Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effects of RNA m6A demethylase ALKBH5 gene deficiency on cerebellar morphology and function in the aged mice, and to explore the role of ALKBH5 in cerebellar degeneration. Methods: Western blot was performed to detect the protein level of ALKBH5 in the cerebellum of wild-type mice of various ages. The expression of NeuN, Calbindin-D28K, MAP2, GFAP and other proteins in the cerebella of middle-aged (12-month-old) and aged (18-month-old) wild-type mice and ALKBH5-/- mice was examined using immunohistochemistry. The balance beam test and gait analysis were performed to test the balance ability and motor coordination of the mice. Results: With aging of the mice, the expression of ALKBH5 in the cerebellum increased gradually in an age-dependent manner. In the aged mice, but not middle-aged mice, the body weight, whole brain weight and cerebellum weight of ALKBH5-/- mice decreased by 15%, 10% and 21%, respectively (P<0.05). The expression of ALKBH5 in the Purkinje cells was much higher than that in other types of neural cells. Correspondingly, ALKBH5-deficiency caused 40% reduction in the number of Purkinje cells, as well as the length and density of neuronal dendrites in the aged mice (P<0.01). In addition, the time for the aged ALKBH5-/- mice to pass the balance beam was 70% longer than that of the wild type mice of the same age, with unstable gaits (P<0.01). Conclusions: Gene deficiency of RNA m6A demethylase ALKBH5 causes cerebellar atrophy, Purkinje neuron loss and damage in the aged mice. These changes eventually affect mice's motor coordination and balance ability. These results suggest that imbalanced RNA m6A methylation may lead to neurodegenerative lesions in the cerebellum of mice.

Abstract
PURPOSE Gross extrathyroidal extension (gETE) into major vessel is considered the most advanced stage of the locally advanced papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Surgical intervention may not benefit some patients at this disease stage or even result in intraoperative death due to massive hemorrhage; however, it is still considered an effective strategy for most cases. The lack of description for this challenging invasion in PTC warrants detailed characterization of its pattern, risk factors, optimal surgical method, and prognostic value. METHODS In total, 3127 patients diagnosed as having PTC were enrolled and categorized into two the following groups, namely the major vessel invasion (MVI) group (n = 30) and the control group (n = 3097). Data regarding clinicopathological and demographic characteristics, vascular invasion sites, postoperative complications, locoregional recurrence, distant metastasis, and surgical strategies were collected. Predictive disease-free survival (DFS) was also compared between the two groups. RESULTS MVI was independently associated with invasion of the esophageal extension, age < 55 years, tumor size > 1 cm, lateral lymph node metastasis, and distant metastasis (P = 0.00; P = 0.01; 0.05; P = 0.00; P = 0.00, respectively). The difference in the predictive DFS between the two groups was significant (P = 0.00), and the difference remained significant even in patients with ETE when compared with patients without ETE (P = 0.00). Additionally, predictive DFS did not differ significantly between patients who received vessel repairment and those who received vessel resection (P = 0.28). CONCLUSIONS This study first characterized the gross MVI pattern exhibited by PTC and the risk factors for MVI. Additionally, it demonstrated the DFS of patients with PTC. Extensive gross MVI significantly worsened the biological characteristics of PTC. Regardless of the high risk and difficulty of the operation, patients still benefited from the surgical intervention, and vessel repairment may be the optimal surgical strategy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patients with advanced tumors often suffer from spinal metastatic tumor pain. The current drugs are less effective and have side effects. The objective was to explore the efficacy of iodine-125 particle implantation in the treatment of bone metastatic tumor pain. PATIENTS AND METHODS In a retrospective study, a total of 27 patients with bone metastatic tumors who could not receive surgery or radiotherapy and chemotherapy were analyzed. All patients received conventional treatment, with the visual analog scale (VAS) of >3 points, and the daily onset pain of >3 times. All patients received CT-guided iodine-125 particle implantation to treat local painful lesions. VAS scores were recorded before treatment (T0) and 1 day (T1), 7 days (T2), 30 days (T3), 90 days (T4), and 180 days (T5) after treatment. Kaplan-Meier analytical method was used to calculate the local control rate (LCR) and survival rate (SR). RESULTS All patients successfully completed the CT-guided iodine-125 particle implantation. There was no significant difference in VAS scores before and 1 day after surgery. However, compared with pre-operation, the VAS scores decreased at 7, 30, 90, and 180 days after surgery. The postoperative follow-up was 6-38 months, with a median of 16 months; the LCR at 1, 2, and 3 years after the follow-up were 87%, 51%, and 21%, respectively, and the SR was 84%, 43%, and 16%, respectively. Moreover, no serious adverse reactions were observed. CONCLUSIONS Iodine-125 particle implantation was effective in the treatment of bone metastatic tumor pain without serious complications, and hence, can be used clinically.

