Abstract
Objective Cardiac regenerative medicine has gained significant attention in recent years, and integrins are known to play a critical role in mediating cardiac development and repair, especially after an injury from the myocardial infarction (MI). Given the extensive research history and interdisciplinary nature of this field, a quantitative retrospective analysis and visualization of related topics is necessary. Materials and methods We performed a scientometric analysis of published papers on cardiac integrin adhesion complexes (IACs), including analysis of annual publications, disciplinary evolution, keyword co-occurrence, and literature co-citation. Results A total of 2,664 publications were finally included in the past 20 years. The United States is the largest contributor to the study and is leading this area of research globally. The journal Circulation Research attracts the largest number of high-quality publications. The study of IACs in cardiac repair/regenerative therapies involves multiple disciplines, particularly in materials science and developmental biology. Keywords of research frontiers were represented by Tenasin-C (2019-2023) and inflammation (2020-2023). Conclusion Integrins are topics with ongoing enthusiasm in biological development and tissue regeneration. The rapidly emerging role of matricellular proteins and non-protein components of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in regulating matrix structure and function may be a further breakthrough point in the future; the emerging role of IACs and their downstream molecular signaling in cardiac repair are also of great interest, such as induction of cardiac proliferation, differentiation, maturation, and metabolism, fibroblast activation, and inflammatory modulation.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the relationship between gut microbiota and its metabolite dysregulation and postoperative cognitive dysfunction in elderly male C57BL/6J mice after laparotomy exploration. Methods: A total of 48 specific pathogen-free (SPF) male C57BL/6J mice, aged 16-17 months, were divided into two groups by random number table method: control group (n=24) and operation group (n=24). Mice in the operation group were induced with 1.4% isoflurane for 15 minutes, followed by a 10 minutes exploratory laparotomy anesthetized with 1.4% isoflurane and 100% oxygen, and anesthesia continued for 2 hours after surgery. Mice in control group were put in 100% oxygen for 2 hours. Feces and venous blood samples of both groups were collected 48 hours after surgery. Changes in the abundance and diversity of intestinal bacteria in the feces were detected by 16S rDNA gene sequencing. Functional changes of fecal metabolic profiles were detected by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS) metabolomics and differential metabolite functions were analyzed. The serum level of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The cognitive function of the mice was detected by Morris water maze test 3 days after operation. Results: The postoperative escape latency of mice in control group and operation group was (22.0±4.9) and (35.0±5.1) s, and the target quadrant residence time was (26.0±3.7) and (16.0±2.9) s, respectively. Compared with the control group, the postoperative escape latency of mice in the operation group was prolonged (P=0.035), and the residence time in the target quadrant was reduced (P=0.006). The difference of intestinal flora between the two groups was comparable. The expression levels of Escherichia coli, shigella and clostridium in the operation group were up-regulated, while the expression levels of rumen bacteria and butyricobacteria were down-regulated. Fecal metabolic profiles of mice in control group and operation group were obtained by LC/MS, and 14 and 21 different metabolites were screened in positive and negative ion modes, respectively. The different metabolites in positive ion mode were glutamic acid, 2-indoleic acid, kynuuric acid and glyceraldehyde. The negative ion pattern differential metabolites are methionine, aspartic acid, L-threonine, tyrosyl-threonine and 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid. The identified differential metabolite pathways are mainly involved in amino acid, fatty acid and tryptophan metabolism and nucleotide synthesis. There were no significant differences in serum levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion: The dysregulated changes of gut microbiota and its metabolites are correlated with the occurrence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction in elderly male C57BL/6J mice. Anesthesia and surgery alter the structure of mice intestinal bacteria on the level of abundance, and change the metabolic balance and feces metabolomic phenotype.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of deep neuromuscular blockade (DNMB) combined with low pneumoperitoneum pressure anesthesia strategy on postoperative pain in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal surgery. Methods: This study was a randomized controlled trial. One hundred and twenty patients who underwent laparoscopic colorectal surgery at Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from December 1, 2022 to May 31, 2023 were selected and randomly divided into two groups by random number table method. Moderate neuromuscular blockade [train of four stimulations count (TOFC)=1-2] was maintained in patients of the control group (group C, n=60) and pneumoperitoneum pressure level was set at 15 mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa). DNMB [post-tonic stimulation count (PTC)=1-2] was maintained in patients of the DNMB combined with low pneumoperitoneum pressuregroup (group D, n=60) and pneumoperitoneum pressure level was set at 10 mmHg. The primary measurement was incidence of moderate to severe pain at 1 h after surgery. The secondary measurements the included incidence of moderate to severe pain at 1, 2, 3, 5 d and 3 months after surgery, the incidence of rescue analgesic drug use, the doses of sufentanil in analgesic pumps, surgical rating scale (SRS) score, the incidence of postoperative residual neuromuscular block, postoperative recovery [evaluated with length of post anesthesia care unit (PACU) stay, time of first exhaust and defecation after surgery and length of hospital stay] and postoperative inflammation conditions [evaluated with serum concentration of interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6 at 1 d and 3 d after surgery]. Results: The incidence of moderate to severe pain in group D 1 h after surgery was 13.3% (8/60), lower than 30.0% (18/60) of group C (P<0.05). The incidence of rescue analgesia in group D at 1 h and 1 d after surgery were 13.3% (8/60) and 4.2% (5/120), respectively, lower than 30.0% (18/60) and 12.5% (15/120) of group C (both P<0.05). The IL-1β level in group D was (4.1±1.8)ng/L at 1 d after surgery, which was lower than (4.9±2.6) ng/L of group C (P=0.048). The IL-6 level in group D was (2.0±0.7)ng/L at 3 d after surgery, which was lower than (2.4±1.1) ng/L of group C (P=0.018). There was no significant difference in the doses of sufentanil in analgesic pumps, intraoperative SRS score, incidence of neuromuscular block residue, time spent in PACU, time of first exhaust and defecation after surgery, incidence of nausea and vomiting, and length of hospitalization between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion: DNMB combined with low pneumoperitoneum pressure anesthesia strategy alleviates the early-stage pain in patients after laparoscopic colorectal surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Next-generation sequencing-based molecular assessment has benefited the diagnosis of hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) subtypes. However, the clinical and genetic spectrum of HSP due to large fragment deletions/duplications has yet to be fully defined. OBJECTIVE We aim to better characterize the clinical phenotypes and genetic features of HSP and to provide new thoughts on diagnosis. METHODS Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed in patients with clinically suspected HSP, followed by multiple ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) sequentially carried out for those with negative findings in known causative genes. Genotype-phenotype correlation analyses were conducted under specific genotypes. RESULTS We made a genetic diagnosis in 60% (162/270) of patients, of whom 48.9% (132/270) had 24 various subtypes due to point mutations (SPG4/SPG11/SPG35/SPG7/SPG10/SPG5/SPG3A/SPG2/SPG76/SPG30/SPG6/SPG9A/SPG12/SPG15/SPG17/SPG18/SPG26/SPG49/SPG55/SPG56/SPG57/SPG62/SPG78/SPG80). Thirty patients were found to have causative rearrangements by MLPA (11.1%), among which SPG4 was the most prevalent (73.3%), followed by SPG3A (16.7%), SPG6 (3.3%), SPG7 (3.3%), and SPG11 (3.3%). Clinical analysis showed that some symptoms were often related to specific subtypes, and rearrangement-related SPG3A patients seemingly had later onset. We observed a presumptive anticipation among SPG4 and SPG3A families due to rearrangement. CONCLUSIONS Based on the largest known Asian HSP cohort, including the largest subgroup of rearrangement-related pedigrees, we gain a comprehensive understanding of the clinical and genetic spectrum of HSP. We propose a diagnostic flowchart to sequentially detect the causative genes in practice. Large fragment mutations account for a considerable proportion of HSP, and thus, MLPA screening acts as a beneficial supplement to routine WES. © 2024 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the diagnosis and treatment of adolescence-onset methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) deficiency. Methods: This was a retrospective case study. Nine patients with adolescence-onset MTHFR deficiency were diagnosed at Peking University First Hospital from January 2016 to December 2022, and followed up for more than 1 year. Their general information, clinical manifestations, laboratory tests, cranial images, MTHFR gene variants, diagnosis, treatment, and outcome were analyzed retrospectively. Results: The 9 patients came from 8 families. They had symptoms at age of 8.0 years to 17.0 years and diagnosed at 9.0 years to 17.5 years. Eight were male and 1 was female. Two patients were brothers, the elder brother developed abnormal gait at 17.0 years; and the younger brother was then diagnosed at 15.0 years of age and treated at the asymptomatic stage, who was 18.0 years old with normal condition during this study. The main manifestations of the 8 symptomatic patients included progressive dyskinesia and spastic paralysis of the lower limbs, with or without intellectual decline, cognitive impairment and behavioral abnormalities. Totally, 15 variants of MTHFR gene were identified in the 9 patients, including 8 novel variants. Five patients had brain image abnormalities. Increased plasma total homocysteine level (65-221 μmol/L) was found in all patients, and decreased to 20-70 μmol/L after treatment with betaine and calcium folinate. Besides, the 8 symptomatic patients had their behavior and cognitive problems significantly improved, with a legacy of lower limb motor disorders. Conclusions: Late-onset MTHFR deficiency can occur in adolescence. The diagnosis is usually delayed because of non-specific clinical symptoms. The test of blood total homocysteine could be used as a selective screening test. Eight novel varients of MTHFR gene were identified. Timely treatment can improve clinical condition significantly, and pre-symptomatic treatment may prevent brain damage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R)-related disorder (CRD) is a rare autosomal dominant disease. The clinical and genetic characteristics of Chinese patients have not been elucidated. OBJECTIVE The objective of the study is to clarify the core features and influence factors of CRD patients in China. METHODS Clinical and genetic-related data of CRD patients in China were collected. Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), and Sundal MRI Severity Score were evaluated. Whole exome sequencing was used to analyze the CSF1R mutation status. Patients were compared between different sexes, mutation types, or mutation locations. RESULTS A total of 103 patients were included, with a male-to-female ratio of 1:1.51. The average age of onset was (40.75 ± 8.58). Cognitive impairment (85.1%, 86/101) and parkinsonism (76.2%, 77/101) were the main clinical symptoms. The most common imaging feature was bilateral asymmetric white matter changes (100.0%). A total of 66 CSF1R gene mutants (22 novel mutations) were found, and 15 of 92 probands carried c.2381 T > C/p.I794T (16.30%). The MMSE and MoCA scores (17.0 [9.0], 11.90 ± 7.16) of female patients were significantly lower than those of male patients (23.0 [10.0], 16.36 ± 7.89), and the white matter severity score (20.19 ± 8.47) of female patients was significantly higher than that of male patients (16.00 ± 7.62). There is no statistical difference in age of onset between male and female patients. CONCLUSIONS The core manifestations of Chinese CRD patients are progressive cognitive decline, parkinsonism, and bilateral asymmetric white matter changes. Compared to men, women have more severe cognitive impairment and imaging changes. c.2381 T > C/p.I794T is a hotspot mutation in Chinese patients. © 2024 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autologous tooth transplantation requires precise surgical guide design, involving manual tracing of donor tooth contours based on patient cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans. While manual corrections are time-consuming and prone to human errors, deep learning-based approaches show promise in reducing labor and time costs while minimizing errors. However, the application of deep learning techniques in this particular field is yet to be investigated. PURPOSE We aimed to assess the feasibility of replacing the traditional design pipeline with a deep learning-enabled autologous tooth transplantation guide design pipeline. STUDY DESIGN, SETTING, SAMPLE This retrospective cross-sectional study used 79 CBCT images collected at the Guangzhou Medical University Hospital between October 2022 and March 2023. Following preprocessing, a total of 5,070 region of interest images were extracted from 79 CBCT images. PREDICTOR VARIABLE Autologous tooth transplantation guide design pipelines, either based on traditional manual design or deep learning-based design. MAIN OUTCOME VARIABLE The main outcome variable was the error between the reconstructed model and the gold standard benchmark. We used the third molar extracted clinically as the gold standard and leveraged it as the benchmark for evaluating our reconstructed models from different design pipelines. Both trueness and accuracy were used to evaluate this error. Trueness was assessed using the root mean square (RMS), and accuracy was measured using the standard deviation. The secondary outcome variable was the pipeline efficiency, assessed based on the time cost. Time cost refers to the amount of time required to acquire the third molar model using the pipeline. ANALYSES Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test. Statistical significance was set at P < .05. RESULTS In the surface matching comparison for different reconstructed models, the deep learning group achieved the lowest RMS value (0.335 ± 0.066 mm). There were no significant differences in RMS values between manual design by a senior doctor and deep learning-based design (P = .688), and the standard deviation values did not differ among the 3 groups (P = .103). The deep learning-based design pipeline (0.017 ± 0.001 minutes) provided a faster assessment compared to the manual design pipeline by both senior (19.676 ± 2.386 minutes) and junior doctors (30.613 ± 6.571 minutes) (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE The deep learning-based automatic pipeline exhibited similar performance in surgical guide design for autogenous tooth transplantation compared to manual design by senior doctors, and it minimized time costs.

