Abstract
PURPOSE To predict histopathological differentiation grades in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) before surgery with quantitative and qualitative variables obtained from dual-layer spectral detector CT (DLCT). METHODS Totally 128 patients with histopathologically confirmed PDAC and preoperative DLCT were retrospectively enrolled and categorized into the low-grade (LG) (well and moderately differentiated, n = 82) and high-grade (HG) (poorly differentiated, n = 46) subgroups. Both conventional and spectral variables for PDAC were measured. The ratio of iodine concentration (IC) values in arterial phase(AP) and venous phase (VP) was defined as iodine enhancement fraction_AP/VP (IEF_AP/VP). Necrosis was visually assessed on both conventional CT images (necrosis_con) and virtual mono-energetic images (VMIs) at 40 keV (necrosis_40keV). Forward stepwise logistic regression method was conducted to perform univariable and multivariable analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and the DeLong method were used to evaluate and compare the efficiencies of variables in predicting tumor grade. RESULTS Necrosis_con (odds ratio [OR] = 2.84, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.13-7.13; p < 0.001) was an independent predictor among conventional variables, and necrosis_40keV (OR = 5.82, 95% CI: 1.98-17.11; p = 0.001) and IEF_AP/VP (OR = 1.12, 95% CI:1.07-1.17; p < 0.001) were independent predictors among spectral variables for distinguishing LG PDAC from HG PDAC. IEF_AP/VP (AUC = 0.754, p = 0.016) and combination model (AUC = 0.812, p < 0.001) had better predictive performances than necrosis_con (AUC = 0.580). The combination model yielded the highest sensitivity (72%) and accuracy (79%), while IEF_AP/VP exhibited the highest specificity (89%). CONCLUSION Variables derived from DLCT have the potential to preoperatively evaluate PDAC tumor grade. Furthermore, spectral variables and their combination exhibited superior predictive performances than conventional CT variables.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the safety of early enteral nutrition (EEN) support in patients with severe intra-abdominal infection and intestinal fistulas. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study. We collected relevant clinical data of 204 patients with severe intra-abdominal infection and intestinal fistulas who had been managed in the No. 1 Department of General Surgery, Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University between 1 January 2017 and 1 January 2020. The patients were allocated to EEN or delayed enteral nutrition (DEN) groups depending on whether enteral nutrition had been instituted within 48 hours of admission to the intensive care unit. The primary outcome was 180-day mortality. Other outcomes included rates of intraperitoneal hemorrhage, septic shock, open abdominal cavity, bloodstream infection, mechanical ventilation, and continuous renal replacement therapy. Risk factors for mortality were analyzed by logistic regression. Results: There were no significant differences in hematological data or other baseline characteristics between the two groups at the time of admission to the intensive care unit (all P>0.05). However, septic shock (31.2% [15/48] vs. 15.4% [24/156], χ2=4.99, P=0.025), continuous renal replacement therapy (27.1% [13/48] versus 9.0% [14/156], χ2=8.96, P=0.003), and 180-day mortality (31.2% [15/48] vs. 7.7% [12/156], χ2=15.75, P<0.001) were significantly more frequent in the EEN than the DEN group (all P<0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that older age (OR=1.082, 95%CI:1.027-1.139,P=0.003), worse Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II scores (OR=1.189, 95%CI: 1.037-1.363, P=0.013), higher C-reactive protein (OR=1.013, 95%CI:1.004-1.023, P=0.007) and EEN (OR=8.844, 95%CI:1.809- 43.240, P=0.007) were independent risk factors for death in patients with severe intra-abdominal infection and intestinal fistulas. Conclusion: EEN may lead to adverse events and increase mortality in patients with both enterocutaneous fistulas and severe abdominal infection. EEN should be implemented with caution in such patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the diagnostic value of diffusion kurtosis magnetic resonance imaging (DKI) and conventional diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) for evaluating the response to first-line chemotherapy in unresectable pancreatic cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 21 patients with clinically and pathologically confirmed unresected pancreatic cancer who received palliative chemotherapy. Three-tesla MRI examinations containing DWI sequences with b values of 0, 100, 700, 1400, and 2100 s/mm2 were performed before and after chemotherapy. Parameters included the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), mean diffusion coefficient (MD), and mean diffusional kurtosis (MK). The performances of the DWI and DKI parameters in distinguishing the response to chemotherapy were evaluated by the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Overall survival (OS) was calculated from the date of first treatment to the date of death or the latest follow-up date. RESULTS The ADCchange and MDchange were significantly higher in the responding group (PR group) than in the nonresponding group (non-PR group) (ADCchange: 0.21 ± 0.05 vs. 0.11 ± 0.09, P = 0.02; MDchange: 0.37 ± 0.24 vs. 0.10 ± 0.12, P = 0.002). No statistical significance was shown when comparing ADCpre, ADCpost, MKpre, MKpost, MKchange, MDpre, and MDpost between the PR and non-PR groups. The ROC curve analysis indicated that MDchange (AUC = 0.898, cutoff value = 0.7143) performed better than ADCchange (AUC = 0.806, cutoff value = 0.1369) in predicting the response to chemotherapy. CONCLUSION The ADCchange and MDchange demonstrated strong potential for evaluating the response to chemotherapy in unresectable pancreatic cancer. The MDchange showed higher specificity in the classification of PR and non-PR than the ADCchange. Other parameters, including ADCpre, ADCpost, MKpre, MKpost, MKchange, MDpre, and MDpost, are not suitable for response evaluation. The combined model SUMchange demonstrated superior performance compared to the individual DWI and DKI models. Further experiments are needed to evaluate the potential of DWI and DKI parameters in predicting the prognosis of patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Colorectal adenomas are an important precancerous lesion of colorectal adenoma with a high incidence. This study aims to explore new prognostic targets for colorectal adenomas through bioinformatics techniques. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, data from 29 colonic adenomas and 38 normal colonic mucosa in GSE37364 were analyzed to screen for differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Then, batch survival analysis, construction of risk model, mutation analysis, Cox regression analysis and expression analysis were performed on DEGs to determine the hub genes of this study. Finally, immune correlation analysis and cell experiments were carried out on the hub gene to explore its potential mechanism. RESULTS In our study, a total of 431 up-regulated and 809 down-regulated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified. Among these, Unc-5 Netrin Receptor D (UNC5D) emerged as a pivotal gene associated with colorectal adenoma. Notably, UNC5D expression levels were found to be significantly higher in normal tissues compared to colorectal adenoma tissues. Furthermore, our analysis demonstrated that UNC5D showed promising diagnostic potential for patients with colon adenocarcinoma. In vitro experiments revealed that the overexpression of UNC5D had a profound impact on the behavior of colorectal tumor cells. Specifically, it led to a substantial reduction in the proliferation, motility, and invasion of these tumor cells. Additionally, UNC5D was shown to exert control over STAT1/STAT3 phosphorylation, which in turn regulated the expression of PD-L1 in response to interferon (IFN) stimulation. These findings highlight the significant role of UNC5D in modulating immune responses and the development of colorectal adenoma. UNC5D emerges as a potential diagnostic biomarker and an attractive immunotherapeutic target in the context of colorectal malignancies. These results call for further exploration of UNC5D-based strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of colorectal adenoma and adenocarcinoma. CONCLUSIONS In addition to having the potential to be used as a diagnostic biomarker and an immunotherapeutic target in colorectal malignancies, UNC5D is necessary for the growth of colorectal adenomas. Additionally, UNC5D controlled STAT1/STAT3 phosphorylation to suppress the growth of colorectal cancers by regulating IFN-induced PD-L1 expression.