Abstract
Vascular injury following spinal cord injury (SCI) can significantly exacerbate secondary SCI and result in neurological dysfunction. Strategies targeting angiogenesis have demonstrated potential in enhancing functional recovery post-SCI. In the context of angiogenesis, the CD146+ and CD271+ subpopulations of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been recognized for their angiogenic capabilities in tissue repair. Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived from MSCs are nanoscale vesicles containing rich bioactive components that play a crucial role in tissue regeneration. However, the precise role of sEVs derived from CD146+CD271+ UCMSCs (CD146+CD271+ UCMSC-sEVs) in SCI remain unclear. In this study, CD146+CD271+ UCMSC-sEVs were non-invasively administered via intranasal delivery, demonstrating a significant capacity to stimulate angiogenesis and improve functional recovery in mice following SCI. Furthermore, in vitro assessments revealed the effective enhancement of migration and tube formation capabilities of the murine brain microvascular endothelial cell line (bEnd.3) by CD146+CD271+UCMSC-sEVs. MicroRNA array analysis confirmed significant enrichment of multiple microRNAs within CD146+CD271+ UCMSC-sEVs. Subsequent in vivo and in vitro experiments demonstrated that CD146+CD271+ UCMSC-sEVs promote enhanced angiogenesis and improved functional recovery mediated by miR-27a-3p. Further mechanistic studies revealed that miR-27a-3p sourced from CD146+CD271+ UCMSC-sEVs enhances migration and tube formation of bEnd.3 cells in vitro by suppressing the expression of Delta Like Canonical Notch Ligand 4 (DLL4), thereby promoting angiogenesis in vivo. Collectively, our results demonstrate that a crucial role of CD146+CD271+ UCMSC-sEVs in inhibiting DLL4 through the transfer of miR-27a-3p, which leads to the promotion of angiogenesis and improved functional recovery after SCI.

Abstract
Cellular senescence assumes pivotal roles in various diseases through the secretion of proinflammatory factors. Despite extensive investigations into vascular senescence associated with aging and degenerative diseases, the molecular mechanisms governing microvascular endothelial cell senescence induced by traumatic stress, particularly its involvement in senescence-induced inflammation, remain insufficiently elucidated. In this study, we present a comprehensive demonstration and characterization of microvascular endothelial cell senescence induced by spinal cord injury (SCI). Lysine demethylase 6A (Kdm6a), commonly known as UTX, emerges as a crucial regulator of cell senescence in injured spinal cord microvascular endothelial cells (SCMECs). Upregulation of UTX induces senescence in SCMECs, leading to an amplified release of proinflammatory factors, specifically the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) components, thereby modulating the inflammatory microenvironment. Conversely, the deletion of UTX in endothelial cells shields SCMECs against senescence, mitigates the release of proinflammatory SASP factors, and promotes neurological functional recovery after SCI. UTX forms an epigenetic regulatory axis by binding to calponin 1 (CNN1), orchestrating trauma-induced SCMECs senescence and SASP secretion, thereby influencing neuroinflammation and neurological functional repair. Furthermore, local delivery of a senolytic drug reduces senescent SCMECs and suppresses proinflammatory SASP secretion, reinstating a local regenerative microenvironment and enhancing functional repair after SCI. In conclusion, targeting the UTX-CNN1 epigenetic axis to prevent trauma-induced SCMECs senescence holds the potential to inhibit SASP secretion, alleviate neuroinflammation, and provide a novel treatment strategy for SCI repair.

Abstract
Objective: To summarize the clinical and prognostic features of children with opsoclonus-myoclonus-ataxia syndrome (OMAS). Methods: A total of 46 patients who met the diagnostic criteria of OMAS in the Department of Neurology, Beijing Children's Hospital from June 2015 to June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Centralized online consultations or telephone visits were conducted between June and August 2023. The data of the children during hospitalization and follow-up were collected, including clinical manifestations, assistant examination, treatment and prognosis. According to the presence or absence of tumor, the patients were divided into two groups. The chi-square test or Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the differences between the two groups. Univariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the factors related to OMAS recurrence and prognosis. Results: There were 46 patients, with 25 males and the onset age of 1.5 (1.2, 2.4) years. Twenty-six (57%) patients were diagnosed with neuroblastoma during the course of the disease, and no patients were categorized into the high-risk group. A total of 36 patients (78%) were followed up for≥6 months, and all of them were treated with first-line therapy with glucocorticoids, gammaglobulin and (or) adrenocorticotrophic hormone. Among the 36 patients, 9 patients (25%) were treated with second-line therapy for ≥3 months, including rituximab or cyclophosphamide, and 17 patients (47%) received chemotherapy related to neuroblastoma. At the follow-up time of 4.2 (2.2, 5.5) years, 10 patients (28%) had relapsed of OMAS. The Mitchell and Pike OMS rating scale score at the final follow-up was 0.5 (0, 2.0). Seven patients (19%) were mildly cognitively behind their peers and 6 patients (17%) were severely behind. Only 1 patient had tumor recurrence during follow-up. The history of vaccination or infection before onset was more common in the non-tumor group than in the tumor group (55%(11/20) vs. 23%(6/26), χ²=4.95, P=0.026). Myoclonus occurred more frequently in the non-tumor group (40%(8/20) vs. 4%(1/26), χ²=7.23, P=0.007) as the onset symptom. Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the tumor group had less recurrence (OR=0.19 (0.04-0.93), P=0.041). The use of second-line therapy or chemotherapy within 6 months of the disease course had a better prognosis (OR=11.64 (1.27-106.72), P=0.030). Conclusions: OMAS in children mostly starts in early childhood, and about half are combined with neuroblastoma. Neuroblastoma in combination with OMAS usually has a low risk classification and good prognosis. When comparing patients with OMAS with and without tumors, the latter have a more common infection or vaccination triggers, and myoclonus, as the onset symptom, is more common. Early addition of second-line therapy is associated with better prognosis in OMAS.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes severe axon damage, usually leading to permanent paraparesis, which still lacks effective regenerative therapy. Recent studies have suggested that exosomes derived from neural stem cells (NSCs) may hold promise as attractive candidates for SCI treatment. Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor positive NSC (EGFR+NSC) is a subpopulation of endogenous NSCs, showing strong regenerative capability in central nervous system disease. In the current study, we isolated exosomes from the EGFR+NSCs (EGFR+NSCs-Exos) and discovered that local delivery of EGFR+NSCs-Exos can effectively promote neurite regrowth in the injury site of spinal cord-injured mice and improve their neurological function recovery. Using the miRNA-seq, we firstly characterized the microRNAs (miRNAs) cargo of EGFR+NSCs-Exos and identified miR-34a-5p which was highly enriched in EGFR+NSCs derived exosomes. We further interpreted that exosomal miR-34a-5p could be transferred to neurons and inhibit the HDAC6 expression by directly binding to its mRNA, contributing to microtubule stabilization and autophagy induction for aiding SCI repair. Overall, our research demonstrated a novel therapeutic approach to improving neurological functional recovery by using exosomes secreted from a subpopulation of endogenous NSCs and providing a precise cell-free treatment strategy for SCI repair.

Abstract
Mitochondria are crucial in sustaining and orchestrating cellular functions. Capitalizing on this, we explored mitochondrial transplantation as an innovative therapeutic strategy for acute spinal cord injury (SCI). In our study, we developed an engineered mitochondrial compound tailored to target macrophages within the SCI region. Sourced from IL-10-induced Mertkhi bone marrow-derived macrophages, we conjugated a peptide sequence, cations-cysteine-alanine-glutamine-lysine (CAQK), with the mitochondria, optimizing its targeting affinity for the injury site. Our data demonstrated that these compounds significantly enhanced macrophage phagocytosis of myelin debris, curtailed lipid buildup, ameliorated mitochondrial dysfunction, and attenuated pro-inflammatory profiles in macrophages, both in vitro and in vivo. The intravenously delivered mitochondrial compounds targeted the SCI epicenter, with macrophages being the primary recipients. Critically, they promoted tissue regeneration and bolstered functional recovery in SCI mice. This study heralds a transformative approach to mitochondrial transplantation in SCI, spotlighting the modulation of macrophage activity, phagocytosis, and phenotype.