Abstract
There is increasing interest in the use of short-acting opioids such as remifentanil to facilitate tracheal intubation. The aim of this systematic review was to determine the efficacy and safety of remifentanil for tracheal intubation compared with neuromuscular blocking drugs in adult patients. We conducted a systematic search for randomised controlled trials evaluating remifentanil for tracheal intubation. Primary outcomes included tracheal intubation conditions and adverse events. Twenty-one studies evaluating 1945 participants were included in the analysis. Use of remifentanil (1.5-4.0 μg.kg-1 ) showed no evidence of a difference in tracheal intubation success rate compared with neuromuscular blocking drugs (risk ratio (95%CI) 0.97 (0.94-1.01); six studies; 1232 participants; I2 28%; p = 0.16; moderate-certainty evidence). Compared with neuromuscular blocking drugs, the use of remifentanil (2.0-4.0 μg.kg-1 ) makes little to no difference in terms of producing excellent tracheal intubation conditions (risk ratio (95%CI) 1.16 (0.72-1.87); two studies; 121 participants; I2 31%, p = 0.54; moderate-certainty of evidence). There was no evidence of an effect between remifentanil (2.0-4.0 μg.kg-1 ) and neuromuscular blocking drugs for bradycardia (risk ratio (95%CI) 0.44 (0.01-13.90); two studies; 997 participants; I2 81%; p = 0.64) and hypotension (risk ratio (95%CI) 1.05 (0.44-2.49); three studies; 1071 participants; I2 92%; p = 0.92). However, the evidence for these two outcomes was judged to be of very low-certainty. We conclude that remifentanil may be used as an alternative drug for tracheal intubation in cases where neuromuscular blocking drugs are best avoided, but more studies are required to evaluate the haemodynamic adverse events of remifentanil at different doses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The outcome of patients with resectable mucosal melanoma is poor. Toripalimab combined with axitinib has shown impressive results in metastatic mucosal melanoma with an objective response rate of 48.3% and a median progression-free survival of 7.5 months in a phase Ib trial. It was hypothesized that this combination administered in the neoadjuvant setting might induce a pathologic response in resectable mucosal melanoma, so we conducted this trial. PATIENTS AND METHODS This single-arm phase II trial enrolled patients with resectable mucosal melanoma. Patients received toripalimab 3 mg/kg once every 2 weeks (Q2W) plus axitinib 5 mg two times a day (b.i.d.) for 8 weeks as neoadjuvant therapy, then surgery and adjuvant toripalimab 3 mg/kg Q2W starting 2 ± 1weeks after surgery for 44 weeks. The primary endpoint was the pathologic response rate according to the International Neoadjuvant Melanoma Consortium recommendations. RESULTS Between August 2019 and October 2021, 29 patients were enrolled and received treatment, of whom 24 underwent resection. The median follow-up time was 34.2 months (95% confidence interval 20.4-48.0 months). The pathologic response rate was 33.3% (8/24; 4 pathological complete responses and 4 pathological partial responses). The median event-free survival for all patients was 11.1 months (95% confidence interval 5.3-16.9 months). The median overall survival was not reached. Neoadjuvant therapy was tolerable with 8 (27.5%) grade 3-4 treatment-related adverse events and no treatment-related deaths. Tissue samples of 17 patients at baseline and after surgery were collected (5 responders and 12 nonresponders). Multiplex immunohistochemistry demonstrated a significant increase in CD3+ (P = 0.0032) and CD3+CD8+ (P = 0.0038) tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes after neoadjuvant therapy, particularly in pathological responders. CONCLUSIONS Neoadjuvant toripalimab combined with axitinib in resectable mucosal melanoma demonstrated a promising pathologic response rate with significantly increased infiltrating CD3+ and CD3+CD8+ T cells after therapy.

Abstract
This study aims to understand the dynamic changes in driving risks in highway tunnel groups. Real-world driving experiments were conducted, collecting pupil area data to measure pupil size oscillations using the Percentage of Pupil Area Variable (PPAV) metric. The analysis focused on investigating relative pupil size fluctuations to explore trends in driving risk fluctuations within tunnel groups. The objective was to identify accident-prone areas and key factors influencing driving risks, providing insights for safety improvements. The findings revealed an overall "whipping effect" phenomenon in driving risk changes within tunnel groups. Differences were observed between interior tunnel areas and open sections, including adjacent, approach, and departure zones. Higher driving risks were associated with locations closer to the tail end of the tunnel group and shorter exit departure sections. Targeted safety improvement designs should consider fluctuation patterns in different directions, with attention to tunnels at the tail end. In open sections, increased travel distance and lengths of upstream and downstream tunnels raised driving risks, while longer open zones improved driving risks. Driving direction and sequence had minimal impact on risks. By integrating driver vision, tunnel characteristics, and the environment, this study identified high-risk areas and critical factors, providing guidance for monitoring and improving driving risks in tunnel groups. The findings have practical implications for the operation and safety management of tunnel groups.

