Abstract
Although anti-TNF antibodies are extensively used to treat Crohn's disease (CD), a significant proportion of patients, up to 40%, exhibit an inadequate response to this therapy. Our objective was to identify potential targets that could improve the effectiveness of anti-TNF therapy in CD. Through the integration and analysis of transcriptomic data from various CD databases, we found that the expression of AQP9 was significantly increased in anti-TNF therapy-resistant specimens. The response to anti-TNF therapy in the CD mouse model was significantly enhanced by specifically inhibiting AQP9. Further experiments found that the blockade of AQP9, which is dominantly expressed in macrophages, decreased inflamed macrophage functions and cytokine expression. Mechanistic studies revealed that AQP9 transported glycerol into macrophages, where it was metabolized to LPA, which was further metabolized to LPA, resulting in the activation of the LPAR2 receptor and downstream hippo pathway, finally promoting the expression of cytokines, especially IL23 and IL1β⊡ Taken together, the expansion of AQP9+ macrophages is associated with resistance to anti-TNF therapy in Crohn's disease. These findings indicated that AQP9 could be a potential target for enhancing anti-TNF therapy in Crohn's disease.

Abstract
Objectives Studies on rectal neuroendocrine tumors (R-NETs) that are 1-2 cm in size are limited, and the optimal treatment for these tumors is not well established. Methods Data from patients with primary localized R-NETs 1-2 cm in size were retrospectively collected from 17 large-scale referral medical centers in China. Long-term prognosis, quality of life (QOL), and fecal incontinence were evaluated, and the effects of local excision (LE) or radical resection (RR) were elucidated using propensity score matching (PSM). Results A total of 272 patients were included in this study; 233 underwent LE, and the remaining 39 underwent RR. Patients in the LE group showed lower tumor location, fewer postoperative Clavien-Dindo III-V complications, more G1 tumors, and lower tumor stage. There were no significant differences in the relapse-free survival or overall survival (OS) between the LE and RR groups after PSM. Patients in the LE group reported superior physical, role, emotional, social, and cognitive functions, global QOL, and Wexner fecal incontinence scores compared with those in the RR group (all P < 0.050). Eighteen (6.6%) patients had lymph node metastases. Multivariable analysis revealed that tumor location (odds ratio [OR] = 3.19, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.04-10.07, P = 0.010), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) > 1.80 (OR = 4.50, 1.46-15.89, P = 0.012), and T3-T4 (OR = 36.31, 95% CI 7.85-208.62, P < 0.001) were independent risk factor for lymph node metastasis. Conclusions R-NETs measuring 1-2 cm generally have a favorable prognosis, and there is no difference in postoperative survival between LE and RR. For patients without lymph node metastasis, LE should be the preferred choice; however, for patients with a higher tumor location, preoperative NLR >1.8 or T3/T4 tumors, RR should be considered.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the prospective associations between physical activity and incident ischemic stroke in adults. Methods: Data of China Kadoorie Biobank study in Tongxiang of Zhejiang were used. After excluding participants with cancers, strokes, heart diseases and diabetes at baseline study, a total of 53 916 participants aged 30-79 years were included in the final analysis. The participants were divided into 5 groups according to the quintiles of their physical activity level. Cox proportional hazard regression models was used to calculate the hazard ratios (HR) for the analysis on the association between baseline physical activity level and risk for ischemic stroke. Results: The total physical activity level in the participants was (30.63±15.25) metabolic equivalent (MET)-h/d, and it was higher in men [(31.04±15.48) MET-h/d] than that in women [(30.33±15.07) MET-h/d] (P<0.001). In 595 526 person-years of the follow-up (average 11.4 years), a total of 1 138 men and 1 082 women were newly diagnosed with ischemic stroke. Compared to participants with the lowest physical activity level (<16.17 MET-h/d), after adjusting for socio-demographic factors, lifestyle, BMI, waist circumference, and SBP, the HRs for the risk for ischemic stroke in those with moderate low physical activity level (16.17-24.94 MET-h/d), moderate physical activity level (24.95-35.63 MET-h/d), moderate high physical activity level (35.64-43.86 MET-h/d) and the highest physical activity level (≥43.87 MET-h/d) were 0.93 (95%CI: 0.83-1.04), 0.87 (95%CI: 0.76-0.98), 0.82 (95%CI: 0.71-0.95) and 0.76 (95%CI: 0.64-0.89), respectively. Conclusion: Improving physical activity level has an effect on reducing the risk for ischemic stroke.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies on the grade 2 rectal neuroendocrine tumors are limited and the optimal treatment for these tumors is not well established. OBJECTIVE To compare the oncologic results of local excision versus radical resection for the treatment of grade 2 rectal neuroendocrine tumors. DESIGN Retrospective multicenter propensity score-matched study to minimize heterogeneity between groups and focus on the difference between surgery strategies. SETTINGS Seventeen Chinese large-scale medical centers participated in this study. PATIENTS A total of 144 patients with pathologically confirmed grade 2 rectal neuroendocrine tumors were retrospectively analyzed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Cancer-specific survival and relapse-free survival were assessed to compare surgery strategies. RESULTS A total of 144 patients with grade 2 rectal neuroendocrine tumors were enrolled in this study. Twenty-seven patients underwent endoscopic resection, 55 underwent transanal excision, 50 underwent radical resection, and 12 underwent palliative surgery or biopsy for distant metastasis. Of the 50 patients who underwent radical resection, 30 (60.0%) had clinically positive lymph nodes based on the histopathology results. The optimal cutoff value for tumor size to predict cancer-specific survival was 1.5 cm. In patients with grade 2 rectal neuroendocrine tumors ≤ 1.5 cm, there were no significant differences in cancer-specific survival and relapse-free survival between local excision and radical resection groups (P >0.05). In patients with grade 2 rectal neuroendocrine tumors > 1.5 cm, relapse-free survival was significantly lower in the local excision group than in the radical resection group (P = 0.04). LIMITATIONS The nature of retrospective review and relatively short follow-up period are limitations of this study. CONCLUSIONS Grade 2 rectal neuroendocrine tumors have a nonnegligible rate of lymph node metastasis. Local excision is a feasible choice for tumors ≤ 1.5 cm without metastasis, while radical resection is more beneficial in those > 1.5 cm. See Video Abstract.