Abstract
AIM To predict progesterone receptor (PR) expression of high-grade meningioma using radiomics based on enhanced T1-weighted imaging (WI). MATERIALS AND METHODS There were 157 cases of high-grade meningioma in the study. Seventy-eight cases had negative expression and 79 cases had positive expression. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression were used to select the valuable features. The models were developed by naive Bayes (NB), random forest (RF), and support vector machine (SVM). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and decision curve analysis (DCA) analysis were used to assess the models. RESULTS Nine features were selected as the valuable features using Spearman's analysis and LASSO regression. The RF and NB models achieved the same area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.75, which was higher than that of SVM (0.74). There was no significant difference among the AUCs of the three models (p>0.05). There was a larger net benefit in the RF model than the SVM and NB models across all threshold probabilities in the DCA analysis. CONCLUSION The RF model had good performance in predicting PR expression of high-grade meningioma. PR expression evaluation for high-grade meningioma would be helpful in clinical practice.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) disrupts the blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB), potentially exacerbating nerve damage and emphasizing the criticality of preserving the BSCB integrity during SCI treatment. This study explores an alternative therapeutic approach for SCI by identifying a subpopulation of exosomes with stable BSCB function and achieving a specific targeted delivery. Specific subpopulations of CD146+CD271+ umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UCMSCs) were isolated, from which engineered exosomes (RGD-CD146+CD271+ UCMSC-Exos) with targeted neovascularization function were obtained through gene transfection. In vivo and in vitro experiments were performed to explore the targeting and therapeutic effects of RGD-CD146+CD271+ UCMSC-Exos and the potential mechanisms underlying BSCB stabilization and neural function recovery. The results demonstrated that RGD-CD146+CD271+ UCMSC-Exos exhibited physical and chemical properties similar to those of regular exosomes. Notably, following intranasal administration, RGD-CD146+CD271+ UCMSC-Exos exhibited enhanced aggregation at the SCI center and demonstrated the specific targeting of neovascular endothelial cells. In the SCI model, intranasal administration of RGD-CD146+CD271+ UCMSC-Exos reduced Evans blue dye leakage, increased tight junction protein expression, and improved neurological function recovery. In vitro testing revealed that RGD-CD146+CD271+ UCMSC-Exos treatment significantly reduced the permeability of bEnd.3 cells subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation, thereby restoring the integrity of tight junctions. Moreover, further exploration of the molecular mechanism underlying BSCB stabilization by CD146+CD271+ UCMSC-Exos identified the crucial role of the miR-501-5p/MLCK axis in this process. In conclusion, targeted delivery of RGD-CD146+CD271+ UCMSC-Exos presents a promising and effective treatment option for SCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In previous studies, many imaging analyses have been conducted to explore the changes in the intervertebral disc degeneration (DD), facet joint osteoarthritis (FJOA), L4 inclination angle (L4IA), pelvis-related parameters, lumbar lordosis (LL), and paravertebral muscle (PVM) in the occurrence and development of degenerative spinal diseases via measuring the X-ray, CT, and MRI data of clinical patients. However, few studies have quantitatively investigated the pelvic parameters and the degree of spine degeneration in patients with degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis (DLS) and isthmic lumbar spondylolisthesis (ILS). This study discusses the changes in the imaging parameters of DLS, ILS, and a control group; explores the correlation between different measurement parameters; and discusses their risk factors. METHODS We evaluated 164 patients with single L4-L5 grade 1 level degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis (DLS group), 161 patients with single L4-L5 grade 1 level isthmic lumbar spondylolisthesis (ILS group), and 164 patients with non-specific back pain (control group). The grades of DD and FJOA as well as the percentage of the fat infiltration area (%FIA) of multifidus muscle (MM) at the L4-L5 level were measured via CT and MRI. Lumbar lordosis (LL), pelvic incidence (PI), pelvic tilt (PT), the L4 inclination angle (L4IA), and sacral slope (SS) were measured via X-ray film, and the differences among the DLS group, ILS group, and control group were analyzed. Furthermore, the risk factors related to the incidences of the DLS and ILS groups were discussed. RESULTS First, the pelvis-related parameters of DLS and ILS patients were 51.91 ± 12.23 and 53.28 ± 11.12, respectively, while those of the control group were 40.13 ± 8.72 (p1 < 0.001, p2 < 0.001). Lumbar lordosis (LL) in DLS patients (39.34 ± 8.57) was significantly lower than in the control group (44.40 ± 11.79, p < 0.001). On the contrary, lumbar lordosis (LL) in the ILS group (55.16 ± 12.31) was significantly higher than in the control group (44.40 ± 11.79, p < 0.001). Secondly, the three groups of patients were characterized by significant variations in the L4 inclination angle (L4IA), disc degeneration (DD), facet joint osteoarthritis (FJOA), pelvis-related parameters, and paravertebral muscle (PVM) (p < 0.05). Finally, logistic regression suggests that the L4IA, FJOA, and PT may be risk factors for the occurrence of DLS, and the occurrence of ILS is correlated with the L4IA, FJOA, DD, PT, and LL. CONCLUSIONS Compared with the control group, there are changes in pelvic parameters, the L4IA, LL, DD, FJOA, and PVM in DLS and ILS patients, and the degree is different. The parameters within the same group are related to each other, and DLS and ILS have different risk factors. The mechanical stability of the spine is affected by the parameter and angle changes, which may be of great significance for explaining the cause of spondylolisthesis, evaluating the health of the lumbar spine, and guiding the lifestyles of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lumbar facet joint osteoarthritis (LFJ OA) is a common disease, and there is still a lack of effective disease-modifying therapies. Our aim was to determine the therapeutic effect of hypoxia-treated adipose mesenchymal stem cell (ADSC)-derived exosomes (Hypo-ADSC-Exos) on the protective effect against LFJ OA. METHODS The protective effect of Hypo-ADSC-Exos against LFJ OA was examined in lumbar spinal instability (LSI)-induced LFJ OA models. Spinal pain behavioural assessments and CGRP (Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide positive) immunofluorescence were evaluated. Cartilage degradation and subchondral bone remodelling were assessed by histological methods, immunohistochemistry, synchrotron radiation-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (SR-FTIR), and 3D X-ray microscope scanning. RESULTS Hypoxia enhanced the protective effect of ADSC-Exos on LFJ OA. Specifically, tail vein injection of Hypo-ADSC-Exos protected articular cartilage from degradation, as demonstrated by lower FJ OA scores of articular cartilage and less proteoglycan loss in lumbar facet joint (LFJ) cartilage than in the ADSC-Exo group, and these parameters were significantly improved compared to those in the PBS group. In addition, the levels and distribution of collagen and proteoglycan in LFJ cartilage were increased in the Hypo-ADSC-Exo group compared to the ADSC-Exo or PBS group by SR-FTIR. Furthermore, Hypo-ADSC-Exos normalized uncoupled bone remodelling and aberrant H-type vessel formation in subchondral bone and effectively reduced symptomatic spinal pain caused by LFJ OA in mice compared with those in the ADSC-Exo or PBS group. CONCLUSIONS Our results show that hypoxia is an effective method to improve the therapeutic effect of ADSC-Exos on ameliorating spinal pain and LFJ OA progression.

Abstract
Targeted delivery of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) with low immunogenicity and fewer undesirable side effects are needed for spinal cord injury (SCI) therapy. Here, we show that RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) peptide-decorated CD163+ macrophage-derived sEVs can deliver TGF-β to the neovascular endothelial cells of the injured site and improve neurological function after SCI. CD163+ macrophages are M2 macrophages that express TGF-β and are reported to promote angiogenesis and vascular stabilization in various diseases. Enriched TGF-β EVs were crucial in angiogenesis and tissue repair. However, TGF-β also boosts the formation of fibrous or glial scars, detrimental to neurological recovery. Our results found RGD-modified CD163+ sEVs accumulated in the injured region and were taken up by neovascular endothelial cells. Furthermore, RGD-CD163+ sEVs promoted vascular regeneration and stabilization in vitro and in vivo, resulting in substantial functional recovery post-SCI. These data suggest that RGD-CD163+ sEVs may be a potential strategy for treating SCI.