Abstract
VLF magneto-electric (ME) antennas have gained attention for their compact size and high radiation efficiency in lossy conductive environments. However, the need for a large DC magnetic field bias presents challenges for miniaturization, limiting portability. This study introduces a self-biased ME antenna with an asymmetric design using two magneto materials, inducing a magnetization grading effect that reduces the resonant frequency during bending. Operating principles are explored, and performance parameters, including the radiation mechanism, intensity and driving power, are experimentally assessed. Leveraging its excellent direct and converse magneto-electric effect, the antenna proves adept at serving as both a transmitter and a receiver. The results indicate that, at 2.09 mW and a frequency of 24.47 kHz, the antenna has the potential to achieve a 2.44 pT magnetic flux density at a 3 m distance. A custom modulation-demodulation circuit is employed, applying 2ASK and 2PSK to validate communication capability at baseband signals of 10 Hz and 100 Hz. This approach offers a practical strategy for the lightweight and compact design of VLF communication systems.

Abstract
As one of the most common complications of cancer or its treatment, cancer-related pain can negatively affect the functional status and quality of life of patients. Pain management for cancer patients in China started later than that in developed countries. After 30 years of efforts by health authorities and medical professionals, cancer pain management in China has made great progress. However, with the accelerated aging of the Chinese population, the increasing incidence of cancer, the prolonged survival of cancer patients, and the strengthening of people's expectations for high-quality life, there is still a gap between the development level of cancer pain management in China and the actual health needs of cancer patients. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the current state and future challenges facing the integrated management of cancer pain in China. Simultaneously, it offers a prospective outlook on future developments, thereby furnishing vital information for professionals engaged in the field of cancer pain management.

Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) possess therapeutic potential for ischemic brain injury, and the chemokine CXCL12 has been shown to enhance their functional properties. However, the cumulative effects of ASCs when combined with various structures of CXCL12 on ischemic stroke and its underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we genetically engineered mouse adipose-derived ASCs with CXCL12 variants and transplanted them to the infarct region in a mice transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) model of stroke. We subsequently compared the post-ischemic stroke efficacy of ASC-mCXCL12 with ASC-dCXCL12, ASC-wtCXCL12, and unmodified ASCs. Neurobehavior recovery was assessed using modified neurological severity scores, the hanging wire test, and the elevated body swing test. Changes at the tissue level were evaluated through cresyl violet and immunofluorescent staining, while molecular level alterations were examined via Western blot and real-time PCR. The results of the modified neurological severity score and cresyl violet staining indicated that both ASC-mCXCL12 and ASC-dCXCL12 treatment enhanced neurobehavioral recovery and mitigated brain atrophy at the third and fifth weeks post-tMCAO. Additionally, we observed that ASC-mCXCL12 and ASC-dCXCL12 promoted angiogenesis and neurogenesis, accompanied by an increased expression of bFGF and VEGF in the peri-infarct area of the brain. Notably, in the third week after tMCAO, the ASC-mCXCL12 exhibited superior outcomes compared to ASC-dCXCL12. However, when treated with the CXCR4 antagonist AMD3100, the beneficial effects of ASC-mCXCL12 were reversed. The AMD3100-treated group demonstrated worsened neurological function, aggravated edema volume, and brain atrophy. This outcome is likely attributed to the interaction of monomeric CXCL12 with CXCR4, which regulates the recruitment of bFGF and VEGF. This study introduces an innovative approach to enhance the therapeutic potential of ASCs in treating ischemic stroke by genetically engineering them with the monomeric structure of CXCL12.

Abstract
Neuroprotection is one of the core treatment strategies for brain injuries including traumatic brain injury (TBI). NR2B9c is a promising neuroprotective peptide but its clinical translation is limited because of poor brain penetrability. Exosomes are naturally occurring nanovesicles having therapeutic potential for TBI as well as an efficient drug delivery carrier to the brain. Here, we engineered exosomes with neuron targeting peptide rabies virus glycoprotein (RVG29) via bio-orthogonal click chemistry technique and loaded it with NR2B9c, developing RVG-ExoNR2B9c. RVG29 conjugated exosome had higher neuron targeting efficiency compared to naïve exosomes both in vivo and in vitro. RVG-ExoNR2B9c had great cytoprotective effect against oxygen glucose deprived Neuro2a cells. Intravenous administration of RVG-ExoNR2B9c significantly improved behavioral outcomes and reduced the lesion volume after TBI injury in a mice controlled cortical impact model. Due to their multifunctionality and significant efficacy, we anticipate that RVG-ExoNR2B9c have the potential to be translated both as therapeutic agent as well as cargo delivery system to the brain for the treatment of TBI.

Abstract
Objective As a pseudokinase, Tribbles Pseudokinase 3 (TRIB3) is implicated in a wide array of biological processes, including cell signal transduction, metabolic regulation, stress responses, and immune regulation. While its significant role in the immune regulation of certain cancers is well-established, the specific functions and impact of TRIB3 in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC) remain unclear. Methods The data of RNA-sequence was acquired from the TCGA database to analyze the expression patterns of TRIB3 and elucidate its prognostic value in HNSC patients. Furthermore, the correlation between TRIB3 and tumor mutation burden, clinical data, immune checkpoint genes, and immune cell infiltration was explored. Moreover, the TRIB3 location in tumor tissues and subcellular structures was identified via Tisch in the HPA database, and the potential protein interaction molecules for TRIB3 were elucidated in the STRING database. The potential TRIB3 gene function was assessed using gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA), whereas the TRIB3 expression levels in clinical HNSC samples were verified by RT-qPCR and immunohistochemistry. the role of TRIB3 in enhancing the malignant behavior of HNSC cells was validated in vitro through a series of methods including RT-qPCR, CCK8 assay, wound healing assay, and transwell assay. Results It was revealed that TRIB3 was significantly overexpressed in the nucleus and cytoplasm of HNSC. Furthermore, this overexpression markedly enhanced the migration ability of tumor cells. As an independent prognostic factor, TRIB3 was associated with advanced tumor T stage and was significantly involved with tumor mutation burden and immune cell infiltration in HNSC. Moreover, it was observed that TRIB3 was not a predicted factor for PD1/PDL1 and ATL4 inhibitor treatment; however, it was substantially correlated with various immune evasion-related genes in HNSC. Conclusion TRIB3 could serve as a potential prognostic marker for HNSC and might be a key gene mediating HNSC immune evasion.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) with intracardiac metastasis is rare, and here we reported a patient with intracardiac metastasis of high-risk and refractory gestational choriocarcinoma and reviewed relevant literatures. CASE PRESENTATION A 37-year-old woman presented with vaginal bleeding and high level of β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) at 199,060 (mIU/mL). It was clinically diagnosed with gestational choriocarcinoma. The patient initially received eight cycles of chemotherapy but unsatisfactory response was observed, and the level of β-hCG still ranged between 5000 and 10,000. Then there was found intracardiac masses in the right atrium (2.6*1.7 cm), anterior chordae tendineae of the tricuspid valve (1.4*0.7 cm) and the right ventricle (4.1*2.9 cm) by ultrasonic cardiogram (UCG). PET/CT highly suspected the intracardiac metastasis of choriocarcinoma (SUVmax = 9.3) and no disease was found in the lung and pelvis. The patient undertook complete intracardiac masses resection. The pathology confirmed the intracardiac metastasis of disease. After a week of operation, the UCG found a 5.4*4.2 cm mass in the right atrium again. Considering the poor prognosis, the patient received palliative care and eventually died of disease progression. CONCLUSION Intracardiac metastasis of GTN is an aggressive sign of disease. Patients can benefit from chemotherapy and surgery. Future investigation of PD-1 immunotherapy combines with chemotherapy are expected to improve the prognosis in this group of patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to analyze the role of estrogen in noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) and uncover underlying mechanisms. METHODS An ovariectomized Sprague-Dawley rat model (OVX) was constructed to investigate the hearing threshold and auditory latency before and after noise exposure using the auditory brainstem response (ABR) test. The morphological changes were assessed using immunofluorescence, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Proteomics and bioinformatics were used to analyze the mechanism. The findings were further verified through western blot and Luminex liquid suspension chip technology. RESULTS After noise exposure, OVX rats exhibited substantially elevated hearing thresholds. A conspicuous delay in ABR wave I latency was observed, alongside increased loss of outer hair cells, severe collapse of stereocilia and pronounced deformation of the epidermal plate. Accordingly, OVX rats with estrogen supplementation exhibited tolerance to NIHL. Additionally, a remarkable upregulation of the thrombospondin 1 (Tsp1)-CD47 axis in OVX rats was discovered and verified. CONCLUSIONS OVX rats were more susceptible to NIHL, and the protective effect of estrogen was achieved through regulation of the Tsp1-CD47 axis. This study presents a novel mechanism through which estrogen regulates NIHL and offers a potential intervention strategy for the clinical treatment of NIHL.