Abstract
PURPOSE Diabetes and dyslipidemia are among the most common chronic diseases with increasing global disease burdens, and they frequently occur together. The study aimed to investigate differences in the heritability of glycemic traits and serum lipid indicators and differences in overlapping genetic and environmental influences between them across age groups. METHODS This study included 1189 twin pairs from the Chinese National Twin Registry and divided them into three groups: aged ≤ 40, 41-50, and > 50 years old. Univariate and bivariate structural equation models (SEMs) were conducted on glycemic indicators and serum lipid indicators, including blood glucose (GLU), glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), in the total sample and three age groups. RESULTS All phenotypes showed moderate to high heritability (0.37-0.64). The heritability of HbA1c demonstrated a downward trend with age (HbA1c: 0.50-0.79), while others remained relatively stable (GLU: 0.55-0.62, TC: 0.58-0.66, TG: 0.50-0.63, LDL-C: 0.24-0.58, HDL-C: 0.31-0.57). The bivariate SEMs demonstrated that GLU and HbA1c were correlated with each serum lipid indicator (0.10-0.17), except HDL-C. Except for HbA1c and LDL-C, as well as HbA1c and HDL-C, differences in genetic correlations underlying glycemic traits and serum lipids between age groups were observed, with the youngest group showing a significantly higher genetic correlation than the oldest group. CONCLUSION Across the whole adulthood, genetic influences were consistently important for GLU, TC, TG, LDL-C and HDL-C, and age may affect the shared genetic influences between glycemic traits and serum lipids. Further studies are needed to elucidate the role of age in the interactions of genes related to glycemic traits and serum lipids.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, the significance of the nervous system in the tumor microenvironment has gained increasing attention. The bidirectional communication between nerves and cancer cells plays a critical role in tumor initiation and progression. Perineural invasion (PNI) occurs when tumor cells invade the nerve sheath and/or encircle more than 33% of the nerve circumference. PNI is a common feature in various malignancies and is associated with tumor invasion, metastasis, cancer-related pain, and unfavorable clinical outcomes. The colon and rectum are highly innervated organs, and accumulating studies support PNI as a histopathologic feature of colorectal cancer (CRC). Therefore, it is essential to investigate the role of nerves in CRC and comprehend the mechanisms of PNI to impede tumor progression and improve patient survival. CONCLUSION This review elucidates the clinical significance of PNI, summarizes the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms, introduces various experimental models suitable for studying PNI, and discusses the therapeutic potential of targeting this phenomenon. By delving into the intricate interactions between nerves and tumor cells, we hope this review can provide valuable insights for the future development of CRC treatments.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the epidemiological patterns of comorbidity of anxiety symptoms and depression symptoms among middle and high school students in Zhejiang Province and to provide evidence for making strategy and evaluation of intervention. Methods: Through a multi-stage sampling design, 28 043 students from 376 schools in 30 counties/districts were recruited and surveyed using anonymous self-administered questionnaires in classrooms under the supervision of trained staff between April and June 2022. Anxiety symptoms were assessed using generalized Anxiety Disorders 7-Item Scale, and depression symptoms were assessed using Patient Health Questionnaire 9-Item Depression Scale. A total of 27 004 students were included in the final analysis. Results: The overall prevalence of comorbidity of anxiety symptoms and depression symptoms was 11.54% (95%CI: 10.90%-12.19%), higher among girls (15.42%, 95%CI: 14.47%- 16.38%) than boys (8.05%, 95%CI: 7.43%-8.67%) (P<0.001), higher among students living in rural areas (12.35%, 95%CI: 11.49%-13.22%) than those in urban areas (10.06%, 95%CI: 9.27%-10.86%) (P<0.001). The prevalence of comorbidity of students attending middle school, academic high school, and vocational high school was 11.73% (95%CI: 10.82%-12.64%), 12.49% (95%CI: 11.20%- 13.79%), and 9.98% (95%CI: 8.68%-11.27%), respectively (P=0.025). The prevalence of comorbidity was higher among students in divorced/widow/separated families (16.64%, 95%CI: 14.86%-18.43%) than those in intact families (10.82%, 95%CI: 10.14%-11.50%) (P<0.001). The wealthier the families, the lower the prevalence of comorbidity (P<0.001). The prevalence of comorbidity was higher among cigarettes smokers in the past 30 days (21.70%,95%CI: 18.24%- 25.16%) than non-smokers (11.13%, 95%CI: 10.51%-11.76%), higher among alcohol drinkers in the past 30 days (19.36%, 95%CI: 17.58%-21.14%) than non-drinkers (10.05%, 95%CI: 9.43%- 10.68%), higher among students engaging in physical fight in the past 12 months (18.42%, 95%CI: 16.75%-20.09%) than those without physical fight (10.45%, 95%CI: 9.81%-11.10%). The more frequently students engaged in physical exercise, the lower the prevalence of comorbidity (P<0.001). The poorer the academic performance self-reported, the higher the prevalence of comorbidity (P<0.001). Conclusion: More than one-tenth of middle and high school students in Zhejiang Province have comorbidity of anxiety symptoms and depression symptoms, and more attention should be paid to adolescent mental health.

