[Clinical characteristics and prognosis analysis of gastric cancer patients with bone metastasis]

Objectives: To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of bone metastasis of gastric cancer, analyze the influencing factors of bone metastasis and the effects of different treatment methods, and provide a basis for early detection and treatment optimization of bone metastasis of gastric cancer. Methods: A total of 142 gastric cancer patients with bone metastasis admitted to the First Hospital of Lanzhou University from January 2011 to December 2021 were enrolled, including 60 cases of simple bone metastasis and 82 cases of bone metastasis combined with extraosseous metastasis. 142 patients with stage Ⅲgastric cancer without distant metastasis and 142 gastric cancer patients with visceral metastasis admitted to this hospital during the same period were also enrolled for comparison. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the influencing factors of bone metastasis, and the Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to evaluate the influencing factors of overall survival (OS) of patients with bone metastasis. Results: Among the 142 patients with bone metastasis, poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma was the main type (123 cases), and 45 patients had simultaneous bone metastasis. Rib metastasis (100 cases), spine metastasis (88 cases), and pelvis metastasis (84 cases) were more common. A total of 110 patients had multiple bone metastasis, and 82 patients had extraosseous metastasis. Results of the stage Ⅲ gastric cancer group, the visceral metastasis group, the bone metastasis group, and the bone metastasis with extraosseous metastasis group were compared. There were significant differences in age, degree of differentiation, Borrmann type, alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase, serum calcium, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, creatine kinase isoenzyme, lymphocyte, hemoglobin, platelet, CEA, CA19-9, and CA724 (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that Borrmann type was an independent protective factor of bone metastasis of gastric cancer (type 3: OR=0.07, 95%CI: 0.01-0.64, P=0.018). Alkaline phosphatase (OR=2.54, 95% CI: 1.07-6.01, P=0.034), serum calcium (OR=2.71, 95% CI: 1.15-6.41, P=0.023), creatine kinase isoenzyme (OR=16.33, 95% CI: 1.83-145.58, P=0.012), platelet (OR=10.08, 95% CI:1.89-53.85, P=0.007), and CA19-9 (OR=2.40, 95% CI: 1.14-5.05, P=0.021) were independent risk factors of bone metastasis of gastric cancer. The median OS of the stage Ⅲ gastric cancer group, the visceral metastasis group, the bone metastasis group, and the bone metastasis with extrabony group were 47, 13, 18, and 6 months, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.001). The median OS of patients with bone metastasis only who underwent primary tumor surgery was 33 months, better than 6 months of patients without surgery (P=0.048). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that extraosseous metastasis (HR=2.45, 95% CI: 1.56-3.85, P<0.001) and decreased hemoglobin (HR=1.54, 95%CI: 1.02-2.34, P=0.042) were independent risk factors of OS of gastric cancer patients with bone metastasis. Conclusions: The prognosis of gastric cancer patients with bone metastasis alone is significantly better than that of other stage Ⅳ patients. For such patients, surgery on the primary site combined with chemotherapy after full evaluation may prolong the survival time.

Search for exotic decays of the Higgs boson to a pair of pseudoscalars in the μμbb and ττbb final states

A search for exotic decays of the Higgs boson (H ) with a mass of 125Ge V to a pair of light pseudoscalars a 1 is performed in final states where one pseudoscalar decays to two b quarks and the other to a pair of muons or τ leptons. A data sample of proton-proton collisions at s = 13 Te V corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138fb - 1 recorded with the CMS detector is analyzed. No statistically significant excess is observed over the standard model backgrounds. Upper limits are set at 95% confidence level (CL ) on the Higgs boson branching fraction to μ μ b b and to τ τ b b , via a pair of a 1 s. The limits depend on the pseudoscalar mass m a 1 and are observed to be in the range (0.17-3.3) × 10 - 4 and (1.7-7.7) × 10 - 2 in the μ μ b b and τ τ b b final states, respectively. In the framework of models with two Higgs doublets and a complex scalar singlet (2HDM+S), the results of the two final states are combined to determine upper limits on the branching fraction B ( H → a 1 a 1 → ℓ ℓ b b ) at 95% CL , with ℓ being a muon or a τ lepton. For different types of 2HDM+S, upper bounds on the branching fraction B ( H → a 1 a 1 ) are extracted from the combination of the two channels. In most of the Type II 2HDM+S parameter space, B ( H → a 1 a 1 ) values above 0.23 are excluded at 95% CL for m a 1 values between 15 and 60Ge V .