Abstract
Thermal shift assay (TSA) is a versatile biophysical technique for studying protein interactions. Here, we report a free, open-source software tool TSAR (Thermal Shift Analysis in R) to expedite and automate the analysis of thermal shift data derived either from individual experiments or large screens of chemical libraries. The TSAR package incorporates multiple, dynamic workflows to facilitate the analysis of TSA data and returns publication-ready graphics or processed results. Further, the package includes a graphic user interface (GUI) that enables easy use by non-programmers, aiming to simplify TSA analysis while diversifying visualization. To exemplify the utility of TSAR we screened a chemical library of vitamins to identify molecules that interact with the capsid protein (CA) of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). Our data show that hexameric CA interacts with folic acid in vitro.

Abstract
Selenocompounds protect against damage to healthy cells and induce the death of tumor cells by apoptosis; for this reason, they are attractive compounds for cancer research. In the present study, two series of novel phenoxy-((phenylethynyl) selanyl) propan-2-ol derivatives were synthesized, and their anti-proliferation activities were evaluated. Of the 23 compounds synthesized, most showed potent anti-proliferative activity against human cancer cell lines. Specifically, compounds 3h, 3g, and 3h-2, which had a 2- or 4-position halogen substituent on 1-((phenylethynyl)selanyl)-3-phenoxypropan-2-ol, exhibited the best anti-proliferative activity against tumor cells. Flow cytometry demonstrated that 3h, 3g, and 3h-2 induced G2/M phase arrest and apoptosis in A549 cells. Cellular studies demonstrated that the induction of apoptosis by 3h correlated with changes in the expression of cell cycle-related proteins and apoptosis-related proteins. Xenograft tumor experiments in nude mice revealed that compound 3h has antitumor effects in vivo and no evident toxic effects in nude mice. In addition, compound 3h alleviated cisplatin-induced liver and kidney damage. These findings uncover the applicability of compound 3h as a novel lead compound for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that has still not been effectively treated. Paeoniflorin is a traditional Chinese medicine with potential neuroprotective effects against brain injury; however, the beneficial effects and mechanisms of action in AD have not been clarified. We aimed to explore the mechanisms of action of paeoniflorin in AD using network pharmacology and experimental validation. Network pharmacology analysis revealed 30 candidate targets through the intersection of the targets of paeoniflorin and related genes in AD, which were mainly enriched in oxidative stress and inflammation. Moreover, key targets of paeoniflorin against AD, namely Nrf2 (encoded by NFE2L2) and TLR4, were screened and found to be closely related to oxidative stress and inflammation. Subsequent in vivo experiments revealed that paeoniflorin treatment improved the cognition of APP/PS1 mice by ameliorating oxidative stress and neuroinflammation, which were associated with the upregulation of Nrf2 and HO1, and the downregulation of TLR4. Collectively, the present study demonstrates that paeoniflorin alleviates cognitive impairment in AD by regulating oxidative stress and neuroinflammation, and that Nrf2, HO1, and TLR4 could be key targets.

