Abstract
BACKGROUND Affective dynamics have been identified as a correlate of a broad span of mental health issues, making them key candidate transdiagnostic factors. However, there remains a lack of knowledge about which aspects of affective dynamics - especially as they manifest in the course of daily life - relate to a general risk for mental health issues versus specific symptoms. METHODS We leverage an ecological momentary assessment (EMA) study design with four measures per day over a two-week period to explore how negative affect levels, inertia, lability, and reactivity to provocation and stress in the course of daily life relate to mental health symptoms in young adults (n = 256) in the domains of anxiety, depression, psychosis-like symptoms, behaviour problems, suicidality, and substance use. RESULTS Dynamic structural equation modelling (DSEM) suggested that negative affect levels in daily life were associated with depression, anxiety, indirect and proactive aggression, psychosis, anxiety, and self-injury; negative affective lability was associated with depression, physical aggression, reactive aggression, suicidal ideation, and ADHD symptoms; negative affective inertia was associated with depression, anxiety, physical aggression, and cannabis use; and emotional reactivity to provocation was related to physical aggression. LIMITATIONS The cross-sectional design, the limited span of mental health issues included, and the convenience nature and small size of the sample are limitations. CONCLUSIONS Findings suggest that a subset of mental health symptoms have shared negative affective dynamics patterns. Longitudinal research is needed to rigorously examine the directionality of the effects underlying the association between affective dynamics and mental health issues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND FLASH therapy is a treatment technique in which radiation is delivered at ultra-high dose rates (≥ 40 Gy/s). The first-in-human FAST-01 clinical trial demonstrated the clinical feasibility of proton FLASH in the treatment of extremity bone metastases. The objectives of this investigation are to assess the toxicities of treatment and pain relief in study participants with painful thoracic bone metastases treated with FLASH radiotherapy, as well as workflow metrics in a clinical setting. METHODS This single-arm clinical trial is being conducted under an FDA investigational device exemption (IDE) approved for 10 patients with 1-3 painful bone metastases in the thorax, excluding bone metastases in the spine. Treatment will be 8 Gy in a single fraction administered at ≥ 40 Gy/s on a FLASH-enabled proton therapy system delivering a single transmission proton beam. Primary study endpoints are efficacy (pain relief) and safety. Patient questionnaires evaluating pain flare at the treatment site will be completed for 10 consecutive days post-RT. Pain response and adverse events (AEs) will be evaluated on the day of treatment and on day 7, day 15, months 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 12, and every 6 months thereafter. The outcomes for clinical workflow feasibility are the occurrence of any device issues as well as time on the treatment table. DISCUSSION This prospective clinical trial will provide clinical data for evaluating the efficacy and safety of proton FLASH for palliation of bony metastases in the thorax. Positive findings will support the further exploration of FLASH radiation for other clinical indications including patient populations treated with curative intent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Elevated body mass index (BMI) has been recognized as an important contributor to corticosteroid insensitivity in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). We aimed to delineate the effects of elevated BMI on immunological endotype and recurrence in CRSwNP individuals. METHODOLOGY A total of 325 patients with CRSwNP undergoing FESS were recruited and stratified by BMI. H&E staining was employed for histological evaluation. Characteristics of inflammatory patterns were identified by immunohistochemical staining. The predictive factors for recurrence were determined and evaluated by multivariable logistic regression analysis and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves across all subjects and by weight group. RESULTS In all patients with CRSwNP, 26.15% subjects were classified as overweight/obese group across BMI categories and exhibited a higher symptom burden. The upregulated eosinophil/neutrophil-dominant cellular endotype and amplified type 2/ type 3 coexisting inflammation was present in overweight/obese compared to underweight/normal weight controls. Additionally, a higher recurrent proportion was shown in overweight/obese patients than that in underweight/normal weight cohorts. Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified BMI as an independent predictor for recurrence. The predictive capacity of each conventional parameter (tissue eosinophil and CLCs count, and blood eosinophil percentage) alone or in combination was poor in overweight/obese subjects. CONCLUSIONS Overweight/obese CRSwNP stands for a unique phenotype and endotype. Conventional parameters predicting recurrence are compromised in overweight/obese CRSwNP, and there is an urgent need for novel biomarkers that predict recurrence for these patients.

Abstract
Background Experiences of childhood psychological maltreatment have been found to be associated with various mental health outcomes, and this association persists into adulthood. Objective This study investigated whether some types of psychological maltreatment are more harmful than others; whether the harms associated with different types of psychological maltreatment are generalized or specific to particular domains of psychopathology; and whether the associations vary by gender. Method Participants (N = 544, 63.9 % mother as primary caregiver) were Chinese adults from various regions in China. Participants completed measures of childhood psychological maltreatment experiences perpetrated by their primary caregiver and the mental health outcomes of depression, anxiety, anger, physical aggression, and hostility. The data were analyzed in a hierarchical model in which depression and anxiety were defined as indicators of an internalizing factor, while anger, physical aggression, and hostility were defined as indicators of an externalizing factor. Internalizing and externalizing then defined a higher-order general psychopathology factor. The results suggested equivalent harms of psychological abuse and psychological neglect. Further, the associations between psychological maltreatment and mental health were not unique to specific symptom domains but showed broadband associations with general psychopathology. Results These findings suggest that trans-diagnostic interventions may be the most effective approach for addressing the mental health impacts of psychological maltreatment. Conclusion Childhood psychological maltreatment may pose a broadband risk for any and all forms of psychopathology.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) have shown neuroprotective effects in obese mice. However, whether SGLT2i can ameliorate high-fat diet (HFD)-related ovulation disorders remains unknown. The aim of this research was to investigate whether dapagliflozin improves HFD-induced ovulatory dysfunction by attenuating microglia-mediated hypothalamic inflammation. METHODS C57BL/6J female mice fed HFD were treated with dapagliflozin (1 mg/kg) for 22 weeks. Plasma insulin, leptin, luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol (E2), and IL-1β levels were also tested. Microglial morphology, cell numbers, and SGLT2 expression were evaluated using immunofluorescence. The expression of IL-1β, NLRP3, kisspeptin, gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), SGLT2, insulin, and leptin receptors in the hypothalamus was determined using immunohistochemical staining. We also examined the effects of dapagliflozin on glucose metabolism and the release of inflammatory factor in palmitic acid (PA)-treated HMC3 cells. RESULTS As expected, dapagliflozin improved HFD-induced metabolic disturbances, peripheral versus central insulin and leptin resistance and also restored the regular estrous cycle. Furthermore, dapagliflozin blunted microglia activation, NLRP3 inflammasome priming, hypothalamic inflammation, and increased the expression of GnRH and kisspeptin at proestrus in the hypothalamus. Additionally, dapagliflozin markedly reduced IL-6 and NO release and fat accumulation, decreased lactic acid production and glucose consumption, and inhibited mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and hexokinase 2 (HK2) expression in PA-treated HMC3 cells. These effects suggest that dapagliflozin reduced the mTOR/HK2-mediated aerobic glycolysis. CONCLUSIONS Dapagliflozin improved HFD-related ovulation disorders by regulating glucose metabolism through mTOR/HK2 signaling and attenuating microglia-mediated hypothalamic inflammation. These results validate the novel role for the neuroprotection of SGLT2i in HFD-induced obesity and ovulation disorders.