Abstract
Background We have previously reported the feasibility of noninvasive stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) as a novel approach for renal denervation. Methods and Results Herein, from a translational point of view, we assessed the antihypertensive effect and chronological evolution of SBRT‐induced renal nerve injury within 6 months in a hypertensive swine model. Hypertension was induced in swine by subcutaneous implantation of deoxycorticosterone acetate pellets in combination with a high‐salt diet. A single dose of 25 Gy with SBRT was delivered for renal denervation in 9 swine within 3.4±1.0 minutes. Blood pressure levels at baseline and 1 and 6 months post‐SBRT were comparable to control (n=5), whereas renal norepinephrine was significantly lower at 6 months (P<0.05). Abdominal computed tomography, performed before euthanasia and renal function assessment, remained normal. Standard semiquantitative histological assessment showed that compared with control (1.4±0.4), renal nerve injury was greater at 1 month post‐SBRT (2.3±0.3) and peaked at 6 months post‐SBRT (3.2±0.8) (P<0.05), along with a higher proportion of active caspase‐3–positive nerves (P<0.05). Moreover, SBRT resulted in continuous dysfunction of renal sympathetic nerves and low level of nerve regeneration in 6 months by immunohistochemistry analysis. Conclusions SBRT delivering 25 Gy for renal denervation was safe and related to sustained reduction of sympathetic activity by aggravating nerve damage and inhibiting nerve regeneration up to 6 months; however, its translation to clinical trial should be cautious because of the negative blood pressure response in the deoxycorticosterone acetate–salt hypertensive swine model.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammation process is an important determinant for subsequent changes in cardiac function and remodeling after acute myocardial infarction (MI). Recent studies have implicated that ALK4 haplodeficiency improves cardiac function after MI. However, it remains unknown if the beneficial effects are partly attributed to ALK4 haplodeficiency-induced modulation on inflammatory response in the inflammatory phase of MI. In this research, we aimed to explore the mechanism of ALK4 haplodeficiency in the inflammatory stage of MI. METHODS ALK4, CD16, and CD14 were detected in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) isolated from MI patients and healthy volunteers. ALK4 haplodeficiency (ALK4+/-) mice and wild-type (WT) littermates were randomly divided into the sham group and the MI group. Inflammation cytokines and chemokines were measured. Echocardiography and intracardiac electrophysiological recordings were performed on the 3rd day and the 7th day after MI operation. ALK4 expression and inflammation cytokines were also detected in LPS- or IL-4-stimulated bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM) from the ALK4+/- mice and WT littermates. RESULTS ALK4 gene expression in circulating monocytes of MI patients was higher than that in those of healthy volunteers. Cardiac inflammation and vulnerability of ventricular arrhythmia after acute myocardial injury are significantly alleviated in ALK4+/- mice as compared to WT littermates. On the 3rd day post-MI, the level of M1 macrophages were decreased in ALK4+/- mice as compared to WT littermates, while the level of M2 macrophages were increased on the 7th day post-MI. BMDM isolated from ALK4+/- mice displayed reduced secretion of pro-inflammation cytokines after stimulation by LPS in hypoxic condition and increased secretion of anti-inflammation cytokines after stimulation by IL-4. As a result, the haplodeficiency of ALK4 might be responsible for reduced inflammation response in the post-MI stage. CONCLUSIONS ALK4 haplodeficiency reduces cardiac inflammation, improves cardiac function, and finally reduces the vulnerability of ventricular arrhythmia in the inflammatory stage after MI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infections are one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). SLE patients have a higher risk of tuberculosis (TB) infection due to impaired immune defence. OBJECTIVES To investigate the demographics, clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with SLE and concomitant TB. METHODS Medical records of SLE patients with TB who were admitted to Peking Union Medical College (PUMC) Hospital in 1983-2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Age- and sex-matched SLE inpatients without TB were randomly selected as controls. Clinical and laboratory features and treatment were analysed and compared, and subjects were followed up to assess their outcome. RESULTS Of the 10 469 SLE inpatients, 249 (2.4%) were diagnosed with TB. Compared with controls, SLE/TB + patients exhibited higher frequency of prior haematologic, mucocutaneous and musculoskeletal system involvement, and prior treatment with potent glucocorticoid/immunosuppressive agents (GC/ISA). Arthritis and alopecia, positive T-SPOT.TB test and lymphocytopenia were more common in SLE/TB + patients. SLE/TB + patients with lupus before TB (SLE → TB) had higher risk of miliary TB (22.8%) and intracranial TB (16.5%) than SLE/TB + patients with lupus after TB (TB → SLE). SLE/TB + patients exhibited shorter long-term survival than SLE/TB- patients; those with poorer in-hospital outcomes had more severe lymphocytopenia and had received less treatment with ISAs. CONCLUSION Systemic lupus erythematosus patients treated vigorously with GC/ISA should be alerted of increased risk of TB infection, especially miliary and intracranial TB. Positive T-SPOT.TB and lymphocytopenia served as discriminatory variables between SLE/TB + and SLE/TB- patients. Lymphocytopenia was associated with poorer outcomes in SLE/TB + patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the effectiveness and safety of treatment consisting of extending chemotherapy (ECT) with capecitabine following capecitabine plus oxaliplatin (CAPOX) chemotherapy for stage 3 gastric carcinoma (GC) after D2 gastrectomy. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this retrospective study, we included 214 patients with stage 3 GC who underwent D2 gastrectomy between January 2012 and April 2014. The CAPOX regimen chemotherapy was administrated to all of the patients as adjuvant therapy. The CAPOX regimen consisted of capecitabine (1000 mg/m2, in 2 divided doses for 14 d) and oxaliplatin (130 mg/m2 given on Day 1), repeated every 21 d for 8 cycles. Following CAPOX chemotherapy, 102 of these patients received extending chemotherapy (the ECT group) with capecitabine, whereas 112 patients (the control group) received no ECT. The ECT consisted of capecitabine (1000 mg/m2, in 2 divided doses for 14 d), repeated every 21 d for 8 cycles at most. The chemotherapy was discontinued if unacceptable toxicity or disease progression occurred or upon the request of the patient. All cases were followed up, and overall survival (OS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), and toxicities were compared. RESULTS The ECT group exhibited a distinctly higher 5-year OS (p=0.0468) and RFS (p=0.0483) than those of the control group. The incidence of hand-foot syndrome was markedly greater in the ECT group (p=0.0043). No toxicity-related death occurred. CONCLUSIONS Extending chemotherapy with capecitabine following the CAPOX regimen chemotherapy provides significant survival benefit for stage 3 GC after D2 gastrectomy.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the correlation factors of contralateral central lymph node metastasis in unilateral papillary thyroid carcinoma with lateral cervical lymph node metastasis. Methods: The clinical data of patients with unilateral papillary thyroid carcinoma who underwent total thyroidectomy and bilateral central lymph node dissection and ipsilateral cervical lymph node dissection from June 2016 to June 2018 at Department of Thyroid Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University were analyzed retrospectively. A total of 317 patients, including 87 males and 230 females, aged (41.4±12.1) years (range: 16 to 75 years), were enrolled in this study. The risk factors of contralateral central lymph node metastasis were analyzed by χ2 test and Spearman correlation analysis. Results: There were 116, 69, 269, and 181 cases of pretracheal lymph node, prelaryngeal lymph node, ipsilateral central lymph node and contralateral central lymph node metastasis, respectively, and 16 cases of skipping metastasis. Univariate analysis showed that contralateral central lymph node metastasis was associated with gender, maximum tumor diameter, capsule invasion, pretracheal lymph node metastasis, prelaryngeal lymph node metastasis, and ipsilateral central lymph node metastasis (all P<0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that male (rs=0.162, P=0.004), maximum tumor diameter>10 mm (rs=0.184, P=0.001), capsule invasion (rs=0.135, P=0.016), pretracheal lymph node metastasis (rs=0.394, P<0.01), prelaryngeal lymph node metastasis (rs=0.272, P<0.01) and ipsilateral central lymph node metastasis (rs=0.203, P<0.01) were independent correlation factors for contralateral central lymph node metastasis. Conclusion: For patients with unilateral papillary thyroid carcinoma with ipsilateral cervical lymph node metastasis, bilateral central lymph node dissection should be considered if male, tumor diameter>10 mm, capsule invasion, pretracheal lymph node metastasis, prelaryngeal lymph node metastasis, or ipsilateral central lymph node metastasis.

