Abstract
Peanut production is threatened by climate change. Damage to seedlings from low temperatures in early spring can limit yield. Plant adaptations to chilling stress remain unclear in peanut seedlings. It is essential to understand how peanut acquires chilling tolerance. We evaluated effects of chilling stress on growth and recovery of peanut seedlings. We compared and analysed biological characteristics, antioxidants, photosynthesis, biochemical and physiological responses, and nutrient absorption at varying levels of chilling. Compared with chilling-sensitive FH18, the reduced impact of chilling stress on chilling-tolerant NH5 was associated with reduced ROS accumulation, higher ascorbate peroxidase activity and soluble sugar content, lower soluble protein content, and smaller reductions in nutrient content during stress. After removal of chilling stress, FH18 had significant accumulation of O2 •- and H2O2, which decreased photosynthesis, nutrient absorption, and transport. ROS-scavenging reduced damage from chilling stress, allowed remobilization of nutrients, improved chilling tolerance, and restored plant functioning after chilling stress removal. These findings provide a reference for targeted research on peanut seedling tolerance to chilling and lay the foundation for bioinformatics-based research on peanut chilling tolerance mechanisms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Surgical treatment of unilateral Wilms tumor (WT) in children is controversial. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the survival and prognosis of radical nephrectomy (RN) and nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) in children with unilateral WT receiving adjuvant chemotherapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Data on pediatric patients with WT were collected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database from 2000 to 2019. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze factors influencing the choice of surgical strategy. Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess factors associated with overall survival. RESULTS We included 1,825 patients with unilateral WT (<14 years) who received adjuvant chemotherapy and surgery. Between 2000 and 2019, the percentage of patients treated with NSS increased from 4% in 2000 to 8% in 2019. There was no significant difference in 10-year overall survival between the two surgical strategies [NSS vs. RN, 93.26% (95% CI, 86.88%-100%) vs. 92.17% (95% CI, 90.75%-93.61%), p=0.98]. Patients with unilateral WTs ≤4 cm were more likely to be treated with NSS. There was no survival benefit for patients treated with RN compared with that for those treated with NSS (HR, 0.74; 95% CI, 0.29-1.86; p=0.5). CONCLUSIONS The use of NSS in children with unilateral WT has increased over the last two decades. Tumor size is an important influencing factor for the surgical application of NSS. Patients who underwent NSS had an equivalent OS compared with the overall group of patients with unilateral tumors who received RN.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the PET/CT imaging features of fluoride 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) in patients with various types of Parkinson's syndrome (PS), and to establish a "diagnostic tree" model of 18F-FDG PET/CT for PS. Methods: Data of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), patients with multiple system atrophy cerebellar type (MSA-C), and patients with multiple system atrophy Parkinson's type (MSA-P)admitted to the Neurology Department of Huashan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University from January 2019 to December 2021. 18F-FDG PET/CT examination was conducted in all patients. Clinical and follow-up data was collected to determine clinical diagnosis. The specific patterns of brain glucose metabolism in patients with various types of Parkinsonism were observed and their utility in the differential diagnosis of the disease was analyzed. 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging"diagnostic tree"model was established and its value in the differential diagnosis of Parkinsonism was verified. Results: A total of 320 patients, 187 males and 133 females, aged (62±9) years, were enrolled in our study, including 80 PD, 90 PSP, 114 MSA-C and 36 MSA-P patients. The differential diagnostic features of cerebral glucose metabolism of Parkinsonism were as follows: the metabolism of putamen increased in PD patients, the metabolism of caudate nucleus, thalamus, midbrain, and frontal lobe decreased in PSP patients, the metabolism of cerebellum decreased in MSA-C patients, and the metabolism of putamen and cerebellum decreased in MSA-P patients. The sensitivity and specificity of the"diagnostic tree"model are 88.75% and 91.25% for PD diagnosis, 54.44% and 96.96% for PSP diagnosis, 87.72% and 86.41% for MSA-C diagnosis, and 55.56% and 91.55% for MSA-P diagnosis, respectively. It could correctly classify 75%(240/320) of patients. Conclusions: Characteristic metabolism patterns of brain in 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging is significant for the differential diagnosis of PD, PSP, MSA-C and MSA-P. The"diagnostic tree"model is valuable for clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
Background Serum uric acid (UA) is correlated closely with traditional cardiovascular risk factors, which might interfere with the action of UA, in patients with coronary artery disease. We performed this study to evaluate the prognostic effect of UA levels in individuals with different numbers of standard modifiable cardiovascular risk factors (SMuRFs). Methods and Results In this prospective study, we consecutively enrolled 10 486 patients with coronary artery disease. They were stratified into 3 groups according to the tertiles of UA concentrations and, within each UA tertile, further classified into 3 groups by the number of SMuRFs (0-1 versus 2-3 versus 4). The primary end point was major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs), including death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and unplanned revascularization. Over a median follow-up of 2.4 years, 1233 (11.8%) MACCEs were recorded. Patients with high UA levels developed significantly higher risk of MACCEs than those with low UA levels. In addition, UA levels were positively associated with MACCEs as a continuous variable. More importantly, in patients with 0 to 1 SMuRF, the risks of MACCEs were significantly higher in the high-UA-level group (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 1.469 [95% CI, 1.197-1.804]) and medium-UA-level group (adjusted HR, 1.478 [95% CI, 1.012-2.160]), compared with the low-UA-level group, whereas no significant association was found between UA levels and the risk of MACCEs in participants with 2 to 3 or 4 SMuRFs. Conclusions In patients with coronary artery disease who received evidence-based secondary prevention therapies, elevated UA levels might affect the prognosis of individuals with 0 to 1 SMuRF but not that of individuals with ≥2 SMuRFs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES To date, evidence regarding the protective roles of the Mediterranean-Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) diet in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is scarce. This study aims to estimate the impact of adhering to the MIND diet on the mortality in patients with and without T2DM. SUBJECTS/METHODS In this cohort study, 6887 participants (1021 patients with T2DM) from the NHANES dataset were analyzed. The exposure is the MIND diet adherence. The primary outcomes are all-cause and cardiovascular (CV) deaths. RESULTS We documented 1087 all-cause deaths consisting of 377 CV deaths during the follow-up (median time of 10 years). Among participants with T2DM, those with a high MIND score (> 8.0, range of MIND score: 4.5-13) had a significantly lower risk of all-cause death (hazard ratio [HR] 0.75, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.59, 0.96, P = 0.021) and CV death (HR 0.50, 95% CI: 0.29, 0.87, P = 0.014) compared to those with a low MIND score (≤ 8.0). In participants without T2DM, a high MIND score was associated with a significant decrease in the risk of all-cause death (HR = 0.83, 95% CI: 0.70, 0.99, P < 0.001), but the association with CV death risk was not statistically significant. CONCLUSION This study uncovered significant associations between the MIND diet and decreased risk of all-cause and CV death in patients with T2DM. The findings highlight the potential benefits of following the MIND diet in managing and enhancing the outcomes of individuals with T2DM.

Abstract
Background Social isolation and loneliness pose significant public health challenges globally. The objective of this study is to investigate the association between social isolation, loneliness, and the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods 423,503 UK adults from the UK Biobank (UKB) and 13,800 Chinese adults from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) were analyzed. The exposures of interest were social isolation and loneliness. Social isolation was evaluated based on the number of household members, frequency of social activities, contact with others, and marriage status (CHARLS only). Loneliness was evaluated by the subjective feeling of loneliness and the willingness to confide in others (UKB only). The primary endpoint was incident T2DM. The two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was based on the genome-wide association studies of UKB (n = 463,010) and the European Bioinformatics Institute (n = 655,666). Findings The UKB cohort study documented 15,072 T2DM cases during a mean follow-up of 13.5 years, and the CHARLS cohort study recorded 1,249 T2DM cases during a mean follow-up of 5.8 years. Social isolation and loneliness showed significant associations with an elevated risk of T2DM in both UKB (social isolation [most vs least]: HR 1.17, 95% CI 1.11-1.23; loneliness [yes vs no]: HR 1.21, 95% CI 1.13-1.30) and CHARLS cohorts (social isolation [yes vs no]: HR 1.22, 95% CI 1.06-1.40; loneliness [yes vs no]: HR 1.21, 95% CI 1.07-1.36). These associations remained significant after accounting for baseline glucose status and genetic susceptibility to T2DM. Two-sample MR analyses determined that feeling lonely (OR 1.04, 95% CI 1.02-1.06) and engaging in fewer leisure/social activities (OR 1.03, 95% CI 1.02-1.05) were associated with increased T2DM risk, whereas more contact with friends or family (OR 0.99, 95% CI 0.98-0.99) was associated with reduced T2DM risk. Interpretation Social isolation and loneliness are each associated with an elevated risk of T2DM, with MR analyses suggesting potential causal links. These associations remain significant after considering genetic susceptibility to T2DM. The findings highlight the importance of promoting initiatives to address social isolation and loneliness as part of T2DM prevention strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the complications of diabetes and has a high mortality, but its specific pathogenesis is not clear. In recent years, researches on the mechanism of circRNAs in DN have been proved a lot, whereas the functional mechanism of circ_0003928 in DN remains open and it must be investigated to value its important role in DN prevention. METHODS HK-2 cells were treated with high glucose (HG), normal glucose (NG) or Mannitol. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK8) and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) assays were performed to detect cell proliferation. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was applied to analyze malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD) levels. Flow cytometry and western blot were preformed to measure cell apoptosis. Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to test the levels of circ_0003928, miR-136-5p and progestin and adipoQ receptor family member 3 (PAQR3) mRNA. Western blot was executed to detect Bcl2 associated X (Bax), B cell leukemia/lymphoma 2 (Bcl2), smooth muscle (αSMA), apolipoprotein (C-IV) and PAQR3 levels. Luciferase reporter assay and RNA pull-down assay were used to analyze the target relationship between miR-136-5p and circ_0003928 or PAQR3. RESULTS Circ_0003928 and PAQR3 expression were up-regulated, whereas miR-136-5p was decreased in DN serum and HG-induced HK-2 cells. Circ_0003928 knockdown promoted cell proliferation, and inhibit cell apoptosis, oxidative stress, and fibrosis in HK-2 cells under HG condition. MiR-136-5p silencing overturned the protective effects of si-circ_0003928 on HG-induced HK-2 cells. MiR-136-5p was targeted by circ_0003928 and directly targeted PAQR3. Overexpression of PAQR3 counteracted the inhibitory functions of circ_0003928 knockdown or miR-136-5p overexpression on HG-induced HK-2 cell injury. CONCLUSION Circ_0003928 acted as a sponge of miR-136-5p to up-regulating PAQR3 expression, and then regulate the proliferation, oxidative stress, fibrosis and apoptosis in HG-induced HK-2 cells.

