Abstract
AIM To enhance the prediction of mutation status of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) and telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) promoter, which are crucial for glioma prognostication and therapeutic decision-making, via sub-regional radiomics analysis based on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study was conducted on 401 participants with adult-type diffuse gliomas. Employing the K-means algorithm, tumours were clustered into two to four subregions. Sub-regional radiomics features were extracted and selected using the Mann-Whitney U-test, Pearson correlation analysis, and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator, forming the basis for predictive models. The performance of model combinations of different sub-regional features and classifiers (including logistic regression, support vector machines, K-nearest neighbour, light gradient boosting machine, and multilayer perceptron) was evaluated using an external test set. RESULTS The models demonstrated high predictive performance, with area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) values ranging from 0.918 to 0.994 in the training set for IDH mutation prediction and from 0.758 to 0.939 for TERT promoter mutation prediction. In the external test sets, the two-cluster radiomics features and the logistic regression model yielded the highest prediction for IDH mutation, resulting in an AUC of 0.905. Additionally, the most effective predictive performance with an AUC of 0.803 was achieved using the four-cluster radiomics features and the support vector machine model, specifically for TERT promoter mutation prediction. CONCLUSION The present study underscores the potential of sub-regional radiomics analysis in predicting IDH and TERT promoter mutations in glioma patients. These models have the capacity to refine preoperative glioma diagnosis and contribute to personalised therapeutic interventions for patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Gastric cancer often presents in advanced stage with a significant risk for peritoneal dissemination. Staging laparoscopy can be used to detect peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC+) and free cancer cells in peritoneal lavage cytology (CY+). The current study aimed to present the outcomes of staging laparoscopy and the prognosis of PC+ and CY+ in a Swedish high-volume center. MATERIALS AND METHODS A cohort study including all consecutive patients with locally advanced gastric cancer who underwent staging laparoscopy between February 2008 and October 2022. The laparoscopy findings were categorized as PC+, PC-CY+ (positive cytology without peritoneal carcinomatosis) or negative laparoscopy (PC-CY-). The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS) stratified by laparoscopy findings. The secondary endpoint was OS within each laparoscopy finding group stratified by subsequent treatment. RESULTS Among 168 patients who underwent staging laparoscopy, 78 patients (46%) had PC-CY-, 29 patients (17%) had PC-CY+ and 61 patients (36%) had PC+. Decreased OS was observed for both PC-CY+ patients (aHR 2.14, 95% CI 1.13-4.06) and PC+ patients (aHR 5.36, 95% CI 3.21-8.93), compared to PC-CY-. Patients with PC-CY+ who converted to PC-CY- after chemotherapy and underwent tumor resection seemed to have a better prognosis compared to patients with persisting PC-CY+. CONCLUSIONS Staging laparoscopy is an important tool in the staging of locally advanced gastric cancer. Tumor resection for patients with PC-CY+ who convert to PC-CY- may lead to improved survival for these patients.

Abstract
Importance Whether anti-Helicobacter pylori treatment can provide survival benefits for patients with gastric cancer who are diagnosed with H pylori infection is an area with limited research. Objective To explore the potential survival benefits of anti-H pylori treatment after radical gastrectomy in patients with gastric cancer and presurgical confirmation of H pylori infection. Design, Setting, and Participants This retrospective cohort study was conducted using data from patients with gastric cancer treated between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2018, and followed up for outcome ascertainment until May 19, 2021. Propensity score matching was performed in patients treated with or without anti-H pylori treatment. This study involved a single institute in a comprehensive cancer treatment and research center located in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, China. The study included patients with gastric or esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma who underwent curative gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy and tested positive for H pylori infection. Data were analyzed from March to June 2023. Exposure Anti-H pylori treatment, which primarily includes triple therapy regimens consisting of amoxicillin, clarithromycin, and omeprazole for 14 days. Main Outcomes and Measures Clinical outcomes, including overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS), were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank test, and Cox proportional hazards regression model. Subgroup analysis based on crucial clinical information was also conducted. Results All 1293 patients (median [IQR] age, 59 [50-65] years; 860 [66.5%] male) were divided into 2 groups, with 125 patients in the anti-H pylori treatment group and 1168 patients in the non-anti-H pylori treatment group based on whether they received anti-H pylori treatment during the perioperative period and the follow-up. Survival analysis showed that the 5-year OS rates were 94.1% (95% CI, 89.3%-99.2%) in the anti-H pylori group and 73.8% (95% CI, 70.7%-77.0%) in the non-anti-H pylori group, and the hazard ratio (HR) of these 2 groups was 0.33 (95% CI, 0.18-0.60; P < .001). The survival benefit remained after propensity score matching (HR, 0.50; 95% CI, 0.26-0.99; P = .048). Multivariable analysis for OS and DFS further showed the survival benefit of anti-H pylori treatment, with HRs of 0.38 (95% CI, 0.17-0.87; P = .02) and 0.48 (95% CI, 0.28-0.83; P = .008), respectively. Among patients with TNM stage II/III disease who received adjuvant chemotherapy, anti-H pylori treatment was associated with survival benefits (OS: HR, 0.49; 95% CI, 0.24-0.99; P = .046), whereas among those who did not receive adjuvant chemotherapy, anti-H pylori treatment was not associated with survival benefits (OS: HR, 0.29; 95% CI, 0.04-2.08; P = .22). Conclusions and Relevance This cohort study indicates that anti-H pylori treatment may be associated with improved survival in patients with gastric cancer who have H pylori infections. The study reinforces the importance of including H pylori screening and treatment in the surgical treatment of these patients.

Abstract
By directly altering microscopic interactions, pressure provides a powerful tuning knob for the exploration of condensed phases and geophysical phenomena1. The megabar regime represents an interesting frontier, in which recent discoveries include high-temperature superconductors, as well as structural and valence phase transitions2-6. However, at such high pressures, many conventional measurement techniques fail. Here we demonstrate the ability to perform local magnetometry inside a diamond anvil cell with sub-micron spatial resolution at megabar pressures. Our approach uses a shallow layer of nitrogen-vacancy colour centres implanted directly within the anvil7-9; crucially, we choose a crystal cut compatible with the intrinsic symmetries of the nitrogen-vacancy centre to enable functionality at megabar pressures. We apply our technique to characterize a recently discovered hydride superconductor, CeH9 (ref. 10). By performing simultaneous magnetometry and electrical transport measurements, we observe the dual signatures of superconductivity: diamagnetism characteristic of the Meissner effect and a sharp drop of the resistance to near zero. By locally mapping both the diamagnetic response and flux trapping, we directly image the geometry of superconducting regions, showing marked inhomogeneities at the micron scale. Our work brings quantum sensing to the megabar frontier and enables the closed-loop optimization of superhydride materials synthesis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pediatric and young adult brain tumors (PYBT) account for a large share of cancer-related morbidity and mortality among children in the United States, but their etiology is not well understood. Previous research suggests the Appalachian region of Kentucky has high rates of PYBT. This study explored PYBT incidence over 25 years in Kentucky to identify geographic and temporal trends and generate hypotheses for future research. METHODS The Kentucky Cancer Registry contributed data on all PYBT diagnosed among those aged 0-29 during years 1995-2019. Age- and sex-adjusted spatio-temporal scan statistics-one for each type of PYBT, and one for all types-comprised the primary analysis. These results were mapped along with environmental and occupational data. RESULTS Findings indicated that north-central Kentucky and the Appalachian region experienced higher rates of some PYBT. High rates of astrocytomas were clustered in a north-south strip of central Kentucky toward the end of the study period, while high rates of other specified types of intracranial and intraspinal neoplasms were significantly clustered in eastern Kentucky. The area where these clusters overlapped, in north-central Kentucky, had significantly higher rates of PYBT generally. DISCUSSION This study demonstrates north-central Kentucky and the Appalachian region experienced higher PYBT risk than the rest of the state. These regions are home to some of Kentucky's signature industries, which should be examined in further research. Future population-based and individual-level studies of genetic factors are needed to explore how the occupations of parents, as well as prenatal and childhood exposures to pesticides and air pollutants, impact PYBT incidence.

