Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) contamination in rice ecosystems posed a critical challenge to global food security and environmental health. This study aimed to unveil the key mechanisms trough hydroponic experiments by which chloride (Cl-) promoted the absorption and accumulation of cadmium (Cd) in rice plants. The findings elucidated that the addition of Cl- increased Cd uptake by rice roots (5.1 % ∼ 61 %), acting both directly by enhancing root morphology and indirectly through regulating of the main transporter genes of Cd. The study unveiled that Cl- addition significantly improves Cd bioavailability in roots, which was discernible through the augmentation of Cd concentration and proportion in subcellular fractions, coupled with elevated energy values in key cellular components. Moreover, Cl- addition further augmented the intricate process of Cd transport from roots to shoots (16.1- 86.7 %), which was mainly attributed to the underexpression of OsHMA3 and the decrease in the formation of sulfuhydryl substances. This research provides a comprehensive understanding of the complex mechanisms governing Cd dynamics in rice plants in the presence of Cl-. By elucidating these processes, our findings not only contribute to fundamental knowledge in plant metal uptake but also hold promising implications for mitigating Cd contamination in rice cultivation systems.

Abstract
The paddy field is a hot area of biogeochemical process. The paddy water has a large capacity in photo-generation of reactive intermediates (RIs) due to abundant photosensitive dissolved organic matter (DOM), which is influenced by the spatial heterogeneity of paddy soils but rarely been explored. Our work presents the first investigation of the role of soil properties on photochemistry in paddy water. Soil organic matter (SOM), determined by the temperature, was the dominant factor for the photo-generation of RIs in paddy water of main rice producing areas. The RI concentrations generated with abundant SOM from cool regions are 0.05-8.71 times higher than those for the warm regions in China. The humic-like substance and aromatic-like compounds of DOM plays an essential role in RIs generation, which is abundant in paddy soils rich in SOM from Chinese cool regions. In addition, RIs can efficiently accelerate the photo-ammonification of urea and free amino acids by 15.2 %-164 %, leading to 0.13-0.17 mmol/L/d photo-produced ammonium after fertilization, which is preferentially absorbed by rice. The findings of this study will extend our knowledge of the geochemistry of global paddy field ecosystem. The potential role of RIs in nitrogen cycle should be highlighted in the agroecosystem.

Abstract
Foliar application of beneficial nanoparticles (NPs) exhibits potential in reducing cadmium (Cd) uptake in crops, necessitating a systematic understanding of their leaf-root-microorganism process for sustainable development of efficient nano-enabled agrochemicals. Herein, wheat grown in Cd-contaminated soil (5.23 mg/kg) was sprayed with different rates of four commonly used NPs, including nano selenium (SeNPs)/silica (SiO2NPs)/zinc oxide/manganese dioxide. SeNPs and SiO2NPs most effectively reduced the Cd concentration in wheat grains. Compared to the control, Cd concentration in grains was significantly decreased by 35.0 and 33.3% by applying 0.96 mg/plant SeNPs and 2.4 mg/plant SiO2NPs, and the grain yield was significantly increased by 33.9% with SeNPs application. Down-regulated gene expression of Cd transport proteins (TaNramp5 and TaLCT1) and up-regulated gene expression of vacuolar Cd fixation proteins (TaHMA3 and TaTM20) were observed with foliar SeNPs and SiO2NPs use. SeNPs increased the levels of leaf antioxidant metabolites. Additionally, foliar spray of SeNPs resulted in lower abundances of rhizosphere organic acids and reduced Cd bioavailability in rhizosphere soil, and soil microorganisms related to carbon and nitrogen (Solirubrobacter and Pedomicrobium) were promoted. Our findings underscore the potential of the foliar application of SeNPs and SiO2NPs as a plant and rhizosphere soil metabolism-regulating approach to reduce Cd accumulation in wheat grains.

Abstract
Tandem nitrate electroreduction reaction (NO3 -RR) is a promising method for green ammonia (NH3) synthesis. However, the mismatched kinetics processes between NO3 --to-NO2 - and NO2 --to-NH3 results in poor selectivity for NH3 and excess NO2 - evolution in electrolyte solution. Herein, a Ni2+ substitution strategy for developing oxide heterostructure in Co/Fe layered double oxides (LDOs) was designed and employed as tandem electrocataltysts for NO3 -RR. (Co0.83Ni0.16)2Fe exhibited a high NH3 yield rate of 50.4 mg ⋅ cm-2 ⋅ h-1 with a Faradaic efficiency of 97.8 % at -0.42 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) in a pulsed electrolysis test. By combining with in situ/operando characterization technologies and theoretical calculations, we observed the strong selectivity of NH3 evolution over (Co0.83Ni0.16)2Fe, with Ni playing a dual role in NO3 -RR by i) modifying the electronic behavior of Co, and ii) serving as complementary site for active hydrogen (*H) supply. Therefore, the adsorption capacity of *NO2 and its subsequent hydrogenation on the Co sites became more thermodynamically feasible. This study shows that Ni substitution promotes the kinetics of the NO3 -RR and provides insights into the design of tandem electrocatalysts for NH3 evolution.

Abstract
Sulfidated zero valent iron (ZVI) is a popular material for the reductive degradation of halogenated organic pollutants. Simple and economic synthesis of this material is highly demanded. In this study, sulfidated micro/nanostructured ZVI (MNZVI) particles were prepared by simply heating MNZVI particles and sulfur elements (S0) in pure water (50℃). The iron oxides on the surface of MNZVI particles were conducive to sulfidation reaction, indicating the formation of iron-sulphide minerals (FeSx) on the surface of MNZVI particles might not be from the direct reaction of Fe0 with S0 (Fe0 and S0 acted as reductant and oxidant, respectively). As an important reductant, hydrogen atom (H•) can be generated from the reduction of H+ by MNZVI particles and participate in the formation of FeSx. Quenching experiment and cyclic voltammetry analysis proved the existence of H• on the surface of MNZVI particles. DFT calculation found that the potential barrier of H•/S0 and Fe0/S0 were 1.91 and 7.24 eV, respectively, indicating that S0 would preferentially react with H• instead of Fe0. The formed H• can quickly react with S0 to generate hydrogen sulfide (H2S), which can further react with iron oxides such as α-Fe2O3 on the surface of MNZVI particles to form FeSx. In addition, the H2 partial pressure in water significantly affected the amount of H• generated, thereby affecting the sulfidation efficiency. For TCE degradation, as the sulfur loading of sulfidated MNZVI particles increased, the contribution of H• significantly decreased while the contribution of direct electron transfer increased. This study provided new insights into the synthesis mechanism of sulfidated ZVI in water.

Abstract
Apart from individual genetic background, unhealthy lifestyle and diet, etc., nutrition also plays an important role in the occurrence and progression of gastrointestinal tumors. Although some patients with gastrointestinal tumors can be satisfied with the traditional nutritional support, it is apparently inadequate for the systemic management of all patients. Precision nutrition support, also known as personalized nutrition support, refers to safe and efficient individualized nutrition intervention based on the investigation of individual genetic background, life characteristics, metabolic indicators, intestinal microbial characteristics, and physiological status factors through big data analysis for the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases. This review focuses on the relationship between nutrition and gastrointestinal tumors and discusses the progress of precision nutrition support therapy in the gastrointestinal tumors. Based on this, we hope to achieve effective personalized intervention protocols, and improve the clinical outcome and the overall oncology care of gastrointestinal tumors.

