Abstract
Synovial chondromatosis (SC) is a disorder of the synovium characterized by the formation of osteochondral nodules within the synovium. This study aimed to identify the abnormally differentiated progenitor cells and possible pathogenic signaling pathways. Loose bodies and synovium were obtained from patients with SC during knee arthroplasty. Single-cell RNA sequencing was used to identify cell subsets and their gene signatures in SC synovium. Cells derived from osteoarthritis (OA) synovium were used as controls. Multi-differentiation and colony-forming assays were used to identify progenitor cells. The roles of transcription factors and signaling pathways were investigated through computational analysis and experimental verification. We identified an increased proportion of CD34+ sublining fibroblasts in SC synovium. CD34+CD31- cells and CD34-CD31- cells were sorted from SC synovium. Compared with CD34- cells, CD34+ cells had larger alkaline phosphatase (ALP)-stained area and calcified area after osteogenic induction. In addition, CD34+ cells exhibited a stronger tube formation ability than CD34- cells. Our bioinformatic analysis suggested the expression of TWIST1, a negative regulator of osteogenesis, in CD34- sublining fibroblasts and was regulated by the TGF-β signaling pathway. The experiment showed that CD34+ cells acquired the TWIST1 expression during culture and the combination of TGF-β1 and harmine, an inhibitor of Twist1, could further stimulate the osteogenesis of CD34+ cells. Overall, CD34+ synovial fibroblasts in SC synovium have multiple differentiation potentials, especially osteogenic differentiation potential, and might be responsible for the pathogenesis of SC.

Abstract
Although preclinical and clinical studies have shown that exercise can inhibit bone metastasis progression, the mechanism remains poorly understood. Here, we found that non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells adjacent to bone tissue had a much lower proliferative capacity than the surrounding tumor cells in patients and mice. Subsequently, it was demonstrated that osteocytes, sensing mechanical stimulation generated by exercise, inhibit NSCLC cell proliferation and sustain the dormancy thereof by releasing small extracellular vesicles with tumor suppressor micro-RNAs, such as miR-99b-3p. Furthermore, we evaluated the effects of mechanical loading and treadmill exercise on the bone metastasis progression of NSCLC in mice. As expected, mechanical loading of the tibia inhibited the bone metastasis progression of NSCLC. Notably, bone metastasis progression of NSCLC was inhibited by moderate exercise, and combinations with zoledronic acid had additive effects. Moreover, exercise preconditioning effectively suppressed bone metastasis progression. This study significantly advances the understanding of the mechanism underlying exercise-afforded protection against bone metastasis progression.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and prognostic factors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML) . Methods: In this multicenter, retrospective clinical study, adult patients aged ≥18 years who underwent allo-HSCT for sAML at four centers of the Zhejiang Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Collaborative Group from January 2014 to November 2022 were included, and the efficacy and prognostic factors of allo-HSCT were analyzed. Results: A total of 95 patients were enrolled; 66 (69.5%) had myelodysplastic syndrome-acute myeloid leukemia (MDS-AML) , 4 (4.2%) had MDS/MPN-AML, and 25 (26.3%) had therapy-related AML (tAML) . The 3-year CIR, LFS, and overall survival (OS) rates were 18.6% (95% CI 10.2%-27.0%) , 70.6% (95% CI 60.8%-80.4%) , and 73.3% (95% CI 63.9%-82.7%) , respectively. The 3-year CIRs of the M-AML group (including MDS-AML and MDS/MPN-AML) and the tAML group were 20.0% and 16.4%, respectively (P=0.430) . The 3-year LFSs were 68.3% and 75.4%, respectively (P=0.176) . The 3-year OS rates were 69.7% and 75.4%, respectively (P=0.233) . The 3-year CIRs of the groups with and without TP53 mutations were 60.0% and 13.7%, respectively (P=0.003) ; the 3-year LFSs were 20.0% and 76.5%, respectively (P=0.002) ; and the 3-year OS rates were 40.0% and 77.6%, respectively (P=0.002) . According to European LeukmiaNet 2022 (ELN2022) risk stratification, the 3-year CIRs of patients in the low-, intermediate-, and high-risk groups were 8.3%, 17.8%, and 22.6%, respectively (P=0.639) . The three-year LFSs were 91.7%, 69.5%, and 65.6%, respectively (P=0.268) . The 3-year OS rates were 91.7%, 71.4%, and 70.1%, respectively (P=0.314) . Multivariate analysis revealed that advanced disease at allo-HSCT and TP53 mutations were independent risk factors for CIR, LFS, and OS. Conclusion: There was no significant difference in the prognosis of patients who underwent allo-HSCT among the MDS-AML, MDS/MPN-AML, and tAML groups. Advanced disease at transplantation and TP53 mutations were poor prognostic factors. ELN2022 risk stratification had limited value for predicting the prognosis of patients with sAML following allo-HSCT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although isolated calf muscular vein thrombosis (ICMVT) is commonly seen after hip and knee arthroplasty, no treatment guidelines for ICMVT after joint replacement are available. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of patients with ICMVT for anticoagulant therapy at different time points after primary hip and knee arthroplasty. METHODS Patients with ICMVT after primary hip and knee arthroplasty were included in the study. Diagnosis was established with Doppler ultrasound. Patients were followed up clinically and with Doppler ultrasound at 1, 2, and 3 months. The outcomes were efficacy (complete resolution) and acceptability (hemorrhagic events). Anticoagulant therapy at curative dosage was prescribed for 1 month and was extended for 2 additional months in case of incomplete resolution at 1 month or if propagation was present. The chi-square test was used to compare the outcomes at different time points. RESULTS 302 patients were taken hip and knee arthroplasty from January 2021 to May 2022, in which 51 patients presented with 51 ICMVTs postoperatively. The incidence of ICMVT was about 16.89%. Resolution of ICMVT was considered complete at 1, 2, and 3 months at 36.73%, 61.22%, and 91.84%, respectively, with significant differences among the time points (P < 0.05). All patients with ICMVT receiving anticoagulant therapy remained free of propagations and hemorrhagic events within 3 months. CONCLUSION Our findings provide new insights into the anticoagulant therapy for ICMVT after primary hip and knee arthroplasty, taking oral Rivaroxaban for 3 months is effective and safe, which contributes to provide the reference for clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Isolated calf muscular vein thrombosis (ICMVT) can result in pulmonary embolism, but the treatment of ICMVT remains controversial. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to investigate the optimal treatment for the ICMVT by comparing the efficacy and safety of different treatments. METHODS A network meta-analysis was conducted to search for studies published from database inception to April 30, 2022, that compared the outcomes of 2 or more treatments for ICMVT. The primary outcomes were efficacy (resolution rate) and safety (adverse reactions). Data were extracted following predefined hierarchy and the Cochrane Collaboration risk of bias tool was used to evaluate the methodological quality of the included studies. We estimated summary odds ratios with 95% credibility intervals using Bayesian network meta-analysis with random effects. RESULTS A total of 16 studies were enrolled in the study. In terms of efficacy and safety, urokinase thrombolysis combined with low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) was most effective but had the lowest safety, while physical therapy was safest but had the lowest efficacy. More important, direct oral factor Xa inhibitors were most likely to be second most effective and safe compared with other treatments. For the duration of treatment, anticoagulant therapy for at least 3 months could effectively increase the resolution rate of ICMVT. CONCLUSIONS Considering both efficacy and safety, taking direct oral factor Xa inhibitors for at least 3 months was the optimal treatment compared to LMWH, urokinase thrombolysis combined LMWH, physical therapy and warfarin for patients with ICMVT.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) prediction after total hip and knee arthroplasty remains challenging. Early diagnosis and treatment of DVT are crucial. This research aimed to develop a nomogram for early DVT prediction. METHODS A total of 317 patients undergoing primary total hip and knee arthroplasty in Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital were enrolled between May 2020 and September 2022. Data from May 2020 to February 2022 were used as the development datasets to build the nomogram model (n = 238). Using multivariate logistic regression, independent variables and a nomogram for predicting the occurrence of DVT were identified. Datasets used to validate the model for internal validation ranged from March 2022 to September 2022 (n = 79). The nomogram's capacity for prediction was also compared with the Caprini score. RESULTS For both the development and validation datasets, DVT was found in a total of 38 (15.97%) and 9 patients (11.39%) on post-operative day 7 (pod7), respectively. 59.6% patients were symptomatic DVT (leg swelling). The multivariate analysis revealed that surgical site (Knee vs. Hip), leg swelling and thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT) were associated with DVT. The previously indicated variables were used to build the nomogram, and for the development and validation datasets, respectively. In development and validation datasets, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.836 and 0.957, respectively. In both datasets, the predictive value of the Nomogram is greater than the Caprini score. CONCLUSIONS A proposed nomogram incorporating surgical site (Knee vs. Hip), leg swelling, and thrombin antithrombin complex (TAT) may facilitate the identification of patients who are more prone to develop DVT on pod7.