Abstract
Complete blood count (CBC)-derived indices have been proposed as reliable inflammatory biomarkers to predict outcomes in the context of coronary artery disease. These indices have yet to be thoroughly validated in patients with intermediate coronary stenosis. Our study included 1527 patients only with intermediate coronary stenosis. The examined variables were neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), derived NLR, monocyte-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), systemic immune inflammation index (SII), system inflammation response index (SIRI), and aggregate index of systemic inflammation (AISI). The primary endpoint was the composite of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), including all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and unplanned revascularization. Over a follow-up of 6.11 (5.73-6.55) years, MACEs occurred in 189 patients. Receiver operator characteristic curve analysis showed that SIRI outperformed other indices with the most significant area under the curve. In the multivariable analysis, SIRI (hazard ratio [HR] 1.588, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.138-2.212) and AISI (HR 1.673, 95% CI 1.217-2.300) were the most important prognostic factors among all the indices. The discrimination ability of each index was strengthened in patients with less burden of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors. SIRI also exhibited the best incremental value beyond the traditional cardiovascular risk model.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and the stress hyperglycaemia ratio (SHR) are both positively associated with cardiovascular (CV) risk in patients with coronary heart disease. However, the prognostic value of these two biomarkers has not been well elucidated in patients with chronic total occlusion (CTO). Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the association of the TyG index and the SHR with long-term prognosis in patients with CTO. METHODS This prospective cohort study consecutively included 2740 angina patients with CTO from January 2017 to December 2018 at Fuwai Hospital. The outcomes are a composite of CV death and target vessel myocardial infarction (TVMI) and major CV cerebrovascular adverse events (MACCEs, including all-cause death, nonfatal MI, ischaemia-driven target vessel revascularization, and stroke). The association between biomarkers and prognosis was analysed by multivariable Cox proportional hazard models, and the predictive value was determined by a receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve. RESULTS During the follow-up with a median time of 3 years, 179 (6.5%) cases of MACCEs and 47 (1.7%) cases of CV death or TVMI were recorded. Patients with a high TyG index (> 9.10) and a high SHR (> 0.87) showed a significantly increased risk of CV death/TVMI (TyG index: HR 4.23, 95% CI 1.58-11.37; SHR: HR 5.14, 95% CI 1.89-13.98) and MACCEs (TyG index: HR 2.47, 95% CI 1.54-3.97; SHR: HR 2.91, 95% CI 1.84-4.60) compared with those with a low Tyg index and a low SHR (TyG < 8.56, SHR < 0.76). The area under the curve (AUC) values were 0.623 (TyG index) and 0.589 (SHR) for CV death/TVMI and 0.659 (TyG index) and 0.624 (SHR) for MACCEs. Furthermore, patients with both a high TyG index and a high SHR showed the highest risk of clinical outcomes among patients with different levels of these two biomarkers, and the AUC for the TyG-SHR combination was larger than the TyG index alone in predicting MACCE risk. CONCLUSIONS The study revealed that a high TyG index and a high SHR were significantly correlated with poor prognosis in patients with CTO and suggested that these two biomarkers are reliable in predicting long-term prognosis in CTO patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study focused on middle-aged and elderly adults (mean age ≥60 years) in England and aimed to evaluate the impact of sleep quality and change in sleep quality on the long-term risk of stroke. PATIENTS/METHODS The current prospective study enrolled 6214 participants without stroke from wave 4 (2008-2009) of the English Longitudinal Study Aging (ELSA) dataset. From the ELSA questionnaires, sleep quality scores were calculated and used to evaluate the sleep quality of each participant. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to assess the association between sleep status and stroke risk. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) was employed for the relationship between sleep quality score and the risk of stroke. RESULTS During the 8-year follow-up, 130 (2.1%) cases of stroke were recorded. Participants with poor baseline sleep quality had a significantly higher long-term risk of stroke compared with those with good sleep quality (hazard ratio [HR] 2.37, 95% confidence intervals [CI] 1.44, 3.91). For the influence of change in sleep quality on stroke risk, worsened sleep quality was associated with a significant increase in the risk of stroke in the good (HR 2.08, 95% CI, 1.02, 4.26) and intermediate sleep quality groups (HR 2.15, 95% CI, 1.16, 3.98). Moreover, improved sleep quality decreased stroke risk among subjects with poor sleep quality (HR 0.31, 95% CI, 0.15, 0.61). CONCLUSIONS Poor and worsened sleep quality is associated with an increased risk of stroke. Emphasis should be placed on improving sleep quality in middle-aged and elderly individuals.

Abstract
AIMS To compare the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and clinical usefulness of transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound against computed tomography angiography (CTA) for the diagnosis of ischaemic cerebrovascular disease. METHODS A total of 1,183 sites (vascular segments) of 169 patients who had been diagnosed with cerebrovascular disease using digital subtraction angiography (DSA) were evaluated by CTA and TCD for the diagnosis of the arterial lesions. RESULTS Lesions were identified in 509 sites and 674 sites did not have lesions according to the DSA examination. Each individual site had higher sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for TCD than those for CTA, respectively. For all sites, TCD had higher true-positive (p=0.0029) and -negative (p=0.0151) values and fewer false-positive and -negative (p<0.0001 for both) values than those of CTA. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of CTA for all sites to detect lesions were 77%, 88%, and 84%, respectively. The same parameters for TCD were 94%, 97%, and 95%, respectively. The beneficial scores for CTA and TCD to detect lesions were 0-0.795 diagnostic confidence and 0-0.91 diagnostic confidence, respectively. Beneficial scores >0.795 and >0.91 indicated a risk of underdiagnosis of lesions at CTA and TCD, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Compared with DSA (reference standard) and CTA, the study underscores the use of TCD in cerebrovascular pathology.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The risk of adverse events and prognostic factors are changing in different time phases after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The incidence of adverse events is considerable in the early period after AMI hospitalisation. Therefore, dynamic risk prediction is needed to guide postdischarge management of AMI. This study aimed to develop a dynamic risk prediction instrument for patients following AMI. DESIGN A retrospective analysis of a prospective cohort. SETTING 108 hospitals in China. PARTICIPANTS A total of 23 887 patients after AMI in the China Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry were included in this analysis. PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURES All-cause mortality. RESULTS In multivariable analyses, age, prior stroke, heart rate, Killip class, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), in-hospital percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), recurrent myocardial ischaemia, recurrent myocardial infarction, heart failure (HF) during hospitalisation, antiplatelet therapy and statins at discharge were independently associated with 30-day mortality. Variables related to mortality between 30 days and 2 years included age, prior renal dysfunction, history of HF, AMI classification, heart rate, Killip class, haemoglobin, LVEF, in-hospital PCI, HF during hospitalisation, HF worsening within 30 days after discharge, antiplatelet therapy, β blocker and statin use within 30 days after discharge. The inclusion of adverse events and medications significantly improved the predictive performance of models without these indexes (likelihood ratio test p<0.0001). These two sets of predictors were used to establish dynamic prognostic nomograms for predicting mortality in patients with AMI. The C indexes of 30-day and 2-year prognostic nomograms were 0.85 (95% CI 0.83-0.88) and 0.83 (95% CI 0.81-0.84) in derivation cohort, and 0.79 (95% CI 0.71-0.86) and 0.81 (95% CI 0.79-0.84) in validation cohort, with satisfactory calibration. CONCLUSIONS We established dynamic risk prediction models incorporating adverse event and medications. The nomograms may be useful instruments to help prospective risk assessment and management of AMI. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT01874691.