Abstract
The present work assessed the purity of [Glu1]-fibrinopeptide B (GFB) as a model peptide using gas chromatography - isotope dilution mass spectrometry. GFB and various isotope-labeled amino acids were hydrolyzed in HCl and then derivatized using optimized procedures. The primary impurity in GFB was also identified and used to correct the final result. A method repeatability of 0.5% was achieved and linear calibrations were obtained for five amino acids. The LOD and LOQ were 0.041 to 0.096 μg g-1, and 0.16 to 0.56 μg g-1, respectively. The purity of GFB was found to be (0.715 ± 0.012) g g-1. This technique exhibited comparable accuracy to that obtainable from liquid chromatography - isotope dilution mass spectrometry but at lower cost. This method could be employed as a reference technique or in fields such as clinical diagnostics or bio-pharmaceutical peptide purity analysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies have demonstrated that APOC1 is associated with cancer progression, exerting cancer-promoting and immune infiltration-promoting effects. Nevertheless, there is currently no report on the presence of APOC1 in ovarian cancer (OV). METHOD In this study, we conducted data analysis using the GEO and TCGA databases. We conducted a thorough bioinformatics analysis to investigate the function of APOC1 in OV, utilizing various platforms including cBioPortal, STRING, GeneMANIA, LinkedOmics, GSCALite, TIMER, and CellMarker. Additionally, we performed immunohistochemical staining on tissue microarrays and conducted in vitro cellular assays to validate our findings. RESULT Our findings reveal that APOC1 expression is significantly upregulated in OV compared to normal tissues. Importantly, patients with high APOC1 levels show a significantly poorer prognosis. Furthermore, our study demonstrated that APOC1 exerted a crucial function in promoting the capacity of ovarian cancer cells to proliferate, migrate, and invade. Additionally, we have identified that genes co-expressed with APOC1 are primarily associated with adaptive immune responses. Notably, the levels of APOC1 in OV exhibit a correlation with the presence of M2 Tumor-associated Macrophages (TAMs). CONCLUSION APOC1 emerges as a promising prognostic biomarker for OV and exhibits a significant association with M2 TAMs in OV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Blomia tropicalis (B. tropicalis) has been reported to impose an increased risk of allergic diseases. However, few characteristics of the unknown allergen components responsible for B. tropicalis allergy and clinical relevance have been fully identified. METHODS We synthesized and characterized the physicochemical properties and cross-reactivity of the newly discovered recombinant B. tropicalis group 41 allergen (rBlo t 41). Subsequently, sera were collected from 107 B. tropicalis allergic subjects to evaluate the prevalence of the rBlo t 41. Lastly, its allergenicity was tested in humans by basophil activation assays, and in mice by a model of allergic asthma. RESULTS The mature protein of rBlo t 41 was described as 104 amino acids long and 15.8 kDa, and its limited cross-reactivity was observed between allergens of house dust mites (HDM). Sensitization rate of rBlo t 41 (56.07 %) was lower than rBlo t 2 (76.29 %) and rBlo t 5 (69.07 %) in our study. Besides, rBlo t 41 elicited CD63 upregulation in basophils, whereas rBlo t 41-sensitized mice generated rBlo t 41-IgE and developed allergic airway inflammation after allergen exposure. Of note, component-based tests showed a high area under curve value (AUC = 0.75) of rBlo t 41, displaying its favorable diagnostic potential in B. tropicalis allergy. CONCLUSIONS rBlo t 41 was identified as a candidate novel major allergen with good diagnostic potential in B. tropicalis sensitization. Additionally, we provided strong evidence about rBlo t 41 on the clinically relevant manifestations in B. tropicalis allergies, conducive to facilitating the development of component-resolved diagnosis.

Abstract
Arsenic (As) contamination is widespread in soil and poses a threat to agricultural products and human health due to its high susceptibility to absorption by rice. Fe-bearing materials (Fe-Mat) display significant potential for reducing As bioavailability in soil and bioaccumulation in rice. However, the remediation effect of various Fe-Mat is often inconsistent, and the response to diverse environmental factors is ambiguous. Here, we conducted a meta-analysis to quantitatively assess the effects of As in soils, rice roots, and grains based on 673, 321, and 305 individual observations from 67 peer-reviewed articles, respectively. On average, Fe-Mat reduced As bioavailability in soils, rice roots, and grains by 28.74 %, 33.48 %, and 44.61 %, respectively. According to the analysis of influencing factors, the remediation efficiency of Fe-Mat on As-contaminated soil was significantly enhanced with increasing Fe content in the material, in which the industry byproduct was the most effective in soils (-42.31 %) and rice roots (-44.57 %), while Fe-biochar was superior in rice grains (-54.62 %). The efficiency of Fe-Mat in minimizing soil As mobility was negatively correlated with soil Fe content, CEC, and pH. In addition, applying Fe-Mat in alkaline soils with higher silt, lower clay and available P was more effective in reducing As in rice grains. A higher efficiency of applying Fe-Mat under continuous flooding conditions (27.39 %) compared with alternate wetting and drying conditions (23.66 %) was also identified. Our results offer an important reference for the development of remediation strategies and methods for various As-contaminated paddy soils.

Abstract
Accurately applying engineered nanoparticles (NPs) in farmland stress management is important for sustainable agriculture and food safety. We investigated the protective effects of four engineered NPs (SiO2, CeO2, ZnO, and S) on pakchoi under arsenic (As) stress using pot experiments. The results showed that CeO2, SiO2, and S NPs resulted in biomass reduction, while ZnO NPs (100 and 500 mg kg-1) significantly increased shoot height. Although 500 mg kg-1 S NPs rapidly dissolved to release SO42-, reducing soil pH and pore water As content and further reducing shoot As content by 21.6 %, the growth phenotype was inferior to that obtained with 100 mg kg-1 ZnO NPs, probably due to acid damage. The addition of 100 mg kg-1 ZnO NPs not only significantly reduced the total As content in pakchoi by 23.9 % compared to the As-alone treatment but also enhanced plant antioxidative activity by increasing superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD) activities and decreasing malondialdehyde (MDA) content. ZnO NPs in soil might inhibit As uptake by roots by increasing the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) by 19.12 %. According to the DLVO theory, ZnO NPs were the most effective in preventing As in pore water from entering plant roots due to their smaller hydrated particle size. Redundancy analysis (RDA) further confirmed that DOC and SO42- were the primary factors controlling plant As uptake under the ZnO NP and S NP treatments, respectively. These findings provide an important basis for the safer and more sustainable application of NP-conjugated agrochemicals.

Abstract
Allergen component products, such as recombinant proteins and epitope peptides of allergic components, are used as an adjunct to allergen-specific immunotherapy. We characterized a novel allergen, Tyr p 31, from Tyrophagus putrescentiae, a common allergenic mite. T. putrescentiae total RNA was amplified to Tyr p 31-encoding cDNA, which was inserted into pET28a(+). pET28a(+)-Tyr p 31 was then transformed into Rosetta 2 (DE3) pLysS cells and expressed under isopropyl β-D-thiogalactoside induction. Next, we visualized Tyr p 31 through sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Western blotting based on its theoretical molecular weight. Recombinant Tyr p 31 (rTyr p 31) was purified, and its secondary structure was noted to comprise α-helices, antiparallel coils, β-turns, parallel coils, and random coils. Our enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Western blotting results for T. putrescentiae-positive sera from children with allergic disorders demonstrated rTyr p 31-specific IgE-positivity rates of 72.41 % and 85.7 %, respectively. In BEAS-2B cells, rTyr p 31 increased IL-6 and IL-8 expression; furthermore, BEAS-2B cells treated with 30 μg/mL rTyr p 31 demonstrated 100 upregulated and 12 downregulated genes. In summary, we identified Tyr p 31, a novel T. putrescentiae allergen component, and noted rTyr p 31 to have a high IgE-binding rate and strong immunogenicity.

