Abstract
PURPOSE Incisional hernia (IH) post renal transplant (RT) is relatively uncommon and can be challenging to manage clinically due to the presence of the kidney graft and patient immunosuppression. This systematic review and meta-analysis synthesises the current literature in relation to IH rates, risk factors and outcomes post RT. METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) were searched up to July 2023. The most up to date Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta Analyses guidelines were followed. Pertinent clinical information was synthesised. A meta-analysis of the pooled proportions of IH rates, the rates of patients requiring surgical repair and the rates of recurrence post RT are reported. RESULTS Twenty studies comprising 16,018 patients were included in this analysis. The pooled rate of IH occurrence post RT was 4% (CI 3-5%). The pooled rate of IH repair post RT was 61% (CI 14-100%). The pooled rate of IH recurrence after repair was 16% (CI 9-23%). Risk factors identified for IH development post RT are BMI, immunosuppression, age, smoking, incision type, reoperation, concurrent abdominal wall hernia, lymphocele formation and pulmonary disease. CONCLUSIONS IH post RT is uncommon and the majority of IH post RT are repaired surgically on an elective basis.

Abstract
Dental enamel formation is coordinated by ameloblast differentiation, production of enamel matrix proteins, and crystal growth. The factors regulating ameloblast differentiation are not fully understood. Here we show that the high mobility group N (HMGN) nucleosomal binding proteins modulate the rate of ameloblast differentiation and enamel formation. We found that HMGN1 and HMGN2 proteins are downregulated during mouse ameloblast differentiation. Genetically altered mice lacking HMGN1 and HMGN2 proteins show faster ameloblast differentiation and a higher rate of enamel deposition in mice molars and incisors. In vitro differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells to dental epithelium cells showed that HMGN proteins modulate the expression and chromatin accessibility of ameloblast-specific genes and affect the binding of transcription factors epiprofin and PITX2 to ameloblast-specific genes. Our results suggest that HMGN proteins regulate ameloblast differentiation and enamel mineralization by modulating lineage-specific chromatin accessibility and transcription factor binding to ameloblast regulatory sites.

Abstract
BACKGROUND 18F-FDG PET/CT provides precise information about dissemination of lymphoma lesions. Dmax, defined as distance between the two lesions that were farthest apart by PET/CT, was found to be a promising predictor of Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) outcome in a small size of clinical trial data. We analyzed the impact of Dmax on the outcome of a large real-world DLBCL cohort. METHODS Data of newly diagnosed DLBCL at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were retrospectively collected. Baseline Dmax, clinical data and survival information were recorded. A metabolic parameter, metabolic bulk volume (MBV), was also measured to verify the independent impact of Dmax. RESULTS Optimal cut-off values for Dmax and MBV were 45.34 cm and 21.65 cm3. With a median follow-up of 32 months, Dmax significantly impacted progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in 253 DLBCL patients. For Dmaxlow and Dmaxhigh groups, estimated 3-year OS were 87.0% and 53.8% (p < 0.001), while 3-year PFS were 77.3% and 37.3% (p < 0.001). And for MBVlow and MBVhighgroups, 3-year OS were 84.5% and 58.8% (p < 0.001), and 3-year PFS were 68.7% and 50.4% (p = 0.003). Multivariate analysis identified Dmax and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) independently associated with PFS and OS, while MBV only independently associated with OS. A Dmax revised prognostic index (DRPI) combining Dmax and ECOG PS identified an ultra-risk DLBCL population with 3-year PFS of 31.7% and 3-year OS of 38.5%. The area under the curve (AUC) showed that this model performed better than International prognostic Index (IPI). CONCLUSION Dmax is a new and promising indicator to investigate dissemination of lymphoma lesions associated with the outcome of DLBCL. It significantly contributes to stratification of patients with disparate outcomes. TRIAL REGISTRATION This research has been retrospectively registered in the Ethics Committee institutional of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, and the registration number was approval No. 155 (approved date: 31 May 2022).

Abstract
Objective: To compare the 5-year follow-up outcomes of radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) combined with left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) and long-term oral anticoagulant (OAC) after RFCA in patients with atrial fibrillation. Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study included patients with atrial fibrillation who underwent"one-stop"procedure in the First Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University from September 2015 to December 2017 (RFCA+LAAC group). Baseline data of patients were collected. Propensity score matching at the ratio of 1∶1 was used to select patients with atrial fibrillation who took long-term OAC after RFCA (RFCA+OAC group). The maintenance rate of sinus rhythm and the incidence of adverse events during follow-up were compared between the two groups. Results: A total of 110 patients were enrolled in the RFCA+LAAC group and RFCA+OAC group, respectively. Age of patients was (67.4±8.8) years in RFCA+LAAC group, and there were 42 (38.2%) female patients. Age of patients was (67.3±7.9) years in RFCA+OAC group, and there were 47 (42.7%) female patients. The patients were followed up for mean of (5.3±1.1) years. There was no significant difference in the maintenance rate of sinus rhythm (log-rank: χ2=0.277, P=0.602) and incidence of ischemic stroke events (2.7% (3/110) vs. 4.5% (5/110), P=0.719) during follow-up between the two groups. The incidence of bleeding events (6.4% (7/110) vs. 18.2% (20/110), P=0.008) and major bleeding events (1.8% (2/110) vs. 8.2% (9/110), P=0.030) was significantly higher in the RFCA+OAC group than in the RFCA+LAAC group. Conclusion: There is no significant difference between RFCA+LAAC group and RFCA+OAC group in maintenance rate of sinus rhythm and incidence of ischemic stroke events. Patients in the RFCA+LAAC group have a lower risk of bleeding events compared to the RFCA+OAC group.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA)-derived fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) enables physiological assessment and risk stratification, which is of significance in diabetic patients with nonobstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). We aim to evaluate prognostic value of the global trans-lesional CT-FFR gradient (GΔCT-FFR), a novel metric, in patients with diabetes without flow-limiting stenosis. METHODS Patients with diabetes suspected of having CAD were prospectively enrolled. GΔCT-FFR was calculated as the sum of trans-lesional CT-FFR gradient in all epicardial vessels greater than 2 mm. Patients were stratified into low-gradient without flow-limiting group (CT-FFR > 0.75 and GΔCT-FFR < 0.20), high-gradient without flow-limiting group (CT-FFR > 0.75 and GΔCT-FFR ≥ 0.20), and flow-limiting group (CT-FFR ≤ 0.75). Discriminant ability for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) prediction was compared among 4 models [model 1: Framingham risk score; model 2: model 1 + Leiden score; model 3: model 2 + high-risk plaques (HRP); model 4: model 3 + GΔCT-FFR] to determine incremental prognostic value of GΔCT-FFR. RESULTS Of 1215 patients (60.1 ± 10.3 years, 53.7% male), 11.3% suffered from MACE after a median follow-up of 57.3 months. GΔCT-FFR (HR: 2.88, 95% CI 1.76-4.70, P < 0.001) remained independent risk factors of MACE in multivariable analysis. Compared with the low-gradient without flow-limiting group, the high-gradient without flow-limiting group (HR: 2.86, 95% CI 1.75-4.68, P < 0.001) was associated with higher risk of MACE. Among the 4 risk models, model 4, which included GΔCT-FFR, showed the highest C-statistics (C-statistics: 0.75, P = 0.002) as well as a significant net reclassification improvement (NRI) beyond model 3 (NRI: 0.605, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In diabetic patients with non-obstructive CAD, GΔCT-FFR was associated with clinical outcomes at 5 year follow-up, which illuminates a novel and feasible approach to improved risk stratification for a global hemodynamic assessment of coronary artery in diabetic patients.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the long-term clinical efficacy of transcatheter repair of mitral paravalvular leak (PVL) post surgical mitral valve replacement. Methods: This study is a retrospective study. Patients who completed transcatheter repair of paravalvular leak after surgical mitral valve replacement at Shanghai Chest Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from March 2010 to December 2018 were included. Technical success was defined as the occluder being stably implanted in the paravalvular leak site without affecting the function of the mitral valve and surrounding tissues; and there were no intervention-related complications, such as new hemolysis or aggravated hemolysis, and echocardiography confirmed mitral paravalvular regurgitation reduced by more than 1 grade. Patients were followed up at 30 days, 1, and 3 years after the intervention. The main endpoints were all-cause death and re-surgery due to interventional failure or serious complications. The occurrence of occluder-mediated hemolysis and chronic renal insufficiency was recorded, and patients were monitored with echocardiography during follow up. Results: A total of 75 patients were included, aged (54.3±22.9) years old, and 38 patients were males. All patients had decreased cardiac function and/or hemolysis before intervention. Procedural success was achieved in 54 patients (72.0%). Incidence of device-mediated hemolysis was 18.7% (14/75). During the follow-up period, all-cause death occurred in 7 patients (9.3%), and 3 were cardiac deaths.The 3-year event-free survival rate was 81.3% (61/75). The need for cardiac surgery was 9.3% (7/75): 3 cases due to severe device-mediated hemolysis, 2 cases due to prosthetic valve failure and 2 cases due to moderate to severe residual regurgitation. The echocardiography follow-up results showed that the position of the occluder was stable, there was no impact on the artificial valve function and surrounding structures, and the residual regurgitation was stable without progressive increase in event-free patients. Compared with pre-intervention, the left ventricular end systolic diameter ((33.9±7.4)mm vs. (38.3±8.9) mm, P=0.036), end diastolic diameter ((53.7±8.3) mm vs. (58.4±9.1) mm, P=0.045) and left atrial diameter (59.3 (44.5, 90.7) mm vs. 64.3 (44.8, 96.6) mm, P=0.049) were significantly reduced, pulmonary artery systolic pressure was also significantly decreased ((36.5±15.8) mmHg vs. (46.3±14.9) mmHg, P=0.022, 1 mmHg=0.133 kPa). There was no significant difference between 3 years and 1 year after transcatheter repair of mitral paravalvular leak post surgical mitral valve replacement (all P>0.05). Conclusion: Transcatheter repair of mitral paravalvular leak post surgical mitral valve replacement is an effective treatment option in selective patients.

