Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests that tumor-specific neoantigens are ideal targets for cancer immunotherapy. However, how to predict tumor neoantigens based on translatome data remains obscure. Through the extraction of ribosome-nascent chain complexes (RNCs) from LLC cells, followed by RNC-mRNA extraction, RNC-mRNA sequencing, and comprehensive bioinformatic analysis, we successfully identified proteins undergoing translatome and exhibiting mutations in the cells. Subsequently, novel antigens identification was analyzed by the interaction between their high affinity and the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC). Neoantigens immunogenicity was analyzed by enzyme-linked immunospot assay (ELISpot). Finally, in vivo experiments in mice were conducted to evaluate the antitumor effects of translatome-derived neoantigen peptides on lung cancer. The results showed that ten neoantigen peptides were identified and synthesized by translatome data from LLC cells; 8 out of the 10 neoantigens had strong immunogenicity. The neoantigen peptide vaccine group exhibited significant tumor growth inhibition effect. In conclusion, neoantigen peptide vaccine derived from the translatome of lung cancer exhibited significant tumor growth inhibition effect.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the immunology shared mechanisms underlying chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and examine the impact of anti-diabetic drugs on acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD). METHODS We analyzed GSE76925, GSE76894, GSE37768, and GSE25724 to identify differentially expressed genes. Hub-genes were identified through protein-protein interaction network analysis and evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic curve. CXCL12 emerged as a robust biomarker, and its correlation with lung function and CD8+ T cells were further quantified and validated. The activated signaling pathways were inferred through Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). The retrospective clinical analysis was executed to identify the influence of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i) on CXCL12 and evaluate the drug's efficacy in AECOPD. RESULTS The significant up-regulation of CXCL12 expression in patients with two diseases were revealed. CXCL12 exhibited a negative correlation with pulmonary function (r = -0.551, p < 0.05). Consistent with analysis in GSE76925 and GSE76894, the positive correlation between the proportion of CD8+ T cells was demonstrated(r=0.469, p<0.05). GSEA identified "cytokines interaction" as an activated signaling pathway, and the clinical study revealed the correlation between CXCL12 and IL-6 (r=0.668, p<0.05). In patients with COPD and T2DM, DDP-4i treatment exhibited significantly higher serum CXCL12, compared to GLP-1RA. Analysis of 187 COPD patients with T2DM indicated that the DPP-4i group had a higher frequency of AECOPD compared to the GLP-1RA group (OR 1.287, 95%CI [1.018-2.136]). CONCLUSIONS CXCL12 may represent a therapeutic target for COPD and T2DM. GLP-1RA treatment may be associated with lower CXCL12 levels and a lower risk of AECOPD compared to DPP-4i treatment.

Abstract
Objective: To assess the effectiveness of a 6-month Ba Duan Jin exercise program in improving the balance of community-dwelling older adults. Methods: A two arms, parallel-group, cluster randomized controlled trial was conducted in 1 028 community residents aged 60-80 years in 40 communities in 5 provinces of China. Participants in the intervention group (20 communities, 523 people) received Ba Duan Jin exercise 5 days/week, 1 hour/day for 6 months, and three times of falls prevention health education, and the control group (20 communities, 505 people) received falls prevention health education same as the intervention group. The Berg balance scale (BBS) score was the leading outcome indicator, and the secondary outcome indicators included the length of time of standing on one foot (with eyes open and closed), standing in a tandem stance (with eyes open and closed), the closed circle test, and the timed up to test. Results: A total of 1 028 participants were included in the final analysis, including 731 women (71.11%) and 297 men (28.89%), and the age was (69.87±5.67) years. After the 3-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 3.05 (95%CI: 2.23-3.88) points (P<0.001). After the 6-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 4.70 (95%CI: 4.03-5.37) points (P<0.001). Ba Duan Jin showed significant improvement (P<0.05) in all secondary outcomes after 6 months of exercise in the intervention group compared with the control group. Conclusions: This study showed that Ba Duan Jin exercise can improve balance in community-dwelling older adults aged 60-80. The longer the exercise time, the better the improvement.

Abstract
The symptoms of children infected with SARS-CoV-2 are mainly asymptomatic, mild, moderate, and a few severe cases. To understand the immune response characteristics of children infected with SARS-COV-2 who do not develop severe cases, 82 children infected with the SARS-CoV-2 delta strain were recruited in this study. Our results showed that high levels of IgG, IgM, and neutralization antibodies appeared in children infected with SARS-CoV-2. SARS-CoV-2 induced upregulation of both pro-inflammatory factors including TNF-α and anti-inflammatory factors including IL-4 and IL-13 in the children, even IL-10. The expression of INF-α in infected children also showed a significant increase compared to healthy children. However, IL-6, one of the important inflammatory factors, did not show an increase in infected children. It is worth noting that a large number of chemokines reduced in the SARS-CoV-2-infected children. Subsequently, TCR Repertoire, TCRβ bias, and preferential usage were analyzed on data of TCR next-generation sequencing from 8 SARS-CoV-2-infected children and 8 healthy controls. We found a significant decrease in TCR clonal diversity and a significant increase in TCR clonal expansion in SARS-CoV-2-infected children compared to healthy children. The most frequent V and J genes in SARS-CoV-2 children were TRBV28 and TRBJ2-1. The most frequently VβJ gene pairing in SARS-CoV-2 infected children was TRBV20-1-TRBJ2-1. The strong antiviral antibody levels, low expression of key pro-inflammatory factors, significant elevation of anti-inflammatory factors, and downregulation of many chemokines jointly determine that SARS-CoV-2-infected children rarely develop severe cases. Overall, our findings shed a light on the immune response of non-severe children infected with SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract
The present study investigated the epidemiology and clinical characteristics of infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Omicron variant and determined the risk factors for delayed discharge or release from isolation for pediatric patients in Quanzhou, China in 2022. There were 145, 254 and 23 patients in the asymptomatic, mildly symptomatic and moderately symptomatic categories, respectively. The proportion of pediatric patients in the moderately symptomatic category increased with increasing age. No child aged <1 year and 9.02% of patients aged 13-18 years were in the moderately symptomatic category. The proportion of patients with asymptomatic infection did not differ significantly by vaccination status. The median days until the first negative conversion of viral RNA was 11 days, and the median hospitalization duration was 16 days. Most symptoms appeared in the upper respiratory tract. Notably, ~33.23% of patients showed elevated aspartate aminotransferase levels. C-reactive protein and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels, and lymphocyte counts were consistently lower in asymptomatic patients than those in in symptomatic patients. Adjusted logistic regression analyses indicated that IL-6 levels and time to the first negative conversion of viral RNA were independent risk factors for delayed discharge. The area under the curve of the regression model for predicting delayed discharge was 0.760. In conclusion, these results could facilitate the formulation of global epidemic prevention policies for pediatric patients.

