Abstract
OBJECTIVES Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimating equations based on rescaled serum creatinine (SCr/Q) have shown better performance, where Q represents the median SCr for age- and sex-specific healthy populations. However, there remains a scarcity of investigations in China to determine this value. We aimed to develop Chinese age- and sex-specific reference intervals (RIs) and Q-values for SCr and to validate the equations incorporating new Q-values. METHODS We included 117,345 adults from five centers for establishing RIs and Q-values, and 3,692 participants with reference GFR (rGFR, 99mTc-DTPA renal dynamic imaging measurement) for validation. Appropriate age partitioning was determined using the decision tree method. Lower and upper reference limits and medians were calculated using the refineR algorithm, and Q-values were determined accordingly. We evaluated the full age spectrum (FAS) and European Kidney Function Consortium (EKFC) equations incorporating different Q-values considering bias, precision (interquartile range, IQR), and accuracy (percentage of estimates within ±20 % [P20] and ±30 % [P30] of rGFR). RESULTS RIs for males were: 18-79 years, 55.53-92.50 μmol/L; ≥80 years, 54.41-96.43 μmol/L. RIs for females were: 18-59 years, 40.42-69.73 μmol/L; 60-79 years, 41.16-73.69 μmol/L; ≥80 years, 46.50-73.20 μmol/L. Q-values were set at 73.82 μmol/L (0.84 mg/dL) for males and 53.80 μmol/L (0.61 mg/dL) for females. After validation, we found that the adjusted equations exhibit less bias, improved precision and accuracy, and increased agreement of GFR categories. CONCLUSIONS We determined Chinese age- and sex-specific RIs and Q-values for SCr. The adjustable Q-values provide an effective alternative to obtain valid equations for estimating GFR.

Abstract
The excellent performance of deep neural networks on image classification tasks depends on a large-scale high-quality dataset. However, the datasets collected from the real world are typically biased in their distribution, which will lead to a sharp decline in model performance, mainly because an imbalanced distribution results in the prior shift and covariate shift. Recent studies have typically used a two-stage learning method consisting of two rebalancing strategies to solve these problems, but the combination of partial rebalancing strategies will damage the representational ability of the networks. In addition, the two-stage learning method is of little help in addressing the problem of covariate shift. To solve the above two issues, we first propose a sample logit-aware reweighting method called (SLA), which can not only repair the weights of majority class hard samples and minority class samples but will also integrate with logit adjustment to form a stable two-stage learning strategy. Second, to solve the covariate shift problem, inspired by ensemble learning, we propose a multi-domain expert specialization model, which can achieve a more comprehensive decision by averaging expert classification results from multiple different domains. Finally, we combine SLA and logit adjustment into a two-stage learning method and apply our model to the CIFAR-LT and ImageNet-LT datasets. Compared with the most advanced methods, our experimental results show excellent performance.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the expressions of Nod-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3), cysteine-aspartic acid protease 1 (Caspase-1), and Gasdermin D (GSDMD) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), and their relationships with the recurrence and metastasis of NPC. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 421 patients diagnosed with NPC between December 2014 and January 2020. The expressions of NLRP3, Caspase-1, and GSDMD in pathological specimens were examined with immunohistochemistry and multiplex immunofluorescence staining. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were applied to identify the factors influencing NPC recurrence and metastasis. In vitro experiments with NPC cell line HNE-2 were used to explore the functional mechanisms of NLRP3, Caspase-1, and GSDMD. Results: Multivariate Cox analysis revealed that tumor staging of Ⅲ-Ⅳ(HRrecurrence=2.74, 95%CIrecurrence: 1.61-4.65; HRmetastasis=1.90, 95%CImetastasis: 1.04-3.49) and pre-treatment plasma EBV-DNA levels≥1 500 copies/ml (HRrecurrence=1.91, 95%CIrecurrence: 1.13-3.23; HRmetastasis=2.07, 95%CImetastasis: 1.23-3.50)were independent risk factors for NPC recurrence and metastasis, while positive expression of NLRP3(HRrecurrence=0.17, 95%CIrecurrence: 0.08-0.35; HRmetastasis=0.30, 95%CImetastasis: 0.15-0.59), Caspase-1(HRrecurrence=0.32, 95%CIrecurrence: 0.18-0.59; HRmetastasis=0.43, 95%CImetastasis: 0.25-0.76), and GSDMD(HRrecurrence=0.48, 95%CIrecurrence: 0.25-0.91; HRmetastasis=0.96, 95%CImetastasis: 0.53-1.74) served as independent protective factors. Age (HR=1.02, 95%CI: 1.01-1.04) and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (HR=0.51, 95%CI: 0.30-0.88) were independent factors for NPC recurrence, whereas chemotherapy (HR=0.50, 95%CI: 0.29-0.88) acted as an independent protective factor for NPC metastasis (all P<0.05). NPC patients with positive expressions of the three proteins had higher locoregional recurrence-free survival, distant metastasis-free survival, and overall survival compared to those with negative expressions (all P<0.05). In vitro experiments revealed that the overexpression of NLRP3 activated the NLRP3/Caspase-1/GSDMD signaling pathway, as evidenced by Western Blot analysis. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and scanning electron microscopy demonstrated that overexpression of NLRP3 promoted pyroptosis in HNE-2 cells. Cellular functional assays further confirmed that overexpression of NLRP3 significantly inhibited the proliferation, invasion, and migration of HNE-2 cells. Conclusion: Positive expressions of NLRP3, Caspase-1, and GSDMD serves as independent protective factors for recurrence and metastasis of NPC, potentially by promoting cell pyroptosis and thus inhibiting NPC cell proliferation, invasion, and migration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We explored whether parents of children with hematopathy had more psychosocial problems than parents of healthy children during the COVID-19 outbreak. SUBJECTS AND METHODS An online survey was performed, and a total of 1,116 parents participated. The mental health variables were assessed via the Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ) and the Symptom Checklist-Revised (SCL-90-R). RESULTS Compared with parents of healthy children, parents of children with hematopathy have a higher possibility of negative coping style (70.9% vs. 33.2%, p=0.01) and are more concerned with media reports related to the pandemic (37.8% vs. 17.6%, p=0.02). In SCL-90-R somatization, obsessive-compulsive, and anxiety scale, the parents of children with hematopathy have higher scores than parents of healthy children (12.50±1.69 vs. 12.23±1.37, p<0.01; 13.42±6.69 vs. 10.47±2.25, p<0.01; 15.21±5.53 vs. 10.52±2.34, p<0.01, respectively). History of visiting Wuhan, and history of epidemics occurring in the community are independent risk factors of parental obsessive-compulsive and anxiety symptoms (p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Parents of children with hematopathy had evident severe symptoms of obsessive-compulsive and anxiety during the outbreak of COVID-19. Providing psychological interventions and beneficial approaches to parents of children with hematopathy urgently needs to be realized.

