Abstract
AIM To investigate the efficacy and safety of beinaglutide as an adjunct to lifestyle intervention among non-diabetic Chinese individuals with overweight or obesity. METHODS This multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (ChiCTR1900023428) included 427 Chinese adults with a body mass index of 28 kg/m2 or higher (obesity) or 24-27.9 kg/m2 (overweight) with weight-related complications. Patients were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive 0.2 mg of beinaglutide (subcutaneous) thrice daily or placebo for 16 weeks. Co-primary endpoints were body weight change and the proportion of patients with a weight reduction of 5% or more. RESULTS Mean body weight change from baseline to week 16 was -6.0% and -2.4% in the beinaglutide (n = 282) and placebo (n = 138) groups, respectively; the mixed model repeated measures difference was -3.6% (95% confidence interval: -4.6% to -2.6%; P < .0001). At week 16, more beinaglutide-treated patients achieved a weight reduction of 5% or more (58.2% vs. 25.4% [placebo], odds ratio: 4.4; P < .0001) and of 10% or more (21.3% vs. 5.1% [placebo], odds ratio: 5.5; P < .0001). Beinaglutide also resulted in greater waist circumference reduction (difference: -1.81 cm; P < .01). The weight regain rate 12 weeks after beinaglutide treatment was 0.78%. Nausea (transient and mild-to-moderate) was the most common adverse event in the beinaglutide group (49.3% vs. 7.1% [placebo]). More patients receiving beinaglutide discontinued treatment because of adverse events (5.9% vs. 0.7% [placebo]). Pancreatitis or an increased resting heart rate was not observed in the beinaglutide group. CONCLUSION Beinaglutide combined with lifestyle intervention resulted in significant and clinically meaningful weight reduction with good tolerance in non-diabetic Chinese individuals with overweight or obesity.

Abstract
Infant-type hemispheric glioma (IHG) is a rare pediatric brain tumor with variable response to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Molecular insights into IHG can be useful in identifying potentially active targeted therapy. A male fetus was found to have congenital hydrocephalus at the gestational age of 37 weeks. Fetal MRI showed a 2.6 × 2.0-cm tumor located at the frontal horn of the left lateral ventricle, involving the left basal nuclei and thalamus. Tumor biopsy at the age of 2 days revealed an IHG consisting of spindle tumor cells with strong expression of GFAP and ALK. Targeted RNA sequencing detected a novel fusion gene of SOX5::ALK. After initial chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide, carboplatin, and etoposide for 2 cycles, the tumor size progressed markedly and the patient underwent a subtotal resection of brain tumor followed by treatment with lorlatinib, an ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor with central nervous system (CNS) activity. After 3 months of treatment, reduction of tumor size was observed. After 14 months of treatment, partial response was achieved, and the infant had normal growth and development. In conclusion, we identified a case of congenital IHG with a novel SOX5::ALK fusion that had progressed after chemotherapy and showed partial response and clinical benefit after treatment with the CNS-active ALK inhibitor lorlatinib.

Abstract
Powered ankle prostheses have been proven to improve the walking economy of people with transtibial amputation. All commercial powered ankle prostheses that are currently available can only perform one-degree-of-freedom motion in a limited range. However, studies have shown that the frontal plane motion during ambulation is associated with balancing. In addition, as more advanced neural interfaces have become available for people with amputation, it is possible to fully recover ankle function by combining neural signals and a robotic ankle. Accordingly, there is a need for a powered ankle prosthesis that can have active control on not only plantarflexion and dorsiflexion but also eversion and inversion. We designed, built, and evaluated a two-degree-of-freedom (2-DoF) powered ankle-foot prosthesis that is untethered and can support level-ground walking. Benchtop tests were conducted to characterize the dynamics of the system. Walking trials were performed with a 77 kg subject that has unilateral transtibial amputation to evaluate system performance under realistic conditions. Benchtop tests demonstrated a step response rise time of less than 50 milliseconds for a torque of 40 N·m on each actuator. The closed-loop torque bandwidth of the actuator is 9.74 Hz. Walking trials demonstrated torque tracking errors (root mean square) of less than 7 N·m. These results suggested that the device can perform adequate torque control and support level-ground walking. This prosthesis can serve as a platform for studying biomechanics related to balance and has the possibility of further recovering the biological function of the ankle-subtalar-foot complex beyond the existing powered ankles.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS In 2023, a new nomenclature of "metabolic associated steatotic liver disease" (MASLD) has emerged by incorporating cardio-metabolic criteria to redefine "non-alcoholic fatty liver disease" (NAFLD). Among steatotic liver disease (SLD), those having no known causes and without any one of cardio-metabolic criteria are deemed to have cryptogenic SLD. This study aims to compare the liver and atherosclerotic risks between MASLD and cryptogenic SLD patients. APPROACH We analyzed participants with liver ultrasound data from the Taiwan Bio-Bank cohort, excluding those with positive HBsAg, positive anti-HCV, or "frequent drinker". MASLD involves hepatic steatosis and any of five cardiometabolic risk factors, whereas cryptogenic SLD features hepatic steatosis without these risk factors. Liver fibrosis severity was assessed by using NAFLD fibrosis score (NFS), while atherosclerosis was determined by carotid plaques on duplex ultrasound. RESULTS Among 17,595 subjects (age 55.47 ± 10.41; males 31.8%), 7538 participants (42.8%) had SLD, comprising 96.5% of MASLD and 3.5% of cryptogenic SLD. Cryptogenic SLD patients are younger and had a lower percentage of male than those with MASLD. After propensity score matching for age and sex, patients with cryptogenic SLD exhibited milder glucose and lipid profiles, fewer carotid plaques, lower liver steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis markers than those with MASLD. CONCLUSIONS In this large population-based study, cryptogenic SLD, the excluded group, occupy only 3.5% in NAFLD patients. It has lower liver and atherosclerotic risks than MASLD, supporting its exclusion from NAFLD and justifying the rationale for the new disease name and diagnostic criteria of MASLD.

