Abstract
AIM To develop and validate models based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) radiomics for predicting the efficacy of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) in EGFR-mutant non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases. MATERIALS AND METHODS 117 EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients with brain metastases who received EGFR-TKI treatment were included in this study from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2021. Patients were randomly divided into training and validation cohorts in a ratio of 2:1. Radiomics features extracted from brain MRI were screened by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm. Logistic regression analysis and Cox proportional hazard regression analysis were used to screen clinical risk factors. Clinical (C), radiomics (R), and combined (C + R) nomograms were constructed in models predicting short-term efficacy and intracranial progression-free survival (iPFS), respectively. Calibration curves, Harrell's concordance index (C-index), and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate the performance of models. RESULTS Overall response rate (ORR) was 57.3% and median iPFS was 12.67 months. The C + R nomograms were more effective. In the short-term efficacy model, the C-indexes of C + R nomograms in training cohort and validation cohort were 0.860 (0.820-0.901, 95%CI) and 0.843 (0.783-0.904, 95%CI). In iPFS model, the C-indexes of C + R nomograms in training cohort and validation cohort were 0.837 (0.751-0.923, 95%CI) and 0.850 (0.763-0.937, 95%CI). CONCLUSION The C + R nomograms were more effective in predicting EGFR-TKI efficacy of EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients with brain metastases than single clinical or radiomics nomograms.

Abstract
AIMS Stem rot caused by Fusarium concentricum is a new disease of Paris polyphylla reported by our research group. The present study investigates the growth inhibitory and apoptotic effects of Bacillus velezensis FJAT-54560 lipopeptide against F. concentricum. METHODS AND RESULTS HPLC preparation and LC-MS analysis results show that the crude lipopeptides secreted by Bacillus velezensis FJAT-54560 isolated from Jasminum sambac consist of C14-17 iturin A, C14 fengycin B, C16 fengycin A/A2, C18 fengycin A, C20 fengycin B2, C21 fengycin A2, C22-23 fengycin A, C12-16 surfactin A, and C15 surfactin A derivatives. The mass ratios (g/g) of iturin, fengycin, and surfactin in lipopeptides are 2.40, 67.51, and 30.08%, respectively. Through inhibition zone and inhibition rate experiments, we found that crude lipopeptides and purified fengycin exhibit strong antifungal activity against F. concentricum, including accumulation of reactive oxygen species, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, DNA fragmentation, Ca2+ accumulation, chromatin condensation, and phosphatidylserine externalization. Transcriptomic analysis indicates that crude lipopeptide-induced apoptosis in F. concentricum cells may be mediated by apoptosis-inducing factors and apoptosis mediators and can serve as a metacaspase-independent model. CONCLUSION Lipopeptides from Bacillus velezensis FJAT-54560 can control the pathogenic fungus F. concentricum by inducing apoptosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the external validity of the Fetal Medicine Foundation (FMF) competing-risks model for the prediction of small-for-gestational age (SGA) at 11-14 weeks' gestation in an Asian population. METHODS This was a secondary analysis of a multicenter prospective cohort study in 10 120 women with a singleton pregnancy undergoing routine assessment at 11-14 weeks' gestation. We applied the FMF competing-risks model for the first-trimester prediction of SGA, combining maternal characteristics and medical history with measurements of mean arterial pressure (MAP), uterine artery pulsatility index (UtA-PI) and serum placental growth factor (PlGF) concentration. We calculated risks for different cut-offs of birth-weight percentile (< 10th , < 5th or < 3rd percentile) and gestational age at delivery (< 37 weeks (preterm SGA) or SGA at any gestational age). Predictive performance was examined in terms of discrimination and calibration. RESULTS The predictive performance of the competing-risks model for SGA was similar to that reported in the original FMF study. Specifically, the combination of maternal factors with MAP, UtA-PI and PlGF yielded the best performance for the prediction of preterm SGA with birth weight < 10th percentile (SGA < 10th ) and preterm SGA with birth weight < 5th percentile (SGA < 5th ), with areas under the receiver-operating-characteristics curve (AUCs) of 0.765 (95% CI, 0.720-0.809) and 0.789 (95% CI, 0.736-0.841), respectively. Combining maternal factors with MAP and PlGF yielded the best model for predicting preterm SGA with birth weight < 3rd percentile (SGA < 3rd ) (AUC, 0.797 (95% CI, 0.744-0.850)). After excluding cases with pre-eclampsia, the combination of maternal factors with MAP, UtA-PI and PlGF yielded the best performance for the prediction of preterm SGA < 10th and preterm SGA < 5th , with AUCs of 0.743 (95% CI, 0.691-0.795) and 0.762 (95% CI, 0.700-0.824), respectively. However, the best model for predicting preterm SGA < 3rd without pre-eclampsia was the combination of maternal factors and PlGF (AUC, 0.786 (95% CI, 0.723-0.849)). The FMF competing-risks model including maternal factors, MAP, UtA-PI and PlGF achieved detection rates of 42.2%, 47.3% and 48.1%, at a fixed false-positive rate of 10%, for the prediction of preterm SGA < 10th , preterm SGA < 5th and preterm SGA < 3rd , respectively. The calibration of the model was satisfactory. CONCLUSION The screening performance of the FMF first-trimester competing-risks model for SGA in a large, independent cohort of Asian women is comparable with that reported in the original FMF study in a mixed European population. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mortality rate of sepsis-associated liver injury (SALI) is relatively high, but there is currently no authoritative prognostic criterion for the outcome of SALI. Meanwhile, lactate-to-albumin ratio (LAR) has been confirmed to be associated with mortality rates in conditions such as sepsis, heart failure, and respiratory failure. However, there is a scarcity of research reporting on the association between LAR and SALI. This study aimed to elucidate the association between LAR and the 28-day mortality rate of SALI. METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, data were obtained from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (v2.2). Adult patients with SALI were admitted to the intensive care unit in this study. The LAR level at admission was included, and the primary aim was to assess the relationship between the LAR and 28-day all-cause mortality. RESULTS A total of 341 patients with SALI (SALI) were screened. They were divided into a survival group (241) and a non-survival group (100), and the 28-day mortality rate was 29.3%. Multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that for every 1-unit increase in LAR, the 28-day mortality risk for SALI patients increased by 21%, with an HR of 1.21 (95% CI 1.11 ~ 1.31, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS This study indicates that in patients with SALI, a higher LAR is associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality within 28 days of admission. This suggests that LAR may serve as an independent risk factor for adverse outcomes in SALI patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This meta-analysis aimed to investigate the effect of SGLT2 inhibitors on the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF) or at risk of HF across different body mass index (BMI). METHODS We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library for all randomized controlled trials comparing SGLT2 inhibitors with placebo in patients with HF or at risk of HF and extracted relevant data up to April 2023 for meta-analysis. RESULTS A total of 29,500 patients were enrolled in the selected five studies. The results showed that patients treated with SGLT2 inhibitors had lower HF hospitalization (HHF) or cardiovascular (CV) mortality compared to those taking placebo (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.73, p < 0.001). Patients taking SGLT2 inhibitors also had a lower all-cause mortality rate than those taking placebo (HR = 0.85, p = 0.017). In BMI subgroup analysis, the HHF rate in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group at BMI ≤24.9 kg/m2, 25.0-29.9 kg/m2, and ≥30.0 kg/m2. There was no significant difference in CV mortality between the two groups at BMI ≤24.9 kg/m2 (HR = 0.91, p = 0.331) and 25.0-29.9 kg/m2 (HR = 0.92, p = 0.307). However, when the BMI was ≥30.0 kg/m2, CV mortality with SGLT2 inhibitors was lower than in the control group (HR = 0.79, p = 0.002). When patients had a BMI ≤24.9 kg/m2 (HR = 0.85, p = 0.033) and 25.0-29.9 kg/m2 (HR = 0.83, p = 0.046), the all-cause mortality was lower in the experimental group than in the control group. However, there was no significant difference between the 2 groups in patients with a BMI ≥30.0 kg/m2 (HR = 0.87, p = 0.094). CONCLUSION SGLT2 inhibitors improve the prognosis in patients with HF or at risk of HF. This effect is affected by BMI.

