Abstract
Objective: To analyze genioglossus (GG) activation responses to the negative pressure of upper airway cavity during awake and different sleep stages in patients with different obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) graduation. Methods: This prospective cohort study started from August 2019 to January 2021, recruited 42 male OSA patients aged from 21 to 59 (38.77±8.42) years. After completing whole night polysomnography (PSG) and upper airway CT, each subject underwent drug-induced sleep with simultaneous monitoring of genioglossal electromyography (GGEMG) and pressure of epiglottis (Pepi). Subjects were divided into three groups of mild OSA(7 males), moderate OSA(12 males), and severe OSA(23 males). The differences in upper airway CT measurements, parameters of GGEMG and Pepi during awake and induced sleep were compared. Statistical analysis was conducted by SPSS 21.0. Results: There was no significant difference in the GGEMG parameters between the mild and moderate groups. In wakefulness, the peak phasic GGEMG of the severe group was higher than the mild group (t=1.249, P=0.025), with no statistically difference in the corresponding Pepi. In the sleep onset, the GGEMG parameters and Pepi in severe group were higher than the other two groups. Linear regression analysis of the maximum GGEMG and maximum Pepi at the end of obstructive apnea (OA) in all moderate plus severe patients (n=35) was shown nonlinear correlation (r=0.28, P=0.694). The airway length of the glossopharyngeal cavity was linearly correlated with the maximum Pepi of OA (r=0.468, R2=0.219, P=0.005). Conclusions: The individual difference of GG activation in OSA patients is related to the severity of the disease (frequency of respiratory events) and negative pressure stimulation. In moderate and severe OSA patients, GG activity is not in harmony with the corresponding negative pressure stimulation, which may be one of the mechanisms leading to the aggravation of OSA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP) remains one of the major digestive emergencies with increasing health risks. Oral refeeding tolerant (ORT) and enteral tube feeding tolerant (ETFT) are commonly used for nutritional management in HLAP. However, the differences between ORT and ETFT are yet to be characterized. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study included consecutive patients admitted to the Ordos Central Hospital between January 2019 and April 2023, with predefined inclusion criteria. RESULTS A total of 335 HLAP patients were recruited according to the inclusion criteria. 268 patients were diagnosed with moderately severe acute pancreatitis (MSAP), of which 193 were in the OFT group and 75 in the ETFT group. In the ETFT group, abdominal pain and abdominal distension were significantly higher than that in the OFT group. No significant result was identified in the laboratory data. However, the OFT group showed a higher hospitalization and cost, as well as exocrine insufficiency and newly onset diabetes, than the ETFT group. CONCLUSIONS Based on the incidence of HLAP retrieved in this study, MSAP is the major type with increasing clinical value. From the nutritional management sense, patients who received OFT showed higher hospitalization and cost, as well as lower exocrine insufficiency and newly onset diabetes.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) High grade gliomas (HGGs) are aggressive brain tumors with altered cellular metabolism. HGGs can carry mutations in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle enzyme isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1), conferring distinct biology and improved patient prognosis compared to IDH wildtype (wt) tumors. Using metabolomic analyses of tumor tissue, we previously showed that IDH wt and IDH mutant (IDH mut) tumors have unique metabolomic signatures that correlate with different survival outcomes. Among this cohort of 69 HGG samples, we identified two unique patient tumors that metabolically clustered with IDH mut tumors, but lacked both the IDH mutation and its product 2-hydroxyglutarate. We aimed to discover unique mutations in these two tumors that may impart an IDH mutant-like phenotype in the absence of an IDH1 or IDH2 mutation. MATERIALS/METHODS Whole exome sequencing (WES) was performed on frozen tumor samples from two patients diagnosed as glioblastoma (GBM), IDH wt via Agilent v5 + IncRNA platform. Alignment to the hg38 genome and variant calling were completed using an accelerated implementation of GATK's BWA and MuTect2 algorithms from Sentieon. Variants were filtered based on supporting reads and variant allele thresholds, with synonymous variants and common SNPs removed. High-confidence variants were further filtered by membership in the four KEGG pathways associated with IDH1 and IDH2. Identified variants were corroborated with metabolomics data from the two unique IDH wt tumors compared with classical GBM IDH wt, oligodendrogliomas IDH mut and astrocytomas IDH mut to identify putative drivers of an IDH mutant-like metabolomic phenotype in these unique IDH wt tumors. RESULTS Despite the lack of an IDH mutation, one patient survived 45.6 months and the other patient remains alive at last follow up 64 months post diagnosis, much longer than the 16-18-month median survival typical of patients with GBM IDH wt. WES of outlier IDH wt tumor samples revealed 65 unique mutations in the queried KEGG pathways, of which 34 had a variant allele frequency > = 0.15. These variants were processed in Gprofiler, confirming expected enrichment of the carboxylic acid metabolic biologic process, a functional gene set consisting of TCA genes, among these variants (p = 0.002, 3.6-fold enrichment). Accordingly, metabolite levels of intermediates of the TCA cycle, including malate and isocitrate were decreased in the outlier tumor samples compared to classic GBMs IDH wt (p<0.001). Presence of genetic alterations in key variants of the carboxylic acid metabolic biologic process (including ME1, GYP4F3, PTGIS, PFKL, PSPH, AKR1A1, HK2, NOS1) correlated with improved overall survival among GBM patients in the TCGA (p = 0.04). Laboratory validation of these findings in preclinical GBM models is ongoing. CONCLUSION Disruption of the TCA cycle independent of an IDH mutation is associated with favorable survival in GBM. Pharmacologic inhibition of these pathways may be a promising strategy to improve GBM outcomes.

