Abstract
The extract of the whole plant of Carpesium abrotanoides L. yielded four new sesquiterpenes including a novel skeleton (claroguaiane A, 1), two guaianolides (claroguaianes B-C, 2-3), and one eudesmanolide (claroeudesmane A, 4), together with three known sesquiterpenoids (5-7). The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis especially 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and HRESIMS data. Additionally, all the isolated compounds were preliminarily evaluated for the inhibitive activity of COVID-19 Mpro. As a result, compound 5 showed moderate activity with an IC50 value of 36.81 μM and compound 6 exhibited a potent inhibitory effect with an IC50 value of 16.58 µM, while other compounds were devoid of noticeable activity (IC50 > 50 μM).

Abstract
Cajaninstilbene acid (CSA), longistylin A (LLA), and longistylin C (LLC) are three characteristic stilbenes isolated from pigeon pea. The objective of this study was to evaluate the antibacterial activity of these stilbenes against Staphylococcus aureus and even methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and test the possibility of inhibiting biofilm formation. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) and minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs) of these stilbenes were evaluated. And the results showed that LLA was most effective against tested strains with MIC and MBC values of 1.56 μg/mL followed by LLC with MIC and MBC values of 3.12 μg/mL and 6.25 μg/mL as well as CSA with MIC and MBC values of 6.25 μg/mL and 6.25-12.5 μg/mL. Through growth curve and cytotoxicity analysis, the concentrations of these stilbenes were determined to be set at their respective 1/4 MIC in the follow-up research. In an anti-biofilm formation assay, these stilbenes were found to be effectively inhibited bacterial proliferation, biofilm formation, and key gene expressions related to the adhesion and virulence of MRSA. It is the first time that the anti-S. aureus and MRSA activities of the three stilbenes have been systematically reported. Conclusively, these findings provide insight into the anti-MRSA mechanism of stilbenes from pigeon pea, indicating these compounds may be used as antimicrobial agents or additives for food with health functions, and contribute to the development as well as application of pigeon pea in food science.

Abstract
Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) has been developed for over 40 years. The mechanisms of action of IVIG are complex and diverse, and there may be multiple mechanisms that combine to influence it. IVIG has been used in kidney transplantation for desensitization, treatment of antibody-mediated rejection, and ABO-incompatible transplantation. and treatment or prevention of some infectious diseases. Hyperimmune globulins such as cytomegalovirus hyperimmune globulin (CMV-IG) and hepatitis B hyperimmune globulin (HBIG) have also been used to protect against cytomegalovirus and hepatitis B virus, respectively. However, IVIG is also associated with some rare but serious adverse effects and some application risks, and clinicians need to weigh the pros and cons and develop individualized treatment programs to benefit more patients. This review will provide an overview of the multiple mechanisms of action, clinical applications, adverse effects, and prophylactic measures of IVIG, and hyperimmune globulin will also be introduced in it.

Abstract
Four new stilbenes (1-4) and one new flavonoid (5), named cajanines D-H, together with three known stilbenes (6-8) were isolated from the leaves of Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp. (pigeon pea). The structures of these compounds were elucidated unambiguously on the basis of IR, 1D, and 2D NMR, as well as HRESIMS data. Structurally, stilbenes 1-4 bore an isopentyl side chain, and further hydroxylation of compounds 1-3 generated a greater variety of structural forms. Compound 5 was a flavonoid owning an isopentyl side chain. Besides, antibacterial activity of the isolated compounds against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, and Escherichia coli was studied in vitro. Compounds 1-8 were endowed with profound antibacterial activity. Among them, the MIC values of compounds 4, 6, and 7 against S. aureus were 1.56, 0.78, and 0.78 µg/mL, respectively, among which 6 and 7 had better antibacterial activity than the positive control Vancomycin with the MIC values of 1.56 µg/mL. Additionally, the anti-SARS-CoV-2 main protease activity of all the isolated compounds was evaluated, and it was worth mentioning that the IC50 values of compounds 5-7 were 8.27, 4.65, and 8.30 µM, respectively, being comparable to the positive control Ebselen. Our findings may provide valuable guidance for the application of stilbenes as lead compounds in the future for the development of drugs with antibacterial or anti-COVID-19 activity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Lymph node metastasis is a cause of poor prognosis in breast cancer. Mass spectrometry-based proteomics aims to map the protein landscapes of biological samples and profile tumors more comprehensively. Here, proteomics was employed to identify differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) that were associated with lymph node metastasis. METHODS Tandem mass tag (TMT) quantitative proteomic approaches were applied for extensive profiling of conditioned medium of MDA-MB-231 and MCF7 cell lines and serums of patients who did or did not have lymph node metastasis, and DEPs were analyzed by bioinformatics. Furthermore, potential secreted or membrane proteins MUC5AC, ITGB4, CTGF, EphA2, S100A4, PRDX2, and PRDX6 were selected for verification in 114 tissue microarray samples of breast cancer using the immunohistochemical method. The relevant data was analyzed and processed by independent sample t test, chi-square test, or Fisher's exact test using SPSS 22.0 software. RESULTS In the conditioned medium of MDA-MB-231 cell lines, 154 proteins were upregulated, while 136 were downregulated compared to those of MCF7. In the serum of patients with breast cancer and lymph node metastasis, 17 proteins were upregulated, and 5 proteins were downregulated compared to those without lymph node metastasis. Furthermore, according to tissue verification, CTGF, EphA2, S100A4, and PRDX2 were associated with breast cancer lymph node metastasis. CONCLUSION Our study provides a new perspective for the understanding of the role of DEPs (especially CTGF, EphA2, S100A4, and PRDX2) in the development and metastasis of breast cancer. They could become potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidies (PGT-A) on pregnancy outcome and perinatal outcome of single live birth in patients with unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA). Methods: The clinical data of 351 cycles of the first transfer of a blastocyst through whole embryo freezing in the Reproductive Center of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from 2019 to 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether PGT-A was performed before the transfer, the patients were divided into two groups: the PGT-A group (160 cycles) and the control group (191 cycles) were treated with in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm microinjection (IVF/ICSI). To adjust for confounding factors, propensity score matching (PSM) was carried out in a 1∶1 ratio between the two groups of patients. After matching, 98 patients in the PGT-A group and 98 patients in the control group were compared for pregnancy outcome and perinatal outcome of singleton live births. Results: Before PSM, the female age in the PGT-A group was (33.6±4.0) years, lower than that in the control group (34.5±4.5) years (P=0.049). Male age in the PGT-A group was (33.6±4.1) years, lower than that in the control group (35.3±5.1) years (P<0.001). There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in infertility factors, female body mass index (BMI), years of infertility, number of spontaneous abortions, basal follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), endometrial thickness on the day of transfer and the percentage of high-quality blastocysts (all P values<0.05); After PSM, there was a statistically significant difference in fertilization methods and infertility factors between the two groups (P<0.05), while other differences were not statistically significant (all P values>0.05); There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in implant rate [63.3% (62 cycles) vs. 49.0% (48 cycles), P=0.044], clinical pregnancy rate [63.3% (62 cycles) vs. 49.0% (48 cycles), P=0.044], and live birth rate [42.9% (42 cycles) vs. 28.6% (28 cycles), P=0.037]. There was no statistically significant difference in perinatal outcomes between the PGT-A group and the control group in obtaining single birth live births (P>0.05). Conclusion: Compared with conventional IVF/ICSI assisted pregnancy, PGT-A assisted pregnancy significantly improves implantation rate, clinical pregnancy rate, and live birth rate in URSA patients. PGT-A improves the pregnancy outcomes in URSA patients but not perinatal outcomes in patients with singleton live births.

