Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic and lethal lung disease characterized by progressive lung scarring. This study aims to elucidate the role of the E3 ubiquitin ligase NEDD4 in the ubiquitination of YY1 and its subsequent impact on TAB1 transcription, revealing a possible molecular mechanism in the development of IPF. Through bioinformatics analysis and both in vitro and in vivo experiments, we observed differential expression levels of NEDD4 and YY1 between normal and IPF samples, identifying NEDD4 as an upstream E3 ubiquitin ligase of YY1. Furthermore, binding sites for the transcription factor YY1 on the promoter region of TAB1 were discovered, indicating a direct interaction. In vitro experiments using HEPF cells showed that NEDD4 mediates the ubiquitination and degradation of YY1, leading to suppressed TAB1 transcription, thereby inhibiting cell proliferation and fibrogenesis. These findings were corroborated by in vivo experiments in an IPF mouse model, where the ubiquitination pathway facilitated by NEDD4 attenuated IPF progression through the downregulation of YY1 and TAB1 transcription. These results suggest that NEDD4 plays a crucial role in the development of IPF by modulating YY1 ubiquitination and TAB1 transcription, providing new insights into potential therapeutic targets for treating IPF.

Abstract
Early-stage infective endocarditis (IE) can lead to severe complications, including infarctions and metastatic infections caused by inflammatory embolus shedding. Common embolism sites include the brain, spleen, kidneys, lungs, and intestines. Additionally, acute heart failure (AHF) can occur in up to 40% of cases, and its presence can impact the clinical outcomes of patients with IE. Cardiogenic shock (CGS) is often more likely to occur after AHF has taken place. If bacteria invade the blood, infectious shock can occur. Patients with IE can experience simple CGS, septic shock, or a combination of the two. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) typically serves as a Bridge for Heart failure and Cardiogenic shock. Previous research indicates that there are limited reports of ECMO support for patients with IE after CGS has occurred. Because CGS may occur at any time during IE treatment, it is important to understand the timing of ECMO auxiliary support and how to carry out comprehensive treatment after support. Timely treatment can help to reduce or avoid the occurrence of serious complications and improve the prognosis of patients with IE. Our work combines a case study to review the ECMO support of IE patients after CGS through a literature review. Overall, we suggest that when patients with IE have large bacterial thrombosis and a greater risk of shedding, it is recommended to carefully evaluate the indications and contraindications for ECMO after discussion by a multidisciplinary team (MDT). Still, active surgical treatment at an early stage is recommended.

Abstract
Background Post-operative etiological studies are critical for infection prevention in lung transplant recipients within the first year. In this study, mNGS combined with microbial culture was applied to reveal the etiological characteristics within one week (ultra-early) and one month (early) in lung transplant recipients, and the epidemiology of infection occurred within one month. Methods In 38 lung transplant recipients, deep airway secretions were collected through bronchofiberscope within two hours after the operation and were subjected to microbial identification by mNGS and microbial culture. The etiologic characteristics of lung transplant recipients were explored. Within one month, the infection status of recipients was monitored. The microbial species detected by mNGS were compared with the etiological agents causing infection within one month. Results The detection rate of mNGS in the 38 airway secretions specimens was significantly higher than that of the microbial culture (P<0.0001). MNGS identified 143 kinds of pathogenic microorganisms; bacterial pathogens account for more than half (72.73%), with gram-positive and -negative bacteria occupying large proportions. Fungi such as Candida are also frequently detected. 5 (50%) microbial species identified by microbial culture had multiple drug resistance (MDR). Within one month, 26 (68.42%) recipients got infected (with a median time of 9 days), among which 10 (38.46%) cases were infected within one week. In the infected recipients, causative agents were detected in advance by mNGS in 9 (34.62%) cases, and most of them (6, 66.67%) were infected within one week (ultra-early). In the infection that occurred after one week, the consistency between mNGS results and the etiological agents was decreased. Conclusion Based on the mNGS-reported pathogens in airway secretions samples collected within two hours, the initial empirical anti-infection regimes covering the bacteria and fungi are reasonable. The existence of bacteria with MDR forecasts the high risk of infection within 48 hours after transplant, reminding us of the necessity to adjust the antimicrobial strategy. The predictive role of mNGS performed within two hours in etiological agents is time-limited, suggesting continuous pathogenic identification is needed after lung transplant.