Abstract
Childhood emotional abuse (CEA) and childhood emotional neglect (CEN) are the least well-studied forms of childhood maltreatment due to challenges in their definition and in detection. However, the available evidence suggests associations with multiple adulthood mental health problems in clinical and non-clinical populations. This systematic review and meta-analysis (PROSPERO registration number CRD42020197833) explored the associations between CEA and CEN and a range of adulthood mental health problems based on systematic searches of eight databases. In total, 79 English and 11 Chinese studies met our inclusion criteria. Results suggested that CEA and CEN had positive associations with various adulthood mental health problems (d = 0.02-1.84), including depression, anxiety, substance abuse, suicidal ideation or attempts, personality disorders, eating disorders, and other psychological symptoms in the general population and across different geographic regions. Furthermore, findings suggested that compared with the non-clinical population, individuals in clinical populations were more likely to have experienced emotional abuse and neglect during childhood. The review highlights the need for more research on emotional abuse and emotional neglect. Furthermore, future research should include more populations from non-western countries and non-college populations. They further underline the importance of addressing issues related to CEA/CEN experiences in the prevention and treatment of mental health issues in adulthood.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Patients with N2 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were heterogeneous groups and required further stratification. The International Society for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) added new descriptors of three sub-stages for stage N2 NSCLC: N2 at a single station without N1 involvement (N2a1), N2 at a single station with N1 involvement (N2a2), and N2 at multiple stations (N2b). This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) for patients with these N2 descriptors. MATERIALS/METHODS Patients with histologically confirmed NSCLC after complete resection and divided into PORT group and non-PORT group. The primary endpoint was DFS. The second endpoints were overall survival (OS) and locoregional recurrence-free survival (LRFS). Propensity-score matching (PSM) of baseline characteristics between the PORT and non-PORT groups was used for validation. RESULTS Totally 1832 patients were enrolled, including 308 N2a1 patients, 682 N2a2 patients, and 842 N2b patients. The median follow-up time was 50.1 months. The survival outcomes of the PORT and non-PORT groups before PSM were shown in Table 1. For patients with N2a1, PORT could not improve the DFS (median DFS of the PORT group and the non-PORT group: not reached vs. 46.8 months, P = 0.41), OS (P = 0.85), or LRFS (P = 0.32), which were consistent with the multivariate analysis and data after the PSM. For patients with N2a2, PORT significantly improved the DFS (median DFS 29.7 vs. 22.2 months, P = 0.02), OS (P = 0.03), and LRFS (P = 0.01). The multivariate analysis and data after the PSM confirmed the benefits in DFS and LRFS, but no benefit was observed in OS (multivariate analysis: HR 0.79, P = 0.18; median OS after PSM: 103.7 vs. 63.1 months, P = 0.34). For patients with N2b, PORT could not improve the DFS (median DFS 20.6 vs. 21.2 months, P = 0.39) but significantly improved the OS (P<0.001) and LRFS (P<0.001). However, the multivariate analysis showed that PORT significantly improved DFS (HR 0.81, P = 0.03), consistent with the data after the PSM (median DFS 20.6 and 17.6 months, P = 0.04). CONCLUSION PORT significantly improved the DFS and LRFS in patients with N2a2 and significantly improved the DFS, LRFS, and OS in patients with N2b. Patients with N2a1 could not benefit from PORT.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) To evaluate the efficacy and safety of nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-PTX) plus cisplatin as the regimen of conversional chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) in locally advanced borderline resectable or unresectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). MATERIALS/METHODS Patients with locally advanced ESCC (cT3-4, Nany, M0-1, M1 was limited to lymph node metastasis in the supraclavicular area) were enrolled. All the patients received the cCRT of nab-PTX plus cisplatin. After the cCRT, those resectable patients received esophagectomy; those unresectable patients continued to receive the definitive chemoradiotherapy (dCRT). The locoregional control (LRC), overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), distant metastasis free survival (DMFS), pathological complete response (pCR), R0 resection rate and adverse events (AEs) were calculated. RESULTS A total of 45 patients with ESCC treated from October 2019 to May 2021 were finally included. The median follow-up time was 30.3 months. The LRC, OS, EFS, DMFS at 1and 2 years were 81.5%, 86.6%, 64.3%, 73.2% and 72.4%, 68.8%, 44.8%, 52.7% respectively. 21 patients (46.7%) received conversional chemoradiotherapy plus surgery (cCRT+S). The pCR rate and R0 resection rate were 47.6% and 84.0%. The LRC rate at 1 and 2 years were 95.0%, 87.1% in cCRT+S patients and 69.3%, 58.7% in dCRT patients respectively (HR, 5.14; 95% CI, 1.10-23.94; P = 0.021). The OS rate at 1 and 2 years were 95.2% and 84.2% in resectable patients compared to 78.8% and 54.4% in unresectable patients (HR, 3.41; 95% CI, 1.10-10.61; P = 0.024). The toxicities during chemoradiotherapy were tolerated, the most common grade 3-4 toxicities were radiation esophagitis (15.6%). CONCLUSION Nab-PTX plus cisplatin were effective and safe as the regimen of conversional chemoradiotherapy of ESCC. The patients receiving conversional chemoradiotherapy plus surgery (cCRT+S) were prone to have a better survival.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Chemo-immunotherapy has shown significant benefits for extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC), which prolonged overall survival (OS) of nearly 2-4.5 months compared with platinum-based chemotherapy alone. However, thoracic radiotherapy (TRT), was not allowed to be used in previous trials. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficiency of TRT for ES-SCLC patients in the era of Immunotherapy. MATERIALS/METHODS We retrospectively reviewed ES-SCLC patients treated with chemo-immunotherapy between 2017 and 2021 in our center. Patients who accepted consolidative or salvage TRT were included. The overall survival, progression-free survival (PFS), local progression-free survival (LPFS), and distant progression free-survival (DPFS) were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Toxicity was recorded based on CTCAE 5.0 scale. RESULTS We finally enrolled 30 patients in our study. The median follow-up time was 26.0 months (95% confidence interval, 18.2-33.8 months). 26(86.7%) patients have undergone first-line chemotherapy and immunotherapy, while 4(13.3%) have undergone immunotherapy as a second-line agent. 23(76.6%) patients achieved CR/PR/SD to initial systematic therapy. All patients were treated with TRT with a median dose of 51 Gy (24-60.2 Gy). The median interval between TRT and immunotherapy was 35 days. Median OS was 26 months (95% confidence interval, 17.8-34.2 months) and median PFS was 8 months (95% confidence interval, 5.3-10.7 months). 2-year OS, PFS, and DPFS were 51.4%, 21.4%, and 27.4%, respectively. 18 months LPFS was 59.6%. There was no ≥ G3 radiation-related adverse event except 2(6.7%) G3 esophagitis. G1-2 pneumonitis was reported in 8(26.7%) patients. CONCLUSION TRT is well-tolerated and effective for selected ES-SCLC patients in the modern era of immunotherapy. Prospective trials are still needed to further evaluate the combination of TRT and immunotherapy for patients with ES-SCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) is widely used in health research to capture individuals' experiences in the flow of daily life. The majority of EMA studies, however, rely on nonprobability sampling approaches, leaving open the possibility of nonrandom participation concerning the individual characteristics of interest in EMA research. Knowledge of the factors that predict participation in EMA research is required to evaluate this possibility and can also inform optimal recruitment strategies. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to examine the extent to which being willing to participate in EMA research is related to respondent characteristics and to identify the most critical predictors of participation. METHODS We leveraged the availability of comprehensive data on a general young adult population pool of potential EMA participants and used and compared logistic regression, classification and regression trees, and random forest approaches to evaluate respondents' characteristic predictors of willingness to participate in the Decades-to-Minutes EMA study. RESULTS In unadjusted logistic regression models, gender, migration background, anxiety, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms, stress, and prosociality were significant predictors of participation willingness; in logistic regression models, mutually adjusting for all predictors, migration background, tobacco use, and social exclusion were significant predictors. Tree-based approaches also identified migration status, tobacco use, and prosociality as prominent predictors. However, overall, willingness to participate in the Decades-to-Minutes EMA study was only weakly predictable from respondent characteristics. Cross-validation areas under the curve for the best models were only in the range of 0.56 to 0.57. CONCLUSIONS Results suggest that migration background is the single most promising target for improving EMA participation and sample representativeness; however, more research is needed to improve prediction of participation in EMA studies in health.