Abstract
Clinically, a considerable number of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients are unable to receive or resist chemotherapy, and the efficacy of non-chemotherapy treatment strategies based on anti-angiogenic agents combined with immune checkpoint blockade is still unsatisfactory. Neoantigen vaccine, based on personalized tumor DNA mutations, could elicit tumor specific T cell infiltration into the tumor site, exerting potent anti-tumor efficacy. Here, we evaluated the feasibility and safety of a new antitumor strategy by adding neoantigen vaccine to the regimen of bevacizumab and anti-PD-1 antibody. Firstly, 7 novel immunogenic neoantigen peptides were identified and developed for neoantigen vaccine (LLCvac), which can elicit strong antitumor immune response in vivo. Then, in orthotopic lung cancer model, LLCvac further combining with bevacizumab and anti-PD-1 antibody exerted a stronger antitumor effect, exhibiting significant decrease of tumor volume without obvious toxicity. Furthermore, tumor immune microenvironment assessment also showed that the proportion of neoantigen-specific T cells in blood could be induced dramatically by the combined therapy. And a large amount of neoantigen-specific Ki67-positive CD8+ T cells were found in tumor tissues, which infiltrated tumor tissues effectively to kill tumor cells expressing identified neoantigens. Overall, these results suggested that this combined therapy could safely induce robust antitumor efficacy, serving as an effective chemotherapy-free strategy for NSCLC treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the context of increasing population aging, ongoing drug-resistant pathogens and the COVID-19 epidemic, the changes in the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of patients with pneumonia remain unclear. This study aimed to assess the trends in hospitalization, case fatality, comorbidities, and isolated pathogens of pneumonia-related adult inpatients in Guangzhou during the last decade. METHODS We retrospectively enrolled hospitalized adults who had doctor-diagnosed pneumonia in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2022. A natural language processing system was applied to automatically extract the clinical data from electronic health records. We evaluated the proportion of pneumonia-related hospitalizations in total hospitalizations, pneumonia-related in-hospital case fatality, comorbidities, and species of isolated pathogens during the last decade. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to assess predictors for patients with prolonged length of stay (LOS). RESULTS A total of 38,870 cases were finally included in this study, with 70% males, median age of 64 (53, 73) years and median LOS of 7.9 (5.1, 12.8) days. Although the number of pneumonia-related hospitalizations showed an upward trend, the proportion of pneumonia-related hospitalizations decreased from 199.6 per 1000 inpatients in 2013 to 123.4 per 1000 in 2021, and the case fatality decreased from 50.2 per 1000 in 2013 to 23.9 per 1000 in 2022 (all P < 0.05). The most common comorbidities were chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, lung malignancy, cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. The most common pathogens were Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans, Acinetobacter baumannii, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Staphylococcus aureus. Glucocorticoid use during hospitalization (Odd Ratio [OR] = 1.86, 95% Confidence Interval (CI): 1.14-3.06), immunosuppressant use during hospitalization (OR = 1.99, 1.14-3.46), ICU admission (OR = 16.23, 95%CI: 11.25-23.83), receiving mechanical ventilation (OR = 3.58, 95%CI: 2.60-4.97), presence of other underlying diseases (OR = 1.54, 95%CI: 1.15-2.06), and elevated procalcitonin (OR = 1.61, 95%CI: 1.19-2.19) were identified as independent predictors for prolonged LOS. CONCLUSION The proportion of pneumonia-related hospitalizations and the in-hospital case fatality showed downward trends during the last decade. Pneumonia inpatients were often complicated by chronic underlying diseases and isolated with gram-negative bacteria. ICU admission was a significant predictor for prolonged LOS in pneumonia inpatients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare the pre- and post-operative vestibular and equilibrium functions of patients with cholesteatoma-induced labyrinthine fistulas who underwent different management methods. METHODS Data from 49 patients with cholesteatoma-induced labyrinthine fistulas who underwent one of three surgical procedures were retrospectively analysed. The three management options were fistula repair, obliteration and canal occlusion. RESULTS Patients underwent fistula repair (n = 8), canal occlusion (n = 18) or obliteration procedures (n = 23). Patients in the fistula repair and canal occlusion groups suffered from post-operative vertigo and imbalance, which persisted for longer than in those in the obliteration group. Despite receiving different management strategies, all patients achieved complete recovery of equilibrium functions through persistent efforts in rehabilitation exercises. CONCLUSION Complete removal of the cholesteatoma matrix overlying the fistula is reliable for preventing iatrogenic hearing deterioration due to unremitting labyrinthitis. Thus, among the three fistula treatments, obliteration is the optimal method for preserving post-operative vestibular functions.

Abstract
PURPOSE In diagnosing the pathogenesis of Graves' orbitopathy (GO), there is a growing interest in fibrosis generated by orbital fibroblasts (OFs); nevertheless, the involvement of ceruloplasmin (CP) in OFs remains unknown. METHODS Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified through bioinformatic analysis. OFs were isolated from orbital tissue and identified with immunofluorescent staining. The levels of DEGs were validated in GO tissue samples and TGF-β-challenged OFs, and CP was selected for the following laboratory investigations. CP overexpression or knockdown was achieved, and cell viability and fibrosis-associated proteins were investigated to assess the cell phenotype and function. Signaling pathways were subsequently investigated to explore the mechanism of CP function in OFs. RESULTS CP and cathepsin C (CTSC) are two overlapped DEGs in GSE58331 and GSE105149. OFs were isolated and identified through fibrotic biomarkers. CP and CTSC were downregulated in GO tissue samples and TGF-β-challenged OFs. CP overexpression or knockdown was achieved in OFs by transducing a CP overexpression vector or small interfering RNA against CP (si1-CP or si2-CP) and verified using a qRT-PCR. CP overexpression inhibited cell viability and reduced the levels of α-SMA, vimentin, fibronectin, and collagen I, whereas CP knockdown exerted opposite effects on OFs. CP overexpression inhibited the phosphorylation of Smad3, Erk1/2, p38, JNK, and AKT; conversely, CP knockdown exerted opposite effects on the phosphorylation of factors mentioned above. CONCLUSION CP was downregulated in GO and suppressed the expression of fibrosis-associated proteins in both GO and normal OFs. CP might serve as a promising therapeutic agent in the treatment regimens for GO.

Abstract
Background Lung cancer combined by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (LC-COPD) is a common comorbidity and their interaction with each other poses significant clinical challenges. However, there is a lack of well-established consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of LC-COPD. Methods A panel of experts, comprising specialists in oncology, respiratory medicine, radiology, interventional medicine, and thoracic surgery, was convened. The panel was presented with a comprehensive review of the current evidence pertaining to LC-COPD. After thorough discussions, the panel reached a consensus on 17 recommendations with over 70% agreement in voting to enhance the management of LC-COPD and optimize the care of these patients. Results The 17 statements focused on pathogenic mechanisms (n=2), general strategies (n=4), and clinical application in COPD (n=2) and lung cancer (n=9) were developed and modified. These statements provide guidance on early screening and treatment selection of LC-COPD, the interplay of lung cancer and COPD on treatment, and considerations during treatment. This consensus also emphasizes patient-centered and personalized treatment in the management of LC-COPD. Conclusions The consensus highlights the need for concurrent treatment for both lung cancer and COPD in LC-COPD patients, while being mindful of the mutual influence of the two conditions on treatment and monitoring for adverse reactions.

