Abstract
With the advancements in flexible materials and information technology, flexible sensors are becoming increasingly pervasive in various aspects of life and production. They hold immense potential for further development in areas such as motion detection, electronic skin, soft robots, and wearable devices. Aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) was used as the raw material, while a diisocyanate reagent served as the cross-linking agent for the polymerization reaction, which involved the introduction of ureido groups, containing N-H and C=O bonds, into the long siloxane chain. The dynamic hydrogen bonding between the clusters completes the self-healing of the material. Using 1-[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]urea as a grafting agent, the urea groups are introduced into graphene oxide and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as conductive fillers. Subsequently, a flexible polymer is used as the substrate to prepare conductive flexible self-healing composites. By controlling the amount of conductive fillers, flexible strain materials with varying sensitivities are obtained. Design the structure of the flexible strain sensor using three-dimensional (3D) modeling software with deposition printing method.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease raising the risks of tooth-supporting structures destruction and even tooth loss. The way to reconstruct periodontal bone tissues in inflammatory microenvironment has been long in demand for periodontitis treatment. In this study, the lycium barbarum glycopeptide (LbGP) loaded gelatin-based scaffolds were fabricated for periodontitis treatment. Gelatin microspheres with suitable size were prepared by emulsification and gathered by oxidized sodium alginate to prepare heterogeneous bilayer gelatin-based scaffolds, and then they were loaded with LbGP. The prepared scaffolds possessed interconnected porous microstructures, good degradation properties, sufficient mechanical properties, sustained release behavior and well biocompatibility. In vitro experiments suggested that the LbGP loaded gelatin-based scaffolds could inhibit the expression of inflammatory factors (IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α), promote the expression of anti-inflammatory factor (IL-10), and the expression of osteogenic markers (BMP2, Runx2, ALP, and OCN) in PDLSCs under the LPS-stimulated inflammatory microenvironment. Moreover, in rat periodontitis models, the LbGP gelatin-based scaffolds would reduce the alveolar bone resorption of rats, increase the collagen fiber content of periodontal membrane, alleviate local inflammation and improve the expression of osteogenesis-related factors. Therefore, the LbGP loaded gelatin-based scaffolds in this study will provide a potential therapeutic strategy for periodontitis treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The difficulty in creating and maintaining a stable workspace of the breast makes endoscopic nipple-/skin-spring mastectomy (E-N/SSM) develop slowly. This study aims to report the preliminary results of a novel endoscopic technique for N/SSM followed by dual-plane direct-to-implant (DP-DTI) breast reconstruction. METHODS A prospectively maintained database was reviewed that included patients who underwent single-axillary-incision E-N/SSM and DP-DTI breast reconstruction from September 2020 to April 2021 at a single institution by three surgeons. The data were collected prospectively and analyzed to determine the efficacy, feasibility, safety, and esthetic results of the operation, as well as quality of life (QoL). RESULTS During the study period, a total of 68 E-N/SSM and DP-DTI reconstruction procedures through a single axillary incision were performed in 63 female patients. Among all the procedures, the majority were performed for grade 1-3 ptotic breasts (n =46, 73.0%). During the median follow-up of 26.5 months, the major and minor surgical complication rates were 1.6% (1/63) and 9.5% (6/63), respectively. The cosmetic complication rate was 14.3%. One patient suffered local recurrence 4 months postoperation. The average scores in patient-reported outcomes at 2 years postoperation of satisfaction with breast (66.57), psychosocial well-being (75.93) and sexual well-being (56.29) were not significantly different compared with the baseline, except for physical well-being: chest (69.85). CONCLUSIONS The proposed procedure for E-N/SSM and DP-DTI breast reconstruction is feasible, time-saving and safe with good outcomes in terms of cosmetic results and QoL and expands the indications of DTI reconstruction to ptotic breasts, making it easier to popularize.

