Abstract
During hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), ATG depletes T cells in-vivo to improve engraftment and prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Here, we compared the clinical efficacy of two different types of ATGs: thymoglobulin and anti-human T-lymphocyte immunoglobulin (Grafalon). A total of 469 patients who received haploidentical transplantation were enrolled in this retrospective study. We applied a propensity score (PS)-matched analysis and 209 patients were assigned to each group. Clinical outcomes were compared between two groups and primary outcome was overall survival (OS). There was no significant difference in OS between two groups. Within the first 180 days after HSCT, Grafalon was associated with lower incidences of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) viremia (31.6 vs. 54.5%, P < 0.0001) and cytomegalovirus viremia (CMV) viremia (54.5 vs. 67.9%, P = 0.005) compared to thymoglobulin. Patients receiving Grafalon had a higher rate of moderate/severe chronic GVHD (26.3 vs. 18.2%, P = 0.046). However, the incidences of engraftment failure, grade II-IV acute GVHD, relapse, non-relapse mortality (NRM), and GVHD-free relapse-free survival (GRFS) did not differ greatly between groups. In the subgroup analysis, Grafalon improved the OS of lymphoid malignancies with young ages (< 40 years old) (HR, 0.55; P = 0.04) or with a high/very high disease risk index (HR, 0.36; P = 0.04). In the myeloid cohort, Grafalon reduced NRM in the patients who received non-female for male transplantation grafts (HR, 0.17; P = 0.02). Our results suggest the two types of ATG may differentially influence transplant outcomes and it may optimize ATG selection according to the condition of patients.

Abstract
Objective: To explore potential predictors of refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (RMPP) in early stage. Methods: The prospective multicenter study was conducted in Zhejiang, China from May 1st, 2019 to January 31st, 2020. A total of 1 428 patients with fever >48 hours to <120 hours were studied. Their clinical data and oral pharyngeal swab samples were collected; Mycoplasma pneumoniae DNA in pharyngeal swab specimens was detected. Patients with positive Mycoplasma pneumoniae DNA results underwent a series of tests, including chest X-ray, complete blood count, C-reactive protein, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and procalcitonin. According to the occurrence of RMPP, the patients were divided into two groups, RMPP group and general Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (GMPP) group. Measurement data between the 2 groups were compared using Mann-Whitney U test. Logistic regression analyses were used to examine the associations between clinical data and RMPP. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to analyse the power of the markers for predicting RMPP. Results: A total of 1 428 patients finished the study, with 801 boys and 627 girls, aged 4.3 (2.7, 6.3) years. Mycoplasma pneumoniae DNA was positive in 534 cases (37.4%), of whom 446 cases (83.5%) were diagnosed with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia, including 251 boys and 195 girls, aged 5.2 (3.3, 6.9) years. Macrolides-resistant variation was positive in 410 cases (91.9%). Fifty-five cases were with RMPP, 391 cases with GMPP. The peak body temperature before the first visit and LDH levels in RMPP patients were higher than that in GMPP patients (39.6 (39.1, 40.0) vs. 39.2 (38.9, 39.7) ℃, 333 (279, 392) vs. 311 (259, 359) U/L, both P<0.05). Logistic regression showed the prediction probability π=exp (-29.7+0.667×Peak body temperature (℃)+0.004×LDH (U/L))/(1+exp (-29.7+0.667×Peak body temperature (℃)+0.004 × LDH (U/L))), the cut-off value to predict RMPP was 0.12, with a consensus of probability forecast of 0.89, sensitivity of 0.89, and specificity of 0.67; and the area under ROC curve was 0.682 (95%CI 0.593-0.771, P<0.01). Conclusion: In MPP patients with fever over 48 to <120 hours, a prediction probability π of RMPP can be calculated based on the peak body temperature and LDH level before the first visit, which can facilitate early identification of RMPP.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the characteristics and changes of cardiac injury with age in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and its clinical significance. Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted. The 215 patients diagnosed with DMD in West China Second Hospital from January 2019 to November 2022 and aged from 6 to 18 years were enrolled. Their clinical data, myocardial injury markers, routine electrocardiogram, cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and echocardiography were collected. The patients were divided into five age groups: 6-<8, 8-<10, 10-<12, 12-<14 and 14-18 years of age, and matched with healthy boys respectively. Independent sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the clinical data and CMR indexes between DMD patients and controls in all age subgroups, and to compare the value of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) measured by echocardiography and CMR in each subgroup of DMD patitents. Pearson correlation analysis or Spearman correlation analysis was used to explore the relation between the CMR indexes and age in DMD patients. Results: A total of 215 patients with DMD (all male) and 122 healthy boys were included in the study. There were 75 DMD patients and 23 controls in 6-<8 years of age group, 77 DMD and 28 controls in 8-<10 years of age group, 39 DMD and 23 controls in 10-<12 years of age group, 10 DMD and 31 controls in the 12-<14 years of age group, and 14 DMD and 17 controls in 14-18 years of age group. In the DMD patients, the older the age, the lower the levels of creatine kinase (CK) and creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB). In the 6-<8 years of age group, the CK level was 10 760 (7 800, 15 757) U/L, while in the group of 14-18 years of age, it was 2 369 (1 480, 6 944) U/L. As for CK-MB, it was (189±17) μg/L in the 6-<8 years of age group and (62±16) μg/L in the 14-18 years of age group. Cardiac troponin I remained unchanged in <12 years of age groups, but significantly increased in 12-<14 years of age group, reaching the highest value of 0.112 (0.006, 0.085) μg/L. In the DMD patients, the older the age, the higher the proportion of abnormal electrocardiogram (ECG). In the 6-<8 years of age group, the proportion is 29.3% (22/75), while in the 14-18 years of age group, it was 10/14. Correlation analysis showed that the left ventricular end-diastolic volume index was positively related with age (r=0.18, P=0.015), and the left ventricular stroke volume index and cardiac output index were negatively related with age (r=-0.34 and -0.31, respectively, both P<0.001). In the DMD patients, the older the age, the lower LVEF, with the LVEF decreasing to (49.3±3.1)% in the 14-18 years of age group. The LVEF of DMD cases was significantly lower than that of controls in the age subgroups of 8-<10, 10-<12, 12-<14 and 14-18 years of age groups ((57.9±5.2) % vs. (63.6±0.8)%, 60.7% (55.9%, 61.9%) vs. 63.7% (60.2%, 66.0%), 57.1% (51.8%, 63.4%) vs. 62.1 % (59.5%, 64.5)%, (49.3±3.1) % vs. (61.6±1.3)%, respectively; all P<0.01). In the DMD patients, the older the age, the higher the proportion of positive late gadolinium enhancement (LGE). In the 6-<8 years of age group, it was 22% (11/51), in the 12-<14 years of age group, it was 13/14, and in the 14-18 years of age group, all DMD showed positive LGE. The value of LVEF of DMD cases measured by echocardiography was significantly higher than that measured by CMR in 6-<8 years of age group and 8-<10 years of age group (63.2% (60.1%, 66.4%) vs. 59.1 % (55.4%, 62.9%), and (62.8±5.2) % vs. (57.9±5.2)%, all P<0.001). Conclusion: DMD patients develop cardiac injury in the early stage of the disease, and the incidence of cardiac damage gradually increases with both age and the progression of disease.

Results: The positive coefficients of experts in the two rounds were all 100.00%, the authority coefficient of experts was 0.82, the coefficients of variation of the indexes in the two rounds were all less than 0.30. The coordination coefficients of experts in the first and second rounds were 0.64 and 0.77, respectively (P<0.001) . After two rounds of Delphi method expert consultation, a healthy enterprise evaluation index system including 4 first-level indexes, 14 second-level indexes, and 63 third-level indexes was constructed. Conclusion: The constructed health enterprise evaluation index system is highly scientific and reliable, covering the main factors of healthy enterprise construction, and providing a reliable and quantifiable basis and self-assessment basis for the establishment of healthy enterprises.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the prognosis of Philadelphia-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL) has improved with the introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and stem cell transplantation, prevention of relapse after transplantation remains a concern. The aim of this study was to compare the impact of TKI prophylaxis with imatinib and dasatinib on long-term outcomes after transplantation. METHODS Patients with Ph+ ALL who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) at first complete remission (CR1) and received TKI prophylaxis after allo-HSCT were included in this retrospective analysis. Two cohorts were established based on the choice of TKI prophylaxis: the imatinib (Ima) and dasatinib (Das) cohorts. The survival and safety outcomes of these cohorts were compared. RESULTS Ninety-one patients in the Ima cohort and 50 in the Das cohort were included. After a median follow-up of 50.6 months, the 5-year cumulative incidence of relapse, nonrelapse mortality rate, and overall survival in the Ima and Das cohorts were 16.1% and 12.5%, 5.2% and 9.8%, and 86.5% and 77.6%, respectively, with no statistical differences. The cumulative incidence of mild chronic graft-versus-host disease was higher in the Das cohort. The most common adverse event was neutropenia (64.7% vs. 69.5%). The Das cohort had a higher incidence of gastrointestinal bleeding (25.5% vs. 2.3%) and gastrointestinal reaction (48.9% vs. 31.4%) than the Ima cohort. The proportion of patients treated on schedule was significantly lower in the Das cohort than in the Ima cohort, and drug intolerance was the main reason for protocol violation. CONCLUSIONS For patients with Ph+ ALL undergoing allo-HSCT in CR1, imatinib prophylaxis achieved long-term outcomes similar to those of dasatinib.

