Abstract
Aerobic composting is a common way for the disposal of feces produced in animal husbandry, and can reduce the release of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) from feces into the environment. In this study, we collected samples from two distinct treatments of swine manure compost with and without ceftiofur (CEF), and identified the ARGs, mobile genetic elements (MGEs), and bacterial community by metagenomic sequencing. The impacts of CEF on the bacterial community composition and fate of ARGs and MGEs were investigated. With increasing composting temperature and pH, the concentration of CEF in the manure decreased rapidly, with a degradation half-life of 1.12 d and a 100% removal rate after 10 d of aerobic composting. Metagenomics demonstrated that CEF in the manure might inhibit the growth of Firmicutes and Proteobacteria, thereby reducing some ARGs and MGEs hosted by these two bacteria, which was further confirmed by the variations of ARGs and MGEs. A further redundancy analysis suggested that pH and temperature are key environmental factors affecting ARG removal during composting, and intI1 and bacterial communities also have significant influence on ARG abundance. These results are of great significance for promoting the removal of some ARGs from animal manure by controlling some key environmental factors and the type of antibiotics used in animals.

Abstract
Quorum sensing potentially helps microorganisms adapt to antibiotic stress encountered in the environment. This experiment investigated the effect of acyl homoserine endolipid-like signaling molecules on microbial antibiotic resistance gene structures in aqueous sediments under florfenicol stress. Additional acyl homoserine endolipid-like signaling molecules (AHLs) alter the structure of multidrug resistance genes in florfenicol-stressed sediments, particularly the multidrug resistance efflux pump gene family. Prophages and integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs) determined the resistance genes structure, and pathways related to mobile genetic elements (MGEs) transfer may play an essential role in this process. The practical application of AHLs to regulate quorum sensing systems may alter bacterial stress responses to environmental florfenicol residues, thereby reducing the development of antibiotic resistance in the environment.

Abstract
Bacterial resistance is an emerging global public health problem, posing a significant threat to animal and human health. Chemical pollutants present in the environment exert selective pressure on bacteria, which acquire resistance through co-resistance, cross-resistance, co-regulation, and biofilm resistance. Resistance genes are horizontally transmitted in the environment through four mechanisms including conjugation transfer, bacterial transformation, bacteriophage transduction, and membrane vesicle transport, and even enter human bodies through the food chain, endangering human health. Although the co-selection effects of bacterial resistance to chemical pollutants has attracted widespread attention, the co-screening mechanism and co-transmission mechanisms remain unclear. Therefore, this article summarises the current research status of the co-selection effects and mechanism of environmental pollutants resistance, emphasising the necessity of studying the co-selection mechanism of bacteria against major chemical pollutants, and lays a solid theoretical foundation for conducting risk assessment of bacterial resistance.