Abstract
Bacterial infectious diseases are severe threats to human health and increase substantial financial burdens. Nanomaterials have shown great potential in timely and accurate bacterial identification, detection, and monitoring to improve the cure rate and reduce mortality. Recently, carbon dots have been evidenced to be ideal candidates for bacterial identification and detection due to their superior physicochemical properties and biocompatibility. This review outlines the detailed recognition elements and recognition strategies with functionalized carbon dots (FCDs) for bacterial identification and detection. The advantages and limitations of different kinds of FCDs-based sensors will be critically discussed. Meanwhile, the ongoing challenges and perspectives of FCDs-based sensors for bacteria sensing are put forward.

Abstract
Effisayil 1 was a multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of the anti-interleukin (IL)-36 receptor monoclonal antibody, spesolimab, in patients presenting with a generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) flare. Previously published data from this study revealed that within 1 week, rapid pustular and skin clearance were observed in patients receiving spesolimab versus placebo. In this pre-specified subgroup analysis, the efficacy of spesolimab was evaluated according to patient demographic and clinical characteristics at baseline in patients receiving spesolimab (n = 35) or placebo (n = 18) on Day 1. Efficacy was by assessed by achievement of primary endpoint (Generalized Pustular Psoriasis Physician Global Assessment [GPPGA] pustulation subscore of 0 at Week 1) and key secondary endpoint (GPPGA total score of 0 or 1 at Week 1). Safety was assessed at Week 1. Spesolimab was found to be efficacious and had a consistent and favourable safety profile in patients presenting with a GPP flare, regardless of patient demographics and clinical characteristics at baseline.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the feasibility and safety of one- stage bilateral video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) for resection of bilateral multiple pulmonary nodules (BMPNs). METHODS We analyzed the clinical characteristics, pathological features, perioperative outcomes and follow-up data of 41 patients with BMPNs undergoing one-stage bilateral VATS from July, 2011 to August, 2021. RESULTS One-stage bilateral VATS was performed uneventfully in 40 of the patients, and conversion to open surgery occurred in 1 case. The surgical approaches included bilateral lobectomy (4.9%), lobar-sublobar resection (36.6%) and sublobar-sublobar resection (58.5%) with a mean operative time of 196.3±54.5 min, a mean blood loss of 224.6±139.5 mL, a mean thoracic drainage duration of 4.7±1.1 days and a mean hospital stay of 14±3.8 days. Pathological examination revealed bilateral primary lung cancer in 15 cases, unilateral primary lung cancer in 21 cases and bilateral benign lesions in 5 cases. A total of 112 pulmonary nodules were resected, including 67 malignant and 45 benign lesions. Postoperative complications included pulmonary infection (5 cases), respiratory failure (2 cases), asthma attack (2 cases), atrial fibrillation (2 cases), and drug-induced liver injury (1 case). No perioperative death occurred in these patients, who had a 1-year survival rate of 97.6%. CONCLUSION With appropriate preoperative screening and perioperative management, one-stage bilateral VATS is feasible and safe for resection of BMPNs.

