Abstract
A novel S-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst carbon quantum dots (CQDs)/BiFeO3/BiOBr (CBB) was synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method, which was highly effective in activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to photodegrade imidacloprid (IMD) (one of the typical neonicotinoid insecticides (NEOs)) under visible light irradiation. Based on the physicochemical and photoelectrochemical analysis, the super photocatalytic performance of the CBB photocatalyst was contributed to the enhanced separation and transfer of photogenerated electrons (e-) and holes (h+), the activation of PMS by reactive species, and the wider light absorption range induced by CQDs. Moreover, the intermediate products and possible photodegradation pathways of IMD were confirmed through high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) detection and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Although the photodegradation of IMD in the CBB/PMS/Vis system can be affected by the water quality parameters (i.e., acid group anions, pH, and the presence of humic acid (HA)), the synthesized CBB photocatalyst showed excellent photocatalytic performance in multiple natural water samples. This study provides a new idea to construct an effective and efficient heterojunction photocatalyst, which may have great advantages in photocatalytic degradation of NEOs and possibly other emerging contaminants in the aquatic environment.

Abstract
Perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) refer to cognitive deterioration that occurs after surgery or anesthesia. Prolonged isoflurane exposure has potential neurotoxicity and induces PND, but the mechanism is unclear. The glymphatic system clears harmful metabolic waste from the brain. This study sought to unveil the functions of glymphatic system in PND and explore the underlying molecular mechanisms. The PND mice model was established by long term isoflurane anesthesia. The glymphatic function was assessed by multiple in vitro and in vivo methods. An adeno-associated virus was used to overexpress AQP4 and TGN-020 was used to inhibit its function. This research revealed that the glymphatic system was impaired in PND mice and the blunted glymphatic transport was closely associated with the accumulation of inflammatory proteins in the hippocampus. Increasing AQP4 polarization could enhance glymphatic transport and suppresses neuroinflammation, thereby improve cognitive function in the PND model mice. However, a marked impaired glymphatic inflammatory proteins clearance and the more severe cognitive dysfunction were observed when decreasing AQP4 polarization. Therefore, long-term isoflurane anesthesia causes blunted glymphatic system by inducing AQP4 depolarization, enhanced the AQP4 polarization can alleviate the glymphatic system malfunction and reduce the neuroinflammatory response, which may be a potential treatment strategy for PND.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is characterized by impaired cognitive function following general anesthesia and surgery. Oxidative stress is a significant pathophysiological manifestation underlying POCD. Previous studies have reported that the decline of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) -dependent sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) contributes to the activation of oxidative stress. In this study, we investigated whether pretreatment of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), an NAD+ intermediate, improves oxidative stress and cognitive function in POCD. The animal model of POCD was established in C57BL/6 J mice through 6 h isoflurane anesthesia-induced cognitive impairment. Mice were intraperitoneally injected with NMN for 7 days prior to anesthesia, after which oxidative stress and cognitive function were assessed. The level of oxidative stress was determined using flow cytometry analysis and assey kits. The fear condition test and the Y-maze test were utilized to evaluate contextual and spatial memory. Our results showed that cognitive impairment and increased oxidative stress were observed in POCD mice, as well as downregulation of NAD+ levels and related protein expressions of SIRT1 and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) in the hippocampus. And NMN supplementation could effectively prevent the decline of NAD+ and related proteins, and reduce oxidative stress and cognitive disorders after POCD. Mechanistically, the findings suggested that protection on cognitive function mediated by NMN pretreatment in POCD mice may be regulated by NAD+-SIRT1 signaling pathway. This study indicated that NMN preconditioning reduced oxidative stress damage and alleviated cognitive impairment in POCD mice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is characterized by impaired learning and memory. 6 h duration isoflurane anesthesia is an important factor to induce POCD, and the dysfunction of ryanodine receptor (RyR) in the hippocampus may be involved in this process. We investigated the expression of RyR3 in the hippocampus of mice after 6-h duration isoflurane anesthesia, as well as the improvement of RyR receptor agonist caffeine on POCD mice, while attempting to identify the underlying molecular mechanism. MATERIALS We constructed a POCD model using 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice that were exposed to 6-h duration isoflurane. Prior to the three-day cognitive behavioral experiment, RyR agonist caffeine were injected. Fear conditioning and location memory tests were used in behavioral studies. We also exposed the mouse neuroblastoma cell line Neuro-2a (N2A) to 6-h duration isoflurane exposure to simulate the conditions of in vivo cognitive dysfunction. We administered ryanodine receptor agonist (caffeine) and inhibitor (ryanodine) to N2a cells. Following that, we performed a series of bioinformatics analysis to discover proteins that are involved in the development of cognitive dysfunction. Rt-PCR and Western blot were used to assess mRNA level and protein expression. RESULTS 6-h duration isoflurane anesthesia induced cognitive dysfunction and increased RyR3 mRNA levels in hippocampus. The mRNA levels of RyR3 in cultured N2a cells after anesthesia were comparable to those in vivo, and the RyR agonist caffeine corrected the expression of some cognitive-related phenotypic proteins that were disturbed after anesthesia. Intraperitoneal injection of RyR agonist caffeine can improve cognitive function after isoflurane anesthesia in mice, and bioinformatics analyses suggest that CaMKⅣ may be involved in the molecular mechanism. CONCLUSION Ryanodine receptor agonist caffeine may improve cognitive dysfunction in mice after isoflurane anesthesia.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) is a representative novel carbonaceous nanomaterial, and neonicotinoid insecticides (NEOs) are currently the insecticides with the highest market share in the world. Their widespread application deservedly leads to their release to the environment. Thus, the complex interactions of these two types of organic compounds have attracted extensive attention. In this study, the effects of GO and its derivatives, reduced GO (RGO) and oxidized GO (OGO), on the photolysis of imidacloprid (IMD) (a typical NEO) under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation were systematically investigated. The results showed that the presence of the graphene-based nanomaterials (GNs) largely depressed the photodegradation of IMD, and the inhibition degree followed the order of RGO > GO > OGO. This was because the sp2 π-conjugated structure in the GNs caused light-shielding effect and attenuated the direct photolysis of IMD, even though the GNs-generated reactive oxygen species (ROS) promoted the indirect photodegradation of IMD to a certain extent. Additionally, the rich O-functionalized GO and OGO altered the photolysis pathway of IMD and induced more toxic intermediate products. These results highlight the implication of carbonaceous nanomaterials on the behavior, fate and potential risk of NEOs in aqueous systems.

Abstract
Opioid harm can vary by opioid type. This observational study examined the effect of opioid type (oxycodone vs. tapentadol) on rates of persistent postoperative opioid use ('persistence'). We linked hospital and community pharmacy data for surgical patients who were dispensed discharge opioids between 1 January 2016 and 30 September 2021. Patients were grouped by opioid experience ('opioid-naive' having received no opioids in the 3 months before discharge) and formulation of discharge opioid (immediate release only or modified release ± immediate release). Mixed-effects logistic regression models predicted persistence (continued use of any opioid at 90 days after discharge), controlling for key persistence risk factors. Of the 122,836 patients, 2.31% opioid-naive and 27.24% opioid-experienced patients met the criteria for persistence. For opioid-naive patients receiving immediate release opioids, there was no significant effect of opioid type. Tapentadol modified release was associated with significantly lower odds of persistence compared with oxycodone modified release, OR (95%CI) 0.81 (0.69-0.94) for opioid-naive patients and 0.81 (0.71-0.93) for opioid-experienced patients. Among patients who underwent orthopaedic surgery (n = 19,832), regardless of opioid experience or opioid formulation, the odds of persistence were significantly lower for those who received tapentadol compared with oxycodone. This was one of the largest and most extensive studies of persistent postoperative opioid use, and the first that specifically examined persistence with tapentadol. There appeared to be lower odds of persistence for tapentadol compared with oxycodone among key subgroups, including patients prescribed modified release opioids and those undergoing orthopaedic surgery.