Abstract
During the immuno-inflammatory pathophysiological process of spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, and ischemic stroke, macrophages play an important role in phagocytizing and clearing degenerated myelin debris. After phagocytizing myelin debris, the biochemical phenotypes related to the biological function of macrophages show vast heterogeneity; however, it is not fully understood. Detecting biochemical changes after myelin debris phagocytosis by macrophages at a single-cell level is helpful to characterize phenotypic and functional heterogeneity. In this study, based on the cell model of myelin debris phagocytosis by macrophages in vitro, the biochemical changes in macrophages were investigated using Synchrotron radiation-based Fourier transform infrared (SR-FTIR) microspectroscopy. Infrared spectrum fluctuations, principal component analysis, and cell-to-cell Euclidean distance statistical analysis of specific spectrum regions revealed dynamic and significant changes in proteins and lipids within macrophages after myelin debris phagocytosis. Thus, SR-FTIR microspectroscopy is a powerful identification toolkit for exploring biochemical phenotype heterogeneity transformation that may be of great importance to providing an evaluation strategy for studying cell functions related to cellular substance distribution and metabolism.

Abstract
Hemorrhage and immune cell infiltration are the main pathological features of spinal cord injury (SCI). Excessive iron deposition is caused by leaking hemosiderin which may over-activate ferroptosis pathways, resulting in lipid peroxidation and mitochondrial dysfunction in cells. Inhibiting ferroptosis after SCI has been shown to aid functional recovery. However, the essential genes involved in cellular ferroptosis following SCI are still unknown. Here we show that Ctsb is a statistical significance gene by collecting multiple transcriptomic profiles and identifying differentially expressed ferroptosis-related genes, which are abundantly expressed in myeloid cells after SCI and widely distributed at the epicenter of the injury. The expression score of ferroptosis, calculated by ferroptosis driver/suppressor genes, was high in macrophages. Furthermore, we discovered that inhibiting cathepsin B (CTSB), specifically with a small-molecule drug, CA-074-methyl ester (CA-074-me), reduced lipid peroxidation and mitochondrial dysfunction in macrophages. We also found that alternatively activated M2-polarized macrophages are more susceptible to hemin-induced ferroptosis. Consequently, CA-074-me could reduce ferroptosis, induce M2 macrophage polarization, and promote the neurological function recovery of mice after SCI. Our study comprehensively analyzed the ferroptosis after SCI from the perspective of multiple transcriptomes and provided a novel molecular target for SCI treatment.

Abstract
Periodontitis is the utmost common chronic oral disease that exhibits intense susceptibility to aging. Aging is characterized by persistent sterile low-grade inflammation, leading to age-related periodontal complications represented by alveolar bone loss. Currently, forkhead transcription factor O1 (FoxO1) is generally believed to have a significant role in body development, senescence, cell viability, and oxidative stress in numerous organs and cells. However, the role of this transcription factor in mediating age-related alveolar bone resorption has not been examined. In this study, FoxO1 deficiency was discovered to have a beneficial correlation with halting the progression of alveolar bone resorption in aged mice. To further investigate the function of FoxO1 in age-related alveolar bone resorption, osteoblastic-specific FoxO1 knockout mice were generated, leading to an amelioration in alveolar bone loss compared to aged-matched wild-type mice, manifested as enhanced osteogenic potential. Mechanistically, we identified enhancement of the NLRP3 inflammasome signaling in FoxO1-deficient osteoblasts in the high dose of reactive oxygen species. Concordant with our study, MCC950, a specific inhibitor of NLRP3 inflammasome, greatly rescued osteoblast differentiation under oxidative stress. Our data shed light on the manifestations of FoxO1 depletion in osteoblasts and propose a possible mechanism for the therapy of age-related alveolar bone loss.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Lumbar facet joint (LFJ) degeneration is one of the main causes of low back pain (LBP). Mechanical stress leads to the exacerbation of LFJ degeneration, but the underlying mechanism remains unknown. This study was intended to investigate the mechanism of LFJ degeneration induced by mechanical stress. METHODS Here, mice primary chondrocytes were used to screen for key microRNAs induced by mechanical overloading. SA-β-gal staining, qRT-PCR, western blot, and histochemical staining were applied to detect chondrocyte senescence in vitro and in vivo. We also used a dual-luciferase report assay to examine the targeting relationship of miRNA-325-3p (miR-325-3p) and Trp53. By using NSC-207895, a p53 activator, we investigated whether miR-325-3p down-regulated trp53 expression to reduce chondrocyte senescence. A mice bipedal standing model was performed to induce LFJ osteoarthritis. Adeno-associated virus (AAV) was intraarticularly injected to evaluate the effect of miR-325-3p on facet joint degeneration. RESULTS We observed chondrocyte senescence both in human LFJ osteoarthritis tissues and mice LFJ after bipedally standing for 10 weeks. Mechanical overloading could promote chondrocyte senescence and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) expression. MicroRNA-array analysis identified that miR-325-3p was obviously decreased after mechanical overloading, which was further validated by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in vivo. Dual-luciferase report assay showed that miR-325-3p directly targeted Trp53 to down-regulated its expression. MiR-325-3p rescued chondrocyte senescence in vitro, however, NSC-207895 reduced this effect by activating the p53/p21 pathway. Intraarticular injection of AAV expressing miR-325-3p decreased chondrocyte senescence and alleviated LFJ degeneration in vivo. CONCLUSION Our findings suggested that mechanical overloading could reduce the expression of miR-325-3p, which in turn activated the p53/p21 pathway to promote chondrocyte senescence and deteriorated LFJ degeneration, which may provide a promising therapeutic strategy for LFJ degeneration.

Abstract
Background The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), which surrounds the brain and spinal cord, is predominantly produced by the choroid plexus of the ventricle. Although CSF-derived extracellular vesicles (CSF-EVs) may be utilized as diagnostic and prognostic indicators for illnesses of the central nervous system (CNS), it is uncertain if CSF-EVs may have an impact on neurological function after spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods Here, we isolated EVs using ultracentrifugation after extracting CSF from Bama miniature pigs. We then combined CSF-EVs with hydrogel and put it on the spinal cord's surface. To determine if CSF-EVs had an impact on mice's neurofunctional recovery, behavioral evaluations were employed. Both in vitro and in vivo, the effect of CSF-EVs on angiogenesis was assessed. We investigated whether CSF-EVs stimulated the PI3K/AKT pathway to alter angiogenesis using the PI3K inhibitor LY294002. Results CSF-EVs were successfully isolated and identified by transmission electron microscope (TEM), nano-tracking analysis (NTA), and western blot. CSF-EVs could be ingested by vascular endothelial cells as proved by in vivo imaging and immunofluorescence. We demonstrated that CSF-EVs derived from pigs with SCI (SCI-EVs) showed a better effect on promoting vascular regeneration as compared to CSF-EVs isolated from pigs receiving laminectomy (Sham-EVs). Behavioral assessments demonstrated that SCI-EVs could dramatically enhance motor and sensory function in mice with SCI. Western blot analysis suggested that SCI-EVs promote angiogenesis by activating PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, and the pro-angiogenetic effect of SCI-EVs was attenuated by the application of the LY294002 (PI3K inhibitor). Conclusion Our study revealed that CSF-EVs could enhance vascular regeneration by activating the PI3K/AKT pathway, hence improving motor function recovery after SCI, which may offer potential novel therapeutic options for acute SCI. The translational potential of this article This study demonstrated the promotion of vascular regeneration and neurological function of CSF-derived exosomes, which may provide a potential therapeutic approach for the treatment of spinal cord injury.