Abstract
Background The prognosis of anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 positive dermatomyositis (anti-MDA5+DM) is poor and heterogeneous. Rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (RP-ILD) is these patients' leading cause of death. We sought to develop prediction models for RP-ILD risk in anti-MDA5+DM patients. Methods Patients with anti-MDA5+DM were enrolled in two cohorts: 170 patients from the southern region of Jiangsu province (discovery cohort) and 85 patients from the northern region of Jiangsu province (validation cohort). Cox proportional hazards models were used to identify risk factors of RP-ILD. RP-ILD risk prediction models were developed and validated by testing every independent prognostic risk factor derived from the Cox model. Results There are no significant differences in baseline clinical parameters and prognosis between discovery and validation cohorts. Among all 255 anti-MDA5+DM patients, with a median follow-up of 12 months, the incidence of RP-ILD was 36.86%. Using the discovery cohort, four variables were included in the final risk prediction model for RP-ILD: C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, anti-Ro52 antibody positivity, short disease duration, and male sex. A point scoring system was used to classify anti-MDA5+DM patients into moderate, high, and very high risk of RP-ILD. After one-year follow-up, the incidence of RP-ILD in the very high risk group was 71.3% and 85.71%, significantly higher than those in the high-risk group (35.19%, 41.69%) and moderate-risk group (9.54%, 6.67%) in both cohorts. Conclusions The CROSS model is an easy-to-use prediction classification system for RP-ILD risk in anti-MDA5+DM patients. It has great application prospect in disease management.

Abstract
The regulation of plant biomass degradation by fungi is critical to the carbon cycle, and applications in bioproducts and biocontrol. Trichoderma harzianum is an important plant biomass degrader, enzyme producer, and biocontrol agent, but few putative major transcriptional regulators have been deleted in this species. The T. harzianum ortholog of the transcriptional activator XYR1/XlnR/XLR-1 was deleted, and the mutant strains were analyzed through growth profiling, enzymatic activities, and transcriptomics on cellulose. From plate cultures, the Δxyr1 mutant had reduced growth on D-xylose, xylan, and cellulose, and from shake-flask cultures with cellulose, the Δxyr1 mutant had ~90% lower β-glucosidase activity, and no detectable β-xylosidase or cellulase activity. The comparison of the transcriptomes from 18 h shake-flask cultures on D-fructose, without a carbon source, and cellulose, showed major effects of XYR1 deletion whereby the Δxyr1 mutant on cellulose was transcriptionally most similar to the cultures without a carbon source. The cellulose induced 43 plant biomass-degrading CAZymes including xylanases as well as cellulases, and most of these had massively lower expression in the Δxyr1 mutant. The expression of a subset of carbon catabolic enzymes, other transcription factors, and sugar transporters was also lower in the Δxyr1 mutant on cellulose. In summary, T. harzianum XYR1 is the master regulator of cellulases and xylanases, as well as regulating carbon catabolic enzymes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease affecting millions of people worldwide, but early detection can be challenging due to the time-consuming nature of the traditional technique. Machine learning has shown great potential in the prompt prediction of asthma. However, because of the inherent complexity of asthma-related patterns, current models often fail to capture the correlation between data samples, limiting their accuracy. Our objective was to use our novel model to address the above problem via an Affinity Graph Enhanced Classifier (AGEC) to improve predictive accuracy. METHODS The clinical dataset used in this study consisted of 152 samples, where 24 routine blood markers were extracted as features to participate in the classification due to their ease of sourcing and relevance to asthma. Specifically, our model begins by constructing a projection matrix to reduce the dimensionality of the feature space while preserving the most discriminative features. Simultaneously, an affinity graph is learned through the resulting subspace to capture the internal relationship between samples better. Leveraging domain knowledge from the affinity graph, a new classifier (AGEC) is introduced for asthma prediction. AGEC's performance was compared with five state-of-the-art predictive models. RESULTS Experimental findings reveal the superior predictive capabilities of AGEC in asthma prediction. AGEC achieved an accuracy of 72.50%, surpassing FWAdaBoost (61.02%), MLFE (60.98%), SVR (64.01%), SVM (69.80%) and ERM (68.40%). These results provide evidence that capturing the correlation between samples can enhance the accuracy of asthma prediction. Moreover, the obtained [Formula: see text] values also suggest that the differences between our model and other models are statistically significant, and the effect of our model does not exist by chance. CONCLUSION As observed from the experimental results, advanced statistical machine learning approaches such as AGEC can enable accurate diagnosis of asthma. This finding holds promising implications for improving asthma management.

Abstract
Consumption of cadmium (Cd) contaminated rice is the main dietary source of Cd exposure and toxicity. To protect humans from Cd toxicity, it is pivotal to fully understand the sex-dependent toxicity of subchronic rice-Cd exposure. However, the sex-dependent effects of subchronic rice-Cd exposure on body weight gain, gut microflora, and kidney metabolomics are still unclear. In this study, a Cd-free and a Cd-contaminated rice (0.005 and 0.74 mg Cd kg-1) were fed to both female and male mice for one month, with changes in body weight gain, Cd accumulation in tissue, bone mineral concentration, expression of intestinal channels involving in Cd and calcium (Ca) absorption, gut microbiota, and kidney metabolites assessed for both genders. Results showed that female mice had normal body weight gain after rice-Cd exposure, while body weight of male mice was decreased from 19.8 to 17.5 g over the one-month consumption of the Cd-contaminated rice (0.74 mg kg-1), suggesting specific toxicity on growth of male mice. Rice-Cd exposure had limited effects on gut microbiota for both genders. However, higher Cd accumulation in liver and femur was observed in male mice than in females, which may be due to higher intestinal expression of Ca channels involving in intestinal Cd absorption in male mice with rice-Cd exposure. Greater risk of osteoporosis was also observed in male mice. In addition, kidney metabolomic profiling showed special disruption of adrenocortical hormone homeostasis for male mice with rice-Cd exposure. Particularly, expression of cortisol in kidneys of male mice was elevated 37.1-fold with rice-Cd exposure, likely resulting in Cushing's syndrome and contributing to growth retardation. This study advances our understanding of the sex-dependent toxicity of rice-Cd exposure, and highlights the priority of protecting males from the adrenocortical hormone disrupting effects of rice-Cd exposure.

Abstract
Nanomaterial application in agriculture offers novel solutions for soil arsenic (As) pollution control, yet safety along the food chain is of concern. We comprehensively assessed CeO2 nanoparticles (NPs) foliar application effects on As uptake by pakchoi and their presence in the pakchoi-snail food chain. CeO2 NPs reduced As transfer from pakchoi roots to shoots by 37.9%, lowered As in snail foot by 39%, and halved human As exposure risk. The NPs alleviated pakchoi shoot As toxicity by regulating antioxidants, enhancing water use efficiency, and photosynthesis. CeO2 +As treatment raised GSH/GSSG ratios by 38.92%- 167.54%, leading to an increased AsIII/AsV ratio and inorganic As detoxification compared to As alone. Metabolomics revealed CeO2's rapid As response via phosphatidylinositol signaling. The enzyme-like activity of CeO2 NPs may drive these effects. While CeO2 foliar application accumulated Ce on pakchoi leaves, > 99% of Ce was excreted following snail consumption. Ce transfer from pakchoi leaves to snail foot was minimal (trophic transfer factor ∼0.00007) due to limited bioavailability. The target hazard quotient of Ce in pakchoi shoot (1.21 ± 0.18) and snails (0.0016 ± 0.0004) indicated low exposure risk, suggesting a 'risk filter' effect for CeO2. Our results contribute to the safe and sustainable application of CeO2 NPs in the future implication.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome is a medical condition characterized by several metabolic disorders in the body. Long-term metabolic disorders raise the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Therefore, it is essential to actively explore the aetiology of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its comorbidities to provide effective treatment options. Ferroptosis is a new form of cell death that is characterized by iron overload, lipid peroxide accumulation, and decreased glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4) activity, and it involves the pathological processes of a variety of diseases. Lipid deposition caused by lipid diseases and iron overload is significant in metabolic syndrome, providing the theoretical conditions for developing ferroptosis. Recent studies have found that the major molecules of ferroptosis are linked to common metabolic syndrome consequences, such as T2DM and atherosclerosis. In this review, we first discussed the mechanics of ferroptosis, the regulatory function of inducers and inhibitors of ferroptosis, and the significance of iron loading in MetS. Next, we summarized the role of ferroptosis in the pathogenesis of MetS, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and atherosclerosis. Finally, we discussed relevant ferroptosis-targeted therapies and raised some crucial issues of concern to provide directions for future Mets-related treatments and research.