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify prognostic CT features that predict recurrence in patients with resectable pancreatic body/tail adenocarcinoma (PBTA) and construct a CT-based nomogram for preoperative risk stratification. METHODS A total of 258 patients with resectable PBTA who underwent upfront surgery were retrospectively enrolled (development cohort, n = 172; validation cohort, n = 86), and their clinical and CT features were analyzed. Stepwise Cox proportional hazard analysis was performed to identify prognostic features and construct a predictive nomogram for recurrence-free survival (RFS). The prognostic performance of the CT-based nomogram was validated and compared to the 8th American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) pathological staging system. RESULTS In the development cohort, the following five CT features for predicting recurrence were identified to construct the nomogram: tumor density in the venous phase, tumor necrosis, adjacent organ invasion, splenic vein invasion, and superior mesenteric vein/portal vein abutment. In the validation cohort, the CT-based nomogram showed a concordance index of 0.65 (95% confidence interval: 0.58-0.73), which was higher than the 8th AJCC staging system. The area under the curves of the nomogram for predicting recurrence at 0.5, 1, and 2 years were 0.66, 0.71, and 0.72, respectively. Patients were categorized into high- and low-risk groups with 1-year recurrence probabilities of 0.73 and 0.43, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The proposed nomogram provided accurate recurrence risk stratification for patients with resectable PBTA in a preoperative setting and may be used to facilitate clinical decision-making. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT The proposed CT-based nomogram, based on easily available CT features, may serve as an effective and convenient tool for stratifying further the recurrence risk of patients with pancreatic body/tail adenocarcinoma. KEY POINTS • The CT-based nomogram, incorporating five commonly used CT features, successfully preoperatively stratified patients with resectable PBTA into distinct prognosis groups. • Tumor density in the venous phase, tumor necrosis, splenic vein invasion, adjacent organ invasion, and superior mesenteric vein/portal vein abutment were associated with RFS in patients with resectable PBTA. • The CT-based nomogram exhibited better predictive performance for recurrence than the 8th AJCC staging system.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Randomized clinical trials consistently demonstrate that the addition of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) to prostate radiation therapy improves overall survival (OS). However, there is substantial heterogeneity regarding the type of ADT: LHRHa alone, first generation NSAA alone (e.g., bicalutamide) or combination androgen blockade (CAB) with NSAA and LHRHa. There are no published randomized trials in localized disease that specifically compare the efficacy of NSAA to LHRHa, nor the utility of CAB over monotherapy ADT. We herein performed a systematic review and network meta-analysis to assess the impact of NSAA in relation to LHRHa in men receiving radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer. MATERIALS/METHODS We performed a systematic literature search in PubMed to identify clinical trials of patients with localized prostate cancer for which ADT duration was the primary randomization variable. Both definitive and salvage radiation trials were included. Hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated from data extracted from published survival curves. A network meta-analysis was performed to compare OS by ADT regimens. We defined NSAA toxicity as early discontinuation of any ADT agent due to side effects given the inconsistent reporting of specific related toxicity. A meta-regression was performed to assess association with NSAA toxicity, adjusted for study year, patient age, T stage, Gleason score and total ADT duration. NSAA duration was assessed as a continuous variable. RESULTS Of the 11 trials (8,169 patients) with OS data, the median duration of any ADT was 3 months (range 0-36 months) and the median duration of NSAA specifically was 3.5 months (range 0-24 months). There was no significant difference in OS between those treated with LHRHa (n = 369) vs. CAB (n = 4,792; HR 1.10, 95% CI 0.78-1.55). Among those receiving CAB, increased NSAA duration did not improve OS (versus 0 months; 1-6 months HR 1.41, 95% CI 0.94-2.13; 7-12 months HR 1.43, 95% CI 0.87-2.34) when controlling for total ADT duration. Of the 19 trials (15,067 patients) with toxicity data, patients on NSAA (n = 503) appeared more likely to discontinue treatment early compared to those receiving LHRHa (n = 902), though this was not statistically significant (odds ratio [OR] 4.20, 95% CI 0.16-109.19). A longer duration of NSAA did not adversely affect ADT compliance. Patients were more likely to discontinue ADT prematurely, regardless of type, if the planned duration was longer (OR 1.08, 95% CI 1.07-1.09). CONCLUSION We did not detect an overall survival benefit to adding NSAA to LHRHa, and NSAA appeared less well tolerated than LHRHa in men receiving radiation therapy for localized prostate cancer. These data suggest that providers should consider LHRHa without the addition of a NSAA as optimal when clinically appropriate.

Abstract
Objective: To assess the impact of Friday surgery on clinical outcomes in elderly patients with hip fracture under multidisciplinary treatment. Methods: A retrospective cohort study. The clinical data of 414 geriatric patients with hip fractures admitted to Zhongda Hospital Affiliated with Southeast University from January 2018 to March 2021 were analyzed retrospectively, including 126 males and 288 females with a mean age of (81.3±7.6) years. The patients were divided into two groups based on whether they underwent surgery on Friday or not. The Friday group(n=69) and the non-Friday group(n=345) were compared in terms of general information, American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA) classification, fracture type, injury to admission time, preoperative waiting time, surgical method, anesthesia type and use of intensive care unit (ICU) fast track. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed based on age, ASA grade, time from injury to admission, preoperative waiting time, hemoglobin and albumin levels at admission. Clinical outcomes were collected and compared between the two groups, including length of hospital stay, total hospitalization cost and 30-day, 90-day and 1-year mortality rates, and postoperative complications. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify influencing factors for 1-year mortality in geriatric patients with hip fracture. Results: Baseline data showed statistically significant differences in hemoglobin, albumin and preoperative waiting time between the two groups (all P<0.05). After PSM matching, 69 patients were included in each group, and no significant differences were observed in baseline data between the two groups (all P>0.05). There was no significant differences in 30-day mortality rate (4.3% vs 0, P=0.080), 90-day mortality rate (7.2% vs 1.4%, P=0.095), length of hospital stay [(10.85±4.45)d vs (10.92±3.68)d, P=0.919], total hospitalization cost [(60.9±15.4) thousands yuan vs (59.1±15.4) thousands yuan, P=0.489], postoperative complications [pneumonia (11.6% vs 13.0%, P=0.796), cardio-cerebrovascular complications (11.6% vs 8.7%, P=0.573) and delirium (5.7% vs 2.9%, P=0.245)] between the Friday group and the non-Friday group (all P>0.05). However, the 1-year mortality rate was higher in the Friday group than that in the non-Friday group(18.8% vs 4.3%, P=0.008). Multivariate analysis revealed that surgery on Friday (OR=11.222, 95%CI: 2.198-57.291, P=0.004), low hemoglobin levels at admission (OR=0.920, 95%CI: 0.875-0.967, P=0.001), hemiarthroplasty treatment (OR=5.127, 95%CI: 1.308-20.095, P=0.019) and longer surgery duration (OR=0.958, 95%CI: 0.927-0.989, P=0.009) were influencing factors for 1-year mortality in geriatric patients with hip fracture. Conclusions: In the context of multidisciplinary treatment, Friday surgery does not increase short-term mortality, length of hospital stay, total hospitalization cost or incidence of complications in geriatric patients with hip fracture. However, it remains a influencing factor for 1-year mortality in those patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Previous studies have found associations between polymorphisms in some candidate genes and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) risk. However, the association between TLR2 and TLR9 polymorphisms and COPD risk remains uncertain. METHODS Four variants (rs352140, rs3804099, rs3804100, and rs5743705) of the TLR2 and TLR9 genes in 540 COPD patients and 507 healthy controls were genotyped using the Agena MassARRAY system. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated to assess the association of TLR2 and TLR9 polymorphisms with COPD risk by logistic regression analysis. RESULTS TLR9-rs352140, TLR2-rs3804100, and TLR2-rs5743705 were related to a lower risk of COPD among Chinese people and the significance still existed after Bonferroni correction. Additionally, rs3804099, rs3804100, and rs352140 were found to be associated with COPD development in different subgroups (males, age ≤ 68 years, smokers, BMI < 24 kg/m2, and acute exacerbation). CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicated that TLR9 and TLR2 polymorphisms had protective effects on the development of COPD among Chinese people.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the feasibility on the preparation of novel negative pressure materials for constructing new matrix of full-thickness skin defect wounds in rats. Methods: The experimental research method was applied. The microstructure of polyurethane foam dressing which was commonly used in negative pressure treatment was observed under scanning electron microscope, and its pore diameter was detected (n=5). Polycaprolactone (PCL) and polybutylene succinate (PBS) were used respectively as raw materials for the preparation of PCL and PBS negative pressure materials by melt spinning technology, with the measured pore diameter of polyurethane foam dressing as the spinning spacing at the spinning rates of 15, 25, and 35 mm/s, respectively. The microstructures of the prepared negative pressure materials were observed under scanning electron microscope, and their fiber diameters were measured. The tensile strength and tensile modulus of the prepared negative pressure materials and polyurethane foam dressing were measured by tensile testing machine and composite testing machine, respectively (n=5), to screen the spinning rate for subsequent preparation of negative pressure materials. Human skin fibroblasts (Fbs) in logarithmic growth phase were co-cultured with PCL negative pressure material and PBS negative pressure material prepared at the selected spinning rate, respectively. After 1, 4, and 7 day (s) of co-culture, the cell activity and adhesion in the materials was detected by living/dead cells detection kit, and the cell proliferation level in the materials was detected by cell counting kit 8 method (n=5). A full-thickness skin defect wound was prepared on the back of 18 5-6 weeks old Sprague-Dawley rats (gender unlimited). Immediately after injury, the injured rats were divided into PCL+polyurethane group, PBS+polyurethane group, and polyurethane alone group according to the random number table (with 6 rats in each group). The wounds were covered with materials containing corresponding component and performed with continuous negative pressure suction at the negative pressure of -16.7 kPa. The wound tissue along with materials directly contacted to the wound (hereinafter referred to as wound specimens) were collected from 3 rats in each group after 7 and 14 days of negative pressure treatment (NPT), respectively. The growth of granulation tissue and the attachment of material to wound surface were observed after hematoxylin-eosin staining, the collagen fiber deposition was observed after Masson staining, and CD34 and interleukin-6 (IL-6) positive cells were detected and counted by immunohistochemical staining. Data were statistically analyzed with one-way analysis of variance, analysis of variance for factorial design, least significant difference-t test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, Mann-Whitney U test, and Bonferroni correction. Results: The microstructure of polyurethane foam dressing was loose and porous, with the pore diameter of (815±182) μm. The spinning spacing for the subsequent negative pressure material was set as 800 μm. The microstructures of PBS negative pressure material and PCL negative pressure material were regular, with vertically interconnected layers and continuous fibers in even thickness, but the fibers of PBS negative pressure material were straighter than those of PCL negative pressure material. There was no obvious difference in the microstructure of negative pressure materials prepared from the same raw material at different spinning rates. The fiber diameters of PCL negative pressure materials prepared at three spinning rates were similar (P>0.05). The fiber diameters of PBS negative pressure materials prepared at spinning rates of 25 mm/s and 35 mm/s were significantly smaller than the fiber diameter of PBS negative pressure material prepared at the spinning rate of 15 mm/s (with t values of 4.99 and 6.40, respectively, P<0.01). Both the tensile strength and tensile modulus of PCL negative pressure materials prepared at three spinning rates were similar (P>0.05). The tensile strength of PBS negative pressure materials prepared at spinning rates of 15 mm/s and 25 mm/s was significantly lower than that of PBS negative pressure materials prepared at the spinning rate of 35 mm/s (with t values of 9.20 and 8.92, respectively, P<0.01), and the tensile modulus was significantly lower than that of PBS negative pressure materials prepared at the spinning rate of 35 mm/s (with t values of 2.58 and 2.47, respectively, P<0.05). Subsequently, PCL negative pressure material was prepared at the spinning rate of 35 mm/s, and PBS negative pressure material was prepared at the spinning rate of 15 mm/s. After 1, 4, and 7 day (s) of co-culture, the number of human skin Fbs that adhered to PCL negative pressure material and PBS negative pressure material increased with time, and there was no significant difference between the two materials. After 1 and 7 day (s) of co-culture, the proliferation levels of human skin Fbs between the two negative pressure materials were similar (P>0.05). After being co-cultured for 4 days, the proliferation level of human skin Fbs in PBS negative pressure material was significantly higher than that in PCL negative pressure material (t=6.37, P<0.01). After 7 days of NPT, the materials were clearly identifiable and a small amount of collagen fibers were also observed in the wound specimens of rats in the three groups; a small amount of granulation tissue was observed in the wound specimens of rats in polyurethane alone group. After 14 days of NPT, a large number of granulation tissue and collagen fibers were observed in the wound specimens of rats in the three groups; the materials and wound tissue in the wound specimens of rats in PCL+polyurethane group could not be clearly distinguished. After 7 and 14 days of NPT, the collagen fibers in the wound specimens of rats in polyurethane alone group were denser than those in the other two groups. After 7 days of NPT, the number of CD34 positive cells in the wound specimens of rats in PBS+polyurethane group was 14.8±3.6 per 400 times visual field, which was significantly less than 27.8±9.1 in polyurethane alone group (t=3.06, P<0.05); the number of IL-6 positive cells was 60 (49, 72), which was significantly more than 44 (38, 50) in polyurethane alone group (Z=2.41, P<0.05). After 14 days of NPT, the number of IL-6 positive cells in the wound specimens of rats in PBS+polyurethane group was 19 (12, 28) per 400 times visual field, which was significantly more than 3 (1, 10) in PCL+polyurethane group and 9 (2, 13) in polyurethane alone group (with Z values of 2.61 and 2.40, respectively, P<0.05). Conclusions: The prepared PCL negative pressure material and PBS negative pressure material have good biocompatibility, and can successfully construct the new matrix of full-thickness skin defect wounds in rats. PCL negative pressure material is better than PBS negative pressure material in general.