Abstract
Genotype data from dairy cattle selection programs have greatly facilitated GWAS to identify variants related to economic traits. Results can enhance the accuracy of genomic prediction, analyze more complex models that go beyond additive effects, elucidate the genetic architecture of a trait, and finally, decipher the underlying biology of traits. The entire process, comprising data generation, quality control, statistical analyses, interpretation of association results, and linking results to biology should be designed and executed to minimize the generation of false-positive and false-negative associations and misleading links to biological processes. This review aims to provide general guidelines for data analysis that address data quality control, association tests, adjustment for population stratification, and significance evaluation to improve the reliability of conclusions. We also provide guidance on post-GWAS strategy and the interpretation of results. These guidelines are tailored to dairy cattle, which are characterized by long-range linkage disequilibrium, large half-sib families, and routinely collected phenotypes, requiring different approaches than those applied in human GWAS. We discuss common limitations and challenges that have been overlooked in the analysis and interpretation of GWAS to identify candidate sequence variants in dairy cattle.

Abstract
The clinical application of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in the diagnosis of unknown pathogenic infections and critical infections has become increasingly valuable. Due to the huge volume of mNGS data and the complexity of clinical diagnosis and treatment, mNGS has difficulties in data analysis and interpretation in practical application. Therefore, in the process of clinical practice, it is crucial to grasp the key points of bioinformatics analysis and establish a standardized bioinformatics analysis process, which is an important step in the transformation of mNGS from laboratory to clinic. At present, bioinformatics analysis of mNGS has made great progress, but with the high requirements of clinical standardization of bioinformatics analysis and the development of computer technology, bioinformatics analysis of mNGS is also facing new challenges. This article mainly elaborates on quality control, and identification and visualization of pathogenic bacteria.