Abstract
Background Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) remains an important cause of morbidity and mortality in non-HIV immunocompromised patients especially in transplant recipients. But its diagnosis remains challenging due to the insuffificient performance of conventional methods for diagnosing Pneumocystis jirovecii(P. jirovecii) infection. Therefore, the auxiliary diagnostic function of metagenomics next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in clinical practice is worth of exploring. Method 34 non-HIV immunocompromised patients who were diagnosed as PJP by clinical manifestations, imaging findings, immune status of the host, and Methenamine silver staining were tested by mNGS from October 2018 to December 2020 in Sichuan Provincial People’s Hospital. The clinical performances of mNGS for P. jirovecii infection diagnosis were also evaluated with genome reads abundance and comparing with other traditional diagnostic methods. Results We diagnosed a total of 34 non-HIV PJP patients by the clinical composite diagnosis. Our data shows that, compared with the clinical microbiological test, the detection rate of mNGS for P. jirovecii in non-HIV infected PJP patients is significantly higher than that of Methenamine silver staining and serum 1-3-β-D-glucan. mNGS can be used as an auxiliary diagnostic tool to help diagnosis. The number of reads mapped to the genome of P. jirovecii and the duration of patients from onset to sampling collection were statistically significant between the two groups (Reads>100 and Reads ≤ 100) (8days vs. 23days, p=0.020). In addition, univariate analysis showed that C-reactive protein (15.8mg/L vs.79.56mg/L, p=0.016), lactate dehydrogenase (696U/l vs. 494U/l, p=0.030) and procalcitonin (0.09ng/ml vs. 0.59ng/ml, p=0.028) was also statistically significant between the two groups. Conclusions An effective detection rate was achieved in PJP patients using mNGS testing of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) or blood. The study also confirmed that the abundance of reads of P. jirovecii is related to the interval between the onset and sample collection. And the inflammation status during simultaneous mNGS detection might determine the abundance of pathogens. Hence, we conclude that the mNGS strategy could benefit disease diagnosis as well as treatment when complicated clinical infections appeared.

Abstract
Pulmonary fibrosis is the result of various diseases with no satisfactory treatment approaches. The exosome-mediated transfer of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) has been implicated in the pathological process of lung diseases. Herein, we investigated the therapeutic potential of HOTAIRM1 transferred by alveolar epithelial cell (AEC)-derived exosomes in interstitial pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and the potential molecular mechanisms. Next-generation sequencing-based gene expression profiling was employed to identify lncRNAs related to IPF. Exosomes were isolated from hypoxia-induced AECs (AEC-exosomes) and identified before use. HOTAIRM1 expression was examined in bleomycin-induced IPF mouse models and the isolated exosomes, and the miRNA downstream of HOTAIRM1 was analyzed. HOTAIRM1 expression was increased in the lung tissues of IPF mice and AEC exosomes. HOTAIRM1 delivered by AEC-exosomes promoted the proliferation and transdifferentiation of lung fibroblasts (LFs). Mechanistically, HOTAIRM1 competitively bound to miR-30d-3p and recruited YY1 to upregulate HSF1 expression. In addition, miR-30d-3p targeted HSF1 by binding to its 3'-UTR and reduced its expression. In vivo assays confirmed the promoting effect of exosomes-HOTAIRM1 on extracellular matrix remodeling by regulating the miR-30d-3p/HSF1/YY1 axis. Overall, HOTAIRM1 loaded by AEC exosomes can accelerate IPF by disrupting miR-30d-3p-mediated inhibition of HSF1 and inducing recruitment of HSF1 by YY1. These results highlight a promising strategy to overcome IPF.

Abstract
Solid organ transplantation (SOT) is the final therapeutic option for recipients with end-stage organ failure, and its long-term success is limited by infections and chronic allograft dysfunction. Viral infection in SOT recipients is considered an important factor affecting prognosis. In this study, we retrospectively analyzed 43 cases of respiratory infections in SOT recipients using metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) for bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). At least one virus was detected in 26 (60.5%) recipients, while 17 (39.5%) were virus-negative. Among virus-positive recipients, cytomegalovirus (CMV) was detected in 14 (32.6%), Torque teno virus (TTV) was detected in 9 (20.9%), and other viruses were detected in 6 (14.0%). Prognostic analysis showed that the mortality of the virus-positive group was higher than that of the virus-negative group regardless whether it is the main cause of infection. Analysis of different types of viruses showed that the mortality of the CMV-positive group was significantly higher than that of the CMV-negative group, but no significant difference was observed in other type of virus groups. The diversity analysis of the lung microbiome showed that there was a significant difference between the virus-positive group and the negative group, in particular, the significant differences in microorganisms such as Pneumocystis jirovecii (PJP) and Moraxella osloensiswere detected. Moreover, in the presence of CMV, Pneumocystis jirovecii, Veillonella parvula, and other species showed dramatic changes in the lung of SOT patients, implying that high degree of co-infection between CMV and Pneumocystis jirovecii may occur. Taken together, our study shows that the presence of virus is associated with worse prognosis and dramatically altered lung microbiota in SOT recipients.