Abstract
PURPOSE Growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenomas (GH-PAs) with a low Knosp grade are typically associated with a good postoperative biochemical remission (BR) rate. However, a proportion of patients do not achieve remission. In this study, we aimed to investigate predictive factors of postoperative remission for lower Knosp GH-PAs. METHODS In this retrospective study, we enrolled 140 patients who were diagnosed with lower Knosp (0-2) GH-PAs and received trans-sphenoidal surgery between December 2016 and June 2021 from the largest pituitary tumor surgery center in southern China. The univariate, binary Logistic regression, and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analyses were employed to determine independent predictors and cutoff values of remission. The postoperative outcome was defined as remission using the 2010 consensus criteria of acromegaly. RESULTS One hundred and thirty six patients (97.1%) achieved gross total resection. The postoperative long-term BR was 68.6%. Empty sella, tumor maximum diameter and postoperative GH levels were independent factors predicting remission. ROC revealed that postoperative 24 h GH ≤ 1.3 ng/mL and ≤ 1.23 ng/mL were valuable predictors for 3-month and long-term remission respectively, and that postoperative 3-month GH ≤ 1.6 ng/mL and tumor maximum diameter ≤ 17 mm were predictors for delayed remission. CONCLUSION Early postoperative GH levels can be used as predictors of remission. However, BR was not associated with preoperative somatostatin analogs therapy or Knosp grade (0-2). For patients without residual tumor or recurrence and whose GH levels are slightly elevated within 1 year after surgery, adjuvant treatments may not be necessary.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the feasibility and surgical approach of removing type D trigeminal schwannoma through nasal cavity and nasal sinus under endoscope. Methods: Eleven patients with trigeminal schwannoma who were treated in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from December 2014 to August 2021 were analyzed retrospectively in this study. There were 7 males and 4 females, aged (47.5±13.5) years (range: 12 to 64 years). The neoplasm involved the pterygopalatine fossa, infratemporal fossa, ethmoidal sinus, sphenoid sinus, cavernous sinus, and middle cranial fossa. The size of tumors were between 1.6 cm×2.0 cm×2.0 cm and 5.7 cm×6.0 cm×6.0 cm. Under general anesthesia, the tumors were resected through the transpterygoid approach in 4 cases, through the prelacrimal recess approach in 4 cases, through the extended prelacrimal recess approach in 2 cases, and through the endoscopic medial maxillectomy approach in 1 case. The nasal endoscopy and imaging examination were conducted to detect whether neoplasm recurred or not, and the main clinical symptoms during follow-up. Results: All the surgical procedures were performed under endonasal endoscope, including Gross total resection in 10 patients. The tumor of a 12-year-old patient was not resected completely due to huge tumor size and limited operation space. One patient was accompanied by two other schwannomas located in the occipital region and the ipsilateral parotid gland region originating from the zygomatic branch of the facial nerve, both of which were removed concurrently. After tumor resection, the dura mater of middle cranial fossa was directly exposed in the nasal sinus in 2 cases, including 1 case accompanied by cerebrospinal fluid leakage which was reconstructed by a free mucosal flap obtained from the middle turbinate, the other case was packed by the autologous fat to protect the dura mater. The operation time was (M(IQR)) 180 (160) minutes (range: 120 to 485 minutes). No complications and deaths were observed. No recurrence was observed in the 10 patients with total tumor resection during a 58 (68) months' (range: 10 to 90 months) follow-up. No obvious change was observed in the facial appearance of all patients during the follow-up. Conclusion: Type D trigeminal schwannoma involving pterygopalatine fossa and infratemporal fossa can be removed safely through purely endoscopic endonasal approach by selecting the appropriate approach according to the size and involvement of the tumor.

Abstract
Chronic spinal cord injury (CSCI) is a catastrophic disease of the central nervous system (CNS), resulting in partial or complete loss of neurological function. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most common form of reversible posttranslational modification at the RNA level. However, the role of m6A modification in CSCI remains unknown. In this study, we established a CSCI model using a water-absorbable polyurethane polymer, with behavioral assessment, electrophysiological analysis, and histochemical staining for validation. Methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (meRIP-seq) and messenger RNA sequencing (mRNA-seq) were jointly explored to compare the differences between CSCI spinal tissue and normal spinal tissue. Furthermore, real-time quantitative reverse transcription pcr (qRT-PCR), western blot analysis, and immunofluorescence staining were used to analyze m6A modification-related proteins. We found that water-absorbable polyurethane polymer simulated well chronic spinal cord compression. Basso mouse scale scores and electrophysiological analysis showed continuous neurological function decline after chronic compression of the spinal cord. meRIP-seq identified 642 differentially modified m6A genes, among which 263 genes were downregulated and 379 genes were upregulated. mRNA-seq showed that 1544 genes were upregulated and 290 genes were downregulated after CSCI. Gene Ontology terms and enriched Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways were also identified. qRT-PCR, western blotting, and immunofluorescence staining showed that Mettl14, Ythdf1, and Ythdf3 were significantly upregulated after CSCI. Our study revealed a comprehensive profile of m6A modifications in CSCI which may act as a valuable key for future research on CSCI.

Abstract
The structure of spinal motion segments and spinal vasculature is complicated. Visualizing the three-dimensional (3D) structure of the spine may provide guidance for spine surgery. However, conventional imaging techniques fail to simultaneously obtain 3D images of soft and hard tissues, and achieving such coimaging states of the spine and its vascular networks remains a challenge. Synchrotron radiation micro-CT (SRμCT) provides a relatively effective and novel method of acquiring detailed 3D information. In this study, specimens of the thoracic spine were obtained from six mice. SRμCT was employed to acquire 3D images of the structure, and histologic staining was performed for comparisons with the SRμCT images. The whole spinal motion segments and the spinal vascular network were simultaneously explored at high resolution. The mean thickness of the cartilaginous end plates (CEPs) and the volume of the intervertebral discs (IVDs) were calculated. The surface of the CEPs and the facet joint cartilage (FJC) were presented as heat maps, which allowed for direct visualization of the thickness distribution. Regional division revealed heterogeneity among the ventral, central, and dorsal parts of the CEPs and between the superior and inferior parts of the facet processes. Moreover, the connections and spatial morphology of the spinal vascular network were visualized. Our study indicates that SRμCT imaging is an ideal method for high-resolution visualization and 3D morphometric analysis of the whole spinal motion segments and spinal vascular network.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a catastrophic event mainly involving neuronal apoptosis and axonal disruption, and it causes severe motor and sensory deficits. Due to the complicated pathological process of SCI, there is currently still a lack of effective treatment for SCI. Microglia, a type of immune cell residing in the central nervous system (CNS), need to respond to various stimuli to protect neuronal cells from death. It was also reported that microRNAs (miRNAs) had been identified in microglia-derived exosomes that can be taken up by neurons. However, the kinds of miRNAs in exosome cargo derived from microglia and the underlying mechanisms by which they contribute to neuroprotection after SCI remain unknown. In the present study, a contusive SCI mouse model and in vitro experiments were applied to explore the therapeutic effects of microglia-derived exosomes on neuronal apoptosis, axonal regrowth, and functional recovery after SCI. Then, miRNA analysis, rescue experiments, and luciferase activity assays for target genes were performed to confirm the role and underlying mechanism of microglia-derived exosomal miRNAs in SCI. We revealed that microglia-derived exosomes could promote neurological functional recovery by suppressing neuronal apoptosis and promoting axonal regrowth both in vivo and in vitro. MicroRNA-151-3p is abundant in microglia-derived exosomes and is necessary for mediating the neuroprotective effect of microglia-derived exosomes for SCI repair. Luciferase activity assays reported that P53 was the target gene for miR-151-3p and that p53/p21/CDK1 signaling cascades may be involved in the modulation of neuronal apoptosis and axonal regrowth by microglia-derived exosomal microRNA-151-3p. In conclusion, our data demonstrated that microglia-derived exosomes (microglia-Exos) might be a promising, cell-free approach for the treatment of SCI. MicroRNA-151-3p is the key molecule in microglia-derived exosomes that mediates the neuroprotective effects of SCI treatments.