Abstract
Background Due to high rates of incidence and disability, postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) currently receives a lot of clinical attention. Disturbance of fatty acid oxidation is a potential pathophysiological manifestation underlying POCD. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) is a significant transcription factor of fatty acid oxidation that facilitates the transfer of fatty acids into the mitochondria for oxidation. The potential role of PPARα intervention in POCD warrants consideration. Objective The present study is aimed to investigate whether PPARα agonist fenofibrate (FF) could protect long-term isoflurane anesthesia-induced POCD model and to explore the potential underlying function of fatty acid oxidation in the process. Methods We established the POCD model via 6 h long-term isoflurane anesthesia in vivo with C57BL/6J mice and in vitro with N2a cells. Cells and mice were pretreated with PPARα agonist FF before anesthesia, after which fatty acid oxidation and cognitive function were assessed. The level of fatty acid oxidation-related proteins was determined using western blotting. The contextual fear conditioning test was utilized to evaluate mice's learning and memory. Results Our results showed that 6 h long-term isoflurane anesthesia induced contextual memory damage in mice, accompanied by decreases of fatty acid oxidation-related proteins (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1α, carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A, and PPARα) both in the hippocampus of POCD mice and in N2a cells. In the N2a cell model, pretreatment of PPARα agonist FF led to the upregulation of fatty acid oxidation-related proteins. In vivo results showed that preconditioned FF reached similar effects. More crucially, FF has been shown to reduce cognitive damage in mice after long-term isoflurane anesthesia. Additionally, our data showed that after blocking fatty acid oxidation by Etomoxir, FF failed to protect cognitive function from long-term isoflurane anesthesia. Conclusions Pretreatment of PPARα agonist FF can protect against long-term isoflurane anesthesia-induced POCD by enhancing fatty acid oxidation.

Abstract
Objectives Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is characterized by recurrent episodes of severe anxiety after exposure to traumatic events. It is believed that these episodes are triggered at least in part by environmental stimuli associated with the precipitating trauma through classical conditioning, termed conditioned fear. However, traditional methods of conditioned fear memory extinction are frequently ineffective for PTSD treatment due to the contribution of non-associative sensitization caused by trauma. Anesthetics have shown promise for treating various psychiatric diseases such as depression. Methods In this study, we examined if the inhaled anesthetic sevoflurane can suppress stress-enhanced fear learning (SEFL) in PTSD model mice. Model mice exposed to 2.4% sevoflurane for 6 h exhibited reduced freezing time and behavioral anxiety compared to sham-treated model mice. To explore the underlying mechanisms, we evaluated the regional expression levels of glucocorticoid receptors (GRs), cannabinoid CB1 receptors (CB1Rs), D1 dopamine receptors (D1Rs), and D2 dopamine receptors (D2Rs). Results We verified that both GR and CB1R were significantly upregulated in the hippocampus, amygdaloid nucleus, and prefrontal cortex (PFC) of model mice, while D1R and D2R were downregulated. All of these expression changes were partially normalized in the PFC by 6 h but not with 2 h sevoflurane exposure. Conclusions These results showed that sevoflurane exposure following traumatic events may be an effective treatment for PTSD.

Abstract
Transport of graphene-based nanomaterials in porous media is closely related to background cations. This study examines the impacts of ionic specificity on the mobility of graphene oxide (GO) and reduced GO (RGOs) in saturated quartz sand. The transport of GO/RGOs as affected by monovalent cation Na+ followed extended Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (XDLVO) theory, whereas in solutions containing multivalent cations Zn2+ and Al3+, cation bridging effect played a dominant role in the transport inhibition. Moreover, the adverse effects of the divalent cations on GO/RGOs migration obeyed the Hofmeister series, i.e. following the order of Pb2+ > Cd2+ > Zn2+. Batch adsorption experiments and DFT calculations further confirmed that cations of higher valences, and of the same valence but with larger ionic radii (smaller hydrated radii) interacted more strongly with GO/RGOs and sand grains via forming inner-sphere complexes. Thus, more favorable retention was observed through cation bridging between particles and collectors, and also via enhanced straining caused by particles aggregation. Furthermore, the sulfide-reduced GO (SR-GO) that contained more surface O-functional groups was impacted more remarkably by strong complexing cations than the pristine GO (P-GO), while the mobility of poorly functionalized irradiation-reduced GO (IR-GO) was less affected by cation bridging effect.

Abstract
Objectives Long-term isoflurane anesthesia exposure could result in postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). Preoperative stress is also reported to be a risk factor of POCD. However, it is unknown whether acute stress could impair memory after long-term isoflurane anesthesia. Methods In this study, we categorized the mice with acute stress into mild (30 min restraint stress), moderate (60 min restraint stress), and severe (120 min restraint stress) stress groups and then we used Open-Field Test (OFT) to detect whether different scales of acute restraint stress successfully induced acute stress in mice. The memory performance of mice was measured using contextual and cued memory test, and the brain-derived neurotrophic factor protein levels of hippocampus was detected by Western blot. Results We verified that mild stress has pro-cognitive effect, but severe stress has amnestic effect. Moreover, we found that mild and moderate other than severe acute stress could partially attenuate the memory impairment induced by long-term isoflurane anesthesia. Conclusion Mild and moderate acute stress could partially attenuate the memory impairment induced by long-term isoflurane anesthesia.

