Abstract
IgM MGUS and Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia (WM) represent a disease spectrum with highly dissimilar therapeutic management ranging from observation to chemoimmunotherapy. The current classification relies solely on clinical features and does not explain the heterogeneity that exists within each of these conditions. To shed light on the biology that may account for the clinical differences, we used bone marrow (BM) CD19+/CD138+ sorted cells and matched BM plasma from 32 patients (pts) (7 IgM MGUS, 25 WM) and 5 healthy controls to perform the first comprehensive multiomics approach including whole exome sequencing, RNA seq, proteomics and metabolomics. Applying principal component analysis to gene expression profiling, most of WM pts clustered together, while a small subset of them grouped separately with MGUS pts, suggesting a biologic dichotomy within WM. The healthy controls formed a distinct group from most WM and MGUS. We then applied a non-negative matrix factorization consensus clustering to the gene expression data and identified three robust clusters. Cluster 1 (C1) included only WM pts, cluster 2 (C2) included both WM and MGUS pts, and cluster 3 (C3) included all controls as well as a small number of WM and MGUS pts. When mutations commonly identified in WM were analyzed, there was no difference among the three groups (excluding controls) in mutation burden of MYD88 L265P and CXCR4. Interestingly, aberrant expression of TNFAIP3 seemed a distinct feature of C1 as deletion of 6q (which encodes for TNFAIP3) and TNFAIP3 mutations were each significantly enriched in C1 (47%) compared to C2 (0%) and C3 (20%; p=0.04). Individual clusters associated with specific transcriptional signature and clinical features. While C1 displayed enrichment of cell growth, downregulation of inflammatory pathways (eg IL6 and IL8 signaling) and aggressive behavior, C2 showed increased inflammatory signaling and cell survival with indolent behavior. C3 had an intermediate feature with combined proliferative and inflammatory signatures. In accordance with the transcriptomic data, the hallmark of C1 was upregulation of proliferation-associated proteins (eg AKT, MAPK) and downregulation of inflammatory proteins (eg IL4, IL10) while the opposite was observed in C2. Once more, C3 confirmed intermediate features with combined upregulation of proliferation and inflammatory proteins. The metabolism was rewired towards fatty acid catabolism in C1, glycolysis in C2 and anabolism in C3. Accordingly, C1 showed undetectable concentration of 3-hydroxybutyric acid as opposed to C2 which had increased levels of malic and lactic acids, as end products of fatty acid oxidation and glycolysis respectively. Those metabolites had intermediate levels in C3. In conclusion, we identified three molecular clusters with distinct clinical, proteomic and metabolomic features, suggesting a potential biologic classification that may have therapeutic implications.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the safety and efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty combined with interstitial implantation (125)I of seeds (PVPI) in the treatment of thoracic vertebroplasty with posterior vertebra defect. Methods: A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 64 patients with thoracic spine metastases admitted to Yunnan Cancer Hospital from November 2017 to May 2019 was conducted, including 32 patients with posterior vertebra defect (experimental group) and 32 cases without (control group). Forty-two vertebral bodies of 32 patients in the experimental group were treated with improved PVPI surgery, which performed with the secondary sealing method and inclined puncture needle injection bone cement rotary filling technology, to reduce leakage. The 54 vertebral bodies of 32 patients in control group underwent PVPI. The two groups of patients were followed up on the second day, one month, three months and six months after the operation, and the short-term efficacy, long-term efficacy and safety indicators of the two groups were compared. Results: All 64 patients successfully completed the surgical treatment. The visual analogue scores and Karnofsky scores of the experimental group and the control group were improved to varying degrees on the second day, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after the operation. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). The amount of bone cement in the experimental group and control group was (2.36±0.20) ml and (2.39±0.17) ml, and the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.482). The amount of (125)I seed implantation was (30.63±0.91) and (32.56±0.68), respectively, the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.925). The partial response rates of the study group and the control group were 81.3% and 87.5%, the stable disease rates were 12.5% and 9.4%, the differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). The median overall survival (mOS) of the study group was 13 months, and the median progression-free survival (mPFS) was 8 months. The mOS of the control group was 14 months, and the mPFS was 8 months. The differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). In the experimental group, 6 (14.3%) vertebral bodies had cement leakage, of which 2 (4.8%) were cement leakage at posterior vertebra, 4 (9.5%) were paravertebral cement leakage. Seven (13.0%) paravertebral cement leakage occurred in the control group. There was no significant difference in bone cement leakage between the two groups (P=0.097). Bone cement leakage in both groups did not cause serious complications such as spinal cord injury and paraplegia. Conclusion: The application of PVPI in the treatment of thoracic metastatic tumor patients with posterior vertebra defect can acquire better clinical efficacy and safety through conduction of the improved intraoperative technology and paying more attention to the control of bone cement distribution and other issues.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The current difficulties in the treatment of tumor include repeated administration and high recurrence rate after tumor resection. In order to reduce the number of doses, avoid side effects of chemotherapeutic drugs, suppress tumor growth and delay tumor recurrence after surgery, a temperature-sensitive in situ gel with paclitaxel microspheres (PTX/M gel) was prepared. PTX/M gel was administered by intratumoral injection once a month. METHODS First of all, paclitaxel microspheres (PTX/M) were prepared by emulsion solvent evaporation method. A laser particle size distribution analyzer was used to investigate the size, distribution, specific surface area of microspheres. Paclitaxel content was determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Then encapsulation efficiency of paclitaxel was calculated and in vitro release characteristics were studied. Secondly, PTX/M gel was prepared by cold dissolution method. The phase transition temperature, elastic modulus, dissolution curve, correlation between dissolution and release were measured. Finally, U87 MG and 4T1 subcutaneous tumor models were established respectively to study the efficacy of PTX/M gel in suppressing tumor growth and delaying tumor recurrence after surgery. RESULTS The median diameter of the selected PTX/M was (32.24±1.09) μm, the specific surface area was (206.61±10.23) m2/kg, the encapsulation efficiency was 85.29%±1.34%, and the cumulative release percentage of paclitaxel from PTX/M was 33.56%±3.33% in one month. Phase transition temperature of PTX/M gel was 33 °C. The elastic modulus of PTX/M gel at 25 °C and 37 °C were 4.2×103 Pa and 18×103 Pa, respectively. The gel could stay in the body for up to 48 hours. It could be seen from the results of animal experiments that were compared with the saline group and the Taxol group, and the tumor-bearing mice of the PTX/M gel group had the slowest tumor growth (P<0.05). Similarly, in the tumor recurrence experiments, the mice of PTX/M gel group had the latest tumor recurrence after surgery. CONCLUSION As a local sustained-release preparation, PTX/M gel can effectively suppress tumor growth and delay postoperative recurrence of tumors. It has potential advantages in tumor treatment.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the features of literature on hand-transmitted vibration in China, 1990-2016. Methods: In September 2017, the studies on hand-transmitted vibration in China, which were published in Chinese or English during 1990-2016, with "China" and "Taiwan" as the places where author affiliations were located, were retrieved. A bibliometric analysis was performed to investigate the type of articles, publication time, the journals in which articles were published, author affiliations, author regions, and funding. Results: A total of 205 articles on hand-transmitted vibration were retrieved. There were 7.59 articles on average published annually from 1990 to 2016. In the 205 articles, 114 (55.61%) were published in the journals indexed in one or two core journal databases. In the 64 journals, 22 (34.38%) were indexed in one or two core journal databases. The first authors were from 22 provincial regions (provinces, autonomous regions, or centrally administered municipalities) in China, with 152 articles (74.15%) by the authors in the top five regions. There were a total of 876 authors, and the co-authorship degree was 4.27 (876/205). Most of the first authors (136 articles, 66.34%) were affiliated with universities or institutes for prevention and control of occupational diseases. Among the 205 articles, 103 (50.24%) were original articles or investigations, and 72 (35.12%) were funded. Conclusion: The studies on hand-transmitted vibration fluctuated and increased from 1990 to 2016, with a relatively concentrated distribution in terms of sources, regions, and institutions. Interregional and international academic exchange should be strengthened.