Abstract
The T2K experiment presents new measurements of neutrino oscillation parameters using 19.7 ( 16.3 ) × 10 20 protons on target (POT) in (anti-)neutrino mode at the far detector (FD). Compared to the previous analysis, an additional 4.7 × 10 20 POT neutrino data was collected at the FD. Significant improvements were made to the analysis methodology, with the near-detector analysis introducing new selections and using more than double the data. Additionally, this is the first T2K oscillation analysis to use NA61/SHINE data on a replica of the T2K target to tune the neutrino flux model, and the neutrino interaction model was improved to include new nuclear effects and calculations. Frequentist and Bayesian analyses are presented, including results on sin 2 θ 13 and the impact of priors on the δ CP measurement. Both analyses prefer the normal mass ordering and upper octant of sin 2 θ 23 with a nearly maximally CP-violating phase. Assuming the normal ordering and using the constraint on sin 2 θ 13 from reactors, sin 2 θ 23 = 0 . 561 - 0.032 + 0.021 using Feldman-Cousins corrected intervals, and Δ m 32 2 = 2 . 494 - 0.058 + 0.041 × 10 - 3 eV 2 using constant Δ χ 2 intervals. The CP-violating phase is constrained to δ CP = - 1 . 97 - 0.70 + 0.97 using Feldman-Cousins corrected intervals, and δ CP = 0 , π is excluded at more than 90% confidence level. A Jarlskog invariant of zero is excluded at more than 2 σ credible level using a flat prior in δ CP , and just below 2 σ using a flat prior in sin δ CP . When the external constraint on sin 2 θ 13 is removed, sin 2 θ 13 = 28 . 0 - 6.5 + 2.8 × 10 - 3 , in agreement with measurements from reactor experiments. These results are consistent with previous T2K analyses.

Abstract
Introduction Spiking neural networks (SNNs), inspired by biological neural networks, have received a surge of interest due to its temporal encoding. Biological neural networks are driven by multiple plasticities, including spike timing-dependent plasticity (STDP), structural plasticity, and homeostatic plasticity, making network connection patterns and weights to change continuously during the lifecycle. However, it is unclear how these plasticities interact to shape neural networks and affect neural signal processing. Method Here, we propose a reward-modulated self-organization recurrent network with structural plasticity (RSRN-SP) to investigate this issue. Specifically, RSRN-SP uses spikes to encode information, and incorporate multiple plasticities including reward-modulated spike timing-dependent plasticity (R-STDP), homeostatic plasticity, and structural plasticity. On the one hand, combined with homeostatic plasticity, R-STDP is presented to guide the updating of synaptic weights. On the other hand, structural plasticity is utilized to simulate the growth and pruning of synaptic connections. Results and discussion Extensive experiments for sequential learning tasks are conducted to demonstrate the representational ability of the RSRN-SP, including counting task, motion prediction, and motion generation. Furthermore, the simulations also indicate that the characteristics arose from the RSRN-SP are consistent with biological observations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of acupuncture combined with Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) on mood disorder symptoms for menopausal women. METHODS A total of 95 qualified Chinese participants were randomly assigned to one of three groups: 31 in the acupuncture combined with CHM group (combined group), 32 in the acupuncture combined with CHM placebo group (acupuncture group) and 32 in the CHM combined with sham acupuncture group (CHM group). The patients were treated for 8 weeks and followed up for 4 weeks. The data were collected using the Greene Climacteric Scale (GCS), self-rating depression scale (SDS), self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and safety index. RESULTS The three groups each showed significant decreases in the GCS, SDS and SAS after treatment (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the effect on the GCS total score and the anxiety domain lasted until the follow-up period in the combined group (p < 0.05). Within the three groups, there was no difference in GCS and SAS between the three groups after treatment (p > 0.05). However, the combined group showed significant improvement in the SDS, compared with both the acupuncture group and the CHM group at 8 weeks and 12 weeks (p < 0.05). No obvious abnormal cases were found in any of the safety indexes. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that either acupuncture, or CHM or combined therapy offer safe improvement of mood disorder symptoms for menopausal women. However, the combination therapy was associated with more stable effects in the follow-up period and a superior effect on improving depression symptoms.

Abstract
We report a search for cosmic-ray boosted dark matter with protons using the 0.37 megaton×years data collected at Super-Kamiokande experiment during the 1996-2018 period (SKI-IV phase). We searched for an excess of proton recoils above the atmospheric neutrino background from the vicinity of the Galactic Center. No such excess is observed, and limits are calculated for two reference models of dark matter with either a constant interaction cross section or through a scalar mediator. This is the first experimental search for boosted dark matter with hadrons using directional information. The results present the most stringent limits on cosmic-ray boosted dark matter and exclude the dark matter-nucleon elastic scattering cross section between 10^{-33}cm^{2} and 10^{-27}cm^{2} for dark matter mass from 1 MeV/c^{2} to 300 MeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
In recent years, with the further understanding of medical circles on diabetic ocular complications, the ocular surface abnormalities of diabetes has drawn increasing concerns. Nearly 50% of diabetic patients suffer from dry eye symptoms. The main manifestations of diabetes related dry eye were abnormal lacrimal secretion, poor lacrimal stability, decreased corneal sensitivity, persistent corneal epithelial defect and even corneal ulcer, which were mainly related to the changes of structure and function of lacrimal gland, the decrease of goblet cells in conjunctiva, the abnormality of meibomian gland function and the degeneration of corneal nerve caused by diabetes. In this paper, we summarized and analyzed the recent research progress on the effect of diabetes on lacrimal film, corneal innervation and lacrimal gland innervation, and the correlation between oxidative stress, advanced glycation end products and diabetes-related dry eye, to explore the pathogenesis of diabetes-related dry eye and to provide reference for clinical diagnosis, treatment and research.