Abstract
AIM Astrocytes are connected by gap junctions Connexin43 (GJs-Cx43) forming an extensive intercellular network and maintain brain homeostasis. Perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND) occurs frequently after anesthesia/surgery and worsens patient outcome, but the neural circuit mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to determine the effects of the GJs-Cx43-mediated astrocytic network on PND and ascertain the underlying neural circuit mechanism. METHODS Male C57BL/6 mice were treated with long-term isoflurane exposure to construct a mouse model of PND. We also exposed primary mouse astrocytes to long-term isoflurane exposure to simulate the conditions of in vivo cognitive dysfunction. Behavioral tests were performed using the Y-maze and fear conditioning (FC) tests. Manganese-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MEMRI) and resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) were used to investigate brain activity and functional connectivity. Western blot and flow cytometry analysis were used to assess protein expression. RESULTS Reconfiguring the astrocytic network by increasing GJs-Cx43 expression can modulate 22 subregions affected by PND in three ways: reversed activation, reversed inhibition, and intensified activation. The brain functional connectivity analysis further suggests that PND is a brain network disorder that includes sleep-wake rhythm-related brain regions, contextual and fear memory-related subregions, the hippocampal-amygdala circuit, the septo-hippocampal circuit, and the entorhinal-hippocampal circuit. Notably, remodeling the astrocytic network by upregulation of GJs-Cx43 can partially reverse the abnormalities in the above circuits. Pathophysiological degeneration in hippocampus is one of the primary hallmarks of PND pathology, and long-term isoflurane anesthesia contributes to oxidative stress and neuroinflammation in the hippocampus. However, promoting the formation of GJs-Cx43 ameliorated cognitive dysfunction induced by long-term isoflurane anesthesia through the attenuation of oxidative stress in hippocampus. CONCLUSION Enhancing GJs-Cx43 coupling can improve brain network abnormalities and cognitive impairment induced by long-term isoflurane anesthesia, its mechanisms might be associated with the regulation of oxidative stress and neuroinflammation.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a common complication following anesthesia and surgery that might lead to a decline in learning and memory. Oxidative stress damage is one of the pathogenic mechanisms underlying POCD. Recent studies had shown that the integrated stress response (ISR) is closely related to oxidative stress. The core response of the ISR is phosphorylation of eIF2α. Various cellular stress stimuli trigger activation of eIF2α kinases, thus causing phosphorylation of eIF2α. ISR is associated with many neurodegenerative diseases; however, the relationship between POCD and ISR has not been defined. In the present study, the tibias in 4-month-old male C57BL/6 mice were fractured under isoflurane anesthesia to establish the POCD animal model. Cognitive function was assessed by fear conditioning tests and the Y-maze from 3 to 14 days post-surgery. Western blot was used to determine the levels of PeIF2α, eIF2α, ATF4, GADD34, CHOP, BDNF, proBDNF, and p-NR2B expression. The levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured to determine oxidative stress in hippocampal tissues. After tibial fracture surgery in mice, the hippocampus had increased levels of PeIF2α, ATF4, GADD34, and CHOP protein, ROS-positive cells, and average fluorescence intensity, SOD activity was decreased, and the MDA level was increased. The ISR inhibitor, ISRIB, reduced the levels of PeIF2α, ATF4, GADD34, and CHOP protein, and alleviated oxidative stress in the hippocampus of POCD mice. Moreover, ISRIB ameliorated cognitive dysfunction in POCD mice. Our findings suggested that targeting ISR may represent an effective approach to combat POCD.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the effect of dormant polyploid giant cancer cells (PGCC) on nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) recurrence and to clarify the role of inhibition of autophagy in inhibiting NPC-PGCC formation and preventing NPC recurrence. Methods: NPC cells-derived PGCC (NPC-PGCC) were induced by paclitaxel (PTX), and the morphology, polyploid characteristics and cell activity of PGCC were identified by light microscopy, immunofluorescence and Live/Dead cell double staining assays. RNA-seq was used to analyze the differentially expressed genes between NPC-PGCC and diploid nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells CNE2. Functional enrichment and pathway annotation analysis of differentially expressed genes were performed using Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). The level of autophagy in NPC-PGCC cells was assessed by Western Blot and transmission electron microscopy analysis. The role of autophagy in the formation of NPC-PGCC and the effect of NPC-PGCC on the recurrence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma were studied using a highly clinically relevant mouse nasopharyngeal carcinoma recurrence model. Statistical analysis was performed using GraphPad Prism 6 and P-values<0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results: NPC-PGCC induced by paclitaxel had the characteristics of burst-like division after dormancy. GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analyses identified the significant biological processes and pathways mainly concentrated in autophagy and related pathways involving the differentially expressed genes between NPC-PGCC and diploid nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells CNE2. The autophagy level was significantly enhanced in NPC-PGCC cells. In a highly clinically relevant mouse nasopharyngeal carcinoma recurrence model, the number of PGCC in the primary tumor of the nude mice treated with cisplatin were higher than those of the other groups. In nude mice pretreated with autophagy inhibitor and then co-treatment with autophagy inhibitor and cisplatin, the number of PGCC in primary tumors was less and the recurrence rate was significantly lower than in other groups. Conclusions: The mechanism of dormant polyploid giant cancer cells formation is related to autophagy. Inhibition of autophagy can inhibit the formation of PGCC and thus prevent the recurrence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a common postoperative complication involving the central nervous system, but the underlying mechanism is not well understood. Neuroinflammation secondary to surgery and anesthesia is strongly correlated with POCD. A key aspect of neuroinflammation is microglia activation. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM)2, which is highly expressed in microglia, is an innate immune receptor that modulates microglia function. In this study we investigated the role of TREM2 in cognitive impairment and microglia-mediated neuroinflammation using a mouse model of POCD and in vitro systems. We found that hippocampus-dependent learning and memory were impaired in POCD mice, which was accompanied by activation of microglia and downregulation of TREM2. Pretreatment with the TREM2 agonist heat shock protein (HSP)60 inhibited surgery-induced microglia activation and alleviated postoperative cognitive impairment. In BV2 microglial cells, the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor LY294002 significantly reversed the attenuation of TREM2 activation on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced neuroinflammation and abrogated the protective effect of activated TREM2 against LPS-induced neuronal injury in a microglia/neuron coculture system. Accordingly, the beneficial effects of TREM2 activation on cognitive function were reversed by preoperative administration of LY294002 in the POCD mouse model. These results demonstrate that TREM2 is involved in the regulation of the inflammatory response mediated by microglia and cognitive impairment following surgery. Activation of TREM2 can attenuate neuroinflammation by modulating PI3K/protein kinase B (Akt) signaling, thereby alleviating postoperative learning and memory deficits.

Abstract
The permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) of the ^{171}Yb (I=1/2) atom is measured with atoms held in an optical dipole trap. By enabling a cycling transition that is simultaneously spin-selective and spin-preserving, a quantum nondemolition measurement with a spin-detection efficiency of 50% is realized. A systematic effect due to parity mixing induced by a static E field is observed, and is suppressed by averaging between measurements with optical dipole traps in opposite directions. The coherent spin precession time is found to be much longer than 300 s. The EDM is determined to be d(^{171}Yb)=(-6.8±5.1_{stat}±1.2_{syst})×10^{-27} e cm, leading to an upper limit of |d(^{171}Yb)|<1.5×10^{-26} e cm (95% C.L.). These measurement techniques can be adapted to search for the EDM of ^{225}Ra.

Abstract
With the widespread use of volatile anesthetic agents in the prolonged sedation for COVID-19 pneumonia and ARDS, there is an urgent need to investigate the effects and treatments of lengthy low-concentration inhaled anesthetics exposure on cognitive function in adults. Previous studies showed that general anesthetics dose- and exposure length-dependently induced neuroinflammatory response and cognitive decline in neonatal and aging animals. The anti-diabetes drug metformin has anti-neuroinflammation effects by modulating microglial polarization and inhibiting astrocyte activation. In this study, we demonstrated that the inhalation of 1.3% isoflurane (a sub-minimal alveolar concentration, sub-MAC) for 6 h impaired recognition of novel objects from Day 1 to Day3 in adult mice. Prolonged sub-MAC isoflurane exposure also triggered typically reactive microglia and A1-like astrocytes in the hippocampus of adult mice on Day 3 after anesthesia. In addition, prolonged isoflurane inhalation switched microglia into a proinflammatory M1 phenotype characterized by elevated CD68 and iNOS as well as decreased arginase-1 and IL-10. Metformin pretreatment before anesthesia enhanced cognitive performance in the novel object test. The positive cellular modifications promoted by metformin pretreatment included the inhibition of reactive microglia and A1-like astrocytes and the polarization of microglia into M2 phenotype in the hippocampus of adult mice. In conclusion, prolonged sub-MAC isoflurane exposure triggered significant hippocampal neuroinflammation and cognitive decline in adult mice which can be alleviated by metformin pretreatment via inhibiting reactive microglia and A1-like astrocytes and promoting microglia polarization toward anti-inflammatory phenotype in the hippocampus.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the imaging features of patients with developmental stenosis of atlas (small atlas) complicated with degenerative cervical myelopathy and to explore the diagnostic criteria of small atlas. Methods: The clinical data of patients with degenerative cervical myelopathy treated by posterior cervical laminoplasty and resection of posterior arch of atlas from 2006 to 2020 in the Department of Orthopedics, Peking University Third Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Sixteen cases had spinal cord compression at C1 level after the exclusion of ossification of cervical posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) and other pathology. These cases were suspected small atlas (small atlas group). Forty-six cases without posterior arch resection in the same period were selected as control group. The middle sagittal diameter of atlas and the vertical distance from posterior tubercle of atlas to occipitoaxial line under CT in both groups were compared. The sagittal diameter of the spinal canal at the atlas level under MRI, the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score for functional state of cervical spine before operation and at last follow-up were also measured. Results: There were 9 males and 7 females in the small atlas group, aged (63±12) years. There were 21 males and 25 females in the control group, aged (57±10) years. The patients in both group were followed-up for at least one year. The sagittal diameter of atlas in the small atlas group was (26.4±3.1) mm, which was significantly smaller than that in the control group [(29.6±2.2) mm, P=0.010]. The vertical distance from the posterior tubercle of atlas to the occipitoaxial line in the small atlas group was larger than that in the control group[(6.79±1.17) mm vs (5.57±1.29) mm, P=0.001]. The diameter of atlas canal in the small atlas group was (8.25±1.44) mm which was significantly smaller than that in the control group [(13.00±1.66) mm, P<0.001]. The JOA score of the small atlas group before operation and at the last follow-up were both slightly lower than that in the control group (both P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the recovery rate of JOA score between the two groups (61.9% vs 66.0%, P=0.066). Among the 16 cases in the small atlas group, 5 cases of occipital-axial connection were located at the posterior 1/3 of the posterior arch of atlas, and 11 cases of occipital-axial connection were completely located at the posterior arch of atlas. Conclusions: The effective sagittal diameter of atlas is smaller in small atlas group which can lead to more severe cervical myelopathy. The presence of a small atlas should be highly suspected when the sagittal diameter of atlas canal is less than 26 mm under CT. The existence of the small atlas should be alert when the occipitalaxial line is located at the dorsal 1/3 or behind of the posterior arch of atlas.

