Abstract
In the present work, a novel n-UV convertible colour-tunable emitting phosphor was obtained based on the efficient Ce3+ -Tb3+ energy transfer in the Y10 Al2 Si3 O18 N4 host. By properly controlling the ratio of Ce3+ /Tb3+ , the colour hue of the obtained powder covered the blue and green regions, under excitation of 365 nm. The steady-state and dynamic-state luminescence measurement was performed to shed light on the related mechanism, which was justified by the electronic dipole-quadrupole dominating the related energy transfer process. Preliminary studies showed that Y10 Al2 Si3 O18 N4 :Ce3+ ,Tb3+ can be promising as an inorganic phosphor for white LED applications.

Abstract
Purpose There are some challenges to diagnosis in the context of similar diagnostic criteria for late-life depression (LLD) and adult depression due to cognitive impairment and other clinical manifestations. The association between gut microbiota and inflammation remains unclear in LLD. We analyzed gut microbiota characteristics and serum inflammatory cytokines in individuals with LLD to explore the combined role of these two factors in potential biomarkers of LLD. Methods This was an observational cross-sectional study. Fecal samples and peripheral blood from 29 patients and 33 sex- and age-matched healthy controls (HCs) were collected to detect gut microbiota and 12 inflammatory factors. We analyzed differences in diversity and composition of gut microbiota and evaluated relations among gut microbiota, inflammatory factors, and neuropsychological scales. We extracted potential biomarkers using receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis to predict LLD utilizing the combination of the microbiota and inflammatory cytokines. Results Elevated systemic inflammatory cytokine levels and gut microbiota dysbiosis were found in LLD patients. Relative abundance of Verrucomicrobia at the phylum level and Megamonas, Citrobacter, and Akkermansia at the genus level among LLD patients was lower than HCs. Abundance of Coprococcus, Lachnobacterium, Oscillospira, and Sutterella was higher in LLD patients. Notably, IL6, IFNγ, Verrucomicrobia, and Akkermansia levels were correlated with depression severity. Our study identified IL6, Akkermansia, and Sutterella as predictors of LLD, and their combination achieved an area under the curve of 0.962 in distinguishing LLD patients from HCs. Conclusion This research offers evidence of changes within gut microbiota and systemic inflammation in LLD. These findings possibly help elucidate functions of gut microbiota and systemic inflammation in LLD development and offer fresh ideas on biomarkers for clinical practise in the context of LLD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Agomelatine (AGO) is an antidepressant with unique pharmacological effects; however, its underlying mechanisms remain unknown. In this study, we examined agomelatine's effects on catalase activity, oxidative stress, and inflammation. METHODS Chronic restraint stress (CRS) model mice were established over 4 weeks, and AGO 50 mg/kg was administered to different groups alongside a deferasirox (DFX) 10 mg/kg gavage treatment. Behavioral tests were performed to assess the effect of AGO on the remission of depression-like behaviors. Meanwhile, the expression of CAT, the oxidative stress signaling pathway and inflammatory protein markers were assessed using ELISA, qRT-PCR, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS Four weeks of AGO treatment significantly improved depression-like behavior in mice through the activation of catalase in the hippocampus and serum of the model mice, increased superoxide dismutase expression, reduced malondialdehyde expression, and reduced oxidative stress damage. Deferasirox was found to offset this therapeutic effect partially. In addition, the inflammatory pathway (including nuclear factor-κB and nuclear factor of kappa light polypeptide gene enhancer in B cells inhibitor, alpha) was not significantly altered. CONCLUSIONS AGO can exert antidepressant effects by altering oxidative stress by modulating catalase activity.