Abstract
Elevated manganese (Mn) exposure is associated with attentional deficits in children, and is an environmental risk factor for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). We have shown that developmental Mn exposure causes lasting attention and sensorimotor deficits in a rat model of early childhood Mn exposure, and that these deficits are associated with a hypofunctioning catecholaminergic system in the prefrontal cortex (PFC), though the mechanistic basis for these deficits is not well understood. To address this, male Long-Evans rats were exposed orally to Mn (50 mg/kg/d) over PND 1-21 and attentional function was assessed in adulthood using the 5-Choice Serial Reaction Time Task. Targeted catecholaminergic system and epigenetic gene expression, followed by unbiased differential DNA methylation and gene regulation expression transcriptomics in the PFC, were performed in young adult littermates. Results show that developmental Mn exposure causes lasting focused attention deficits that are associated with reduced gene expression of tyrosine hydroxylase, dopamine transporter, and DNA methyltransferase 3a. Further, developmental Mn exposure causes broader lasting methylation and gene expression dysregulation associated with epigenetic regulation, inflammation, cell development, and hypofunctioning catecholaminergic neuronal systems. Pathway enrichment analyses uncovered mTOR and Wnt signaling pathway genes as significant transcriptomic regulators of the Mn altered transcriptome, and Western blot of total, C1 and C2 phospho-mTOR confirmed mTOR pathway dysregulation. Our findings deepen our understanding of the mechanistic basis of how developmental Mn exposure leads to lasting catecholaminergic dysfunction and attention deficits, which may aid future therapeutic interventions of environmental exposure associated disorders. Significance Statement Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is associated with environmental risk factors, including exposure to neurotoxic agents. Here we used a rodent model of developmental manganese (Mn) exposure producing lasting attention deficits to show broad epigenetic and gene expression changes in the prefrontal cortex, and to identify disrupted mTOR and Wnt signaling pathways as a novel mechanism for how developmental Mn exposure may induce lasting attention and catecholaminergic system impairments. Importantly, our findings establish early development as a critical period of susceptibility to lasting deficits in attentional function caused by elevated environmental toxicant exposure. Given that environmental health threats disproportionately impact communities of color and low socioeconomic status, our findings can aid future studies to assess therapeutic interventions for vulnerable populations.

Abstract
Objective: To development the prognostic nomogram for malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). Methods: Two hundred and ten patients pathologically confirmed as MPM were enrolled in this retrospective study from 2007 to 2020 in the People's Hospital of Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Prefecture, the First and Third Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University, and divided into training (n=112) and test (n=98) sets according to the admission time. The observation factors included demography, symptoms, history, clinical score and stage, blood cell and biochemistry, tumor markers, pathology and treatment. The Cox proportional risk model was used to analyze the prognostic factors of 112 patients in the training set. According to the results of multivariate Cox regression analysis, the prognostic prediction nomogram was established. C-Index and calibration curve were used to evaluate the model's discrimination and consistency in raining and test sets, respectively. Patients were stratified according to the median risk score of nomogram in the training set. Log rank test was performed to compare the survival differences between the high and low risk groups in the two sets. Results: The median overall survival (OS) of 210 MPM patients was 384 days (IQR=472 days), and the 6-month, 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year survival rates were 75.7%, 52.6%, 19.7%, and 13.0%, respectively. Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that residence (HR=2.127, 95% CI: 1.154-3.920), serum albumin (HR=1.583, 95% CI: 1.017-2.464), clinical stage (stage Ⅳ: HR=3.073, 95% CI: 1.366-6.910) and the chemotherapy (HR=0.476, 95% CI: 0.292-0.777) were independent prognostic factors for MPM patients. The C-index of the nomogram established based on the results of Cox multivariate regression analysis in the training and test sets were 0.662 and 0.613, respectively. Calibration curves for both the training and test sets showed moderate consistency between the predicted and actual survival probabilities of MPM patients at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years. The low-risk group had better outcomes than the high-risk group in both training (P=0.001) and test (P=0.003) sets. Conclusion: The survival prediction nomogram established based on routine clinical indicators of MPM patients provides a reliable tool for prognostic prediction and risk stratification.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The serum anion gap (AG) has been reported to be an important prognostic indicator for patients in intensive care units. To explore the potential relationship between the serum AG and 30-day mortality in patients who underwent CABG. PATIENTS AND METHODS All data were collected from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care Ⅳ (MIMIC-Ⅳ) database. We divided patients into 3 groups according to AG tertiles. The primary outcome of our study was the 30-day mortality of patients who underwent CABG. The relationship between the serum AG and mortality in individuals who underwent CABG was estimated using Cox proportional hazard models. Subgroup analysis for effect modification was conducted with a likelihood ratio test. RESULTS A total of 5,102 eligible subjects were included in our analysis. After adjusting for confounding factors, every unit increase in the AG was associated with a 22% higher odds of 30-day mortality in patients who underwent CABG [hazard ratio (HR), 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.22, 1.13-1.33] When the AG was converted into a categorical variable, the high AG group had a higher risk of 30-day mortality than the low AG group in the fully adjusted model (HR, 95% CI: 3.99, 1.35-11.76). Tests for trends were statistically significant (p-value < 0.05). Subgroup analysis demonstrated that higher mortality was related to the subgroups of people ≥ 70 years and females. CONCLUSIONS The serum AG was an independent predictor of short-term prognosis in patients who underwent CABG. A high AG was associated with an increased risk of 30-day mortality after CABG.

Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the incremental value of perivascular fat attenuation index (FAI) to identify hemodynamically significant ischemia in severe calcified vessels. METHODS Patients who underwent coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) examination at Chinese PLA General Hospital from 2017 to 2020 and subsequently underwent fractional flow reserve (FFR) examination within 1 month were consecutively included. Several CCTA-derived indices were measured, including the coronary artery calcification score (CACS), lesion length, ≥CAD-RADS 4 proportion, perivascular FAI and CT-FFR. The included vessels were divided into a nonsevere calcification group and a severe calcification group according to the quartile of CACS. FFR ≤ 0.80 represents the presence of hemodynamically significant ischemia. RESULTS A total of 124 patients with 152 vessels were included (age: 61.1 ± 9.2 years; male 64.5%). Significant differences in lesion length (28.4 ± 14.2 vs. 23.1 ± 12.3 mm, P = 0.021), perivascular FAI (-73.0 ± 7.5 vs. -79.0 ± 7.4 HU, P < 0.001) and CT-FFR (0.78 ± 0.06 vs. 0.86 ± 0.04, P < 0.001) were noted between the FFR ≤ 0.80 group (47 vessels) and the FFR > 0.80 group (105 vessels). Furthermore, the perivascular FAI in the FFR ≤ 0.80 group was significantly greater than that in the FFR > 0.80 group (nonsevere calcification: -73.2 ± 7.5 vs. -78.2 ± 7.4 HU, P = 0.002; severe calcification: -72.8 ± 7.7 vs. -82.7 ± 6.3 HU, P < 0.001). In discriminating hemodynamically significant ischemia, the specificity and accuracy of CT-FFR were significantly affected by severe calcification, which demonstrated a significantly declining trend (P = 0.033 and P = 0.010, respectively). The diagnostic performance of CT-FFR in the severe calcification group was lower than that in the nonsevere calcified group. However, perivascular FAI showed good discriminative performance in the severe calcification group. In combination with perivascular FAI, the predictive value of CT-FFR in identifying hemodynamically significant ischemia with severe calcification increased from an AUC of 0.740 to 0.919. CONCLUSION For coronary artery with severe calcification, the diagnostic performance of CT-FFR in discriminating flow-limiting lesions could be greatly impaired. Perivascular FAI represents a potential reliable imaging marker to provide incremental diagnostic value over CT-FFR for identifying hemodynamically significant ischemia with severe calcification.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the incremental value of noncontrast chest computed tomography (CT)-derived parameters, such as coronary artery calcium score (CACS) and epicardial adipose tissue volume (EATv), in predicting subclinical carotid atherosclerosis above traditional risk factors in community-based asymptomatic populations of northern China. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 2195 community-based asymptomatic individuals were enrolled from Jidong Oilfield in accordance with the PERSUADE study. CACS and EATv were measured on noncontrast chest CT. Demographics and ideal cardiovascular health score (ICHS) were collected through questionnaires. We recalculated the ideal cardiovascular health risk score (ICHRS) (ICHRS=14-ICHS) and standardized the parameters as log-CACS and body mass index adjusted EATv (i-EATv). Subclinical carotid atherosclerosis was assessed by Doppler sonography and defined as any prevalence of average carotid intima-media thickness ≥1.00 mm, appearance of carotid plaque, and carotid arterial stenosis in the areas of extracranial carotid arteries on both sides. RESULTS A total of 451 (20.55%) individuals presented subclinical carotid atherosclerosis. CACS and EATv were significantly greater in the subclinical group, while ICHS was lower. In multivariate logistic regression, ICHRS (odds ratio [OR]=1.143, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.080-1.210, P <0.001), log-CACS (OR=1.701, 95% CI: 1.480-1.955, P <0.001), and i-EATv (OR=1.254, 95% CI: 1.173-1.341, P <0.001) were found to be independent risk predictors for subclinical carotid atherosclerosis. In receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis, when combined with male sex and age level, the area under the curve of the ICHRS basic model increased from 0.627 (95% CI: 0.599-0.654) to 0.757 (95% CI: 0.732-0.781) ( P <0.0001). Further adding log-CACS and i-EATv, the area under the curve demonstrated a statistically significant improvement (0.788 [95% CI: 0.765-0.812] vs. 0.757 [95% CI: 0.732-0.781], P <0.0001). CONCLUSION Noncontrast chest CT-derived parameters, including CACS and EATv, could provide significant incremental improvement for predicting subclinical carotid atherosclerosis beyond the conventional risk assessment model based on ICHRS.

Abstract
Background Development in computational fluid dynamics and 3D construction could facilitate the calculation of hemodynamic stresses in coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). However, the agreement between CCTA derived stresses and intravascular ultrasound/intravascular coronary angiography (IVUS/ICA)-derived stresses remains undetermined. Thus, the purpose of this study is to investigate if CCTA can serve as alternative to IVUS/ICA for hemodynamic evaluation. Methods In this retrospective study, 13 patients (14 arteries) with unstable angina who underwent both CCTA and IVUS/ICA at an interval of less than 7 days were consecutively included at the Chinese PLA General Hospital within the year of 2021. Slice-level minimal lumen area (MLA), percent area stenosis, velocity, pressure, Reynolds number, wall shear stress (WSS) and axial plaque stress (APS) were determined by both modalities. The agreement between CCTA and IVUS/ICA was assessed using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), Pearson's correlation coefficient and Bland-Altman analysis. Results CCTA overestimated the degree of area stenosis (50.22%±16.15% vs. 36.41%±19.37%, P=0.004) with the MLA showing no significant difference (5.81±2.24 vs. 6.72±2.04 mm2, P=0.126). No statistical difference was observed in WSS (6.57±6.26 vs. 5.98±5.55 Pa, P=0.420) and APS (16.03±1,159.45 vs. -1.27±890.39 Pa, P=0.691) between CCTA and IVUS. Good correlation was found in velocity (ICC: 0.796, 95% CI: 0.752-0.833), Reynolds number (ICC: 0.810, 95% CI: 0.768-0.844) and WSS (ICC: 0.769, 95% CI: 0.718-0.810), while the ICC of APS was (ICC: 0.341, 95% CI: 0.197-0.458), indicating a relatively poor correlation. Conclusions CCTA can serve as a satisfactory alternative to the reference standard, IVUS/ICA in morphology simulation and hemodynamic stress calculation, especially in the calculation of WSS.