Abstract
Vibrio mimicus is a serious pathogen in aquatic animals, resulting in significant economic losses. The cAMP receptor protein (CRP) often acts as a central regulator in highly pathogenic pathogens. V. mimicus SCCF01 is a highly pathogenic strain isolated from yellow catfish; the crp gene deletion strain (Δcrp) was constructed by natural transformation to determine whether this deletion affects the virulence phenotypes. Their potential molecular connections were revealed by qRT-PCR analysis. Our results showed that the absence of the crp gene resulted in bacterial and colony morphological changes alongside decreases in bacterial growth, hemolytic activity, biofilm formation, enzymatic activity, motility, and cell adhesion. A cell cytotoxicity assay and animal experiments confirmed that crp contributes to V. mimicus pathogenicity, as the LD50 of the Δcrp strain was 73.1-fold lower compared to the WT strain. Moreover, qRT-PCR analysis revealed the inhibition of type II secretion system genes, flagellum genes, adhesion genes, and metalloproteinase genes in the deletion strain. This resulted in the virulence phenotype differences described above. Together, these data demonstrate that the crp gene plays a core regulatory role in V. mimicus virulence and pathogenicity.

Abstract
HtpG, a bacterial homolog of the eukaryotic 90 kDa heat-shock protein (Hsp90), represents the simplest member of the heat shock protein family. While the significance of Hsp90 in fungal and cancer drug resistance has been confirmed, the role of HtpG in bacterial antibiotic resistance remains largely unexplored. This research aims to investigate the impact of the htpG gene on antibiotic resistance in Vibrio mimicus. Through the creation of htpG gene deletion and complementation strains, we have uncovered the essential role of htpG in regulating the structural integrity of the bacterial cell envelope. Our transcriptomics analysis demonstrates that the deletion of htpG increases the sensitivity of V. mimicus to antimicrobial peptides, primarily due to upregulated lipopolysaccharide synthesis, reduced glycerophospholipid content, and weakened efflux pumps activity. Conversely, reduced sensitivity to β-lactam antibiotics in the ΔhtpG strain results from decreased peptidoglycan synthesis and dysregulated peptidoglycan recycling and regulation. Further exploration of specific pathway components is essential for a comprehensive understanding of htpG-mediated resistance mechanisms, aiding in the development of antimicrobial agents. To our knowledge, this is the first effort to explore the relationship between htpG and drug resistance in bacteria.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study investigates the correlation between serum levels of YKL-40, LXRs, PPM1A, and TGF-β1 and airway remodeling and lung function in bronchial asthma patients. METHODS The study involved 80 bronchial asthma patients and 92 healthy individuals. Serum cytokines, airway remodeling, and lung function markers were compared across mild, moderate, and severe asthma cases using high-resolution CT, t-tests, ANOVA, and Pearson correlation analysis. RESULTS Asthmatic patients exhibited higher levels of serum YKL-40, LXRα, LXRβ, TGF-β1, airway wall thickness (T)/outer diameter (D), and WA% of total cross-sectional area compared to controls. Conversely, their serum PPM1A, Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF), and Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 s (FEV1) were lower. Serum YKL-40 and TGF-β1 levels were positively correlated with T/D and WA%, and negatively correlated with PEF and FEV1. PPM1A levels were strongly associated with T/D, WA%, PEF, and FEV1. CONCLUSION The severity of bronchial asthma is associated with increased serum levels of YKL-40, LXRα, LXRβ, and TGF-β1 and decreased PPM1A. The levels of YKL-40, PPM1A, and TGF-β1 have a significant correlation with airway remodeling and lung function.

Abstract
Spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (SDAVFs) are the most common type of spinal vascular malformations (AVMs), constituting approximately 70% of all spinal AVMs. The impact of various clinical and radiologic features on the outcomes in patients with SDAVFs is still controversial. The purpose of the study is to investigate the clinical outcomes and prognostic factors in patients with surgically treated SDAVFs in a single center. A retrospective review was performed for all patients with SDAVFs from January 2013 to September 2021 who underwent surgery at our institution. Medical records and pre- and postoperative imaging data were analyzed. Neurological function status was evaluated by modified Aminoff-Logue Scale (mALS). Student's t-test, Wilcoxon rank sum test, χ2 test and logistic regression were used to find significant prognostic factors. P values < 0.05 were considered significant. One hundred and eighteen patients were ultimately included in the study. By comparing preoperative and postoperative mALS, 69 (58.5%) patients experienced improvement, and 49 (41.5%) patients showed no improvement (worse or unchanged). Wilcoxon rank sum test showed that there was a difference between the improvement group and the no improvement group in preoperative mALS Micturition score and preoperative mALS Defecation score. The logistic regression revealed that preoperative mALS Gait score was associated with clinical improvement after surgery in patients with SDAVFs. Surgical treatment of SDAVFs is a safe and effective procedure and can lead to symptom improvement or stabilization in most patients. Preoperative neurological function status was the only factor associated with clinical prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognosis of diffuse midline glioma (DMG) patients with H3K27M (H3K27M-DMG) alterations is poor; however, a model that encourages accurate prediction of prognosis for such lesions on an individual basis remains elusive. We aimed to construct an H3K27M-DMG survival model based on DeepSurv to predict patient prognosis. METHODS Patients recruited from a single center were used for model training, and patients recruited from another center were used for external validation. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to select features. Four machine learning models were constructed, and the consistency index (C-index) and integrated Brier score (IBS) were calculated. We used the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUC) curve to assess the accuracy of predicting 6-month, 12-month, 18-month and 24-month survival rates. A heatmap of feature importance was used to explain the results of the four models. RESULTS We recruited 113 patients in the training set and 23 patients in the test set. We included tumor size, tumor location, Karnofsky Performance Scale (KPS) score, enhancement, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy for model training. The accuracy of DeepSurv prediction is highest among the four models, with C-indexes of 0.862 and 0.811 in the training and external test sets, respectively. The DeepSurv model had the highest AUC values at 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months, which were 0.970 (0.919-1), 0.950 (0.877-1), 0.939 (0.845-1), and 0.875 (0.690-1), respectively. We designed an interactive interface to more intuitively display the survival probability prediction results provided by the DeepSurv model. CONCLUSION The DeepSurv model outperforms traditional machine learning models in terms of prediction accuracy and robustness, and it can also provide personalized treatment recommendations for patients. The DeepSurv model may provide decision-making assistance for patients in formulating treatment plans in the future.