Abstract
Background RATIONALE 302 (NCT03430843) an open-label, phase III study of second-line treatment of advanced/metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), reported that tislelizumab, relative to investigator-chosen chemotherapy (ICC), was associated with improvements in overall survival and a favorable safety profile. This study assessed the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and ESCC-related symptoms of patients in RATIONALE 302. Methods Adults with advanced/metastatic ESCC whose disease progressed following prior systemic therapy were randomized 1 : 1 to receive either tislelizumab or ICC (paclitaxel, docetaxel, or irinotecan). HRQoL was measured using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 items (EORTC QLQ-C30), the EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire Oesophageal Cancer Module 18 items (QLQ-OES18), and the EuroQoL Five-Dimensions Five-Levels (EQ-5D-5L) visual analogue scale. Mixed effect modeling for repeated measurements examined changes from baseline to weeks 12 and 18. The Kaplan–Meier method was used to examine time to deterioration. Results Overall, 512 patients were randomized to tislelizumab (n = 256) or ICC (n = 256). The tislelizumab arm maintained QLQ-C30 global health status/quality whereas the ICC arm worsened at week 12 {difference in least square (LS) mean change: 5.8 [95% confidence interval (CI): 2.0-9.5], P = 0.0028} and week 18 [difference in LS mean change: 8.1 (95% CI: 3.4-12.8), P = 0.0008]. Physical functioning (week 18) and fatigue (weeks 12 and 18) worsened less in the tislelizumab compared with the ICC arm. The tislelizumab arm improved in reflux symptoms, whereas the ICC worsened at week 12 [difference in LS mean change: −4.1 (95% CI: −7.6 to −0.6), P = 0.0229]. The visual analogue scale remained consistent in the tislelizumab arm whereas it worsened in the ICC arm. The hazard of time to deterioration was lower in tislelizumab patients compared with ICC for physical functioning and reflux. Conclusions HRQoL, including fatigue symptoms and physical functioning, was maintained in patients with advanced or metastatic ESCC receiving tislelizumab compared with ICC-treated patients. These results provide additional support for the benefits of tislelizumab in this patient population. Global health status and HRQoL remained consistent in the tislelizumab arm whereas the ICC arm experienced worsening. Fatigue and physical functioning worsened in both arms; however, the worsening was greater in the ICC arm. The tislelizumab arm was at lower risk of reaching the threshold for worsening in physical functioning and reflux.

Abstract
Porcine embryonic loss during early gestation is a serious problem in swine production. Improving embryonic survival can be achieved by maternal manipulation. Protein and energy are two major components of the diet, which play decisive roles in embryonic survival. This study was performed to evaluate the effects of enhancing maternal protein or energy intake on embryonic survival during early gestation in gilts and to explore the underlying mechanism. From day (d) 0 to 30 of gestation, 40 gilts (Landrace × York) were randomly allocated to 5 diets according to daily intake of low (L, National Research Council (NRC) recommendation for gestation gilts), medium (M, 20% higher than NRC) or high (H, 40% higher than NRC) CP or metabolisable energy (ME) (LCPLME, MCPLME, HCPLME, LCPHME, HCPHME). Gilts were sacrificed on d 30 of gestation, and number of foetuses and corpora lutea, embryonic survival rate, uterine weight, and total volume of allantoic fluid were recorded or calculated. Gene expression was determined by Quantitative Real-time PCR (qPCR), western blot or immunohistochemistry. Results showed that increasing protein or ME intake significantly increased embryonic survival rate. Compared with diet LCPLME, plasma progesterone (P4) concentration in diet LCPHME increased at d 14 and d 30 of gestation. Progesterone receptor (PGR) was found not to be expressed in the epithelia but was strongly expressed in the stroma of the endometrium. Increasing protein or ME intake did not alter PGR expression in the endometrium. There was also no change in the amount of P4, hepatocyte growth factor, and fibroblast growth factor-7 in the endometrium. The mRNA abundance of cationic amino acid transporter 1 in the endometrium in diet LCPHME and HCPHME was significantly lower than in diet LCPLME. Diet HCPLME showed a tendency to increase neutral amino acid transporter 1 mRNA expression in the endometrium compared to diet LCPLME (P = 0.087). In conclusion, increasing maternal protein or ME intake had a positive effect on the embryonic survival. Increased protein intake by 20 or 40% did not alter plasma P4 level, but increasing ME intake by 40% improved plasma P4 concentration at d 14 and 30 of gestation. Increasing maternal protein or ME intake did not induce PGR expression in the endometrium. Maternal protein and energy intake likely mediate transportation of cationic and neutral amino acids from mother to foetus to affect embryonic survival and development.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the application value of plasma heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A2/B1(hnRNP A2B1), β-amyloid 42(Aβ42) and phosphorylated tau protein(P-tau) levels in elderly patients in the preoperative diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment(MCI). Methods: A total of 200 patients who underwent elective surgery at Tianjin Third Central Hospital from June 2020 to March 2021were Enrolled, regardless of gender, age 65-80 years old. According to the international MCI working group standards and the European Alzheimer's Disease Federation working group standards, patients were divided into MCI group and control group. There were 58 males and 42 females in each group. The patient's plasma hnRNP A2/B1, Aβ42 and P-tau levels were detected before operation. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the diagnosis of MCI were calculated. The receiver operating characteristic curve were drew to evaluate the diagnostic value of each index. Results: The plasma levels of hnRNP A2/B1, Aβ42 and P-tau in the MCI group were 310.0 (275.1, 344.2), 34.5 (24.9, 42.5), 190.4 (150.4, 301.7) ng/L, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of the control group [272.7 (239.6, 291.5), 18.7 (14.7, 26.6), 140.0 (101.8, 217.5) ng/L]. The differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Taking the international MCI working group standard as the gold standard, the sensitivity, specificity and area under the ROC curve (AUC) of plasma hnRNP A2/B1 for predicting MCI were 80%, 61%, and 0.781, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity and AUC of plasma Aβ42 for predicting MCI were 78%, 73%, and 0.744. The sensitivity, specificity, and AUC of P-tau for predicting MCI were 51%, 79%, and 0.675, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity and AUC of hnRNP A2/B1 and Aβ42 in predicting MCI were not statistically significant (all P>0.05), but the sensitivity of both were higher than P-tau (all P<0.001). Compared with P-tau, the AUC of plasma hnRNP A2/B1 was higher when predicting MCI (P<0.05). When the three indicators were combined, the sensitivity was 82%, and the AUC was 0.842, both of which were the highest, but the specificity reduced (71%) (all P<0.05). Conclusions: Plasma hnRNP A2/B1 combined with Aβ42 and P-tau levels can improve the sensitivity and accuracy of MCI diagnosis in elderly MCI patients before surgery, and have the greatest diagnostic efficiency. It has certain application value.