Abstract
The Batman-TCM research platform based on network pharmacology was used to predict the reverse targets of 11 active components of blueberry. The anti-inflammatory target genes of these components were extracted by comparing them with the anti-inflammatory drug target genes in the GeneCards database. GO enrichment and KEGG pathway, as well as protein interaction analysis of these anti-inflammatory target genes, were carried out using the String database. The antiinflammatory component-target-action pathway map of blueberry was constructed using the Cytoscape software. The molecular docking between seven components and two targets was validated using the Autodock-vina program. The results showed that 7 components had anti-inflammatory activity and acted on 84 anti-inflammatory targets. KEGG and GO analysis showed that the main active components of blueberry could inhibit inflammation by inhibiting the production of inflammatory factors and enhancing immunity. Network analysis revealed that the main anti-inflammatory targets of blueberry active components were TNF, ESR1, AGTR1, and IGF1. Based on molecular docking analysis, the main components of blueberry integrate with 2 important targets in inflammatory networks. Collectively, we characterized the anti-inflammatory effect of blueberry by multi-component, multi-target, and multi-pathway. The molecular mechanism of the multi-target effect of blueberry was preliminarily expounded, thereby providing a scientific basis for exploring the material basis and mechanism of the anti- inflammatory action of blueberry. BACKGROUND Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as aspirin, have beneficial effects in the treatment of inflammation but they often have undesired side effects. In contrast, various natural remedies, with their unique natural, safe and effective ingredients, have achieved good effects in the treatment of inflammation and become widely used for anti-inflammatory medication.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the value of clear cell likelihood score (ccLS) in identifying renal oncocytoma (RO) and clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Methods: Retrospective data of pathologically confirmed 43 RO patients [24 men and 19 women, aged 22-77 (54±14) years] between February 2008 and September 2021 and 43 ccRCC patients [30 men and 13 women, aged 29-78 (56±12) years] between May and July 2021 were consecutively included in the department of radiology, Chinese PLA General Hospital. Two radiologists used ccLS to assess each case independently, and disagreements were resolved by consensus. The ability of ccLS to identify RO and ccRCC was examined by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve which identified the best optimal diagnostic cut-off values, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value. Results: The mean tumor diameter was 3.8 cm in RO patients and 3.7 cm in ccRCC patients. Central scar and segmental enhancement inversion (SEI) were more frequently observed in the RO group compared to the ccRCC group [53.5% (23∶43) versus 11.6% (5∶43) and 41.9% (18∶43) versus 7.0% (3∶43), respectively], with statistical differences (P<0.001). The ccLS scores in the RO group ranged from 1 to 4, while 79.0% of the cases were 3. The ccLS scores in the ccRCC group ranged from 2 to 5, while 72% of the cases were 4. The scores of the two groups were statistically different (P<0.001). The ccLS showed the best performance when the threshold was 4 according to the ROC curve. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of ccLS for distinguishing RO from ccRCC were 83.7%, 90.7%, 87.2%, 90.0%, and 84.8%, respectively, and the area under the ROC curve value was 0.879. Conclusion: The ccLS has credible sensitivity and specificity in differentiating renal oncocytoma from clear cell carcinoma, which may be helpful for the preoperative diagnosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evidence supports the efficacy of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA)-based risk scores in cardiovascular risk stratification of patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). We aimed to compare two CCTA-based risk score algorithms, Leiden and Confirm scores, in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and suspected CAD. MATERIALS AND METHODS This single-center prospective cohort study consecutively included 1241 DM patients (54.1% male, 60.2 ± 10.4 years) referred for CCTA for suspected CAD in 2015-2017. Leiden and Confirm scores were calculated and stratified as < 5 (reference), 5-20, and > 20 for Leiden and < 14.3 (reference), 14.3-19.5, and > 19.5 for Confirm. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were defined as the composite outcomes of cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, and unstable angina requiring hospitalization. The Cox model and Kaplan-Meier method were used to evaluate the effect size of the risk scores on MACE. The area under the curve (AUC) at the median follow-up time was also compared between score algorithms. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 31 months (interquartile range, 27.6-37.3 months), 131 of MACE were recorded, including 17 cardiovascular deaths, 28 nonfatal MIs, 64 unstable anginas requiring hospitalization, and 22 strokes. An incremental incidence of MACE was observed in both Leiden and Confirm scores, with an increase in the scores (log-rank p < 0.001). In the multivariable analysis, compared with Leiden score < 5, the hazard ratios for Leiden scores of 5-20 and > 20 were 2.37 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.53-3.69; p < 0.001) and 4.39 (95% CI: 2.40-8.01; p < 0.001), respectively, while the Confirm score did not demonstrate a statistically significant association with the risk of MACE. The Leiden score showed a greater AUC of 0.840 compared to 0.777 for the Confirm score (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION CCTA-based risk score algorithms could be used as reliable cardiovascular risk predictors in patients with DM and suspected CAD, among which the Leiden score outperformed the Confirm score in predicting MACE.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We examined whether auricular acupressure (AA) at four specifically preselected AA points can alleviate knee pain and decrease non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) consumption and its adverse effects for osteoarthritis patients. METHODS Sixty-two patients (more than 40 years) with knee osteoarthritis of Kellgren-Lawrence grades of I or II upon radiographic classification were enrolled in this randomized, sham-controlled prospective study, and divided into two groups (AA group and control group). The AA group received true AA by embedding vaccaria seeds at four specific AA points (knee joint, shenmen, subcortex and sympathesis) ipsilateral to the knee osteoarthritis site, while the control group received four nonacupuncture points on the auricular helix. Visual analog scale (VAS), the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) score, the number of patients who needed celecoxib pills and adverse effects were recorded. RESULTS VAS and WOMAC scores in the AA group were significantly lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05) at Days 3 and 7 postsugery. The VAS and WOMAC score were significantly decreased after the treatment in the AA group compared with that before the treatment (P < 0.05). The use of celebrex is significantly lower in the AA group than in the control group (P < 0.05), no major side effects were observed during the auricular acupressure treatment. CONCLUSION Auricular acupressure plays a role in analgesic effect and can effectively decrease NSAIDs requirements without causing adverse events for the treatment of human knee osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Two homologous branched dodecaynes 1,3,5-{(4-<i>t</i>Bu)[2,3-(RC≡C)<sub>2</sub>]Ph(C≡C-C≡C)}<sub>3</sub>Ph (<b>2a</b>, R = H; <b>2b</b>, R = Ph) were synthesized and characterized in this work. According to steady-state spectroscopy, their electronic absorption and luminescent behaviors were investigated and compared. Simultaneously, as a typical structure of this class of dodecaynes, the molecular configuration of dodecayne <b>2a</b> was depicted by DFT simulation and the maximal absorption were supported by the subsequent TD-DFT calculations. In addition, the electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emission was also investigated. The experiment results showed that π-extended dodecayne <b>2b</b> with more distorted trigonal-planar possessed strong and stable ECL emission, indicating that it has potential application in ECL and luminescence fields.