Abstract
Background The PRAISE (Prediction of Adverse Events Following an Acute Coronary Syndrome) score is a machine-learning-based model for predicting 1-year all-cause death, myocardial infarction, and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 3/5 bleeding. Its utility in an unselected Asian population undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for acute coronary syndrome remains unknown. We aimed to validate the PRAISE score in a real-world Asian population. Methods and Results A total of 6412 consecutive patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for acute coronary syndrome were prospectively included. The PRAISE scores were compared with established scoring systems (GRACE [Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events] 2.0, PRECISE-DAPT (Predicting Bleeding Complications in Patients Undergoing Stent Implantation and Subsequent Dual Antiplatelet Therapy), and PARIS [Patterns of Non-Adherence to Anti-Platelet Regimen in Stented Patients]) to evaluate their discrimination, calibration, and reclassification. The risk of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [HR], 12.24 [95% CI, 5.32-28.15]) and recurrent acute myocardial infarction (HR, 3.92 [95% CI, 1.76-8.73]) was greater in the high-risk group than in the low-risk group. The C-statistics for death, myocardial infarction, and major bleeding were 0.75 (0.67-0.83), 0.61 (0.52-0.69), and 0.62 (0.46-0.77), respectively. The observed to expected ratio of death, myocardial infarction, and major bleeding was 0.427, 0.260, and 0.106, respectively. Based on the decision curve analysis, the PRAISE score displayed a slightly greater net benefit for the 1-year risk of death (5%-10%) than the GRACE score did. Conclusions The PRAISE score showed limited potential for risk prediction in our validation cohort with acute coronary syndrome. As a result, new prediction models or model refitting are required with improved discrimination and accuracy in risk prediction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prediabetes is common and associated with poor prognosis in patients with acute coronary syndrome and those undergoing revascularization. However, the impact of prediabetes on prognosis in patients with coronary intermediate lesions remains unclear. The objective of the current study is to explore the impact of prediabetes and compare the prognostic value of the different definitions of prediabetes in patients with coronary intermediate lesions. METHODS A total of 1532 patients attending Fuwai hospital (Beijing, China), with intermediate angiographic coronary lesions, not undergoing revascularization, were followed-up from 2013 to 2021. Patients were classified as normal glucose tolerance (NGT), prediabetes and diabetes according to various definitions based on HbA1c or admission fasting plasma glucose (FPG). The primary endpoint was defined as major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), the composite endpoint of all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction and repeated revascularization therapy. Multivariate cox regression model was used to explore the association between categories of abnormal glucose category and MACE risk. RESULTS The proportion of patients defined as prediabetes ranged from 3.92% to 47.06% depending on the definition used. A total of 197 MACE occurred during a median follow-up time of 6.1 years. Multivariate cox analysis showed that prediabetes according to the International Expert Committee (IEC) guideline (6.0 ≤ HbA1c < 6.5%) was associated with increased risk of MACE compared with NGT (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.705, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.143-2.543) and after confounding adjustment (HR: 1.513, 95%CI 1.005-2.277). Consistently, the best cut-off point of glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) identified based on the Youden's index was also 6%. Restricted cubic spline analysis delineated a linear positive relationship between baseline HbA1c and MACE risk. Globally, FPG or FPG-based definition of prediabetes was not associated with patients' outcome. CONCLUSIONS In this cohort of patients with intermediate coronary lesions not undergoing revascularization therapy, prediabetes based on the IEC-HbA1c definition was associated with increased MACE risk compared with NGT, and may assist in identifying high-risk patients who can benefit from early lifestyle intervention.

Abstract
BackgroundThe Mediterranean-Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension for neurodegenerative delay (MIND) has been regarded as a novel healthy dietary pattern with huge benefits. However, its value in preventing and treating hypertension has not been investigated. The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of adhering to the MIND diet on the prevalence of hypertension in the entire population and long-term mortality in hypertensive patients.MethodsIn this cross-sectional and longitudinal study, 6,887 participants consisting of 2,984 hypertensive patients in the National Health and Nutritional Examination Surveys were analyzed and divided into 3 groups according to the MIND diet scores (MDS; groups of MDS-low [<7.5], MDS-medium [7.5–8.0] and MDS-high [≥8.5]). In the longitudinal analysis, the primary outcome was all-cause death and the secondary outcome was cardiovascular (CV) death. Hypertensive patients received a follow-up with a mean time of 9.25 years (median time: 111.1 months, range 2 to 120 months). Multivariate logistics regression models and Cox proportional hazards models were applicated to estimate the association between MDS and outcomes. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) was used to estimate the dose–response relationship.ResultsCompared with the MDS-low group, participants in the MDS-high group presented a significantly lower prevalence of hypertension (odds ratio [OR] 0.76, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.58, 0.97, p = 0.040) and decreased levels of systolic blood pressure (β = −0.41, p = 0.033). Among hypertensive patients, 787 (26.4%) all-cause death consisting of 293 (9.8%) CV deaths were recorded during a 10-year follow-up. Hypertensive patients in the MDS-high group presented a significantly lower prevalence of ASCVD (OR = 0.71, 95% CI, 0.51, 0.97, p = 0.043), and lower risk of all-cause death (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.69, 95% CI, 0.58, 0.81, p < 0.001) and CV death (HR = 0.62, 95% CI, 0.46, 0.85, p for trend = 0.001) when compared with those in the MDS-low group.ConclusionFor the first time, this study revealed the values of the MIND diet in the primary and secondary prevention of hypertension, suggesting the MIND diet as a novel anti-hypertensive dietary pattern.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to investigate the correlations between gene alterations induced in Mdr2-knockout (Mdr2-/-) models and liver fibrosis. SUBJECTS AND METHODS The overlapping genes in Mdr2-/- models were determined and included in logistic regression analysis to identify potential candidates for predicting liver fibrosis. Correlations between the expression levels of the identified candidates and hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) were addressed. Functional enrichment of the identified candidates was also evaluated via bioinformatic analysis. RESULTS Twenty-two overlapping genes in the GSE4612, GSE8642 and GSE14539 datasets were identified. Univariate and multivariate analysis indicated that ELOVL fatty acid elongase 7 (ELOVL7) was significantly associated with liver fibrosis S ≥ 2 (OR = 11.8, 95% CI = 2.0 - 69.2, p = 0.006). ELOVL7 was significantly upregulated in patients with various types of liver injury including hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and fatty liver diseases, and in multiple liver injury models, including bile duct ligation (BDL), carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and paracetamol injection-induced liver damage models (all p < 0.05). The ELOVL7 levels were significantly higher in HSCs than in other liver cells (all p < 0.05) and were significantly upregulated in activated HSCs compared to quiescent HSCs (all p < 0.05). In addition, ELOVL7 expression was positively associated with transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) and bone morphogenic protein 9 (BMP9) expression and negatively associated with BMP7 expression. Bioinformatic analysis of functional enrichment indicated that ELOVL7 is mainly involved in fatty acid synthesis and metabolism. CONCLUSIONS ELOVL7 could accurately predict advanced liver fibrosis. It might be involved in the activation of HSCs and the TGFβ signaling pathway.

Abstract
The Mediterranean-DASH intervention for neurodegenerative delay (MIND) diet has been evaluated as a brain-protective diet pattern that contributes to better cognitive performance and attenuates dementia. Cardioprotective effects of the MIND diet have been demonstrated in the primary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), however, there is no exploration in patients with ASCVD. In this prospective cohort study, 943 patients with ASCVD or stroke from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2003 to 2006 were enrolled and divided into three groups according to the MIND diet scores (≤7.0, 7.5-8.0, and ≥8.5). Compared with patients with low MIND diet scores (≤7.0), patients with better adherence to the MIND diet presented a significantly lower risk of all-cause and CV death, as results showed that the hazard ratio [HR] and 95% confidence interval [CI] were 1.09 (0.78, 1.52) in the group of 7.5-8.0, 0.66 (0.50, 0.87) in the group of ≥8.5 for all-cause mortality (P trend = 0.002); 0.70 (0.42, 1.17) in the group of 7.5-8.0 and 0.52 (0.35, 0.75) in the group of ≥8.5 for CV mortality (P for trend < 0.001). Besides, per one-score increase in the MIND diet score was associated with a 10% (HR = 0.90, 95% CI: 0.82, 0.99) lower risk of all-cause mortality and a 16% (HR = 0.84, 95% CI: 0.73, 0.97) lower risk of CV mortality in these patients. In conclusion, this study, for the first time, revealed that better adherence to the MIND diet was associated with improved outcomes in patients with ASCVD.