Loss of Camk2n1 aggravates cardiac remodeling and malignant ventricular arrhythmia after myocardial infarction in mice via NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Free Radic Biol Med 2021; 167:243-257.

Abstract
AIMS Inflammation response and subsequent ventricular remodeling are critically involved in the development of ventricular arrhythmia post myocardial infarction (MI). However, as the vital endogenous inhibitor of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII), the effects of CaMKII inhibitor 1 (Camk2n1) on the process of arrhythmia substrate generation following MI remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the role of Camk2n1 in ventricular arrhythmia post-MI and the underlying mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS Camk2n1 was mainly expressed in cardiomyocytes and inhibited the phosphorylation of CaMKIIδ in the infarcted border zone. Compared to wild type (WT) littermates mice, Camk2n1 knockout mice (Camk2n1-/-) manifested exacerbated cardiac dysfunction, larger fibrosis area, higher incidence of premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) and higher vulnerability to ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibrillation (VF) after MI. The results of RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) identified that excessive activation of NLRP3 inflammasome was responsible for aggravated inflammation response which led to adverse cardiac remodeling in Camk2n1-/- mice subjected to MI. More importantly, both in vivo and in vitro experiments verified that aggravated NLRP3 inflammasome activation occurred via CaMKIIδ-p38/JNK pathway in Camk2n1-/- mice. CONCLUSIONS Collectively, our results highlight the importance of Camk2n1 in alleviating ventricular remodeling and malignant ventricular arrhythmia post-MI by reducing cardiomyocytes inflammation activation via CaMKIIδ-p38/JNK-NLRP3 inflammasome pathway, targeting Camk2n1 might serve as a novel therapeutic strategy after MI.

Abstract
Objective: To preliminarily establish the multidisciplinary cooperative vaccination management model for pediatric patients with hematological and oncological diseases, and to explore its feasibility. Methods: In this prospective study a total of 150 children with hematological and oncological diseases visited immunization clinic of Shanghai Children's Medical Center from March 2017 to August 2018 were enrolled in this study. After establishing the multidisciplinary team, designing vaccination plan, staff training, implementation and quality control, a multidisciplinary immunization clinic was set up and the vaccination plan were implemented. The implementation rate of vaccination immunization, the HBsAb level and serum hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) level before and after treatment, the HBsAb level and serum immunoglobulin G antibody (IgG) levels of measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) before and 6 months after immunization, the vaccine-related adverse reactions were assessed prospectively. Chi-square test or Fisher exact test was used to compare the differences of antibody level. Results: A total of 124 cases had been vaccinated as planned, with a coverage rate of 82.7%. Among these cases, the difference of HBsAb positive rate before and after treatment was significant (62.9% (78/124) vs.13.7% (17/124), χ²= 63.489, P<0.01). In 64 cases that completed three doses of hepatitis B immunization, there was a significant difference in HBsAb positive rate before and 6 months after immunization (6.3% (4/64) vs. 98.4% (63/64), P<0.01). In 40 cases that completed MMR immunization, the IgG antibody positive rate for measles (22.5% (9/40) vs. 82.5% (33/40), χ²=31.746,P<0.01), mumps (22.5% (9/40) vs.82.5% (33/40), χ²=28.872,P<0.01), rubella (25.0% (10/40) vs.62.5% (25/40), χ²=11.429, P<0.01) before and 6 months after immunization were significantly different. Of the 421 doses of immunization, 25 (5.9%) doses reported controlled systemic or local adverse event. Conclusions: The immunization of pediatric patients with hematological and oncological diseases is of great importance. The newly-developed multidisciplinary cooperation immunization model for Chinese children with hematological and oncological diseases is feasible, and the immunization protocol is safe and has a certain effect.