Abstract
The polarization states and molecular signatures of macrophages in the synovium of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are not well understood. We aimed to identify specific subpopulations of macrophages and their features in RA synovium thereby providing a theoretical basis for treatment of RA. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was used to identify cell subsets and their gene signatures in synovial cells of patients with RA and osteoarthritis (OA). Spatial distribution of macrophages was visualized by deconvolving spatial transcriptomic data with scRNA-seq data. Flow cytometry and immunofluorescence were applied to investigate the expression of macrophage polarization indicators CD86 and CD206. Trajectory analysis was used to determine differentiation relationships. Transcription factor (TF) analysis was performed to find specific TFs. scRNA-seq identified three cell clusters of macrophages: M0-like MARCO+ Mϕ1, M2-like CSF1R+ Mϕ2, and M1-like PLAUR+ Mϕ3. Mϕ1 distributed widely in the synovium, whereas Mϕ2 and Mϕ3 distributed sparsely. CD86 and CD206 were both upregulated in macrophages of RA synovium, especially in lining layer. Trajectory analysis showed that Mϕ1 existed at the start of the differentiation trajectory. HOXB6, STAT1, and NFKB2 were TFs specific to Mϕ1, Mϕ2, and Mϕ3 under RA condition, respectively. Compared with in OA condition, three macrophage clusters upregulated CXCL2, CXCL1, IL1B, TNFAIP3, ICAM1, CXCL3, PLAU, CCL4L2, CCL4, and TNF in NF-kappa B signaling pathway. The identification of macrophage subsets with different polarized states and their molecular signatures provided a more precise understanding of macrophages, which may contribute to the development of novel therapeutic strategy for RA.

Abstract
Background The functional safe zone of combined anteversion (CA) shows a superior predictive value for dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA) compared to that of the Lewinnek safe zone. Thus, it is necessary to establish a feasible and accurate method for assessing CA for the evaluation of dislocation risk. We aimed to evaluate the reliability and validity of using standing lateral (SL) radiographs for determining CA. Methods Sixty-seven patients who underwent SL radiography and computed tomography (CT) scans after THA were included. Radiographic CA values were obtained via the calculation of the sum of the acetabular cup and femoral stem anteversion (FSA) measurements as obtained from the SL radiographs. Acetabular cup anteversion (AA) was measured based on the tangential line to the face of the cup, whereas FSA was calculated using the developed formula based on the neck-shaft angle. The intra-observer and inter-observer reliabilities for each measurement were examined. Radiological CA values were compared with the CT scan measurements to evaluate their validity. Results The intra-observer and inter-observer agreements of the SL radiography were excellent [intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) ≥0.90]. The radiographic measurements correlated well with the CT scan measurements (r=0.869, P<0.001). The mean difference between the radiographic and CT scan measurements was -0.55°±4.68° and ranged from 0.3° to 2.2° in terms of the 95% confidence interval (CI). Conclusions SL radiography is a reliable and valid imaging tool for the assessment of functional CA.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence of avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head in children less than 3 years of age with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) treated with closed reduction, open reduction alone and open reduction combined with osteotomy. We reviewed clinical trials from the PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library databases (up to November 2020) that were related to closed reduction, open reduction alone and open reduction combined with osteotomy for the treatment of children under 3 years of age with DDH. The screening and quality evaluation of the literature were performed independently by two researchers. In case of disagreement, a third researcher resolved the discourse. Finally, the data were extracted, and the R software and GeMTC program package were used to conduct a network meta-analysis (NMA). The evaluation index was the incidence of AVN. Fourteen articles were included. The NMA showed that in terms of the incidence of AVN, cases treated with open reduction alone were higher than those with closed reduction, and the difference was statistically significant. Open reduction alone had the highest probability (94.4%) of having the highest incidence of AVN, followed by open reduction combined with osteotomy (5.5%) and closed reduction (0.1%). In the treatment of children with DDH who are younger than 3 years old, open reduction alone is most likely to be the treatment with the highest incidence of AVN, followed by open reduction combined with osteotomy. The closed reduction had the smallest probability of AVN.

Abstract
PURPOSE Fibrosis is the only histological feature reflecting the severity and prognosis of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). We aim to explore novel genes associated with fibrosis progression in NASH. METHODS Two human RNA-seq datasets were downloaded from the public database. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to identify their co-expressed modules and further bioinformatics analysis was performed to identify hub genes within the modules. Finally, based on two single-cell RNA-seq datasets from mice and one microarray dataset from human, we further observed the expression of hub genes in different cell clusters and liver tissues. RESULTS 7 hub genes (SPP1, PROM1, SOX9, EPCAM, THY1, CD34 and MCAM) associated with fibrosis progression were identified. Single-cell RNA-seq analysis revealed that those hub genes were expressed by different cell clusters such as cholangiocytes, natural killer (NK) cells, and hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). We also found that SPP1 and CD34 serve as markers of different HSCs clusters, which are associated with inflammatory response and fibrogenesis, respectively. Further study suggested that SPP1, SOX9, MCAM and THY1 might be related to NASH-associated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed that the high expression of these genes could well predict the occurrence of HCC. At the same time, there were significant differences in metabolism-related pathway changes between different HCC subtypes, and SOX9 may be involved in these changes. CONCLUSIONS The present study identified novel genes associated with NASH fibrosis and explored their effects on fibrosis from a single-cell perspective that might provide new ideas for the early diagnosis, monitoring, evaluation, and prediction of fibrosis progression in NASH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the effect of the X-ray incidence angle on cup version measurements and the reliability and validity of standing lateral (SL) radiography for measuring cup versions. METHODS Cup versions under different X-ray incidence angles were investigated by the 3D simulation analysis. Ninety-three patients, who underwent primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) with postoperative SL radiographs and CT scans between April 2020 and December 2021, were retrospectively analyzed. SL radiography was taken under naturally standing position, correcting for the measurement error of pelvic tilt in cross-table lateral (CL) radiography. Cup versions were measured on SL radiographs and CT images by two qualified orthopedic physicians. The intra- and inter-observer reliabilities were assessed by intra-class correlation coefficient. The consistency between radiographic and CT measurements was evaluated using Pearson correlation coefficient. RESULTS No significant differences in cup version measurements were observed between groups of different X-ray incidence angles (P = 0.663) in the 3D simulation analysis. All measurements had excellent intra- and inter-observer reliabilities, with an intraclass correlation coefficient of >0.95. Mean cup version measurements from SL radiographs correlated well with those from CT scans (r = 0.853, P < 0.001). The mean difference between radiographic and CT measurements was -0.49° (range -12.62° to 10.37°, SD 3.95°), and the majority of differences were within the 95% limits of agreement. CONCLUSION The cup versions measured with SL radiography were close to the CT measurements. SL radiograph method is reliable and valid for measuring acetabular component version after THA.