Abstract
Background Inflammatory processes crucially modulate the development, progression, and outcomes of coronary artery disease (CAD). Since hyperglycemia could alter inflammatory responses, this study aimed to investigate the effect of ANC, a novel and rapidly available inflammatory biomarker, on the prognosis of patients undergoing PCI with or without type 2 diabetes (T2D). Methods A total of 7,826 patients with CAD hospitalized for PCI at Fuwai Hospital were consecutively recruited. According to the median ANC value, patients were stratified as having high ANC (ANC-H) or low ANC (ANC-L) and were further classified into four groups by T2D. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs), including all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke, and target vessel revascularization. Results During a median follow-up of 2.4 years, 509 (6.5%) MACCEs were documented. Diabetic patients with increased ANC were at significantly higher risk of MACCEs (aHR, 1.55; 95% CI, 1.21-1.99; P = 0.001) compared to those in the ANC-L/non-T2D group (P for interaction between T2D and ANC categories = 0.044). Meanwhile, multivariable regression analysis demonstrated the highest MACCE risk in diabetic patients with a higher level of ANC than others (P for trend <0.001). Conclusion This study suggests that stratification of patients with elevated ANC and T2D could provide prognostic information for CAD patients undergoing PCI.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Currently, there is no reproducible, widely accepted gold standard to classify osteoporotic vertebral body fractures (OVFs). The purpose of this study is to refine a method with clear rules to classify OVFs for machine learning purposes. The method was found to have moderate interobserver agreement that improved with training. INTRODUCTION The current methods to classify osteoporotic vertebral body fractures are considered ambiguous; there is no reproducible, accepted gold standard. The purpose of this study is to refine classification methodology by introducing clear, unambiguous rules and a refined flowchart to allow consistent classification of osteoporotic vertebral body fractures. METHODS We developed a set of rules and refinements that we called m2ABQ to classify vertebrae into five categories. A fracture-enriched database of thoracic and lumbar spine radiographs of patients 65 years of age and older was retrospectively obtained from clinical institutional radiology records using natural language processing. Five raters independently classified each vertebral body using the m2ABQ system. After each annotation round, consensus sessions that included all raters were held to discuss and finalize a consensus annotation for each vertebral body where individual raters' evaluations differed. This process led to further refinement and development of the rules. RESULTS Each annotation round showed increase in Fleiss kappa both for presence vs absence of fracture 0.62 (0.56-0.68) to 0.70 (0.65-0.75), as well as for the whole m2ABQ scale 0.29 (0.25-0.33) to 0.54 (0.51-0.58). CONCLUSION The m2ABQ system demonstrates moderate interobserver agreement and practical feasibility for classifying osteoporotic vertebral body fractures. Future studies to compare the method to existing studies are warranted, as well as further development of its use in machine learning purposes.

Abstract
Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) play a key role in vascular calcification, which is associated with enhanced mortality in chronic kidney disease. To ascertain the concentration of parathyroid hormone (PTH) that induces apoptosis of VSMCs and to explore whether the mechanism of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is involved in PTH-induced calcification of VSMCs. The appropriate concentration and intervention time of PTH-inducing apoptosis of VSMCs were screened by flow cytometry. To investigate the effects of PTH on ER stress-related and apoptotic proteins in VSMCs, they were divided into four groups. These were the control group, the PTH group, the siC/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) + PTH group (in which siCHOP was used to knockdown the expression of CHOP at first), and the sp600125 + PTH group (in which the cells were pretreated with sp600125 at a concentration of 10 ng/ml for 24 h at first). Then, all groups except the control group were given 1x10-6 mol/L PTH to stimulate VSMCs. The changes in ER stress and apoptosis-related proteins in each group were detected, and the cell calcification was tested by Alizarin Red staining. Flow cytometry showed that the concentration of 1x10-6 mol/L PTH induced apoptosis most significantly. The apoptosis rate of the cells increased with the extension of stimulation time. The apoptosis of VSMCs pretreated with the Jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK) antagonist sp600125 was significantly reduced. The expression of cleaved caspase-3, PERK, IRE1, and CHOP was detected by Western blot analysis when cells were stimulated with 10-6 mol/L PTH for 14 days. After the knockdown of the CHOP expression by siCHOP, cleaved caspase-3 expression was significantly reduced. Alizarin Red staining showed siCHOP and sp600125 inhibits the VSMCs' calcification induced by PTH. In conclusion: the ER stress mechanism is involved in VSMCs' calcification induced by PTH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent publications reported a paradoxical finding that there was an inverse association between the number of standard modifiable risk factors (SMuRFs; smoking, hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia) and mortality in patients with myocardial infarction. However, the current evidence is only limited to those highly developed countries with advanced medical management systems. METHODS The China Acute Myocardial Infarction registry is a prospective observational study including patients with acute myocardial infarction from three-level hospitals across 31 administrative regions throughout mainland China. A total of 16,228 patients with first-presentation ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) admitted to hospitals from January 2013 to September 2014 were enrolled in the current analysis. Cox proportional hazard models adjusting for baseline characteristics, clinical profiles at presentation, and in-hospital treatments were used to assess the association of the number of SMuRFs with all-cause mortality at 30 days after STEMI presentation. RESULTS A total of 1918 (11.8%), 11,503 (70.9%), and 2807 (17.3%) patients had 0, 1-2, and 3-4 SMuRFs at presentation, respectively. Patients with fewer SMuRFs were older and more likely to be females, experienced longer pre-hospital delays, and were less likely to receive primary percutaneous coronary intervention and evidence-based medications. Compared with those without any SMuRF, patients with 1-2 SMuRFs and 3-4 SMuRFs were associated with an HR of 0.74 (95% CI, 0.63-0.87) and 0.63 (0.51-0.77) for all-cause mortality up to 30 days in the unadjusted model (Ptrend < 0.0001). However, after multivariate adjustment, the number of SMuRFs was positively associated with increased mortality risk (HR for 1-2 SMuRFs, 1.15 [0.95-1.39]; HR for 3-4 SMuRFs, 1.31 [1.02-1.68]; Ptrend = 0.03), and the association was only significant among patients admitted to hospitals beyond 12 h from onset (HR for 1-2 SMuRFs, 1.39 [1.03-1.87]; HR for 3-4 SMuRFs, 2.06 [1.41-3.01]) but not their counterparts (Pinteraction = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS The increased crude mortality risk among patients without SMuRFs is explained by confounding factors related to their poor risk profiles (old age, longer pre-hospital delays, and poor clinical management). After multivariate adjustment, a higher risk-factor burden was associated with poor prognosis among patients with STEMI.

Abstract
Objective: We evaluated the safety and efficacy of lipoprotein apheresis (LA) in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) who can't reach low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) target goals with the maximal tolerated dose of lipid-lowering agents. Methods: This was a retrospective cross-sectional study. Between February 2015 and November 2019, patients with FH who were admitted in Fuwai hospital and treated with LA were consecutively enrolled. Based on intensive lipid-lowering agents, these patients received LA by double filtration plasma pheresis (DFPP) method. The changes of lipid levels such as LDL-C and lipoprotein(a)[Lp(a)] were compared before and after LA treatment, and the changes of immunoglobulin (Ig) concentration and LA-related adverse effects were also discussed. Results: A total of 115 patients with FH were enrolled in this study, of which 8 cases were homozygous FH and 107 cases were heterozygous FH. The age was (43.9±12.2) years and there were 75 (65.2%) males, and 108 (93.8%) with coronary artery disease. For pre-and immediately after LA treatment, the LDL-C was (5.20±2.94) mmol/L vs. (1.83±1.08) mmol/L, Lp(a) concentration was 428.70(177.00, 829.50)mg/L vs. 148.90(75.90, 317.00) mg/L (P<0.001), with a decrease of 64.2% and 59.8% respectively. The levels of IgG and IgA measured 1 day after LA treatment were both in the normal range and IgM concentration was below the reference value, the reductions of which were 15.1%, 25.0% and 58.7% respectively (P<0.001). Six patients had mild symptoms of nausea, hypotension dyspnea and palpitation, the symptoms were relieved by symptomatic treatment. Conclusion: For patients with FH who do not achieve LDL-C target goal with the maximal tolerated lipid-lowering agents, especially those with elevated Lp(a) levels, LA, which can significantly further reduce LDL-C and Lp(a) levels, is an effective and safe option.