Abstract
Objective Blood-blister aneurysms (BBAs) of the internal carotid artery (ICA) are challenging lesions with high morbidity and mortality rates. Although research on BBAs is well documented in different populations, the study of BBAs in the Tibetan population is extremely rare. This study aimed to evaluate the characteristics of BBAs and analyze the treatment modalities and long-term outcomes in the Tibetan population in comparison with the Han population. Methods The characteristics of patients with BBAs of the ICA from January 2009 to January 2021 at our institution were reviewed. The features of aneurysms, treatment modalities, complications, and follow-up outcomes were retrospectively analyzed. Results A total of 130 patients (41 Tibetan and 89 Han patients) with BBAs of the ICA who underwent treatment were enrolled. Compared with the Han group, the Tibetan group significantly demonstrated a high ratio of BBAs among ICAs (8.6%, 41/477 vs. 1.6%, 89/5563; p<0.05), a high ratio of vasospasm (34.1%, 14/41 vs. 6.7%, 6/89; p=0.001), a high risk of ischemic events (43.9%, 18/41 vs. 22.5%, 20/89; p<0.05), and a low ratio of good outcomes (modified Rankin Scale, 0-2) at the 1-year follow-up (51.2%, 21/41 vs. 74.2%, 66/89; p<0.05). The multivariate regression model showed that ischemic events significantly contributed to the prediction of outcomes at 1 year. Further analysis revealed that microsurgery and vasospasm were associated with ischemic events. Conclusion In comparison with Han patients, the Tibetan population had a high ratio of BBA occurrence, a high incidence of ischemic events, and a high ratio of poor outcomes. The endovascular approach showed more benefits in BBA patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND H3K27M mutation status significantly affects the prognosis of patients with diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs), but this tumor presents a high risk of pathological acquisition. We aimed to construct a fully automated model for predicting the H3K27M alteration status of DMGs based on deep learning using whole-brain MRI. METHODS DMG patients from West China Hospital of Sichuan University (WCHSU; n = 200) and Chengdu Shangjin Nanfu Hospital (CSNH; n = 35) who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria from February 2016 to April 2022 were enrolled as the training and external test sets, respectively. To adapt the model to the human head MRI scene, we use normal human head MR images to pretrain the model. The classification and tumor segmentation tasks are naturally related, so we conducted cotraining for the two tasks to enable information interaction between them and improve the accuracy of the classification task. RESULTS The average classification accuracies of our model on the training and external test sets was 90.5% and 85.1%, respectively. Ablation experiments showed that pretraining and cotraining could improve the prediction accuracy and generalization performance of the model. In the training and external test sets, the average areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROCs) were 94.18% and 87.64%, and the average areas under the precision-recall curve (AUPRC) were 93.26% and 85.4%. CONCLUSIONS The developed model achieved excellent performance in predicting the H3K27M alteration status in DMGs, and its good reproducibility and generalization were verified in the external dataset.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of CT-guided partial radiofrequency ablation of bilateral responsible cranial nerves in the treatment of Meige syndrome. Methods: The Clinical data of 56 patients with Meige syndrome in the Department of Pain Medicine, Affiliated Hospital of Jiaxing University from June 2019 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed [19 males and 37 females, aged 42-76 (58.6±8.3) years], including 51 cases of blepharospasm, 3 cases of oromandibular dystonia and 2 cases of blepharospasm concomitant with oromandibular dystonia. CT-guided partial radiofrequency ablation of bilateral responsible cranial nerves was performed on different types of Meige syndrome. And the efficacy and complications of the technique were observed. Results: Fifty-one patients with blepharospasm Meige syndrome underwent CT-guided radiofrequency of facial nerve through bilateral stylomastoid foramen punctures, the symptoms of blepharospasm disappeared completely, leaving bilateral mild and moderate facial paralysis symptoms. Three patients with oral-mandibular dystonia underwent CT-guided radiofrequency therapy by bilateral foramen ovale puncture of mandibular branches of trigeminal nerve, masticatory muscle spasm disappeared, the patients had no difficulty opening the mouth, and the skin numbness in bilateral mandibular nerve innervation area was left. Two cases of Meige syndrome with blepharospasm concomitant with oromandibular dystonia were treated by radiofrequency of facial nerve and mandibular branch of trigeminal nerve, and all symptoms disappeared. The patients were followed up for 1-44 months after the operation, and the symptoms of mild and moderate facial paralysis disappeared at (3.2±0.8) months after the operation, but the numbness did not disappear. Three patients with blepharospasm recurred at the 14, 18 and 22 months after the operation, respectively, while the rest cases did not recur. Conclusions: According to different types of Meige syndrome, CT-guided partial radiofrequency ablation of responsible cranial nerves can effectively treat the corresponding type of Meige syndrome. The complications are only mild and moderate facial paralysis which can be recovered, and/or skin numbness in the mandibular region.

Abstract
Silver chalcogenides demonstrate great potential as flexible thermoelectric materials due to their excellent ductility and tunable electrical and thermal transport properties. In this work, we report that the amorphous/crystalline phase ratio and thermoelectric properties of the Ag2SxTe1-x (x = 0.55-0.75) samples can be modified by altering the S content. The room-temperature power factor of the Ag2S0.55Te0.45 sample is 4.9 μW cm-1 K-2, and a higher power factor can be achieved by decreasing the carrier concentration as predicted by the single parabolic band model. The addition of a small amount of excessive Te into Ag2S0.55Te0.45 (Ag2S0.55Te0.45+y) not only enhances the power factor by decreasing the carrier concentration but also reduces the total thermal conductivity due to decreased electronic thermal conductivity. Owing to the effectively optimized carrier concentration, the thermoelectric power factor and dimensionless figure of merit zT of the sample with y = 0.007 reaches, respectively, 6.2 μW cm-1 K-2 and 0.39, while the excellent plastic deformability is well maintained, demonstrating its promising potential as a flexible thermoelectric material at room temperature.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the curative effects of bi-pedicled deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap in repairing large soft tissue defects in the lower limbs. Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted. From February 2016 to June 2020, 16 patients with large soft tissue defects in the lower limbs caused by trauma or after tumor/scar resection were admitted to the Department of Hand Surgery of the Affiliated Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Southwest Medical University, including 9 males and 7 females, aged 25-58 years, with the area of soft tissue defects ranging from 14.0 cm×8.0 cm to 32.0 cm×18.0 cm. Using the abdomen as the donor site, the conjoined abdominal wall flap, i.e., the bi-pedicled DIEP flap (with an area ranging from 15.0 cm×9.0 cm to 32.0 cm×20.0 cm) carrying two sets of the trunk of the deep inferior epigastric artery was designed and resected to repair the wound. The donor site wound was sutured directly. The flap survival and wound healing in the donor and recipient areas were observed after operation. The curative effect was evaluated during the follow-up. At the last follow-up, the American Knee Society score and lower extremity functional scale were used to assess the functions of knee joint and lower limb, respectively. Results: The flaps of 15 patients survived after operation; the flap of one patient had partial infection at the edge after operation but healed after debridement and dressing change. The wounds in the donor and recipient areas of 16 patients all healed well. Follow-up of 16-28 months showed that the recipient area had a good shape and pliable texture, and there was no obvious swollen appearance, hyperpigmentation, or abnormal hair growth; the donor site had linear scar only, with no complications such as abdominal hernia or hyperplastic scar; the functions of knee joint and lower limb were well reconstructed, with no recurrence of tumor. At the last follow-up, among the 4 patients with knee joint injury, 3 cases were excellent and 1 case was good in the evaluation of knee joint function; among the 12 patients with lower limb injury, 9 cases were excellent and 3 cases were good in the evaluation of lower limb function. Conclusions: The donor site of bi-pedicled DIEP flap is concealed with abundant tissue and large area for resection, with which can be used to repair large soft tissue defects in the lower limbs, achieving good short-term results of appearance and function restoration.