Abstract
Excessive screen time among adolescents is discussed as a significant public health concern. Identifying adolescent longitudinal patterns of time spent on regularly-used media screens and understanding their young adulthood mental health and behavioral issue correlates may help inform strategies for improving these outcomes. This study aimed to characterize joint developmental patterns of time spent on videogames, surfing/chatting the Internet, and TV/DVDs during adolescence (at ages 11, 13, 15, 17) and their associations with mental health (i.e., depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, and self-injury) and behavioral issues (i.e., substance use, delinquency, aggression) in early adulthood (at age 20). A parallel-process latent class growth analysis was used to model data from a diverse community-ascertained sample of youth in Zurich, Switzerland (n = 1521; 51.7% males). Results suggested that a five-class model best fitted the data: (1) low-screen use, 37.6%; (2) increasing chatting/surfing, 24.0%; (3) moderate-screen use, 18.6%; (4) early-adolescence screen use, 9.9%; and (5) increasing videogame and chatting/surfing, 9.9%. After adjusting for baseline levels of outcomes (primarily at age 11), the trajectory groups differed in their associations with adulthood outcomes of mental health and behavioral problems, indicating the importance of problematic screen usage patterns in predicting these outcomes. Future research to test the directionality of these associations will be important. These findings suggest which patterns of screen use may be a marker for later mental health and behavioral issues in different domains.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To retrospectively investigate whether the oral administration of prednisone acetate with doxycycline increases the cure rate of chronic endometritis (CE) and improves in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes in patients with repeated implantation failure (RIF) with CE. METHODS In total, 352 patients with RIF were investigated, 128 of whom were diagnosed with CE by hysteroscopy and endometrial immunohistochemical analysis. The patients with CE were divided into CD138-positive high-power field (HPF) counts of 1-2 and ≥3. Forty-five patients were orally administered prednisone acetate tablet 5 mg daily and doxycycline 100 mg twice daily for 14 consecutive days (group A), and 55 patients were administered doxycycline 100 mg orally twice daily for 14 days (group B) and underwent repeated endometrial sampling and histological assessment. Twenty-eight patients (group C) did not receive any treatment. The cure rate of CE and final reproductive outcomes of the frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycle were compared. RESULTS The total cure rate, cure rate of patients with CE(CD138+ HPF counts: 1-2), and cure rate of patients with CE(CD138+ HPF counts: ≥3) showed no significant difference between groups A and B. Logistics regression analysis indicated that the implantation rate, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)-positive rate, clinical pregnancy rate, clinical pregnancy rate with fetal heartbeat on day 30 (D30), and ongoing pregnancy rate was significantly higher in group A than in group C. For CE-cured patients after the treatment, the implantation rate, hCG-positive rate, clinical pregnancy rate, clinical pregnancy rate with fetal heartbeat on D30, and ongoing pregnancy rate were significantly higher in group A than in group B. CONCLUSION CE is closely related to RIF occurrence, and the combined oral administration of prednisone acetate and doxycycline can be a treatment option for patients with RIF with CE and improves reproductive outcomes, although it does not improve the CE cure rate compared with doxycycline treatment alone.