Abstract
Blomia tropicalis is an important species of allergenic mite. Structurally related cross-reactive allergens are involved in pathogenesis of clinical symptoms. The present study focused on recombinant allergen rBlo t 13 from B. tropicalis, including investigation of its structure, immunological properties, IgE-mediated cross-reactivity. In this work, the prokaryotic expression plasmids pET-28(a)-Blo t 13, pET-28(a)-Der f 13, and pET-28(a)-Tyr p 13 were constructed, transformed into E. coli Rosetta (DE3) pLysS, and purified by nickel affinity chromatography, respectively. By using ELISA, the IgE-binding rates were detected for rBlo t 13 and its epitope peptides, as well as the cross-reactivity among rBlo t 13, rDer f 13, and rTyr p 13. The tertiary structure of rBlo t 13 was resolved using X-ray diffraction at 2.0 Å resolution. Using IgE-ELISA, the IgE binding rate of rBlo t 13 was 60 % with Blomia tropicalis-positive sera. In the experiments of ELISA for cross-reactivity with rBlo t 13 on solid phase, the inhibition rates were 65 %, 57 % and 63 % for rBlo t 13, rDer f 13, and rTyr p 13, respectively. The structure of Blo t 13 protein contains a β-barrel structure which is composed of 10 β strands and has 2 α helices at the end of the barrel. Comparison of the tertiary structures of rBlo t 13, rDer f 13, and rTyr p 13 revealed that the β-barrel structure is highly conserved, consistent with the alignment of amino acid sequences. We obtained the recombinant protein rBlo t 13, demonstrated its cross-reactivity with Der f 13 and Tyr p 13 due to their structural similarity.

Abstract
Mammary glands infection via Gram-negative bacteria may cause infertility or reduced ovarian function. In the current study, a potential treatment for LPS-induced ovarian inflammation was developed. Propolis was loaded into chitosan nanoparticles and co-administered with menstrual blood stem cells (MenSCs) in mice infused with LPS. Various properties of propolis-loaded chitosan nanoparticles were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy, drug release assay, antibacterial assay, and radical scavenging assay. In vitro studies showed biocompatibility, anti-oxidative, and antibacterial properties of the developed propolis nanoformulation. In vivo study showed that mice treated with co-administration of propolis-loaded chitosan nanoparticles and MenSCs significantly increased the total ovarian follicle reserve in mice infused with LPS. Percentage of mature follicles in co-administration method was around 13.89 ± 1.72 %. Gene expression studies showed that the expression levels of inflammation related cytokines including IL6, IL8, IL-1β, and TNF-α were downregulated in this group compared with other groups. However, the expression levels of PTEN, AKT, FOXO3 did not show a significant difference between groups. The developed treatment may potentially considered as an approach for treating ovarian infection with gram-negative bacteria.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to develop nomogram prediction models to differentiate between adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) and sepsis. METHODS We retrospectively collected laboratory test data from 107 hospitalized patients with AOSD and sepsis at the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University. Multivariate binary logistic regression was used to develop nomogram models using arthralgia, WBC, APTT, creatinine, PLT, and ferritin as independent factors. The performance of the model was evaluated by the bootstrap consistency index and calibration curve. RESULTS Model 1 had an AUC of 0.98 (95% CI, 0.96-1.00), specificity of 0.98, and sensitivity of 0.94. Model 2 had an AUC of 0.96 (95% CI, 0.93-1.00), specificity of 0.92, and sensitivity of 0.94. The fivefold cross-validation yielded an accuracy (ACC) of 0.92 and a kappa coefficient of 0.83 for Model 1, while for Model 2, the ACC was 0.87 and the kappa coefficient was 0.74. CONCLUSION The nomogram models developed in this study are useful tools for differentiating between AOSD and sepsis. Key Points • The differential diagnosis between AOSD and sepsis has always been a challenge • Delayed treatment of AOSD may lead to serious complications • We developed two nomogram models to distinguish AOSD from sepsis, which were not previously reported • Our models can be used to guide clinical practice with good discrimination.

Abstract
RNA methyltransferase nucleolar protein p120 (NOP2), commonly referred to as NOP2/Sun RNA methyltransferase family member 1 (NSUN1), is involved in cell proliferation and is highly expressed in various cancers. However, its role in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) remains unclear. Our study investigated the expression of NOP2 in HGSOC tissues and normal fimbria tissues, and found that NOP2 was significantly upregulated in HGSOC tissues. Our experiments showed that NOP2 overexpression promoted cell proliferation in vivo and in vitro and increased the migration and invasion ability of HGSOC cells in vitro. Furthermore, we identified Rap guanine nucleotide exchange factor 4 (RAPGEF4) as a potential downstream target of NOP2 in HGSOC. Finally, our findings suggest that the regulation of NOP2 and RAPGEF4 may depend on m5C methylation levels.

Abstract
Nano-biochar (N-BC) is an emerging nanomaterial with potential applications in various fields. Understanding its behavior in the environment and its interaction with plants is crucial for assessing its ecological implications and potential risks to the food chain. In this study, we investigated the absorption and transportation of N-BC by wheat and Chinese cabbage plants using microscopy techniques and stable isotope analysis. Our results revealed that N-BC particles were readily absorbed by the plants through their root systems and transported to the aboveground tissues. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy provided visual evidence of N-BC particles inside the plants, predominantly located in the xylem and cell walls of the cortical tissue. Stable isotope analysis confirmed the uptake and transportation of N-BC, with elevated isotopic values observed in the plant tissues exposed to 13C-N-BC. Our results demonstrated that around 50.2 %-52.4 % of the absorbed N-BC by plants was accumulated in the roots of wheat and Chinese cabbage, and the remaining fraction was transferred to the shoots including steam (31.0 %-32.1 %) and leaf (16.5 %-17.6 %). Importantly, we observed significant accumulation of N-BC in the edible parts of Chinese cabbage, raising concerns about its potential entry into the food chain and associated health risks. These findings highlight the need for further research to explore the specific pathways and modes of N-BC uptake and transport in plants. Monitoring the presence of N-BC in the environment and its potential impact on the food chain is crucial for ensuring food security and safeguarding human health.

Abstract
Prebiotics may stimulate beneficial gut microorganisms. However, it remains unclear whether they can lower the oral bioavailability of early life arsenic (As) exposure via regulating gut microbiota and altering As biotransformation along the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. In this study, weanling mice were exposed to arsenate (iAsV) via diet (7.5 μg As g-1) amended with fructooligosaccharides (FOS), galactooligosaccharides (GOS), and inulin individually at 1% and 5% (w/w). Compared to As exposure control mice, As concentrations in mouse blood, liver, and kidneys and As urinary excretion factor (UEF) were reduced by 43.7%-74.1% when treated with 5% GOS. The decrease corresponded to a significant proliferation of Akkermansia and Psychrobacter, reduced percentage of inorganic arsenite (iAsIII) and iAsV by 47.4% and 65.4%, and increased proportion of DMAV in intestinal contents by 101% in the guts of mice treated with 5% GOS compared to the As control group. In contrast, FOS and inulin either at l% or 5% did not reduce As concentration in mouse blood, liver, and kidneys or As UEF. These results suggest that GOS supplementation may be a gut microbiota-regulating approach to lower early life As exposure via stimulating the growth of Akkermansia and Psychrobacter and enhancing As methylation in the GI tract.

