by enhanced MID behavioral performance and more positive going cue-N2 and cue-P3. The lDLPFC-NAcc network plays a critical role in anticipatory reward and motivation processing.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Primary retroperitoneal tumours (PRTs) are rare soft tissue tumours originating from the retroperitoneum. Although there has been considerable progress recently in diagnosis and treatment, the overall survival rate has not improved qualitatively. This study aimed to explore the clinical features, therapeutic strategies and prognosis of PRTs. METHODS Retrospective analysis of clinical data for 121 PRT patients admitted to Peking University Shenzhen Hospital from April 2003 to February 2017. RESULTS A total of 113 patients underwent surgery and 8 chose nonsurgical palliative treatment. There were 53 males and 68 females (ratio, 1:1.3; average age, 40.75 years), and the average tumour diameter was 9.69(2-40)cm. A total of 104 patients (92.04%) underwent complete resection, 5 (4.42%) underwent palliative resection and 21 (18.58%) underwent combined visceral resection. The pathological diagnosis was benign in 88 cases (72.73%) and malignant in 33 cases (27.27%). A total of 101 patients (83.47%) were followed for an average of 5.82 years. At the end of follow up, the recurrence and survival rates were 2.63% and 93.42% for benign tumours, respectively, and 24.00% and 60.00% for malignant tumours (p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Imaging plays important roles in localising and characterising tumours, guiding treatment strategies. Complete tumour resection is key to reducing postoperative recurrence and improving survival. According to the postsurgical pathological results, combinations including radiotherapy, chemotherapy or targeted therapy are beneficial for improving prognosis.

Abstract
Cleft palate is a good model to pushing us toward a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms of spatiotemporal patterns in tissues and organisms because of the multiple-step processes such as elevation and fusion. Previous studies have shown that the epithelial β-catenin is crucial for palatal fusion, however, the function of the mesenchymal β-catenin remains elusive. We investigate the role of mesenchymal β-catenin in palatal development by generating a β-catenin conditional knockout mouse (CKO) (Sox9CreER; Ctnnb1F/F ). We found that the CKO mice exhibited delayed palatal elevation, leading to cleft palate in both in vivo and ex vivo. Abnormal cell proliferation and repressed mesenchymal canonical Wnt signaling were found in the CKO palate. Interestingly, Filamentous actin (F-actin) polymerization was significantly reduced in the palatal mesenchyme of mutant embryos. Furthermore, overexpression of adenovirus-mediated transfection with Acta1 in the mutant could help to elevate the palatal shelves but could not prevent cleft palate in ex vivo. Our results suggest that conditionally knock out β-catenin in the palatal mesenchyme by Sox9CreER leading to delayed palatal elevation, which results in repressed mesenchymal canonical Wnt signaling, decreased cell proliferation, and reduced actin polymerization, finally causes cleft palate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Non-syndromic cleft palate only (NSCPO) is a common congenital deformity with complex etiologies. GRHL3, FAF1, and KCNJ2 have been reported to be involved in the pathogenesis of NSCPO. Up till now, there have been no replication studies based on large Han Chinese. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate associations between GRHL3, FAF1, KCNJ2, and NSCPO sub-phenotypes patients in Han Chinese. MATERIALS AND METHODS Firstly, we selected 2 SNPs based on previous literatures: FAF1 (rs3827730) and GRHL3 (rs41268753). Also, we selected 8 tagSNPs in GRHL3 (rs557811, rs609352, rs10903078, rs6659209, rs12401714, rs12568599, rs3887581, rs12024148) and 2 tagSNPs in KCNJ2 (rs75855040 and rs236514). Afterward, we evaluated these SNPs among 1668 NSCPO patients and 1811 normal controls from Han Chinese. Following data were analyzed by PLINK and Haploview program. RESULTS Association analysis under additive model showed that allele A at rs12568599 in GRHL3 gene is significantly associated with NSCPO (p = 0.0034, OR = 1.38 and 95%CI: 1.11-1.72) and its sub-phenotype incomplete cleft palate (ICP) (p = 0.0039, OR = 1.4 and 95%CI: 1.11-1.75), and it could increase the risk of both NSCPO and ICP. CONCLUSIONS This study firstly found that rs12568599 in GRHL3 is associated with NSCPO and ICP in Han Chinese, indicating that sub-phenotypes of NSCPO have different etiologies.

