Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of varying zinc (Zn) levels on the growth performance, non-specific immune response, antioxidant capacity, and intestinal microbiota of red claw crayfish (Procambarus clarkii (P. clarkii)). Adopting hydroxy methionine zinc (Zn-MHA) as the Zn source, 180 healthy crayfish with an initial body mass of 6.50 ± 0.05 g were randomly divided into the following five groups: X1 (control group) and groups X2, X3, X4, and X5, which were fed the basal feed supplemented with Zn-MHA with 0, 15, 30, 60, and 90 mg kg-1, respectively. The results indicated that following the addition of various concentrations of Zn-MHA to the diet, the following was observed: Specific growth rate (SGR), weight gain rate (WGR), total protein (TP), total cholesterol (TC), the activities of alkaline phosphatase (AKP), phenoloxidase (PO), total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) and catalase (CAT), the expression of CTL, GPX, and CuZn-SOD genes demonstrated a trend of rising and then declining-with a maximum value in group X4-which was significantly higher than that in group X1 (P < 0.05). Zn deposition in the intestine and hepatopancreas, the activity of GSH-PX, and the expression of GSH-PX were increased, exhibiting the highest value in group X5. The malonaldehyde (MDA) content was significantly reduced, with the lowest value in group X4, and the MDA content of the Zn-MHA addition groups were significantly lower than the control group (P < 0.05). In the analysis of the intestinal microbiota of P. clarkii, the number of operational taxonomic units in group X4 was the highest, and the richness and diversity indexes of groups X3 and X4 were significantly higher than those in group X1 (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, the dietary addition of Zn-MHA decreased and increased the relative abundance of Proteobacteria and Tenericutes, respectively. These findings indicate that supplementation of dietary Zn-MHA at an optimum dose of 60 mg kg-1 may effectively improve growth performance, immune response, antioxidant capacity, and intestinal microbiota richness and species diversity in crayfish.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the characteristics of sleep spindle density in nonrapid eye movement (NREM) stage 2 (N2) sleep and its effect on memory function in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Methods: Patients who underwent polysomnography (PSG) examination due to snoring in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January to December 2021 were prospectively collected. A total of 119 male patients, aged 23-60 (37.4±7.3) years, were enrolled finally. According to the apnea hyponea index (AHI), the subjects were divided into a control group (AHI<15 times/h) of 59 cases and an OSAHS group (AHI≥15 times/h) of 60 cases. The basic information, general clinical data and PSG parameters were collected. Memory function scores were evaluated by using logical memory test (LMT), digit ordering test (DOT) and pattern recognition memory (PRM), spatial recognition memory (SRM) and spatial working memory (SWM) in CANTAB test. The number of N2 sleep spindles in leads left central area (C3) and right central area (C4) was counted by hand and the sleep spindle density (SSD) was calculated. The differences in the above indexes and N2 SSD were compared between the two groups. Shapiro-Wilk method, chi-squared test, Spearman correlation analysis and stepwise multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to investigate the influencing factors of memory scores in patients with OSAHS. Results: Compared with the control group, the proportion of the slow-wave sleep, the minimum blood oxygen saturation, the SSD in C3 of NREM2 stage and the SSD in C4 of NREM2 stage were lower in the OSAHS group. The body mass index (BMI), proportion of N2 sleep, oxygen reduction index, percentage of time with oxyhemoglobin saturation below 90% (TS90), maximum duration of apnea and respiratory effort-related arousal(RERA) were higher in the OSAHS group (all P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the immediate LMT score was lower, while the time for immediately completing PRM test, the total time for immediately completing SRM test and the time for delayed completing PRM test were longer in the OSAHS group, suggesting that the immediate logical memory, immediate visual memory, spatial recognition memory and delayed visual memory were worse in the OSAHS group. Stepwise multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the number of years of education (OR=0.744, 95%CI 0.565-0.979, P=0.035), maximum duration of apnea (OR=0.946, 95%CI 0.898-0.997, P=0.038) and N2-C3 SSD (OR=0.328, 95%CI 0.207-0.618, P=0.012) and N2-C4 SSD (OR=0.339, 95%CI 0.218-0.527, P=0.017) were independent factors affecting the immediate visual memory. The AHI (OR=1.449, 95%CI 1.057-1.985, P=0.021), N2-C3 SSD (OR=0.377, 95%CI 0.246-0.549, P=0.009), and N2-C4 SSD (OR=0.400, 95%CI 0.267-0.600, P=0.010) were independent factors affecting delayed visual memory. Conclusions: The decrease in SSD is associated with impaired memory function in patients with moderate-severe OSAHS, which is manifested as impairment of immediate visual memory and delayed visual memory. This suggests that changes of sleep spindle wave in N2 may be an electroencephalographic biomarker for assessing cognitive impairment in OSAHS patients.

Abstract
Research was conducted on the growth performance and nutritional quality of Chinese mitten crabs (Eriocheir sinensis) during a 62-day growing period in a symbiotic coculture comprising rice and crab. Culture experiments were conducted in three rice fields of equal size (996 m2). On days 0 (July 15, D0), 15 (July 30, D15), 31 (August 15, D31), 46 (August 30, D46), and 62 (September 2, D62), tissue samples of 50 female E. sinensis were collected randomly from each rice field. The results showed that the serum growth hormone (GH) content and muscle ecdysone receptor (EcR) mRNA expression levels were higher in the D31 and D46 groups; the content of serum 20-hydroxyecdysone (20-HE) and the mRNA expression levels of retinoid X receptor (RXR), insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2), and chitinase (CHI) reached the maximum in the D31 group. Muscle crude protein content gradually increased; hepatopancreas crude protein and crude lipid content began to decrease after reaching the maximum value in the D0 and D15 groups, respectively; the contents of crude protein and crude lipid in the ovary significantly increased in the D46 and D62 groups (P < 0.05). The content of muscle essential amino acids (EAA) reached the maximum in the D46 group; the hepatopancreas EAA content began to decrease significantly in the D31 group (P < 0.05); and the EAA content of the ovary decreased significantly after reaching the maximum value in the D46 group (P < 0.05). The muscle contents of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3PUFA) and the ratio of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids/n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n3/n6) decreased significantly in the D31 group (P < 0.05); the hepatopancreas contents of EPA, PUFA, n-3PUFA, and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-6PUFA) and the ratio of n3/n6 began to decrease after reaching the maximum value in the D31 group, ethyl behenate (21:0), tetracosanoic acid (24:0), DPA, and DHA contents were detected for the first time in the D31 group; the ovary PUFA, n-3PUFA contents, and n3/n6 ratio of the D46 and D62 groups were significantly lower than those of the D31 group (P < 0.05). During the experimental conditions described here, female E. sinensis raised in rice fields reached rapid growth from August 15 to August 30. Additionally, the nutritional quality of the female E. sinensis edible tissues (muscle, hepatopancreas, and ovary) began to decline after August 15, when sufficient nutrients such as protein, lipid, EAA, and PUFA should be provided to the female E. sinensis.

Abstract
Probiotics are widely used in aquaculture. This article aims to study the effect of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens LSG2-8 on the intestinal barrier function of Rhynchocypris lagowskii. B. amyloliquefaciens LSG2-8 were added to R. lagowskii basal diets (CK) as additives at four concentrations: 1.0 × 106 (D-6), 1.0 × 107 (D-7), 1.0 × 108 (D-8) and 1.0 × 109 (D-9) CFU g-1 by dry weight of basal diet. After a 56-day feeding experiment, the activities of intestinal digestive enzymes and immunity-related enzymes of R. lagowskii on group D-6, D-7, D-8 and D-9 diet were significantly higher than the control (P < 0.05). In molecular experiments, the authors found that the levels of TGF-β mRNA, IL-10 mRNA, ZO-1 mRNA and claudin-3 mRNA in group D-8 R. lagowskii were significantly higher (P < 0.05) than those of the control and other groups. Furthermore, the levels of IL-1β and IL-8 mRNA of R. lagowskii on group D-6, D-7, D-8 and D-9 diet were significantly lower than those of the control (P < 0.05). In addition, the authors found that B. amyloliquefaciens LSG2-8 can regulate the intestinal flora balance and improve the intestinal structure of R. lagowskii. In conclusion, B. amyloliquefaciens LSG2-8 can improve the intestinal barrier function of R. lagowskii and can be used as a feed additive in aquaculture.