Abstract
Both biotic and abiotic mechanisms play a role in soil CO2 emission processes. However, abiotically mediated CO2 emission and the role of reactive oxygen species are still poorly understood in paddy soil. This study revealed that •OH promoted CO2 emission in paddy soil slurries during short-term oxidation (4 h). •OH generation was highly hinged on active Fe(II) content, and the •OH contribution to CO2 efflux was 10%-33% in topsoil and 40%-77% in deep-soil slurries. Net CO2 efflux was higher in topsoil slurries, which contained more dissolved organic carbon (DOC). CO2 efflux correlated well with DOC contents, suggesting the critical role of DOC. Microbial mechanisms contributed 9%-45% to CO2 production, as estimated by γ-ray sterilization experiments in the short-term reoxidation process. Solid-aqueous separation experiments showed a significant reduction in net CO2 efflux across all soil slurries after the removal of the original aqueous phase, indicating that the water phase was the main source of CO2 emission (>50%). Besides, C emission was greatly affected by pH fluctuation in acidic soil but not in neutral/alkaline soils. Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry and excitation-emission matrix results indicated that recalcitrant and macromolecular dissolved organic matter (DOM) components were more easily removed or attacked by •OH. The decrease in DOM content during the short-term reoxidation was the combined result of •OH oxidation, co-precipitation, and soil organic matter release. This study emphasizes the significance of the generally overlooked nonmicrobial mechanisms in promoting CO2 emission in the global C cycle, and the critical influence of the aqueous phase on C loss in paddy environments.

Abstract
Nano-biochar is a novel material with emerging applications in various fields, including agriculture and environmental remediation. The potential risks of nano-biochar (N-BC) in the food chain necessitate further investigation. We studied the distribution and toxicity of N-BC in mice through dietary exposure. Using Balb/c mice, we assessed N-BC accumulation in organs and its impact on vital organs. Isotope analysis showed significant accumulation of 13C-N-BC in the liver (53.1%-55.9%), kidneys (4.0%-5.9%), and blood (9.2%-13.6%), with lesser amounts in the intestines (0.8%-1.2%) and stool (28.0%-28.1%). N-BC induced liver damage, evident by increased oxidative stress markers and histopathological changes. It disrupted tight junction proteins in the intestine, potentially allowing systemic entry. N-BC also influenced gut microbiota composition and metabolites. Our study provides insights into N-BC's distribution, toxicity, and environmental risks, urging further research on its implications for mammalian health and the ecosystem.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The differential diagnosis between adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) and sepsis has always been a challenge. In this study, a machine learning model for differential diagnosis of AOSD and sepsis was developed and an online platform was developed to facilitate the clinical application of the model. METHODS All data were collected from 42 AOSD patients and 50 sepsis patients admitted to Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from December 2018 to December 2021. In addition, 5 AOSD patients and 10 sepsis patients diagnosed in our hospital after March 2022 were collected for external validation. All models were built using the scikit-learn library (version 1.0.2) in Python (version 3.9.7), and feature selection was performed using the SHAP (Shapley Additive exPlanation) package developed in Python. RESULTS The results showed that the gradient boosting decision tree(GBDT) optimization model based on arthralgia, ferritin × lymphocyte count, white blood cell count, ferritin × platelet count, and α1-acid glycoprotein/creatine kinase could well identify AOSD and sepsis. The training set interaction test (AUC: 0.9916, ACC: 0.9457, Sens: 0.9556, Spec: 0.9578) and the external validation also achieved satisfactory results (AUC: 0.9800, ACC: 0.9333, Sens: 0.8000, Spec: 1.000). We named this discrimination method AIADSS (AI-assisted discrimination of Still's disease and Sepsis) and created an online service platform for practical operation, the website is http://cppdd.cn/STILL1/ . CONCLUSION We created a method for the identification of AOSD and sepsis based on machine learning. This method can provide a reference for clinicians to formulate the next diagnosis and treatment plan.

Abstract
The molecular and metabolic mechanisms of foliar selenium (Se) nanoparticles (SeNPs) application in mitigating cadmium (Cd) toxicity in crops have not been well studied. Herein, hydroponically cultured maize seedlings were exposed to Cd (20 μM) and treated without and with foliar SeNPs application. Effects of SeNPs on Cd transporter genes and plant metabolism were also explored. Results showed that compared to control plants without Cd exposure, Cd exposure decreased shoot height (16.8 %), root length (17.7 %), and fresh weight of root (24.2 %), stem (28.8 %), and foliar-applied leaves (Se-leaves) (15.0 %) via oxidative damage. Compared to Cd exposure alone, foliar SeNPs application at 20 mg/L (0.25 mg/plant) significantly alleviated the Cd toxicity by promoting photosynthesis and antioxidant capacity and fixing Cd in cell wall. Meanwhile, the mineral concentration of Ca (26.0 %), Fe (55.4 %), Mg (27.0 %), Na (28.6 %), and Zn (10.1 %) in Se-leaves was improved via foliar SeNPs application at 20 mg/L. QRT-PCR analysis further revealed that down- and up-regulation of the expression of ZmHMA2 and ZmHMA3 gene in Se-leaves contributed to reduced translocation of Cd in plants and enhanced Cd sequestration in the vacuole, respectively. Metabolomic results further indicated that metabolic pathways including carbohydrate metabolism, membrane transport, translation, amino acid metabolism, and energy metabolism were significantly affected by foliar SeNPs application. In conclusion, foliar SeNPs application at 20 mg/L could be a prospective strategy to mitigate Cd toxicity in maize.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the factors influencing visual outcomes in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) who developed persistent submacular fluid (PSF) after scleral buckling surgery. Methods: A retrospective case series analysis was conducted. Clinical data were collected from patients who underwent successful scleral buckling surgery for RRD at Beijing Tongren Hospital from June 2020 to December 2022 and were followed up. Patients with RRD involving the macular area preoperatively and graded as C1 or below in proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) were included. Surgical procedures followed a minimally invasive scleral buckling approach. PSF was defined as subretinal fluid persisting for more than 1 month postoperatively. Regular follow-up visits were scheduled at postoperative days 1, 3, 7, 2 weeks, and 1 month, followed by monthly visits until complete PSF absorption. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure, refractive error, slit-lamp biomicroscopy, binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) were performed at each follow-up time point. Eyes were divided into two groups based on whether the final follow-up BCVA was≥0.5 and whether the absorption time of PSF was>6 months, and statistical analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, chi-squared test, and Mann-Whitney U test. Results: A total of 46 patients (46 eyes) were included in this study, comprising 25 males and 21 females, with a median age of 32.5 (21.0, 57.3) years. The preoperative equivalent spherical refractive error was (-5.27±4.05) D, and the preoperative duration of illness was 30 (14, 92) days. The preoperative BCVA (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution,logMAR) was 2.00 (1.00, 2.50). Scleral buckle surgery was performed in 28 eyes (60.9%), and 18 eyes (39.1%) underwent scleral buckle surgery combined with encircling. External drainage was performed in 15 eyes (32.6%), while 31 eyes (67.4%) had no external drainage. BCVA (logMAR) at 1 month, 3 months, and the final follow-up postoperatively was 0.60 (0.50, 1.00), 0.40 (0.28, 0.53), and 0.15 (0.00, 0.50), respectively. In the final follow-up, 31 eyes (67.4%) achieved BCVA≥0.5, and 26 eyes (56.5%) had continuous ellipsoid zone on OCT. The differences in BCVA (logMAR) between preoperative, 1 month, 3 months, and the final follow-up were statistically significant (Z=-5.85, -5.63, -4.73;all P<0.001). The absorption time of PSF postoperatively was 6.50 (3.00, 9.00) months, ranging from 2 to 19 months. The eyes with PSF duration<3 months, 3-6 months, and>6 months were 12 eyes (26.1%), 11 eyes (23.9%), and 23 eyes (50.0%), respectively. There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in preoperative BCVA≥0.05, preoperative duration of illness within 1 month, PVR grading, surgical method, and continuous ellipsoid zone on OCT (all P<0.05), while there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in PSF absorption time, different types of PSF, and intraoperative drainage (all P>0.05). The PSF absorption time in the two groups was 7 (3, 10) months and 6 (4, 8) months, with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). Conclusions: Preoperative visual acuity, duration of illness, and PVR grading are factors influencing visual outcomes in patients with RRD who have undergone scleral buckling surgery and develop PSF. In contrast, intraoperative drainage, PSF absorption time, and different PSF types are not factors affecting visual prognosis. Although PSF may persist for a long time after scleral buckling surgery, it does not significantly impact long-term visual outcomes.