Abstract
Craniofacial muscles emerge as a developmental novelty during the evolution from invertebrates to vertebrates, facilitating diversified modes of predation, feeding and communication. In contrast to the well-studied limb muscles, knowledge about craniofacial muscle stem cell biology has only recently starts to be gathered. Craniofacial muscles are distinct from their counterparts in other regions in terms of both their embryonic origin and their injury response. Compared with somite-derived limb muscles, pharyngeal arch-derived craniofacial muscles demonstrate delayed myofiber reconstitution and prolonged fibrosis during repair. The regeneration of muscle is orchestrated by a blended source of stem/progenitor cells, including myogenic muscle satellite cells (MuSCs), mesenchymal fibro-adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) and other interstitial progenitors. Limb muscles host MuSCs of the Pax3 lineage, and FAPs from the mesoderm, while craniofacial muscles have MuSCs of the Mesp1 lineage and FAPs from the ectoderm-derived neural crest. Both in vivo and in vitro data revealed distinct patterns of proliferation and differentiation in these craniofacial muscle stem/progenitor cells. Additionally, the proportion of cells of different embryonic origins changes throughout postnatal development in the craniofacial muscles, creating a more dynamic niche environment than in other muscles. In-depth comparative studies of the stem cell biology of craniofacial and limb muscles might inspire the development of novel therapeutics to improve the management of myopathic diseases. Based on the most up-to-date literature, we delineated the pivotal cell populations regulating craniofacial muscle repair and identified clues that might elucidate the distinct embryonic origin and injury response in craniofacial muscle cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The orbicularis oris muscle exhibits a deficiency in cleft lip patients. Compared with the somite-derived limb muscles, the regeneration performance of the branchiomeric orofacial muscle has seldom been investigated. OBJECTIVE This study aims to explore the possibility of augmenting the orbicularis oris muscle through the stimulus of Wnt7a. METHODS Adult rat orbicularis oris muscle and tibialis anterior muscle were injected with recombinant human Wnt7a protein. The muscles were harvested at different time points after Wnt7a delivery. Muscle regeneration-related activity, including cell proliferation, stem cell proportion, myofiber plasticity, and total fiber number, was examined. RESULTS Adult rat orbicularis oris muscle and tibialis anterior muscle exhibit similar regeneration-related activities after Wnt7a administration. Recombinant human Wnt7a administration resulted in enhanced cell proliferation, stem cell expansion, and fiber type remodelling in rat orbicularis oris muscle. In addition, newly formed myofibers were detected, contributing to an increased total fiber number. CONCLUSION Wnt7a induces vigorous regeneration in rat orbicularis oris muscle. This study helps lay a foundation for developing biotherapies to combat orofacial muscle deficiency.

Abstract
Background The postoperative morphological appearances vary widely patients with unilateral cleft lip with or without cleft palate (UCL/P), whether it is complete or incomplete cleft. The main reason of bilateral lip asymmetry after cleft lip surgery lies in the lack of personalized measurement and design before surgery. In this study, we aim to individually investigate areas of the upper lip on cleft and non-cleft sides in patients with unilateral cleft lip with or without cleft palate (UCL/P). Methods Ninety-two patients with UCL/P (group 1: <1 year, group 2: 1–2 years) were included in the study. Group 1 included 37 patients with incomplete UCL/P and 29 with complete UCL/P; group 2 included 11 and 15 patients, respectively. The total area of the upper lip on the cleft side (Q8) was divided into Q3, Q4, and Q5 (further divided into a1 and a2), and the upper lip on the non-cleft side (Q7) was divided into Q2 and Q1 (further divided into A1 and A2). Area ratios between the cleft and the non-cleft sides were calculated, and certain parameters were tested for correlations with these ratios. Results Values of Q8/Q7 were partially overlapped between patients with complete and incomplete UCL/P. Significant correlations were noted between differences in height of the philtrum column (a–h) and the prolabial area ratio between the cleft and the non-cleft side (Q3/Q2) (P=0.032). Moreover, a significant correlation was noted between a1/A1 and the ratio of the lateral labial area between the cleft and the non-cleft side (Q5/Q1) (P=0.001). Conclusions The conventional classification of unilateral cleft lip as incomplete and complete does not completely and accurately reflect individual malformations. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze unilateral cleft lips individually to determine the repair technique and to predict postoperative outcomes.

