Abstract
BACKGROUND Pneumococcal Polysaccharide Vaccine (PPV-23), designed to protect against the most common serotype of Streptococcus pneumoniae, is intended to protect the elderly and other high-risk groups. However, the immunogenicity of all 23 pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccines in older adults has not been thoroughly studied. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study is to look into the factors that influence the effect of the pneumonia vaccine on the elderly over 60 years old in Shenzhen, as well as their IgG antibody level against Streptococcus pneumoniae. METHODS To determine the immune effectiveness of pneumococcal vaccination in older adults over 60 years old, we used the 3rd generation enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to detect the antibody level of older adults to all 23 pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccines following pneumococcal immunization. RESULTS Vaccination, the number of physical examinations, pneumonia knowledge, and the pneumonia vaccination policy of the elderly in Shenzhen were all positively correlated with Streptococcus pneumoniae antibody positivity. The distribution of subtypes did not differ between elderly adults (over 65) and younger adults (under 65). The GMCs of IgG antibodies to PPS were significantly lower in males than in females for types 7f, 18c and 19a. At the same time, we found that people with chronic respiratory disease have lower type 9n than people without chronic respiratory disease. Other chronic diseases, such as hypertension and diabetes, had no difference in subtype distribution. CONCLUSION There was a statistically significant difference in antibody positivity rates for older people with more frequent medical check-ups in Shenzhen, indicating that publicity is playing a role. The effects of age, gender, and chronic diseases on naturally acquired anti-PPS IgG differ.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pathophysiology of diabetic encephalopathy (DE), a significant diabetes-related pathological complication of the central nervous system, is poorly understood. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent regulated necrotic cell death process that mediates the development of neurodegenerative and diabetes-related lesions. Quercetin (QE) exerts anti-ferroptotic effects in various diseases. However, the roles of ferroptosis in DE and the potential anti-ferroptotic mechanisms of QE are unclear. PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate if quercetin can ameliorate DE by inhibiting ferroptosis and to elucidate the potential anti-ferroptotic mechanisms of QE, thus providing a new perspective on the pathogenesis and prevention of DE. METHODS The spontaneously type 2 diabetic Goto-Kakizak rats and high glucose (HG)-induced PC12 cells were used as animal and in vitro models, respectively. The Morris water maze test was performed to evaluate the cognition of rats. Pathological damage was examined using hematoxylin and eosin staining. Mitochondrial damage was assessed using transmission electron microscopy. Lipid peroxidation was evaluated by examining the levels of malondialdehyde, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione. Additionally, the contents of iron ions were quantified. Immunofluorescence and western blotting were carried out to poke the protein levels. Network pharmacology analysis was conducted to construct a protein-protein interaction network for the therapeutic targets of QE in DE. Additionally, molecular docking and cellular thermal shift assay was performed to examine the target of QE. RESULTS QE alleviated cognitive impairment, decreased lipid peroxidation and iron deposition in the hippocampus, and upregulated the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway. HG-induced ferroptosis in PC12 cells resulted in decreased cell viability accompanied by lipid peroxidation and iron deposition. QE mitigated HG-induced ferroptosis by upregulating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, which was partially suppressed upon Nrf2 inhibition. Network pharmacology analysis further indicated that the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway is a key target of QE. Molecular docking experiments revealed that QE binds to KEAP1 through four hydrogen bonds. Moreover, QE altered the thermostability of KEAP1. CONCLUSION These results indicated that QE inhibits ferroptosis in the hippocampal neurons by binding to KEAP1 and subsequently upregulating the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease often associated with olfactory dysfunction. Aβ is a typical AD hall marker, but Aβ-induced molecular alterations in olfactory memory remain unclear. In this study, we used a 5xFAD mouse model to investigate Aβ-induced olfactory changes. Results showed that 4-month-old 5xFAD have olfactory memory impairment accompanied by piriform cortex neuron activity decline and no sound or working memory impairment. In addition, synapse and glia functional alteration is consistent across different ages at the proteomic level. Microglia and astrocyte specific proteins showed strong interactions in the conserved co-expression network module. Moreover, this interaction declines only in mild cognitive impairment patients in human postmortem brain proteomic data. This suggests that astrocytes-microglia interaction may play a leading role in the early stage of Aβ-induced olfactory memory impairment, and the decreasing of their synergy may accelerate the neurodegeneration.

Abstract
The objective of this research was to examine the correlation between the status of inactivated COVID-19 vaccination and self-reported confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection among adults after China entered the "living with COVID" era. A cross-sectional online survey was conducted among parents or guardians of students attending all 220 kindergartens and 105 primary or secondary schools in Longhua District of Shenzhen, China during March 1 to 9, 2023. The participating schools invited all parents or guardians of their students to complete the online survey. The study focused on a sub-sample of 68,584 participants who were either unvaccinated (n = 2152) or only receiving inactivated COVID-19 vaccination (n = 66,432). Logistic regression was employed for data analysis. Prior to the implementation of the "living with COVID" policy, 83.5% of the participants received three doses of inactivated COVID-19 vaccines; 63.0% reported being infected with the SARS-CoV-2 after the policy change. In a multivariate analysis, participants who had received a third dose within the past 6 months were less likely to be infected with SARS-CoV-2, as compared to those who had not completed the primary vaccination series (4-6 months: AOR: 0.84, 95%CI: 0.77, 0.92; ≤3 months: AOR: 0.82, 95%CI: 0.73, 0.92). Despite the high coverage, our results suggested that three doses of inactivated COVID-19 vaccines did not provide adequate protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection among Chinese adults.

Abstract
Ageing is a crucial risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and is characterised by systemic changes in both intracellular and extracellular microenvironments that affect the entire body instead of a single organ. Understanding the specific mechanisms underlying the role of ageing in disease development can facilitate the treatment of ageing-related diseases, such as AD. Signs of brain ageing have been observed in both AD patients and animal models. Alleviating the pathological changes caused by brain ageing can dramatically ameliorate the amyloid beta- and tau-induced neuropathological and memory impairments, indicating that ageing plays a crucial role in the pathophysiological process of AD. In this review, we summarize the impact of several age-related factors on AD and propose that preventing pathological changes caused by brain ageing is a promising strategy for improving cognitive health.

