Abstract
The fate of antimony (Sb) in submerged soils and the impact of common agricultural practices (e.g., manuring) on Sb release and volatilization is understudied. We investigated porewater Sb release and volatilization in the field and laboratory for three rice paddy soils. In the field study, the porewater Sb concentration (up to 107.1 μg L-1) was associated with iron (Fe) at two sites, and with pH, Fe, manganese (Mn), and sulfate (SO42-) at one site. The surface water Sb concentrations (up to 495.3 ± 113.7 μg L-1) were up to 99 times higher than the regulatory values indicating a potential risk to aquaculture and rice agriculture. For the first time, volatile Sb was detected in rice paddy fields using a validated quantitative method (18.1 ± 5.2 to 217.9 ± 160.7 mg ha-1 y-1). We also investigated the influence of two common rice agriculture practices (flooding and manuring) on Sb release and volatilization in a 56-day microcosm experiment using the same soils from the field campaign. Flooding induced an immediate, but temporary, Sb release into the porewater that declined with SO42-, indicating that SO42- reduction may reduce porewater Sb concentrations. A secondary Sb release, corresponding to Fe reduction in the porewater, was observed in some of the microcosms. Our results suggest flooding-induced Sb release into rice paddy porewaters is temporary but relevant. Manuring the soils did not impact the porewater Sb concentration but did enhance Sb volatilization. Volatile Sb (159.6 ± 108.4 to 2237.5 ± 679.7 ng kg-1 y-1) was detected in most of the treatments and was correlated with the surface water Sb concentration. Our study indicates that Sb volatilization could be occurring at the soil-water interface or directly in the surface water and highlights that future works should investigate this potentially relevant mechanism.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the relationship between white matter lesions and clinical features and response of cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) tap test in patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus(iNPH). Methods: Possible iNPH patients were enrolled from outpatients and inpatients in Peking Union Medical College Hospital between 2014 and 2019. All patients underwent detailed neuropsychological and walking assessments, CSF tap test, as well as head magnetic resonance imaging. The Fazekas score of white matter lesions, the fractional anisotropy (FA)and mean diffusivity (MD) values of regions of interest by means ofdiffusion tensor imaging (DTI) were compared between CSF tap test positive and negative response groups. The correlation between DTI parameters and clinical characteristics was analyzed. Results: Forty-three patients (29 male and 14 female, age range: 52-79 years] wererecruited.Compared with the negative group, patients in the positive group tended to have higher Fazekas score of periventricular white matter(U=108.00, P=0.03), higher MD value of the region near anterior horn of left lateral ventricles[(1.14±0.27)×10-9mm2/s vs (0.85±0.08) ×10-9mm2/s, P=0.003], lower FA value of the region near anterior horn of the right lateral ventricles[(0.20±0.07)vs(0.27±0.09), P=0.058], and higher MD value near the posterior horn of right lateral ventricle [(1.17±0.34)×10-9mm2/s vs (0.95±0.01)×10-9mm2/s, P=0.003]. FA and MD were significantly correlated with motor function, cognitive and functional scores, and iNPH grading scale (iNPHGS) scores(all P<0.05). Conclusions: The white matter lesions might be one of the pathogeneses of lNPH and apathological changewhich can be reversed by CSF drainage. More white matter lesions should not be the contraindication of CSF drainage surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The real-world course of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in atopic dermatitis (AD) is not well established. AIM To examine predictors, longitudinal course and phenotypes of HRQoL in adult patients with AD. METHODS This was a prospective dermatology-practice based study of 955 patients with AD (age 18-97 years). Patients were assessed at baseline and approximately 6, 12, 18 and 24 months. HRQoL was assessed using the 10-item short-form Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Global Health (PGH). AD severity and impact was assessed by patient-reported global AD severity, Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM), Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI), Objective SCORing Atopic Dermatitis (O-SCORAD), Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA), Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) average and worst itch, PROMIS sleep-related impairment (SRI), and nine-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ)-9. Repeated-measures regression models were constructed to examine itch over time. RESULTS In multivariable linear regression models controlling for age, race/ethnicity, history of asthma, hay fever and food allergy, baseline PGH-physical (PGH-P4) T scores were inversely associated with patient-reported global AD severity, POEM, EASI, objective SCORAD, IGA, NRS average and worst itch, PROMIS SRI and PHQ-9, with stepwise decreases of physical health with worsening severity. PGH-mental health (PGH-M4) T scores were associated with all aforementioned severity measures aside from