Abstract
H3 K27M-mutant diffuse midline glioma (H3 K27M-mt DMG) is a rare, highly invasive tumor with a poor prognosis. The prognostic factors of H3 K27M-mt DMG have not been fully identified, and there is no clinical prediction model for it. This study aimed to develop and validate a prognostic model for predicting the probability of survival in patients with H3 K27M-mt DMG. Patients diagnosed with H3 K27M-mt DMG in the West China Hospital from January 2016 to August 2021 were included. Cox proportional hazard regression was used for survival assessment, with adjustment for known prognostic factors. The final model was established using the patient data of our center as the training cohort and data from other centers for external independent verification. One hundred and five patients were ultimately included in the training cohort, and 43 cases from another institution were used as the validation cohort. The factors influencing survival probability in the prediction model included age, preoperative KPS score, radiotherapy and Ki-67 expression level. The adjusted consistency indices of the Cox regression model in internal bootstrap validation at 6, 12, and 18 months were 0.776, 0.766, and 0.764, respectively. The calibration chart showed high consistency between the predicted and observed results. The discrimination in external verification was 0.785, and the calibration curve showed good calibration ability. We identified the risk factors that affect the prognosis of H3 K27M-mt DMG patients and then established and validated a diagnostic model for predicting the survival probability of these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Lateral C1-C2 spinal punctures are uncommon procedures performed by radiologists for access to CSF and contrast injection when a lumbar approach is contraindicated and an alternate method of access becomes necessary. There are limited opportunities to learn and practice the technique. We aimed to develop and assess the efficacy of a low-cost, reusable cervical spine phantom for training in fluoroscopically guided lateral C1-C2 spinal puncture. MATERIALS AND METHODS The phantom was constructed with a cervical spine model, an outer tube representing the thecal sac, an inner balloon representing the spinal cord, and polyalginate to replicate soft tissue. The total cost of materials was approximately US $70. Workshops were led by neuroradiology faculty experienced in the procedure using the model under fluoroscopy. Survey questions were assessed on a 5-point Likert scale. Participants were given pre- and postsurveys assessing comfort, confidence, and knowledge of steps. RESULTS Twenty-one trainees underwent training sessions. There was significant improvement in comfort level (Δ: 2.00, SD: 1.00, P value < .001); confidence (Δ: 1.52 points, SD: 0.87, P value < .001); and knowledge (Δ: 2.19, SD: 0.93, P value < .001). Eighty-one percent of participants found the model "very helpful" (5/5 on Likert scale), and all participants were "very likely" to recommend this workshop to others. CONCLUSIONS This cervical phantom model is affordable and replicable and demonstrates training utility to prepare residents for performing lateral C1-C2 spinal puncture. This is a rare procedure, so the use of a phantom model before patient encounters is invaluable to resident education and training.

Abstract
A successful deception involves making a decision, acting on it, and evaluating results. Here, we investigated deception in a non-clinical sample (n = 36) with varying autism traits using a coin-toss paradigm of active deception. The subjects were asked to react to the instructions by clicking one of the two boxes that could mislead their opponents, followed by feedback on their success or failure. During this reaction, their EEG activity was recorded, and the results suggested that people with high autistic traits exhibited longer reaction times and lower amplitude of P3 in the decision-making stage compared to individuals with low autistic traits. The feedback evaluation stage in the high autistic trait group elicited lower amplitude of FRN and P3. Overall, these results indicated that people with high autistic traits experienced difficulties in deceiving, which could be related to atypical neural mechanisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Robotic surgery for right-sided colon and rectal cancer has rapidly increased; however, there is limited evidence in the literature of advantages of robotic left colectomy (RLC) for left-sided colon cancer. The purpose of this study was to compare the outcomes of RLC versus laparoscopic left colectomy (LLC) with complete mesocolic excision (CME) for left-sided colon cancer. METHODS Patients who had RLC or LLC with CME for left-sided colon cancer at 5 hospitals in China between January 2014 and April 2022 were included. A one-to-one propensity score matched analysis was performed to decrease confounding. The primary outcome was postoperative complications occurring within 30 days of surgery. Secondary outcomes were disease-free survival, overall survival and the number of harvested lymph nodes. RESULTS A total of 292 patients (187 males; median age 61.0 [20.0-85.0] years) were eligible for this study, and propensity score matching yielded 102 patients in each group. The clinical-pathological characteristics were well-matched between groups. The two groups did not differ in estimated blood loss, conversion to open rate, time to first flatus, reoperation rate, or postoperative length of hospital stay (p > 0.05). RLC was associated with a longer operation time (192.9 ± 53.2 vs. 168.9 ± 52.8 minutes, p=0.001). The incidence of postoperative complications did not differ between the RLC and LLC groups (18.6% vs. 17.6%, p = 0.856). The total number of lymph nodes harvested in the RLC group was higher than that in the LLC group (15.7 ± 8.3 vs. 12.1 ± 5.9, p< 0.001). There were no significant differences in 3-year and 5-year overall survival or 3-year and 5-year disease-free survival. CONCLUSIONS Compared to laparoscopic surgery, RLC with CME for left-sided colon cancer was found to be associated with higher numbers of lymph nodes harvested and similar postoperative complications and long-term survival outcomes.

Abstract
Objective: To estimate the latent period and incubation period of Omicron variant infections and analyze associated factors. Methods: From January 1 to June 30, 2022, 467 infected persons and 335 confirmed cases in five local Omicron variant outbreaks in China were selected as the study subjects. The latent period and incubation period were estimated by using log-normal distribution and gamma distribution models, and the associated factors were analyzed by using the accelerated failure time model (AFT). Results: The median (Q1, Q3) age of 467 Omicron infections including 253 males (54.18%) was 26 (20, 39) years old. There were 132 asymptomatic infections (28.27%) and 335 (71.73%) symptomatic infections. The mean latent period of 467 Omicron infections was 2.65 (95%CI: 2.53-2.78) days, and 98% of infections were positive for nucleic acid detection within 6.37 (95%CI: 5.86-6.82) days after infection. The mean incubation period of 335 symptomatic infections was 3.40 (95%CI: 3.25-3.57) days, and 97% of them developed clinical symptoms within 6.80 (95%CI: 6.34-7.22) days after infection. The results of the AFT model analysis showed that compared with the group aged 18~49 years old, the latent period [exp(β)=1.36 (95%CI: 1.16-1.60), P<0.001] and incubation period [exp(β)=1.24 (95%CI: 1.07-1.45), P=0.006] of infections aged 0~17 year old were also prolonged. The latent period [exp(β)=1.38 (95%CI: 1.17-1.63), P<0.001] and the incubation period [exp(β)=1.26 (95%CI: 1.06-1.48), P=0.007] of infections aged 50 years old and above were also prolonged. Conclusion: The latent period and incubation period of most Omicron infections are within 7 days, and age may be the influencing factor of the latent period and incubation period.