Abstract
Aim Early predictive markers of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after total hip arthroplasty (THA)/total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remain unclear. Our study identified early predictive markers for VTE after THA/TKA. Methods A single-institution retrospective review study was conducted between May 2020 and April 2022 (n = 256). All patients underwent Doppler ultrasounds exam in preoperation and seventh day after surgery. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) was defined by Doppler ultrasound of the lower extremities, which revealed thrombosis. Thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT), thrombomodulin (TM), and plasmin-antiplasmin complex (PIC) concentration were tested from each patient’s preoperative and postoperative days 1, 4, 7, 14. These values were then accessed via receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and further quantified the level of this risk by concentration. Results On postoperative day 1 (pod-1), all patients’ TAT and PIC concentrations were significantly higher than those preoperatively (p < 0.05). The levels of TAT and PIC in patients in the DVT group on pod-1 were significantly higher than those in the non-DVT group (p < 0.05). At pod-1, the TAT concentration for DVT patients was 49.47 ng/mL compared to 20.70 ng/mL for non-DVT patients, PIC was 3.72μg/mL compared to 1.65μg/mL. ROC curve analysis demonstrated that a TAT concentration of 24.3 ng/mL had a sensitivity of 87.9% and a specificity of 69.1%. Conclusion TAT levels on pod-1 may predict DVT early after THA/TKA, which makes it possible for early intervention to decrease the incidence of DVT.

Abstract
To explore the protective immune effect induced by mucosal delivery heparin-binding hemagglutinin (HBHA)-a candidate vaccine antigen of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Female C57BL/6 mice were between 6 and 8 weeks of age before experimental use. Thirty mice received different immunization strategies and were randomly divided into the control group, the early secreting antigen target-6 (ESAT-6) intranasal immunization group, the HBHA intranasal immunization group, the BCG priming PBS control group, or BCG priming HBHA boost group, 6 mice in each group. In order to analyzed the immune effect, the concentrations of plasma Interleukin-17A (IL-17A) and other cytokines were measured by ELISA. Quantitative real-time PCR analyses were performed to detect the relative quantity (RQ) mRNA of IL-17A in the lung. The lung tissue sections were stained to detect the formation of the tertiary lymphoid structures. The chemokines contributed to formation of the tertiary lymphoid structures were also measured. Flow cytometry was used to detect the frequency of Th1 and Th17 cells in the system. Sixty mice in the BCG priming PBS control group and the BCG priming HBHA boost group were sacrificed at different time points after infection to count the lung bacterial burden. The concentrations of plasma IL-17A and relative quantity of lung IL-17A mRNA were highest in the BCG priming HBHA boost group [(14.76±4.73) pg/mL,RQ (12.27±6.71)], which was significantly higher than the control group [(5.57±2.95) pg/mL,RQ (1.30±0.97)] (t=4.213, P<0.001; t=5.984, P<0.001), and also significantly higher than the BCG priming PBS control group [(6.81±2.18) pg/mL,RQ (1.44±1.16)] (t=3.646 P=0.001; t=6.185 P<0.001). Compared with the BCG priming PBS control group (0.38±0.38)% the frequency of spleen Th17 cells were also significantly increased (t=-0.280, P=0.048) in the BCG-primary HBHA boost group (1.02±0.34)%. In addition, HBHA boosting could promote better formation of the tertiary lymphoid structures in the lung, and decrease the bacterial load on the early stage after BCG challenge. Collectively, mucosal delivery of HBHA can effectively enhance the protective effect after BCG vaccination, and it is a potential candidate vaccine component.

Abstract
Clinical evidence has established that concomitant traumatic brain injury (TBI) accelerates bone healing, but the underlying mechanism is unclear. This study shows that after TBI, injured neurons, mainly those in the hippocampus, release osteogenic microRNA (miRNA)-enriched small extracellular vesicles (sEVs), which targeted osteoprogenitors in bone to stimulate bone formation. We show that miR-328a-3p and miR-150-5p, enriched in the sEVs after TBI, promote osteogenesis by directly targeting the 3'UTR of FOXO4 or CBL, respectively, and hydrogel carrying miR-328a-3p-containing sEVs efficiently repaires bone defects in rats. Importantly, increased fibronectin expression on sEVs surface contributes to targeting of osteoprogenitors in bone by TBI sEVs, thereby implying that modification of the sEVs surface fibronectin could be used in bone-targeted drug delivery. Together, our work unveils a role of central regulation in bone formation and a clear link between injured neurons and osteogenitors, both in animals and clinical settings.