Abstract
AIM To explore the value of multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) radiomics combined with traditional radiologist-defined semantic characteristics and conventional (cMRI) and functional MRI (fMRI) texture features in predicting Fuhrman grade of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS The data of 89 patients with histopathologically proven ccRCC (low-grade, 54; high-grade, 35) were collected. Texture features were extracted from cMRI (T1- and T2-weighted imaging) and fMRI (Dixon-MRI; blood-oxygen-level dependent [BOLD]-MRI; and susceptibility-weighted imaging [SWI]) images, and the traditional characteristics (TC) were evaluated. Logistic regression analysis was performed to develop models based on TC, cMRI, and fMRI texture features for grading. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and leave-group-out cross-validation (LGOCV) were performed to test the reliability of combined models. RESULTS Two T2-weighted imaging-based, two Dixon_W-based, one Dixon_F-based, one BOLD-based, and three SWI-based texture features, and three TC were extracted for feature selection. TC, cMRI, fMRI, cMRI+fMRI, cMRI+TC, fMRI+TC, and cMRI+fMRI+TC models were constructed. The AUC of the cMRI+fMRI+TC model for differentiating high- from low-grade ccRCC was 0.74, with 81.42% accuracy, 75.93% sensitivity, and 91.43% specificity. The fMRI+TC model exhibited a performance similar to that of the cMRI+fMRI+TC model (p>0.05). The areas under the curve (AUCs) of the fMRI+TC and cMRI+fMRI+TC models were significantly higher than those of the other five models (all p<0.05). For the cMRI+fMRI+TC model, the mean accuracy was 85.40% after 100 LGOCV for the test sets. CONCLUSION Multimodal MRI radiomics combined with TC, cMRI, and fMRI texture features may be a reliable quantitative approach for differentiating high-grade ccRCC from low-grade ccRCC.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the clinical value of preoperative Naples prognostic scores (NPS) in patients with resectable Siewert type II-III esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma (AEG). Methods: In this retrospective observational study we collected and analyzed relevant data of patients with Siewert Type II-III AEG treated in the Department of Gastric Cancer, Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from January 2014 to December 2018. NPS were calculated using preoperative albumin concentration, total cholesterol concentration, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, and lymphocyte/monocyte ratio and used to allocate patients into three groups: NTS-0 (0 points), NTS-1 (1-2 points) and NTS-2 (3-4 points). Kaplan-Meier was used to calculate disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) in each NPS group and the log-rank test to compare these groups. Univariate and multivariate survival analyes were performed using the Cox regression model. Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curves were constructed to compare the relationships between four commonly used tools for evaluating inflammatory responses and nutritional status:NPS, systemic inflammatory response scores, nutrient control status (CONUT), and prognostic nutrition index (PNI). Results: The study cohort comprised 221 patients with AEG of median age 63.0 (36.0-87.0) years. There were 190 men (86.0%) and 31 women (14.0%). As to pTNM stage, 47 patients (21.3%) had Stage I disease, 68 (30.8%) Stage II, and 106 (48.0%) Stage III. One hundred and forty-seven patients (66.5%) had Siewert Type II disease and 74 (33.5%) Siewert type III. There were 45 patients (20.4%) in the NPS-0, 142 (64.2%) in the NPS-1 and 34 (15.4%) in the NPS-2 groups. Higher NPS scores were significantly associated with older patients (χ²=5.056, P=0.027) and higher TNM stages (H=5.204,P<0.001). The median follow-up was 39 (6-105) months; 16 patients (7.2%) were lost to follow-up. The median OS in the NPS-0, NPS-1, and NPS-2 groups were 78.4, 63.1, and 37.0 months, respectively; these differences are statistically significant (P=0.021). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis identified the following as independently and significantly associated with OS in patients with Siewert Type II-III: TNM stage (Stage II: HR=2.182, 95%CI: 1.227-3.878, P=0.008; Stage III: HR=3.534, 95%CI: 1.380-6.654, P<0.001), tumor differentiation (G3: HR=1.995, 95%CI: 1.141-3.488, P=0.015), vascular invasion (HR=2.172, 95%CI: 1.403-3.363, P<0.001), adjuvant chemotherapy (HR=0.326, 95%CI: 0.200-0.531, P<0.001), NPS (NPS-1: HR=2.331, 95%CI: 1.371-3.964, P=0.002; NPS-2: HR=2.494, 95%CI: 1.165-5.341, P=0.019), SIS group (NPS-1: HR=2.170, 95%CI: 1.244-3.784, P=0.006; NPS-2: HR=2.291, 95%CI: 1.052-4.986, P=0.037), and CONUT (HR=1.597, 95% CI: 1.187-2.149, P=0.038). The median DFS in the NPS-0, NPS-1, and NPS-2 groups was 68.6, 52.5, and 28.3 months, respectively; these differences are statistically significant (P=0.009). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis identified the following as independently and significantly associated with DFS in patients with Siewert Type II-III AEG: TNM stage (StageⅡ: HR=2.789, 95%CI:1.210-6.428, P=0.016; Stage III: HR=10.721, 95%CI:4.709-24.411, P<0.001), adjuvant chemotherapy (HR=0.640, 95% CI: 0.432-0.946, P=0.025), and NPS (NPS-1: HR=1.703, 95%CI: 1.043-2.782, P=0.033; NPS-2: HR=3.124, 95%CI:1.722-5.666, P<0.001). Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curves showed that NPS was more accurate in predicting OS and DFS in patients with Siewert Type II-III AEG than were systemic inflammatory response scores, CONUT, or PNI scores. Conclusion: NPS is associated with age and TNM stage, is an independent prognostic factor in patients who have undergone resection of Siewert type II-III AEG, and is better than SIS, CONUT, or PNI in predicting survival.

Abstract
Contact-rich robotic manipulation tasks such as assembly are widely studied due to their close relevance with social and manufacturing industries. Although the task is highly related to vision and force, current methods lack a unified mechanism to effectively fuse the two sensors. We consider coordinating multimodality from perception to control and propose a vision-force curriculum policy learning scheme to effectively fuse the features and generate policy. Experiments in simulations indicate the priorities of our method, which could insert pegs with 0.1 mm clearance. Furthermore, the system is generalizable to various initial configurations and unseen shapes, and it can be robustly transferred from simulation to reality without fine-tuning, showing the effectiveness and generalization of our proposed method. The experiment videos and code will be available at https://sites.google.com/view/vf-assembly.

Abstract
Mild behavioral impairment (MBI) is a neurobehavioral syndrome that occurs in the absence of cognitive impairment later in life (≥50 years of age). MBI is widespread in the pre-dementia stage and is closely associated with the progression of cognitive impairment, reflecting the neurobehavioral axis of pre-dementia risk states and complementing the traditional neurocognitive axis. Despite being the most common type of dementia, Alzheimer's disease (AD) does not yet have an effective treatment; therefore, early recognition and intervention are crucial. The Mild Behavioral Impairment Checklist is an effective tool for identifying MBI cases and helps identify people at risk of developing dementia. However, because the concept of MBI is still quite new, the overall understanding of it is relatively insufficient, especially in AD. Therefore, this review examines the current evidence from cognitive function, neuroimaging, and neuropathology that suggests the potential use of MBI as a risk indicator in preclinical AD.