Abstract
BACKGROUND End-stage heart failure is a major risk of mortality. The conductive super-aligned carbon nanotubes sheets (SA-CNTs) has been applied to restore the structure and function of injured myocardium through tissue engineering, and developed as efficient cardiac pacing electrodes. However, the interfacial interaction between SA-CNTs and the surface cells is unclear, and it remains challenge to restore the diminished contraction for a seriously damaged heart. RESULTS A concept of a multifunctional power assist system (MPS) capable of multipoint pacing and contraction assisting is proposed. This device is designed to work with the host heart and does not contact blood, thus avoiding long-term anticoagulation required in current therapies. Pacing electrode constructed by SA--CNTs promotes the epithelial-mesenchymal transition and directs the migration of pro-regenerative epicardial cells. Meanwhile, the power assist unit reveals an excellent frequency response to alternating voltage, with natural heart mimicked systolic/diastolic amplitudes. Moreover, this system exhibits an excellent pacing when attached to the surface of a rabbit heart, and presents nice biocompatibility in both in vitro and in vivo evaluation. CONCLUSIONS This MPS provides a promising non-blood contact strategy to restore in situ the normal blood-pumping function of a failed heart.

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia nowadays. The occurrence of AF is closely associated with obesity. Cadherin-11 (Cad-11), as a member of the cadherin family, can make a contribution to diet-induced obesity and it will be informative to know whether Cad-11 exerts its effects on atrial remodeling and AF vulnerability in a diet-induced obesity model. In this study, we demonstrated that the expression of Cad-11 was significantly upregulated in the left atrium of AF patients with obesity and mice following 16 weeks of high-fat diet (HFD) feeding. Further confirmed that Cad-11 could regulate the activity of atrial fibroblasts by participating in inducing proinflammatory cytokines production. At animal levels, we found that although there was a lack of statistical difference in body weight, Cad-11-/- mice could markedly improve impaired glucose tolerance and hyperlipidemia. Adverse atrial structural remodeling, including atrial enlargement, inflammation, and fibrosis provoked by HFD feeding were mitigated in Cad-11-/- mice. Mechanistically, Cad-11 activated mitogen-activated protein kinases and nuclear factor-κB for interleukin-6 production in atrial fibroblasts that may contribute to the atrial fibrosis process in obesity-related AF, suggesting Cad-11 might be a new therapeutic target for obesity-related AF.

Abstract
Objective: To assess the anti-hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) titers in children after completion of chemotherapy and (or) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), evaluate the efficacy and safety of the current hepatitis B re-vaccination schedule. Methods: A total of 239 children who completed their chemotherapy and (or) HSCT and visited the vaccination clinic of Shanghai Children's Medical Center from March 2017 to July 2019 were enrolled in this study. According to the previous diseases, patients were divided into leukemia group (85 cases), lymphoma group (30 cases), solid tumor group (49 cases) and non-malignant hematological disease group (75 cases). According to the treatment of previous diseases, the patients were divided into chemotherapy group (126 cases), HSCT group (89 cases) and chemotherapy plus HSCT group (24 cases). HBsAb titers were assessed both at the time of diagnosis and after completion of treatment and some children who were HBsAb seronegative were re-vaccinated with 3 doses of hepatitis B vaccine, the vaccine-related adverse reactions were monitored. HBsAb titers were measured again one month after the completion of inoculation. HBsAb titers were defined as negative at levels <10 U/L and positive at ≥ 10 U/L. Chi-square test or Fisher exact test was used to compare the difference of negative conversion rate of hepatitis B antibody between groups, and Logistic regression was used to explore the risk factors of hepatitis B antibody negative conversion. Results: Among 239 patients, there were 143 males and 96 females. At the time of diagnosis, 179 patients (74.9%) were HBsAb seropositive and 60 patients (25.1%) were HBsAb seronegative. After completion of chemotherapy and (or) HSCT, 133 of 179 children with HBsAb seropositive (74.3%) at diagnosis became HBsAb seronegative. Univariate analysis showed significant differences at the negative conversion rates of HBsAb between different disease groups (χ²=10.211,P=0.015), different treatments groups (χ²=14.899,P<0.01) and different HBsAb titers groups before treatment (χ²=32.117,P<0.01). Logistic regression showed that HSCT (chemotherapy group as the reference, odds ratio (OR)=2.999, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.276-7.050,P=0.012) and HBsAb titers<328.2 U/L before treatment (HBsAb titers≥328.2 U/L group as the reference, OR=6.397, 95% CI3.159-12.954,P<0.01) were risk factors for negative conversion of HBsAb. Among 48 patients whose HBsAb was seronegative after completion of chemotherapy and (or) HSCT and re-vaccinated with hepatitis B vaccine, 47 (97.9%) cases became HBsAb seropositivie. No serious adverse effects or complications were reported among these patients. Conclusions: After completion of chemotherapy and (or) HSCT, most children completely lose their protective humoral immunity against hepatitis B. Hepatitis B re-vaccination schedule can be efficiently and safely applied in those patients.

Abstract
The nodal-line semimetals have attracted immense interest due to the unique electronic structures such as the linear dispersion and the vanishing density of states as the Fermi energy approaching the nodes. Here, we report temperature-dependent transport and scanning tunneling microscopy (spectroscopy) [STM(S)] measurements on nodal-line semimetal ZrSiSe. Our experimental results and theoretical analyses consistently demonstrate that the temperature induces Lifshitz transitions at 80 and 106 K in ZrSiSe, which results in the transport anomalies at the same temperatures. More strikingly, we observe a V-shaped dip structure around Fermi energy from the STS spectrum at low temperature, which can be attributed to co-effect of the spin-orbit coupling and excitonic instability. Our observations indicate the correlation interaction may play an important role in ZrSiSe, which owns the quasi-two-dimensional electronic structures.