Abstract
The ferritin secreted by mammals has been well documented, with the protein capable of localizing to cell membranes and facilitating the delivery of iron to cells through endocytosis. However, the presence of ferritin in the circulatory fluid of mollusks and its functions remain largely unknown. In this study, we aimed to investigate the potential interacting proteins of ferritin in the ark clam (SbFn) through the use of a pull-down assay. Our findings revealed the presence of an insulin-like growth factor type 1 receptor (IGF-1R) in ark clams, which was capable of binding to SbFn and was named SbIGF-1R. SbIGF-1R was found to be composed of two leucine-rich repeat domains (L domain), a cysteine-rich domain, three fibronectin type III domains, a transmembrane domain, and a tyrosine kinase domain. The ectodomain of SbIGF-1R was observed to form a symmetrical antiparallel homodimer in the shape of the letter 'A', with the fibronectin type III domains serving as its 'legs'. The mRNA expression of SbIGF-1R gene was detected ubiquitously in various tissues of the ark clam, with the highest expression levels found in hemocytes, as determined by qRT-PCR. Using a confocal microscopic and yeast two-hybrid assays, the interaction between SbIGF-1R and SbFn was further verified. The results showed that SbFn co-localized with SbIGF-1R on the cell membrane, and their interaction was expected to occur on the FNIII domains of the SbIGF-1R. In conclusion, our findings highlight the identification of a putative receptor, SbIGF-1R, for SbFn, demonstrating the versatility of IGF-1R in ark clams.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Survival is a key metric of the effectiveness of a health system in managing cancer. We set out to provide a comprehensive examination of worldwide variation and trends in survival from brain tumors in adults, by histology. METHODS We analyzed individual data for adults (15-99 years) diagnosed with a brain tumor (ICD-O-3 topography code C71) during 2000-2014, regardless of tumor behavior. Data underwent a 3-phase quality control as part of CONCORD-3. We estimated net survival for 11 histology groups, using the unbiased nonparametric Pohar Perme estimator. RESULTS The study included 556,237 adults. In 2010-2014, the global range in age-standardized 5-year net survival for the most common sub-types was broad: in the range 20%-38% for diffuse and anaplastic astrocytoma, from 4% to 17% for glioblastoma, and between 32% and 69% for oligodendroglioma. For patients with glioblastoma, the largest gains in survival occurred between 2000-2004 and 2005-2009. These improvements were more noticeable among adults diagnosed aged 40-70 years than among younger adults. CONCLUSIONS To the best of our knowledge, this study provides the largest account to date of global trends in population-based survival for brain tumors by histology in adults. We have highlighted remarkable gains in 5-year survival from glioblastoma since 2005, providing large-scale empirical evidence on the uptake of chemoradiation at population level. Worldwide, survival improvements have been extensive, but some countries still lag behind. Our findings may help clinicians involved in national and international tumor pathway boards to promote initiatives aimed at more extensive implementation of clinical guidelines.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with programmed death-1 (PD-1) antibody in operable, borderline or potentially resectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC) in the real world. Methods: The study retrospectively analyzed 28 patients with operable or potentially resectable locally advanced ESCC patients treated with preoperative chemotherapy combined with PD-1 inhibitor in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School from April 2020 to March 2021. According to the clinical TNM staging system of the 8th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer, there were 1, 15, 10, 1 and 1 case of stage Ⅱ, Ⅲ, ⅣA, ⅣB and unknown stage respectively. The treatment was two cycle of dual drug chemotherapy regimen including taxane plus platinum or fluorouracil combined with PD-1 antibody followed by tumor response assessment and surgery if the patient was eligible for resection. Results: Of the 28 patients, 1, 2, 3 and 4 cycles of chemotherapy combined with PD-1 antibody treatment completed in 1, 21, 5, and 1 patient, respectively. Objective response rate (ORR) was 71.4% (20/28), and disease control rate (DCR) was 100% (28/28). The incidence of adverse events exceeding grade 3 levels was 21.4% (6/28), including 3 neutropenia, 1 leukopenia, 1 thrombocytopenia and 1 immune hepatitis. There was no treatment-related death. Of the 23 patients underwent surgery, R0 resection rate was 87.0% (20/23), 13 patients had down staged to the T1-2N0M0 I stage, the pCR rate was 17.3% (4/23), and the pCR rate of primary tumor was 21.7% (5/23). Four patients received definitive chemoradiotherapy. One patient rejected surgery and other treatment after achieved PR response. Conclusion: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined PD-1 inhibitor is safe and has high efficacy in operable, borderline or potentially resectable locally advanced ESCC, and it is a promising regimen.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of pulsed radiofrequency of dorsal root ganglion combined with ozone injection on acute herpes zoster neuralgia in the neck and upper extremities. Methods: A total of 110 patients with acute phase herpes zoster neuralgia in the neck and upper extremities treated in the Department of Pain of Jiaxing First Hospital from January 2019 to February 2020 were retrospectively included. The patients were divided into two groups according to different treatment modalities: the pulsed radiofrequency group (group A, n=68) and the pulsed radiofrequency combined with ozone injection group (group B, n=42). In group A, there were 40 males and 28 females, aged (71.9±9.9) years, while group B consisted of 23 males and 19 females, aged (66.3±16.9) years. Patients were followed up, and numerical rating scale (NRS) score, dose of adjuvant gabapentin, incidence of clinically significant postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) and adverse effects were recorded preoperatively (T0) and at 1 d (T1), 3 d (T2), 1 week (T3), 1 month (T4), 2 months (T5), and 3 months (T6) postoperatively. Results: The NRS score of patients [M (Q1, Q3)] in group A at time points T0, T1, T2, T3, T4, T5 and T6 was 6 (6, 6), 2 (2, 2), 3 (3, 4), 3 (2, 3), 2 (2, 3), 2 (1, 3) , 1 (0, 2), respectively, while the NRS score at aforementioned time points in group B was 6 (6, 6), 2 (1, 2), 3 (3, 4), 3 (2, 3), 2 (2, 3), 2 (1, 3), 1 (0, 2), respectively. Compared with preoperative NRS scores, NRS scores decreased in both groups at all postoperative time points (all P<0.05). Compared with group A, the NRS scores of group B at time points T3, T4, T5, and T6 decreased more significantly, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). The dose of gabapentin in group A [M (Q1, Q3)] was 0.6 (0.6, 0.6), 0.3 (0.3, 0.6), 0.3 (0.0, 0.3) and 0.0 (0.0, 0.3) mg/d at time points T0, T4, T5, and T6, respectively, and 0.6 (0.6, 0.6), 0.3 (0.2, 0.3), 0.0 (0.0, 0.3) 0.0 (0.0, 0.0) mg/d in patients in group B, respectively. Compared with the preoperative period, the doses of gabapentin taken by patients in both groups reduced significantly at all postoperative time points (all P<0.05). Moreover, compared with group A, the gabapentin dose in group B decreased more significantly at time points T4, T5, and T6, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). The incidence of clinically significant PHN was 25.0% (17/68) and 7.1% (3/42) in groups A and B, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant (P=0.018). No serious adverse effects such as pneumothorax, spinal cord injury and hematoma were observed during the treatment period in both groups. Conclusion: Pulsed radiofrequency of dorsal root ganglion combined with ozone injection is safer and more effective for the treatment of acute phase herpes zoster neuralgia in the neck and upper extremities, and it can reduce the incidence of clinically significant PHN, with high safety profile.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of CT-guided radiofrequency ablation of posterior root of spinal nerve in the treatment of postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). Methods: A total of 102 PHN patients (42 males and 60 females) aged (69.7±9.4) years who underwent CT-guided radiofrequency ablation of posterior root of spinal nerve in the Department of Pain Medicine of the Affiliated Hospital of Jiaxing University from January 2017 to April 2020 were retrospectively included. Patients were followed up, and numerical rating scale (NRS) score, Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI), satisfaction score and complications before surgery (T0) and at 1 d (T1), 3 months (T2), 6 months (T3), 9 months (T4) and 12 months (T5) after surgery were recorded. Results: The NRS score of PHN patients at T0, T1, T2, T3, T4, and T5 [M(Q1, Q3)] was 6(6, 7), 2(2, 3), 3(2, 4), 3(2, 4), 2(1, 4), 2(1, 4), respectively. Likewise, the PSQI score [M(Q1, Q3)] at aforementioned time points was 14(13, 16), 4(3, 6), 6(4, 8), 5(4, 6), 4(2, 8), 4(2, 9), respectively. Compared with T0, the NRS and PSQI scores at all time points from T1 to T5 were lower, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.001). The overall effective rate of surgery at 1 year postoperatively was 71.6% (73/102) with a satisfaction score of 8(5, 9), and the recurrence rate was 14.7% (15/102) with a recurrence time of (7.5±0.8) months. The main postoperative complication was numbness, with an incidence of 86.0% (88/102), and the degree of numbness gradually decreased with time. Conclusion: CT-guided radiofrequency ablation of posterior root of spinal nerve for PHN has a high effective rate and a low recurrence rate, with high safety profile, and may be a feasible surgical option for the treatment of PHN.