Abstract
Background This study investigated the efficacy of radiomics to predict survival outcome for locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) patients and the association of radiomics with tumor heterogeneity and microenvironment. Methods Patients with LABC from 2010 to 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Radiomics features were extracted from enhanced MRI. We constructed the radiomics score using lasso and assessed its prognostic value. An external validation cohort from The Cancer Imaging Archive was used to assess phenotype reproducibility. Sequencing data from TCGA and our center were applied to reveal genomic landscape of different radiomics score groups. Tumor infiltrating lymphocytes map and bioinformatics methods were applied to evaluate the heterogeneity of tumor microenvironment. Computational histopathology was also applied. Results A total of 278 patients were divided into training cohort and validation cohort. Radiomics score was constructed and significantly associated with disease-free survival (DFS) of the patients in training cohort, validation cohort and external validation cohort (p < 0.001, p = 0.014 and p = 0.041, respectively). The radiomics-based nomogram showed better predictive performance of DFS compared with TNM model. Distinct gene expression patterns were identified. Immunophenotype and immune cell composition was different in each radiomics score group. The link between radiomics and computational histopathology was revealed. Conclusions The radiomics score could effectively predict prognosis of LABC after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Radiomics revealed heterogeneity of tumor cell and tumor microenvironment and holds great potential to facilitate individualized DFS estimation and guide personalized care.

Abstract
Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a kind of biofilm-forming foodborne bacterium, presents formidable challenges to the effectiveness of antimicrobial agents. Increasingly, the safety of chemical antimicrobials has aroused the widespread attention of the public. The development of the novel nature antimicrobial agents has become critical for controlling biofilm-related pollution and infections. In this paper, we investigated the antibacterial activity of Lactobacillus paracasei L10, and evaluated the inhibition and eradication effects of the cell-free supernatant (CFS) of the strain on V. parahaemolyticus biofilms in detail. We found that the CFS exhibited marked antibacterial activity against all tested pathogenic bacteria. In co-cultural assay, L. paracasei L10 could notably reduce cell viability in both plankton and biofilm of V. parahaemolyticus and this antagonism effect in biofilm was greater than that in planktonic state. Meanwhile, the growth of V. parahaemolyticus was completely inhibited when 6% (v/v) of the CFS was added, and the supernatant also showed a concentration-dependent manner to inhibit and eradicate the biofilms of V. parahaemolyticus while decreased the metabolic activity of the biofilm in the same way. Moreover, the fluorescence microscopic and confocal laser scanning microscopy images confirmed the anti-biofilm activity of the CFS. This study elucidates that L. paracasei L10 displays a significant anti-biofilm effect on V. parahaemolyticus and the mechanism of its antagonism merits further study, which provides theoretical support for further development and application of L. paracasei L10 as anti-biofilm agents.

Abstract
Objectives To investigate the value of CT-based radiomics analysis in preoperatively discriminating pancreatic mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCN) and atypical serous cystadenomas (ASCN). Methods A total of 103 MCN and 113 ASCN patients who underwent surgery were retrospectively enrolled. A total of 764 radiomics features were extracted from preoperative CT images. The optimal features were selected by Mann-Whitney U test and minimum redundancy and maximum relevance method. The radiomics score (Rad-score) was then built using random forest algorithm. Radiological/clinical features were also assessed for each patient. Multivariable logistic regression was used to construct a radiological model. The performance of the Rad-score and the radiological model was evaluated using 10-fold cross-validation for area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and accuracy. Results Ten screened optimal features were identified and the Rad-score was then built based on them. The radiological model was built based on four radiological/clinical factors. In the 10-fold cross-validation, the Rad-score was proved to be robust and reliable (average AUC: 0.784, sensitivity: 0.847, specificity: 0.745, PPV: 0.767, NPV: 0.849, accuracy: 0.793). The radiological model performed slightly less well in classification (average AUC: average AUC: 0.734 sensitivity: 0.748, specificity: 0.705, PPV: 0.732, NPV: 0.798, accuracy: 0.728. Conclusions The CT-based radiomics analysis provided promising performance for preoperatively discriminating MCN from ASCN and showed good potential in improving diagnostic power, which may serve as a novel tool for guiding clinical decision-making for these patients.

Abstract
Objectives: To explore the GAA varient spectrum and the genotype-phenotype correlations in patients with glycogen storage disease type Ⅱ (Pompe disease, PD), as well as to estimate the disease incidence based on carrier rate of GAA varients in Guangzhou population. Methods: A total of 57 PD cases were retrospectively enrolled at Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center from January 1, 2010 to May 31, 2020. All patients presented symptoms before the age of 18 years. Each diagnosis was further confirmed by GAA enzyme activity and GAA variants. The carrier rate of GAA varients was calculated based on variants detected by whole exon sequencing among 2 395 healthy children in Guangzhou. Results: Among the 57 PD patients (including male 26, female 31),twenty-eight patients with infantile onset PD (IOPD) presented with progressive general muscle weakness and cardiomyopathy. The mean ages of symptom onset and diagnosis were (2.5±1.4) and (5.0±3.0) months, respectively. Twenty-six cases died in the first year after birth.Twenty-three patients with late onset PD (LOPD) presented with progressive muscle weakness. Seven of them had respiratory failure at diagnosis. The mean ages of symptom onset and diagnosis were (12.0±5.0) and (17.0±7.5) years, respectively. Six children with atypical IOPD showed motor delay, muscle weakness and cardiomyopathy. Their diagnosis was confirmed at 2.5-7.0 years of age. Among the 57 patients, 47 different variants were identified in the GAA gene. Three variants: c.797C>T, c.1109G>A and c.1757C>T were novel. c.1935C>A (25/114, 21.9%) and c.2238G>C (15/114, 13.2%) were the most common variants, detected in 57.1% of IOPD and 65.2% (15/23) of LOPD patients, respectively. Among the 28 IOPD patients, 26 cases (92.9%) carried at least one missense variant which indicated positive cross-reactive immunologic material (CRIM). The carrier rate of pathogenic variants in GAA gene among healthy children was 24/2 395. The estimated incidence of PD in this population is about 1/40 000. The frequencies of pseudodeficiency variants c.1726G>A and c.2065G>A homozygotes were 26.3% (15/57) and 35.1% (20/57) in PD patients, which were significantly higher than those (1.7% (40/2 395) and 3.9% (94/2 395)) in healthy children (χ²=151.2, 121.9; both P<0.01). Conclusions: PD presents as a spectrum, some as atypical IOPD. The c.1935C>A and c.2238G>C are common variants, correlated with IOPD and LOPD respectively. The c.796C>T and c.1082C>T are usually found in atypical IOPD. The majority of IOPD patients is predicted to be CRIM positive. The estimated incidence of PD is about 1/40 000.