Abstract
Objective: To reveal the similarities and differences in myocardial metabolic characteristics between heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) mice using metabolomics. Methods: The experimental mice were divided into 4 groups, including control, HFpEF, sham and HFrEF groups (10 mice in each group). High fat diet and Nω-nitroarginine methyl ester hydrochloride (L-NAME) were applied to construct a"two-hit"HFpEF mouse model. Transverse aortic constriction (TAC) surgery was used to construct the HFrEF mouse model. The differential expression of metabolites in the myocardium of HFpEF and HFrEF mice was detected by untargeted metabolomics (UHPLC-QE-MS). Variable importance in projection>1 and P<0.05 were used as criteria to screen and classify the differentially expressed metabolites between the mice models. KEGG functional enrichment and pathway impact analysis demonstrated significantly altered metabolic pathways in both HFpEF and HFrEF mice. Results: One hundred and nine differentially expressed metabolites were detected in HFpEF mice, and 270 differentially expressed metabolites were detected in HFrEF mice. Compared with the control group, the most significantly changed metabolite in HFpEF mice was glycerophospholipids, while HFrEF mice presented with the largest proportion of carboxylic acids and their derivatives. KEGG enrichment and pathway impact analysis showed that the differentially expressed metabolites in HFpEF mice were mainly enriched in pathways such as biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids, ether lipid metabolism, amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism, arachidonic acid metabolism and arginine and proline metabolism. The differentially expressed metabolites in HFrEF mice were mainly enriched in arginine and proline metabolism, glycine, serine and threonine metabolism, pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis, glycerophospholipid metabolism, nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism and arachidonic acid metabolism, etc. Conclusions: HFpEF mice have a significantly different myocardial metabolite expression profile compared with HFrEF mice. In addition, biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids, arachidonic acid metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism and arginine and proline metabolism are significantly altered in both HFpEF and HFrEF mice, suggesting that these metabolic pathways may play an important role in disease progression in both types of heart failure.

Abstract
Objective: To determine the causal association between long-term Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) exposure and the risk of cardiovascular hospitalization. Methods: Based on a sub-cohort of a community-based prospective cohort study, a total of 36 271 participants were recruited from 35 communities randomly selected in Guangzhou in 2015. The annual average exposure of NO2, demographic characteristics, lifestyle factors, and information on the causes of hospitalization was collected. We applied marginal structural Cox models to investigate the effect of NO2 on cardiovascular hospitalization. Demographic and behavioral factors also stratified results. Results: The mean age of participants in the present study was (50.9±17.8) years, and the cardiovascular admission rate was 8.7%, with 203 822 person-years of follow-up. The annual mean NO2 concentration was 48.7 μg/m3 during 2015-2020. For each 10 μg/m3 increase in NO2 concentrations, the HRs (95%CIs) of total cardiovascular hospitalization, cardiovascular hospitalization, and cerebrovascular hospitalization were 1.33 (1.16-1.52), 1.36 (1.16-1.60) and 1.25 (1.00-1.55), respectively. Participants who were never married/married, with secondary education, high exercise frequency, or non-smokers/current smokers may be more susceptible than their counterparts. Conclusion: Long-term exposure to NO2 significantly increased hospitalization risk for cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Functional constipation (FC) in children affects their growth, development and quality of life. L-pipecolic acid (L-PA) was decreased in FC children based on gut microbiome and serum metabolomic. In this study, loperamide-induced constipation in mice was used to evaluate the effects of L-PA on constipated mice. METHOD 26 FC and 28 healthy children were recruited. Stool samples and serum samples were subjected to 16S rDNA sequencing and ultra-performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole time of flight (UPLC-Q/TOF-MS) approach, respectively. A loperamide-induced mouse constipation model was developed, and all mice were randomly divided into control (Con), loperamide (Lop) and L-PA (Lop + L-PA) treatment groups (6 mice per group). The mice in the Lop + L-PA group were given L-PA (250 mg/kg, once a day) and loperamide; the Lop group was given loperamide for 1 week, and the Con group was given saline. The fecal parameters and intestinal motility of mice in each group were detected. serum 5-HT levels and colon 5-HT expression were detected by ELISA and immunohistochemistry, respectively; qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of AQP3 and 5-HT4R mRNA in each group. RESULTS 45 differential metabolites and 18 significantly different microbiota were found in FC children. The α and β diversity of gut microbiota in FC children was significantly reduced. Importantly, serum L-PA was significantly reduced in FC children. The KEGG pathway enrichment were mainly enriched in fatty acid biosynthesis, lysine degradation, and choline metabolism. L-PA was negatively associated with Ochrobactrum, and N6, N6, N6-trimethyl-l-lysine was positively associated with Phascolarcrobacterium. In addition, L-PA improved the fecal water content, intestinal transit rate, and increased the serum 5-HT levels in constipated mice. Moreover, L-PA increased the expression of 5-HT4R, reduced AQP3, and regulated constipation-associated genes. CONCLUSIONS Gut microbiota and serum metabolites were significantly altered in children with FC. The abundance of Phascolarctobacterium and Ochrobactrum and serum L-PA content were decreased in FC children. L-PA was found to alleviate the fecal water content, increase intestinal transit rate and the first black stool defecation time. L-PA improved constipation by increasing 5-HT and 5-HT4R expression while down-regulating AQP3 expression.

Abstract
It is difficult to distinguish between H2O and D2O due to their very similar properties. Triphenylimidazole derivatives with carboxyl groups (TPI-COOH-2R) show intramolecular charge transfer that responds to polarities and pH of solvents. Here, a series of TPI-COOH-2R with very high photoluminescence quantum yields (73-98%) were synthesized to distinguish D2O from H2O by the method of wavelength-changeable fluorescence. In a mixed THF/water solution, the increase of H2O and D2O contents will separately induce different pendulum-type fluorescence variations and form plots of closed circles with the same starting and ending points from which a THF/water ratio that displays the most different emission wavelengths (up to 53 nm with an LOD of 0.064 vol %) can be determined to further distinguish D2O from H2O. This is proved to be originated from the various Lewis acidities between H2O and D2O. The results of theoretical calculations and experiments suggest that, for different substituent groups in TPI-COOH-2R, an appropriate electron-donating effect is beneficial to distinguish between H2O and D2O, while the electron-pulling effect is adverse. Moreover, because the potential hydrogen/deuterium exchange does not affect the as-responsive fluorescence, this method is reliable. And this work provides a new strategy for the design of fluorescent probes for D2O.

Abstract
Eurya chinensis has been recorded as a folk medicine traditionally used for treatment of a variety of symptoms. However, the phytochemical and pharmacological investigations of this plant are still scarce. A novel phenolic glycoside named Euryachincoside (ECS) was isolated by chromatographic separation from E. chinensis, and its chemical structure was identified by analysis of HRMS and NMR data. Its anti-hepatic fibrosis effects were evaluated in both HSC-T6 (rat hepatic stellate cells) and carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced mice with Silybin (SLB) as the positive control. In an in vitro study, ECS showed little cytotoxicity and inhibited transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β)-induced Collagen I (Col1) along with alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) expressions in HSC-T6. An in vivo study suggested ECS significantly ameliorated hepatic injury, secretions of inflammatory cytokines, and collagen depositions. Moreover, ECS markedly mediated Smad2/3, nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) signaling pathways both in vitro and vivo. These present findings confirmed that ECS is a novel phenolic glycoside from E. chinensis with promising curative effects on hepatic fibrosis, and its mechanisms may include decreasing extracellular matrix accumulation, reducing inflammation and attenuating free radicals via Smad2/3, NF-κB and Nrf2 signaling pathways, which may shed light on the exploration of more effective phenolic glycoside-based anti-fibrotic agents.