Abstract
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a systemic endocrine disease affecting women's reproductive health. Ovarian angiogenesis in PCOS patients is abnormal, manifested by increased ovarian stromal vascularization and upregulated proangiogenic factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). However, the specific mechanisms underlying these changes in PCOS remain unknown. In this study, we induced the adipogenic differentiation in preadipocyte 3T3-L1 cells and found that adipocyte-derived exosomes promoted proliferation, migration, tube formation, and VEGFA expression in human ovarian microvascular endothelial cells (HOMECs) by delivering miR-30c-5p. Mechanistically, dual luciferase reporter assay demonstrated that miR-30c-5p directly targeted the 3'- untranslated region (UTR) of suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) mRNA. In addition, adipocyte-derived exosomal miR-30c-5p activated signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3)/VEGFA pathway in HOMECs via targeting SOCS3. In vivo experiments indicated that tail vein injection of adipocyte-derived exosomes exacerbated endocrine and metabolic disorders and ovarian angiogenesis in mice with PCOS via miR-30c-5p. Taken together, the study revealed that adipocyte-derived exosomal miR-30c-5p promotes ovarian angiogenesis via the SOCS3/STAT3/VEGFA pathway, thereby participating in the development of PCOS.

Abstract
Chronic endometritis (CE) has been considered to reduce uterine receptivity and negatively affect reproductive outcomes for in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) patients, especially for people undergoing recurrent implantation failure (RIF). To investigate the effects of antibiotic and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy on pregnancy outcomes following frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) in RIF patients with CE, endometrial specimens of 327 patients with RIF obtained by endometrial scratching during mid-luteal phase were immunostained by multiple myeloma oncogene-1 (Mum-1)/syndecan-1 (CD138). RIF patients with CE were given antibiotics and PRP treatment. According to the Mum-1+/CD138+ plasmacytes after treatment, patients were divided into persistent weak positive CE (+) group, CE (-) group and non-CE group. FET was performed and the basic characteristics and pregnancy outcomes of patients in three groups were compared. Among 327 RIF patients, 117 patients were complicated with CE, the prevalence was 35.78%. The prevalence of strong positive was 27.22% and that of weak positive was 8.56%. 70.94% patients with CE converted to negative after treatment. There was no significant difference in the basic characteristics, including age, BMI, AMH, AFC, infertility years, infertility types, number of previous transplant cycles, endometrial thickness on transplantation day and number of transplanted embryos (p > 0.05); The positive rate of hCG, clinical pregnancy rate and implantation rate in CE (-) group were significantly increased compared with the weak CE (+) group and non-CE group (p < .01), and the live birth rate also improved (p < .05). Whereas, the rate of early abortion in CE (-) group was 12.70%, which was higher than that in weak CE (+) group and non-CE group (p < .05). After multivariate analysis, number of previous failed cycles and CE remained independent factors associated with live birth rate, while only CE remained to be the independent factor of clinical pregnancy rate. It is recommended to perform CE-related examination for patients with RIF. Antibiotic and PRP treatment can significantly improve pregnancy outcomes of patients with CE negative conversion in FET cycle.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to explore the joint effect of body mass index (BMI) and serum lipids levels on incident dementia. METHODS We prospectively followed up with 1,627 dementia-free community residents aged ≥60 for 5.7 years on average. At baseline, weight, and height were measured, and total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were detected in serum. Demographic characteristics were collected through questionnaires. Dementia was based on consensus diagnosis of neurologists and neuropsychologists using DSM-IV criteria. Additive Cox proportional model was used to assess the exposure-response relationship between BMI and serum lipid levels and dementia risk. Interactions and further classifications of BMI and serum lipid levels were further presented by bivariate surface models and decision-tree models. RESULTS The joint effects of TC with BMI, TG with BMI, and LDL-C with BMI on the risk of incident dementia shared a similar pattern, different from their independent exposure-response curves. The joint effect of HDL-C with BMI showed an S-surface but without statistical significance. Participants with TC<5.4 mmol/L and BMI<21 kg/m2 (Hazard Ratio(HR) 1.93, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) 1.05-3.53), TC<5.4 mmol/L and BMI≥21 kg/m2 (HR 1.73, 95% CI 1.09-2.72), and TC≥5.4 mmol/L and BMI<21 kg/m2 (HR 4.02, 95% CI 2.10-7.71) were identified to have the increased risk of incident dementia compared to those with TC≥5.4 mmol/L and BMI≥21 kg/m2. Participants with TG<1.7 mmol/L and BMI<21 kg/m2 had an increased risk of incident dementia compared to those with TG≥1.7 mmol/L and BMI≥21 kg/m2 (HR 1.98, 95%CI 1.17-3.3). Participants with LDL-C≥3.3 mmol/L and BMI<21 kg/m2 were identified to have an increased risk of incident dementia compared to those with LDL-C≥3.3 mmol/L and BMI≥21 kg/m2 (HR 3.33, 95%CI 1.64-6.78). CONCLUSIONS Our study showed that low BMI combined with low or high levels of serum lipids may increase the risk of dementia among older adults. This finding suggests the potential impacts of these two metabolic indexes on the risk of dementia.

Abstract
High-fat diet (HFD) consumption is known to be associated with ovulatory disorders among women of reproductive age. Previous studies in animal models suggest that HFD-induced microglia activation contributes to hypothalamic inflammation. This causes the dysfunction of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian (HPO) axis, leading to subfertility. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are a novel class of lipid-soluble antidiabetic drugs that target primarily the early proximal tubules in kidney. Recent evidence revealed an additional expression site of SGLT2 in the central nervous system (CNS), indicating a promising role of SGLT2 inhibitors in the CNS. In type 2 diabetes patients and rodent models, SGLT2 inhibitors exhibit neuroprotective properties through reduction of oxidative stress, alleviation of cerebral atherosclerosis and suppression of microglia-induced neuroinflammation. Furthermore, clinical observations in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) demonstrated that SGLT2 inhibitors ameliorated patient anthropometric parameters, body composition and insulin resistance. Therefore, it is of importance to explore the central mechanism of SGLT2 inhibitors in the recovery of reproductive function in patients with PCOS and obesity. Here, we review the hypothalamic inflammatory mechanisms of HFD-induced microglial activation, with a focus on the clinical utility and possible mechanism of SGLT2 inhibitors in promoting reproductive fitness.