Abstract
This study evaluated the effects of dietary administration of two indigenous Bacillus (A: basal control diet; B: 0.15 g/kg of Bacillus subtilis; C: 0.1 g/kg of Bacillus subtilis and 0.05 g/kg of Bacillus licheniformis; D: 0.05 g/kg of Bacillus subtilis and 0.1 g/kg of Bacillus licheniformis; E: 0.15 g/kg of Bacillus licheniformis) on the digestive enzyme activities, intestinal morphology, intestinal immune and barrier-related genes relative expression levels, and intestinal flora of Rhynchocypris lagowskii. The results showed that the fold height, lamina propria width, and muscle layer thickness of midgut and hindgut in group C were significantly higher than that of group A (P < 0.05). The activities of protease, amylase, and lipase in group C were significantly higher than those of group A (P < 0.05). The relative expression levels of IL-1β and IL-8 in the intestine of group C were significantly downregulated, and the relative expression levels of IL-10 and TGF-β were significantly upregulated (P < 0.05). The relative expression levels of Claudin-2 in group A significantly increased and the relative expression levels of Claudin-4 in group A significantly reduced compared with other groups (P < 0.05). The relative expression levels of ZO-1 in groups C and D were significantly higher than those of other groups (P < 0.05). The Bacillus in the intestine of group C has the highest relative abundance among all groups. Overall, it can generally be concluded that dietary supplementation of indigenous Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus licheniformis (group C) can improve the intestinal morphology, digestion, and absorption enzyme activities, enhance intestinal mucosal immunity and barrier function, and maintain the intestinal microbial balance of R. lagowskii.

Five diets with different methionine levels (0.63%, 0.85%, 1.06%, 1.25% and 1.47%) were fed to E. sinensis for 8 weeks. Results showed that in the 1.25% Met group, both growth performance and feed utilization were significantly increased. The crude protein content of crab muscle in the 1.06% and 1.25% Met groups was significantly higher than that in the control group. The immune and antioxidant enzyme activities, as well as gene expression levels of anti-lipopolysaccharide factor 1 (ALF1), Crustin-1, prophenoloxidase (proPO), cap 'n' collar isoform C (CncC) in 1.25% Met group were significantly higher than other groups. The activities of adenosine deaminase (ADA) and glutamate transaminase (GPT) in serum decreased first and then increased with the increase of methionine content, while the changes of ADA and GPT in hepatopancreas increased first and then decreased. 1.25% Met group exhibited significantly increased levels of GOT, GPT, and ADA compared to the control group. 1.25% Met diet group significantly up-regulated protein synthesis and anti-apoptotic factors, and significantly down-regulated inflammatory and pro-apoptotic factors in hepatopancreas. At 1.25% in the diet, methionine was found to boost E. sinensis growth, muscle protein deposition and immunity, as well as its antioxidant capacity. Combined with the above results, based on the expression of factors involved in the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway, it is proved that methionine can not only promote protein metabolism, improve feed utilization, but also alleviate the inflammatory response and apoptosis caused by oxidative stress in the body.

Abstract
Objective: To observe the effect of lipid regulating therapy on carotid atherosclerotic plaque in diabetic patients. Methods: The REACH study, conducted between March 2009 and February 2012, enrolled asymptomatic patients with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed carotid atherosclerotic plaque, who had never taken lipid-lowering drugs. Patients were treated with a moderate dose of rosuvastatin for 24 months. Blood lipid levels were measured and carotid MRI was performed at baseline, 3 and 24 months after treatment. The volume of carotid wall and lipid-rich necrotic core (LRNC) were measured by image analysis software. This study retrospectively analyzed patients in the REACH study. Patients were divided into diabetes group and non-diabetic group. The changes of blood lipid level and MRI parameters of carotid atherosclerotic plaque were compared between the two groups and their correlation was analyzed. Results: A total of 38 patients with carotid atherosclerotic plaque were included in this study, including 13 patients (34.2%) in the diabetic group and 25 patients (65.8%) in the non-diabetic group. Baseline parameters were comparable between the two groups, except higher HbA1c level in diabetes group (P<0.05). Compared with baseline, the total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and triglyceride (TG) levels were significantly decreased at 3 and 24 months in both two groups (P<0.05). The change of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in diabetes group was not obvious, while it was significantly increased in non-diabetic group at 24 months ((1.38±0.33) mmol/l vs. (1.26±0.26) mmol/l, P<0.05). MRI results showed that the volume and percentage of LRNC remained unchanged at 3 months, slightly decreased at 24 months (64.86 (45.37, 134.56) mm3 vs. 75.76 (48.20, 115.64) mm3, P>0.05) and (15.84% (11.47%, 24.85%) vs. 16.95% (11.64%, 22.91%), P>0.05) in diabetic group. In non-diabetic group, the volume and percentage of LRNC were significantly decreased at 3 months (63.01 (44.25, 188.64) mm3 vs. 72.49 (51.91, 199.59) mm3, P<0.05) and (13.76% (8.81%, 27.64%) vs. 16.04% (11.18%, 27.05%), P<0.05) respectively. Both parameters further decreased to (55.63 (27.18, 179.40) mm3) and (12.71% (8.39%, 24.41%)) at 24 months (both P<0.05). Wall volume, lumen volume and percent wall volume (PWV) were not affected post therapy in both two groups(P>0.05). There were no correlations between the changes of plaque parameters including volume and percentage of LRNC, wall volume, lumen volume, PWV and the changes of blood lipid parameters (TC, LDL-C, HDL-C and TG) in 3 and 24 months (P>0.05). Conclusion: Lipid-lowering therapy possesses different effects on carotid atherosclerotic plaque in diabetic and non-diabetic patients, and the LRNC improvement is more significant in non-diabetic patients as compared to diabetic patients.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the clinical characteristics of patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) combined with alveolar hypoventilation. Methods: This retrospective study included patients who were diagnosed as OSAHS by polysomnography (PSG) and underwent daytime awake transcutaneous carbon dioxide (PtcCO2) monitoring from November 2019 to February 2021 at the Sleep Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University. A total of 177 patients were enrolled in the analysis, including 167 males and 10 females, aged (40±8) years old. Patients with daytime awake PtcCO2>45 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) were diagnosed as daytime alveolar hypoventilation, with which participants were divided into the daytime alveolar hypoventilation group and non-daytime alveolar hypoventilation group. Body mass index (BMI) cut-off value predicting daytime alveolar hypoventilation was calculated and the patients were divided into the high BMI group and low BMI group. The continuous nocturnal PtcCO2 data was available for a subset of 128 patients, and the patients were divided into two groups according the daytime alveolar hypoventilation or not. Across-group differences were compared, respectively. Results: Compared with the non-daytime alveolar hypoventilation group (n=125), the BMI [27.57 (26.55, 30.33) vs 26.60 (25.06, 28.09) kg/m2], Epworth sleepiness score(ESS) score [9.50 (6.25, 12.00) vs 7.00 (4.00, 10.75)], higher oxygen desaturation index (ODI) [38.00 (15.23, 64.93) vs 26.80 (11.30, 44.30) events/h] and percentage of total time with oxygen saturation level<90% (TS90%) [11.24% (1.88%, 32.44%) vs 4.35% (0.72%, 9.87%)] of the daytime alveolar hypoventilation group(n=52) were significantly higher (P<0.05), and lowest arterial oxygen saturation (LSaO2) [74.50% (60.25%, 82.00%) vs 79.00% (73.00%, 84.50%)], mean arterial oxygen saturation (MSaO2) [94.00% (91.00%, 95.00%) vs 95.00% (94.00%, 96.00%)] were significantly lower (P<0.05). The BMI cut-off value for predicting daytime alveolar hypoventilation was 27.04 kg/m2. Of the 177 enrolled patients, 90 were in the high BMI group and 87 were in low group. Compared with the low BMI group, the proportion of daytime sleepiness, the ESS score, the prevalence of hypertension, AHI and daytime awake PtcCO2 in the high BMI group were significantly higher (P<0.05). Among the subset of 128 patients with nocturnal PtcCO2 data available, the BMI, daytime PtcCO2 level, the nocturnal CO2 level and the prevalence of sleep related alveolar hypoventilation in the daytime alveolar hypoventilation group (n=40) were significantly higher than those in the non-daytime alveolar hypoventilation group (n=88) (P<0.05). Conclusions: The OSAHS patients with alveolar hypoventilation have higher BMI and more severe nocturnal hypoxia. OSAHS patients with BMI>27.04 kg/m2 are more likely to develop sleep related alveolar hypoventilation disorder.