Abstract
BackgroundRenal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is an inevitable occurrence during kidney transplantation. Mitophagy, ferroptosis, and the associated immune microenvironment (IME) have been shown to play important roles in renal IRI. However, the role of mitophagy-associated IME genes in IRI remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to construct a prediction model of IRI prognosis based on mitophagy-associated IME genes.MethodThe specific biological characteristics of the mitophagy-associated IME gene signature were comprehensively analyzed using public databases such as GEO, Pathway Unification, and FerrDb. Correlations between the expression of prognostic genes and immune-related genes and IRI prognosis were determined by Cox regression, LASSO analysis, and Pearson’s correlation. Molecular validation was performed using human kidney 2 (HK2) cells and culture supernatant as well as the serum and kidney tissues of mice after renal IRI. Gene expression was measured by PCR, and inflammatory cell infiltration was examined by ELISA and mass cytometry. Renal tissue damage was characterized using renal tissue homogenate and tissue sections.ResultsThe expression of the mitophagy-associated IME gene signature was significantly correlated with IRI prognosis. Excessive mitophagy and extensive immune infiltration were the primary factors affecting IRI. In particular, FUNDC1, SQSTM1, UBB, UBC, KLF2, CDKN1A, and GDF15 were the key influencing factors. In addition, B cells, neutrophils, T cells, and M1 macrophages were the key immune cells present in the IME after IRI. A prediction model for IRI prognosis was constructed based on the key factors associated with the mitophagy IME. Validation experiments in cells and mice indicated that the prediction model was reliable and applicable.ConclusionWe clarified the relationship between the mitophagy-related IME and IRI. The IRI prognostic prediction model based on the mitophagy-associated IME gene signature provides novel insights on the prognosis and treatment of renal IRI.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the association between physical exercise and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in people infected with HBV. Methods: The information about the 3 813 participants infected with HBV, including the prevalence of NAFLD, prevalence of physical exercise and other covariates, were collected from the National Science and Technology Major Project of China during 2016-2020. The logistic regression model was used to evaluate the association between physical exercise and NAFLD in HBV infected patients, and subgroup analysis was performed to identify the effect modifiers. Results: A total of 2 259 HBV infected participants were included in the final analysis and 454 (20.10%) had NAFLD. After adjusting for covariates, we found that moderate physical exercise was a protective factor for NAFLD (OR=0.66, 95%CI: 0.46-0.94). Subgroup analysis suggested that the protective effect of moderate physical exercise on NAFLD might be stronger in women (OR=0.61, 95%CI: 0.36-1.01), those <45 years old (OR=0.24, 95%CI: 0.06-0.80), those who had low education level (OR=0.16, 95%CI: 0.04-0.49), those who had low annual income (OR=0.39, 95%CI: 0.16-0.89 for <30 000 yuan RMB; OR=0.64, 95%CI: 0.40-1.00 for 30 000-80 000 yuan RMB), those who had hypertension (OR=0.45, 95%CI: 0.21-0.88), those with BMI ≥24.0 kg/m2 (OR=0.66, 95%CI: 0.43-1.01), those who had more daily fruit or vegetable intake (OR=0.61, 95%CI: 0.38-0.97), those who had more daily meat intake (OR=0.49, 95%CI: 0.23-0.97), and those who had no smoking history (OR=0.66, 95%CI: 0.45-0.95) or passive smoking exposure (OR=0.61, 95%CI: 0.37-0.97). Conclusions: Among HBV infected patients, moderate physical exercise was negatively associated with the prevalence of NAFLD. Women, young people, those who had low education level, those who had low annual income, those with hypertension, those with high BMI, those who had more daily fruit or vegetable and meat intakes, and those who had no smoking history or passive smoking exposure might be more sensitive to the protective effect.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common disease in elderly males, and many kinds of minimally invasive procedures can be used for the treatment of BPH. However, various procedures have caused some controversies regarding clinical outcomes, so more studies are needed to validate these controversial topics. AIMS This study aimed to explore differences of clinical efficacy, surgical features, and complications between transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) and plasmakinetic enucleation of the prostate (PKEP) for BPH. METHODS A total of eligible 850 cases of BPH underwent TURP (the TURP group, 320 cases) or PKEP (the PKEP group, 530 cases) in the urology department of our hospital from March 2015 to 2018 were involved in this study. Then, the baseline data, surgical characteristics, IPSS, QoL, PVR, Qmax, IIEF-5, and documented complications were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The operative time, intraoperative irrigation volume, postoperative hemoglobin, decrease in hemoglobin, postoperative irrigation time and volume, catheterization time, and hospital stay of the PKEP group were significantly less than those of the TURP group (all P < 0.05). At 3 months, 1, 2, and 3 years after operation, no significant differences were observed in IPSS, QoL, PVR, but the results of Qmax and IIEF-5 in the PKEP group were significantly higher than those parameters in the TURP group (all P < 0.05). The incidences of massive blood loss, postoperative secondary bleeding, blood transfusion, capsular perforation, urinary tract irritation, bladder spasm, clot retention, urinary tract infection, transient incontinence, erectile dysfunction, and the incidences of II, III grade of Clavien-Dindo classification in the PKEP group were significantly lower than those of the TURP group (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The clinical efficacy of PKEP is compared favorably with TURP during midterm follow-up. Given the merits such as less blood loss and hospital stay, lower complications, PKEP should be given a priority for BPH.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the clinical effects of low- and intermediate-dose factor Ⅷ (F Ⅷ) prophylaxis in Chinese adult patients with severe hemophilia A. Methods: Thirty adult patients with severe hemophilia A who received low- (n=20) /intermediate-dose (n=10) F Ⅷ prophylaxis at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital affiliated with Nanjing University Medical College were included in the study. The annual bleeding rate (ABR), annual joint bleeding rate (AJBR), number of target joints, functional independence score of hemophilia (FISH), quality of life score, and health status score (SF-36) before and after preventive treatment were retrospectively analyzed and compared. Results: The median follow-up was 48 months. Compared with on-demand treatment, low- and intermediate-dose prophylaxis significantly reduced ABR, AJBR, and the number of target joints (P<0.05) ; the improvement in the intermediate-dose prophylaxis group was better than that in the low-dose prophylaxis group (P<0.05). Compared with on-demand treatment, the FISH score, quality of life score, and SF-36 score significantly improved in both groups (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05) . Conclusion: In Chinese adults with severe hemophilia A, low- and intermediate-dose prophylaxis can significantly reduce bleeding frequency, delay the progression of joint lesions, and improve the quality of life of patients as compared with on-demand treatment. The improvement in clinical bleeding was better with intermediate-dose prophylaxis than low-dose prophylaxis.

