Abstract
Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease is a severe autoimmune disease. Herein, whole-exome sequencing (WES) study are performed on 2,573 controls and 229 VKH patients with follow-up next-generation sequencing (NGS) in a collection of 2,380 controls and 2,278 VKH patients. A rare c.188T>C (p Val63Ala) variant in the olfactory receptor 11H1 (OR11H1) gene is found to be significantly associated with VKH disease (rs71235604, Pcombined = 7.83 × 10-30 , odds ratio = 3.12). Functional study showes that OR11H1-A63 significantly increased inflammatory factors production and exacerbated barrier function damage. Further studies using RNA-sequencing find that OR11H1-A63 markedly increased growth arrest and DNA-damage-inducible gamma (GADD45G) expression. Moreover, OR11H1-A63 activates the MAPK and NF-κB pathways, and accelerates inflammatory cascades. In addition, inhibiting GADD45G alleviates inflammatory factor secretion, likely due to the regulatory effect of GADD45G on the MAPK and NF-κB pathways. Collectively, this study suggests that the OR11H1-A63 missense mutation may increase susceptibility to VKH disease in a GADD45G-dependent manner.

Abstract
We aimed to investigate the characteristics of intestinal metabolomics and non-invasive biomarkers for early diagnosis of late-onset sepsis (LOS) by analyzing gut metabolites in preterm infants with LOS. We collected stool samples from septic and healthy preterm infants for analysis by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. 123 different metabolites were identified and 13 pathways were mainly involved. Glycine, serine, and threonine metabolism; glyoxylate and dicarboxylic acid metabolism; glutathione metabolism; primary bile acid biosynthesis; steroid synthesis; pentose and glucuronic acid interconversion may be involved in the pathogenesis of LOS in preterm infants. The significant changes of N-Methyldopamine, cellulose, glycine, gamma-Glutamyltryptophan, N-Ribosylnicotinamide and 1alpha, 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol showed specific diagnostic values and as non-invasive biomarkers for LOS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been reported that the gut microbiome is involved in the pathogenesis of uveitis, but the specific pathogenic microbes and metabolites in different types of uveitis are still unclear. METHODS Microbiome and metabolites were detected using 16S ribosomal DNA and LC‒MS/MS (liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry) in 45 individuals, including 16 patients with Vogt Koyanagi Harada (VKH), 11 patients with acute anterior uveitis (AAU) and 18 healthy controls. RESULT The diversity of intestinal microbes among the VKH, AAU and control groups was not significantly different. Thirteen specific microbes and 38 metabolites were detected in the VKH group, and 7 metabolites (vanillin, erythro-isoleucine, pyrimidine, 1-aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid, beta-tocopherol, (-)-gallocatechin and N1-methyl-4-pyridone-3-carboxamide) significantly changed only in patients with VKH, which mainly acted on nicotinamide and nicotinamide metabolism and biotin metabolism (p<0.05). Compared with the VKH group, the AAU group had milder intestinal changes. Only 11 specific microbes and 29 metabolites changed in the AAU group, while these metabolites were not specific (p<0.05). These metabolites mainly acted on arachidonic acid metabolism. In addition, three microbes and two metabolites had the same changes in the VKH and AAU groups (p<0.05). Multiple correlations were found between gut microbes and metabolites in the VKH and AAU groups. Six microbes (Pediococcus, Pseudomonas, Rhodococcus, Photobacterium, Gardnerella and Lawsonia) and two metabolites (pyrimidine and gallocatechin) as biomarkers could effectively distinguish patients with VKH from patients with AAU and healthy individuals, with AUC (area under the curve) values greater than 82%. Four microbes (Lentilactobacillus, Lachnospiraceae_UCG-010, Cetobacterium, Liquorilactobacillus) could distinguish patients with AAU from patients with VKH and healthy controls with AUC>76%. CONCLUSION Significant differences in intestinal microbes and metabolites suggest their different roles in the pathogenesis of uveitis entities. Changes in the metabolism of certain B vitamins may be involved in the pathogenesis of VKH.

Abstract
The degeneration of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) often causes irreversible vision impairment. Prevention of RGC degeneration can prevent or delay the deterioration of visual function. The present study aimed to investigate retinal metabolic profiles following optic nerve transection (ONT) injury and identify the potential metabolic targets for the prevention of RGC degeneration. Retinal samples were dissected from ONT group and non‑ONT group. The untargeted metabolomics were carried out using liquid chromatography‑tandem mass spectrometry. The involved pathways and biomarkers were analyzed using Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis and MetaboAnalyst 5.0. In the ONT group, 689 disparate metabolites were detected, including lipids and lipid‑like molecules. A total of 122 metabolites were successfully annotated and enriched in 50 KEGG pathways. Among them, 'sphingolipid metabolism' and 'primary bile acid biosynthesis' were identified involved in RGC degeneration. A total of five metabolites were selected as the candidate biomarkers for detecting RGC degeneration with an AUC value of 1. The present study revealed that lipid‑related metabolism was involved in the pathogenesis of retinal neurodegeneration. Taurine, taurochenodesoxycholic acid, taurocholic acid (TCA), sphingosine, and galabiosylceramide are shown as the promising biomarkers for the diagnosis of RGC degeneration.