Abstract
Aeromonas hydrophila (A. hydrophila) as a serious bacterial disease endangering aquaculture and the Chinese mitten crabs (Eriocheir sinensis) industry. The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of A. hydrophila on the antioxidant, inflammation, immunity and apoptosis of the E. sinensis. The E. sinensis (female: 150 crabs and male: 150 crabs; 67.11 ± 0.76 g) were randomly divided into the control group (Foot injection with 200 μl PBS) and infection group (Foot injection with 200 μl A. hydrophila of 106 cfu/mL). The hepatopancreas and serum was collected to detect the related indicators after injection 24 h. The results showed that A. hydrophila significantly reduced the malondialdehyde (MDA) level and gamma-glutamyl-cysteine synthetase (γ-GCS) activity in the hepatopancreas of male and female crabs (P < 0.05). A.hydrophila also significantly decreased the total-superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) activity while the levels of total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) and total glutathione (T-GSH) were significantly increased in the hepatopancreas and serum of male crabs (P < 0.05). At the transcriptional level, the expression of catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidases (GPx), Glutathione S-transferase (GST) in the hepatopancreas of male and female crabs was significantly reduced compared to the control group (P < 0.05). However, A. hydrophila could not significantly change the Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) gene expression level in both of male and female carbs. A. hydrophila injection for 24 h, the lysozyme (LZM) and phenoloxidase (PO) activity was significantly increased in the hepatopancreas and serum of the male and female crabs (P < 0.05). Simultaneous increase of immune-related enzyme activity (acid phosphatase and alkaline phosphatase) was found in the serum of male and female crabs (P < 0.05). However, the acid phosphatase (ACP) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was significantly decreased in the hepatopancreas of male and female crabs (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, the LZM mRNA level was significantly decreased in the hepatopancreas of E. sinensis (P < 0.05). Furthermore, A. hydrophila significantly inhibited the mRNA expression of immune regulated factors (Interleukin enhancer binding factor 2: ILF2, interleukin-16: IL-16, Toll-like receptor: TLR) in the male and female crabs. The levels of inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-1β: IL-1β, interleukin-6: IL-6, interleukin-8: IL-8, interleukin-10: IL-10) were significantly increased in the hepatopancreas of male and female crabs. Moreover, A.hydrophila increased the mRNA expression of apoptosis - related genes in male crabs (p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase: p38, adamalysin 17: ADAM17, Cysteine-aspartic acid protease 3: Caspase 3, and Bcl-2-associated X: BAX), but reduced the expression of p38, ADAM17, Caspase 3 and BAX genes in female crabs. In conclusion, A. hydrophila could induce oxidative stress and the response of inflammation and immunity, and also trigger the mRNA expression changes of apoptosis related-genes in E. sinensis. This study provides a theoretical basis for the study of E. sinensis diseases.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the learning curve and short-term clinical outcomes of Mako robotic-assisted direct anterior approach total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods: The preoperative basic data, surgical information and postoperative rehabilitation of 50 patients who underwent Mako robotic-assisted THA for hip diseases in Department of Orthopedic Surgery of the 6th People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University from December 2018 to December 2020 were analyzed retrospectively, included operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative complications, postoperative imaging parameters (abduction angle, anteversion angle, lower limb length difference, eccentricity difference) and postoperative hip joint Harris score (hip Harris score, HHS). There were 16 males and 34 females, with a mean age of 50-79(67±10) years. The postoperative clinical results of Mako robotic-assisted total hip arthroplasty was analyzed. A cumulative sum analysis (CUSUM) was performed on the operation time (OT). The CUSUM learning curve was modeled by curve fitting and R² was used to testify the goodness. The different phase of the learning curve was compared with several observation indicators. Results: All patients were followed up for more than 6 months. Two patients had poor wound healing and 5 patients had symptoms of lateral femoral cutaneous nerve injury, which disappeared within 1-2 months. No serious complications such as dislocation, aseptic loosening, periprosthetic infection or revision occurred in all the patients. The average operation time was (81±16) min, and the intraoperative blood loss was (456±84) ml. The average Harris hip score at the last follow-up was 88.6±2.5. The radiological evaluation showed that the positions of the acetabular cups were all in the Lewinnnek safety zone; the limb length discrepancy was (0.15±0.50) cm, the offset was (-0.11±0.72) cm. The OT decreased with the accumulation of the cases. The CUSUM learning curve was best modeled as cubic curve,the fitting curve reached the top at the 19th case. As a cut-off point, the 19th point divided the learing curve into two phases. There were statistical differences in OT, pelvic array installation time, acetabular registration time, acetabular reaming time (all P<0.05), but there was no significant differences in Harris hip score, acetabular prosthesis anteversion angle and abduction angle between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions: The learning curve of Mako robot-assisted DAA-THA is about 19 cases. Mako robot-assisted DAA-THA can ensure the accuracy of prosthetic placement and the safety of the operation during the learning curve, and the short-term clinical results after surgery is excellent.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effects of daytime hypercapnia on logical memory and working memory in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Methods: This prospective study recruited patients complaining of snoring and diagnosed with OSAHS at the Sleep Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January to November 2020. Patients were assessed clinically and scored for their memory function. All patients underwent daytime transcutaneous carbon dioxide (PtcCO2) test, and overnight polysomnography (PSG). Logical memory was scored using the Logical Memory Test (LMT), while working memory was evaluated by Digit Span Test (DST) and Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery (CANTAB) which included Pattern Recognition Memory (PRM), Spatial Span (SSP), and Spatial Working Memory (SWM). Patients were divided into the normocapnic group and the hypercapnic group using the daytime PtcCO2 test. The clinical and PSG parameters and the memory test scores between the two groups were compared. Binary logistic stepwise regression was conducted to identify risk factors of memory impairment in OSAHS patients. Results: Among the 123 enrolled OSAHS patients, 79 were normocapnic and 44 were hypercapnic. There was no significant difference in the general clinical parameters between the two groups. The snoring history in years in the hypercapnic group was longer than that in the normocapnic group (P<0.05). Compared with the normocapnic group, the apnea-hyponea index (AHI), oxygen desaturation index (ODI) and percentage of total sleep time with oxygen saturation level<90% (TS90) of the hypercapnic group were higher (all P<0.05), while other PSG parameters exhibited no statistically significant differences. There was no statistically significant difference in the immediate logical memory and PRM immediate accuracy rate between the two groups, while the delayed logical memory, verbal and spatial working memory, and executive function were worse in the hypercapnic group, as shown by lower total LMT scores, lower DST, lower SSP scores (all P<0.05), and higher between errors and strategy scores (P<0.01) of SWM in the hypercapnic group. Binary logistic stepwise regression showed that PtcCO2 ≥45 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa, OR=3.055, 95%CI 1.359-6.868, P=0.007) and higher body mass index (BMI) (OR=1.132, 95%CI 1.005-1.275, P=0.041) were risk factors for poor performance in Digit Span Backwards Test. Therefore, PtcCO2 ≥45 mmHg was an independent risk factors for poor performance in delayed LMT, SSP, and between errors and strategy scores in SWM (OR=3.109, 3.941, 3.238 and 2.785, respectively, all P<0.05). Conclusion: Hypercapnia had negative impacts on logical memory and working memory of OSAHS patients, especially on the delayed logical memory, verbal working memory and spatial working memory impairment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the genetic causes of sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) patients in China. This study focused on analyzing variations of coding sequence of common genes related to deafness, revealing the molecular pathogenesis of sudden deafness from a genomics perspective, discovering molecular markers associated with the onset of deafness, and then supplying prevention to high-risk populations, classifying disease according to accurate etiology, and choosing a much more precision therapy. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the clinical characteristics of 51 patients diagnosed as SSNHL with vertigo treated in the Chinese PLA General Hospital. In this study, mutation screening of 307 nuclear genes and mitochondrial genome responsible for human or mouse deafness was performed on the 51 cases of unilateral sudden deafness patients with vertigo. RESULTS We identified 51 cases of unilateral sudden deafness, including 2 cases of low-mid frequency hearing impairment, 18 cases of mid-high frequency hearing loss, 11 cases of flat-type hearing loss, and 20 cases of all frequency hearing loss. Among the 51 cases, 8 (15.69%) cases of GJB2 heterozygous variations, 1 (1.96%) case of GJB3 heterozygous variations, 5 (9.8%) cases of SLC26A4 heterozygous variations, 2 (3.92%) cases of COCH heterozygous variations, 14 (27.45%) cases of CDH23 heterozygous variations, 14 (27.45%) cases of OTOF heterozygous variations, 1 (1.96%) case of SLC17A8 heterozygous variations and 2 (3.92%) cases of KCNE1 heterozygous variations. No mtDNA gene variations were identified. CONCLUSION SSNHL has some relationship with hereditary in Chinese population, but its complex genetic pathogenic mechanisms need further study.