Abstract
Introduction This study explored the differences in clinical characteristics between the 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) and SARS-CoV-2 BA.2 variant (Omicron) infections in patients younger than age 65 years, to improve identification of these diseases and better respond to the current epidemic. Methods Data from 127 patients with the 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) diagnosed between May and July of 2009 and 3,265 patients with Omicron diagnosed between March and May of 2022 were collected. Using a 1:2 match based on age (difference <2 years), sex, and underlying diseases, data from 115 patients with the 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) infection (H1N1 group) and 230 patients with SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.2 infection (Omicron group) were analyzed. The clinical manifestations were compared between the groups, logistic regression was performed to identify possible independent risk factors for each group, and multiple linear regression was used to analyze the factors predicting time for nucleic acid negativization (NAN). Results The median [interquartile range] age of the two groups was 21 [11, 26] years. Compared with the H1N1 group, the Omicron group had: lower white blood cell counts and C-reactive protein levels; less fever, nasal congestion, sore throat, cough, sputum, and headache; and more olfactory loss, muscle soreness, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) abnormalities. Patients in the Omicron group used fewer antibiotics and antiviral drugs, and the time for NAN was longer (17 [14,20] VS 4 [3,5] days, P<0.001). Logistic regression showed that fever, cough, headache, and increased white blood cell count were more strongly correlated with the H1N1 group, while muscle soreness and LDH abnormalities were more strongly correlated with the Omicron group. Fever (B 1.529, 95% confidence interval [0.149,2.909], P=0.030) significantly predicted a longer time for NAN in patients with Omicron. Discussion There are significant differences in clinical characteristics between SARS-CoV-2 Omicron infection and the 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) infection. Recognition of these differences has important implications for clinical practice.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection can cause persistent inflammatory response in human gastric mucosal epithelial cells, which may result in the occurrence of cancer. However, the underlying mechanism of carcinogenesis has not been elucidated yet. Herein, we established the models of chronic H. pylori infection in GES-1 cells and C57BL/6J mice. Interleukin 8 (IL-8) level was detected by ELISA. The expression of NF-κB p65, IL-8, Wnt2 and β-catenin mRNA and proteins was evaluated by real-time PCR, Western blotting, immunofluorescence staining, and immunohistochemistry. The infection of H. pylori in mice was evaluated by rapid urease test, H&E staining and Warthin-Starry silver staining. The morphological changes of gastric mucosa were observed by electron microscopy. Our results showed that in H. pylori infected gastric mucosal cells along with activation of NF-κB signaling pathway and increase of IL-8 level, the expression of Wnt2 was also increased significantly, which preliminarily indicates that IL-8 can positively regulate the expression of Wnt2. Studies in chronic H. pylori infected C57BL/6J mice models showed that there was an increased incidence of premalignant lesions in the gastric mucosa tissue. Through comparing changes of gastric mucosal cell ultrastructure and analyzing the relationship between NF-κB signaling pathway and Wnt2 expression, we found that H. pylori infection activated NF-κB signal pathways, and the massive release of IL-8 was positively correlated with the high expression of Wnt2 protein. Subsequently, the activated Wnt/β-catenin signal pathways may be involved in the malignant transformation of gastric mucosal cells. Collectively, H. pylori chronic infection may continuously lead to persistent inflammatory response: activate NF-κB pathway, promote IL-8 release and thereby activate Wnt/β-catenin pathway. IL-8 probably plays an important role of a linker in coupling these two signal pathways.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To observe the effect of Shenbing Decoction Ⅲ for improving renal function and pathology in rats with 5/6 nephrectomy and analyze its therapeutic mechanism for renal fibrosis in chronic kidney disease using network pharmacology combined with molecular docking. METHODS Forty male SD rats were randomized into two groups to receive two-staged 5/6 nephrectomy (n=30) or sham operation (n=10), and 2 weeks after the final operation, serum creatinine level of the rats was measured. The rats with nephrectomy were further randomized into Shenbing Decoction Ⅲ group, losartan group and model group for daily treatment with the corresponding drugs via gavage starting at 1 week after 5/6 nephrectomy. After 16 weeks of treatment, serum creatinine and urea nitrogen levels of the rats were measured, and HE staining and Western blotting were used to examine the changes in renal pathology and fibrosis-related factors. Network pharmacology combined with molecular docking study was performed to explore the therapeutic mechanism Shenbing Decoction Ⅲ against renal fibrosis in chronic kidney disease, and Western blotting was used to verify the expressions of the core targets. RESULTS Compared with those in the model group, the rats receiving 5/6 nephrectomy and Shenbing Decoction Ⅲ treatment showed significantly reduced serum creatinine and urea nitrogen levels, lessened renal pathologies, and improvement of the changes in epithelial mesenchymal transition-related proteins. Network pharmacological analysis showed that the main active ingredients of Shenbing Decoction Ⅲ were acacetin, apigenin, eupatilin, quercetin, kaempferol and luteolin, and the key targets included STAT3, SRC, CTNNB1, PIK3R1 and AKT1. Molecular docking study revealed that the active ingredients of Shenbing Decoction Ⅲ had good binding activity to the key targets. Western blotting showed that in rats with 5/6 nephrectomy, treatment with Shenbing Decoction Ⅲ obviously restored the protein expression of STAT3, PI3K, and AKT in renal tissue. CONCLUSION Shenbing Decoction Ⅲ can reduce renal injury induced by 5/6 nephrectomy in rats, and its therapeutic effects are mediated possibly by its main pharmacologically active ingredients that alleviate renal fibrosis via modulating multiple targets including STAT3, PIK3R1, and AKT1.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the present situation of pelvic floor muscle strength, and to analyze the factors affecting pelvic floor muscle strength. Methods: The data of patients who were admitted into the general outpatient department of gynecology, Peking University People's Hospital from October 2021 to April 2022 were collected, and the patients who met the exclusion criteria were included in this cross sectional study. The patient's age, height, weight, education level, defecation way and defecation time, birth history, maximum newborn birth weight, occupational physical activity, sedentary time, menopause, family history and disease history were recorded by questionnaire. Morphological indexes such as waist circumference, abdomen circumference and hip circumference were measured with tape measure. Handgrip strength level was measured with grip strength instrument. After performing routine gynecological examinations, the pelvic floor muscle strength was evaluated by palpation with modified Oxford grading scale (MOS). MOS grade>3 was taken as normal group and ≤3 as decreased group. Binary logistic regression was used to investigate the related factors of deceased pelvic floor muscle strength. Results: A total of 929 patients were included in the study, and the average MOS grade was 2.8±1.2. By univariate analysis, birth history, menopausal time, defecation time, handgrip strength level, waist circumference and abdominal circumference were related to the decrease of pelvic floor muscle strength (all P<0.05). By binary logistic regression analysis, the level of handgrip strength (OR=0.913, 95%CI: 0.883-0.945; P<0.001) was correlated with normal pelvic floor muscle strength; waist circumference (OR=1.025, 95%CI: 1.005-1.046; P=0.016), birth history (OR=2.224, 95%CI: 1.570-3.149; P<0.001), sedentary time> 8 hours (OR=2.073, 95%CI: 1.198-3.587; P=0.009) were associated with the decrease of pelvic floor muscle strength. Conclusions: The level of handgrip strength is related to the normal pelvic floor muscle strength of females, while the waist circumference, birth history and sedentary time>8 hours are related to the decrease of pelvic floor muscle strength of females. In order to prevent the decrease of pelvic floor muscle strength, it is necessary to carry out relevant health education, enhance exercise, improve the overall strength level, reduce daily sedentary time, maintain symmetry, and carry out comprehensive overall intervention to improve pelvic floor muscle function.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) encompasses a spectrum of pathologies that includes steatosis, steatohepatitis (NASH) and fibrosis and is strongly associated with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Changes in mitochondrial function are implicated in the pathogenesis of NAFLD, particularly in the transition from steatosis to NASH. Mitophagy is a mitochondrial quality control mechanism that allows for the selective removal of damaged mitochondria from the cell via the autophagy pathway. While past work demonstrated a negative association between liver fat content and rates of mitophagy, when changes in mitophagy occur during the pathogenesis of NAFLD and whether such changes contribute to the primary endpoints associated with the disease are currently poorly defined. We therefore undertook the studies described here to establish when alterations in mitophagy occur during the pathogenesis of NAFLD, as well as to determine the effects of genetic inhibition of mitophagy via conditional deletion of a key mitophagy regulator, PARKIN, on the development of steatosis, insulin resistance, inflammation and fibrosis. We find that loss of mitophagy occurs early in the pathogenesis of NAFLD and that loss of PARKIN accelerates the onset of key NAFLD disease features. These observations suggest that loss of mitochondrial quality control in response to nutritional stress may contribute to mitochondrial dysfunction and the pathogenesis of NAFLD.