Abstract
Delivering large therapeutic molecules via the blood-brain barrier to treat ischemic stroke remains challenging. NR2B9c is a potent neuroprotective peptide but it's safe and targeted delivery to the brain requires an efficient, natural, and non-immunogenic delivery technique. Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) have shown great potential as a non-immunogenic, natural cargo delivery system; however, tailoring of its inefficient brain targeting is desired. Here, we coupled rabies virus glycoprotein 29 with sEVs surface via bio-orthogonal click chemistry reactions, followed by loading of NR2B9c, ultimately generating stroke-specific therapeutic COCKTAIL (sEVs-COCKTAIL). Primary neurons and Neuro-2a cells were cultured for in vitro and transient middle cerebral artery occlusion model was used for in vivo studies to evaluate neuron targeting and anti-ischemic stroke potential of the sEVs-COCKTAIL. Bio-clickable sEVs were selectively taken up by neurons but not glial cells. In the in vitro ischemic stroke model of oxygen-glucose deprivation, the sEVs-COCKTAIL exhibited remarkable potential against reactive oxygen species and cellular apoptosis. In vivo studies further demonstrated the brain targeting and increased half-life of bio-clickable sEVs, delivering NR2B9c to the ischemic brain and reducing stroke injury. Treatment with the sEVs-COCKTAIL significantly increased behavioral recovery and reduced neuronal apoptosis after transient middle cerebral artery occlusion. NR2B9c was delivered to neurons binding to post-synaptic density protein-95, inhibiting N-methyl-d-Aspartate receptor-mediated over production of oxidative stress and mitigating protein B-cell lymphoma 2 and P38 proteins expression. Our results provide an efficient and biocompatible approach to a targeted delivery system, which is a promising modality for stroke therapy.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the safety of double and a half layered esophagojejunal anastomosis in radical gastrectomy. Methods: This prospective, multi-center, single-arm study was initiated by the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University in June 2021 (CRAFT Study, NCT05282563). Participating institutions included Nanyang Central Hospital, Zhumadian Central Hospital, Luoyang Central Hospital, First Affiliated Hospital of Henan Polytechnic University, First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University, Luohe Central Hospital, the People's Hospital of Hebi, First People's Hospital of Shangqiu, Anyang Tumor Hospital, First People's Hospital of Pingdingshan, and Zhengzhou Central Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University. Inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) gastric adenocarcinoma confirmed by preoperative gastroscopy;(2) preoperative imaging assessment indicated that R0 resection was feasible; (3) preoperative assessment showed no contraindications to surgery;(4) esophagojejunostomy planned during the procedure; (5) patients volunteered to participate in this study and gave their written informed consent; (6) ECOG score 0-1; and (7) ASA score I-III. Exclusion criteria were as follows: (1) history of upper abdominal surgery (except laparoscopic cholecystectomy);(2) history of gastric surgery (except endoscopic submucosal dissection and endoscopic mucosal resection); (3) pregnancy or lactation;(4) emergency surgery for gastric cancer-related complications (perforation, hemorrhage, obstruction); (5) other malignant tumors within 5 years or coexisting malignant tumors;(6) arterial embolism within 6 months, such as angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, and cerebrovascular accident; and (7) comorbidities or mental health abnormalities that could affect patients' participation in the study. Patients were eliminated from the study if: (1) radical gastrectomy could not be completed; (2) end-to-side esophagojejunal anastomosis was not performed during the procedure; or (3) esophagojejunal anastomosis reinforcement was not possible. Double and a half layered esophagojejunal anastomosis was performed as follows: (1) Open surgery: the full thickness of the anastomosis is continuously sutured, followed by embedding the seromuscular layer with barbed or 3-0 absorbable sutures. The anastomosis is sutured with an average of six to eight stitches. (2) Laparoscopic surgery: the anastomosis is strengthened by counterclockwise full-layer sutures. Once the anastomosis has been sutured to the right posterior aspect of the anastomosis, the jejunum stump is pulled to the right and the anastomosis turned over to continue to complete reinforcement of the posterior wall. The suture interval is approximately 5 mm. After completing the full-thickness suture, the anastomosis is embedded in the seromuscular layer. Relevant data of patients who had undergone radical gastrectomy in the above 12 centers from June 2021 were collected and analyzed. The primary outcome was safety (e.g., postoperative complications, and treatment). Other studied variables included details of surgery (e.g., surgery time, intraoperative bleeding), postoperative recovery (postoperative time to passing flatus and oral intake, length of hospital stay), and follow-up conditions (quality of life as assessed by Visick scores). Result: [1] From June 2021 to September 2022,457 patients were enrolled, including 355 men and 102 women of median age 60.8±10.1 years and BMI 23.7±3.2 kg/m2. The tumors were located in the upper stomach in 294 patients, mid stomach in 139; and lower stomach in 24. The surgical procedures comprised 48 proximal gastrectomies and 409 total gastrectomies. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy was administered to 85 patients. Other organs were resected in 85 patients. The maximum tumor diameter was 4.3±2.2 cm, number of excised lymph nodes 28.3±15.2, and number of positive lymph nodes five (range one to four. As to pathological stage,83 patients had Stage I disease, 128 Stage II, 237 Stage III, and nine Stage IV. [2] The studied surgery-related variables were as follows: The operation was successfully completed in all patients, 352 via a transabdominal approach, 25 via a transhiatus approach, and 80 via a transthoracoabdominal approach. The whole procedure was performed laparoscopically in 53 patients (11.6%), 189 (41.4%) underwent laparoscopic-assisted surgery, and 215 (47.0%) underwent open surgery. The median intraoperative blood loss was 200 (range, 10-1 350) mL, and the operating time 215.6±66.7 minutes. The anastomotic reinforcement time was 2 (7.3±3.9) minutes for laparoscopic-assisted surgery, 17.6±1.7 minutes for total laparoscopy, and 6.0±1.2 minutes for open surgery. [3] The studied postoperative variables were as follows: The median time to postoperative passage of flatus was 3.1±1.1 days and the postoperative gastrointestinal angiography time 6 (range, 4-13) days. The median time to postoperative oral intake was 7 (range, 2-14) days, and the postoperative hospitalization time 15.8±6.7 days. [4] The safety-related variables were as follows: In total, there were 184 (40.3%) postoperative complications. These comprised esophagojejunal anastomosis complications in 10 patients (2.2%), four (0.9%) being anastomotic leakage (including two cases of subclinical leakage and two of clinical leakage; all resolved with conservative treatment); and six patients (1.3%) with anastomotic stenosis (two who underwent endoscopic balloon dilation 21 and 46 days after surgery, the others improved after a change in diet). There was no anastomotic bleeding. Non-anastomotic complications occurred in 174 patients (38.1%). All patients attended for follow-up at least once, the median follow-up time being 10 (3-18) months. Visick grades were as follows: Class I, 89.1% (407/457); Class II, 7.9% (36/457); Class III, 2.6% (12/457); and Class IV 0.4% (2/457). Conclusion: Double and a half layered esophagojejunal anastomosis in radical gastrectomy is safe and feasible.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the vaccination coverage of the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) in China from 2017 to 2021. Methods: Using the reported number of PCV13 administrated doses from 2017 to 2021 and the population data from 31 provinces in China, which were collected by the Immunization Program Information System and summarized data at different levels (prefecture, provincial, and national). Collecting batch release data of PCV13 during the same period through the official website of the National Institutes for Food and Drug Control. The average coverage level of PCV13 was calculated by comparing the number of PCV13 vaccinations reported annually to the number of births in that year, and the spatial auto-correlation analysis was conducted in 2021 at the prefecture level. The coverage of PCV13 vaccination was estimated by the total vaccine doses administered each year divided by the number of newborn in the year, as of the administrated dose number per 100 people. Results: From March 2017 to December 2020, the total batch release of PCV13 was 20.06 million, with a total of 71.54, 384.75, 475.45, and 10.8886 million doses each year. During the same period, PCV13 reported doses were 20.2369 million and the vaccination doses from 2017 to 2021 were 4.08, 170.46, 407.52, 599.77, and 8.4185 million doses, respectively. From 2017 to 2021, the ratio of PCV13 doses administrated per 100 infants in each year was 0.25, 10.26, 23.81, 38.16, and 69.90 doses per 100 people, respectively. The range of the ratio in each province increased from 3.85 doses in 2017 to 264.41 doses per 100 people in 2021. The spatial auto-correlation analysis results showed that based on prefecture-level cities, there was spatial clustering in a certain area of PCV13 coverage from 2017 to 2021, and the spatial correlation in 2021 was the highest. The hotspot analysis showed that the hotspot areas with high coverage levels of PCV13 were concentrated in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Fujian and their surrounding areas. The cold spots with low vaccine coverage were concentrated in Yunnan, Qinghai, Tibet, and their surrounding areas. Conclusion: The average coverage level of PCV13 is low in China with significant regional differences.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Survivors of head and neck cancer (HNC) have an increased risk of stroke. However, the evidence on the risk of stroke in various subpopulations of HNC defined by patient, disease and treatment factors remains unclear. This study aimed to determine whether age-standardized incidence rate ratios (SIRs) and risk differences (SIRDs) of stroke varied across different subpopulations of survivors of HNC. MATERIALS/METHODS We used data from the national stroke and cancer registries to identify all cases of HNC who developed their first stroke after HNC diagnosis from January 2005 to December 2020. We estimated the SIRs and SIRDs of stroke in various subgroups of HNC defined by patient, disease and treatment factors using the Singapore general population as the reference group. RESULTS A total of 8839 cases of HNC were identified and 308 cases (3.4%) developed stroke after HNC diagnosis at median follow up of 42.5 months (interquartile range 15.0 - 94.5 months). The overall SIR and SIRD were 2.46 (95% CI 2.21 - 2.74) and 4.11 cases per 1000 person-years (PY) (95% CI 3.37 - 4.85). The SIR and SIRD were higher among those post five years from HNC diagnosis compared to those with 5 or fewer years from HNC diagnosis (SIR: 3.92 (3.36 - 4.58) vs 1.84 (1.59 - 2.14), SIRD: 6.64 (5.26 - 8.03) vs 2.65 (1.80 - 3.50) cases per 1000 PY). The SIR was highest for those less than 40 years old (< 40 years: 30.55; 40 - 49 years: 5.84; 50 - 59 years: 3.13; 60 - 69 years: 2.38, 70 - 79 years: 1.53, > = 80 years: 1.41) while SIRD was highest for those with age 80 years and above (< 40 years: 2.16; 40 - 49 years: 3.44, 50 - 59 years: 4.25, 60 - 69 years: 5.55, 70 - 79 years: 4.16, > = 80 years: 6.14). Among those who had treatment within 6 months of HNC diagnosis, the SIR and SIRD were significantly higher among those who had primary radiation treatment approach (radiation only, radiation and chemotherapy) (SIR: 3.01 (2.64 - 3.43), SIRD: 5.12 (4.18 - 6.29) cases per 1000 PY) compared to primary surgery treatment approach (surgery only, surgery and radiation, surgery and chemotherapy and radiation) (SIR: 1.64 (1.31 - 2.05), SIRD: 1.84 (0.92 - 3.67)). CONCLUSION The risk of stroke varied across different subpopulations of survivors of HNC with higher risk observed in those surviving five years post HNC diagnosis, less than 40 years old or received primary radiation treatment approach within 6 months from HNC diagnosis. A risk based prophylactic measures for stroke should be considered for different subpopulations of survivors of HNC.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) There is evidence from RCTs demonstrating that our current models of CGA guided care can reduce treatment related toxicity effectively. However, it is unclear if CGA guided care can improve OS and HRQL. We aimed to determine the effect of CGA guided care compared with usual care on OS and HRQL. MATERIALS/METHODS We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, CENTRAL and CINAHL from date of inception to October 2022 for RCTs comparing CGA guided care with usual care for patients with cancer who were 60 years old and greater on OS and HRQL. We assessed the risk of bias using Cochrane ROB 2 tool. We performed the meta-analysis using random-effects models. The I2 statistic was adopted to assess heterogeneity between studies. We adopted the Synthesis without meta-analysis approach for data not amenable for meta-analysis. The certainty of evidence was rated using the GRADE approach. This study is registered with Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. RESULTS We found 15 eligible RCTs including 3507 participants. There are variations in types of CGA used with 4 trials using CGA to recommend oncology treatment regimen and 10 trials making no recommendation on oncology treatment. The implementation of CGA recommendations were carried out by a geriatrician in 14 trials, but by the primary oncologist in 1 trial. Six, five and four RCTs were judged to have low, unclear and high risk of bias respectively. Eleven and six RCTs reported OS and HRQL outcomes respectively. There was no significant difference between CGA guided and usual care for OS (Hazard Ratio 1.02, 95% CI (0.90 to 1.15), I2 = 0%; moderate certainty). There was significant variation in the measurement of HRQL in terms of instruments, summary measures and time points. EORTC QLQ C30 and ELD 14 were used in 3 RCTs. The effects of CGA guided care on HRQL were inconsistent. Two trials using FACT-G or Elderly Functional Index (ELFI) reported significant improvement in HRQL at 3 and 6 months post randomization. Meta-analysis of the mean difference in the change of the EORTC QLQ C30 and E14 HRQL scores relative to baseline at 6 months post randomization demonstrated no significant difference between CGA guided and usual care for HRQL across various domains (moderate certainty evidence). CONCLUSION The current models of CGA guided care did not improve OS and had variable effects on HRQL when compared to usual care in older patients with cancer. The inconsistent effects of CGA guided care on HRQL suggest that CGA guided care may have more significant effects on the social and functional outcomes domains, aspects of HRQL that is predominantly measured in FACT-G and ELFI score respectively. There is also heterogeneity in how CGAs are performed and implemented. Future research should focus on developing new models of CGA guided care to improve OS and HRQL.

Abstract
Spastic paraplegia type 76 (SPG76) is a subtype of hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) caused by calpain-1 (CAPN1) mutations. Our study described the phenotypic and genetic characteristics of three families with spastic ataxia due to various CAPN1 mutations and further explored the pathogenesis of the two novel mutations. The three patients were 48, 39, and 48 years old, respectively. Patients 1 and 3 were from consanguineous families, while patient 2 was sporadic. Physical examination showed hypertonia, hyperreflexia, and Babinski signs in the lower limbs. Patients 2 and 3 additionally had dysarthria and depression. CAPN1 mutations were identified by whole-exome sequencing, followed by Sanger sequencing and co-segregation analysis within the family. Functional examination of the newly identified mutations was further explored. Two homozygous mutations were detected in patient 1 (c.213dupG, p.D72Gfs*95) and patient 3 (c.1729+1G>A) with HSP, respectively. Patient 2 had compound heterozygous mutations c.853C>T (p.R285X) and c.1324G>A (p.G442S). Western blotting revealed the p.D72Gfs*95 with a smaller molecular weight than WT and p.G442S. In vitro, the wild-type calpain-1 is mostly located in the cytoplasm and colocalized with tubulin by immunostaining. However, p.D72Gfs*95 and p.G442S abnormally formed intracellular aggregation, with little colocalization with tubulin. In this study, we identified three cases with SPG76, due to four various CAPN1 mutations, presenting lower limb spasticity and ataxia, with or without bulbar involvement and emotional disorder. Among these, c.213dupG and c.1324G>A are first identified in this paper. The genotype-phenotype correlation of the SPG76 cases reported worldwide was further summarized.