Abstract
Abstract
Gemcitabine (Gem) has been recommended as a first-line clinical chemotherapeutics for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) treatment. Gem treatment could generate chemoresistance associated with abnormal expressions of multiple miRNAs. In the PDAC setting, miRNA-21 (miR-21) overexpression is an important contributing factor of inducing Gem chemoresistance. Inhibition of miR-21 can significantly increase Gem chemosensitivity, which requires an efficient delivery platform to conduct combinational Gem and miR-21 siRNA (miR-21i) therapy. Herein, we synthesized a tumor microenvironment (TME)-stimuli responsive poly(beta-amino ester)s (PBAE)-based polymer nanoprodrug (miR-21i@HA-Gem-SS-P12) that could co-deliver miR-21 siRNA and Gem. The disulfide linkages conjugating GEM onto PBAE can be triggered by elevated reduction stimulus in TME to release the cargo Gem. The hyaluronic acid (HA) fabrication further improved the drug accumulation at the tumor site. Benefiting from the multiple functional improvements and synergism between Gem and miR-21i, the miR-21i@HA-Gem-SS-P12 nanoprodrugs displayed superior tumor inhibition in PDAC in vitro and in vivo. This study established an effective stimuli-responsive nanoprodrug strategy for cooperative treatment with small molecule agents and nucleotide modulators in PDAC.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the characteristics of gut microbiota in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with hypertriglyceridemia (HTG). Methods: Eighty-one patients first diagnosed with T2DM were enrolled in the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 2018 to December 2020, including 58 patients [46 males and 12 females, aged (43±13) years] with HTG [HTG group, triglyceride (TG)≥1.7 mmol/L]. There were 23 cases without HTG (NTG group), including 20 males and 3 females, aged (46±13) years. According to the severity of HTG, the patients of HTG group were divided into severe HTG group (STG group, TG ≥5.6 mmol/L) and mild HTG group (MTG group, 1.7 mmol/L≤TG<5.6 mmol/L). Thirty healthy controls were matched accordingly, including 21 males and 9 females, aged (45±6) years. Clinical laboratory indicators and feces of the subjects were collected and 16S rRNA sequencing was performed to compare the differences in intestinal flora among the groups. Results: The Shannon and Simpson indexes in HTG group were lower than those in NTG group and healthy control group (5.02±0.91 vs 5.45±0.55 and 5.60±0.63, P=0.003; 0.90±0.06 vs 0.93±0.04, 0.94±0.04, P=0.002). Compared with healthy control group and NTG group, the abundance of intestinal P_Proteobacteria, g_Escherichia_Shigella, s_Escherichia_Coli and g_Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1 increased in HTG group, while the abundance of p_Firmicutes, g_Faecalibacterium and Faecalibacterium_prausnitzii decreased. The abundance of g_Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1 in the STG group was higher than that of NTG and MTG groups, while the abundance of g_Faecalibacterium decreased. Spearman correlation analysis suggested that g_Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1 was positively correlated with glycosylated hemoglobin (r=0.22, P=0.044), fasting blood glucose (r=0.36, P=0.001), TG (r=0.27, P=0.015) and total cholesterol (r=0.44, P<0.001). Logistic regression analysis indicated that g_Faecalibacterium was a protective factor for T2DM with HTG(OR=0.90, 95%CI:0.83-0.97, P=0.006). Conclusions: The intestinal flora of T2DM patients with HTG was dysregulated, which was manifested as decreased diversity, increased abundance of P_Proteobacteria and decreased abundance of p_Firmicutes. g_Faecalibacterium is a protective factor for T2DM with HTG.