Abstract
To investigate nitrate and nitrite content in fresh vegetables, 264 samples were randomly collected in the farmers' markets in Shanghai, Southeast China. The results indicate that 25.0% of the fresh vegetables were critically or more contaminated by nitrate [>1440 mg/kg FW (Fresh weight)]. Generally, leafy vegetables were more highly enriched in nitrate than root-tuber and fruit vegetables. About 22.6% of the leafy vegetables had a nitrate content exceeding the limit for edible permission (>3000 mg/kg FW). Nitrite content in the fresh vegetables was all within the safe level (<1 mg/kg FW). It was estimated that the daily nitrate intake through eating vegetables in Shanghai exceeded the WHO/FAO allowable limit. The field experiment indicated that the hyper-accumulation of nitrate and nitrite in the vegetables was mainly attributed to the excessive application of chemical fertilizers. The maxima of nitrate and nitrite in the vegetables were attained one week after applying chemical fertilizer, and thus they cannot be picked for dietary use. Applying organic manure can effectively lower the risk of nitrate and nitrite contamination in vegetables. The old leaves and leaf petioles were more easily enriched in nitrate due to their weaker metabolic activity. Vegetables with high nitrate content had a high risk of nitrite toxicity during storage due to the biological conversion of nitrate into nitrite, which is easily triggered by suitable temperature and mechanical damage processing. Therefore, fresh vegetables should be stored by rapid cooling and in undamaged forms to prevent nitrite accumulation.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of pterygium in the rural population aged 40 years and above of 12 ethnic groups in 6 regions of Yunnan Province. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study. According to the method of multistage stratified sampling, samples of the rural population aged 40 years and above were collected from 12 ethnic groups (Han, Yi, Tibetan, Lisu, Bai, Naxi, Zhuang, Miao, Dai, Jingpo, Hani, and Lahu) in six areas (Diqing, Lijiang, Wenshan, Dehong, and Pu'er) of Yunnan Province from March 2019 to November 2019. Anterior segment examination was carried out in the target population with a hand-held slit-lamp, according to which pterygium was diagnosed, while the posterior segment of the eye was assessed by direct ophthalmoscopy. A field questionnaire survey was also conducted. A two-level model was used to study the effects of the location, nationality, sex, age, occupation, outdoor activities, smoking, and alcohol consumption on the prevalence of pterygium, with the ethnic group as the high level and the individual as the low level. Results: Among 9 617 subjects, the total prevalence rate of pterygium was 22.6%, which was adjusted to 19.6% according to the age and gender data of the Statistics Bureau of Yunnan Province. There was significant difference in prevalence of pterygium among six regions after adjusting for age and sex (χ2=146.50, P<0.001). The prevalence of pterygium was the highest in Wenshan (29.4%), followed by Chuxiong (24.4%), Diqing (17.5%), Pu'er (17.5%), Dehong (15.8%), and Lijiang (15.7%) (χ2=146.50, P<0.001). The results of the single factor analysis showed that there was statistically significant difference among different groups of age, gender, nationality, location, history of smoking, drinking, eating habits, sleeping time, continuous use of eye drops, temperature, humidity, altitude, longitude, latitude, and ultraviolet ray (P<0.05). However, the results of the multivariate analysis showed that the main risk factors of pterygium were female(OR=1.357,95%CI:1.173~1.568), advanced age(OR=1.540,95%CI:1.301~1.823), location(OR=1.713,95%CI:1.000~2.667), continuous use of eye drops(OR=1.177,95%CI:1.034~1.340), and more than 40 years of alcohol drinking(OR=1.525, 95%CI: 1.108~2.099), and the protective factor was more than 40 years of smoking(OR=0.723,95%CI:0.544~0.960). Conclusions: The prevalence of pterygium varies greatly among different regions in Yunnan Province. The main factors affecting the prevalence are sex, age, region, smoking history, and drinking history.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the morphological changes of gray matter in clefts lip and palate (CLP) children using voxel-based morphometric (VBM) and surface-based morphometric (SBM) methods. So as to provide a reference for the neural mechanism of cleft palate speech disorder (CPSD) in CLP population. Methods: A total of 29 CLP children with CPSD who were admitted to Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Plastic & Tramuma Surgery, Capital Medical University School of Stomatology from January 2017 to January 2022 were selected (CLP group), including 9 males and 20 females, aged (9.6±3.2) years (5-17 years old). During the same period, 33 healthy children (healthy control group) were recruited in Beijing Children's Hospital, including 9 males and 24 females, aged (9.6±2.4) years (5-16 years). Results: There were no significant differences in age and gender between the healthy control group and the CLP group (t=-0.07, P=0.944; χ2=0.11, P=0.745). Compared with the healthy control group, the left inferior temporal gyrus, right inferior parietal angular gyrus, and left upper cerebellar gray matter volume in the CLP group were significantly decreased (P<0.05), and the volume of the right medial superior frontal gyrus was significantly increased (P<0.05). The left inferior frontal gyrus insula and the right insula cortical thickness of the subjects in the CLP group were significantly thinner [family-wise error rate (FWER) correction, P=0.035]. The right hemisphere cingulate gyrus isthmus sulcus index increased in the CLP group (FWER correction, P=0.040). Conclusions: CLP children with speech disorder have multiple language-related brain regions with reduced gray matter (GM) volume, decreased cortical thickness, and increased gyrificaition index. The abnormal changes in GM morphology in these brain regions may be related to the characteristics of cleft palate speech disorder in the CLP population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There should be a heightened index of suspicion for Parvovirus B19 (PVB19)-related anemia in organ transplant recipients. Thus far, there is no consensus or recommendation for clinical routine monitoring methods of PVB19 recipients to allow tailoring of immunosuppression. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study to evaluate the utility of the function (represented by the abilities to secrete IFN-γ) and numbers of lymphocyte subsets in monitoring PVB19 infections in renal recipients posttransplant. The enrolled 109 patients were split into 2 groups according to whether the recipients had an occurrence of PVB19 infection: 37 (33.94%) recipients developed PVB19 infection and 72 (66.06%) immune-stable recipients. RESULTS The PVB19 infected group had significantly lower absolute counts and functions of different lymphocyte subsets compared with immune-stable recipients. We showed that the frequencies of IFN-γ + CD4 + T cells, IFN-γ + CD8 + T cells, and IFN-γ + NK cells increased markedly after treatment when compared to the occurrence in patients with timepoint before therapy, especially the percentages of IFN-γ + CD4 + T cells were significantly higher. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed that the optimal infection indicator was IFN-γ + NK cells frequency, with an auROC curve of 0.925. Concomitantly, Cox regression analysis indicated that the post-therapy increasing level of IFN-γ secreting function was significantly predictive of recurrent infections (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS We recommend prospective risk stratification for the high-risk population at risk of early-onset PVB19 infection and its recurrence involves screening strategies of immune-based surveillance with the sensitive IFN-γ + secreting monitoring for antiviral prophylaxis and preemptive therapy goal. Clinical Trial Notation: clinical trial registration number: chiCTR-ROC-17010756.