Abstract
Grape seed extract (GSE) was added to pullulan polysaccharide (PP)/xanthan gum (XG) as composite film (PP/XG/GSE or PXG). The observed composite morphology indicated their biocompatibility. Sample PXG100 (contain 100 mg/L GSE) demonstrated the best mechanical properties, with tensile strength of 16.62 ± 1.27 MPa, and the elongation at break of (22.60 ± 0.48)%. The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activity of PXG150 were the highest at (81.52 ± 1.57)% and (90.85 ± 1.54)%, respectively. PXG films also demonstrated inhibitory effects on Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Bacillus subtilis. The PXG films could also prolong the shelf life of fresh-cut apples because it could decrease the rate of weight loss and retain more vitamin C and total polyphenol even on the 5th day. The weight loss rate of PXG150 was decreased from (8.58 ± 0.6)% (control) to (4.15 ± 0.19)%. It was able to achieve vitamin C and total polyphenol retention rate of 91 % and 72 %, respectively, which was significantly higher that the control sample. Therefore, GSE had contributed in enhancing the antibacterial, antioxidant properties, mechanical strength, UV protection and water resistance in PXG composite films. This effectively extend the shelf life of fresh-cut apples, which it will be an excellent food packaging material.

Abstract
Bioenzymatic degradation of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a safe, efficient and environmentally friendly detoxification technology. In this work, AFB1 was successfully degraded by recombinant laccase (fmb-rL103) in the absence of a mediator. The laccase gene was cloned from Bacillus vallismortis fmb-103, and was expressed in heterologous host Escherichia coli after codon optimization. The extracellular production of fmb-rL103 could be induced by adding methanol (6 %, v/v), and the maximum yield was 1545.6 U/L. In the 10 L bioreactor, the extracellular yield increased to 50,950.6 U/L after 20 h of induction, accounting for three quarters of the total yield. The mechanism of methanol-induced extracellular secretion was further studied by measuring acetate content, lac103 gene expression and cell membrane permeability. Furthermore, we explored the biochemical properties of fmb-rL103 and its degradation conditions on AFB1. The degradation efficiency increased constantly with increase in incubation pH and temperature, and exceeded 60 % at pH 7.0 and 37 °C. This work provides new insight into developing the large-scale production of laccase and its application to degrade AFB1.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the risk of total knee replacement (TKR) for primary osteoarthritis (OA) associated with overweight/obesity in the Australian population. METHODS This population-based study analyzed 191,723 cases of TKR collected by the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Registry and population data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics. The time-trend change in incidence of TKR relating to BMI was assessed between 2015 and 2018. The influence of obesity on the incidence of TKR in different age and gender groups was determined. The population attributable fraction (PAF) was then calculated to estimate the effect of obesity reduction on TKR incidence. RESULTS The greatest increase in incidence of TKR was seen in patients from obese class III. The incidence rate ratio for having a TKR for obesity class III was 28.683 at those aged 18-54 years but was 2.029 at those aged >75 years. Females in obesity class III were 1.7 times more likely to undergo TKR compared to similarly classified males. The PAFs of TKR associated with overweight or obesity was 35%, estimating 14,287 cases of TKR attributable to obesity in 2018. The proportion of TKRs could be reduced by 20% if overweight and obese population move down one category. CONCLUSIONS Obesity has resulted in a significant increase in the incidence of TKR in the youngest population in Australia. The impact of obesity is greatest in the young and the female population. Effective strategies to reduce the national obese population could potentially reduce 35% of the TKR, with over 10,000 cases being avoided.