Abstract
Background:The association between IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) and malignancies is unclear. No epidemiological data for malignancies in Chinese IgG4-RD patients is available. It is also important to know the risk factors and prognosis for IgG4-RD patients harboring malignancies.Objectives:To investigate the incidence, related factors and prognosis of IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) with malignancies in the Chinese cohort.Table 1.Baseline characteristic of IgG4-RD patients with malignancyPatientSexAgeAge at diagnosis of IgG4-RDAge at diagnosis of malignancySerum IgG4(g/L)Organs involvements of IgG4-RD(*Organ with biopsy)Sites of malignancyP1F5958541499Parotid gland*, salivary glandBreast cancerP2M74666810402Pancreas, bile duct, retroperitoneal fibrosis, kidney, prostate, lymph nodesRectal cancerP3M4642402630Lacrimal gland, parotid glandLipoblastomaP4M7068645780Pancreas, bile duct, lung, prostate, lymph nodesThyroid carcinomaP5F62616111600Pancreas, bile duct, salivary gland*, periaortitis, lymph nodes, pituitaryThyroid carcinomaP6M7268683490Pancreas, bile duct, lymph nodesRectal cancerP7M6058582410Pancreas, bile duct, lymph nodesRenal cancerP8M6863683520Pancreas, bile duct, retroperitoneal fibrosis, lung, kidney, artery, lymph nodesRectal cancerP9M36303512400Pancreas, bile ductSkin cancerP10M52495210000Pancreas, parotid gland*, lacrimal gland, lung, prostate, lymph nodesThyroid carcinomaP11F70686917300Parotid gland, lacrimal gland, salivary gland, sinusLung cancerP12M82797958000Pancreas, lacrimal gland*Colon cancerP13F50494514300Uterus*, ovaryOvarian carcinomaP14F52465010000Parotid gland*, lacrimal glandBreast cancerP15F60555712500Pancreas, parotid gland, lacrimal gland, lymph nodes, sinusLymphomaP16M4237407490Lung*, lymph nodesRenal cancerP17M716869415Pancreas*, bile ductProstate cancerTable 2.Related factors for malignancies in patients with IgG4-RDVariablesUnivariate analysisMultivariate analysisUnivariate OR (95%Cl)P-valueMultivariate OR (95%Cl)P-valueHead and Neck involvement0.304 (0.097- 0.952)0.0410.604 (0.152-2.401)0.474Autoimmune pancreatitis5.359 (1.651-17.393)0.0056.230 (1.559-24.907)0.010Eosinophilia0.117 (0.014-0.966)0.0460.094 (0.010-0.883)0.039Figure 1.Standardized incidence ratios of malignancies in patients with IgG4-RD from different studies.Methods:We prospectively analyzed the IgG4-RD patients recruited in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2011 to August 2018 and identified patients diagnosed with IgG4-RD complicating malignancies. Data regarding demographics, clinical features, treatment and prognosis of IgG4-RD patients complicating malignancies were collected and compared to those of age- and sex-matched controls.Results:Among the 587 Chinese patients with IgG4-RD, 17 malignancies were identified. Ten of them developed malignancy after the diagnosis of IgG4-RD, given a standard incidence ratio (SIR) of 2.78 (95%CI 1.33-5.12). Multivariate logistic analysis indicated that autoimmune pancreatitis (OR= 6.230, 95%CI 1.559-24.907, p=0.010) was positively associated with malignancy, whereas eosinophilia (OR= 0.094, 95%CI 0.010-0.883, p=0.039) was negatively related with malignancies. During a median follow-up period of 61.4±26.4 months, all patients with IgG4-RD and malignancies survived.Conclusion:An increased incidence of malignancy was found in Chinese IgG4-RD cohort. Autoimmune pancreatitis is a potential risk factor, whereas eosinophilia is a possible protective factor for complicating malignancies.References:[1] Wallace, Z. S.,et al.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Catheter-based renal denervation (RDN) has achieved promising outcomes to treat hypertension in recent randomized controlled trials. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of noninvasive stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) as an approach for RDN. METHODS SBRT was performed in 24 renal arteries from 12 normotensive swine at doses of 25, 35, and 45 Gy (n = 4 each), and an additional 4 swine served as controls. Blood pressure (BP), renal function, and serum norepinephrine (NE) values were obtained at baseline and at 7 days, 1 month, and 3 months after SBRT. Abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) was performed after 3 months before euthanasia. Renal NE concentration was determined, and histological analysis and immunohistochemistry against tyrosine hydroxylase were performed. RESULTS SBRT procedure was successful in all 12 swine. BP was comparable among groups. Serum and renal NE levels at 3 months were significantly lower in treatment groups compared with control group. Furthermore, SBRT resulted in significantly greater nerve injury score and lower tyrosine hydroxylase score compared with control subjects, whereas there were no statistical differences between SBRT groups. Circumferential lesions created with 35 and 45 Gy were significantly greater than with 25 Gy. CT and histology analysis revealed that animals receiving 35 and 45 Gy experienced more collateral damage, which was minimal in the 25-Gy group. CONCLUSIONS Noninvasive SBRT was feasible and effective for complete, circumferential RDN in a swine model, with dosage at 25 Gy providing the safest short-term profile.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the relationship between donor chimerism and relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) . Methods: The clinical data of 105 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who underwent allo-HSCT and recurrence-free survival>90 days from January 2010 to January 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The bone marrow samples were collected at 15, 30, 60, 90, 180, 270, 360 days after transplantation. Donor chimerism was detected by single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) -PCR. Results: Of the 105 patients, 43 cases were male and 62 cases were female, with a median age of 38 (16-60) years. Till April 2019, the median follow-up was 843 (94-3 261) days. Ninety days after transplantation, 18 cases relapsed, 33 cases died, and 72 cases survived. The 3-year overall survival (OS) rate was (66.8±5.1) %, and the recurrence-free survival (RFS) rate was (65.1±5.0) %. Pre-transplant disease status, pre-transplant minimal residual disease (MRD) , and 90 day post-transplantation chimerism were independent risk factors related to RFS. The risk of recurrence was significantly increased in patients with a donor chimerism rate ≤97.24% at 90 days after transplantation[HR=6.921 (95%CI 2.669-17.950) , P<0.001], which was considered as a sign of early relapse. Conclusion: SNP-PCR is an applicable method for detecting donor chimerism in patients after allo-HSCT. Chimerism rate equal or less than 97.24% at 90 days after transplantation predicts a higher risk of relapse.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the relations of foramen rotundum structure direction and surrounding structure systematically in order to choose the best approach of percutaneous puncturing of radiofrequency thermocoagulation for treating V2 of primary trigeminal neuralgia. Methods: A total of 122 patients with V2 of primary trigeminal neuralgia for radiofrequency thermocoagulation were enrolled from August 2012 to May 2017 at the First Hospital of Jiaxing. CT scan images were observed retrospectively, to find the inside and outside of the foramen rotundum. The direction of foramen rotundum were recorded and the best approach of puncturing were analyzed. Results: The images were divided into four quadrants with the semi - coronal CT scan plane of the lower margin of the zygomatic arch and the outer edge of foramen rotundum for horizontal axis, and the sagittal plane for the vertical axis. In 122 cases, foramen rotundum direction in outer upper quadrant were 77 cases(63.1%), and in outer under quadrant were 22 cases(18.0%), and in inner upper quadrant were 19 cases(15.6%), and in inner under quadrant were 4 cases(3.3%). Conclusion: The most common foramen rotundum direction is in outer upper quadrant, so the best approach of percutaneous puncturing of radiofrequency thermocoagulation for treating V2 of primary trigeminal neuralgia is the upper side against zygomatic and the inner side against the wall of maxillary sinus.