Understanding the role of parton mass and Casimir color factors in the quantum chromodynamics parton shower represents an important step in characterizing the emission properties of heavy quarks. Recent experimental advances in jet substructure techniques have provided the opportunity to isolate and characterize gluon emissions from heavy quarks. In this Letter, the first direct experimental constraint on the charm-quark splitting function is presented, obtained via the measurement of the groomed shared momentum fraction of the first splitting in charm jets, tagged by a reconstructed D^{0} meson. The measurement is made in proton-proton collisions at sqrt[s]=13 TeV, in the low jet transverse-momentum interval of 15≤p_{T}^{jet ch}<30 GeV/c where the emission properties are sensitive to parton mass effects. In addition, the opening angle of the first perturbative emission of the charm quark, as well as the number of perturbative emissions it undergoes, is reported. Comparisons to measurements of an inclusive-jet sample show a steeper splitting function for charm quarks compared with gluons and light quarks. Charm quarks also undergo fewer perturbative emissions in the parton shower, with a reduced probability of large-angle emissions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Blood-flow pattern is an essential factor in cardiovascular development. Recently, blood speckle-tracking echocardiography (BST) based on high-frame-rate ultrasound has emerged as a promising technique for the assessment of blood-flow patterns and properties. The objectives of this study were to determine the feasibility of BST in the fetus and to assess intracardiac blood-flow patterns of fetuses with a congenital heart defect (CHD) using this technique. METHODS This was a prospective study consisting of 35 normal fetuses, 35 fetuses with left-sided obstructive lesion (LSOL) and 35 fetuses with right-sided obstructive lesion (RSOL). BST images of fetal intracardiac regions of interest (ROIs), including the left ventricle (LV), right ventricle (RV), ascending aorta (AAo), aortic arch (AA), descending aorta (DAo) and pulmonary artery (PA), were obtained and analyzed. The feasibility of BST was assessed, and blood-flow pattern and number of vortices in the ROIs were recorded. RESULTS The median gestational age of the fetuses was 24.7 weeks (range, 19.6-34.3 weeks). BST was feasible in 81.6% of cases, and the cut-off value of depth for an adequate BST image was ≤ 7.9 cm. There were no differences in the presence of vortex/turbulent blood flow in the LV or RV among the three groups. Vortex/turbulent blood flow in the AAo was detected in 0% (0/35), 14.3% (5/35) and 57.1% (20/35) of cases in the control, LSOL and RSOL groups, respectively. The respective values were 5.7% (2/35), 14.3% (5/35) and 51.4% (18/35) for the AA; 0% (0/35), 48.6% (17/35) and 0% (0/35) for the DAo; and 0% (0/35), 40.0% (14/35) and 51.4% (18/35) for the PA. With the exception of the DAo in the RSOL group, vortex/turbulent flow in the great artery ROIs was significantly more common in the LSOL and RSOL groups than in controls (P < 0.01). In the LSOL group, the number of vortices in the AAo, AA, DAo and PA was significantly greater compared with that in controls (P < 0.01). In the RSOL group, the number of vortices in the LV, AAo, AA and PA was significantly greater compared with that in controls (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Fetuses with CHD were more likely to exhibit vortex/turbulent blood flow and increased number of vortices in the great arteries compared with healthy controls. Further research is needed to determine the biomechanical effect of blood-flow patterns, especially vortex flow, on fetal cardiovascular structure and function. © 2023 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Abstract
Microplastics weathering by various types of oxidants in the oxic environment and their interaction with environmental contaminants have drawn numerous scientific attention. However, the environmental fate of microplastics under a reducing environment has been largely unresolved. Herein, the change of physicochemical and redox properties of microplastics during the weathering under a sulfate-reducing environment and the interaction with arsenite were addressed. The sulfurization of phenol-formaldehyde resin microplastics under a sulfate-reducing environment generated smooth and porous particles with the induction of organic S species. Multiple spectroscopic results demonstrated thioether and thiophene groups formed by the substitute removal of O-containing functional groups. Moreover, the sulfurization process induced the reduction of carbonyl groups and oxidation of phenolic hydroxyl groups and resulted in the formation of semiquinone radicals. The O-containing functional groups contributed to microplastics redox property and As(III) oxidation while S-containing functional groups showed no obvious effect. The sulfurized microplastics had lower efficiency in mediating arsenite oxidation than the unsulfurized counterparts due to the decreased electron donating capacity. Producing hydrogen peroxides by electron-donating phenol groups and semiquinone radicals and the direct semiquinone radicals oxidation could mediate arsenite oxidation. The findings of this study help us understand the fate of microplastics in redox fluctuation interfaces.

Abstract
Background RNA methylation is a significant form of post-transcriptional modification that has been implicated in various diseases, including cancers. One prominent type of RNA methylation is 5-Methylcytosine (m5C), which primarily regulates RNA stability, transcription, and translation. However, the role of m5C-related gene regulation in cell adhesion within uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) remains unexplored. Therefore, the objective of this study was to investigate the association between RNA m5C methylation and UCEC and develop a prognostic predictive model to forecast survival outcomes in UCEC patients. Methods The RNA datasets were acquired from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases. The dataset was used to explore the interaction relationships of m5C regulators in UCEC. Unsupervised clustering analysis identified clusters with distinct m5C modification patterns. Different clusters underwent Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment level analysis to investigate the effects of pathways related to m5C methylation, which were further validated through in vitro cellular experiments. A prognostic predictive model was developed using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and multivariate regression analysis. Results Two clusters with distinct m5C modification patterns were identified using unsupervised cluster analysis. Furthermore, the prognosis of cluster 2 was found to be worse. Enrichment analysis showed alterations in cell adhesion-related pathways in both clusters, as well as differences between the clusters. Through this analysis, we identified 25 genes with significant prognostic value. Finally, a prognostic predictive model comprising NSUN2 and YBX1 was constructed. Conclusions In conclusion, diverse m5C modification patterns display distinct cell adhesion properties in UCEC, which are correlated with prognosis and offer significant potential as prognostic markers for UCEC assessment. We developed a prognostic predictive model to accurately predict the prognosis of UCEC.

Abstract
Frequent cycles of flooding and drainage in paddy soils lead to the reductive dissolution of iron (Fe) minerals and the reoxidation of Fe(II) species, all while generating a robust and consistent output of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this study, we present a comprehensive assessment of the temporal and spatial variations in Fe species and ROS during the flooding-drainage process in a representative paddy soil. Our laboratory column experiments showed that a decrease in dissolved O2 concentration led to rapid Fe reduction below the water-soil interface, and aqueous Fe(II) was transformed into solid Fe(II) phases over an extended flooding time. As a result, the •OH production capacity of liquid phases was reduced while that of solid phases improved. The •OH production capacity of solid phases increased from 227-271 μmol kg-1 (within 1-11 cm depth) to 500-577 to 499-902 μmol kg-1 after 50 day, 3 month, and 1 year incubation, respectively. During drainage, dynamic •OH production was triggered by O2 consumption and Fe(II) oxidation. ROS-trapping film and in situ capture revealed that the soil surface was the active zone for intense H2O2 and •OH production, while limited ROS production was observed in the deeper soil layers (>5 cm) due to the limited oxygen penetration. These findings provide more insights into the complex interplay between dynamic Fe cycling and ROS production in the redox transition zones of paddy fields.