Space-Specific Mixing Excitation for High-SNR Spatial Encoding in Magnetic Particle Imaging

OBJECTIVE

Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) is a radiation-free tracer-based imaging technology that visualizes the spatial distribution of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles. Conventional spatial encoding methods in MPI rely on a gradient magnetic field with a constant gradient strength to generate a field-free point or line for spatial scanning. However, increasing the gradient strength can enhance theoretical spatial resolution but also lead to a decrease in the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and sensitivity of the imaging system. This poses a technical challenge in balancing spatial resolution and sensitivity, necessitating intricate hardware design.

METHODS

To address this, we present a Space-Specific Mixing Excitation (SSME) technique for achieving high-SNR spatial encoding in MPI. By utilizing a dual-frequency excitation magnetic field with a non-homogeneous field strength, magnetic particles at each position generate unique intermodulation responses. By performing multi-channel acquisitions across the entire field of view, high SNR MPI signals can be acquired. When combined with reconstruction techniques based on system matrix, multi-dimensional SSME-MPI can be achieved.

RESULTS

The effectiveness of the proposed method was validated through phantom and in vivo imaging experiments. The results demonstrate significant improvements in sensitivity (3.6-fold improvement) and spatial resolution (better than 1 mm) without any hardware modifications.

CONCLUSION

These findings demonstrate the capability of SSME to enhance both the spatial resolution and sensitivity of MPI.

SIGNIFICANCE

This method provides a solution to the ongoing challenge of balancing spatial resolution and sensitivity in MPI, potentially facilitating the implementation of MPI in a wider range of medical applications.

Serum urate levels and neurodegenerative outcomes: a prospective cohort study and mendelian randomization analysis of the UK Biobank

BACKGROUND

Previous studies on the associations between serum urate levels and neurodegenerative outcomes have yielded inconclusive results, and the causality remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate whether urate levels are associated with the risks of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and neurodegenerative deaths.

METHODS

This prospective study included 382,182 participants (45.7% men) from the UK Biobank cohort. Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess the associations between urate levels and risk of neurodegenerative outcomes. In the Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis, urate-related single-nucleotide polymorphisms were identified through a genome-wide association study. Both linear and non-linear MR approaches were utilized to investigate the potential causal associations.

RESULTS

During a median follow-up period of 12 years, we documented 5,400 ADRD cases, 2,553 PD cases, and 1,531 neurodegenerative deaths. Observational data revealed that a higher urate level was associated with a decreased risk of ADRD (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.93, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.90, 0.96), PD (HR: 0.87, 95% CI: 0.82, 0.91), and neurodegenerative death (HR: 0.88, 95% CI: 0.83, 0.94). Negative linear associations between urate levels and neurodegenerative events were observed (all P-values for overall < 0.001 and all P-values for non-linearity > 0.05). However, MR analyses yielded no evidence of either linear or non-linear associations between genetically predicted urate levels and the risk of the aforementioned neurodegenerative events.

CONCLUSION

Although the prospective cohort study demonstrated that elevated urate levels were associated with a reduced risk of neurodegenerative outcomes, MR analyses found no evidence of causality.

MPIGAN: An end-to-end deep based generative framework for high-resolution magnetic particle imaging reconstruction

BACKGROUND

Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is a recently developed, non-invasive in vivo imaging technique to map the spatial distribution of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) in animal tissues with high sensitivity and speed. It is a challenge to reconstruct images directly from the received signals of MPI device due to the complex physical behavior of the nanoparticles. System matrix and X-space are two commonly used MPI reconstruction methods, where the former is extremely time-consuming and the latter usually produces blurry images.

PURPOSE

Currently, we proposed an end-to-end machine learning framework to reconstruct high-resolution MPI images from 1-D voltage signals directly and efficiently.