Abstract
BackgroundUpadacitinib (UPA) was effective in global Phase 3 trials in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients (pts) with inadequate response (IR) to conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (csDMARDs).ObjectivesTo assess the efficacy and safety of UPA in csDMARD-IR pts with RA in Chinese subgroup from a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo (PBO)-controlled study (NCT02955212) 1.MethodsPts were randomized to 12 weeks of blinded treatment with UPA 15 mg once daily (QD) or PBO, in combination with csDMARDs. Primary and secondary endpoints were analyzed in a Chinese subgroup, including American College of Rheumatology criteria (ACR) responses, remission and low disease activity measures. Safety was analyzed for pts who received ≥1 dose of study drug.Results228 Chinese pts (67.5% of overall trial population) were randomized and took at least one dose of study drug. Baseline characteristics were generally balanced between UPA and PBO. 46% and 35.1% used methotrexate (MTX) alone as concomitant csDMARD in UPA and PBO group, respectively. 38.9% in UPA and 43.0% in PBO group used concomitant csDMARDs other than MTX and 15.0% and 21.9% respectively used a combination. At week 12, more Chinese pts receiving UPA achieved the primary endpoint of ACR20 compared with PBO (71.9% vs 31.6%, nominal p<0.001). UPA also showed greater improvements in all secondary endpoints vs PBO at Week 12 (Table 1), including ACR50 and ACR70, mean change in Disease Activity Score in 28 joints using C-reactive protein (DAS28-CRP), Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI), Short-Form 36-item Health Survey-Physical Component Summary (SF-36 PCS), as well as proportion of pts achieving low disease activity based on DAS28-CRP ≤3.2 and Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) ≤10, and clinical remission based on DAS28-CRP <2.6. Onset of response was rapid with more pts receiving UPA achieving ACR20 by Week 1 versus PBO (25.4% vs 5.3%, nominal p<0.001). Through Week 12 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) occurred in 57.9% of pts on UPA and 49.1% on PBO. The rate of pts with serious AEs (SAEs) was numerically higher with UPA than with PBO (6.1% vs 4.4%). TEAEs reported in ≥ 3% of subjects and with a higher rate on UPA vs. PBO were: upper respiratory tract infection, alanine aminotransferase increased, aspartate aminotransferase increased, hypertension, diarrhea, and leukopenia. Overall safety was consistent with the trial population1 and similar with the reported safety profile of the global clinical program2.Table 1.Summary of Efficacy Endpoint Results at Week 12 in Chinese SubgroupEndpoint aUPA 15mg (N=114)PBO (N=114)Primary endpointACR20, %71.9***31.6Secondary endpointsΔ DAS28-CRP-2.42***-0.75Δ HAQ-DI-0.55***-0.11Δ SF-36 PCS7.63 b***2.94 cDAS28-CRP ≤3.2, %46.5***9.6DAS28-CRP <2.6, %28.1***1.8CDAI ≤10, %33.3***7.0ACR50, %39.5***7.0ACR70, %16.7***2.6ACR20 at Week 1, %25.4***5.3***Nominal p<0.001 vs PBOaNon-responder imputation for binary endpoints; ANCOVA with multiple imputation for DAS28(CRP) and HAQ-DI; mixed model repeated measures for other continuous endpoints.

Abstract
Human neuroimaging studies have demonstrated that exercise influences the cortical structural plasticity as indexed by gray or white matter volume. It remains elusive, however, whether exercise affects cortical changes at the finer‐grained myelination structure level. To answer this question, we scanned 28 elite golf players in comparison with control participants, using a novel neuroimaging technique—quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (qMRI). The data showed myeloarchitectonic plasticity in the left temporal pole of the golf players: the microstructure of this brain region of the golf players was better proliferated than that of control participants. In addition, this myeloarchitectonic plasticity was positively related to golfing proficiency. Our study has manifested that myeloarchitectonic plasticity could be induced by exercise, and thus, shed light on the potential benefits of exercise on brain health and cognitive enhancement.

Abstract
Ovulatory disorders are the most common clinical feature exhibited among obese women. Initiation of ovulation physiologically requires a surge of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) released from GnRH neurons located in the hypothalamus. These GnRH neurons receive metabolic signals from circulation and vicinal neurons to regulate GnRH release. Leptin acts indirectly on GnRH via adjacent leptin receptor (LEPR)-expressing neurons such as proopiomelanocortin (POMC), neuropeptide Y (NPY)/agouti-related peptide (AgRP), and neuronal nitric oxide (NO) synthase (nNOS) neurons to affect GnRH neuronal activities. Additionally, hypothalamic inflammation also affects ovulation independent of obesity. Therefore, this review focuses on hypothalamic mechanisms that underlie the disturbance of hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian (HPO) axis during obesity with an attempt to promote future studies and/or novel therapeutic strategies for ovulatory disorders in obesity.

Abstract
Introduction: Little is known about outcomes associated with enoxaparin versus unfractionated heparin (UFH) for venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis in abdominal surgery patients in U.S. clinical practice. The purpose of this study was to compare VTE, all-cause mortality, PE-related in-hospital mortality, and hospital costs during abdominal surgery hospitalization and the 90 days post-discharge between patients who received enoxaparin versus UFH prophylaxis. Materials and Methods: Using the Premier Healthcare Database, abdominal surgery patients who received at least 1 day of VTE prophylaxis with enoxaparin or UFH were identified between January 1, 2010 and September 30, 2016. Clinical outcomes were assessed using multivariable logistic regression models and cost outcomes were assessed using generalized linear models. Results: Of 363,669 patients identified, 59% received enoxaparin and 41% UFH. In adjusted analyses, there were statistically significant lower odds of VTE (OR 0.80; 95% CI 0.65-0.97), all-cause mortality (OR 0.67; 95% CI 0.60-0.75), and major bleeding (OR 0.88; 95% CI 0.82-0.94) during the hospitalization for enoxaparin versus UFH, but no differences during the 90-days post-discharge or for PE-related mortality. There was a statistically significant lower total hospital cost with enoxaparin versus UFH during index hospitalization ($8,913 vs $9,017, P < .0001), but not post-discharge ($3,342 vs $3,368, P = .42). Unadjusted rates of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (index:0.1% vs 0.3%; post-discharge: 0.02% vs 0.06%) were reported for enoxaparin and UFH, respectively. Conclusion: In contemporary U.S. hospital practice, statistically significant lower odds of VTE, all-cause mortality and major bleeding with enoxaparin versus UFH prophylaxis were found during abdominal surgery hospitalizations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In spastic paraplegia type 5, spinal cord atrophy and white matter signal abnormalities in the brain are the main MR imaging alterations. However, the specific mechanism remains unclear. We explored the microstructural changes occurring in spastic paraplegia type 5 and assessed the relation between MR imaging and clinical data. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventeen patients with spastic paraplegia type 5 and 17 healthy controls were scanned with DTI and T1 mapping on a 3T MR imaging scanner. Fractional anisotropy, mean diffusivity, radial diffusivity, axial diffusivity, and T1 values were obtained using Tract-Based Spatial Statistics and the Spinal Cord Toolbox. Neurofilament light and myelin basic protein in the CSF were measured. The differences in MR imaging and biochemical data between patients with spastic paraplegia type 5 and healthy controls were compared using the Student t test. RESULTS A widespread reduction of fractional anisotropy values and an elevation of mean diffusivity, T1, and radial diffusivity values were found in most cervical, T4, and T5 spinal cords; corona radiata; optic radiations; and internal capsules in spastic paraplegia type 5. A variation in axial diffusivity values was shown only in C2, C6, and the corona radiata but not in the gray matter. The levels of neurofilament light and myelin basic protein were higher in those with spastic paraplegia type 5 than in healthy controls (myelin basic protein, 3507 [SD, 2291] versus 127 [SD, 219] pg/mL; neurofilament light, 617 [SD, 207] versus 265 [SD, 187] pg/mL; P < .001). No correlation was found between the clinical data and MR imaging-derived measures. CONCLUSIONS Multiparametric MR imaging and biochemical indicators demonstrated that demyelination (mainly) and axonal loss led to the white matter integrity loss without gray matter injury in spastic paraplegia type 5.