Abstract
Arsenic (As) exposure has been related to many diseases, including cancers. Given the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, the dietary supplementation of polyphenols may alleviate As toxicity. Based on a mouse bioassay, this study investigated the effects of chlorogenic acid (CA), quercetin (QC), tannic acid (TA), resveratrol (Res), and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) on As bioavailability, biotransformation, and toxicity. Intake of CA, QC, and EGCG significantly (p < 0.05) increased total As concentrations in liver (0.48-0.58 vs 0.27 mg kg-1) and kidneys (0.72-0.93 vs 0.59 mg kg-1) compared to control mice. Upregulated intestinal expression of phosphate transporters with QC and EGCG and proliferation of Lactobacillus in the gut of mice treated with CA and QC were observed, facilitating iAsV absorption via phosphate transporters and intestinal As solubility via organic acid metabolites. Although As bioavailability was elevated, serum levels of alpha fetoprotein and carcinoembryonic antigen of mice treated with all five polyphenols were reduced by 13.1-16.1% and 9.83-17.5%, suggesting reduced cancer risk. This was mainly due to higher DMAV (52.1-67.6% vs 31.4%) and lower iAsV contribution (4.95-10.7% vs 27.9%) in liver of mice treated with polyphenols. This study helps us develop dietary strategies to lower As toxicity.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) accumulation in edible plant tissues poses a serious threat to human health through the food chain. Assessing the availability of soil Cd is crucial for evaluating associated environmental risks. However, existing experimental methods and traditional models are time-consuming and inefficient. In this study, we developed machine learning models to predict soil available Cd based on soil properties, using a dataset comprising 585 data points covering 585 soils. Traditional machine learning models exhibited prediction values beyond the theoretical range, urging the need for alternative approaches. To address this, different models were tested, and the post-constraint eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) model was found to possess the best predictive performance (R2 =0.81) outperform traditional linear regression model in terms of accuracy. Furthermore, we explored the relationship between soil available Cd and wheat grain Cd and rice grain Cd. Linear regression models were developed using 302 data points for wheat and 563 data points for rice. Results demonstrated a significant correlation between soil available Cd and wheat grain Cd (R2 =0.487) as well as rice grain Cd (R2 =0.43).

Abstract
Alcohols are commonly used as eluents for the regeneration of per/poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) adsorbents, but their potential effects on the subsequent treatment of these eluates have not been fully explored. This work investigated the effect of alcohols on perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) degradation by persulfate (PS) based advanced oxidation processes. The results showed that ethanol significantly promoted PFOA degradation in thermal/PS system. Under anoxic conditions, 25.5±1.4% or 91.2±1.6% of PFOA was degraded within 48 h in the absence or presence of ethanol. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) detection, free radical quenching experiments, and chemical probe studies clearly demonstrated that the sulfate radicals (SO4•-) generated from PS activation would react with ethanol to form alcohol radicals, which could efficiently degrade PFOA. The transformation pathways of PFOA were proposed based on degradation products analysis and density function theory (DFT) calculation. The reaction between SO4•- and other alcohols could also induce the formation of alcohol radicals and facilitate to the degradation of PFOA. This work represents the positive roles of alcohols in the degradation of PFASs, providing new insights into developing simple and efficient treatments for PFASs eluate or PFAS-contaminated water.

Abstract
The addition of a secondary metal (such as Cu, Co, Ni and Pd) to form iron-based bimetallic particles could enhance the reactivity of zero valent iron (ZVI). This study proposed a new synthesis method for preparing Cu-Fe bimetals (Cu-Febm (CuSO4)) by ball milling mZVI and CuSO4. During ball-milling process, 40% of Cu2+ can be reduced to Cu0, which formed galvanic couple with Fe0 in a way of Fe/Cu alloy structure. Part Cu2+ was only reduced to Cu+ (corresponding to Cu2O), while 29% of SO42- was reduced to Sx2- (corresponding to FeSx). The appearance of Cu2O was not conducive to the activity of Cu-Febm (CuSO4) particles, the formation of Fe0/FeSx structure compensated for the partial loss of Fe/Cu alloy. H•abs was identified as the main active species for TCE degradation by Cu-Febm (CuSO4) bimetals. The Cu-Febm (CuSO4) bimetals has great potential for the removal of chlorinated hydrocarbons in water.

Abstract
Negative emotions of drivers may lead to some dangerous driving behaviors, which in turn lead to serious traffic accidents. However, most of the current studies on driver emotions use a single modality, such as EEG, eye trackers, and driving data. In complex situations, a single modality may not be able to fully consider a driver's complete emotional characteristics and provides poor robustness. In recent years, some studies have used multimodal thinking to monitor single emotions such as driver fatigue and anger, but in actual driving environments, negative emotions such as sadness, anger, fear, and fatigue all have a significant impact on driving safety. However, there are very few research cases using multimodal data to accurately predict drivers' comprehensive emotions. Therefore, based on the multi-modal idea, this paper aims to improve drivers' comprehensive emotion recognition. By combining the three modalities of a driver's voice, facial image, and video sequence, the six classification tasks of drivers' emotions are performed as follows: sadness, anger, fear, fatigue, happiness, and emotional neutrality. In order to accurately identify drivers' negative emotions to improve driving safety, this paper proposes a multi-modal fusion framework based on the CNN + Bi-LSTM + HAM to identify driver emotions. The framework fuses feature vectors of driver audio, facial expressions, and video sequences for comprehensive driver emotion recognition. Experiments have proved the effectiveness of the multi-modal data proposed in this paper for driver emotion recognition, and its recognition accuracy has reached 85.52%. At the same time, the validity of this method is verified by comparing experiments and evaluation indicators such as accuracy and F1 score.

Abstract
Systemic immune status influences the elimination of tumor cells. However, it remains unclear how chronic inflammation in allergic diseases affects the tumor microenvironment and tumorigenesis. To investigate tumor progression in a state of heightened allergic inflammation, we established a mouse model of allergic inflammation. We used house dust mite extract to induce a hyper-reactive systemic immune response. Additionally, we subcutaneously inoculated two types of cancer cells (CT26 and 4T1 tumors). We conducted immune profiling of the ex-vivo tumor mass using multicolor flow cytometry staining and performed dynamic analysis of peripheral cytokines to explore the significant relationship between the development of allergic inflammation and tumorigenesis. We found that mice in a state of allergic inflammation were more susceptible to developing tumors. Interestingly, the growth of T cell-inflamed was inhibited in the allergic state, while growth of non-T cell-inflamed was promoted. Further research revealed that natural killer (NK) cells with enhanced tumor-killing or immune-regulating abilities were more active in " hot " tumors. Inhibiting NK cell activity can partially alleviate the impact of allergic inflammation on tumor growth. In summary, our results suggest that NK cells play significant role in suppressing tumor growth in an allergic inflammation mouse model. This phenomenon seems to be closely linked to both the inherent characteristics of the tumor and its interaction with the immune system. The innate immune system can be mobilized to synergize with the adaptive immune system to inhibit tumor growth, which opens a new way for a tumor immunotherapy.

Abstract
The most precise measurements to date of the _{Λ}^{3}H lifetime τ and Λ separation energy B_{Λ} are obtained using the data sample of Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02 TeV collected by ALICE at the LHC. The _{Λ}^{3}H is reconstructed via its charged two-body mesonic decay channel (_{Λ}^{3}H→^{3}He+π^{-} and the charge-conjugate process). The measured values τ=[253±11(stat)±6(syst)] ps and B_{Λ}=[102±63(stat)±67(syst)] keV are compatible with predictions from effective field theories and confirm that the _{Λ}^{3}H structure is consistent with a weakly bound system.

Abstract
Few studies have investigated the long-term effect of exposure to arsenic (As), lead (Pb), and cadmium (Cd) via drinking water at the provisional guideline values on gut microflora. In this study, male and female mice were exposed to water As, Pb, or Cd at 10, 10, or 5 μg L-1 for 6 months. At the end of the exposure, the net weight gain of male mice exposed to As and Pb (9.91 ± 1.35 and 11.2 ± 1.50 g) was significantly (p < 0.05) lower compared to unexposed control mice (14.1 ± 3.24 g), while this was not observed for female mice. Relative abundance of Akkermansia, a protective gut bacterium against intestinal inflammation, was reduced from 29.7% to 3.20%, 4.83%, and 17.0% after As, Pb, and Cd exposure in male mice, which likely caused chronic intestinal inflammation, as suggested by 2.81- to 9.60-fold higher mRNA levels of pro-inflammatory factors in ileal enterocytes of male mice. These results indicate that long-term exposure to drinking water As, Pb, and Cd at concentrations equivalent to the China provisional guideline values can cause loss of protective bacteria and lead to chronic intestinal inflammation, thereby affecting body weight gain in male mice.