Abstract
Macrophage phagocytosis contributes predominantly to processing central nervous system (CNS) debris and further facilitates neurological function restoration after CNS injury. The aims of this study were to evaluate the effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC)-derived exosomes (BMSC-Exos) on the phagocytic capability of macrophages to clear myelin debris and to investigate the underlying molecular mechanism during the spinal cord injury (SCI) process. This work reveals that monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) infiltrating into the SCI site could efficiently engulf myelin debris and process phagocytic material. However, the phagocytic ability of macrophages to clear tissue debris is compromised after SCI. The administration of BMSC-Exos as an approach for SCI treatment could rescue macrophage normal function by improving the phagocytic capability of myelin debris internalization, which is beneficial for SCI repair, as evidenced by better axon regrowth and increased hindlimb locomotor functional recovery in a rodent model. Examination of macrophage treatment with BMSC-Exos revealed that BMSC-Exos could promote the capacity of macrophages to phagocytose myelin debris in vitro and could create a regenerative microenvironment for axon regrowth. In addition, we confirmed that BMSC-Exo treatment resulted in improved phagocytosis of engulfed myelin debris by promoting the expression of macrophage receptor with collagenous structure (MARCO) in macrophages. The inhibition of MARCO with PolyG (a MARCO antagonist) impaired the effect of BMSC-Exos on the phagocytic capacity of macrophages and resulted in compromised myelin clearance at the lesion site, leading to further tissue damage and impaired functional healing after SCI. In conclusion, these data indicated that targeting the phagocytic ability of macrophages may have therapeutic potential for the improvement in functional healing after SCI. The administration of BMSC-Exos as a cell-free immune therapy strategy has wide application prospects for SCI treatment.

Abstract
The spinal cord injury is a site of severe central nervous system (CNS) trauma and disease without an effective treatment strategy. Neurovascular injuries occur spontaneously following spinal cord injury (SCI), leading to irreversible loss of motor and sensory function. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC)-derived exosome-educated macrophages (EEM) have great characteristics as therapeutic candidates for SCI treatment. It remains unknown whether EEM could promote functional healing after SCI. The effect of EEM on neurovascular regeneration after SCI needs to be further explored. We generated M2-like macrophages using exosomes isolated from BMSCs, which were known as EEM, and directly used these EEM for SCI treatment. We aimed to investigate the effects of EEM using a spinal cord contusive injury mouse model in vivo combined with an in vitro cell functional assay and compared the results to those of a normal spinal cord without any biological intervention, or PBS treatment or macrophage alone (MQ). Neurological function measurements and histochemical tests were performed to evaluate the effect of EEM on angiogenesis and axon regrowth. In the current study, we found that treatment with EEM effectively promoted the angiogenic activity of HUVECs and axonal growth in cortical neurons. Furthermore, exogenous administration of EEM directly into the injured spinal cord could promote neurological functional healing by modulating angiogenesis and axon growth. EEM treatment could provide a novel strategy to promote healing after SCI and various other neurovascular injury disorders.

Abstract
AIMS Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) has been utilized for diagnosing infectious diseases. It is a culture-free and hypothesis-free nucleic acid test for diagnosing all pathogens with known genomic sequences, including bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites. While this technique greatly expands the clinical capacity of pathogen detection, it is a second-line choice due to lengthy procedures and microbial contaminations introduced from wet-lab processes. As a result, we aimed to reduce the hands-on time and exogenous contaminations in mNGS. METHODS AND RESULTS We developed a device (NGSmaster) that automates the wet-lab workflow, including nucleic acid extraction, PCR-free library preparation and purification. It shortens the sample-to-results time to 16 and 18·5 h for DNA and RNA sequencing respectively. We used it to test cultured bacteria for validation of the workflow and bioinformatic pipeline. We also compared PCR-free with PCR-based library prep and discovered no differences in microbial reads. Moreover we analysed results by automation and manual testing and found that automation can significantly reduce microbial contaminations. Finally, we tested artificial and clinical samples and showed mNGS results were concordant with traditional culture. CONCLUSION NGSmaster can fulfil the microbiological diagnostic needs in a variety of sample types. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This study opens up an opportunity of performing in-house mNGS to reduce turnaround time and workload, instead of transferring potentially contagious specimen to a third-party laboratory.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Statins remain a standard treatment for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients. We aimed to determine the association between different dosages of in-hospital statins and the prognoses among patients receiving percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods
NSTE-ACS patients were retrospectively enrolled from January 2010 to December 2014 from five centres in China. Patients receiving either atorvastatin or rosuvastatin during their hospitalizations were included. All the patients were categorized into high-dose statin group (40mg atorvastatin or 20mg rosuvastatin) or low-dose statin group (20mg atorvastatin or 10mg rosuvastatin). In-hospital events and long-term all-cause death was recorded.
Results
Of the 7,008 patients included in the study, 5,248 received low-dose intensive statin (mean age: 64.28±10.39; female: 25.2%), and 1,760 received high-dose intensive statin (mean age: 63.68±10.59; female: 23.1%). There was no significant difference in in-hospital all-cause death between the two groups (adjusted OR, 1.27; P=0.665). All-cause death was similar between the two groups during the long-term follow-up period (30-day: adjusted HR, 1.28; P=0.571; 3-year: adjusted HR, 0.83; P=0.082). However, there was a robust association between the high-dose statin and the reduction in in-hospital dialysis (adjusted OR, 0.11; P=0.030).
Conclusions
The in-hospital high-dose intensive statin is not associated with lower risks of in-hospital or follow-up all-cause death in NSTE-ACS patients undergoing PCI. Considering the robust beneficial effect of in-hospital dialysis, an individualized high-dose intensive statin can be rational in specified populations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the clinical efficacy of endoscopic L5/S1 discectomy through interlaminar approach for the patient with the high iliac crest and migrated disc herniation. METHODS A retrospective study of 31 patients with the high iliac crest and migrated disc herniation at the L5/S1 level was conducted in our hospital. All of the consented patients accepted endoscopic L5/S1 discectomy through interlaminar approach from January 2016 to January 2019. Preoperative, postoperative, and follow-up Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) were used to assess the pain and waist function of patients. The clinical efficacy was evaluated according to Macnab criteria. RESULTS All the patients were followed up for 12-48 (29.68±9.64) months. The operation time was (79.16±22.43) min. The times of fluoroscopy were 2.71±0.78. The VAS of low back and leg pain was 7.09±0.94 before the surgery, 1.45±1.23 at 3 months after the surgery, and 1.27±0.92 at the last follow-up. The VAS after the surgery and at the last follow-up was significantly lower than that before the operation (P<0.05). The ODI was 56.03±6.64 before the surgery, 16.45±6.83 at 3 months after the surgery, and 13.03±4.96 at the last follow-up. The ODI was significantly lower after the surgery and at the last follow-up compared with that before the surgery (P<0.05). The Macnab score at the last follow-up was graded as excellent in 26 cases, good in 3 cases, fair in 2 cases, and the percentage of excellent and good were 93.5%. Part of the nucleus pulposus remained in 2 cases after the operation, one case underwent endoscopic revision and one case received conservative treatment; postoperative pain due to nerve root irritation was in one case and relieved by conservative treatment. CONCLUSIONS The endoscopic L5/S1 discectomy through interlaminar approach is a relatively safe and effective treatment for the patient with the high iliac crest and migrated disc herniation, which can reduce X-ray examinations and complications, and achieve satisfactory clinical outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess whether vaginal secretions and breast milk of women with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) contain severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). DESIGN Single centre cohort study. SETTING Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University, Wuhan, Hubei province, China. POPULATION We studied 13 SARS-CoV-2-infected pregnant women diagnosed between 31 January and 9 March 2020. METHODS We collected clinical data, vaginal secretions, stool specimens and breast milk from SARS-CoV-2-infected women during different stages of pregnancy and collected neonatal throat and anal swabs. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES We assessed viral presence in different biosamples. RESULTS Of the 13 women with COVID-19, five were in their first trimester, three in their second trimester and five in their third trimester. Of the five women in their third trimester who gave birth, all delivered live newborns. Among these five deliveries, the primary adverse perinatal outcomes included premature delivery (n = 2) and neonatal pneumonia (n = 2). One of nine stool samples was positive; all 13 vaginal secretion samples, and five throat swabs and four anal swabs collected from neonates, were negative for the novel coronavirus. However, one of three samples of breast milk was positive by viral nucleic acid testing. CONCLUSIONS In this case series of 13 pregnant women with COVID-19, we observed negative viral test results in vaginal secretion specimens, suggesting that a vaginal delivery may be a safe delivery option. However, additional research is urgently needed to examine breast milk and the potential risk for viral contamination. TWEETABLE ABSTRACT New evidence for the safety of vaginal delivery and breastfeeding in pregnant women infected with SARS-CoV-2, positive viral result in a breast-milk sample.