Abstract
The unusual anisotropy of the spin glass (SG) transition in the pseudobrookite system Fe2TiO5has been interpreted as arising from an induced, van der Waals-like, interaction among magnetic clusters. Here we present susceptibility (χ) and specific heat data (C) for Fe2TiO5diluted with non-magnetic Ga, (Fe1-pGap)2TiO5, for disorder parameterp= 0, 0.11, and 0.42, and elastic neutron scattering data forp= 0.20. A uniform suppression ofTgis observed upon increasingp, along with a value ofχTgthat increases asTgdecreases, i.e.dχ(Tg)/dTg<0We also observeCT∝T2in the low temperature limit. The observed behavior places (Fe1-pGap)2TiO5in the category of a strongly geometrically frustrated SG.

Abstract
Nucleic acid condensates are essential for various biological processes and have numerous applications in nucleic acid nanotechnology, gene therapy, and mRNA vaccines. However, unlike the in vivo condensation that is dependent on motor proteins, the in vitro condensation efficiency remains to be improved. Here, we proposed a hydrophobic interaction-driven mechanism for condensing long nucleic acid chains using atomically precise hydrophobic gold nanoclusters (Au NCs). We found that hydrophobic Au NCs could condense long single-stranded DNA or RNA to form composites of spherical nanostructures, which further assembled into bead-shaped suprastructures in the presence of excessive Au NCs. Thus, suprastructures displayed gel-like behaviors, and Au NCs could diffuse freely inside the condensates, which resemble the collective motions of condensin complexes inside chromosomes. The dynamic hydrophobic interactions between Au NCs and bases allow for the reversible release of nucleic acids in the presence of mild triggering agents. Our method represents a significant advancement toward the development of more efficient and versatile nucleic acid condensation techniques.

Abstract
Membrane curvature reflects physical forces operating on the lipid membrane, which plays important roles in cellular processes. Here, we design a mechanosensitive DNA (MSD) nanomachine that mimics natural mechanosensitive PIEZO channels to convert the membrane tension changes of lipid vesicles with different sizes into fluorescence signals in real time. The MSD nanomachine consists of an archetypical six-helix-bundle DNA nanopore, cholesterol-based membrane anchors, and a solvatochromic fluorophore, spiropyran (SP). We find that the DNA nanopore effectively amplifies subtle variations of the membrane tension, which effectively induces the isomerization of weakly emissive SP into highly emissive merocyanine isomers for visualizing membrane tension changes. By measuring the membrane tension via the fluorescence of MSD nanomachine, we establish the correlation between the membrane tension and the curvature that follows the Young-Laplace equation. This DNA nanotechnology-enabled strategy opens new routes to studying membrane mechanics in physiological and pathological settings.

Tumor specimens were obtained from 1130 patients with colorectal cancer who had undergone surgery or biopsy and had no other concurrent malignancies at Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University from December 2021 to November 2022. Organoid culture was performed on 1231 tumor tissue samples. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the factors that might have influenced the rate of successful organoid culture of colorectal cancer tissue samples. Results: The median (range) duration of organoid culture was 7 (3-12) days. The overall rate of successful culture was 76.3% (939/1231). The rate of successful organoid cultures varied according to the sampling site, malignant ascites having the highest success rate (96.4%, 27/28), followed by liver metastases (83.1%, 54/65), lung metastases (8/10), primary tumors (76.0%, 816/1074), omental metastases (10/14), peritoneal metastases (61.5%, 16/26), ovarian metastases (3/5), and lymph node metastases (5/9). The difference in rates of successful organoid culture between primary tumors and malignant ascites was statistically significant (P=0.012), whereas none of the other rates of successful organoid culture success differed significantly (all P>0.05). The rate of successful organoid culture was 96.4% (27/28) for malignant ascites obtained by abdominal puncture, 76.5% (864/1130) for surgical specimens, and 65.8% (48/73) for endoscopic biopsies; these differences are statistically significant (χ2=10.773, P=0.005). The rate of successful organoid culture was 62.5% (40/64) in the neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy group, which is significantly lower than in the non-adjuvant (76.9%, 787/1023) and chemotherapy groups (77.8%, 112/144) (χ2=7.134, P=0.028). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that endoscopic biopsy (OR=0.557, 95%CI: 0.335-0.924, P=0.024) and neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (OR=0.483, 95%CI: 0.285-0.820, P=0.007) were independent risk factors for failure of organoid culture of colorectal cancer samples. Malignant ascites (OR=8.537, 95%CI:1.154-63.131,P=0.036) and abdominal puncture (OR=8.294, 95% CI: 1.112-61.882, P=0.039) were identified as independent protective factors. Conclusions: The rate of successful organoid culture was influenced by the sampling site, sampling method, and chemoradiotherapy. The rate of successful organoid culture was lower for endoscopic biopsies and in patients receiving preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, and higher for malignant ascites. We consider that culture of malignant ascites is preferable when peritoneal metastases are suspected.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Garlic (Allium sativum), the underground bulb of the Allium genus, has been consumed on Earth for thousands of years. Many clinical trials of garlic supplementation on components of metabolic syndrome (MetS) have emerged in recent years, but there is no consensus on the effect. This meta-analysis aimed at systematically evaluating the effect of garlic supplementation on components of MetS. METHODS In this meta-analysis, we searched Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane, Medline, Web of Science databases, and clinical trials online sites from inception to November 1, 2022, with language restrictions to English. We engaged participants > 18 years and eligible for the clinical diagnosis of MetS or those with metabolic disorders and garlic was the only intervention. Outcomes included waist circumference, and body mass index, triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, blood pressure, and fasting blood glucose. Meta-regression and subgroup analyses were conducted based on six covariates (total sample size, the mean age, the mean dose, the duration of intervention, the oral form of garlic, and the dietary intervention). RESULTS Results from 19 RCTs were included engaging 999 participants. Compared to placebo, garlic significantly reduced TG [SMD (95%CI) = -0.66 (-1.23, -0.09)], TC [SMD (95%CI) = -0.43 (-0.86, -0.01)], LDL [SMD (95%CI) = -0.44(-0.88, -0.01)], DBP [SMD (95%CI) = -1.33 (-2.14, -0.53)], BMI [SMD (95%CI) = -1.10(-1.90, -0.20)], and WC [SMD (95%CI) = -0.78(-1.09, -0.47)]. Meta-regression showed age and sample size are potential effect modifiers. CONCLUSION According to the results of meta-analysis, the modulatory effect of garlic on some MetS components is evident. More high-quality, large-scale RCTs are needed to confirm iat based on the high heterogeneity and potential publication bias of the current data.

Abstract
Wu Shou was a doctor in a medical family in Qiantang, Zhejiang in the Ming Dynasty. He was promoted as a medical officer in the local government and the Imperial Academy of Medicine. His work, considered a masterpiece Shang Han Yun Yao Quan Shu was published around 1505. The series consisted of four volumes. The main content of the book focused on the taxonomy study to the Treatise on Febrile Diseases (Shang Han Lun). Wu Shou was politically accused of being a person who pursued fame and fortune but lacked medical skills because of the conflicts and contradiction between medical officials and the political service system in the period of the Chenghua and Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty. However, his medical and academic thinking and skills for typhoid treatment shown in the book demonstrated that they were not as awful as what was described at that time.

Abstract
The direct infusion-shotgun proteome analysis (DI-SPA) alongside data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry achieved fast proteome identification and quantification without chromatographic separation. However, robust peptide identification and quantification (label and label-free) for the DI-SPA data is still insufficient. We find that in the absence of chromatography, the identification of DI-SPA can be boosted by extending acquisition cycles repeatedly and maximizing the utilization of the featured repetition characteristics, combined with the machine learning-based automatic peptide scoring strategy. Here, we present the repeat-enhancing featured ion-guided stoichiometry (RE-FIGS), a complete and compact solution to (repeated) DI-SPA data. Using our strategy, the peptide identification can be improved above 30% with high reproducibility (70.0%). Notably, the label-free quantification of repeated DI-SPA can be successfully obtained with high accuracy (mean median error, 0.108) and high reproducibility (median error, 0.001). We believe our RE-FIGS method could boost the broad application of the (repeated) DI-SPA method and offer a new choice for proteomic analysis.

