Abstract
Influenza imposes a significant disease burden on society and individuals annually, and influenza vaccination is considered a significant public health measure to prevent influenza and reduce influenza-related severe disease and death. The low influenza vaccination rate in China is partly due to certain factors affecting the willingness and behavior of individuals to receive them. Scientific research and targeted interventions on these factors can effectively improve the vaccination situation. Commonly used individual-level theoretical models for influenza vaccination behavior include the health belief model, protection motivation theory, and theory of planned behavior. This study reviews theoretical models commonly employed in researching influenza vaccination willingness and behavior. An overview of these practical applications and challenges models is presented to provide references for relevant research and intervention programs in China.

Abstract
Objective: Based on the diagnostic model established and validated by the machine learning algorithm, to investigate the value of seven tumor-associated autoantibodies (TAABs), namely anti-p53, PGP9.5, SOX2, GAGE7, GBU4-5, MAGEA1 and CAGE antibodies in the diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and to differentiate between NSCLC and benign lung nodules. Methods: This was a retrospective study of clinical cases. Model building queue: a total of 227 primary patients who underwent radical lung cancer surgery in the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University, from November 2018 to June 2021 were collected as the NSCLC group, and 120 cases of benign lung nodules, 122 cases of pneumonia and 120 healthy individuals were selected as the control groups. External validation queue: a total of 100 primary patients who underwent radical lung cancer surgery in the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University, from May 2022 to December 2022 were collected as the NSCLC group, and 36 cases of benign lung nodules, 32 cases of pneumonia and 44 healthy individuals were selected as the control groups. In addition, NSCLC was divided into early (stage 0-ⅠB) and mid-to-late (stage ⅡA-ⅢB) subgroups. The levels of 7-TAABs were detected by enzyme immunoassay, and serum concentrations of CEA and CYFRA21-1 were detected by electrochemiluminescence. Four machine learning algorithms, XGBoost, Lasso logistic regression, Naïve Bayes, and Support Vector Machine are used to establish classification models. And the best performance model was chosen based on evaluation metrics and a multi-indicator combination model was established. In addition, an online risk evaluation tool was generated to assist clinical applications. Results: Except for p53, the levels of rest six TAABs, CEA and CYFRA21-1 were significantly higher in the NSCLC group (P<0.05). Serum levels of anti-SOX2 [1.50 (0.60, 10.85) U/ml vs. 0.8 (0.20, 2.10) U/ml, Z=2.630, P<0.05] and MAGEA1 antibodies [0.20 (0.10, 0.43) U/ml vs. 0.10 (0.10, 0.20) U/ml, Z=2.289, P<0.05], CEA [3.13 (2.12, 5.64) ng/ml vs. 2.11 (1.25, 3.09) ng/ml, Z=3.970, P<0.05] and CYFRA21-1 [4.31(2.37, 7.14) ng/ml vs. 2.53(1.92, 3.48) ng/ml, Z=3.959, P<0.05] were significantly higher in patients with mid-to late-stage NSCLC than in early stages. XGBoost model was used to establish a multi-indicator combined detection model (after removing p53). 6-TAABs combined with CYFRA21-1 was the best combination model for the diagnosis of NSCLC and early NSCLC. The optimal diagnostic thresholds were 0.410, 0.701 and 0.744, and the AUC was 0.828, 0.757 and 0.741, respectively (NSCLC vs. control, NSCLC vs. benign lung nodules, early NSCLC vs. benign lung nodules) in model building queue, and the AUC was 0.760, 0.710 and 0.660, respectively (NSCLC vs. control, NSCLC vs. benign lung nodules, early NSCLC vs. benign lung nodules) in external validation queue. Conclusion: In the diagnosis of NSCLC, 6-TAABs is superior to that of traditional tumor markers CEA and CYFRA21-1, and can compensate for the shortcomings of traditional tumor markers. For the differential diagnosis of NSCLC and benign lung nodule, "6-TAABs+CYFRA21-1" is the most cost-effective combination, and plays an important role in prevention and screening for early lung cancer.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of standardized dust mite allergen subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) in children with allergic rhinitis (AR) during treatment. Methods: A total of 283 children with AR diagnosed with definite dust mite allergy and completed 2 to 3 years of SCIT who attended the Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, from August 2019 to October 2021 were included, including 205 males and 78 females, with a mean age of 10.8 years. The total nasal symptoms score (TNSS), symptom medication score (SMS), rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire (RQLQ) and visual analogue scale (VAS) before and after 2 to 3 years' treatment were recorded, and the differences before and after treatment were compared. Adverse reactions during SCIT were recorded to evaluate its safety. SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results: The overall effectiveness rate during SCIT in 283 children with AR was 89.4% (253/283). Compared with baseline, all symptom scores, medication scores and quality of life scores were significantly lower after 2 to 3 years of SCIT (all P<0.05). Further group comparisons showed positive efficacy in patients with different clinical characteristics, including age, gender, smoking status, family history of AR, symptom severity, mono-or poly-allergy, and second immunization, with no statistically significant differences between groups (all P>0.05). A total of 12 735 injections were administered during the SCIT, and a total of 213 (1.67%) injections of local adverse reactions occurred, mainly in the initial treatment phase, and the diameter of the local air mass was mostly 5 to 20 mm; 71 (0.56%) injections of systemic adverse reactions occurred, mainly in the initial treatment phase, and most of them were grade 1 reactions with no serious systemic adverse reaction such as shock. Conclusion: Standardized dust mite SCIT has a good safety profile and definite efficacy in treating AR children with different clinical characteristics. It can significantly improve all symptoms, reduce the use of symptomatic drugs and improve their quality of life.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 (ACC1) knockdown on the migration of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) KYSE-450 cell and underlying mechanism. Methods: Lentiviral transfection was conducted to establish sh-NC control cell and ACC1 knocking down cell (sh-ACC1). Human siRNA HSP27 and control were transfected by Lipo2000 to get si-HSP27 and si-NC. The selective acetyltransferase P300/CBP inhibitor C646 was used to inhibit histone acetylation and DMSO was used as vehicle control. Transwell assay was performed to detect cell migration. The expression of HSP27 mRNA was examined by reverse transcription-quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and the expressions of ACC1, H3K9ac, HSP27 and epithelial-mesenchymal transition-related proteins E-cadherin and Vimentin were detected by western blot. Results: The expression level of ACC1 in sh-NC group was higher than that in sh-ACC1 group (P<0.01). The number of cell migration in sh-NC group was (159.00±24.38), lower than (361.80±26.81) in sh-ACC1 group (P<0.01). The protein expression levels of E-cadherin and Vimentin in sh-NC group were statistically significant compared with sh-AAC1 group (P<0.05). The migrated cell number in sh-NC+ si-NC group was (189.20±16.02), lower than (371.60±38.40) in sh-ACC1+ si-NC group (P<0.01). The migrated cell number in sh-NC+ si-NC group was higher than that in sh-NC+ si-HSP27 group (152.40±24.30, P<0.01), and the migrated cell number in sh-ACC1+ si-NC group was higher than that in sh-ACC1+ si-HSP27 group (P<0.01). The protein expression levels of E-cadherin and Vimentin in sh-NC+ si-NC group were significantly different from those in sh-ACC1+ si-NC and sh-NC+ si-HSP27 groups (P<0.01). The protein expression levels of E-cadherin and Vimentin in sh-ACC1+ si-NC group were significantly different from those in sh-ACC1+ si-HSP27 group (P<0.01). After 24 h treatment with C646 at 20 μmmo/L, the migrated cell number in sh-NC+ DMSO group was (190.80±11.95), lower than (395.80±17.10) in sh-ACC1+ DMSO group (P<0.01). The migrated cell number in sh-NC+ DMSO group was lower than that in sh-NC+ C646 group (256.20±23.32, P<0.01). The migrated cell number in sh-ACC1+ DMSO group was higher than that in sh-ACC1+ C646 group (87.80±11.23, P<0.01). The protein expressions of H3K9ac, HSP27, E-cadherin and Vimentin in sh-NC+ DMSO group were significantly different from those in sh-ACC1+ DMSO group and sh-NC+ C646 group (P<0.01). The protein expression levels of H3K9ac, HSP27, E-cadherin and Vimentin in sh-ACC1+ DMSO group were significantly different from those in sh-ACC1+ C646 group (P<0.01). Conclusion: Knockdown of ACC1 promotes the migration of KYSE-450 cell by up-regulating HSP27 and increasing histone acetylation.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the association between muscle mass and quality of life in adults in Shaanxi adults. Methods: The data in this analysis were part of the baseline survey of the Regional Ethnic Cohort Study in Northwest China from June 2018 to May 2019 in Shaanxi Province. The participants' quality of life, including physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS), was assessed by the 12-Item Short Form Survey, and the Body Fat Determination System measured muscle mass. A logistic regression model with adjustment for confounding factors was established to analyze the association between muscle mass and quality of life in different genders. Further, sensitivity and subgroup analyses were conducted to explore its stability. Finally, a restricted cubic spline was employed to investigate the dose-response relationship between muscle mass and quality of life in different genders. Results: A total of 20 595 participants were included, with an average age of 55.0, and 33.4% were male. After controlling for potential confounders, compared with the Q1 group, the risk of low PCS was reduced by 20.6% (OR=0.794, 95%CI: 0.681-0.925) and the risk of low MCS was lower reduced by 20.1% (OR=0.799, 95%CI: 0.689-0.926) in female Q5 groups. Compared with the Q1 group, the risk of low PCS was reduced by 24.4% (OR=0.756, 95%CI: 0.644-0.888) in the male Q2 group. However, no significant association between muscle mass and MCS in males has been found. In females, restricted cubic spline analysis showed a significant linear dose-response relationship between muscle mass and PCS and MCS. Conclusions: There is a positive association between muscle mass and quality of life in Shaanxi adults, especially females. With the increase in muscle mass, the physical and mental functions of the population continue to improve.