Abstract
General anesthesia is widely utilized in the clinic for surgical and diagnostic procedures. However, growing evidence suggests that anesthetic exposure may affect cognitive function negatively. Unfortunately, little is known about the underlying mechanisms and efficient prevention and therapeutic strategies for the anesthesia-induced cognitive dysfunction. 5-HT7R, a serotonin receptor family member, is functionally associated with learning and memory. It has recently become a potential therapeutic target in various neurological diseases as its ligands have a wide range of neuropharmacological effects. However, it remains unknown the role of 5-HT7R in the long-term isoflurane anesthesia-induced memory impairment and whether prior activation or blockade of 5-HT7R before anesthesia has modulating effects on this memory impairment. In this study, 5-HT7R selective agonist LP-211 and 5-HT7R selective antagonist SB-269970 were pretreated intraperitoneally to mice before anesthesia; their effects on the cognitive performance of mice were assessed using fear conditioning test and novel object recognition test. Furthermore, the transcriptional level of 5-HT7R in the hippocampus was detected using qRT-PCR, and proteomics was conducted to probe the underlying mechanisms. As a result, long-term exposure to isoflurane anesthesia caused memory impairment and an increase in hippocampal 5-HT7R mRNA expression, which could be attenuated by SB-269970 pretreatment but not LP-211pretreatment. According to the proteomics results, the antiamnestic effect of SB-269970 pretreatment was probably attributed to its action on the gene expression of Slc6a11, Itpka, Arf3, Srcin1, and Epb41l2, and synapse organization in the hippocampus. In conclusion, 5-HT7R is involved in the memory impairment induced by long-term isoflurane anesthesia, and the prior blockade of 5-HT7R with SB-269970 protects the memory impairment. This finding may help to improve the understanding of the long-term isoflurane anesthesia-induced memory impairment and to construct potential preventive and therapeutic strategies for the adverse effects after long-term isoflurane exposure.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the clinical effect of minimally invasive duodenum preserving pancreatic head resection(DPPHR) for benign and pre-malignant lesions of pancreatic head. Methods: The clinical data of patients with diagnosis of benign or pre-malignant pancreatic head tumor were retrospectively collected and analyzed,all of them underwent laparoscopic or robotic DPPHR between October 2015 and September 2021 at Division of Gastrointestinal and Pancreatic surgery,Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital. Thirty-three patients were enrolled with 10 males and 23 females. The age(M(IQR)) was 54(32) years old(range: 11 to 77 years old) with body mass index of 21.9(2.9)kg/m2(range: 18.1 to 30.1 kg/m2). The presenting symptoms included abdominal pain(n=12), Whipple triad(n=2), and asymptomatic(n=19), among them there were 7 patients with hypertension and 1 patient with diabetes mellitus. There were 19 patients diagnosed as American Society of Anesthesiologists class Ⅰ and 14 patient as class Ⅱ. The student t test,U test, χ2 test or Fisher exact test was used to compare continuous data or categorized data,respectively. All the perioperative data and metabolic morbidity were analyzed and experiences on minimally invasive DPPHR was concluded. Results: Fourteen patients underwent laparoscopic DPPHR,while the rest of 19 patients received robotic DPPHR. Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging was used in 19 patients to guide operation. Five patients were performed pancreatico-gastrostomy and the rest 28 patients underwent pancreaticojejunostomy. Pathological outcomes confirmed 9 solid pseudo-papillary neoplasms, 9 intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms, 7 serous cystic neoplasms, 6 pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, 1 mucous cystic neoplasm, 1 chronic pancreatitis. The operative time was (309.4±50.3) minutes(range:180 to 420 minutes),and the blood loss was (97.9±48.3)ml(range:20 to 200 ml). Eighteen patients suffered from postoperative complications,including 3 patients experienced severe complications(Clavien-Dindo Grade ≥Ⅲ). Pancreatic fistula occurred in 16 patients,including 8 patients with biochemical leak,7 patients with grade B pancreatic fistula and 1 patient with grade C pancreatic fistula. No one suffered from the duodenal necrosis and none perioperative death was occurred. The length of hospital stay was 14(7) days (range:6 to 87 days). The follow-up was 22.6(24.5)months(range:2 to 74 months). None suffered from recurrence or metastasis. During the follow-up,all the patients were free of refractory cholangitis. Moreover,in the term of endocrine dysfunction,no postoperative new onset of diabetes mellitus were observed in the long-term follow-up. However,in the view of exocrine insufficiency,pancreatic exocrine insufficiency and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) was complicated in 2 and 1 patient,respectively,with the supplement of pancreatic enzyme,steatorrhea and weight loss relieved,but NAFLD was awaited to be seen. Conclusions: Minimally invasive DPPHR is feasible and safe for benign or pre-malignant lesions of pancreatic head. Moreover,it is oncological equivalent to pancreaticoduodenectomy with preservation of metabolic function without refractory cholangitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dysfunction of airway epithelial cells in patients with asthma is closely with the occurrence and development of allergic asthma. Finding the differences of airway epithelium between asthmatic patients and normal patients is helpful to find out new treatment strategies. METHODS First, three original microarray datasets (GSE89809, GSE41861, GSE104468) from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) dataset were used to assess differentially expressed genes in the epithelial tissues between patients with allergic asthma and healthy controls. Then, 10 ng/mL TGF-β1 treated BEAS-2B cells and rats with ovalbumin induced allergic asthma were performed to confirm our assumption from the gene expression analysis with microarrays. RESULTS Top ten hub significant difference genes were obtained by Cytohubba plug-in from GSE41861, and found that androgen receptor (AR) was closely associated with the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, especially MAPK1 and MAPK14. After treated with the TGF-β1 treated BEAS-2B cells and rats with allergic asthma, we found that 5α-dihydrotestosterone (5α-DHT), AR agonist, significantly decreased the Th2 inflammation (IL-25 and IL-33), MAPK1 and MAPK14 proteins expression in vitro and in vivo. The roles of 5α-DHT were similar with the results of chicanine (a p38 MAPK and ERK1/2 inhibitor), but the roles of 5α-DHT were masked by the C16-PAF (a MAPK and MEK/ERK activator) treatment. CONCLUSION Androgen receptor limits the secretion of Th2 inflammatory factors by downregulating MAPK1 and MAPK14 in the TGF-β1 treated BEAS-2B cells and rats with ovalbumin induced allergic asthma, which plays a critical role for the therapeutics of patients with asthma.

Abstract
The transport behaviors of nanomaterials, in especial multifunctional nanohybrids have not been well disclosed until now. In this study, environmentally relevant conditions, including cation types, ionic strength and pH, were selected to investigate the transport and retention of graphene oxide-hematite (GO-Fe2O3) nanohybrids and a photoaged product in saturated sandy columns. Results show that more hybridization of hematite led to decreased negative surface charge, while increased particle size and hydrophobicity of the nanohybrids, which depressed their transport according to extented Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (XDLVO) theory. However, the inhibitory transport of photoaged nanohybrids was attributed to their distinct surface roughness caused by relatively high hybridization and photoirradiation. Notably the restrained transport was alleviated in the CaCl2 saturated media, since the less surface O-functional groups of the corresponding nanohybrids reduced the cation bridging effect caused by Ca2+. Similarly, increasing pH promoted the transport of the nanohybrids in NaCl saturated media, particularly for the nanohybrids that contained rich O-functional groups, but exerted inconspicuous effect on mobility of the nanohybrids in CaCl2 saturated media. These observations highlight that both XDLVO interactions and surface roughness may work together to impact the transport and fate of the burgeoning, versatile nanohybrids in the environment.