POEM. In multivariable repeated measures linear regression models, decreased PGH-P4 and PGH-M4 T scores and mapped five-dimension EuroQoL over time were associated with self-reported global AD severity, NRS worst and mean itch, POEM, PROMIS sleep disturbance and SRI, EASI, objective SCORAD, IGA and PHQ-9. Latent class analysis identified six classes of HRQoL, which were associated with measures of AD severity, nonwhite race, Hispanic ethnicity and having only public health insurance, but not age or sex. CONCLUSION Patients with AD have a heterogeneous longitudinal course and distinct patterns of HRQoL. Many patients had fluctuating HRQoL over time. Most patients with moderate to severe disease at baseline had persistent HRQoL impairment over time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple strategies have been used to evaluate the minimal important change (MIC) of the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) and Scoring Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD). The meaningfulness of these MICs is not well established across all severities of atopic dermatitis (AD). OBJECTIVES To determine the MIC of percentage and absolute improvement of EASI and SCORAD scores in adults and children with AD. METHODS We performed a prospective dermatology practice-based study using questionnaires and evaluation by a dermatologist (n = 826). An anchor-based approach was used to determine thresholds for the percentage and absolute MICs of EASI, SCORAD and objective SCORAD (O-SCORAD) at follow-up from baseline. RESULTS One-grade improvements of Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) and validated Investigator Global Assessment scale for AD (vIGA-AD) were associated with 50%, 35% and 35% decreases of EASI, SCORAD and O-SCORAD, respectively. The thresholds for percentage MIC of EASI (Kruskal-Wallis test, P = 0·61), SCORAD (P = 0·07) and O-SCORAD (P = 0·09) were similar across baseline AD severities. One-grade improvements of PGA and vIGA-AD were associated with 14·0- and 14·9-point decreases of EASI, 19·9- and 14·9-point decreases of SCORAD, and 15·5- and 17·4-point decreases of O-SCORAD. The thresholds for the absolute MIC of EASI (P < 0·001), SCORAD (P < 0·001) and O-SCORAD (P < 0·001) significantly differed by baseline AD severity. Percentage and absolute MICs for EASI and SCORAD were associated with improvements of AD symptoms and quality of life. CONCLUSIONS EASI 50, SCORAD 35 and O-SCORAD 35 were meaningful percentage MICs regardless of baseline AD severity. The absolute MICs for EASI, SCORAD and O-SCORAD varied by baseline AD severity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple atopic dermatitis (AD) severity scales exist, with no gold standard for use in clinical practice. OBJECTIVES To determine the measurement properties of the Rajka-Langeland score and compare it with other clinician-reported outcomes in adults and children with AD. METHODS We performed a prospective dermatology practice-based study using questionnaires and evaluation by a dermatologist (n = 427). RESULTS Rajka-Langeland had good concurrent validity with the Eczema Area and Severity Index (Spearman rho = 0·63), SCORing AD (SCORAD) (rho = 0·61), objective-SCORAD (rho = 0·52) and body surface area (rho = 0·51); good convergent validity with the numeric rating scale average-itch (rho = 0·60) and worst-itch (rho = 0·59), Patient-Oriented Eczema Measure (rho = 0·57), Dermatology Life Quality Index (rho = 0·53), Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Itch Questionnaire (rho = 0·35-0·55) in adults and/or children; fair discriminant validity for patient- and physician-reported global AD severity; good responsiveness to change of severity of AD and itch; good reliability; internal consistency; with no floor or ceiling effects. Interpretability bands (3, clear/almost clear; 4-5, mild; 6-7, moderate; 8-9, severe) and minimal clinically important difference (1 point) were established. CONCLUSIONS The Rajka-Langeland score showed good construct validity, reliability, internal consistency and responsiveness in adults and children with AD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vascular network formation induced by angiogenesis plays an important role in many physiological and pathological processes. However, the role of blood flow and underlying mechanisms in vascular network formation, for example for the development of the caudal vein plexus (CVP), is poorly understood. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to explore the role of ERK5-klf2a-nos2b signaling in the CVP angiogenesis. METHOD AND RESULTS In this study on tnnt2a-MO injection and chemical blood flow modulator treatment in zebrafish embryos, we demonstrated that decreased blood flow disrupted CVP formation. The hemodynamic force was quantitatively analyzed. Furthermore, CVP angiogenesis in zebrafish embryos was inhibited by disruption of the blood flow downstream effectors ERK5, klf2a, and nos2b in response to treatment with the ERK5 specific inhibitor and to injection of klf2a-MO, nos2b-MO. Overexpression of klf2a mRNA or nos2b mRNA restored vascular defects in tnnt2a or klf2a morphants. The data suggest that flow-induced ERK5-klf2a-nos2b signaling is involved in CVP angiogenesis in zebrafish embryos. CONCLUSION We have demonstrated that blood flow is essential for