Abstract
We report the discovery of multiferroic behavior in double perovskite Y2NiMnO6. X-ray diffraction shows that the material has a centrosymmetric crystal structure of space group P2(1)/n with Ni(2+)/Mn(4+) ordering. This result is further confirmed by aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy combined with atomic resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy. The appearance of ferroelectric polarization coincides with the magnetic phase transition (∼67 K), which indicates that the ferroelectricity is driven by magnetism, and this is further confirmed by its strong magnetoelectric (ME) effect. We proposed the origin of the ferroelectricity is associated with the combination of Ni(2+)/Mn(4+) charge ordering and the ↑↑↓↓ spin ordering. When compared with other known magnetic multiferroics, Y2NiMnO6 displays several attractive multiferroic properties, including high polarization (∼145 μC/m(2)), a high multiferroic transition temperature (∼67 K), and strong ME coupling (∼21%).

PURPOSE Transformation of follicular lymphoma is a critical event associated with a poor prognosis. The role of the tumor microenvironment in previous transformation studies has yielded conflicting results. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN To define cell subtypes associated with transformation, we examined tissue specimens at diagnosis from patients with follicular lymphoma that later transformed and, using immunohistochemistry (IHC), stained for CD68, CD11c, CD21, CXCL13, FOXP3, PD1, and CD14. Cell content and the pattern of expression were evaluated. Those identified as significantly associated with time to transformation (TTT) and overall survival (OS) were further characterized by flow cytometry and multicolor IHC. RESULTS Of note, 58 patients were analyzed with median TTT of 4.7 years. The pattern of PD1(+) and CD14(+) cells rather than the quantity of cells was predictive of clinical outcomes. On multivariate analysis, including the follicular lymphoma international prognostic index score, CD14(+) cells localized in the follicle were associated with a shorter TTT (HR, 3.0; P = 0.004). PD1(+) cells with diffuse staining were associated with a shorter TTT (HR, 1.9; P = 0.045) and inferior OS (HR, 2.5; P = 0.012). Multicolor IHC and flow cytometry identified CD14(+) cells as follicular dendritic cells (FDC), whereas PD1(+) cells represented two separate populations, TFH and exhausted T cells. CONCLUSION These results identify the presence of PD1(+) T cells and CD14(+) FDC as independent predictors of transformation in follicular lymphoma. Clin Cancer Res; 20(11); 2862-72. ©2014 AACR.

Abstract
8538 Background: Follicular lymphoma (FL) is a heterogeneous disease with a variable prognosis. Transformation to an aggressive lymphoma is associated with a poor prognosis. Previous studies have identified tumor microenvironment cells such as CD68+ macrophages, PD-1+ and FOXP3+ cells as prognostic in FL. However, results have been conflicting and infrequently address the risk of transformation. In this study we analyzed various components of the microenvironment and their association with transformation. Methods: Patients with FL that later transformed were identified through Mayo Clinic lymphoma database. Tissue specimens at diagnosis were stained with CD68, CD11c, CD21, CXCL13, FOXP3, PD-1 and CD14 and characterized by pattern of location and semi-quantitative cell content. Time to transformation (TTT) and overall survival (OS) were assessed by Kaplan-Meir analysis. Significant variables were further analyzed by cox proportional hazards model. Results: 58 patients were included with a median TTT of 4.7 years (range, 0.4-20). Presence of CD14+ cells vs absence and their location (follicular vs non-follicular) were associated with shorter TTT (4.5 vs 6.2 yrs., p=0.037 and 3.8 vs 5.9 yrs. p= 0.027, respectively). The quantity of PD-1+ cell content was not associated with TTT or OS. However, localization of PD-1 to the follicle compared to diffuse was associated with a longer TTT (6.1 vs 3.6 yrs. p=0.033) and superior OS (9.7 vs 4.6 yrs. p=0.009). On multivariate analysis, the pattern of CD14 and PD-1 staining remained significantly associated with shorter TTT (Table). Conclusions: In follicular lymphoma, a diffuse pattern of PD-1+ cells is associated with inferior TTT and OS. CD14+ cells localized to the follicle is associated with a shorter TTT. After accounting for FLIPI score, both these factors remained significant. These results identify two independent predictors of the rate of transformation in follicular lymphoma and suggest it is location rather than quantity of CD14+ or PD-1+ cells that influence outcomes.

Abstract
37 PBDE congeners were analyzed at six different depths in two soil cores taken from a typical electronic waste polluted area in South China. The PBDEs were congregated in the surface layer (0-5 cm) of soil cores and were 29 times in MK and 18 times in NW higher than the second lower layers (5-10 cm). As a whole, the concentrations of PBDEs were decreased with the soil depth increased in two cores. Lower brominated PBDE had higher penetrability than the deca-BDE in soil. The deca-BDE could be detected in deeper soil layers (15-20 cm in MK and 20-30 cm in NW) and the percentage of deca-BDE decreased with the increase of depth.

Abstract
The dominant part of PBDEs residue in pig tissues was BDE-47 accounted for 48.2% approximately 66.9%, followed by BDE-99 from 15.9% to 24.2%. When the data were on lipid weight basis, the summation operatorPBDEs concentrations in tissues of individual pig showed the same order of liver > muscle, intestine > fat. Principal component analysis and PBDE congener mean concentration ratios of muscle versus liver (M/L), fat versus liver (F/L) and intestine versus liver (I/L) showed the higher accumulation ability of PBDEs in liver than in other tissues. And the PBDE mean concentration ratios of M/L, F/L and I/L had the trend of decrease with increasing bromination degree of PBDE congeners.