Abstract
The regeneration of the blood vessel system post spinal cord injury (SCI) is essential for the repair of neurological function. As a significant means to regulate gene expression, epigenetic regulation of angiogenesis in SCI is still largely unknown. Here, we found that Ubiquitously Transcribed tetratricopeptide repeat on chromosome X (UTX), the histone H3K27 demethylase, increased significantly in endothelial cells post SCI. Knockdown of UTX can promote the migration and tube formation of endothelial cells. The specific knockout of UTX in endothelial cells enhanced angiogenesis post SCI accompanied with improved neurological function. In addition, we found regulation of UTX expression can change the level of microRNA 24 (miR-24) in vitro. The physical binding of UTX to the promotor of miR-24 was indicated by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay. Meanwhile, methylation sequencing of endothelial cells demonstrated that UTX could significantly decrease the level of methylation in the miR-24 promotor. Furthermore, miR-24 significantly abolished the promoting effect of UTX deletion on angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo. Finally, we predicted the potential target mRNAs of miR-24 related to angiogenesis. We indicate that UTX deletion can epigenetically promote the vascular regeneration and functional recovery post SCI by forming a regulatory network with miR-24.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics of newly treated high-risk group neuroblastoma (NB) patients with bone marrow metastasis and to explore the prognostic factors. Methods: The clinical features (sex, age, stage, risk group, pathological type, metastatic site, etc.) of 203 newly treated high-risk NB patients with bone marrow metastasis admitted to Hematology Oncology Center, Beijing Children's Hospital from January 2007 to December 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 118 males (58.1%) and 85 females (41.9%). Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis and Cox regression was used to analyze the prognostic factors. Results: The age at onset of the 203 patients was 41 months (9-147 months). The metastatic sites at diagnosis were as follows: bone in 195 cases (96.1%), distant lymph nodes in 104 cases (51.2%), skull and endomeninx in 61 cases (30.0%), orbit in 30 cases (14.8%), pleura in 16 cases (7.9%), liver in 13 cases(6.4%), canalis spinalis in 13 cases (6.4%), other sites in 11 cases (5.4%) and skin and soft tissue in 10 cases (4.9%). In all, 194 cases were enrolled for prognostic analysis. The follow-up time was 36 months (1 day-138 months) , and the 5-years event free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) were 36.1% and 39.7%, respectively. A total of 118 patients (60.8%) had events (first relapse or death) with the time to event occurrence was 15 months (1 day-72 months), whereas 112 patients (57.7%) died with the event occurrence to death time was 3 months (1 day-21 months). There was no significant difference in 5-years OS between radiotherapy group and non-radiotherapy group (42.3% vs. 38.3%, χ(2)=3.671, P=0.055). The 5-years OS in transplantation group was significantly better than the non-transplantation group (44.3% vs. 35.5%, χ(2)=8.878, P=0.003), and the radiotherapy combined transplantation group also had a better 5-years OS rate than the non-radiotherapy combined transplantation group (45.8% vs. 37.3%, χ(2)=5.945, P=0.015). Univariate survival analysis showed lactate dehydrogenase ≥ 1 500 U/L, the amplification of MYCN, the metastatic sites of orbit, canalis spinalis and pleura were associated with poor prognosis of newly diagnosed high-risk NB patients (χ(2)=21.064, 13.601, 3.998, 6.183, 15.307, all P<0.05). The amplification of MYCN and the metastatic sites of pleura were risk factors for prognosis of newly diagnosed high-risk NB patients by Cox regression models (HR=1.896,1.100, 95%CI: 1.113-3.231, 1.020-1.187, both P<0.05). Conclusions: The prognosis is unfavorable in high-risk group NB patients with BM metastasis. Radiotherapy combined with transplantation can further improve the prognosis of these patients. The amplification of MYCN and the metastatic sites of pleura were the poor prognostic factors for high-risk NB patients with bone marrow metastasis.

Abstract
Objective: To summarize the clinical characteristics, treatment response and prognostic factors of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) in children. Methods: The clinical characteristics such as age at diagnosis, primary tumor site, tumor size, pathological type, clinical stage, and risk grouping of 213 RMS patients (140 males and 73 females) treated in Hematology Oncology Center of Beijing Children's Hospital, Capital Medical University, from May 2006 to June 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. The clinical characteristics, overall survival (OS), event free survival (EFS) and prognostic factors of children treated with the Beijing Children's Hospital-Rhabdomyosarcoma (BCH-RMS) regimen were analyzed. Survival data were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, and single factor analysis was performed by Log-Rank test. Results: The diagnostic age of 213 cases was 48.0 months (ranged 3.0-187.5 months), of which 136 cases (63.8%) were younger than 10 years old. The head and neck region was the most common primary site of tumor (30%, 64 cases), followed by the genitourinary tract (26.8%, 57 cases). Among pathological subtypes, embryonal RMS accounted for 71.4% (152 cases), while alveolar RMS and anaplastic RMS accounted for only 26.8% (57 cases) and 1.9% (4 cases), respectively. According to the Intergroup Rhabdomyosarcoma Study Group (IRS), IRS-Ⅲ and Ⅳ accounted for 85.0% (181 cases) of all RMS patients. In all patients, 9.4% (20 cases) patients were divided in to low-risk group, 52.1% (111 cases) patients in to intermediate -risk group, 25.8% (55 cases) patients in to high-risk group, and 12.7% (27 cases) patients in to the central nervous system invasion group, respectively. All patients with RMS received chemotherapy. The cycles of chemotherapy were 13.5 (ranged 5.0-18.0) for patients without event occurrence, while 14.2 (ranged 3.0-30.0) for patients with event occurrence. Among the 213 patients, 200 patients had surgical operation, of whom 103 patients underwent surgery before chemotherapy and 97 patients at the end of chemotherapy, 21 patients had secondary surgical resection. Radiotherapy was performed in 114 patients. The follow-up time was 23.0 months (ranged 0.5-151.0 months) . There were 98 patients with relapsed or progressed disease and 67 patients with death. The median time to progression was 10 months, of which 67 (68.4%) relapse occurred within 1 year and no recurrence occurred after follow-up for more than 5 years. The 3-year EFS and 5-year EFS were (52±4) % and (48±4) %, while the 3-year OS and 5-year OS were (65±4) % and (64±4) % by survival analysis. The 5-year OS of the low-risk, intermediate-risk, the high-risk were 100%, (74±5) %, (48±8) %, and the 2-year OS of the central nervous system invasion group was (36±11) % (χ(2)=33.52, P<0.01). The 5-year EFS of the low-risk, intermediate-risk, the high-risk were (93±6) %, (51±5) %, (36±7) % and the 2-year EFS of the central nervous system invasion group was (31±10) % (χ(2)=24.73, P<0.01) . Survival factor analysis suggested that the OS of children was correlated with age(χ(2)=4.16, P=0.038), tumor TNM stage (χ(2)=22.02, P=0.001), IRS group (χ(2)=4.49, P<0.01) and the risk group (χ(2)=33.52, P<0.01). Conclusions: This study showed that the median age of newly diagnosed RMS patients was 4 years. The head and neck and the genitourinary tract were the most common primary origin of RMS. The OS was low in single-center RMS children. The median time to recurrence was 10 months, and recurrence was rare 3 years later.