Abstract
Background Activin receptor-like kinase 4 ( ALK 4) is highly expressed in mammal heart. Atrial fibrillation ( AF ) is closely related to ventricular pressure overload. Because pressure overload increases atrial pressure and leads to atrial remodeling, it would be informative to know whether ALK 4 exerts potential effects on atrial remodeling and AF vulnerability in a pressure-overload model. Methods and Results Wild-type littermates and ALK 4+/- mice were subjected to abdominal aortic constriction or a sham operation. After 4 or 8 weeks, echocardiographic and hemodynamic measurements were performed, and inducibility of AF was tested. The hearts were divided into atria and ventricles and then were fixed in formalin for staining, or they were weighted and snap-frozen for quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot analysis. Compared with wild-type littermates, ALK 4+/- mice demonstrated a similar extent of atrial hypertrophy but significantly suppressed atrial fibrosis at 8 weeks post-abdominal aortic constriction. ALK 4 haplodeficiency partially blocked abdominal aortic constriction-induced upregulation of monocyte chemotactic protein 1 and interleukin-6, and the increased chemotaxin of macrophages. ALK 4 haplodeficiency also blunted a reduction of connexin 40 and redistribution of connexin 43 from the intercalated disk to the lateral membranes, thereby improving localized conduction abnormalities. Meanwhile, ALK 4 haplodeficiency inhibited abdominal aortic constriction-induced decreased INa, ICa-L and IK1 densities as well as the accompanying action potential duration shortening. Mechanistically, ALK 4 haploinsufficiency resulted in the suppression of Smad2/3 activity in this model. Conclusions Our results demonstrate that ALK 4 haplodeficiency ameliorates atrial remodeling and vulnerability to AF in a pressure-overload model through inactivation of the Smad2/3 pathway, suggesting that ALK 4 might be a potential therapeutic target in combating pressure overload-induced AF .