Abstract
China started to offer human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines to females aged 9-45 years in 2016. However, there was a lack of reports about HPV vaccination coverage in a representative sample of females in China. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the current HPV coverage and associated factors among females aged 9-50 years in Shenzhen, China, based on administrative health records kept by community health centers. A multistage random sampling approach was used. The research team randomly selected 18 community health centers in Shenzhen, and 3118 health records of females aged 9-50 years were then randomly selected from these health centers. Among all participants, 18.7% received at least one dose of HPV vaccination. The highest coverage was observed among females aged 18-26 years (23.4%), followed by those aged 27-35 years (22.0%) and 36-45 years (20.2%). Such coverage was very low among females aged 9-17 years (4.6%) and those aged 46-50 years (3.2%). Among females aged 18 years or above, higher education level, having a family doctor, and permanent residency in Shenzhen were associated with higher HPV vaccination coverage, while older age and being married/divorced were negatively associated with coverage. The HPV vaccination coverage in Shenzhen was 18.7% and there is a strong need for improvement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Brain metastasis (BM) is most common in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. This study aims to enhance BM risk prediction within three years for advanced NSCLC patients by using a deep learning-based segmentation and computed tomography (CT) radiomics-based ensemble learning model. METHODS This retrospective study included 602 stage IIIA-IVB NSCLC patients, 309 BM patients and 293 non-BM patients, from two centers. Patients were divided into a training cohort (N = 376), an internal validation cohort (N = 161) and an external validation cohort (N = 65). Lung tumors were first segmented by using a three-dimensional (3D) deep residual U-Net network. Then, a total of 1106 radiomics features were computed by using pretreatment lung CT images to decode the imaging phenotypes of primary lung cancer. To reduce the dimensionality of the radiomics features, recursive feature elimination configured with the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regularization method was applied to select the optimal image features after removing the low-variance features. An ensemble learning algorithm of the extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) classifier was used to train and build a prediction model by fusing radiomics features and clinical features. Finally, Kaplan‒Meier (KM) survival analysis was used to evaluate the prognostic value of the prediction score generated by the radiomics-clinical model. RESULTS The fused model achieved area under the receiver operating characteristic curve values of 0.91 ± 0.01, 0.89 ± 0.02 and 0.85 ± 0.05 on the training and two validation cohorts, respectively. Through KM survival analysis, the risk score generated by our model achieved a significant prognostic value for BM-free survival (BMFS) and overall survival (OS) in the two cohorts (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrated that (1) the fusion of radiomics and clinical features can improve the prediction performance in predicting BM risk, (2) the radiomics model generates higher performance than the clinical model, and (3) the radiomics-clinical fusion model has prognostic value in predicting the BMFS and OS of NSCLC patients.

Abstract
Objective.Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation genotyping plays a pivotal role in targeted therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We aimed to develop a computed tomography (CT) image-based hybrid deep radiomics model to predict EGFR mutation status in NSCLC and investigate the correlations between deep image and quantitative radiomics features.Approach.First, we retrospectively enrolled 818 patients from our centre and 131 patients from The Cancer Imaging Archive database to establish a training cohort (N= 654), an independent internal validation cohort (N= 164) and an external validation cohort (N= 131). Second, to predict EGFR mutation status, we developed three CT image-based models, namely, a multi-task deep neural network (DNN), a radiomics model and a feature fusion model. Third, we proposed a hybrid loss function to train the DNN model. Finally, to evaluate the model performance, we computed the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs) and decision curve analysis curves of the models.Main results.For the two validation cohorts, the feature fusion model achieved AUC values of 0.86 ± 0.03 and 0.80 ± 0.05, which were significantly higher than those of the single-task DNN and radiomics models (allP< 0.05). There was no significant difference between the feature fusion and the multi-task DNN models (P> 0.8). The binary prediction scores showed excellent prognostic value in predicting disease-free survival (P= 0.02) and overall survival (P< 0.005) for validation cohort 2.Significance.The results demonstrate that (1) the feature fusion and multi-task DNN models achieve significantly higher performance than that of the conventional radiomics and single-task DNN models, (2) the feature fusion model can decode the imaging phenotypes representing NSCLC heterogeneity related to both EGFR mutation and patient NSCLC prognosis, and (3) high correlations exist between some deep image and radiomics features.

Abstract
CONTEXT Zengye decoction (ZYD) has been considered to have a curative effect on Sjogren's syndrome (SS). However, its therapeutic mechanisms remain obscure. OBJECTIVES This research explores the mechanisms of ZYD against SS. MATERIALS AND METHODS The active compounds and targets of ZYD were searched in the TCMSP and BATMAN-TCM databases. SS-related targets were obtained from the GeneCards database. The GO and KEGG enrichment analyses elucidated the molecular mechanisms. Animal experiments were performed using 8 C57BL/6 mice that served as the control group (physiological saline treatment) and 16 NOD mice randomly divided into the model group (physiological saline treatment) and the ZYD group (ZYD treatment) for 8 weeks to verify the therapeutic effects of ZYD on SS. RESULTS Twenty-nine active compounds with 313 targets of ZYD and 1038 SS-related targets were screened. Thirty-two common targets were identified. β-Sitosterol and stigmasterol might be important components. GO analysis suggested that the action of ZYD against SS mainly involved oxidative stress, apoptotic processes, and tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily binding, etc. KEGG analysis indicated the most significant signaling pathway was apoptosis-multiple species. Animal experiments showed that ZYD improved lymphocytic infiltration of the submandibular glands (SMGs), reduced the serum levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-17, upregulated the expression of Bcl-2, and downregulated the expression of Bax and Caspase-3 in the model mice. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION ZYD has anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects on SS, which provides a theoretical basis for the treatment of SS with ZYD.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological, immunophenotypic, and genetic features of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST). Methods: Twenty-three cases of MPNST were diagnosed at the Jiangsu Province Hospital (the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University), China, between January 2012 and December 2022 and thus included in the study. EnVision immunostaining and next-generation sequencing (NGS) were used to examine their immunophenotypical characteristics and genomic aberrations, respectively. Results: There were 10 males and 13 females, with an age range of 11 to 79 years (median 36 years), including 14 cases of neurofibromatosis type I-associated MPNST and 9 cases of sporadic MPNST. The tumors were located in extremities (7 cases), trunk (4 cases), neck and shoulder (3 cases), chest cavity (3 cases), paraspinal area (2 cases), abdominal cavity (2 cases), retroperitoneum (1 case), and pelvic cavity (1 case). Morphologically, the tumors were composed of dense spindle cells arranged in fascicles. Periphery neurofibroma-like pattern was found in 73.9% (17/23) of the cases. Under low magnification, alternating hypercellular and hypocellular areas resembled marbled appearance. Under high power, the tumor cell nuclei were irregular, presenting with oval, conical, comma-like, bullet-like or wavy contour. In 7 cases, the tumor cells demonstrated marked cytological pleomorphism and rare giant tumor cells. The mitotic figures were commonly not less than 3/10 HPF, and geographic necrosis was often noted. Immunohistochemically, tumor cells were positive for S-100 (14/23, 60.9%) and SOX10 (11/23, 47.8%). The loss of the CD34-positive fibroblastic network encountered in neurofibromas was observed in 14/17 of the MPNST cases. The loss of H3K27me3 expression was observed in 82.6% (19/23) of the cases. Moreover, SDHA and SDHB losses were presented in one case. NGS revealed that NF1 gene loss of function (germline or somatic) were found in all 5 cases tested. Furthermore, four cases accompanied with somatic mutations of SUZ12 gene and half of them had somatic mutations of TP53 gene, while one case with germline mutation in SDHA gene and somatic mutations in FAT1, BRAF, and KRAS genes. Available clinical follow-up was obtained in 19 cases and ranged from 1 to 67 months. Four patients died of the disease, all of whom had the clinical history of neurofibromatosis type Ⅰ. Conclusions: MPNST is difficult to be differentiated from a variety of spindle cell tumors due to its wide spectrum of histological morphology and complex genetic changes. H3K27me3 is a useful diagnostic marker, while the loss of CD34 positive fibroblastic network can also be a diagnostic feature of MPNST. NF1 gene inactivation mutations and complete loss of PRC2 activity are the common molecular diagnostic features, but other less commonly recurred genomic aberrations might also contribute to the MPNST pathogenesis.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the associations between COVID-19 vaccination status and self-reported SARS-CoV-2 infection among children and adolescents aged 3-17 years during a massive COVID-19 outbreak after China changed its zero COVID policy. A cross-sectional online survey was conducted between 1 and 9 March 2023. Participants were the parents of children studying in kindergartens, primary schools, or secondary schools in Shenzhen. Convenient sampling was used. All kindergartens, primary schools, and secondary schools in the Longhua District of Shenzhen invited the parents of children and adolescents attending the schools. Interested parents completed an online survey. Multivariate logistic regression was fitted. Among 8538 participants, 40.9% self-reported that their children had SARS-CoV-2 infection after 7 December 2022, where 92.9% of them received two doses of the COVID-19 vaccines, and 74.6% received their second dose for more than six months. In multivariate analysis, children who received their second dose of the COVID-19 vaccination for no more than three months had a lower SARS-CoV-2 infection rate compared to unvaccinated children (<1 month: AOR: 0.17, 95% CI: 0.07, 0.44; 1-3 months: AOR: 0.54, 95% CI: 0.41, 0.75). The duration of protection conferred by the primary COVID-19 vaccination series was relatively short among children. A booster dose should be considered for children.