Abstract
Global warming causes great thermal stress to macroalgae and those species that can adapt to it are thought to be better able to cope with warmer oceans. Gracilaria bailinae, a macroalgae with high economic and ecological values, can survive through the hot summer in the South China Sea, but the molecular mechanisms underlying its adaptation to high temperatures are unclear. To address this issue, the present study analyzed the growth and transcriptome of G. bailinae after a 7-day exposure to 15°C (LT: low temperature), 25°C (MT: middle temperature), and 35°C (HT: high temperature). Growth analysis showed that the HT group had the highest relative growth rate (RGR = 2.1%) with the maximum photochemical quantum yield of PSII (F v/F m = 0.62) remaining within the normal range. Transcriptome analysis showed more differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the comparison between MT and HT groups than in that between MT and LT, and most of these DEGs tended to be downregulated at higher temperatures. The KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that the DEGs were mainly enriched in the carbohydrate, energy, and lipid metabolisms. In addition, the genes involved in NADPH and ATP synthesis, which are associated with photosynthesis, the Calvin cycle, pyruvate metabolism, and the citrate cycle, were downregulated. Downregulation was also observed in genes that encode enzymes involved in fatty acid desaturation and alpha-linolenic acid metabolism. In summary, G. bailinae regulated the synthesis of NADPH and ATP, which are involved in the above-mentioned processes, to reduce unnecessary energy consumption, and limited the synthesis of enzymes in the metabolism of unsaturated fatty acids and alpha-linolenic acid to adapt to high environmental temperatures. The results of this study improve our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the adaptation of G. bailinae to high temperatures.

Abstract
Macroalgae can accumulate a wide array of metals, leading to their appliance as biomonitors of aquatic environments. With the rapid development of industrial and agricultural-based activities, Cd pollution in aquatic environments is considered an increasingly severe problem worldwide. Although La could alleviate the Cd stress in higher terrestrial plants, the response mechanisms of macroalgae to Cd and La are unknown. Along these lines, in this work, Cd significantly affected the growth, internal cellular structure, photosynthesis, pigment content, antioxidant enzyme activity, and lipid peroxidation level of G. bailiniae. However, the presence of La alleviated these adverse effects from Cd. Furthermore, the response mechanism of G. bailiniae to Cd was attributed to the self-antioxidant ability enhancement, membrane defense, and programmed-cellular regulation. However, the presence of La mediated the biosynthesis of both flavonoids and lipids, which inhibited the Cd accumulation, modulated algal stress signalling networks, renewed the impaired chlorophyll molecule, maintained the activity of the crucial enzyme, enhanced antioxidant ability, and maintained the stabilization of redox homeostasis, alleviating the adverse impact from Cd and improve the growth of G. bailiniae. The experimental results successfully demonstrate a new detoxicant to alleviate Cd stress, promoting a more comprehensive array of macroalgal applications.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is the deadliest disease, with a five-year overall survival rate of just 11%. The pancreatic cancer patients diagnosed with early screening have a median overall survival of nearly ten years, compared with 1.5 years for those not diagnosed with early screening. Therefore, early diagnosis and early treatment of pancreatic cancer are particularly critical. However, as a rare disease, the general screening cost of pancreatic cancer is high, the accuracy of existing tumor markers is not enough, and the efficacy of treatment methods is not exact. In terms of early diagnosis, artificial intelligence technology can quickly locate high-risk groups through medical images, pathological examination, biomarkers, and other aspects, then screening pancreatic cancer lesions early. At the same time, the artificial intelligence algorithm can also be used to predict the survival time, recurrence risk, metastasis, and therapy response which could affect the prognosis. In addition, artificial intelligence is widely used in pancreatic cancer health records, estimating medical imaging parameters, developing computer-aided diagnosis systems, etc. Advances in AI applications for pancreatic cancer will require a concerted effort among clinicians, basic scientists, statisticians, and engineers. Although it has some limitations, it will play an essential role in overcoming pancreatic cancer in the foreseeable future due to its mighty computing power.

Abstract
Background C-reactive protein (CRP) is an important prognostic and predictive factor in advanced renal cell carcinoma (aRCC). We report the association of CRP levels at baseline and early after treatment with efficacy of avelumab plus axitinib or sunitinib from the phase III JAVELIN Renal 101 trial. Patients and methods Patients were categorized into normal (baseline CRP <10 mg/l), normalized (baseline CRP ≥10 mg/l and ≥1 CRP value decreased to <10 mg/l during 6-week treatment), and non-normalized (CRP ≥10 mg/l at baseline and during 6-week treatment) CRP groups. Progression-free survival and best overall response from the second interim analysis and overall survival (OS) from the third interim analysis were assessed. Results In the avelumab plus axitinib and sunitinib arms, respectively, 234, 51, and 108 patients and 232, 36, and 128 patients were categorized into normal, normalized, and non-normalized CRP groups. In respective CRP groups, objective response rates [95% confidence interval (CI)] were 56.0% (49.4% to 62.4%), 66.7% (52.1% to 79.2%), and 45.4% (35.8% to 55.2%) with avelumab plus axitinib and 30.6% (24.7% to 37.0%), 41.7% (25.5% to 59.2%), and 19.5% (13.1% to 27.5%) with sunitinib; complete response rates were 3.8%, 11.8%, and 0.9% and 3.0%, 0%, and 1.6%, respectively. Median progression-free survival (95% CI) was 15.2 months (12.5-21.0 months), not reached (NR) [11.1 months-not estimable (NE)], and 7.0 months (5.6-9.9 months) with avelumab plus axitinib and 11.2 months (8.4-13.9 months), 11.2 months (6.7-13.8 months), and 4.2 months (2.8-5.6 months) with sunitinib; median OS (95% CI) was NR (42.2 months-NE), NR (30.4 months-NE), and 23.0 months (18.4-33.1 months) and NR (39.0 months-NE), 39.8 months (21.7-NE), and 19.1 months (16.3-25.3 months), respectively. Multivariate analyses demonstrated that normalized or non-normalized CRP levels were independent factors for the prediction of objective response rate or OS, respectively, with avelumab plus axitinib. Conclusions In patients with aRCC, CRP levels at baseline and early after treatment may predict efficacy with avelumab plus axitinib. C-reactive protein is an important prognostic and predictive factor in advanced renal cell carcinoma. The association between C-reactive protein levels and the efficacy of avelumab plus axitinib or sunitinib was evaluated. C-reactive protein levels at baseline and early after treatment might predict efficacy with avelumab plus axitinib.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the value of HBV RNA for predicting the therapeutic effect of long-term entecavir (ETV) antiviral therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). METHODS Serum samples were collected from 59 CHB patients treated with ETV for 96 or 108 months. HBV RNA levels, HBV DNA levels, and serological marker (HBeAg) levels were measured at baseline and 3, 6, 9, 12, 36, 72, and 96 (or 108) months during the therapy. RESULTS Although HBV RNA level decreased after 12 and 36 months of ETV antiviral therapy, no significance changes occurred in HBV RNA negative conversion rate (P>0.05). After 72 months of treatment or longer, 33 patients had HBV RNA levels lower than 100 copies/mL, and among them 29 patients had HBV RNA levels lower than the detection limit, and HBV RNA negative conversion rate was statistically significant (P < 0.05). A lower HBV RNA level was associated with a higher HBeAg negative conversion rate (P < 0.05). Age and HBV RNA level were positively correlated with HBeAg negative conversion rate (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Prolonged ETV antiviral therapy results in better clearance of HBV RNA and a higher negative conversion rate in CHB patients. The length of antiviral therapy and age are positively correlated with the negative conversion rate of HBV RNA, and earlier administration of the antiviral treatment achieves better therapeutic effect. Serum HBV RNA level can be used as an indicator for predicting conversion to negative HBeAg in CHB patients receiving ETV therapy.