Abstract
Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) is an aggressive large B-cell lymphoma with a terminal B-cell differentiation phenotype and is frequently associated with immunodeficiency. We aimed to investigate the clinicopathological and immunophenotypic features, genetic alterations, and mutational landscape of PBL in Taiwan. We retrospectively recruited 26 cases. Five (5/18; 28%) patients were HIV-positive and 21 (81%) presented extranodally. There were two morphological groups: one with purely monomorphic large cells (85%) and the other comprising large cells admixed with plasmacytic cells (15%). Phenotypically, the tumors expressed MYC (8/10; 80%), CD138 (20/26; 77%), and MUM1 (20/20; 100%), but not CD20 (n = 26; 0%). Fourteen (54%) cases were positive for EBV by in situ hybridization; the EBV-positive cases were more frequently HIV infected (p = 0.036), with extranodal presentation (p = 0.012) and CD79a expression (p = 0.012), but less frequent light chain restriction (p = 0.029). Using fluorescence in situ hybridization, we identified 13q14 deletion, MYC rearrangement, and CCND1 rearrangement in 74%, 30%, and 5% cases, respectively, without any cases having rearranged BCL6 or IGH::FGFR3 fusion. In the 15 cases with adequate tissue for whole exome sequencing, the most frequent recurrent mutations were STAT3 (40%), NRAS (27%), and KRAS (20%). In conclusion, most PBL cases in Taiwan were HIV-unrelated. Around half of the cases were positive for EBV, with distinct clinicopathological features. Deletion of chromosome 13q14 was frequent. The PBL cases in Taiwan showed recurrent mutations involving JAK-STAT, RAS-MAPK, epigenetic regulation, and NOTCH signaling pathways, findings similar to that from the West.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE In 2020, metabolic Associated Fatty Liver Disease (MAFLD) was proposed to replace non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with new diagnostic criteria. The prevalence and clinical outcomes of MAFLD subtypes remained unclear. METHODS The participants from Taiwan bio-bank cohort were included. MAFLD was defined as the presence of fatty liver, plus any of the following three conditions: overweight/obesity, diabetes mellitus (DM), or metabolic dysfunction. The patients with positive HBsAg or anti-HCV were considered as chronic HBV or HCV infection. NAFLD fibrosis score (NFS) > 0.676 plus fibrosis 4 (FIB-4) score > 2.67 was defined as advanced liver fibrosis. Atherosclerosis was diagnosed as having carotid plaques on duplex ultrasounds. The clinical outcomes were assessed among four subtypes of MAFLD including DM, obesity, chronic HBV infection, and chronic HCV infection. RESULTS A total of 21,885 participants (mean age 55.34 ± 10.31; 35.69% males) were included in the final analysis. Among them, 38.83% were diagnosed with MAFLD. The prevalence of MAFLD was 66.95% in DM patients, 65.07% in obese participants, 33.74% in chronic HBV patients, and 30.23% in chronic HCV patients. Logistic regression analysis showed that the subtypes of DM and chronic HCV infection were associated with an increased risk of advanced liver fibrosis in MAFLD patients. Additionally, the subtypes of DM and lean were associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis, but a decreased risk of atherosclerosis in the subtype of chronic HBV infection. CONCLUSION This population-based study proves the concept that subtypes of MAFLD can help risk stratification of clinical outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumors (ATRT) is a rare but aggressive malignancy in the central nervous system, predominantly occurring in early childhood. Despite aggressive treatment, the prognosis of ATRT patients remains poor. RRM2, a subunit of ribonucleotide reductase, has been reported as a biomarker for aggressiveness and poor prognostic conditions in several cancers. However, little is known about the role of RRM2 in ATRT. Uncovering the role of RRM2 in ATRT will further promote the development of feasible strategies and effective drugs to treat ATRT. METHODS Expression of RRM2 was evaluated by molecular profiling analysis and was confirmed by IHC in both ATRT patients and PDX tissues. Follow-up in vitro studies used shRNA knockdown RRM2 in three different ATRT cells to elucidate the oncogenic role of RRM2. The efficacy of COH29, an RRM2 inhibitor, was assessed in vitro and in vivo. Western blot and RNA-sequencing were used to determine the mechanisms of RRM2 transcriptional activation in ATRT. RESULTS RRM2 was found to be significantly overexpressed in multiple independent ATRT clinical cohorts through comprehensive bioinformatics and clinical data analysis in this study. The expression level of RRM2 was strongly correlated with poor survival rates in patients. In addition, we employed shRNAs to silence RRM2, which led to significantly decrease in ATRT colony formation, cell proliferation, and migration. In vitro experiments showed that treatment with COH29 resulted in similar but more pronounced inhibitory effect. Therefore, ATRT orthotopic mouse model was utilized to validate this finding, and COH29 treatment showed significant tumor growth suppression and prolong overall survival. Moreover, we provide evidence that COH29 treatment led to genomic instability, suppressed homologous recombinant DNA damage repair, and subsequently induced ATRT cell death through apoptosis in ATRT cells. CONCLUSIONS Collectively, our study uncovers the oncogenic functions of RRM2 in ATRT cell lines, and highlights the therapeutic potential of targeting RRM2 in ATRT. The promising effect of COH29 on ATRT suggests its potential suitability for clinical trials as a novel therapeutic approach for ATRT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with end-stage kidney disease undergoing dialysis are at significant risk of stroke. Whether dialysis modality is associated with cerebrovascular disease is unclear. This study compared the risk of incident stroke in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis or hemodialysis. METHODS Thirty-nine thousand five hundred forty-two patients without a history of stroke who initiated dialysis between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2014 were retrospectively studied using Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database. We matched 3809 patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (mean age 59±13 years; 46.5% women) and 11 427 patients undergoing hemodialysis (mean age 59±13 years; 47.3% women) by propensity score in a 1:3 ratio with follow-up through December 31, 2015. The primary outcome was incident acute ischemic stroke. Secondary outcomes included hemorrhagic stroke, acute coronary syndrome, and all-cause mortality. Cox proportional hazard models were conducted to determine hazard ratios of clinical outcomes according to the dialysis modality. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 2.59 (interquartile range 1.50-3.93) years, acute ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, and acute coronary syndrome occurred in 783 (5.1%), 376 (2.5%), and 1350 (8.9%) patients, respectively. In a multivariable Cox model that accounted for the competing risk of death, acute ischemic stroke occurred more frequently in the peritoneal dialysis group than in the hemodialysis group (subdistribution hazard ratio, 1.32 [95% CI, 1.13-1.54]; P=0.0005). There were no significant treatment-related differences in the risk of hemorrhagic stroke (subdistribution hazard ratio, 0.89 [95% CI, 0.70-1.14]; P=0.3571) and acute coronary syndrome (subdistribution hazard ratio, 0.99 [95% CI, 0.88-1.12]; P=0.9080). Patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis were more likely to die from any cause than patients undergoing hemodialysis (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.24 [95% CI, 1.15-1.33]; P<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Peritoneal dialysis was associated with a significantly increased risk of acute ischemic stroke compared with hemodialysis. Further studies are needed to clarify whether more aggressive cerebrovascular preventive strategies might mitigate the excess risk for ischemic stroke among patients receiving peritoneal dialysis.

Abstract
Phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors (PMT) are uncommon neoplasms that cause hypophosphatemia/osteomalacia mainly by secreting fibroblast growth factor 23. We previously identified FN1::FGFR1/FGF1 fusions in nearly half of the PMTs and frequent KL (Klotho or α-Klotho) overexpression in only those with no known fusion. Here, we studied a larger cohort of PMTs for KL expression and alterations. By FN1 break-apart fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and reappraisal of previous RNA sequencing data, 6 tumors previously considered "fusion-negative" (defined by negative results of FISH for FN1::FGFR1 fusion and FGF1 break-apart and/or of RNA sequencing) were reclassified as fusion-positive PMTs, including 1 containing a novel FN1::ZACN fusion. The final cohort of fusion-negative PMTs included 33 tumors from 32 patients, which occurred in the bone (n = 18), soft tissue (n = 10), sinonasal tract (n = 4), and brain (n = 1). In combination with previous work, RNA sequencing, RNA in situ hybridization, and immunohistochemistry showed largely concordant results and demonstrated KL/α-Klotho overexpression in 17 of the 28 fusion-negative and none of the 10 fusion-positive PMTs studied. Prompted by a patient in this cohort harboring germline KL upstream translocation with systemic α-Klotho overexpression and multifocal PMTs, FISH was performed and revealed KL rearrangement in 16 of the 33 fusion-negative PMTs (one also with amplification), including 14 of the 17 cases with KL/α-Klotho overexpression and none of the 11 KL/α-Klotho-low fusion-negative and 11 fusion-positive cases studied. Whole genomic sequencing confirmed translocation and inversion in 2 FISH-positive cases involving the KL upstream region, warranting further investigation into the mechanism whereby these rearrangements may lead to KL upregulation. Methylated DNA immunoprecipitation and sequencing suggested no major role of promoter methylation in KL regulation in PMT. Interestingly, KL-high/-rearranged cases seemed to form a clinicopathologically homogeneous group, showing a predilection for skeletal/sinonasal locations and typically matrix-poor, cellular solitary fibrous tumor-like morphology. Importantly, FGFR1 signaling pathways were upregulated in fusion-negative PMTs regardless of the KL status compared with non-PMT mesenchymal tumors by gene set enrichment analysis, perhaps justifying FGFR1 inhibition in treating this subset of PMTs.

Abstract
Amphiphilic comb-like random copolymers synthesized from poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMMA) and stearyl methacrylate (SMA) with PEGMMA contents ranging between 30 wt% and 25 wt% were demonstrated to self-assemble into various well-defined nanostructures, including spherical micelles, wormlike micelles, and vesicle-like nanodomains, in anhydride-cured epoxy thermosets. In addition, the polymer blends of the comb-like random copolymer and poly(stearyl methacrylate) were prepared and incorporated into epoxy thermosets to form irregularly shaped nanodomains. Our research findings indicate that both the comb-like random copolymers and polymer blends are suitable as toughening modifiers for epoxy. When added at a concentration of 5 wt%, both types of modifiers lead to substantial improvements in the tensile toughness (>289%) and fracture toughness of epoxy thermosets, with minor reductions in their elastic modulus (<16%) and glass transition temperature (<6.1 °C). The fracture toughness evaluated in terms of the critical stress intensity factor (KIC) and the strain energy release rate (GIC) increased by more than 67% and 131% for the modified epoxy thermosets containing comb-like random copolymers.