Abstract
Objective This study investigated the cellular composition of peripheral blood grafts for anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG)-based myeloablative haploidentical haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT). Methods Clinical characteristics were retrospectively evaluated in a training cohort with ATG-based myeloablative haplo-HSCT between January 2016 and February 2020 and confirmed in a validation cohort between March 2020 and June 2021. Results A higher dose of graft CD8+ T cells (≥ 0.85 × 108 kg-1) was significantly improved overall survival (OS; hazard ratio [HR], 1.750; P = 0.002) and disease-free survival (DFS; HR, 1.751; P < 0.001) in the training cohort, according to multivariate Cox regression analysis. Higher doses of mononuclear cells (MNCs) demonstrated better OS (HR, 1.517; P = 0.038) and DFS (HR, 1.532; P = 0.027). Older patient age (> 46 years), older donor age (≥ 50 years) and a higher refined disease risk index (rDRI) were also related to OS. A graft CD8+ T-cell risk system based on graft CD8+ T-cell dose, donor age and rDRI was constructed using a nomogram model after LASSO Cox regression analysis. It showed acceptable discrimination, with a C-index of 0.62 and 0.63, respectively. Graft CD8+ T-cell dose was negatively correlated with donor age (P < 0.001) and positively correlated with a higher lymphocyte percentage in the peripheral blood before mobilisation (P < 0.001). Conclusion A higher CD8+ T-cell dose in peripheral blood-derived grafts improves patients' survival with ATG-based myeloablative haplo-HSCT. Younger donors with higher lymphocyte percentages improved patients' survival with an intermediate rDRI risk.

Abstract
KMT2A rearrangement (KMT2A-r) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is associated with poor outcomes; the prognostic factors after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) remain unclear. We investigated 364 adults with AML who underwent allo-HSCT between April 2016 and May 2022, and 45 had KMT2A-r among them. Propensity score analysis with 1:1 matching and the nearest neighbor matching method identified 42 patients in KMT2A-r and non-KMT2A-r cohorts, respectively. The 2-year overall survival (OS), relapse-free survival (RFS), cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR), and non-relapsed mortality rates of patients with KMT2A-r (n = 45) were 59.1%, 49.6%, 41.5%, and 8.9%, respectively. Using propensity score matching, the 2-year OS rate of patients with KMT2A-r (n = 42) was lower than that of those without KMT2A-r (n = 42; 56.1% vs 88.1%, P = 0.003). Among patients with KMT2A-r (n = 45), the prognostic advantage was exhibited from transplantation in first complete remission (CR1) and measurable residual disease (MRD) negative, which was reflected in OS, RFS, and CIR (P < 0.001, P < 0.001, and P = 0.002, respectively). Furthermore, patients with AF6 had poorer outcomes than those with AF9, ELL, and other KMT2A-r subtypes (P = 0.032, P = 0.001, and P = 0.001 for OS, RFS, and CIR, respectively). However, no differences were found in the OS, RFS, and CIR between patients with KMT2A-r with and without mutations (all P > 0.05). Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that achieving CR1 MRD negative before HSCT was a protective factor for OS [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.242, P = 0.007], RFS (HR = 0.350, P = 0.036), and CIR (HR = 0.271, P = 0.021), while AF6 was a risk factor for RFS (HR = 2.985, P = 0.028) and CIR (HR = 4.675, P = 0.004). The prognosis of patients with KMT2A-r AML was poor, particularly those harboring AF6-related translocation; however, it is not associated with the presence of mutations. These patients can benefit from achieving CR1 MRD negative before HSCT.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) offers the highest curative potential for patients with hematological malignancies. Complications including infection, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and relapse reflect delayed or dysregulated immune reconstitution. After transplantation, NK cells rapidly reconstitute and are crucial for immune surveillance and immune tolerance. NK cell function is tightly regulated by killer immunoglobin-like receptors (KIRs). Previous studies have revealed that donor KIRs, especially some activated KIRs (aKIRs) are closely related to transplant outcomes. Here, we performed a retrospective study, including 323 patients who received haploidentical (haplo) HSCT in our center. In univariate analysis, donor KIR2DS1, KIR2DS3 and KIR3DS1 gene protected patients with lymphoid disease from Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation, while donor KIR2DS1, KIR2DS5 and KIR3DS1 gene conferred a higher risk of CMV reactivation for patients with myeloid disease. Multivariate analysis confirmed that donor telomeric (Tel) B/x and KIR2DS3 gene best protected patients with lymphoid disease from EBV (p = 0.017) and CMV reactivation (p = 0.004). In myeloid disease, grafts lacking Tel B/x and KIR2DS5 gene correlated with the lowest risk of CMV reactivation (p = 0.018). Besides, donor aKIR genes did not influence the rates of GVHD, relapse, non-relapse mortality (NRM) and overall survival (OS) in this study. The reactivation of EBV and CMV was associated with poor prognosis of haplo-HSCT. In conclusion, we found that donor aKIR genes might have a synergistic effect on CMV and EBV reactivation after haplo-HSCT. Whether the influence of donor aKIR genes varies with disease types remained to be studied.

Abstract
Donor-specific anti-HLA antibodies (DSA) are a major cause of engraftment failure in patients receiving haploidentical haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Haplo-HSCT). Double filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) avoids the unnecessary loss of plasma proteins and increases the efficiency of purification. To investigate the effectiveness of the desensitization protocol including DFPP and rituximab, we conducted a nested case-control study. Thirty-three patients who had positive DSA were desensitized by the protocol and 99 patients with negative DSA were randomly matched as control. The median DSA mean fluorescence intensity values before and after DFPP treatment were 7505.88 ± 4424.38 versus 2013.29 ± 4067.22 (p < 0.001). All patients in DSA group achieved haematopoietic reconstitution and the median neutrophils and platelets engraftment times were 13 (10-21) and 13 (10-29) days respectively. Although the cumulative incidence of II-IV aGVHD (41.4% vs. 28.1%) and 3-year moderate to severe cGVHD (16.8% vs. 7.2%) were higher in DSA cohort than in the control, no statistical significance was observed. The 3-year non-relapse mortality and the overall survival were 6.39% and 72.0%, respectively, in the DSA cohort, which were comparable to the negative control. In conclusion, DFPP and rituximab could be effectively used for desensitization and overcome the negative effects of DSA in Haplo-HSCT.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Brentuximab vedotin (BV) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) had important roles in the treatment of relapse or refractory (R/R) Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). Treatment of refractory disease after BV and -/or ICIs remains a challenge. This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of radiotherapy for R/R HL after failure to BV or ICIs. MATERIALS/METHODS We retrospectively analyzed patients in two institutions with R/R HL who had failed after first-line therapy, and were refractory to BV or ICIs, and received radiotherapy (RT) thereafter. The overall response rate (ORR), duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 19 patients were enrolled. First-line systemic therapy consisted of ABVD (84.2%), AVD + ICIs (10.5%) and BEACOPP (5.3%), respectively. After first-line therapy, 15 patients (78.9%) were refractory, and 4 patients (21.1%) relapsed. After diagnosis of R/R HL, 8 patients (42.1%) received BV, and 17 patients (89.5%) received ICIs. RT was delivered in all 19 patients who failed after BV or ICIs. In 16 efficacy-evaluable patients, the ORR and CR rate were 100% and 100%. The median DOR was 17.2 months (range, 7.9 to 46.7 months). 3 patients progressed at outside of the radiation field. The in-field-response rate was 100%. The 12-month PFS and OS were 84.4% and 100%, respectively. No patients were reported with sever adverse events. CONCLUSION This study concluded that radiotherapy was effective and safe for refractory HL after BV or ICIs. Further prospective studies were warranted.