Abstract
Lincomycin is a widely used aminoglycoside antibiotic. For its separation from fermentation broth in production, solvent extraction is usually applied because of its low cost and high capacity compared to other bioseparation methods. The multistage mixer-settler is a common extraction equipment in commercial production, but it occupies a large area and causes pollution. In this study, a fully enclosed turbine tower was designed and applied in order to replace the mixer-settler. Its structure parameters (turbine diameter, tray porosity) were optimized on the basis of the extraction effect of lincomycin. The results showed that with 35% tray porosity and 28/26 mm turbine diameter of the tower, the extraction rate was kept above 99.0% steadily under 375 rpm/min rotating speed and 60 °C temperature. The extraction effect is much better than mixer-settler and such turbine tower is expected to be applied in the commercial production of lincomycin.

Abstract
Repeated low-level red-light (RLRL), characterized by increased energy supply and cellular metabolism, thus enhancing metabolic repair processes, has gained persistent worldwide attention in recent years as a new novel scientific approach for therapeutic application in myopia. This therapeutic revolution led by RLRL therapy is due to significant advances in bioenergetics and photobiology, for instance, enormous progresses in photobiomodulation regulated by cytochrome c oxidase, the primary photoreceptor of the light in the red to near infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, as the primary mechanism of action in RLRL therapy. This oxidase is also a key mitochondrial enzyme for cellular bioenergetics, especially for the nerve cells in the retina and brain. In addition, dopamine (DA)-enhanced release of nitric oxide may also be involved in controlling myopia by activation of nitric oxide synthase, enhancing cGMP signaling. Recent evidence has also suggested that RLRL may inhibit myopia progression by inhibiting spherical equivalent refraction (SER) progression and axial elongation without adverse effects. In this review, we provide scientific evidence for RLRL therapy as a unique paradigm to control myopia and support the theory that targeting neuronal energy metabolism may constitute a major target for the neurotherapeutics of myopia, with emphasis on its molecular, cellular, and nervous tissue levels, and the potential benefits of RLRL therapy for myopia.

Abstract
Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is not only safer than chenodeoxycholic acid in the treatment of hepatobiliary diseases, but also has a wide range of applications in Acute Kidney Injury and Parkinson's Disease. The purpose of this experiment is to improve the conversion rate of 7-ketocholic acid (7K-LCA) and the yield of ursodeoxycholic acid in aprotic solvents during electrochemical reduction process. Three aprotic solvents were investigated as electrolytes. 1,3-Dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone (DMI) has a stable five-membered ring structure, and 7K-LCA has undergone two nucleophilic reactions and "Walden" inversion, the 7K-LCK was stereoselectively reduced to UDCA. Hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) and 1,3-methyl-3,4,5,6-Tetrahydro-2(1H)-pyrimidinone (DMPU) can be attacked by chloride ions to produce by-products. Molecular orbital theory-based simulations were conducted to study the reducibility of three aprotic solvents [hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA), 1,3-methyl-3,4,5,6-Tetrahydro-2(1H)-pyrimidinone (DMPU), and 1,3-Dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone (DMI)] in combination with experiments. Choose the best solvent based on the simulation results, the electrolysis reaction can be carried out by applying current and voltage when lithium chloride is used as electrolytes. Calculations using Materials Studio showed that Cu, Pb, Hg-Cu, and Ni exhibited the highest binding energies to the substrate in this system. Using Cu as the electrode when the solvent is a 1:1 mix of DMI and HMPA, the conversion rate of 7-ketocholic acid (could reach 98%, the yield of ursodeoxycholic acid was up to 80%. Under the same conditions, linear voltammetry was performed on the electrochemical workstation to study the electrolysis behavior, and the obtained results were consistent with the experiment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to identify sex-specific biomarkers for ischemic stroke (IS) prophylaxis in elderly individuals. MATERIALS AND METHODS The GSE22255 dataset for elderly individuals with IS was retrieved from the gene expression omnibus database. Thereafter, gene ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were performed, as well as gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). Furthermore, protein-protein interactions (PPIs) were explored using the STRING database, and to screen central genes from the Cytoscape PPI network, corresponding to peripheral blood samples from elderly individuals, we used the molecular complex detection plug-in and cytoHubba. Moreover, a Venn diagram was used to visualize the key genes common among elderly women and men with IS. Statistical analysis was also performed, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed to evaluate the specificity and sensitivity of the prediction of IS in the elderly. RESULTS Compared with the healthy controls, in elderly women with IS, 511 biological process (BP) terms, 16 molecular function (MF) terms, and 34 KEGG terms were significantly enriched, whereas in the elderly men with IS, 681 BP terms, 12 MF terms, and 44 KEGG terms were enriched. The GSEA revealed 99 and 140 significantly enriched gene sets in elderly women and men with IS, respectively. Furthermore, in the PPI network, 10 hub genes for each sex with high specificity and sensitivity were identified using ROC curves. CONCLUSIONS Ten genes for each sex with significant differential expression were also identified in individuals with IS. The novel sex-specific gene targets may be promising diagnostic or prognostic markers and potential therapeutic targets for IS in the elderly.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the risk and influencing factors of long-term mortality of valvular heart disease (VHD) adults aged 35 years and over in Chinese communities. Methods: A cohort study was carried out. The data of the subjects who underwent echocardiography were collected from the Chinese Hypertension Survey between 2012 and 2015 and survival outcomes were followed up between 2018 and 2019. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were plotted and compared using log-rank test. Cox proportional hazards models were used to analyze the influence of VHD on mortality. Results: During an average follow-up time of (4.6±0.9) years, a total of 23 237 participants (10 881 males and 12 356 females) were pooled into the final analysis from 5 eastern, 5 central, and 4 western provinces, cities and autonomous regions in China, with a mean age of (56.9±13.2) years. Among the included participants, 1 004 had VHD (467 males and 537 females), with a mean age was of (68.1±12.6) years. In the Kaplan-Meier analysis, participants with VHD had a significantly increased risk of all-cause mortality (log-rank χ2=351.82, P<0.001) and cardiovascular mortality (log-rank χ2=284.14, P<0.001) compared with those without VHD. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that compared with those without VHD, the participants with rheumatic VHD had a 45% increased risk of all-cause mortality (HR=1.45, 95%CI: 1.12-1.89) and degenerative VHD increased the risk of cardiovascular mortality by 69% (HR=1.69, 95%CI: 1.19-2.38). The risk factors of cardiovascular mortality for VHD were age 55 years and over (55-<75 years: HR=4.93, 95%CI: 1.17-20.85;≥75 years: HR=11.92, 95%CI: 2.85-49.80) and diabetes mellitus (HR=1.71, 95%CI: 1.00-2.93). Conclusions: VHD is a risk factor of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality among adults aged 35 years and over. Age 55 years and over and diabetes mellitus are adverse prognostic factors for patients with VHD.