Abstract
Tumor cell invasion into heterogenous interstitial tissues consisting of network-, channel- or rift-like architectures involves both matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-mediated tissue remodeling and cell shape adaptation to tissue geometry. Three-dimensional (3D) models composed of either porous or linearly aligned architectures have added to the understanding of how physical spacing principles affect migration efficacy; however, the relative contribution of each architecture to decision making in the presence of varying MMP availability is not known. Here, we developed an interface assay containing a cleft between two high-density collagen lattices, and we used this assay to probe tumor cell invasion efficacy, invasion mode and MMP dependence in concert. In silico modeling predicted facilitated cell migration into confining clefts independently of MMP activity, whereas migration into dense porous matrix was predicted to require matrix degradation. This prediction was verified experimentally, where inhibition of collagen degradation was found to strongly compromise migration into 3D collagen in a density-dependent manner, but interface-guided migration remained effective, occurring by cell jamming. The 3D interface assay reported here may serve as a suitable model to better understand the impact of in vivo-relevant interstitial tissue topologies on tumor invasion patterning and responses to molecular interventions.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) The conventional method of estimating relative electron density using Hounsfield Units (HUs) is prone to errors resulting from various factors such as energy spectrum, exposure, scanner/patient conditions, etc. Specific calibration is needed for each acquisition protocol. To overcome these limitations, dual energy CT has been extensively researched for its accuracy in dose calculation using tube potential switching techniques. A dual layer design offers a different approach to acquire spectral images using single data acquisitions. This study aims to develop and evaluate a dose calculation method using electron density maps generated directly from a dual layer detector scanner. MATERIALS/METHODS A phantom with tissue equivalent inserts was scanned using different scanner configurations on a dual layer detector scanner. The electron density of 17 inserts ranged from 0.668 - 5.663 × 1023 m-23. The energy dependent attenuation curves were generated and translated into values of Compton and photoelectric components, which were used to calculate ED values. The ED values were compared to normal values provided by the vendor for each insert. The generated ED maps were normalized to the ED of water and used as the input for dose calculations without CT images. Dosimetry plans were generated on the phantom for two different field sizes (10 × 10 cm2 and 3 × 3 cm2) at gantry angles of 0 and 90 degrees using a 6 MV Monte Carlo engine. The dose distributions were compared between the conventional HU to ED calibration approach with CT images and the direct calculation using the calculated ED map. RESULTS The results showed that compared to the conventional HU to ED map, the ED map generated from spectral CT had a relative ED that was about 0.02 lower and was more uniform, with smaller standard deviations. The ED map was closer to the nominal value in low-density regions, while the HU converted ED map was closer to the nominal value in high-density regions. The dose distributions between the two ED approaches were almost identical, with a maximum deviation of around 1% for both field sizes at deeper depths. CONCLUSION In conclusion, a dual layer detector scanner can provide an accurate estimation of ED maps. We showed that the dose calculation using the generated ED map is highly accurate using a phantom. This method provides an alternative strategy for dose calculation that eliminates the need for HU to ED calibration and enables the use of the ED map directly.