Abstract
Hepatotoxicity brought on by acetaminophen (APAP) is significantly impacted by mitochondrial dysfunction. Mitophagy, particularly PINK1-mediated mitophagy, maintains the stability of cell function by eliminating damaged mitochondria. One of the most prevalent dietary polyphenols, chlorogenic acid (CGA), has been shown to have hepatoprotective properties. It is yet unknown, nevertheless, whether its defense against hepatocyte apoptosis involves triggering PINK1-mediated mitophagy. In vitro and in vivo models of APAP-induced hepatotoxicity were established to observe CGA's effect and mechanism in preventing hepatotoxicity in the present study. Serum aminotransferase levels, mouse liver histology, and the survival rate of HepG2 cells and mice were also assessed. The outcomes showed that CGA could reduce the activities of serum enzymes such as alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and alleviate liver injury in mice. It could also significantly increase the cell viability of HepG2 cells and the 24-h survival rate of mice. TUNEL labeling and Western blotting were used to identify the hepatocyte apoptosis level. According to data, CGA could significantly reduce liver cell apoptosis in vivo. Additionally, Tom20 and LC3II colocalization in mitochondria may be facilitated by CGA. CGA considerably increased the levels of genes and proteins associated with mitophagy (PINK1, Parkin, LC3II/LC3I), while considerably decreasing the levels of p62 and Tom20, suggesting that it might activate PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy in APAP-induced liver damage. Additionally, the protection of CGA was reduced when PINK1 was knocked down by siPINK1 in HepG2 cells, and it did not upregulate mitophagy-related proteins (PINK1, Parkin, LC3II/LC3I). In conclusion, our findings revealed that long-term consumption of food-derived CGA could prevent APAP hepatotoxicity via increasing PINK1-dependent mitophagy and inhibiting hepatocyte apoptosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There is currently a global nurse shortage. Initial nursing education is the primary preparation for a robust nursing workforce that must be strengthened. OBJECTIVES To describe the developing trends of initial nursing education in China from 2006 to 2017 and to analyze related characteristics and issues. DESIGN A descriptive study with secondary data analysis. METHODS The numbers, educational-level composition and regional distribution (i.e., East, Central, West, and Northeast regions) of students recruited into initial nursing education programs from 2006 to 2017 were analyzed. Changes in the numbers of the nursing workforce from 2006 to 2020 were compared with the changes in education sector to facilitate an interpretation of the development trend of initial nursing education. RESULTS The number of recruits into initial nursing education programs has increased from 0.38 million in 2006 to 0.44 million in 2008, and maintained between 0.5 million and 0.54 million during 2009 to 2017. Students recruited to secondary diploma, advanced diploma, and baccalaureate degree programs accounted for 50.55% (71.46% in 2009), 39.36% and 10.09% of the total in 2017, respectively. There were 3.34 nurses per 1000 population in 2020, a substantial increase from 1.09 in 2006. The regional distribution of recruits was imbalanced, with more recruits per 1000 population in the West (0.49), Central (0.40), Northeast (0.34) and the least in the East (0.26) in 2017. The distribution of nurses was relatively balanced among the four regions. CONCLUSIONS The development in initial nursing education in China is significant from 2006 to 2017. The education sector recruited and graduated about 0.5 million nursing students respectively per year in recent years. If simply considering the number of recruits, it could meet the workforce demands, however, to further upgrade nurses' educational preparation, the recruits into advanced diploma and baccalaureate degree programs need to be increased. A maldistribution of recruits among regions persists, while the distribution of nurses is relatively balanced. Multiple strategies should be adopted to achieve a balance between the supply and demand of nurses, with providing more higher-educated nurses in all regions across mainland China.

Abstract
Objectives: To study the effect of a seven-step rehabilitation training program on cardiac function and quality of life in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: In this study one hundred AMI patients undergoing emergency PCI at The First Hospital of Fangshan District between June 2019 and June 2020 were included. Patients were retrospectively divided into two equal groups based on the type of physiotherapy regiment. The training group included patients who underwent seven-step rehabilitation training while the control group had patients who received routine nursing. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), self-care capability, hospitalization duration, quality of life, and adverse cardiac event incidence were compared. Results: The number of patients with LVEF values ≥ 50% was significantly higher in the training group after one week of training. Training group patients also showed decreased hospitalization duration and larger improvement in self-care capacity scores. At three months after training, training group patients had overall superior quality of life and lower incidence rates of arrhythmia and angina pectoris. Conclusion: The seven-step rehabilitation training program has a significant effect on improving AMI patient quality of life and cardiac function post-PCI, and is worthy of continued study and promotion.

Abstract
Bird feathers are the product of interactions between natural and artificial selection. Feather-related traits are important for chicken selection and breeding. Frizzle feather is characterized by the abnormally development of feathers in chickens. In the current study, frizzle feather characteristics were observed in a local breed called Xiushui Yellow Chicken in Jiangxi, China. To determine the molecular mechanisms that underlie frizzle feather in Xiushui Yellow Chicken, four populations of three breeds (Xiushui Yellow Chicken with frizzle feathers, Xiushui Yellow Chicken with normal feathers, Guangfeng White-Ear Yellow Chicken, and Ningdu Yellow Chicken) were selected for whole-genome resequencing. Using a comparative genome strategy and genome-wide association study, a missense mutation (g.5281494A>G) and a 15-bp deletion (g.5285437-5285451delGATGCCGGCAGGACG) in KRT75L4 were identified as candidate mutations associated with frizzle feather in Xiushui Yellow Chicken. Based on genotyping performed in a large Xiushui Yellow Chicken population, the g.5285437-5285451delGATGCCGGCAGGACG mutation in KRT75L4 was confirmed as the putative causative mutation of frizzle feather. These results deepen the understanding of the molecular mechanisms responsible for frizzle feather, as well as facilitating the molecular detection and selection of the feather phenotype in Xiushui Yellow Chickens.