Abstract
Objectives: A clinical case caused by Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) was introduced into Tianjin, China from Myanmar. The current study is aimed to phylogenetically analyzing this imported strain and to reveal the relationship between this virus and other circulating CHIKV strains. Methods: RNA was extracted from serum of the suspected patient presenting with symptoms compatible with CHIKV infections. Real-time reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) assay was used for diagnoses of the patient. For phylogenetic analysis, envelope glycoprotein 1 (E1) gene of CHIKV was amplified by two-step RT-PCR and the products were sequenced. Results: The phylogenetic analyses revealed that the imported CHIKV belong to Indian Ocean Lineage (IOL) derived from ECSA genotype and sharing the same cluster with the Aede albopitus-adapted strains that triggered the outbreaks in Pakistan (2016), Italy (2017) and Bangladesh (2017). Conclusion: The imported CHIKV strain has the potential to cause explosive outbreaks in China and this event happened in Tianjin calls for strengthening the monitoring programs on mosquito-borne diseases in China.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the receptor pathways of glycated basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) on proliferation and vascularization of human dermal microvascular endothelial cells (HDMECs). Methods: The experimental research method was used. Glycated bFGF stimulating solution was prepared with glucose and bFGF. HDMECs of the third to sixth passages were used in the experiment. Cells were divided into small interfering RNA (siRNA)-positive control group, siRNA-negative control group, siRNA-receptor for advanced glycation end product (RAGE) group, and siRNA-receptor for fibroblast growth factor (FGFR) group and transfected with siRNA-positive control glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, siRNA-negative control, siRNA-RAGE, and siRNA-FGFR for 4 to 6 hours, and then were added into HDMEC culture medium for routine culture. The transfection effect of siRNA was identified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. The cells were divided into normal control group, glycated bFGF alone group, siRNA-RAGE alone group, and siRNA-RAGE+ glycated bFGF group, and seeded into 96-well plate and 6-well plate. Cells in siRNA-RAGE alone group and siRNA-RAGE+ glycated bFGF group were transfected with siRNA-RAGE and then were added into HDMEC culture medium for routine culture. After two days, the original HDMEC culture medium was discarded, and cells in siRNA-RAGE alone group were routinely cultured in HDMEC culture medium, cells in siRNA-RAGE+ glycated bFGF group were routinely cultured in glycated bFGF stimulating solution. Cells in normal control group were routinely cultured in HDMEC culture medium, and cells in glycated bFGF alone group were routinely cultured in glycated bFGF stimulating solution. After transfection with siRNA-RAGE, cells were seeded into 48-well plate and divided into siRNA-RAGE alone group and siRNA-RAGE+ glycated bFGF group. Another cells were directly seeded into 48-well plate without transfection and divided into normal control group and glycated bFGF alone group. Cells in the 4 groups were conducted with the corresponding treatment as above. Cells were divided into normal control group, glycated bFGF alone group, siRNA-FGFR alone group, and siRNA-FGFR+ glycated bFGF group and seeded into 96-, 6-, and 48-well plates, respectively, with the corresponding treatment the same as above. Only siRNA-RAGE was replaced by siRNA-FGFR. Cell counting kit 8 method was used to determine the proliferation of cells after 2 days of culture (sample number was 6), flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis of cells after 2 days of culture (sample number was 3), tube forming test was used to detect the angiogenesis of cells after 6 hours of culture (sample number was 4). Data were statistically analyzed with one-way analysis of variance and least significant difference t test. Results: At the 200 bp band, there were no target genes in siRNA-positive control group, siRNA-RAGE group, or siRNA-FGFR group, but target genes were detected in siRNA-negative control group, indicating the success of siRNA transfection. After 2 days of culture, the absorbance value of cells in glycated bFGF alone group was significantly lower than that of normal control group (t=2.359, P<0.05); absorbance value of cells in siRNA-RAGE+ glycated bFGF group was significantly higher than that of glycated bFGF alone group (t=3.858, P<0.01), which was similar to that of siRNA-RAGE alone group (t=2.148, P>0.05). The absorbance value of cells in siRNA-FGFR+ glycated bFGF group was similar to that of glycated bFGF alone group (t=0.805, P>0.05), but significantly lower than that of siRNA-FGFR alone group (t=4.201, P<0.01). After 2 days of culture, the apoptotic rate of cells in glycated bFGF alone group was significantly higher than that of normal control group (t=2.416, P<0.05). The apoptotic rate of cells in siRNA-RAGE+ glycated bFGF group was significantly lower than the rates in glycated bFGF alone group and siRNA-RAGE alone group (t=3.861, 2.724, P<0.05 or P<0.01). There were no statistically significant differences in apoptosis rate of cells among normal control group, glycated bFGF alone group, siRNA-FGFR alone group, and siRNA-FGFR+ glycated bFGF group (F=2.218, P>0.05). After 6 hours of culture, the number of tubules of cells in normal control group (636±5) was significantly more than that of glycated bFGF alone group (580±8, t=10.825, P<0.01), and the number of tubules of cells in siRNA-RAGE+ glycated bFGF group (647±10) was significantly more than those of glycated bFGF alone group and siRNA-RAGE alone group (628±4, t=13.040, 3.641, P<0.01). After 6 hours of culture, the number of tubules of cells in siRNA-FGFR+ glycated bFGF group (619±5) was more than that of glycated bFGF alone group (t=9.000, P<0.01), but less than that of siRNA-FGFR alone group (632±3, t=2.814, P<0.05). Conclusions: Glycated bFGF affects the proliferation and angiogenesis of HDMEC through RAGE pathway, which may be one of the reasons for impaired wound healing of diabetic skin.

Abstract
We propose a method to suppress the chemical reactions between ultracold bosonic ground-state ^{23}Na^{87}Rb molecules based on optical shielding. By applying a laser with a frequency blue-detuned from the transition between the lowest rovibrational level of the electronic ground state X^{1}Σ^{+}(v_{X}=0,j_{X}=0), and the long-lived excited level b^{3}Π_{0}(v_{b}=0,j_{b}=1), the long-range dipole-dipole interaction between the colliding molecules can be engineered, leading to a dramatic suppression of reactive and photoinduced inelastic collisions, for both linear and circular laser polarizations. We demonstrate that the spontaneous emission from b^{3}Π_{0}(v_{b}=0,j_{b}=1) does not deteriorate the shielding process. This opens the possibility for a strong increase of the lifetime of cold molecule traps and for an efficient evaporative cooling. We also anticipate that the proposed mechanism is valid for alkali-metal diatomics with sufficiently large dipole-dipole interactions.

Abstract
Objective: To develop a fast track transfer to intensive care unit (ICU) for the perioperative high-risk elderly patients after hip fracture surgery and analyze the preliminary clinical effect of the application. Methods: From January 2014 to December 2017, before the application of postoperative fast track transfer to ICU, the clinical data of 195 elderly patients with hip fracture were included in a retrospective analysis. Among 195 hip fracture patients, 18 were transferred to ICU post operation (non-fast track group). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was applied to investigate relevant risk factors for transferring to ICU after hip fracture surgery. Based on risk factors acquired from the analysis and clinical experience, the fast track transfer to ICU for the perioperative high-risk elderly patients after hip fracture surgery was constructed according to the preliminary and experiential criteria. From January 2018 to December 2019, the clinical data of 70 patients (fast track group) who were transferred to ICU after hip fracture surgery through the fast track were collected and compared with non-fast track group. Results: Multivariate regression analysis revealed that American Society of Anesthesiologists classification(≥Ⅲ) (OR=4.260, 95%CI:1.157-15.683, P=0.029), pre-hospital stage (≥48 h) (OR=4.301, 95%CI:1.212-15.266, P=0.024), hemoglobin concentration at admission(<90 g/L) (OR=7.979, 95%CI:1.936-32.889, P=0.004), coronary heart disease as one comorbidity(OR=6.063, 95%CI:1.695-21.693, P=0.006) were independent risk factors for transferring to ICU after hip fracture surgery. There were no significant difference in gender, age, fracture type, hemoglobin concentration at admission and time of pre-hospital stage between the non-fast track group and fast track group(all P>0.05). However, the number of comorbidities in the fast track group was significantly higher than that in the non-fast track group (Z=-1.995, P=0.046). The time to surgery, postoperative hospital stay, and length of hospital stay in fast track group were all significantly less than those in non-fast track group (Z=-2.121, -2.726, -3.130, all P<0.05). Also, there were fewer medical consultations needed and fewer patients who stayed in ICU more than or equal to 2 nights in fast track group than that in non-fast track group(all P<0.05). There were no significant difference in the rate of patients who transferred from the general ward to ICU after transferring from ICU to the general ward, the proportion of patients who received more than or equal to 4 departments, operation time, hospitalization expense, mortality during hospitalization, 30-day mortality and 90-day mortality after operation between the two groups(all P>0.05). Conclusions: The fast track constructed in this study can reduce time to surgery, postoperative hospitalization stay and length of hospitalization stay for the perioperative high-risk elderly patients with hip fractures and is a specific clinical application of eras concept based on multidisciplinary team.