Abstract
Drought is one of the most adverse environmental stresses limiting plant growth and productivity. However, the underlying mechanisms regarding metabolism of non-structural carbohydrates (NSC) in source and sink organs are still not fully elucidated in woody trees. Saplings of mulberry cv Zhongshen1 and Wubu were subjected to a 15-day progressive drought stress. NSC levels and gene expression involved in NSC metabolism were investigated in roots and leaves. Growth performance and photosynthesis, leaf stomatal morphology, and other physiological parameters were also analysed. Under well-watered conditions, Wubu had a higher R/S, with higher NSC in leaves than in roots; Zhongshen1 had a lower R/S with higher NSC in roots than leaves. Under drought stress, Zhongshen1 showed decreased productivity and increased proline, abscisic acid, ROS content and activity of antioxidant enzymes, while Wubu sustained comparable productivity and photosynthesis. Interestingly, drought resulted in decreased starch and slightly increased soluble sugars in leaves of Wubu, accompanied by notable downregulation of starch-synthesizing genes and upregulation of starch-degrading genes. Similar patterns in NSC levels and relevant gene expression were also observed in roots of Zhongshen1. Concurrently, soluble sugars decreased and starch was unchanged in roots of Wubu and leaves of Zhongshen1. However, gene expression of starch metabolism in roots of Wubu was unaltered, but in leaves of Zhongshen1 starch metabolism was more activated. These findings revealed that intrinsic R/S and spatial distribution of NSC in roots and leaves concomitantly contribute to drought resistance in mulberry.

Abstract
Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused several pandemic peaks worldwide due to its high variability and infectiousness, and COVID-19 has become a long-standing global public health problem. There is growing evidence that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) frequently causes multi-organ injuries and more severe neurological manifestations. Therefore, increased awareness of possible neurological complications is beneficial in preventing and mitigating the impact of long-term sequelae and improving the prognostic outcome of critically ill patients with COVID-19. Here, we review the main pathways of SARS-CoV-2 neuroinvasion and the potential mechanisms causing neurological damage. We also discuss in detail neurological complications, aiming to provide cutting-edge basis for subsequent related basic research and clinical studies of diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
In order to predict how mAbs partition in 20% ethylene oxide/80% propylene oxide (v/v) random copolymer (EO20PO80)/water aqueous two-phase system (ATPS), a molecular dynamic simulation model was developed using Gromacs and then validated by experiments. The ATPS was applied with seven kinds of salt, including buffer salt and strong dissociation salt that were commonly employed in the purification of protein. Na2SO4 was shown to have the best effects on lowering EO20PO80 content in the aqueous phase and enhancing recovery. The content of EO20PO80 in the sample solution was decreased to 0.62%±0.25% and the recovery of rituximab increased to 97.88%±0.95% by adding 300 mM Na2SO4 into back extraction ATPS. The viability determined by ELISA was 95.57% at the same time. A strategy for constructing a prediction model for the distribution of mAbs in ATPS was proposed in consideration of this finding. Partition of trastuzumab in ATPS was predicted by the model created using this method and the prediction result was further validated by experiments. The recovery of trastuzumab reached 95.63%±2.86% under the ideal extraction conditions suggested by the prediction model.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the prevalence of albuminuria in Chinese residents aged >35 years and its potential association with cardiovascular disease (CVD). Methods: A total of 34 647 Chinese subjects aged ≥35 years were selected by stratified multi-stage random sampling from 2012 to 2015. Data were collected through questionnaires, physical examinations, and laboratory tests. Albuminuria was categorized into 3 types according to urinary albumin-to- creatinine ratio: normal (<30 mg/g), microalbuminuria (MAU, 30-300 mg/g), and macroalbuminuria (≥300 mg/g). Measurement data were expressed as x¯±s, and t-tests were used for comparisons between indicators. Qualitative data were expressed as rate or constituent ratio, and the χ2 test or Kruskal-Wallis test was used to examine differences. Logistic regression was used for multivariate analyses. SAS 9.4 software was used for statistical analyses, and P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The prevalence of abnormal albuminuria was 19.1%; the prevalence was 17.2% for MAU and lower in males (13.8%) than females (20.1%, P<0.01). The risk of CVD was higher among subjects with MAU (OR=1.23, 95%CI 1.12-1.35) and macroalbuminuria (OR=1.86, 95%CI 1.50-2.32). When MAU was complicated by hypertension and diabetes mellitus, the CVD risk was 1.76 times higher. Conclusions: The prevalence of MAU is high among Chinese subjects aged 35 years and over. Those with MAU have higher CVD risk, especially those with hypertension and diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Radiation-induced cancer (RIC) is a late complication in patients who have been treated for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). The comparison of index anatomic location, index histological type, and survival of RIC in patients with NPC after different radiotherapy modalities (intensity-modulated radiotherapy [IMRT], 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy [3D-CRT], and conventional 2D radiotherapy) is currently unavailable. METHODOLOGY A total of 38,565 patients with NPC who received curative-intent radiotherapy at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center between January 1986 and December 2017 were reviewed. A total of 141 patients who developed RIC and fulfilled the study criteria were included. Categorical variables were compared by the chi-square test or Fisher's exact test. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to evaluate overall survival. Cox proportional hazards models were used to examine the independent significance of RIC treatment. RESULTS Among IMRT, 3D-CRT, and conventional 2D radiotherapy, the incidence of mandible RIC was higher in patients who received 3D-CRT (0.07%) than in those who received IMRT (0%). The proportion of mandible RICs was higher in patients who received 3D-CRT (16.667%) than in those who received IMRT (0%) and conventional 2D radiotherapy (3.529%). Regarding the histological type, the incidence of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) was higher in patients who received conventional 2D radiotherapy (0.266%) than in those who received 3D-CRT (0.175%); patients who received IMRT had a higher proportion of SCC than those who received 3D-CRT/conventional 2D radiotherapy (86.4% vs. 41.7% vs. 74.2%); the incidence of sarcoma was higher in patients who received 3D-CRT (0.175%) than in those who received IMRT (0.025%); and the proportion of sarcoma was higher in patients who received 3D-CRT (41.667%) than in those who received IMRT (6.818%) and conventional 2D radiotherapy (17.647%). Patients who received surgery for RICs had better survival than those who received no surgery (64.49 vs. 12.42 months). In the univariate and multivariate analyses, surgery was an independent prognostic factor for overall survival. CONCLUSIONS Our results have implications for long-term follow-up of RIC, multidisciplinary management, and patient counseling of RIC after nasopharyngeal carcinoma treatment by treating clinicians.