Abstract
BackgroundBAT1806/BIIB800 is a proposed biosimilar to reference tocilizumab (TCZ). A Phase III randomised, double-blind, active-controlled clinical trial was conducted as part of a biosimilar development programme.ObjectivesTo evaluate the efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and immunogenicity of BAT1806/BIIB800 in comparison with EU-sourced TCZ in subjects with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis with inadequate response to methotrexate (MTX).MethodsThe study was conducted at 55 centres in China and Europe, between June 2018 and January 2021. Eligible subjects were randomised in a 2:1:1 ratio to one of three treatment groups: (1) BAT1806/BIIB800 up to Week 48, (2) TCZ up to Week 48, or (3) TCZ up to Week 24, followed by BAT1806/BIIB800 from Week 24 to Week 48, administered intravenously every 4 weeks at a dose of 8mg/kg. The primary endpoint was the proportion of subjects achieving an ACR20 response at timepoints pre-specified to meet the requirements of different Regulatory Agencies: Week 12, for EMA; Week 24, for FDA and NMPA. Equivalence margins applied to differences in ACR20 response rates in the BAT1806/BIIB800 and TCZ treatment groups were pre-specified as follows: +/- 14.5% for EMA (95% confidence interval (CI)); -12.0%,15% for FDA (90% CI); +/- 13.6% for NMPA (95% CI). Secondary endpoints included pharmacokinetics, safety and immunogenicity.The ICH E9(R1) estimands framework including intercurrent events (related or unrelated to the COVID19 pandemic) was implemented for the ACR20 evaluation. A logistic regression model including ‘region’ (China and Eastern Europe) and ‘previous biologic or targeted synthetic DMARD use’ (Yes/No) as captured in Interactive Web Response System as stratification factors was utilised to assess equivalence for the primary endpoint. The difference in response rates was estimated and corresponding confidence intervals were derived to assess equivalence for the primary endpoint. This abstract presents results up to Week 24.ResultsIn total, 621 subjects were randomised to receive BAT1806/BIIB800 (N=312), TCZ (N=155), or TCZ followed by BAT1806/BIIB800 (N=154). The groups were comparable in terms of baseline demographics and disease characteristics, including age, gender, disease activity and disease duration. The estimated proportions of subjects achieving an ACR20 response in the BAT1806/BIIB800 vs. the TCZ groups, respectively, were 68.97% vs. 64.82% at Week 12 and 69.89% vs. 67.94% at Week 24. The estimated difference between ACR response rates was 4.15% (95% CI -3.63, 11.93) at week 12, and 1.94% (90% CI -4.04, 7.92; 95% CI -5.18, 9.07) at Week 24. The CIs for the estimated differences between the treatment groups were within the pre-defined equivalence margins (Figure 1). The treatment groups were comparable in terms of serum trough levels, incidence of TEAEs and ADA/NAb positivity (Table 1).Table 1.Safety and Immunogenicity up to Week 24, and Pharmacokinetics at Week 24TCZ (N =309) n (%)BAT1806/BIIB800 (N=312) n (%)TEAE196 (63.4)201 (64.4)Related TEAE151 (48.9)148 (47.4)Serious TEAE13 (4.2)11 (3.5)Related Serious TEAE7 (2.3)2 (0.6)Fatal TEAE1 (0.3)3 (1.0)ADA positive a42 (13.6%)64 (20.5%)NAb positive a42 (13.6%)63 (20.2%)PK, n271276Serum trough level (ug/mL), mean (SD)15.4 (17.1)15.8 (12.3)Serum trough level (ug/mL), geometric mean (CV%)12.3 (140.3)12.9 (121.3)Below limit of quantification, n (%)43 (15.9)28 (10.1)TEAE, treatment emergent adverse eventsa subjects with ≥1 ADA/NAb positive results up to week 24ConclusionBAT1806/BIIB800 has demonstrated equivalent efficacy at Week 12 and Week 24 and a similar PK, safety and immunogenicity profile as reference tocilizumab up to Week 24.Disclosure of InterestsXiaomei Leng: None declared, Piotr Leszczynski: None declared, Sławomir Jeka: None declared, Shengyun Liu: None declared, Huaxiang Liu: None declared, Malgorzata Miakisz: None declared, Jieruo Gu: None declared, Lali Kilasonia Speakers bureau: Sandoz, Amgen, Takeda, Mykola Stanislavchuk Speakers bureau: Pfizer, Orion, Boehringer Ingelheim, Xiaolei Yang Shareholder of: Employee of the Bio-thera Solutions Ltd. with shares as a part of Stock incentive plan., Employee of: Employee of the Bio-thera Solutions Ltd., Yinbo Zhou Shareholder of: Employee of Bio-thera Solutions Ltd. with share as part of Stock incentive plan, Employee of: Employee of Bio-thera Solutions Ltd., Qingfeng Dong Shareholder of: Employee of Bio-thera Solutions Ltd. with shares as part of Stock incentive plan, Employee of: Employee of Bio-thera Solutions Ltd., Marian Mitroiu Shareholder of: Employee of Biogen and may hold stocks, Employee of: Employee of Biogen, Janet Addison Shareholder of: Employee of Biogen and holds stock in Biogen, Employee of: Employee of Biogen, Xiaofeng Zeng: None declared

Abstract
BACKGROUND With the growing burden of non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), developing countries face great challenges in providing equitable treatment nationwide. However, little is known about hospital-level disparities in the quality of NSTEMI care in China. We aimed to investigate the variations in NSTEMI care and patient outcomes across the three hospital levels (province-, prefecture- and county-level, with decreasing scale) in China. METHODS Data were derived from the China Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry on patients with NSTEMI consecutively registered between January 2013 and November 2016 from 31 provinces and municipalities throughout mainland China. Patients were categorized according to the hospital level they were admitted to. Multilevel generalized mixed models were fitted to examine the relationship between the hospital level and in-hospital mortality risk. RESULTS In total, 8,054 patients with NSTEMI were included (province-level: 1,698 patients; prefecture-level: 5,240 patients; county-level: 1,116 patients). Patients in the prefecture- and county-level hospitals were older, more likely to be female, and presented worse cardiac function than those in the province-level hospitals (P <0.05). Compared with the province-level hospitals, the rate of invasive strategies was significantly lower in the prefecture- and county-level hospitals (65.3, 43.3, and 15.4%, respectively, P <0.001). Invasive strategies were performed within the guideline-recommended timeframe in 25.4, 9.7, and 1.7% of very-high-risk patients, and 16.4, 7.4, and 2.4% of high-risk patients in province-, prefecture- and county-level hospitals, respectively (both P <0.001). The use of dual antiplatelet therapy in the county-level hospitals (87.2%) remained inadequate compared to the province- (94.5%, P <0.001) and prefecture-level hospitals (94.5%, P <0.001). There was an incremental trend of in-hospital mortality from province- to prefecture- to county-level hospitals (3.0, 4.4, and 6.9%, respectively, P-trend <0.001). After stepwise adjustment for patient characteristics, presentation, hospital facilities and in-hospital treatments, the hospital-level gap in mortality risk gradually narrowed and lost statistical significance in the fully adjusted model [Odds ratio: province-level vs. prefecture-level: 1.23 (0.73-2.05), P = 0.441; province-level vs. county-level: 1.61 (0.80-3.26), P = 0.182; P-trend = 0.246]. CONCLUSIONS There were significant variations in NSTEMI presentation and treatment patterns across the three hospital levels in China, which may largely explain the hospital-level disparity in in-hospital mortality. Quality improvement initiatives are warranted, especially among lower-level hospitals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In China, ischemic heart disease is the main cause of mortality. Having cardiac rehabilitation and a secondary prevention program in place is a class IA recommendation for individuals with coronary artery disease. WeChat-based interventions seem to be feasible and efficient for the follow-up and management of chronic diseases. OBJECTIVE This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a tertiary A-level hospital, WeChat-based telemedicine intervention in comparison with conventional community hospital follow-up on medication adherence and risk factor control in individuals with stable coronary artery disease. METHODS In this multicenter prospective study, 1424 patients with stable coronary artery disease in Beijing, China, were consecutively enrolled between September 2018 and September 2019 from the Fuwai Hospital and 4 community hospitals. At 1-, 3-, 6-, and 12-month follow-up, participants received healthy lifestyle recommendations and medication advice. Subsequently, the control group attended an offline outpatient clinic at 4 separate community hospitals. The intervention group had follow-up visits through WeChat-based telemedicine management. The main end point was medication adherence, which was defined as participant compliance in taking all 4 cardioprotective medications that would improve the patient's outcome (therapies included antiplatelet therapy, β-blockers, statins, and angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin-receptor blockers). Multivariable generalized estimating equations were used to compare the primary and secondary outcomes between the 2 groups and to calculate the relative risk (RR) at 12 months. Propensity score matching and inverse probability of treatment weighting were performed as sensitivity analyses, and propensity scores were calculated using a multivariable logistic regression model. RESULTS At 1 year, 88% (565/642) of patients in the intervention group and 91.8% (518/564) of patients in the control group had successful follow-up data. We matched 257 pairs of patients between the intervention and control groups. There was no obvious advantage in medication adherence with the 4 cardioprotective drugs in the intervention group (172/565, 30.4%, vs 142/518, 27.4%; RR 0.99, 95% CI 0.97-1.02; P=.65). The intervention measures improved smoking cessation (44/565, 7.8%, vs 118/518, 22.8%; RR 0.48, 95% CI 0.44-0.53; P<.001) and alcohol restriction (33/565, 5.8%, vs 91/518, 17.6%; RR 0.47, 95% CI 0.42-0.54; P<.001). CONCLUSIONS The tertiary A-level hospital, WeChat-based intervention did not improve adherence to the 4 cardioprotective medications compared with the traditional method. Tertiary A-level hospital, WeChat-based interventions have a positive effect on improving lifestyle, such as quitting drinking and smoking, in patients with stable coronary artery disease and can be tried as a supplement to community hospital follow-up.