Abstract
White hepatopancreas syndrome has recently emerged in Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) aquaculture, causing considerable economic loss. The hepatopancreas color of diseased crabs becomes gradually lighter, turning from yellow to yellow-white to white. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the changes in nutrient composition in three edible parts (hepatopancreas, ovaries, and muscle) of adult females with different colored hepatopancreases. Three groups were assessed in this study, including a yellow hepatopancreas group (control, L * = 63.92, a * = 22.14, b * = 60.95), a yellow-white hepatopancreas group (YWHG, L * = 65.06, a * = 22.35, b * = 57.80), and a white hepatopancreas group (WHG, L * = 65.72, a * = 10.70, b * = 30.52). No statistically significant differences in average weight, tissue indices, and total edible yield were observed among the three crab groups (P >0.05). The moisture content of the hepatopancreases and ovaries in WHG was 56.12% and 9.23% higher than the control values (P <0.05), whereas hepatopancreas crude fat and ovary crude protein levels were 62.23% and 11.45% lower than the control values (P < 0.05). The total carbohydrate levels of the three edible tissues were significantly higher and the crude protein content of ovaries was significantly lower in YWHG (P < 0.05). Most amino acid levels in the WHG muscle and ovaries were significantly lower than the control (P < 0.05). Moreover, the hepatopancreas levels of total polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and n-6PUFA in WHG were 24.88% and 31.83% lower than in control group, whereas the hepatopancreas levels of total PUFA and n-6PUFA in YWHG were also 21.88% and 23.20% lower compared to the controls (P < 0.05). Overall, the growth and the edible parts were not affected in YWHG and WHG. Moreover, YWHG crabs exhibited few effects on nutritional value; however, the fatty acid composition of crabs was significantly changed. In contrast, WHG crabs exhibited poor nutritional quality. Nonetheless, the consumption of crabs with yellow-white or white hepatopancreases is not recommended since the animal also referred to as diseased crabs.

Abstract
Imatinib mesylate (IM) is the standard treatment for advanced, metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) with a fixed daily standard dosage via the oral route. Interindividual and intraindividual variability in plasma concentrations have been closely linked to the efficacy of IM therapy. Therefore, this review identifies and describes the key factors influencing the plasma concentration of IM in patients with GISTs and CML. We used the following keywords to search the PubMed, EMBASE, Ovid, Wangfang, and CNKI databases to identify published reports: IM, plasma concentration, GISTs, CML, drug combination/interaction, pathology, and genotype/genetic polymorphism, either alone or in combination. This literature review revealed that only 10 countries have reported the mean concentrations of IM in GISTs or CML patients and the clinical outcomes in different ethnic groups and populations. There were totally 24 different gene polymorphisms, which were examined for any potential influence on the steady-state plasma concentration of IM. As a result, some genotype locus made discrepant conclusion. Herein, the more sample capacity, multicenter, long-term study was worthy to carry out. Eleven reports were enumerated on clinical drug interactions with IM, while there is not sufficient information on the pharmacokinetic parameters altered by drug combinations with IM that could help in investigating the actual drug interactions. The drug interaction with IM should be paid more attention in the future research.

Abstract
The trapped electron states on a pliable lattice have different localization and physical chemistry characteristics. Here, terahertz time-domain measurements suggest that the formation of vanadyl oxygen defect, in the presence of the surface potential traps and mobile charge carriers, leads to a transient charge distribution that forms terahertz radiating dipoles in V2O5. The emergence of radiating dipoles is evidenced by terahertz responses with a two-valley feature of the thermally reduced α-V2O5 (001) thin films in the temperature range of 300-700 K. The two photoconductance valleys on a several millielectron volts interval are related to two emergent split-off traps, which originate from the VO6 octahedra distortion upon the vanadyl oxygen desorption on the surface. The pliable surface lattices plays a decisive role. So long as the α-V2O5 (001) thin films are covered by a 30 nm-thick Al2O3 capping layer, the distinct two-valley feature disappears completely in the full temperature range. The terahertz radiating dipoles with a fine energy structure is potentially a new measure for charge dynamics on the α-V2O5 (001) surface.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the relationship between insomnia phenotype and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in young and middle-aged patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Methods: Those patients admitted due to snoring and examined by polysomnography (PSG) in the Sleep Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2014 to January 2019 were screened. They were between 30 and 60 years old, and their cognitive function was assessed by the Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) and their sleep quality was assessed by the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI). According to the sleep apnea hypopnea index (AHI), the patients were divided into three groups: snoring group (AHI<5 times/h), mild/moderate OSAHS group (5≤AHI≤30 times/h) and severe OSAHS group (AHI>30 times/h). According to the results of PSQI score, the patients were further divided into non-insomnia group (PSQI total score<8) and insomnia group (PSQI total score≥8). The differences of parameters in different groups were compared, and the relationship between OSAHS insomnia phenotype and MCI was analyzed by binary logistic regression model. Results: A total of 2 098 patients with the average age of (42.7±8.4) years old and the average BMI of (26.3±3.6) kg/m(2) were enrolled in the study, including 398 cases in snoring group (including 254 cases in non-insomnia group and 144 cases in insomnia group), 754 cases in mild/moderate OSAHS group (including 446 cases in non-insomnia group and 308 cases in insomnia group) and 946 cases in severe OSAHS group (including 722 cases in non-insomnia group and 224 cases in insomnia group). In the mild/moderate OSAHS group, compared with the non-insomnia group, the proportion of women in the insomnia group was higher with lighter degree of obesity, lighter severity of illness and lighter degree of hypoxia (all P<0.05). In the severe OSAHS group, the general characteristics of insomnia patients were similar to those of the mild/moderate OSAHS group, and the MoCA score of the insomnia group was lower than that of the non-insomnia group [(26.3±2.7) vs (25.5±2.9) points] (P=0.001). In the evaluation of each item of PSQI, the total score and daytime dysfunction score of insomnia patients in mild/moderate OSAHS group and severe OSAHS group was higher than those in snoring group [(11.2±1.9) points, (12.8±2.2) points vs (10.9±2.1) points and (1.5±0.4) points, (1.9±0.8) points vs (0.5±0.5) points], but the score in sleep latency was lower than that in snoring group [(1.5±0.5) points, (1.5±0.5) points vs (2.1±0.8) points] (all P<0.05). After correcting the effects of OSAHS disease severity, hypoxia, awake times, education, age, gender, hypnagogue, BMI, smoking and drinking history, the risk of MCI in insomnia group of severe OSAHS patients was significantly higher than that of non-insomnia group by 49% (OR=1.49, 95%CI: 1.05-2.11). Conclusion: Insomnia phenotype is a common clinical phenotype of OSAHS, and it is a risk factor for MCI in young and middle-aged patients with severe OSAHS.