Abstract
With the rapid development of the seaweed industry in China, the scale and production of its commercial seaweed are ranked among the most significant worldwide. Consequently, the control of algal blooms, especially fouling diatoms, during macroalgae industrialisation is an important issue. Many diatom bloom studies have focused on physical and chemical controls, with limited economic and eco-friendly biological controls reported. In our study, Gracilaria bailiniae fresh thalli and aqueous extract profoundly suppressed Nitzschia closterium growth (50% inhibition concentration of the fourth day (IC50-4 day) was 0.667 × 10-3 g·mL-1 and 3.889 × 10-3 g·mL-1, respectively). The cellular morphology changes of N. closterium exposed to the G. bailiniae aqueous extract were severe atrophies and plasmolysis and dissolution of endocellular structures. To explore more potential allelochemicals to control N. closterium, the intracellular compounds of G. bailiniae were detected and screened. Three organic acids (citrate, hydroxyethanesulfonic acid (HA) and taurine) had allelopathic potential against N. closterium. Our results showed that citrate and HA markedly suppressed N. closterium (IC50-4 day: 1.035 mM and 1.151 mM, respectively); however, taurine poorly suppressed N. closterium (IC50-4 day: 2.500 mM). Therefore, HA is one of the main allelopathic compounds in G. bailiniae. Further, the allelopathic mechanism of HA against the N. closterium photosynthetic system broke its photosynthetic apparatus (oxygen-evolving complex, reaction centres, the effective antenna size and the donor side of photosystem II) and hindered electron transport. The experimental results provide a new and eco-friendly strategy to control diatom blooms.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Anastomotic leak (AL) is a common but severe complication after oesophagectomy. It is unknown how to determine the severity of AL objectively at diagnosis. Determining leak severity may guide treatment decisions and improve future research. This study aimed to identify leak-related prognostic factors for mortality, and to develop a Severity of oEsophageal Anastomotic Leak (SEAL) score.
Methods
This international, retrospective cohort study in 71 centres worldwide included patients with AL after oesophagectomy between 2011 and 2019. The primary endpoint was 90-day mortality. Leak-related prognostic factors were identified after adjusting for confounders and were included in multivariable logistic regression to develop the SEAL score. Four classes of leak severity (mild, moderate, severe, and critical) were defined based on the risk of 90-day mortality, and the score was validated internally.
Results
Some 1509 patients with AL were included and the 90-day mortality rate was 11.7 per cent. Twelve leak-related prognostic factors were included in the SEAL score. The score showed good calibration and discrimination (c-index 0.77, 95 per cent c.i. 0.73 to 0.81). Higher classes of leak severity graded by the SEAL score were associated with a significant increase in duration of ICU stay, healing time, Comprehensive Complication Index score, and Esophagectomy Complications Consensus Group classification.
Conclusion
The SEAL score grades leak severity into four classes by combining 12 leak-related predictors and can be used to the assess severity of AL after oesophagectomy.

Abstract
BackgroundLupus nephritis (LN) confers a poor prognosis, with lack of effective laboratory tests to diagnose and evaluate therapies. We have demonstrated that the RAIL score, based on a set of six urinary biomarkers (NGAL, KIM-1, MCP-1, adiponectin, hemopexin, ceruloplasmin) is sensitive and specific in adult patients with active LN, using renal biopsy as reference.1,2 RAIL has been shown in the pediatric population to be effective in distinguishing inactive vs active LN with no effect from mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) treatment. A comparable study has not been conducted in an adult population.ObjectivesTo assess the ability of RAIL to discriminate patients with active LN vs active non-renal SLE and to evaluate if RAIL performance varies by MMF treatment using urine samples from adult LN patients.MethodsUrine samples were obtained at baseline in two clinical trials: a phase 2 study in adult patients with biopsy-proven active Class III and IV LN (NCT02547922) and a subset of patients from the phase 3 trial in adults with active non-renal SLE (NCT02446912) who had baseline renal BILAG scores C, D, or E. RAIL biomarkers were assayed using single-plex assays. Patient demographics and clinical characteristics were compared between studies. Wilcoxon rank sum test was performed comparing the urinary biomarkers between the two studies and RAIL score was then calculated. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses were conducted assessing the ability for RAIL scores to distinguish patients with renal activity and involvement.ResultsComparison of the patient demographic, clinical characteristics, and biomarkers is in the Table 1. Wilcoxon rank sum test showed the six urinary biomarkers were significantly different between two groups of patients as demonstrated (Table 1). Each of the RAIL biomarker concentrations and the creatinine-adjusted median score were higher in the active LN group than the SLE group (P<0.001). ROC analyses including RAIL score showed an area under the ROC curve of 0.8 (Figure 1), with odds ratio of log-transformed RAIL 2.027 (95% CI [1.587, 2.589]). There were no significant interactions between RAIL and MMF. RAIL remained significant after adjusting for estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), which was not statistically significant.Table 1.Study Demographics and BiomarkersVariablesLN study (N=131)SLE study (N=59)Observed NObserved Median (IQR) or %Observed NObserved Median (IQR) or %DemographicsAge13134 (25, 42)5936 (28, 44)Sex, Female10983.21%5593.22%Race, White5642.75%4576.27%Ethnicity, Hispanic or Latino6146.56%915.25%OCS use, yes12797.69%5796.61%MMF use, yes9572.52%2135.59%Spot UPCR (mg/mg)1282.13 (1.22, 4.04)591.11 (0.55, 2.61)eGFR13091.8 (63.1, 125)5998.06 (81.91, 116.54)Non-renal SLEDAI-2K score1304 (4, 6)5912 (9, 13)Renal SLEDAI-2K score1304 (4, 8)590 (0, 0)BiomarkersNGAL (ng/mL)12833.33 (17.55, 56.7)5819.47 (11.37, 42.05)MCP-1 (pg/mL)128658.24 (271.58, 1049.95)58275.62 (106.09, 481.99)Ceruloplasmin (ng/mL)12893.55 (44.5, 311.25)5847.2 (13.05, 231.25)Adiponectin (ng/mL)12842.45 (16.71, 139.64)589.33 (3.35, 25.51)Hemopexin (ng/mL)1281876.8 (745.07, 4743.4)58513.4 (236.36, 1388.74)KIM-1 (pg/mL)1281673.5 (772.5, 2767)58864 (394, 1480)Creatinine (mg/mL)1280.7 (0.46, 1.3)580.99 (0.46, 1.74)Adult RAIL score (creatinine adjusted)1285.59 (4.31, 6.47)583.57 (2.78, 4.47)eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; IQR, interquartile range; KIM, kidney injury molecule; LN, lupus nephritis; MCP, monocyte chemotactic protein; MMF, mycophenolate mofetil; NGAL, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin; OCS, oral corticosteroid; SLEDAI-2K, SLE Disease Activity Index 2000; UPCR, urine protein/creatinine ratio.ConclusionThe analyses performed suggest that creatinine-corrected RAIL discriminates between active LN and non-renal adult SLE, with RAIL scores not influenced by MMF use.References[1]Brunner HI.