Abstract
If not cured promptly, tissue ischemia and hypoxia can cause serious consequences or even threaten the life of the patient. Hemoglobin-based oxygen carrier-201 (HBOC-201), bovine hemoglobin polymerized by glutaraldehyde and stored in a modified Ringer's lactic acid solution, has been investigated as a blood substitute for clinical use. HBOC-201 was approved in South Africa in 2001 to treat patients with low hemoglobin (Hb) levels when red blood cells (RBCs) are contraindicated, rejected, or unavailable. By promoting oxygen diffusion and convective oxygen delivery, HBOC-201 may act as a direct oxygen donor and increase oxygen transfer between RBCs and between RBCs and tissues. Therefore, HBOC-201 is gradually finding applications in treating various ischemic and hypoxic diseases including traumatic hemorrhagic shock, hemolysis, myocardial infarction, cardiopulmonary bypass, perioperative period, organ transplantation, etc. However, side effects such as vasoconstriction and elevated methemoglobin caused by HBOC-201 are major concerns in clinical applications because Hbs are not encapsulated by cell membranes. This study summarizes preclinical and clinical studies of HBOC-201 applied in various clinical scenarios, outlines the relevant mechanisms, highlights potential side effects and solutions, and discusses the application prospects. Randomized trials with large samples need to be further studied to better validate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of HBOC-201 to the extent where patient-specific treatment strategies would be developed for various clinical scenarios to improve clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Ameliorating graft injury induced by ischemia and hypoxia, expanding the donor pool, and improving graft quality and recipient prognosis are still goals pursued by the transplant community. The preservation of organs during this process from donor to recipient is critical to the prognosis of both the graft and the recipient. At present, static cold storage, which is most widely used in clinical practice, not only reduces cell metabolism and oxygen demand through low temperature but also prevents cell edema and resists apoptosis through the application of traditional preservation solutions, but these do not improve hypoxia and increase oxygenation of the donor organ. In recent years, improving the ischemia and hypoxia of grafts during preservation and repairing the quality of marginal donor organs have been of great concern. Hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers (HBOCs) are “made of” natural hemoglobins that were originally developed as blood substitutes but have been extended to a variety of hypoxic clinical situations due to their ability to release oxygen. Compared with traditional preservation protocols, the addition of HBOCs to traditional preservation protocols provides more oxygen to organs to meet their energy metabolic needs, prolong preservation time, reduce ischemia–reperfusion injury to grafts, improve graft quality, and even increase the number of transplantable donors. The focus of the present study was to review the potential applications of HBOCs in solid organ preservation and provide new approaches to understanding the mechanism of the promising strategies for organ preservation.

Abstract
Legionella pneumophila can cause pneumonia, leading to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Because of its harsh growth requirements, limited detection methods, and non-specific clinical manifestations, diagnosing Legionella pneumonia remains still challenging. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) technology has increased the rate of detection of Legionella. This study describes a patient who rapidly progressed to severe ARDS during the early stage of infection and was treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Although his bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was negative for infection and his serum was negative for anti-Legionella antibody, mNGS of his BALF and blood showed only the presence of Legionella pneumophila (blood mNGS reads 229, BALF reads 656). After antibiotic treatment and weaning from ECMO, however, he developed a secondary Aspergillus and Klebsiella pneumoniae infection as shown by mNGS. Mechanical ventilation and antibiotic treatment were effective. A search of PubMed showed few reports of secondary Aspergillus infections after Legionella infection. Severe pneumonia caused by any type of pathogenic bacteria may be followed by Aspergillus infection, sometimes during extremely early stages of infection. Patients with severe pneumonia caused by Legionella infection should undergo early screening for secondary infections using methods such as mNGS, enabling early and precise treatment, thereby simplifying the use of antibiotics and improving patient prognosis.