Abstract
In this study, core-shell mesoporous silica-carbon composite microspheres (Sil@MC) were prepared by one-step coating of the phenol formaldehyde polymer (PF) on SiO2 surface and by carbonizing the PF polymer under nitrogen atmosphere. The morphology observation of the Sil@MC stationary phase showed that it had good monodispersity. Surface area (302 m2/g), mean pore diameter (9.5 nm), and pore volume (0.63 cm3/g) of Sil@MC materials were also measured by pore structure analysis. The results showed that the Sil@MC was successfully immobilized on the silica particles via copolymerization and carbonization. As a stationary phase of HPLC, the Sil@MC column was filled by a slurry method. The Sil@MC materials formed after calcination of SiO2 coated with phenolic resin could be used for the separation of four polar sugar compounds (D-(+)-glucosamine hydrochloride, glucose, D-(+)-trehalose dihydrat and raffinose) with the mobile phase of acetonitrile-water (containing 0.1% (v/v) formic acid). However, the material formed by calcinating SiO2 without coating phenolic resin could not separate these polar sugar compounds by HPLC-MS. Finally, the representative oligosaccharide isomers of raffinose, melezitose and stachyose, nystose, and human milk oligosaccharide isomers, such as 3'-sialyllactose, 6'-sialyllactose and lacto-N-newtetraose, lacto-N-tetraose, were successfully separated by the Sil@MC column with good peak shapes. The results demonstrates that silica-carbon composites derived from phenolic resin have potential application in polar compounds chromatographic separation.

Abstract
To evaluate the clinical value of emergency endovascular embolization in the interventional treatment for oral hemorrhage caused by carcinoma, 32 patients with oral hemorrhage caused by carcinoma, who received emergency endovascular embolization due to unsatisfactory hemostatic effect of conventional conservative treatment in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2014 to December 2019, were included in this study and their clinical data, laboratory data and imaging information were retrospectively analyzed. There were 16 males and 16 females, aged (60.6±13.6) years (34-88 years). Technical successful rate of emergency endovascular embolization, immediate successful rate of controlling hemorrhage, blood pressure before and after operation, hemoglobin before and after operation, postoperative complications and recurrence rate of oral hemorrhage were statistically analyzed. Results showed that technical successful rate of operation and immediate successful rate of controlling oral hemorrhage are both 100% (32/32). Recurrent oral hemorrhage occurred in 4 patients (13%). The hemorrhagic shock symptoms of all patients were significantly improved after interventional therapy. After operation, local swelling happened in 34% (11/32) patients and intermittent local pain happened in 22% (7/32) within 24 hours; the swelling and the pain gradually disappeared from 2nd to 5th days. Mild complications of transient fever happened in 9% (3/32) patients and disappeared spontaneously in the short term. No serious complications such as blindness, cerebrovascular accident or central nervous system disturbance occurred in all patients after operations. During the whole follow-up period (1 to 12 months), a total of 8 patients died. The causes of death were progression and metastasis of carcinoma (n=4), heart failure (n=2), severe pneumonia (n=1) and respiratory failure caused by recurrent oral hemorrhage (n=1). Owing to the remarkable short-term curative effect, repeatable operation, low recurrence rate of oral hemorrhage and low incidence of complications, emergency endovascular embolization can be used in the clinical therapy and application of oral hemorrhage caused by carcinoma.

Abstract
Abstract Virtual autopsy is a new technique for investigating the morphological changes of cadaveric tissues and organs by medical imaging technology. It has been widely used in the identification of causes of death. Multislice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) has become a routine inspection method in some identification institutions, although it cannot completely replace traditional autopsy, it plays a key auxiliary or substitute role in the identification of certain abnormal causes of death. Plain MSCT scan cannot visualize cadaveric vessels, but can perform cadaveric angiography to determine vascular injury or disease. This technology has entered a rapid development period in recent years, and has made a considerable progress in contrast agent, perfusion methods and imaging methods. This article summarizes several common cadaveric MSCT angiography methods, such as systemic angiography, angiography through cardiopulmonary resuscitation, targeted angiography, and angiography by cardiac puncture, and analyzes and compares the application prospects.

Abstract
Abstract Objective To compare the performance of three deep-learning models (VGG19, Inception-V3 and Inception-ResNet-V2) in automatic bone age assessment based on pelvic X-ray radiographs. Methods A total of 962 pelvic X ray radiographs taken from adolescents (481 males, 481 females) aged from 11.0 to 21.0 years in five provinces and cities of China were collected, preprocessed and used as objects of study. Eighty percent of these X ray radiographs were divided into training set and validation set with random sampling method and used for model fitting and hyper-parameters adjustment. Twenty percent were used as test sets, to evaluate the ability of model generalization. The performances of the three models were assessed by comparing the root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE) and Bland-Altman plots between the model estimates and the chronological ages. Results The mean RMSE and MAE between bone age estimates of the VGG19 model and the chronological ages were 1.29 and 1.02 years, respectively. The mean RMSE and MAE between bone age estimates of the Inception-V3 model and the chronological ages were 1.17 and 0.82 years, respectively. The mean RMSE and MAE between bone age estimates of the Inception-ResNet-V2 model and the chronological ages were 1.11 and 0.84 years, respectively. The Bland-Altman plots showed that the mean value of differences between bone age estimates of Inception-ResNet-V2 model and the chronological ages was the lowest. Conclusion In the automatic bone age assessment of adolescent pelvis, the Inception-ResNet-V2 model performs the best while the Inception-V3 model achieves a similar accuracy as VGG19 model.