Abstract
As a kind of emerging pollutant, microplastics (MPs) play an important role as a carrier for pollutant migration in the water environment. Carried by the MPs, benzotriazoles, and benzothiazoles (collectively referred to as BTs)1 are ubiquitous water contaminants. In this paper, the adsorption behavior of BTs on polyvinyl chloride (PVC) MPs was first studied systematically to explain the adsorptive mechanisms and the consequential pollution caused by the absorption-desorption process. The studies on kinetics, isotherms, and thermodynamics revealed that the adsorption of BTs on PVC MPs was a multi-rate, heterogeneous multi-layer, and exothermic process, which was affected by external diffusion, intra-particle diffusion, and dynamic equilibrium. The factors including pH, salinity, and particle size also influenced the adsorption process. In the multi-solute system, competitive adsorption would occur between different BTs. The desorption of BTs from PVC MPs was positively associated with the increase of adsorption amount. Based on the results, the adsorption mechanisms of PVC MPs were clarified, involving hydrophobic interaction, electrostatic force, and non-covalent bonds. It was demonstrated that BTs in the water environment could most probably be accumulated and migrated through MPs, and eventually carried into organisms, posing an increased risk to the ecological environment.

Abstract
Parks have become important spaces for supplying cultural ecosystem services (CESs) in cities, and satisfying various needs of different age groups in parks has become a critical issue. Many studies focused on the environmental preferences and behaviours of different age groups in parks. However, results revealing the differences in value demand and acquisition between elderly and youth from a landscape spatial environmental perspective are limited. In this study, the same number of youth and elderly volunteers were recruited, according to the value-labelled photo fed back after their self-driven tour in the Huanhuaxi Urban Forest Park in Chengdu, China. In addition, this study explored the relationship between the perceived CES needs of the youth and elderly and the landscape spatial environment in the urban park ecosystem with the help of the Social Values for Ecosystem Services model. Results showed that, in comparison, to obtain recreation value, playgrounds, pavilions and squares were more important for the elderly, whereas topography, rivers, landscape sketches and trails were more important for the youth. Moreover, in terms of the sense of place, lakes and wetlands were more important for the elderly, whereas landscape sketches and playgrounds were more important for the youth. Furthermore, for the delivery of therapeutic value, squares were more important for the elderly. Spatially, the areas of lakes or wetlands with geographical combinations of landscape sketches and flowers were the high-value spots for supplying multiple CESs in urban parks. Then, squares, rivers, playgrounds and forests were the focus areas where the value identification of the two age groups diverges. This study emphasises the differences in demand and acquisition of cultural added value provided by the environment between the young and the old. The study provides a basis for more targeted land management and landscape planning of urban parks.

Abstract
Background Risankizumab (RZB), an anti-IL-23 p19 inhibitor, was well-tolerated and superior to placebo (PBO) in inducing clinical remission and endoscopic response in patients (pts) with moderate-to-severe Crohn’s disease (CD) in two phase 3 studies at 12 weeks. Aims FORTIFY (NCT03105102), was a 52-week (wk) phase 3 double-blind, re-randomized responder withdrawal study that evaluated the efficacy and safety of continuing RZB as subcutaneous (SC) maintenance therapy versus withdrawal to placebo in pts achieving induction response to RZB Methods Week 12 IV RZB responders were re-randomized 1:1:1 to: RZB SC 360mg (N=141), RZB 180mg (N=157), or PBO (withdrawal from IV RZB; N=164) every 8wks for 52wks. Co-primary endpoints were clinical remission (per CD Activity Index [CDAI] (US); or stool frequency/abdominal pain score [SF/APS] (OUS) and endoscopic response at wk52. Other clinical and endoscopic endpoints, inflammatory biomarkers, RZB serum levels, and safety were assessed over time. Results Rates of clinical remission (CDAI, SF/APS) and clinical response were similar for RZB and PBO groups through wk24, with rates lower for PBO thereafter. At wk52, clinical remission (CDAI, SF/APS) and endoscopic response rates were significantly higher with RZB 360mg than PBO ( P<0.01); RZB 180mg was superior to PBO for clinical remission per CDAI and endoscopic response ( P<0.01). Endoscopic remission and deep remission rates increased over time with 360mg, remained steady with 180mg, and decreased with PBO. Mean fecal calprotectin (FCP) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels decreased with SC RZB, but increased with PBO, over 52wks. Exposure-adjusted event rates (per 100 pts-years) of serious adverse event (AE) were generally similar among groups (360mg, 21.0 E/100PY and 180mg, 19.5 E/100PY vs PBO, 19.3 E/100PY), as were AEs leading to drug discontinuation (4.8 E/100PY and 2.4 E/100PY vs 3.7 E/100PY), and serious infections (6.0 E/100PY and 3.0 E/100PY vs 5.0 E/100PY). Conclusions In pts with moderate-to-severe CD, a robust pharmacodynamic effect on the IL-23 pathway after 12wks RZB IV induction was maintained with RZB SC maintenance therapy. The durability of RZB was demonstrated with high rates of efficacy over the 52-wk study. RZB was superior to PBO for achieving clinical remission and endoscopic response at wk52. Results for the more stringent endpoints (endoscopic remission\deep remission) and persistent improvements in inflammatory biomarkers are consistent with a dose response relationship. Continued RZB SC maintenance treatment was generally safe and well-tolerated. Funding Agencies AbbVie

Abstract
The synergistic effects of strain and crystal phase on the reaction activity of nitrogen molecule dissociation have been studied using density functional theory calculations on Ru(0001) surfaces with multilayered hexagonal close-packed structures. The phase transformation from hexagonal close-packed phase (2H) to face-centered cubic (3C) phase or unconventional phases (4H, DHCP, 6H1, and 6H2) would occur under the uniaxial tensile strain loaded along the c axis. The close-packed surfaces of unconventional crystal phases show an enhanced chemical reactivity for N adsorption due to the upshifted d-band center of Ru. However, the N2 adsorption energy is almost independent of the applied strain and crystal phase. The optimized catalytic activity of Ru(0001) surfaces with the unconventional phases is found for the N2 dissociation through breaking the scaling relationships between the reaction barrier and reaction energy. Our results indicate that the strain-induced phase transformation is an effective method to improve the catalytic activity of noble metal catalysts toward the N2 dissociation reaction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patients with advanced tumors often suffer from spinal metastatic tumor pain. The current drugs are less effective and have side effects. The objective was to explore the efficacy of iodine-125 particle implantation in the treatment of bone metastatic tumor pain. PATIENTS AND METHODS In a retrospective study, a total of 27 patients with bone metastatic tumors who could not receive surgery or radiotherapy and chemotherapy were analyzed. All patients received conventional treatment, with the visual analog scale (VAS) of >3 points, and the daily onset pain of >3 times. All patients received CT-guided iodine-125 particle implantation to treat local painful lesions. VAS scores were recorded before treatment (T0) and 1 day (T1), 7 days (T2), 30 days (T3), 90 days (T4), and 180 days (T5) after treatment. Kaplan-Meier analytical method was used to calculate the local control rate (LCR) and survival rate (SR). RESULTS All patients successfully completed the CT-guided iodine-125 particle implantation. There was no significant difference in VAS scores before and 1 day after surgery. However, compared with pre-operation, the VAS scores decreased at 7, 30, 90, and 180 days after surgery. The postoperative follow-up was 6-38 months, with a median of 16 months; the LCR at 1, 2, and 3 years after the follow-up were 87%, 51%, and 21%, respectively, and the SR was 84%, 43%, and 16%, respectively. Moreover, no serious adverse reactions were observed. CONCLUSIONS Iodine-125 particle implantation was effective in the treatment of bone metastatic tumor pain without serious complications, and hence, can be used clinically.