Abstract
Objective To prepare a biologically active amniotic membrane powder and explore its preservation conditions, and to evaluate the efficacy of the amniotic membrane (AM)-fibrin sealant (FS) cement made from the amniotic powder on the rabbit severe ocular surface alkali burn model. Methods Experimental research. Fresh AM was air-dried, cooled with liquid nitrogen, ground into amniotic powder and sterilized by radiation. The expression of transformed growth factor, nerve growth factor receptor (NGFR), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) after preparation and 10, 20 and 30 days after storage at room temperature, 4 ℃ and -20 ℃ was tested and compared with that in the fresh AM. The AM-FS cement containing different concentrations of amniotic powder and no amniotic powder was diluted. Rabbit corneal epithelial cells were cultured for 72 hours. The effects of different concentrations of amniotic powder on epithelial cell growth were observed by light microscopy, and the amniotic powder concentration with the largest absorbance value at 450 nm was selected for subsequent animal experiments. Thirty-two right eyes of 32 rabbits as the severe ocular surface alkali burn model were divided using the random counting method into the AM-FS cement group, fresh AM transplantation group, FS group and antibiotic control group (8 rabbits each group) and given different interventions. After weekly observation of corneal repair, hematoxylin and eosin staining, immunohistochemical staining of monocyte chemotaxis protein 1 (MCP-1)and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were performed and detected by light microscopy at 28 days. The logFC values of the growth factor or receptor expression difference ratio were corrected by BH; the data were analyzed by t-test and analysis of variance. Results: The expression of TGF in the amniotic membrane powder compared with the fresh amniotic membrane group (logFC=-0.11), and the expression of NGFR (HGF, EGF, bFGF) was higher than that of the fresh amniotic membrane group (logFC=-2.07, 0.72, 0.46, 2.62; P<0.05); the expression of HGF, bFGF and EGF in amniotic membrane powder stored for 10 days and 20 days were no lower than fresh amniotic membrane; at 30 days, the expression of growth factors or receptors except HGF and bFGF were decreased, and HGF, bFGF and EGF were no less than 4 ℃ and -20 ℃.The maximum A value was obtained for 0.25 mg/ml of the amniotic membrane powder after 72 hours of the CEC culture 0.98±0.05. The corneal recovery was better in the AM-FS and fresh amniotic membrane transplant groups, with corneal turbidity scores of 3.75±0.46 and 3.50±0.46, respectively, on 28 days, lower than antibiotics (4.29±0.45) (t=2.480, 3.629; P=0.019, 0.001). The corneal neovascular area in the antibiotic control group was compared with the other three groups (t=4.040, 4.339, 2.820; all P<0.001); the corneal neovascular area in the AM-FS group was (9.88±0.20) and (18.96±0.18) mm2 at 7 and 28 days. The corneal neovascularization area at 7 and 28 days in the fresh AM group [(9.54±0.22) and (18.08±0.96) mm2] was smaller than the AM-FS group (t=3.085, 3.017, P=0.005, 0.005). Despite the tiny statistical difference (0.34, 0.88), there was no clinical difference. Hematoxylin and eosin staining showed corneal structures were intact in the AM-FS and fresh AM groups, the epithelial arrangement became normal, and the corneal healing was superior to the FS and antibiotic control groups. Immunohistochemistry showed that the positive expression of VEGF in the fresh AM group was weaker than that in the remaining three groups. MCP-1 was expressed to a similar extent in the AM-FS and fresh AM groups. Conclusions: The active cytokine had high expression and stable properties at room temperature. The AM-FS cement containing 0.25 mg/ml amniotic powder can promote the repair of corneal epithelium, reduce inflammatory reaction and corneal neovascularization after alkali burning in rabbit eyes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study investigated the composition of pathogenic microorganisms, clinical features, and therapeutic strategies of infective artery rupture of renal allografts in recipients receiving deceased donor (DD) kidneys. METHODS We retrospectively studied the clinical data of the DD kidney transplant recipients with donor-associated infection at Tongji Hospital, Wuhan, China from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2018, related recipients and corresponding donors. We collected the entire results of pathogenic microorganisms cultured from these related ruptured kidneys and then analyzed their distribution and differences. RESULTS A total of 1440 kidney transplants from DD were performed in our center. The total incidence of infective artery rupture in kidney transplants was about 0.76% (11/1440), and the annual incidence ranged from 0.25% to 1.03%. The microbial culture results revealed that 11 recipients suffered from infective artery rupture and 3 recipients who accepted the kidney from same donor had the donor-associated pathogens, including 9 fungal strains (28.1%) and 23 bacterial strains (71.9%). There were 4 recipients infected with multi-drug-resistant Staphylococcus and Klebsiella pneumoniae from the above 11 recipients, of which, 10 recipients underwent graft loss, and one died of septic shock. The microbial cultures of the remaining 3 recipients who received appropriate anti-infective regimens turned negative eventually, and the patients were discharged successfully without significant complications. CONCLUSION Renal recipients with infections derived from DDs were at high risk of artery rupture, graft loss, or even death. Appropriate anti-infective treatment is essential to reduce the incidence of artery rupture and mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence of parasitic infections in freshwater fish and marine fish from markets in Zhenjiang City, so as to provide the evidene for formulating targeted control measures. METHODS Freshwater fish and marine fish were collected from farmers' markets and supermarkets in Zhenjiang City using a random sampling method. The metacercaria and larvae of parasites were detected using microscopy and the direct dissection method. The prevalence of parasitic infections was analyzed in freshwater fish and marine fish. RESULTS The overall prevalence of parasite infections was 11.21% (208/1 856) in the 1 856 fish (34 species) detected from 2017 to 2020, and the prevalence was 9.81% (117/1 193) in freshwater fish and 13.73% (91/663) in marine fish. Among the 1 193 freshwater fish (23 species), high prevalence of parasitic infections was detected in Gambusia affinis (43.33%), coarse fish (32.93%) and Hemiculter leucisclus (20.20%), and there was no significant difference in the prevalence of parasitic infections among different species of freshwater fish (χ2 = 105.66, P < 0.05). Clonorchis sinensis, Metorchis orientalis and other parasite species were detected in freshwater fish, with detection rates of 0.59% (7/1 193), 1.93% (23/1 193) and 7.29% (87/1 193), respectively, and there was a significant difference in the detection of C. sinensis and M. orientalis in freshwater fish (χ2 = 8.64, P < 0.05). The prevalence and intensity of larval Anisakis infections were 13.73% (91/663) in marine fish and 3.43 parasites per fish. High prevalence of Anisakis infections was seen in little yellow croaker fish (30.28%) and hairtail (27.50%), and there was a significant difference in the prevalence of parasitic infections in different species of marine fish (χ2 = 12.93, P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Parasitic infections are prevalent in freshwater fish and marine fish from markets of Zhenjiang City, and there is a risk of parasitic infections following consumption of raw or under-cooked freshwater fish and marine fish.

Abstract
Steroid-refractory (SR) acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) is one of the leading causes of early mortality after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). We investigated the efficacy, safety, prognostic factors, and optimal therapeutic protocol for SR-aGVHD patients treated with basiliximab in a real-world setting. Nine hundred and forty SR-aGVHD patients were recruited from 36 hospitals in China, and 3683 doses of basiliximab were administered. Basiliximab was used as monotherapy (n = 642) or in combination with other second-line treatments (n = 298). The cumulative incidence of overall response rate (ORR) at day 28 after basiliximab treatment was 79.4% (95% confidence interval [CI] 76.5%-82.3%). The probabilities of nonrelapse mortality and overall survival at 3 years after basiliximab treatment were 26.8% (95% CI 24.0%-29.6%) and 64.3% (95% CI 61.2%-67.4%), respectively. A 1:1 propensity score matching was performed to compare the efficacy and safety between the monotherapy and combined therapy groups. Combined therapy did not increase the ORR; conversely, it increased the infection rates compared with monotherapy. The multivariate analysis showed that combined therapy, grade III-IV aGVHD, and high-risk refined Minnesota aGVHD risk score before basiliximab treatment were independently associated with the therapeutic response. Hence, we created a prognostic scoring system that could predict the risk of having a decreased likelihood of response after basiliximab treatment. Machine learning was used to develop a protocol that maximized the efficacy of basiliximab while maintaining acceptable levels of infection risk. Thus, real-world data suggest that basiliximab is safe and effective for treating SR-aGVHD.

Abstract
Arginine methylations can regulate important biological processes and affect many cellular activities, and the enzymes that catalyze the methylations are protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs). The biological consequences of arginine methylations depend on the methylation states of arginine that are determined by the PRMT's product specificity. Nevertheless, it is still unclear how different PRMTs may generate different methylation states for the target proteins. PRMT7 is the only known member of type III PRMT that produces monomethyl arginine (MMA) product. Interestingly, its E181D and E181D/Q329A mutants can catalyze, respectively, the formation of asymmetrically dimethylated arginine (ADMA) and symmetrically dimethylated arginine (SDMA). The reasons as to why the mutants have the abilities to add the second methyl group and E181D (E181D/Q329A) has the unique product specificity in generating ADMA (SDMA) have not been understood. Here, quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) molecular dynamics (MD) and potential of mean force (PMF) free-energy simulations are performed for the E181D and E181D/Q329A mutants to understand the origin for their ability to generate, respectively, ADMA and SDMA. The simulations show that the free-energy barrier for adding the second methyl group to MMA in E181D (E181D/Q329A) to produce ADMA (SDMA) is considerably lower than the corresponding barriers in wild type and E181D/Q329A (wild type and E181D), consistent with experimental observations. Some important factors that contribute to the change of the activity and product specificity due to the E181D and E181D/Q329A mutations are identified based on the data from the simulations and analysis. It is shown that the transferable methyl group (from SAM) and Nη2 (the nitrogen atom that is methylated in the substrate MMA) can only form good near-attack conformations in the E181D reaction state for the methyl transfer (not in wild type and E181D/Q329A), while the transferable methyl group and Nη1 (the nitrogen atom that is not methylated in the substrate MMA) can only form good near-attack conformations in E181D/Q329A (not in wild type and E181D). The results suggest that the steric repulsions in the reaction state between the methyl group on MMA and active-site residues (e.g., Q329) and the release of such repulsions (e.g., from the Q329A mutation) may play an important role in generating specific near-attack conformations for the methyl transfer and controlling the product specificity for the mutants. The general principle identified in this work for PRMT7 is expected to be useful for understanding the activity and product specificity of other PRMTs as well.