Abstract
Although scoliosis is commonly seen in patients with Prader-Willi syndrome, the patterns and extent of the deformity may change along their growth. Increased body weight is another issue in these patients, and its relationship with scoliosis is still controversial. The aim of this study was to evaluate scoliosis in patients with PWS, and its relationship with BMI. This was a retrospective cohort study in which a series of radiographic images and BMI from each patient were collected, and the data were rearranged following the age at which they were recorded. These patients were subsequently labeled as non-Scoliotic (<10°), Moderate (10° - 39°), and Severe (≥40°) according to their final Cobb angle, also as Normal (≤85%), Overweight (86%-95%), and Obese (≥95%) according to final BMI percentage. Thirty-four patients with age from 1 to 20 years old were recruited for this study, and the mean length of follow-up was 6.6 years. The prevalence of scoliosis was 71% (24 patients in Moderate, and 9 patients in Severe), and 65.6% were either overweight (11 patients) or obese (10 patients). The mean BMI percentage in non-scoliotic patients was 93.10 ± 13.84, which was significantly higher than that of the scoliotic groups ( P = 0.0180). When looking at the longitudinal change, the non-Scoliotic group had high BMI since childhood, and obese patients had less spine deformity also from early childhood. In this study, we found that the prevalence of scoliosis in Taiwanese population with PWS was 71% without gender preference. Not every patient had a high BMI, and obese patients seemed to have significantly less chance to develop scoliosis. Level III.

Abstract
We present the precision measurements of 11 years of daily cosmic positron fluxes in the rigidity range from 1.00 to 41.9 GV based on 3.4×10^{6} positrons collected with the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) aboard the International Space Station. The positron fluxes show distinctly different time variations from the electron fluxes at short and long timescales. A hysteresis between the electron fluxes and the positron fluxes is observed with a significance greater than 5σ at rigidities below 8.5 GV. On the contrary, the positron fluxes and the proton fluxes show similar time variation. Remarkably, we found that positron fluxes are modulated more than proton fluxes with a significance greater than 5σ for rigidities below 7 GV. These continuous daily positron fluxes, together with AMS daily electron, proton, and helium fluxes over an 11-year solar cycle, provide unique input to the understanding of both the charge-sign and mass dependencies of cosmic rays in the heliosphere.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pathological form of synaptic plasticity, ischemic long-term potentiation (iLTP), induced by oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD), is implicated in the acute phase of stroke with the potentiation of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR). While there has been widespread attention on the excitatory system, a recent study reported that γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic system is also involved in iLTP. Valproic acid (VPA), a histone deacetylase inhibitor, protects against ischemic damage. However, whether VPA regulates early phase plasticity in ischemic stroke remains unknown. The present study aims to investigate the potential role and mechanism of VPA in ischemic stroke. METHODS A brief exposure of OGD on the hippocampal slices and the induction of photothrombotic ischemia (PTI) were used as ex vivo and in vivo models of ischemic stroke, respectively. RESULTS Using extracellular recordings, iLTP was induced in the hippocampal Schaffer collateral pathway following OGD exposure. VPA treatment abolished hippocampal iLTP via GABAA receptor enhancement and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation. Administration of VPA reduced brain infarct volume and motor dysfunction in mice with PTI. Moreover, VPA protected against ischemic injury by upregulating the GABAergic system and ERK phosphorylation, as well as by reducing of matrix metalloproteinase in a PTI-induced ischemic stroke model. CONCLUSIONS Together, this study revealed the protection of VPA in ex vivo OGD-induced pathological form of neuroplasticity and in vivo PTI-induced brain damage and motor dysfunction through rescuing GABAergic deficiency and the pathological hallmarks of ischemia.

Abstract
Background & Aims The new name and diagnostic criteria of metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) was proposed in 2020. Although chronic HBV infection has protective effects on lipid profiles and hepatic steatosis, the impact of chronic HBV infection on clinical outcomes of MAFLD requires further investigation. Methods The participants from a Taiwan bio-bank cohort were included. MAFLD is defined as the presence of hepatic steatosis plus any of the following three conditions: overweight/obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and metabolic dysfunction. The patients with positive glycated haemoglobin were considered as having chronic HBV infection. Atherosclerosis was determined as having carotid plaques on duplex ultrasound. Advanced liver fibrosis was defined as Fibrosis-4 >2.67. Based on the status of MAFLD and HBV infection, the participants were distributed into four groups: 'dual aetiology', 'MAFLD alone', 'HBV alone', and 'healthy controls'. Results A total of 20,460 participants (age 55.51 ± 10.37; males 32.67%) were included for final analysis. The prevalence of MAFLD and chronic HBV infections were 38.8% and 10.3%, respectively. According to univariate analysis, 'HBV alone' group had lower levels of glycated haemoglobin, lipid profiles, and intima media thickness than healthy controls. The 'dual aetiology' group had lower levels of triglycerides, cholesterol, γ-glutamyl transferase, intima media thickness, and percentage of carotid plaques than 'MAFLD alone' group. Using binary logistic regression, chronic HBV infection increased the overall risk of advanced liver fibrosis; and had a lower probability of carotid plaques in MAFLD patients, but not in those without MAFLD. Conclusions The large population-based study revealed chronic HBV infection increases the overall risk of liver fibrosis, but protects from atherosclerosis in patients with MAFLD. Impact and implications Patients with metabolic-associated fatty liver disease can also be coinfected with chronic HBV. Concomitant HBV infection increases the overall risk of liver fibrosis, but protects from atherosclerosis in patients with MAFLD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS While patients undergoing dialysis have substantially increased cardiovascular event rates compared with the general population, predicting individual risk remains difficult. Whether diabetic retinopathy (DR) is associated with cardiovascular diseases in this population is unclear. METHODS AND RESULTS We conducted a nationwide cohort study of 27,686 incident hemodialysis patients with type 2 diabetes who were enrolled in Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2014, and had follow-up data until December 31, 2015. The primary outcome was a composite of macrovascular events, including acute coronary syndrome (ACS), acute ischemic stroke, and peripheral artery disease (PAD). A total of 10,537 (38.1%) patients had DR at baseline. We matched 9164 patients without DR (mean age, 63.7 years; 44.0% women) to 9164 patients with DR (mean age, 63.5 years; 43.8% women) by propensity score. During a median follow-up of 2.4 years, 5204 patients in the matched cohort experienced a primary outcome. The presence of DR was associated with a higher risk of a primary outcome (subdistribution hazard ratio [sHR] 1.07; 95% CI, 1.01-1.13), which reflected a higher risk of acute ischemic stroke (sHR 1.26; 95% CI, 1.14-1.39) and PAD (sHR 1.14; 95% CI, 1.05-1.25) but not ACS (sHR 0.99; 95% CI, 0.92-1.06). CONCLUSIONS The presence of DR signifies an increased risk of acute ischemic stroke and PAD in hemodialysis patients with type 2 diabetes, independent of the known risk factors. These results highlight the need for more comprehensive cardiovascular assessment and management in hemodialysis patients with DR.