Abstract
Background Due to radioresistance, some HER2+ patients may gain limited benefit from radiotherapy (RT) after breast-conserving surgery (BCS). This study aimed to develop an individualized nomogram to identify early-stage HER2+ patients who could omit RT after BCS. Methods The data of HER2+ patients with T0-2N0M0 breast cancer after BCS between 2010 and 2015 were extracted from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER). Based on the independent prognostic factors determined by the Cox analysis in patients without RT after propensity score matching (PSM), the nomogram and risk stratification model were constructed, and then the prognosis of patients with and without RT was compared in each stratified group. Results A total of 10799 early-stage HER2+ patients after BCS were included. Baseline characteristics were similar between groups after PSM. Multivariate Cox analysis indicated that RT could improve overall survival (OS) (HR: 0.45, P<0.001) and breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS) (HR: 0.53, P<0.001). Age, marital status, tumor location, tumor size, and chemotherapy were identified by multivariate Cox analysis in patients without RT and were incorporated into a well-validated nomogram. The risk stratification model based on the nomogram indicated that RT was associated with improved OS (HR 0.40, P< 0.001) and BCSS (HR 0.39, P< 0.001) in the high-risk group but not in the low-risk group [OS: HR 1.04, P = 0.94; BCSS: HR 1.06, P = 0.93]. Conclusion RT could significantly improve the OS and BCSS of HER2+ early-stage breast cancer patients after BCS on the whole. For high-risk patients, RT is an essential component of cancer therapy. However, the omission of radiotherapy may be considered for low-risk HER2+ early-stage patients. Further validation and improvement of the nomogram by prospective study or randomized controlled trials are warranted.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Introduction: Students have realized the importance of physical education after the epidemic of COVID-19 and have increased the demand of seeking a healthy lifestyle even during home isolation. In contrast, the current physical education system in colleges and universities does not meet the real demands of its students, demonstrating a barrier between teaching and learning. Objective: Study students’ lifestyle and sports habits during the epidemic of COVID-19. Methods: An online questionnaire was conducted to investigate and analyze students’ home exercise environment, lifestyle and exercise practices, and exercise psychology during COVID-19. A total of 1274 valid questionnaires were obtained. The data from the questionnaires were entered, sorted, and analyzed, and relevant figures were drawn and discussed. Results: It was noted that students mostly preferred outdoor exercise equipment and hands-free activities outside the home. This picture reversed during the COVID-19 epidemic when students preferred indoor equipment. In terms of exercise programs, an effective exercise program is needed to allow people to exercise effectively during home isolation. Conclusion: Physical education teachers in colleges and universities should select the right means of physical fitness to combine sports and sports life that can be practiced at home, according to the actual situation of students and their psychological demands. Students should be given a better sports experience during the quarantine process, stimulating them to stay positive and with good physical quality, aiming at strengthening immunity and reducing the risk of infection by COVID-19.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the technique and effect of combined thoracic and abdominal organ clusters resection. Methods: From February 2019 to August 2021, totally 50 cases of combined thoracoabdominal organ cluster resection were completed at Transplant Medical Center, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from donation after brain death donors. There were 47 males and 3 females, aging (34.8±12.3) years (range: 5 to 55 years). The length of hospital stay(M(IQR)) was 4(4) days (range: 2 to 43 days), the length of tube time was 4(2) days (range: 1 to 43 days). Through the midsternal incision and the abdominal grand cross incision, the cold perfusion was performing simultaneously when the perfusion lines of each target organ was established respectively. The combined resection was performed with the diaphragm as the boundary and the organ cluster as the unit. The heart and lung were separated on site and sent to the transplant hospital, and the abdominal organ cluster was directly preserved and returned to our hospital for further separation and repair. Results: Totaly 21 hearts, 47 pairs of lungs, 49 livers, 47 pairs of kidneys and 11 pancreas were harvested by this surgical treatment. The resection time was (32.6±6.5) minutes (range: 19 to 50 minutes), with no hot ischemia time. There was no accidental injury that affected organ quality and function. Heart transplantation was performed in 17 cases, combined heart-kidney transplantation in 2 cases, double lung transplantation in 43 cases, single lung transplantation in 6 cases, liver transplantation in 41 cases, combined liver-pancreas-duodenal cluster transplantation in 1 case, combined liver-kidney transplantation in 3 cases, combined pancreas-kidney transplantation in 9 cases, and kidney transplantation in 74 cases. Conclusion: Simultaneous perfusion and combined resection of thoracic and abdominal organ clusters for donation after brain death donors are feasible and effective.