Abstract
There has been increasing interest in using high-resolution micro-tomography to investigate the morphology of neurovascular networks in the central nervous system, which remain difficult to characterize due to their microscopic size as well as their delicate and complex 3D structure. Synchrotron radiation X-ray imaging, which has emerged as a cutting-edge imaging technology with a high spatial resolution, provides a novel platform for the non-destructive imaging of microvasculature networks at a sub-micrometre scale. When coupled with computed tomography, this technique allows the characterization of the 3D morphology of vasculature. The current review focuses on recent progress in developing synchrotron radiation methodology and its application in probing neurovascular networks, especially the pathological changes associated with vascular abnormalities in various model systems. Furthermore, this tool represents a powerful imaging modality that improves our understanding of the complex biological interactions between vascular function and neuronal activity in both physiological and pathological states.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CONTEXT Low back pain (LBP) is more prevalent among postmenopausal women than men. Ovariectomy (OVX) is an established animal model that mimics the estrogen deficiency of postmenopausal women. Little is known about the three-dimensional (3D) morphologic properties of cartilage and subchondral bone changes in the lumbar facet joint (LFJ) of an OVX mouse model. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to characterize the 3D morphologic change of cartilage and subchondral bone in the LFJ of an OVX mouse model. STUDY DESIGN Three-dimensional visualization and a histologic study on degenerative changes in cartilage and subchondral bone in the LFJ of an OVX mouse model were conducted. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ovariectomy is performed to mimic postmenopausal changes in adult female mice. We present an imaging tool for 3D visualization of the pathologic characteristics of cartilage and subchondral bone changes LFJ degradation using propagation-based phase-contrast computed tomography (PPCT). The samples were further dissected, fixed, and stained for histologic examination. RESULTS Propagation-based phase-contrast computed tomography imaging provides a 3D visualization of altered cartilage with a simultaneous high detail of the subchondral bone abnormalities in an OVX LFJ model. A quantitative analysis demonstrated that the cartilage volume, the surface area, and thickness were decreased in the OVX group compared with the control group (p<.05). Meanwhile, these decreases were accompanied by an obvious destruction of the subchondral bone surface and a loss of trabecular bone in the OVX group (p<.05). The delineation of the 3D pathologic changes in the PPCT imaging was confirmed by a histopathologic method with Safranin-O staining. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining revealed an increased number of osteoclasts in the subchondral bone of the OVX mice compared with that of the control group. CONCLUSIONS These results demonstrated that a mouse model of OVX-induced LFJ osteoarthritis (OA)-like changes was successfully established and showed a good resemblance to the human OA pathology. Propagation-based phase-contrast computed tomography has great potential to becomea powerful 3D imaging method to comprehensively characterize LFJ OA and to effectively monitor therapeutics. Moreover, degenerative LFJ possesses a severe morphologic change in the subchondral bone, may be the source of postmenopausal LBP, and has the potential to be a novel therapeutic target for LBP treatment.

Abstract
Abstract
Longer daytime hours spent outdoors reflect higher ultraviolet radiation exposure, which is a modifiable risk factor of melanoma. Among individuals of melanoma-prone families, we sought to describe lifetime patterns for hours spent outdoors, and to investigate whether having an affected family member with melanoma from an older generation was associated with patterning. Methods: Information on hours spent outdoors on weekdays, weekends, and holidays beginning at age 10 was obtained from individuals from melanoma-prone families. We determined time-weighted average hours outdoors for warmer months, colder months, and the entire year. K-means for longitudinal data was used to identify lifetime patterns. We created a variable to indicate whether there was an existing melanoma in a prior generation of an individual's family. Multinomial logistic regression models were used to examine the association between family history of melanoma and lifetime patterns of daytime hours spent outdoors, adjusting for covariates. Results: We analyzed 2540 individuals from 669 families ascertained across 15 countries, and four lifetime patterns were identified. Three patterns began with moderate hours that (B) decreased slowly (n = 1014); (C) decreased sharply until age 20 and then remained low (n = 572); or (D) increased at age 20 and remained high (n = 173). One pattern, (A) began with few hours that decreased at age 20 then remained very low (n = 781). Compared to individuals with the high (D) pattern, individuals with an existing melanoma in a prior family generation were more likely to have the low (A) pattern (OR = 1.92, 95% CI: 1.34–2.76), the moderate and slowly decreasing (B) pattern (OR = 1.72, 95% CI: 1.15–2.57), or the sharply decreasing (C) pattern (OR = 2.01, 95% CI: 1.40–2.87). Similar associations were observed separately in warmer and colder months. Examining lifetime patterns of hours spent outdoors during holidays, we noticed a stronger relationship with family history of melanoma in warmer months than in colder months. Conclusions: As expected, the diagnosis of a melanoma in a prior generation may impact family members' awareness of UVR exposure leading to reduced daytime hours spent outdoors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is a degenerative disorder of the neck. Recent studies have reported the roles of single nucleotide polymorphisms and abnormal gene expression in the etiology and development of CSM. However, a systemic review of these findings is currently unavailable. METHODS A systemic review of genetic factors of CSM was conducted through searching PubMed and EMbase databases. A total of 9 studies were included in this study, which included 8 genes: brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), osteopontin (OPN), bone morphogenic protein (BMP) 4, collagen IX, vitamin D receptor (VDR), apolipoprotein E (ApoE), hypoxia-inducible factor α (HIF-1α), and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2). RESULTS The polymorphisms of 6 genes (OPN, BMP-4, collagen IX, VDR, HIF-1α) showed significant association with the susceptibility to or risk of CSM. The polymorphisms of 3 genes (BMP-4, ApoE4, HIF-1α) were significantly associated with the postoperative outcome. The polymorphism of BDNF, VDR, and expression of COX-2 were associated with the severity of disease. CONCLUSION This review demonstrates that 8 genes were associated with CSM although there is no repeated study. This review also suggests that large scale and high quality studies are needed to provide more reliable evidence for future evaluation.

Abstract
Recent advancements in magnetic resonance imaging have allowed for the early detection of biochemical changes in intervertebral discs and articular cartilage. Here, we assessed the feasibility of axial T2, T2* and T1ρ mapping of the lumbar facet joints (LFJs) to determine correlations between cartilage and intervertebral discs (IVDs) in early lumbar vertebral degeneration. We recruited 22 volunteers and examined 202 LFJs and 101 IVDs with morphological (sagittal and axial FSE T2-weighted imaging) and axial biochemical (T2, T2* and T1ρ mapping) sequences using a 3.0T MRI scanner. IVDs were graded using the Pfirrmann system. Mapping values of LFJs were recorded according to the degeneration grades of IVDs at the same level. The feasibility of T2, T2* and T1ρ in IVDs and LFJs were analyzed by comparing these mapping values across subjects with different rates of degeneration using Kruskal-Wallis tests. A Pearson's correlation analysis was used to compare T2, T2* and T1ρ values of discs and LFJs. We found excellent reproducibility in the T2, T2* and T1ρ values for the nucleus pulposus (NP), anterior and posterior annulus fibrosus (PAF), and LFJ cartilage (intraclass correlation coefficients 0.806-0.955). T2, T2* and T1ρ mapping (all P<0.01) had good Pfirrmann grade performances in the NP with IVD degeneration. LFJ T2* values were significantly different between grades I and IV (PL = 0.032, PR = 0.026), as were T1ρ values between grades II and III (PL = 0.002, PR = 0.006) and grades III and IV (PL = 0.006, PR = 0.001). Correlations were moderately negative for T1ρ values between LFJ cartilage and NP (rL = -0.574, rR = -0.551), and between LFJ cartilage and PAF (rL = -0.551, rR = -0.499). T1ρ values of LFJ cartilage was weakly correlated with T2 (r = 0.007) and T2* (r = -0.158) values. Overall, we show that axial T1ρ effectively assesses early LFJ cartilage degeneration. Using T1ρ analysis, we propose a link between LFJ degeneration and IVD NP or PAF changes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the feasibility of axial T2 , T2*, and T1 ρ mapping of lumbar facet joint (LFJ) cartilage for evaluation of early degeneration. MATERIALS AND METHODS We examined a total of 176 LFJs from 21 volunteers using axial T2 , T2*, and T1 ρ mapping with a 3.0T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner. All LFJs were measured and grouped according to the presence of low back pain (LBP), the Weishaupt grading system, and the Pfirrmann grade of the adjacent intervertebral disk (IVD). T2 , T2*, and T1 ρ values were analyzed and compared among the different groups. RESULTS Low interobserver agreement was found in the Weishaupt grading of LFJs (κ = 0.161). The T1 ρ values of LFJs were significantly different between adjacent two Pfirrmann grade of disks (grade I 50.15 ± 3.63 msec / grade II 53.27 ± 3.80 msec, P = 0.002; grade II 53.27 ± 3.80 msec / grade III 58.40 ± 4.17 msec, P < 0.01), and in different Weishaupt grades of LFJs (P = 0.000). T2* values were only found significantly different between Pfirrmann grade I and III of disks (P = 0.048). There was no significant difference in T2 values of LFJs whatever in Pfirrmann (P = 0.556) or Weishaupt grades (P = 0.694). No significant difference was found in T2 , T2*, and T1 ρ values between volunteers with LBP and without LBP (PT2 = 0.783, PT2*=0.311, PT1 ρ = 0.259). CONCLUSION Axial T1 ρ could be an effective and sensitive method to assess for early degenerative changes in LFJ cartilage. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 1 Technical Efficacy: Stage 2 J. MAGN. RESON.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical value of early and one-stage posterior laminectomy decompression, fracture reconstruction and lateral mess screw fixation combined with anterior cervical corpectomy or discectomy for the treatment of fresh and severe lower cervical spine fracture and dislocation.
METHODS A total of 156 consecutive cases of severe fracture and dislocation of lower cervical spine were reviewed from January 2008 to January 2015. Skull traction was installed when the patients were enrolled in the hospital, so the operation was performed as early as possible. Firstly, the posterior procedure was applied to the patients prone on a frame. A standard posterior laminectomy, fixation and fusion were performed with lateral mass screws and rods. The cervical spine reconstruction was achieved by laminecomy, partially facetectomy, leverage and distraction. The technique of rotating rod was applied to recover the sequence of the cervical and keep or increase the zygopophysis and lordosis of the cervical on the sagittal plane. After the skull traction removed, a standard anterior approach to the cervical spine was initiated as the second stage of the procedure. Anterior cervical corpectomy or discectomy, spinal cord decompression, antograft and cervical spine auto-locking plate fixation were carried out. The stability, the fusion rate of the injured segments and spinal cord decompression were observed on the regular postoperative X-ray film and CT scan. The function of the spinal cord was evaluated by American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) classification.
RESULTS A total of 137 cases were followed-up, 19 failed to follow-up and 8 of them were due to death. The follow-up time was from 9.0 months to 35.0 months (mean: 13.7 months). All patients got completely reduction of the cervical spine. The injured segments were stable. There was no patient of bone graft no-fusion. The cervical intervertebral height and lordosis were reconstructed and maintained and all grafts were fused at the end of follow-up period. There was no complication related to internal fixation breakage, loosening or displacement. There was also no neurovascular and esophagus complications during the operation. Twelve patients complained neck pain at the final follow-up. There were 12 cases of wound infection and 12 cases of neck inflammatory. They were healed after anti-inflammatory therapy. There were 13 cases of cerebrospinal fluid leakage, and they were healed after the symptomatic treatment. The neuro-function of most patients was improved, and ASIA classification was improved by 1 to 2 grade.
CONCLUSION Early and one-stage posterior-anterior decompression and reconstruction for the patients with fresh and severe lower cervical spine fracture and dislocation can achieve good reduction and cervical alignment of cervical spine. The injured segments can gain postoperative immediate stability. It also gives a completely decompression, which is benefit to the patients for nursing, functional exercise, and the functional recovery of the spinal cord.