Abstract
Demyelination syndrome is one manifestation of neuropsychiatric lupus erythematosus (NPLE) and is rare in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). When SLE presents only neuropsychiatric symptoms without damage to other systems, its diagnosis becomes difficult. Herein, we report a 29-year-old male who suffered from lower limb stiffness with recessive onset and progressive aggravation in one year. He had paraplegia, spastic hypertonia, abnormal gait, and bilateral positive Babinski signs. His symptoms indicated spastic paraplegia. Brain MRI showed multiple small demyelinating lesions in the lateral ventricle, brainstem, and cerebellum. Anti-ds DNA, anti-Sm and anti-RNP antibodies were positive. He was diagnosed with NPLE and had a good treatment response to steroids. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of spastic paraplegia as the only manifestation in SLE.

Abstract
Background: Pyrotinib is a novel irreversible pan-ErbB receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Evidence of the efficacy of pyrotinib-based treatments for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) in patients exposed to lapatinib is limited. Methods: Ninety-four patients who received pyrotinib as a third- or higher-line treatment for HER2-positive MBC were included in this retrospective study. The primary and secondary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and progression‐free survival (PFS). Propensity score matching (PSM) and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) analysis were implemented to balance important patient characteristics between groups. Results: Thirty (31.9%) patients were pretreated with lapatinib and subsequently received pyrotinib as an anti-HER2 treatment, and 64 (68.1%) patients did not receive this treatment. The OS and PFS indicated a beneficial trend in lapatinib-naive group compared to lapatinib-treated group in either the original cohort (PFS: 9.02 vs 6.36 months, p = 0.05; OS: 20.73 vs 14.35 months, p = 0.08) or the PSM (PFS: 9.02 vs 6.08 months, p = 0.07; OS: 19.07 vs 18.00 months, p = 0.61) or IPTW (PFS: 9.90 vs 6.17 months, p = 0.05; OS: 19.53 vs 15.10 months, p = 0.08) cohorts. Subgroup analyses demonstrated lapatinib treatment-related differences in PFS in the premenopausal subgroup and the no prior trastuzumab treatment subgroup, but no significant differences were observed in OS. Conclusion: Pyrotinib-based therapy demonstrated promising effects in HER2-positive MBC patients in a real-world study, especially in lapatinib-naive patients, and also some activity in lapatinib-treated patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Research suggests that childhood psychological maltreatment (i.e., emotional abuse and emotional neglect) is associated with mental health problems that persist into adulthood, for example anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), suicidal ideation, and aggression; however, a systematic review and meta-analysis of the existing literature would help clarify the magnitude and moderators of these associations, and the extent to which they may be affected by publication bias, as well as the methodological strengths and weakness of studies in this area. METHOD The reporting of this protocol follows the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) Statement. Searches will be carried out via several databases, including Web of Science, Medline, PubMed, PsycINFO, Applied Social Science Index and Abstract, ERIC and EMBASE. Empirical peer-reviewed research articles that fit pre-specified eligibility criteria will be included in the review. Studies will be eligible if they include participants age 18 or over at time of mental health assessment, include information on childhood psychological maltreatment (emotional abuse and/or neglect) perpetrated by a primary caregiver or adult in the same household, and provide quantitative information on the association between these factors. Studies using prospective and retrospective designs and written in either English or Chinese will be eligible. Two independent reviewers will screen and assess studies for inclusion in the review as well as extract the data, with consensus reached through discussion in cases of discrepancy. A third reviewer will be consulted to resolve any discrepancies that remain. The relevant Newcastle-Ottawa scales will be used for assessing the quality of studies. If a sufficient number of comparable studies are retrieved, a meta-analysis will be conducted using a random effects model. Study-level moderators (i.e., year of publication, quality of the study and study geographical location) will be examined in the meta-analyses. DISCUSSION This systematic review will provide an understanding of the long-term effects of childhood psychological maltreatment on adult mental health, which adds to previous reviews focusing primarily on the effects of physical and sexual abuse. The results of the review will help inform clinical practice in approaches to treating those with a history of psychological maltreatment in childhood. The gaps and weaknesses in the evidence identified will also inform recommendations for future research.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the response characteristics of the secondary auditory cortex (A2) to wriggling calls (WC) and the mechanism of response modulation in female mice. METHODS We used patch-clamp and immunofluorescence labeling technique to mark and record the action potential and cell type of A2 neurons. Female C57 mice were stimulated with pure tone and white noise (control), 4.5 kHz, 9 kHz, or 13.5 kHz sound waves extracted from WC (single-frequency simulation group), the combinations of every two of the 3 single-frequency sound waves (two-tone frequency simulation group), or the combinations of 4.5 kHz+7.7 kHz+13.5 kHz and 4.5 kHz+9 kHz+13.5 kHz sound waves (three-frequency simulation group). The firing pattern, firing number, threshold, and latency of the action potential of the A2 neurons were recorded in response to the stimulations. RESULTS By comparison of the spikes elicited by different sound stimulations, we identified 3 types of neurons with different sensitivities to WC. The WC-sensitive neurons had a significantly greater number of spikes in response to WC than to other sounds and noise (P < 0.001). Comparison of the latency and threshold revealed significantly longer latencies of the WC-sensitive neurons and WC-insensitive neurons in response to WC stimulation than to pure tone stimulation (P=0.002), but their latencies to WC and noise stimulation were similar (P=0.093). The WC-sensitive neurons also had lower threshold to WC than to pure tone and noise stimulations (P=0.02). Analysis of the firing patterns of action potentials showed that the WCsensitive neurons consisted mainly of parvalbumin interneurons. The results of immunofluorescence labeling indicated that inhibitory interneurons were present in the A2 neurons that responded to WC. CONCLUSION A2 contains 3 types of neurons with different sensitivities to WC. Among them, the WC-sensitive neurons is mainly PV neurons, whose response characteristics to different types of sounds can help to explain the mechanism of communication sound recognition and response modification in A2.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We developed a hand-made silver container as a closed vitrification system (CVS) which avoid bacterial or viral contamination. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the preservation outcomes by comparing silver CVS and slow freezing (SF) method. MATERIALS AND METHODS Donated human ovarian tissues were collected from nine patients. The fragments from each patient were randomly and evenly assigned to three groups: fresh control, silver CVS and SF group. The histology of the thawed ovarian tissue was investigated and the levels of secretion of estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P4) in the culture media were used to evaluate the development and function of thawed ovarian tissue. RESULTS The results showed that the proportion of morphologically normal primordial follicles was higher in silver CVS group than in SF (P < 0.005). E2 and P4 concentrations were significantly higher in the silver CVS group than in the SF group at any time point after day 6 (E2: P < 0.05; P4: P < 0.05). CONCLUSION This study showed that human ovarian tissue cryopreserved with silver CVS had better morphology and higher E2 and P4 levels during in vitro ovarian tissue growth compared with SF. It implies that silver CVS has a better potential for ovarian tissue development in future clinical use.