Abstract
To evaluate the efficacy of the Asia-Pacific colorectal screening (APCS) score combined with the quantitative fecal immunochemical test in colorectal neoplasia screening. Subjects who appointment to receive colonoscopy were recruited from August 2017 to May 2019 in the digestive endoscopy center. Before the colonoscopy, all subjects were scored by the Asia Pacific colorectal cancer screening scoring system and measured by quantitative fecal immunochemical test (QFIT). The detection rates of colorectal neoplasia were compared to evaluate the efficacy of the combined assay in colorectal neoplasia screening between APCS score and QFIT. A total of 1 420 subjects were enrolled in this study, APCS score medium-risk (MR) and high-risk (HR) groups were 847 (59.7%) and 573 (40.4%) and 26 cases (1.8%) of colorectal cancer, 196 cases (13.8%) of advanced adenoma, and 395 cases (27.8%) of non-advanced adenoma were detected. With the combination of APCS score and QFIT, participants were classified into 4 groups high-risk with positive QFIT result group G1, high-risk with negative QFIT result group G2, medium-risk with positive QFIT group G3, medium-risk negative QFIT group G4. The prevalence of colorectal neoplasia was 64.3%, 16.4%, 55.0%, and 9.8%, respectively. The prevalence of advanced neoplasia in high-risk with QFIT results was significantly higher than that in other 3 groups. HR and positive QFIT were the indicators for further colonoscopy, and MR with FIT negative group could postpone colonoscopy and conduct annual QFIT follow-up. The combination of APCS score and QFIT for colorectal neoplasia screening can reduce unnecessary colonoscopy, improve colonoscopy compliance and screening efficiency, and has important clinical significance and promotion value in colorectal tumor screening.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the risk factors for death in children with acute necrotizing encephalopathy (ANE) in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Methods: This was a multicenter retrospective study. Thirty-nine children with ANE were from PICUs in 4 centers from December 1, 2014 to December 1, 2020. The 4 participating centers were Beijing Children's Hospital, Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University, Hebei Children's Hospital, and Bao'an Maternity & Child Health Hospital. Patients were divided into survival and non-survival groups by the outcome at discharge, and the differences in clinical data between the two groups were compared. Risk factors for death in children with ANE and the odds ratios (OR) were analyzed by univariable Logistic regression. Results: Thirty-nine children with ANE were included. There were 18 males and 21 females. The median onset age was 30 months. The mortality at discharge was 41% (16/39). The onset age of most patients (74%, 29/39) was younger than 4 years old. Influenza virus was the most common precursor infection (80%, 20/25). Patients with shock at PICU admission were more common in the non-survival group (12/16 vs. 17% (4/23), P=0.001). Glasgow coma score (GCS) at PICU admission was significantly lower in the non-survival group than survival group (3 (3, 6) vs. 6 (5, 7), Z=-2.598, P=0.009). The optimal cut-off value was 4. The proportion of patients with GCS ≤ 4 at PICU admission was higher in the non-survival group (10/16 vs. 22% (5/23), P=0.018). ANE severity score (ANE-SS) at PICU admission was significantly higher in the non-survival group (5 (2, 6) vs. 2 (1, 4), Z=-2.436, P=0.015). The proportion of patients with high risk ANE-SS was higher in non-survival group than the survival group (9/16 vs. 22% (5/23), P=0.043). The proportion of application of high-dose methylprednisolone (20 mg/(kg·d)) was significantly higher in survival group than non-survival group (43% (10/23) vs. 1/13, P=0.031). Univariable Logistic regression indicated that risk factors for death in children with ANE were shock (OR=14.250, 95%CI 2.985-68.018, P=0.001), GCS≤4 (OR=6.000, 95%CI 1.456-24.733, P=0.013) and high risk ANE-SS (OR=4.629, 95%CI 1.142-18.752, P=0.032) at PICU admission. Conclusions: ANE usually occurs in children under 4 years old after influenza infection. Shock, GCS≤4 and high risk ANE-SS at PICU admission were risk factors for death in children with ANE. High-dose methylprednisolone may improve the prognosis of children with ANE.

Abstract
While an appropriate feed intake is crucial for the reproductive performance of sows, there is a lack of recommendations currently for feed allowance of Guangdong Small-ear Spotted gilts during gestation. The effects of 2 different feeding patterns during gestation on the reproductive performance of Guangdong Small-ear Spotted gilts were investigated by assigning 80 gilts to 2 feeding pattern groups with a randomized complete block design in accordance with initial body weight and back fat thickness, followed by treatment with an incremental feeding pattern (IFP) and a concaved feeding pattern, respectively, with no difference in total feed intake. The IFP group showed a significant decrease in the stillbirth rate (P < 0.05) and an upward trend in piglet mean birth weight (P = 0.06). Furthermore, the IFP group exhibited an increase in the weights of stomach, supraspinatus tendon, triceps, and psoas minor in neonatal piglets (P < 0.05). Overall, the results of the present investigation showed that IFP could significantly reduce the stillbirth rate of Guangdong Small-ear Spotted gilts and increase the muscle weight of progeny.

Abstract
Introduction: The outbreak of coronavirus disease has negatively impacted college students' mental health across the world. In addition, substance abuse also is trouble among these students. This study aims to find the gender difference in Chinese international college students' mental health and substance abuse during the COVID-19 pandemic. Method: We conducted an online survey using PHQ-9, GAD-7, and several questions related to substance abuse frequency, self-injury, and suicidal thoughts, 535 male and 475 female Chinese international college students whose ages ranged from 18 to 23 years old (x = 20.19, SD = 1.50) were recruited during the epidemic. We utilized t-test and binary logistic regression in our study to find out the difference and statistical significance between substance abuse issues and mental health problems across gender. Results: Both male and female Chinese international college students had statistical significance with self-injury ideas and behaviors (t = -2.21, p < 0.05). Furthermore, the male college students with anxiety problems had positive statistical significance with medicine (OR = 3.47, 95%CI = 1.45-8.30, p < 0.01) and negative statistical significance with drinks (OR = 0.23, 95%CI = 0.08-0.65, p < 0.01). While for female college students with an anxiety problem, they had positive statistical significance with medicine (OR = 4.88, 95%CI = 1.53-15.57, p < 0.01), drugs (OR = 4.48, 95%CI = 1.41-14.25, p < 0.05) and cigarettes (OR = 6.63, 95%CI = 1.95-22.57, p < 0.01) and negative statistical significance with drinks (OR = 0.18, 95%CI = -0.05 to 0.65, p < 0.01). Conclusion: This is the first cross-sectional study focusing on the Chinese international college students' mental health and substance abuse problems during the COVID-19 pandemic. We found that Chinese international college students' mental health and substance abuse situation has been negatively influenced during this period. In addition, the self-injury ideas and behaviors also showed a high tendency for these students. The findings of our study also highlight the need to find more interventions and preventions to solve the different mental health and substance abuse problems for college students, especially for female Chinese international college students.