Abstract
Acquired digestive-respiratory tract fistulas occur with abnormal communication between the respiratory tract and digestive tract caused by a variety of benign or malignant diseases, leading to the alimentary canal contents in the respiratory tract. Although various departments have been actively exploring advanced fistula closure techniques, including surgical methods and multimodal therapy, some of which have gotten good clinical effects, there are few large-scale evidence-based medical data to guide clinical diagnosis and treatment. The guidelines update the etiology, classification, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and management of acquired digestive-respiratory tract fistulas. It has been proved that the implantation of the respiratory and digestive stent is the most important and best treatment for acquired digestive-respiratory tract fistulas. The guidelines conduct an in-depth review of the current evidence and introduce in detail the selection of stents, implantation methods, postoperative management and efficacy evaluation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) is one of the most common opportunistic infections in immunocompromised patients. However, the accurate prediction of the development of PJP in non-HIV immunocompromised patients is still unclear. METHODS Non-HIV immunocompromised patients confirmed diagnosis of PJP by the clinical symptoms, chest computed tomography and etiological results of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) were enrolled as observation group. Another group of matched non-HIV immunocompromised patients with non-PJP pneumonia were enrolled to control group. The risk factors for the development of PJP and the co-pathogens in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) detected by mNGS were analyzed. RESULTS: A total of 67 (33 PJP, 34 non-PJP) participants were enrolled from Fujian Provincial Hospital. The ages, males and underlying illnesses were not significantly different between the two groups. Compared to non-PJP patients, PJP patients were more tends to have the symptoms of fever and dyspnea. The LYM and ALB were significantly lower in PJP patients than in non-PJP patients. Conversely, LDH and serum BDG in PJP patients were significantly higher than in non-PJP controls. For immunological indicators, the levels of immunoglobulin A, G, M and complement C3, C4, the numbers of T, B, and NK cells, had no statistical difference between these two groups. Logistic multivariate analysis showed that concomitant use of corticosteroids and immunosuppressant (OR 14.146, P = 0.004) and the lymphocyte counts < 0.7 × 109/L (OR 6.882, P = 0.011) were risk factors for the development of PJP in non-HIV immunocompromised patients. 81.82% (27/33) and 64.71% (22/34) mixed infections were identified by mNGS in the PJP group and non-PJP group separately. CMV, EBV and Candida were the leading co-pathogens in PJP patients. The percentages of CMV and EBV identified by mNGS in PJP group were significantly higher than those in the control group(p < 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: Clinicians should pay close attention to the development of PJP in non-HIV immunocompromised patients who possess the risk factors of concomitant use of corticosteroids and immunosuppressant and the lymphocyte counts < 0.7 × 109/L. Prophylaxis for PJP cannot rely solely on CD4+ T counts in non-HIV immunocompromised patients. Whether CMV infection increases the risk of PJP remains to be further investigated.

Abstract
OBJECT This study attempted to explore the effects of vaccination on disease severity and the factors for viral clearance and hospitalization in omicron-infected patients. METHODS The clinical manifestations of 3,265 Omicron-infected patients (BA.2 lineage variant; the Omicron group) were compared with those of 226 Delta-infected patients (the Delta group). A Multi-class logistic regression model was employed to analyze the impacts of vaccination doses and intervals on disease severity; a logistic regression model to evaluate the risk factors for hospitalization; R 4.1.2 data analysis to investigate the factors for time for nucleic acid negativization (NAN). RESULTS Compared with the Delta group, the Omicron group reported a fast transmission, mild symptoms, and lower severity incidence, and a significant inverse correlation of vaccination dose with clinical severity (OR: 0.803, 95%CI: 0.742-0.868, p<0.001). Of the 7 or 5 categories of vaccination status, the risk of severity significantly decreased only at ≥21 days after three doses (OR: 0.618, 95% CI: 0.475-0.803, p<0.001; OR: 0.627, 95% CI: 0.482-0.815, p<0.001, respectively). The Omicron group also reported underlying illness as an independent factor for hospitalization, sore throat as a protective factor, and much shorter time for NAN [15 (12,19) vs. 16 (12,22), p<0.05]. NAN was associated positively with age, female gender, fever, cough, and disease severity, but negatively with vaccination doses. CONCLUSION Booster vaccination should be advocated for COVID-19 pandemic-related control and prevention policies and adequate precautions should be taken for patients with underlying conditions.