Abstract
Chinese doctors are required to inform patients' direct relatives of a cancer diagnosis rather than the patients themselves. The disease may be hidden from patients by their family members, which could result in severe outcomes. We selected postoperative T3 esophageal cancer (EsC) patients hospitalized from June 2015 to December 2019 as research subjects. The patients were divided into a direct-notification group and an indirect-notification group. Several variables were used to evaluate both groups' 36-month progress-free survival (PFS). A risk prediction model of prognosis based on the risk score was established, which was assessed using the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curve. One hundred and thirteen patients were enrolled in the training group and forty-eight in the validation group. Cox multivariate regression analysis revealed that males, late stage, poor pathological differentiation, and indirect notification were independent worse risk factors for postoperative T3 stage EsC patients at 36-month PFS (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.454, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.254-0.812, P = .008; HR = 1.560, 95% CI: 1.006-2.420, P = .047; HR = 0.595, 95% CI: 0.378-0.936, P = .025; HR = 2.686, 95% CI: 1.679-4.297, P < 0.001, respectively). The type of notification was the best correlation factor. The risk score was calculated as follows: risk score = 0.988 × cancer notification (indirect = 1, direct = 0)-0.790 × sex (female = 1, Male = 0) + 0.445 × stage (IIIB = 1, IIA + IIB = 0)-0.519 × pathological differentiation (moderately + well = 1, poorly = 0). The model had a sensitivity of 64.8% and specificity of 81.8%, with the AUC at 0.717 (95% CI: 0.614-0.810) in internal verification, and a sensitivity of 56.8% and specificity of 100%, with the AUC at 0.705 (95% CI: 0.651-0.849) in external validation. The model had good internal and external stability. The model showed a Brier score of 0.18. Indirect notification of a cancer diagnosis was an important negative predictor of postoperative EsC patients' PFS. The model displayed good accuracy and stability in the prediction of risk for cancer progression.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) in the plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of silicosis patients with artificial quartz stone plate processing. Methods: In January 2022, 10 patients with artificial quartz stone plate processing silicosis and 20 patients with common silicosis who were hospitalized and diagnosed in a hospital at Zhejiang Province from June 2019 to December 2021 were retrospectively selected as the research objects, and 30 healthy people were selected as the control group during the same period. Plasma of all subjects and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of all patients were collected. The levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and were analyzed. Results: The levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in the plasma of patients with silicosis were higher than those of the control group (P<0.05), and the levels of TNF-α and IL-1β in the plasma of silicosis patients with artificial quartz stone plate processing were higher than those of common silicosis patients (P<0.05). The levels of TNF-α and IL-1β in plasma of artificial quartz stone plate processing silicosis patients were higher than those of common silicosis patients at the same silicon stage (P<0.05). The levels of IL-1β in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of silicosis patients with artificial quartz stone plate processing was higher than that of patients with common silicosis (P<0.05) . Conclusion: The levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in silicosis patients with artificial quartz stone plate processing are higher than those in patients with common silicosis, which may be related to dust components they are exposed to.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors on the incidence of early neurological deterioration during the treatment of branch atheromatous disease (BAD). Methods: A retrospective analysis of 297 BAD patients admitted to the Department of Neurology in Zhengzhou People's Hospital from January 2020 to April 2023 was made. According to whether to use PCSK9 inhibitor treatment, they were divided into PCSK9 inhibitor group (81 cases) and control group (216 cases). Propensity score matching (PSM) method was used to eliminate the general situation difference between PCSK9 inhibitor group and control group. Seventy-two cases were successfully matched in each group. The early neurological deterioration (END) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were compared. END was defined as the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score increase≥2 points within 72 hours after stroke. Suspicious influencing factors leading to END were screened for multivariate logistic regression model analysis. Results: After PSM matching, among the 144 patients, 90 were male and 54 were female, aged (61.2±9.6) years. After matching, The hospital stay[M(Q1, Q3)] [9(7, 11)d vs 10(8, 13)d] in PCSK9 and NIHSS score at discharge [2(1, 3) vs 3(1, 4) points] were significantly different from those in the control group (all P<0.05). In addition, the incidence of END was reduced in the PCSK9 inhibitor group [12.5%(9/72) vs 31.9%(23/72),P<0.05]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis found that C-reactive protein (CRP)(OR=1.119,95%CI: 1.010-1.240, P<0.05) and PCSK9 inhibitor (OR=0.298, 95%CI: 0.117-0.755, P<0.05) were factors associated with the development of END. Conclusion: The use of PCSK9 inhibitors in the treatment of patients with BAD can reduce the incidence of END.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) We previously reported disease outcomes on patients treated with moderately hypofractionated salvage RT (65-70 Gy in 26-28 fractions using imaging guided IMRT) with >13 years of follow-up. The rate of all late surgical/radiation/disease related grade 3-5 toxicities was 27%, which were documented at a median of 8.7 years after the end of radiation. Here we performed an analysis to attempt to identify factors associated with these toxicities. MATERIALS/METHODS A total of 161 patients were analyzed; 44 patients experienced 58 late grade ≥3 toxicities. These were analyzed in several groups which included: all (n = 44), GU (n = 40), GU excluding incontinence (n = 35), stricture/fistula related (n = 28), hematuria related (n = 7), and grade 4 stricture/fistula related (n = 8). We investigated patient factors (age, preRT IPSS), surgical factors (clip volume, approach, margin status), and disease factors (stage, Gleason group, PSA nadir, preRT PSA, surgery to RT time). Surgical clip volume was contoured on CT and recorded in cc. Significance was determined using Mann-Whitney U test for continuous variables and Fisher's Exact test for binary variables. RESULTS A higher volume of surgical clips in the prostate fossa was found to be significantly related to eventual grade ≥3 stricture/fistula related event (p = 0.05). The mean surgical clip volume was found to be 2.30 cc in those with a documented grade ≥3 stricture/fistula compared to 1.23 cc in those without. Patients with a positive margin had a 30.0% rate of grade ≥3 GU toxicity compared to 16.2% in those with a negative margin (p = 0.03). Surgical clip volume was not found to be significantly related to pathologic stage, nor to eventual biochemical failure (p = 0.799/0.897). A positive margin was associated with a lower rate of biochemical failure after salvage (p = 0.04). Grade 3 events were documented at a median of 7.7 years and grade 4 events at 12.0 years after the end of radiation. CONCLUSION Our previous study found a high rate of grade ≥3 toxicities at time points for which there is a paucity of data both in conventional and hypofractionated regimens, particularly in the era of modern surgical and radiation techniques. We also found late toxicities can occur with increasing severity for many years after salvage radiotherapy. This analysis suggests that margin positivity and volume of surgical clips might identify patients at higher risk for late grade ≥3 toxicities, although the etiologies of these toxicities, whether surgery or radiation-related, are uncertain.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Bulky tumors remain challenging to be treated. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is effective against radioresistant tumor cells and can induce immunogenic cell death (ICD) that leads to T-cell-mediated antitumor effects. Low-dose radiation (LDRT) can inflame the tumor microenvironment (TME) by recruiting T cells. We designed a novel radiotherapy technique (RT, ERT) whose dose distribution map resembles the "eclipse" by concurrently delivering LDRT to the whole tumor, meanwhile SBRT to only a part of the same tumor. This study examined the safety and efficacy of ERT to bulky lesions with PD-1 inhibitors in mice and patients. MATERIALS/METHODS In mice with CT26 colon or LLC1 lung bulky tumors (400 - 500 cm3), the whole tumor was irradiated by LDRT (2 Gy x 3), meanwhile the tumor center was irradiated by SBRT (10 Gy x 3); αPD-1 was given weekly. The dependence of therapeutic effects on CD8+ T cells was determined using depleting antibodies. Frequencies of CD8+ T cells and M1 macrophages (Mφ) were determined by flow cytometry. Multiplex Immunohistochemistry (mIHC) was applied to analyze the number and the location of CD8+ T cells and their subpopulations, as well as the phospho-eIF2α level (the ICD marker) of tumor cells in TME. Patients with advanced lung or liver bulky tumors who failed standard treatment or with oncologic emergencies were treated. Kaplan-Meier method was applied to estimate patients' progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS ERT/αPD-1 is superior to SBRT/αPD-1 or LDRT/αPD-1 in controlling bulky tumors in both mouse models in a CD8+ T-cell dependent manner. In the CT26 model, ERT/αPD-1 resulted in complete tumor regression in 3/11 mice and induced more CD8+ T cells and M1 Mφ in TME compared to other groups. mIHC analysis showed that ERT/αPD-1 induced higher bulk, stem-like (TCF1+ TIM3- PD-1+), and more differentiated (TCF1- TIM3+ PD-1+) CD8+ T cells infiltration into the tumor center and periphery compared to other groups. Compared to untreated or LDRT-treated tumor centers, tumor centers irradiated with ERT or SBRT showed elevated phospho-eIF2α accompanied by higher dendritic cell infiltration. In total, 39 advanced cancer patients were treated with ERT/αPD-1 or plus chemotherapy. Radiation-induced pneumonitis occurred in 1 of 26 patients receiving thoracic ERT. There were two cases of grade III toxicity associated with PD-1 inhibitors. No toxicity above grade III was observed. The objective response rate was 38.5%. The median PFS was 5.6 months and median OS was not reached at a median follow-up of 11.7 months. CONCLUSION ERT/αPD-1 showed superior efficacy in controlling bulky tumor in two mouse models. The hybrid immuno-RT (ERT) combing PD-1 inhibitors was safe and effective in patients with bulky tumors. Further clinical trials in combination with bioimaging to identify the optimal SBRT target region for the bulky tumor are warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognostic nutritional index (PNI), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and lymph node ratio (LNR) are reportedly related to prognosis. The aim of this study was to elucidate the clinical importance of the LNR and hematological parameters in patients with high grade rectal neuroendocrine neoplasms (HG-RNENs) who were undergoing radical resection. METHODS We reviewed the medical records of patients with HG-RNENs from 17 large-scale medical centers in China (January 1, 2010-April 30, 2022). A nomogram was constructed by using a proportional hazard model. Bootstrap method was used to draw calibration plots to validate the reproducibility of the model. Concordance index (C-Index), decision curve analysis (DCA), and time-dependent area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (TD-AUC) analysis were used to compare the prognostic predictive power of the new model with American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) TNM staging and European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society (ENETS) TNM staging. RESULTS A total of 85 patients with HG-RNENs were enrolled in this study. In the 45 patients with HG-RNENs who underwent radical resection, PNI ≤ 49.13 (HR: 3.997, 95% CI: 1.379-11.581, P = 0.011), ALP > 100.0 U/L (HR: 3.051, 95% CI: 1.011-9.205, P = 0.048), and LNR > 0.40 (HR: 6.639, 95% CI: 2.224-19.817, P = 0.0007) were independent predictors of relapse-free survival. The calibration plots suggested that the nomogram constructed based on the three aforementioned factors had good reproducibility. The novel nomogram revealed a C-index superior to AJCC TNM staging (0.782 vs 0.712) and ENETS TNM staging (0.782 vs 0.657). Also, the new model performed better compared to AJCC TNM staging and ENETS TNM staging in DCA and TD-AUC analyses. CONCLUSIONS LNR, ALP, and PNI were independent prognostic factors in patients with HG-RNENs after radical resection, and the combined indicator had better predictive efficacy compared with AJCC TNM staging and ENETS TNM staging.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the predictive value of cerebrospinal fluid melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) combined with other related biomarkers in preoperative cognitive dysfunction of elderly patients. Methods: A total of 80 patients who underwent elective hip or knee replacement under intravertebral anesthesia in Chifeng Municipal Hospital, Inner Mongolia, from March to November 2022 were prospectively included, with 32 males and 48 females, and aged 65-85 (70.7±5.2) years old. According to the evaluation results of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), patients were divided into the preoperative cognitive dysfunction (n=23) and control (n=57) groups. The levels of MCH, amyloid-β 40 (Aβ40), amyloid-β 42 (Aβ42), and phosphorylated tau protein (p-tau) in cerebrospinal fluid were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of each biomarker separately or in combination for preoperative cognitive dysfunction. Spearman's rank correlation analysis was utilized to test the correlation between the level of each biomarker and MoCA scores. Results: The levels of MCH, Aβ40, Aβ42, p-tau, and Aβ42/p-tau in the preoperative cognitive dysfunction group were (35.53±5.94) μg/L, (39.21±9.18) ng/L, (221.83±43.17) ng/L, (42.64±9.74) ng/L, and 5.53±1.92, and the levels of these biomarkers in the control group were (28.74±4.90) μg/L, (36.37±7.87) ng/L, (280.23±45.67) ng/L, (35.00±9.27) ng/L, and 8.62±2.78, respectively. Compared with the control group, the levels of cerebrospinal fluid MCH and p-tau in the preoperative cognitive dysfunction group were significantly increased (all P<0.01), and the levels of Aβ42 and Aβ42/p-tau were significantly decreased (all P<0.001). MCH and Aβ42/p-tau provided higher predictive values. The area under the curve (AUC) of MCH and Aβ42/p-tau were 0.807 (95%CI: 0.703-0.911) and 0.842 (95%CI: 0.741-0.943), the sensitivity were 78.3% and 87.0%, and the specificity were 75.4% and 94.7%. MCH combined with Aβ42/p-tau have the higher AUC of 0.915 (95%CI: 0.837-0.992), the sensitivity (87.0%) and specificity (86.0%) were both high, which had a higher predictive value. The levels of cerebrospinal fluid MCH and p-tau were negatively correlated with MoCA score (r=-0.467, -0.321, all P<0.01), and the levels of Aβ42 and Aβ42/p-tau were positively correlated with MoCA score (r=0.480, 0.520, all P<0.001). Conclusion: The increase in cerebrospinal fluid MCH levels is associated with preoperative cognitive dysfunction in elderly patients. MCH combined with Aβ42/p-tau has the greatest predictive value.