Abstract
One Health closely integrates healthy farming, human medicine, and environmental ecology. Due to the ecotoxicity and risk of transmission of drug resistance, veterinary medicines (VMs) are regarded as emerging environmental pollutants. To reduce or mitigate the environmental risk of VMs, developing friendly, safe, and effective removal technologies is an important means of environmental remediation for VMs. Many previous studies have proved that biodegradation has significant advantages in removing VMs, and biodegradation based on enzyme catalysis presents higher operability and specificity. This review focused on biodegradation strategies of environmental pollutants and reviewed the enzymatic degradation of VMs including antimicrobial drugs, insecticides, and disinfectants. We reviewed the sources and catalytic mechanisms of peroxidase, laccase, and organophosphorus hydrolases, and summarized the latest research status of immobilization methods and bioengineering techniques in improving the performance of degrading enzymes. The mechanism of enzymatic degradation for VMs was elucidated in the current research. Suggestions and prospects for researching and developing enzymatic degradation of VMs were also put forward. This review will offer new ideas for the biodegradation of VMs and have a guide significance for the risk mitigation and detoxification of VMs in the environment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Nursing home-acquired pneumonia (NHAP) is one of the most frequent infections in nursing homes, with a difficult diagnosis, poor prognosis, and high mortality. The present study was performed to develop and validate a nomogram to predict the risk of NHAP in nursing homes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Based on a literature review and clinician's recommendations, we identified and collected the possible factors affecting the occurrence of NHAP. Based on the above factors, a retrospective observational study of 620 nursing home residents' medical records was performed from September 2016 to September 2021. Significant risk factors for NHAP were identified by univariate and multivariate analysis successively. A nomogram was constructed based on the binary logistic regression models to visualize the prediction model. The model's performance was determined by the concordance index (C-index), and the prediction accuracy was evaluated using a calibration curve. Clinical effectiveness was evaluated by decision curve analysis (DCA). RESULTS Finally, 12 independent risk factors were identified and assembled into the nomogram. The nomogram had a C-index of 0.958 (95% confidence interval: 0.943-0.972). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC-ROC) value of the nomogram was 0.958 (p<0.05), and the calibration plot showed good goodness of fit. The decision curve analysis and clinical impact curve showed good clinical usefulness of the nomogram. CONCLUSIONS A nomogram for the early prediction of NHAP, which is easy for nurses to perform in nursing homes, was successfully constructed and validated, and it had a good predictive performance.

Abstract
Livestock manure is an important source of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) spreading to the environment, posing a potential threat to human health. Here, we investigated the dissipation of florfenicol (FF) and thiamphenicol (TAP), and their effects on the bacterial community, mobile genetic elements (MGEs), and ARGs during composting. The results indicated that FF and TAP dissipated rapidly in compost, with half-life values of 5.1 and 1.6 d, respectively. However, FF could not be completely removed during composting. The FF and TAP residues in manure could reduce the elimination of ARGs and MGEs during composting, and had a negative effect on the physicochemical factors of the compost. Significant correlations were found between floR and intI1, indicating that floR in manure may more easily diffuse to the soil environment. Meanwhile, the presence of FF in manure could increase the abundance of floR. Network analysis showed that Proteobacteria and Firmicutes were the dominant bacterial communities and important potential pathogen hosts carrying ARGs. The predicted environmental concentration of FF in the soil was over 100 μg kg-1, which indicates that FF poses a potential risk to the natural environment, and we verified this result through field experiments. The results showed that FF dissipated in the soil after it migrated from manure to soil. In contrast, TAP in manure posed lower environmental risk. This study highlights that changed in composting conditions may control the rate of removal of ARGs. Further studies are needed to investigate the best environmental conditions to achieve a faster degradation of FF and a more comprehensive elimination of ARGs during composting.

Abstract
Veterinary drugs heavily used in livestock are passed into the environment through different ways, resulting in risks to terrestrial environments and humans. The migration of toltrazuril (TOL), an important anticoccidial drug used intensively in livestock, and its main metabolites between the chicken manure compost, soil and vegetables was investigated, and then the impacts of TOL on the soil bacterial community and ARGs, soil enzyme activities and phytotoxicity were detected. In the process of aerobic composting for 80 days, except for toltrazuril sulfoxide (the degradation half-life was 59.74 d), TOL and ponazuril (PON) were not significantly degraded. However, TOL and its metabolites were significantly degraded in fertilized soil, and the degradation half-life was 28.17-346.50 d. Among the three drugs, only PON could migrate from soil to vegetables, and the residual concentrations of PON in lettuce and radish were 2.64-70.02 μg kg-1 and 0-2.80 μg kg-1, respectively. Moreover, TOL and its main metabolisms had no significant effect on the bacterial community structure and the abundance of antibiotic resistance genes during composting, but affected the microbial activity in the soil. The presence of TOL and its main metabolites reduced soil urease activity, increased catalase activity, and decreased alkaline phosphatase activity at the beginning and then increased slightly. They had negative effects on plant growth. Compared with the control group, the inhibition rates of TOL and its metabolites on lettuce and radish seed germination were 8.33% and 26.74% respectively, and the inhibition rates of root elongation length were 25.88% and 34.45% respectively. These results showed that TOL and its main metabolites were ineffectively removed by aerobic composting, and could be migrated from composting to soil and vegetables, which had adverse effects on soil enzyme activity and plant growth. Therefore, its environmental ecological risk and human health risk needs to be further evaluated.