Abstract
Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-xanthan gum (XG) composite films with good degradation properties were prepared by casting method. The effects of XG amount on thickness, moisture content, water solubility, water vapor transmission (WVP), transmittance and mechanical properties of the composite film were investigated. All composite films produced uniform and transparent films and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, as well as X-ray diffraction (XRD) had proven the formation of hydrogen bonds and subsequently compatibility of the two polymers. In general, addition of XG in PVA was able to decrease moisture content, water solubility and WVP more than the pure PVA films, with sample PX30 demonstrated the best performance. This sample also had the best mechanical properties. It also demonstrated food packaging and capability better than that of commercial plastic bag. More importantly, our sample can be fully decomposed in soil and water within 12 h, which was not only significantly shorter than commercial plastic bag, but also other biodegradable materials. Therefore, PVA/XG-based food packaging material has demonstrated huge potential to be commercialized and replaces commercial plastic bag as an alternative packing material which is renewable, sustainable and environmentally friendly.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
How does the expression stability of commonly used reference genes (RG) vary in different human ovarian cells and tissues?
Summary answer
The RG stability differed among human ovarian cell types and tissues, but an RG with high stability was identified for each cell and tissue type.
What is known already
The expression of RGs used to normalize RT-qPCR may vary between different tissues, cell types, and experimental conditions. Hence, selecting the most appropriate RGs is critical in any experimental design to interpret data generated by RT-qPCR with the best accuracy. Human ovarian cells are phenotypically very different and often only available in limited amounts. In several animal species RG expression stability has been validated in oocytes and other ovarian cells, however, the suitability of a single universal RG in the different human ovarian cells and tissues has not been determined.
Study design, size, duration
This is an experimental study performed at a university hospital from January 2021 to September 2021.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
The freely available NormFinder software was used to analyze the expression stability of five commonly used RGs (GAPDH, B2M, RPLP0, ACTB, and PPIA) in human oocytes (n = 160), preantral follicles (n = 160), cumulus cells (n = 13), ovarian medulla (n = 8), and ovarian cortex tissue (n = 60). Samples were collected from 29 patients (aged 28 years on average; range 14–36) undergoing unilateral oophorectomy and ovarian tissue cryopreservation for fertility preservation.
Main results and the role of chance
The Normfinder software identified ACTB as the best RG for oocytes and cumulus cells; and B2M for medulla tissue and isolated follicles. Overall, comparisons of the cycle threshold (Ct) values demonstrated a wide variation among the RGs within the same group of samples (P < 0.05), especially for oocytes and preantral follicles with normalized RNA. The genes ACTB and RPLP0 showed the highest levels of expression and PPIA the lowest levels of expression in all types of samples, except for cortex tissue, where PPIA had the highest level of expression and B2M the lowest. These results infer that different results could be obtained when using different RGs for data normalization. The combination of two RGs only marginally increased stability, indicating that using a single validated RG would be sufficient when the available testing material is limited. For cultured ovarian cortex culture, GAPDH or ACTB were found to be the most stable genes depending on culture conditions.
Limitations, reasons for caution
Since human oocytes are scarce and contain a small amount of RNA, only five RGs were evaluated. Moreover, only germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes and preantral follicles (60-80 µm) were tested. Future studies may validate other genes and investigate the effect of oocyte maturation and follicle growth on RG stability.
Wider implications of the findings
Our findings highlight the importance of validating RGs for each cell type or tissue and culture condition. Hence, our results can be of use as guidance for future studies involving gene expression analyses in human ovarian cells and tissues, including oocytes and preantral follicles.

Abstract
BackgroundClinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) disease activity score (DAS) are measuring different aspects of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), they are essential in disease activity assessment. The radiomics was on facilitating readings by clinical specialists via enhancing the medical images in which subtle data differences could be distinguished.ObjectivesIf the additional information of MRI imaging can be considered as a predictor for axSpA disease activity? In this study, we sought to construct a nomogram integrating the sacroiliac joint (SIJ)- MRI radiomics features and the inflammatory biomarkers to assess disease activity and compare it with clinical disease acitivity index in axSpA patients.Methods203 patients data were collected prospectively and confirmed as axSpA were randomly divided into training (n = 143) and validation cohorts (n = 60). 1316 radiomics features were extracted from the 3.0T SIJ-MRI. A Nomogram model was constructed using multivariate logistic regression analysis Incorporating independent clinical factors and radiomics features score (Rad-score). The performance of clinics, Rad-score and nomogram models were evaluated by ROC analysis, calibration curve and decision curve analysis (DCA), and compared with the disease activity index(Ankylosing Spondylitis DAS (ASDAS)-C reactive protein (CRP), ASDAS-erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI)) and Spondyloarthritis Research Consortium of Canada (SPARCC) MRI scoring system.ResultsThe Rad-score allowed a good discrimination in the training (AUC, 0.91; 95% CI, 0.85-0.96) and the validation cohort (AUC, 0.84; 95% CI, 0.73-0.96). The CRP-radiomics nomogram model also showed favorable discrimination in the training (AUC, 0.96; 95% CI, 0.93-0.99) and the validation cohort (AUC, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.80-0.98), better than BASDAI(AUC, 0.58), ASDAS-CRP(AUC, 0.72), ASDAS-ESR(AUC, 0.77), ESR(AUC, 0.72), CRP(AUC, 0.77) and BASFI(AUC, 0.73), had no statistical difference with SPARCC(AUC, 0.87). Calibration curves and DCA demonstrated the nomogram fit well (p > 0.05) and was useful for activity evaluation.ConclusionRad-score showed good discriminative ability to assess disease activity in axSpA. The nomogram can increase the efficacy for assessment axSpA disease activity, which might simplify clinical evaluation.Figure 1.Comparison of ROC curve analyses in prediction models.