Abstract
Relapse is a significant barrier to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) success. To explore the prognosis of patients who underwent relapse after allo-HSCT, we retrospectively examined 740 consecutive acute leukemia patients in our single center transplanted between January 2013 and December 2018, of which 178 relapsed. The median survival was 204 days (95%CI, 160.7-247.3) from relapse, and the 3-year post-relapse overall survival (prOS) rate was 17.8% (95%CI, 12.5-25.3%). Overall complete remission (CR) or CR with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi) was achieved in 32.1% for the acute myeloid leukemia and 45.3% for acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients after salvage therapy, respectively. Grade III-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after transplantation and >20% bone marrow blasts at relapse were associated with worse prOS, while patients with chronic GVHD after transplantation, relapse later than 1 year after transplantation, and solitary extramedullary disease had better prOS. Therefore, we developed a concise risk scoring system for prOS based on the number of risk factors affecting prOS. This scoring system was validated with another cohort of post-transplant relapsed acute leukemia patients who received allo-HSCT between 2019 and 2020. Identifying relapse risk factors and providing personalized care for patients with poor prognoses is crucial for improving survival.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the application value of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary infection in immunocompromised patients. Methods: A total of 78 patients with immunocompromised pulmonary infection [55 males and 23 females, aged (50.3±16.9) years] and 61 patients with non-immunocompromised pulmonary infection [42 males and 19 females, aged (63.6±15.9) years] in the Intensive Care Unit of the First Medical Center of College of the Pulmonary & Critical Care Medicine, Chinese PLA General Hospital from November 2018 to May 2022 were retrospectively selected. Patients in both groups received bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) mNGS and conventional microbiological tests (CMTs) while clinically diagnosed with pulmonary infection. The diagnostic positive rate, pathogen detection rate and clinical coincidence rate of the two methods were compared. At the same time, the difference of adjustment rate of anti-infective treatment strategy based on the results of mNGS detection was compared between the two groups. Results: The positive rates of mNGS in patients with pulmonary infection were 94.9% (74/78) and 82.0% (50/61) in the immunocompromised group and the non-immunocompromised group, respectively. The positive rates of CMTs in patients with pulmonary infection were 64.1% (50/78) and 75.4% (46/61) in the immunocompromised group and the non-immunocompromised group, respectively. The positive rates of mNGS and CMTs in patients with pulmonary infection in immunocompromised group showed a statistically significant difference (P<0.001). The detection rates of mNGS in the immunocompromised group for pneumocystis jirovecii and cytomegalovirus were 41.0% (32/78) and 37.2% (29/78), respectively, and the detection rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae, chlamydia psittaci and Legionella pneumophila were 16.4% (10/61), 9.8% (6/61) and 8.2% (5/61) in the non-immunocompromised patients, respectively, which were higher than those of CMTs [1.3% (1/78), 7.7% (6/78), 4.9% (3/61), 0 and 0] (all P<0.05). In the immunocompromised group, the clinical coincidence rates of mNGS and CMTs and were 89.7% (70/78) and 43.6% (34/78), respectively, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.001). In the non-immunocompromised group, the clinical coincidence rates of mNGS and CMTs were 83.6% (51/61) and 62.3% (38/61), with a statistically significant difference (P=0.008). In the immunocompromised group, according to the results of the etiology of mNGS, the adjustment rate of anti-infection treatment strategy was 87.2% (68/78), while in the non-immunocompromised group, the adjustment rate of anti-infective treatment strategy was 60.7% (37/61), with a statistically significant difference (P<0.001). Conclusion: In patients with immunocompromised pulmonary infection, mNGS has more advantages than CMTs in diagnostic positive rate, diagnosis rate of mixed infection, pathogen detection rate and guidance of anti-infection treatment strategy adjustment, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the current situation of anxiety, subjective well-being in occupational population and the mediating effect of resilience. Methods: From March 24th to 26th, 2020, a cross-sectional survey was conducted among occupational population aged ≥18 years old using online questionnaires. A total of 2134 valid questionnaires were obtained, with respondents from 30 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government. Their general demographic data, subjective well-being, anxiety, and resilience were collected. Pearson χ(2) test and Spearson correlation analysis were used for data analysis, and structural equation model was used to explore the mediating effect of resilience on anxiety and subjective well-being. Results: The age of the respondents ranged from 18 to 60 years old, with an average age of (31.19±7.09) years old, including 1075 (50.4%) women and 1059 (49.6%) men. The positive rates of low subjective well-being and anxiety were 46.5% (992/2134) and 28.4% (607/2134), respectively. Anxiety scores were significantly negatively correlated with subjective well-being scores and resilience scores (r(s)=-0.52, -0.41, P<0.05), while resilience was significantly positively correlated with subjective well-being (r(s)=0.32, P<0.05). Structural equation models showed that anxiety had a negative predictive effect on subjective well-being, while resilience not only had a positive predictive effect on subjective well-being, but also played a mediating role between anxiety and subjective well-being, with a mediating effect of 9.9%. Conclusion: The situation of anxiety and well-being in the occupational population is still not optimistic, and resilience has a mediating effect between anxiety and subjective well-being.

Abstract
Antibiotics are used for postsurgical wound healing purposes but unfortunately, resistance against them demands some alternatives for quick recovery. Sepsis of wounds is a challenge for medical as well as veterinary professionals. Nanoparticles have significant advantages in wound treatment and drug resistance reversal. This study was conducted to appreciate emerging alternates of antibiotics like zinc oxide nanoparticles and plant extracts in topical application. Zinc oxide is considered a good wound healer and its nanoparticles are easy to access. So, the efficacies of zinc oxide nanoparticles and sweet flag plant extract ointments were tested to compare modern and traditional therapeutics as sweet flag is considered a pure medicinal plant. Rabbits were selected for this study due to the healing properties of their skin. Wounds were inflicted on the thoracolumbar region and treated for 29 days post-surgically daily with normal saline and the ointment of zinc oxide nanoparticles and sweet flag extract ointment, prepared in a hydrophilic solvent. Wound shrinkage was observed daily and histopathological analysis was made and results were compared. Zinc oxide nanoparticles ointment showed the most satisfactory results for every parameter included in the study. No side effects of its topical application were observed. Healing was normal without any complications. The preparations of zinc oxide nanoparticles may help in the era of antibiotic resistance as topical drugs in the future.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the safety and efficacy of excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA) for the treatment of degenerated great saphenous vein graft (SVG). Methods: This is a single-center, prospective, single-arm study. Patients, who were admitted to the Geriatric Cardiovascular Center of Beijing Anzhen Hospital from January 2022 to June 2022, were consecutively enrolled. Inclusion criteria were recurrent chest pain after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG), and coronary angiography confirmed that the SVG stenosis was more than 70% but not completely occluded, and interventional treatment for SVG lesions was planned. Before balloon dilation and stent placement, ELCA was used to pretreat the lesions. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) examination was performed and postoperative index of microcirculation resistance (IMR) were assessed after stent implantation. The technique success rate and operation success rate were calculated. The technique success was defined as the successful passage of the ELCA system through the lesion. Operation success was defined as the successful placement of a stent at the lesion. The primary evaluation index of the study was IMR immediately after PCI. Secondary evaluation indexes included thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow grade, corrected TIMI frame count (cTFC), minimal stent area and stent expansion measured by OCT after PCI, and procedural complications (Ⅳa myocardial infarction, no reflow, perforation). Results: A total of 19 patients aged (66.0±5.6) years were enrolled, including 18 males (94.7%). The age of SVG was 8 (6, 11) years. The length of the lesions was greater than 20 mm, and they were all SVG body lesions. The median stenosis degree was 95% (80%, 99%), and the length of the implanted stent was (41.7±16.3)mm. The operation time was 119 (101, 166) minutes, and the cumulative dose was 2 089 (1 378, 3 011)mGy. The diameter of the laser catheter was 1.4 mm, the maximum energy was 60 mJ, and the maximum frequency was 40 Hz. The technique success and the operation success rate were both 100% (19/19). The IMR after stent implantation was 29.22±5.95. The TIMI flow grade of patients after ELCA and stent implantation was significantly improved (all P>0.05), and the TIMI flow grade of all patients after stent implantation was Grade Ⅲ. The cTFC decreased significantly after ELCA (33.2±7.8) and after stent placement (22.8±7.1) than preoperative level (49.7±13.0) (both P<0.001). The minimum stent area was (5.53±1.36)mm2, and the stent expansion rate was (90.0±4.3)%. Perforation, no reflow, type Ⅳa myocardial infarction and other complications were not observed. However, postoperative high-sensitivity troponin level was significantly increased ((67.937±33.839)ng/L vs. (5.316±3.105)ng/L, P<0.001). Conclusion: ELCA is safe and effective in the treatment of SVG lesions and could improve microcirculation and ensure full expansion of stent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a cost-effective procedure, but it is also associated with substantial postoperative pain. The present study aimed to compare pain relief and functional recovery after TKA among groups that received intravenous corticosteroids, periarticular corticosteroids, or a combination of both. METHODS This randomized, double-blinded clinical trial in a local institution in Hong Kong recruited 178 patients who underwent primary unilateral TKA. Six of these patients were excluded because of changes in surgical technique; 4, because of their hepatitis B status; 2, because of a history of peptic ulcer; and 2, because they declined to participate in the study. Patients were randomized 1:1:1:1 to receive placebo (P), intravenous corticosteroids (IVS), periarticular corticosteroids (PAS), or a combination of intravenous and periarticular corticosteroids (IVSPAS). RESULTS The pain scores at rest were significantly lower in the IVSPAS group than in the P group over the first 48 hours (p = 0.034) and 72 hours (p = 0.043) postoperatively. The pain scores during movement were also significantly lower in the IVS and IVSPAS groups than in the P group over the first 24, 48, and 72 hours (p ≤ 0.023 for all). The flexion range of the operatively treated knee was significantly better in the IVSPAS group than in the P group on postoperative day 3 (p = 0.027). Quadriceps power was also greater in the IVSPAS group than in the P group on postoperative days 2 (p = 0.005) and 3 (p = 0.007). Patients in the IVSPAS group were able to walk significantly further than patients in the P group in the first 3 postoperative days (p ≤ 0.003). Patients in the IVSPAS group also had a higher score on the Elderly Mobility Scale than those in the P group (p = 0.036). CONCLUSIONS IVS and IVSPAS yielded similar pain relief, but IVSPAS yielded a larger number of rehabilitation parameters that were significantly better than those in the P group. This study provides new insights into pain management and postoperative rehabilitation following TKA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic Level I.