Abstract
Background: Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease is a common and easily blinded uveitis entity, with choroid being the main involved site. Classification of VKH disease and its different stages is crucial because they differ in clinical manifestations and therapeutic interventions. Wide-field swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (WSS-OCTA) provides the advantages of non-invasiveness, large-field-of-view, high resolution, and ease of measuring and calculating choroid, offering the potential feasibility of simplified VKH classification assessment based on WSS-OCTA. Methods: 15 healthy controls (HC), 13 acute-phase and 17 convalescent-phase VKH patients were included, undertaken WSS-OCTA examination with a scanning field of 15 × 9 mm2. 20 WSS-OCTA parameters were then extracted from WSS-OCTA images. To classify HC and VKH patients in acute and convalescent phases, two 2-class VKH datasets (HC and VKH) and two 3-class VKH datasets (HC, acute-phase VKH, and convalescent-phase VKH) were established by the WSS-OCTA parameters alone or in combination with best-corrected visual acuity (logMAR BCVA) and intraocular pressure (IOP), respectively. A new feature selection and classification method that combines an equilibrium optimizer and a support vector machine (called SVM-EO) was adopted to select classification-sensitive parameters among the massive datasets and to achieve outstanding classification performance. The interpretability of the VKH classification models was demonstrated based on SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP). Results: Based on pure WSS-OCTA parameters, we achieved classification accuracies of 91.61% ± 12.17% and 86.69% ± 8.30% for 2- and 3-class VKH classification tasks. By combining the WSS-OCTA parameters and logMAR BCVA, we achieved better classification performance of 98.82% ± 2.63% and 96.16% ± 5.88%, respectively. Through SHAP analysis, we found that logMAR BCVA and vascular perfusion density (VPD) calculated from the whole field of view region in the choriocapillaris (whole FOV CC-VPD) were the most important features for VKH classification in our models. Conclusion: We achieved excellent VKH classification performance based on a non-invasive WSS-OCTA examination, which provides the possibility for future clinical VKH classification with high sensitivity and specificity.

Abstract
Background The diversification of follow-up ophthalmic imaging examination methods, and whether there are differences in clinical characteristics of VKH at the acute stage under different images. Our study aims to compare the imaging characteristics of the acute phase of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease (VKH) under different fundus imaging methods to deepen clinical knowledge. Methods A retrospective case study was performed on fundus images of 62 eyes from 31 patients with acute phase VKH and a disease duration ≤2 months who were treated at Ganzhou People's Hospital from January 2013 to December 2020. Fundus photography (FP), optical coherence tomography (OCT), and fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) were performed on all 62 eyes. The fundus presentations were divided into an optic disc swelling (ODS) group, a serous retinal detachment (SRD) group, and a mixed type (MT) group (both ODS and SRD), and the proportions of patients in these groups and the coincidence rate of ODS, SRD, and MT identified by the three fundus imaging modes were determined. Results The proportion of patients with ODS was highest under FP, and the proportion of patients with MT was highest under OCT. The proportions of patients with ODS and MT in the three fundus imaging modes differed significantly (P < 0.05), while the proportion of patients with SRD did not (P > 0.05). The proportion of patients with subretinal fluid with positive OCT results was significantly higher than those with positive FFA results (81.08% vs. 59.46%) (P < 0.05). Conclusion Clinically significant positive signs could be obtained for acute VKH under different imaging methods. However, compared with FP and FFA, OCT tomography is more intuitive for the observation of lesions.

Abstract
By far, no study has focused on observing the metabolomic profiles in perimenopause-related obesity. This study attempted to identify the metabolic characteristics of subjects with perimenopause obesity (PO). Thirty-nine perimenopausal Chinese women, 21 with PO and 18 without obesity (PN), were recruited in this study. A conventional ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight/mass spectrometry (UHPLC-QTOF/MS) followed by principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least-squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were used as untargeted metabolomics approaches to explore the serum metabolic profiles. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and MetaboAnalyst were used to identify the related metabolic pathways. A total of 46 differential metabolites, along with seven metabolic pathways relevant to PO were identified, which belonged to lipid, amino acids, carbohydrates, and organic acids. As for amino acids, we found a significant increase in l-arginine and d-ornithine in the positive ion (POS) mode and l-leucine, l-valine, l-tyrosine, and N-acetyl-l-tyrosine in the negative ion (NEG) mode and a significant decrease in l-proline in the POS mode of the PO group. We also found phosphatidylcholine (PC) (16:0/16:0), palmitic acid, and myristic acid, which are associated with the significant upregulation of lipid metabolism. Moreover, the serum indole lactic acid and indoleacetic acid were upregulated in the NEG mode. With respect to the metabolic pathways, the d-arginine and d-ornithine metabolisms and the arginine and proline metabolism pathways in POS mode were the most dominant PO-related pathways. The changes of metabolisms of lipid, amino acids, and indoleacetic acid provided a pathophysiological scenario for Chinese women with PO. We believe that the findings of this study are helpful for clinicians to take measures to prevent the women with PO from developing severe incurable obesity-related complications, such as cardiovascular disease and stroke.