Abstract
Objectives: To explore obesity prevalence and its association with dietary patterns among Tibetan pastoralists during the urbanization transition in Qinghai Province. Methods: Using an open cohort study design, 1 003 subjects were enrolled at baseline in 2018, 599 were followed up, and 1 012 were newly recruited in 2022. A total of 1 913 adults over 18 years were included in the study, and a questionnaire survey and health examination were conducted. Factor analysis was used to identify dietary patterns, and a mixed-effects model was used to analyze the association between dietary patterns and obesity. Results: From 2018 to 2022, the prevalence rates of overweight, obesity, and central obesity were 27.6%, 33.8%, and 54.6%, respectively. Age-sex-standardized prevalence of obesity and central obesity increased. Three dietary patterns were identified: the modern pattern was characterized by frequent consumption of pork, poultry, processed meat, fresh fruits, sugary drinks, salty snacks, etcetera; the urban pattern was characterized by frequent consumption of refined carbohydrates, beef and mutton, vegetables and eggs, etcetera; and pastoral pattern featured frequent consumption of tsamba, Tibetan cheese, buttered/milk tea, and whole-fat dairy products. After adjusting for demographic characteristics, socioeconomic status, and lifestyle factors, compared with the T1, subjects in the T3 of urban pattern scores were more likely to be overweight (OR=2.09, 95%CI: 1.10-3.95) and overweight/obese (OR=1.23, 95%CI: 1.00-1.51), whereas those in the T3 of pastoral pattern scores had a lower risk of overweight (OR=0.45, 95%CI: 0.24-0.84), obesity (OR=0.81, 95%CI: 0.69-0.95), overweight/obesity (OR=0.75, 95%CI: 0.61-0.91) and central obesity (OR=0.58, 95%CI: 0.38-0.89). Conclusions: Prevalence of obesity and central obesity was high among Tibetan pastoralists during the urbanization transition. Urban dietary pattern was a risk factor for overweight and overweight/obesity, whereas pastoral dietary pattern was a protective factor for overweight, obesity, overweight/obesity, and central obesity. Tailored interventions are needed to improve local people's health.

Abstract
Background Patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) present intestinal disturbances. Recent epidemiological data have showed that, worldwide, over half of newly diagnosed T1D patients were adults. However, the gut microbial alterations in adult-onset T1D are unclear. We aimed to identify the signatures of gut microbiota and metabolites in patients with adult-onset T1D systematically, comparing with T2D patients and healthy controls (HCs). Methods This study enrolled 218 subjects from February 2019 to April 2022 (discovery cohort: 36 HCs, 51 patients with adult-onset T1D and 56 patients with T2D; validation cohort: 28 HCs, 27 patients with adult-onset T1D and 20 patients with T2D). Gut microbial profiles of the study subjects were investigated by metagenomic sequencing, and their faecal and serum metabolites were measured with targeted metabolomics. The study was registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05252728). Findings Patients with adult-onset T1D had significant differences in the composition of bacteria and their metabolites, characterized by notable depletion of short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria, especially Eubacterium rectale. This was associated with a severe loss of phenolic acids and their derivatives, including gallic acid (associated with glucose metabolism) and 3,4-dihydroxyhydrocinnamic acid (linked with glucose metabolism and pancreatic beta cell autoimmunity). A predictive model based on six bacteria and six metabolites simultaneously discriminated adult-onset T1D from T2D and HCs with high accuracy. Interestingly, bacterial-viral or bacterial-fungal trans-kingdom relationships, especially positive correlations between bacteriophages and beneficial bacteria, were significantly reduced in adult-onset T1D compared to HCs.

Abstract
Traditional T2 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents have defects inherent to negative contrast agents, while chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) contrast agents can quantify substances at trace concentrations. After reaching a certain concentration, iron-based contrast agents can "shut down" CEST signals. The application range of T2 contrast agents can be widened through a combination of CEST and T2 contrast agents, which has promising application prospects. The purpose of this study is to develop a T2 MRI negative contrast agent with a controllable size and to explore the feasibility of dual contrast enhancement by combining T2 with CEST contrast agents. The study was carried out in vitro with HCT-116 human colon cancer cells. A GE SIGNA Pioneer 3.0 T medical MRI scanner was used to acquire CEST images with different saturation radio-frequency powers (1.25/2.5/3.75/5 μT) by 2D spin echo-echo planar imaging (SE-EPI). Magnetic resonance image compilation (MAGiC) was acquired by a multidynamic multiecho 2D fast spin-echo sequence. The feasibility of this dual-contrast enhancement method was assessed by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, ζ potential analysis, inductively coupled plasma, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, vibrating-sample magnetometry, MRI, and a Cell Counting Kit-8 assay. The association between the transverse relaxation rate r2 and the pH of the iron-based contrast agents was analyzed by linear fitting, and the linear relationship between the CEST effect in different B1 fields and pH was analyzed by the ratio method. Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) with a mean particle size of 82.6 ± 22.4 nm were prepared by a classical process, and their surface was successfully modified with -OH active functional groups. They exhibited self-aggregation in an acidic environment. The CEST effect was enhanced as the B1 field increased, and an in vitro pH map was successfully plotted using the ratio method. Fe3O4 NPs could stably serve as reference agents at different pH values. At a concentration of 30 μg/mL, Fe3O4 NPs "shut down" the CEST signals, but when the concentration of Fe3O4 NPs was less than 10 μg/mL, the two contrast agents coexisted. The prepared Fe3O4 NPs had almost no toxicity, and when their concentration rose to 200 μg/mL at pH 6.5 or 7.4, they did not reach the half-maximum inhibitory concentration (IC50). Fe3O4 magnetic NPs with a controllable size and no toxicity were successfully synthesized. By combining Fe3O4 NPs with a CEST contrast agent, the two contrast agents could be imaged simultaneously; at higher concentrations, the iron-based contrast agent "shut down" the CEST signal. An in vitro pH map was successfully plotted by the ratio method. CEST signal inhibition can be used to realize the pH mapping of solid tumors and the identification of tumor active components, thus providing a new imaging method for tumor efficacy evaluation.