Abstract
Objective: To understand the distribution of genotypes and sub-genotypes of HBV in different ethnic groups in China. Methods: The HBsAg positive samples were selected by stratified multi-stage cluster sampling from the sample base of national HBV sero-epidemiological survey in 2020 for the amplification of S gene of HBV by nested PCR. A phylogeny tree was constructed to determine the genotypes and sub-genotypes of HBV. The distribution of genotypes and sub-genotypes of HBV were analyzed comprehensively by using laboratory data and demographic data. Results: A total of 1 539 positive samples from 15 ethnic groups were successfully amplified and analyzed, and 5 genotypes (B, C, D, I and C/D) were detected. The proportion of genotype B was higher in ethnic group of Han (74.52%, 623/836), Zhuang (49.28%, 34/69), Yi (53.19%, 25/47), Miao (94.12%, 32/34), Buyi (81.48%, 22/27). The proportions of genotype C were higher in ethnic groups of Yao (70.91%, 39/55). Genotype D was the predominant genotype in Uygur (83.78%, 31/37). Genotype C/D were detected in Tibetan (92.35%,326/353). In this study, 11 cases of genotype I were detected, 8 of which were distributed in Zhuang nationality. Except for Tibetan, sub-genotype B2 accounted for more than 80.00% in genotype B in all ethnic groups. The proportions of sub-genotype C2 were higher in 8 ethnic groups, i.e. Han, Tibetan, Yi, Uygur, Mongolian, Manchu, Hui and Miao. The proportions of sub-genotype C5 were higher in ethnic groups of Zhuang (55.56%, 15/27) and Yao (84.62%, 33/39). For genotype D, sub-genotype D3 was detected in Yi ethnic group and sub-genotype D1 was detected in both Uygur and Kazak. The proportions of sub-genotype C/D1 and C/D2 in Tibetan were 43.06% (152/353) and 49.29% (174/353). For all the 11 cases of genotype I infection, only sub-genotype I1 was detected. Conclusions: Five genotypes and 15 sub-genotypes of HBV were found in 15 ethnic groups. There were significant differences in the distribution of genotypes and sub-genotypes of HBV among different ethnic groups.

Abstract
Identifying cancer-related differentially expressed genes provides significant information for diagnosing tumors, predicting prognoses, and effective treatments. Recently, deep learning methods have been used to perform gene differential expression analysis using microarray-based high-throughput gene profiling and have achieved good results. In this study, we proposed a new robust multiple-datasets-based semi-supervised learning model, MSSL, to perform tumor type classification and candidate cancer-specific biomarkers discovery across multiple tumor types and multiple datasets, which addressed the following long-lasting obstacles: (1) the data volume of the existing single dataset is not enough to fully exert the advantages of deep learning; (2) a large number of datasets from different research institutions cannot be effectively used due to inconsistent internal variances and low quality; (3) relatively uncommon cancers have limited effects on deep learning methods. In our article, we applied MSSL to The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Gene Expression Comprehensive Database (GEO) pan-cancer normalized-level3 RNA-seq data and got 97.6% final classification accuracy, which had a significant performance leap compared with previous approaches. Finally, we got the ranking of the importance of the corresponding genes for each cancer type based on classification results and validated that the top genes selected in this way were biologically meaningful for corresponding tumors and some of them had been used as biomarkers, which showed the efficacy of our method.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Drug-target interaction (DTI) prediction plays an important role in drug discovery and repositioning. However, most of the computational methods used for identifying relevant DTIs do not consider the invariance of the nearest neighbour relationships between drugs or targets. In other words, they do not take into account the invariance of the topological relationships between nodes during representation learning. It may limit the performance of the DTI prediction methods. RESULTS Here, we propose a novel graph convolutional autoencoder-based model, named SDGAE, to predict DTIs. As the graph convolutional network cannot handle isolated nodes in a network, a pre-processing step was applied to reduce the number of isolated nodes in the heterogeneous network and facilitate effective exploitation of the graph convolutional network. By maintaining the graph structure during representation learning, the nearest neighbour relationships between nodes in the embedding space remained as close as possible to the original space. CONCLUSIONS Overall, we demonstrated that SDGAE can automatically learn more informative and robust feature vectors of drugs and targets, thus exhibiting significantly improved predictive accuracy for DTIs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe myeloid sarcoma (MS) that mimic gynecological tumors and provide guidelines for improving the diagnosis and treatment of patients. METHODS This case series study retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathological characteristics and oncological outcomes of female patients who were histologically diagnosed with MS after initially presenting with reproductive-system tumors at the Peking Union Medical College Hospital between January 2000 and March 2022. RESULTS There were eight cases in which MS mimicked cervical cancer, ovarian cancer, or hysteromyoma. Six patients had isolated MS, and the other two had acute myeloid leukemia (AML)-M2. The average age was 39.00 ± 14.26. They each sought advice from a gynecological oncologist at the initial visit, complaining of irregular bleeding (3/8), low abdominal pain (3/8), dysmenorrhea (1/8), or an accidentally found mass (1/8). CT/MRI exams revealed that the average tumor size reached 5.65 ± 2.35 cm, with 50% of the tumors being larger than 8 cm. The final diagnoses were confirmed by biopsy (2/8) or postoperative pathology (6/8); the most frequent positive immunohistochemical markers were Ki-67 (60-90%), MPO (100%), LCA (62.5%), CD43 (62.5%), CD117 (62.5%), CD99 (50%), vimentin (37.5%), and lysozyme (25%). MLL/AF9 gene fusions and CEBPA, JAK2, NRAS, and FLT3-TKD mutations were found in the patients. Six (75%) of the patients showed a complete response after upfront treatment using chemotherapy + surgery and experienced no recurrence during follow-up. The overall survival (OS) rate was 72.9%, and the 5-year OS rate was 72.9% (95%CI: 0.4056-1.000). The median OS was 26 months (range: 3-82). CONCLUSION For patients with isolated MS, treatment by chemotherapy and surgery are radical procedure, and initial treatment using chemotherapy alone should be considered for MS with synchronous intramedullary AML. Poor response to chemotherapy, short interval to leukemia occurrence, and heavy tumor burden (> 10 cm) could indicate a poor prognosis for patients with MS.

Abstract
In recent years, laparoscopic surgery and robotic surgery have been widely used, and various intraoperative image navigation systems have also developed rapidly. However, the liver itself has a complex vessel and duct system, which increase the difficulty of liver surgery. The augmented reality image navigation system combines the three-dimensional reconstructed image of the liver with the real liver anatomy, which presents the specific relationship between the tumor location and the surrounding vessels for the surgeon. Compared with other intraoperative image navigation methods, augmented reality has its unique advantages. This paper provides an overview of current advances in registration technology in augmented reality image navigation system, and focuses on its applications in liver surgery, including laparoscopic surgery and robotic surgery. Finally, the technological problems and difficulties still faced at present are summarized, and future directions worth studying in this field are proposed.

Abstract
The original version and title of Zhong Jing Quan Shu referred to the collection of four books - Shang Han Lun, Zhu Jie Shang Han Lun, Shang Han Lei Zheng and Jin Gui Yao Lue Fang Lun, published by Zhao Kaimei in the Ming Dynasty. Then, Zhang Qingzi Shang Han Lun was written by Zhang Qingzi. After that, a Japanese scholar compiled a new collection based on Zhong Jing Quan Shu held in the Cabinet Library in Japan consisting of three books - Shang Han Lei Zheng, JinGui Yao Lue Fang Lun and Zhang Qingzi Shang Han Lun. The preface and content in this collection was adjusted for some practical purposes and was published in the second year of Manji in Japan (1659). This book, Zhang Qingzi Shang Han Lun was based on Shang Han Lun from the early and mid-Edo period of Japan. It was then returned to China in the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. It was soon republished by Deng in Chengdu, with Yun Qi Zhang Jue Lu and Shang Han Ming Li Lun, added as a collection of five books with the same name Zhang Zi Qing Shang Han Lun, being popular in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. This book was understood to be from Zhong Jing Quan Shu published by Zhao Kaimei during this period. These two books were distinguished from each other when Shang Han Lun published in the Song Dynasty, drew people's attention. However, Zhang Qingzi Shang Han Lun was still believed valuable for both clinical and literature studies.

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

Abstract
Iron is essential to organisms, the liver plays a vital role in its storage. Under pathological conditions, iron uptake by the intestine or hepatocytes increases, allowing excess iron to accumulate in liver cells. When the expression of hepcidin is abnormal, iron homeostasis in humans cannot be regulated, and resulting in iron overload. Hepcidin also regulates the release of iron from siderophores, thereby regulating the concentration of iron in plasma. Important factors related to hepcidin and systemic iron homeostasis include plasma iron concentration, body iron storage, infection, inflammation, and erythropoietin. This review summarizes the mechanism and regulation of iron overload caused by hepcidin, as well as related liver diseases caused by iron overload and treatment.