Abstract
Background Although the results of gene testing can guide early breast cancer patients with hormone receptor (HR)+, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)− to decide whether they need chemotherapy (CHT), there are still many patients worldwide whose problems cannot be resolved by genetic testing. Methods A total of 144,735 patients with HR+, HER2−, pT1–3N0–1 breast cancer from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database from 2010 to 2015 were included. They were divided into CHT and no CHT groups, and after propensity score matching (PSM), overall survival (OS) and breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS) were tested using the Kaplan-Meier plot. The Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to identify independent prognostic factors. A nomogram was constructed to score each patient. Patients were divided into high- or low-risk groups according to their nomogram score using X-tile. Results Patients receiving CHT had better OS before and after matching (P<0.05), but BCSS was not significantly different between patients with and without CHT after matching. Independent prognostic factors were included to construct the nomogram, which could calculate the risk score for each patient, and then all patients were divided into two groups using X-tile: a risk score ≤238 was classified as the low-risk group and >238 was classified as the high-risk group. Patients in the high-risk group (score >238) could achieve better OS and from CHT; however, the low-risk group (score ≤238) could not. Conclusions In this study, a well-validated nomogram and a risk stratification model was built. Patients in the high-risk group should receive CHT, while patients in low-risk group may be exempt from CHT.

Abstract
Autophagy is a conserved catabolic process characterized by degradation and recycling of cytosolic components or organelles through a lysosome-dependent pathway. It has a complex and close relationship to drug resistance in breast cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding molecules that can influence numerous cellular processes including autophagy, through the posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression. Autophagy is regulated by many proteins and pathways, some of which in turn have been found to be regulated by miRNAs. These miRNAs may affect the drug resistance of breast cancer. Drug resistance is the main cause of distant recurrence, metastasis and death in breast cancer patients. In this review, we summarize the causative relationship between autophagy and drug resistance of breast cancer. The roles of autophagy-related proteins and pathways and their associated miRNAs in drug resistance of breast cancer are also discussed.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Silver nanowires (AgNWs), as one-dimensional nanometallic materials, have attracted wide attention due to the excellent electrical conductivity, transparency and flexibility, especially in flexible and stretchable electronics. However, the microscopic discontinuities require AgNWs be attached to some carrier for practical applications. Relative to the preparation method, how to integrate AgNWs into the flexible matrix is particularly important. In recent years, plenty of papers have been published on the preparation of conductors based on AgNWs, including printing techniques, coating techniques, vacuum filtration techniques, template-assisted assembly techniques, electrospinning techniques and gelating techniques. The aim of this review is to discuss different assembly method of AgNW-based conducting film and their advantages. GRAPHIC ABSTRACT Conducting films based on silver nanowires (AgNWs) have been reviewed with a focus on their assembly and their advantages.

Abstract
Centromere proteins (CENPs) are involved in mitosis, and CENP gene expression levels are associated with chemotherapy responses in patients with breast cancer. The present study aimed to examine the roles and underlying mechanisms of the effects of CENP genes on chemotherapy responses and breast cancer prognosis. Using data obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, correlation and Cox multivariate regression analyses were used to determine the CENP genes associated with chemotherapy responses and survival in patients with breast cancer. Weighted gene co-expression network and correlation analyses were used to determine the gene modules co-expressed with the identified genes and the differential expression of gene modules associated with the pathological complete response (PCR) and residual disease (RD) subgroups. CENPA, CENPE, CENPF, CENPI, CENPJ and CENPN were associated with a high nuclear grade and low estrogen and progesterone receptor expression levels. In addition, CENPA, CENPB, CENPC and CENPO were independent factors affecting the distant relapse-free survival (DRFS) rates in patients with breast cancer. Patients with high expression levels of CENPA or CENPO exhibited poor prognoses, whereas those with high expression levels of CENPB or CENPC presented with favorable prognoses. For validation between databases, the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database analysis also revealed that CENPA, CENPB and CENPO exerted similar effects on overall survival. However, according to the multivariate analyses, only CENPA was an independent risk factor associated with DRFS in GEO database. In addition, in the RD subgroup, patients with higher CENPA expression levels had a worse prognosis compared with those with lower CENPA expression levels. Among patients with high expression levels of CENPA, the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway was more likely to be activated in the RD compared with the PCR subgroup. The same trend was observed in TCGA data. These results suggested that high CENPA expression levels plus upregulation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway may affect DRFS in patients with breast cancer.