Abstract
Background:Treating to target (T2T) is routine in RA, but no comparable standard has been defined for SLE. In 2015, the definition of Lupus Low Disease Activity State (LLDAS) was generated by Asia-Pacific Lupus Collaboration, and the preliminary validation demonstrated its attainment to be associated with improved outcomes in SLE. A SLEDAI-2K score lower than 4 is the main criteria for LLDAS. SSDM is an interactive mobile disease management application, including application systems for both the doctors and patients.Objectives:To evaluate the patterns of T2T and related influential factors among SLE patients after applying SSDM in real world.Methods:Patients were trained to master SSDM by healthcare professionals in clinics. The first assessment for SLEDAI-2K was performed as the baseline. Patients were required to perform repeated self-assessments after leaving the clinics. The data is synchronized to the SSDM of authorized rheumatologists. Based on the patients’ data, rheumatologists will provide medical advices to the patients.Results:From July 2015 to Jan 2020, 32,559 SLE patients enrolled in SSDM. The mean age is 36.35 years old and median disease duration is 3.85 years. Among them 1,937 SLE patients from 134 hospitals across China were followed up for more than 12 months, and the demographics were summarized in table 1.Table 1.Baseline\Final follow-upn%x <= 4%5 <= x <= 9%10 <= x <= 14%15 <= x%x <= 4104053.69%82078.85%13512.98%504.81%353.37%5 <= x <= 935718.43%23064.43%6016.81%328.96%359.80%10 <= x <= 1422211.46%12054.05%3817.12%4018.02%2410.81%15 <= x31816.42%15649.06%4915.41%4714.78%6620.75%Total1937100%132668.46%28214.56%1698.72%1608.26%The ratio of T2T achievers was 53.69% (1,040/1,937) at the baseline and improved significantly to 68.46% (1,326/1,937) after a 12-month follow-up, p<0.01. Among T2T achievers at the baseline, 78.85% (820/1,040) maintained T2T, and 21.15% (220/1,040) relapsed. Of patients who didn’t achieve T2T at baseline, 56.41% (506/897) of the patients achieve T2T after 12-month follow-up.The impact of the online interaction and the frequency of self-assessment for SLEDAI-2K on T2T has been analyzed. Compared with 1,475 patients who didn’t interact online with their physicians through SSDM, 462 patients with online interaction achieved higher rate of T2T improvement (19.48% vs 13.29%, p<0.05). The more frequent of the self-assessments being performed by patients, the higher improvement of T2T rate will be. The improvement rates of T2T in the subgroups which self-assessed with SSDM by quarterly, bimonthly and monthly were 8.56%, 16.14% and 23.24% respectively. The improvement rate (y) of T2T was positively correlated with the frequency of self-assessment for SLEDAI-2K(x) independently, r = 0.9998. (Figure 1)Conclusion:After proactive disease management via SSDM for more than 12 months, the rate of T2T in SLE patients increased significantly. Online interaction between patients and physicians contributed in promoting T2T improvement rate. The patients who performed more self-assessments through SSDM had higher probability of T2T achievement. SSDM is a valuable tool for long term SLE follow-up through empowering patients.References:Acknowledgments:SSDM was developed by Shanghai Gothic Internet Technology Co., Ltd.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract
Abstract Traditional forensic identification relies on forensic experts to manually extract information and provide identification opinions based on medicine, biology and other fields of knowledge combined with personal work experience, which is not only time-consuming and require great effort, but also affected by subjective factors that are difficult to overcome. In the era of big data, the booming development of artificial intelligence brings new ideas to forensic medicine. In recent years, forensic researchers at home and abroad have conducted many studies based on artificial intelligence technology, such as face recognition, age and gender identification, DNA analysis, postmortem interval estimation, injury and cause of death identification, showing the feasibility and advantages of using artificial intelligence technology to solve forensic identification problems. As a new means of technology that has adapted to the development of the times, artificial intelligence has brought new vitality to forensic medicine, but at the same time also some new challenges. How to deal with these challenges scientifically and form a new mode of 'artificial intelligence plus forensic medicine' with artificial intelligence and forensic medicine developing collaboratively is a new direction for the development of forensic medicine in the era of big data.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify a CT-based radiomics nomogram for survival prediction in patients with resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). METHODS A total of 220 patients (training cohort n = 147; validation cohort n = 73) with PDAC were enrolled. A total of 300 radiomics features were extracted from CT images. And the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator algorithm were applied to select features and develop a radiomics score (Rad-score). The radiomics nomogram was constructed by multivariate regression analysis. Nomogram discrimination, calibration, and clinical usefulness were evaluated. The association of the Rad-score and recurrence pattern in PDAC was evaluated. RESULTS The Rad-score was significantly associated with PDAC patient's disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) (both p < 0.001 in two cohorts). Incorporating the Rad-score into the radiomics nomogram resulted in better performance of the survival prediction than that of the clinical model and TNM staging system. In addition, the radiomics nomogram exhibited good discrimination, calibration, and clinical usefulness in both the training and validation cohorts. There was no association between the Rad-score and recurrence pattern. CONCLUSIONS The radiomics nomogram integrating the Rad-score and clinical data provided better prognostic prediction in resected PDAC patients, which may hold great potential for guiding personalized care for these patients. The Rad-score was not a predictor of the recurrence pattern in resected PDAC patients. KEY POINTS • The Rad-score developed by CT radiomics features was significantly associated with PDAC patients' prognosis. • The radiomics nomogram integrating the Rad-score and clinical data has value to permit non-invasive, low-cost, and personalized evaluation of prognosis in PDAC patients. • The radiomics nomogram outperformed clinical model and the TNM staging system in terms of survival estimation.