Abstract
Clinical staging, Gleason score, and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) have been accepted as factors for evaluating the prognosis of prostate cancer (PCa). With the in-depth study of iron metabolism and the development of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging technology, we used q-Dixon magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to measure the iron content of the PCa patients' lesions, and used enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to measure the iron metabolism indicators in the patients' serum samples, combined with the patients' postoperative clinical data for analysis. We found that the serum indexes were correlated with the T2 star values, International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) grade, and pathological classification in PCa patients (all P < 0.001) but not in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients (all P > 0.05). The utilization of q-Dixon-based MRI and serum indexes allows the noninvasive measurement of iron content in prostate lesions and the assessment of differential iron metabolism between PCa and BPH, which may be helpful for evaluating the prognosis of PCa.

Abstract
Evaluate the effect of the fresh air purification system on the improvement of indoor PM2.5 levels in a primary school classroom in Jinan City, Shandong Province. Our purpose is to explore the optimal operating time of the fresh air system and the main factors that affect the fresh air purification system to improve indoor air quality. From December 9, 2019 to December 10, 2019, two classrooms of the same area on the third floor of a primary school building in Jinan City, Shandong Province were selected as monitoring points. During the operation of the fresh air purification system, the PM2.5 concentration in the classroom is reduced by an average of 48.1%-61.5% compared to the outdoor PM2.5 concentration. After running for about 2 hours, the indoor PM2.5 concentration decreased to a relatively stable concentration level. The operating time of the fresh air purification system, student activities between classes, indoor temperature, indoor relative humidity, and outdoor PM2.5 concentration are important factors that affect the indoor particulate removal rate. In the case of a certain amount of fresh air and indoor area, closing doors and windows and appropriately extending the operation time of the fresh air purification system can improve the air quality in the classroom to a certain extent and protect the health of students.

Abstract
Objective: To systematically evaluate the clinical effect of anodized implants and sandblasted, large-grit, acid-etched (SLA) implants in the recent 10 years, so as to provide a reference for the selection and evaluation of implants. Methods: The data from Pubmed, Cochrane Library, Embase, CNKI, and Wanfang Data database from January 2010 to April 2020 were searched, to find clinical studies on anodized and SLA implants. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, literature was strictly screened, and data was extracted. Included studies were evaluated by using the methodological index for non-randomized studies (MINORS) and were analyzed by Stata14.0. The outcome of interest was cumulative survival rate (CSR) and marginal bone loss (MBL). Heterogeneity and publication bias among included literature was evaluated comprehensively. Results: A total of 22 articles, including 6 276 anodized implants, were collected for the analysis of anodized implants. Meta-analysis of proportions showed that anodized implants CSR were 98% (95%CI: 97%-98%, P<0.05) in total, at 5 years were 98% (95%CI: 98%-99%, P<0.05), and at 10 years were 97% (95%CI: 96%-98%, P<0.05). MBL change was 1.02 mm (95%CI: 0.69-1.34, P<0.05) in total. A total of 17 articles, including 4 567 SLA implants, were collected for the analysis of SLA implants. Meta-analysis of proportions showed that SLA implants CSR were 99% (95%CI: 98%-100%, P<0.05) in total, 99% at 5 years (95%CI: 98%-100%, P<0.05), and 99% at 10 years (95%CI: 97%-100%, P<0.05). MBL change was 0.69 mm (95%CI: 0.44-0.95, P<0.05) in total. The results of the above two studies were tested for bias (P>0.05), indicating no significant publication bias. Conclusions: Meta-analysis suggested that SLA implants have higher CSR and lower MBL than anodized implants.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the clinical characteristics, intervention and treatment of tympanic osteoma at different locations. Methods: The medical history, audiological and imaging examination, operation and follow-up results of two patients with tympanic osteoma at different sites were reviewed and summarized. Furthermore, the clinical characteristics and interventions of 36 patients reported in literatures with tympanic osteomas were also summarized and analyzed. Results: Osteoma of the two patients collected in this study located at promontory and incus respectively;both of them presented with intact tympanum and conductive deafness, without obvious etiology or predisposing factor. Both of them underwent surgeries and the hearing improved significantly. For patient one, the ossicular chain was intact and restored to activity after removed the osteoma. For patient two, an artificial ossicle was implanted after removed the osteoma and incus. In the 36 patients reported in literatures, the average age was 26.5 years, and 39.47% of them located at promontory; in addition, the main symptoms of them were progressive hearing loss, tinnitus and ear stuffy. Conclusions: Patients with tympanic osteoma are characterized by conduction deafness with intact tympanic membrane, and the most common lesion is promontory. Hearing can be restored by excision of the osteoma and maintenance or reconstruction of the ossicle chain.

Abstract
Background and objective: Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play an essential role in tumor progression and metastasis. However, the role of TAMs in neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is unclear and need to be identified. The main subject of this study was to investigate whether TAMs are related to the chemotherapeutic response with triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed pretreatment tissue from patients who received NAC and followed by a mastectomy or breast-conservation for stage II-III TNBC in this study. The association between TAMs and the pathological complete response (pCR) rate of TNBC to NAC was analyzed. In addition, the correlation of the TAMs with recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with TNBC was also evaluated. Results: Of the 91 patients, 31 (34.1%) patients experienced pathological complete response (pCR) after completion of NAC. Regarding the chemotheraptic response, patients with low infiltration of CD163+ macrophages achieved a significantly higher rate of pCR. Importantly, Kaplan-Meier survival shown that patients with high infiltration of CD163+ macrophages and non-pCR had poor OS and RFS. Conclusions: our data showed that TAMs may predict chemotherapeutic response and can be used as a promising prognostic candidate for poor survival in TNBC patients treated with NAC.

Abstract
Dysregulation of the adipo-osteogenic differentiation balance of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which are common progenitor cells of adipocytes and osteoblasts, has been associated with many pathophysiologic diseases, such as obesity, osteopenia, and several neurodegenerative disorders. Growing evidence suggests that lipid metabolism is crucial for maintaining stem cell homeostasis and cell differentiation, however, the detailed underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that CYP46A1 genes are key determinants of MSC increasing lipid droplet formation. Brain cholesterol is synthesized in situ and cannot cross the blood-brain barrier: to be exported from the central nervous system into the blood circuit, excess cholesterol must be converted to 24S-hydroxycholesterol by the cholesterol 24-hydroxylase encoded by the CYP46A1 gene. To address this issue, we used an adenoassociated virus (AAV) gene transfer strategy to increase CYP46A1 expression in order to investigate the consequences on the human mesenchymal stem cell (hU-MSCs). CYP46A1 expression was assessed with Western blotting and quantitative reverse transcription PCR. We found that CYP46A1 expression was increased during adipogenesis, and treatment with exogenous CYP46A1 increased adipogenesis. Thus, we hypothesize that CYP46A1 overexpression in hU-MSCs would significantly enhance cholesterol turnover in the brain of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). CYP46A1 can potentially serve as a specific target to modify the therapeutic and biological effects of hU-MSCs on HIE patients.