Abstract
With the improvement of laparoscopic equipment and surgical technology,pancreatic surgery has entered the "minimally invasive era".However,the use of minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy in patients with pancreatic head cancer remains controversial.In recent years,China's pancreatic surgeons have been at the forefront of the world in terms of surgical technology,however,surgical philosophy, selection of indication,and perioperative management should be further stregthened. Additionally, the development of medical standards in various regions of China is seriously uneven,and minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy still needs to be further standardized and popularized.Through this article,the author discusses the development status of minimally invasive surgery for pancreatic head cancer and related hot topics with fellow surgeons,in order to further improve the standard diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer in China.

Abstract
This paper examined the history of snakes as a source of drugs from the Han to the Song Dynasties. Snake products, for medicinal purposes, were not widely used in the Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties out of worship and fear of snakes.The source of snake products taken for medical purposes might be partly because local people ate snakes in the South area. Palace snakes and pit viper products were taken as drugs in the Tang Dynasty for the treatment of leprosy and ulcers of the female external genitals. Zaocysdhumnades were seldom used as medicine because they were not recorded in medical documents in the Tang Dynasty, but only seen in some notes. They were widely used in medical practice in the late Tang and the early Song Dynasties and were formally recorded in medical documents for the diseases caused by Wind. Their effectiveness, rarity, high value and toxicity contraindication were repeatedly stressed while palace snakes and pit vipers were seldom mentioned and used.

Methods: A retrospective before-after self-control study was conducted. From January 2017 to February 2022, 37 patients with hypertrophic scar secondary to extensive burns who met the inclusion criteria were hospitalized in the Burn Rehabilitation Department of Guangdong Industrial Injury Rehabilitation Hospital, including 25 males and 12 females, aged 23-52 years. The patients were admitted to the hospital within 12 weeks after wound healing, and within one week after admission, rehabilitation therapists, occupational therapists, and tailors custom-made pressure products such as full-body pressure garment, pressure pants, vests, split finger gloves, split finger socks, hoods, and plastic collars, with the pressure at each part maintained at 2.67-4.00 kPa when wearing. Before the first treatment with pressure products (hereinafter referred to as before pressure treatment) and at 1 h of the first treatment with pressure products (hereinafter referred to as 1 h of pressure treatment), color Doppler ultrasonography was performed to check the pulse rate of the axillary artery, the lumen diameter, peak systolic velocity (PSV), and resistance index of the axillary artery and femoral artery on the left side, the lumen diameter, cross-sectional area, and average blood flow velocity of the axillary vein and femoral vein, and the mitral valve E peak, mitral valve A peak, tricuspid valve E peak, aortic valve PSV, and pulmonary valve PSV of the heart; an optical chromatographic skin detector was used to detect the red color, red pigment, and surface brightness of the scar on the back of the hand to reflect the filling and distribution of the scar microvessels. Data were statistically analyzed with paired sample t test. Results: Compared with those before pressure treatment, the PSV of the axillary artery of patients was significantly slowed down at 1 h of pressure treatment (t=55.42, P<0.01); the average blood flow velocity of the axillary vein was significantly accelerated (t=-60.50, P<0.01); the pulse rate, lumen diameter, and resistance index of the axillary artery, as well as the lumen diameter and cross-sectional area of the axillary vein did not change obviously (P>0.05); the average blood flow velocity of the femoral vein was significantly accelerated (t=-80.52, P<0.01); the lumen diameter, PSV, and resistance index of the femoral artery, as well as the lumen diameter and cross-sectional area of the femoral vein had no significant change (P>0.05); the mitral valve E peak and mitral valve A peak of the heart decreased significantly (with t values of 10.71 and 21.96, respectively, P<0.01); the tricuspid valve E peak of the heart increased significantly (t=7.57, P<0.01); the PSV of the aortic valve and pulmonary valve of the heart did not change obviously (P>0.05). At 1 h of pressure treatment, the red color and red pigment values of the scar on the back of the hand of patients were 15.3±1.1 and 16.8±1.2, respectively, which were significantly lower than 24.5±1.3 and 23.8±1.2 before pressure treatment (with t values of 8.32 and 8.04, respectively, P<0.01). The brightness value of the scar surface on the back of the hand of patients at 1 h of pressure treatment was similar to that before pressure treatment (P>0.05). Conclusions: After pressure treatment for the hypertrophic scar in patients secondary to extensive burn, the average blood flow velocity of the axillary vein and femoral vein in patients are obviously accelerated, the PSV of the axillary artery is significantly slowed down, the peak values of mitral valve E and mitral valve A of the heart are significantly decreased, and the tricuspid valve E peak is significantly increased. These hemodynamic changes may be related to the reduction of microvascular blood flow in the local area of scar after systemic pressure treatment.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the effect of growth arrest-specific5 (GAS5) inhibition on the proliferation, colony formation, invasion, migration andepithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT), cancer cell stem of HCT-116 and its mechanism. Methods: The colorectal carcinoma (CRC) cell HCT116 was divided into blank control, negative control (NC), si-GAS5 and si-GAS5+ miR-21 inhibitor groups. The quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to test the expressions of miR-21 and GAS5 at 48 h after transfection. The binding site of GAS5 and miR-21 was determined by luciferase reporter array. Cell proliferation ability was detected by CCK-8 assay. Cell colony ability was detected by colony formation assay. Cell invasion and migration abilities were detected by Transwell assay. Cell cycle and apoptosis were examined by flow cytometer (FCM). The protein levels of EMT associated factors including Snail, N-cadherin, vimentin, E-cadherin, stem cell related factors including CD44, SOX2, Oct2, and PTEN/Akt signal pathway associated factors were examined by western blotting. Results: The expression levels of miR-21 in blank, NC, si-GAS5 group were 1.00±0.10, 1.00±0.10, 1.80±0.20, the absorbance values were 0.51±0.02, 0.50±0.01 and 0.65±0.01, the cell clones were 90±4, 91±5, 200±8, the invaded cells were 118±3, 119±3, 150±4, the migrated cells were 110±2, 108±2, 127±2, the cell ratios in G(1) phase were (49.3±2.1)%, (50.1±2.0)% and (42.2±1.1)%, the cell ratios in S phase were (19.2±1.2)%, (20.2±1.1)% and (28.3±2.2)%, the cell apoptotic ratios were (14.4±2.2)%, (14.5±2.1)% and (7.2±1.3)%. These results indicated that inhibition of GAS5 up regulated the expression level of miR-21, promoted cell proliferation, invasion and migration, decreased G(1)-phase cells and increased S-phase cells, and suppressed cell apoptosis (P<0.05). Moreover, inhibition of GAS5 up regulated the expressions of Snail, N-cadherin, vimentin, Sox2, CD44, Oct2 and p-Akt in HCT-116 cells (P<0.05), while down regulated the expressions of E-cadherin and PTEN (P<0.05). Inhibition of miR-21 reversed the impact of GAS5 knockdown on PTEN/Akt signaling pathway (P<0.05). Conclusion: GAS5 can act as a competing endogenous RNA for miR-21, and down regulation of GAS5 can promote the development of CRC by activating the miR-21/PTEN/Akt signaling pathway and promoting the acquisition of EMT and tumor cell stemness.