METHODS

The proposed framework, which we termed "MPIGAN", was trained on a large MPI simulation dataset containing 291 597 pairs of high-resolution 2-D phantom images and each image's corresponding voltage signals, so that it was able to accurately capture the nonlinear relationship between the spatial distribution of SPIONs and the received voltage signal, and realized high-resolution MPI image reconstruction.

RESULTS

Experiment results showed that, MPIGAN exhibited remarkable abilities in high-resolution MPI image reconstruction. MPIGAN outperformed the traditional methods of system matrix and X-space in recovering the fine-scale structure of magnetic nanoparticles' spatial distribution and achieving enhanced reconstruction performance in both visual effects and quantitative assessments. Moreover, even when the received signals were severely contaminated with noise, MPIGAN could still generate high-quality MPI images.

CONCLUSION

Our study provides a promising AI solution for end-to-end, efficient, and high-resolution magnetic particle imaging reconstruction.

Spatial difference on nitrogen removal in the water based on different resolutions for Sanhuanpao wetland, Northeast China

The research on the deviations caused by different resolutions is relevant to the study of spatial scale effects. In 2018, spatial interpolations were performed using the removal ratios of the TN, NH4-N, and NO3-N of the layers of different resolutions, respectively. Based on the mean and the standard deviation, the area, shape, and position were obtained for four levels related to the removal ratios of the three nitrogen forms. The linear and 6th function fitting methods were used to reveal the differences in nitrogen removal in wetland water at different spatial resolutions. The results showed that a resolution of 25 times the original was the key scale of the spatial effects. Due to the fact that 52 of the 72 functions did not reach a significant level (P < 0.05), the spatial scale effect of the nitrogen removal was mainly characterized by disorderly fluctuations. The results have a certain extrapolation value for the analysis of spatial scale effects. PRACTITIONER POINTS: The resolution difference was not sufficient to change the spatial pattern of the geographic phenomena. The resolution of 25 times the original was the important scale for determining spatial effects. When studying the spatial scale effects caused by differences in resolution, it was necessary to comprehensively consider various resolutions.

Acute Necrotizing Pancreatitis Complicated with Paroxysmal Nocturnal Haemoglobinuria: A Case Report

This report presents a unique case of acute necrotizing pancreatitis(ANP) concomitant with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria(PNH), a combination that has not been documented in existing literature. The impact of PNH on ANP and its treatment remains uncertain due to the lack of consensus. The case described herein involves a patient who exhibited both ANP and PNH, subsequently experiencing splanchnic vein thrombosis (SVT), resulting in substantial intra-abdominal and gastrointestinal hemorrhaging. We attempted to analyze the role of PNH in the formation of SVT in ANP and propose some new insights and hypotheses for the treatment of such patients.

Soil ecoenzyme activities coupled with soil properties and plant biomass strongly influence the variation in soil organic carbon components in semi-arid degraded wetlands

Wetland degradation can induce alterations in plant biomass, soil properties, and soil ecoenzyme activities, consequently influencing soil organic carbon components. Despite extensive investigations into the relationships among plant characteristics, soil properties, and soil organic carbon components, the enzymatic mechanisms underlying changes in soil organic carbon components, particularly the impact and contribution of ecoenzyme activities, remain poorly understood. This study compared the soil organic carbon components at a depth of 0-20 cm in wetlands in the semi-arid western Songnen Plain under different degradation levels and explored plant biomass, soil properties, and soil ecoenzyme activities. The results showed that the soil total organic carbon, labile organic carbon, and recalcitrant organic carbon contents in the degraded wetlands were generally lower than those in the non-degraded wetlands. Furthermore, the soil nutrient contents and soil β-1,4-glucosidase, L-leucine aminopeptidase, and acid phosphatase activities were also lower in the degraded wetlands than in the non-degraded wetlands. Vector analysis of enzymatic stoichiometry revealed that wetland degradation did not increase microbial carbon limitation. The soil organic carbon components showed significant positive correlations with plant biomass, soil water content, soil total nitrogen, soil total phosphorus, as well as soil ecoenzyme activities. Variation partitioning analysis revealed that plant biomass, soil properties, soil ecoenzyme activities collectively accounted for 78.5 % variation in soil organic carbon components, among which plant biomass, soil properties, soil ecoenzyme activities, and their interactions explaining 4.2 %, 8.0 %, 7.9 %, and 24.5 % of the variation, respectively. Therefore, the impact of soil ecoenzyme activities and soil properties on soil organic carbon component changes was greater than that of plant biomass, with the interaction of these three factors playing a crucial role in soil organic carbon formation. This study provides a theoretical basis for scientifically evaluating the carbon sink function of degraded wetland soil and preserving the wetland soil carbon pool.