Abstract
Purpose: Aiming to improve the drug loading capacity of dendritic nanoparticles and enhance delivery efficacy in drug-resistant cancer, we developed and optimized a more advanced dendritic, redox-responsive, supramolecular (Dr.S) system for intravenous RAD001 administration. Materials and methods: The Dr.S system was engineered by linking 3rd generation polyamidoamine dendrimers (G3 PAMAM) with 8-arm polyethylene glycol (PEG) to encapsulate a molecular targeted agent RAD001. The drug-loading capacity was measured by ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry. In vitro release behavior was determined with a two-compartment model, and the in vivo distribution pattern was tracked by Cy5.5 fluorescence. The therapeutic effect of Dr.S/RAD001 was evaluated in RAD001-resistant cancer cells and tumor-bearing nude mice, respectively. Results: The Dr.S system encapsulating RAD001 with a loading efficiency of 10.6% formed a core–shell structure, by shifting hydrophobic PAMAM/RAD001 components towards inner space and exposing the hydrophilic PEG on the surface. The Dr.S/RAD001 system could respond to a lysis-mimicking reduction stimulus, and functionally release cargoes to facilitate tumor accumulation and cellular internalization. These features contributed to the enhanced anti-tumor activity of RAD001 in renal cancers in vitro and in vivo. The Dr.S/RAD001 system also reversed acquired RAD001-resistance by a 60-fold increase in tumor accumulation of the therapeutics. Conclusion: The functional Dr.S/RAD001 system enables lysis-triggered release of RAD001 to achieve better tumor accumulation, which helps overcome acquired drug resistance in renal cancers. Aiming to improve the drug loading capacity of dendritic nanoparticles and enhance delivery efficacy in drug-resistant cancer, we developed and optimized a more advanced dendritic, redox-responsive, supramolecular (Dr.S) system for intravenous RAD001 administration.![]()

Abstract
Gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a mesenchymal neoplasm, typically arising from the muscularis propria layer of the stomach wall. Serosa-derived GIST is rarely seen and has not been reported yet. A 49-year-old Chinese female was presented with marked abdominal distension. Ultrasonography revealed a retroperitoneal tumor adjacent to the stomach wall with an intact structure of five echo layers, indicating a non-stomach tumor origin. Preoperative radiological studies suggested tight tumor-stomach adjacency, which was confirmed by intraoperative dissection. Initial frozen section indicated a pathological diagnosis of spindle cell tumor, which turned out to be a gastric GIST originated from the serosa layer of the stomach wall. The current case demonstrates the rare occurrence of serosa-derived GIST. This case also suggests difficulties in preoperative diagnosis of gastric GISTs, especially when uncommon pathological conditions like rare tumor origins were presented.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
The current study investigated whether insufficient sleep (<7 hrs.) explains differences in 10-year CVD risk, using Framingham risk (FRS) and Reynolds risk (RRS) scores, between blacks and whites and characterized risk and protective CVD risk profiles.
Methods
Using the Sleep Heart Health Study (SHHS) (N=6,441) data, we investigated the independent role of insufficient sleep in explaining differences in 10-years CVD between blacks and whites via a proportional odds model of four 10-year CVD risk groups: low (<5%), low-medium (5% to <10%), medium-high (10% to <20%) and high (≥20%), adjusting for age, sex, and apnea-hypopnea index (AHI). We performed two levels of cluster analyses; via hierarchical cluster algorithm with entire sample (Level 1), and latent profiles in the low (protective profiles) and high (risk profiles) CVD risk groups (Level 2) to determine overall CVD risk, and risk and protective CVD profiles.
Results
Blacks had a higher prevalence of smoking behavior, diabetes, mean systolic blood pressure, body mass index, total cholesterol compared to whites. Conversely, whites had a higher mean HDL cholesterol, sleep hours, and sleep efficiency compared to blacks. Men had higher 10-year CVD risk than women. AHI and race/ethnicity-sleep interaction were positively associated, while sleep was negatively associated with FRS and RRS. Across all CVD risk groups, whites who slept less than 5.5 hrs. had a higher CVD risk and those who slept more than 6.5 hrs. had a lower CVD risk compared to blacks. In Level 1 cluster analyses, we found two clusters: Cluster 1 (n= 3233): 6.17 sleep hours, apnea-index 11.84, age 59, SBP 125.43, total cholesterol 209, HDL 51.39, BMI 29.03, and slightly more than 50% female; and Cluster 2 (n=1657): 5.61 sleep hours, apnea-index 13.41, age 74, SBP 131, total cholesterol 204, HDL 50.30, BMI 26.45, and slightly less than 50% female. In Level 2 cluster analyses, we found two profiles within the low and high CVD risk groups.
Conclusion
These findings suggest that blacks may not receive full protection from long-term CVD risk with longer sleep duration, as their white counterparts.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the significance of quantitative fecal immunochemical test (FIT) for opportunistic screening of colorectal neoplasia, and to propose the most optimal thresholds to improve the screening level of early colorectal neoplasia. Methods: The opportunistic screening participants were recruited from the Department of Gastroenterology & GI Endoscopy Center of the Seventh Medical Center of PLA General Hospital, and stool sample was collected before colonoscopy and the quantitative FIT was analyzed by OC-MICRO analysator for each patient. We assessed test performance in detecting colorectal neoplasia (advanced adenoma and CRC)with different thresholds on sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV). Results: A total of 1 448 objects were enrolled in this study, including 714 male (49.3%)and 734 female (50.7%).All participants were classified according to the result of colonoscopy and pathology, and 242 cases of colorectal neoplasia were found, containing 157 advanced adnoma and 85 colorectal cancer. The FIT threshold increased from 50 μg/L to 200 μg/L, while the positivity rate dropped from 11.5% to 8.6% and the sensitivity in detecting colorectal neoplasia dropped from 47.9% to 38.8%. However, the specificity increased from 96.8% to 98.2% and the positive predictive value increased from 82.3% to 87.0%.The miss rate of colorectal cancer increased from 11.8% (n=10) to 17.6% (n=15) along with the increase in FIT thresholds, but the miss rate of 100 μg/L and 150 μg/L was the same as 12.9% (n=11). Conclusions: Quantitative FIT,which is simple and fast,with the threshold of 100 μg/L for opportunistic screening, has a high sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of colorectal neoplasia,and is an important index in screening and diagnosis of colorectal neoplasia.