Abstract
This paper is dedicated to reviewing relative research on humanistic caring ability of intern nursing students and proposing strategies to improve humanistic caring ability. Firstly, current paper collected information from both domestic and foreign literature, and then scientific analysis, summary and overview of research results were conducted with regards to humanistic caring ability of interns nursing students. By analyzing the current situation of intern nursing students' humanistic caring ability, and factors that have influence on humanistic caring ability of intern nursing students, the present paper is determined to come up with feasible change methods and form strategic paths. At present, the humanistic care ability of intern nursing students is relatively low. Students, schools, hospitals, and the society all exert influence on the humanistic care ability of intern nursing students. Although scholars' research is different in topics or focus, the conclusions drawn from this research are highly consistent. Nursing humanistic care is the internal quality of nursing staff concerning morality, humanity, and integration of knowledge, concepts, and attitudes. Nursing humanistic care ability includes caring experience ability and caring behavior ability. The necessary psychological characteristics of personality are regarded as a special ability. It is of great significance to promote the quality of nursing and humanistic care ability of intern nursing students who serve as the backup force of nursing talent team. Meanwhile, it is imperative to strengthen the construction of intern nursing students' humanistic care ability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of our study was to elucidate the clinical characteristics of alcoholic-hyperlipidemic etiologically complex acute pancreatitis. PATIENTS AND METHODS We reviewed complete data from 233 patients with acute pancreatitis treated in our hospital during the period January 2017-January 2022. They were divided into three groups according to etiology: alcoholic acute pancreatitis (AAP), hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP), and alcoholic-hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (AHAP). General clinical data, co-morbidities, laboratory results, imaging data, and disease severity were analyzed and compared between groups. RESULTS The proportion of male individuals in the AHAP group was significantly higher than that in the HLAP group (p<0.001). Age of onset was lower and the number of cases with antibiotic use was higher in the AHAP group than in the AAP group (p<0.05). Additionally, the average alcohol intake each time and weekly alcohol intake were also higher in the AHAP group than in the AAP group (p<0.05). Comparison of disease severity (moderate and severe acute pancreatitis, severe acute pancreatitis, and modified computed tomography severity index score) revealed the disease condition to be more severe in the AHAP group than in the AAP and HLAP groups (p<0.05). Accordingly, patients in the AHAP group had longer hospital stays than those in the other two groups (p<0.05). There were no significant differences in alcohol consumption, severity, or length of hospital stay in the AHAP group (p>0.05). CONCLUSIONS The clinical characteristics of patients in the AHAP, AAP and HLAP groups were different, and the patients in the AHAP group were more likely to have a moderate to severe disease course, with longer hospital stay. As a new AP classification concept, AHAP would offer high significance for diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the method and efficacy of reconstruction of facial skin defects after removing the lesions by applying the V-Y subcutaneous pedicle flap. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 23 patients with facial reconstruction by using V-Y subcutaneous pedicle flap in the Otolaryngology Department of Guangdong Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital from March 2012 to April 2021. Patient ages ranged from 45 to 85 years old, with a mean age of 66.5 years (14 males and 9 females). The facial lesion sites included cheek in 12 cases (nearly lower eyelid in 4 cases), nose in 4 cases, lips in 3 cases, temporal in 2 cases and mental region in 2 cases. The initial pathology included malignant tumors (7 cases of basal cell carcinoma (BCC), 2 cases of squamous cell carcinoma(SCC), and 1 case of malignant melanoma) and benign lesions (7 cases of keratoderma, 3 cases of intradermal nevus, 1 case of pilomatricoma, 1 case of cutaneous mixed tumor and 1 case of epidermal cyst). The V-Y subcutaneous facial pedicled flaps were designed reasonably after the facial lesions were excised. The advantages of blood supply, survival rate and adverse events of the flap were analyzed Chi-square test was used to compare the observation results of different types of patients. Results: The primary focus of 23 patients was excised surgically, and intraoperative frozen-section examinations were performed for obtaining margins negative as far as possible. One positive margin was still found in 1 patient after multiple resection in our group. The defect sizes were 14 mm×12 mm-59 mm×54 mm. All the flaps survived. The adverse events were slight necrosis of the epidermis at the junction or vicinity of the three arms of "Y" shaped in 4 cases, but the wounds finally recovered by wet compress and dressing change. There were no significant differences in the incidences of adverse events between double and single pedicle flaps (4/19 vs. 0/4), between benign and malignant lesions (4/13 vs. 0/10), and between patients with and without underlying diseases (1/6 vs. 3/17) (χ2 values were 0.98, 3.56, 0.01, respectively, all P>0.05). There were no other major complications such as dehiscence, hematoma, eyelid ectropion and lip deformation. The patients with benign lesions were followed-up at least for 3 months, while those with malignant tumors were followed-up for 6-36 months postoperatively, without recurrence. Conclusions: V-Y subcutaneous facial pedicled skin flap may be a "no-easy-necrotic" local flap in the repair of small and medium-sized facial defects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The association between the spatially distributed level of active TGFβ1 in human subchondral bone, and the characteristic structural and cellular parameters of human knee OA, was assessed. DESIGN Paired subchondral bone samples from 35 OA arthroplasty patients, (15 men