Abstract
Objective To assess the current status of caesarean delivery (CD) in China, propose reference CD rates for China overall, and by regions, investigate the main indications for CDs and identify possible areas for safe reduction. Design A multicentre cross‐sectional study. Setting A total of 94 hospitals across 23 provinces in China. Population A total of 73 977 randomly selected deliveries. Methods We used a modified Robson classification to characterise CDs in subgroups and by regions, and the World Health Organization (WHO) C‐Model to calculate reference CD rates. Main outcome measures CD rates in China. Results In 2015–2016, the overall CD rate in China was 38.9% (95% CI 38.6–39.3%). Considering the obstetric characteristics of the population, the multivariable model‐based reference CD rate was estimated at 28.5% (95% CI 28.3–28.8%). Accordingly, an absolute reduction of 10.4% (or 26.7% relative reduction) may be considered. The CD rate varied substantially by region. Previous CD was the most common indication in all regions, accounting for 38.2% of all CDs, followed by maternal request (9.8%), labour dystocia (8.3%), fetal distress (7.7%) and malpresentation (7.6%). Overall, 12.7% of women had prelabour CDs, contributing to 32.8% of the total CDs. Conclusions Nearly 39% of births were delivered by caesarean in China but a reduction of this rate by a quarter may be considered attainable. Repeat CD contributed more than one‐third of the total CDs. Given the large variation in maternal characteristics, region‐specific or even hospital‐specific reference CD rates are needed for precision management of CD. Tweetable abstract The caesarean rate in 2015–2016 in China was 38.9%, whereas the reference rate was 28.5%. The caesarean rate in 2015–2016 in China was 38.9%, whereas the reference rate was 28.5%.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the emergency management process of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (RAAA), and analyze the perioperative mortality factors of different surgical methods. Methods: The emergency data and hospitalization data of 91 patients with ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm in Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from June 2010 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Twelve of the patients died preoperatively due to excessive blood loss, and the remaining 79 patients were hospitalized for open surgery (OSR) or endovascular repair (EVAR).The differences in age, time to hospital arrival, emergency preparation time, first creatinine value, emergency infusion volume, preoperative drop in blood pressure, preoperative use of vasoactive drugs and iliac artery involvement were compared between preoperative death group (n=12) and preoperative survival group (n=79), OSR group (n=50) and EVAR group (n=29), postoperative death group (n=23) and postoperative survival group (n=56). Results: Seventy-nine patients received open surgery or endovascular repair, and 23 died after operation. Age, time to hospital arrival, first creatinine value and emergency infusion volume were (77±11) years, (18±5)h, (469±150) μmol/L, (4 140±1 743) ml in the preoperative death group and (70±10) years, (12±8) h, (228±174) μmol/L, (1 358±1 211) ml in the preoperative survival group, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in preoperative data, intraoperative treatment and postoperative perioperative mortality between the open surgery group and the endovascular repair group (all P>0.05). The intraoperative blood loss, operation time and aortic occlusion rate in the endovascular repair group were 100 (50, 175) ml, (3.2±0.9) h, 13.8%, respectively, which were better than that in the open surgery group 1700 (600, 3425) ml, (5.2±1.1) h, 100%. The differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Age, emergency preparation time, first creatinine value, emergency infusion volume, blood pressure decline rate and vasoactive drug utilization rate in the death group were (77±8) years, (4.1±1.7) h, (456±172) μmol/L, (2 024±1 687) ml, 100%, 100%, respectively, and (68±10) years, (2.7±2.2) h, (135±26) μmol/L, (1 085±825) ml, 21.4%, 12.5% in the survival group, respectively. The differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions: Age, emergency preparation time, first creatinine value, emergency infusion volume, decreased blood pressure and use of vasoactive drugs are all associated with perioperative death in patients with ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. EVAR surgery is a better choice if conditions exist.