Abstract
Objective:The family heredity of BPPV disease was preliminarily discussed in order to guide the clinical practice, prevent early and shorten the course of BPPV disease in the future. Method:Familial BPPV patients were enquired and registered in detail, including gender, age at first onset, occupation, inducing factors, symptoms, diagnosis, sleep status and clinical manifestations. Analysis of the clinical data. Result:Nine patients with idiopathic BPPV from four families had no definite pathogenic factors, accounting for 0.4% of the patients with idiopathic BPPV, including 3 males and 6 females; the age of first onset ranged from 31 to 66 years old. the course of disease ranged from 2 days to 8 years; the duration of nystagmus ranged from seconds to 1 minute. The main clinical symptoms were dizziness and visual rotation related to position transformation. Family 1, 3 and 4 patients had a history of fatigue. Family 2 patients had a predisposing factor of forced lateral decubitus due to lumbar discomfort. All patients had nystagmus lasting less than 1 minute and were single-tube involvement, all patients were canalithiasis. Different patients in the same family have different pathogenic locations. Conclusion:Familial BPPV is urgent to attract the attention of clinicians and the public. Early clinical test for suspected familial BPPV can play a role in early prevention and shorten the process of disease, so as to improve the life quality of patients.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze clonal evolution and clinical significance of trisomy 8 in patients with acquired bone marrow failure. Methods: The clinical data of 63 patients with acquired bone marrow failure accompanied with isolated trisomy 8 (+8) from June 2011 to September 2018 were analyzed retrospectively, the clonal evolution patterns and relationship with immmunosuppressive therapy were summarized. Results: Totally 24 male and 39 female patients were enrolled, including 39 patients with aplastic anemia (AA) and 24 patients with relatively low-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) . Mean size of+8 clone in MDS patients[65% (15%-100%) ]was higher than that of AA patients[25% (4.8%-100%) , z=3.48, P=0.001]. The patients were was divided into three groups (<30%, 30%-<50%,and ≥50%) according to the proportion of+8 clone. There was significant difference among the three groups between AA[<30%:55.6% (20/36) ; 30-50%: 22.2% (8/36) ; ≥50%22.2% (8/36) ]and MDS patients[<30%:19.0% (4/21) ; 30%-<50%:19.0% (4/21) ; ≥50%61.9% (13/21) ] (P=0.007) . The proportion of AA patients with+8 clone <30% was significantly higher than that of MDS patients (P=0.002) ; and the proportion of AA patients with+8 clone ≥50%was significantly lower than that of MDS patients (P=0.002) . The median age of AA and MDS patients was respectively 28 (7-61) years old and 48.5 (16-72) years old. Moreover, there was no correlation between age and+8 clone size in AA or MDS (r(s)=0.109, P=0.125; r(s)=-0.022, P=0.924, respectively) . There was statistical difference in total iron binding capacity, transferrin and erythropoietin between high and low clone group of AA patients (P=0.016, P=0.046, P=0.012, respectively) , but no significant difference in MDS patients. The immunosuppressive therapy (IST) efficacy of AA and MDS patients was respectively 66.7% and 43.8% (P=0.125) . Comparing with initial clone size (27.3%) , the +8 clone size (45%) of AA patients was increased 1-2 year after IST, but no statistical difference (z=0.83, P=0.272) . Consistently, there was no significant change between initial clone size (72.5%) and 1-2 year clone size (70.5%) after IST in MDS patients. There was no significant difference in IST efficient rate between +8 clone size expansion and decline group of in AA patients at 0.5-<1, 1-2 and>2 years after IST. We found four dynamic evolution patterns of +8 clone, which were clone persistence (45%) , clone disappearance (30%) , clone emergence (10%) and clone recurrence (15%) . Conclusions: AA patients had a low clone burden, while MDS patients had a high burden of +8 clone. The +8 clone of AA patients didn't significantly expanded after IST, and the changes of +8 clone also had no effect on IST response.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pathogenesis and etiology of antrochoanal polyps (ACP) are unclear. The aim of this study is to characterize the features of inflammatory cellular infiltration, the epithelial remodeling patterns and their associations to clinical parameters in ACP. METHODS A detailed histological study employing classic immunohistochemistry was performed. 33 ACPs, 49 classic bilateral nasal polyps (BNP) and 50 controls were obtained. The histological patterns and inflammatory cells infiltration were evaluated and analyzed for associations with clinical characteristics. RESULTS Less severe epithelial hyperplasia and goblet cell hyperplasia were found in ACP compared to BNP. In ACP, 87.9% of cases demonstrated neutrophilia. Elevated proportions of macrophages and CD8+ T cells, and elevated infiltration of mast cells was observed. Eosinophil infiltration was found to be positively corelated with a history of asthma; macrophages proportion was analyzed to have a significantly negative correlation with epithelial hyperplasia and goblet cell hyperplasia; the infiltration of CD8+ T cell and squamous metaplasia were found to have a positive correlation. CONCLUSION Inflammation potentially has important roles in ACP. ACP may differ in its pathogenesis from classic bilateral nasal polyps.