and 20 women, aged 69 ± 9 years) were obtained from beneath macroscopically present (CA+) or denuded cartilage (CA-) to determine the concentration of active TGFβ1 (ELISA) and its relationship to bone quality (synchrotron micro-CT), cellularity, and vascularization (histology). RESULTS Bone samples beneath (CA-) regions had significantly increased concentrations of active TGFβ1 protein (mean difference: 26.4; 95% CI: [3.2, 49.7]), when compared to bone in CA + regions. Trabecular Bone below (CA-) regions had increased bone volume (median difference: 4.3; 96.49% CI: [-1.7, 17.8]), increased trabecular number (1.5 [0.006, 2.6], decreased trabecular separation (-0.05 [-0.1,-0.005]), and increased bone mineral density (394.5 [65.7, 723.3]) comparing to (CA+) regions. Further, (CA-) bone regions showed increased osteocyte density (0.012 [0.006, 0.018]), with larger osteocyte lacunae (39.8 [7.8, 71.7]) that were less spherical (-0.02 [-0.04, -0.003]), and increased bone matrix vascularity (12.4 [0.3, 24.5]) compared to (CA+). In addition, increased levels of active TGFβ1 related to increased bone volume (0.04 [-0.11, 0.9]), while increased OARSI grade associated with lacunar volume (-44.1 [-71.1, -17.2]), and orientation (2.7 [0.8, 4.6]). CONCLUSION Increased concentration of active TGFβ1 in the subchondral bone of human knee OA associates spatially with impaired bone quality and disease severity, suggesting that TGFβ1 is a potential therapeutic target to prevent or reduce human OA disease progression.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the prevalence, awareness, treatment and control status of dyslipidemia among females aged ≥35 years old across China. Methods: Participants were selected by stratified multistage random sampling method in the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" National Science and Technology Support Project "Survey on the Prevalence of Important Cardiovascular Diseases and Key Technology Research in China" project. This study is a retrospective, cross-sectional study. A total of 17 418 females aged 35 years and over were included in the current study. The basic information such as age, medical history and menopause was collected by questionnaire. The blood lipid parameters were derived from clinical laboratory examinations. The prevalence of dyslipidemia and the rate of awareness, treatment, and control of dyslipidemia were analyzed in females aged 35 years and over. Results: The age of participants was (56.2±13.0) years old, and the prevalence of dyslipidemia was 33.1% (5 765/17 418). The prevalence rates of high total cholesterol, hypertriglyceridemia, low HDL-C and high LDL-C were 9.7% (1 695/17 418), 11.1% (1 925/17 418), 10.9% (1 889/17 418) and 7.3% (1 262/17 418), respectively. The prevalence of dyslipidemia increased with age and the prevalence of dyslipidemia in women who were not married, Han, menarche age>16 years, obesity, central obesity, alcohol consumption, diabetes, hypertension and family history of cardiovascular disease were higher than those without such characteristics (P<0.05). There were 10 432 (59.9%) menopausal females in this cohort and prevalence of dyslipidemia of these participants was 38.8% (4 048/10 432), which was higher than that of non-postmenopausal females (24.6%, 1 717/6 986) (P<0.05). The awareness rates, treatment rates and control rates of dyslipidemia were 33.9% (1 953/5 765), 15.1% (870/5 765) and 2.5% (143/5 765) respectively among females aged 35 years and over in China. Conclusion: The prevalence of dyslipidemia in Chinese females aged 35 years and over is high, and its awareness, treatment, and control rates need to be optimized.

Abstract
Objective: To construct a novel prognostic nomogram model based on more comprehensive variables for patients with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Methods: The data of 722 patients with SCLC confirmed by pathology in Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from January 2015 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed [including 592 males and 130 females, aged from 23 to 82(61±9) years]. A random seed count of 133 was used to divide those patients into training set (n=422) and validation set (n=300). Kaplan-Meier was used for survival curves analysis and univariate Log-rank test was used for evaluating the influence of clinical variables on the prognosis of sclc, variables with P<0.05 in univariate analysis were included in a multivariate Cox regression model. The nomogram was constructed based on the variables which P<0.05 in multivariate analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration by Integrated Brier score (IBS) and clinical net benefit by decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate model discriminative power, prediction error value, and clinical net benefit, and compared with the American Joint Committee on Cancer 8th TNM. Results: Male, abnormal monocyte (MON) counts, abnormal neuron specific enolase (NSE), abnormal cytokeratin 19 fragment (Cyfra211), M1a stage, M1b stage, M1c stage, radiotherapy (RT), chemotherapy ≥4 cycles and prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) were prognostic factors for SCLC[HR(95%CI)=1.39(1.00-1.92), 1.29(1.02-1.63), 1.41(1.11-1.80), 2.02(1.48-2.76), 1.09(0.77-1.55), 1.44(0.94-2.22), 2.01(1.49-2.71), 0.75(0.57-0.98), 0.40(0.31-0.51)and 0.42(0.26-0.68), respectively, all P<0.05]. The area under ROC curve (AUC) of the nomogram in training set and validation set were 0.814(95%CI: 0.765-0.862)and 0.787 (95%CI: 0.725-0.849), which were higher than TNM [0.616(95%CI: 0.558-0.674) and 0.648(95%CI: 0.581-0.715)].The calibration curve showed a good correlation between the nomogram prediction and actual observation for the 2-year overall survival (OS). IBS indicted a lower prediction error rate (training set: 0.132 vs 0.169; validation set: 0.138 vs 0.169). DCA showed a wider threshold range than TNM (training set: 0.01-0.96 vs 0.01-0.85, validation set: 0.01-0.94 vs 0.01-0.86) and a greater improvement of the clinical net benefit (in training set the nomogram had a greater clinical benefit than TNM in the range of 0.19-0.96, and remained in validation set in the range of 0.19-0.94). Conclusion: The established nomogram model for predicting 2-year OS in patients with SCLC based on 8 variables, including gender, MON, NSE, Cyfra211, M stage, RT, CT cycles and PCI can be used for an more accurately prognosis prediction and reference for therapeutic regimen selection.