Abstract
Objective: To explore clinicopathological features of low-grade oncocytic tumor (LOT) of the kidney and to analyze its relationship to hybrid oncocytic/chromophobe tumor (HOCT) of the kidney, renal oncocytoma (RO), and chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (chRCC). Methods: Seven LOTs were identified from the pathologic archives of two hospitals, including Xiangya Hospital (5 cases) and the Second Xiangya Hospital (2 cases) of Central South University between 2012 and 2019. Clinical data of the LOTs were collected. The tumor morphology was analyzed and immunohistochemistry was performed. Results: All LOTs occurred in adults, aged from 49 to 72 years (median 56.0 years, mean 60.7 years). The tumor size ranged from 2.5 to 6.0 cm (median 4.3 cm, mean 4.3 cm). There were three male and four female patients. Three cases occurred in the left kidney and four in the right. All the tumors were solitary lesions without the clinicopathologic background of Birt-Hogg-Dubé (BHD) syndrome or oncocytosis. Five patients had available follow-up data (follow-up period 23-95 months, median 69.0 months, mean 64.6 months) and all were alive without disease. Microscopically, all LOTs were well-circumscribed (7/7). Three LOTs were partly encapsulated. The tumors demonstrated a predominant growth pattern comprising prominently compact small nests surrounded by delicately branching thin-walled blood vessels, imparting an organoid architecture (7/7), but variable numbers of glandular or gland-like structures were often seen among the small nests (7/7). There were frequently areas with loose, edematous stroma, and the tumor cells exhibited reticular, trabecular, or single cell arrangements (6/7). Focal hemorrhage was also commonly present in both compact and loose areas (5/7). In addition, focally cystic formation and ossification occurred in the compact area of one case and in the loose area of another case. The tumor cells in LOT showed intermediate cytologic characteristics between RO and chRCC, including abundantly eosinophilic granular cytoplasm, ovoid to round nuclei with mostly smooth contours, discernable small nucleoli (RO features), frequently delicate perinuclear halos, and occasional binucleation (chRCC features). The tumors were typically CK7-positive and CD117-negative (7/7), and variable staining for PAX8 (5/7), P504s (2/7), and vimentin (1/7). They were negative for CK20, CD10 and FOXI1. All tumors retained SDHB immunostaining. Conclusions: LOT is a rare and indolent oncocytic renal tumor with homogeneously intermediate cytologic features between RO and chRCC. There are some clinicopathologic overlaps between LOT and sporadic HOCT. The distinctive morphology and immunophenotype of LOT suggest that it is potentially a distinct tumor entity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We propose that MuSC-derived myoblasts in PAD have transcriptomic differences that can highlight underlying causes of ischemia-induced myopathy. METHODS Differentiation capacity among perfused and ischemic human myoblasts was compared. Following next generation sequencing of mRNA, Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) was performed for canonical pathway enrichment. Live cell imaging and immunofluorescence were performed to determine myocyte fusion index and protein expression based on insights from IPA, specifically concerning cell cycle regulators including cell-division cycle protein 2 (CDC2) and polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1). RESULTS Ischemic myoblasts formed attenuated myotubes indicative of reduced fusion. Additionally, myoblasts from ischemic segments showed significant differences in canonical pathways associated with PLK1 (upregulated) and G2/M DNA damage checkpoint regulation (downregulated). PLK1 inhibition with BI2536 did not affect cell viability in any group over 24 h but deterred fusion more significantly in PAD myoblasts. Furthermore, PLK1 inhibition reduced the expression of checkpoint protein CDC2 in perfused but not ischemic cells. CONCLUSION Differentiating myoblasts derived from ischemic muscle have significant differences in gene expression including those essential to DNA-damage checkpoint regulation and cell cycle progress. DNA-damage checkpoint dysregulation may contribute to myopathy in PAD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the effects of ipratropium bromide combined with non-invasive ventilation for patients with both chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and respiratory failure. METHODS A total of 110 patients with both COPD and respiratory failure who were admitted to our hospital from April 2018 to August 2019 were enrolled in this study; of which 52 patients were treated with a noninvasive ventilator as Group A, and the rest were treated with ipratropium bromide combined with noninvasive ventilation as Group B. The two groups were compared for blood gas indexes, pulmonary function, and treatment efficacy, and adverse reactions. RESULTS After treatment, Group B showed better blood gas indexes and pulmonary function than Group A (both P < 0.05), and Group B also showed significantly lower levels of inflammatory factors than Group A (P < 0.05). In addition, the efficacy and life quality of Group B were better than those of Group A, and adverse reactions of Group B were less than those of Group A (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Ipratropium bromide combined with noninvasive ventilation is effective in the treatment of patients with both COPD and respiratory failure.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the necessity of Covid-19 vaccination in children aged < 12 y by comparing the clinical characteristics between unvaccinated children aged < 12 y and vaccinated patients aged ≥ 12y during the Delta surge (B.1.617.2) in Putian, Fujian, China. Methods A total of 226 patients with SARS-Cov-2 Delta variant (B.1.167.2; confirmed by Real-time PCR positivity and sequencing) were enrolled from Sep 10th to Oct 20th, 2021, including 77 unvaccinated children (aged < 12y) and 149 people aged ≥ 12y, mostly vaccinated. The transmission route was explored and the clinical data of two groups were compared; The effect factors for the time of the nucleic acid negativization (NAN) were examined by R statistical analysis. Results The Delta surge in Putian spread from children in schools to factories, mostly through family contact. Compared with those aged ≥ 12y, patients aged < 12y accounted for 34.07% of the total and showed milder fever, less cough and fatigue; they reported higher peripheral blood lymphocyte counts [1.84 (1.32, 2.71)×10^9/L vs. 1.31 (0.94, 1.85)×10^9/L; p<0.05), higher normal CRP rate (92.21% vs. 57.72%), lower IL-6 levels [5.28 (3.31, 8.13) vs. 9.10 (4.37, 15.14); p<0.05]. Upon admission, their COVID19 antibodies (IgM and IgG) and IgG in convalescence were lower [0.13 (0.00, 0.09) vs. 0.12 (0.03, 0.41), p<0.05; 0.02 (0.00, 0.14) vs. 1.94 (0.54, 6.40), p<0.05; 5.46 (2.41, 9.26) vs. 73.63 (54.63, 86.55), p<0.05, respectively], but longer NAN time (18 days vs. 16 days, p=0.13). Conclusion Unvaccinated children may be an important link in the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 delta variant (B1.617.2), which indicated an urgent need of vaccination for this particular population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE As a traditional herbal medicine extracted from the seeds of Brucea javanica, Brucea javanica oil (BJO) has been clinically used to treat wart, chronic gastroenteritis and a variety of malignant tumors, including gastrointestinal cancer and lung cancer. We have recently reported the anti-tumor role and possible molecular mechanisms of BJO in treatment of lung cancer. However, it remains elusive whether BJO also has an anti-inflammatory effect. METHODS The pneumonia-related inflammatory factors of macrophages under LPS treatment were investigated by real-time PCR and ELISA assays. LPS-induced acute pneumonia rat model was established. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) examination was performed to detect histopathological changes in the lung tissues. Real-time PCR and ELISA assays were also used to detect the pneumonia-related inflammatory factors in lung tissues. RESULTS LPS-induced expression and secretion of pneumonia-related inflammatory factors (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-8) were significantly suppressed by BJO in a concentration-dependent manner in RAW264.7 cells. However, BJO did not affect cell proliferation and survival rate. Further mechanistic studies revealed that BJO down-regulated the phosphorylation of IκB and p65, thereby inhibiting NF-κB pathway of macrophages and exerting its anti-inflammatory function. Western blot analysis showed that the phosphorylation levels of IκB and p65 were significantly up-regulated while the protein level of IκB was inhibited upon LPS stimulation in RAW264.7 cells and in lung tissue. Notably, LPS stimulation levels of IκB and p65 were effectively reversed under BJO co-treatment. The expression level of p65 was not influenced by LPS and BJO treatment. HE staining results showed that BJO can reduce the infiltration of inflammatory cells in lung. CONCLUSION BJO can reduce the level of inflammatory factors in lung tissue, which provides a theoretical basis for BJO emulsion as an adjuvant therapy for pneumonia.