Abstract
We present measurements of the cross section and double-helicity asymmetry A_{LL} of direct-photon production in p[over →]+p[over →] collisions at sqrt[s]=510 GeV. The measurements have been performed at midrapidity (|η|<0.25) with the PHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. At relativistic energies, direct photons are dominantly produced from the initial quark-gluon hard scattering and do not interact via the strong force at leading order. Therefore, at sqrt[s]=510 GeV, where leading-order-effects dominate, these measurements provide clean and direct access to the gluon helicity in the polarized proton in the gluon-momentum-fraction range 0.02<x<0.08, with direct sensitivity to the sign of the gluon contribution.

Abstract
The North of Jiangsu was a traditional area for leprosy in Chinese history. In the period of the Republic of China, one of the largest leprosy clinics in China was established in Ru Gao (Jugao) with the help of Chinese and foreign charitable organizations, the Chinese central government and some squires. It was the only large clinic for leprosy in the North of Jiangsu. It was officially opened in 1924, attached to the Presbyterian Church hospital, and was closed in 1927 after the breakout of the civil war. It reopened in May 1933, hosted by a leprologist, Lee S. Huizenga. Ru Gao (Jugao) leprosy clinic treated around 1,000 lepers in the North of Jiangsu with medicines and language communication. The establishment of the leprosy clinic made a historical contribution in terms of preventing leprosy from spreading to Shanghai. It closed in the spring of 1938 because of the invasion of the Japanese military.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Icariin (ICA), an active ingredient extracted from Epimedium species, has shown promising results in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD), although its potential therapeutic mechanism remains largely unknown. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects and the underlying mechanisms of ICA on AD by an integrated analysis of gut microbiota, metabolomics, and network pharmacology (NP). METHODS The cognitive impairment of mice was measured using the Morris Water Maze test and the pathological changes were assessed using hematoxylin and eosin staining. 16S rRNA sequencing and multi-metabolomics were performed to analyze the alterations in the gut microbiota and fecal/serum metabolism. Meanwhile, NP was used to determine the putative molecular regulation mechanism of ICA in AD treatment. RESULTS Our results revealed that ICA intervention significantly improved cognitive dysfunction in APP/PS1 mice and typical AD pathologies in the hippocampus of the APP/PS1 mice. Moreover, the gut microbiota analysis showed that ICA administration reversed AD-induced gut microbiota dysbiosis in APP/PS1 mice by elevating the abundance of Akkermansia and reducing the abundance of Alistipe. Furthermore, the metabolomic analysis revealed that ICA reversed the AD-induced metabolic disorder via regulating the glycerophospholipid and sphingolipid metabolism, and correlation analysis revealed that glycerophospholipid and sphingolipid were closely related to Alistipe and Akkermansia. Moreover, NP indicated that ICA might regulate the sphingolipid signaling pathway via the PRKCA/TNF/TP53/AKT1/RELA/NFKB1 axis for the treatment of AD. CONCLUSION These findings indicated that ICA may serve as a promising therapeutic approach for AD and that the ICA-mediated protective effects were associated with the amelioration of microbiota disturbance and metabolic disorder.

Abstract
BACKGROUND After a stroke, survivors are often left with significant disabilities and are at a greater risk of recurrent strokes. It is vital stroke survivors receive effective treatments to assist with rehabilitation and reduce risk factors for secondary stroke. Observational and preclinical studies have highlighted the promising role of polyphenols in these regards. METHODS A systematic review of original research which assessed the role of polyphenols on health outcomes in post stroke adults was conducted. PROQUEST, SCOPUS (Elsevier), MEDLINE (EBSCO), Embase and Cochrane Library databases were searched up to the 29th of October 2021. RESULTS A total of 9 studies met the full inclusion criteria and were included in this review. Several classes of polyphenols were assessed including hydroxybenzoic acids, stilbenes and flavonoids. Numerous health outcomes were assessed including vascular function, stroke disability, blood pressure, blood glucose and c-reactive protein. The majority of the studies included in this review (n = 8) note improvements in the polyphenol groups for at least one outcome measure. However, small sample sizes, short trial length and reporting bias prevent firm conclusions from being drawn. CONCLUSION This review provides promising preliminary evidence that polyphenols may be beneficial for post stroke adults, however, more research is required. To ensure reliable methodology and replication of results, future studies should include outcome statistics and effect sizes. Trials with a longer duration and large sample size should also be considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The combination of FFDM and DBT can significantly improve the diagnostic efficiency of breast cancer, but with the increase of breast radiation absorbed dose. OBJECTIVES To compare and analyze the radiation dose and diagnostic performance of different mammography positions combinations of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and full-field digital mammography (FFDM) for different density types of breasts. METHODS This retrospective study involved 1,195 patients who underwent simultaneous breast DBT and FFDM. The mammography combinations were Group A, FFDM(CC+MLO); Group B, FDM(CC)+DBT(MLO); Group C, FFDM(MLO)+DBT(CC); Group D, DBT(CC+MLO); and Group E, FFDM(CC+MLO)+DBT(CC+MLO). An intergroup comparative analysis of radiation dose and diagnostic performance of different combinations of mammography positions for different breast density types was performed using the pathologic and 24-month follow-up results as the diagnostic basis. RESULTS Overall, 2,403 mammograms indicated 477 cases of non-dense breast tissues and 1,926 cases of dense breast tissues. Differences in the mean radiation dose for each non-dense and dense breast group were statistically significant. The areas under the diagnostic receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for the non-dense breast group were not statistically significant. In the dense breast group, the z-values were 1.623 (p = 0.105) and 1.724 (p = 0.085) for the area under the ROC curve in Group C compared with Groups D and E, respectively, and 0.724 (p = 0.469) when comparing Group D with Group E. The differences between the remaining groups were statistically significant. CONCLUSION Group A had the lowest radiation dose and no significant difference in diagnostic performance compared with the other non-dense breast groups. Group C had high diagnostic performance in the dense breast group considering the low radiation dose.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is an effective therapeutic modality for cancer treatment with the action of a catalytic Fenton-like chemoreactive process. To furnish sufficient hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) for CDT, catalysts similar to superoxide dismutase are designed to be in cooperation with nanoplatforms. In this work, we rationally integrate lactate oxidase (LOD) with ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (USPION) to achieve high efficiency of the cascade Fenton reaction for efficient tumor therapy. During the sequential reaction, LOD converts lactic acid into H2O2 and pyruvate (PA) in situ, and then USPION with peroxidase-like activity generates large amounts of toxic hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) under the action of H2O2. Moreover, the reaction effectively utilizes the excess lactic acid of the tumor microenvironment (TME) as a new target of cancer treatment. To further achieve high-performance tumor treatment, ultrasound has been introduced for augmenting this specific chemoreactive tumor therapy, which can affect cancer cells mainly through sonoporation, cavitation, and thermal effect. With the effects of ultrasound irradiation, this work has constructed an efficient oncology treatment system for tumors. Moreover, the presence of USPION is highly desirable for contrast-enhanced T1-weighted MRI for monitoring the therapeutic process of cancer in real time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative pathological grading assessment is important for patients with breast phyllodes tumors (PTs). PURPOSE To develop and validate a clinical-radiomics model based on multiparametric MRI and clinical information for the pretreatment differential diagnosis of PTs. STUDY TYPE Retrospective. POPULATION A total of 216 patients with PTs, 133 in the training cohort (55 benign PTs [BPTs] and 78 borderline/malignant PTs [BMPTs]) and 83 in the validation cohort (28 BPTs and 55 BMPTs). FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 1.5 T and 3 T; T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), precontrast T1-weighted imaging (T1WI) and dynamic contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging (DCE-T1WI). ASSESSMENT A total of 3138 radiomics features were computed to decode the imaging phenotypes of PTs. To build the classification models, the following workflow was followed: minimum-maximum scaling normalization method, recursive feature elimination based on ridge regression (Ridge-RFE), synthetic minority oversampling technique, and support vector machine classifier. We established several models based on the statistically significant features (Ridge-RFE selected) of each sequence to distinguish BPTs from BMPTs, including precontrast T1WI model, DCE-T1WI phase 1 model, T1WI feature fusion model, T2WI model, T1WI + T2WI model, clinical feature model, conventional MRI characteristics model, and combined clinical-radiomics model. STATISTICAL TESTS Univariate analysis was utilized to compare variables between the BPT and BMPT groups. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis was used to evaluate the diagnostic performance of these models. RESULTS In the training cohort, the clinical-radiomics model had excellent diagnostic efficiency, with an area under ROC (AUC) of 0.91 ± 0.02 (95% CI: 0.87-0.94). In the validation cohort, the AUCs were 0.79 ± 0.05 (95% CI: 0.70-0.87) for the combined model and 0.77 ± 0.05 (95% CI: 0.67-0.85) for the radiomics model. DATA CONCLUSION Compared with conventional MRI characteristics, radiomics features extracted from multiparametric MRI are helpful for improving the accuracy of differentiating the pathological grades of PTs preoperatively. The model based on radiomics and clinical information is expected to become a potential noninvasive tool for the assessment of PTs grades. EVIDENCE LEVEL 4 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 2.