Abstract
In December 2019, a severe outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) occurred in the whole world, posing a great threat to people's health. With the outbreak and development of the epidemic, how to improve the cure rate, find effective drugs against this virus, has been the most urgent problem. Chloroquine (CQ) was verified effective against COVID-19 in vitro. As CQ's analogue, hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) was also reminded as a potential candidate for treating COVID-19. This review summarizes the latest clinical trials of CQ and HCQ against COVID-19 and its therapeutic regimen in China aiming to share their current usage to the whole world and provide insight into its appropriate future use in the treatment of COVID-19. Through searching the CNKI and Wangfang databases in Chinese language and PubMed, EMBASE, and Ovid databases in English language to identify published reports with the keywords including "coronavirus/COVID, chloroquine, hyroxychloroquine" in alone or combined, we found out the potential preclinical or clinical evidence for using CQ and HCQ against COVID-19. Consequently, we also searched the website of Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (http://www.chictr.org.cn/) till the day on 27th, June, 2020. This review found that there are 23 programs aimed to treat the different phases under COVID-19 pipeline in clinic with CQ and HCQ, totally. The inclusion criteria, exclusion criteria and therapeutic regimen were all shared to consult. Among them, seven have been canceled due to lack of patients or other objective factors. There are two trials have completed, which the potential relationship between usage and adverse reactions was discussed emphatically. Through literature research, we suggested that paid close attention to retinal toxicity and ophthalmologic adverse symptom of CQ and HCQ. And the outcome of HCQ in clinic shows better than CQ especially in protective effect with low dosage.

Abstract
The in vitro investigation of cytokine secretion induced by porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) requires porcine alveolar macrophages (PAMs) and their interaction with immunocytes. However, immortalized monoclonal PAMs (mPAMs) are non-permissive for PRRSV infection. The porcine CD163 receptor isolated from primary PAMs (pPAMs) confers susceptibility to PRRSV infection; thus, this approach could be used to establish a novel cell line to facilitate the exploration of PRRSV infection kinetics. Here, we amplified the coding region of the CD163 gene from pPAMs and integrated it into an mPAM line using a lentivirus expression system. After verification, the monoclonal PAM cell line stably expressing CD163 (mPAM-CD163-GFP) was infected with either the highly pathogenic PRRSV strain JXA1 or the classical PRRSV strain SD1, which produced high infectious titers of progeny virus reaching > 109 copies/mL or a 50 % tissue culture infective dose of 105.5 over at least 100 cell generations. We also investigated cytokine and Toll-like receptor expression in infected mPAM-CD163-GFP cells and pPAMs. The mPAM-CD163-GFP cell line showed similar patterns of viral replication and cytokine secretion compared with pPAMs, so it may be extremely useful for replacing primary cells for in vitro investigations of the mechanisms of cytokine secretion and interactions between PRRSV-infected PAMs and immunocytes.

Abstract
Objective:We aimed to provide a basis for the clinical study of acoustic neuroma through investigating the ability of temporal gap detection in acoustic neuroma patients and comparing the abilities with those in people with normal and impaired hearing. Method:Twenty-two patients with confirmed acoustic neuroma, 30 normal hearing patients and 16 patients with sensorineural hearing loss were enrolled in this study, and the interval threshold for awareness of each group was tested. Result:The mean temporal gap detection test(TGDT) threshold of the normal hearing group was (3.56±0.82) ms; the sensorineural hearing loss group's was (3.91±1.46) ms; TGDT threshold of healthy side of acoustic neuroma patients was (4.01±1.86) ms; TGDT threshold of the impaired side of acoustic neuroma patients was (9.48±9.46)ms. After statistical analysis, we found that excepting for the test of phonetically balanced maximum (PBmax) and TGDT, other results in the sensorineural hearing loss group and normal hearing group is of no statistical difference. The difference between the affected side of the acoustic neuroma group and the other groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no linear correlation between the value of TGDT threshold and PBmax (P> 0.05). TGDT value of normal people has no significant difference among people of different genders and ears of different individuals. Conclusion:The TGDT of the healthy ear of the patients with acoustic neuroma is not affected, and there is no significant change compared with normal people. The TGDT test has a good consistency with the PBmax results. The time interval response ability of the affected ear of the acoustic neuroma is significantly weaker than that of the normal person. The combined test of PBmax and TGDT will contribute to the diagnosis of retrocochlear disease.

Abstract
Nrf2/Keap1 pathway is associated with oxidative stress. l-carnitine is currently under preclinical evaluation as a antioxidant, but the use of l-carnitine in aquaculture has been poorly evaluated and so far no mechanism has been demonstrated. Here, we explored the effects of l-carnitine in vitro and in vivo and discussed the possible molecular mechanisms involved. Firstly, Nrf2-siRNA significantly knocked down the mRNA level of Nrf2 in FHM cells. Thus, the activities of antioxidant enzymes (T-SOD, CAT, GSH-PX) and the level of antioxidant substance (GSH) and the level of MDA showed that Nrf2-siRNA pretreatment weakened the protective effect of l-carnitine. Moreover, the mRNA levels of Keap1, Nrf2, Maf and HO-1 indicated that l-carnitine regulated Nrf2/Keap1 activation. Furthermore, oxidized fish oil remarkably suppressed growth in Rhynchocypris lagowski Dybowski, and the lower antioxidant capacity was also observed in liver. According to the results of immune related indexes (the levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, LZM, AKP) in serum and the mRNA levels of immune related genes (NF-κB, IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-8, IL-10 and TGF-β) in liver, oxidized fish oil also induced inflammatory response in fish. Also, l-carnitine supplementation can relieve this bad condition. In conclusion, l-carnitine regulated Nrf2/Keap1 activation in vitro and in vivo and protected oxidized fish oil-induced inflammation response by inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway in Rhynchocypris lagowski Dybowski.

Abstract
Background: Deletions of the interstitial 2q36 are uncommon and associated with varying phenotypes. However, the list of currently known phenotypes is still far complete for an understanding of the interstitial 2q36 deletion syndrome characteristics. Aims/Objectives: To identify the genetic and clinical characterization of a 6-year-old male patient suffering from a severe form of syndromic hearing loss, with brachydactyly family history. Material and Methods: We performed conventional cytogenetic analysis on the peripheral blood lymphocytes and whole exome sequencing and SNP array analysis on DNA samples from the family. Results: The proband showed signs such as bilateral sensorineural deafness, ocular hypertelorism, flat facial profile and several decayed teeth, slightly ulnar deviation of the hands, single transverse palmar crease, short stature and intellectual disability. Through cytogenetic and molecular genetic analysis, we discovered that the syndromic hearing loss was the result of a de novo 5.175-Mb microdeletion at chromosome 2q36.1q36.3 whose breakpoints had been precisely mapped by us. Conclusions and Significance: Our study warns that auditory assessment should be evaluated even if the patient with 2q36 deletion syndrome is not obviously presenting hearing loss. In addition, a comprehensive molecular genetics diagnosis involving multiple methods is important to support accurate genetic characterization of this syndrome.

Abstract
Summary Microtia is a kind of malformation affecting the development of the external ear and middle ear. In China, researches have pointed out that the incidence of microtia was 3.06 per 10 000 people. About 40% of patients with microtia were identified with other systemic malformation, and the commom complications included congenital heart disease, scoliosis, anophthalmia, cleft palate, facial asymmetry, facial asymmetry, etc. Of which, the prevalence of microtia with congenital heart disease was 18.5%, and it was 7% of patients with scoliosis. It is very rare for patients of microtia combined with multi-malformations. In this study, we reported a case of familial microtia combined with tetralogy of Fallot and scoliosis, and undertook a systematic review of the literature.