Abstract
RATIONALE Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) with hyperprocalcitonin are relatively rare with a low incidence rate. PATIENT CONCERNS An afebrile 63-year-old male with persistent low back pain unexpectedly presented with an extreme hyperprocalcitonin. Radiological assessment revealed thickening of the esophageal wall with vertebral bone destruction and liver lesions. Endoscopy showed an irregular-shaped esophageal lesion which turned out to be poorly-differentiated NETs. DIAGNOSIS Esophageal NETs with multiple metastases. INTERVENTIONS The patient was treated with chemotherapies, and was evaluated by procalcitonin level and radiology within follow-up. OUTCOME The procalcitonin levels were altered in line with the therapeutic response and disease progression during the treatment course. LESSONS Increased procalcitonin occurs in several malignancies with neuroendocrine components, such as NETs of the digestive system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Methylenetetrahyfrofolate reductase (MTHFR) is the key enzyme for one carbon and folate metabolism. Previous studies have drawn different conclusions about the relationship between the mutation of MTHFR and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) occurrence. MTHFR polymorphisms' influence on liver transplantation for HCC recurrence has yet not been reported. Aim of this study was to clarify the impact of MTHFR polymorphism on hepatocarcinogenesis and the prognosis of liver transplant recipient with HCC. METHODS This study enrolled 244 HCC patients and 487 healthy individuals in Chinese Han population to analyze the influence of MTHFR polymorphism on HCC susceptibility first. Furthermore, this research choose another 100 donors' and 104 recipients' specimens to detect the association between polymorphism of MTHFR and post-transplant HCC recurrence. RESULT rs1801131 polymorphism A to C was associated with the occurrence of HCC in Chinese Han population (p < 0.05), especially in age exceeding 50 years (p < 0.01). No association was observed with rs1801133 polymorphism and HCC occurrence. The mean tumor-free survival for recipients with donor liver graft rs1801133 C to T variants was shorter than CC type (12.63 ± 3.84 vs 22.43 ± 4.74 months, p < 0.05). Multivariate analysis revealed that Donor rs1801133 and Hangzhou criteria were two independent prognostic factors for tumor-free survival (p < 0.05). Neither donor rs1801131 polymorphism nor recipients' MTHFR polymorphisms was associated with HCC recurrence. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that MTHFR polymorphism was associated with HCC occurrence and post-transplant HCC recurrence. rs1801131 mutation A to C is a valuable molecular biomarker for predicting HCC occurrence in Chinese Han population. Donor MTHFR rs1801133 C to T polymorphism could present as a promising prognostic biomarkers for HCC recurrence in liver transplant recipients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In clinical practice, stent diameter is one of the variable properties important for endovascular treatment. A consensus guideline for stent retriever size selection has yet to be established. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of different diameters of Solitaire retrievers on outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Of 628 patients enrolled from the Endovascular Treatment for Acute Anterior Circulation Ischemic Stroke Registry, 256 were treated with the Solitaire 4-mm device and 372, with the 6-mm device. We matched patients treated with the 2 stent sizes using propensity score analysis. The successful outcome was reperfusion as measured by the modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction score immediately postprocedure and the dichotomized modified Rankin Scale score at 90 days. Symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage and in-hospital mortality were also recorded. RESULTS After propensity score analysis, group outcomes did not differ. In addition, in patients with atherosclerosis-related occlusion, a higher reperfusion rate (P = .021) was observed in the Solitaire 4 group, as well as a shorter time interval (P = .002) and fewer passes (P = .025). Independent predictors of successful reperfusion in patients with atherosclerotic disease on logistic analysis were the small stent (OR, 3.217; 95% CI, 1.129-9.162; P = .029) and the propensity score acting as a covariate (OR, 52.84; 95% CI, 3.468-805.018; P = .004). CONCLUSIONS We found no evidence of a differential effect of intra-arterial therapy based on the size of Solitaire retrievers. In patients with atherosclerotic disease, favorable reperfusion was associated with deployment of a small stent.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the prevalence, severity of hearing disorders and demographics of people with hearing disorders based on the whole population in Jilin, Guangdong, Shannxi and Gansu provinces in China. Methods: According to " WHO Ear and Hearing Disorders Survey Protocol" , 144 clusters were chosen with probability proportional sampling(PPS) method from the four provinces covering 194, 688, 061 residents. Audiological test, otological examination and questionnaire surveying were conducted for all samples from August, 2014 to September, 2015. The hearing disorders were classified according to WHO criteria and classification. Results: Among 47 511 targeted residents, 45, 052 individuals (94.82% response rate) participated in the survey. The standardized prevalence rates of hearing disorders and disabling hearing disorders were 15.84 % and 5.17 % respectively. Almost 50% of people with hearing disorders had no awareness of it or its starting time. There was significant difference in the prevalence among people of different ages, genders, occupations, provinces, marital status and education levels. The prevalence of hearing disorders increased significantly as age grew. People above 60 years old occupied 55.31% of the total hearing disorders. The prevalence of hearing disorders among male, people of low education and those who lost husband or wife, as well as workers and farmers was relatively higher. Conclusions: The prevalence of hearing disorders is high, and hearing disorders are " invisible" . Demographics and socioeconomic factors significantly influence the prevalence of hearing disorders.