Abstract
Background Lung cancer is one of the most common malignancies, and there is a trend of increasing incidence in young patients. The preoperative diagnosis of pulmonary nodules is mainly based on the combination of imaging and tumor markers. There is no relevant report on the diagnostic value of tumor markers in young pulmonary nodules. Our study was designed to explore the value of five tumor markers in young patients with pulmonary nodules. Methods We reviewed the medical records of 390 young patients (age ≤45 years) with pulmonary nodules treated at two separate centers from January 1, 2015, to January 1, 2021. Malignant pulmonary nodules were confirmed in 318 patients, and the other 72 patients were diagnosed with benign pulmonary nodules. The gold standard for diagnosis of pulmonary nodules was surgical biopsy. The conventional serum biomarkers included cytokeratin 19 (CYFRA21‐1), pro‐gastrin‐releasing‐peptide (ProGRP), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), neuron‐specific enolase (NSE), and squamous cell carcinoma‐associated antigen (SCCA). The diagnostic values of five tumor markers were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results There were no significant differences in the expression of five tumor markers between the groups (p > 0.05). Single tumor marker (CYFRA21‐1, ProGRP, CEA, NSE, and SCCA) showed a limited value in the diagnosis of malignant pulmonary nodules, with the AUC of 0.506, 0.503 0.532, 0.548, and 0.562, respectively. The AUC of the combined examination was only 0.502~0.596, which did not improve the diagnostic value. Conclusions Five conventional tumor markers had a limited diagnostic value in young patients with pulmonary nodules.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We examined the mediation effects of psychosocial adjustment on the impact of playmate positive support throughout childhood and early adolescence (from age 54 months to 11 years) on later body mass index (BMI) and overweight risk in middle adolescence (age 15 years). STUDY DESIGN This was a prospective cohort study. METHODS Among 844 children and their families, positive support between child-playmate dyads was repeatedly assessed from child's age 54 months to Grade 5. Long-term positive support between child-playmate dyads throughout childhood and early adolescence was prospectively linked to child's BMI and overweight/obesity status at age 15 years. The average scores of repeated assessments of internalizing and externalizing behavior problems from Grades 3 to 6 were used as mediators. RESULTS Significant mediations of internalizing and externalizing behavior problems were observed on pathways from positive support between child-playmate dyads to later BMI and overweight/obesity status at age 15 years. The observed mediations were mainly sustained with pronounced magnitudes in girls, but not in boys. CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrated a significant mediating role of psychosocial adjustment. Future research efforts are highly encouraged to replicate our findings and further explore this underlying mediation mechanism.

Abstract
Abstract Objective To study the changes of metabolites in serum and tissues (kidney, liver and heart) of mice died of acute tetracaine poisoning by metabolomics, to search for potential biomarkers and related metabolic pathways, and to provide new ideas for the identification of cause of death and research on toxicological mechanism of acute tetracaine poisoning. Methods Forty ICR mice were randomly divided into control group and acute tetracaine poisoning death group. The model of death from acute poisoning was established by intraperitoneal injection of tetracaine, and the metabolic profile of serum and tissues of mice was obtained by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-electrostatic field orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-Orbitrap HRMS). Multivariate statistical principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least square-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were used, combined with t-test and fold change to identify the differential metabolites associated with death from acute tetracaine poisoning. Results Compared with the control group, the metabolic profiles of serum and tissues in the mice from acute tetracaine poisoning death group were significantly different. Eleven differential metabolites were identified in serum, including xanthine, spermine, 3-hydroxybutylamine, etc.; twenty-five differential metabolites were identified in liver, including adenylate, adenosine, citric acid, etc.; twelve differential metabolites were identified in heart, including hypoxanthine, guanine, guanosine, etc; four differential metabolites were identified in kidney, including taurochenodeoxycholic acid, 11, 12-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid, dimethylethanolamine and indole. Acute tetracaine poisoning mainly affected purine metabolism, tricarboxylic acid cycle, as well as metabolism of alanine, aspartic acid and glutamic acid. Conclusion The differential metabolites in serum and tissues of mice died of acute tetracaine poisoning are expected to be candidate biomarkers for this cause of death. The results can provide research basis for the mechanism and identification of acute tetracaine poisoning.

Abstract
Purpose Etanercept (ETN), a tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) inhibitor, has been applied in the treatment of many diseases. However, whether it has effects on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and its interaction with tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) remained unknown. Methods Histopathological analysis of lung tissues from non-smokers and smokers with or without COPD was conducted using hematoxylin–eosin (H&E) staining, Van Gieson (VG) staining, and terminal transferase-mediated biotin dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL). TNF-α content was measured using Immunohistochemistry. Correlation analysis among apoptosis rate, smoke index, the FEV1/FVC ratio, and TNF-α-positive cells was performed. After ETN treatment and transfection of overexpressed or silenced TNFR1, levels of inflammatory cytokines, apoptosis and related genes expressions in cigarette smoke extract (CSE)-treated human pulmonary artery endothelial cells (HPAECs) were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), Hoechst 33342 staining, flow cytometry, quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blot. Results Pulmonary arterial remodeling and increased apoptotic and TNF-α+ HPAECs were found in lung tissue of smokers with or without COPD, with higher degrees in smokers with COPD. The numbers of apoptotic and TNF-α+ HPAECs were positively correlated with smoke index, while the FEV1/FVC ratio was negatively correlated with apoptotic HPAECs. In HPAECs, ETN downregulated the expressions of proteins related to CSE-induced apoptosis and the TNF receptor family, decreased CSE-induced cell apoptosis and inflammatory cytokine levels, and inhibited TNFR1 expression and p65 phosphorylation. Overexpressed TNFR1 reversed the effects of ETN on CSE-treated HPAECs, whereas silencing TNFR1 did the opposite. Conclusion ETN protected HPAECs against CSE-induced inflammation and apoptosis via downregulating TNFR1, thus providing a potential therapy for smoking-induced COPD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Tumor metastasis remains the main cause for the cancer-associated death of human non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). Many studies have verified that microRNAs (miRNAs) exert crucial functions in the development of NSCLC. Nevertheless, the functions of miR-139-3p in NSCLC remain unexplored. PATIENTS AND METHODS The quantitative Real Time-PCR (qRT-PCR) assay was applied to assess the level of miR-139-3p and ELAV like RNA binding protein 1 (ELAVL1) in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. The growth of NSCLC cell was analyzed using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium (MTS) assay and colony formation assay. The migration ability and invasiveness of NSCLC cells were analyzed using wound healing and transwell invasion analysis. The expression of ELAVL1 was determined by immunoblotting assay. The growth of NSCLC cell in vivo was assessed using xenograft model. RESULTS We uncovered that miR-139-3p was down expressed in NSCLC. MiR-139-3p repressed NSCLC cell growth, migration as well as invasion in vitro, and suppressed the progression of NSCLC cell in vivo. Mechanistically, ELAVL1 was proved as a downstream target of miR-139-3p. The level of ELAVL1 was upregulated in NSCLC and inversely associated with miR-139-3p level. Immunoblotting assay suggested that ELAVL1 was negatively modulated by miR-139-3p in NSCLC cell. In vivo, miR-139-3p repressed NSCLC cell growth and metastasis. Several recuse assays revealed that ELAVL1 mediated the inhibitory actions of miR-139-3p on the growth and metastatic-related traits of NSCLC cell. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that miR-139-3p acts as a suppressor in modulating the aggressiveness of NSCLC via regulating ELAVL1.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In recent years, studies have shown that noncoding RNA (circRNA) is an important regulatory molecule involved in cell physiology and pathology. Herein, we analyzed the role of circRNA-68566 in the regulation of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by regulating miR-6322/PARP2 signaling pathway. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cell viability was checked by CCK-8; LDH concentration, ROS production, MDA, SOD and GSH-Px were measured by corresponding kits; QPCR was used to inspect the expression of circRNA-0068566 and miR-6322 in I/R injury and H9C2 cells; luciferase reporter assay confirmed the direct target effect of circRNA-0068566 and miR-6322; Western blot was used to investigate PARP2 protein expression in I/R injury and H9C2 cells. RESULTS We analyzed the regulatory effect of circRNA-68566 on I/R injury and found that circRNA-68566 promoted the proliferation of injured cardiomyocytes in vitro and in vivo. circRNA-68566 and miR-6322 were directly combined to regulate the development of I/R injury. We also confirmed that PARP2 was the target of miR-6322 in I/R injury. CONCLUSIONS We believed that circRNA-68566 participated in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury by regulating miR-6322/PARP2 signaling pathway, which provided a new possible strategy for the treatment of I/R injury.