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
BACKGROUND The isolation of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from the bloodstream can be used to detect and analyze somatic alterations in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), and multiple cfDNA-targeted sequencing panels are now commercially available for Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved biomarker indications to guide treatment. More recently, cfDNA fragmentation patterns have emerged as a tool to infer epigenomic and transcriptomic information. However, most of these analyses used whole-genome sequencing, which is insufficient to identify FDA-approved biomarker indications in a cost-effective manner. PATIENTS AND METHODS We used machine learning models of fragmentation patterns at the first coding exon in standard targeted cancer gene cfDNA sequencing panels to distinguish between cancer and non-cancer patients, as well as the specific tumor type and subtype. We assessed this approach in two independent cohorts: a published cohort from GRAIL (breast, lung, and prostate cancers, non-cancer, n = 198) and an institutional cohort from the University of Wisconsin (UW; breast, lung, prostate, bladder cancers, n = 320). Each cohort was split 70%/30% into training and validation sets. RESULTS In the UW cohort, training cross-validated accuracy was 82.1%, and accuracy in the independent validation cohort was 86.6% despite a median ctDNA fraction of only 0.06. In the GRAIL cohort, to assess how this approach performs in very low ctDNA fractions, training and independent validation were split based on ctDNA fraction. Training cross-validated accuracy was 80.6%, and accuracy in the independent validation cohort was 76.3%. In the validation cohort where the ctDNA fractions were all <0.05 and as low as 0.0003, the cancer versus non-cancer area under the curve was 0.99. CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate that sequencing from targeted cfDNA panels can be utilized to analyze fragmentation patterns to classify cancer types, dramatically expanding the potential capabilities of existing clinically used panels at minimal additional cost.

Abstract
Objective: To measure the crown conical degree of the remaining maxillary incisors in patients with congenital tooth agenesis, and to analyze the influence of different gene mutations on the crown conical degree of patients. Methods: Whole exome sequencing was performed on 85 patients with congenital tooth agenesis (50 males, 35 females, median age 19 years old) who visited the Department of Prosthodontics, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology from January 2019 to January 2023. The pathogenic gene was identified. The width of the crowns of the maxillary central and lateral incisors at the incisal 1/3 and gingival 1/3 were measured on the panoramic radiograph, and the ratio was defined as the crown conical degree. The smaller the ratio is, the more likely is the crown to be peg shaped teeth. The control group was matched by age and gender with 85 other patients with intact maxillary permanent incisors who were treated in the Department of Prosthodontics, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology from January 2019 to January 2023. The conical degree of the tooth agenesis group was compared with the control group by t-test, and the differences in the crown conical degree in different gene mutation groups were compared using one-way analysis of variance, and the multiple comparisons among gene groups were carried out using the LSD method. Results: Among the 85 tooth agenesis patients, the numbers of patients in each gene mutation group were 20 in ectodysplasin A (EDA) group, 8 in ectodysplasin A receptor (EDAR) group, 15 in wingless-type MMTV integration site family, member 10A (WNT10A) group, 16 in paired box 9 (PAX9) group, 10 in Msh homeobox 1 (MSX1) group, 10 in low-density lipoprotein receptor related protein 6 (LRP6) group, and 6 in bone morphogenetic protein4 (BMP4) group. The number of missing teeth were 1-27, median number 15 among the tooth agenesis patients. There was no significant difference in the conical degree between the left and right homonymous teeth in the congenital tooth agenesis group and the control group (P>0.05). The crown conical degree of maxillary central incisor and lateral incisor in the congenital missing teeth group (0.95±0.24, 0.90±0.22) was significantly smaller than that in the control group (1.12±0.09, 1.13±0.09) (t=-8.50, P<0.001; t=-11.47, P<0.001). In WNT10A mutants, the conical degree of lateral incisors (0.89±0.18) was less than that of central incisors (1.07±0.15)(t=3.68, P<0.001). The conical degree of central incisors and lateral incisors (0.70±0.23, 0.57±0.15) of EDA mutants was significantly lower than that in patients with other gene mutations (P>0.05). Conclusions: Compared with the normal control group, the remaining maxillary central and lateral incisors of the seven gene mutation groups of patients with congenital tooth agenesis all had different degrees of conical crown. Among them, the crown conical degree of maxillary central and lateral incisors of the EDA mutation was the most severe, and the WNT10A mutation affected the maxillary lateral incisors more specifically.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze whether the upper airway of patients with catathrenia has obstructive manifestations using nasal resistance, craniofacial, and upper airway imaging methods, which could benefit the exploration of the etiology and treatment options. Methods: From August 2012 to September 2019, a total of 57 patients with catathrenia in the Department of Orthodontics at Peking University Hospital of Stomatology were included in the study, including 22 males and 35 females, aged (31.1±10.9) years, with a body mass index of (21.7±2.7) kg/m2. All the patients were diagnosed by full-night polysomnography at the Sleep Division, Peking University People's Hospital, of which 10 patients were combined with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). The median groaning index of patients was 4.8 (1.8, 13) events/h. Nasal resistance and cone-beam CT were conducted on the patients, and measurements were performed on the craniofacial structures, upper airway, and surrounding soft tissues, compared with non-snoring normal occlusion individuals' references published by the same research team (144 college students recruited at Peking University and 100 non-snoring young adults with normal occlusion recruited at six universities in Beijing). Results: The total nasal resistance of patients with catathrenia was (0.26±0.08) Pa·cm-3·s-1. The patients had overall well-developed mandibular hard tissues. However, the patients were found with increased FH/BaN (steep anterior cranial base plane), increased MP/FH (forward rotation of the mandible); increased U1/NA and L1/MP (proclined upper and lower incisors). The sagittal diameter of the velopharynx [(19.2±4.5) mm] was significantly larger than the normal reference (t=8.44, P<0.001), while the sagittal diameter at the hypopharynx [(17.4±6.4) mm] was statistically smaller than the normal reference (t=-2.79, P=0.006). Catarhrenia patients combined with OSAHS presented longer soft palate, tongue, and lower hyoid bone than those with primary catathrenia. Conclusions: In patients with catathrenia, the overall craniofacial characteristics are well-developed skeletal structures, lower nasal resistance, proclined upper and lower incisors, wide upper sagittal development of the upper airway and but narrow hypopharynx. Groaning sounds might be related to the narrowing of the hypopharynx during sleep.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the efficacy of intravenous thrombolysis with tenecteplase (TNK) in the treatment of branch atheromatous disease (BAD). Methods: A total of 148 BAD patients hospitalized in the stroke center of Zhengzhou People's Hospital from January 2020 to March 2023 were retrospectively included. According to whether TNK was used for treatment, the patients were divided into the TNK group (52 cases) and the control group (96 cases). The propensity score matching (PSM) method was used to eliminate baseline differences between the two groups, and 46 pairs were successfully matched. Early neurological deterioration (END) was defined as an increase in the national Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores within 7 days of stroke≥2. The 90-day modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was used to compare the long-term efficacy between the two groups. A binary logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of clinical outcomes in patients with BAD. Results: Among the 92 patients, 62 were males and 30 were females, with an average age of (61.0±9.5) years. After PSM, there were statistically significant differences in NIHSS score at discharge [2 (0, 4) vs 4 (3, 8)] and length of hospital stay [9 (6, 13) d vs 11 (9, 14) d] (both P<0.05) between the two groups. The proportion of mRS 0-2 in TNK group was higher than that in the control group [82.6%(38/46) vs 60.8%(28/46)], while the proportion of END and mRS≥4 was lower than that in the control group [10.8%(5/46) vs 30.4%(14/46); 8.7%(4/46) vs 26.0%(12/46)], with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). The 90-day mortality in the control group was 2.2% (1/46), while no death was detected in the TNK group. Conclusion: Intravenous thrombolysis therapy with TNK can not only increase the proportion of 90-day mRS 0-2 in BAD patients, but also reduce the incidence of END.