Abstract
Objective: The application of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in elderly patients with early breast cancer remains somewhat controversial. This study aimed to establish individualized nomograms to predict survival outcomes of elderly patients with and without SLNB and find out which patients could avoid SLNB. Methods: A total of 39,962 ≥70-year-old patients diagnosed with T1–T2 breast cancer in 2010–2015 were included from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program and were divided into the training set (n = 29,971) and the validation set (n = 9,991). Axillary surgery was not specified in the SEER database, and we defined removing one to five lymph nodes as SLNB. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan–Meier plot and log-rank test. Multivariate Cox analysis was utilized to identify risk factors for overall survival (OS) and breast-cancer-specific survival (BCSS). Nomograms and a risk stratification model were constructed. Results: In the training set, patients with SLNB had better OS (adjusted HR 0.57, P < 0.001) and BCSS (adjusted HR 0.55, P < 0.001) than patients without SLNB. Multivariate COX analysis identified age, marital status, grade, subtype, T stage, and radiation as independent risk factors for OS and BCSS in both SLNB and non-SLNB groups (all P < 0.05). They were subsequently incorporated to establish nomograms to predict 3- and 5-year OS and BCSS for patients with or without SLNB. The concordance index ranged from 0.687 to 0.820, and calibration curves in the internal set and external set all demonstrated sufficient accuracies and good predictive capabilities. Further, we generated a risk stratification model which indicated that SLNB improved OS and BCSS in high-risk group (OS: HR 0.49, P < 0.001; BCSS: HR 0.54, P < 0.001), but not in the low-risk group (all P > 0.05). Conclusion: Well-validated nomograms and a risk stratification model were constructed to evaluate survival benefit from SLNB in elderly patients with early-stage breast cancer. SLNB was important for patients in the high-risk group but could be omitted in the low-risk group without sacrificing survival. This study could assist clinicians and elderly patients to weigh the risk–benefit of SLNB and make individualized decisions. We look forward to more powerful evidence from prospective trials.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the role of endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-stress of Kupffer cells (KCs) and KCs-derived tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in medicating apoptosis of hepatic stellate cell (HSC). METHODS Sixty male SD rats were randomized into control group, model group, ER- stress group, depletion group and KCs block group (n=15). The 4 groups of rats were given intraperitoneal injections (twice a week for 8 weeks) of normal saline (2 mg/kg); 40% CCl4 solution (in peanut oil, 2 mg/kg); 40% CCl4 solution (2 mg/kg) and tunicamycin (1 mg/kg); and 40% CCl4 solution (2 mg/kg) and tunicamycin (1 mg/kg) followed by clodronate liposomes (50 mg/kg), respectively. After the treatments, samples of the liver tissue and serum were collected from the rats from the 4 groups to isolate KC cells, which were co-cultured with LX2 cells. In the depletion group, the rats were injected with anti-rat TNFR mAb (0.35 mg/kg) via the portal vein before isolating the KCs. Liver function examination, Eirius red staining, ELISA, immuno- histochemical staining, and RT-PCR were performed to assess the liver function, liver fibrosis, KC phenotypes, expression of the in fl ammatory factors, and the number of active HSC was detected. The isolated KCs were treated with tunicamycin before co-culture with LX2 cells, and ELISA, RT-PCR and Western blot were performed to examine KC phenotypes, in fl ammatory factors, LX2 cell apoptosis and TNFR/caspase8 pathway activity. RESULTS Compared with the rats in the control group, the rats in the model group had significantly increased ALT and AST levels, Sirius red staining-positive area, and Desmin-positive cells (activated HSCs) (P < 0.05) with significantly lowered number of CD16-positive KCs (M1), and TNF-α protein and mRNA expression (P < 0.05). Compared with those in the model group, the rats in ER-stress group showed significantly decreased ALT and AST levels, Sirius red staining positivity and Desmin-positive cells (P < 0.05) and