Abstract
We analyzed the impacts of drought severity on a variety of sectors in a topographically complex basin (the upper Aragón basin 2181 km2) in the Central Spanish Pyrenees. Using diverse data sources including meteorological and hydrological observations, remote sensing and tree rings, we analyze the possible hydrological implications of drought occurrence and severity on water availability in various sectors, including downstream impacts on irrigation water supply for crop production. Results suggest varying responses in forest activity, secondary growth, plant phenology, and crop yield to drought impacts. Specifically, meteorological droughts have distinct impacts downstream, mainly due to water partitioning between streamflow and irrigation channels that transport water to crop producing areas. This implies that drought severity can extend beyond the physical boundaries of the basin, with impacts on crop productivity. This complex response to drought impacts makes it difficult to develop objective basin-scale operational definitions for monitoring drought severity. Moreover, given the high spatial variability in responses to drought across sectors, it is difficult to establish reliable drought thresholds from indices that are relevant across all socio-economic sectors. The anthropogenic impacts (e.g. water regulation projects, ecosystem services, land cover and land use changes) pose further challenges to assessing the response of different systems to drought severity. This study stresses the need to consider the seasonality of drought impacts and appropriate drought time scales to adequately assess and understand their complexity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the protective role of ulinastatin (UTI) on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats via endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS)-induced apoptosis pathway. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 60 rats were randomly divided into normal group (n=20), myocardial I/R model group (model group, n=20), and myocardial I/R model+UTI treatment group (treatment group, n=20). The myocardial function indicators [creatinine (Scr) and creatine kinase (CK)] were detected. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to measure serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9). Meanwhile, the contents of reactive oxygen species (ROS), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and malondialdehyde (MDA) in rat left ventricular tissues were determined by ELISA as well. The cardiac function indexes were determined via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and echocardiography (ECG). Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining assay was carried out to detect the apoptosis of myocardial tissues. Additionally, the expression levels of endoplasmic reticulum stress and apoptosis genes were measured through quantitative Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR) assay and Western blotting analysis, respectively. RESULTS Serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), CK, and Scr in model group were significantly higher than those in normal group (p<0.05). Besides, rats in model group had significantly lowered SOD, ejection fraction (EF, %), and fractional shortening (FS, %) than those in normal group (p<0.05). In addition, remarkably increased contents of TNF-α, IL-6, MMP-9, MDA, and ROS, as well as higher left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDd) and left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESd) were observed in model group in comparison with normal group (p<0.05). TUNEL staining results revealed that there were more apoptotic cells in model group than that in the other two groups (p<0.05). Expression levels of cysteine aspartic acid-specific protease 12 (Caspase-12) and glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) were evidently higher in model group than those in normal group (p<0.05), while the expression level of B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) was clearly lower in model group than that in normal group (p<0.05). UTI treatment partially reversed the above expression changes (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS UTI has a protective effect against myocardial I/R injury in rats by repressing the occurrence of ERS-induced apoptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Liquid biopsy based on 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) signatures of plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) originating from tumor cells provides a novel approach for early diagnosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Here, we sought to develop a reliable model using cfDNA 5hmC signatures and protein biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis of HCC. PATIENTS AND METHODS We carried out genome-wide 5hmC sequencing of cfDNA samples collected from 165 healthy volunteers, 62 liver cirrhosis (LC) patients and 135 HCC patients. A sensitive 5hmC diagnostic model was developed based on 5hmC signatures selected by sparse Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis and cross-validation to define the weighted diagnostic score (wd-score). Then, we combined protein biomarkers with the wd-score to build a more robust score (HCC score) by logistic regression. RESULTS The distribution pattern of differential 5hmC regions could clearly distinguish HCC patients, LC patients and healthy volunteers. The wd-score based on 64 5hmC signatures in cfDNA achieves 93.24% of area under the curve (AUC) to distinguish HCC patients from non-HCC patients, and the HCC score by combing protein biomarkers achieves 92.75% of AUC to distinguish HCC patients from LC patients. Meanwhile, the HCC score showed high capacity for screening high recurrence risk patients after receiving surgical resection, and appeared to be an independent indicator for both relapse-free survival (P = 0.00865) and overall survival (P = 0.000739). Furthermore, the values of the HCC score in patients' longitudinal plasma samples were positively associated with tumor burden dynamics during follow-up. CONCLUSION We have developed and validated a novel non-invasive liquid biopsy strategy for HCC diagnosis, prognosis and surveillance during HCC progression.

Abstract
Background Cross-table lateral (CL) radiography is a convenient and feasible method to assess cup version angle (VA) after total hip arthroplasty; However, pelvic tilt (PT) may contribute to its measurement inaccuracy. How PT affects CL radiographic measurements have not been well studied. We sought (1) to determine the effect of the PT on cup version measurement on CL radiography and (2) to develop a method for reducing measurement errors caused by the PT. Methods We used 3D technique to construct standard model and capture CL radiography simulation. A linear regression model was created to analyze the relationship between PT and VA. CL radiography and computed tomography (CT) were performed for the enrolled patients after surgery. The consistency between CL and CT measurements were verified by intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC). Results There was a high correlation between the VA and PT. For each 1-degree increased in the PT, the VA decreased by 0.76° (R2 = 0.995, p < 0.001). Based on the data, we created a corrective formula to convert the radiographic measurements into values approximating the actual VA under a natural pelvic position. The VA measurements corrected by our equation was in high agreement with the CT-measured values with reference to the corresponding PT (ICC = 0.988, p < 0.001), which was in sharp contrast to that without PT control (ICC = 0.454, p = 0.203). Conclusions The PT may contribute to cup version measurement inaccuracies on CL radiography. Our mathematical algorithm can serve as a reliable method to improve the accuracy of CL radiography.

Abstract
TanSat is the 1st Chinese carbon dioxide (CO2) measurement satellite, launched in 2016. In this study, the University of Leicester Full Physics (UoL-FP) algorithm is implemented for TanSat nadir mode XCO2 retrievals. We develop a spectrum correction method to reduce the retrieval errors by the online fitting of an 8th order Fourier series. The spectrum-correction model and its a priori parameters are developed by analyzing the solar calibration measurement. This correction provides a significant improvement to the O2 A band retrieval. Accordingly, we extend the previous TanSat single CO2 weak band retrieval to a combined O2 A and CO2 weak band retrieval. A Genetic Algorithm (GA) has been applied to determine the threshold values of post-screening filters. In total, 18.3% of the retrieved data is identified as high quality compared to the original measurements. The same quality control parameters have been used in a footprint independent multiple linear regression bias correction due to the strong correlation with the XCO2 retrieval error. Twenty sites of the Total Column Carbon Observing Network (TCCON) have been selected to validate our new approach for the TanSat XCO2 retrieval. We show that our new approach produces a significant improvement on the XCO2 retrieval accuracy and precision when compared to TCCON with an average bias and RMSE of -0.08 ppm and 1.47 ppm, respectively. The methods used in this study can help to improve the XCO2 retrieval from TanSat and subsequently the Level-2 data production, and hence will be applied in the TanSat operational XCO2 processing.