Abstract
The influence of hyperlipidemia on titanium implant osseointegration and the underlying mechanisms is not well understood. This study investigates the changes in osseointegration and explores the potential mechanisms in hyperlipidemia conditions. In vivo, specialized titanium implants were implanted in the femurs of diet-induced or genetic hyperlipidemia mice. In vitro, primary murine osteoblasts were cultured on the titanium surface in high-fat medium. Results showed that hyperlipidemia led to poor osseointegration in both types of mice in vivo, and high-fat medium impaired the osteogenic differentiation of primary osteoblasts on the titanium surface in vitro. In addition, high-fat medium caused significant overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inhibition of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in osteoblasts. Both N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC, an ROS antagonist) and Wnt3a (an activator of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway) attenuated the poor osteogenic ability of osteoblasts. In addition, NAC reactivated the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in osteoblasts under high-fat stimulation. These results demonstrate that hyperlipidemia impairs osseointegration via the ROS/Wnt/β-catenin pathway and provide support for the ROS or Wnt/β-catenin pathway as a promising therapeutic target for the development of novel drugs or implant materials to improve the osseointegration of implants in hyperlipidemic patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE After 131I treatment in patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC), we sometimes find a star-shaped intense uptake of 131I on therapeutic whole body scans (Rx-WBS), called star artifacts. Therefore, we analyzed the relevant clinical factors and prognostic value of star artifacts in DTC patients. METHODS 809 DTC patients who received 131I treatment were retrospectively evaluated and divided into 2 groups of patients with and without star artifacts. We evaluated the therapeutic response which was divided into excellent response (ER), biochemical incomplete response (BIR), indeterminate response (IR), and structural incomplete response (SIR). Clinical factors for the presence of star artifacts were analyzed. We also compared the rate of ER, BIR, IR, SIR and recurrence rate between group 1 and group 2. RESULTS The major clinical factors included stimulated thyroglobulin (sTg)>1.8ng/ml, 24h radioiodine uptake (RAIU)>2.2%, and positive 99mTcO4- thyroid imaging for the presence of star artifacts. In patients with sTg levels>10ng/ml, patients in group 1 had a higher rate of ablation success and ER than patients in group 2 (80.2% vs 65.6%, P=0.038, 31.6% vs 13.1%, P=0.008, respectively) and had a similar rate of BIR, IR, SIR. Recurrence rate was similar between group 1 and group 2 (5.2% vs 3.1%, P=0.13). CONCLUSION More remnant thyroid tissue is one of the factors associated with the presence of star artifacts on Rx-WBS. Patients with star artifacts exhibit a better therapeutic response (ER) when sTg levels are >10ng/ml. However, star artifacts have no effect on the recurrence rate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the endemic situation of schistosomiasis in national surveillance sites of Zhenjiang City from 2015 to 2019, so as to provide the scientific basis for the consolidation of schistosomiasis control achievements and timely treatment of risk factors. METHODS A total of 7 national schistosomiasis surveillance sites were assigned in Zhenjiang City from 2015 to 2019. According to the National Scheme for Schistosomiasis Surveillance (2014 version), Schistosoma japonicum infections were monitored in local residents, floating populations and livestock, and snail habitats were surveyed in Zhenjiang City from 2015 to 2019. The results of schistosomaisis surveillance in Zhenjiang City from 2015 to 2019 were analyzed. RESULTS There were 15 848 and 7 779 person-times of local residents and floating populations receiving serological screening of schistosomiasis in 7 national surveillance sites of Zhenjiang City from 2015 to 2019, and the seroprevalence rates were 0.95% to 1.75% and 0.14% to 0.91% among local residents and floating populations, respectively; however, no egg-positives were identified. A total of 1 885 herd-times of livestock were detected, and no egg-positives were found. During the 5-year period, snail survey was conducted in snail habitats and suspected snail habitats covering 3 333.79 hm2, and there were 108.71 hm2 snail habitats identified, including 50.97 hm2 re-emerging snail habitats. The density of living snails was 0.007 to 0.125 snails/0.1 m2 from 2015 to 2019, which showed a trend for a rise year by year (χ2 = 2 732.626, P < 0.01); however, no S. japonicum infections were detected in snails. CONCLUSIONS The endemic situation of schistosomiasis has been maintained at a low level in Zhenjiang City, and schistosomiasis control achievements are consolidated. However, snails are widely distributed in the city, and there are still risk factors associated with schistosomiasis transmission. Further integrated interventions require to be reinforced to timely manage the risk of transmission of schistosomiasis and promote the progress towards elimination of schistosomiasis.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the changes and diagnostic value of serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) in Cushing's syndrome (CS) with different etiologies. Methods: The study retrospectively recruited patients diagnosed as CS in Drum Tower Hospital affiliated to Nanjing University Medical School between January 2012 and June 2019, including 36 patients (8 males, 28 females, with an average age of 44 years) with Cushing disease (CD) and 64 patients (6 males, 58 females, with an average age of 39 years) with adrenal CS (ACS). Meanwhile, 97 patients diagnosed as nonfunctional adrenal adenoma (NFA) were also included as controls. Clinical characteristics, laboratory data, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), serum DHEAS level and sex-and age-adjusted DHEAS ratio of the three groups were collected. The sensitivity and specificity of DHEAS and its ratio in differential etiology diagnosis of CS were compared using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Results: Compared to NFA group, ACS patients had lower DHEAS levels [0.39 (0.39, 0.63) μmol/L vs 2.96 (1.92, 4.60) μmol/L, P<0.01] and lower DHEAS ratio [0.58 (0.27, 0.98) vs 3.95 (3.08, 6.83), P<0.01]. DHEAS [6.49 (4.32, 11.63) μmol/L] and DHEAS ratio [9.17 (4.49, 15.41)] in CD patients were significantly higher compared to those in NFA and ACS patients (all P<0.01). There were 53 ACS patients (82.8%) with suppressed ACTH level (<2.2 pmol/L) and 11 patients (17.2%) with normal/high ACTH level (≥2.2 pmol/L). The level of 24 hour urine free cortisol in normal/high ACTH level group was lower than the suppressed ACTH group [(1 299±511) nmol/24 h vs (1 972±876) nmol/24 h, P=0.04]. No significant differences were found in the DHEAS and DHEAS ratio between the two groups. ROC analysis showed that the area under the curve of serum DHEAS and DHEAS ratio in diagnosing ACS from CD was 0.997 and 0.990, respectively. The optimal cut-off values for DHEAS and its ratio were 2.06 μmol/L and 2.10, respectively. The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of DHEAS were 97.5% and 100%, and those of DHEAS ratio were 95.0% and 100%, respectively. Conclusion: There are significant differences in serum DHEAS level and DHEAS ratio between ACS and CD patients, which might be used as indicators for the identification of the two main CS etiologies, especially in the identification of ACS patients without plasma ACTH suppression from CD patients.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the clinical characteristics and metabolic features of subclinical Cushing's syndrome (SCS), and determine the effects of surgical or conservative approaches on the hormone levels and metabolic comorbidities in patients with SCS, thereby providing the evidence for decision-making in SCS management. Methods: A total of 56 consecutive SCS patients were selected in Drum Tower Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing University Medical School between 2010 and 2018, with 41 patients undergoing surgical treatment and 15 patients receiving conservative therapy. Meanwhile, 56 and 68 cases of sex-and age-matched patients diagnosed as nonfunctional adrenal adenoma (NFA) and adrenal Cushing's syndrome (CS) were included respectively. Clinical characteristics of patients in different groups were compared. Hormone levels and metabolic comorbidities were also observed during follow-up. Results: There were 56 SCS patients, including 15 males and 41 females, with an age of (52.0±12.6) years. The circadian rhythms of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and cortisol disappeared in CS and SCS groups. Compared to NFA group, patients with SCS were characterized by suppressed plasma ACTH level [2.40 (1.11, 4.33) pmol/L vs 4.23 (2.74, 6.26) pmol/L], elevated midnight cortisol level [(240±121) nmol/L vs (59±8) nmol/L] and increased cortisol level after 1 mg overnight dexamethasone suppression test [(241±130) nmol/L vs (34±12) nmol/L] (all P<0.01). The derangement of ACTH-cortisol axis was more obvious in CS patients compared to SCS patients. The prevalence of hypertension, glucose intolerance, dyslipidemia and osteopenia/osteoporosis were higher in SCS patients compared to NFA patients (75.0% vs 41.1%, 33.9% vs 12.5%, 62.5% vs 28.6%, 35.7% vs 8.9%, all P<0.05). The 24-hour urine free cortisol correlated positively with systolic blood pressure, glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and fasting blood glucose in SCS patients (r=0.335, 0.562 and 0.463, respectively, all P<0.05). In the surgical group, body weight, body mass index (BMI) and blood pressure decreased significantly after surgery (all P<0.05). Glucose intolerance/diabetes mellitus improved in 6 of 9 patients, BMI of 4 of 11 overweight/obesity patients normalized, and hypertension in 54.5% of patients (12/22) showed improvement after surgery. However, no alterations of hormone levels and metabolic parameters were observed in conservatively-managed patients. Conclusions: Patients with SCS are characterized by mild autonomous cortisol secretion and increased risk of metabolic comorbidities. Compared with conservative management, hormone abnormalities were corrected and metabolic abnormalities were improved in some SCS patients after surgery.