Abstract
Background Length of stay (LOS) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is directly associated with financial pressure and medical efficiency. This study aimed to determine impact of LOS on short-term outcomes and associated factors of LOS in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). Methods A total of 3615 patients with STEMI after PPCI in the China Acute Myocardial Infarction registry were included in the analysis. Predictors of prolonged LOS were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression model with generalized estimating equation. The impact of LOS on 30-day clinical outcomes was assessed. Results The median LOS was 9 (7, 12) days. Patients with a longer LOS (>7 days) were older, more often in lower-level hospitals, had more periprocedural complications and hospitalization expense. Fourteen variables, such as weekend admission and lower-level hospitals, were identified as independent associated factors of prolonged LOS. There were no significant difference in 30-day major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), readmission, and functional status between patients with LOS≤7d and LOS>7d after multivariate adjustment and propensity score matching. However, patients who discharged over one week had better medication adherence (adjusted odds ratio: 0.817, 95% confidence interval: 0.687-0.971, P=0.022). Significant interaction was observed in medication use between gender and LOS (Pinteraction=0.038). Conclusion Patients with STEMI undergoing PPCI experienced a relatively long LOS in China, which resulted in more medical expenses but no improvement on 30-day MACCE, readmission, and functional recovery. Poor 30-day medication adherence with short LOS reflects unsatisfying transition of management from hospital to community. More efforts are needed to reduce LOS safely and improve the efficiency of medical care.

Abstract
Prevention of bacterial infection and reduction of hemorrhage, the primary challenges posed by trauma before hospitalization, are essential steps in prolonging the patient's life until they have been transported to a trauma center. Extracellular matrix (ECM) hydrogel is a promising biocompatible material for accelerating wound closure. However, due to the lack of antibacterial properties, this hydrogel is difficult to be applied to acute contaminated wounds. This study formulates an injectable dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel (porcine acellular dermal matrix (ADM)) as a scaffold for skin defect repair. The hydrogel combines vancomycin, an antimicrobial agent for inducing hemostasis, expediting antimicrobial activity, and promoting tissue repair. The hydrogel possesses a porous structure beneficial for the adsorption of vancomycin. The antimicrobial agent can be timely released from the hydrogel within an hour, which is less than the time taken by bacteria to infest an injury, with a cumulative release rate of approximately 80%, and thus enables a relatively fast bactericidal effect. The cytotoxicity investigation demonstrates the biocompatibility of the ADM hydrogel. Dynamic coagulation experiments reveal accelerated blood coagulation by the hydrogel. In vivo antibacterial and hemostatic experiments on a rat model indicate the healing of infected tissue and effective control of hemorrhaging by the hydrogel. Therefore, the vancomycin-loaded ADM hydrogel will be a viable biomaterial for controlling hemorrhage and preventing bacterial infections in trauma patients.

Abstract
Background: Young people hold a stable or increasing percentage of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in many countries. However, data on clinical characteristics and outcomes of young AMI patients were insufficient. This study aimed to analyze clinical characteristics, prognosis, and gender disparities in patients aged ≤45 years with AMI. Methods: A total of 24,125 patients from China Acute Myocardial Infarction registry were included in this study. Clinical characteristics, managements, and in-hospital and 2-year outcomes were compared between patients aged ≤45 years and those aged >45 years. Predictors of all-cause death were obtained using multivariate regression models. Gender disparities of AMI were analyzed among young patients. Results: Of 24,125 patients, 2,042 (8.5%, 116 female) were aged ≤45 years. Compared with patients aged >45 years, young patients were more often male, current smokers, and more likely to have medical history of hyperlipidemia. Smoking (72.1%) was the major modifiable risk factor in patients aged ≤45 years. Young patients received more evidence-based medications and had significantly lower risk of both in-hospital and 2-year adverse events than older patients. Education level and left ventricular ejection fraction were independent predictors of 2-year mortality in young patients. Moreover, symptom onset to admission time of young women was significantly longer than that of young men. Young women were less likely to receive percutaneous coronary intervention and suffered higher risk of in-hospital adverse events than young men (adjusted odds ratio for death: 5.767, 95% confidence interval 1.580–21.049, p = 0.0080; adjusted odds ratio for the composite of death, re-infarction, and stroke: 3.981, 95% confidence interval 1.150–13.784, p = 0.0292). Young women who survived at discharge had a higher 2-year cumulative incidence of death (3.8 vs 1.4%, plog−rank = 0.0412). Conclusions: Patients aged ≤45 years constituted a non-negligible proportion of AMI patients, with higher prevalence of smoking and hyperlipidemia but better care and prognosis compared with older patients. There were significant gender disparities of managements and outcomes in young patients. More efforts to improve quality of care in young women are needed.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the effect of the resection of the primary lesion on the prognosis for patients with stage Ⅳ breast cancer. Methods: A total of 132 breast cancer patients who were first diagnosed as stage Ⅳ in the Hebei Cancer Hospital from June 2008 to June 2015 were divided into two groups: the primary resection group (n=85) and the unresection group (n=47). The influences of primary resection, timing of operation, lymph node removal or dissection and radiotherapy on the prognosis of stage Ⅳ breast cancer patients were analyzed. Results: Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that visceral metastasis was an independent influencing factor for primary lesion resection in stage Ⅳ breast cancer patients (OR=2.590, 95% CI: 1.090-6.159). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that primary resection was an independent factor for the improvement of prognosis in stage Ⅳ breast cancer patients (OR=0.582, 95% CI: 0.400-0.847). The median overall survival (OS) was 37.20 months in the resection group, which was higher than 24.10 months in the unresection group (χ(2)=8.108, P=0.004). Among patients aged ≥50 years old, the median OS was 39.30 months in the resection group and 23.03 months in the unresection group, and the difference was statistically significant (χ(2)=14.191, P<0.001). The median OS was 38.00 months in the 66 patients with the operation time from diagnosis to resection of primary lesion<6 months (n=66), and 35.20 months for ≥6 months (n=19) (χ(2)=4.430, P=0.035), the difference was statistically significant (χ(2)=4.430, P=0.035). The median OR of axillary lymph node dissection and axillary lymph node excision group were 45.37 months and 33.44 months, respectively, the difference was statistically significant (χ(2)=7.832, P=0.005). The median OS of postoperative radiotherapy group and non-radiotherapy group were 44.80 months and 33.20 months, respectively, the difference was not statistically significant (χ(2)=2.950, P=0.086). Conclusion: Resection of the primary lesion may prolong the survival time of some advanced breast cancer patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Subjective cognitive decline (SCD) as an early pathological manifestation of brain aging has become more prevalent among older adults. OBJECTIVES We aimed to investigate the associations of subjective cognitive decline (SCD) with the combined risk of cognitive impairment and dementia. DESIGN We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis via searching Embase, PubMed and Cochrane electronic databases from January 1 st 1970 to June 4th, 2020. SETTING Prospective cohort studies Participants: Healthy individuals were recruited from community, clinics and population. MEASUREMENTS Healthy individuals with SCD were classified into exposure groups, while those without were considered as the reference group. Adjusted relative risks (RR) were estimated in a random-effects model. Both primary and subgroup analyses were conducted. RESULTS Of 28,895 identified studies, 21 studies containing 22 cohorts were eligible for inclusion in the meta-analysis. SCD increased the risk of subsequent cognitive disorders (RR=2.12, 95% confidence intervals [CI] =1.75-2.58, I2=87%, P<0.01). To be specific, SCD conferred a 2.29-fold excess risk for cognitive impairment (RR=2.29, 95% CI=1.66-3.17, I2=83%, P<0.01) and a 2.16-fold excess risk for dementia (RR=2.16, 95% CI=1.63-2.86, I2=81%, P<0.01). In subgroup analyses, participants with SCD in the subgroup of 65-75 years old, long-education (>15 years) subgroup and subgroup of clinics showed a higher risk of developing objective cognitive disorders. CONCLUSIONS SCD is associated with an increased combined risk of cognitive impairment and incident dementia and should be considered a risk factor for objective cognitive disorders.

Abstract
Abiotic stresses are major environmental factors inhibiting plant growth and development. AITRs (ABA-induced transcription repressors) are a novel family of transcription factors regulating ABA (abscisic acid) signalling and plant responses to abiotic stresses in Arabidopsis. However, the composition and evolution history of AITRs and their roles in the cotton genus are largely unknown. A total of 12 putative AITRs genes were identified in cultivated tetraploid cotton, Gossypium hirsutum. Phylogenetic analysis of GhAITRs in these tetraploid cottons and their closely related species implicate ancient genome-wide duplication occurring after speciation of Gossypium, and Theobroma could generate duplicates of GhAITRs. Duplicated GhAITRs were stably inherited following diploid speciation and further allotetraploidy in Gossypium. Homologous GhAITRs shared common expression patterns in response to ABA, drought and salinity treatments, and drought tolerance induced in transgenic Arabidopsis plants expressing GhAITR-A1. Together, our findings reveal that duplicates in the GhAITRs gene family were achieved by whole genome duplication rather than three individual duplication events, and that GhAITRs function as transcription repressors and are involved in the regulation of plant responses to ABA and drought stress. These results provide insights towards the improvement of abiotic stress tolerance in cotton using GhAITRs.