Abstract
Objective: To explore the ideal procedure of excision and repair for giant desmoid in the abdominal wall and long-termed follow-up results. Methods: Clinical and follow-up data of 24 patients with giant desmoid in the abdominal wall underwent radical removal and immediate abdominal wall reconstruction in Diagnostic and Therapeutic Center of Hernia and Abdominal Wall Diseases, First Affiliated Hospital of People's Liberation Army General Hospital from October 2006 to October 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. Twenty-one female patients with the mean age of 34.6 years and 3 male patients with the mean age of 42.6 years were recruited. The minimal diameter of these tumors was 15 cm, and the maximal diameter was from xiphoid bone to pubic symphysis. Results: All of desmoids were removed radically and proved by the rapid pathologic examination. The size of abdominal wall defect after desmoids removal were 483 (21 cm×23 cm) to 2 100 cm(2) (35 cm×60 cm), averaged 945 cm(2) (27 cm×35 cm). All of defects were repaired with compound synthetic prosthesis using bridging procedure. Twenty-one patients were recovered smoothly and got primary wound healing. Three patients had prosthesis infected during 1 month postoperatively and 1 patient recovered with conservative therapy, the other 2 patients underwent infected prosthesis removal at 2 weeks and 3 months postoperatively, respectively. Twenty-two patients were followed up with the period of 12 to 121 months and the median period was 63 months. No marginal neoplasm recurrence, incisional hernia, and abdominal wall bulge happened. Eight patients developped fresh desmoids in the abdominal cavity or in the back. Two patients died because of intestinal obstruction due to desmoid infiltration, and the other 6 patients still survived along with stable desmoids. Conclusions: Radical removal for patients with giant desmoid in the abdominal wall is an ideal therapeutic method, and compound synthetic patch can be used to repair huge abdominal wall defect, even the defect compromised all of abdominal wall. The long-termed follow-up results showed these procedures had not put bad influence on the quality of patients' life.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the value of radial and ulnar arteries hemodynamic changes by ultrasound in patients with primary palmar hyperhidrosis after thoracic sympathetic block. Methods: This was a prospective study, from January 2016 to September 2016, 23 patients with primary palmar hyperhidrosis were admitted to the First Hospital of Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, 92 arteries of these patients who underwent thoracic sympathetic block were enrolled into this study. Diameters, peak systolic velocity (PSV), end diastolic velocity (EDV) and resistive index (RI) of the radial and ulnar arteries were examined one day before and after the operation by color Doppler ultrasound. Spectral waveforms of these arteries were observed, and palms temperature (T), oxygen saturation (SpO(2)), perfusion index (PI) were also measured. Diameters, PSV, EDV, RI, T, SpO(2) and PI of the patients with PH were compared before and after the surgery. The effect of operation was also evaluated. Results: Before surgery, diameters and EDV of the radial and ulnar arteries of the patients with PH were(2.12±0.36) mm, (1.50±0.32) mm, (4.90±1.84) cm/s, (4.71±1.65) cm/s, respectively, after surgery, the diameter of the RA, UA and EDV were (2.45±0.54) mm, (1.87±0.44) mm, (9.37±1.69) cm/s and (9.12±1.54) cm/s, which were significantly increased.Before surgery, RI of the RA and UA of the patients were (0.85±0.05), (0.97±0.07) , respectively, after surgery, RI of the RA and UA were (0.57±0.04), (0.64±0.09), respectively, which were significantly decreased after surgery. The difference was statistically significant (t=-5.23, -2.33, -19.80, -14.68, 3.31, 3.48, all P<0.01). Before surgery, PSV of the RA and UA of the patients were (46.38±15.12) cm/s, (45.60±14.88) cm/s , respectively, after surgery, PSV of the RA and UA were (46.93±16.02) cm/s, (46.19±15.30) cm/s , respectively. The difference was not statistically significant (t=-0.23, -1.39, all P>0.05). Before surgery, T, SpO(2) and PI of the patients were(29.7±1.04) ℃, (93.24±2.23) %, (1.11±0.13) % , respectively, after surgery, T, SpO(2) and PI of the patients were (35.09±1.21) ℃, (98.10±1.34) %, (4.77±1.22)% , respectively. The difference was statistically significant (t=-20.174, -1.140, -23.601, all P<0.05). The symptoms of hyperhidrosis of the patients were disappeared immediately after the surgery in both hands. All of the patients were cured within 3 months and there was no severe complications. Conclusion: Thoracic sympathetic block increase Diameters and EDV but decrease RI of the radial and ulnar arteries of the patients with PH and increase the palms temperature. Artery diameters, EDV, and RI measured by ultrasound can be used as parameters to evaluate the effect of thoracic sympathetic block in patients with PH. It's objective, non-invasive and convenient.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A national survey on critical values in hematology of China laboratories was conducted to determine the current practice and assess the quality indicators so as to obtain a quality improvement. METHODS Laboratories participating were asked to submit the general information, the practice of critical value reporting, and the status of timeliness of critical value reporting. RESULTS A total of 862 laboratories submitted the results. The majority of participants have included white blood cell count, blood platelet count, hemoglobin, prothrombin time, and activated partial thromboplastin time in their critical value lists. Many sources are used for establishing a critical value policy, and some of the laboratories consult with clinicians. The unreported critical value rate, late critical value reporting rate, and clinically unacknowledged rate in China are relatively low, and the median of critical value reporting time is 8-9 minutes. CONCLUSION There exists a wide variety for critical value reporting in hematology in China. Laboratories should establish a policy of critical value reporting suited for their own situations and consult with clinicians to set critical value lists. Critical values are generally reported in a timely manner in China, but some measures should be taken to further improve the timeliness of critical value reporting.

Abstract
This paper reports the diagnosis and treatment of 2 cases of acute schistosomiasis with ectopic lesion in the lung. It suggests that in schistosomiasis endemic areas, if the patients with the contact history of infested water have the symptom of fever, while the effects of anti-infection and the corresponding treatments are not good, the clinician should consider acute schistosomiasis.

Abstract
Essentials Predicting the occurrence of portosplenomesenteric vein thrombosis (PSMVT) is difficult. We studied 72 patients with acute pancreatitis. Artificial neural networks modeling was more accurate than logistic regression in predicting PSMVT. Additional predictive factors may be incorporated into artificial neural networks. SUMMARY Objective To construct and validate artificial neural networks (ANNs) for predicting the occurrence of portosplenomesenteric venous thrombosis (PSMVT) and compare the predictive ability of the ANNs with that of logistic regression. Methods The ANNs and logistic regression modeling were constructed using simple clinical and laboratory data of 72 acute pancreatitis (AP) patients. The ANNs and logistic modeling were first trained on 48 randomly chosen patients and validated on the remaining 24 patients. The accuracy and the performance characteristics were compared between these two approaches by SPSS17.0 software. Results The training set and validation set did not differ on any of the 11 variables. After training, the back propagation network training error converged to 1 × 10-20 , and it retained excellent pattern recognition ability. When the ANNs model was applied to the validation set, it revealed a sensitivity of 80%, specificity of 85.7%, a positive predictive value of 77.6% and negative predictive value of 90.7%. The accuracy was 83.3%. Differences could be found between ANNs modeling and logistic regression modeling in these parameters (10.0% [95% CI, -14.3 to 34.3%], 14.3% [95% CI, -8.6 to 37.2%], 15.7% [95% CI, -9.9 to 41.3%], 11.8% [95% CI, -8.2 to 31.8%], 22.6% [95% CI, -1.9 to 47.1%], respectively). When ANNs modeling was used to identify PSMVT, the area under receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.849 (95% CI, 0.807-0.901), which demonstrated better overall properties than logistic regression modeling (AUC = 0.716) (95% CI, 0.679-0.761). Conclusions ANNs modeling was a more accurate tool than logistic regression in predicting the occurrence of PSMVT following AP. More clinical factors or biomarkers may be incorporated into ANNs modeling to improve its predictive ability.