Abstract
The success of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant for hematological malignancies is heavily dependent on the availability of suitable donors. Haploidentical donor (HID) and matched sibling donor (MSD) are two important donor options providing faster and easier sources of stem cells, however, due to confounding factors present in most retrospective studies, the validity of comparing outcomes between these two donor types remains uncertain. We conducted a post-hoc analysis of a prospective clinical trial (trial registration: Chinese Clinical Trial Registry; #ChiCTR-OCH-12002490; registered 22 February 2012; https://www.chictr.org.cn/showproj.aspx?proj=7061 ) to compare outcomes of HID versus MSD peripheral blood stem cell-derived transplants in patients with hematologic malignancies between 2015 and 2022. All HID-receiving patients had antithymocyte globulin-based conditioning. Propensity score matching was employed to minimize potential confounding factors between the two cohorts. A total of 1060 patients were initially reviewed and then 663 patients were ultimately included in the analysis after propensity score matching. The overall survival, relapse-free survival, non-relapse mortality rate and cumulative incidence of relapse were similar between HID and MSD cohorts. Subgroup analysis revealed that patients with positive measurable residual disease in first complete remission may have better overall survival with an HID transplant. The present demonstrated that haploidentical transplants can provide outcomes comparable to conventional MSD transplants, and HID should be recommended as one of the optimal donor choices for patients with positive measurable residual disease in first complete remission.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the association between the urinary arsenic level and serum total testosterone in Chinese men aged 18 to 79 years. Methods: A total of 5 048 male participants aged 18 to 79 years were recruited from the China National Human Biomonitoring (CNHBM) from 2017 to 2018. Questionnaires and physical examinations were used to collect information on demographic characteristics, lifestyle, food intake frequency and health status. Venous blood and urine samples were collected to detect the level of serum total testosterone, urine arsenic and urine creatinine. Participants were divided into three groups (low, middle, and high) based on the tertiles of creatinine-adjusted urine arsenic concentration. Weighted multiple linear regression was fitted to analyze the association of urinary arsenic with serum total testosterone. Results: The weighted average age of 5 048 Chinese men was (46.72±0.40) years. Geometric mean concentration (95%CI) of urinary arsenic, creatinine-adjusted urine arsenic and serum testosterone was 22.46 (20.08, 25.12) μg/L, 19.36 (16.92, 22.15) μg/L and 18.13 (17.42, 18.85) nmol/L, respectively. After controlling for covariates, compared with the low-level urinary arsenic group, the testosterone level of the participants in the middle-level group and the high-level group decreased gradually. The percentile ratio (95%CI) was -5.17% (-13.14%, 3.54%) and -10.33% (-15.68%, -4.63). The subgroup analysis showed that the association between the urinary arsenic level and testosterone level was more obvious in the group with BMI<24 kg/m2 group (Pinteraction<0.05). Conclusion: There is a negative association between the urinary arsenic level and serum total testosterone in Chinese men aged 18-79 years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bloodstream infection (BSI) is a common and serious complication that may lead to high mortality during the different phases after hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). We investigated BSI in patients undergoing HSCT to provide an appropriate clinical anti-infection experience and improve the prognosis of recipients with BSI after HSCT. METHODS A total of 105 patients with BSI after HSCT at our center from January 2015 to June 2020 were included in this retrospective study. We analyzed the clinical and microbiological data, and the risk factors for mortality at 3 months after BSI. RESULTS Of the 1141 HSCT recipients, 105 (9.2%) patients presented with 122 episodes of BSI, of which we isolated 85 (65.9%) gram-negative bacteria, 32 (24.8%) gram-positive bacteria and 12 (9.3%) fungi. Multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDR) were more than 70% of all pathogens and carbapenem-resistant organisms (CRO) were 25.6%. There were 55 episodes of BSI in the pre-engraftment phase and 67 episodes in the post-engraftment phase. The mortality of post-engraftment BSI was significantly higher than that of pre-engraftment (56.7% vs 32.7%, p = 0.005). Through multivariate analysis, the independent risk factors for all-cause mortality at 3 months after BSI were higher levels of procalcitonin (PCT), failure to cover appropriate antibiotics timely, and CRO BSI in pre-engraftment period or multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria (MDRGNB) BSI in post-engraftment period. CONCLUSION Although the incidence of BSI was lower after HSCT, MDR-dominated BSI had a high mortality rate. Rapid identification of infection or pathogens' classification with various testing methods and the more sensible and timely antibiotic cover are critical to the outcome of BSI after HSCT.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the clinical efficacy of unilateral biportal endoscopy unilateral laminotomy for bilateral decompression (UBE-ULBD) to posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) in the treatment of severe lumbar spinal stenosis (SLSS). Methods: The clinical data of 64 patients with SLSS treated with PLIF and UBE-ULBD in Dalian Central Hospital Affiliated to Dalian Medical University from April 2018 to April 2021 were collected and divided into UBE group and PLIF group according to the different surgical procedures. There were 30 cases in the UBE group, including 12 males and 18 females, aged (69.8±6.8) years. There were 34 patients in the PLIF group, including 15 males and 19 females, aged (69.3±6.3) years. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, surgical complications, the volume of drainage, transfusion, post-operative bed rest time, postoperative hospital stay, surgical costs of both groups were recorded and analyzed. The visual analogue scales (VAS) of back/leg pain (pre-operation and 1 d, 1 month, 6 month, 12 month post-operation) and Oswestry disability index (ODI) (pre-operation and 1 month, 6 month, 12 month post-operation) were used to determine the outcome. And the dural sac cross-sectional area (DSCA) and Schizas grade of both groups preoperatively and 6 month postoperatively were recorded. Results: The operation time in the UBE group was (69.2±8.0) min, it was lower than that in the PLIF group (139.0±15.3) min (P<0.05). The intraoperative blood loss and drainage in the UBE group were (19.5±5.6) ml and (15.0±10.8) ml, which were both lower than those in the PILF group [(212.4±34.1) ml and (169.6±43.8) ml] (both P<0.05). The postoperative bed rest time and hospital stay in the UBE group were (1.8±0.7) days and (3.0±0.9) days, which were both shorter than those in the PLIF group [(4.5±1.4) days and (7.1±1.7) days] (both P<0.05). The surgical cost was also lower in the UBE group than that in the PLIF group [RMB,(18.4±1.0) thousands yuan vs (33.9±2.4) thousands yuan, P<0.05]. In addition, no patient received blood transfusion in the UBE group. Dural sac tear occurred in 2 cases in the UBE group and in 3 cases in PLIF group; nerve root injury and infection occurred in one case in the PLIF group, respectively. In the PLIF group, the VAS of back pain was not significantly improved 1 day after operation when compared with that before the operation, but it significantly improved 1 month, 6 months and 1 year after operation (all P<0.05). The VAS for back pain at 1 day after operation and ODI at 1 month after operation in the UBE group were significantly superior to those in the PLIF group (both P<0.05), while there was no significant difference between the two groups in the VAS for back pain at 1 month, 6 months and 1 year after operation and ODI at 6 months and 1 year after operation. Both groups got significant canal expansion after the surgery and the PLIF group showed larger canal expansion extent (all P<0.05). Both groups improved significantly after surgery in the Schizas grade, there were 25 cases in UBE group improved to grade A, 5 cases to grade B while 30 cases in PLIF group improved to grade A, 4 cases to grade B, but there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: ULBD-UBE could achieve full decompression of the whole spinal canal with limited structures damage in treating SLSS. Compared with PLIF, UBE-ULBD could get complete decompression as well as less iatrogenic damage, it may be an ideal alternative surgical technique for SLSS with less invasion.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
To assess the Nickel sensitizing potential of total knee arthroplasty (TKA), explore the relationship between hypersensitivity and clinical outcomes, and evaluate the utility of skin patch testing pre- and/or postoperatively.
Materials and methods
A literature search was performed through EMBASE, Medline and PubMed databases. Articles were screened independently by two investigators. The level of evidence of studies was assessed using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine Criteria and the quality evaluated using the Methodological Index for Non-randomized Studies and Cochrane risk-of-bias tools.
Results
Twenty studies met the eligibility criteria, reporting on 1354 knee arthroplasties. Studies included patients undergoing primary or revision TKA, pre- and/or postoperatively, and used patch testing to identify Nickel hypersensitivity. Prevalence of Nickel hypersensitivity ranged from 0% to 87.5%. One study compared the prevalence of Nickel hypersensitivity in the same patient group before and after surgery and noted newly positive patch test reactions in three patients (4.2%). Three studies reported lower prevalence of Nickel hypersensitivity in postoperative patients compared to preoperative ones. Seven studies suggested that hypersensitivity might cause adverse clinical outcomes, but six did not support any relationship. Seven studies recommended preoperative patch testing in patients with history of metal allergy, and nine concluded that testing may be valuable postoperatively.
Conclusions
Patients undergoing TKA with no prior history of metal hypersensitivity do not seem to be at an increased risk of developing Nickel hypersensitivity, and there is conflicting evidence that patients with pre-existing hypersensitivity are more likely to experience adverse outcomes. Patch testing remains the most commonly used method for diagnosing hypersensitivity, and evidence suggests preoperative testing in patients with history of metal allergy to aid prosthesis selection, and postoperatively in patients with suspected hypersensitivity once common causes of implant failure have been excluded, since revision with hypoallergenic implants may alleviate symptoms.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
NHS England generates over 20 million tonnes of CO2 per year, representing 4% of the nation's greenhouse gas emissions. One third of all hospital waste comes from operating theatres. Our aim was to investigate the degree of knowledge of sustainable waste segregation amongst theatre staff in an elective orthopaedic centre and identify ways to improve their waste segregation practice.
Methods
Over a one-week period, 20 randomly selected theatre staff of different roles, completed a questionnaire asking them which disposal bin 11 commonly used orthopaedic theatre items should be placed in – general waste or recycling. After initial data collection, posters specifically identifying recyclable items were created and displayed in each operating theatre. Following this intervention, data was re-collected from another 20 randomly selected theatre staff using the same questionnaire.
Results
Results from the initial questionnaire showed general waste and recyclable items were correctly identified by staff in 65% (78/120 responses) and 59% (59/100 responses), respectively. Following the educational intervention, the percentage of correct responses increased to 68.3% (82/120 responses) and 85% (85/100 responses); i.e. staff knowledge of what can go into a recycling bin improved by 36%.
Conclusion
Educating staff by placing posters in the operating theatre can improve knowledge of what orthopaedic theatre items can be recycled and is a simple and effective way of producing sustainable change in surgery. Guiding and empowering individuals to exercise sustainable practice in the operating theatre will help the NHS to overcome the significant challenge of achieving net zero carbon by 2045.
Take-home message
Educating staff by placing posters in the operating theatre is a simple and effective way of improving waste segregation practice and will help the health service to overcome the significant challenge of achieving net zero carbon.