Abstract
Background Marital status is viewed as an independent prognostic factor for survival in various cancer types. However, its role in primary liver cancer has yet to be thoroughly explored. Objective To investigate the impact of marital status on survival outcomes among liver cancer patients. Results We finally identified 40,809 eligible liver cancer patients between 2004 and 2012, including 21,939 (53.8%) patients were married at diagnosis and 18,870 (46.2%) were unmarried (including 5,871 divorced/separated, 4,338 widowed and 8,660 single). Married patients enjoyed overall and cause-specific survival outcomes compared with patients who were divorced/separated, widowed, single, respectively. The survival benefit associated with marriage still persisted even after adjusted for known confounders. Widowed individuals were at greater risk of overall and cancer-specific mortality compared to other groups. Similar associations were observed in subgroup analyses according to SEER stage. Materials and Methods We used the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database to identify 40,809 patients diagnosed with primary liver cancer between 2004 and 2012. Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression were performed to identify the influence of marital status on overall survival (OS) and liver cancer-specific survival (CSS). Conclusions In primary liver cancer patients, married patients enjoyed survival benefits while widowed persons suffered survival disadvantages in both overall survival and cancer-specific survival.

Abstract
The anticancer effect of MK-2206, an Akt inhibitor, has been explored in some types of cancers, but its effect on gastric cancer is unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate its anticancer effect in gastric cancer cells. Cell viability and colony formation assays showed that MK-2206 effectively inhibited the proliferation of SGC-7901 and MKN45 cells. The 50% inhibitory concentration values after 24, 48, and 72 hours' treatment were 22.92, 13.68, and 8.55 μM in SGC-7901 cells and 19.21, 13.10, and 9.11 μM in MKN45 cells, respectively. Treatment with MK-2206 induced apoptosis in SGC-7901 cells as indicated by flow cytometry assay. The combination indexes of MK-2206 and doxorubicin were 0.59 in SGC-7901 cells and 0.57 in MKN45 cells, whereas for 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) the indexes were 0.17 in SGC-7901 cells and 0.73 in MKN45 cells, indicating that MK-2206 could work synergistically with doxorubicin or 5-FU to inhibit cell growth. Furthermore, a small dose (1 μM) of MK-2206 co-treatment with doxorubicin or 5-FU was sufficient for complete inhibition of chemotherapeutic alteration of phosphorylated Akt expression and significant enhancement of pro-apoptosis effect through the activation of caspase pathway. Therefore, MK-2206 effectively inhibits gastric cancer cell growth by attenuation of Akt phosphorylation and synergistically enhances the antitumor effect of doxorubicin and 5-FU via caspase-dependent apoptosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osteopoikilosis is a rare and benign autosomal dominant genetic disorder, characterized by a symmetric but unequal distribution of multiple hyperostotic areas in different parts of the skeleton. Recent studies have reported loss-of-function mutations in the LEM domain containing 3 (LEMD3) gene, encoding an inner nuclear membrane protein, as a cause of osteopoikilosis. METHODS We investigated LEMD3 gene in a three-generation family from China, with six patients affected with osteopoikilosis. Peripheral blood samples were collected from family members and 100 healthy controls. All exons of the LEMD3 gene and adjacent exon-intron sequences were amplified by PCR and subsequently sequenced. RESULTS A novel heterozygous c.2612_2613insA (p.Y871X) mutation in exon 13 of LEMD3 was identified, which resulted in a frame shift predicted to generate a premature stop codon at amino acid position 871. The mutation co-segregates with the osteopoikilosis phenotype and was not found in 100 ethnically matched controls. CONCLUSION We identified a new mutation in LEMD3 gene, accounting for the familial case of osteopoikilosis. In addition we also review the clinical manifestation, diagnosis and treatment of osteopoikilosis.

Abstract
High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), a ligand of receptor for advanced glycation endproducts (RAGE), functions as a proinflammatory factor. It is mainly involved in inflammatory activation and contributes to the initiation and progression of stroke. By using a model of transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo) in type 2 diabetic rats, we investigated the changes of pro-inflammation mediators, blood-brain barrier (BBB) leakage and functional outcome after stroke. Type 2 diabetic rats did not show an increased lesion volume, but exhibited significantly increased expression of HMGB1 and RAGE, BBB leakage, as well as decreased functional outcome after stroke compared with control rats. Injection of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) into type 2 diabetic rats significantly reduced the expression of HMGB1 and RAGE, attenuated BBB leakage, and improved functional outcome after stroke. BMSCs-treated type 2 diabetic rats inhibited inflammation and improved functional outcome after stroke. Furthermore, in vitro data support the hypothesis that BMSCs-induced reduction of HMGB1 and RAGE in T2DM-MCAo rats contributed to attenuated inflammatory response in the ischemic brain, which may lead to the beneficial effects of BMSCs treatment. Further investigation of BMSCs treatment in type 2 diabetic stroke is warranted.