Abstract
Digitization of phase-modulated carrier signals with a commercially available analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is a common task in many communication and sensor applications. ADCs deliver phase-modulated digital carrier signals, which are numerically demodulated in order to extract the relevant information. However, the limited dynamic ranges of available ADCs limit the carrier-to-noise ratio of carrier signals after digitization. Correspondingly, the resolution of the demodulated digital signal is degraded. We demonstrate a sampling method with a simple demodulation scheme for phase-modulated signals with a small modulation index. Our new scheme overcomes the limitation due to digital noise defined by the ADC. Through simulations and experiments, we provide evidence that our method can improve the resolution of the demodulated digital signal significantly, when the carrier-to-noise ratio of phase-modulated signals is limited by digital noise. We employ our sampling and demodulation scheme to solve the problem of a possible degradation of measurement resolution after digital demodulation in heterodyne interferometers measuring small vibration amplitudes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To characterize the paraspinal muscles of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients, and to further explore its etiology. METHODS Clinical records and paraspinal muscle biopsies at the apex vertebra region during posterior scoliosis correction surgery of 18 AIS were collected from November 2018 to August 2019. Following standardized processing of fresh muscle tissue biopsy, serial sections with conventional hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and histochemical and immunohistochemical (IHC) with antibody Dystrophin-1 (R-domain), Dystrophin-2 (C-terminal), Dystrophin-3 (N-terminal), Dystrophin-total, Myosin (fast), major histocompatibility complex 1 (MHC-1), CD4, CD8, CD20, and CD68 staining were obtained. Biopsy samples were grouped according to the subjects' median Cobb angle (Cobb angle ≥ 55° as severe AIS group and Cobb angle < 55° as mild AIS group) and Nash-Moe's classification respectively, and the corresponding pathological changes were compared between the groups statistically. RESULTS Among the 18 AIS patients, 8 were in the severe AIS group (Cobb angle ≥55°) and 10 in the mild AIS group (Cobb angle < 55°). Both severe and mild AIS groups presented various of atrophy and degeneration of paraspinal muscles, varying degrees and staining patterns of immune-expression of Dystrophin-3 loss, especially Dystrophin-2 loss in severe AIS group with significant differences, as well as among the Nash-Moe classification subgroups. Besides, infiltration of CD4+ and CD8+ cells in the paraspinal muscles and tendons was observed in all the patients while CD20+ cells were null. The expression of MHC-1 on myolemma was present in some muscle fibers. CONCLUSION The histologic of paraspinal muscle biopsy in AIS had similar characteristic changes, the expression of Dystrophin protein was significantly reduced and correlated with the severity of scoliosis, suggesting that Dystrophin protein dysfunctions might contribute to the development of scoliosis. Meanwhile, the inflammatory changes of AIS were mainly manifested by T cell infiltration, and there seemed to be a certain correlation between inflammatory cell infiltration, MHC-1 expression and abnormal expression of Dystrophin. Further research along the lines of this result may open up new ideas for the diagnosis of scoliosis and the treatment of paraspinal myopathy.

Abstract
Immediate implant placement has the advantages of shortening the operation time, reducing the treatment cycle and cost. At present, this technology has been used widely, but the indications of immediate implantation are still limited. Here, a novel type of root analog implant (RAI) was manufactured by selective laser melting technology to address the limitation. Under optimized condition, RAIs were printed with the internal density of 99.73% and the uniform surface roughness of 11 μm (Sa). Besides, the deviation between RAI specimen and design models is controlled within 0.15 mm after optimizing scanning parameters. The substrate printed could promote human bone marrow stromal cell proliferation, spreading, and osteogenic differentiation. The bone-implant contact (BIC, 75% ± 7%) and bone volume/total volume (BV/TV, 74% ± 7%) of RAIs were significantly higher than that of conventional implants (BIC, 66% ± 5%; BV/TV, 62% ± 5%) in in vivo experiments. Further, customized abutments were designed for the RAIs, improving the masticatory ability of the beagle dogs after crown restoration. This study aims to design a personalized 2-stage RAI with compact structure and uniform roughness, in order to achieve better fracture resistance, initial osseointegration efficiency, and dispersed stress in immediate implantation. It provides a certain guiding value for standardizing the manufacture and clinical application of RAI in immediate implantation.

Abstract
Objective: To describe the distribution characteristics of hyperlipidemia in adult twins in the Chinese National Twin Registry (CNTR) and explore the effect of genetic and environmental factors on hyperlipidemia. Methods: Twins recruited from the CNTR in 11 project areas across China were included in the study. A total of 69 130 (34 565 pairs) of adult twins with complete information on hyperlipidemia were selected for analysis. The random effect model was used to characterize the population and regional distribution of hyperlipidemia among twins. The concordance rates of hyperlipidemia were calculated in monozygotic twins (MZ) and dizygotic twins (DZ), respectively, to estimate the heritability. Results: The age of all participants was (34.2±12.4) years. This study's prevalence of hyperlipidemia was 1.3% (895/69 130). Twin pairs who were men, older, living in urban areas, married,had junior college degree or above, overweight, obese, insufficient physical activity, current smokers, ex-smokers, current drinkers, and ex-drinkers had a higher prevalence of hyperlipidemia (P<0.05). In within-pair analysis, the concordance rate of hyperlipidemia was 29.1% (118/405) in MZ and 18.1% (57/315) in DZ, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Stratified by gender, age, and region, the concordance rate of hyperlipidemia in MZ was still higher than that in DZ. Further, in within-same-sex twin pair analyses, the heritability of hyperlipidemia was 13.04% (95%CI: 2.61%-23.47%) in the northern group and 18.59% (95%CI: 4.43%-32.74%) in the female group, respectively. Conclusions: Adult twins were included in this study and were found to have a lower prevalence of hyperlipidemia than in the general population study, with population and regional differences. Genetic factors influence hyperlipidemia, but the genetic effect may vary with gender and area.

Abstract
Objective: To describe the distribution characteristics of hypertension among adult twins in the Chinese National Twin Registry (CNTR) and to provide clues for exploring the role of genetic and environmental factors on hypertension. Methods: A total of 69 220 (34 610 pairs) of twins aged 18 and above with hypertension information were selected from CNTR registered from 2010 to 2018. Random effect models were used to describe the population and regional distribution of hypertension in twins. To estimate the heritability, the concordance rates of hypertension were calculated and compared between monozygotic twins (MZ) and dizygotic twins (DZ). Results: The age of all participants was (34.1±12.4) years. The overall self-reported prevalence of hypertension was 3.8%(2 610/69 220). Twin pairs who were older, living in urban areas, married, overweight or obese, current smokers or ex-smokers, and current drinkers or abstainers had a higher self-reported prevalence of hypertension (P<0.05). Analysis within the same-sex twin pairs found that the concordance rate of hypertension was 43.2% in MZ and 27.0% in DZ, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.001). The heritability of hypertension was 22.1% (95%CI: 16.3%- 28.0%). Stratified by gender, age, and region, the concordance rate of hypertension in MZ was still higher than that in DZ. The heritability of hypertension was higher in female participants. Conclusions: There were differences in the distribution of hypertension among twins with different demographic and regional characteristics. It is indicated that genetic factors play a crucial role in hypertension in different genders, ages, and regions, while the magnitude of genetic effects may vary.

Abstract
Bacterial blight (BB) is currently considered one of the most serious rice diseases and is caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). Numerous studies have shown that breeding resistant rice varieties is one of the most effective methods to prevent BB, and it is important to identify and isolate more BB resistance (R) genes from different rice resources. Using a map-based approach, we identified a new QTL/gene, Xa43(t), from ZhangPu wild rice, which was highly resistant to the BB isolate PX099. We performed bulked segregant analysis combined with candidate gene prediction to identify the candidate gene. The Xa43(t) gene was narrowed down to a 29-kb region containing four putative genes. More importantly, the candidate gene Xa43(t) did not affect the main agronomic traits of rice. We also identified a widely applicable molecular marker, namely Inde1-18, which co-segregates with the Xa43(t) gene. The Xa43(t) gene is a new broad-spectrum BB resistance gene without identified alleles and has good application prospects for rice disease resistance breeding.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the improvement in quality of life (QoL) after implantation of leadless pacemakers (L-PM) with that of conventional pacemakers (C-PM) in patients with slow-onset arrhythmias. Methods: A total of 112 patients who received pacemaker implantation for the first time at Beijing Anzhen Hospital from January 2020 to July 2021 were selected, including 50 leadless pacemakers (L-PM) and 62 conventional pacemakers (C-PM). Clinical baseline data were collected, pacemaker-related complications and SF-36 scores were recorded and followed up at 1, 3, and 12 months post-operatively; SF-36 questionnaires and additional questionnaires were completed to compare the quality of life of the 2 groups; and factors associated with the change in QoL from baseline to 1, 3 and 12 months post-operatively were analyzed using multiple linear regression models. Results: The age of the 112 patients was (70.3±10.5) years, and 69 patients (61.6%) were male. The age of patients with L-PM and C-PM was (75.8±8.5) years and (67.5±10.4) years, respectively (P=0.004). In the L-PM group, 50 patients completed 1-, 3-, and 12-month follow-up. In the C-PM group, 62 patients completed the 1-month and 3-month follow-up, and 60 completed the 12-month follow-up. The C-PM group had a higher incidence of discomfort in the surgical area, impact of daily activities for the discomfort in the surgical area, and concern about heart or overall condition than the L-PM group on the additional questionnaire (all P values<0.05). After adjusting for age and SF-36 scores at baseline, at 12th month of follow-up, patients implanted with C-PM had lower values for quality of life PF, RP, SF, RE, and MH scores compared to patients implanted with L-PM, with beta values (95%CI) of -24.500 (-30.010--18.981), -27.118 (-32.997--21.239), -8.085 (-12.536--3.633), -4.839 (-9.437--0.241), -12.430 (-18.558--6.301), respectively (all P values<0.05). Conclusions: L-PM is associated with better QoL in slow arrhythmias patients, and patients who received L-PM reported less activity limitations due to surgical discomfort and less emotional distress.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in carcinogenesis. However, the effect of lncRNA on chemoresistance and RNA alternative splicing remains largely unknown. In this study, we identified a novel lncRNA, CACClnc, which was upregulated and associated with chemoresistance and poor prognosis in colorectal cancer (CRC). CACClnc promoted CRC resistance to chemotherapy via promoting DNA repair and enhancing homologous recombination in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, CACClnc specifically bound to Y-box binding protein 1 (YB1, a splicing factor) and U2AF65 (a subunit of U2AF splicing factor), promoting the interaction between YB1 and U2AF65, and then modulated alternative splicing (AS) of RAD51 mRNA, and consequently altered CRC cell biology. In addition, expression of exosomal CACClnc in peripheral plasma of CRC patients can effectively predict the chemotherapy effect of patients before treatment. Thus, measuring and targeting CACClnc and its associated pathway could yield valuable insight into clinical management and might ameliorate CRC patients' outcomes.