Abstract
Down-regulated miR-223-3p was found in rheumatoid arthritis. This study aimed to further explore the level and role of miR-223-3p in gout arthritis (GA). After monosodium urate (MSU)-induced GA rat and fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) models were established, the rat paw volume and gait score were documented and the FLSs were transfected with miR-223-3p mimic/inhibitor or NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) over-expression plasmids. The MiR-223-3p target was found through bioinformatics and the dual-luciferase reporter. The rat joint pathological damage was observed by hematoxylin and eosin staining. The levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and articular elastase in rats were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The viability and pyroptosis of FLSs were detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) and flow cytometry. The expressions of miR-223-3p, NLRP3, cleaved caspase-1, IL-1β, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (AS) and cleaved N-terminal gasdermin D (GSDMD) in FLSs or rat synovial tissues were detected by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), immunofluorescence, Western blot or immunohistochemistry analysis. MSU increased the paw volume, gait score, inflammation in synovial tissues and increased the levels of IL-1β, TNF-α and articular elastase in rats. MSU decreased the viability and increased the pyroptosis of FLSs, up-regulated the expression of NLRP3, ASC, cleaved caspase-1, cleaved N-terminal GSDM, and IL-1β, and down-regulated miR-223-3p expression in synovial tissues of rat joints and FLSs. MiR-223-3p mimic reversed the effect of MSU on lowering cell viability, increasing pyroptosis in FLSs, while miR-223-3p inhibitor further enhanced the effect of MSU on FLSs. NLRP3 was a target of miR-223-3p. Also, NLRP3 over-expression reversed the effects of miR-223-3p on MSU-induced FLSs. MiR-223-3p inhibited pyroptosis in MSU-induced rats and FLSs by targeting NLRP3.

Abstract
Many cases of novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) have confirmed in many countries around the world. Due to the disorders of the immune system, diabetic patients are more likely to suffer from severe COVID-19. Glucagon-like peptide 1 analogues (GLP-1 analogues) commonly can be used to reduce blood sugar. There is no clear evidence that it can be safely and effectively used in patients with diabetes merged severe COVID-19. In this case, we described A 65-year-old male with hypertension and diabetes was diagnosed with severe COVID-19, he took liraglutide at doses ranging from 0.8 to 1.8 mg. Before admission, liraglutide was not used to reduce blood glucose. Hydroxychloroquine sulfate and abidol were used to antivirus and supportive treatment were used simultaneously during hospitalization. During treatment, the patient's own state was paid attention to, and blood glucose, liver function, kidney function, white blood cells, lymphocytes and other indicators were checked and chest CT was reviewed regularly, which could reflect changes in disease. After treatment, the patient's blood glucose was under control, and his liver function, renal function, white blood cells, lymphocytes and other indicators were normal and chest CT also improved. The case showed that liraglutide may be effective and safe used in patients with severe COVID-19 combined with type 2 diabetes, but more clinical trials are needed.

Abstract
Lung cancer, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), is one of the mainly diagnosed cancer and becomes as the leading cause of death induced by cancer worldwide. Conventional antitumor drugs, such as docetaxel (DTX), exhibit excellent therapeutic efficacy, however, serious adverse effects have occurred due to their side effect, which limits their clinical use. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the novel drug delivery systems for antitumor therapy. Herein, we successfully developed mPEG-PLGA nanoparticles for the encapsulation of the clinically relevant drug DTX (NP-DTX) via an improved green method by emulsion. The mPEG-PLGA nanoparticles could target A549 and increased the cytotoxicity of DTX, NP-DTX showed significantly enhanced antitumor effect and therapeutic efficacy on NSCLC in vitro and in vivo. Compared with free DTX, NP-DTX significantly inhibited tumor growth and reduced the side effect of DTX. Therefore, we have shown a promising strategy to construct a novel therapeutic platform for targeted anti-tumor drug delivery.

Abstract
Objective To study the influence of halogenated hydroxyl-alkanes inhalation anesthetic on the determination of ethanol content in blood. Methods Halogenated hydroxyl-alkanes were analyzed by headspace gas chromatography with double column confirmatory detection method. The influence of halogenated hydroxyl-alkanes on determination of ethanol content in blood sample by headspace gas chromatography was explored under the different detection conditions of KB-BAC1/ KB-BAC2 and J&W DB-ALC1/DB-ALC2 gas chromatographic column. Results The retention time of sevoflurane and enflurane was similar to that of ethanol and tert butanol respectively when using the J&W DB-ALC1/DB-ALC2 gas chromatographic column, and interfered with the detection of ethanol content in blood; only J&W DB-ALC1 gas chromatographic column can separate the sevoflurane and ethanol components, so as to eliminate their influence on the detection of ethanol content in blood. When using KB-BAC1/KB-BAC2 gas chromatographic column, the retention time of sevoflurane, isoflurane and ethanol is similar, especially that of sevoflurane and ethanol, and sevoflurane obviously interferes with the determination of ethanol content in blood. Conclusion Halogenated hydroxy-alkanes interfere with determination of ethanol content in blood by headspace gas chromatography. The interference can be discriminated effectively by choosing the suitable chromatographic column and double column confirmatory detection.

Abstract
Advancement of a hydrogen economy requires establishment of a whole supply chain including hydrogen production, purification, storage, utilization, and recovery. Nevertheless, it remains challenging to selectively purify hydrogen out of H2-containing streams, especially at low concentrations. Herein, a novel protonic ceramic electrochemical cell is reported that can sustainably separate pure H2 out of H2-diluted streams over the temperature regime of 350-500 °C by mildly controlling the electric voltage. With the Faraday's efficiency above 96%, the measured H2 separation rate at 0.51 V and 500 °C is 3.3 mL cm-2 min-1 out of 10% H2 - 90% N2, or 2.4 mL cm-2 min-1 out of 10% H2 - 90% CH4 taken as an example of renewable hydrogen blended in the natural gas pipelines. Such high hydrogen separation capability at reduced temperatures is enabled by the nanoporous nickel catalysts and well-bonded electrochemical interfaces as produced from well-controlled in situ slow reduction of nickel oxides. These results demonstrate technical feasibility of onsite purification of hydrogen prior to their practical applications such as fuels for fuel cell electric vehicles.