Abstract
Traditionally, the healthy urinary bladder has been considered to be sterile. Several teams have used metagenomic (DNA-dependent) and metaculturomic (culture-dependent) methods to debunk this longstanding dogma. In fact, resident microbial communities (urobiome) have been detected in both adult females and males. Although the field is young, several observations have been made. For example, the urobiome differs between men and women, likely due to anatomical and hormonal differences. Importantly, the urobiome has been associated with a variety of lower urinary tract disorders, including overactive bladder and post-operative urinary tract infection, raising the possibility that clinicians might one day treat symptoms by modifying the urobiome instead of killing the suspected uropathogen. Little is known concerning the relationship between the urobiome and host genetics; so far, only a single paper has reported such a study. However, major efforts have gone into understanding the genomics of the urobiome itself, a process facilitated by the fact that many urobiome studies have used metaculturomic methods to detect and identify microbes. In this narrative review, we will introduce the urobiome with separate sections on the female and male urobiomes, discuss challenges specific to the urobiome, describe newly discovered associations between the urobiome and lower urinary tract symptoms, and highlight the one study that has attempted to relate host genetics and the urobiome. We will finish with a section on how metagenomic surveys and whole genome sequencing of bacterial isolates are improving our understanding of the urobiome and its relationship to lower urinary tract health and disorders.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical and genetic characteristics of primary hypoparathyroidism in children. Methods: The clinical data including age, symptoms, laboratory examination and cranial CT of 13 children with primary hypoparathyroidism diagnosed in the Capital Institute of Pediatrics from May 2017 to December 2019 were collected and analyzed retrospectively. These children and their parents also had gene detected by whole exome sequencing and (or) copy number variation sequencing. Results: Among the 13 patients, 7 were male and 6 female. The onset age was 3 years (1 day-12 years) old. The time from onset to confirmed diagnosis was 2 months (2 days-10 years). The clinical manifestations included convulsion (9 cases), tetany (2 cases), muscle pain (1 case), mental retardation (5 cases), deafness (1 case), and initially misdiagnosed epilepsy (5 cases). The lab examination showed average blood calcium level of (1.7±0.3) mmol/L, blood phosphorus of (2.8±0.4) mmol/L, and parathyroid hormone of 8.2 (3.9-28.7)ng/L. Head CT found 7 cases of ectopic calcification. Among the 7 cases who had genetic abnormalities according to the gene detection, 5 had heterozygous deletion of 22q11.2 region, and only one of whom was diagnosed with typical DiGeorge syndrome. As for the rest 2 cases, one had autosomal dominant hypocalcemia caused by novel heterozygous variation of CaSR gene c.2495T>G (p.F832C), and the other was hypoparathyroidism-deafness-renal dysplasia syndrome caused by GATA3 c.708dupC (p.S237Qfs*66) novel heterozygous variation. Conclusions: Primary hypoparathyroidism in children is mainly characterized by hypocalcemia and usually accompanied with diverse symptoms which may indicate genetic disorders. The detection of large fragment deletion should be considered to exclude 22q11.2 deletion syndrome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been demonstrated to have crucial roles in cancer development. We investigated the involvement of miR-223-3p in neuroblastoma (NB). MATERIALS AND METHODS MiR-223-3p expression in NB cell lines and normal cell line was analyzed with real-time quantitative PCR method. Cell proliferation, cell invasion, and cell apoptosis were assessed by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), transwell invasion assay, and flow cytometry assay, respectively. Bioinformatics analysis, Dual-Luciferase reporter assays, and Western blot analysis were conducted to identify the connection of miR-223-3p and forkhead box O1 (FOXO1). RESULTS MiR-223-3p level was found highly expressed in NB cell lines compared with normal cell line. Knockdown miR-223-3p expression decreased cell growth and invasion but increased cell apoptosis. MiR-223-3p was able to bind with the 3'-untranslated region of FOXO1, and thereby resulting in a reduction of FOXO1 expression. The knockdown of FOXO1 increased the malignant capacity of NB cells. CONCLUSIONS Therefore, given the fact that miR-223-3p suppressed FOXO1 expression to promote NB progression, targeting miR-223-3p may be an effective method for NB treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Metastasis is one of the main causes of leading recurrence and death in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). XRCC5 can affect several types of human cancers. The aim of the present study is to explore the metastasis correlation between the expression level of XRCC5 protein in HCC cell lines with different metastatic potentials and the prognosis of patients with HCC. MATERIALS AND METHODS Hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines used in this study include MHCC97-H, MHCC97-L, HepG2, and HL-7702. RESULTS XRCC5 was widely expressed in HCC cell lines analyzed by Real-Time Reverse Transcription PCR and Western blotting. The levels of XRCC5 protein and mRNA were positively correlated with the migration and invasion capability of HCC cell lines. SiRNA-XRCC5 significantly suppressed the migration and invasion of HCC cells. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) results showed that high-expressed XRCC5 in patients with HCC was associated with advanced tumors, size, and microvascular invasion and lower overall survival time than the low-expressed. The expression levels of CTNNB1 and MMP9 decreased by knocked down XRCC5 which may promote the progression of HCC via the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that the high expression of XRCC5 predicts poor prognosis in patients with HCC, and XRCC5 may be a potential biomarker to inhibit the invasion and migration of HCC.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE The incidence of acute myocardial infarction has increased over the past decades in China, and management challenges include an unbalanced economy, disparate resources, and variable access to medical care across the nation. OBJECTIVE To examine the variations in care and outcomes of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction among 3 levels of hospitals in the typical Chinese public hospital model. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This cross-sectional study used data from the China Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry to compare the differences in care and outcomes among patients at 108 hospitals from 31 provinces and municipalities throughout mainland China. Participants included patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction directly admitted to hospitals between January 2013 and September 2014. Data analyses were performed from June 2015 to June 2019. EXPOSURES Care in province-level, prefecture-level, or county-level hospitals in China. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes included presentation, treatments, and major complications. RESULTS A total of 12 695 patients (9593 men [75.6%]; median [interquartile range] age, 63 [54-72] years) were included; 3985 were at province-level hospitals, 6731 were at prefecture-level hospitals, and 1979 were at county-level hospitals. Compared with patients admitted to province-level hospitals, those admitted to prefecture-level and county-level hospitals were older (median [interquartile range] age, 61 [52-70] years vs 63 [54-72] years and 65 [57-75] years) and more likely to be women (815 women [20.5%] vs 1620 women [24.1%] and 667 women [33.7%]). Patients in prefecture-level and county-level hospitals were less likely to use ambulances compared with patients at province-level hospitals (11.6% [95% CI, 10.8%-12.4%] and 12.0% [95% CI, 10.6%-13.5%] vs 19.4% [95% CI, 18.1%-20.7%]; P < .001) and were less likely to experience early presentation, with onset-to-arrival times less than 12 hours for 75.3% (95% CI, 73.9%-76.6%) of patients at province-level hospitals, 70.8% (95% CI, 69.7%-71.9%) of patients at prefecture-level hospitals, and 69.8% (95% CI, 67.7%-71.8%) of patients at county-level hospitals (P < .001). The rates of reperfusion therapy were significantly lower in low-level hospitals (54.3% [95% CI, 53.1%-55.5%] for prefecture-level hospitals and 45.8% [95% CI, 43.6%-48.1%] for county-level hospitals) compared with province-level hospitals (69.4% [95% CI, 67.9%-70.8%]; P < .001). There was a progressively higher rate of in-hospital mortality at the 3 levels of hospitals: 3.1% (95% CI, 2.6%-3.7%) for province-level hospitals, 5.3% (95% CI, 4.8%-5.9%) for prefecture-level hospitals, and 10.2% (95% CI, 8.9%-11.7%) for county-level hospitals (P for trend < .001). After adjustment for patient characteristics, presentation, hospital facility, and treatments, the odds of death remained higher in prefecture-level (odds ratio, 1.39 [95% CI, 1.06-1.84]) and county-level (odds ratio, 1.43 [95% CI, 0.97-2.11]) hospitals compared with province-level hospitals (P for trend = .04). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE These findings suggest that there are significant variations in care and outcomes of patients among the 3 levels of hospitals in China. More efforts should be made to address the identified gaps, particularly in the prefecture-level and county-level hospitals. This work can inform national quality improvements efforts in China and in other developing countries.