Prediction of hematologic toxicity in luminal type breast cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy using CT L1 level skeletal muscle index

This study aims to explore the correlation between the CT-L1 and L3 body composition parameters and analyze the relationship between L1 body composition and hematologic toxicity in luminal-type breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Data from 140 luminal-type breast cancer patients who underwent surgical treatment after neoadjuvant chemotherapy were analyzed retrospectively. Spearman analysis was used to assess the correlation between CT-L1 and CT-L3 body composition parameters pre-neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Additionally, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors influencing hematologic toxicity. CT-L1 body composition parameters were positively correlated with CT-L3 body composition parameters in 34 patients. Severe hematological toxicity occurred in 46 cases among the patient cohort. A skeletal muscle index (SMI) of < 32.91 cm2/m2, initial tumor size ≥ 3.335 cm, and a glucose-to-neutrophil ratio (GLR) ≥ 2.88 were identified as independent risk factors for severe hematologic toxicity during neoadjuvant chemotherapy in luminal-type breast cancer patients. The sample size in this study is small, and the predictive capacity of GLR in hematologic toxicity requires further research for comprehensive validation. CT-L1 analysis represents a viable alternative to CT-L3 analysis for body composition assessment. Patients with a low skeletal muscle index were more prone to experiencing severe hematologic toxicity during neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Discovery of a Photoaffinity Probe that Captures the Active Conformation of the Cannabinoid CB2 Receptor

The cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2R) is a G protein-coupled receptor with therapeutic potential for the treatment of inflammatory disorders. Fluorescent probes are desirable to study its receptor localization, expression and occupancy. Previously, we have reported a photoaffinity probe LEI-121 that stabilized the inactive conformation of the CB2R. Here, we report the structure-based design of a novel bifunctional probe that captures the active conformation of the CB2R upon irradiation with light. An alkyne handle was incorporated to visualize the receptor using click-chemistry with fluorophore-azides. These probes may hold promise to study different receptor conformations in relation to their cellular localization and function.

Fast System Matrix Generation Based on Single Angle Calibration in Open-Sided Field Free Line Magnetic Particle Imaging

OBJECTIVE

Open-sided field-free line magnetic particle imaging (OS FFL MPI) is a novel medical imaging system configuration that has received significant attention in recent years. However, the measurement-based system matrix (SM) image reconstruction for OS FFL MPI typically requires multiple angle calibration (MAC), which is time-consuming in practice.

METHODS

To address this issue, we propose a fast 2D SM generation method that requires only a single angle calibration (SAC). The SAC method exploits the rotational invariance of the system function. Based on the measured single angle system function, the system function is rotated to generate system functions at other angles, and then the SM for image reconstruction is constructed. Then, we conducted various simulation experiments and built an OS FFL MPI scanner to evaluate the proposed SAC method.

RESULTS

The experiments demonstrating the effectiveness of SAC in reducing calibration workload, requiring fewer scanning numbers while maintaining a similar image reconstruction quality compared to MAC method. Furthermore, the SM generated by SAC produces consistent imaging results with the SM generated by MAC, regardless of the interpolation algorithms, the number of rotation angles, or the signal-to-noise ratios employed in phantom imaging experiments.

CONCLUSION

SAC has been experimentally verified to reduce acquisition time while maintaining accurate and robust reconstruction performance.

SIGNIFICANCE

The significance of SAC lies in its contribution to improving calibration efficiency in OS FFL MPI, potentially facilitating the implementation of MPI in a wider range of applications.