Abstract
Extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma (EMC) is an ultrarare sarcoma typically exhibiting myxoid/reticular histology and NR4A3 translocation. However, morphologic variants and the relevance of non-EWSR1::NR4A3 fusions remain underexplored. Three challenging pan-Trk-expressing cases, featuring cellular to solid histology, were subjected to RNA exome sequencing (RES), unveiling different NR4A3-associated fusions. Alongside RES-analyzed cases, fluorescence in situ hybridization was performed to confirm 58 EMCs, with 48 available for pan-Trk immunostaining and KIT sequencing. Except for 1 (2%) NR4A3-rearranged EMC without identifiable partners, 46 (79%), 9 (16%), and 2 (3%) cases harbored EWSR1::NR4A3, TAF15::NR4A3, and TCF12::NR4A3 fusions, respectively. Five EWSR1::NR4A3-positive EMCs occurred in the subcutis (3) and bone (2). Besides 43 classical cases, there were 8 cellular, 4 rhabdoid/anaplastic, 2 solid, and 1 mixed tumor-like variants. Tumor cells were oval/spindle to pleomorphic and formed loose myxoid/reticular to compact sheet-like or fascicular patterns, imparting broad diagnostic considerations. RES showed upregulation of NTRK2/3, KIT, and INSM1. Moderate-to-strong immunoreactivities of pan-Trk, CD117, and INSM1 were present in 35.4%, 52.6%, and 54.6% of EMCs, respectively. KIT p. E554K mutation was detected in 2/48 cases. TAF15::NR4A3 was significantly associated with size >10 cm (78%, P = .025). Size >10 cm, moderate-to-severe nuclear pleomorphism, metastasis at presentation, TAF15::NR4A3 fusion, and the administration of chemotherapy portended shorter univariate disease-specific survival, whereas only size >10 cm (P = .004) and metastasis at presentation (P = .032) remained prognostically independent. Conclusively, EMC may manifest superficial or osseous lesions harboring EWSR1::NR4A3, underrecognized solid or anaplastic histology, and pan-Trk expression, posing tremendous challenges. Most TAF15::NR4A3-positive cases were >10 cm in size, ie, a crucial independent prognosticator, whereas pathogenic KIT mutation rarely occurred.

Abstract
We report the properties of primary cosmic-ray sulfur (S) in the rigidity range 2.15 GV to 3.0 TV based on 0.38×10^{6} sulfur nuclei collected by the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer experiment (AMS). We observed that above 90 GV the rigidity dependence of the S flux is identical to the rigidity dependence of Ne-Mg-Si fluxes, which is different from the rigidity dependence of the He-C-O-Fe fluxes. We found that, similar to N, Na, and Al cosmic rays, over the entire rigidity range, the traditional primary cosmic rays S, Ne, Mg, and C all have sizeable secondary components, and the S, Ne, and Mg fluxes are well described by the weighted sum of the primary silicon flux and the secondary fluorine flux, and the C flux is well described by the weighted sum of the primary oxygen flux and the secondary boron flux. The primary and secondary contributions of the traditional primary cosmic-ray fluxes of C, Ne, Mg, and S (even Z elements) are distinctly different from the primary and secondary contributions of the N, Na, and Al (odd Z elements) fluxes. The abundance ratio at the source for S/Si is 0.167±0.006, for Ne/Si is 0.833±0.025, for Mg/Si is 0.994±0.029, and for C/O is 0.836±0.025. These values are determined independent of cosmic-ray propagation.

Abstract
We present the precision measurements of 11 years of daily cosmic electron fluxes in the rigidity interval from 1.00 to 41.9 GV based on 2.0×10^{8} electrons collected with the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) aboard the International Space Station. The electron fluxes exhibit variations on multiple timescales. Recurrent electron flux variations with periods of 27 days, 13.5 days, and 9 days are observed. We find that the electron fluxes show distinctly different time variations from the proton fluxes. Remarkably, a hysteresis between the electron flux and the proton flux is observed with a significance of greater than 6σ at rigidities below 8.5 GV. Furthermore, significant structures in the electron-proton hysteresis are observed corresponding to sharp structures in both fluxes. This continuous daily electron data provide unique input to the understanding of the charge sign dependence of cosmic rays over an 11-year solar cycle.

Abstract
Twelve Asian patients with sarcoma received interval-compressed (ic-) chemotherapy scheduled every 14 days with a regimen of vincristine (2 mg/m2), doxorubicin (75 mg/m2), and cyclophosphamide (1200-2200 mg/m2) (VDC) alternating with a regimen of ifosfamide (9000 mg/m2) and etoposide (500 mg/m2) (IE), with filgrastim (5-10 mcg/kg/day) between cycles. Carboplatin (800 mg/m2) was added for CIC-rearranged sarcoma. The patients were treated with 129 cycles of ic-VDC/IE with a median interval of 19 days (interquartile range [IQR], 15-24 days. Median nadirs (IQR) were neutrophil count, 134 (30-396) × 106/L at day 11 (10-12), recovery by day 15 (14-17) and platelet count, 35 (23-83) × 109/L at day 11 (10-13), recovery by day 17 (14-21). Fever and bacteremia were observed in 36% and 8% of cycles, respectively. The diagnoses were Ewing sarcoma (6), rhabdomyosarcoma (3), myoepithelial carcinoma (1), malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (1), and CIC-DUX4 Sarcoma (1). Seven of the nine patients with measurable tumors responded (one CR and six PR). Interval-compressed chemotherapy is feasible in the treatment of Asian children and young adults with sarcomas.

Abstract
Treatment-resistant depression (TRD) is a condition wherein patients with depression fail to respond to antidepressant trials. A new form of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), called theta-burst stimulation (TBS), which includes intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) and continuous theta-burst stimulation (cTBS), is non-inferior to rTMS in TRD treatment. However, the mechanism of iTBS and cTBS underlying the treatment of TRD in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) remains unclear. Hence, we applied foot-shock stress as a traumatic event to develop a TRD rat model and investigated the different mechanisms of iTBS and cTBS. The iTBS and cTBS treatment were effective in depressive-like behavior and active coping behavior. The iTBS treatments improved impaired long-term potentiation and long-term depression (LTD), whereas the cTBS treatment only improved aberrant LTD. Moreover, the decrease in mature brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)-related protein levels were reversed by iTBS treatment. The decrease in proBDNF-related protein expression was improved by iTBS and cTBS treatment. Both iTBS and cTBS improved the decreased α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptors and downregulation of mammalian target of the rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway. The iTBS produces both excitatory and inhibitory synaptic effects, and the cTBS only produces inhibitory synaptic effects in the PFC.

Abstract
Primary intracranial ependymoma is a challenging tumor to treat despite the availability of multidisciplinary therapeutic modalities, including surgical resection, radiotherapy, and adjuvant chemotherapy. After the completion of initial treatment, when resistant tumor cells recur, salvage therapy needs to be carried out with a more precise strategy. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have specifically been detected and validated for patients with primary or recurrent diffused glioma. The CTC drug screening platform can be used to perform a mini-invasive liquid biopsy for potential drug selection. The validation of potential drugs in a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mouse model based on the same patient can serve as a preclinical testing platform. Here, we present the application of a drug testing model in a six-year-old girl with primary ependymoma on the posterior fossa, type A (EPN-PFA). She suffered from tumor recurrence with intracranial and spinal seeding at 2 years after her first operation and extraneural metastases in the pleura, lung, mediastinum, and distant femoral bone at 4 years after initial treatment. The CTC screening platform results showed that everolimus and entrectinib could be used to decrease CTC viability. The therapeutic efficacy of these two therapeutic agents has also been validated in a PDX mouse model from the same patient, and the results showed that these two therapeutic agents significantly decreased tumor growth. After precise drug screening and the combination of focal radiation on the femoral bone with everolimus chemotherapy, the whole-body bone scan showed significant shrinkage of the metastatic tumor on the right femoral bone. This novel approach can combine liquid biopsy, CTC drug testing platforms, and PDX model validation to achieve precision medicine in rare and challenging tumors with extraneural metastases.

Abstract
The pulmonary artery catheter (PAC)-despite its invasiveness-remains the gold standard for cardiac output (CO) monitoring. The FloTrac system, a less invasive hemodynamic monitor has been developed, which estimates CO using arterial pressure waveform analysis without external calibration. Recently, an upgraded version of FloTrac system with improved algorithm to follow changes in vascular resistance was introduced into the market. The aim of this study was to assess the reliability of the CO estimated from the fourth-generation FloTrac/EV1000 system (COFT) compared to that measured with PAC using the thermodilution method (COPAC) during robotic-assisted off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) surgery. COFT and COPAC were obtained simultaneously at 4 predefined time points during robotic-assisted OPCAB: 5 min after the induction of general anesthesia (T1), after starting one-lung ventilation (T2), after capnothorax (T3), and after mini-thoracotomy was performed (T4). The agreement of data was investigated by Bland-Altman analysis. Thirty-four patients were initially enrolled. After exclusion, 32 patients and a total of 128 paired CO measurements were obtained. The overall bias was 1.46 L/min, the 95% limits of agreements were - 3.40 to 6.33 L/min, and the percentage error was 72.98%. Regression analysis of the systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI) and the bias between COPAC and COFT showed that the bias was moderately correlated with the SVRI (r2 = 0.43; p < 0.0001). Despite a software upgrade, the reliability of the fourth-generation FloTrac/EV1000™ system during robotic-assisted OPCAB to estimate CO was not acceptable, especially in patients with low SVRI.