Abstract
Chiral materials have attracted significant research interests as they exhibit intriguing physical properties, such as chiral optical response, spin-momentum locking, and chiral induced spin selectivity. Recently, layered transition metal dichalcogenide 1T-TaS_{2} has been found to host a chiral charge density wave (CDW) order. Nevertheless, the physical consequences of the chiral order, for example, in electronic structures and the optical properties, are yet to be explored. Here, we report the spectroscopic visualization of an emergent chiral electronic band structure in the CDW phase, characterized by windmill-shaped Fermi surfaces. We uncover a remarkable chirality-dependent circularly polarized Raman response due to the salient in-plane chiral symmetry of CDW, although the ordinary circular dichroism vanishes. Chiral Fermi surfaces and anomalous Raman responses coincide with the CDW transition, proving their lattice origin. Our Letter paves a path to manipulate the chiral electronic and optical properties in two-dimensional materials and explore applications in polarization optics and spintronics.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the expression of miR-17-5p in the plasma of patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and its role in tumorigenesis and development. Methods: Patients diagnosed with unidentified monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) or MM in Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University from April 2013 to April 2018 were enrolled, as well as 20 healthy volunteers. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression levels of miR-17-5p in plasma circulation and bone marrow mononuclear cells. There were 22 cases with newly diagnosed MM (NDMM), 11 cases with complete remission MM (CRMM) and 59 case with recurrent refractory MM (RRMM). The expression levels of miR-17-5p in each group were analyzed. The correlation analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between plasma miR-17-5p and the proportion of serum M protein and bone marrow plasma cells in patients with untreated multiple myeloma. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the possibility of plasma miR-17-5p as a molecular marker related to MM diagnosis. After over expression or knockdown of miR-17-5p expression, CCK-8 method was used to detect the effect of miR-17-5p on the proliferation of MM cell line. The effect of miR-17-5p on the proliferation of MM cells was detected in nude mice subcutaneous tumorigenesis experiment. Results: The expression of miR-17-5p in bone marrow mononuclear cells in NDMM and RRMM group were higher than those in healthy volunteers [1.37 (0.47, 4.87), 2.68 (1.02, 5.02) vs 1.00 (1.00, 1.00), all P<0.05], and the expression levels of miR-17-5p in plasma were also higher than those in healthy control group [1.85 (0.92, 3.51), 2.79 (1.22, 5.04) vs 1.00 (1.00, 1.00), all P<0.05]. The expression of miR-17-5p in MM cell lines such as KMS-11, RPMI-8226, H929, MM-1R, U266B1 were higher than that in bone marrow mononuclear cells of healthy control group (3.96±0.68, 1.58±0.32, 3.51±0.55, 5.08±0.76, 3.22±0.75 vs 1.00±0, all P<0.05) ; Plasma miR-17-5p was positively correlated with the ratio of serum M protein and bone marrow plasma cells (r=0.50, P<0.05; r=0.60, P<0.01). ROC curve showed that the specificity was 0.591 and the sensitivity was 0.900 of plasma miR-17-5p as a molecular marker related to diagnosis (area under ROC curve=0.74, cut-off value: 0.491). CCK-8 results showed that over expression of miR-17-5p increased the proliferation of RPMI-8226 and NCI-H929 cell lines at 72 hours compared with the control group (1.37±0.11 vs 1.07±0.09, 2.14±0.09 vs 1.82±0.11, both P<0.05), and low expression of miR-17-5p reduced the proliferation of NCI-H929 and MM-1R cell lines at 72 hours compared with the control group (1.38±0.09 vs 1.83±0.11, 1.45±0.10 vs 1.73±0.09, both P<0.05). The subcutaneous tumorigenesis experiment in nude mice showed that the tumor volume of miR-17-5p over expression group was larger than that of the control group [(1 865±181) vs (1 389±227) mm3, P<0.05], and the tumor volume of miR-17-5p low expression group was smaller than that of the control group [ (1 006±171) vs (1 389±227) mm3, P<0.05]. Conclusion: miR-17-5p may play an oncogene role in MM cell lines as a plasma molecular marker related to the development of MM disease.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and tuberculosis (TB) are two respiratory infectious diseases with a high incidence of transmission, mainly via respiratory droplets and both can weaken the immune system and lower the number of CD4+T cells in patients. COVID-19 can occur before, at the same time or after the diagnosis of TB. Patients with pulmonary TB are more likely to have co-infection when they have a history of epidemiological exposure to COVID-19. At present, many cases of nosocomial infection of COVID-19 caused by ineffective prevention and control measures in tuberculosis hospitals have been reported successively at domestic and overseas. Therefore, it is urgent to strengthen the prevention and control of nosocomial infections in tuberculosis hospitals. The superposition of the two diseases can lead to a worsening prognosis, aggravating the patient's condition and making treatment more difficult. In addition, in the context of the new coronavirus epidemic, early recognition of co-infection with new coronavirus should be made when TB patients in chest hospitals present with symptoms such as aggregated fever or progressive disease. At the same time, we should focus on identifying the clinical and imaging manifestations of TB and COVID-19 co-infection. At present, research on COVID-19 complicated with pulmonary TB is scarce, and there are disputes on many aspects. As a country with a high prevalence of tuberculosis, it is of great practical significance to identify the clinical characteristics, outcomes, and treatment of the two infectious diseases in China.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the application of cortical bone trajectory screw (CBTS) and sacral alar screw (SAS) internal fixation in the treatment of lumbar adjacent segment degeneration (ASD) and evaluate its clinical effect. Methods: Data of 24 patients who were diagnosed with ASD and treated by CBTS or SAS in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. There were 14 males and 10 females with a mean age of (67.9±8.2) years. The patients were followed-up for (2.6±0.4) years. Perioperative parameters including operation time, intraoperative blood loss and postoperative time on the ground were counted. All patients were followed-up for at least 2 years. Visual analogue scale (VAS) and the Oswestry disability index (ODI) were compared between pre-operation and at the last follow-up. The internal fixation-related complications, pseudarthrosis and adjacent re-degeneration were evaluated in the follow-up. Results: There were 14 proximal ASD patients, 8 distal ASD patients, 1 both ends ASD patient and 1 ASD patient in between the fusion surgeries. Bone mineral density (BMD) T score of the adjacent vertebrae was -1.98±0.91 on average. The ASD patients were re-operated with CBTS and SAS internal fixation technique. A small incision was made in the revision surgery and the original fixation was not completely cut open and removed. The mean operation time was (125±36) min, mean blood loss was (85±33) ml. The postoperative ambulation time was (3.1±1.9) days, and the hospitalization time was (9.0±2.6) days. Before the operation, the average VAS (back pain) score was 5.2±1.0, the average of VAS (leg pain) score was 6.8±1.9 and ODI was 56.6%±12.8%. VAS score was reduced to 1.4±0.6 (waist pain) and 0.9±0.4 (leg pain). ODI was improved to 13.8%±6.3%. All the difference between preoperative and the last follow-up was statically significant (all P<0.01). No internal fixation failure, pseudarthrosis and adjacent re-degeneration were observed in the final follow-up. Conclusion: The application of CBTS and SAS internal fixation techniques in the surgical treatment of lumbar ASD has the advantages of less trauma, faster postoperative recovery, reliable internal fixation, and fewer complications, especially in patients with low bone mineral density.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the feasibility of applying machine-learning hierarchical clustering algorithm to waveform-type automatic classification and diagnosis in congenital nystagmus (CN). Methods: A retrospective case series study. A total of 90 patients (90 eyes) diagnosed with CN at Tianjin Eye Hospital from December 2018 to September 2019 were included in the study, including 67 males and 23 females, aged (12±9) years old. Eye movement waveforms were recorded with the video eye tracker in all patients. Analyses with unsupervised machine-learning hierarchical clustering algorithm were performed on the normalized eye movement waveforms. The visualized clustering results were obtained for further waveform naming. The occurrence rate of each waveform type was calculated, and the correlation between the proportion of each waveform type and the visual function of CN patients was analyzed. Independent sample t-test and Pearson correlation analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results: The 46 620 cycles of validated waveforms from the 90 CN patients were categorized into 7 types of waveforms through machine-learning hierarchical clustering algorithm, named type Ⅰ, type Ⅱ, type Ⅲ, and types Ⅳ1-4, respectively. In the 46 620 cycles of eye movement waveforms from the 90 patients with CN, there were 14 259 cycles of type Ⅰ (30.59%), 11 498 cycles of type Ⅱ (24.66%), 4 083 cycles of type Ⅲ (8.76%), 5 430 cycles of type Ⅳ1 (11.65%), 3 451 cycles of type Ⅳ2 (7.40%), 3 015 cycles of type Ⅳ3 (6.47%), 2 663 cycles of type Ⅳ4 (5.71%) and 2 221 cycles of unclassified waveforms (4.76%). The waveforms of types Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ corresponded to the 3 basic CN eye movement waveforms (velocity-increasing jerk waveform, velocity-decreasing jerk waveform and pendular waveform) described in the textbooks, and the waveforms of types Ⅳ1-4 were complex waveforms. The proportions of patients with the 7 types of waveforms were 78.89% (71 cases), 41.11% (37 cases), 17.78% (16 cases), 20.00% (18 cases), 7.78% (7 cases), 15.56% (14 cases) and 11.11% (10 cases), respectively. According to the results of automatic classification, 38 (42.22%) CN patients presented with only one type of waveforms, and the remaining 52 (57.78%) CN patients presented with two or more types of waveforms, including 23 (25.56%) patients with 3 or more types of waveforms and 5 (5.56%) patients with 4 types of waveforms. The proportions of type Ⅰ component were significantly correlated with the patients' best corrected visual acuities (BCVAs;logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution) (r=-0.39; P<0.01), and there was no relationship between the proportions of type Ⅱ component and the patients' BCVAs (P>0.05). The BCVAs of the patients with type Ⅰ as the dominant component were better than those of the patients with type Ⅱ as the dominant component, with statistically significant difference (0.19±0.14 vs. 0.45±0.37;t=2.77; P<0.05). Conclusion: Machine-learning hierarchical clustering algorithm can be used for waveform-type automatic classification and discrimination in CN and provide an auxiliary method for the precise diagnosis and evaluation of the disease.