Abstract
Low temperatures limit the geographic distribution and yield of plants. Hormones play an important role in coordinating the growth and development of plants and their tolerance to low temperatures. However, the mechanisms by which hormones affect plant resistance to extreme cold stress in the natural environment are still unclear. In this study, two winter wheat varieties with different cold resistances, Dn1 and J22, were used to conduct targeted plant hormone metabolome analysis on the tillering nodes of winter wheat at 5 °C, -10 °C and -25 °C using an LC-ESI-MS/MS system. We screened 39 hormones from 88 plant hormone metabolites and constructed a partial regulatory network of auxin, jasmonic acid and cytokinin. GO analysis and enrichment of KEGG pathways in different metabolites showed that the 'plant hormone signal transduction' pathway was the most common. Our study showed that extreme low temperature increased the most levels of auxin, cytokinin and salicylic acid, and decreased levels of jasmonic acid and abscisic acid, and that levels of auxin, jasmonic acid and cytokinin in Dn1 were higher than those in J22. These changes in hormone levels were associated with changes in gene expression in synthesis, catabolism, transport and signal transduction pathways. These results differ from the previous hormone regulation mechanisms, which were mostly obtained at 4 °C. Our results provide a basis for further understanding the molecular mechanisms by which plant endogenous hormones regulate plant freezing stress tolerance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)-based therapy for perianal fistulizing Crohn's disease (pfCD) has been extensively studies in the past decade. Its efficacy and safety had been preliminarily confirmed in some phase 2 or phase 3 clinical trials. This meta-analysis is performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of MSCs-based therapy for pfCD. METHODS Electronic databases (Pubmed, Cochrane Library, Embase) were searched for studies that reported the efficacy and safety of MSCs. And RevMan were used to assess the efficacy and safety. RESULTS After screening, 5 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were included in this meta-analysis. RevMan 5.4 for meta-analysis showed that: [Efficacy] Patients had definite remission after MSCs treatment, with an odds ratio (OR) of 2.06 (P < .0001, 95%CI 1.46, 2.89) vs controls. [Safety] The incidence of the most frequently reported TEAEs (treatment-emergent adverse events, TEAEs), perianal abscess and proctalgia, did not significantly increase due to the use of MSCs, with an OR of 1.07 in perianal abscess (P = .87, 95%CI 0.67, 1.72) vs controls, and an OR of 1.10 in proctalgia (P = .47, 95%CI 0.63, 1.92) vs controls. CONCLUSIONS MSCs seem to be an effective and safe therapy for pfCD. MSCs based therapy has the potential to be used in combination with traditional therapies.

Abstract
Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) is important for safe, rapid and effective risk assessment of chemicals. In this study, two QSAR models were established with 1230 chemicals to predict toxicity towards Tetrahymena pyriformis using multiple linear regression (MLR) method. The topological(T)-QSAR model was developed by using topological-norm descriptors generated from the topological structure, and the spatial(S)-QSAR model were built with spatial-norm descriptors obtained from the three-dimensional structure of molecules and topological-norm descriptors. The r2training and r2test are 0.8304 and 0.8338 for the T-QSAR model, and 0.8485 and 0.8585 for the S-QSAR model, which means that T-QSAR model and S-QSAR model can be used to predict toxicity quickly and accurately. In addition, we also conducted validation on the developed models. Satisfying validation results and statistical parameters demonstrated that QSAR models based on the topological-norm descriptors and spatial-norm descriptors proposed in this paper could be further utilized to estimate the toxicity of chemicals towards Tetrahymena pyriformis.

Abstract
Central venous lesion is a difficult problem in the vascular access complications of hemodialysis, which can cause serious clinical symptoms and affect the quality of hemodialysis and life of patients. We established arteriovenous fistula of the contralateral graft blood vessel with the used vein on the diseased side of the central vein of the patient. The arteriovenous fistula of the graft blood vessel was successfully punctured and hemodialysis was performed 2 weeks later. In this way, we not only solved the problem of venous hypertension and subsequent vascular access in the patient, but also reserved more vascular resources.

Abstract
The fungal microbiota is an important component of the complex multikingdom microbial community colonizing the mammalian gastrointestinal tract and has an important role in immune regulation. However, how fungi regulate inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is poorly understood. This study found that intestinal fungi regulate immune responses in IBD. Antibiotic-mediated depletion of fungi facilitated the development of IBD. Fungi greatly enhanced oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) by enhancing glutaminolysis. Mechanistically, we found that fungi could activate the dectin-1-Syk- NF-κB signaling pathway to promote the expression of key enzymes and transporters involved in glutaminolysis. In summary, our findings reveal that fungal interactions in the human gut could be a promising therapeutic target for IBD.

Abstract
Background Modification of lifestyle-related risk factors for multiple sclerosis (MS) has been associated with improved health outcomes when compared with standard medical management alone. Based on an existing lifestyle modification program offered as a residential workshop, the MS Online Course (MSOC) was developed to translate the workshop into an online intervention. We performed a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT), to assess the feasibility concepts of accessibility, learnability and desirability through quantitative and qualitative analyzes. In the present study, we performed additional qualitative analyzes to explore participants' motivations, expectations, and experiences of the MSOC. This study aims to complement prior feasibility analyzes and inform recruitment strategies and course content redevelopment so that its effectiveness may be assessed by examining behavior change and health outcomes in a future larger RCT. Methods Participants were recruited via online advertisements and randomized to either: the standard care course, containing material sourced from public facing MS websites; or the intervention course, based on an evidence-based lifestyle modification program for people with MS. Course completers were invited to participate in semi-structured interviews. Within a qualitative paradigm, reflexive thematic analysis of interviews was undertaken. Results Of 31 eligible participants, 17 completed the MSOC and 14 agreed to be interviewed. Four themes were identified in this analysis: (1) "Wanting to help others" (helping through volunteering, contributing to knowledge base, spreading the word; (2) "Seeking knowledge" (confirmation of existing knowledge; obtaining new knowledge, relevant, credible information); (3) "Doing what I can to help myself" (understanding lifestyle modification, changing my lifestyle, remaining well); and (4) "Changing attitudes" (finding positivity, feeling more confident and in control). Conclusions Participants were motivated to help others through research, help themselves by improving knowledge and to find ways to better manage their MS. Expectations included obtaining credible, reliable information, to substantiate existing knowledge, and to further understand lifestyle modification. Participants' experiences included confirmation of and obtaining new knowledge, and early implementation of modified lifestyle behaviors. These insights surrounding participants' motivations, expectations and experiences will assist in recruitment strategies, course redevelopment and outcome measures for the future RCT to examine the effectiveness of the MSOC.