Abstract
Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (BPOP) (Nora lesion) is a benign bone surface lesion, which most commonly occurs in the digits of young patients and has a high rate of recurrence. Histologically, it is composed of a mixture of disorganized bone, cartilage, and spindle cells in variable proportions and characterized by amorphous "blue bone" mineralization. Recurrent chromosomal abnormalities, including t(1;17)(q32-42;q21-23) and inv(7)(q21.1-22q31.3-32), have been reported in BPOP. However, the exact genes involved in the rearrangements remain unknown. In this study, we analyzed 8 BPOP cases affecting the fingers, toe, ulna, radius, and fibula of 5 female and 3 male patients, aged 5 to 68 years. RNA sequencing of 5 cases identified genetic fusions between COL1A2 and LINC-PINT in 3 cases and COL1A1::MIR29B2CHG fusion in 1, both validated using fluorescence in situ hybridization and reverse transcription (RT)-PCR. The remaining fusion-negative case harbored 3 COL1A1 mutations as revealed by whole-exome sequencing and confirmed using Sanger sequencing. All these genetic alterations were predicted to cause frameshift and/or truncation of COL1A1/2. The chromosomal locations of COL1A2 (7q21.3), LINC-PINT (7q32.3), COL1A1 (17q21.33), and MIR29B2CHG (1q32.2) were consistent with the breakpoints identified in the previous cytogenetic studies. Subsequent screening of 3 BPOPs using fluorescence in situ hybridization identified 1 additional case each with COL1A1 or COL1A2 rearrangement. Our findings are consistent with reported chromosomal abnormalities and implicate the disruption of type I collagen, and perhaps of either noncoding RNA gene as a tumor suppressor, in the tumorigenesis of BPOP. The prevalence and tumorigenic mechanisms of these COL1A1/2 alterations in BPOP require further investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies have established a close link between diabetes mellitus (DM) and an increased risk of vascular dementia (VD). In this study, we evaluated the risk of VD in patients with type 2 diabetes who were on antidiabetic medications. METHODS There is a growing interest in observational and data-driven studies to answer specific research questions for defined populations. In line with this, 67,281 patients (age range, 61.95 ± 13.88 years; length of follow up, 3.2 ± 3.4 years) diagnosed with DM were divided into two groups:48,072 subjects who had not used dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) medication and 19,209 subjects who had taken DPP-4 medication. Each patient underwent follow-up examination after the date of the latest diagnosis. RESULTS Among 10,884 DM patients with dementia, the combination therapy of metformin and DPP-4 inhibitor may increase the risk of dementia compared with that in the control group (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.11; 95% confidence interval, 1.06-1.15; p ≤ 0.001). CONCLUSION In this study, patients who received a combination therapy of metformin and DPP-4 inhibitor for DM were at a higher risk of dementia than those who received monotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND KRAS is a frequently mutated oncogene in human cancer. Clinical studies on the covalent inhibitors of the KRASG12C mutant have reported promising results. However, primary and acquired resistance may limit their clinical use. METHODS Sotorasib-resistant cell lines were established. We explored the signalling pathways activated in these resistant cell lines and their roles in sotorasib resistance. RESULTS The resistant cells exhibited increased cell-matrix adhesion with increased levels of stress fibres and focal adherens. p21-activated kinases (PAKs) were activated in resistant cells, which phosphorylate MEK at serine 298 of MEK and serine 338 of c-Raf to activate the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. The PAK inhibitors FRAX597 and FRAX486 in synergy with sotorasib reduced the viability of KRASG12C mutant cancer cells. Furthermore, the PI3K/AKT pathway was constitutively active in sotorasib-resistant cells. The overexpression of constitutively activated PI3K or the knockdown of PTEN resulted in resistance to sotorasib. PI3K inhibitor alpelisib was synergistic with sotorasib in compromising the viability of KRASG12C mutant cancer cells. Moreover, PI3K and PAK pathways formed a mutual positive regulatory loop that mediated sotorasib resistance. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that the cell-matrix interaction-dependent activation of PAK mediates resistance to sotorasib through the activation of MAPK and PI3K pathways.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Early identification of traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients at a high risk of mortality is very important. This study aimed to compare the predictive accuracy of four scoring systems in TBI, including shock index (SI), modified shock index (MSI), age-adjusted shock index (ASI), and reverse shock index multiplied by the Glasgow Coma Scale (rSIG). PATIENTS AND METHODS This is a retrospective analysis of a registry from the Taipei Tzu Chi trauma database. Totally, 1,791 patients with TBI were included. We investigated the accuracy of four major shock indices for TBI mortality. In the subgroup analysis, we also analyzed the effects of age, injury mechanism, underlying diseases, TBI severity, and injury severity. RESULTS The predictive accuracy of rSIG was significantly higher than those of SI, MSI, and ASI in all the patients [area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC), 0.710 vs. 0.495 vs. 0.527 vs. 0.598], especially in the moderate/severe TBI (AUROC, 0.625 vs. 0.450 vs. 0.476 vs. 0.529) and isolated head injury populations (AUROC 0.689 vs. 0.472 vs. 0.504 vs. 0.587). In the subgroup analysis, the prediction accuracy of mortality of rSIG was better in TBI with major trauma [Injury Severity Score (ISS) ≥ 16], motor vehicle collisions, fall injury, and healthy and cardiovascular disease population. rSIG also had a better prediction effect, as compared to SI, MSI, and ASI, both in the non-geriatric (age < 65 years) and geriatric (age ≥ 65 years). CONCLUSION rSIG had a better prediction accuracy for mortality in the overall TBI population than SI, MSI, and ASI. Although rSIG have better accuracy than other indices (ROC values indicate poor to moderate accuracy), the further clinical studies are necessary to validate our results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mortality after myocardial infarction (MI) among patients undergoing dialysis is high. However, studies investigating the use of secondary prevention medications after MI and clinical outcomes in dialysis patients are lacking. This study aimed to examine the association of the number of guideline-recommended medications (antiplatelets, β-blockers, statins and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors) with all-cause mortality after MI in hemodialysis (HD) patients. METHODS We conducted a nationwide cohort study of incident HD patients who were admitted for MI between 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2014 and were followed up until 31 December 2015, using Taiwan's national health insurance research database. RESULTS Of 1471 patients (mean age 68 years, 41.9% women) included in the analysis, 281 (19.1%) were treated with one cardioprotective medication, 406 (27.6%) with two, 490 (33.3%) with three and 294 (20%) with four. During a median follow-up of 1.0 years, 458 (31.1%) patients died. In a multivariable Cox model, each additional use of guideline-recommended therapies was associated with a significant 12% reduction in the risk of mortality {hazard ratio [HR] 0.88 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.80-0.97]}. Similar results were obtained in the analysis with the inverse probability of treatment weighting [HR 0.84 (95% CI 0.77-0.92)] and in the propensity score-matched subcohort [HR 0.87 (95% CI 0.77-0.98)]. The decreased mortality risk was consistently observed across all subgroups. CONCLUSIONS The use of more evidence-based medications for secondary prevention after MI was associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality in HD patients.