Abstract
Objective: To verify the safety and feasibility of sacral alar screw fixation and fusion surgery in lumbosacral area. Methods: The clinical and radiological data of patients receiving L5/S1 single-level cortical bone trajectory screw combined with sacral alar screw decompression fixation and fusion in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital due to lumbar spinal stenosis from January 2019 to January 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical data included operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage, pain and function scores during follow-up. The radiological data included preoperative and postoperative follow-up X-rays and three-dimensional reconstruction of lumbar spine CT. The fusion status and complication of internal fixation, such as screw loosening and fixation failure were evaluated by the radiological examination. Results: According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 16 patients (7 males and 9 females) were included, with an average age of (69.6±5.2) years. The patients were followed-up for (16.2±1.7) months. The average operation duration was (144±21) min, the intraoperative blood loss was (103±20) ml, and the postoperative drainage was (80±34) ml. The patient's low back pain visual analogue scale (VAS) score was 6.8±1.0 before surgery, and it was improved to 0.9±0.7 at the last follow-up; leg pain VAS score was 6.1±0.9 before the operation and it improved to 0.9±0.7 at the last follow-up; Oswestry disability index (ODI) function score was 66.2%±8.0% before the surgery and it decreased to 26.6%±7.2% at the last follow-up. No neurological complications, surgical site infection, screw loosening, internal fixation failure or cage displacement were observed during the follow-up. The fusion rate was 68.8% (11/16) at 6 months post operation. Conclusion: It is safe, feasible and effective to apply cortical screws combined with sacral alar screws in short-segment decompression, fixation and fusion surgery on the lumbosacral region to treat lumbosacral spinal stenosis.

Abstract
For a long time, lumbar pedicle screw fixation and fusion has been regarded as the gold standard for the treatment of the lumbar spine degenerative diseases. However, in patients with osteoporosis, pedicle screw fixation often fails to obtain long-term satisfactory. In recent years, the emergence of cortical bone trajectory screw has become an alternative option for dealing with these problems. With the development of clinical and basic research, scholars have found that cortical bone screw internal fixation can help improve fixation strength, reduce surgical trauma, and accelerate postoperative recovery. Based on the current evidence-based research and clinical application experience, this article analyzes the research hotspots of cortical bone screws, introduces the experience and pitfalls in clinical practice, and provides references for colleagues.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the degenerative changes of adjacent segments after posterior lumbar fusion surgery using cortical bone trajectory (CBT) screws and pedicle screws (PS) in lumbar spinal degenerative disease. Methods: According to certain inclusion and exclusion criteria, prospective non-randomized study on cases of the single-segment lumbar spinal fusion surgery using cortical bone trajectory screws fixation and pedicle screws fixation in Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital from January 2015 to February 2016 was performed. The intervertebral space height (ISH), foramen height (FH), foramen width (FW), cephalad adjacent segment (CAS) and intervertebral disc degeneration grades at MRI scans were measured before surgery and during follow-up. Clinical symptoms were evaluated by Oswestry Dysfunction Index (ODI) score and pain visual analogue scale (VAS) before and during the follow-up. Radiologic adjacent segment degeneration (R-ASD) and symptomatic adjacent segment disease (S-ASD) patients were diagnosed during the follow-up. Paired sample t test was performed when data were compared before surgery and during follow-up. Results: A total of 69 patients were included in the study, 33 in the CBT group (male/female, 15/18), with an average age of (65±11) years, and 36 in the PS group (male/female, 17/19), with an average age of (64±10) years. The follow-up time was no less than 36 months. At the last follow-up, the ISH of the adjacent segments in the CBT group were not statistically different from that before surgery; the ISH of the adjacent segments in the PS group were significantly reduced compared with that before surgery (t=6.78, P<0.05). The loss of ISH, FH, and FW in the adjacent segments in the CBT group were smaller than those in the PS group, and the differences were statistically significant. During follow-up, 4 cases (12.1%) of R-ASD and no S-ASD were found in the CBT group, while 12 cases (33.3%) of R-ASD appeared in the PS group, which was significantly higher than that in the CBT group (χ(2)=4.35, P=0.04). According to MRI, the adjacent discs of PS group had significantly more severe degeneration at the last follow-up than the CBT group (Z=-2.14, P=0.03). Conclusions: Compared with the PS fixation fusion, the CBT screw fixation can effectively reduce the occurrence of adjacent segment degeneration.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathologic features, treatment, and prognosis in patients with Castleman disease (CD) . Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathologic data of 59 patients for whom a diagnosis of Castleman disease was confirmed using pathological examination from October 2011 to October 2019 at the Henan Cancer Hospital. The patients were divided into the following two groups as per the following clinical classifications: unicentric CD (UCD, n=47) and multicentric CD (MCD, n=12) . Data on clinical manifestations, laboratory findings, treatment, and prognosis were analyzed. Results: There was no significant difference in the median age and the ratio of male to female between the UCD and MCD. UCD was characterized by asymptomatic enlargement of the single lymph node. The main pathological type was hyaline vascular histopathology (83.0%) . Of these, 44 patients chose surgical resection, and their prognosis was good. Treatment. MCD was characterized by multiple enlarged superficial and/or deep lymph nodes with B symptoms, weakness, and hepatosplenomegaly. Anemia, hypoproteinemia, and globulin level were increased on laboratory examinations. Plasmacyte histopathology was the main pathological type and was present in about 50.0% of the subjects. Only chemotherapy was performed for these MCD patients, followed by chemotherapy or chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy, and the efficient was 58.3% (7/12) . Conclusions: UCD, characterized by asymptomatic enlargement of the single lymph node, shows good postoperative prognosis. MCD has relatively complex clinical manifestations and poor prognosis, and optimal treatment is yet to be established.

Abstract
Objective: By analyzed the transmission patterns of 4 out of the 51 COVID-19 cluster cases in Shaanxi province to provide evidences for the COVID-19 control and prevention. Methods: The epidemiological data of RT-PCR test-confirmed COVID-19 cases were collected. Transmission chain was drawn and the transmission process was analyzed. Results: Cluster case 1 contained 13 cases and was caused by a family of 5 who traveled by car to Wuhan and returned to Shaanxi. Cluster case 2 had 5cases and caused by initial patient who participated family get-together right after back from Wuhan while under incubation period. Cluster case 3 contained 10 cases and could be defined as nosocomial infection. Cluster case 4 contained 4 cases and occurred in work place. Conclusion: Higher contact frequency and smaller places were more likely to cause a small-scale COVID-19 cluster outbreak, with potential longer incubation period. COVID-19 control strategies should turn the attention to infection prevention and control in crowded places, management of enterprise resumption and prevention of nosocomial infection.

Abstract
The double excitation multi-stability and Shilnikov-type multi-pulse jumping chaotic vibrations are analyzed for the bistable asymmetric laminated composite square panel under foundation force for the first time. Based on the extended new high-dimensional Melnikov function, the explicit sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence of the Shilnikov-type multi-pulse jumping homoclinic orbits and chaotic vibrations in the bistable asymmetric laminated composite square panel, which implies that multi-pulse jumping chaotic vibrations may occur in the sense of Smale horseshoes. The extended new high-dimensional Melnikov function gives the parameters domain of the intersection for the homoclinic orbits, which illustrates the relationship among the coefficients of damping, parametric, and external excitations. Numerical simulations including the bifurcation diagrams, largest Lyapunov exponents, phase portraits, waveforms, and Poincaré sections are utilized to study the double excitation multi-pulse jumping and metastable chaotic vibrations and dynamic snap-through phenomena. The numerical results demonstrate that double excitation Shilinikov multi-pulse jumping chaotic and small metastable chaotic vibrations coexist in the bistable asymmetric laminated composite square panel. It is found that the external excitation changes the complexity of the chaos, while the parameter excitation changes the type of chaos. It is verified that the bistable asymmetric laminated composite square panel with small damping is easier to produce double excitation Shilinikov multi-pulse jumping chaotic vibrations.