Abstract
General anesthetics can induce cognitive impairments and increase the risk of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, the underlying mechanisms are still unknown. Our previous studies shown that long-term isoflurane exposure induced peripheral and central insulin resistance (IR) in adult mice and aggravated IR in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) mice. Clinical and preclinical studies revealed an association between impaired insulin signaling and tau pathology in AD and other tauopathies. We investigated if alleviation of hippocampal IR by the antidiabetic agent metformin could reduce tau hyperphosphorylation and cognitive decline induced by isoflurane in mice. The effects of prolonged (6 h) isoflurane anesthesia on hippocampal IR, hippocampal tau hyperphosphorylation, and hippocampus-dependent cognitive function were evaluated in wild type (WT) adult mice and the high-fat diet plus streptozotocin (HFD/STZ) mouse model of T2DM. Here we shown that isoflurane and HFD/STZ dramatically and synergistically induced hippocampal IR and fear memory impairment. Metformin pretreatment strongly ameliorated hippocampal IR and cognitive dysfunction caused by isoflurane in WT mice, but was less effective in T2DM mice. Isoflurane also induced hippocampal tau hyperphosphorylation and metformin reversed this effect. In addition, isoflurane significantly increased blood glucose levels in both adult and T2DM mice, and metformin reversed this effect as well. Administration of 25% glucose to metformin-pretreated mice induced hyperglycemia, but surprisingly did not reverse the benefits of metformin on hippocampal insulin signaling and fear memory following isoflurane anesthesia. Our findings show hippocampal IR and tau hyperphosphorylation contribute to acute isoflurane-induced cognitive dysfunction. Brief metformin treatment can mitigate these effects through a mechanism independent of glycemic control. Future studies are needed to investigate whether long-term metformin treatment can also prevent T2DM-induced hippocampal IR and cognitive decline.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the difference of life expectancy and healthy life expectancy among Shanghai residents of different gender and age groups. Methods: Compare the trends of life expectancy among Shanghai and other longevity countries/regions. With the disability weights of GBD, Sullivan method was applied to calculate the healthy life expectancy in Shanghai and analyze the loss of healthy life years among the population of different age groups and genders. Results: In the past 40 years, life expectancy had increased by 10.86 years in Shanghai. In 2016, the life expectancy of Shanghai residents was 83.18 years old, and 80.83 years old for males and 85.61 years old for females. The healthy life expectancy of Shanghai residents was 69.46 years, and 68.68 years for males and 70.23 years old for females. The gap with life expectancy was 13.72 years old, 12.15 years old and 15.38 years old, respectively. They account for 16.49%, 15.02% and 17.97% of life expectancy, respectively. The healthy life expectancy of women in all age groups is higher than that of men with the average gap of 1.76 years. The difference between the two is as small as 1.36 years at 20-24 years old, and as large as 2.24 years at 70-74 years old. The loss rate of healthy life expectancy increases with age, with women higher than men before age 65 and vice versa after age 65 years old. Conclusions: The life expectancy in Shanghai has reached the world leading level, but the healthy life loss is still large. It is necessary to further improve the life quality with the reducing mortality rate, especially for women and men over 65 years old.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) and polystyrene nanoplastic (PSNP) are typical carbonaceous nanomaterials which likely co-exist in soil and sediment. Here, we describe the transport of GO, irradiation reduced GO (RGO) and PSNP in saturated quartz sand both in single and binary systems. In the single transport system, the materials exhibited mobility in the order of GO > RGO > PSNP, due to increased hydrophobicity and decreased negative surface charges. Nevertheless, the co-transport of (R)GO and PSNP in the binary transport system was much more intricate. In Na+ saturated porous media, PSNP preferred to interact with (R)GO relative to the highly negatively charged quartz sand, thus (R)GO carried PSNP to break through the sand column. However, in Ca2+ saturated porous media, the transport of both (R)GO and PSNP was depressed, attributed to the particle-collector and particle-particle bridging effects between Ca2+ and the metal-complexing moieties of the nanoparticles and sand grains. Moreover, GO influenced the co-transport of PSNP to a larger extent than RGO, especially at relatively high ionic strength, because of the more abundant surface O-functional groups on GO providing more complexion sites with Ca2+. These results demonstrated that the transport of negatively charged nanomaterials was greatly related to the hydrophobicity and surface O-functional groups.

Abstract
The ubiquitous RNA-binding protein HuR (ELAVL1) promotes telomerase activity by associating with the telomerase noncoding RNA TERC. However, the role of the neural-specific members HuB, HuC, and HuD (ELAVL2-4) in telomerase activity is unknown. Here, we report that HuB and HuD, but not HuC, repress telomerase activity in human neuroblastoma cells. By associating with AU-rich sequences in TERC, HuB and HuD repressed the assembly of the TERT-TERC core complex. Furthermore, HuB and HuD competed with HuR for binding to TERC and antagonized the function of HuR that was previously shown to enhance telomerase activity to promote cell growth. Our findings reveal a novel mechanism controlling telomerase activity in human neuroblastoma cells that involves a competition between HuR and the related, neural-specific proteins HuB and HuD.

Abstract
1. The long noncoding RNA lncGLM is significantly differentially expressed in the livers of peak-laying hens compared with that in the livers of pre-laying hens, but its potential biological role and expression regulation are unclear.2. To explore the potential biological function of lncGLM, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection and association analysis were carried out in the Gushi×Anka F2 resource population.3. The tissues and spatiotemporal expression characteristics of lncGLM were analysed by real-time quantitative PCR. The effects of 17β-oestradiol on the expression of lncGLM expression were analysed through in vitro and in vivo experiments.4. The results showed that a g.19069338 T > C SNP was present in lncGLM. Association analysis revealed that lncGLM was significantly associated with body slanting length at 12 weeks, body weight at 12 weeks, shank length at four weeks, chest depth at eight weeks, pelvic width at 12 weeks, eviscerated weight, head weight, pancreas weight, pectoralis weight, leg muscle weight, muscular stomach weight rate, pancreas weight rate, carcase weight, aspartate aminotransferase, creatinine and pectoral muscle water loss rate.5. The expression of lncGLM in the liver was higher than that in other sampled tissues. In addition, the expression of lncGLM in the liver was significantly higher in the peak-laying period than at the pre-laying period. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments showed that lncGLM expression was regulated by 17β-oestradiol via oestrogen receptor alpha (ER-α). These results demonstrated that the chicken lncGLM gene is highly expressed in liver tissue and regulated by oestrogen through ER-α.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the pulmonary phenotype of mild-to-moderate chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) using quantitative computed tomography CT analysis techniques. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty-three patients with stable-phase mild-to-moderate COPD and 78 healthy controls, categorised as those aged <60 (28 and 40 patients, respectively) and ≥60 years (35 and 38, respectively), underwent chest low-dose respiratory dual-phase CT and pulmonary function test. Automatic software was used to measure the proximal airway parameters, and the emphysema and air-trapping indices were recorded. The intergroup differences in each parameter were assessed by one-way analysis of variance. RESULTS At <60 years of age, the mean Pi10WA (Wall area of a hypothetical airway with an internal perimeter of 10 mm) was greater in the mild-to-moderate COPD group than in the healthy control group (17.04 ± 1.63 versus 16.03 ± 1.16 mm2; p=0.004). Mild or moderate air-trapping was observed in the mild-to-moderate COPD group aged <60 years. There was no significant difference in the proximal airway parameters and inspiratory VI-950 (percent voxels less than -950 HU) between the two groups at age ≥60 years (all p>0.05); however, the expiratory VI-856 (percent voxels less than -856 HU) and mean lung density expiratory/inspiratory ratio (MLDE/I) were higher in the mild-to-moderate COPD group than those in the healthy control group (26.02 [30.23] versus 6.45 [11.16]; 0.88 ± 0.05 versus 0.84 ± 0.04; p<0.001 and p=0.024). CONCLUSION For patients with mild-to-moderate COPD, the CT phenotype was predominantly the "airway remodelling" type at <60 years of age, and the "air-trapping" type at ≥60 years of age. Thus, pulmonary CT phenotypes of mild-to-moderate COPD patients of different age groups are different.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the correlation between the severity of uncovertebral joints degeneration and heterotopic ossification (HO) after single-level artificial cervical disc replacement (ACDR). Methods: From January 2005 to January 2016, 70 patients who had undergone single-level ACDR in Peking University Third Hospital and had at least 5 years follow-up were included in this study. There were 35 males and 35 females with an average age of (42±8) years (range, 25-62 years). Cervical spine A-P X-rays were taken to assess the degeneration of uncovertebral joints and lateral X-rays were taken to assess the degeneration of intervertebral space. Cervical spine lateral and the flexion-extension X-rays at 5 years follow up were taken to assess HO. Degeneration of uncovertebral joints were evaluated by the classification system set-up in Peking University Third Hospital. Kellgren&Lawrence grading system was used to evaluate the degeneration of intervertebral space. HO was evaluated by the McAfee grading standards. The data were collected before surgery and at 5-years follow-up, then the correlation between degeneration of uncovertebral joints, degeneration of intervertebral space and HO was analyzed with Spearman non-parametric test. Results: The average follow-up time of 70 patients was (62.7±4.8) years (range, 52-74 months). There was a significant positive correlation between preoperative uncovertebral joints degeneration and HO after ACDR (r=0.585, P<0.01). There was a significant positive correlation between preoperative intervertebral space degeneration and HO (r=0.557, P<0.01). There was a significant positive correlation between preoperative intervertebral space degeneration and preoperative uncovertebral joints degeneration (r=0.727, P<0.01). Conclusion: There is a significant positive correlation between preoperative uncovertebral joints degeneration and HO after ACDR.