Abstract
In this study, chitosan-induced self-assembly of montmorillonite nanosheets (MMTNS) along the end-face to form the layered and porous structured composite with high adsorption capacity towards MB dye wastewater was investigated. The self-assembly process was driven by the hydrogen-bond interaction among -OH groups distributed along the end-face of MMTNS and -NH2 groups on chitosan (CS) chain, which finally formed the infinite two-dimensional lamellae. This technology remained the exposed adsorption sites on MMTNS surface, and solved the separation issue of spent MMTNS from water, making MMTNS/CS an excellent adsorption material for macromolecular MB dye. The maximum adsorption capacity of MMTNS/CS towards MB reached 243 mg/g, which was achieved via the Na+- exchange, hydrogen-bond and n-π stacking interactions with MB molecules. This work aimed at breaking through the bottleneck of small adsorption capacity of traditional MMT adsorbents, solving the problem of solid-liquid separation of nanosheets, and effectively reducing the adsorption cost, which might guide an important direction for adsorption material design and development in the future.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a highly life-threatening neurodegenerative disease. Dysregulation of the immune system plays a critical role in promoting AD, which has attracted extensive attention recently. Central and peripheral immune responses are involved in the pathogenesis of AD. Immune changes precede Aβ-associated senile plaque formation and tau-related neurofibrillary tangles, which are the recognised pathological features of AD. Therefore, elucidating immune-related mechanisms underlying the development of AD can help to prevent and treat AD at the source by blocking its progression before the development of pathological changes. To understand the specific pathogenesis of AD, it is important to examine the role of central and peripheral immunity in AD. This review summarises immune-related mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of AD, focusing on the effect of various central and peripheral immune cells, and describes the possible crosstalk between central and peripheral immunity during the development of AD. This review provides novel insights into the treatment of AD and offers a new direction for immune-related research on AD in the future.

Abstract
Background Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia characterized by a prominent cognitive deterioration of sufficient magnitude to impair daily living. Increasing studies indicate that non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are involved in ferroptosis and AD progression. However, the role of ferroptosis-related ncRNAs in AD remains unexplored. Methods We obtained the intersection of differentially expressed genes in GSE5281 (brain tissue expression profile of patients with AD) from the GEO database and ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) from the ferrDb database. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator model along with weighted gene co-expression network analysis screened for FRGs highly associated with AD. Results A total of five FRGs were identified and further validated in GSE29378 (area under the curve = 0.877, 95% confidence interval = 0.794-0.960). A competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network of ferroptosis-related hub genes (EPT1, KLHL24, LRRFIP1, CXCL2 and CD44) was subsequently constructed to explore the regulatory mechanism between hub genes, lncRNAs and miRNAs. Finally, CIBERSORT algorithms were used to unravel the immune cell infiltration landscape in AD and normal samples. M1 macrophages and mast cells were more infiltrated whereas memory B cells were less infiltrated in AD samples than in normal samples. Spearman's correlation analysis revealed that LRRFIP1 was positively correlated with M1 macrophages (r = -0.340, P < 0.001) whereas ferroptosis-related lncRNAs were negatively correlated with immune cells, wherein miR7-3HG correlated with M1 macrophages and NIFK-AS1, EMX2OS and VAC14-AS1 correlated with memory B cells (|r| > 0.3, P < 0.001). Conclusion We constructed a novel ferroptosis-related signature model including mRNAs, miRNAs and lncRNAs, and characterized its association with immune infiltration in AD. The model provides novel ideas for the pathologic mechanism elucidation and targeted therapy development of AD.