Abstract
Abiotic stresses have a detrimental impact on plant growth and productivity and are a major threat to sustainable crop production in rapidly changing environments. Proline, an important amino acid, plays an important role in maintaining the metabolism and growth of plants under abiotic stress conditions. Many insights indicate a positive relationship between proline accumulation and tolerance of plants to various abiotic stresses. Because of its metal chelator properties, it acts as a molecular chaperone, an antioxidative defence molecule that scavenges reactive oxygen species (ROS), as well as having signalling behaviour to activate specific gene functions that are crucial for plant recovery from stresses. It also acts as an osmoprotectant, a potential source to acquire nitrogen as well as carbon, and plays a significant role in the flowering and development of plants. Overproduction of proline in plant cells contributes to maintaining cellular homeostasis, water uptake, osmotic adjustment and redox balance to restore the cell structures and mitigate oxidative damage. Many reports reveal that transgenic plants, particularly those overexpressing genes tailored for proline accumulation, exhibit better adaptation to abiotic stresses. Therefore, this review aims to provide a comprehensive update on proline biosynthesis and accumulation in plants and its putative regulatory roles in mediating plant defence against abiotic stresses. Additionally, the current and future directions in research concerning manipulation of proline to induce gene functions that appear promising in genetics and genomics approaches to improve plant adaptive responses under changing climate conditions are also highlighted.

Abstract
AbstractPhotocatalytic hydrogen production as a technology to solve energy and environmental problems exhibits great prospect and the exploration of new photocatalytic materials is crucial. In this research, the ternary composite catalyst of MoS2/Fe2O3/g-C3N4 was successfully prepared by a hydrothermal method, and then a series of characterizations were conducted. The characterization results demonstrated that the composite catalyst had better photocatalytic performance and experiment results had confirmed that the MoS2/Fe2O3/g-C3N4 composite catalyst had a higher hydrogen production rate than the single-component catalyst g-C3N4, which was 7.82 mmol g−1 h−1, about 5 times higher than the catalyst g-C3N4 (1.56 mmol g−1 h−1). The improvement of its photocatalytic activity can be mainly attributed to its enhanced absorption of visible light and the increase of the specific surface area, which provided more reactive sites for the composite catalyst. The successful preparation of composite catalyst provided more channels for carrier migration and reduced the recombination of photogenerated electrons and holes. Meanwhile, the composite catalyst also showed higher stability and repeatability.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the treatment options for breast cancer patients aged 65 and over, and analyze the influencing factors. Methods: The clinical data of 521 elderly patients aged 65 years or older,who underwent surgery in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2009 to December 2015, were collected. They were all female and 65-98 years old. The patients were divided into 65-74 years old group (n=353) and ≥ 75 years old group (n=168). The differences of variables including age, functional status, treatment methods, pathological characteristics, comorbidities and survival time between the two groups were compared, and the differences of comprehensive treatment methods and their impact on clinical efficacy were analyzed. Results: The main operation methods of the two groups were modified radical mastectomy [39.1% (138/353) and 33.9% (57/168), respectively], breast conserving surgery [56.9% (201/353) and 61.3% (103/353), respectively]. Among the patients choosing adjuvant therapy, there was no significant difference between the two groups except chemotherapy (all P>0.05). Univariate analysis showed that the choice of chemotherapy was related to age, surgical methods, pathological types, tumor burden, molecular typing, functional status and comorbidities (all P<0.05). The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score and the number of comorbidities were independent factors affecting the choice of chemotherapy for breast cancer in the elderly: [ECOG score: adjusted OR=0.45 (95CI: 0.26-0.75), number of comorbidities: adjusted OR = 0.63 (95CI:0.41-0.98); all P<0.05]. The 5-year disease-free survival rate of 521 elderly patients with breast cancer was 86.3%, 5-year overall survival rate was 88.8%, and the breast cancer specific survival rate was 94.3%. Conclusions: The comprehensive treatment of breast cancer patients aged 65 and above is not affected by age, but is associated with tumor burden, pathological type, molecular typing, comorbidities and ECOG score. Among them, ECOG score and the number of comorbidities are the independent factors influencing the choice of adjuvant chemotherapy.

Abstract
Citric acid is mainly produced in the fermentation industry, which needs complex processes and produces a high amount of CaSO4 as waste. In this study, CO2 has been used to convert calcium citrate to citric acid and CaCO3 by controlling the reaction parameters (reactants ratio, temperature, and pressure). The CaCO3 produced in this conversion could further be used in the fermentation industry for citric acid production. The transformation condition has been optimized by controlling temperature, pressure, reaction time, and mass ratio of calcium citrate and water. The highest conversion could reach up to 94.7% under optimal experimental conditions of 18 MPa of pressure, 65 °C of reaction temperature, 4 h of reaction time, and 2 g/L of calcium citrate/water suspension solution. This method features simple process, easy separation of citric acid, and environmentally friendly process, which could be a potentially alternative route for downstream treatment in fermentation production of citric acid.