Abstract
Hydrogen has been shown to have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, hormone-regulating, and apoptosis-resistance properties, among others. Based on a review of the research, the use of hydrogen might reduce the destructive cytokine storm and lung injury caused by SARS-CoV-2 during COVID-19 (Corona Virus Disease 2019) in the early stage, stimulating ropy sputum drainage, and ultimately reducing the incidence of severe disease. Molecular hydrogen treatment has the potential to become a new adjuvant therapy for COVID-19, but its efficacy and safety require large clinical trials and further confirmation.

Abstract
Primary cilia, with highly regulated cellular sensory functions, play key roles in tissue development and function maintenance. Intraflagellar transport 140 (IFT140) is a subunit of IFT complex A, which is specialized for retrograde transportation in cilia. Mutations of Ift140 are usually associated with syndromic ciliopathy and may cause isolated diseases such as retinal dystrophy, short ribs, and polycystic kidney. However, the role of IFT140 in tooth development has not been well investigated. In this study, a close relationship between IFT140 and dentin formation is disclosed. During tooth development, IFT140 was highly expressed in odontoblasts. To further understand the role of IFT140 in dentinogenesis, Ift140flox/flox/Osx-Cre mouse was generated. The dentin thickness of Ift140flox/flox/Osx-Cre mouse is thinner and the dentin formation is slower than that in control. In vitro, deletion of IFT140 in odontoblasts led to poor odontogenic differentiation, abnormal primary cilia, and decreased Sonic hedgehog signaling molecules. More important, due to loss of primary cilia in odontoblasts by IFT140 deletion, reparative dentin formation was impaired in a tooth-drilling model. These results suggest that cilia gene IFT140 is essential in promoting dentin formation and reparation.

Abstract
AIMS To synthesize silver-loaded mesoporous silica SBA-15 (Ag/SBA-15) materials and examine their antimicrobial action and antimicrobial mechanism. METHODS AND RESULTS Ag/SBA-15 materials were prepared by means of incipient wetness impregnation, impregnation and direct hydrothermal synthesis methods. The antimicrobial activity of Ag/SBA-15 was investigated using Escherichia coli as an indicator bacterium, and the antimicrobial mechanism was explored. The properties and Ag(+) release behaviour of Ag/SBA-15 materials were compared. Experimental results showed that Ag/SBA-15 materials resulted in 7·5 log inactivation of E. coli for only 60 min, which exhibited very high antimicrobial activities at room temperature without using any light or electrical power input. The cell wall and cell membrane were destroyed in the antimicrobial process, leading to leakage of intracellular components. The formation of extracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) involved in the bactericidal process was confirmed. Production of intracellular ROS was also discovered. CONCLUSIONS Ag/SBA-15 exhibited high antimicrobial activity against E. coli. This antimicrobial effect was a synergistic action between extracellular ROS and the toxicity of Ag(+) , which induced intracellular ROS production and subsequent cell death. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This study revealed for the first time the antimicrobial activities and mechanisms of Ag/SBA-15 materials prepared with different methods.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Breast-conserving surgery (BCS) followed by radiation therapy has proven to be as effective as modified radical mastectomy, and has, therefore, been considered as the standard treatment for patients with localized breast cancer in Western societies. However, performance of BCS for the treatment of breast cancer in China is not as common as in Western countries. This study was to evaluate healthy women's attitudes towards BCS in an urban region of China.Method: Between February and March 2009, three hundred and fifty healthy women from three urban suburbs of Taiyuan city in Northern China were invited to complete a self-administered questionnaire. Participants' characteristics, including age, education, occupation, and attitudes towards breast cancer treatment options and involvement of treatment decisions, were collected and analyzed.Results: Three hundred and fifteen women returned the questionnaire. The response rate was 90%. The median age of the participants was 31.2 years old (range: 16 – 69 years old). Among them, 49.2% were married, 27.9% had received high levels of education, and 87.3%, 95.2% and 71.4% would like to know the disease status, to involve making treatment decisions, and to accept BCS, respectively, if they were diagnosed with breast cancer. Women aged above 45 years were more likely to choose BCS compared with those less than 45 years old (73.4% vs 61.5%, P = 0.08). There was no association between choices of surgical approaches and levels of education or occupation. As for breast cancer treatment information sources, 76.8% of the participants mentioned oncologists, followed by the internet (12.1%), friends, and media (10.8%). Almost all responders (93.3%) would like to attend hospitals specialized in cancer treatment if breast lumps were detected.Conclusion: Although only 7.1% of breast cancer patients attending a specialized tumor hospital in Taiyuan city underwent BCS, the current study indicate that most women in Northern China would prefer BCS to mastectomy if they were diagnosed with breast cancer. Therefore, further occupational training is warranted for oncologists in China so that optimal treatments for patients with breast cancer can be carried out.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: The incidence rate of female breast cancer has increased rapidly over the past 20 years in China. It has become the leading cause of newly diagnosed cancer and a major cause of mortality among women in some large Chinese cities with higher socio-economic status. This was partly explained by the change of lifestyle and reproductive risk factors. However, little data exists on the extent to which the menstrual and reproductive factors with breast cancer risk have changed in other less developed Chinese cities.Method: One cross sectional study was conducted in urban region of Taiyuan of China from September 2008 to March 2009. One thousand and five hundreds healthy women were invited to complete a self-administered questionnaire. Participants' characteristics, including age, education, occupation, weight, height, age at menarche, age at first birth, parity, duration of breastfeeding, and age at menopause were collected and analyzed. Study subjects were divided into six groups: younger than or equal to 20, 21 to 30, 31 to 40, 41 to 50, 51 to 60 and older than 60 years old.Results: One thousand four hundreds and twenty eight women returned the questionnaire. The response rate was 95.2%. Median age of women in this study was 39 years old (range: 16 – 86 years old). There was a 4.8cm difference in the mean height between women born in 1990s and 1940s. The average age at menarche dropped from 16 years for women aged above 60 to 14.3 years for those younger than 20 years old. The average birth rate markedly decreased from 4.4 births per woman in the 1960s to 1.1 births per woman in the 1990s. The mean age at first birth increased 5.6 years through the period from the 1940s to 1980s. The breastfeeding time significantly reduced from 20.3 months to 3.6 months over 40 years.Conclusion: This study indicates that there has been significant change in the menstrual and reproductive factors associated with breast cancer risk in the last 40 years. These changes will certainly influence the incidence rate of breast cancer in the local city. Therefore, measures are needed to enhance the awareness of breast cancer and its early-detection methods among the urban region women in China.