Abstract
Periprosthetic osteolysis and the subsequent aseptic loosening can lead to the failure of joint replacement. Wear particles are well known to be the initiative cause inducing osteolysis through enhancing osteoclast-mediated bone resorption and reducing osteogenic differentiation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of osteoclast-secreted exosomal long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) on osteogenesis in the process of particle-induced osteolysis. RAW264.7 cells were treated by titanium particles (TI). The inflammatory cytokines were increased, and expression of Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor-κB and Nuclear factor of activated T cells c1 were also increased, indicating osteoclast differentiation occurred. The purified exosomes from RAW264.7 cells induced with TI inhibited osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. RNA sequencing generated lncRNAs expression profiles (458 up-regulated and 1641 down-regulated) of the exosomes derived from RAW264.7 cells treated with TI. Based on the results of gene ontology/Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis and quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction validation, we confirmed two candidate lncRNAs, NONMMUT000375.2 and NONMMUT071578.2. The regulation network presented that some vital genes involved in osteoclast differentiation, such as Bcl2, Wnt11, TGF-β, and Pdk1, were under the regulation of NONMMUT000375.2 and NONMMUT071578.2. Taken together, exosomes derived from TI treated RAW264.7 cells inhibit the osteogenic activity of MC3T3-E1 cells. Exosomal lncRNAs, NONMMUT000375.2 and NONMMUT071578.2 may potentially play their roles in promoting osteoclast differentiation and suppressing osteogenesis, which aggravates the osteoclastogenesis/osteogenesis imbalance.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Exogenous melatonin has been reported to be beneficial in the treatment of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in animal models. Multiple mechanisms may be involved, with melatonin exerting anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, as well as inducing vasodilation and cardio-protection. However, endogenous levels of melatonin in treatment-naïve pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients and their clinical significance are still unknown.
Methods and results
Plasma levels of endogenous melatonin were measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry in treatment-naïve PAH patients (n=43) and healthy controls (n=111). Melatonin levels were higher in PAH patients when compared with controls (Median 118.9 [IQR 109.3–147.7] versus 108.0 [102.3–115.2] pM, P<0.001) (Figure 1A). The overall mortality was 26% (11/43) during a median long-term follow-up of 42 [IQR: 32–58] months. When PAH patients were stratified into 4 groups according to the quartiles of melatonin levels, the mortality from below 1st quartile to above 4th quartile was 55% (6/11), 10% (1/10), 0% (0/12), and 40% (4/10), respectively (Figure 1B). Kaplan-Meier analysis further showed that patients with melatonin levels below the 1st quartile (<109.3 pM) had a worse long-term survival than patients with melatonin levels above the 1st quartile (Mean survival times were 46 [95% CI: 30–65] versus 68 [58–77] months, Log-rank, p=0.026) (Figure 1C).
Conclusion
Endogenous melatonin levels were increased in treatment-naïve PAH patients, and lower levels of melatonin were associated with worse long-term survival in patient with PAH, however, whether exogenous melatonin supplements may be effective as a therapeutic strategy in human PAH remains to be established.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
De novo NAD+ synthesis through the tryptophan-kynurenine (TK) metabolism was recognized as an important pathway in improving mitochondrial function and survival of injury or apoptotic cells, which are key processes involved in the pathogenesis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Although abnormal TK metabolism has been reported in human PAH, the difference between human and animal models of pulmonary hypertension (PH) are currently unknown.
Objective
Determine and compare TK metabolism profiles in plasma from human PAH and 3 animal models of PH.
Methods
Human plasma was collected from treatment naïve patients with PAH (n=43) and healthy controls (n=111). Animal plasma was collected from 3 animal models of PH and corresponding controls, including monocrotaline (MCT) induced PH in rat (n=7, control n=6), Sugen + hypoxia (SuHx) induced PH in rat (n=5, control n=6), and pulmonary vein banding (PVB) induced PH in swine (n=7, control n=6). TK metabolites were determined using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).
Results
TK metabolism was altered in the plasma from of PAH compared to healthy controls (Figure 1A). Lower tryptophan (0.8 fold vs Control, p<0.0001), maintained 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid, and higher kynurenine, 3-hydroxykynurenine, anthranilic acid, and quinolinic acid (1.5, 2.6, 2.0, 2.6 fold vs Control, respectively, p all<0.0001) were seen in the plasma from human PAH. In the rat SuHx-PH model, kynurenine (0.7 fold, p<0.01) and quinolinic acid (0.5 fold, p<0.001) were lower, while 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid (4.3 fold, p<0.001) was higher in PH compared to control (Figure 1B). However, the TK metabolism was unaltered in MCT-PH model in rat (Figure 1C), and PVB-PH model in swine (Figure 1D).
Conclusions
TK metabolism was altered in the plasma from human PAH. The TK metabolism profiles were different among 3 animal models of PH, but did not mimic the profile in human PAH. Further research is required to determine the mechanism(s) behind the abnormal TK metabolism in human PAH as well as whether these mechanisms relate to disease onset or progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the 5-year survival rates in pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have improved over the last decades, there is a high relapse rate for Pediatric AML patients. METHODS In the present study, we mainly combine PCA with the LASSO technique to identify prognostic markers for Pediatric AML patients coming from the NCI TARGET database. RESULTS Three key genes (EEF1A1, RPLP2, RPL19) associated with poor prognosis of pediatric AML has been screened by both PCA and LASSO Cox regression analysis. Simultaneously, we developed a risk score model to predict the prognosis of pediatric AML, according to risk scores, the patients were divided into high- and low-risk groups based on the median risk score. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis indicated that Pediatric AML patients with the high-risk group have a poorer survival rate than those with a low-risk group (p < 0.000). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed that the risk model has a good performance (AUC:0.669). Moreover, the clinicopathologic correlation showed that the expression levels of three genes were related to the central nervous system (CNS) disease and chloroma. GSEA identified that those pathways including oxidative phosphorylation, apoptosis and TGFB signaling pathway were differentially enriched. CONCLUSION Taken together, those studies suggested that a gene panel that consists of three genes (EEF1A1, RPLP2, RPL19) may act as a potential prognostic marker.