Abstract
Aerobic composting is an economical and effective technology that is widely used to treat animal manure. To study the fate of doxycycline (DOX), the microbial community, and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) during composting, aerobic composting of broiler manure and swine manure was carried out under natural environmental conditions. Aerobic composting effectively removed DOX (with a removal rate > 97%) and most ARGs from animal manure. The microbial diversity and the numbers of ARGs were higher in composted swine manure compared with composted broiler manure. The microbial community structure changed during composting, and the dominant phyla of broiler manure and swine manure changed from Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria, respectively. DOX changed the structure and relative abundance of the microbial community during composting, and the relative abundance of multidrug resistance genes and mobile genetic elements (MGEs) increased, which might lead to the risk of transmission of resistance in the environment. The C / N ratio, DOX concentration, Firmicutes, intl1, and intl2 were the key factors driving the change in ARGs during composting. These results help to reveal the effects of DOX on microbial communities, ARGs, and MGEs during composting and clarify the possible ways to reduce the risk of resistance gene transmission in the environment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Poststroke dysphagia (PSD) is one of the most significant problems after stroke. The prognosis of dysphagia is closely related to the outcomes of stroke. This meta-analysis aimed at identifying and evaluating critical predictors of prognosis for PSD. MATERIALS AND METHODS Electronic databases were searched for relevant case-control and cohort studies in which the prognostic factors of PSD were reported. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Review Manager 5.3 was used to calculate odds ratios (OR) and their 95% confidence intervals (CI) of the included factors and to perform heterogeneity and sensitivity analyses. Stata 15.1 was used to evaluate publication bias. RESULTS Eighteen of 3132 total studies were finally included in this meta-analysis. Ten predictors of PSD were identified, including 2 protective factors and 8 risk factors. Early intervention (OR=0.75, 95% CI=0.61-0.93) and an MRS (modified Rankin scale) score of 0 before onset (OR=0.58, 95% CI=0.47-0.71) were related to a better prognosis of PSD. The risk factors ranked by pooled OR values were aspiration (OR=7.64, 95% CI=5.94-9.82), brainstem injury (OR=4.82, 95% CI=3.01-7.72), severity of stroke (OR= 3.06, 95% CI=1.69-5.53), bihemispheric injury (OR=3.0, 95% CI=1.67-5.40), older age (OR=1.75, 95% CI=1.50-2.04), malnutrition (OR=1.36, 95% CI=1.22-1.53), severe dysphagia on admission (OR=1.16, 95% CI=1.03-1.29), and reduced level of consciousness (OR=1.03, 95% CI=1.00-1.07). CONCLUSIONS Prognostic factors for a good outcome of PSD included early intervention and an MRS score of 0 before onset. Aspiration, brainstem injury, severe stroke and bihemispheric injury are the four most significant predictors of poor prognosis in PSD. Identifying these prognostic factors should help clinicians to better detect patients at risk and provide effective interventions for PSD.