Relationship between fatty acid intake and aging: a Mendelian randomization study

BACKGROUND

Observational studies have previously shown a possible link between fatty acids and aging-related diseases, raising questions about its health implications. However, the causal relationship between the two remains uncertain.

METHODS

Univariable and multivariable Mendelian randomization (MR) was used to analyze the relationship between five types of fatty acids-polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA), monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA), saturated fatty acid (SFA), Omega-6 fatty acid (Omega-6 FA), and Omega-3 fatty acid (Omega-3 FA) and three markers of aging: telomere length (TL), frailty index (FI), and facial aging (FclAg). The primary approach for Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis involved utilizing the inverse variance weighted (IVW) method, with additional supplementary methods employed.

RESULTS

Univariate MR analysis revealed that MUFA, PUFA, SFA, and Omega-6 fatty acids were positively associated with TL (MUFA OR: 1.019, 95% CI: 1.006-1.033; PUFA OR: 1.014, 95% CI: 1.002-1.026; SFA OR: 1.016, 95% CI: 1.002-1.031; Omega-6 FAs OR=1.031, 95% CI: 1.006-1.058). PUFA was also associated with a higher FI (OR: 1.033, 95% CI: 1.009-1.057). In multivariate MR analysis, after adjusting for mutual influences among the five fatty acids, MUFA and PUFA were positively independently associated with TL (MUFA OR: 1.1508, 95% CI = 1.0724-1.2350; PUFA OR: 1.1670, 95% CI = 1.0497-1.2973, while SFA was negatively correlated (OR: 0.8005, 95% CI: 0.7045-0.9096).

CONCLUSIONS

Our research presents compelling evidence of a causal association between certain fatty acids and indicators of the aging process. In particular, MUFA and PUFA may play a role in slowing down the aging process, while SFAs may contribute to accelerated aging. These findings could have significant implications for dietary recommendations aimed at promoting healthy aging.

Observation of WWγ Production and Search for Hγ Production in Proton-Proton Collisions at sqrt[s]=13 TeV

The observation of WWγ production in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV with an integrated luminosity of 138  fb^{-1} is presented. The observed (expected) significance is 5.6 (5.1) standard deviations. Events are selected by requiring exactly two leptons (one electron and one muon) of opposite charge, moderate missing transverse momentum, and a photon. The measured fiducial cross section for WWγ is 5.9±0.8(stat)±0.8(syst)±0.7(modeling)  fb, in agreement with the next-to-leading order quantum chromodynamics prediction. The analysis is extended with a search for the associated production of the Higgs boson and a photon, which is generated by a coupling of the Higgs boson to light quarks. The result is used to constrain the Higgs boson couplings to light quarks.

Tumor Exosomal ENPP1 Hydrolyzes cGAMP to Inhibit cGAS-STING Signaling

To evade immune surveillance, tumor cells express ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1) on the surface of their membrane, which degrades extracellular cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP), thereby inhibiting the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) stimulator of interferon gene (STING) DNA-sensing pathway. To fully understand this tumor stealth mechanism, it is essential to determine whether other forms of ENPP1 with hydrolytic cGAMP activity also are present in the tumor microenvironment to regulate this innate immune pathway. Herein, it is reported that various tumor-derived exosomes carry ENPP1, and can hydrolyze synthetic 2'3'-cGAMP and endogenous 2'3'-cGAMP produced by cells to inhibit cGAS-STING pathway in immune cells. Moreover, tumor exosomal ENPP1 also can hydrolyze 2'3'-cGAMP bound to LL-37 (an effective transporter of 2'3'-cGAMP) to inhibit STING signaling. Furthermore, high expression of ENPP1 in exosomes is observed isolated from human breast and lung cancer tissue, and tumor exosomal ENPP1 inhibited the immune infiltration of CD8+ T cells and CD4+ T cells. The results elucidate the essential function of tumor exosomal ENPP1 in the cGAS-STING pathway, furthering understanding of the crosstalk between the tumor cells and immune system.