Abstract
Introduction Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT), which is standard treatment for locally advanced breast cancer, improves the resectability of patients with early breast cancer and reduces the extent of breast and axillary surgery. Caveolin-1 (CAV1) is implicated in human cancers, although its utility for cancer prognosis is unknown. Here, we investigated the expression of CAV1 in breast cancer tissues to evaluate its prognostic significance on patients with breast cancer administered NACT. Methods CAV1 expression in 80 breast cancer tissue samples was evaluated using immunohistochemistry (IHC). The association between CAV1 levels and clinical factors was analyzed using the chi-square test and that between CAV1 and prognosis was evaluated using multivariate Cox regression and Kaplan–Meier analyses. Results High levels of CAV1 were significantly associated with survival, and patients with overexpression of CAV1 had a poor prognosis. Adjusted multivariate Cox regression analyses revealed that a high level of CAV1 expression was an independent, significant prognostic factor for patients with breast cancer treated with NACT. Discussion Overexpression of CAV1 in patients with breast cancer administered NACT was associated with shorter disease-free survival and overall survival. Therefore, high levels of CAV1 may serve as a prognostic biomarker for such patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Neurovascular compression (NVC) is hypothesized to be the main pathogenic factor of trigeminal neuralgia (TN). Microvascular decompression (MVD) has become a popular surgery for TN, and the success rate depends on the degree of NVC. As the routine examination before MVD, magnetic resonance tomographic angiography (MRTA) shows high sensitivity for detecting NVC. However, there are no reports on the sensitivity of MRTA for assessing the degree of NVC. METHODS This study aimed to evaluate the sensitivity of MRTA for determining the degree of NVC by comparing preoperative MRTA and intraoperative endoscopy findings. A total of 480 patients who suffered from TN and underwent MVD were included. Their preoperative MRTA and intraoperative endoscopy findings were reviewed. The kappa test was used to identify similarities between the MRTA and endoscopy findings. RESULTS The degree of NVC on preoperative MRTA was similar to that on endoscopy (kappa = 0.770). The number of offending vessels according to preoperative MRTA was coincident with that according to endoscopy (kappa = 0.722). CONCLUSION MRTA had high sensitivity for detecting not only the presence of NVC but also the degree of NVC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To build a discriminant function of clonorchiasis sinensis using stepwise discriminant analysis, so as to investigate the feasibility of discriminant analysis for clonorchiasis sinensis screening. METHODS Ten villages in Mulan County of Harbin City were sampled as the study sites using a cluster random sampling method. The fecal samples were collected from the permanent residents in the study sites and detected for Clonorchis sinensis eggs using the modified Kato-Katz smear technique. A questionnaire of clonorchiasis sinensis was designed. All data were entered into Epidata 3.1, and a discriminant analysis was performed using the software SPSS version 15.0. Variable were screened using the stepwise discriminant analysis, and the discriminant function was built using the Fisher's discriminant analysis method. The effectiveness of the discriminant function for clonorchiasis sinensis screening was evaluated by comparison with the modified Kato-Katz smear method. RESULTS Eight variables with statistical significance were included to build the discriminant function, including chronic cholecystitis, cholangitis, gender, eating raw fish, abdominal distension, ethnicity, abdominal pain and age, and the correction rate of the discriminant function was 88.75% to identify clonorchiasis sinensis. CONCLUSIONS The discriminant function of clonorchiasis sinensis can be rapidly and simply built based on the strong data processing and analysis capability of the SPSS software, which is rapid to screen clonorchiasis sinensis in Harbin City. Such a function has a high discriminant analysis capability, and provides insights into the establishment of rapid screening of clonorchiasis sinensis in other endemic areas.

Abstract
Summary Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome(JLNS) is an autosomal recessive hereditary disease characterized by congenital severe sensorineural hearing loss in both ears and severe arrhythmias with QT interval prolongation. Children with JLNS often exhibit sensorineural hearing loss and are easily misdiagnosed as non-syndromic hearing loss before attack of cardiac event. When a cochlear implant is performed, a fatal arrhythmia is likely to occur during the perioperative period, which seriously threatens the life of the child. It is currently found that the pathogenic genes of JLNS are mainly KCNQ1 and KCNE1. This article reviews the clinical manifestations, pathogenic genes, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, intervention measures of JLNS to further draw the attention to the disease, reduce misdiagnosis, improve the survival rate and quality of life of children with JLNS.

Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of endogenous, covalently closed, single-stranded RNA without 3'-poly(A) and 5'-cap structures. CircRNAs are characterized by universality, diversity, stability and conservation, and have been found to regulate mammalian transcription and be translated into proteins. In this review, we summarized the biogenesis, classification, expression, distribution, biological functions and regulation of circRNAs. In addition, we discussed the association of circRNAs with diseases and the methods for identification and characterization of circRNAs. Finally, we speculated the application prospect and research direction of circRNAs.

Abstract
Sea urchin (Mesocentrotus nudus) is an economically important mariculture species in China and the gonads are the solely edible parts to human. The molecular mechanisms of gonad development have attracted increasing attention in recent years. Although the nanos2 gene has been identified as a germ cell marker in several invertebrates, little is known about nanos2 in adult sea urchins. Hereinto, we report the characterization of Mnnano2, an M. nudus nanos2 homology gene. Mnnanos2 is a maternal factor and can be detected continuously during embryogenesis and early ontogeny. Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and section in situ hybridization (ISH) analysis revealed a dynamic and sexually dimorphic expression pattern of Mnnano2 in the gonads. Its expression reached the maximal level at Stage 2 along with the gonad development in both ovary and testis. In the ovary, Mnnanos2 is specifically expressed in germ cells. In contrast, Mnnanos2 is expressed in both nutritive phagocytes (NP) cells and male germ cells in testis. Moreover, knocking down of Mnnanos2 by means of RNA interference (RNAi) reduced nanos2 and boule expression but conversely increased the expression of foxl2. Therefore, our data suggest that Mnnanos2 may serve as a female germ cell marker during gametogenesis and provide chances to uncover its function in adult sea urchin.