Abstract
Food consumption during the rest phase promotes circadian desynchrony, which is corrected with harmful physiological and mental disorders. Previously, we found that circadian desynchrony was involved in isoflurane-induced cognitive impairment. Here, we scheduled food access to modulate daily rhythm to examine its impact on isoflurane-induced cognitive impairments. Mice were randomly transferred to restricted feeding (RF) time groups: Control group (Zeitgeber time (ZT) 0–ZT24, ad libitum feeding), Day-Feeding group (ZT0–ZT12, misaligned feeding), and Night-Feeding group (ZT12–ZT24, aligned feeding). Then, some of them were subjected to 5 h of 1.3% isoflurane anaesthesia from ZT14 to ZT19 and were divided into the Control + Anes group, the Day-Feeding + Anes group, and the Night-Feeding + Anes group. Mini-Mitter was used to monitor the daily rhythm. Fear conditioning system was conducted to assess cognition of mice. We observed that the Night-Feeding group adapted to RF gradually, whereas the Day-Feeding group exhibited a disturbed daily rhythm. The Night-Feeding + Anes group exhibited a partially enhanced daily rhythm, whereas the Day-Feeding + Anes group exhibited sustained phase advances and diurnality score increase 7 days after isoflurane anaesthesia. Notably, in tests of hippocampus-dependent contextual memory, the Night-Feeding + Anes group demonstrated decreased deficits; the Day-Feeding + Anes group showed prolonged post-anaesthetic deficits 14 days after isoflurane anaesthesia. However, amygdala-dependent cued-fear conditioning post-anaesthesia was not altered by the RF schedule. In conclusion, we demonstrated that misaligned feeding disturbed the daily rhythm and led to persistent post-anaesthetic cognitive dysfunction. Aligned feeding enhanced the daily rhythm partially and improved post-anaesthetic cognitive dysfunction.

Abstract
Context: Oxidative imbalance-induced cognitive impairment is among the most urgent clinical concerns. Isoflurane has been demonstrated to impair cognitive function via an increase in oxidative stress. GSP has strong antioxidant capacities, suggesting potential cognitive benefits.Objective: This study investigates whether GSP pre-treatment can alleviate isoflurane-induced cognitive dysfunction in mice.Materials and methods: C57BL/6J mice were pre-treated with either GSP 25-100 mg/kg/d for seven days or GSP 100-400 mg/kg as a single dose before the 6 h isoflurane anaesthesia. Cognitive functioning was examined using the fear conditioning tests. The levels of SOD, p-NR2B and p-CREB in the hippocampus were also analysed.Results: Pre-treatment with either a dose of GSP 50 mg/kg/d for seven days or a single dose of GSP 200 mg/kg significantly increased the % freezing time in contextual tests on the 1st (72.18 ± 12.39% vs. 37.60 ± 8.93%; 78.27 ± 8.46% vs. 52.72 ± 2.64%), 3rd (93.80 ± 7.62% vs. 52.94 ± 14.10%; 87.65 ± 10.86% vs. 52.89 ± 1.73%) and 7th (91.36 ± 5.31% vs. 64.09 ± 14.46%; 93.78 ± 3.92% vs. 79.17 ± 1.79%) day after anaesthesia. In the hippocampus of mice exposed to isoflurane, GSP 200 mg/kg increased the total SOD activity on the 1st and 3rd day and reversed the decreased activity of the NR2B/CREB pathway.Discussion and conclusions: These findings suggest that GSP improves isoflurane-induced cognitive dysfunction by protecting against perturbing antioxidant enzyme activities and NR2B/CREB pathway. Therefore, GSP may possess a potential prophylactic role in isoflurane-induced and other oxidative stress-related cognitive decline.