Abstract
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is an extremely common head and neck cancer with a poor 5-year survival rate, especially in cases of metastatic disease. Interleukin (IL)-11 reportedly promotes cell growth and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition process in metastasis. However, the molecular mechanisms of IL-11 in OSCC metastasis are unclear. This study found that IL-11 upregulates matrix metalloproteinase 13 (MMP-13) expression in OSCC via the IL-11 receptor alpha subunit/glycoprotein 130 receptors that activate phosphatidyl-inositol 3-kinase, Ak strain transforming, and activator protein 1 signaling, which subsequently enhance MMP-13-induced tumor metastasis. TIMER2.0 analysis revealed a positive correlation between MMP-13 and IL-11 levels (r = 0.454). Moreover, a strong positive association was observed between higher levels of IL-11 expression in OSCC tissue (p < 0.01), lymph node metastasis (p = 0.0154), and clinical disease stage (p = 0.0337). IL-11 knockdown suppressed the migration of OSCC cells (p < 0.05). The evidence indicates that IL-11 can serve as a new molecular therapeutic target in OSCC metastasis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antipsychotic drug (APD) treatment has been associated with metabolic abnormalities. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is the main site of adaptive thermogenesis and secretes various metabolism-improving factors known as batokines. We explored the association of BAT activity with APD treatment and metabolic abnormalities in patients with schizophrenia by measuring the blood levels of bone morphogenetic protein 8b (BMP8b), a batokine secreted by mature BAT. METHODS BMP8b levels were compared among 50 drug-free, 32 aripiprazole-treated, and 91 clozapine-treated patients with schizophrenia. Regression analysis was used to explore factors, including APD types, that might be associated with BMP8b levels and the potential effect of BMP8b on metabolic syndrome (MS). RESULTS APD-treated patients had decreased BMP8b levels relative to drug-free patients. The difference still existed after adjustment for body mass index and Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale scores. Among APD-treated group, clozapine was associated with even lower BMP8b levels than the less obesogenic APD, aripiprazole. Furthermore, higher BMP8b levels were associated with lower risks of MS after adjustment for BMI and APD treatment. CONCLUSION Using drug-free patients as the comparison group to understand the effect of APDs, this is the first study to show APD treatment is associated with reduced BAT activity that is measured by BMP8b levels, with clozapine associated a more significant reduction than aripiprazole treatment. BMP8b might have a beneficial effect against metabolic abnormalities and this effect is independent of APD treatment. Future studies exploring the causal relationship between APD treatment and BMP8b levels and the underlying mechanisms are warranted.

Abstract
Objectives Trauma is one of the leading causes of death and its incidence increases annually. The "weekend effect" and "holiday season effect" on traumatic injury mortality remain controversial, whereby traumatic injury patients admitted during weekends and/or holiday season have a higher risk of in-hospital death. The present study is aimed to explore the association between "weekend effect" and "holiday season effect" and mortality in traumatic injury population. Materials and Methods This retrospective descriptive study included patients from the Taipei Tzu Chi Hospital Trauma Database between January 2009 and June 2019. The exclusion criterion was age of < 20 years. The primary outcome was the in-hospital mortality rate. The secondary outcomes included intensive care unit (ICU) admission, ICU re-admission, length of stay (LOS) in the ICU, ICU admission duration ≥ 14 days, total hospital LOS, total hospital LOS ≥ 14 days, need for surgery, and re-operation rate. Results In this study, 11,946 patients were included in the analysis, and 8143 (68.2%) patients were admitted on weekdays, 3050 (25.5%) on weekends, and 753 (6.3%) on holidays. Multivariable logistic regression revealed that the admission day was not associated with an increased risk of in-hospital mortality. In other clinical outcome analyses, we found no significant increase in the risk of in-hospital mortality, ICU admission, ICU LOS ≥ 14 days, or total LOS ≥ 14 days in the weekend and holiday season groups. The subgroup analysis showed that the association between holiday season admission and in-hospital mortality was noted only in the elderly and shock condition populations. The holiday season duration did not differ in terms of in-hospital mortality. Longer holiday season duration was also not associated with an increased risk of in-hospital mortality, ICU LOS ≥14 days, and total LOS ≥14 days. Conclusion In this study, we did not find any evidence that weekend and holiday season admissions in the traumatic injury population were associated with an increased risk of mortality. In other clinical outcome analyses, there was no significant increase in the risk of in-hospital mortality, ICU admission, ICU LOS ≥ 14 days, or total LOS ≥ 14 days in the weekend and holiday season groups.

Abstract
The clinicopathologic relevance of various gene rearrangements underlying dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) remains insufficiently characterized. In 188 DFSPs, we determined PDGFB, COL1A1, PDGFD, COL6A3, and EMILIN2 rearrangements by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The clinicopathologic significance of rearrangement types and factors related to recurrence and metastasis were statistically analyzed. In all, classic PDGFB rearrangement, cryptic COL1A1-PDGFB fusion, and PDGFD rearrangement were identified in 172 (91.4%), 8 (4.3%), and 8 (4.3%: 4 COL6A3-PDFGD, 4 EMILIN2-PDGFD) cases, respectively. In an index DFSP harboring the cryptic fusion, the COL1A1-PDGFB transcript was confirmed by both RNA sequencing and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. In comparison with cases harboring classic PDGFB rearrangement, cryptic PDGFB-rearranged DFSPs usually exhibited higher 5'-COL1A1 copy numbers. In a combined reappraisal of published and current cases, COL6A3-PDGFD-positive DFSPs (n=16) predominated in females (n=14, 88%) and torso (n=14, 88%), especially the breast (n=7, 44%); EMILIN2-PDGFD-positive DFSPs (n=6) preferentially demonstrated near exclusively subcutaneous growth (n=5, 83%) and fibrosarcomatous transformation (n=5, 83%). In our cohort, local recurrence was related to fibrosarcomatous variant (P=0.029, odds ratio=3.478) and head and neck location (P=0.046, odds ratio=3.508). Distant metastasis only occurred in the fibrosarcomatous variant (9/73, 12.3%) but not in other cases. In conclusion, 8.6% of DFSPs are negative for PDGFB break-apart FISH, which, especially those with challenging subcutaneous and circumscribed manifestation, require complementary diagnosis by FISH assays targeting COL1A1 and PDGFD. The types of fusion gene rearrangements, head and neck location, and fibrosarcomatous transformation may account for clinicopathologic and prognostic variations in DFSPs and warrant future independent validation.

Abstract
Background Inflammation is a potential risk factor of mental disturbance. FKBP5 that encodes FK506-binding protein 51 (FKBP51), a negative cochaperone of glucocorticoid receptor (GR), is a stress-inducible gene and has been linked to psychiatric disorders. Yet, the role of FKBP51 in the inflammatory stress-associated mental disturbance remained unclear. Methods Fkbp5-deficient (Fkbp5-KO) mice were used to study inflammatory stress by a single intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The anxiety-like behaviors, neuroimaging, immunofluorescence staining, immunohistochemistry, protein and mRNA expression analysis of inflammation- and neurotransmission-related mediators were evaluated. A dexamethasone drinking model was also applied to examine the effect of Fkbp5-KO in glucocorticoid-induced stress. Results LPS administration induced FKBP51 elevation in the liver and hippocampus accompanied with transient sickness. Notably, Fkbp5-KO but not wild-type (WT) mice showed anxiety-like behaviors 7 days after LPS injection (LPS-D7). LPS challenge rapidly increased peripheral and central immune responses and hippocampal microglial activation followed by a delayed GR upregulation on LPS-D7, and these effects were attenuated in Fkbp5-KO mice. Whole-brain [18F]-FEPPA neuroimaging, which target translocator protein (TSPO) to indicate neuroinflammation, showed that Fkbp5-KO reduced LPS-induced neuroinflammation in various brain regions including hippocampus. Interestingly, LPS elevated glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65), the membrane-associated GABA-synthesizing enzyme, in the hippocampus of WT but not Fkbp5-KO mice on LPS-D7. This FKBP51-dependent GAD65 upregulation was observed in the ventral hippocampal CA1 accompanied by the reduction of c-Fos-indicated neuronal activity, whereas both GAD65 and neuronal activity were reduced in dorsal CA1 in a FKBP51-independent manner. GC-induced anxiety was also examined, which was attenuated in Fkbp5-KO and hippocampal GAD65 expression was unaffected. Conclusions These results suggest that FKBP51/FKBP5 is involved in the systemic inflammation-induced neuroinflammation and hippocampal GR activation, which may contribute to the enhancement of GAD65 expression for GABA synthesis in the ventral hippocampus, thereby facilitating resilience to inflammation-induced anxiety.