Abstract
BackgroundTyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) is an intracellular kinase that mediates signaling of key cytokines (eg, interleukin [IL]-23 and Type I interferons) involved in the pathogenesis of immune-mediated diseases including plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Deucravacitinib is a novel, oral, selective, allosteric inhibitor of TYK2 that achieves high selectivity by uniquely binding to the regulatory domain of the enzyme, rather than to the more conserved active domain. Deucravacitinib showed superior efficacy compared with placebo at 16 weeks in a Phase 2 trial in patients with PsA (NCT03881059). Results from the 16-week, placebo-controlled periods of two 52-week, Phase 3 trials in psoriasis (POETYK PSO-1 and POETYK PSO-2) previously showed that deucravacitinib was significantly more efficacious than placebo and apremilast based on the coprimary endpoints of ≥75% reduction from baseline in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 75) and a static Physician’s Global Assessment (sPGA) score of 0 or 1 (clear or almost clear) at Week 16.ObjectivesTo evaluate the efficacy of deucravacitinib over 52 weeks in the POETYK PSO-1 and POETYK PSO-2 trials.MethodsPOETYK PSO-1 (NCT03624127) and PSO-2 (NCT03611751) were double-blinded trials that randomised patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis (body surface area involvement ≥10%, PASI ≥12, sPGA score ≥3) 2:1:1 to deucravacitinib 6 mg once daily, placebo, or apremilast 30 mg twice daily. Patients receiving placebo were switched to deucravacitinib at Week 16 in both trials. Patients randomised to deucravacitinib in PSO-1 received deucravacitinib continuously through Week 52. PSO-2 included a randomised withdrawal phase in which patients originally randomised to deucravacitinib who had achieved PASI 75 response at Week 24 were rerandomised 1:1 to placebo or deucravacitinib, whereas those who did not achieve PASI 75 response at Week 24 continued receiving deucravacitinib. The proportions of patients achieving PASI 75 and sPGA 0/1 responses were evaluated up to Week 52. Secondary efficacy endpoints evaluated over this period included PASI 90, PASI 100, percentage change from baseline in PASI, sPGA 0 (clear), change from baseline in the Psoriasis Symptoms and Signs Diary (PSSD) symptom score, and Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) 0/1 (no impact on patient’s life).ResultsA total of 666 and 1020 patients were randomised in PSO-1 and PSO-2, respectively. Demographic and baseline disease characteristics were balanced across treatment groups; mean age was 46.6 years, mean disease duration was 18.6 years, 18.4% of patients had PsA, and 34.8% had previously used biologic therapy. PASI 75, PASI 90, and PASI 100 responses were maintained from Week 16 to Week 52 in PSO-1 (Figure 1). Additionally, sPGA responses were maintained during this period (sPGA 0/1: 53.6% to 52.7%; sPGA 0: 17.5% to 23.5%, respectively). Patients who switched from placebo to deucravacitinib at Week 16 demonstrated PASI 75 and sPGA 0/1 responses at Week 52 (68.3% and 53.8%, respectively) comparable to those observed in patients who received continuous deucravacitinib treatment from Day 1 (65.1% and 52.7%, respectively). In PSO-2, among deucravacitinib-treated patients who achieved PASI 75 at Week 24 and were rerandomised to continue treatment, responses were maintained at Week 52 in the majority of patients (PASI 75, 80.4% [119/148]; sPGA 0/1, 70.3% [83/118]). Results for percentage change from baseline in PASI, change from baseline in the PSSD symptom score, and DLQI 0/1 were consistent with those reported for PASI and sPGA responses.ConclusionResults from the Phase 3 POETYK PSO-1 and PSO-2 trials demonstrated that deucravacitinib was efficacious through 52 weeks in patients with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. Clinical responses were maintained in patients who received continuous deucravacitinib treatment and were improved in patients who switched from placebo at Week 16 to deucravacitinib treatment.AcknowledgementsThis study was sponsored by Bristol Myers Squibb.

Abstract
BackgroundBone marrow oedema (BMO) of the sacroiliac joints (SIJs) is evaluated to diagnose, classify and monitor disease activity in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). Available quantitative methodologies rely on human visual assessment, and errors can’t be completely avoided. Radiomics can extract and select discriminative and quantified features from regions of interest (ROIs), making a more accurate and objective description of BMO.ObjectivesTo develop a more objective and efficient method based on radiomics to evaluate BMO of the SIJs by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with axSpA in comparison with Spondyloarthritis Research Consortium of Canada (SPARCC) scoring system.MethodsFrom September 2013 to July 2021, 523 patients with axSpA underwent 3.0T SIJ-MRI were included, who were randomly classified as training cohort(n=367) and validation cohort(n=156). The optimal radiomics features, selected from the 3.0T SIJ-MRI in the training cohort, were included to build the radiomics model. Four clinical risk predictors were adopted to build the clinical model. The performance of the clinical and radiomics models was evaluated by ROC analysis and decision curve analysis (DCA). Rad-scores were calculated by the radiomics model and SPARCC scores were performed to quantify the BMO of SIJs. We also assessed the correlation between Rad-score and SPARCC score.ResultsThe radiomics model, built by 15 optimal features, showed favorable discrimination about SPARCC score <2 or ≥2 both in the training (AUC, 0.91; 95% CI: 0.88-0.94) and the validation cohort (AUC, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.84-0.94). DCA confirmed that the radiomics model was clinically useful. Furthermore, Rad-score has significant correlation with SPARCC score for scoring the status of BMO (rs=0.78, P< 0.001), and moderation correlation for scoring the change (r=0.40, P=0.005).ConclusionThe radiomics can accurately assess the BMO of the SIJs in axSpA, providing an alternative to SPARCC scoring system. There was a positive correlation between Rad-score and SPARCC score.References[1]van der Heijde D, Sieper J, Maksymowych WP, Lambert RG, Chen S, Hojnik M, et al.