Abstract
Objective: To Summarize the experience of pump-controlled retrograde trial off (PCRTO) in the process of veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) withdrawal in adult patients. Methods: Adult patients who received ECMO assistance in Intensive Care Unit for Cardiac Surgery from March to July 2019 were collected. According to our strategies, PCRTO was used if the patients can wean from VA-ECMO and hemodynamic indexes were recorded during the process. The statistics data was collected, including the 48 hours survival rate, ECMO re-assistance rate, thrombus complications, Intensive Care Unit (ICU) stay time and hospital stay time after weaning from VA-ECMO. The patients who failed in the test were continued to be assisted by ECMO. Results: There were 46 patients assisted by VA-ECMO in our center. In total, 21 adults who met the offline test standard underwent 26 PCRTOs, including 10 male adults (47.6%), with an age of 65 (55, 68) years old. Eighteen adults passed the withdrawal test. No new thrombus was found in the arteriovenous ultrasound of the lower extremity after weaning from ECMO, and no pulmonary embolism was found in the chest X-ray. The success rate of weaning from ECMO was 69.23%(18/26). The D-dimer decreased [584(348,2 107)μg/L vs 1 440(631,2 916)μg/L, P=0.014] and the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) increased (51.4%±8.5% vs 46.9%±10.6%, P=0.013) on the next day after weaning. There were significant differences in heart rate (HR), central venous pressure (CVP), oxygenation index and lactate (Lac) during the PCRTO in the group which involved the cases of the 8 failed experiments (all P<0.05). Compared with the failure group, there were significant differences in age, blood flow rate, CVP before the test, HR, pulse oxygen saturation(SpO(2)), CVP, Lac and oxygenation index after the test, and the variations of SpO(2), CVP and Lac. Conclusion: PCRTO is a simple, reversible, safe and effective weaning method. It can be used in the process of VA-ECMO withdrawal in adult patients.

Abstract
Poly(vinylidene difluoride) (PVDF) and its copolymers as the polymers with the highest piezoelectric coefficient have been widely used as sensors and generators. However, their relatively low performances limit their applications in some harsh environments. In this work, piezoelectric poly(vinylidene-trifluoroethylene) P(VDF-TrFE) matrices with different amounts of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) were prepared by a low temperature solvent evaporation method and thermal poling. The morphology, surface performance, crystalline phase, and piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties of the nanocomposites were investigated and the influence of POSS on these performances was studied. POSS had good compatibility with P(VDF-TrFE) and did not affect the crystalline phase formation of the matrix. The composites presented good piezoelectric properties. Piezo- and triboelectric nanogenerators were designed and fabricated. The voltage and current outputs were analyzed and the polarization effect was evaluated. The average output voltage and the current density of the matrix were 3 V and 0.5 μA cm−2 when subjected to a force of 38 N on an area of 1 cm2. The mechanical properties of P(VDF-TrFE)/POSS nanocomposites were also studied by the nanoindentation test. The hardness and modulus of samples increased 20% and 17% with a low addition of POSS. Atomic oxygen erosion properties of the composites were numerically simulated by the Monte Carlo method. The erosion cavity shape and depth were compared and studied. The influence of POSS addition on the P(VDF-TrFE) matrix and the associated reinforcing mechanism were analyzed. Poly(vinylidene difluoride) (PVDF) and its copolymers as the polymers with the highest piezoelectric coefficient have been widely used as sensors and generators.![]()

Abstract
Objective: To determine the impact of growing rods (GR) technique on cervical alignment in early-onset scoliosis (EOS) through the change of cervical alignment parameters after the GR surgery. Methods: Total of 24 consecutive EOS patients treated in Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital from 2009 to 2018 were retrospectively reviewed (17 males and 7 females). Cervical lordosis, T(1) slope and C(2-7) sagittal vertical axis (C(2-7)SVA), thoracic/lumbar Cobb angle, thoracic kyphosis (TK), global kyphosis Cobb angle, SVA were included in radiographic data in the full spinal standing X-ray before and post operation and at the last follow-up. Based on clinical data, including the upper instrumented vertebra (UIV), proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) and the number of GR, patients were divided into different groups for statistical analysis. Logistic regression analysis was used to find the independent risk factors of the abnormality of C(2-7)SVA. Results: All patients received at least one time of distraction operation, the mean follow-up was (35±14) months. The C(2-7) Cobb angle increased from 17°±11° to 18°±9° and T(1) slope changed from 28°±13° to 28°±11° and C(2-7)SVA changed from (17±11) mm to (16±10) mm after the operation, but no significant differences were found in those indexes before and after the operation (t=-1.15, 0.14, 0.55, all P>0.05). At the last follow-up after GR technique, the C(2-7) Cobb angle, T(1) slope angle and C(2-7)SVA significantly increased when compared with those before the operation (t=-7.60, -4.08, -2.46, all P<0.05). The △C(2-7) Cobb angle and △T(1) slope angle PJK group was both more significant than those in non-PJK group (t=3.50, 3.25, both P<0.05); while there was no significant difference in the △C(2-7) Cobb angle and △T(1) slope angle when the choice of UIV and the number of GD were taken into account (t=-1.02, -1.61, -0.67, 0.31, all P>0.05). The occurrence of PJK was identified as an independent risk factor for the abnormality of C(2-7)SVA during the GR surgery with logistic regression analysis(OR=11.57, 95%CI: 1.49-91.54, P<0.05). Conclusions: When used for EOS to correct deformity, GR surgery will increase the cervical lordosis and T(1) slope angle of EOS patients. More attention should be paid to the cervical sagittal alignment and cervical sagittal imbalance in EOS patients with PJK.

Abstract
Objective: To understand the incidence trend and epidemiological characteristics of COVID-19 in Shaanxi province. Methods: The incidence data of COVID-19 reported in Shaanxi as of 22 February, 2020 were collected for an epidemiological descriptive analysis. Results: A total of 245 confirmed cases of COVID-19 were reported in Shaanxi. Most cases were mild (87.76%). As time passed, the areas where confirmed cases were reported continued to increase. The case number in Xi'an was highest, accounting for nearly half of the total reported cases in the province. The epidemic pattern in Shaanxi had gradually shifted from imported case pattern to local case pattern, and the transmission of local cases was mainly based on family cluster transmission. The confirmed cases from different sources had caused the secondary transmission in Shaanxi. After February 7, the number of reported cases began to fluctuate and decrease stably, indicating a decrease-to-zero period. Conclusions: At present, the overall epidemic of COVID-19 in Shaanxi has gradually been mitigated. However, considering the approaching of return to work and study and the increasing of imported cases from other countries, the prevention and control of COVIS-19 in Shaanxi will face new challenges.