Abstract
Hydrothermally cross-linked polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) immobilized SiO2 stationary phase (CPVP-Sil) was prepared via a green and facile one-pot method which was demonstrated for hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) as well as reverse phase chromatography(RP). A water or organic solvent-insoluble permanent CPVP immobilizing on the silica particle surface can be formed simply by dipping silica particles into PVP solution and low temperature hydrothermal treatment. The cross-linked PVP network coating on SiO2 endow it ring lactam functional groups which exhibited excellent separation ability of polar compounds by a typical HILIC retention mechanism at higher organic solvent contents (>55% ACN) and additionally polyvinyl groups for separation of alkylbenzenes in RP mode(<25% ACN). A high column efficiency of about 7 × 104 plates per meter was obtained for the test catechol compound. Remarkably, the CPVP-Sil packing materials showed good stability in acid (at pH 3.5) or basic (at pH 9.5) conditions, with 5400-fold column volumes and 3500-fold column volumes respectively.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
During transcatheter aortic/mitral valve replacement (TA/MVR), current available routes are limited due to unfavorable entry-angle, vessel-anatomy or mini-thoracotomy. Through created communication of inter-ventricular septum (C-IVS), transfemoral venous transcatheter access to left ventricle becomes feasible with the assistance of arterio-venous circuit.
Purpose
The study was conducted to investigate the feasibility and safety of transfemoral-venous transcatheter access to left ventricle through the created C-IVS in a swine model.
Methods
Via femoral artery, transcatheter puncture of mid-IVS was performed with the custom-made nickel-titanium needle (0.038-inch, needle-tip bent 60 degrees automatically associated with increased hardness when temperature was above 30°C) and 6F-sheath in 20 healthy Chinese mini-swine. Then femoral arterio-venous circuit was established through created C-IVS with hydrophilic guidewire in all swine, and femoral veno-venous circuit was further created through C-IVS and atrial septum in 4 swine. After pre-dilation of C-IVS, a 20F-sheath was introduced into left ventricle transvenously over the guidewire. Furthermore, transfemoral-venous TAVR was attempted with this approach in one swine. C-IVS was evaluated postoperatively and was further confirmed pathologically 2 months later.
Results
All transcatheter puncture of IVS was performed successfully in left ventricle and the thickness of mid-IVS was 7.67±0.98 mm. During the puncture, ventricular fibrillation occurred in one swine (successfully defibrillation) and only isolated ventricular premature beats/non-sustained ventricular tachycardia were observed in other swine. In all swine, femoral arterio-venous/veno-venous circuit was established via C-IVS, and the 20F-sheath was introduced into left ventricle safely through femoral vein and C-IVS. With the aid of vessel circuit, the 20F-sheath was further advanced into aorta in 16 swine (the entry-angle was 145.3±12.2 degrees) and into left atrium in 4 swine. After the procedure, there was one swine with moderate tricuspid regurgitation and 5 swine with mild residual shunt (2.6±0.7 mm). In addition, epicardial coronary arteries were normal in all swine. Two months later, residual shunt was still detected in 3 swine and the communication was confirmed pathologically. In other swine, there was no defect of IVS and mild replacement-scar was identified along C-IVS. In the swine underwent transfemoral-venous TAVR, prosthetic valve was deployed successfully with good function.
Conclusions
With the aid of vessel circuit, transfemoral-venous transcatheter access to left ventricle is feasible and safe via C-IVS, and transfemoral-venous TAVR was achieved successfully using this novel approach with favorable entry-angle.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
After transcatheter closure of atrial septal defect (ASD), it is still unclear about the in-vivo process of device-endothelialization in humans, which determines the duration of antiplatelet therapy. Based on contrast-uptake within device, cardiac-CT might have the potential to assess device-endothelialization indirectly.
Purpose
The study was conducted to investigate the status of device-endothelialization with cardiac-CT after transcatheter closure of ASD.
Methods
After more than 6 months of transcatheter ASD closure, cardiac-CT was performed in 119 patients (48M/71F; age: 46.7±14.4 years). According to contrast-uptake within device, complete or incomplete device-endothelialization was determined. In the latter, it was further divided into partial-endothelialization (with filling-defect) and no-endothelialization (without filling-defect). Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine the risk factors of incomplete device-endothelialization. In addition, device-endothelialization was analyzed grossly and histopathologically in 7 patients.
Results
During the implantation-period of 2.57±2.59 years, incomplete device-endothelialization was identified in 43.7% of patients (partial-endothelialization in 36 patients and no-endothelialization in 16 patients). Complete device-endothelialization occurred in 14.3% of patients during 0.5–1 year and 73.8% after one year. After 6-month antiplatelet therapy, migraine restarted in 15 patients with incomplete device-endothelialization and 3 patients with complete device-endothelialization. After one-year antiplatelet therapy, migraine was still detected in 4 of 15 patients with incomplete device-endothelialization. There was a significant association between high in-vivo device-thickness and incomplete device-endothelialization (P<0.001) after adjusted for confounding factors. Pathological findings from 7 patients corresponded well with cardiac-CT.
Conclusions
Cardiac-CT had the potential to evaluate the status of device-endothelialization after transcatheter closure of ASD and there was a good clinico-pathological correlation. Incomplete device-endothelialization was common postoperatively in humans and was associated with device-oversizing. Further research is required to determine the appropriate duration of antiplatelet therapy after device implantation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the expression levels of T follicular helper (Tfh) with different subsets in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and their serum interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-17 (IL-17), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP-3) contents. PATIENTS AND METHODS The medical records of 45 RA patients in the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu Medical College from January 2016 to April 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into the RA high activity group (24 cases, group A) (DAS28 score ≥ 5.0) and RA low activity group (21 cases, group B) (3.2 < DAS28 score < 5.0). At the same time, 20 healthy subjects were selected as a control group. Flow cytometry was used to detect the expression levels of Tfh1, Tfh2 and Tfh17, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to detect serum IL-6, IL-17, IL-21 and MMP-3 concentrations. The correlation of Tfh cells with IL-6, IL-17, IL-21 and MMP-3 was analyzed. RESULTS Those of peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) Tfh2 and Tfh17 cells were significantly higher in group A than those in group B (p < 0.05). Compared with the control group, the concentrations of serum IL-6, IL-17 and MMP-3 significantly increased (p < 0.001), but that of serum TGF-β markedly decreased in group A and group B (p < 0.01). The concentrations of serum IL-6, IL-17 and MMP-3 were remarkably higher in group A than those in group B (p < 0.001), but that of serum TGF-β was significantly lower in group A than that in group B (p < 0.001). The expression level of PBMC Tfh2 cells, PBMC Tfh17 cells was positively correlated with serum IL-6, IL-17 and MMP-3. The expression levels of Tfh2 and Tfh17 cells are positively correlated with serum IL-6, IL-17 and MMP-3 concentrations, negatively correlated with serum TGF-β concentration. CONCLUSIONS Tfh2 and Tfh17 are expected to be new targets for immunotherapy in RA patients.