Abstract
Recyclable aqueous two-phase systems with thermo-responsive phase-forming materials have been employed to separate macromolecules; however, these systems have achieved very limited separation efficiency for small molecules, such as antibiotics. In this study, aqueous two-phase systems composed of the ethylene oxide/propylene oxide copolymer and water were developed to extract alkaline antibiotics from the fermentation broth. In the aqueous two-phase systems with an ethylene oxide ratio of 20 and propylene oxide ratio of 80, the partition coefficients of tylosin and spiramycin reached 16.87 and 20.39, respectively, while the extraction recoveries were 70.67 and 86.70%, respectively. Coupled with mechanism analysis, we demonstrated the feasibility of extracting alkaline antibiotics using this aqueous two-phase system, especially for 16-membered macrolide antibiotics. The molecular dynamic simulation was employed to visualize the process of dual-phase formation and the partition behavior of antibiotics in an aqueous two-phase system. The dynamic simulation revealed the binding energy between the antibiotic and ethylene oxide/propylene oxide copolymers, which provides a simple indicator for screening suitable antibiotics in aqueous two-phase systems. Our recyclable aqueous two-phase systems provide a robust approach for the extraction of 16-membered macrolide antibiotics with ease of operation and high recovery rates, which is appropriate for large-scale extraction in the fermentation industry.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of attenuated Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) vector expressing oncomodulin (OCM) for treatment of mechanical optic nerve injury in rats. METHODS The proliferation characteristics and OCM expression of the recombinant HSV-1 vector (1716-OCM) was assessed in cultured Vero cells. Twelve-week-old SD rats were randomly divided into control group, 1716-OCM injection group and wild-type virus corneal infection group, and at 7, 14, 30 and 60 days post-infection (3 rats in each group at each time point), the expressions of OCM and HSV-1 structural protein gB in the retina and the hypothalamus of the rats were detected using immunofluorescence assay. Another 20 rats were randomized into sham operation group, PBS treatment group, 1716-OCM infection group and 1716-OCM infection with cAMP sensitization group (n=5), and in the latter 3 groups, rat models of optic nerve injury models were established followed by intravitreal injection of PBS, 1716-OCM or cAMP as indicated. At 45 days after the treatments, the rats were examined for visual electrophysiological function using FVEP method, and the number of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and the expression of myelin basic protein in the optic nerve were detected using immunofluorescence assay. RESULTS The recombinant 1716-OCM vector was capable of mediating effective expression of OCM in Vero cells in vitro, but its proliferation rate was much lower than that of the wild-type virus. In SD rats, the recombinant virus could mediate the expression of OCM in the RGC layer and choroid layer of the eyes without inducing significant structural damage of the eyes as compared with the wild-type virus. In rat models of optic nerve injury, 1716-OCM combined with cAMP significantly promoted the survival of retinal RGCs (P= 0.007) and inhibited demyelination of the optic nerve (P=0.03) as compared with the mock treatment. FVEP analysis showed that 1716-OCM combined with cAMP significantly promoted the recovery of the peak amplitude of ΔN1-P1 in the rats (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSION Attenuated recombinant 1716-OCM vector can mediate OCM expression in the retina of rats, and in rat models of mechanical optic nerve injury, intravitreal injection of 1716-OCM combined with cAMP can effectively alleviate optic nerve injuries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to establish a nomogram for predicting the severity of acute pancreatitis (AP) and verify its predictive value. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 571 AP patients received by Ordos Central Hospital from January 2015 to December 2018 were included in this study. According to the 2012 Revised Atlanta classification, the included subjects were classified into severe AP (SAP) group and non-severe AP (NSAP) group [including patient with mild AP (MAP) and moderately SAP (MSAP)]. The baseline characteristics, imageological data and pathological data within 24 h after the disease onset between the two groups were analyzed using One-way analysis of variance (one-way ANOVA). R language was used for establishing a predictive nomogram, whose performance was verified by clinical data of 150 AP cases collected from December 2018 to December 2019. RESULTS One-way ANOVA shows that SAP and NSAP patients show significant differences in sex, calcium ions, creatinine, neutrophils ratio, lymphocytes ratio and eosinophils ratio (p<0.05). A predictive nomogram was accordingly established using the six indicators. Validation on this predictive nomogram showed high internal validation concordance index (C-index) of 0.69 (95% CI, 0.64-0.74), and high external validation C-index of 0.71 (95% CI, 0.67-0.76). CONCLUSIONS This nomogram can be used as a clinical tool to predict the severity of SAP.

Abstract
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) is an antimicrobial cobweb-structured material produced by immune cells for clearance of pathogens in the body, but paradoxically associated with biofilm formation and exacerbated lung infections. To provide a better materials perspective on the pleiotropic roles played by NETs at diverse compositions/concentrations, a NETs-like material (called 'microwebs', abbreviated as μwebs) is synthesized for decoding the antimicrobial activity of NETs against Staphylococcus aureus in infection-relevant conditions. We show that μwebs composed of low-to-intermediate concentrations of DNA-histone complexes successfully trap and inhibit S. aureus growth and biofilm formation. However, with growing concentrations and histone proportions, the resulting microwebs appear gel-like structures accompanied by reduced antimicrobial activity that can even promote formation of S. aureus biofilms. Our simplified model of NETs provides a materials-based evidence on NETs-relevant pathology in the development of biofilms.

Background
Psychological stress is associated with high incidence of coronary heart disease and increases the risk of mortality and poor health status. Although a few studies have investigated psychological stress in this population, this problem is usually unrecognized and untreated in most Chinese patients with acute coronary syndrome. There is insufficient information regarding the features of psychological stress and associated factors among this population.
Purpose
This study aimed to assess the level of psychological stress and to identify its correlates in Chinese patients with acute coronary syndrome.