Abstract
A novel film composed of xanthan gum (XG) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) was prepared (XH). The films were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The light transmittance, mechanical properties and water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) indicated the good compatibility between XG and HPMC with hydrogen-bond interaction and XG had a significant effect on the chemical structure, crystalline texture and microstructure of the XH composite film. The best XH sample with optimum XG concentration of 2 g/L was used as food packaging via coating onto banana, whereby the weight loss rate on banana was able to decreased from 25 ± 3% (without XH coating) to 16 ± 4% (with XH coating). Consequently, the release of flavor substances was also decreased. Banana shelf life has qualitatively improved with XH composite film for food preservation and affirmed the uses in food packaging applications.

Abstract
Aspergillus flavus causes huge crop losses, reduces crop quality and has adverse effects on human and animal health. A large amount of food contaminated with aflatoxin can greatly increase the risk of liver cancer. Therefore, prevention and control of aflatoxin production have aroused attention of research in various countries. Natamycin extracted from Streptomyces spp. has been widely used in production practice due to its good specificity and safety. Here, we found that natamycin could significantly inhibit fungal growth, conidia germination, ergosterol and AFB1 production by A. flavus in a dose-dependent manner. Scanning electron microscope analysis indicated that the number of conidia was decreased, the outer wall of conidia was destroyed, and the mycelia were shrivelled and tangled by natamycin. RNA-Seq data indicated that natamycin inhibited fungal growth and conidia development of A. flavus by significantly down-regulating some genes involved in ergosterol biosynthesis, such as Erg13, HMG1 and HMG2. It inhibited conidia germination by significantly down-regulating some genes related to conidia development, such as FluG and VosA. After natamycin exposure, the decreased ratio of aflS/aflR caused by the down-regulation of all the structural genes, which subsequently resulted in the suppression of AFB1 production. In conclusion, this study served to reveal the inhibitory mechanisms of natamycin on fungal growth and AFB1 biosynthesis in A. flavus and to provide solid evidence for its application in controlling AFB1 contamination.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the diagnostic performance of the radiomics features of pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) in determining haemodynamically significant coronary artery stenosis as evaluated by fractional flow reserve (FFR). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 92 patients with clinically suspected coronary artery disease who underwent coronary computed tomography (CT) angiography (CCTA), invasive coronary angiography (ICA), and FFR examination within 1 month were included retrospectively, and 121 lesions were randomly assigned to the training and testing set. Based on manual segmentation of PCAT, 1,116 radiomics features were computed. After radiomics robustness assessment and feature selection, radiomics models were established using the different machine-learning algorithms. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) and net reclassification index (NRI) were analysed to compare the discrimination and reclassification abilities of radiomics models. RESULTS Two radiomics features were selected after exclusions, and both were significantly higher in coronary arteries with FFR ≤0.8 than those with FFR >0.8. ROC analysis showed that the combination of CCTA and decision tree radiomics model achieved significantly higher diagnostic performance (AUC: 0.812) than CCTA alone (AUC: 0.599, p=0.015). Furthermore, the NRI of the combined model was 0.820 and 0.775 in the training and testing sets, respectively, suggesting the radiomics features of PCAT had were effective in classifying the haemodynamic significance of coronary stenosis. CONCLUSIONS Adding PCAT radiomics features to CCTA enabled identification of haemodynamically significant coronary artery stenosis.

Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to investigate the effect of metal ions on lipopeptide production by Bacillus subtilis strain FJAT-4 and the mechanism of negative regulation by Ca2+ . METHODS AND RESULTS The quantitative measurement of lipopeptides in response to K+ , Na+ , Mg2+ and Ca2+ addition was carried out by LC-MS. The contents of fengycin and surfactin varied within the range of 116.24-129.80 mg/L and 34.03-63.11 mg/L in the culture media containing K+ , Na+ and Mg2+ , while the levels were 0.86 and 0.63 mg/L in the media containing Ca2+ . Ca2+ at a high concentration (45 mM) did not adversely affect the growth of strain FJAT-4, but caused significant downregulation of lipopeptide synthesis-related gene expression, corresponding to a decrease in lipopeptide production. This inhibition by Ca2+ was further investigated by proteomic analysis. In total, 112 proteins were upregulated and 524 proteins were downregulated in the presence of additional Ca2+ (45 mM). Among these differentially expressed proteins (DEPs), 28 were related to phosphotransferase activity, and 42 were related to kinase activity. The proteomics results suggested that altered levels of three two-component signal-transduction systems (ResD/ResE, PhoP/PhoR and DegU/DegS) might be involved in the control of expression of the fen and srfA operons of FJAT-4 under high calcium stress. CONCLUSIONS The Ca2+ at the high concentration (45 mM) triggers a decrease in lipopeptide production, which might be attributed to the regulation of three two-component signal-transduction systems ResD/ResE, PhoP/PhoR and DegU/DegS. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY The regulatory effect of calcium on the expression of genes encoding lipopeptide synthetases can be applied to optimize the production of lipopeptides.