Abstract
Linfen is generally recognized as one of the most polluted industrial cities in China. Indeed, Linfen is affected by heavy polluting industries and faces pollution by polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). For this study, ten surface soil samples covering all of Linfen were collected and analyzed for 42 BDE congeners. The total PBDEs concentration ranged from 0.064 to 136.1 ng g−1. Moreover, source analysis indicated that PBDEs may be associated with the prevalent use of Deca-BDE in the industrial area of the city. Furthermore, higher levels of PBDE contamination were observed in south Linfen due to the distribution of industrial plants.

Abstract
This study was conducted to determine the concentration of 8 polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in sandstorm depositions in Beijing, China. The PBDE concentrations in 10 samples collected in Beijing ranged from 8.47 to 29.02 ng g(-1), with BDE-209 as the predominant congener (>85%). Principal component analysis revealed that the major source of PBDEs in Beijing may be potentially associated with deca-BDE. Furthermore, increasing PBDE contamination was observed from northwest to east Beijing. Finally, possible factors affecting contamination of the sandstorm depositions were subsequently explored revealing a significant correlation between SigmaPBDEs and the minimum particle size of the sandstorm deposition samples.

Abstract
Mudsnails and sediments from an electronic waste recycling region in South China were chosen to study the polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) bioavailability of mudsnail in different ambient levels. Significant (p < 0.05) correlations of biota-sediment accumulation factor (BSAF) versus the reciprocal of PBDE concentration in sediment (1/Sed) occurred in all quantitative PBDE congeners except BDE-209, showed that the BSAFs of PBDEs in mudsnails were increased with reciprocal increasing ambient levels. The BDE-183 correlation of mudsnail versus sediment (r = 0.580) was much lower than the correlation of BDE-209 versus BDE-183 in mudsnails (r = 0.812), indicated the main source of BDE-183 in mudsnails was from the debromination of higher brominated PBDEs.

Abstract
A total of 21 surface soil samples covering the whole territory of Taiyuan city were collected for analysis the 39 polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). The total PBDEs concentration ranged from 0.016 to 211.416 ng g(-1) in urban soils and 5.961 to 144.162 ng g(-1) in industrial plant soils. PBDE homologues analysis and principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that the major source of PBDEs in Taiyuan might be potentially associated with the prevalent use of deca-BDE as a flame retardant. Furthermore, increasing PBDEs contamination was observed in north Taiyuan because of the degree of urbanization and the distribution of industrial plants.

Abstract
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in leaves and soil from typical e-waste polluted area in South China were investigated. The concentrations (ng/g dry weight) of PBDE congeners and summation operatorPBDE of five leaf samples were much lower than those in soil sample. The general patterns of summation di-BDEs to summation hepta-BDEs percentage distribution in leaf samples were similar to those of the soil sample, except the percentage of BDE209 which were lower than in soil. The percentages of summation di-BDEs to summation hepta-BDEs in soil were in the range of those in leaf samples. The results showed that the contamination of PBDEs in the leaf samples had good correlation with the soil around them.

Abstract
The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha)-mediated transcriptional activation contributes to increased expression of heme oxygenase (HO) genes in renal medullary interstitial cells (RMICs). By Northern blot analysis, HO-1 mRNA expression was found to significantly increase in response to reduction of PO(2) in culture medium. However, HO-2 mRNA was not altered by hypoxia. This hypoxia-induced upregulation of HO-1 mRNA was significantly blocked by HIF-1alpha inhibition with ferrous ammonium sulfate. To further determine the role of HIF-1alpha in the activation of HO-1, the inducers of HIF-1alpha were used to address whether induction of HIF-1alpha stimulates HO-1 mRNA expression. Both desferrioxamine and CoCl(2) markedly increased HIF-1alpha mRNA and protein levels and resulted in the upregulation of HO-1 mRNA but not HO-2. Furthermore, inhibition of HIF-1alpha degradation by CBZ-LLL, an inhibitor of ubiquitin-proteasome, significantly increased HIF-1alpha protein and HO-1 mRNA but not HO-2 in these cells. Using cis-element oligodeoxynucleotide transfection to specifically decoy HIF-1alpha and block HIF-1alpha binding, increased mRNA expression of HO-1 in response to hypoxia and CoCl(2) was attenuated. In vitro nuclear run-on assays further confirmed that hypoxia and alterations of HIF-1alpha mRNA or protein levels significantly affected the formation of HO-1 mRNA. Taken together, our results indicate that HO-1, but not HO-2, is transcriptionally activated by hypoxia through HIF-1alpha-mediated mechanism in RMICs. This hypoxia-induced transcriptional activation may be one of the important mechanisms mediating increased expression of HO-1 in the renal medulla.