Abstract
Autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) is characterized by a loss of self-tolerance to thyroid antigen. Tregs, whose proportions are controversial among CD4+ T cell from AITD patients (AITDs), are crucial in immune tolerance. Considering that drugs might affect Treg levels, we assumed that the differences originated from different treatment statuses. Thus, we performed a meta-analysis to explore proportions of Tregs in untreated and treated AITDs. PubMed, Embase and ISI Web of Knowledge were searched for relevant studies. Review Manager 5.3 and Stata 14.0 were used to conduct the meta-analysis. Subgroup analysis based on different diseases and cell surface markers was performed. Egger linear regression analysis was used to assess publication bias. Approximately 1,100 AITDs and healthy controls (HCs) from fourteen studies were included. Proportions of Tregs among CD4+ T cells of untreated AITDs were significantly lower than those in HCs (p = 0.002), but were not in treated patients (p = 0.40). Subgroup analysis revealed lower proportions of Tregs in untreated Graves' disease patients (GDs) (p = 0.001) but did not show obvious differences in untreated Hashimoto's thyroiditis patients (HTs) (p = 0.62). Furthermore, proportions of circulating FoxP3+ Tregs were reduced in untreated GDs (p < 0.00001) and HTs (p = 0.04). No publication bias was found. In this first meta-analysis exploring proportions of circulating Tregs among CD4+ T cells of AITDs with different treatment statuses, we found that Tregs potentially contribute to the pathogenesis of AITD but function differently in GD and HT. Remarkably, FoxP3+ Tregs, which were decreased in both diseases, might be promising targets for novel therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Graves' disease (GD) patients experience two major issues: one is the severe hyperthyroidism associated with newly diagnosed GD, and the other involves the disfiguring and dysfunctional features of active Graves' orbitopathy (GO). Therefore, the aim of our study was to identify potential markers involved in the initial phase of GD dysfunction and the development of active GO. METHODS Seventy-eight subjects were recruited: 40 with newly diagnosed GD, 20 with inactive GO and 18 with active GO. GO activity was evaluated by the clinical activity score (CAS, active GO = CAS ≥ 3), and severity was assessed according to the NOSPECS classification. Plasma selenium concentrations were determined by dual channel hydride generation atomic fluorescence photometry. A liquid chip assay was used to measure plasma Th1 cytokines IFN-γ and TNF-α; Th2 cytokines IL4, IL5 and IL6; Th17 cytokine IL23; Treg cytokines IL10 and TGF-β; and two chemokines, CCL2 (Th2 chemokine) and CXCL10 (Th1 chemokine). RESULTS Among the three groups, newly diagnosed GD patients showed significantly elevated plasma levels of CXCL10 and IL-23 (all p < 0.05). Both CXCL10 and IL23 were significantly correlated with hyperthyroidism severity, specifically, increasing FT3 and FT4 and decreasing TSH. Notably, a very strong positive relationship between IL23 and CXCL10 was revealed (adjusted R square = 0.795; p < 0.001). Moreover, the selenium level was lower, while that of CCL2 was higher, in active GO than in inactive GO (p = 0.007, p < 0.001, respectively). Likewise, we also discovered that increasing CCL2 levels and decreasing selenium levels were associated with high CAS. Remarkably, after adjusting for potential confounding factors, selenium (OR, 0.919) and CCL2 (OR, 1.042) were still independent predictors for the diagnosis of active GO, and similar conclusions were drawn by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. CONCLUSION Pro-inflammatory cytokines, especially Th17-associated cytokines (e.g., IL23) and Th1 chemokines (e.g., CXCL10), appear to be involved in the initial phase of GD dysfunction. Moreover, we revealed for the first time that decreased plasma selenium levels and increased concentrations of Th2 chemokines (e.g., CCL2) may reflect GO disease activity, shedding light on the diagnosis and evaluation of active GO.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease, which holds a high incidence in China. However, professional dermatologists who can diagnose psoriasis early and correctly are insufficient in China, especially in the rural areas. A smart approach to identify psoriasis by pictures would be highly adaptable countrywide and could play a useful role in early diagnosis and regular treatment of psoriasis. OBJECTIVES Design and evaluation of a smart psoriasis identification system based on clinical images (without relying on a dermatoscope) that works effectively similar to a dermatologist. METHODS A set of deep learning models using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) was explored and compared in the system for automatic identification of psoriasis. The work was carried out on a standardized dermatological dataset with 8021 clinical images of 9 common disorders including psoriasis along with full electronic medical records of patients built over the last 9 years in China. A two-stage deep neural network was designed and developed to identify psoriasis. In the first stage, a multilabel classifier was trained to learn the visual patterns for each individual skin disease. In the second stage, the output of the first stage was utilized to distinguish psoriasis from other skin diseases. RESULTS The area under the curve (AUC) of the two-stage model reached 0.981 ± 0.015, which outperforms a single-stage model. And, the classifier showed superior performance (missed diagnosis rate: 0.03, misdiagnosis rate: 0.04) than 25 Chinese dermatologists (missed diagnosis rate: 0.19, misdiagnosis rate: 0.10) in the diagnosis of psoriasis on 100 clinical images. CONCLUSIONS Using clinical images to identify psoriasis is feasible and effective based on CNNs, which also builds a solid technical base for smart care of skin diseases especially psoriasis using mobile/tablet applications for teledermatology in China.

Abstract
A minority of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) caused by enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) results in severe neural complications. However, whether monocyte-mediated immunity is involved in the disease progression of HFMD remains unknown. One hundred and twenty mild and 103 severe HFMD patients were recruited and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), flow cytometry and Transwell culture were performed in the study. Peripheral monocyte counts were lower in both absolute counts and frequencies in severe cases compared to mild cases. After screening 10 monocyte-related cytokines by ELISA, only monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) was found at higher levels in sera of mild cases compared to those with severe symptoms. Monocytes purified from mild cases produced more MCP-1 than the cells from severe patients when stimulated in vitro. We observed that immune exhaustion markers programmed death 1 (PD-1) and programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) were highly regulated on the surface of monocytes from severe cases compared to mild cases. PD-L1 blockade induced a higher production of MCP-1 in the supernatant of a Transwell system. The production of MCP-1 also increased following PD-L1 blockade of purified monocytes activated by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) combined with R848 or EV-A71 virus. Our results indicate that absolute count, frequency and levels of MCP-1 secretion of peripheral monocytes, together with their immune status, probably contribute to differential disease prognosis in EV-A71-associated HFMD.

Abstract
Objective In this study we investigated the effect of dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) neuropeptide Y (NPY) knock-down on hepatic insulin sensitivity in high-fat (HF) diet-fed rats. Methods Forty-eight Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to receive bilateral DMH injections of adeno-associated virus AAVshNPY or AAVshCTL and then accessed to regular chow. Five weeks after viral injection, half rats in each group were given access to the HF diet. At 16 weeks, rat livers were collected. Insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) mRNA expression was measured by qRT-PCR. Blood glucose levels were measured by the oxidase method, serum insulin, triglyceride, and TC levels were measured by Elisa. Pathological changes in the liver were assessed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. AKT, p-AKT, and GSK-3 levels were measured by western blotting. Results Compared with AAVshCTL-injected rats, AAVshNPY-injected rats showed a significant decrease in blood glucose concentrations; serum insulin, triglyceride, and TC; HOMA-IR; and IRS-1 and PI3K mRNA levels (P<0.05). ISI, GSK-3, and p-AKT levels were significantly increased (P<0.05). HE staining showed that AAVshNPY-injected rats fed the HF diet had mild fatty degeneration. Conclusion These results suggest that DMH NPY knock-down improves hepatic insulin sensitivity in HF diet-fed rats by activating the hepatic PI3K/AKT insulin signalling pathway.