Abstract
Summary Mitochondrial DNA(mtDNA) deletion is a rare occurrence that results in defects to oxidative phosphorylation. The common clinical presentations of mtDNA deletion vary but include mitochondrial myopathy, Pearson syndrome, Kearns-Sayre syndrome, and progressive external ophthalmoplegia. However, in clinical practice, some cases cannot be classified as any typical syndrome due to the absence or overlap of phenotypes. Here, we report one case of a 5-year-old girl who presented with progressive deterioration of her clinical status, which included systemic electrolyte disturbance, Fanconi syndrome and sensorineural hearing loss. Through a combination of systematic examinations and molecular analyses, mitochondrial disease was confirmed. A novel 6991-base pair deletion(deletion of mtDNA nt 7808-14798) was identified which confirmed molecular pathogeny of patient. Following treatment, the patient was stabilized and her hearing loss improved by hearing aid. This paper provided an important reference for the diagnosis and treatment of similar patients in clinical practice.

Abstract
Combination treatment through simultaneous delivery of anticancer drugs and gene with nano-formulation has been demonstrated to be an elegant and efficient approach for colorectal cancer therapy. Recently, sorafenib being studied in combination therapy in colorectal cancer (CRC) attracted attention of researchers. On the basis of our previous study, pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) loaded nanoparticles showed good effect on CRC in vitro and in vivo. Herein, we designed a combination therapy for sorafenib (Sora), a multi-kinase inhibitor and PEDF, a powerful antiangiogenic gene, in a nano-formulation aimed to increase anti-tumor effect on CRC for the first time. Sora and PEDF were simultaneously encapsulated in PEG-PLGA based nanoparticles by a modified double-emulsion solvent evaporation method. The obtained co-encapsulated nanoparticles (Sora@PEDF-NPs) showed high entrapment efficiency of both Sora and PEDF - and exhibited a uniform spherical morphology. The release profiles of Sora and PEDF were in a sustained manner. The most effective tumor growth inhibition in the C26 cells and C26-bearing mice was observed in the Sora@PEDF-NPs in comparison with none-drug nanoparticles, free Sora, mono-drug nanoparticles (Sora-NPs and PEDF-NPs) and the mixture of Sora-NPs and equivalent PEDF-NPs (Mix-NPs). More importantly, Sora@PEDF-NPs showed lower toxicity than free Sora in mice according to the acute toxicity test. The serologic biochemical analysis and mice body weight during therapeutic period revealed that Sora@PEDF-NPs had no obvious toxicity. All the data demonstrated that the simultaneously loaded nanoparticles with multi-kinase inhibitor and anti-angiogenic gene might be one of the most potential formulations in the treatment of colorectal carcinoma in clinic and worthy of further investigation.

Abstract
Objective:The aim of this study was to investigate the association between serum bilirubin levels and the severity of bilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss (BSSHL). Method:A total of 113 patients with bilateral axillary sputum were enrolled, and the relationship between serum bilirubin levels and initial hearing levels was explored using a univariate and multivariate linear regression model. Result:Compared with the group with moderate and below hearing loss (≤70 dB HL), patients with severe profound HL(>70 dB HL) were more likely to have lower levels of total and indirect bilirubin level, magnesium and relative hearing gain, higher levels of final hearing, white blood counts, neutrophil, platelet and alkaline phosphatase. After adjusting for possible confounders, only serum indirect bilirubin levels were significantly negatively correlated with initial hearing loss in patients with bilateral axillary sputum. 1 μmol/L increase of IBIL was associated with 1.1 dB (95%CI: -2.2, 0.0) reduction in initial hearing loss. Conclusion:Within the normal or mildly elevated range, higher levels of IBIL are independently and significantly associated with less severe hearing loss in BSSHL. It suggested a beneficial effect of bilirubin on auditory system.

Abstract
Objective: To study the clinical subtypes of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) by cluster analysis, and to discuss the characteristics and clinical significance of these subtypes. Methods: A retrospective analysis was done among patients who were diagnosed with OSAHS in the Sleeping Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2010 to June 2018. In this cluster analysis, 16 main symptoms, 7 comorbidities and 3 assessment scales were included. After selecting the best model, the parameters and characteristics of different subtypes were compared and analyzed. Results: A total of 2 592 patients with complete data were included in this study. After cluster analysis, they were divided into 4 groups: sleep apnea group (1 173 cases, 45.3%), daytime sleepiness group (518 cases, 20.0%), insomnia and memory loss group (212 cases, 8.2%), mild symptom group (689 cases, 26.6%). In the sleep apnea group, the patients were found to be younger [(40.2±10.4) years old], with higher body mass index (BMI) [(27.7±3.7) kg/m(2)] when compared to the other groups. In addition, the prevalence of comorbidities of this group was found to be lower, whereas the probability of sleep apnea symptom was the highest (94.7%). In daytime sleepiness group, the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) score was the highest [(12.4±5.5) points], and the probability of daytime sleepiness symptom was also found to be the highest (88.0%). The age of patients in the insomnia and memory loss group was the highest [(51.1±13.0) points], with the highest percentage of women (19.3%). The probability of insomnia was found to be 70.3%, and memory loss symptoms was 88.2% which were the highest when compared to the other groups. The prevalence of comorbidities was the highest, and the scores of short mental state scale (MMSE) and Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) were the lowest with a mean of [(28.5±2.4) points] and [(25.4±3.2) points], respectively, among the 4 groups. The probability of most symptoms and comorbidities were found be the lowest in the mild symptom group. There were significant differences in the main symptoms among the 4 groups (P<0.05). Symptoms like sleep apnea, daytime sleepiness, insomnia, memory loss, headache and dry mouth upon awakening were found significantly different in pairwise comparisons among the groups (P<0.002). Conclusion: The patients with OSAHS can be divided into four clinical subtypes by cluster analysis, each of which is significantly heterogeneous, and this is helpful to evaluate the condition and guide individualized treatment.

Abstract
Background: Bilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss (BSSHL) is rare and assumed to be a different clinical entity compared to unilateral SSHL (USSHL). This study examined the differences between the idiopathic BSSHL and USSHL. Methods: Forty-six sequential BSSHL patients (Se-BSSHL) and 68 simultaneous BSSHL (Si-BSSHL) were consecutively admitted between June 2008 and December 2015. Two sets of patients served as control groups: (1) USSHL patients with healthy contralateral ear and (2) USSHL patients with contralateral preexisting hearing loss (USSHLwCHL). We retrospectively analyzed differences among four cohorts using analysis of variance, Kruskal-Wallis test, Welch's t-test, and Chi-square test as appropriate before and after propensity score matching (PSM) based on age, gender, and body mass index (BMI). Results: The prevalence of idiopathic BSSHL was 8.6% (114/1329) among the total SSHL patients. In the total cohort, USSHL patients tended to be younger, female, and tended to have lower BMI, renal parameters, and total cholesterol in addition to higher high-density lipoprotein compared to the other three groups. Most routine blood indicators, some coagulation markers, and immunoglobulin M (H = 13.4, P = 0.004) were significantly different among the study groups. After PSM, the major significant differences were found in audiometric characteristics. Si-BSSHL and Se-BSSHL patients demonstrated similar hearing thresholds as USSHL but were significantly better than the USSHLwCHL patients across most frequencies before and after treatment (H = 30.0, P < 0.001 for initial hearing and H = 12.0, P = 0.007 for final hearing). Moreover, the BSSHL patients showed different hearing loss distribution patterns (more descending type, χ2 = 33.8, P = 0.001) with less hearing gain (H = 17.5, P < 0.001) compared to the USSHL patients. Conclusions: Idiopathic BSSHL is a relatively rare subtype of SSHL with a higher rate of descending audiogram type and inferior hearing outcome rather than being classified as a completely different disease entity compared to USSHL.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the clinical value of static and dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in evaluating the effect of electrical stimulation combined with biofeedback in the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse postpartum. Methods: A total of 50 primiparas diagnosed as pelvic organ prolapse postpartum from February 2016 to November 2017 were randomly divided into treatment group (24 cases) and control group (26 cases). The control group recovered spontaneously, and the treatment group received electric stimulation combined with biofeedback therapy (6 weeks). All subjects underwent static and dynamic MRI before and after treatment. The thickness of bilateral puborectal muscles, levator ani hiatus area (LHA), H line, M line and levator ani plate angle (LPA) were respectively measured in rest state and strain state at 42 days and 12 weeks postpartum, and the differences of parameters were compared between two groups. Results: (1) Compared with 42 days postpartum, the effective rate of pelvic organ prolapse was 15.4% (4/26) in the control group and 62.5% (15/24) in the treatment group, which was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.01). (2) Compared with 42 days postpartum, the thickness of bilateral puborectal muscles in the treatment group increased at 12 weeks postpartum, while that of the H line, LHA, M line and LPA in strain state decreased. (3) At 12 weeks postpartum, the thickness of the bilateral puborectal muscle in the treatment group was greater, and LHA, M line, and LPA in strain state were less than that in the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion: Electrical stimulation combined with biofeedback therapy can improve pelvic organ prolapse due to vaginal delivery, and the static and dynamic MRI can objectively evaluate the effect of pelvic floor rehabilitation therapy on improving the pelvic floor supporting structure and function, providing an important support and guidance for restoration of postpartum pelvic organ prolapse.