increased number of CD16-positive KCs and TNF-α expressions (P < 0.05). In the depletion group, compared with the ER-stress group, the rats had significantly increased ALT and AST levels of, Sirius red staining positivity and Desmin-positive cells (P < 0.05) and reduced CD16- positive KCs and TNF-αexpressions (P < 0.05). In the cell co-culture experiment, the model group showed significantly reduced TUNEL-positive LX2 cells, CD16-positive cells, and expressions of TNFR1, cleaved caspase- 8 and cleaved caspase- 3 in the KCs (P < 0.05) with increased Desmin-positive LX2 cells (P < 0.05). Compared with the model group, the ER- stress group exhibited significantly increased TUNEL-positive LX2 cells, CD16-positive cells and expressions of TNFR, cleaved caspase-8 and cleaved caspase-3 in the KCs (P < 0.05) and decreased Desmin-positive LX2 cells (P < 0.05). In the depletion group, blocking TNFR resulted in significantly decreased expressions of cleaved caspase-8 and cleaved caspase-3 compared with those in ER- stress group (P < 0.05) although there was no significant changed in TNFR expression. CONCLUSIONS ER stress of KCs promotes the transformation of KCs towards M1 phenotype and increases the expression of TNF-α, which triggers the apoptosis of HSCs through the TNFR/caspase-8 pathway.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the total systematic accuracy of a frameless, image guided stereotactic radiosurgery system. METHODS The localization accuracy and intermodality difference was determined by delivering radiation to an end-to-end prototype phantom, in which the targets were localized using optical surface monitoring system (OSMS), electromagnetic beacon-based tracking (Calypso®), cone-beam CT, "snap-shot" planar x-ray imaging, and a robotic couch. Six IMRT plans with jaw tracking and a flattening filter free beam were used to study the dosimetric accuracy for intracranial and spinal stereotactic radiosurgery treatment. RESULTS End-to-end localization accuracy of the system evaluated with the end-to-end phantom was 0.5 ± 0.2 mm with a maximum deviation of 0.9 mm over 90 measurements (including jaw, MLC, and cone measurements for both auto and manual fusion) for single isocenter, single target treatment, 0.6 ± 0.4 mm for multitarget treatment with shared isocenter. Residual setup errors were within 0.1 mm for OSMS, and 0.3 mm for Calypso. Dosimetric evaluation based on absolute film dosimetry showed greater than 90% pass rate for all cases using a gamma criteria of 3%/1 mm. CONCLUSIONS The authors' experience demonstrates that the localization accuracy of the frameless image-guided system is comparable to robotic or invasive frame based radiosurgery systems.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of mumps in China from 2004 to 2013. METHODS Data of mump cases occurring between 2004 and 2013 were gathered from the national notifiable disease reporting system in China (excluding Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan); only cases classified as "final card" , laboratory confirmed, or clinical diagnosis were included. Descriptive epidemiology techniques were used to analyze features of sex, age, trends over time, and geography. RESULTS Average incidence of mumps between 2004 to 2013 was 24.20/100 000. Peaks were in 2011 and 2012, with incidence 33.9/100 000 (454 385/1.340 million) and 35.6/100 000 (479 518/1.347 million). Two seasonal peaks occurred regularly in years, one from April to July in the first year, and the other from November to January in the next year. During the study period, provinces with the highest incidence were Ningxia, Tibet, Xinjiang, and Guangxi; incidences were 72.1/100 000 (4 425/6.13 million), 48.5/100 000 (1 396/3 million), 51.7/100 000 (10 887/21.04 million), and 40.8/100 000 (19 179/46.99 million), respectively. Guangdong (28 078), Sichuan (21 924), Guangxi (21 616), and Zhejiang (20 000) provinces reported the highest number of mumps cases. Beijing, Tianjin, and Shanghai showed a consistently low incidence. Mumps cases occurred primarily among children aged 5-9 years, with incidence ranging from 118.2/100 000 to 281.4/100 000. In 2004-2008, the peak age was 6-8 years (174.1/100 000) and in 2009-2013, peak age was 5-7 years (234.5/100 000). CONCLUSION The highest incidences of mumps in China were reported in 2011 and 2012, with children of school age constituting the majority of cases.