Abstract
The Superconducting Analyzer for MUlti-particles from RAdioIsotope (SAMURAI) Pion-Reconstruction and Ion-Tracker Time Projection Chamber (SπRIT TPC) was designed to enable measurements of heavy ion collisions with the SAMURAI spectrometer at the RIKEN radioactive isotope beam factory and provides constraints on the equation of state of neutron-rich nuclear matter. The SπRIT TPC has a 50.5 cm drift length and an 86.4 × 134.4 cm2 pad plane with 12 096 pads that are equipped with the generic electronics for TPCs. The SπRIT TPC allows for an excellent reconstruction of particles and provides isotopic resolution for pions and other light charged particles across a wide range of energy losses and momenta. The details of the SπRIT TPC are presented, along with discussion of the TPC performance based on cosmic rays and charged particles emitted in heavy ion collisions.

Abstract
Background:Iguratimod (IGU) has demonstrated efficacy and safety for active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients in double-blind clinical trials in China and Japan as a new disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD). There are no studies evaluating the radiographic progression of structural joint damage of IGU for the treatment of RA using the mTSS as the primary endpoint.Objectives:Our study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of IGU monotherapy and IGU combined methotrexate (MTX) compared with MTX monotherapy, including the inhibitory effects of joint destruction.Methods:This randomized, double-blind, parallel-controlled, multicenter study in patients with active RA who have not previously used MTX and biological DMARDs (bDMARDs) (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier NCT01548001) was carried out in China. Patients were randomized 1:1:1 to receive IGU 25 mg twice a day (bid), MTX 10mg once a week(qw) for the first 4 weeks and 15 mg once a week(qw) for week 5 to 52, or IGU combined MTX (IGU+MTX) for 52 weeks. The primary endpoints were to assess and compare American College of Rheumatology 20% (ACR20) response and the change of modified total Sharp scoring (mTSS) score over 52 weeks (Intention-to-treat, ITT analysis). The non-inferiority test was used to analyze the difference of ACR20 response at 52 weeks between the IGU monotherapy and the MTX monotherapy arms, and the non-inferiority limit value was 10%. The difference test was used for the comparison between the IGU+MTX and MTX monotherapy arms. Two-way ANOVA was used to analyze the difference of the changes of mTSS score of each arm compared with baseline value (0 week).Results:A total of 895 patients were randomized to IGU 25mg bid (n =297), MTX 10-15mg qw(n=293), and IGU+MTX (n=305). Baseline characteristics were comparable between the arms (Table 1).Table 1.Demographic and Other Baseline Characteristics (SAS)IGUMTXIGU+MTXNumber of Subjects297293305Age, mean (SD) years46.87(10.67)47.63(10.70)48.37(10.69)Female/male, %77.44/22.5679.18/20.8278.03/21.97Duration of RA, mean(SD) years11.67±7.1611.60±7.9811.67±7.27CRP, mean(SD) mg/L222.32±35.4720.67±26.6119.74±31.38Tender joint count, mean (SD)14.59±9.1614.83±9.3014.93±9.88Swollen joint count, mean (SD)9.81±6.639.73±7.209.51±6.22DAS28-CRP, mean (SD)5.084±0.9945.102±0.9795.103±0.956HAQ score, mean (SD)15.82±11.2515.24±10.9316.06±10.92SAS: Safety Analysis Set; CRP: C-reactive protein;DAS28: disease activity score; HAQ: Health Assessment QuestionnaireThe study met its primary endpoints. More concretely, IGU monotherapy and IGU+MTX were found to be superior to MTX at week 52 with a higher ACR20 response of 77.44%(230/297, P=0.0019) and 77.05%(235/305, P=0.0028) versus 65.87%(193/293) (fig 1). As shown in fig 1, the structural remission (ΔmTSS≤0.5) was statistically significant for IGU monotherapy (57.4%, P=0.0308) but not for IGU+MTX arm (55%) versus MTX monotherapy (47.8%).Overall incidence of the adverse events (AEs) leading to study discontinuation were reported in 13.8% (41/297) in IGU monotherapy arm, 11.26% (33/293) in MTX monotherapy arm and 11.51% (35/305) patients in IGU+MTX arm. The incidence of adverse drug reactions (ADR) leading to study discontinuation were 11.45% (34/297), 8.53% (25/293) and 9.21% (28/305), respectively. There was no one death and no significant difference in all the safety indicators among the three arms.Conclusion:Iguratimod alone or in combination with MTX demonstrated superior efficacy with acceptable safety compared to MTX for patients with active RA who have not previously used MTX bDMARDs.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the effect of exenatide on the expression of ABCA1 and cholesterol metabolism in the pancreas of obese diabetic rats. OBJECTIVE Twenty-four normal male SD rats and 18 obese diabetic rats (induced by high-fat feeding and STZ injection) were both divided equally into 2 groups for injections of saline or exenatide. After treatment for a week, the expression of ABCA1, cholesterol metabolism, and islet function of the rats were examined using real-time PCR, Western blotting, oil red O staining, cholesterol content determination, and HE staining. OBJECTIVE The expressions of ABCA1 at both mRNA and protein levels in pancreatic tissue were significantly lower in obese diabetic rats than in normal SD rats. The obese diabetic rats showed obvious lipid deposition and increased cholesterol content in the pancreatic tissue with significantly reduced islet volume and structural changes (P < 0.05); exenatide treatment of the diabetic rats significantly up-regulated ABCA1 expression, reduced lipid deposition and cholesterol content in pancreatic tissue, and increased number and volume of the islets, which presented with more orderly alignment (P < 0.05). OBJECTIVE Obese diabetic rats have lowered ABCA1 expression, cholesterol efflux block, and cholesterol accumulation in the pancreatic tissue. Exenatide can up-regulate ABCA1 expression and promote cholesterol efflux to reduce cholesterol content in the pancreatic tissue and improve islet function in obese diabetic rats.