Abstract
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains to be a serious public health problem in China. There used to be a high prevalence of HBV infection in China, which resulted in a large number of HBV susceptible and post-infected population. Single anti-HBc positive usually indicates post HBV infection and its prevalence is particularly high among people over 40 years old, some of whom may be occult hepatitis B virus infection (OBI). The clinical diagnosis of OBI is difficult and easily missed. Since OBI may cause chronic liver disease progression and even lead to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma eventually, and more importantly, patients with OBI may leed to HBV reactivation when the immune function decreases or immunosuppressive therapy is performed, the accurate identify of OBI is of particular importance. Moreover, OBI is the potential source of HBV infection, which may transmit through blood transfusion, organ transplantation and mother-to-child transmission. In view of this situation, we reviewed the mechanism, prevalence and definition of OBI, and proposed a determination system for replication-competent HBV DNA based on our understanding of the updated OBI definition. It is expected to be beneficial for OBI diagnosis, treatment and management.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of cortical screw fixation in posterior lumbar spine fixation with cortical bone trajectory (CBT) fixation or pedicle screw (PS) fixation in posterior lumbar fusion. Methods: It was a prospective study and CBT or PS for the treatment of lumbar disease from August 2015 to August 2017 in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital were analyzed. There were 53 males and 51 females, aged 56-78 years (mean age, (67±5) years). The patient's gender, age, operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative bleeding, postoperative hospital stay, and postoperative patient satisfaction were collected. The Oswestry disability index (ODI) and visual analogue scale (VAS) of back pain were used to evaluate preoperative and half-year, one-year and two-year postoperative function and quality of life. Complications such as wound infection, cage displacement, screw extraction and fixation fracture were compared between the two groups. The data of normal distribution were compared with Student t test between the two groups. Results: There was no significant difference in the operation time between the CBT group (n=50) and the PS group (n=54) ((223±17) min vs (221±16) min, t=0.74, P=0.46). The intraoperative blood loss and wound drainage volume were significantly lower in the CBT group than those in the PS screw group (t=-24.20, -57.62, both P<0.05). The average length of hospital stay in the CBT group was significantly shorter than that in the PS group (t=-7.65, P=0.00). Patients with CBT screws had better postoperative satisfaction than patients in PS group (91±6 vs 86±7, t=3.89, P=0.00). The ODI score in the CBT group was significantly lower than that in the PD screw group half a year after the operation (3.9±1.9 vs 5.8±3.1, t=-3.66, P=0.00). The VAS and ODI scores in the CBT group were significantly lower than those in the PS group 1 year after the surgery (t=-3.03, -4.09, both P<0.05). There was no significant differences in wound infection, cage displacement, screw extraction and fixation fracture between the two groups. Conclusion: CBT screw technique is minimally invasive, with short operation time, less intraoperative blood loss, rapid postoperative recovery and low complications. It can be effectively used in posterior lumbar cone fusion.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the role of histone deacetylases(HDAC) in the pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis(IPF) and cryptogenic organizing pneumonia(COP). Methods: Fifteen IPF patients [14 males and 1female, age 40-73 years, mean age (59±8) years] and 15 COP patients [5 males and 10 females, age 41-71 years, mean age (59±8) years] from Peking Union Medical College Hospital were recruited from March 2018 to October 2018. Fifteen healthy donors[4 males and 11females, age 43-70 years, mean age (58±6) years] were enrolled as controls. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated by density gradient centrifugation. The nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins were extracted by Nuclear Extraction Kit. HDAC activity was measured by fluorimetric method. The relations between HDAC activity and clinical parameters were analyzed with SPSS. Results: The HDAC activity of cytoplasmic protein and nuclear protein from patients with IPF were (724±216) nmol/L and (2 309±708) nmol/L, which were higher than that of health controls (409±105) nmol/L and (1 572±611) nmol/L (P<0.01 for both). So as to the HDAC activity of cytoplasmic protein and nuclear protein from patients with COP which were (718±245) nmol/L and (3 310±1 005) nmol/L (P<0.01 for both).The HDAC activity of nuclear protein from COP patients was higher than that from IPF patients (Z=-2.840, P=0.005). The HDAC activity of nuclear protein was negatively correlated with FEV(1) and D(L)CO in IPF patients (r=-0.574, P=0.025; r=-0.583, P=0.029), and negatively correlated with FVC and TLC in COP patients(r=-0.846, P=0.016; r=-0.900, P=0.015). Conclusion: HDAC may be involved in the pathogenesis of COP and IPF.

Abstract
With the growing concerns on global climate change and food security, low carbon agriculture in food production attracts more attention. Low carbon agriculture needs to balance higher-level crop yields and lower greenhouse gas emission in production process. Improving nitrogen mana-gement may help mitigate greenhouse gas emission and achieve stable or higher crop yields in crop production systems. In this study, we investigated the effects of nitrogen application rates (150, 225, 300 kg N·hm-2) on the carbon footprint of spring maize-late rice rotation system in paddy field using the life cycle assessment. The results showed that greenhouse gas emission and carbon footprint increased with the nitrogen fertilizer application rates in both crops. Nitrogen fertilizer was the most important contributor to carbon footprint of spring maize ecosystem, accounting for 36.2%-50.2%. Methane emission increased with nitrogen fertilizer input and contributed the most to the carbon footprint of late rice production, accounting for 42.8%-48.0%. When the nitrogen application rate was reduced by 25% (225 kg N·hm-2) and 50% (150 kg N·hm-2), greenhouse gas emission of maize production decreased by 21.9% and 44.3%, and the carbon footprint decreased by 20.3% and 39.1%, respectively. Meanwhile, the greenhouse gas emissions of late rice decreased by 12.3% and 20.4%, and the carbon footprint of late rice decreased by 13.7% and 16.7%, respectively. The reduction of nitrogen fertilizer rate had no significant effect on maize yield, with the treatment of 225 kg N·hm-2 rate holding the highest yield in late rice ecosystem. The treatment of 150 kg N·hm-2 rate in spring maize production and 225 kg N·hm-2 rate in late rice production was the sustainable N fertilizer application rate for achieving high grain yield and reducing the carbon footprint in crop system.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the prognosis and surgical complication of the recanalization treatments for internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion by using one-step hybrid carotid endarterectomy and endovascular surgery. Methods: Retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data and follow-up data of 22 patients with occluded ICA treated by one-step hybrid surgery. Difference in Barthel score and occurrence of ischemic stroke were compared with surgical group and conventional group which was treated by oral taking anti-platelet drugs. Further, the complications were analyzed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the surgery. Results: The difference in ischemic event rate and Barthel scores improvement between the two groups were significant. Occlusive ICAs in 19 cases were recanalized successfully. The possibility of brain hyperperfusion related to the surgery was 10.5% (2/19) while the possibility of carotid artery cavernous fistula was 9.1% (2/22). We also observed rare dissecting ICA caused by the treatment (4.5%) and distal restenosis (5.3%). Conclusions: One-step hybrid carotid endarterectomy and endovascular surgery could help recanalize the ICA, improve the blood supply and improve the prognosis. It's a safe and effective treatment for ICA occlusion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Emergence delirium is a common complication in children, especially in preschool children undergoing ophthalmic surgery. The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of visual preconditioning (application of an eyepatch over the eye to be operated for ≥3 h the day before surgery) on emergence delirium after ophthalmic surgery under sevoflurane anaesthesia. METHODS One hundred and seventy-nine children undergoing unilateral cataract surgery, aged 3-7 yr, were involved in this prospective, blinded, randomised study. Subjects were randomised to receive visual preconditioning (Group P, n=89) or to receive programmed explanation the day before surgery (Group C, n=90). The primary outcome was incidence of emergence delirium evaluated by the paediatric anaesthesia emergence delirium (PAED) scale. The secondary outcomes included emergence time and post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU) stay time. RESULTS Children in Group P had a significantly lower incidence of emergence delirium than those in Group C [16.9% vs 44.4%, odds ratio (OR) 4.0, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.0 to 8.0]. The maximal PAED score was lower in Group P than in Group C [4 (0-20) vs 9 (0-20), median difference -3.0, 95% CI -5.0 to -1.0]. Visual preconditioning prolonged emergence time (P<0.001) and PACU stay time (P=0.002). CONCLUSION Visual disturbance contributes to emergence delirium in preschool children undergoing ophthalmic surgery with sevoflurane, and prophylactic eyepatch treatment can reduce emergence delirium.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the expression of interleukin(IL)-35 protein and gene in peripheral blood of patients with sarcoidosis and its clinical significance. Methods: Peripheral blood samples from 98 patients with sarcoidosis and 98 healthy volunteers were collected at Peking Union Medical College Hospital between January 2016 and March 2017. The plasma levels of IL-35 were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), and the relationship between IL-35 and the clinical characteristics was analyzed. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression levels of IL-35 subunit EBI3, p35 and T regulatory cell transcription factor Foxp3 mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, and their correlations were analyzed. Results: The plasma levels of IL-35 in patients with sarcoidosis (44±12) ng/L was significantly lower than that in the normal control group (55±12) ng/L (P<0.001). There was a positive correlation between the plasma levels of IL-35 and D(L)CO% predicted values (r=0.76, P<0.001), but it showed no significantly correlation with other clinical parameters. The expression of EBI3 and Foxp3 mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with sarcoidosis (1.54±0.74, 0.92±0.36) were significantly lower than those in the normal control group respectively (2.12±0.61, 1.10±0.27, all P<0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between the expression of EBI3 and Foxp3 mRNA in the sarcoidosis group (r=0.786, P<0.001). Conclusion: IL-35 may be involved in the inflammatory process of sarcoidosis and play an important role in the pathogenesis of the disease.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical manifestations, surgical approaches and postoperative prognosis for the cases of congenital aniridia combined with cataract. Methods: In this retrospective case series, 26 patients diagnosed with congenital aniridia combined with cataract were collected from Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center from February 2002 to August 2016. The Clinical data were collected to analyze the clinical features, surgical approaches and postoperative prognosis. T-test was used for statistical analysis. Results: Twenty-six bilateral congenital aniridia patients were included in the case series, with 50% male cases. The average age for the first visit was (8.72±8.06) years old. Hereditary patients constitutes 30.8% (8/26) of the total number. The proportions for bilateral and unilateral cataracts were 88.5% (23/26) and 11.5% (3/26) respectively, and 49 eyes suffering from both congenital aniridia and cataract were therefore included in the final analysis. The most common morphology cataract subtypes were lamellar cataract (24.5%, 12/49), posterior subcapsular cataract (22.4%, 11/49), and total cataract (18.4%,9/49). The observed ocular comorbidities included nystagmus (36.7%, 18/49), vitreous opacity (28.6%, 14/49), foveal hypoplasia (20.4%, 10/49), ametropia (12.2%, 6/49), exotropia (12.2%, 6/49), congenital glaucoma (12.2%, 6/49), esotropia (4.1%, 2/49), congenital ptosis (4.1%, 2/49), lens ectopia (4.1%, 2/49), scleral staphyloma (2.0%, 1/49) and pigmentary degeneration of retina (2.0%, 1/49). 30.6% (15/49) eyes were performed the cataract extraction surgery. The percentage of postoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) for ≥0.1 and ≥0.3 were 93.3% (14/15) and 20.0% (3/15) respectively. Evaluated ocular pressure (33.3%, 5/15), severe posterior capsular opacification (PCO) (13.3%, 2/15) and choroidal hemorrhage combined with choroidal detachment (6.7%, 1/15) were detected as the postoperative complications. Followed by cataract extraction, 80.0% (12/15) eyes were sequentially performed the intraocular lens implantation, while, 20.0% (3/12) eyes remained aphakia due to ocular comorbidities. Conclusions: Congenital aniridia combined with cataract are rare diseases, calling for the precious retrospective researches. This disorder tended to affect both eyes and occurred hereditary. The clinical courses of the cases presented progressive features. Ocular comorbidities were the crucial factors to influence the surgical approaches and postoperative prognosis.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the origin of ovarian high grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) through analysing the expression and significance of PAX8, PAX2, p53 and RAS in the ovary and fallopian tube of different types and grades of serous carcinoma. Methods: A total of 44 cases tissue samples of ovarian tumor including 34 malignant ovarian tumor and 10 normal normal tissue (as control group) were collected from the admitted patients in Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from January 2015 to January 2016. Fallopian tube tissues were segmented in accordance with the fimbria, ampulla, isthmus and the corresponding ovarian tissues were by the side. There were 34 cases of patients with ovarian cancer including 29 cases of epithelial ovarian cancer (27 serous carcinoma, 1 mucinous carcinoma,1 endometrioid adenocarcinoma) and 5 non-epithelial ovarian cancer (sex cord-interstitial tumor). Among 27 cases of patients with ovarian serous cancer, there were 23 HGSC and 4 low-grade ovarian serous cancer (LGSC). One hundred fifty-three cases of samples were diagnosed as ovarian serous cancer by Shandong University Affiliated Qilu Hospital from 2005 to 2013 and these samples were made tissue microarray. (1) To analyze the expression and differences of PAX8, PAX2, p53 and RAS in the above tissues and tissue microarray from ovarian and tubal of HGSC and control women by immunohistochemistry methods. (2) To compare the expression levels of PAX8, PAX2, p53 and RAS in ovarian and fallopian tubes of ovarian cancer patients with different pathological types. (3) To analyze the correlations of tubal and ovarian tissue in PAX8, PAX2, p53 and RAS expression of HGSC. (4) To analyze the factors of the prognosis of ovarian serous cancer in tissue microarray by single factor analysis method. Results: (1) PAX8, PAX2, p53 and RAS expression was negative in normal ovarian epithelium of control group, but the expression of PAX8, PAX2, p53 and RAS were strongly positive brown in secrete cells of normal fallopian tube epithelium. (2) p53 and RAS expression of fallopian tube epithelium in the epithelial ovarian cancer group were significantly higher than those in the non-epithelial ovarian cancer groups (P<0.05), but the expression of PAX8 and PAX2 in fallopian tube and the expression of PAX8, PAX2, p53 and RAS in ovarian tissue was not statistically significant in the groups (P>0.05). PAX8, PAX2 and p53 expression of the ovarian in HGSC group were significantly higher than those in LGSC group (P<0.05), while the expression of RAS was lower in the ovarian of the high-grade group (P<0.05), while the expression of PAX8, PAX2, p53 and RAS in fallopian tube was not statistically significant in the groups (P>0.05). (3) There was a significantly positive correlation between fallopian tube and the corresponding ovary of HGSC in PAX8 and PAX2 expression (r=0.422, P=0.045; r=0.693, P=0.000), but not correlation in p53 and RAS expression (r=0.058, P=0.793; r= -0.190, P=0.384). (4) Univariate survival analysis showed that the progression free survival time in patients with ovarian serous cancer group was significantly correlated with the protein expression of PAX8, PAX2 and RAS (P<0.05), but there were not correlated with age, surgical staging, cell differentiation, lymph node metastasis and preoperative chemotherapy and p53 protein expression (P>0.05). The total survival time in patients with ovarian serous cancer group was significantly correlated with the protein expression of PAX8 (P<0.05), but there were not correlated with age,surgical staging, cell differentiation, lymph node metastasis and preoperative chemotherapy and the protein expression of PAX2, RAS and p53 (P>0.05). Conclusions: PAX8, PAX2, p53, RAS are of great significance for the study of origin of HGSC. HGSC may be derived from fallopian tube, but further investigation would be necessary to confirm this. PAX8, PAX2, p53, RAS could be expected to be used as predictors of survival prognosis in patients with ovarian serous cancer.