Abstract
Purpose Chlorogenic acid (CGA), a phenolic acid isolated from fruits and vegetables, has been established to have neuroprotective properties in relation to Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the precise mechanism by which CGA prevents cognitive deficits in AD has not been well studied. This study aimed to explore the potential molecular mechanism of CGA action using an Aβ25-35-induced SH-SY5Y neuron injury and cogxnitive deficits model in APP/PS1 mice. Methods Three-month-old male APP/PS1 double transgenic mice and a human neuroblastoma cell line (SH-SY5Y) were used to assess the effects of CGA on AD in vivo and in vitro, respectively. Cognitive function in mice was measured using a Morris water maze (MWM) test. Hematoxylin and eosin, monodansylcadaverine fluorescence, LysoTracker Red (LTR), and immunofluorescence staining were used to evaluate the morphological changes in vivo and in vitro. The protein expressions of autophagy markers (LC3B-II/LC3B-I, p62/SQSTM, beclin1 and Atg5) and lysosomal-function-related markers (cathepsin D, mTOR, p-mTOR P70S6K, p-p70s6k and TFEB) were analyzed with Western blot analyses. Results CGA treatment significantly improved spatial memory, relieved neuron damage, and inhibited autophagy in APP/PS1 mice (P<0.05). Moreover, CGA notably suppressed autophagosome production and enhanced autophagy flux in SH-SY5Y cells induced by Aβ25-35 (P<0.05). Further analysis showed that CGA markedly promoted lysosomal activity, and this was accompanied by upregulated cathepsin D protein expression, which was induced by the mTOR/TFEB signaling pathway in APP/PS1 mice and Aβ25-35-exposed SH-SY5Y cells (P<0.05). Conclusion CGA treatment restored autophagic flux in the brain and alleviated cognitive impairments in APP/PS1 mice via enhanced activation of the mTOR/TFEB signaling pathway.

Abstract
Purpose: To understand the challenges in delivering comprehensive care for patients recovering from stroke in Guangdong Province, China.Methods: A cross-sectional qualitative study was conducted in two tertiary hospitals with different socio-economic characteristics in Guangdong Province, Southern China. Interviews were conducted with 16 stroke care providers including doctors, nurses, rehabilitation therapists and care workers. The interviews were audiotaped, transcribed and translated from Mandarin to English. Thematic analysis was used to draw out descriptive and analytical themes relating to care providers' experiences of existing routine stroke care services and the perceptions of challenges in delivering comprehensive stroke care.Results: The interviews with stroke care providers highlighted three key factors that hinder the capacity of the two hospitals to deliver comprehensive stroke care. First, expertise and knowledge regarding stroke and stroke care are lacking among both providers and patients; second, stroke care systems are not fully integrated, with inadequate coordination of the stroke team and inconsistency in care following discharge of stroke patients; third, stroke patients have insufficient social support.Conclusions: While comprehensive stroke care has become a priority in China, our study highlights some important gaps in the current provision of stroke care.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONComprehensive integrated stroke care is essential to maximize the effectiveness of stroke services and in China it needs to be further improved.Multidisciplinary stroke care systems should strengthen collaborations across all relevant disciplines and should include a clear role for registered nurses.Follow-up care after discharge needs more engagement with family caregivers.

Abstract
Abstract Bone age assessment has always been one of the key issues and difficulties in forensic science. With the gradual development of machine learning in many industries, it has been widely introduced to imageology, genomics, oncology, pathology, surgery and other medical research fields in recent years. The reason why the above research fields can be closely combined with machine learning, is because the research subjects of the above branches of medicine belong to the computer vision category. Machine learning provides unique advantages for computer vision research and has made breakthroughs in medical image recognition. Based on the advantages of machine learning in image recognition, it was combined with bone age assessment research, in order to construct a recognition model suitable for forensic skeletal images. This paper reviews the research progress in bone age assessment made by scholars at home and abroad using machine learning technology in recent years.

Abstract
Tumor progression, including metastasis, is significantly influenced by factors in the tumor microenvironment (TME) such as mechanical force, shear stress, chemotaxis, and hypoxia. At present, most cancer studies investigate tumor metastasis by conventional cell culture methods and animal models, which are limited in data interpretation. Although patient tissue analysis, such as human patient-derived xenografts (PDX), can provide important clinical relevant information, they may not be feasible for functional studies as they are costly and time-consuming. Thus, in vitro three-dimensional (3D) models are rapidly being developed that mimic TME and allow functional investigations of metastatic mechanisms and drug responses. One of those new 3D models is tumor-on-a-chip technology that provides a powerful in vitro platform for cancer research, with the ability to mimic the complex physiological architecture and precise spatiotemporal control. Tumor-on-a-chip technology can provide integrated features including 3D scaffolding, multicellular culture, and a vasculature system to simulate dynamic flow in vivo. Here, we review a select set of recent achievements in tumor-on-a-chip approaches and present potential directions for tumor-on-a-chip systems in the future for areas including mechanical and chemical mimetic systems. We also discuss challenges and perspectives in both biological factors and engineering methods for tumor-on-a-chip progress. These approaches will allow in the future for the tumor-on-a-chip systems to test therapeutic approaches for individuals through using their cancerous cells gathered through approaches like biopsies, which then will contribute toward personalized medicine treatments for improving their outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stroke outpatients have a high risk of falling. However, fall prevention measures in the community are insufficient to effectively reduce the fall rate among outpatients with stroke. We aimed to determine the correlation between fall prevention knowledge and behavior among outpatients with stroke and provide new strategies for community fall prevention. METHODS We recruited 124 patients with stroke who were followed up in the outpatient department of a tertiary hospital in Zhuhai, China. Patients were assessed using a general information questionnaire, a fall prevention knowledge questionnaire for patients with stroke, and the Stroke Fall Prevention Behavior Scale. IBM SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS The median fall prevention knowledge was 82.76 (68.97, 93.10) points, out of 100. The mean (SD) score for fall prevention behavior was 2.90 (0.52; range, 1-4) points. Fall prevention knowledge scores were positively related to those fall prevention behavior (Spearman r = 0.454, P < .01). CONCLUSION Levels of fall prevention knowledge among outpatients with stroke were adequate, and this population had medium to high levels of fall prevention behavior. Better knowledge was accompanied with better prevention of falls. However, whether enriching the knowledge could lead to improvement of fall prevention is still undetermined.