Abstract
The widespread usage of veterinary antibiotics results in antibiotic contamination and increases environmental risks. This study was evaluated the single and ternary competitive adsorption-desorption and degradation of three amphenicol antibiotics (AMs): chloramphenicol (CAP), thiamphenicol (TAP), and florfenicol (FF) in three agricultural soils. The adsorption capacity of amphenicol antibiotics in the soil was weak, and the Kf value was in the range of 0.15-3.59 μg1-1/nL1/n kg-1. In the single adsorption-desorption experiment, the ranked order of adsorption capacity was TAP > FF > CAP. However, in the ternary competitive adsorption experiment, the order was changed to be CAP > FF > TAP. The degradation of AMs in soils was performed at various conditions. All AMs were vulnerable to microbial degradation in soils. A higher initial concentration would reduce the degradation rate and enhance the persistence of AMs in soil. The degradation of AMs was positively influenced by changes in soil moisture content and culture temperatures up to 30 °C and decreased at higher temperatures. An equation was used to predict the leachability of AMs in soils and assess their risk to the water environment. The weak adsorption capacity and poor persistence of FF indicated that it may have a strong effect on groundwater based on the equation. It is imperative to further assess the biological impacts of FF at environmentally relevant concentrations given its mobility and extensive use in the livestock industry.

Abstract
AIMS Hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (HSRT) to the cavity after surgical resection of brain metastases improves local control. Most reported cohorts include few patients with melanoma, a population known to have high rates of recurrence and neurological death. We aimed to assess outcomes in patients with melanoma brain metastases who received HSRT after surgery at two Australian institutions. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was carried out including patients treated between January 2012 and May 2020. HSRT was recommended for patients with melanoma brain metastases at high risk of local recurrence after surgery. Treatment was delivered using appropriately commissioned linear accelerators. Routine follow-up included surveillance magnetic resonance imaging brain every 3 months for at least 2 years. Primary outcomes were overall survival, local control, incidence of radiological radionecrosis and symptomatic radionecrosis. RESULTS There were 63 cavities identified in 57 patients. The most common HSRT dose prescriptions were 24 Gy in three fractions and 27.5 Gy in five fractions. The median follow-up was 32 months in survivors. Local control was 90% at 1 year, 83% at 2 years and 76% at 3 years. Subtotal brain metastases resection (hazard ratio 12.5; 95% confidence interval 1.4-111; P = 0.0238) was associated with more local recurrence. Overall survival was 64% at 1 year, 45% at 2 years and 40% at 3 years. There were 10 radiological radionecrosis events (16% of cavities) during the study period, with 5% at 1 year and 8% at 2 years after HSRT. The median time to onset of radiological radionecrosis was 21 months (range 6-56). Of these events, three became symptomatic (5%) during the study period at a median time to onset of 26 months (range 21-32). CONCLUSION Cavity HSRT is associated with high rates of local control in patients with melanoma brain metastases. Subtotal resection strongly predicts for local recurrence after HSRT. Symptomatic radionecrosis occurred in 5% of cavities but increased to 8% of longer-term survivors.

Abstract
Cephalosporins are one of the most widely used antibiotics. When cephalosporins are discharged into the environment, they not only induce the production of antibiotic resistant genes (ARGs) and antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARBs) but also cause toxic effects on animals and plants. Due to their complicated environmental behavior and lack of relevant data, the environmental behavior remains unclear. In this study, the adsorption-desorption and degradation characteristics of the third-generation cephalosporin drug ceftiofur (CEF) were investigated in three agricultural soils (sandy loam, loam and clay). According to the relevant parameters of the Freundlich adsorption isotherm (the Kf range was 57.63-122.44 μg1-1/n L1/n kg-1), CEF was adsorbed moderately in the soils and had the potential to migrate into groundwater. CEF exhibited low persistence in the soils and faster degradation than other antibiotics, such as tetracyclines and fluoroquinolones. The degradation half-lives (DT50) of CEF in soils ranged from 0.76 days to 4.31 days. Adding feces, increasing the water content, providing light and increasing the temperature significantly accelerated the degradation of CEF in soils. The DT50 values of CEF in soils were significantly prolonged when the soils were sterilized, indicating that both physical degradation and biodegradation played important roles in the degradation of CEF in soils. The DT50 values of CEF in soils were significantly prolonged at high concentrations, indicating that the degradability of CEF in soils was affected by the initial concentration. No significant differences were observed in the DT50 values for the different soil types (p > 0.05). This study provides useful information about the environmental behavior of CEF and improves the environmental risk assessment of CEF.