Abstract
ABO incompatibility is common in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT); however, the impact of donor-recipient ABO compatibility on transplantation outcomes in different HSCT settings is controversial. Moreover, haploidentical stem cell transplantation (haplo-SCT) with peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC)-derived grafts has not been well investigated. The present study aimed to investigate the impact of ABO incompatibility on post-transplantation outcomes, engraftment kinetics, blood product requirements, transfusion independence, and the incidence of poor graft function (PGF) in antithymocyte globulin (ATG)-based haplo-SCT with PBSC grafts during long-term follow-up. We prospectively evaluated 510 patients with hematologic malignancies who underwent haplo-SCT after myeloablative conditioning (MAC). The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS), and secondary endpoints were nonrelapse mortality (NRM), graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), relapse, neutrophil and platelet engraftment, blood transfusion requirements, transfusion independence, and the incidence of PGF. There was no significant association between ABO matching and OS, disease-free survival (DFS), relapse, NRM, grade II-IV acute GVHD, grade III-IV acute GVHD, and moderate and severe chronic GVHD. There were also no significant differences in neutrophil and platelet engraftment, blood transfusion independence, and transfusion requirements at 30, 60, 90, 180, and 365 days post-transplantation among patients with ABO matching and those with minor, major, or bidirectional ABO incompatibility. Donor-recipient ABO matching did not differ significantly according to graft function (good versus poor). ABO incompatibility status has no major impact on patient outcomes in patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing ATG-based MAC haplo-SCT with PBSC-derived grafts.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Patient-specific human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genomic loss (HLA loss) is one of the reputed mechanisms of leukemia immune escape and relapse after haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). However, clinical characteristics and prognosis of this distinct relapse type in the setting of haploidentical HSCT based on antithymocyte globulin (ATG) T-cell-replete conditioning are still unknown, especially for patients with lymphoid leukemia. OBJECTIVE To identify the incidence of and patient characteristics associated with HLA loss at hematologic cancer relapse after ATG-based haploidentical HSCT and to assess overall survival after HLA loss at relapse. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This retrospective and multicenter case series study used data from medical records to identify patients who experienced relapse of hematologic cancer after receipt of ATG-based haploidentical HSCT. The study included 788 consecutive patients aged 8 to 70 years with lymphoid or myeloid leukemia who received ATG T-cell-replete haploidentical HSCT at the Zhejiang Cooperative Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation between May 1, 2012, and May 31, 2021. EXPOSURES Relapse after ATG-based haploidentical HSCT. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Incidence, risk factors, and postrelapse overall survival among patients with HLA loss at hematologic cancer relapse after receipt of haploidentical HSCT. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify characteristics associated with the likelihood of HLA loss, and Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were performed to evaluate postrelapse survival. RESULTS A total of 788 patients who received haploidentical HSCT for hematologic cancer were identified, 180 of whom experienced relapse after HSCT. Of those, 106 evaluable patients (median age, 30.9 years [range, 8.3-64.6 years]; 54 female [50.9%] and 52 male [49.1%]) were screened for HLA loss, which was detected in 54 patients (50.9%). Patients with HLA loss experienced relapse later than those without HLA loss (lymphoid group: median, 323 days [range, 98-2056 days] vs 151 days [range, 57-2544 days]; P = .01; myeloid group: median, 321 days [range, 55-1574 days] vs 223 days [range, 68-546 days]; P = .03). Among patients with lymphoid leukemia, those with minimal residual disease positivity before hematologic relapse (odds ratio [OR], 28.47; 95% CI, 1.99-407.98; P = .01), those with chronic graft-vs-host disease (OR, 27.68; 95% CI, 1.40-546.88; P = .03), and those with more than 180 days between HSCT and relapse (OR, 6.91; 95% CI, 1.32-36.22; P = .02) were more likely to lose unshared HLA at relapse, whereas male patients (OR, 0.03; 95% CI, 0.003-0.32; P = .04) were more likely to preserve their HLA genome at relapse. Patients with myeloid leukemia had different factors associated with HLA loss, including underweight status (OR, 0.10; 95% CI, 0.02-0.60; P = .01) and acute graft-vs-host disease (OR, 4.84; 95% CI, 1.14-20.53; P = .03). The receipt of preemptive donor lymphocyte infusion among patients with minimal residual disease recurrence did not postpone hematologic cancer relapse in those with HLA loss (median, 322 days [range, 204-1030 days]) compared with no receipt of donor lymphocyte infusion (median, 340 days [range, 215 days to not available]; P > .99). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In this study, HLA loss at leukemia relapse occurred frequently after receipt of ATG-based haploidentical HSCT. The identification of risk factors associated with HLA loss would help to prompt screening, avoid potentially harmful infusions of donor T cells, and develop alternative therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim
COVID-19 has resulted in reduced exposure to on-call shifts where medical students could increase confidence and proficiency in task prioritisation and decision making. Existing ‘simulated on-calls’ provide a substitute in a controlled environment, however in person teaching has also been limited by COVID-19. Our virtual on-call sessions use ZOOM to replicate the higher-level learning experiences normally conferred by live simulation.
Method
We designed a series of virtual ‘on-calls’ for medical students. Participants were ‘on-call’, receiving ‘bleeps’ which were ‘answered’ by calling a facilitator via ZOOM. The facilitator would roleplay a scenario and the ‘Electronic Patient Record’ (EPR) on Google Forms contained patient notes and observations. Students needed to collect information from the facilitator and document a management plan into the EPR. Participants received ‘bleeps’ of varying complexity, urgency and relevance and were expected to prioritise and triage tasks accordingly. Evaluation was via a pre/post session quiz with separate feedback forms.
Results
23 students from 18 universities participated. Students reported increased confidence in managing on-call scenarios, and average scores improved in the post session quiz. Positive feedback was paid to the variety of scenarios, the EPR system and the feeling of realism elicited from the need to triage and prioritise jobs.
Conclusions
Our framework uses readily accessible technology to provide interactive learning experience. Feedback suggested students engaged in higher order learning and thinking, achieving our stated aims. We aim to incorporate technologies such as automation software which will allow for a scalable, free, and accessible virtual on call.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the clinical utility of prenatal chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) in fetuses with abnormal renal sonographic findings, and to evaluate the association of pathogenic or likely pathogenic copy number variants (P/LP CNVs) with different types of renal abnormality. METHODS This was a retrospective study of fetuses at 14-36 weeks screened routinely for renal and other structural abnormalities at the Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. We retrieved and analyzed data from fetuses with abnormal renal sonographic findings, examined between January 2013 and November 2019, which underwent CMA analysis using tissue obtained from chorionic villus sampling (CVS), amniocentesis or cordocentesis. We evaluated the CMA findings according to type of renal ultrasound anomaly and according to whether renal anomalies were isolated or non-isolated. RESULTS Ten types of renal anomaly were reported on prenatal ultrasound screening, at a mean ± SD gestational age of 24.9 ± 4.8 weeks. The anomalies were diagnosed relatively late in this series, as 64% of cases with an isolated renal anomaly underwent cordocentesis rather than CVS. Fetal pyelectasis was the most common renal ultrasound finding, affecting around one-third (34.32%, 301/877) of fetuses with a renal anomaly, but only 3.65% (n = 11) of these harbored a P/LP CNV (comprising: isolated cases, 2.37% (4/169); non-isolated cases, 5.30% (7/132)). Hyperechogenic kidney was found in 5.47% (n = 48) of fetuses with a renal anomaly, of which 39.58% (n = 19) had a P/LP CNV finding (comprising: isolated cases, 44.44% (16/36); non-isolated cases, 25.00% (3/12)), the highest diagnostic yield among the different types of renal anomaly. Renal agenesis, which accounted for 9.92% (n = 87) of all abnormal renal cases, had a CMA diagnostic yield of 12.64% (n = 11) (comprising: isolated cases, 11.54% (9/78); non-isolated cases, 22.22% (2/9); unilateral cases, 11.39% (9/79); bilateral cases, 25.00% (2/8)), while multicystic dysplastic kidney (n = 110), renal cyst (n = 34), renal dysplasia (n = 27), crossed fused renal ectopia (n = 31), hydronephrosis (n = 98), renal duplication (n = 42) and ectopic kidney (n = 99) had overall diagnostic rates of 11.82%, 11.76%, 7.41%, 6.45%, 6.12%, 4.76% and 3.03%, respectively. Compared with the combined group of CMA-negative fetuses with any other type of renal anomaly, the rate of infant being alive and well at birth was significantly higher in CMA-negative fetuses with isolated fetal pyelectasis or ectopic kidney, whereas the rate was significantly lower in fetuses with isolated renal agenesis, multicystic dysplastic kidney or severe hydronephrosis. The most common pathogenic CNV was 17q12 deletion, which accounted for 30.14% (22/73) of all positive CMA findings, with a rate of 2.51% (22/877) among fetuses with an abnormal renal finding. Fetuses with 17q12 deletion exhibited a wide range of renal phenotypes. Other P/LP CNVs in the recurrent region that were associated with prenatal renal ultrasound abnormalities included 22q11.2, Xp21.1, Xp22.3, 2q13, 16p11.2 and 1q21, which, collectively, accounted for 2.17% (19/877) of the fetuses with prenatal renal anomalies. CONCLUSIONS In this retrospective review of CMA findings in a large cohort of fetuses with different types of renal ultrasound abnormality, the P/LP CNV detection rate varied significantly (3.03-39.58%) among the different types of kidney anomaly. Our data may help in the decision regarding whether to perform prenatal genetic testing in fetuses with renal ultrasound findings. Specifically, prenatal CMA testing should be performed in cases of hyperechogenic kidney, regardless of whether or not the anomaly is isolated, while it should be performed postnatally rather than prenatally in cases of fetal pyelectasis. © 2021 International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Abstract
Trade-offs exist for xerophytic shrubs between functional traits, involving in water loss and assimilate accumulation, can contribute to its survival and growth rate regulation in arid environments. However, growth analysis based on plant functional traits has been focused on the study of herbs and woody species. It is still unclear how the functional traits of xerophytic shrubs regulate their growth rate. In this study, we selectedeight xerophytic shrubs as samples to analyze the regulation process of the functional traits of shrubs on growth rate. Plants were cultivated for three years, and three harvests (every one year) were carried out. Factors explaining between-species differences in relative growth rate (RGR) varied, depending on whether different ages were considered. The results showed that RGR was positively correlated with net assimilation rate, but there was a significant negative correlation with leaf area ration (LAR), specific leaf area (SLA), and leaf biomass ratio in the age 1. However, in the age 2, RGR showed a significant positive correlation with the morphological traits (i.e., leaf area ration and specific leaf area), but not with physiological traits (i.e., net assimilation rate) and leaf biomass allocation. Our results suggested that the fluctuation of environmental factors affects the regulation path of the plant functional traits on RGR of xerophytic shrubs. However, the analysis of causality model showed that no matter in which age, net assimilation rate and leaf area ration principally drive the variation in RGR among xerophytic shrubs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an efficacious operation that improves pain and function in patients with knee arthritis. Because of the population ageing trend in Hong Kong, there is a need to determine the safety profile of TKA in older patients. This study examined the age of patients who underwent TKA in the past 10 years in Hong Kong; the aim was to investigate the mortality safety profile and clinical outcomes of TKA in patients aged ≥80 years. METHODS This study included all patients who underwent primary TKA in the Hospital Authority (HA) from 2010 to 2019. Incidences of 30-day, 90-day, and 1-year mortality were established. Clinical outcomes of patients aged ≥80 years in one cluster of HA hospitals were assessed. RESULTS Between 2010 and 2019, 25 040 TKA procedures were conducted in all HA hospitals; 2491 were conducted in patients aged ≥80 years. The median age at operation was higher during 2015-2019 than during 2010-2014 (70 vs 69 years; P<0.001); furthermore, an increase was observed in the proportion of patients aged ≥80 years at the time of operation. Incidences of 30-day, 90-day, and 1-year mortality were 0.156%, 0.35%, and 1.09%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS In this first study to examine the safety profile of TKA in older patients in Hong Kong, the mean age at the time of TKA and proportion of patients aged ≥80 years have steadily risen in the past decade. Even in older patients, TKA is a reasonably safe procedure.