Abstract
Background Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) have a higher incidence of malignant tumors than people without diabetes, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are still unclear. Methods To investigate the link between DM and cancer, we screened publicly available databases for diabetes and cancer-related genes (DCRGs) and constructed a diabetes-based cancer-associated inflammation network (DCIN). We integrated seven DCRGs into the DCIN and analyzed their role in different tumors from various perspectives. We also investigated drug sensitivity and single-cell sequencing data in colon adenocarcinoma as an example. In addition, we performed in vitro experiments to verify the expression of DCRGs and the arachidonic acid metabolic pathway. Results Seven identified DCRGs, including PPARG, MMP9, CTNNB1, TNF, TGFB1, PTGS2, and HIF1A, were integrated to construct a DCIN. The bioinformatics analysis showed that the expression of the seven DCRGs in different tumors was significantly different, which had varied effects on diverse perspectives. Single-cell sequencing analyzed in colon cancer showed that the activity of the DCRGs was highest in Macrophage and the lowest in B cells among all cell types in adenoma and carcinoma tissue. In vitro experiments showed that the DCRGs verified by western bolt and PEG2 verified by ELISA were all highly expressed in COAD epithelial cells stimulated by high glucose. Conclusion This study, for the first time, constructed a DCIN, which provides novel insights into the underlying mechanism of how DM increases tumor occurrence and development. Although further research is required, our results offer clues for new potential therapeutic strategies to prevent and treat malignant tumors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study examined the longitudinal relationship between mobility device use, falls and fear of falling (FOF) among community-dwelling older adults by frailty status over a one-year follow-up. DESIGN A longitudinal cohort study. SETTING Communities in the United States. PARTICIPANTS Community-dwelling older adults from the National Health and Aging Trends Study, a nationally representative survey of Medicare Beneficiaries in the United States (N=5,896). MEASUREMENTS Based on yes or no response to the corresponding items for the variables, fall-related outcomes were determined separately including falls and FOF. Falls were assessed by asking participants whether they had a fall and if they had fallen down more than one time. FOF was measured by asking participants whether they worried about falling and if this worry ever limited activities. Mobility device use was determined by asking whether participants used any type of mobility devices and the number of devices used, including cane, walker, wheelchair and scooter. Frailty was assessed using the frailty phenotype. Multinomial logistic regression models were conducted to examine the association between mobility device use and fall-related outcomes among older adults by frailty status. RESULTS At Year 1, 28.6% of participants reported using mobility devices. Among robust participants, using one mobility device had 3.58 times higher risks of FOF with fear-related activity restriction (FAR) than non-device users (95% CI: 1.10-11.65). Cane-only robust users had 5.94 and 2.18 times higher risks of FOF with and without FAR (95% CI: 1.80-19.57; 95% CI: 1.12-4.22) than non-device users. Among pre-frail participants, using one mobility device was associated with recurrent falls and FOF with FAR (RRR=2.02, 95% CI: 1.30-3.14; RRR=2.13, 95% CI: 1.25-3.63). Using ≥2 devices was associated with one fall (RRR=2.08, 95% CI: 1.30-3.33), recurrent falls (RRR=2.92, 95% CI: 1.62-5.25) and FOF with FAR (RRR=2.84, 95% CI: 1.34-6.02). Pre-frail cane-only users were more likely to have one fall (RRR=1.57, 95% CI: 1.06-2.32), recurrent falls (RRR=2.36, 95% CI: 1.48-3.77) and FOF with FAR (RRR=2.08, 95% CI: 1.12-3.87) than non-device users. The number of mobility device used and the use of canes failed to be significantly associated with fall-related outcomes among frail participants. CONCLUSION The number of mobility devices used and the only use of canes were associated with fall-related outcomes among robust and pre-frail individuals. Further research is needed to develop targeted strategies for preventing falls and FOF among older adults with mobility device use, particularly for those in the early stages of frailty.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Alzheimer's disease is a significant public health issue. Recent studies have shown that the gut microbiota plays a vital role in the onset and development of Alzheimer's disease. However, the potential role of the gut microbiota and the associated metabolic characteristics require further elucidation. METHODS The gut microbial compositions of APP/PS1 mice were analyzed using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Metabolomics was used to characterize changes in metabolic profiles in feces, serum, and cortex. A multi-omics approach investigated the potential associations between gut microbes and metabolites. RESULTS The gut microbiota composition was markedly different between APP/PS1 mice and normal mice. Metabolomic analysis identified 253 fecal metabolites, 16 serum metabolites, and 123 cortical metabolites that were differentially abundant in APP/PS1 that may be potential biomarkers of AD. Nearly half of these metabolites were lipids. A combined analysis of the three sample types showed a correlation between fecal fatty acids and glycerolipids, serum glycerophospholipids, and cortical fatty acids. Furthermore, our study showed that Marinifilaceae and Akkermansiaceae were closely related to these lipids and lipid-like molecules, particularly fatty acids and glycerophospholipids. CONCLUSION Our study highlighted the interactions between the gut microbiome and the fecal, serum, and cortical metabolomes. This interaction provides a new direction for further exploring the link between gut microbiota composition and metabolism in Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Background: Bushen Tiansui Formula (BSTSF) is a traditional formulation of Chinese medicine that has been used to treat Alzheimer’s disease (AD) for decades; however, the underlying mechanisms by which this formula achieves such therapeutic effects have yet to be elucidated. Prupose: To investigate the neuroprotective mechanisms of BSTSF against AD by analyzing metabolite profiles in the hippocampus and cortex of AD rats. Methods: The rat models of AD were established by the injection of Aβ25–35. The Morris water maze (MWM) test was performed to evaluate the effect of BSTSF treatment on cognitive dysfunction. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining was used to assess the effect of BSTSF on typical AD pathologies. Underlying mechanisms were investigated using LC-MS/MS-based untargeted metabolomics analysis of the cerebral cortex and hippocampus. Results: BSTSF significantly improved memory deficits and the typical histopathological changes of AD rats. Untargeted metabolomics analysis showed that 145 and 184 endogenous metabolites in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus, respectively, were significantly different in the BSTSF group when compared with the AD group. The differential metabolites in the cerebral cortex were primarily involved in cysteine and methionine metabolism, while those in the hippocampus were mainly involved in d-Glutamine and d-glutamate metabolism. Conclusion: In the present study, we confirmed the neuroprotective effects of BSTSF treatment against AD using a rat model. Our findings indicate that the BSTSF-mediated protective effects were associated with amelioration of metabolic disorders in the hippocampus and cerebral cortex.