Abstract
Red blood cells (RBCs) are biocompatible carriers that can be employed to deliver different bioactive substances. In the past few decades, many strategies have been developed to encapsulate or attach drugs to RBCs. Osmotic-based encapsulation methods have been industrialized recently, and some encapsulated RBC formulations have reached the clinical stage for treating tumors and neurological diseases. Inspired by the intrinsic properties of intact RBCs, some advanced delivery strategies have also been proposed. These delivery systems combine RBCs with other novel systems to further exploit and expand the application of RBCs. This review summarizes the clinical progress of drugs encapsulated into intact RBCs, focusing on the loading and clinical trials. It also introduces the latest advanced research based on developing prospects and limitations of intact RBCs drug delivery system (DDS), hoping to provide a reference for related research fields and further application potential of intact RBCs based drug delivery system.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the prediction power of HIV infection risk assessment tool and the applicability in MSM in Guizhou province. Methods: MSM were recruited through snowball sampling method. Questionnaire surveys were conducted among the MSM using HIV infection risk assessment tool, and combined with HIV serologic test results, the risk prediction power of HIV infection risk assessment tool was evaluated. Results: A total of 3 379 MSM were recruited from January 2018 to December 2019 in Guizhou. The HIV infection rate was 3.3%(111/3 379). The mean risk scores of HIV positive and HIV negative MSM were (12.15±3.08) and (12.07±3.07), respectively. The difference in risk score was significant between MSM with different HIV status (t=8.69, P<0.001). According to the principle of decision tree, individual risk scores were divided into following three categories: ≤11.96, 11.97-14.80 and >14.80, the HIV infection rate was 0.8%, 4.3% and 8.6% respectively, suggesting that the higher the individual risk score was, the higher the HIV infection rate was (trend χ2=88.18, P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the higher the individual risk score was, the higher the risk of HIV infection was. Compared to the total score ≤11.96, the aOR values at total scores of 11.97-14.80 and >14.80 were 6.34 (95%CI: 3.38-11.88) and 14.07(95%CI: 7.44-26.61), respectively. The risk of HIV infection in Miao ethnic group was higher than that in Han ethnic group (aOR=1.83, 95%CI:1.04-3.21), and the risk of HIV infection in those with education level of primary school and below was higher than that in undergraduates or those with education level of junior college and above (aOR=2.50, 95%CI:1.06-5.88), and the risk of HIV infection was higher in those who had bisexual behaviors than in those who had homosexual behaviors (aOR=1.95, 95%CI:1.19-3.19). The risk of HIV infection was higher in those who had never received HIV testing (aOR=1.53, 95%CI:1.01-2.33). The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under ROC (AUC) for HIV infection prediction was 0.751 (95%CI:0.710-0.792, P<0.001). The maximum Youden's index was individual risk score of 12.56, and the sensitivity of the risk assessment tool was 0.838, and its specificity was 0.412. Conclusions: The results of HIV infection risk assessment tool in Guizhou indicated that in MSM the higher the individual risk score, the higher the risk of HIV infection is. The tool can be used to evaluate the risk of HIV infection in MSM, but the specificity should be improved.

Abstract
Stable gellan gum (GG)/graphene oxide (GO) aerogels were prepared by freeze-drying a mixture of GG and GO. On introduction of GO, the GG/GO aerogels had different level pore structures due to the different freezing temperatures. The volume per gram (1/ρ) of GG/GO aerogels ranges from 76.80 ± 1.54-158.30 ± 2.30 cm3/g. The porosity of GG/GO-3 (-80 °C) and GG/GO-6 (-20 °C) was 45.53 % and 61.30 %, respectively. The resulting three-dimensional GG/GO aerogels exhibited excellent performance in methylene blue (MB) adsorption. The pseudo-first-order and Freundlich isotherm models produced the best fits for the adsorption kinetics and adsorption equilibrium, respectively. The Gibbs free energy, enthalpy, and entropy of adsorption indicated that the adsorption was a spontaneous, exothermic, and entropy-increasing process. It is illustrated that the GG/GO aerogels exhibited faster adsorption kinetics and adsorption capacity. These GG/GO aerogels can remove MB from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Abnormal accumulation of lymphoblasts in the blood and bone marrow is the main characteristic of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). Glucocorticoids are effective drugs for ALL, while glucocorticoid resistance is an obstacle to ALL therapy. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are implicated in the drug resistance and modulate the response of ALL to glucocorticoids. The role of miR-503 in glucocorticoid sensitivity of ALL was investigated in this study. Firstly, T-leukaemic cells were isolated from patients with ALL. The human ALL cell line (CCRF/CEM) was incubated with dexamethasone to establish a glucocorticoid- resistant ALL cell line (CCRF/CEM-R). Data from MTT showed that IC50 (50% inhibitory concentration) of dexamethasone in T-leukaemic cells isolated from glucocorticoid-resistant ALL patients or CCRF/CEM-R was increased compared with IC50 in T-leukaemic cells isolated from glucocorticoid- sensitive ALL patients or CCRF/CEM. MiR- 503 was down-regulated in glucocorticoid-resistant leukaemic cells and CCRF/CEM-R. Secondly, overexpression of miR-503 sensitized CCRF/CEM-R to dexamethasone. Moreover, over-expression of miR- 503 also promoted the sensitivity of ALL cells to dexamethasone. Thirdly, miR-503 bound to WNT3A mRNA and negatively regulated the expression of WNT3A. Over-expression of miR-503 reduced protein expression of nuclear β-catenin, and over-expression of WNT3A attenuated the miR-503 overexpression- induced decrease in nuclear β-catenin. Lastly, the over-expression of miR-503-induced increased sensitivity of ALL-resistant cells and CCRF/ CEM-R to dexamethasone was attenuated by overexpression of WNT3A. In conclusion, miR-503 targeted WNT3A mRNA to sensitize ALL cells to glucocorticoids through inactivation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

Abstract
This paper demonstrates how secondary electron energy spectroscopy (SEES) performed inside a scanning electron microscope (SEM) can be used to map sample atomic number and acquire bulk valence band density of states (DOS) information at low primary beam voltages. The technique uses an electron energy analyser attachment to detect small changes in the shape of the scattered secondary electron (SE) spectrum and extract out fine structure features from it. Close agreement between experimental and theoretical bulk valance band DOS distributions was obtained for six different test samples, where the normalised root mean square deviation ranged from 2.7 to 6.7%. High accuracy levels of this kind do not appear to have been reported before. The results presented in this paper point towards SEES becoming a quantitative material analysis companion tool for low voltage scanning electron microscopy (LVSEM) and providing new applications for Scanning Auger Microscopy (SAM) instruments.