Abstract
Objective: To study the effect of circ-WHSC1 on the growth, metastasis and radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells and its molecular mechanism. Methods: Cancerous tissues and adjacent tissues were collected from 23 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression levels of circ-WHSC1, miR-338-3p, and ELAVL1 mRNA. Western blot was used to detect the expression of ELAVL1 protein. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells 5-8F and SUNE1 were divided into si-NC group, si-circ-WHSC1 group, pCD5-ciR group, circ-WHSC1 group, anti-miR-NC group, anti-miR-338-3p group, miR-NC group, miR-338-3p group, si-circ-WHSC1+ anti-miR-NC group, si-circ-WHSC1+ anti-miR-338-3p group, miR-338-3p+ pcDNA group, miR-338-3p+ ELAVL1 group. Tetramethylazolium salt colorimetric method (MTT) was used to detect cell viability. Clone formation test was used to detect cell clone formation and cell radiosensitivity. Flow cytometry was used to detect cell apoptosis. Transwell was used to detect cell migration and invasion. Dual luciferase assay was used to detect the targeting relationship between circ-WHSC1 and miR-338-3p, miR-338-3p and ELAVL1. The SUNE1 cells stably transfected with sh-circ-WHSC1 were injected into nude mice and irradiated with radiation, and then the tumor volume and weight of mice were detected. Results: The expressions of circ-WHSC1 (1.57±0.94 vs 3.78±1.18, 1.00±0.10 vs 1.64±0.14/2.00±0.21/2.81±0.26/3.36±0.34) and ELAVL1 (1.28±0.74 vs 3.36±0.77, 1.00±0.08 vs 2.51±0.19/3.27±0.27) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and cells were increased, and the expression of miR-338-3p (3.13±0.96 vs 1.37±0.98, 1.00±0.08 vs 0.48±0.08/0.38±0.07) was decreased (P<0.05). After knockdown of circ-WHSC1, the activity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells was decreased [(100.00±8.00)% vs (51.33±8.62)%, (100.00±10.10)% vs (41.02±7.31)%], the number of clone-forming cells was decreased (101.00±8.54 vs 50.33±8.02, 114.00±14.10 vs 42.33±10.01), the rate of apoptosis was increased [(5.37±1.20)% vs (18.3±1.01)%, (6.5±1.18)% vs (22.43±1.40)%], and the numbers of migration (136.00±13.00 vs 72.33±9.50, 154.00±14.10 vs 62.67±11.50) and invasion (113.67±11.59 vs 60.67±9.07, 124.33±15.57 vs 50.33±9.01) were decreased; after different doses of radiation, the cell survival score was decreased (0.23±0.04 vs 0.06±0.01, 0.32±0.07 vs 0.05±0.02) (P<0.05). Circ-WHSC1 targeted and negatively regulated miR-338-3p. Inhibition of miR-338-3p affected the effect of knockdown of circ-WHSC1 on the proliferation, apoptosis, migration, invasion and radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells. MiR-338-3p targeted and negatively regulated ELAVL1; ELAVL1 overexpression affected the effects of miR-338-3p on the proliferation, apoptosis, migration, invasion and radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells. After the cells stably transfected with sh-circ-WHSC1 were injected into nude mice, the tumor volume [(884.67±95.63)mm(3) vs (487.33±76.51)mm(3)] and weight [(899.01±88.54)mg vs (558.67±75.04) mg] of the nude mice were reduced; after further irradiation, the tumor volume [(395.00±73.50)mm(3) vs 243.13±42.51)mm(3)] and weight[ (452.33±67.30)mg vs (211.09±57.51)mg] of the nude mice were reduced (P<0.05). Circ-WHSC1 regulated the expression of ELAVL1 by targeting miR-382. Conclusion: Knockdown of circ-WHSC1 can inhibit the growth and metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells by targeting miR-338-3p/ELAVL1 axis, and enhances the radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells.

Abstract
To construct a non-communicable disease system recommended by WHO, develop the key techniques and promote their applications, obtain the main health indicators and understand the prevalence of chronic diseases, and provide support for the prevention, control and research of chronic diseases. Based on factor analysis, K-means clustering and multi-cluster random sampling, 30 typical sampling areas at provincial level were designed and constructed; By referring to WHO's Non-communicable Disease Surveillance Framework and the American behavioral risk factor sampling and questionnaire and combined with China's actual needs, a comprehensive surveillance system for chronic diseases, covering morbidity and mortality, risk factor exposure and community management and control of chronic diseases, was established, a "5+12+1" quality control system for surveillance data collection, management, analysis and feedback was formed and a three-level surveillance information management platform and information technology construction standards in the province were established, resulting the integration of life registration, chronic disease case reporting and community chronic disease management. Using these key techniques, we have obtained high-quality surveillance data of the whole province, produced the main health indicators, carried out research of chronic diseases, and analyze the prevalence and changing trend of the main chronic diseases and related risk factors to boost the government's practical projects for the reform of the people's livelihood and facilitate the construction of "Healthy Zhejiang". The successful experiences and key techniques have been applied in the construction of chronic disease surveillance system in some provinces in China.

Abstract
Background Anastomotic leakage (AL) is one of most severe postoperative complications following low anterior resection (LAR) for rectal cancer, and has an adverse impact on postoperative recovery. The occurence of AL is associated with several factors, while few studies explored the role of intracorporeal barbed suture reinforcement in it. Methods Consecutive cases underwent laparoscopic LAR for rectal cancer from Mar. 2018 to Feb. 2021 in our center were retrospectively collected. Cases were classified into the intracorporeal barbed suture reinforcement group and the control group according to whether performing intracorporeal reinforcement with barbed suture, and AL incidences were compared between two groups. Propensity score matching (PSM) was then performed based on identified risk factors to reduce biases from covariates between two groups. AL incidences in the matched cohort were compared. Results A total of 292 cases entered into the study, and AL incidences were significantly lower in the intracorporeal barbed suture reinforcement group compared with the control group (10.00% vs 2.82%, P = 0.024). Sex, BMI, preoperative adjuvant chemoradiotherapy and anastomotic level were chose for PSM analyses based on previous studies. In the matched cohort, the AL incidences were still significantly lower in the intracorporeal barbed suture reinforcement group (10.57% vs 2.44%, SD = 0.334). Conclusions Intracorporeal barbed suture reinforcement is associated with low AL incidences after laparoscopic LAR for rectal cancer, which is a potential procedure for reducing AL and worthy of application clinically.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To show that zero-opioid discharges after both open and robotic cystectomy are feasible and to examine the impact of zero-opioid discharges on patient interaction with the physician's office. MATERIALS AND METHODS 107 patients who underwent either open or robotic radical cystectomy from March 1, 2020 to December 30, 2020 were identified. Patient demographics, perioperative data, and 30 day pain related outcomes including phone calls, office visits, requests for pain medication, emergency department visits, and readmissions were abstracted from the chart. We then examined variables associated with a zero-opioid discharge. RESULTS Thirty-two patients were discharged with an opioid prescription (Median Oral Morphine Equivalents Prescribed = 90) and seventy-five were discharged without an opioid prescription. On regression analysis, age (OR 1.07, 95% CI [1.02-1.12]) and pathology (OR 0.36, 95% CI[0.14-0.9]) remained significantly associated with postoperative opioid prescriptions. There were no differences in the percent of patients presenting to the emergency department, being readmitted, calling the office, calling the office regarding pain, or requesting opioid prescriptions within thirty days of discharge, or the number of post-operative office visits (p> 0.05 for all). CONCLUSIONS Patients can safely be discharged home without opioids following cystectomy, regardless of robotic or open approach. Age and pathology are predictors of the need for an opioid prescription on discharge. These patients did not have increased follow-up visits, phone calls, or requests for pain medication.