Abstract
Gall-inducing insects produce various types of galls on plants, but little is known about the gall-induction mechanism of these galling insects. The gall wasp Leptocybe invasa Fisher & LaSalle (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) forms galls of different sizes on several Eucalyptus species. To clarify the physiological responses of Eucalyptus to L. invasa infestation, we measured the dynamics of nitrogen (N), carbon (C), total phenolics, total tannins and four types of phytohormones (zeatin [Z] + zeatin riboside [ZR], gibberellins [GA], indole-3-acetic acid [IAA] and abscisic acid [ABA]) in galled and ungalled leaf tissues of two Eucalyptus horticultural varieties (DH201-2 [Eucalyptus grandis × Eucalyptus camaldulensis] and EA [Eucalyptus exserta]) with different susceptibility to galling throughout the larval developmental stages. Nitrogen, total phenolics, tannins and four kinds of phytohormones strongly accumulated in tissues galled by L. invasa (especially during early larval feeding stages). While N, Z + ZR and GA levels were higher, tannins and ABA levels were lower in the galled tissues on the highly susceptible variety. Nitrogen, total phenolics, GA, Z + ZR and IAA levels in the galled tissues gradually decreased during gall development, but ABA and tannins conversely increased in the galled tissues of the less susceptible variety. Our results suggest that the effects of gall-inducing insects on plants depend not only on the susceptibility of the plant infested but also on the developmental stage of galled tissues. Gall formation process is thus synergistically influenced by both gall-inducing insect and plant genotypes.