Abstract
Veterinary antibiotics are widely used in animal agriculture. Owing to its good absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, strong tissue permeability, and long biological half-life, doxycycline (DOX) is widely used to treat bacterial infections; however, this use can pose an environmental risk. The adsorption/desorption and degradation of DOX in three agricultural soils were investigated. DOX rapidly adsorbed to the soils, with an adsorption equilibrium time of 12 h for the three soils. The Freundlich equation was used to fit the adsorption and desorption of DOX in soils. A high Freundlich affinity coefficient (KF) was obtained from Freundlich isotherms, indicating strong sorption of DOX to agricultural soils and weak mobility to aquatic environment. Soil organic matter, the clay ratio and the cation exchange capacity were significantly positively correlated with KF (P < 0.05). The half-life (DT50) of DOX degradation in the soils ranged from 2.51 to 25.52 d. Soil microorganisms, soil moisture, temperature, the initial concentration, illumination and soil texture all significantly affected the degradation of DOX in soil (P < 0.05). When 8% (w/w) manure was added, DOX degradation was significantly accelerated (P < 0.05). Biotic and abiotic factors affected the degradation of DOX in soils. These results indicated that soil properties and environmental conditions greatly affected the fate and transport of DOX into agricultural soils.

Abstract
Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models have become important tools for the development of novel human drugs. Food-producing animals and pets comprise an important part of human life, and the development of veterinary drugs (VDs) has greatly impacted human health. Owing to increased affordability of and demand for drug development, VD manufacturing companies should have more PBPK models required to reduce drug production costs. So far, little attention has been paid on applying PBPK models for the development of VDs. This review begins with the development processes of VDs; then summarizes case studies of PBPK models in human or VD development; and analyzes the application, potential, and advantages of PBPK in VD development, including candidate screening, formulation optimization, food effects, target-species safety, and dosing optimization. Then, the challenges of applying the PBPK model to VD development are discussed. Finally, future opportunities of PBPK models in designing dosing regimens for intracellular pathogenic infections and for efficient oral absorption of VDs are further forecasted. This review will be relevant to readers who are interested in using a PBPK model to develop new VDs.

Abstract
Zoonotic intestinal pathogens threaten human health and cause huge economic losses in farming. Enrofloxacin (ENR) shows high antibacterial activity against common intestinal bacteria. However, its poor palatability and low aqueous solubility limit the clinical application of ENR. To obtain an ENR oral preparation with good palatability and high solubility, a granule containing an amorphous ENR solid dispersion (ENR-SD) was prepared. Meanwhile, a PBPK model of ENR in pigs was built based on the physiological parameters of pigs and the chemical-specific parameters of ENR to simulate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of ENR-SD granules in the intestinal contents. According to the results of parameter sensitivity analysis (PSA) and the predicted PK parameters at different doses of the model, formulation strategies and potential dose regimens against common intestinal infections were provided. The DSC and XRD results showed that no specific interactions existed between the excipients and ENR during the compatibility tests, and ENR presented as an amorphous form in ENR-SD. Based on the similar PK performance of ENR-SD granules and the commercial ENR soluble powder suggesting continued enhancement of the solubility of ENR, a higher drug concentration in intestinal contents could not be obtained. Therefore, a 1:5 ratio of ENR and stearic acid possessing a saturated aqueous solubility of 1190 ± 7.71 µg/mL was selected. The predictive AUC24h/MIC90 ratios against Campylobacter jejuni, Salmonella, and Escherichia coli were 133, 266 and 8520 (>100), respectively, suggesting that satisfactory efficacy against common intestinal infections would be achieved at a dose of 10 mg/kg b.w. once daily. The PSA results indicated that the intestinal absorption rate constant (Ka) was negatively correlated with the Cmax of ENR in the intestine, suggesting that we could obtain higher intestinal Cmax using P-gp inducers to reduce Ka, thus obtaining a higher Cmax. Our studies suggested that the PBPK model is an excellent tool for formulation and dose design.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Rho-associated kinases (ROCKs) are recognized to be involved in many pathophysiological processes caused by hyperglycemia. We performed experiments to evaluate the effects of fasudil, the Rho/ROCK inhibitor, on preventing hepatic fibrosis in type 1 diabetic rats and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into five groups: normal control (NC), untreated diabetic (DM), low-dose fasudil-treated (L-Fas), high-dose fasudil-treated (H-Fas) and captopril-treated (Cap) groups. Streptozotocin was injected to establish the diabetes model. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and inflammatory factors such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), were analyzed. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) and Masson's trichrome staining were used for histological observations. The expression of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β1), metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9)/tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1), collagen type Iα (Coll α1), nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and ROCK-1 were measured to investigate the mechanisms involved in fibrosis. RESULTS The DM group exhibited hepatic fibrosis with remarkable liver damage and inflammation reaction by the activation of the NF-κB pathway. Treatment with fasudil or captopril suppressed not only the inflammation reaction but also the accumulation of the extracellular matrix due to the downregulation of TGF-β1 and MMP-9/TIMP-1, which induces the amelioration of the liver fibrosis with diabetes. Furthermore, fasudil significantly attenuated the activation of ROCK-1 and NF-κB in the livers of diabetic rats. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that fasudil exert anti-inflammation actions and markedly decrease the accumulation of extracellular matrix. Fasudil is a good candidate agent for treating hepatic fibrosis in diabetes.