Abstract
Objective:This study aimed to develop predictive models for sudden sensorineural hearing loss through deep belief network (DBN) and explore whether the model performances differ when adopting different outcome criteria. Method: 228 potential predictors involving the clinical characteristics, audio logical data, and serological parameters out of 1 220 hospitalized SSHL patients who were admitted from June 2008 to December 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. The hearing data of sudden deafness were classified into two or four categories based on Chinese criteria and Siegel criteria, which were used to develop the DBN models. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC-AUC) and accuracy were used to compare the predictive performance of different models. Result: The DBN model developed for predicting the dichotomized outcomes had better performance than that of the fourcategory outcomes. When the iteration number reached 500 times, DBN model constructed for prediction of dichotomized outcomes based on Siegel's criteria had demonstrated the best performance with an accuracy of 76.25% and an AUC of 0.81. According to indices from first layer weights, DBN gave a rank of top 10 sensitive features for hearing outcome prediction focusing on indicators regarding coagulation, demographics and pre-treatment hearing levels independent of the outcome assessment criteria. Conclusion: DBN provides a robust outcome prediction ability in SSHL datasets with rich and complex variables, especially when utilized to predict dichotomized outcomes based on the Siegel criteria. In addition, this advanced deep learning technique can automatically extract valuable predictors, which is consistent with those that had been verified in previous studies by traditional statistical methods. This study provides further evidence for extending the use of DBN algorithm to the field of developing prediction or classification models for other otological diseases in the future..

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate and explore the mechanism of the effect of hypertonic pre-injection on postoperative delirium in the aged. Methods: From June 2016 to February 2017, participants scheduled hip arthroplasty surgery were randomly divided into four groups: Group 1 (H1) 30 patients pre-injected 4 ml/kg hypertonic solution were proceeded general anesthesia; Group 2 (H2) 30 patients pre-injected 4 ml/kg hypertonic solution were proceeded spinal canal anesthesia; Group 3 (C1) 30 patients pre-injected 4 ml/kg isotonic saline were proceeded general anesthesia; Group 4 (C2) 30 patients pre-injected 4 ml/kg isotonic saline were proceeded spinal canal anesthesia in Department of Anesthesiology, Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University.All these patients were operated after anesthesia.To avoid electrolyte disorder, the level of Na(+) , Ca(2+) , K(+) in the artery blood was analyzed.Peripheral venous blood was extracted to detect the concentration of inflammatory factors IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α and nerve injury factor S100β.In order to evaluate the relationship of these inflammatory fators with monocyte, we used flow cytometry to detect the number of mononuclear in peripheral venous blood.After operation 1 to 3 days, all these patients were assessed cognitive function by Nu-DESC. Results: Electrolytes fluctuationed in the normal range in four groups at different time points.Compared with before infusion, IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-α of four groups were significantly increased in postoperative.Compared with group H(H1 or H2), IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α were increased and IL-10 was decreased in group C(C1 or C2) after the surgery.S100β of group C(C1 and C2) was higher than before infusion.No significant changes were found in the cotykines mentioned above between group H1 and H2. The expression of monocytes CD14(+) CD16(+) /CD14(+ +) was decreased and the incidence of postoperative delirium was lower in group H than group C(13.3%, 10.0% vs 33.3%, 36.7%, P<0.05). Conclusion: Hypertonic saline can improve postoperative delirium of the aged and the mechanism may be related to the inhibition of monocyte cells secreting inflammatory factors.

Abstract
The present study aimed to compare the expression levels of excitatory amino acid transporters (EAATs) and growth status of piglets weaned at 10–20 days after birth with suckling piglets. A total of 40 hybrid piglets (Landrace × Large White × Duroc) born to 40 different sows, with similar body weight were selected for the present study. They were randomly divided into two groups (n=20 per group): Control group (suckling piglets) and experimental group (weaned piglets, reared in isolation). The experiment lasted for 10 days. At the end of the experiment, 12 piglets were randomly selected from each group and the jejunum and the ileum were collected in order to determine excitatory amino acid carrier 1 (EAAC1) expression levels and free amino acid content. The present study determined that early weaning significantly reduced EAAC1 gene and protein (57 and 73 kDa) expression levels and glutamate transporter associate protein 3–18 (GTRAP3-18; 50 kDa) in the jejunum and the ileum compared with the suckling group (P<0.05). Weaning led to an increased content of free glutamic acid (Glu) and total amino acids in the jejunum; however, content of free Glu and total amino acids in the ileum was significantly reduced (P<0.05). Early weaning reduced the expression of EAAC1 and GTRAP3-18, which was possibly due to the amino acid absorption and transport disorder in the small intestine due to the Glu deficiency.

Abstract
Background: Hypoparathyroidism-deafness-renal dysplasia (HDR) syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder primarily caused by haploinsufficiency of GATA binding protein 3 (GATA3) gene mutations, and hearing loss is the most frequent phenotypic feature. This study aimed at identifying the causative gene mutation for a three-generation Chinese family with HDR syndrome and analyzing auditory phenotypes in all familial HDR syndrome cases. Methods: Three affected family members underwent otologic examinations, biochemistry tests, and other clinical evaluations. Targeted genes capture combining next-generation sequencing was performed within the family. Sanger sequencing was used to confirm the causative mutation. The auditory phenotypes of all reported familial HDR syndrome cases analyzed were provided. Results: In Chinese family 7121, a heterozygous nonsense mutation c.826C>T (p.R276*) was identified in GATA3. All the three affected members suffered from sensorineural deafness and hypocalcemia; however, renal dysplasia only appeared in the youngest patient. Furthermore, an overview of thirty HDR syndrome families with corresponding GATA3 mutations revealed that hearing impairment occurred earlier in the younger generation in at least nine familial cases (30%) and two thirds of them were found to carry premature stop mutations. Conclusions: This study highlights the phenotypic heterogeneity of HDR and points to a possible genetic anticipation in patients with HDR, which needs to be further investigated.

Abstract
Background: The molecular genetic research showed the association between X-linked hearing loss and mutations in POU3F4. This research aimed to identify a POU3F4 mutation in a nonsyndromic X-linked recessive hearing loss family. Methods: A series of clinical evaluations including medical history, otologic examinations, family history, audiologic testing, and a high-resolution computed tomography scan were performed for each patient. Bidirectional sequencing was carried out for all polymerase chain reaction products of the samples. Moreover, 834 controls with normal hearing were also tested. Results: The pedigree showed X-linkage recessive inheritance pattern, and pathogenic mutation (c.499C>T) was identified in the proband and his family member, which led to a premature termination prior to the entire POU domains. This mutation co-segregated with hearing loss in this family. No mutation of POU3F4 gene was found in 834 controls. Conclusions: A nonsense mutation is identified in a family displaying the pedigree consistent with X-linked recessive pattern in POU3F4 gene. In addition, we may provide molecular diagnosis and genetic counseling for this family.