Abstract
Background Nearly all anti-PD-1 antibodies are of the IgG4 isotype, and thus possess residual FcR effector functions. Such anti-PD-1 antibodies are also associated with immune tolerance and escape due to instability of the CH3 domain and Fc-Fc interaction. In this trial, we examined the efficacy and safety of penpulimab, a novel IgG1 anti-PD-1 antibody that does not bind to the Fc receptor, in patients with refractory or relapsed classical Hodgkin lymphoma (R/R cHL). Methods Adult patients (≥18 years of age) with R/R cHL received 200 mg penpulimab once biweekly until disease progression or unacceptable toxicities for a maximum of 24 months. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) based on the Independent Radiology Review Committee per Lugano 2014 criteria. Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) and immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Results A total of 94 patients were enrolled. The median follow-up was 15.8 months. The ORR was 89.4% (95% CI 80.8%, 95.0%) in the full analysis set (85 patients). Forty (47.1%) patients achieved complete remission, 36 (42.4%) patients achieved partial remission. The 12-month PFS rate was 72.1% (95% CI 60.5%, 80.8%) and the 18-month OS rate was 100%. Totally 97.9% (92/94) of patients experienced at least one TRAE. The rate of grade 3 and above TRAEs was 26.6% (25/94). In addition, 51 (54.3%) patients experienced an irAE, and 4 (4.3%) patients developed grade 3 or above irAEs. No irAE-related death occurred. Conclusions Penpulimab was effective and safe in patients with R/R cHL.

Abstract
Conventional prognostic risk analysis in patients undergoing noninvasive imaging is based upon a limited selection of clinical and imaging findings, whereas machine learning (ML) algorithms include a greater number and complexity of variables. Therefore, this paper aimed to explore the predictive value of integrating coronary plaque information from coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) with ML to predict major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). Patients who underwent CCTA due to suspected coronary artery disease with a 30-month follow-up for MACEs were included. We collected demographic characteristics, cardiovascular risk factors, and information on coronary plaques by analyzing CCTA information (plaque length, plaque composition and coronary artery stenosis of 18 coronary artery segments, coronary dominance, myocardial bridge (MB), and patients with vulnerable plaque) and follow-up information (cardiac death, nonfatal myocardial infarction and unstable angina requiring hospitalization). An ML algorithm was used for survival analysis (CoxBoost). This analysis showed that chest symptoms, the stenosis severity of the proximal anterior descending branch, and the stenosis severity of the middle right coronary artery were among the top three variables in the ML model. After the 22nd month of follow-up, in the testing dataset, ML showed the largest C-index and AUC compared with Cox regression, SIS, SIS score + clinical factors, and clinical factors. The DCA of all the models showed that the net benefit of the ML model was the highest when the treatment threshold probability was between 1% and 9%. Integrating coronary plaque information from CCTA based on ML technology provides a feasible and superior method to assess prognosis in patients with suspected coronary artery disease over an approximately three-year period.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This meta-analysis aims to perform an updated meta-analysis to evaluate myo-inositol (myo-ins) and the classical insulin sensitizer metformin in terms of efficacy and safety for treating women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). MATERIALS AND METHODS A comprehensive literature search was performed using PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, PhRMA Clinical Study Results, Wan Fang, and CNKI databases; the database was searched from inception to June 2021. The random effects model was chosen to synthesize the effect sizes of individual trails. The registration number is CRD42021239786. RESULTS Nine randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and 612 patients were included in the analysis. Compared with metformin, myo-ins might be more effective in lowering triglycerides (TG) levels (SMD -0.49, 95% CI -0.74 to -0.24, p=0.0001, I2 = 0%) and avoiding side effects (RR=0.14, 95% CI 0.08-0.24, p<0.00001, I2 = 2%), while no significant differences were observed in other relevant indexes, such as total testosterone (TT) and sex-hormone binding globulin (SHBG). CONCLUSIONS Compared with metformin, the suitable supplemental dosage of myo-ins may be helpful in lowering levels of TG and avoiding adverse events (AEs).

Abstract
AbstractThe possibility that Arctic sea ice loss weakens mid-latitude westerlies, promoting more severe cold winters, has sparked more than a decade of scientific debate, with apparent support from observations but inconclusive modelling evidence. Here we show that sixteen models contributing to the Polar Amplification Model Intercomparison Project simulate a weakening of mid-latitude westerlies in response to projected Arctic sea ice loss. We develop an emergent constraint based on eddy feedback, which is 1.2 to 3 times too weak in the models, suggesting that the real-world weakening lies towards the higher end of the model simulations. Still, the modelled response to Arctic sea ice loss is weak: the North Atlantic Oscillation response is similar in magnitude and offsets the projected response to increased greenhouse gases, but would only account for around 10% of variations in individual years. We further find that relationships between Arctic sea ice and atmospheric circulation have weakened recently in observations and are no longer inconsistent with those in models.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Zoledronic acid is widely used in patients with osteoporosis, and this meta-analysis aims to explore the influence of zoledronic acid on fracture risk and mortality in patients with osteoporosis or osteopenia. MATERIALS AND METHODS We searched PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane Library for randomized clinical trials comparing zoledronic acid with control intervention (i.e., placebo or nothing) for osteoporosis or osteopenia. The fracture and mortality were estimated using the random-effect model. RESULTS 12 randomized trials were included in this meta-analysis. Compared to control intervention, zoledronic acid was associated with significantly reduced incidence of fracture at the follow-up of 12 months, 24 months, 36 months and 72 months. In addition, zoledronic acid could remarkably reduce mortality at 12 months and 24 months than control intervention but revealed no influence on mortality at 36 months or 72 months. In terms of adverse events, zoledronic acid might result in the increase in serious atrial fibrillation and death from stroke than control intervention. CONCLUSIONS Zoledronic acid is beneficial to reduce the incidence of fracture, while its benefits to reduce the mortality are only observed at the follow-up time of 24 months.

Abstract
Quantitative analysis was performed on the biphasic CT of 40 patients [43-80 (66.1±9.0) years old, including 37 males] with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) to measure the percentage of emphysema (Emph%); the percentage of small airway disease (SAD%) and the square root of the wall area of hypothetical airway with internal perimeter of 10 mm (Pi10). Based on the cluster analysis of Emph%, SAD% and Pi10, the patients were divided into five imaging phenotypes including no obvious imaging abnormality type (n=11), small airway disease-dominant type (n=9), bronchial wall thickening-dominant type (n=8), emphysema-dominant type (n=6) and mixed type (n=6). Patients with the same Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) grade had similar degree of airflow limitation, but the lesion components were not identical. Being different from the traditional imaging classification, even in the cases of mild emphysema, they can be further divided into small airway disease-dominant type and bronchial wall thickening-dominant type according to the difference of airway disease.