Abstract
Summary
Objectives:
In this paper, we present a unified electrodynamic heart model that permits simulations of the body surface potentials generated by the heart in motion. The inclusion of motion in the heart model significantly improves the accuracy of the simulated body surface potentials and therefore also the 12-lead ECG.
Methods:
The key step is to construct an electromechanical heart model. The cardiac excitation propagation is simulated by an electrical heart model, and the resulting cardiac active forces are used to calculate the ventricular wall motion based on a mechanical model. The source-field point relative position changes during heart systole and diastole. These can be obtained, and then used to calculate body surface ECG based on the electrical heart-torso model.
Results:
An electromechanical biventricular heart model is constructed and a standard 12-lead ECG is simulated. Compared with a simulated ECG based on the static electrical heart model, the simulated ECG based on the dynamic heart model is more accordant with a clinically recorded ECG, especially for the ST segment and T wave of a V1-V6 lead ECG. For slight-degree myocardial ischemia ECG simulation, the ST segment and T wave changes can be observed from the simulated ECG based on a dynamic heart model, while the ST segment and T wave of simulated ECG based on a static heart model is almost unchanged when compared with a normal ECG.
Conclusions:
This study confirms the importance of the mechanical factor in the ECG simulation. The dynamic heart model could provide more accurate ECG simulation, especially for myocardial ischemia or infarction simulation, since the main ECG changes occur at the ST segment and T wave, which correspond with cardiac systole and diastole phases.

Abstract
Natural products have been used as potentially important sources of anti-inflammatory drugs. This study examined the effects of pinocembrin against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endotoxemia to ascertain whether pinocembrin could protect mice from ensuing death. Cytokine responses were also assessed in serum isolated from blood collected at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 24 h after LPS administration of the mice (with or without drug treatment). The results showed that there was a lower production of TNFα, IL-6, and IL-1β in the serum of LPS-challenged mice that had been pre-treated with pinocembrin. In addition, pre-treatment with pinocembrin improved host survival against the LPS-induced lethal endotoxemia. These results suggest that this new flavonoid could potentially be a novel candidate for preventing development/mitigation progression of septic shock.