vascular network formation, specifically for CVP angiogenesis in zebrafish. A novel genetic and mechanical mechanism was discovered in which ERK5 facilitates the integration of blood flow with the downstream klf2a-nos2b signaling for CVP angiogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The compromise of blood brain barrier (BBB) integrity is often associated with human hemorrhage stroke and neurodegeneration diseases, including retina diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. Brain pericytes play pivotal roles in regulation and maintenance of BBB integrity. However, the mechanisms underlying brain pericyte development to establish BBB integrity remain unclear. METHODS Zebrafish transgenic lines Tg(flk1:GFP; gata1:dsRed), Tg(flk1:GFP), Tg(fli1:GFP) and Tg(BRE:GFP) were used in this work. The functional studies of bmp3 were performed by mopholino oligonucleotide (MO) injection, dye-based permeability assay, RT-PCR, in vivo imaging, immunofluorescence staining and statics analysis. RESULTS Here we report that bmp3 regulates BBB integrity in zebrafish brain by promoting pericyte development. Knockdown of bmp3 with injection of bmp3-MO causes intracerebral hemorrhage in zebrafish embryos. Meanwhile, disruption of bmp3 function by bmp3-MO injection impairs cerebral pericyte coverage in zebrafish embryos. Mechanistically, knockdown of bmp3 disrupts the pattern and activities of BMP signaling in zebrafish brain, thus probably disrupting the balance of TGFβ/BMP signaling in zebrafish embryos. CONCLUSION In summary, our data shows that bmp3 regulates BBB integrity potentially by promoting pericyte development.

Abstract
Islet transplantation is a promising therapy for patients with diabetes, but its long-term success is limited by many factors, including the formation of islet amyloid deposits. Heparin is employed in clinical islet transplantation to reduce clotting but also promotes fibrillization of amyloidogenic proteins. We hypothesized that heparin treatment of islets during pre-transplant culture may enhance amyloid formation leading to beta cell loss and graft dysfunction. Heparin promoted the fibrillization of human islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) and enhanced its toxicity to INS-1 beta cells. Heparin increased amyloid deposition in cultured human islets, but surprisingly decreased islet cell apoptosis. Treatment of human islets with heparin prior to transplantation increased the likelihood of graft failure. Removal of islet heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycans, which localize with islet amyloid deposits in type 2 diabetes, by heparinase treatment decreased amyloid deposition and protected against islet cell death. These findings raise the possibility that pretransplant treatment of human islets with heparin could potentiate IAPP aggregation and amyloid formation and may be detrimental to subsequent graft function.

Abstract
We report on the demonstration of photodetectors based on large scale two-dimensional molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) transition metal dichalcogenides. Excellent film uniformity and precise control of the MoS2 thickness down to a monolayer (~0.75nm) were achieved by magnetron sputtering synthesis approach. In particular, the photodetectors integrated with five MoS2 monolayers exhibit a high photoresponsivity of 1.8 A/W, an external quantum efficiency exceeding 260%, and a photodetectivity of ~5 x 10(8) Jones for a wavelength of 850 nm, surpassing the performance of mechanically exfoliated based photodetectors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs) and HaCaT cells are the most common models used to study the effects of various factors on skin cells. These cell lines share some common characteristics, but little is known about their differences in handling hydrogen peroxide (H(2) O(2) )-induced oxidative stress. AIM To investigate the differential response of NHEKs and HaCaT cells to H(2) O(2) -induced oxidative stress. METHODS We examined differences in NHEKs and HaCaT cells after H(2) O(2) treatment, assessing changes in cell viability; levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and caspase-3/7; percentage of cells arrested in G1 phase; number of senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-Gal)-positive cells and; expression of senescence-related protein Klotho. RESULTS The viability of NHEKs and HaCaT cells decreased in a concentration-dependent and time-dependent manner after exposure to H(2) O(2) . The inhibitory effect of 150 μmol/L H(2) O(2) on cell viability was greater in HaCaT cells than in NHEKs (P<0.05). Levels of ROS and caspase-3/7, and the percentage of cells arrested in G1 phase, were higher in HaCaT cells than in NHEKs, whereas intracellular SOD was higher in NHEKs than in HaCaT cells after exposure to 150 μmol/L H(2) O(2) (P < 0.05). SA-β-Gal positive cells increased significantly in NHEKs after treatment with H(2) O(2) (P < 0.05). Klotho was significantly downregulated in both NHEKs and HaCaT cells after H(2) O(2) treatment, but no SA-β-Gal-positive HaCaT cells were seen, even after treatment with H(2) O(2) . CONCLUSIONS Normal human epidermal keratinocytes are more resistant than HaCaT cells to H(2) O(2) -induced oxidative stress. HaCaT cells have senescence phenotypes, but do not express β-Gal.