A Novel Local Magnetic Fluid Hyperthermia Based on High Gradient Field Guided by Magnetic Particle Imaging

Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI)-guided Magnetic Fluid Hyperthermia (MFH) has the potential for widespread utilization, as it allows for the prediction of magnetothermal dosage, real-time visualization of the thermal therapy process, and precise localization of the lesion area. However, the existing MPI-guided MFH (MPI-MFH) method is insensitive to concentration gradients of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and is susceptible to causing damage to normal tissues with high MNP concentrations during MFH treatment, while inadequately heating tumor tissues with lower MNP concentrations. In this work, we established a relationship between MNP concentration and heating efficiency through simulations and phantom measurements, enabling the optimal selection of MFH parameters guided by MPI. Based on these findings, we developed a high-gradient field MPI-MFH method using a fieldfree point (FFP) approach to achieve precise local heating. Phantom experiments and in vivo glioma model experiments were conducted to validate this proposed method. The results demonstrated that the proposed method of MPIMFH can improve the MNP concentration gradient sensitivity to ±1 mg/ml, thereby enabling more effective lesion-site heating without damaging normal tissues. This method not only reduced glioma size effectively but also holds promise for application in various other types of cancers.

New Structures in the J/ψJ/ψ Mass Spectrum in Proton-Proton Collisions at sqrt[s]=13 TeV

A search is reported for near-threshold structures in the J/ψJ/ψ invariant mass spectrum produced in proton-proton collisions at sqrt[s]=13  TeV from data collected by the CMS experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 135  fb^{-1}. Three structures are found, and a model with quantum interference among these structures provides a good description of the data. A new structure is observed with a local significance above 5 standard deviations at a mass of 6638_{-38}^{+43}(stat)_{-31}^{+16}(syst)  MeV. Another structure with even higher significance is found at a mass of 6847_{-28}^{+44}(stat)_{-20}^{+48}(syst)  MeV, which is consistent with the X(6900) resonance reported by the LHCb experiment and confirmed by the ATLAS experiment. Evidence for another new structure, with a local significance of 4.7 standard deviations, is found at a mass of 7134_{-25}^{+48}(stat)_{-15}^{+41}(syst)  MeV. Results are also reported for a model without interference, which does not fit the data as well and shows mass shifts up to 150 MeV relative to the model with interference.

In Situ Detection of Nucleic Acids in Extracellular Vesicles via Membrane Fusion

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) carry diverse biomolecules (e. g., nucleic acids, proteins) for intercellular communication, serving as important markers for diseases. Analyzing nucleic acids derived from EVs enables non-invasive disease diagnosis and prognosis evaluation. Membrane fusion, a fundamental cellular process wherein two lipid membranes merge, facilitates cell communication and cargo transport. Building on this natural phenomenon, recent years have witnessed the emergence of membrane fusion-based strategies for the detection of nucleic acids within EVs. These strategies entail the encapsulation of detection probes within either artificial or natural vesicles, followed by the induction of membrane fusion with EVs to deliver probes. This innovative approach not only enables in situ detection of nucleic acids within EVs but also ensures the maintenance of structural integrity of EVs, thus preventing nucleic acid degradation and minimizing the interference from free nucleic acids. This concept categorizes approaches into universal and targeted membrane fusion strategies, and discusses their application potential, and challenges and future prospects.

Spatio-temporal evolution and driving factors of new urbanization in central China based on multi-source data

Urbanization is an inevitable outcome of the development of human society to a certain stage, and it is also an irreversible pattern of the concentration degree of human society. Based on multi-source data such as remote sensing images, ecological environment and socio-economic data, the evaluation index system of new urbanization is constructed from multi-dimensions of population, economy, society, space and ecology. To explore the spatio temporal evolution and driving factors of urbanization in 80 prefecture-level cities in central China from 2013 to 2021 by using entropy method, spatial autocorrelation model and geographic detector. The results show that: (1) The level of new urbanization continues to grow, with the average value rising from 0.1562 in 2013 to 0.2557 in 2021, and the regional differences are obvious, forming a circle structure with Wuhan, Zhengzhou and other provincial capitals as the center and weakening radiation to surrounding cities. (2) The agglomeration of ecological urbanization is significant, and the agglomeration trend is gradually enhanced. The high-high agglomeration areas tend to Xinzhou City, most prefecture-level cities in Hubei Province and some prefecture-level cities in Southern Hunan Province, while the low-low agglomeration areas tend to Changzhi City, most prefecture level cities in Henan Province and some prefecture-level cities in Northern Anhui Province. (3) The night light index, total retail sales of consumer goods, investment in fixed assets, proportion of built-up areas and urban economic density are the main driving factors affecting the level of new urbanization. (4) The interaction of driving factors shows double factor enhancement and nonlinear enhancement effects.