Abstract
Cleft palate repair is a challenging procedure for cleft surgeons to teach, and in research, it can be difficult to evaluate different techniques and develop new treatments. In this study, a congenital cleft palate New Zealand rabbit model has been described and could be beneficial in future studies concerning cleft palate repair. Pregnant New Zealand rabbits received 1.0 mg dexamethasone injection intramuscularly once a day from the 13th gestation day (GD13) to GD16. On GD31. Newborn rabbits were delivered by cesarean sections, fed with a standardized gastric tube feeding method, and divided into two groups. The rate of survival and the incidence of cleft palate was calculated. Weight, appearance, behavior, maxillary occlusal view, and regional anatomic and histological comparisons were recorded within 1 month after birth. Infants from the two groups with similar physiological conditions were selected for continuous maxillofacial and mandibular Micro-CT scan and three-dimensional reconstruction analysis. Ten pregnant rabbits gave birth to 48 live infants. The survival and cleft palate rates were 65.6% and 60.4% respectively. Both groups survived over 1 month with no difference in weight, appearance, and behavior. The cleft type was stable, and anatomical defects, histological characteristics, and nasal-maxillary abnormalities of the cleft were similar to those of humans. There was no statistically significant difference in maxillary and mandible development between the two groups within one month after birth. This congenital cleft palate model is considered to have more research possibilities with efficient cleft induction, reliable feeding methods, stable anatomical defects, and maxillofacial development similar to those seen in humans.

Abstract
Oral and maxillofacial space infections (OMSI) are common diseases of the facial region involving fascial spaces. Recently, OMSI shows trends of multi drug-resistance, severe symptoms, and increased mortality. OMSI treatment principles need to be updated to improve the cure rate. Based on the clinical experiences of Chinese experts and with the incorporation of international counterparts' expertise, the principles of preoperative checklist, interpretation of examination results, empirical medication principles, surgical treatment principles, postoperative drainage principles, prevention strategies of wisdom teeth pericoronitis-related OMSI, blood glucose management, physiotherapy principles, Ludwig's angina treatment and perioperative care were systematically summarized and an expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of OMSI was reached. The consensus aims to provide criteria for the diagnosis and treatment of OMSI in China so as to improve the level of OMSI treatment.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the incidence of postoperative fistula formation from a hybrid cleft palate repair compared to that from two well-established techniques. We performed a modified technique, Sommerlad-Furlow (SF), which combined the repositioning of the levator veli palatini muscles as described by Sommerlad with the double opposing Z-plasty of Furlow to lengthen the soft palate. A retrospective cohort study was conducted to evaluate patients who underwent cleft palate repair utilizing SF, Sommerlad, or Furlow techniques with the incidence of palatal fistula as the target endpoint. A total of 1,164 patients were included in the present study and underwent the following techniques: 603 cases with SF, 244 cases with Furlow, and 317 cases with Sommerlad. In addition to not requiring relaxing incisions, SF advantages included a consistently lower fistula rate compared to that of the Sommerlad technique, as well as the lowest fistula rate in patients with both hard and soft palate clefts without a cleft lip (OR:2.62 95% CI: 1.35, 5.09). However, the differences among the three techniques did not reach statistical significance in terms of a bilateral or unilateral cleft lip/palate, or in patients with a soft palate only or a submucosal cleft palate(OR: 2.22,95% CI:0.77, 6.37). Based on the results of our study, the Somerlad-Furlow technique should be preferred whenever possible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malignant solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) account for 15%-20% of all SFTs, and malignant SFTs arising from the greater omentum are extremely rare. Most malignant SFTs of the greater omentum are diagnosed via pathological examinations after surgery. In this study, we report a case of malignant omental SFT and review the published literature on this rare malignancy.
CASE SUMMARY A 64-year-old female presented with an abdominal mass, and underwent exploratory surgery, during which a huge tumor originating from the greater omentum and intraperitoneal implants were identified and resected. The results of the pathological examination, immunohistochemistry staining, and gene sequencing led to the diagnosis of malignant SFT of the greater omentum. The patient died one and a half years later due to tumor recurrence and metastasis.
CONCLUSION This is the first report of the application of gene sequencing in the diagnosis of malignant SFTs of the greater omentum.