AIM To objectively examine the agreement and correlation between four-dimensional (4D) flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and traditional two-dimensional (2D) phase-contrast (PC) MRI with the reference standard of Doppler echocardiography for measuring peak blood velocity at the cardiac valve and great arteries, and to assess if 4D flow MRI offers an advantage over the traditional 2D method. MATERIALS AND METHODS The literature was searched systematically for studies that evaluate the degree of correlation and agreement between 4D flow MRI or 2D PC MRI and Doppler retrieved from PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library. A meta-analysis was conducted to determine the peak velocity pooled bias with 95% limits of agreement (LoA) and correlation coefficient (r) for 4D flow MRI and 2D PC MRI compared with Doppler. RESULTS Ten studies that compared 4D flow MRI with Doppler and 12 studies that compared 2D PC MRI with Doppler were included. 4D flow MRI showed an underestimation with bias and 95% LoA of -0.09 (-0.41, 0.24) m/s (p=0.079) while 2D PC MRI showed a poorer agreement with a bias and 95% LoA of -0.25 (-0.53, 0.03), p=0.596. 4D flow MRI and 2D PC MRI showed a strong correlation with R=0.80 (95% CI 0.75, 0.84; p<0.001) and R=0.83 (95% CI 0.79, 0.87; p<0.001), respectively. CONCLUSION In this meta-analysis, 4D flow MRI provides improved assessment of peak velocity when compared with traditional 2D PC MRI. 4D flow MRI can be considered an important complement or substitute to Doppler echocardiography for peak velocity assessment.