Abstract
Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play an essential role in metastasis. However, what enables TAMs to have a superior capacity to establish pre-metastatic microenvironment in distant organs is unclear. Here we have begun to uncover the effects of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 4A in TAMs on lung pre-metastatic niche formation and metastasis. CYP4A+ TAM infiltration was positively associated with metastasis, pre-metastatic niche formation and poor prognosis in breast cancer patients. The pharmacological inhibition of CYP4A reduced lung pre-metastatic niche formation (evidenced by a decrease in vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 positive (VEGFR1+) myeloid cell recruitment and pro-metastatic protein expression) and metastatic burden, accompanied with TAM polarization away from the M2 phenotype in spontaneous metastasis models of 4T1 breast cancer and B16F10 melanoma. Co-implantation of 4T1 cells with CYP4A10high macrophages promoted lung pre-metastatic niche formation and metastasis. Depletion of TAMs disrupted lung pre-metastatic niches and thereby prevented metastasis. Treatment with the CM from CYP4A10high M2 macrophages (M2) increased pre-metastatic niche formation and metastatic burden in the lungs, whereas CYP4A inhibition attenuated these effects. In vitro TAM polarization away from the M2 phenotype induced by CYP4A inhibition decreased VEGFR1+ myeloid cell migration and fibronectin expression, accompanied with downregulation of STAT3 signaling. Conversely, overexpression of CYP4A or exogenous addition of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid promoted M2 polarization and cytokine production of macrophages and thereby enhanced migration of VEGFR1+ myeloid cells, which were reversed by siRNA or pharmacological inhibition of STAT3. Importantly, a combined blocking M2 macrophage-derived factors TGF-β, VEGF and SDF-1 abolished VEGFR1+ myeloid cell migration and fibroblast activation induced by CYP4A. In summary, CYP4A in TAMs is crucial for lung pre-metastatic niche formation and metastasis, and may serve as a potential therapeutic target in human cancer.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the mid-long term clinical effect of Topping-off surgery and lumbar fusion surgery for two-segmental lumbar degenerative disease. Methods: From March 2009 to March 2012, one hundred and twenty-six consecutive patients (Topping-off surgery and two-segment PLIF surgery) were studied in Orthopedics Department, Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital, Capital Medical University.The VAS and ODI were used to assess clinical symptoms.All patients underwent flexion/extension radiographs examinations before surgery, 1, 2 years and last follow-up postoperatively.Lumbar lordosis, sacral slop, data of Coflex segment and adjacent segment (disc height index, range of motion, foraminal height, foraminal width and Pfirrmann classification of intervertebral disc in MRI) were recorded.The paired double-tailed t test was used to analyze the differences in the results from baseline to each postoperative time point.The paired double-tailed t test was used in both groups to analyze the differences in the results from baseline to each postoperative time point.The Chi-square test was used to evaluate the differences between the incidences of adjacent segment degeneration(ASD) in the groups. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze risk factors for developing radiographic ASD. Results: In topping-off group, 60 patients, average operation time was (134.5±10.2) min. The average blood loss was (301.5±64.6) ml.In fusion group, 68 patients, average age (58.3±4.6) years.The average follow-up time was (47.5±5.1) months.The average operation time was (158.6±19.3) min (P=0.000). The average blood loss was (413.6±131.3) ml (P=0.000). Sex, age, body mass index and intervertebral disc grading were matched between the two groups.Better improvement in VAS back pain score was noted in the topping-off group over the fusion group (P=0.030). Both groups achieved good recovery in ODI and improvement in VAS leg pain and back pain scores at last follow-up postoperatively.In the Topping-off group, FH increased from 10.5 mm at baseline to 11.8 mm at 1 year after surgery (P=0.000) and then decreased mildly in the third postoperative year, while in the fusion group, showed no significant change at all postoperative time points.In the fusion group, the disc height and FW at the same segment were no significant change after first year follow-up, while ROM was significantly decreased after surgery (P=0.000). Foraminal height, foraminal width and intervertebral disc height of adjacent segment of Coflex implant level were found decreased at the end of the postoperative follow-up, while compared with preoperative data no significant difference (P>0.05). At last follow-up, eight patients (13.3%) in the Topping-off group and eighteen patients (26.5%) in the fusion group developed ASD (P=0.033). Conclusions: Topping-off surgery compared with two-segment lumbar fusion surgery can achieve a good result in cases with pre-existing mild or moderate adjacent segment degeneration, restrict the adjacent segment's range of motion and reduce the adjacent segment degeneration. Under strict indications, Topping-off surgery is an acceptable alternative to fusion surgery for the treatment of two-segment lumbar disease.

Abstract
v-myb avianmyeloblastosis viral oncogene homolog (MYB) transcription factors are key regulators of stress responsive gene expression in plants. In this study, the MYB gene, ChiMYB (GenBank accession No. KT948997), was isolated from Chrysanthemum indicum, and was functionally characterized with an emphasis on salinity stress tolerance. The full ChiMYB cDNA sequence (948 bp) encoded a typical R2R3 MYB transcription factor that contained 315 amino acid residues and two MYB domains. The temporal expression pattern of ChiMYB was noted in C. indicum, and the highest level was detected in the roots, followed by leaves and stems. ChiMYB expression was induced by NaCl treatments, and transient expression of the fusion of ChiMYB and green fluorescent protein (GFP) indicated that the protein was targeted to the nuclei of onion epidermal cells. Arabidopsis plants overexpressing ChiMYB displayed improved tolerance to drought and salt stress. When under salt stress conditions, transgenic Arabidopsis plants had higher survival rates than non-transgenic wild-type plants. Chlorophyll content, intercellular CO2 concentration, photosynthetic rate, and stomatal conductance were higher in the transgenic Arabidopsis plants than in non-transgenic control plants. Further investigation revealed that ChiMYB was able to regulate the expression of RD29A, RAB18, COR15, ABI1, and ABA genes, which are involved in salt stress signaling pathways. Our findings demonstrated that ChiMYB is essential for plant responses to salt stress, and it may have great potential for the improvement of salt tolerance in crops.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical value of ultrasound examination of carpal canal structure in patients with mild hand-arm vibration disease. Methods: A total of 29 patients (58 wrists) with mild hand-arm vibration disease who were treated in Shenzhen Prevention and Treatment Center for Occupational Diseases from May to December, 2015 were enrolled as observation group, and 20 healthy volunteers (40 wrists) were enrolled as the control group. Color Doppler ultrasound was used to observe the morphology and echo of the median nerve in the carpal canal and 9 muscle tendons and transverse carpal ligament. The thickness of transverse carpal ligament and diameter of the median nerve at the level of the hamulus of hamate bone were measured, as well as the cross-sectional area of the median nerve at the level of pisiform bone. Results: In the 29 patients with hand-arm vibration disease patients in the observation group, 8 experienced entrapment of the median nerve in the carpal canal, among whom 5 had entrapment in both wrists; there were 13 wrists (23%) with nerve entrapment and 45 wrists (77%) without nerve entrapment. Compared with the control group, the patients with hand-arm vibration disease and nerve entrapment in the observation group showed significant thickening of the transverse carpal ligament at the level of the hamulus of hamate bone and a significant increase in the cross-sectional area of the median nerve at the level of pisiform bone (P<0.05) , while there were no significant differences in the thickness of transverse carpal ligament at the level of the hamulus of hamate bone and the cross-sectional area of the median nerve at the level of pisiform bone (t=-9.397 and -4.385, both P>0.05) . Conclusion: Ultrasound examination can clearly show the radiological changes of carpal canal contents in patients with mild hand-arm vibration disease and has a certain diagnostic value in nerve damage in patients with hand-arm vibration disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes of artificial cervical disc replacement (Prodisc-C), dynamic cervical implant and anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) in the treatment of cervical spondylosis. METHOD From May 2011 to May 2013, a total of 44 cervical spondylosis patients that received cervical disc arthroplasty (Prodisc-C), dynamic cervical implant (DCI) or ACDF were retrospectively reviewed in Orthopedics Department, Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University.The patients were divided into three groups by surgical methods.Parameters as gender, age, the operation time, blood loss and average hospital stay of three groups were compared.The patients were followed 3 months, 6 months, 12 months and 24 months postoperatively.Neck disability index (NDI), Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) Score and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) were used to evaluate the clinical outcomes of the three groups.We also measured the cervical lordosis, range of motion of surgical segment and adjacent segment and height of disc at pre-op and post-op. RESULT All the patients were got at least 24 months follow-up.The differences between postoperative JOA, NDI and VAS scores and preoperative scores were of statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in average hospital stay, JOA, NDI and VAS recovery rate (P>0.05) among three groups.But the operative time and intraoperative blood loss were statistically different (P<0.05). Compared the pre-and postoperative ROM of C2-7, operative, upper and lower levels of each group respectively, the difference between pre-and postoperative ROM of ACDF group were of statistically significant [(16.6±3.6)°, (22.3±4.6)°, (18.1±3.1)°, P<0.05], while was no statistically significant of non-fusion group(P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between pre-and postoperative ROM of upper and lower levels among three groups (P>0.05), but had statistically difference in operative levels [(7.0±1.0) mm, (9.2±1.5) mm, (6.8±1.4) mm, P<0.05]. And there are no serious postoperative complications. CONCLUSION Two cervical non-fusion surgery and ACDF have received good clinical effects in the treatment of spondylotic myelopathy or radicular spondylosis.The artificial cervical disc replacement and dynamic cervical implant can not only recover cervical lordosis and keep the range of motion and stability of the surgical segment, but also reduce the incidence of compensatory motion at adjacent segments and will prevent from adjacent segment degeneration.

Abstract
Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) is a novel technology and the biggest revolution in the field of cataract in the latest several years. However, increasing large-scale population randomized controlled trials (RCT) have demonstrated that FLACS does not provide significant advantages over conventional phacoemulsification cataract surgery (CPCS) for common cataract patients. Furthermore, the cost and space requirement of the femtosecond equipment are another two limitations for the universal application of FSL in cataract surgery. However, FLACS may be beneficial for complex cataract situations, such as lens dislocation, zonular laxity, traumatic cataract, low preoperative endothelial cell values, and significant corneal astigmatism. With the progress of science and technology, FLACS can be expected to achieve integration with phacoemulsification systems, and equipment costs can be reduced, making it more widely used in clinical practice in the future.