Abstract
Lonicera confusa (LC) and Astragali Radix (AR) extracts have been shown to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities in human. To determine whether LC or/and AR extracts had similar functions to improve the egg production and egg quality, 1,440 (52-wk-old) Lohmann pink-shell hens were randomly distributed into 4 treatments with nine replicates of 40 hens. The hens were fed a basal diet (CON) or the basal diet supplemented with 0.1% LC extracts, 0.1% AR extracts, or 0.1% LC extracts plus 0.1% AR extracts (LC-AR) for 12 wk. The eggs were collected on week 6 and 12 for analysis, and the plasma and ovaries were collected at end of trial. Dietary treatment did not influence (P < 0.05) egg production, egg weight, and feed conversion ratio. However, LC-AR addition increased (P < 0.02) yolk color and sensory quality of hard-boiled eggs compared to other groups. The LC-AR supplementation increased (P = 0.02), and LC addition tended to increase (P = 0.08) Haugh unit of eggs on week 12 compared to CON. The LC-AR supplementation decreased (P < 0.001), and LC or AR individual addition tended to decrease (P < 0.10) plasma malondialdehyde concentration compared to CON. Conversely, LC supplementation increased (P = 0.02) total superoxide dismutase activity, and LC or/and AR supplementation increased the activities of manganese-containing superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) (P < 0.08) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) (P < 0.01) in plasma, and the mRNA abundance of MnSOD, GSH-Px1, and catalase in ovaries (P < 0.05) compared to CON. The LC or/and AR supplementation decreased the concentrations of interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) in plasma (P < 0.05), and the mRNA abundance of IL-6 and TNF-α in ovaries (P < 0.04) compared to CON. These results suggested dietary inclusion of LC or/and AR improved the albumen quality, and a blend of LC and AR improved yolk color, which were associated with the enhancement of antioxidant capacity and the suppression of systemic inflammation in hens.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the long-term efficacy of laparoscopic-assisted anorectoplasty and conventional anorectoplasty in the treatment of children with high and middle anal atresia. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was used. Inclusion criteria: (1) children with high and middle anal atresia; (2) complicated with rectourethral or rectovesical fistula; (3) complete follow-up data. Exclusion criteria: (1) complicated with 21-trisomy; (2) cerebral palsy and other mentaldisabilities; (3) Currarino syndrome; (4) FG syndrome. Clinical data of 88 patients with middle and high anal atresia, who complicated with rectourethral fistula or rectovesical fistula, and underwent anoplasty at Department of Pediatric Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2009 to June 2014 were enrolled in the study and analyzed. There were 24 cases with middle atresia and 64 cases with high atresia. All the cases were divided into 2 groups based on the operative method: laparoscopic group (laparoscopic-assisted anorectoplasty, 49 cases), pena group (posterior sagittal anorectoplasty, 39 cases). The demographic features of two groups were comparable. There were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, body mass, classification of anomaly types and sacral ratio (all P>0.05). Student t test and Chi square tests were used to compare the surgical conditions (operative time, postoperative hospital stay and complications), anal function (Kelly score), constipation (Krickenbeck constipation score) and anorectal pressure. Results: Children of both groups all completed operation ssuccessfully. There were no statistically significant differences between laparoscopic group and pena group in the operative time [(120±31) minutes vs. (112±23) minutes, t=1.343, P=0.091] and postoperative hospital stay [(7.1±2.3) days vs. (10.7±3.3) days, t=6.021, P=1.000]. Complications were more common in the pena group [16.3% (8/49) vs. 35.9% (14/39), χ(2)=4.436, P=0.035]. The main complications in laparoscopic group were anal prolapse (8.2%, 4/49) and anal stenosis (6.2%, 3/49), while in pena group were anal stenosis (12.8%, 5/39) and perioperative perianal skin erosion (10.3%, 4/39). As for the anal function, the degree of feces, defecation control and sphincter contractility, the single scoring differences of Kelly scoring system were not statistically significant between the two groups, but the proportion of good function in the laparoscopic group was higher than that in the pena group [67.3% (8/49) vs. 38.5% (15/39), χ(2)=7.308, P=0.007]. Constipation occurred in 6 (12.2%) patients in the laparoscopic group, of whom 5 were improved by diet regulation and 1 required laxatives, while 9 (23.1%) patients developed constipation in the pena group, of whom 4 were improved by diet regulation and 5 required long-term laxatives. The difference of constipation ratio was not statistically significant (χ(2)=1.802, P=0.180). There were no cases of Krickenbeck constipation grade 3. Compared to the pena group, the laparoscopic group had higher anal resting pressure [(33.35±9.69) mmHg vs. (27.68±10.74) mmHg, t=2.599, P=0.011], higher dilating pressure [(9.00±5.61) mmHg vs.(6.51±3.24) mmHg, t=2.462, P=0.016], higher maximal squeeze pressure [(65.80±17.23) mmHg vs. (56.74±18.93) mmHg, t=2.389, P=0.019] and longer maximal contraction time [(21.16±5.02) seconds vs. (18.44±7.24) seconds, t=2.079, P=0.041]. The rectal resting pressure [(5.36±3.00) mmHg vs. (4.61±3.93) mmHg, t=1.015, P=0.312] was not statistically significantly different. Conclusions: Compared with posterior sagittal anorectoplasty, laparoscopic-assisted anorectoplasty in the treatment of high and middle anal atresia has better long-term efficacy with less perioperative complications.

Abstract
Abstract Objective To explore the genetic background and structure of Urumqi Mongolians, the previously developed 39-AIM-InDels panel for ancestry inference was utilized in the present study. Methods The blood samples of 145 unrelated healthy Urumqi Mongolian individuals were collected and genotyped. The compositions of ancestry information of Urumqi Mongolians were studied with 17 different populations from three continents (East Asia, Europe and Africa) as reference populations. Then, multiple population genetics and bioinformatics analysis methods were applied, the Fst and DA values between matched populations were compared and analyzed, PCA analysis was performed and a phylogenetic tree was constructed. The proportions of ancestry information components of Urumqi Mongolians were analyzed with Structure software, etc. Results The ancestry information components of Urumqi Mongolian group in different intercontinental populations accounted for 89%, 7%, and 3% of East Asian, European, and African populations, respectively. Compared with other intercontinental populations, Urumqi Mongolian group and East Asian populations have lower Fst and DA values, and they were in the same cluster in PCA analysis as well. In a phylogenetic tree, the Urumqi Mongolian group was in the same branch as East Asian populations. Conclusion Urumqi Mongolian group had relatively close genetic relationships with East Asian populations, and the proportion of its East Asian ancestry was about 89%.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE MicroRNAs (miRs) are proven to possess diversified functions in the pathogenesis of cardiac diseases. The current study is designed aiming at determining the effect of miR-223 on oxidative stress induced apoptosis in cardiomyocytes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mouse model of myocardial infarction (MI) was constructed, and endogenous level of miR-223 in the border zone of infarcted heart tissues was determined. Primarily cultured cardiomyocytes were exposed to H2O2 treatment to mimic the oxidative stress stimulation. Multiple approaches including quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), cell viability assay, luciferase assay, Western blot assay and flow cytometry assay were employed to determine its expression, function and mechanism in apoptosis. RESULTS MiR-223 expression was significantly upregulated in the border zone of infarcted heart ventricular tissues and in cardiomyocytes treated with H2O2. Overexpression of miR-223 in cardiomyocytes promoted apoptosis, whereas inhibition of endogenous miR-223 protected cardiomyocytes from oxidative stress induced apoptosis. MiR-223 directly targets the 3'untranslated region (UTR) of Foxo3a mRNA. Overexpression of miR-223 inhibited Foxo3a protein expression, however, inhibition of miR-223 suppressed its expression. Silencing Foxo3a using small interfering RNA (siRNA) mimicked the effect of miR-223, indicating its functional significance. CONCLUSIONS MiR-223 is an important regulator of cardiomyocyte apoptosis under oxidative stress. Inhibition of the miR-223/Foxo3a signaling axis may be a potential therapeutic strategy for cardiac injuries.