Abstract
Alcohol consumption alters gut microflora and damages intestinal tight junction barriers, which may affect arsenic (As) oral bioavailability. In this study, mice were exposed to arsenate in the diet (6 μg/g) over a 3-week period and gavaged daily with Chinese liquor (0.05 or 0.10 mL per mouse per day). Following ingestion, 78.0% and 72.9% of the total As intake was absorbed and excreted via urine when co-exposed with liquor at daily doses of 0.05 or 0.10 mL, significantly greater than when As was supplied alone (44.7%). Alcohol co-exposure significantly altered gut microbiota but did not significantly alter As biotransformation in the intestinal tract or tissue. Significantly lower relative mRNA expression was observed for genes encoding for tight junctions in the ileum of liquor co-exposed mice, contributing to greater As bioavailability attributable to enhanced As absorption via the intestinal paracellular pathway. However, As concentration in the liver, kidney, and intestinal tissue of liquor-treated mice was decreased by 24.4%-42.6%, 27.5%-38.1%, and 28.1%-48.9% compared to control mice. This was likely due to greater renal glomerular filtration rate induced by alcohol, as suggested by significantly lower expression of genes encoding for renal tight junctions. In addition, in mice gavaged daily with 0.05 mL liquor, the serum antidiuretic hormone level was significantly lower than control mice (2.83 ± 0.59 vs. 5.40 ± 1.10 pg/mL), suggesting the diuretic function of alcohol consumption, which may facilitate As elimination via urine. These results highlight that alcohol consumption has a significant impact on the bioavailability and accumulation of As.

Abstract
Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp., RKN) are responsible for extensive crop losses worldwide. During infection, they penetrate plant roots, migrate between plant cells, and establish feeding sites, known as giant cells, near the root vasculature. Previously, we found that nematode perception and early responses in plants were similar to those of microbial pathogens and required the BRI1-ASSOCIATED KINASE1/SOMATIC EMBRYOGENESIS RECEPTOR KINASE3 (BAK1/SERK3) coreceptor in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) and tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). Here, we implemented a reverse genetic screen for resistance or sensitivity to RKN using Arabidopsis T-DNA alleles of genes encoding transmembrane receptor-like kinases to identify additional receptors involved in this process. This screen identified a pair of allelic mutations with enhanced resistance to RKN in a gene we named ENHANCED RESISTANCE TO NEMATODES1 (ERN1). ERN1 encodes a G-type lectin receptor kinase (G-LecRK) with a single-pass transmembrane domain. Further characterization showed that ern1 mutants displayed stronger activation of MAP kinases, elevated levels of the defense marker MYB51, and enhanced H2O2 accumulation in roots upon RKN elicitor treatments. Elevated MYB51 expression and ROS bursts were also observed in leaves of ern1 mutants upon flg22 treatment. Complementation of ern1.1 with 35S- or native promoter-driven ERN1 rescued the RKN infection and enhanced defense phenotypes. Our results indicate that ERN1 is an important negative regulator of immunity.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the correlation of spinopelvic alignment according to Roussouly classification on the occurrence of adjacent segment disease (ASD) in the patients undergoing fusion surgery for lumbar degenerative diseases. Methods: A cross-sectional study. Clinical data of 166 consecutive patients who had undergone lumbar fusion between January 2009 and January 2019 in the Affiliated Changzhou Second People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University and Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital of Medical School of Nanjing University were retrospectively reviewed. There were 59 males and 107 females, with an average age of (58.6±9.5) years (ranged 41-78 years). Fusion length averagely spanned (1.7±0.7) levels (ranged 1-3 levels). The patients were classified by both "theoretical" (based on pelvic incidence (PI)) and "current"(based on sacral slope (SS)) Roussouly types. The patients were classified as "matched" if their "current" shape matched the "theoretical" type and otherwise as "unmatched". Multivariate logistic regression analysis of the variables recruited from univariate analyses was performed to identify the factors independently associated with the development of ASD after lumbar fusion. Results: The average follow-up duration after initial surgery was (49.2±20.7) months (ranged 25 to 134 months). Thirty (18.1%, 30/166) patients were diagnosed as ASD. Postoperatively, two thirds of the patients who suffered ASD after surgery were unmatched, while 36.8% (50/136) of the patients without ASD had unmatched type. Univariate analyses showed that older age, more fusion levels, float fusion, pre-and postoperative worse spinopelvic alignment, and postoperative unmatched Roussouly type were identified as risk factors of ASD. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified postoperative Roussouly type mismatch (OR=3.310, 95%CI: 1.282-8.545, P=0.013), old age (OR=1.074, 95%CI: 1.019-1.131, P=0.008) and postoperative SS (OR=0.928, 95%CI: 0.865-0.995, P=0.036) as the independent risk factors of development of ASD after lumbar fusion. Conclusion: A significant association between postoperative sagittal malalignment and occurrence of ASD is detected, the evaluation of sagittal alignment by Roussouly classification could help predict the occurrence of ASD.

Abstract
The oomycete Pythium oligandrum is a potential biocontrol agent to control a wide range of fungal and oomycete-caused diseases, such as Pythium myriotylum-caused rhizome rot in ginger, leading to reduced yields and compromised quality. Previously, P. oligandrum has been studied for its plant growth-promoting potential by auxin production and induction of disease resistance by elicitors such as oligandrin. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) play beneficial roles in sustainable agriculture by enhancing plant growth and resistance. We investigated the contribution of P. oligandrum-produced VOCs on plant growth and disease suppression by initially using Nicotiana benthamiana plants for screening. P. oligandrum VOCs significantly enhanced tobacco seedling and plant biomass contents. Screening of the individual VOCs showed that 3-octanone and hexadecane promoted the growth of tobacco seedlings. The total VOCs from P. oligandrum also enhanced the shoot and root growth of ginger plants. Transcriptomic analysis showed a higher expression of genes related to plant growth hormones and stress responses in the leaves of ginger plants exposed to P. oligandrum VOCs. The concentrations of plant growth hormones such as auxin, zeatin, and gibberellic acid were higher in the leaves of ginger plants exposed to P. oligandrum VOCs. In a ginger disease biocontrol assay, the VOC-exposed ginger plants infected with P. myriotylum had lower levels of disease severity. We conclude that this study contributes to understanding the growth-promoting mechanisms of P. oligandrum on ginger and tobacco, priming of ginger plants against various stresses, and the mechanisms of action of P. oligandrum as a biocontrol agent. IMPORTANCE Plant growth promotion plays a vital role in enhancing production of agricultural crops, and Pythium oligandrum is known for its plant growth-promoting potential through production of auxins and induction of resistance by elicitors. This study highlights the significance of P. oligandrum-produced VOCs in plant growth promotion and disease resistance. Transcriptomic analyses of leaves of ginger plants exposed to P. oligandrum VOCs revealed the upregulation of genes involved in plant growth hormone signaling and stress responses. Moreover, the concentration of growth hormones significantly increased in P. oligandrum VOC-exposed ginger plants. Additionally, the disease severity was reduced in P. myriotylum-infected ginger plants exposed to P. oligandrum VOCs. In ginger, P. myriotylum-caused rhizome rot disease results in severe losses, and biocontrol has a role as part of an integrated pest management strategy for rhizome rot disease. Overall, growth enhancement and disease reduction in plants exposed to P. oligandrum-produced VOCs contribute to its role as a biocontrol agent.