Abstract
Epidural catheters are often used in the provision of surgical anaesthesia and analgesia. These catheters need to be removed after a certain period, but difficulties may be encountered during this process. We present a case of difficult epidural catheter removal in an elderly woman who had undergone surgery for reduction and internal fixation of a comminuted intertrochanteric fracture at the left femur under combined spinal epidural anaesthesia. Anaesthesia was satisfactory during the operation; however, initial attempts to remove the catheter at the end of the procedure was met with significant resistance. Normal saline (5 ml) was injected through the catheter without difficulty, suggesting that the catheter was likely trapped and compressed but not obstructed. A nickel/titanium memory alloy suture was used as a guidewire to remove the catheter without damaging it. This case was analysed subsequently, and the management of future problematic removals is discussed herein. This article aims to raise awareness of, and to explore techniques for managing difficult epidural catheter removal.

Abstract
Coronatine (COR) is a non-host specific phytotoxin secreted by Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato that can induce leaf chlorosis and increase the virulence of pathogens during plant-pathogen interactions. Studies have shown that COR can regulate multiple physiological processes in plants, but its involvement in bacterial pathogenesis and plant growth regulation is not well understood. In this study, transcriptome sequencing was carried out on 4-week-old tomato leaves that were either mock-treated or treated with COR. Transcriptome sequencing led to the identification of 6144 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), of which 4361 genes were downregulated and 1783 genes were upregulated upon COR treatment. To obtain functional information on the DEGs, we annotated these genes using GO and KEGG databases. Functional classification analysis showed that the DEGs were primarily involved in photosynthesis, chlorophyll and carotenoid biosynthesis, jasmonic acid (JA) synthesis and phenylpropane metabolism. A total of 23 genes related to chlorophyll biosynthesis had significant changes, of which 22 genes were downregulated and one gene was upregulated, indicating that chlorophyll biosynthesis was inhibited upon COR treatment. A total of 17 photosystem I related genes and 22 photosystem II related genes involving 20 protein subunits were also downregulated. In the JA synthesis pathway, 25 genes were up regulated, and six genes were downregulated in COR treated samples. COR was also involved in the regulation of multiple secondary metabolites. The identified DEGs will help us better understand the virulence effects and physiological functions of COR and provide a theoretical basis for breeding resistance into economically important crops.

Abstract
Objective: Pelvic high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has now become a standard method for evaluating the efficacy of neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). However, this traditional morphological qualitative assessment method based on T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) is not effective in predicting pathological complete remission (pCR). The purpose of this study is to investigate whether combining the magnetic resonance tumor regression grade (mrTRG) with apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) can improve diagnostic value for pCR after preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) of LARC. Methods: This was a diagnostic study. Clinicopathological data of 134 LARC patients who received nCRT and radical surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from January 2017 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients underwent MRI which included T2WI and DWI sequences before and 8 weeks after nCRT. Two radiologists independently drew ROIs on T2WI and DWI to estimate mrTRG stage and calculate the mean ADC value. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) method was applied to evaluate the predict value of mrTRG combined with mean ADC value for pCR. Results: Of 134 LARC patients, 85 were male and 49 were female with median age of 58 (28-82) years. After nCRT, MRI suggested 21 patients (15.7%) had clinical complete remission (cCR), e.g. mrTRG stage 1-2. Postoperative pathology revealed 31 (23.1%) patients had pCR. The evaluations of mrTRG and ADC value by the two readers were highly consistent, and the intra-group correlation coefficients were 0.83 (95% CI: 0.703-0.881) and 0.96 (95% CI: 0.989-0.996), respectively. There was a negative correlation between mrTRG and pCR (r(s)=-0.505, P<0.01), and a positive correlation between mean ADC value and pCR (r(s)=0.693, P<0.01). The ROC curve showed that mrTRG alone had a medium predictive value for pCR, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.832 (95% CI: 0.743-0.921); the mean ADC value had a higher predictive value for pCR, with AUC of 0.906 (95% CI: 0.869-0.962). The predictive value of the combined model of mrTRG and ADC value for pCR was significantly better than that of mrTRG alone (P=0.015), and the AUC was 0.908 (95% CI: 0.849-0.968). Conclusion: Both mrTRG and mean ADC value can be non-invasive methods to predict the efficacy of nCRT for LARC. Combining the mean ADC value with mrTRG can result in better pCR prediction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the association between EAT volume and plaque precise composition and high risk plaque detected by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). METHODS 101 patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) underwent CCTA examination from March to July 2019 were enrolled, including 70 cases acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and 31 cases stable angina pectoris (SAP). Based on CCTA image, atherosclerotic plaque precise compositions were analyzed using dedicated quantitative software. High risk plaque was defined as plaque with more than 2 high risk features (spotty calcium, positive remolding, low attenuation plaque, napkin-ring sign) on CCTA image. The association between EAT volume and plaque composition was assessed as well as the different of correlation between ACS and SAP was analyzed. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to explore whether EAT volume was independent risk factors of high risk plaque (HRP). RESULTS EAT volume in the ACS group was significantly higher than that of the SAP group (143.7 ± 49.8 cm3 vs. 123.3 ± 39.2 cm3, P = 0.046). EAT volume demonstrated a significant positive correlation with total plaque burden (r = 0.298, P = 0.003), noncalcified plaque burden (r = 0.245, P = 0.013), lipid plaque burden (r = 0.250, P = 0.012), and homocysteine (r = 0.413, P ≤ 0.001). In ACS, EAT volume was positively correlated with total plaque burden (r = 0.309, P = 0.009), noncalcified plaque burden (r = 0.242, P = 0.044), and lipid plaque burden (r = 0.240, P = 0.045); however, no correlation was observed in SAP. Patients with HRP have larger EAT volume than those without HRP (169 ± 6.2 cm3 vs. 130.6 ± 5.3 cm3, P = 0.002). After adjustment by traditional risk factors and coronary artery calcium score (CACS), EAT volume was an independent risk predictor of presence of HRP (OR: 1.018 (95% CI: 1.006-1.030), P = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS With the increasing EAT volume, more dangerous plaque composition burdens increase significantly. EAT volume is a risk predictor of HRP independent of convention cardiovascular risk factors and CACS, which supports the potential impact of EAT on progression of coronary atherosclerotic plaque.

Abstract
We report on a precision energy loss measurement and theoretical investigation of 100 keV/u helium ions in a hydrogen-discharge plasma. Collision processes of helium ions with protons, free electrons, and hydrogen atoms are ideally suited for benchmarking plasma stopping-power models. Energy loss results of our experiments are significantly higher than the predictions of traditional effective charge models. We obtained good agreement with our data by solving rate equations, where in addition to the ground state, also excited electronic configurations were considered for the projectile ions. Hence, we demonstrate that excited projectile states, resulting from collisions, leading to capture-, ionization-, and radiative-decay processes, play an important role in the stopping process in plasma.