Abstract
Abstract Postmortem changes on corpses appear immediately after death, and can transform the original structure characteristics of the corpse to different degrees as well as show specific changes on computed tomography (CT) images, sometimes with false positives and false negatives, influencing the identification of injuries or diseases. This paper systematically summarizes the postmortem changes of computed tomography imaging characteristics on corpses, to further expand the application of virtopsy in the practices of forensic pathology identification, and provide reference for the identification of injuries, diseases and changes after normal death.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Recent preclinical research has suggested that combined use of radiofrequency-ablation and balloon-dilation (CURB) had the potential to create a stable inter-atrial communication. However, the related clinical data is still absent.
Purpose
This study describes the first-in-man use of CURB in the patients with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).
Methods
Under the guidance of fluoroscopy and intra-cardiac echocardiography, CURB was attempted in 3 patients with severe PAH (age: 35.0±12.1 years, one idiopathic PAH and two PAH related to repaired congenital heart disease). With the aid of 3D location system, fossae ovalis was ablated with radiofrequency. Then the graded balloon-dilation was performed after transseptal puncture, and radiofrequency-ablation was repeated around the rim of fenestration created with balloon-dilation. The exercise capacity and fenestration-size were followed up.
Results
CURB was performed successfully in all 3 patients, and pulmonary vascular resistance was 30.3±10.9 Wood units. The fenestration size was 5.0±1.0 mm (range: 4–6 mm), and systemic arterial oxygen saturation decreased by 4.7±0.6% (range: 4–5%). World Health Organization functional class increased by 1.6±0.5 (P<0.001) and cardiac index increased by 0.58±0.34 L/min/m2 (P<0.001). In addition, exercise capacity improved significantly (+63.7 meters, P<0.001). Follow-up (6.0±1.0 months; range: 5–7 months) showed that all fenestrations were stable (P=0.808), and no complication occurred.
Figure 1. The combined use of radiofrequency-ablation and balloon-dilation (CURB) was performed in the patient with severe PAH. Left figures showed the procedure of CURB. Middle figures showed the created fenestration with MSCT, and the morphology and size of fenestration was provided in the right-inferior panel. In addition, the sizes of right atrium and ventricle were alleviated with increase of left atrium. Right figures indicated that the fenestration-size was stable during follow-up (one week, one month and six months, respectively).
Conclusions
In patients with severe PAH, CURB is feasible and effective to create a stable inter-atrial communication. Further research was required to evaluate the long-term result of this novel approach.

Abstract
Ten indigenous chicken breeds were originally distributed in Jiangxi Province, China, and they define a critical component of Chinese chicken genetic resources. We have investigated the population genetics of seven Jiangxi chicken breeds using 600K chicken BeadChip SNP data. To provide a genome-wide perspective for the population structure of all 10 Jiangxi chicken breeds, we herein genotyped 78 additional individuals from the seven breeds and 63 chickens from three uninvestigated breeds-Yugan Black (YG), Nancheng Black (NC) and Wanzai Yellow using 55K chicken SNP arrays. We then explored merged data of 17 101 SNPs from 235 individuals to infer the population structure of the 10 breeds. We showed that NC and YG are two regional populations of the same breed, as individuals from the two populations clustered together to form a branch separate from the other breeds in the neighbor-joining tree, they always grouped together in multidimensional principal component analyses and they displayed an identical pattern of ancestral lineage composition. Hence, NC and YG should be considered a single breed in the state-supported conservation scheme. Moreover, we conducted a genome scan for signatures of selection for black plumage. bayescan and hapflk analyses of two contrasting groups (three black-feathered breeds vs. six non-black-feathered breeds) consistently detected 25 putative regions under selection. Nine pigmentation- associated genes (DCT, SLC24A5, SLC30A4, MYO5A, CYP19A1, NADK2, SLC45A2, GNAQ and DCP2) reside within these regions, and these genes are interesting candidates for black plumage and provide a starting point for further identification of causative mutations for black feathers in chicken.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To use virtual anatomy technique in the analysis of post-mortem characteristic changes of CT images in the experimental drowning rabbit model and the related parameters in 3D virtual model, so as to explore its application value in the diagnosis of drowning in forensic pathology. METHODS A model of drowning rabbits was established, with animal models of hemorrhagic shock and mechanical asphyxia as the controls. CT scan was performed on the experimental animals, and the differences in imaging features between the groups were compared by morphological reading of the tomographic images. CT data were imported into Mimics 14.0 software for 3D modeling. The CT values and lung volumes were calculated by the software, and the differences on CT values and lung volumes brought by different causes of death were analyzed. RESULTS The CT images of lungs in the drowning group showed characteristic ground-glass opacity (diffuse and uniform density increase). There were no obvious abnormalities in hemorrhagic shock group, and only a few similar changes were found in the mechanical asphyxia group. Compared with the controls, the CT values and the lung volumes in the drowning group were significantly increased P<0.05. CONCLUSIONS Based on post-mortem lung imaging, the combination of CT value and lung volume changes can effectively reflect the virtual anatomical features in drowning, and provide a diagnostic basis for the forensic identification of drowning.

Abstract
Glycopeptidome profiling provides large-scale information about the glycosylation level of endogenous peptides, reflecting the dynamic processes of disease occurrences and developments. However, endogenous glycopeptides are usually submerged in complex fluids containing a wide variety of interference molecules, such as high concentration proteins, nonglycopeptides, and salts, which confounds attempts to identify glycopeptidome. Here, a dual-hydrophilic metal-organic framework is developed to selectively capture endogenous glycopeptides in complex biological fluid. The hydrophilic matrix material provides specific selectivity toward glycopeptides, while the deliberate surface regulation using hydrophilic species enhances its interaction with glycopeptides. This hydrophilic probe presents an extremely high performance in anti-interfering enrichment of glycopeptides from mimic complex samples, even when the molar ratio of immunoglobulin G versus bovine serum albumin was up to about 1:5000. More excitingly, in the practical application of glycopeptidome analysis, a total of 380 endogenous N-glycopeptides with 180 unique N-glycopeptide sites were identified from human plasma. This strategy is expected to broaden the application of dual-hydrophilic MOF-based materials, especially in dealing with the challenges of extremely complex biological samples.