Abstract
We present the precision measurement of 2824 daily helium fluxes in cosmic rays from May 20, 2011 to October 29, 2019 in the rigidity interval from 1.71 to 100 GV based on 7.6×10^{8} helium nuclei collected with the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) aboard the International Space Station. The helium flux and the helium to proton flux ratio exhibit variations on multiple timescales. In nearly all the time intervals from 2014 to 2018, we observed recurrent helium flux variations with a period of 27 days. Shorter periods of 9 days and 13.5 days are observed in 2016. The strength of all three periodicities changes with time and rigidity. In the entire time period, we found that below ∼7 GV the helium flux exhibits larger time variations than the proton flux, and above ∼7 GV the helium to proton flux ratio is time independent. Remarkably, below 2.4 GV a hysteresis between the helium to proton flux ratio and the helium flux was observed at greater than the 7σ level. This shows that at low rigidity the modulation of the helium to proton flux ratio is different before and after the solar maximum in 2014.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is characterized by fibrous stroma and clinical behavior more aggressive than that of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Scirrhous HCC is a subtype of HCC with fibrous stroma, frequently has partial cholangiocytic differentiation, and is more likely to have an aggressive behavior. This study explored the interaction of liver cancer cells with the extracellular matrix. METHODS AND RESULTS Liver cancer cells grown on collagen 1-coated plates showed upregulation of cholangiocytic marker expression but downregulation of hepatocytic marker expression. Three-dimensional sphere culture and Boyden chamber assay showed enhanced invasion and migration ability in collagen 1-conditioned liver cancer cells. Interaction with collagen 1 reduced liver cancer cell proliferation. RNA sequencing showed that in the liver cancer cells, collagen 1 upregulated cell cycle inhibitor expression and cell-matrix interaction, tumor migration, and angiogenesis pathways, but downregulated liver metabolic function pathways. Cholangiocytic differentiation and invasiveness induced by collagen 1 was mediated by the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, which was regulated by cell-matrix interaction-induced Src activation. Analysis of the Cancer Genome Atlas cohort showed that collagen 1 induced and suppressed genes were highly enriched in ICC and HCC, respectively. In HCC samples, collagen 1-regulated genes were strongly coexpressed and correlated with COL1A1 expression. CONCLUSIONS Liver cancer cell-matrix interaction induces cholangiocytic differentiation and switches liver cancer cells from a proliferative to an invasive phenotype through the Src/MAPK pathway, which may partly explain the differences in the behaviors of HCC and ICC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Revascularization for peripheral artery disease (PAD) is increasingly common in dialysis patients. Patients with PAD who have undergone revascularization are at high risk for subsequent complications. Malnutrition is an important modifiable risk factor for dialysis patients, yet little data exist on the prognostic impact of malnutrition on postprocedure long-term outcomes. METHODS A total of 395 consecutive dialysis patients undergoing endovascular revascularization for PAD between 2005 and 2019 were examined for the primary outcome of all-cause mortality. Secondary outcomes included major adverse limb events (MALEs), defined as acute limb ischemia, major amputation, and clinically driven revascularization, and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). Nutritional status was assessed by using the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score, a screening tool for malnutrition incorporating albumin, cholesterol, and total lymphocyte count. RESULTS According to the CONUT score, 40.8% of patients were moderately or severely malnourished. During a median follow-up of 2.2 years, 218 (55.2%) patients died; 211 (53.4%) patients had MALEs, and MACEs occurred in 135 (34.2%) patients. Compared with normal nutritional status, severe malnutrition was associated with a significantly increased risk for all-cause death (adjusted HR, 4.83; 95% CI, 2.56-9.12) and MALEs (adjusted HR, 2.42; 95% CI, 1.23-4.74) but not MACEs (adjusted HR, 1.81; 95% CI, 0.74-4.40). Similar results were observed when the CONUT score was analyzed as a continuous variable. CONCLUSIONS Malnutrition is common among dialysis patients with PAD requiring endovascular therapy and is strongly associated with increased mortality and MALEs. Clinical trials are needed to evaluate whether nutritional interventions improve outcomes for dialysis patients after peripheral revascularization.

Abstract
Personalized treatments based on the genetic profiles of tumors can simultaneously optimize efficacy and minimize toxicity, which is beneficial for improving patient outcomes. This study aimed to integrate gene alterations associated with predictive and prognostic outcomes in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and in-house next-generation sequencing (NGS) to detect KRAS, NRAS, and BRAF mutations. In the present study, 41 patients with mCRC were assessed between August 2017 and June 2019 at a single institution. The overall concordance between NGS and PCR results for detecting KRAS, NRAS, and BRAF mutations was considerably high (87.8–92.7%), with only 15 discrepant results between PCR and NGS. Our companion diagnostic test analyzes KRAS, NRAS, and BRAF as a panel of CRC molecular targets; therefore, it has the advantages of requiring fewer specimens and being more time and cost efficient than conventional testing for separate analyses, allowing for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes.

Abstract
Background Stroke leads to tremendous impacts on patients and the healthcare system. It is crucial to explore the potential management of rehabilitation. Acupuncture and traditional Chinese herbal medicine (TCHM) integrated with conventional rehabilitation benefit post-stroke functional recovery. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of all patients included in the Integrated Traditional Chinese-Western Medicine care program for stroke (ITCWM-stroke care program) in 2019 in Taipei Tzu Chi Hospital to investigate the effects of acupuncture and TCHM integrated with conventional rehabilitation on National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and Barthel Index (BI) scores before and after the program. Results A total of 255 stroke inpatients were retrieved and divided into acupuncture and acupuncture + TCHM group by hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke types, respectively. All the patients were recruited in the program at the early subacute phase after stroke onset. Of the hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke subjects, the NIHSS and BI total scores were significantly improved in the acupuncture and acupuncture + TCHM groups. The subgroup analysis results showed that in subjects with a baseline BI score ≤ 40, the acupuncture + TCHM group significantly improved BI total score better than the acupuncture group in both hemorrhagic (p < 0.05) and ischemic (p < 0.05) stroke subjects. Conclusion Acupuncture and TCHM integrated with conventional rehabilitation significantly improve stroke patients’ functional recovery at the early subacute phase. Acupuncture + TCHM contributes to better activities of daily living (ADL) improvements in stroke patients with a baseline BI score ≤ 40. We suggest integrating acupuncture and TCHM into the post-stroke rehabilitation strategy, especially for stroke patients with poor ADL function.

Abstract
We present the precision measurement of the daily proton fluxes in cosmic rays from May 20, 2011 to October 29, 2019 (a total of 2824 days or 114 Bartels rotations) in the rigidity interval from 1 to 100 GV based on 5.5×10^{9} protons collected with the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer aboard the International Space Station. The proton fluxes exhibit variations on multiple timescales. From 2014 to 2018, we observed recurrent flux variations with a period of 27 days. Shorter periods of 9 days and 13.5 days are observed in 2016. The strength of all three periodicities changes with time and rigidity. The rigidity dependence of the 27-day periodicity is different from the rigidity dependences of 9-day and 13.5-day periods. Unexpectedly, the strength of 9-day and 13.5-day periodicities increases with increasing rigidities up to ∼10 GV and ∼20 GV, respectively. Then the strength of the periodicities decreases with increasing rigidity up to 100 GV.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most malignant brain tumor in the world, only 25% of GBM patients were alive one year after diagnosis. Although Temozolamide combined with radiation therapy more effectively prolonged the survival rate than radiation alone, the overall survival rate is still dismal. Therefore, a new therapeutic strategy is urgently needed. CDK4/6 inhibitors are newly FDA-approved agents to treat HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced, and metastatic breast cancers, and preclinical results showed that CDK4/6 inhibitors significantly reduced cell proliferation and tumor growth. However, several studies have suggested that CDK4/6 inhibitor-induced non-genetic changes caused treatment failure, including autophagy activation. Therefore, this study aimed to combine an autophagy inhibitor, MPT0L145, with abemaciclib to improve therapeutic efficiency. The use of abemaciclib effectively inhibited cell proliferation via suppression of RB phosphorylation and induced autophagy activation in GBM cancer cells. MPT0L145 treatment alone not only blocked autophagy activation, but also induced generation of ROS and DNA damage in a concentration-dependent manner. Importantly, MPT0L145 had a comparable penetration ability to TMZ in our blood brain barrier permeability assay. Combined MPT0L145 with abemaciclib significantly reduced cell proliferation, suppressed RB phosphorylation, and increased ROS production. In conclusion, the data suggested that blocking autophagy by MPT0L145 synergistically sensitized GBM cancer cells to abemaciclib and represents a potential therapeutic strategy for treating GBM in the future.