Methods
Patients aged over 18 years and with acute coronary syndrome were invited to participate in a cross-sectional survey in two tertiary public hospitals in China, from June to July 2019. A total of 332 patients completed measures of sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, psychological stress (10-item Perceived Stress Scale), and illness perception (Brief Illness Perceptions Questionnaire). Independent sample t-tests, bivariate correlations, and multivariable linear regression were performed to analyze potential correlates, including age, gender, education level, employment status, income, episode of illness, revascularization procedure, comorbidities, body mass index, blood pressure, blood glucose, blood lipids, and illness perception.
Results
The average patient age was 62.2 years, 67.5% were male, and 54.2% had less than high school education. The mean score for psychological stress was 21.30 ± 3.99 and 66.9% of patients had high psychological stress (score ≥ 20). Multivariable regression analysis showed that being overweight/obesity versus normal weight (body mass index: ≥ 24 kg/m2 versus < 24 kg/m2) was associated with lower psychological stress (β = -0.134, p = 0.007). Having a high level of fasting blood glucose (≥ 6.1 mmol/L) versus normal fasting blood glucose (< 6.1 mmol/L) was associated with high psychological stress (β = 0.123, p = 0.017). Additionally, negative cognitive illness perception (β = 0.190, p = 0.01), negative emotional illness perception (β = 0.290, p < 0.001), and poor illness understanding (β = 0.118, p = 0.032) were associated with high psychological stress.
Conclusions
Patients with acute coronary syndrome experience high psychological stress that is significantly correlated with body mass index, fasting blood glucose, and illness perception. Health professionals should recognize this issue and interventions looking to relive psychological stress may benefit from targeting these correlates.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The efficacy of dendritic cell vaccine to treat glioblastoma remained elusive and therefore we conducted a meta-analysis to explore the influence of dendritic cell vaccine on treatment efficacy of glioblastoma. METHODS PubMed, EMbase, Web of science, EBSCO and Cochrane library databases have been searched through October 2020, and we included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the efficacy of dendritic cell vaccine for glioblastoma. RESULTS Four RCTs and 267 patients were included in the meta-analysis. Compared to control group for glioblastoma, dendritic cell vaccine demonstrated no obvious impact on overall survival (HR=0.59; 95% CI=0.34 to 1.04; P=0.07), progression-free survival (PFS, HR=0.72; 95% CI=0.52 to 1.00; P=0.05), nervous system disorders (OR=0.61; 95% CI=0.29 to 1.29; P=0.20), or adverse events (OR=1.44; 95% CI=0.82 to 2.50; P=0.20). CONCLUSIONS Dendritic cell vaccine may be not effective to treat glioblastoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the mechanism of the antidepressant-like effects of Chaihu Guizhi decoction (CGD). OBJECTIVE Chaihu Guizhi decoction at the daily dose of 17 g/kg and solvent vehicle were administered by gavage in 12 and 14 male C57BL/6J mice for 7 consecutive days, respectively. Forced swimming test (FST), elevated plus maze (EPM) test, open field test (OFT) and novelty-suppressed feeding test (NSF) were performed to assess the depression- and anxiety-like behaviors and motor ability of the mice. We further used chronic social defeat stress (CSDS) and social interaction test to evaluate the antidepressant-like effects of CGD in comparison with the solvent vehicle. Western blotting and RT-qPCR were performed to detect the expressions of sirt1, p53, acetylated p53, and the neuron plasticity-related genes including synapsin I (Syn1), Rab4B, SNAP25 and tubulin beta4b in the hippocampus of the mice. OBJECTIVE In FST, the immobility time of CGDtreated mice was decreased significantly (P < 0.05); no significant differences were found in the performances in EPM, NSF and OFT tests between the two groups. In social interaction test, the mouse models of CSDS treated with CGD showed significantly increased time in the interaction zone (P < 0.05). Compared with those in the vehicle group, the CGD-treated mouse models exhibited significantly increased protein level of SIRT1 and decreased p53 acetylation (P < 0.05) with up-regulated synapsin I mRNA expression in the hippocampus (P < 0.05); no significant difference were found in Rab (P=0.813), SNAP (P=0.820), or Tubb mRNA expressions (P=0.864) between the two groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The postoperative pain associated with total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is severe for most patients. The analgesic efficacy and safety of preoperative use of selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors for patients undergoing TKA are unclear. OBJECTIVES We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess whether the use of selective COX-2 inhibitors before TKA decreases the postoperative pain intensity. METHODS Data sources: The PubMed, Embase, EBSCO, Web of Science, and Cochrane Controlled Register of Trials databases from inception to January 2020. STUDY ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA All randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in which the intervention treatment was preoperative selective COX-2 vs placebo in patients undergoing TKA and that had at least one of the quantitative outcomes mentioned in the following section of this paper were included. Letters, review articles, case reports, editorials, animal experimental studies, and retrospective studies were excluded. INTERVENTIONS All RCTs in which the intervention treatment was preoperative selective COX-2 vs placebo in patients undergoing TKA. STUDY APPRAISAL AND SYNTHESIS METHODS The quality of the RCTs was quantified using the Newcastle-Ottawa quality assessment scale. RevMan 5.3 software was used for the meta-analysis. RESULTS Six RCTs that had enrolled a total of 574 patients were included in the meta-analysis. The visual analog scale pain score at rest was significantly different between the experimental group and control group at 24 hours (P < .05) and 72 hours (P < .05) postoperatively. The experimental group exhibited a significant visual analog scale pain score during flexion at 24 hours postoperatively (P < .05), and it was not different at 72 hours postoperatively (P = .08). There was a significant difference in opioid consumption (P < .05), but there was no difference in the operation time (P = .24) or postoperative nausea/vomiting (P = .64) between the groups. CONCLUSION The efficacy of preoperative administration of selective COX-2 inhibitors to reduce postoperative pain and opioid consumption after TKA is validated.