Abstract
This study assessed the safety and efficacy of a commercial low-citrate concentration-based pre-filter replacement fluid during continuous veno-venous haemofiltration (CVVH) in patients with frequent filter clotting and high risk of bleeding. We used a commercial low-citrate fluid as pre-dilution replacement fluid during CVVH (citrate: 11 mmol/l (33 meq/l), sodium: 140 mmol/l, chloride: 108 mmol/l and potassium: 1 mmol/l). A calcium and magnesium infusion was delivered separately by central line for the maintenance of serum ionized calcium (Cai) and total magnesium (Mg). In this prospective observational study, 30 patients, 124 filters and 1,515 treatment-hours were observed. Median filter life of citrate CVVH was 9.5 hours. Filter life in the 48 hours prior to citrate CVVH was also observed. In the patients on prior non-anticoagulant CVVH (n=14) filter life increased significantly with citrate (9.5 hours vs 5 hours; P<0.0001). In patients on prior heparin CVVH (n=15), filter life was similar with citrate (10 hours vs 8 hours; P=0.68). However, in patients with prior early/frequent filter clotting despite heparin (n=11) filter life increased significantly (10 hours vs 7 hours; P=0.038). Of 411 serum Cai measurements, none showed a Cai<0.85 mmol/l and, of 84 observations, none showed a serum Mg<0.6mmol/l. One patient with sepsis and shock needed to cease citrate CVVH because of progressive ionized hypocalcaemia and increasing anion gap. No other adverse effects were observed. In selected patients, CVVH with a commercial low-citrate concentration solution as pre-filter replacement fluid and a simultaneous calcium and magnesium infusion protocol appears generally safe. Filter life was acceptable and superior to that achieved with previous treatment.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to compare the effects on regional blood flow and regional oxygen delivery of 4% succinylated gelatin solution (Gelofusine®, B. Braun) with those of normal saline. This was a randomised, controlled, crossover large animal study, which took place at the animal laboratory of university physiology institute. The subjects were seven merino cross-ewes. We implanted flow probes around the aorta, coronary, renal and mesenteric arteries. We randomised animals to observation (control), normal saline (one litre over 15 minutes) or Gelofusine* (one litre over 15 minutes). We measured central haemodynamics, organ blood flows, arterial blood gases and haemoglobin every 30 minutes for 210 minutes. Compared to control, both Gelofusine* and normal saline significantly and similarly increased mean arterial pressure, stroke volume, cardiac output and central venous pressure in the first hour (P <0.05). Such changes, however, were transient except for the increase in cardiac output seen with Gelofusine®. Normal saline significantly increased mesenteric blood flow in the first hour (P <0.05), while Gelofusine* caused a specific, sustained and progressive increase in renal blood flow and conductance (P <0.05). Both fluids increased urine output and creatinine clearance (P <0.05), but, due to haemodilution, both decreased renal oxygen delivery in the first hour (P <0.05). Normal saline and Gelofusine® have transient, volume expansion-related systemic haemodynamic effects, which are greater for Gelofusine®. Saline had a more pronounced early effect on mesenteric blood flow, while Gelofusine* had a sustained and progressive greater effect on renal blood flow. The transient increase in urine output and creatinine clearance seen with both fluids occurred while renal oxygen delivery decreased.

Abstract
BACKGROUND RAW264.7 cells are induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) as a rheumatoid arthritis (RA) model. The present study investigated the effect of cimifugin on the proliferation, migration, chemotaxis, and release of inflammation-related factors and inflammation-related signaling pathways of LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells. MATERIAL AND METHODS MTS assay was used to determine the proliferation of RAW264.7 cells. Transwell assay was employed to examine the migration and chemotaxis of the cells. ELISA was performed to measure the contents of chemotactic factors and inflammatory factors in cell culture supernatants. Western blotting was carried out to detect the expression of factors related with MAPKs and NF-κB signaling pathways. RESULTS Cimifugin (0-100 mg/L) had no cytotoxicity for RAW264.7 cells. LPS stimulation induced morphological differentiation of RAW264.7 cells, but intervention by cimifugin inhibited the activation effect by LPS by about 50%. Cimifugin (100 mg/L) decreased the migration and chemotaxis of RAW264.7 cells to 1/3 of that in control cells by decreasing the release of migration- and chemotaxis-associated factors by at least 30%. Cimifugin (100 mg/L) suppressed the release of inflammatory factors from RAW264.7 cells to less than 60% of that in the LPS group. In addition, cimifugin (100 mg/L) inhibited the activities of MAPKs and NF-κB signaling pathways. CONCLUSIONS The present study demonstrates that cimifugin reduces the migration and chemotaxis of RAW264.7 cells and inhibits the release of inflammatory factors and activation of related signaling pathways induced by LPS. Cimifugin may have potential pharmacological effects against RA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Isochoric freezing systems enable ice-free preservation of biological matter at subfreezing temperatures under the increased hydrostatic pressure. OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of pressure and exposure period on rat hearts preserved in an isochoric chamber. MATERIALS AND METHODS Rat hearts were preserved in the UW solution in isochoric chambers at temperatures from -2°C to -8°C and pressure from the atmospheric level to 78 MPa for up to eight hours, with and without the addition of glycerol. Hearts were evaluated via Langendorff perfusion and HE histology. RESULTS Hearts were compromised quickly as pressure increased, suggesting an acute time-pressure sensitivity. With the addition of 1 M glycerol, which reduces the pressure experienced at a given temperature, the survival time at -4°C was doubled. CONCLUSION The enhanced hydrostatic pressure encountered during isochoric preservation yields time-dependent negative effects on the heart, which can potentially be alleviated by the addition of a cryoprotectant.