Abstract
Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is a well-recognized complication of ABO major mismatched allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), with a reported incidence of 10%-20% (Zhidong et al., 2012; Busca et al., 2018). It is clinically characterized by anemia, reticulocytopenia, and the absence of erythroblasts in a normal-appearing bone marrow biopsy (Shahan and Hildebrandt, 2015). The mechanism for PRCA has been presumed to be persistence of recipient isoagglutinins, produced by residual host B lymphocytes or plasma cells, which can interfere with the engraftment of donor erythroid cells (Zhidong et al., 2012). Several risk factors of PRCA at presentation are known, such as presence of anti-A isoagglutinins before transplantation, reduced intensity conditioning, absence of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), sibling donors, and cyclosporin A (CsA) as GVHD prophylaxis (Hirokawa et al., 2013). PRCA is not considered to be a barrier to HSCT, as some patients can recover spontaneously or benefit from various approaches including high-dose steroids, erythropoietin (EPO), plasma exchange, immunoadsorption, donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI), treatment with rituximab, bortezomib, or daratumumab, and tapering or discontinuation of immunosuppression (Hirokawa et al., 2013; Bathini et al., 2019). However, there are still some patients who fail to respond even to aggressive treatment; they become red cell transfusion-dependent and iron-overloaded, and their life quality is impaired.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma, a common malignant tumor in orthopedics, often has a very poor prognosis after lung metastasis. Immunotherapy has not achieved much progress in the treatment because of the characteristics of solid tumors and immune environment of osteosarcoma. The tumor environment is rather essential for sarcoma treatment. Our previous study demonstrated that heat shock proteins could be used as antitumor vaccines by carrying tumor antigen peptides, and we hypothesize that an anti-osteosarcoma effect may be increased with an immune check point inhibitor (PD-L1 inhibitor) as a combination treatment strategy. The present study prepared a multisubtype mixed heat shock protein osteosarcoma vaccine (mHSP/peptide vaccine) and concluded that the mHSP/peptide vaccine was more effective than a single subtype heat shock protein, like Grp94. Therefore, we used the mHSP/peptide vaccine in combination with a PD-L1 inhibitor to treat osteosarcoma, and the deterioration of osteosarcoma was effectively hampered. The mechanism of combined therapy was investigated, and AKT expression participates with sarcoma lung metastasis. This study proposed an antisarcoma strategy via stimulation of the immune system as a further alternative approach for sarcoma treatment and elucidated the mechanism of combined therapy.

Abstract
Myelodysplastic syndrome with myelofibrosis (MDS-MF) has been associated with an inferior prognosis compared with MDS without MF. However, MDS-MF is not listed independently as a subtype of MDS, and its clinical and genetic characteristics remain poorly understood. We retrospectively compared 53 patients with MDS-MF (44 MF grade 1/MF1; 9 MF grade 2-3/MF2 - 3) and 31 with de novo MDS without MF (MDS). The leukemic transformation risks of both MDS-MF2 - 3 and MDS-MF1 were increased compared with the MDS group. To identify the potential mechanisms responsible for the leukemic transformation of MDS-MF, we performed single-cell sequencing for one MDS-MF2 - 3 patient before and after leukemic transformation to explore the variations in gene expression levels. In addition to upgraded expression levels of acute myeloid leukemia-related genes during leukemic transformation, expression levels of some inflammation-related genes (such as S100s, RNASE3, and CYBB) were also increased, and inflammation-related pathways were up-regulated. These results suggest that inflammation-related genes and pathways may play an important role in the leukemic transformation of MDS-MF.

Abstract
Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is a life-threatening pulmonary manifestation of chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) post-allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), without clear standard of care. This study included 30 patients undergoing an allogeneic HSCT for a hematological malignancy and the outcomes with post-HSCT BOS treated with ruxolitinib as a salvage treatment were reviewed. After a median duration of ruxolitinib therapy of 9.25 (1.5–27) months, the best overall response (BOR) rate was 66.7%: three patients (10.0%) achieved complete remission, and 17 (56.7%) achieved partial remission. The median time from initiation of ruxolitinib to achieve the best responses was 3 months. Since initiating ruxolitinib, forced expiratory volume in 1 s of predicted (FEV1%pred) slightly increased after 3 and 6 months compared with measurements before ruxolitinib in responders. Only FEV1%pred mild decline before ruxolitinib with a ratio ≤15% was an independent predictor to achieve a response to ruxolitinib. Eleven patients (36.7%) had severe pulmonary infection of ≥3 grade. Following a median follow-up of 318 days after ruxolitinib, the 2-years incidence of nonrelapse mortality and 2-years overall survival rate after ruxolitinib among patients with BOS was 25.1 and 62.6%, respectively. Ruxolitinib is a promising treatment option to improve the prognosis of post-HSCT BOS.

Abstract
Backgrounds Diabetes mellitus is an independent risk factor for Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients undergoing Coronary arteriography (CAG)/percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is the gold standard to measure blood glucose control, which has important clinical significance for evaluating blood glucose control in diabetic patients in the past 3 months. This study aimed to assess whether preoperative HbA1c levels in diabetic patients who received CAG/PCI impacted the occurrence of postoperative CIN. Methods We reviewed the incidence of preoperative HbA1c and postoperative CIN in 670 patients with CAG/PCI from January 1, 2020 to October 30, 2020 and divided the preoperative HbA1c levels into 5 groups. Blood samples were collected at admission, 48 h and 72 h after operation to measure the Scr value of patients. Categorical variables were compared using a chi-square test, and continuous variables were compared using an analysis of variance. Fisher’s exact test was used to compare the percentages when the expected frequency was less than 5. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to exclude the influence of confounding factors, and P for trend was used to analyze the trend between HbA1c levels and the increased risk of CIN. Results Patients with elevated HbA1c had higher BMI, FBG, and LDL-C, and they were more often on therapy with hypoglycemic agents, Insulin and PCI. They also had higher basal, 48 h and 72 h Scr. The incidence of CIN in the 5 groups of patients were: 9.8, 11.9, 15.2, 25.3, 48.1%. (p < 0.0001) The multivariate analysis confirmed that in the main high-risk subgroup, patients with elevated HbA1C levels (≥8.8%) had a higher risk of CIN disease. Trend test showed the change of OR (1.000,1.248,1.553,2.625,5.829). Conclusions Studies have shown that in diabetic patients undergoing CAG/PCI, elevated HbA1c is independently associated with the risk of CIN, and when HbA1c > 9.5%, the incidence of CIN trends increase. Therefore, we should attach great importance to patients with elevated HbA1c at admission and take more active measures to prevent CIN.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the impact of iron deficiency (ID) on prognosis in heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Methods: A total of 215 consecutive patients with HFpEF, who visited the cardiovascular outpatient department of Beijing Anzhen Hospital, were enrolled in this prospective study. The plasma ferritin level and transferin saturation were measured. Patients were divided into two groups: ID group and non-ID group. ID patients were further divided into absolute ID subgroup and functional ID subgroup. Patients were followed up to 1 year. The endpoints of the study were all-cause mortality and rehospitalization for heart failure (HF). The independent predictors of outcome were determined by Cox regression model. The quality of life of patients was evaluated at the end of the follow-up. Results: The age of this patient cohort was (67±8) years, 39.1% patients were male. The prevalence of ID was 54.4%. Within one year of follow-up, 37 patients (17.2%) died and 70 patients (32.6%) were rehospitalized for HF. Compared to non-ID group, patients in ID group were older, had higher heart rate, lower plasma hemoglobin level and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) value, had a higher prevalence of anemia and chronic kidney disease (P all<0.05). Kaplan-Meier curves showed that all-cause mortality and rehospitalization for HF in HFpEF patients with ID were higher than patients without ID, and prognosis was similar between patients with absolute ID and functional ID. Multivariable regression analysis showed that ID was an independent predictor for all-cause mortality and rehospitalization for HF in HFpEF patients. The of 6 minutes walking distance was shorter ((356.0±98.3)m vs. (389.2±94.3)m, P=0.023), and the value in Kansas city cardiomyopathy questionnaire was lower ((58.06±10.43) m vs. (61.51±11.64) m, P = 0.039) in patients with ID than patients without ID. Conclusion: In patients with chronic HFpEF, ID is an independent predictor for all-cause mortality and rehospitalization for HF at one year of follow-up, independent of the types of ID.