Abstract
AIMS Natural products have been used as potentially important sources of novel antibacterials in combating pathogenic Staphylococcus aureus isolates, a major problem around the world. In this study, we aimed to investigate the antibacterial effects of pinocembrin (PNCB) against Staph. aureus pneumonia in a murine model and its influence on the production of Staph. aureus α-haemolysin (Hla). METHODS AND RESULTS The in vitro activities of PNCB on α-haemolysin production were determined using haemolysis, Western blot and real-time RT-PCR assays. The viability and cytotoxicity assays were performed to evaluate the influence of PNCB on α-toxin-mediated injury of human alveolar epithelial cells. Moreover, through histopathologic analysis, we further determined the in vivo effects of PNCB on Staph. aureus pneumonia in a mouse model. In vitro, PNCB at low concentrations exhibited inhibitory activity against α-haemolysin production and attenuated α-haemolysin-mediated cell injury. Furthermore, the in vivo findings demonstrated that PNCB protected mice from Staph. aureus pneumonia. CONCLUSIONS We have provided new evidence of the effects of PNCB, which suggest that PNCB attenuated α-haemolysin-mediated cell injury and protected mice from Staph. aureus pneumonia.

Abstract
Paeonol (2'-hydroxy-4'-methoxyacetophenone) is the main phenolic compound of the radix of Paeonia suffruticosa which has been used as traditional Chinese medicine. In this study, we primarily investigated the anti-inflammatory effects and the underlying mechanisms of paeonol in RAW macrophage cells; and based on these effects, we assessed the protective effects of paeonol on lipopolysaccharide-induced endotoxemia in mice. The in vitro study showed that paeonol regulated the production of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-10 via inactivation of IκBα, ERK1/2, JNK, and p38 MAPK. In mouse model of lipopolysaccharide-induced endotoxemia, pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines are significantly regulated, and thus the survival rates of lipolysaccharide-challenged mice are improved by paeonol (150, 200, or 250 mg/kg). Therefore, paeonol has a beneficial activity against lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation in RAW 264.7 cell and mouse models.

Abstract
7-O-Methylnaringenin, extracted from Rhododendron speciferum, belongs to the flavanone class of polyphenols. In the present study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of 7-O-methylnaringenin on cytokine production by lipopoly-saccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages in vitro. The results showed that pretreatment with 10, 20 or 40 μg/mL of 7-O-methylnaringenin could downregulate tumour necrosis factor (TNF-α), interleukin (IL-6) and interleukin (IL-1β) in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, we investigated the signal transduction mechanisms to determine how 7-O-methylnaringenin affects RAW 264.7 macrophages. The activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) and IκBα were measured by Western blotting. The data showed that 7-O-methylnaringenin could downregulate LPS-induced levels of phosphorylation of ERK1/2, JNK and IκBα. These observations indicated that 7-O-methylnaringenin modulated inflammatory cytokine responses by blocking NF-қB, ERK1/2 and JNK/MAPKs activation.

Abstract
Astragalin (AG), a flavonoid from many traditional herbs and medicinal plants, has been described to exhibit in vitro anti-inflammatory activity. The present study aimed to determine the protective effects and the underlying mechanisms of astragalin on lipopolysaccharide-induced endotoxemia and lung injury in mice. Mice were injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (dose range: 5-40 mg/kg). We observed mice on mortality for 7 days twice a day and recorded survival rates. In drug testing, we examined the therapeutic effects of astragalin (25, 50 or 75 mg/kg) on LPS- induced endotoxemia by dosing orally astragalin 1 hour before LPS challenge. Using an experimental model of LPS-induced acute lung injury (ALI), we examined the effect of astragalin in resolving lung injury. The investigations revealed that pretreatment with astragalin can improve survival during lethal endotoxemia and attenuate inflammatory responses in a murine model of lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury. The mechanisms by which Astragalin exerts its anti-inflammatory effect are correlated with inhibition of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1 (IL-1), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) production via inactivation of NF-κB.