Self-Consciousness of Appearance in Chinese Patients With Cleft Lip: Validation of the Chinese Derriford Appearance Scale 59 (DAS 59) Instrument. Front Pediatr 2021; 9:825997. [PMID: 35223716 PMCID: PMC8863654 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2021.825997] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2021] [Accepted: 12/22/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop a reliable and valid Chinese version of the Derriford Appearance Scale 59 (DAS 59) instrument for assessing the self-consciousness of appearance in Chinese patients with cleft lip. METHODS The original DAS 59 instrument was translated into Mandarin, back-translated, and culturally adapted among the Chinese population, following the protocol of the original DAS 59. The validation of the Chinese DAS 59 instrument was estimated on 443 adult participants including 213 subjects with a history of cleft lip with/without palate (CL/P, study group) and 230 normal subjects without facial appearance concern (control group). The reliability was estimated by Cronbach's α coefficient and Guttman's split-half coefficient. Content validity was tested using the Spearman correlation coefficient, while discriminant validity was tested by the Mann-Whitney U test. RESULTS The overall internal consistency of Chinese DAS 59 was excellent; Cronbach's α was 0.951 (α = 0.965 and 0.959 in the study and control groups, respectively). Further, Guttman's split-half coefficient was excellent in the study group (0.935) and control group (0.901). The validity of content was good with an acceptable correlation between all the items and domains. The construct validity through the discrimination was good with a statistically significant difference in most domains between the two groups. Patients with CL/P had more concern about the general self-consciousness and social self-consciousness of appearance. They also showed a good self-concept score. CONCLUSION The Chinese version of DAS 59 demonstrated acceptable reliability and good construct and discriminant validity. It can be used for the research and assessment of the psychological state and quality of life for Chinese patients with cleft lip as well as other appearance problems and concerns.

The role of protein restriction and interaction with antibiotics in the regulation of compensatory growth in pigs: growth performance, serum hormone concentrations, and messenger RNA levels in component tissues of the endocrine growth axis. Domest Anim Endocrinol 2021; 74:106524. [PMID: 32810657 DOI: 10.1016/j.domaniend.2020.106524] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2019] [Revised: 04/08/2020] [Accepted: 07/10/2020] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
The present study investigated the effects of protein restriction and antibiotics on the hypothalamus-pituitary-liver growth axis during the compensatory growth of growing and finishing pigs. Growth performance, serum hormones, and messenger RNA (mRNA) levels of hormones and their receptors in growth axis tissues were recorded for analyses. A total of 64 piglets (large white × Landrace × Duroc cross) with an initial weight of 10.07 ± 0.14 kg were randomly divided into 4 treatment groups of 16 piglets per group. The dietary treatments consisted of 2 protein levels (14% and 20%) and 2 antibiotic levels (no antibiotics and 20 mg/kg colistin sulfate with 50 mg/kg kitasamycin) in a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement. The study was performed over 30 d for the first stage (S1, restriction phase) and 74 d for the second stage (S2, realimentation phase). The 4 treatment diets were maintained throughout the duration in the restriction phase. The 4 groups were fed the same diet in the realimentation phase. The trial period totaled 104 d. Protein restriction decreased BW, average daily food intake, and ADG in weaning pigs (P < 0.01) and induced compensatory growth after feeding a normal diet during the growth of finishing pigs. Average daily gain increased during the last phase of compensatory growth (P < 0.01). Protein restriction increased serum GH and leptin (LEP) and the mRNA levels of liver IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1-R; P < 0.01) but decreased serum IGF-1 (P < 0.01) and the mRNA levels of liver GH receptor (GH-R; P < 0.01) and IGF-1 (P < 0.05) in weaning piglets. Serum GH was increased, but serum IGF-1 was decreased during the realimentation phase (P < 0.05). Antibiotics increased the mRNA levels of GHRH (P < 0.05) and decreased somatostatin (P < 0.01) in the hypothalamus of weaning pigs. Protein restriction and antibiotics had no interactions across the entire trial. In conclusion, the slowing of growth caused by early protein restriction may be compensated for in the later stages of pig raising, and the mechanism of compensation is related to the regulation of GH, IGF-1, GH-R, and IGF-1-R.