Abstract
We employed pandemic treatment strategies that we developed at the beginning of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, and it was not clear whether any adverse results were associated with our strategies. Therefore, we carried out a retrospective study to compare our pandemic treatment strategies with prepandemic protocols to determine whether the strategies used during the high-risk period of COVID-19 were appropriate. The observation period was September 2019 to February 2020. Patients hospitalized from December 2019 to February 2020 were included as an experimental group, and individuals hospitalized from September 2019 to November 2019 were included as a control group. All non-small cell lung cancer patients hospitalized during the observation period were included except for pediatric and obstetric patients, patients younger than 18 years old, and patients admitted only for routine follow-up examinations. Treatment strategies were evaluated based on the prognosis of the different treatment methods, including surgical and nonsurgical treatments and discontinuation of therapy. Survival curves were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Cox regression analysis was used for multivariate analysis of risk factors for progress-free survival. Propensity score matching was used for clinical characteristics to adjust for selection bias. Therapy discontinuation in the experimental group was significantly higher than in the control group (P < .001). The differences in cancer progression and the number of deaths between the 2 groups were not significant (P = .38 and .13, respectively). For late-stage patients, there were significant differences in nonsurgical treatment and discontinued therapy (P < .001 and < .001, respectively) between the 2 groups, while the cancer progression and death toll differences were not significant (P = .20 and .20, respectively). For early-stage patients, the differences in surgical treatment, discontinued therapy, cancer progression, and death toll were not significant (P = .24, 0.24, 0.61, and 0.49, respectively) between the 2 groups. Multivariate analysis revealed that temporary discontinuation of therapy did not predict poor progress-free survival independently (hazard ratio = 1.007, 95% confidence interval: 0.653-1.552, P = .98). For patients in geographical regions with a high risk for COVID-19 infections, temporarily suspending treatment for late-stage non-small cell lung cancer patients is not likely to significantly impact their prognosis if they can return to treatment within 3 months of discontinuation.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the association between self-reported gingival bleeding and prevalent hypertension among adults in Zhejiang with a cross-sectional study. Methods: After excluding participants with self-reported, physician-diagnosed heart diseases, stroke, diabetes, cancer, and those who never or rarely brush their teeth at baseline study, 48 625 participants aged 30-79 in the China Kadoorie Biobank (CKB) study from Tongxiang, Zhejiang were included for the final analysis. Three multivariable logistic regression models were used to estimate the odds ratios (ORs) for the associations of self-reported gingival bleeding with prevalent hypertension. Results: The mean age of women was (51.2±9.2) years, and 42.9% of participants had prevalent hypertension. The percentage of self-reported frequent gingival bleeding was 6.56% (95%CI: 6.38%-6.75%), significantly higher among women (8.08%, 95%CI: 7.82%-8.35%) than among men (4.36%, 95%CI: 4.12%-4.60%) (P<0.001). After adjusting for socio-demographic factors, behavioral lifestyle, sleep duration, BMI, waist circumference, snoring, in comparison with men whose gingivae never or rarely bleed while brushing teeth, the odds ratio (95%CI) of hypertension for those with occasional, and frequent gingival bleeding were 1.04 (0.96-1.12) and 1.18 (1.02-1.37), respectively (trend P =0.038). The corresponding figures for women were 0.96 (0.91-1.02) and 0.95 (0.86-1.05), respectively (trend P=0.344). Conclusion: Frequent gingival bleeding was positively associated with prevalent hypertension among men.

Abstract
Background: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a well-known risk factor for developing colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CAC). However, the molecular mechanism of the pathogenesis of CAC remains unclear. This study aimed to explore candidate genes involved in the tumorigenesis of CAC. Methods: GSE75214 and the Cancer Genome Atlas Program (TCGA) dataset were used to analyze the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in UC and colorectal cancer (CRC), respectively. Survival-hub genes were identified from these DEGs by sequentially constructing a protein–protein interaction network, selecting hub genes, and conducting survival analysis. Regulatory signatures were also predicted on these genes through the online database. Apcmin/+ and UC mice models were used to validate the expression of the above-predicted molecules. Gene set enrichment analysis and CIBERSORT were performed to explore the enriched molecular pathways and associated tissue-infiltrating immune cells of genes. Results: Here, 376 common DEGs were identified from the GSE75214 and TCGA datasets. Through survival-hub gene selection and in vivo experiments, we confirmed that CXCL10 and CXCL11 were significantly upregulated in UC and CRC. We also proved that miR-34a-5p and miR-203a-5p were potential regulators of CXCL10 and CXCL11. Meanwhile, CXCL10 and CXCL11 may activate the JAK–STAT signaling pathway via the interaction with cytokine receptors in UC. Furthermore, CXCL10 and CXCL11 were positively associated with the tissue infiltration of proinflammatory M1 macrophages in UC and CRC. Conclusion: CXCL10 and CXCL11 may act as the candidate genes involved in the tumorigenesis of CAC and potential therapeutic targets to prevent the development of CAC from UC.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the heritability of body mass index (BMI) and coronary heart disease (CHD), and to explore whether genetic factors can explain their correlation. Methods: Participants were from 11 provinces/municipalities reqistered in the Chinese National Twin Registry (CNTR) from 2010 to 2018. Participants data were collected from face-to-face questionnaire survey. Bivariate structure equation model was used to estimate the heritability and the genetic correlation of BMI and CHD. Results: A total of 20 340 pairs of same-sex twins aged ≥25 years were included in this study. After adjusting for age and gender, the heritability of BMI and CHD was 0.52 (95%CI: 0.49-0.55) and 0.76 (95%CI: 0.69-0.81), respectively. Further, a genetic correlation was identified between BMI and CHD (rA=0.10, 95%CI:0.02-0.17). Conclusion: In Chinese adult twin population, BMI and CHD are affected by genetic factors, and their correlation can be attributed to the common genetic basis.

Abstract
Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background The Essential Frailty Toolset (EFT) is a valid measurement of frailty in people with heart valve disease. COVID-19 has prompted the transition to virtual health consultations and necessitates the validation of the virtual assessment of frailty. Methods We conducted a prospective observational cohort study to compare the measurement of EFT in person and virtual format within a maximum 2-week window of repeated measurement. The weighted Kappa tests was used to measure the agreement of EFT scores between assessments; we explored the effect of the sequence of measurement using the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel statistic to test the general association between the timing of measurement and differences of EFT score. Results We recruited a sample of 49 patients, with a mean age of 81 ± 7 years, including 29 men (59.2%); the primary valvular heart diseases were aortic stenosis (n=40, 81.6%), mitral regurgitation (n=2, 4.1%) and tricuspid regurgitation (n=7, 14.3%). The virtual measurement of frailty was conducted using a standardised protocol. The platform for virtual connection selected by patients was FaceTime (n=20, 40.8%) and Zoom (n=29, 59.2%); the median (IQR) number of days between the in-person and the virtual assessment was 5 (3,10). The weighted Kappa estimate was 0.69 (95% CI 0.55, 0.82), illustrating a strong agreement between the separate scores obtained. The test for the general association was non-significant (p=0.82), indicating a lack of evidence for detecting an association between EFT scores and chronological order of assessment. Conclusion The EFT can be reliably measured virtual in older patients with valvular heart disease to inform clinical care.

Background
We examined the barriers of early nurse-led mobilisation after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) to support safe next-day discharge home.
Methods
We conducted a prospective observational cohort study of patients treated in 2019-2021 using a standardised post-procedure nursing care standard to promote mobilisation in 4 to 6 hours after TAVI. Results are presented as mean (standard deviation) for continuous variables and as number (percentage) for categorical data; student t test was used to compare continuous variables and χ2 and Fisher exact tests were used to compare categorical variables. All analyses were performed in SAS version 9.4 (SAS Institute).
Results
The cohort included a convenience sample of 139 patients (64 women, 46%) mean age 82.5±6.7 years, NYHA III/IV 72 (51.8%), prior pacemaker 18 (13%), and prior SAVR 11 (7.9%). Patients were treated under local anaesthesia only (n=29, 20.9%) or conscious sedation (n=106, 76.3%) with a balloon expandable device (n=134, 96.4%) in a cardiac catheterisation laboratory (n=111, 79.9%) or hybrid operating room (n=28, 25.2%), and early recovery in cardiac telemetry (n=101, 72.7%) or critical care unit (n=38, 27.3%). Early mobilisation was achieved in 113 patients (81.3%: 4 hours: n=100, 71.9%, 4-6 hours: n=13, 9.4%); there were no significant (p≤0.05) differences in baseline characteristics between patients with early vs. late mobilisation; the primary reasons for delayed mobilisation included monitoring and/or managing cardiac conduction issues (n=6), vascular access hemostasis (n=6) and neurological status (n=4), patient preference or other self-reported issue (n=5) and nursing workload (n=5). In patients who achieved early mobilisation, 81.4% were discharge on post-operative day 1 and 86.3% by day 2, with 99.1% returning directly home. There was no significant difference in 30-day readmission between the two groups.
Conclusions
Early nurse-led protocol-driven mobilisation is safe and effective to facilitate rapid reconditioning and safe transition home after uncomplicated TAVI. Research is needed to better understand patient and systems-level enablers to improve standardisation of practice.