Abstract
Acupuncture, taking the advantage of modality-specific neural pathways, has shown promising results in the treatment of brain disorders that affect different modalities such as pain and vision. However, the precise underlying mechanisms of within-modality neuromodulation of acupoints on human high-order cognition remain largely unknown. In the present study, we used a non-invasive and easy-operating method, focused ultrasound, to stimulate two language-relevant acupoints, namely GB39 (Xuanzhong) and SJ8 (Sanyangluo), of thirty healthy adults. The effect of focused ultrasound stimulation (FUS) on brain activation was examined by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). We found that stimulating GB39 and SJ8 by FUS evoked overlapping but distinct brain activation patterns. Our findings provide a major step toward within-modality (in this case, language) acupoint-brain (acubrain) mapping and shed light on to the potential use of FUS as a personalized treatment option for brain disorders that affect high-level cognitive functions.

Abstract
The objective is to investigate the pathophysiological significance of Par3 and integrin β1 with regard to the functionality of the endometrial luminal epithelium (LE). Design: laboratory study; setting: university research laboratory. Analysis involved endometrial aspirates and endometrial adenocarcinoma cells (HEC-1A) and endometrial carcinoma cells (RL95-2). We first examined the expression and localization of Par3 and integrin β1 in HEC-1A cells and RL95-2 cells. Then we knocked down Par3 and integrin β1 in HEC-1A cells and RL95-2 cells, respectively, and found that Par3/integrin β1 affected embryo adhesion by regulating the intercellular tight junctions' (TJs') structure and thus the polarity of the endometrial LE. These findings were also confirmed in the endometrium specimens from human and mice. The main outcome measures were the expression and localization of Par3 and integrin β1 in the endometrial epithelial cell lines and endometrium specimens and the regulations of Par3 and integrin β1 on TJs, polarity, and embryo adhesion. Following the knockdown of Par3 in HEC-1A cells, there was a reduction in the complexity of the TJs and cell polarity, and the adhered blastocysts number was significantly increased. However, the reduction of integrin β1 in RL95-2 cells resulted in effects that directly opposed those following the knockdown of Par3 in HEC-1A cells. Estrogen and progesterone reduced the expression of Par3 and promoted the expression of integrin β1 in HEC-1A cells. Par3/integrin β1 regulates embryo adhesion by regulating intercellular TJs' structure and polarity of endometrial LE under the action of ovarian hormones.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the value of dual-energy (DE) computed tomography (CT) in discriminating early glottic squamous cell carcinoma (eGSCC) from chronic inflammation and leucoplakia of the vocal cord, and to compare the diagnostic efficiency of DECT with that of simulated conventional 120 kVp CT. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy patients with glottic lesions confirmed by histopathology (38 cases with eGSCC, 11 cases with chronic inflammation, 21 cases with leucoplakia) were enrolled in this prospective study. The DECT-derived parameters were measured and compared using independent sample t-test. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was performed to evaluate the diagnostic performance, and comparison of the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was made using the Z test to further select the best diagnostic parameters. RESULTS Significantly higher iodine concentration (IC), normalised IC (NIC), effective atomic number (Zeff), 40-100 keV (20 keV-interval), slope(k), and Mix-0.3 values were found in eGSCC than those in chronic inflammation, leucoplakia, and inflammation + leucoplakia (all p<0.05). Compared with attenuation measurement of simulated conventional 120 kVp CT, the NIC, 60 keV values derived from DECT showed significantly higher AUC in discriminating these glottic lesions (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS DECT is more accurate for differentiating eGSCC from chronic inflammation and leucoplakia when compared with simulated conventional 120 kVp CT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To understand in a mouse model whether there are differences in the decidua and live birth rate after transfer of blastocysts generated by in vitro fertilization (IVF) or by superovulation with spontaneous mating into unstimulated recipients. DESIGN Animal experiment. SETTING University-affiliated tertiary hospital. ANIMAL(S) Mice. INTERVENTION(S) IVF embryos were generated and cultured in either Whitten medium (WM, suboptimal conditions) and 20% O2 or KSOM medium with amino acids (KAA, optimal conditions) and 5% O2. The control blastocysts from superovulated mice were flushed out of the uterus 3.5 days (E3.5) after mating (FB group). The resulting blastocysts were transferred to nonsuperovulated CF1 recipients mated to vasectomized males. To understand whether anomalies of decidua were present, the expression of genes involved in decidual development and inflammation was analyzed at E7.5 and E18.5. Similarly, immunostaining was used to evaluate whether the pathways involved in activation of mTORC1 (p-S6) and Cox2 signaling (Cox 2 staining) were altered. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S) Live birth rate, gene expression, and immunostaining of decidua. RESULT(S) Implantation rates at E7.5 were similar, but in vivo embryos (FB groups) were predicted to result in live births 3.3 times higher (2.2-5.1) and 6.6 times higher (4.7-9.3) compared with optimal and suboptimal cultures, respectively. Expression of genes involved in decidual development and inflammation or localization and intensity of staining for p-S6 (mTOR pathway), or inflammation (Cox 2 pathway) were not different among the groups. CONCLUSION(S) The predicted live birth rate was decreased in mouse embryos generated by IVF compared with embryos generated by mating, whereas the implantation rate was not different. Suboptimal culture conditions resulted in lower birth rate. We did not find evidence of abnormalities in decidualization that could explain these findings. These data indicate that blastocysts cultured in stressful conditions are less competent, suggesting that decreasing the number of embryonic manipulations may result in higher live birth rates.