Abstract
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has been widely used to identify altered intrinsic local neural activities and global networks of tinnitus patients. In this study, functional connectivity density (FCD) mapping, a newly developed voxelwise data-driven method based on fMRI, was applied for the first time to measure the functional reorganization pattern in thirty-two unilateral pulsatile tinnitus (PT) patients in the early stage of disease (less than 48 months). FCD analysis was employed to compute short-range and long-range FCD values. A correlation analysis with clinical variables was also performed. Compared with normal controls, PT patients showed significantly increased short-range FCD, mainly in the precuneus (PCu), bilateral inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) and middle occipital gyrus (MOG), and increased long-range FCD in the PCu, posterior cingulate cortex (PCC), and bilateral middle frontal gyrus (MFG). In addition, correlation analysis showed positive correlations between PT duration and short-range FCD values in the right MOG. Positive correlations were also found between the disease duration and the long-range FCD value in the PCC. The increased short-/long-range FCD in bilateral dorsal visual areas indicated that the enhanced pathway between the auditory cortex and bilateral dorsal visual areas may have activated the "auditory occipital activations" (AOAs) pathway. The bilaterally altered FCD values in the dorsal visual areas reflected the cooperation of different brain areas. This study is a foundation of the connectivity research in PT patients. Our work may advance the understanding of the disrupted neural network of patients with PT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the effectiveness of devascularization and shunt on patients with portal hypertension. METHODS Relevant studies compared devascularization and shunt for the treatment of portal hypertension were identified searching the PubMed, Embase, Elsevier, CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure) database and Cochrane Trial Register searches until December 2013. Data of interest for devascularization and shunt including postoperative recurrent bleeding, postoperative hepatic encephalopathy,ascites, operative mortality rate, and long term survival rate were subjected to meta-analysis. RESULTS Eleven studies were included in the study, the results of the meta-analysis showed that all eleven clinical studies demonstrated a significantly higher postoperative recurrent bleeding rate with devascularization group than with shunt group (Odds Ratio =2.14, 95% CI =(1.42, 3.21), P = 0.0003),the rate of hepatic encephalopathy in the devascularization group was significantly lower compared with the shunt group (Odds Ratio =0.56, 95% CI =(0.38, 0.82), P = 0.003); Our meta-analysis of three clinical studies revealed that the reduction of ascites in the devascularization group was significantly less than the shunt groups (Odds Ratio =0.48, 95% CI =(0.26, 0.89), P = 0.02), the operative mortality rate was not significantly different between the devascularization group than for shunt group (Odds Ratio =1.54, 95% CI = (0.91,2.63), P = 0.11). And the long-term survival rate was not significantly different between the devascularization and shunt groups (Odds=1.13, ratio, 95% CI =(0.64, 1.99), P = 0.68). CONCLUSIONS Devascularization and shunt have different advantages and disadvantages respectively which reflected in postoperative complications and long term survival rate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neurofibromatosis with gastrointestinal stromal tumours have been reported several times, while neurofibromatosis with retroperitoneal stromal tumours are very rare. CASE DESCRIPTION We report the case of a 44-year-old man with a long history of neurofibromatosis. He complained of severe constipation and left leg pain. The patient's examination showed prominent peripheral cutaneous neurofibromas mainly in the belly and limbs, especially a huge mass in his abdomen, no less than ten café-au-lait spots, four Lisch nodules of the iris. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a round and lobular mass in the retroperitoneal space. It was a well-circumscribed, hypervascular mass with cystic necrosis. A surgical resection was performed, and pathology and immunohistochemistry findings were consistent with stromal tumour. The c-kit gene and platelet-derived growth factor receptor-α gene mutations are not observed in the specimen. CONCLUSIONS Neurofibromatosis with retroperitoneal stromal tumour is very rare, and radiological, pathological and immunohistochemical examination may identify it. Surgical resection may be the unique method of cure for it.

Abstract
ABSTRACTLinearized augmented plane wave (LAPW) results are presented for FeO at high pressures using the Generalized Gradient Approximation (GGA) to study the high-spin low-spin transition previously predicted by LAPW with the Local Density Approximation (LDA) and Linear Muffin Tin Orbital (LMTO-ASA) methods within the GGA. We find a first-order transition at a pressure of about 105 GPa for the cubic lattice, consistent with earlier LAPW results, but much lower than obtained with the LMTO. The results are generally consistent with recent Mössbauer experiments that show a transition at about 100 GPa. We also discuss the origin of the transition, and show that it is not due to electrostatic crystal-field effects, but is rather due to hybridization and band widening with pressure. Examination of experimental data and computations suggest that the high pressure hexagonal phase of FeO is likely a polytype between the B8 NiAs and anti-B8 AsNi structures. The former is predicted to be an antiferromagnetic metal, and the latter an antiferromagnetic insulator. Implications for geophysics are discussed.

Abstract
In situ x-ray diffraction measurements revealed that FeS, a possible core material for the terrestrial planets, transforms to a hexagonal NiAs superstructure with axial ratio (c/a) close to the ideal close-packing value of 1.63 at high pressure and high temperature. The high-pressure-temperature phase has shorter Fe-Fe distances than the low-pressure phase. Significant shortening of the Fe-Fe distance would lead to metallization of FeS, resulting in fundamental changes in physical properties of FeS at high pressure and temperature. Calculations using the density of the high-pressure-temperature FeS phase indicate that the martian core-mantle boundary occurs within the silicate perovskite stability field.