Abstract
Background Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive malignant tumor of the digestive system. Its grim prognosis is mainly attributed to the lack of means for early diagnosis and poor response to treatments. Genomic instability is shown to be an important cancer feature and prognostic factor, and its pattern and extent may be associated with poor treatment outcomes in PDAC. Recently, it has been reported that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a key role in maintaining genomic instability. However, the identification and clinical significance of genomic instability-related lncRNAs in PDAC have not been fully elucidated. Methods Genomic instability-derived lncRNA signature (GILncSig) was constructed based on the results of multiple regression analysis combined with genomic instability-associated lncRNAs and its predictive power was verified by the Kaplan-Meier method. And real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used for simple validation in human cancers and their adjacent non-cancerous tissues. In addition, the correlation between GILncSig and tumor microenvironment (TME) and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) was investigated by Pearson correlation analysis. Results The computational framework identified 206 lncRNAs associated with genomic instability in PDAC and was subsequently used to construct a genome instability-derived five lncRNA-based gene signature. Afterwards, we successfully validated its prognostic capacity in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) cohort. In addition, via careful examination of the transcriptome expression profile of PDAC patients, we discovered that GILncSig is associated with EMT and an adaptive immunity deficient immune profile within TME. Conclusions Our study established a genomic instability-associated lncRNAs-derived model (GILncSig) for prognosis prediction in patients with PDAC, and revealed the potential functional regulatory role of GILncSig.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease that can lead to severe joint damage, disability and mortality. Quercetin (QUE) is a natural flavonoid that is ubiquitous in fruits and vegetables. This article reviews the effect of QUE on articular and extra-articular manifestations of RA in vitro and in vivo. In general, for articular manifestations, QUE inhibited synovial membrane inflammation by reducing inflammatory cytokines and mediators, decreasing oxidative stress, inhibiting proliferation, migration and invasion, and promoting apoptosis of fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS), regulated autoimmune response through modulating Th17/Treg imbalance and Th17 cells differentiation, reducing autoantibodies levels and regulating ectonucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase (E-NTPDase)/ectoadenosine deaminase (E-ADA) activities, reduced bony damage via lowering matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1, MMP-3, receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) expression and osteoclasts formation. For extra-articular manifestations, QUE could reverse the neurodegenerative processes of the enteric nervous system (ENS) and exhibited cytoprotective, genoprotective and hepatoprotective effects. In addition, we also summarize some contradictory experimental results and explore the possibility for these differences to form a sound basis for the clinical application of QUE for RA.

Abstract
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the most common causes of dementia. Although significant breakthroughs have been made in understanding the progression and pathogenesis of AD, it remains a worldwide problem and a significant public health burden. Thus, more efficient diagnostic and therapeutic strategies are urgently required. The latest research studies have revealed that neuroinflammation is crucial in the pathogenesis of AD. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs), circular RNAs (circRNAs), PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), and transfer RNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs), have been strongly associated with AD-induced neuroinflammation. Furthermore, several ongoing pre-clinical studies are currently investigating ncRNA as disease biomarkers and therapeutic interventions to provide new perspectives for AD diagnosis and treatment. In this review, the role of different types of ncRNAs in neuroinflammation during AD are summarized in order to improve our understanding of AD etiology and aid in the translation of basic research into clinical practice.

Abstract
Introduction Pregnancy is a time of profound physical and emotional change as well as an increased risk of mental health problems. Providing social support is vital to reduce such risk. Objectives This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed at examining the relationship between social support and depression, anxiety and self-harm during pregnancy. Methods We searched observational studies from PubMed, Psych Info, MIDIRS, SCOPUS, and CINAHL databases. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale tool was used for quality appraisal. The Q and the I² statistics were used to evaluate heterogeneity. A random-effects model was used to pool estimates. Publication bias was assessed using a funnel plot and Egger’s regression test and adjusted using trim and Fill analysis. All the analysis was conducted using STATA. Results Sixty-seven studies with 64,449 pregnant women were part of the current review. Of the total 67 studies, 22 and 45 studies were included in the narrative analysis and meta-analysis, respectively. From the studies included in the narrative analysis, 20(91%) of them reported a significant association between social support and the risk of mental health problems (i.e. depression, anxiety, and self-harm). After adjusting for publication bias, the results of the random-effect model revealed low social support was significantly associated with antenatal depression (AOR: 1.18, 95% CI: 1.01, 1.41) and antenatal anxiety (AOR: 1.97, 95% CI: 1.34, 2.92). Conclusions Low social support was significantly associated with depression, anxiety, and self-harm during pregnancy. Policy-makers and those working on maternity care should consider the development of targeted social support programs to help reduce mental health problems amongst pregnant women.

Abstract
Introduction
Antenatal depression and antenatal anxiety adversely affect several obstetric and foetal outcomes, and increase the rate of postnatal mental illness. Thus, to tackle these challenges the need for social support during pregnancy is vital.
Objectives
This study examined the association between domains of social support and antenatal depressive and anxiety symptoms among Australian women.
Methods
Our study used data obtained from the 1973–78 cohort of the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women’s Health (ALSWH), focusing upon women who reported being pregnant (n=493). Depression and anxiety were assessed using the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression (CES-D-10) scale, and the 9-item Goldberg Anxiety and Depression scale (GADS) respectively. The 19 item-Medical Outcomes Study Social Support index (MOSS) was used to assess social support. A binary logistic regression model was used to examine the associations between domains of social support and antenatal depressive and anxiety symptoms.
Results
After adjusting for potential confounders, our study found that the odds of antenatal depressive symptoms was about four and threefold higher among pregnant women who reported low emotional/informational support (AOR=4.75; 95% CI: 1.45, 15.66; p=0.010) and low social support (overall support) (AOR: 3.26, 95%CI: 1.05, 10.10, p=0.040) respectively compared with their counterpart. In addition, the odds of antenatal anxiety symptoms was seven times higher among pregnant women who reported low affectionate support/positive social interaction (AOR=7.43; 95%CI: 1.75, 31.55; p=0.006).
Conclusions
Low emotional support and low affectionate support have a significant association with antenatal depressive and anxiety symptoms respectively. As such, targeted screening of expectant women for social support is essential.
Disclosure
No significant relationships.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical value of three-dimensional (3D) visualization technique in laparoscopic D3 radical resection of right colon cancer. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 73 patients with right colon cancer undergoing laparoscopic D3 radical operation in our hospital between May, 2019 and March, 2021. Among these patients, 41 underwent enhanced CT examination with 3D visualization reconstruction to guide the actual operation, and 32 underwent enhanced CT examination only before the operation (control group). In 3D visualization group, we examined the coincidence rate between the 3D visualization model and the findings in surgical exploration of the anatomy and variations of the main blood vessels, supplying vessels of the tumor, and the tumor location, and the coincidence rate between the actual surgical plan for D3 radical resection of right colon cancer and the plan formulated based on the 3D model. The operative time, estimated blood loss, unexpected injury of blood vessels, number of harvested lymph nodes, mean time of the first flatus, complications, postoperative hospital stay and postoperative drainage volume were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The operative time was significantly shorter in 3D visualization group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The volume of blood loss, proportion of unexpected injury of blood vessel, the number of harvested lymph nodes, time of the first flatus, proportion of complications, postoperative hospital stay and postoperative drainage volume did not differ significantly between the two groups (P > 0.05). In the 3D visualization group, the 3D visualization model clearly displayed the shape and direction of the colon, the location of the tumor, the anatomy and variation of the main blood vessels and the blood vessels supplying the cancer, and showed a coincidence rate of 100% with the findings by surgical exploration. The surgical plan for D3 radical resection of right colon cancer was formulated based on the 3D model also showed a coincidence rate of 100% with the actual surgical plan. CONCLUSION The 3D visualization reconstruction technique allows clear visualization the supplying arteries of the tumor and their variations to improve the efficiency, safety and accuracy of laparoscopic D3 radical resection of right colon cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pure grouped amorphous calcifications are classified as Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) category 4B suspicious calcifications and recommended for biopsy. However, the biopsies often reveal benign findings, especially in screening mammograms (92.4-97.2%). METHODS Mammograms of 699 pure grouped amorphous calcifications with final pathological results were analyzed in this retrospective study. The maximum span (MS) of the group of calcifications and the MS of the parallel/vertical direction of the mammary duct (MPS/MVS) were measured, and the MPS to MVS ratio was calculated. Based on the MS and ratio, 2 prediction nomograms with other clinic-mammographic features were developed. The discrimination performance of the models was assessed and compared by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Scatterplots were created to determine the cutoff values with fewer misdiagnoses of malignant calcifications and fewer false positives. RESULTS Ultimately, 2 prediction models were successfully developed based on the 4 risk factors of age, purpose of the mammogram, whether multiple or single calcifications, and the MS [odds ratio (OR) =1.06, P=0.02]/ratio (OR =6.05, P<0.001). Both models had good discrimination. The ratio model performed better than the MS model in the training cohort (AUC of 0.875 and 0.834, respectively, P=0.003) and validation cohort (AUC 0.908 and 0.867, respectively, P=0.047). For the group with probably benign calcifications (as detected by the ratio nomogram), the malignancy rates were 2.7% [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.00% to 6.53%] and 1.19% (95% CI: 0.06% to 7.37%) in the training and validation cohorts, respectively, and 44.12% and 47.70% of benign biopsies were detected in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The clinico-mammographic quantitative malignancy risk prediction nomogram showed favorable discrimination and calibration performance. The ratio model showed better diagnostic efficiency than the MS model, and identified >40% of benign biopsies.