Abstract
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) remains an important complication with devastating consequences after total joint arthroplasties. With the increasing number of arthroplasties worldwide, the number of PJI will increase correspondingly with a significant economic burden to our healthcare system. It is likely impossible to completely eradicate PJI; hence, assessment and optimization of its risk factors to preventing such a disastrous complication will be the key. There are many strategies to prevent PJI in the preoperative, intraoperative, or postoperative phases. The preoperative assessment provides a unique opportunity to screen and diagnose underlying comorbidities and optimize modifiable risk factors before elective surgeries. In this review, we will focus on current literature in preoperative assessment of various modifiable risk factors and share the experience and practical approach in our institution in preoperative optimization to reduce PJI in total joint arthroplasties.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the potential effects of miR-200c on proliferation and apoptosis of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS Micro ribonucleic acid-200c (miR-200c) inhibitor was transfected to down-regulate miR-200c expression. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), colony formation experiment, and flow cytometry were used to detect the effects of miR-200c knockdown on proliferation and apoptosis of Butylated Hydroxytoluene 101 (BHT101) cells. The dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was conducted to detect whether miR-200c directly binds to the target gene. After knocking down miR-200c, quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting analysis were performed to detect changes of target genes regarding messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein. Western blotting analysis was also adopted to detect gene expression of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway-related proteins. RESULTS Compared with those in control group, the proliferation and clone formation ability of BHT101 cells in miR-200c knockdown group were significantly inhibited (p<0.05), while the apoptosis rate increased markedly (p<0.05). Dachshund Family Transcription Factor 1 (DACH1) was the direct target gene of miR-200c. After miR-200c knockdown, the expression levels of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway members (including c-Myc, β catenin and cyclin D1) all decreased. CONCLUSIONS MiR-200c is a tumor suppressor miRNA, which promotes proliferation of PTC cells and activates Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway by directly regulating the corresponding target protein, DACH1.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Ruxolitinib, a selective inhibitor of the Janus kinases 1/2 signaling pathway, has shown a significant response in steroid-refractory chronic graft-vs-host disease (SR-cGVHD), a major cause of morbidity and mortality in individuals who have undergone allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). OBJECTIVES To investigate the clinical response to ruxolitinib in patients with SR-cGVHD after allogeneic HSCT and to evaluate its safety profile during the treatment course. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This single-center case series included 41 consecutive patients who were treated with ruxolitinib for SR-cGVHD after allogeneic HSCT between August 2017 and December 2019. Data were collected from each patient's medical record at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine. Data analysis was conducted from March to May 2020. EXPOSURE Ruxolitinib. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Treatment responses, factors associated with response, and adverse effects during ruxolitinib administration. FINDINGS Overall, 41 patients (median [range] age, 31 [17-56] years; 14 [34.1%] women) were treated with ruxolitinib and included in this study. A total of 15 patients (36.6%) had a complete remission, and 14 (34.1%) had a partial remission, with an overall response rate of 70.7% (29 patients; 95% CI, 56.2%-85.3%). Lung involvement (odds ratio, 0.112; 95% CI, 0.020-0.639; P = .01) and matched related donors (odds ratio, 0.149; 95% CI, 0.022-0.981; P = .048) were associated with less favorable treatment response. Major adverse events associated with ruxolitinib were cytopenias and infectious complications. The median (range) follow-up for this cohort was 14.9 (1.4-32.5) months. Prolonged survival was observed in patients with a male donor (P = .006), complete remission before transplantation (P = .02), baseline moderate cGVHD (P = .02), and skin cGVHD (P = .001). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In this small, single-site case series, ruxolitinib demonstrated a significant response in heavily pretreated patients with SR-cGVHD and a reasonably well-tolerated safety profile. The results add to the body of literature suggesting ruxolitinib as a promising treatment option in SR-cGVHD.

Abstract
The present study investigated the effects of protein restriction and antibiotics on the hypothalamus-pituitary-liver growth axis during the compensatory growth of growing and finishing pigs. Growth performance, serum hormones, and messenger RNA (mRNA) levels of hormones and their receptors in growth axis tissues were recorded for analyses. A total of 64 piglets (large white × Landrace × Duroc cross) with an initial weight of 10.07 ± 0.14 kg were randomly divided into 4 treatment groups of 16 piglets per group. The dietary treatments consisted of 2 protein levels (14% and 20%) and 2 antibiotic levels (no antibiotics and 20 mg/kg colistin sulfate with 50 mg/kg kitasamycin) in a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement. The study was performed over 30 d for the first stage (S1, restriction phase) and 74 d for the second stage (S2, realimentation phase). The 4 treatment diets were maintained throughout the duration in the restriction phase. The 4 groups were fed the same diet in the realimentation phase. The trial period totaled 104 d. Protein restriction decreased BW, average daily food intake, and ADG in weaning pigs (P < 0.01) and induced compensatory growth after feeding a normal diet during the growth of finishing pigs. Average daily gain increased during the last phase of compensatory growth (P < 0.01). Protein restriction increased serum GH and leptin (LEP) and the mRNA levels of liver IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1-R; P < 0.01) but decreased serum IGF-1 (P < 0.01) and the mRNA levels of liver GH receptor (GH-R; P < 0.01) and IGF-1 (P < 0.05) in weaning piglets. Serum GH was increased, but serum IGF-1 was decreased during the realimentation phase (P < 0.05). Antibiotics increased the mRNA levels of GHRH (P < 0.05) and decreased somatostatin (P < 0.01) in the hypothalamus of weaning pigs. Protein restriction and antibiotics had no interactions across the entire trial. In conclusion, the slowing of growth caused by early protein restriction may be compensated for in the later stages of pig raising, and the mechanism of compensation is related to the regulation of GH, IGF-1, GH-R, and IGF-1-R.

Abstract
AIM To assess the prognostic role of unrecognised myocardial infarction (UMI) detected at late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (LGE-CMRII). MATERIALS AND METHODS Electronic databases including PubMed, EMBASE, Medline, and Cochrane were searched systematically for studies exploring the predictive value of UMI detected by LGE-CMRI for major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) and all-cause mortality in patients without apparent symptoms. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) along with their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were obtained from a random-effects model. Subgroup analyses were performed according to the different participants and outcomes. RESULTS Eight studies (2,009 participants) were identified comprising 442 patients with UMI detected at LGE-CMRI and 1,567 without UMI. The presence of UMI on LGE was associated with a significantly increased risk for MACEs (HRs: 3.44, 95% CI: 2.06 to 5.75; p<0.001) and all-cause mortality (HRs: 2.43, 95% CI: 1.00 to 5.87; p=0.05). In the subgroup analysis, the presence of UMI on LGE remained significantly associated with the risk of MACEs in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (HRs: 3.82, 95% CI: 2.49 to 5.85; p<0.01) and diabetes mellitus (HRs: 4.97, 95% CI: 3.02 to 8.18; p<0.01). CONCLUSION The presence of UMI detected by LGE-CMRI is associated with an increased risk of MACEs and all-cause mortality in patients without symptoms. LGE-CMRI could provide important prognostic information and guide risk stratification in patients with UMI.