The lipolysis stimulated lipoprotein receptor (LSR) is an apolipoprotein (Apo) B and ApoE receptor that participates in the removal of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins during the postprandial phase. LSR gene is located upstream of APOE, an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Since the APOE common polymorphism significantly affects the variability of lipid metabolism, this study aimed to determine the potential impact of a functional SNP rs916147 in LSR gene on lipid traits in healthy subjects and to investigate potential epistatic interaction between LSR and APOE. Unrelated healthy adults (N = 432) and children (N = 328, <18 years old) from the STANISLAS Family Study were used. Age-specific epistasis was observed between APOE and LSR, reversing the protective effect of APOE ε2 allele on cholesterol, ApoE and low-density lipoprotein levels (β: .114, P: .777 × 10-8 , β: .125, P: .639 × 10-3 , β: .059, P: .531 × 10-3 , respectively). This interaction was verified in an independent adult population (n = 1744). These results highlight the importance of the LSR polymorphism and reveal the existence of complex molecular links between LSR and ApoE for the regulation of lipid levels, revealing potential new pathways of interest in type III hyperlipidemia and its involvement in CVD pathology.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the current status of uncertainty in illness and caregiving burden in family members of patients with chronic wounds, and to analyze the relationship between them. Methods: A total of 180 patients with chronic wounds admitted to the Department of Emergency of our hospital from October 2017 to March 2018, conforming to the study criteria, were selected by adopting the convenience sampling method. Then one family member who took care of the patients for the longest time and conformed to the study criteria were included in this cross-sectional survey. General Information Questionnaire made by the authors was conducted to investigate the demographic data and wounds of patients, and demographic data of family members. Chinese version of Parent Perception of Uncertainty Scale-Family Member (PPUS-FM) and Caregiver Burden Inventory (CBI) were used to investigate the uncertainty in illness and caregiving burden. Data were processed with multiple linear regression analysis and partial correlation analysis. Results: The effective recovery rate of questionnaire was 91.7% (165/180). (1) The ages of patients were (71±17) years. Among them, there were 89 males and 76 females. The course of chronic wounds was 0.5 to 120.0 months. The wounds were mainly primary occurrence (86.1%, 142 patients), and the main type of wound was pressure ulcer (43.6%, 72 patients). Fifty-seven patients (34.5%) had wound infection. The ages of family members were (56±13) years, and 61.8% (102 people) of them were female. Their daily time of taking care of patients was (10±8) h. (2) The total scores of PPUS-FM of family members were 33 to 125 (88±17) points, mainly in medium level, in which the item score of unpredictability dimension was the highest. (3) The total scores of CBI of family members were 7 to 79 (43±14) points, in which the item score of time-dependence burden dimension was the highest. (4) Uncertainty in PPUS-FM could independently influence 10% of the total variation of caregiving burden in family members of patients (t=3.18, P<0.01). (5) The total scores of PPUS-FM of family members were in significantly positive correlation with the total scores of CBI and scores of physical burden, emotional burden, and social burden, respectively (r=0.33, 0.32, 0.25, 0.36, P<0.05 or P<0.01), while there was no obvious correlation between total scores of PPUS-FM of family members and time-dependence burden/developmental burden (r=0.14, 0.16, P>0.05). Conclusion: There is positive correlation between uncertainty in illness and caregiving burden.

Abstract
AIMS The increasing use of dyes leads to serious environmental concerns, it is significant to explore eco-friendly and economic approaches for dye decolorization. This study aimed to develop mediator cocktail (AS and ABTS) for enhancing the capability of laccase-mediator system in the removal of dyes. METHODS AND RESULTS By mediator screening, the mediators of ABTS and AS (ABTS, 2, 2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazo-thiazoline-6-sulphonic acid); AS, acetosyringone) were combined for dyes decolorization. The Box-Behnken Design and response surface analysis was performed to optimize experiment conditions. Comparing the CotA-ABTS-AS cocktail system with CotA-single mediator system showed that the coupling of ABTS and AS could increase the decolorization rate 15 times higher, save a third of the cost and shorten the reaction time by 50%. In addition, our studies revealed that sequential oxidation may occur in CotA-ABTS-AS system. CONCLUSIONS Compared with CotA laccase-single mediator system, the CotA-ABTS-AS cocktail system showed advantages including higher efficiency, lower cost and shorter reaction time. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This was the first report on the dyes decolorization by laccase mediator cocktail system. These results paved the curb for the application of laccase mediator system in various industrial processes.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the correlation between nucleolus spindle-related protein 1 (NUSAP1) and malignant progression and prognosis of human glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Methods: RT-PCR and immunohistochemical technique were applied to analyze NUSAP1 expression level in GBM surgical specimens. Correlations between NUSAP1 expression and molecular classification and survival of patients with GBM were also investigated in TCGA database. The gene silencing technique was used to silence NUSAP1 expression in U87 cells, CCK-8 assay was used to detect cell proliferation, flow cytometry was used to detect cell cycle changes, and in vivo tumorigenicity was evaluated after NUSAP1 silencing in tumor-bearing mice. Results: NUSAP1 expression level in GBM was higher than that in non-tumor brain tissue. Survival curve analysis showed that the survival time of GBM patients with high NUSAP1 expression decreased significantly (P<0.01). NUSAP1 expression was relatively lower in mesenchymal and neural molecular subtypes of GBM, when compared with the other two molecular subtypes. And it was closely related with specific genetic aberrations (such as PTEN loss and IDH1 mutation). Silencing NUSAP1 inhibited G2/M cell cycle progression of GBM cells, and inhibited cell proliferation both in vitro and in vivo. Conclusion: Expression of NUSAP1 is closely related to progress and prognosis of GBM, and can be a biomarker reflecting GBM prognosis and act as a therapeutic target with potential clinical application value.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the tumor microenvironment of immune tolerance induced by glioma stem cells (GSC). Methods: Human GSC SU3 cells transfected with red fluorescent protein (SU3-RFP) gene were implanted into the brain, subcutis (armpit and foot), liver and abdominal cavity of transgenic green fluorescence protein (GFP) nude mice to establish RFP(+) /GFP(+) dual fluorescence solid tumor model. The re-cultured cells derived from implanted tumor tissues, SU3-RFP cells co-cultured with peritoneal fluid of transgenic GFP nude mice and malignant ascites of tumor-bearing mice were observed by fluorescence microscopy and real-time video image tracing to analyze the microenvironment of immune tolerance mediated by RFP(+) /GFP(+) implanted tumor. Results: Dual fluorescence labeled frozen section showed that all of cells in the tumor microenvironment were GFP(+) , while the pressed tissue-patch showed that the tumor blood vessels exhibited a RFP(+) /GFP(+) double-positioning yellow. In the GFP single fluorescence labeled tumor tissue, all of cells in the microenvironment were green, including tumor edge, necrotic foci and blood vessel. Among them, CD68(+) , F4/80(+) , CD11c(+) , CD11b(+) and CD80(+) cells were observed. In the dual fluorescence labeled co-cultured cells, the phagocytosis and fusion between green host cells and red tumor cells were also observed, and these fusion cells might transfer to the malignant dendritic cells and macrophages. Conclusions: The tumor microenvironment of immune tolerance induced by GSC is not affected by the tissue types of tumor-inoculated sites, and the immune tolerance mediated by inflammatory cells is associated with the inducible malignant transformation, which may be driven by cell fusion.