Abstract
PURPOSE Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are used as analgesic in postoperative pain to reduce opioid side effects, such as drowsiness and nausea. However, NSAIDs have not been used extensively in cardiac surgical patients due to the fear of untoward effects on gastric, renal, and coagulation parameters. This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of three NSAIDs for pain control in CABG patients. METHODS One hundred and twenty patients scheduled for elective CABG surgery were enrolled in randomized, double blind, controlled study. Standardized fast track cardiac anesthesia was used. One dose of drug (75 mg diclofenac, 100 mg ketoprofen, 100 mg indomethacin, or placebo) was given pr one hour before tracheal extubation and a second dose 12 hr later. Pain was treated with morphine iv and acetaminophen po. Visual analogue pain scores were recorded at baseline, 3, 6, 12 and 24 hr after the first dose of drug. RESULTS There were no differences among the groups in pain scores. Only patients who received diclofenac required less morphine than patients in the control group (P < 0.05). When the total amounts of pain medications were computed to morphine equivalents, only patients in the diclofenac group received less pain medications than the placebo group (P < 0.05). Proportion of patients with postoperative increase of creatinine level (20% and over) did not differ between placebo and drug groups. CONCLUSION Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs may be used for analgesia management post CABG surgery in selected patients. Diclofenac appears to have the best analgesic effects by reducing the morphine and other analgesic requirement postoperatively.

Abstract
The activities of hybrid dimers of alkaline phosphatase containing two chemically modified subunits have been investigated. One hybrid species was prepared by dissociation and reconstitution of a mixture of two variants produced by chemical modification of the native enzyme with succinic anhydride and tetranitromethane, respectively. The succinyl-nitrotyrosyl hybrid was separated from the other members of the hybrid set by DEAE-Sephadex chromatography and then converted to a succinyl-aminotyrosyl hybrid by reduction of the modified tyrosine residues with sodium dithionite. A comparison of the activities of these two hybrids with the activities of the succinyl, nitrotyrosyl and aminotyrosyl derivatives has shown that either the subunits of alkaline phosphatase function independently or if the subunits turnover alternately in a reciprocating mechanism, then the intrinsic activity of each subunit must be strongly dependent on its partner subunit.