Abstract
Early diagnosis is extremely important for treatment and prognosis of skin cancer. Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is a recently developed technique used to diagnose skin cancer. This meta-analysis was carried out to assess the accuracy of RCM for the diagnosis of malignant skin tumours. We conducted a systematic literature search of EMBASE, PubMed, the Cochrane Library and Web of Science database for relevant articles in English published up to 24 December 2015. The quality of the included studies was assessed using the QUADAS-2 tool. Statistical analyses were conducted using the software Meta-Disc version 1.4 and STATA version 12.0. A total of 21 studies involving 3108 patients with a total of 3602 lesions were included in the per-lesion analysis. The corresponding pooled results for sensitivity and specificity were 93.6% (95% CI: 0.92-0.95) and 82.7% (95% CI: 0.81-0.84) respectively. Positive likelihood ratio and negative likelihood ratio were 5.84 (95% CI: 4.27-7.98) and 0.08 (95% CI: 0.07-0.10) respectively. Subgroup analysis showed that RCM had a sensitivity of 92.7% (95% CI: 0.90-0.95) and a specificity of 78.3% (95% CI: 0.76-0.81) for detecting melanoma. The pooled sensitivity and specificity of RCM for detecting basal cell carcinoma were 91.7% (95% CI: 0.87-0.95) and 91.3% (95% CI: 0.94-0.96) respectively. RCM is a valid method of identifying malignant skin tumours accurately.

Abstract
Cucurbitacin-I (Cu-I, also known as Elatericin B or JSI-124) is developed to inhibit constitutive and abnormal activation of STAT3 in many cancers, demonstrating a potent anticancer activity by targeting disruption of STAT3 function. Here, we for the first time systematically studied the underlying molecular mechanisms of Cu-I-induced gastric cancer cell death both in vitro and in vivo. In our study, we show that Cu-I markedly inhibits gastric cancer cell growth by inducing G2/M phase cell cycle arrest and apoptosis at low nanomolar concentrations via a STAT3-independent mechanism. Notably, Cu-I significantly decreases intracellular GSH/GSSG ratio by inhibiting NRF2 pathway to break cellular redox homeostasis, and subsequently induces the expression of GADD45α in a p53-independent manner, and activates JNK/p38 MAPK signaling. Interestingly, Cu-I-induced GADD45α and JNK/p38 MAPK signaling form a positive feedback loop and can be reciprocally regulated by each other. Therefore, the present study provides new insights into the mechanisms of antitumor effects of Cu-I, supporting Cu-I as an attractive therapeutic drug in gastric cancer by modulating the redox balance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Elevated resting heart rate (RHR) has been shown to be a risk marker for cardiovascular disease. Results from studies on the effects of RHR in large arteries are limited to the functional changes of those arteries, while the association between RHR and aortic diameter remains largely understudied. METHODS This was a cross sectional study of hypertensive Chinese adults from rural areas. The maximum infrarenal aortic diameter (maxIAD) from renal arteries to the iliac bifurcation was obtained by ultrasound. MaxIADs in different RHR groups were compared in males and females separately because of the significant differences between sexes. Multiple regression analysis was used to determinate the correlation between RHR and maxIAD. Further interactions between three factors (BMI, smoking, and anti-hypertensive regimens) and RHR for maxIAD were examined using subgroup analysis. RESULTS 19,200 subjects were enrolled in the study, with an average age of 64.8±7.4 years and 61.6% females. Only 22 cases (0.11%) were detected with AAA, with males (n = 17) presenting a higher AAA incidence than females (n = 5). In subjects ≥65 years, there were 18 (0.19%) AAA, and 15 (83.3%) had a history of smoking. In the total subjects, the mean maxIAD ranged from 15.7±2.1 mm to 15.2±2.2 mm as RHR changed from the lowest quartile to the highest (≥84 bpm) in males, with a similar tendency observed in females. The correlation coefficient of RHR on maxIAD was -0.17 in males and -0.12 in females. Further subgroup analysis revealed that smoking exaggerated the correlation between RHR and maxIAD, but only in females. CONCLUSIONS A low AAA incidence was observed in this hypertensive Chinese population. There was a negative association between RHR and maxIAD, potentially exaggerated by smoking, especially in females.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a rare but life-threatening disease and an animal model for in-depth study of CVST is needed. This study aimed to develop a rat model suitable for studying clinically relevant aspects of CVST and investigating its dynamic pathophysiological changes during a 7-day period. METHOD A photothrombosis method was used to create a rat sinus-vein thrombosis model. A spot size-adjustable Diode Pumped Solid State laser (DPSS) combined with thrombin injection occluded the rostral and caudal superior sagittal sinus (SSS). The model was used to evaluate pathophysiological changes at different time points over 7 days. Evans Blue dye injection was used to detect alterations in blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability. Brain water content was also measured. Moreover, we examined changes in brain infarct volume, neurological function, as well as histology after induction of CVST. RESULT CVST in rats significantly altered BBB permeability, consistent with the development of brain edema. It was accompanied by an increase in brain infarct volume and deficits in neurological function that began on day 1, peaked on day 2, and typically improved by day 7 due to the neuroprotective effects of angiogenesis and gliocyte proliferation. CONCLUSION In this study, we describe a rat model that produces clinically relevant pathophysiology and pathology that will facilitate evaluation of therapeutic regimens for CVST. Furthermore, our results indicate a period of optimal clinical intervention for patients with CVST, which may reduce the probability of dependency and death.