Abstract
The role of the serotonin 7 receptor (5-HT7 receptor) subtype in a number of domains has been widely recognized, but its role in the regulation of changes of the circadian rhythm after anesthesia is still unclear. We used intraperitoneal injection of 5-HT7 receptor agonist LP-211 or antagonist SB-269970 in mice to influence the level of 5-HT7 receptor protein in the SCN and to observe the role of this receptor on circadian rhythm changes after isoflurane anesthesia. Our results show the appropriate dose of SB-269970 significantly alleviated the circadian rhythm disorder induced by isoflurane anesthesia, while LP-211 significantly aggravated it after anesthesia, which is different from the phase shift that can be caused by the administration of LP-211 before anesthesia. These findings may indicate the 5-HT7 receptor plays a complex role in the regulation of circadian rhythm after anesthesia. Our findings may provide some positive significance for alleviating circadian rhythm disorder in patients after anesthesia and ultimately promoting rapid postoperative recovery.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the safety and effectiveness of minimal invasive surgery treating pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs), and to summarize surgical characteristics and share experience. Methods: The clinical data of 80 pNETs treated by a single hospital from January 2015 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into laparoscopic group and robot group. And surgical procedures included pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), distal pancreatectomy (DP), central pancreatectomy (CP), and tumor enucleation. Results: Of 80 patients, 76 cases (95%) underwent minimal invasive surgery and 4 cases (5%) changed to open surgery. There were 38 females, with median age of 54.4 (20-80) years and median BMI (17.0-38.0) kg/m(2). Among them, 24 patients (31.6%) underwent PD, 36 patients (47.4%) underwent DP, 8 patients (10.5%) underwent CP and 8 patients (10.5%) received tumor enucleation. The postoperative incidence of grade B/C pancreatic fistula was 35.5%, the incidence of abdominal infection was 10.5%, the postoperative bleeding was 7.9%, and the reoperation rate was 6.6%, without perioperative deaths. There was no significant difference in postoperative complications among different surgical methods, including postoperative pancreatic fistula (P=0.396), postoperative bleeding (P=0.297), postoperative abdominal infection (P=0.339) and reoperation (P=0.396). Conclusions: Surgical resection is an effective treatment for pNETs. pNETs are suitable for minimally invasive surgery with earlier stage and smaller tumor diameter. Minimally invasive surgery for pNETs is safe and feasible, and functional preserving surgery could take into consideration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to elucidate the potential mechanism of micro ribonucleic acid (miR)-21 in promoting fracture healing. MATERIALS AND METHODS 30 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into group A (phosphate-buffered saline, PBS, n=10), group B (AntagomiR-21, n=10) and group C (AntagomiR-NC, n=10) according to the different treatments. The femoral fracture operation was performed in every rat, which was pathologically diagnosed via X-ray. After the successful modeling, 50 μL (2 nmoL) PBS, 50 μL AntagomiR-21 or 50 μL AntagomiR-NC was intraperitoneally injected into rats in group A, B or C, respectively. The above agents were injected once a week for 6 weeks. At 6 weeks, 3 rats were executed in each group, and the tissue at the fracture end was observed via hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. The fracture healing of rats was evaluated via imaging at 1 and 7 weeks. At the same time, the expression of miR-21 in the three groups was detected via Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR), and the expression of phosphatidylinositol 3-hydroxy kinase (PI3K) and phosphorylated-serine/threonine-protein kinase B (p-Akt) in the three groups was detected via Western blotting. RESULTS According to the histological staining, the bone repair at the fracture end of rats in group B was not significant with fracture and poor continuity compared with those in group A and group C. The imaging evaluation revealed that in group B, the callus tissues were significantly reduced, the fracture line had undesirable healing. There were no displacement and loosening of internal fixation compared with group A and group C. Besides, RT-PCR showed that the miR-21 expression declined markedly in group B compared with that in group A and group C, and the differences were statistically significant (p<0.05). Western blotting manifested that the protein levels of PI3K and p-Akt also declined in group B compared with those in group A and group C, and there were statistically significant differences (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS MiR-21 promotes the fracture healing in fractured rats by activating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Abstract
Objective: To summarize the characteristics and difficulties of minimal invasive surgery for adolescent with pancreatic head tumor. Methods: The data of adolescent younger than 28 years old with pancreatic head tumor treated at Department of Gastroenterology and Pancreatic Surgery, Zhejiang Province People's Hospital from January 2014 to December 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. Fifteen cases were enrolled, included 5 males and 10 females. The median age was 20 years(range: 11 to 27 years) and the body mass index was (19.8±2.3)kg/m(2)(range: 17.3 to 21.6 kg/m(2)). Results: Standard pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed in 12 cases, including 9 cases of laparoscopic surgery and 3 cases of robotic-assisted surgery, and laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy with resection of hepatic flexure of colon was performed on 1 case, and robotic-assisted duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection with pancreatogastrostomy was performed on other 2 cases. The operative time was (269.0±65.1)minutes(range: 150 to 410 minutes), and the blood loss was (135.6±52.7)ml(range: 50 to 400 ml). Six patients got postoperative complications with gastrointestinal bleeding biochemical leakage and intestinal obstruction(n=1), pancreatic biochemical leakage(n=1), bile leakage(n=1), chylous leakage(n=1), wound infection(n=1), hepatic injury(n=1). The median postoperative hospital stay was 13 days(range: 9 to 22 days).The pathologic findings were solid pseudopapillary neoplasms(n=8), neuroendocrine neoplasms(n=3), introductal papillary mucinous neoplasm(n=1), cystic fibroma(n=1), serous cystadenoma(n=1), Ewing sarcoma(n=1).The median follow-up was 37 months(range: 2 to 75 months).The patient with Ewing sarcoma was diagnosed as liver metastasis at 41 months after surgery and died at 63 months after surgery.All the other patients survived without tumor.Three patients got the long-term complication of bile duct. Conclusions: Most of pancreatic head tumors for adolescent are benign or low malignant. Minimally invasive surgery be the first choice, and function-preserving surgery should be taken into account as much as possible.Perioperative management and communication is essential as the parents pay much attention to the quality of life after surgery.

Abstract
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSv) is one of the most significant airborne viruses impacting the pork industry in the US. Non-thermal plasmas (NTPs) are electrical discharges comprised of reactive radicals and excited species that inactivate viruses and bacteria. Our previous experiments using a packed bed NTP reactor demonstrated effective inactivation of bacteriophage MS2 as a function of applied voltage and power. The present study examined the effectiveness of the same reactor in inactivating aerosolized PRRSv. A PRRSv solution containing ∼105 TCID50/ml of PRRSv VR2332 strain was aerosolized at 3 ml/min by an air-jet nebulizer and introduced into 5 or 12 cfm air flow followed by NTP exposure in the reactor. Twin impingers upstream and downstream of the reactor collected samples of the virus-laden air flow for subsequent TCID50 assay and qPCR analyses. An optical particle sizer measured upstream and downstream aerosol size distributions, giving estimates of aerosol filtration by the reactor. The results showed that PRRSv was inactivated to a similar degree as MS2 at the same conditions, with the maximum 1.3-log inactivation of PRRSv achieved at 20 kV and 12 cfm air flow rate. The results demonstrate the potential of properly optimized NTPs in controlling PRRSv transmission.

Abstract
A large number of plastic products potentially become smaller particles, including nanoplastics, under multiple actions in the environment. The interactions between nanoplastic particles and constituents in the environment, such as minerals, would greatly affect the transport, fate and toxic effects of nanoplastics. In this study, the interactions of polystyrene nanoplastic (PSNP) with four typical minerals, including goethite, magnetite, kaolinite and montmorillonite, in aqueous phase were investigated. The stability of PSNP colloidal suspension decreased in the presence of the positively charged goethite or magnetite, while it was not affected by the negatively charged montmorillonite and kaolinite, suggesting that there was a strong electrostatic attraction between PSNP and the two iron oxides. Incubation of PSNP with other three metal oxides with different surface charges, MnO2, Al2O3 and SiO2, confirmed the importance of electrostatic interaction in the stability of PSNP suspension. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis and batch adsorption experiments indicated that PSNP was effectively adsorbed on goethite or magnetite due to the strong electrostatic attraction between them. The Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) and two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D-COS) analyses indicated that there was strong hydrogen bonding between the -OH (γ-FeOOH) of goethite and PSNP, contributing to the higher adsorption of PSNP on goethite than magnetite. These findings shed light on the interactions of PSNP with mineral surfaces, and potential fate of PSNP under natural conditions in the water environment.

Abstract
Microplastics released into the environment undergo a variety of aging processes, however, information about the influence of aging on the adsorption behavior of microplastics is limited. In order to better understand the effect of aging polystyrene (PS) on the ability to adsorb heavy metal, H2O2 and Fenton reagent were used to investigate the aging properties of PS. Aging PS with these two different aging agents at pH = 4 and room temperature for the same time. Physical and chemical characterization indicated that aging caused oxidation of the surface of PS and the formation of surface micro-cracks. Based on the 2D-COS analysis, the aging process of PS functional groups could occur in the following sequence: 1375 (C-OH) > 1739 (C=O) > 1182 cm-1 (C-O-C) > 1716 (O-C=O). The adsorption experiments for Cd2+ with two different concentrations were carried out by PS with different aging time at room temperature. The adsorption data showed that the adsorption capacity of Cd2+ was significantly enhanced after aging compared with pristine PS, and the adsorption capacity of PS after Fenton aging treatment is much stronger than that after H2O2 aging treatment. The kinetic analysis of the adsorption data indicates that the adsorption process is more consistent with the second-order kinetics than the first-order kinetics, and it is further concluded that the adsorption of Cd2+ by PS is a relatively complicated process. According to the fitting results of adsorption isotherms, the adsorption process of pristine PS mainly occurs on the surface, but with the continuous aging, more adsorption sites may be exposed on the surface of PS, so it can be concluded that the adsorption mechanism of Cd2+ by PS is the coexistence of physics and chemistry. This study indicates aging microplastics may have a significant impact on the destination and migration of metal contaminants, which deserves to be further concerned.