Abstract
Salidroside is a major component isolated from the Rhodiola rosea. In the present study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of salidroside on cytokine production by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages in vitro, and the results showed that salidroside reduced tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) secretions. This inspired us to further study the effects of salidroside in vivo. Salidroside significantly attenuated TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 productions in serum from mice challenged with LPS, and consistent with the results in vitro. In the murine model of endotoxemia, mice were treated with salidroside prior to or after LPS challenge. The results showed that salidroside significantly increased mouse survival. Further studies revealed that salidroside could downregulate LPS-induced nuclear transcription factor-қB (NF-қB) DNA-binding activation and ERK/MAPKs signal transduction pathways production in RAW 264.7 macrophages. These observations indicated that salidroside modulated early cytokine responses by blocking NF-қB and ERK/MAPKs activation, and thus, increased mouse survival. These effects of salidroside may be of potential usefulness in the treatment of inflammation-mediated endotoxemia.

Abstract
Based on our previously developed electrical heart model, an electromechanical biventricular model, which couples the electrical property and mechanical property of the heart, was constructed and the right ventricular wall motion and deformation was simulated using this model. The model was developed on the basis of composite material theory and finite element method. The excitation propagation was simulated by electrical heart model, and the resultant active forces were used to study the ventricular wall motion during systole. The simulation results show that: (1) The right ventricular free wall moves towards the septum, and at the same time, the base and middle of free wall move towards the apex, which reduce the volume of right ventricle; (2) The minimum principle strain (E3) is largest at the apex, then at the middle of free wall, and its direction is in the approximate direction of epicardial muscle fibers. These results are in good accordance with solutions obtained from MR tagging images. It suggests that such electromechanical biventricular model can be used to assess the mechanical function of two ventricles.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In this paper, we present a unified electrodynamic heart model that permits simulations of the body surface potentials generated by the heart in motion. The inclusion of motion in the heart model significantly improves the accuracy of the simulated body surface potentials and therefore also the 12-lead ECG. METHODS The key step is to construct an electromechanical heart model. The cardiac excitation propagation is simulated by an electrical heart model, and the resulting cardiac active forces are used to calculate the ventricular wall motion based on a mechanical model. The source-field point relative position changes during heart systole and diastole. These can be obtained, and then used to calculate body surface ECG based on the electrical heart-torso model. RESULTS An electromechanical biventricular heart model is constructed and a standard 12-lead ECG is simulated. Compared with a simulated ECG based on the static electrical heart model, the simulated ECG based on the dynamic heart model is more accordant with a clinically recorded ECG, especially for the ST segment and T wave of a V1-V6 lead ECG. For slight-degree myocardial ischemia ECG simulation, the ST segment and T wave changes can be observed from the simulated ECG based on a dynamic heart model, while the ST segment and T wave of simulated ECG based on a static heart model is almost unchanged when compared with a normal ECG. CONCLUSIONS This study confirms the importance of the mechanical factor in the ECG simulation. The dynamic heart model could provide more accurate ECG simulation, especially for myocardial ischemia or infarction simulation, since the main ECG changes occur at the ST segment and T wave, which correspond with cardiac systole and diastole phases.

Abstract
Patients with cerebral palsy frequently develop coxarthrosis after acquired hip dislocation or dysplasia. Nineteen total hip arthroplasties (THA) were performed in 18 patients with cerebral palsy and end-stage hip degeneration. The average age at arthroplasty was 30 years (range, 16-52 years). All components were cemented, and four hips required bone graft augmentation of the deficient acetabulum. Spica casts were used in 16 of 18 patients to minimize the incidence of dislocation and trochanteric nonunion. The average follow-up time was ten years (range, three to 17 years). Seventeen of 18 patients (94%) had pain relief and improved function after arthroplasty. One stem loosened at three years, and one acetabular component loosened at 15 years. One stem and one acetabular component were revised for malposition. Survivorship analysis was 95% at ten years for loosening and 86% with removal for any reason. Total hip arthroplasty can provide long-term relief and improved function in cerebral palsy patients with severe coxarthrosis.