Abstract
Background:Development of a standardized approach to assess key elements of disease activity in rheumatology clinical trials has been the goal of Outcome Measures in Rheumatology Clinical Trials (OMERACT), American College of Rheumatology (ACR), and European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR).1,2,3The core sets of measures developed include assessments and composite indices incorporating use of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and clinical measures and clinicians’ assessments to quantify disease activity over time.2PROs are important indicators of disease activity and variability, and they are increasingly used to evaluate treatment effectiveness. Little is known about PROs that patients with rheumatic conditions find most important to convey their experience with their condition and its treatment.Objectives:To examine PROs selected by patients with rheumatic conditions in the ArthritisPower registry to identify symptoms they found most important to track digitally.Methods:Adult US patients within the ArthritisPower registry with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), osteoporosis (OP), osteoarthritis (OA), and fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) were invited via email to participate in this study. Enrolled participants (pts) were prompted to select ≤10 PRO symptom measures they felt were important to track for their condition at baseline via the ArthritisPower app. At 3 subsequent time points (Month [m] 1, m2, m3), pts were given the option to continue tracking their previously selected PRO measures or to add, remove and/or select different measures. At m3, pts completed an exit survey to prioritize ≤5 measures from all measures selected during study participation and to specify other symptoms not available that they would have wanted to track. Measures were rank-ordered based on number of pts rating the item as their 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th choice and weighted by multiplying the rank number by its inverse for a single, weighted summary score for each measure. Values were summed across all pts to produce a summary score for each measure.Results:Among pts who completed initial selection of PRO assessments at baseline (N=253), 184 pts confirmed or changed PRO selections across m1-3. Mean (SD) age of pts was 55.7 (9.2) yrs, 89.3% female, 91.3% White, mean disease duration of 11.6 (10.6) yrs. The majority (64.8%) self-reported OA, followed by RA (48.6%), FMS (40.3%), PsA (26.1%), OP (21.0%), AS (15.8%) and SLE (5.9%), not mutually exclusive, and were similar to the overall ArthritisPower population. The average number of instruments (SD) selected for baseline completion was 7.0 (2.5), 7.1 (2.4) at m1, 7.2 (2.4) at m2, and 7.0 (2.5) at m3. The top 5 PROs ranked by pts overall as most important (weighted summary score) for tracking were Fatigue (71), Physical Function (58), Pain Intensity (50), Pain Interference (49), Duration of Morning Joint Stiffness (41) (Figure 1). Fatigue, Physical Function, and Pain were consistently in the top 5 across diseases while Depression was more frequent among pts with OA, AS and FMS. Pts’ PRO selections showed stability over time except for the RA Flare measure which decreased from 70.5% of RA pts at baseline to 13.6% at m3.Conclusion:The symptoms prioritized by pts included fatigue, physical function, pain, and joint stiffness. Pts‘ choices were consistent over time. These findings provide insights into symptoms rheumatology patients find most important and will be useful to inform design of future patient-centric clinical trials and real-world evidence generation.References:[1]Boers M, et al.

Abstract
Manila clam, Ruditapes philippinarum, is an economically important marine bivalve species. Y-box proteins are members of the cold shock proteins family and highly conserved from bacteria to humans. In this study, a novel Y-box gene (Rpybx) was cloned from the Manila clam and gene expression profiling was performed on three shell color strains (white, zebra and white zebra) and two wild populations (Southern and Northern) of R. philippinarum. The complete ORF length of Rpybx is 1367 bp, encoding 253 amino acids residues. Based on the amino acid sequence analysis and phylogenetic analysis, the Rpybx gene was identified as a member of the invertebrate Y-box proteins family. Rpybx has a similar tertiary structure to human Y-box protein YB-1. The Rpybx mRNA levels were analyzed by qPCR under acute and gradually varied cold stress. Under acute low-temperature stress, the expression of Rpybx mRNA in gills and hepatopancreas was significantly increased in all selected strains and populations (P < 0.05). The Northern population showed the lowest relative expression level of Rpybx. The expressions of Rpybx were greatly upregulated in gills and hepatopancreas of different stains and populations at 5 or -2°C under gradually varied temperature stress (P < 0.05). The results shed light on the biological function of the Rpybx gene in defending against low-temperature challenge and further exploring the molecular mechanism of cold tolerance and resistance in R. philippinarum.