Abstract
Acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains a serious life-threatening event. Despite coronary revascularization, patients might still suffer from poor outcomes caused by myocardial no-reflow and ischemic/reperfusion injury. Tongxinluo (TXL), a traditional Chinese medicine, has been preliminarily demonstrated to reduce myocardial no-reflow and ischemic/reperfusion injury. We further hypothesize that TXL treatment is also effective in reducing clinical end points for the patients with STEMI. Methods and results The CTS-AMI trial is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical study in China. An estimated 3,796 eligible patients with STEMI from about 120 centers are randomized 1:1 ratio to TXL or placebo groups. All enrolled patients are orally administrated a loading dose of 8 capsules of TXL or placebo together with dual antiplatelet agents on admission followed by 4 capsules 3 times a day until 12 months. The primary end point is 30-day major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, a composite of cardiac death, myocardial reinfarction, emergency coronary revascularization, and stroke. Secondary end points include each component of the primary end point, 1-year major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, and other efficacy and safety parameters. Conclusions Results of CTS-AMI trial will determine the clinical efficacy and safety of traditional Chinese medicine TXL capsule in the treatment of STEMI patients in the reperfusion era.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Thrombectomy up to 24 hours after stroke onset in patients with specific ischemic brain volumes remains a challenge, because many stroke centers do not apply specialized software to calculate ischemic volumes at advanced imaging. We aimed to establish the association between relative filling time delay on CTP source imaging and ischemic volume parameters and the infarct penumbra to core volume mismatch in patients with acute ischemic stroke. MATERIALS AND METHODS Consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke and with M1 segment MCA with or without terminal ICA occlusions on baseline CTA and CTP within 24 hours of stroke symptom onset were included. Ischemic volumes were analyzed with software based on CTP maps. Relative filling time delay was classified into 4 grades-grade 0: relative filling time delay = 0 seconds; grade 1: relative filling time delay >0 to ≤4 seconds; grade 2: relative filling time delay >4 to ≤8 seconds; and grade 3: relative filling time delay > 8 seconds. Differences in ischemic volume parameters among relative filling time delay grades were tested. RESULTS We recruited 138 patients (median age, 69 years; 62.3% male). Different median volumes of the infarct core (grade 0, 7.3 mL; grade 1, 23.3 mL; grade 2, 45.7 mL; grade 3, 135 mL [P < .001]) and the penumbra (grade 0, 47.6 mL; grade 1, 90 mL; grade 2, 110 mL; grade 3, 92 mL [P = .043]) were observed among relative filling time delay grades. Target mismatch (defined by the criteria of the DEFUSE 3 trial) was identified in 71.7% of the patients (99/138). A relative filling time delay grade ≤ 1 independently predicted target mismatch, with a sensitivity of 0.79 (95% CI, 0.7-0.87) and a specificity of 0.66 (95% CI, 0.49-0.8). CONCLUSIONS Relative filling time delay grade based on CTP source imaging is a simple and effective parameter for evaluating ischemic volumes and target mismatch in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Further studies that compare relative filling time delay grade with clinical functional outcomes are necessary.

Abstract
Two-dimensional systems can host exotic particles called anyons whose quantum statistics are neither bosonic nor fermionic. For example, the elementary excitations of the fractional quantum Hall effect at filling factor ν = 1/m (where m is an odd integer) have been predicted to obey Abelian fractional statistics, with a phase ϕ associated with the exchange of two particles equal to π/m However, despite numerous experimental attempts, clear signatures of fractional statistics have remained elusive. We experimentally demonstrate Abelian fractional statistics at filling factor ν = ⅓ by measuring the current correlations resulting from the collision between anyons at a beamsplitter. By analyzing their dependence on the anyon current impinging on the splitter and comparing with recent theoretical models, we extract ϕ = π/3, in agreement with predictions.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the clinical characteristics of patients with Brucella endocarditis. Methods: The clinical data of 9 patients with Brucella endocarditis admitted to Beijing Ditan Hospital from October 2008 to August 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Through the electronic medical record system of the hospital. Through assessing the electronic medical record system of the hospital, demographic data, main symptoms, vital signs, blood culture, Rose Bengal Plate Agglutination Test, echocardiography, electrocardiogram, chest imaging and other clinical data of included patients were inquired and recorded. Patients were followed up by telephone for medication, operation and outcome. Results: The 9 patients were all Han nationality, aged from 25 to 66 years, 7 out of 9 patients were male, and they came from Hebei, Shandong, Shanxi, Inner Mongolia and Beijing. Of the 9 patients, 5 were farmers, 2 were self-employed, 1 was a technician, and 1 was unemployed. Of the 9 cases, 8 had a history of close contact with cattle and sheep, and 5 had a history of eating beef and mutton. Rose-Bengal Plate Agglutination Test and blood culture were positive in all 9 patients. Aortic valve was involved in 7 out of 9 patients, mitral and tricuspid valve was involved in 1 patient, respectively, and aortic dissection occurred in 1 patient. Condition of 1 patient rapidly deteriorated after admission and finally died during hospitalization despite antibiotic therapy, the remaining patients received long-term antibiotic treatment. A total of 7 patients who underwent valve replacement were followed up. One patient died of cerebral hemorrhage 6 months after operation, and the remaining 6 patients recovered well after valve replacement. Heart failure occurred in all 9 patients, and pericardial effusion occurred in 8 patients. Electrocardiogram showed low voltage of the QRS complex in the limb in 3 cases and poor R-wave progression in V(1)-V(3) lead in 2 cases, and sinus tachycardia in 2 cases. One patient developed non-specific ST-T abnormalities. All patients had fever, 7 patients complained of weakness, and 6 patients complained of palpitations. Among the 9 patients, 7 cases had anemia, 7 patients had pneumonia, 6 had bilateral pleural effusion, 4 had thrombocytopenia. Creatinine was above normal in 4 patients, urine protein was positive in 3 patients, Delta Bilirubin was higher in 3 cases. Conclusions: Patients with Brucella endocarditis often suffer from heart failure and have severe complications. Adequate antibiotic therapy in combination with valve replacement is effective for the treatment of patients with Brucella endocarditis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
It has been reported that coronary artery disease (CAD) is characterized by inflammation and non-obstructive CAD (NOCAD) increases the risk of cardiovascular events (CVEs) compared with ones with normal or near-normal coronary arteries (NNCA), even is similar to obstructive CAD (OCAD). We hypothesized that elevated high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) may be linked to CVEs in those patients with NOCAD.
Purpose
To investigate the predictive role of hs-CRP in patients with NOCAD.
Methods
Of 7,746 consecutive patients with angina-like chest pain admissions, 4,662 eligible patients were enrolled who received coronary artery angiography (CAG) and followed up for the CVEs comprising all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke and late revascularization. According to the results of CAG, the patients were classified as NNCA group (<20% stenosis, n=698, 15.0%), NOCAD group (20–49% stenosis, n=639, 14.3%), and OCAD group (≥50% stenosis, n=3325, 70.7%). They were further subdivided into 3 groups according to baseline hs-CRP levels (<1, 1–3 and >3 mg/L). Proportional hazards models were used to assess the risk of CVEs in all patients enrolled.
Results
A total of 338 patients (7.3%) experienced CVEs during an average of 13403 person-years follow-up. Patients with NOCAD and OCAD had higher rates of CVEs compared to those with NNCA (p<0.05, respectively). In Cox's models after adjustment of confounders, the risk of CVEs elevated with the increasing degrees of CAD with hazard ratio of 2.01 [95% confidence interval (95% CI): 1.07–3.79, p=0.03] for patients with NOCAD and 2.81 (95% CI: 1.60–4.93, p<0.001) for patients with OCAD compared with the NNCA group. Moreover, elevated hs-CRP levels were associated with the severity of coronary lesions and an elevated increased risk of CVEs in patients with NOCAD and OCAD compared those with NNCA (p<0.05, respectively).
Conclusions
Patients with NOCAD had indeed worse outcomes and hs-CRP levels were positively in relation to the CVEs in those with NOCAD, which may help to the risk assessment in ones with NOCAD.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] is recently recognized as a risk factor of atherosclerosis, and the development of coronary artery disease (CAD) in women is not fully understood.
Purpose
The present study aimed to examine the association of Lp(a) levels with the presence and severity of (CAD) in female patients pre- and post-menopause.
Methods
A total of 3712 female patients who received coronary angiography were consecutively enrolled. The level of Lp(a) was measured and compared among patients with and without CAD or myocardial infarction (MI), pre- or post- menopause. The association of Lp(a) with the presence of CAD and the severity of coronary atherosclerosis assessed by Gensini Score were examined.
Results
The average of Lp(a) levels were elevated as age increased in female subjects. Notably, women after menopause had higher Lp(a) levels compared with that before menopause [16.8 mg/dL (IQR 7.54–41.12 mg/dL) vs. 14.7 mg/dL (IQR 6.72–30.82 mg/dL), p=0.002]. Furthermore, multiple logistic regression analysis identified that Lp(a) >30mg/dL was an independent risk factor of CAD in the postmenopausal female (OR1.38, 95% CI 1.13–1.69, p=0.002). Finally, Lp(a) had a positive correlation with Gensini score (r=0.11, p<0.001), and Lp(a) >30mg/dL was an independent risk factor for high Gensini score (OR 1.43, 95% CI 1.14–1.79, p<0.001). While such results were not observed in the premenopausal females.
Baseline characteristics of all patients Before menopause (n=525) Post menopause (n=3187) P value Age, (years) 46 (42–49) 62 (58–68) <0.001* Hypertension, n (%) 231 (44.00) 2097 (65.80) <0.001* Diabetes mellitus, n (%) 68 (12.95) 849 (26.64) <0.001* LDL-C (mmol/L) 2.73±1.05 2.77±0.99 0.366 Lp(a) (mg/dL) 14.7 (6.72–30.82) 16.8 (7.54–41.12) 0.002* Data are expressed as mean ± SD or median (interquartile range) and numbers (percentages). BMI, body mass index; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride; LDL-C, low density lipoprotein cholesterol; HDL-C, high density lipoprotein cholesterol; Lp(a), lipoprotein(a); HsCRP, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein. *Statistically significant differences exist between two groups. CAD, coronary artery disease.
Lp(a) in pre- and post-menopausal women
Conclusion
The present study indicated that circulating Lp(a) levels were independently associated with the presence and severity of CAD in the postmenopausal female, suggesting that further study may be needed to examine the role of Lp(a) in the development of CAD in female individuals with different menopausal status.