Abstract
Pertussis is an acute, highly infectious respiratory disease caused by Bordetella pertussis, and is one of the leading causes of infant disease and death worldwide. The pertussis vaccine has been used in the expanded program on immunization globally since 1974 and the vaccination coverage remains high. In recent years, the pertussis incidence rate increased, even pertussis outbreaks occurred, in more and more countries or areas after years with low incidence level. The disease burden of pertussis has been seriously underestimated, and the prevention and control of pertussis is facing many challenges. This article reviews the epidemic status of pertussis worldwide, the factors affecting the reemergence of pertussis, and the challenges in the prevention and control to provide a reference for prevention and control of pertussis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of intravesical mitomycin compared with gemcitabine on the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. METHODS A systematic literature search up to November 2021 was done and 6 studies included 389 subjects with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer at the start of the study; 197 of them were provided with intravesical-mitomycin and 192 with intravesical gemcitabine. The studies reported the relationships about the effect of intravesical mitomycin compared with gemcitabine on the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. We calculated the odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) to assess the effect of intravesical mitomycin compared with gemcitabine on the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer using the dichotomous method with a random or fixed-effect model. RESULTS Intravesical mitomycin had significantly higher recurrence rates (OR, 2.41; 95% CI, 1.43-4.08, p=0.001) and chemical cystitis (OR, 4.39; 95% CI, 2.27-8.51, p<0.001) compared to intravesical gemcitabine in subjects with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. However, intravesical mitomycin had no significant difference in its effect on hematuria (OR, 1.71; 95% CI, 0.68-4.33, p=0.26), skin reaction (OR, 2.04; 95% CI, 0.59-7.07, p=0.26), and liver and kidney functions damage (OR, 1.96; 95% CI, 0.35-10.96, p=0.44) compared to intravesical gemcitabine in subjects with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. CONCLUSIONS Intravesical mitomycin had significantly higher recurrence rates and chemical cystitis and no significant difference in its effect on hematuria, skin reaction, and liver and kidney functions damage compared to intravesical gemcitabine in subjects with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Further studies are required to validate these findings.

Abstract
In the new century, cardiac amyloidosis has received more attention from many countries and institutions, leading to innovations in the essence of the pathology, biological markers, noninvasive tests, and staging diagnoses and treatments for this disease. However, few reviews have summarized the research trends and hotspots in cardiac amyloidosis. Bibliometrics analysis is a statistically based approach to research that visualizes the contributions of academic institutions and changes in research hotspots. Therefore, in this paper, we used Citespace and VOSviewer software to conduct co-occurrence analysis and collaborative network analysis on the countries, institutions, and authors in the articles related to cardiac amyloidosis since the new century. And further find out burst keywords and references to obtain the research history, disciplinary development, and new hotspots and topics.

Abstract

Type of funding sources: Public grant(s) – National budget only. Main funding source(s): Singapore Ministry of Health’s National Medical Research Council
Background
There are little data on the interplay between post-acute myocardial infarction (MI), left ventricular systolic dysfunction and atrial fibrillation (AF) and the impact on subsequent acute ischemic stroke (AIS), particularly among patients with moderately reduced ejection fraction (EF).
Purpose
We aimed to study the association between low EF, AF and the risk and severity of AIS.
Methods
This study linked national, population-based data from the Singapore Myocardial Infarction Registry with the Singapore Stroke Registry from 2007 to 2018. The EF and AF status were recorded during the index MI hospitalization. Patients were grouped based on an EF of ≥50% or <50%. An additional grouping of patients with AMI in 2008 to 2018 and EF of ≥50% (normal EF), 40-49% (mildly reduced EF) or <40% (reduced EF) was done. The primary outcome of interest was the risk of developing an AIS after an AMI. The secondary outcome of interest was the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) across the different strata of EF among AMI patients with subsequent AIS.
Results
There were 64512 patients available for analysis. The median age was 65.7 and 69.5% were male. The median duration from MI to AIS was 16.9 (IQR 1.6-46.1) months. Low EF <40% was independently associated with subsequent AIS (adjusted HR 1.18, 95% CI 1.10-1.27), as was EF 40-49% (adjusted HR 1.16, 95% CI 1.06-1.27). Among patients with AF, EF<50% was not a statistically significant predictor of AIS (adjusted HR 1.08, 95% CI 0.96-1.23). In patients without AF, the mildly reduced EF group had an increased aHR of AIS of 1.18 (95% CI 1.06-1.31), but not those with AF (aHR 1.03, 95% CI 0.87-1.23). The cubic spline curves of continuous EF against relative hazard for stroke stratified by presence of AF is shown in Figure 1. Patients with low EF without AF had highest median NIHSS score during subsequent AIS (EF <40% NIHSS 6-9; EF 40-49% NIHSS 4; EF ≥50% NIHSS 4).
Conclusions
Reduced and moderately reduced EF post-MI was independently associated with subsequent AIS and was associated with increased AIS severity in patients without AF but not in those with AF. Further research is needed to mitigate the risk of late AIS among post-MI patients with reduced EF along with AF.

Abstract
The meltwater streams of the McMurdo Dry Valleys are hot spots of biological diversity in the climate-sensitive polar desert landscape. Microbial mats, largely comprised of cyanobacteria, dominate the streams which flow for a brief window of time (~10 weeks) over the austral summer. These communities, critical to nutrient and carbon cycling, display previously uncharacterized patterns of rapid destabilization and recovery upon exposure to variable and physiologically detrimental conditions. Here, we characterize changes in biodiversity, transcriptional responses and activity of microbial mats in response to hydrological disturbance over spatiotemporal gradients. While diverse metabolic strategies persist between marginal mats and main channel mats, data collected from 4 time points during the austral summer revealed a homogenization of the mat communities during the mid-season peak meltwater flow, directly influencing the biogeochemical roles of this stream ecosystem. Gene expression pattern analyses identified strong functional sensitivities of nitrogen-fixing marginal mats to changes in hydrological activities. Stress response markers detailed the environmental challenges of each microhabitat and the molecular mechanisms underpinning survival in a polar desert ecosystem at the forefront of climate change. At mid and end points in the flow cycle, mobile genetic elements were upregulated across all mat types indicating high degrees of genome evolvability and transcriptional synchronies. Additionally, we identified novel antifreeze activity in the stream microbial mats indicating the presence of ice-binding proteins (IBPs). Cumulatively, these data provide a new view of active intra-stream diversity, biotic interactions and alterations in ecosystem function over a high-flow hydrological regime.

Abstract
Controllable design of the nanocrystal-assembled plasmonic/magnetic nanoarchitectures (P/MNAs) inspires abundant methodologies to enhance light-matter interactions and control magnetic-induced effects by means of fine-tuning the morphology and ordered packing of noble metallic or magnetic building blocks. The burgeoning development of multifunctional nanoarchitectures has opened up broad range of interdisciplinary applications including biosensing, in vitro diagnostic devices, point-of-care (POC) platforms, and soft bioelectronics. By taking advantage of their customizability and efficient conjugation with capping biomolecules, various nanoarchitectures have been integrated into high-performance biosensors with remarkable sensitivity and versatility, enabling key features that combined multiplexed detection, ease-of-use and miniaturization. In this review, we provide an overview of the representative developments of nanoarchitectures that being built by plasmonic and magnetic nanoparticles over recent decades. The design principles and key mechanisms for signal amplification and quantitative sensitivity have been explored. We highlight the structure-function programmability and prospects of addressing the main limitations for conventional biosensing strategies in terms of accurate selectivity, sensitivity, throughput, and optoelectronic integration. State-of-the-art strategies to achieve affordable and field-deployable POC devices for early multiplexed detection of infectious diseases such as COVID-19 has been covered in this review. Finally, we discuss the urgent yet challenging issues in nanoarchitectures design and related biosensing application, such as large-scale fabrication and integration with portable devices, and provide perspectives and suggestions on developing smart biosensors that connecting the materials science and biomedical engineering for personal health monitoring.

Abstract
AIMS Medication for advanced sarcomas has not improved for three decades. Patient-derived tumour xenografts (PDTX) are a promising solution for developing new therapies and real-time personalised medicine because of their highly effective prediction of drug efficacy. However, there is a dearth of PDTX models for sarcomas due to the scarcity and heterogeneity of the disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS A multicentre clinical collaborative study (ChiCTR-OOC-17013617) was carried out. Fresh patient tumour tissues via resection or biopsy were used for the PDTX set-up. The standard medical care chosen by the physician was given to the patient, in parallel with testing on multiple regimens. The outcomes of patients' responses and PDTX tests were compared. Comprehensive analyses were carried out to assess the clinical value of PDTX for the treatment of sarcomas. Living tissues from successfully engrafted cases were deposited into a repository. RESULTS Forty-two cases, including 36 bone sarcomas and six soft-tissue sarcomas, were enrolled; the overall engraftment rate was 73.8%. Histopathological examination showed a 100% consistency between primary tumours and tumour grafts. The engraftment rate was independent of age, gender and sampling methods, but was associated with subtypes of tumour. The outgrowth time of tumour grafts could be associated with prognosis. Major somatic mutations in tumour grafts occurred primarily in common tumour driver genes. Poor prognosis was associated with the KMT2C mutation. A drug efficacy test showed complete concordance between the PDTX model and patients' responses in 17 regimens. CONCLUSION PDTX is an ideal preclinical model for sarcomas because of its faithful preservation of the heterogeneity of the disease, a satisfactory engraftment rate and high accuracy in its prediction of drug efficacy.