Abstract
Objective: To study the prevalence and associated factors of metabolic syndrome (MS) among Tibetan pastoralists in transition from high altitude nomadic to settled urbanized environment, especially dietary factors. Methods: The community-based cross-sectional study included 920 Tibetan adults (men 419, women 501). Data were collected using questionnaires, anthropometric measurements, and biomarker tests. Questionnaires included socio-economic, lifestyle characteristics and food consumption. Principal component analysis was used to identify dietary patterns. The risk factors of MS and its components were analyzed by logistic regression model. Results: The prevalence rates of MS and its components were 32.8% (MS), 83.7% (decreased HDL-C), 62.1% (central obesity), 36.7% (elevated blood pressure), 11.8% (elevated TG), and 7.9% (elevated blood glucose), respectively. The prevalence of overweight was 31.2%, obesity 30.3%. Multivariate analysis showed smoking was associated factor for both of decreased HDL-C (OR=1.239, 95%CI: 1.025-1.496) and elevated TG (OR=1.277, 95%CI: 1.038-1.571). Alcohol drinking appeared as associated factor of elevated TG (OR=1.426, 95%CI: 1.055-1.927). However, physical activity showed as a protective factor for central obesity, decreased HDL-C, and elevated TG. With the increase of age, the adherence to the urban and western dietary patterns decreased, and that to the pastoral dietary pattern increased. By quintiles of dietary pattern scores, the urban dietary pattern was significantly associated with MS (trend test P=0.016). Conclusions: Tibetan pastoralists had high prevalence of both MS and obesity. Smoking, alcohol drinking, the transition from pastoral dietary pattern to urban dietary pattern and inadequate physical activity served as associated factors for MS and its components.

Abstract
Contrast-enhanced MR angiography (MRA) is a critical technique for vascular imaging. Nevertheless, the efficacy of MRA is often limited by the low rate of relaxation, short blood-circulation time, and metal ion-released potential long-term toxicity of clinical available Gd-based contrast agents. In this work, we report a facile and efficient strategy to achieve Gd-chelated organic nanoparticles with high relaxivity for T1-weighted MRA imaging. The Gd-chelated PEG-TCPP nanoparticles (GPT NPs) have been engineered composite structured consisting of Gd-chelated TCPP and PEG. The spherical structure of TCPP offers more chemical sites for Gd3+ coordination to improve the relaxivity and avoid leakage of the Gd3+ ions. The synthesized GPT NPs exhibit a high relaxation rate of 35.76 mM− 1 s− 1 at 3.0 T, which is higher than the rates for most reported MR contrast agents. Therefore, GPT NPs can be used for MRA with much stronger vascular signals, longer circulation time, and high-resolution arterial vascular visualization than those using clinical MR contrast agents at the same dose. This work may make the T1 MRI contrast agents for high-resolution angiography possible and offer a new candidate for preclinical and clinical applications of MR vascular imaging and vascular disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Although the probability of pancreatic cystic neoplasms (PCNs) being detected is raising year by year, their differential diagnosis and individualized treatment are still a challenge in clinical work. PCNs are tumors containing cystic components with different biological behaviors, and their clinical manifestations, epidemiology, imaging features, and malignant risks are different. Some are benign [e.g., serous cystic neoplasms (SCNs)], with a barely possible that turning into malignant, while others display a low or higher malignant risk [e.g., solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPNs), intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs), and mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCNs)]. PCN management should concentrate on preventing the progression of malignant tumors while preventing complications caused by unnecessary surgical intervention. Clinically, various advanced imaging equipment are usually combined to obtain a more reliable preoperative diagnosis. The challenge for clinicians and radiologists is how to accurately diagnose PCNs before surgery so that corresponding surgical methods and follow-up strategies can be developed or not, as appropriate. The objective of this review is to sum up the clinical features, imaging findings and management of the most common PCNs according to the classic literature and latest guidelines.

Abstract
Objectives Doxorubicin (Dox), a chemotherapeutic anthracycline agent for the treatment of a variety of malignancies, has a limitation in clinical application for dose-dependent cardiotoxicity. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between the composition/function of the gut microbiota and Dox-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC). Methods C57BL/6J mice were injected intraperitoneally with 15 mg/kg of Dox, with or without antibiotics (Abs) administration. The M-mode echocardiograms were performed to assess cardiac function. The histopathological analysis was conducted by H&E staining and TUNEL kit assay. The serum levels of creatine kinase (CK), CK-MB (CK-MB), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) were analyzed by an automatic biochemical analyzer. 16S rRNA gene and metagenomic sequencing of fecal samples were used to explore the gut microbiota composition and function. Key Findings Dox caused left ventricular (LV) dilation and reduced LV contractility. The levels of cardiomyocyte apoptosis and myocardial enzymes were elevated in Dox-treated mice compared with the control (Con) group. 16S rRNA gene sequencing results revealed significant differences in microbial composition between the two groups. In the Dox group, the relative abundances of Allobaculum, Muribaculum, and Lachnoclostridium were significantly decreased, whereas Faecalibaculum, Dubosiella, and Lachnospiraceae were significantly increased compared with the Con group at the genus level. Functional enrichment with Cluster of orthologous groups of proteins (COG) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses showed that the Dox mice displayed different clusters of cellular processes and metabolism from the Con mice. The different species and their functions between the two groups were associated with the clinical factors of cardiac enzymes. Moreover, depletion of the gut microbiota could alleviate Dox-induced myocardial injury and cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Conclusions The study here shows that composition imbalance and functional changes of the gut microbiota can be one of the etiological mechanisms underlying DIC. The gut microbiota may serve as new targets for the treatment of cardiotoxicity and cardiovascular diseases.