Abstract
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) is a transcription factor that regulates the oxygen-dependent expression of a number of genes. This transcription factor may contribute to the abundant expression of many genes in renal medullary cells that function normally under hypoxic conditions. The present study was designed to determine the characteristics of HIF-1alpha cDNA cloned from the rat kidney and the expression profile of HIF-1alpha in different kidney regions and to explore the mechanism activating or regulating HIF-1alpha expression in renal medullary cells. A 3,718-bp HIF-1alpha cDNA from the rat kidney was first cloned and sequenced using RT-PCR and TA cloning technique. It was found that 823 amino acids deduced from this renal HIF-1alpha cDNA had 99%, 96%, and 90% identity with rat, mouse, or human HIF-1alpha deposited in GenBank, respectively. The 3'-untranslated region of HIF-1alpha mRNA from the rat kidney contained seven AUUUA instability elements, five of which were found to be conserved among rat, mouse, and human HIF-1alpha. Northern blot analyses demonstrated a corticomedullary gradient of HIF-1alpha mRNA expression in the kidney, with the greatest abundance in the renal inner medulla. Western blot analyses also detected a higher HIF-1alpha protein level in the nuclear extracts from the renal medulla than the renal cortex. A classic loop diuretic, furosemide (10 mg/kg ip), markedly increased renal medullary Po(2) levels from 22.5 to 52.2 mmHg, which was accompanied by a significant reduction of HIF-1alpha transcripts in renal medullary tissue. In in vitro experiments, low Po(2), but not elevated osmolarity, was found to significantly increase HIF-1alpha mRNA in renal medullary interstitial cells and inner medullary collecting duct cells. These results indicate that HIF-1alpha is more abundantly expressed in the renal medulla compared with the renal cortex. Increased abundance of HIF-1alpha mRNA in the renal medulla may represent an adaptive response of renal medullary cells to low Po(2).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the anatomical basis of blood supply and heel reconstruction by reversed island fibular musculocutaneous flap. METHODS The blood supply of fibular musculocutaneous flap and the biomechanical characteristics of heel were studied by anatomical examination. One case with right heel full defect because of explosion injury was repaired by transfer of reversed island fibular vessels. The fibular flap was 14 cm in length with part of peroneus muscle and long flexor muscle of great toe. RESULTS The lower part of fibular artery had plentiful anastomosis with anterior tibial artery and posterior tibial artery, which could provide ideal reversed blood supply. The rotatory point of vessel pedicle could be chosen according to the need of operation. The lowest site might be above 6 cm to lateral malleolus, and the vessel pedicle was 20 cm in length. The morphological feature of the reversed island fibular musculocutaneous flap was suitable to the biomechanical character of heel. The patient achieved satisfactory clinical result, the musculocutaneous flap survived well for 10 months of follow-up. CONCLUSION The reversed island fibular musculocutaneous flap provide a new method for repairing the severe heel defect, especially in full defect of calcaneus and cuboid bone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES A cross sectional study was performed to find the concentrations of elements contained in the semen of workers exposed to trinitrotoluene (TNT). SUBJECTS AND METHODS Semen of exposed workers in two TNT plants located in He-Nan Province in 1992 were examined. RESULTS The average TNT concentrations in the workplace, except the packing site, were found to have exceeded the maximal allowable concentration (MAC, 1 mg/m3); skin contaminations of male workers exposed to TNT were higher after a shift than in controls, and correlated with the total blood concentrations of TNT, 4-amino-2, 6-dinitrotoluene (4A), and 2-amino-4, 6-dinitrotoluene (2A). Cu, Zn, Na, Mg, and Se concentrations were significantly decreased, but K, Ca, Co, Mn and Li contents were not significantly changed in the semen of workers exposed to TNT. Compared with the control group, the percentage of liquifying time of semen, the sperm malformation incidence, and viability in the men exposed to TNT were all significantly changed. CONCLUSIONS Men exposed to TNT have decreased concentrations of some elements is semen and altered semen physiology.

Abstract
The technique of Enzyme linked immuno-electrophoresis (ELIEP) was established to detect the specific antibody against tubercle bacilli. The results of 730 cases showed that the sensitivity of this method is 97.33%, and the specificity, 97.5%. Thus this method is more sensitive than the ELISA methods which had bean published. The manipulation of ELIEP is simple, convenient, and fast, reagent stable. This method may be used in diagnosis of tuberculosis with reliability and efficiency.