Abstract
Acquisition of surface electromyography (sEMG) from a person with an amputated lower extremity (LE) during prosthesis-assisted walking remains a significant challenge due to the dynamic nature of the gait cycle. Current solutions to sEMG-based neural control of active LE prostheses involve a combination of customized electrodes, prosthetic sockets, and liners. These technologies are generally: (i) incompatible with a subject's existing prosthetic socket and liners; (ii) uncomfortable to use; and (iii) expensive. This paper presents a flexible dry electrode design for sEMG acquisition within LE prosthetic sockets which seeks to address these issues. Design criteria and corresponding design decisions are explained and a proposed flexible electrode prototype is presented. Performances of the proposed electrode and commercial Ag/AgCl electrodes are compared in seated subjects without amputations. Quantitative analyses suggest comparable signal qualities for the proposed novel electrode and commercial electrodes. The proposed electrode is demonstrated in a subject with a unilateral transtibial amputation wearing her own liner, socket, and the portable sEMG processing platform in a preliminary standing and level ground walking study. Qualitative analyses suggest the feasibility of real-time sEMG data collection from load-bearing, ambulatory subjects.

Abstract
The shock index (SI) is a useful tool for predicting the injury severity and mortality in patients with trauma. However, pediatric physiology differs from that of adults. In the pediatric trauma population, the shock status may be obscured within the normal range of vital signs. Pediatric age-adjusted SI (SIPA) is reported more accurately compared to SI. In our study, we conducted a 10 year retrospective cohort study of pediatric trauma population to evaluate the SI and SIPA in predicting mortality, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, and the need for surgery. This retrospective cohort study included 1265 pediatric trauma patients from January 2009 to June 2019 at the Taipei Tzu Chi Hospital, who had a history of hospitalization. The primary outcome of this investigation was in-hospital mortality, and the secondary outcomes were the length of hospital and ICU stay, operation times, and ICU admission times. The SIPA group can detect changes in vital signs early to reflect shock progression. In the elevated SIPA group, more severe traumatic injuries were identified, including high injury severity score (ISS), revised trauma score (RTS), and new injury severity score (NISS) scores than SI > 0.9. The odds ratio of elevated SIPA and SI (>0.9) to predict ISS ≥ 16 was 3.593 (95% Confidence interval [CI]: 2.175–5.935, p < 0.001) and 2.329 (95% CI: 1.454–3.730, p < 0.001). SI and SIPA are useful for identifying the compensatory phase of shock in prehospital and hospital settings, especially in corresponding normal to low-normal blood pressure. SIPA is effective in predicting the mortality and severity of traumatic injuries in the pediatric population. However, SI and SIPA were not significant predictors of ICU admission and the need for surgery analysis.

Abstract
For persons with lower extremity (LE) amputation, acquisition of surface electromyography (sEMG) from within the prosthetic socket remains a significant challenge due to the dynamic loads experienced during the gait cycle. However, these signals are critical for both understanding the clinical effects of LE amputation and determining the desired control trajectories of active LE prostheses. Current solutions for collecting within-socket sEMG are generally (i) incompatible with a subject's prescribed prosthetic socket and liners, (ii) uncomfortable, and (iii) expensive. This study presents an alternative within-socket sEMG acquisition paradigm using a novel flexible and low-profile electrode. First, the practical performance of this Sub-Liner Interface for Prosthetics (SLIP) electrode is compared to that of commercial Ag/AgCl electrodes within a cohort of subjects without amputation. Then, the corresponding SLIP electrode sEMG acquisition paradigm is implemented in a single subject with unilateral transtibial amputation performing unconstrained movements and walking on level ground. Finally, a quantitative questionnaire characterizes subjective comfort for SLIP electrode and commercial Ag/AgCl electrode instrumentation setups. Quantitative analyses suggest comparable signal qualities between SLIP and Ag/AgCl electrodes while qualitative analyses suggest the feasibility of using the SLIP electrode for real-time sEMG data collection from load-bearing, ambulatory subjects with LE amputation.

Abstract
We report the properties of sodium (Na) and aluminum (Al) cosmic rays in the rigidity range 2.15 GV to 3.0 TV based on 0.46 million sodium and 0.51 million aluminum nuclei collected by the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer experiment on the International Space Station. We found that Na and Al, together with nitrogen (N), belong to a distinct cosmic ray group. In this group, we observe that, similar to the N flux, both the Na flux and Al flux are well described by the sums of a primary cosmic ray component (proportional to the silicon flux) and a secondary cosmic ray component (proportional to the fluorine flux). The fraction of the primary component increases with rigidity for the N, Na, and Al fluxes and becomes dominant at the highest rigidities. The Na/Si and Al/Si abundance ratios at the source, 0.036±0.003 for Na/Si and 0.103±0.004 for Al/Si, are determined independent of cosmic ray propagation.

Abstract
Simple Summary The dysregulation of UPS exacerbates the tumor microenvironment and drives malignant transformation. As the largest family of E3 ligases, the SCFF-boxes promotes BRCA progression. FBXL8 was recently identified to be a novel SCF E3 ligase that potently promotes BRCA. Here, we profiled the transcriptome of BRCA patient tissues by global NGS RNA-Seq and TCGA database analyses. A signature of four SCFF-box E3 ligases (FBXL8, FBXO43, FBXO15, CCNF) was found to be pivotal for BRCA advancement. Knockdown of FBXL8 and FBXO43 reduced cancer cell viability and proliferation, suggesting their pro-tumorigenic roles. However, the overexpression of CCNF inhibited cancer cell progression, indicating its anti-tumorigenic role. FBXL8 and FZR1 pulled down CCNF, and double knockdown of FBXL8 and FZR1 caused CCNF accumulation. Additionally, CCNF partnered with a pro-tumorigenic factor, RRM2, and overexpression of CCNF reduced RRM2. Our findings suggest a potential for drugging CCNF in co-modulatory partnership with FBXL8 and FZR1, for anti-BRCA therapy. Abstract Breast cancer (BRCA) malignancy causes major fatalities amongst women worldwide. SCF (Skp1-cullin-F-box proteins) E3 ubiquitin ligases are the most well-known members of the ubiquitination–proteasome system (UPS), which promotes cancer initiation and progression. Recently, we demonstrated that FBXL8, a novel F-box protein (SCFF-boxes) of SCF E3 ligase, accelerates BRCA advancement and metastasis. Since SCFF-boxes is a key component of E3 ligases, we hypothesized that other SCFF-boxes besides FBXL8 probably collaborate in regulating breast carcinogenesis. In this study, we retrospectively profiled the transcriptome of BRCA tissues and found a notable upregulation of four SCFF-box E3 ligases (FBXL8, FBXO43, FBXO15, and CCNF) in the carcinoma tissues. Similar to FBXL8, the knockdown of FBXO43 reduced cancer cell viability and proliferation, suggesting its pro-tumorigenic role. The overexpression of CCNF inhibited cancer cell progression, indicating its anti-tumorigenic role. Unexpectedly, CCNF protein was markedly downregulated in BRCA tissues, although its mRNA level was high. We showed that both E3 ligases, FBXL8 and FZR1, pulled down CCNF. Double knockdown of FBXL8 and FZR1 caused CCNF accumulation. On the other hand, CCNF itself pulled down a tumorigenic factor, RRM2, and CCNF overexpression reduced RRM2. Altogether, we propose a signature network of E3 ligases that collaboratively modulates CCNF anti-cancer activity. There is potential to target BRCA through modulation of the partnership axes of (i) CCNF-FBXL8, (ii) CCNF-FZR1, and (iii) CCNF-RRM2, particularly, via CCNF overexpression and activation and FBXL8/FZR1 suppression.