Abstract
PURPOSE Our and other's studies showed that administration of neuropeptide galanin may mitigate insulin resistance via promoting glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) expression and translocation in rats. The objective of this study is to investigate whether galanin receptor 2 (GAL2-R) in brain mediates the ameliorative effect of galanin on insulin resistance in adipose tissues of type 2 diabetic rats. METHODS In this study galanin, GAL2-R agonist M1145 and GAL2-R antagonist M871 were respectively or cooperatively injected into intracerebroventricles of type 2 diabetic rats once a day for successive fifteen days. Then the plasma and fat tissues of rats were used to estimate the alterations of insulin resistance indexes. RESULTS The central administration of galanin enhanced 2-deoxy-[3H]-D-glucose, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ and adiponectin levels, food intake and body weight, GLUT4 mRNA expression and GLUT4 concentration in plasma membranes, as well as homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance index. Those effects of galanin may be blocked by M817, and imitated by M1145 except for food intake and body weight. CONCLUSION Those results suggest that central GAL2-R mediates the beneficial effects of galanin on insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetic rats. GAL2-R agonist may be taken as a potential antidiabetic agent to treat insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although pre-treatment paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) clone has been reported in a fraction of aplastic anemia (AA) for a long time, its predictive value on response to immunosuppressive therapy (IST) remained debatable. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to elaborate this issue. METHODS The identified articles were retrieved from five English databases PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Medline, the Cochrane Library, and four Chinese databases Weipu, Wangfang, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and SinoMed. We extracted odds ratios (ORs) and the corresponding 95% confidential intervals (CIs) for response to IST in AA patients with pre-treatment PNH clone versus those without from the available studies. RESULTS Twelve studies covering 1787 patients were included this meta-analysis. The pooled ORs indicated that the pre-treatment PNH clone had no impact on 3-month response (pooled OR: 1.323, 95% CI: 0.260-6.735, p = 0.736), 6-month response (OR: 1.668, 95% CI: 0.802-3.470, p = 0.171), and overall response (OR: 2.220, 95% CI: 0.870-5.665, p = 0.095), including overall response in pediatric patients (OR: 1.919, 95% CI: 0.378-9.738, p = 0.432). However, pre-treatment PNH clone had a favorable impact on 12-month response (OR: 2.725, 95% CI: 1.525-4.870, p = 0.001). CONCLUSION Pre-treatment PNH clone is associated with favorable 12-month response to IST in AA, the underlying mechanism needs further exploring.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the current status of the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary cryptococcosis in respiratory medicine and improve the understanding of the clinical characteristics of HIV-negative pulmonary cryptococcosis in China. Methods: A prospective multi-center open cohort study was designed to screen for pulmonary cryptococcosis in the general wards and intensive care units of the Department of Respiratory Diseases in 22 hospitals. The HIV-negative patients with positive cryptococcal etiological diagnosis based on smear culture, antigen detection and histopathology were enrolled in the study. The clinical data of enrolled patients were collected and analyzed. Results: A total of 457 cases of pulmonary cryptococcosis were enrolled, among which 3.28% (15/457) were disseminated infections. The case fatality rate was 0.88% (4/457). The majority of the cases were diagnosed by histopathological examinations (74.40%, 340/457) and cryptococcus antigen detection (37.64%, 172/457). Patients with pulmonary cryptococcosis accounted for 2.04‰ (457/223 748) of the total hospitalized patients in the Department of Respiratory Diseases during the same period, and the ratio was the highest in south and east China. Meanwhile, 70.24% (321/457) of the patients had no underlying diseases, while 87.75% (401/457) were found to have immunocompetent status. Cough and expectoration were the most common clinical symptoms in patients with pulmonary cryptococcosis. However, 25.16% (115/457) of the patients had no clinical symptom or physical signs. In terms of imaging features on pulmonary CT, multiple pulmonary lesions were more common than isolated lesions, and there were more subpleural lesions than perihilar or medial lesions. Morphologically, most of the lesions were middle-sized nodules (1-5 cm) or small-sized nodules (3 mm to 1 cm). The sensitivity of serum cryptococcus antigen test was 71.99% (203/282). Moreover, antigen-positive patients differed from antigen-negative patients in terms of basic immune status, clinical symptoms, imaging features and infection types. Meanwhile, immunocompromised patients differed from immunocompetent patients in terms of clinical symptoms, physical signs, infection-related inflammation indicator levels, imaging features, serum cryptococcus antigen positive rate and prognosis. Conclusions: The majority of cases of HIV-negative pulmonary cryptococcosis in China had no underlying disease or immunocompromised status, and the overrall prognosis was favorable. However, early diagnosis of HIV-negative pulmonary cryptococcosis remains challenging due to the complicated manifestations of the disease.

Abstract
METHODS AND RESULTS 813 DM patients (mean age 58.9 ± 9.9 years, 48.1% male) referred for CCTA due to suspected CAD in 2015-2017 were consecutively included. During a median follow-up of 31.77 months, 50 major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) (6.15%) were experienced, including 2 cardiovascular deaths, 14 nonfatal myocardial infarctions, 27 unstable anginas requiring hospitalization, and 7 strokes. Three groups were defined based on coronary stenosis combined with Leiden score as normal, nonobstructive Leiden < 5, and nonobstructive Leiden ≥ 5. Cox models were used to assess the prognosis of plaque burden within these groups. An incremental incidence of MACE rates was observed. After adjustment for age, gender, and presence of high-risk plaque, the group of Leiden ≥ 5 showed a higher risk than Leiden < 5 (HR: 1.88, 95% CI: 1.03-3.42, p = 0.039). Similar results were observed when segment involvement score (SIS) was used for sensitivity analysis. CONCLUSION Atherosclerotic extent was associated with the prognosis of DM patients with nonobstructive coronary artery disease, highlighting the importance of better risk stratification and management.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of eosionphilic Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (eChRCC), and differences in morphology, immunophenotype and clinical prognosis betweeneChRCC, renal oncocytoma(RO) and classic Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (cChRCC). Methods: The clinicopathologic data of 17 patients diagnosed as eChRCC from the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University (13 cases) and 971 Hospital of PLA Navy (4 cases) from October 2006 to February 2019 were collected. Immunohistochemical analysis was carried out to compare the immunophenotypes between 17 cases with ChRCC, 27 cases with RO and 30 cases with cChRCC. Resuls: Among the 17 patients, seven were males and ten were females, and the age ranged from 40 to 75 years (median 54 years). Clinically, 15 cases of 17 were found accidentally by physical examination. The tumor size ranged from 1.8 cm to 10.0 cm (average 5.7 cm) and the cut surface of 15 cases were solid, one case was solicl and cystic, and one was cystic. Most showed gray to red, and partially soft, gray to yellow appearances. Microscopically, most tumors presented solid growth pattern with vary number of alveolar structures (12 cases). Some were predominately characterized by cystic structure (3 cases), alveolar structure(1 case) and microcapsule structure (1 case). There were boundaries with varying degrees of clarity between tumor cells in 16 cases. The cytoplasm of tumor cells was eosinophilic and the nuclei were small round or irregular with focal perinuclear haloes in 14 cases. Large polygonal cells with light-stained cytoplasm appeared focally in 9 cases, and edematous areas with scarce tumor cells were found in 4 cases. Among 7 cases, 4 cases focally invaded peripheral renal parenchyma, 2 cases invaded adipose tissues outside the renal capsule, and 1 case presented invasion of renal sinus. Immunohistochemically, all cases were moderate to strong positive for EMA and claudin-7. CK7, CD117 and Ksp-cad were highly expressed with the expression rates of 12/17, 15/17, 14/17, respectively. Cyclin D1, AMACR, CD10, S100A1, and RCC were rarely expressed with the expression rates of 4/17, 3/17, 4/17, 1/17 and 1/17, respectively. On the contrary, all cases were negative for vimentin, CAⅨ, HMB45 and Melan A. The Ki-67 proliferation index of the 17 cases was 1%‒5%. Follow-up data were available for all 17 patients from 7 to 154 months. Among them, 15 patients were alive without tumor recurrence or metastasis, one patient died of pulmonary metastasis after 31 months of surgery and one patient died of hepatic metastasis after 38 months of surgery. Conclusion: eChRCC has overlapping morphology and immunophenotype with RO. eChRCC is characterized by solid nest or alveolar structure, distinct border between tumor cells, perinuclear halos and lacking of interstitial looseness and edema. Scattered large polygonal cells with light-stained cytoplasm in tumor tissue play a significant role in the diagnosis of eChRCC. The positive expression of CK7, CD117, claudin-7 and Ksp-cad, and negative expression of cyclin D1, S100A1 are helpful to the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of eChRCC. The prognosis of eChRCC after complete surgical resection is excellent and few cases may have long-term metastasis. There is no significant difference in prognosis between eChRCC and cChRCC, but eChRCC shows better outcome than RO.