Abstract
Background: The prevalence of sudden sensorineural hearing loss in children (CSSNHL) is consistently increasing. However, the pathology and prognosis of CSSNHL are still poorly understood. This retrospective study evaluated clinical characteristics and possible associated factors of CSSNHL. Methods: One hundred and thirty-six CSSNHL patients treated in Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery and Institute of Otolaryngology at Chinese PLA General Hospital between July 2008 and August 2015 were included in this study. These patients were analyzed for clinical characteristics, audiological characteristics, laboratory examinations, and prognostic factors. Results: Among the 136 patients (151 ears), 121 patients (121 ears, 80.1%) were diagnosed with unilaterally CSSNHL, and 15 patients (30 ears, 19.9%) with bilateral CSSNHL. The complete recovery rate of CSSNHL was 9.3%, and the overall recovery rate was 37.7%. We found that initial degree of hearing loss, onset of treatment, tinnitus, the ascending type audiogram, gender, side of hearing loss, the recorded auditory brainstem response (ABR), and distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) had prognostic significance. Age, ear fullness, and vertigo had no significant correlation with recovery. Furthermore, the relevant blood tests showed 30.8% of the children had abnormal white blood cell (WBC) counts, 22.1% had elevated homocysteine levels, 65.8% had high alkaline phosphatase (ALP), 33.8% had high IgE antibody levels, and 86.1% had positive cytomegalovirus (CMV) IgG antibodies. Conclusions: CSSNHL commonly occurs unilaterally and results in severe hearing loss. Initial severe hearing loss and bilateral hearing loss are negative prognostic factors for hearing recovery, while positive prognostic factors include tinnitus, gender, the ascending type audiogram, early treatment, identifiable ABR waves, and DPOAEs. Age, vertigo, and ear fullness are not correlated with the recovery. Some serologic indicators, including the level of WBC, platelet, homocysteine, ALP, positive CMV IgG antibody, fibrinogen, and some immunologic indicators, are closely related to CSSNHL.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the expression level of serum miR135a-5p and its diagnostic value in colorectal cancer (CRC). Methods: Serum samples were randomly collected from 60 primary CRC patients, 40 patients with intestinal polyps and 50 healthy controls, and the serum concentrations of miR135a-5p, CEA and CA199 were detected. The relationships between serum miR135a-5p level and clinicopathological parameters were analyzed by Mann-Whitney U test. The correlation of serum miR135a-5p level and serum concentrations of CEA or CA199 was analyzed by Pearson's correlation test.Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and area under the curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of miR135a-5p, CEA and CA199 as diagnostic indicators. Results: The serum level of miR135a-5p in CRC patient was 2.451 (1.107, 4.413), significantly higher than 0.946 (0.401, 1.942) in the patients with intestinal polyps and 0.949 (0.194, 1.415) in the healthy controls (U = 351.0 and U = 313.0, respectively, P<0.001). The serum level of miR135a-5p in CRC patients was associated with both histological differentiation and clinical stage (P<0.05 for both), however, not correlated with the serum concentration of CEA (r2 = 0.023, P = 0.293) or CA199 (r2 = 0.067, P = 0.068). The AUC of serum miR135a-5p level in CRC patients was 0.832 (0.730-0.930) when compared to the patients with intestinal polyps and was 0.875 (0.800-0.950) when compared with the healthy controls. Conclusions: The serum level of miR135a-5p in CRC patients is significantly higher than that in patients with intestinal polyps and healthy controls, and might be an important diagnostic marker of CRC.

Abstract
Background: There are more than 300 genetic loci that have been found to be related to hereditary hearing impairment (HHI), including 92 causative genes for nonsyndromic hearing loss, among which 34 genes are related to autosomal dominant nonsyndromic HHI (ADNSHHI). Traditional linkage analysis and candidate gene sequencing are not effective at detecting the ADNSHHI, especially for the unconditional families that may have more than one pathogenic cause. This study identified two disease-causing genes TJP2 and GJB2 in a Chinese family with unconditional ADNSHHI. Methods: To decipher the genetic code of a Chinese family (family 686) with ADNSHHI, different gene screening techniques have been performed, including linkage analysis, candidate genes screening, high-throughput sequencing and Sanger sequencing. These techniques were done on samples obtained from this family over a period of 10 years. Results: We identified a pathogenic missense mutation, c. 2081G>A (p.G694E), in TJP2, a gene that plays a crucial role in apoptosis and age-related hearing loss (ARHL). The mutation was co-segregated in this pedigree in all, but not in the two patients who presented with different phenotypes from the other affected family members. In one of the two patients, we confirmed that the compound heterozygosity for p. Y136* and p.G45E in the GJB2 gene may account for the phenotype shown in this patient. Conclusions: We identified the co-occurrence of two genetic causes in family 686. The possible disease-causing missense mutation of TJP2 in family 686 presents an opportunity for further investigation into ARHL. It is necessary to combine various genes screening methods, especially for some unconventional cases.

Abstract
Antibiotic use in livestock feed additives has resulted in harmful residue accumulation and spread of drug-resistance. We examined the use of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) as a safer alternative to antibiotics in feeding the common carp. AMPs were added to common carp basal diets (Control) as additives at four concentrations: 100 mg kg(-1) (B1), 200 mg kg(-1) (B2), 400 mg kg(-1) (B3), 600 mg kg(-1) (B4) by dry weight of basal diet. After a 60-day feeding experiment, the final weight, DG and SGR of carps on B1, B2 and B3 diet were significantly higher than the control (p < 0.05). The FCR of carps on B1, B2 and B3 diet were significantly lower than the control (p < 0.05). Carps on B2, B3, and B4 diets showed significantly lower (p < 0.05) levels of triglyceride than the control. B4-fed carps showed significantly lower (p < 0.05) levels of total protein, albumin, and total cholesterol than the control. However there was no remarkable difference (p > 0.05) in levels of uric ammonia, globulin, glutamic-pyruvic transaminase, glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase, lactic dehydrogenase and blood glucose in all groups. The serum superoxide dismutase and catalase activity of B1-fed carps was significantly higher (p < 0.05) than the control and B4-fed carps. The serum alkaline phosphate activity of carps on B1 diets was significantly higher (p < 0.05) than B4-fed carps. The serum acid phosphatase activity of B1-fed carps was significantly higher (p < 0.05) than the control and other antimicrobial peptide-fed groups. The serum lysozyme activity of carps on B1, B2, and B3 diets was significantly higher (p < 0.05) than the control- and B4-fed carps. Regarding immune factors in serum, the levels of immunoglobulin (Ig) and interleukin (IL)-1β in B1-fed carps were significantly higher (p < 0.05) than the control and other groups, while IL-1α levels in B1-fed carps was significantly higher (p < 0.05) than the control-, B2-, and B3-fed carps. Furthermore, there were no significant differences in the content of MHC among the five groups. In conclusion, antimicrobial peptide can reduce triglyceride levels in serum, enrich oxidation resistance, and improve immunity of the common carp. It showed that appropriate concentration of antibacterial peptide as supplements in diets for common carp increased the final weight, DG, SGR and decreased the FCR.

Abstract
A couple with a proband child of GJB2 (encoding the gap junction protein connexin 26)-associated hearing impairment and a previous pregnancy miscarriage sought for a reproductive solution to bear a healthy child. Our study aimed to develop a customized preconception-to-neonate care trajectory to fulfill this clinical demand by integrating preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD), noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT), and noninvasive prenatal diagnosis (NIPD) into the strategy. Auditory and genetic diagnosis of the proband child was carried out to identify the disease causative mutations. The couple then received in-vitro-fertilization treatment, and eight embryos were obtained for day 5 biopsy. PGD was performed by short-tandem-repeat linkage analysis and Sanger sequencing of GJB2 gene. Transfer of a GJB2c.235delC heterozygous embryo resulted in a singleton pregnancy. At the 13th week of gestation, genomic DNA (gDNA) from the trio family and cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from maternal plasma were obtained for assessment of fetal chromosomal aneuploidy and GJB2 mutations. NIPT and NIPD showed the absence of chromosomal aneuploidy and GJB2-associated disease in the fetus, which was later confirmed by invasive procedures and postnatal genetic/auditory diagnosis. This strategy successfully prevented the transmission of hearing impairment in the newborn, thus providing a valuable experience in reproductive management of similar cases and potentially other monogenic disorders.