Abstract
Objective: To understand sexual needs and factors of risky sexual behaviors among elderly men at different ages in two communities of Qiandongnan Miao and Dong autonomous prefecture and provide basis for targeted HIV prevention and intervention. Methods: Two communities in the prefecture were selected as study sites. Questionnaire surveys were carried out among elderly men aged 50 and over who visited or consulted in the communities from June to December 2018, and they were tested for HIV and syphilis antibodies. Results: Among 400 elderly men, 209 (52.2%) were 50-64 years old, and 191(47.8%) were above 65 years old. They were mainly Miao people, accounting for 66.3% (265/400), and 235 (58.8%) had an education no more than 6 years. HIV awareness of the two age groups were only 25.8% (54/199) and 26.2% (50/191), respectively. Among those aged 50-64, 142 (68.0%) felt normal sexual desire, and 153 (73.6%) reported penile erections or erections in most cases whenever sex, and 52.9% (110) ejaculated most of the time. HIV prevalence was 1.0% (4/400). Compared with the over 65-year-old group, the proportion of having sex with spouse/stable partners (89.5%, 179/200), proportion of no condom use with their spouse/stable sexual partners during the most recent sex (93.8%, 168/179), proportion of having casual sex (11.0%, 23/209) and commercial sex (3.8%, 8/209) were all higher among 50-64 age group. In comparison to those aged over 65 years old, average monthly income>3 000, and use of sex helper, aged 50-64 (OR=2.70, 95%CI: 1.22-5.95), average monthly income ≤1 000 yuan (OR=2.79, 95%CI: 1.25-6.21), and no use of sex helper (OR=3.78) (95%CI: 1.65-8.67) were related factors of HIV risky sexual behavior last time. Conclusion: Elderly men in the minority prefecture had low HIV awareness. Compared with those≥65 years old, the 50-64 age group had more active sexual behaviors and higher sexual needs. Those from 50-64 age group, with lower economic level and good sexual ability were more likely to have HIV risky sexual behaviors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To (i) evaluate the applicability of the European-derived biomarker multiples of the median (MoM) formulae for risk assessment of preterm pre-eclampsia (PE) in seven Asian populations, spanning the east, southeast and south regions of the continent, (ii) perform quality-assurance (QA) assessment of the biomarker measurements and (iii) establish criteria for prospective ongoing QA assessment of biomarker measurements. METHODS This was a prospective, non-intervention, multicenter study in 4023 singleton pregnancies, at 11 to 13 + 6 weeks' gestation, in 11 recruiting centers in China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand. Women were screened for preterm PE between December 2016 and June 2018 and gave written informed consent to participate in the study. Maternal and pregnancy characteristics were recorded and mean arterial pressure (MAP), mean uterine artery pulsatility index (UtA-PI) and maternal serum placental growth factor (PlGF) were measured in accordance with The Fetal Medicine Foundation (FMF) standardized measurement protocols. MAP, UtA-PI and PlGF were transformed into MoMs using the published FMF formulae, derived from a largely Caucasian population in Europe, which adjust for gestational age and covariates that affect directly the biomarker levels. Variations in biomarker MoM values and their dispersion (SD) and cumulative sum tests over time were evaluated in order to identify systematic deviations in biomarker measurements from the expected distributions. RESULTS In the total screened population, the median (95% CI) MoM values of MAP, UtA-PI and PlGF were 0.961 (0.956-0.965), 1.018 (0.996-1.030) and 0.891 (0.861-0.909), respectively. Women in this largely Asian cohort had approximately 4% and 11% lower MAP and PlGF MoM levels, respectively, compared with those expected from normal median formulae, based on a largely Caucasian population, whilst UtA-PI MoM values were similar. UtA-PI and PlGF MoMs were beyond the 0.4 to 2.5 MoM range (truncation limits) in 16 (0.4%) and 256 (6.4%) pregnancies, respectively. QA assessment tools indicated that women in all centers had consistently lower MAP MoM values than expected, but were within 10% of the expected value. UtA-PI MoM values were within 10% of the expected value at all sites except one. Most PlGF MoM values were systematically 10% lower than the expected value, except for those derived from a South Asian population, which were 37% higher. CONCLUSIONS Owing to the anthropometric differences in Asian compared with Caucasian women, significant differences in biomarker MoM values for PE screening, particularly MAP and PlGF MoMs, were noted in Asian populations compared with the expected values based on European-derived formulae. If reliable and consistent patient-specific risks for preterm PE are to be reported, adjustment for additional factors or development of Asian-specific formulae for the calculation of biomarker MoMs is required. We have also demonstrated the importance and need for regular quality assessment of biomarker values. Copyright © 2019 ISUOG. Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