Abstract
Anthracycline chemotherapy is commonly used in the treatment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Treatment-related cardiotoxicity (TRC) is defined as when the patient is identified to have one of the following clinical manifestations: Symptomatic heart failure, cardiac death, arrhythmia, infarction, a decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of >15% from baseline or a decrease in LVEF of >10 to <50%. TRC may induce severe cardiac failure or cardiac arrhythmia as the main cause of death. The present study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of the summed rest score (SRS) in gated myocardial perfusion imaging (G-MPI) for the early detection of TRC caused by anthracycline chemotherapy in patients with DLBCL. A total of 36 DLBCL patients were enrolled in the present study, and a series of parameters were compared at baseline and after chemotherapy. According to the occurrence of TRC during the observation period, the patients were divided into two groups, and parameters associated with cardiac function were compared. The SRS in G-MPI and the corrected QT interval in the electrocardiogram were significantly different before and after chemotherapy (P=0.012 and P=0.015, respectively). By comparing parameters associated with cardiac function between the TRC group (n=22) and the no-TRC group (n=14), it was found that only SRS was significantly different (P=0.012). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the SRS level was the only independent predicator for TRC (P=0.018; HR, 6.053; 95% CI, 1.364-26.869). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis identified an optimal SRS cutoff of >1 for predicting TRC after anthracycline chemotherapy (P<0.001). Overall, the G-MPI SRS level was an early indicator for TRC surveillance in patients with DLBCL after anthracycline chemotherapy. The application of G-MPI SRS in clinical practice may contribute to early treatment and a subsequent decrease in mortality caused by such cardiovascular complications.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
This study evaluated whether coronary artery calcium scores (CACS) that were measured with non-gated chest CT predicted perioperative cardiovascular events in patients who were undergoing lower-risk lung cancer surgery.
Method
In this retrospective single center study, we evaluated 3112 consecutive lung cancer patients with non-gated chest CT before low-medium risk surgeries in 2017. We measured CACS and assessed clinical risk factors according to the revised cardiac risk index (RCRI) scores and predictable surgery factors. Perioperative cardiovascular events were defined as cardiac death, acute coronary syndrome, pulmonary edema, atrial and ventricular arrhythmia with hemodynamic compromise, and complete heart block during hospitalization.
Result
83 patients (2.7%) had perioperative cardiac events, 71 (85.5%) of them were atrial fibrillation. Coronary calcification CT findings were seen in 761 (24.5%) patients. CACS were associated with incidence of cardiac events (p<0.001). In the receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis of CACS for prediction of cardiac events, the cutoff value was 1 (sensitivity, 0.60; specificity, 0.75; area under the curve, 0.680). In the multivariate analysis, CACS >1 (OR=1.75, 95% CI: 1.08–2.84, p=0.023), age (OR=1.06, 95% CI: 1.03–1.10, p<0.001), pulmonary function classification (p<0.001) and thoracotomy (OR=3.06, 95% CI: 1.78–5.26, p<0.001) were predictive of cardiovascular complications.
Conclusion
Predicative value of CACS based on non-gated chest CT is high for perioperative cardiovascular risk in lung cancer patients with lower-risk lung surgery. It may be considered as a valuable tool for preoperative risk assessment in these patients without additional testing.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Platelet endothelial aggregation receptor-1 (PEAR1), expressed in endothelium, platelets, and other tissues, is a platelet transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptor involved in platelet aggregation and platelet-platelet contact. The minor allele (A) in intron 1 of the PEAR1 gene (rs12041331, G>A) is associated with an reduced PEAR1 protein expression and suppressed platelet aggregation response toward multiple agonists. But current evidences on the association between PEAR1 rs12041331 polymorphisms and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and/or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are discordant.
Purpose
To characterize and quantify the association between PEAR1 rs12041331 polymorphisms and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with ACS and/or PCI.
Methods
We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis by searching MEDLINE via PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, SinoMed, CNKI, and Wanfang Data before Dec 7, 2019 to identify studies evaluating the association between PEAR1 rs12041331 polymorphisms and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with ACS and/or PCI. The primary outcome was the major adverse cardiovascular outcomes (MACEs) defined by each study. We adopted the Mantel-Haenszel method to calculate the relative risks (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) and the corresponding P values using the random effect model. To assess the effect of ethnicity, we performed the subgroup analyses per ethnic population using the fix effect model.
Results
Among 542 citations identified along with 1 from additional sources, we included 4 studies, which documented 218 MACEs in 8180 patients. The A allele frequency in each study was comparable with that reported in the 1000 Genome Project, but varied among ethnic populations, that is 45.8% in East Asians, 46.5% in American Africans, and 9.2% in Caucasians, adopted from the 1000 Genome Project. A-allele carriers are associated with a 54% increase in MACEs than non-A-carriers (RR, 1.54; 95% CI, 1.10–2.16; P=0.01) with a low but non-significant heterogeneity. Subgroup analyses showed that A-allele carriers tend to have more MACEs than non-A-allele carriers despite of ethnicity, that is 1.32-fold increase in East Asians (RR, 1.32; 95% CI, 0.99–1.77; P=0.06), 2.43-fold in Caucasians (RR, 2.43; 95% CI, 0.99–5.98; P=0.05), and 3.56-fold (RR, 3.56; 95% CI, 1.08–11.70; P=0.04) in American Africans.
Conclusions
Our study indicates that the PEAR1 rs12041331 is prognostic in patients with ACS and/or PCI and treated with DAPT, which might be not caused by the associations with pharmacological response to antiplatelet agents. Further investigations are thus required to address the unrevealing mechanisms of PEAR1, especially on the development of atherosclerosis and the occurrence of acute adverse ischemic events.