Global epidemiology of type 2 diabetes in patients with NAFLD or MAFLD: a systematic review and meta-analysis

BACKGROUND

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) shares common pathophysiological mechanisms with type 2 diabetes, making them significant risk factors for type 2 diabetes. The present study aimed to assess the epidemiological feature of type 2 diabetes in patients with NAFLD or MAFLD at global levels.

METHODS

Published studies were searched for terms that included type 2 diabetes, and NAFLD or MAFLD using PubMed, EMBASE, MEDLINE, and Web of Science databases from their inception to December 2022. The pooled global and regional prevalence and incidence density of type 2 diabetes in patients with NAFLD or MAFLD were evaluated using random-effects meta-analysis. Potential sources of heterogeneity were investigated using stratified meta-analysis and meta-regression.

RESULTS

A total of 395 studies (6,878,568 participants with NAFLD; 1,172,637 participants with MAFLD) from 40 countries or areas were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled prevalence of type 2 diabetes among NAFLD or MAFLD patients was 28.3% (95% confidence interval 25.2-31.6%) and 26.2% (23.9-28.6%) globally. The incidence density of type 2 diabetes in NAFLD or MAFLD patients was 24.6 per 1000-person year (20.7 to 29.2) and 26.9 per 1000-person year (7.3 to 44.4), respectively.

CONCLUSIONS

The present study describes the global prevalence and incidence of type 2 diabetes in patients with NAFLD or MAFLD. The study findings serve as a valuable resource to assess the global clinical and economic impact of type 2 diabetes in patients with NAFLD or MAFLD.

The BMAL1/HIF2A heterodimer modulates circadian variations of myocardial injury

Acute myocardial infarction stands as a prominent cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide 1-6 . Clinical studies have demonstrated that the severity of cardiac injury following myocardial infarction exhibits a circadian pattern, with larger infarct sizes and poorer outcomes in patients experiencing morning onset myocardial infarctions 7-14 . However, the molecular mechanisms that govern circadian variations of myocardial injury remain unclear. Here, we show that BMAL1 14-20 , a core circadian transcription factor, orchestrates diurnal variability in myocardial injury. Unexpectedly, BMAL1 modulates circadian-dependent cardiac injury by forming a transcriptionally active heterodimer with a non-canonical partner, hypoxia-inducible factor 2 alpha (HIF2A) 6,21-23 , in a diurnal manner. Substantiating this finding, we determined the cryo-EM structure of the BMAL1/HIF2A/DNA complex, revealing a previously unknown capacity for structural rearrangement within BMAL1, which enables the crosstalk between circadian rhythms and hypoxia signaling. Furthermore, we identified amphiregulin (AREG) as a rhythmic transcriptional target of the BMAL1/HIF2A heterodimer, critical for regulating circadian variations of myocardial injury. Finally, pharmacologically targeting the BMAL1/HIF2A-AREG pathway provides effective cardioprotection, with maximum efficacy when aligned with the pathway's circadian trough. Our findings not only uncover a novel mechanism governing the circadian variations of myocardial injury but also pave the way for innovative circadian-based treatment strategies, potentially shifting current treatment paradigms for myocardial infarction.

Search for Scalar Leptoquarks Produced via τ-Lepton-Quark Scattering in pp Collisions at sqrt[s]=13 TeV

The first search for scalar leptoquarks produced in τ-lepton-quark collisions is presented. It is based on a set of proton-proton collision data recorded with the CMS detector at the LHC at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138  fb^{-1}. The reconstructed final state consists of a jet, significant missing transverse momentum, and a τ lepton reconstructed through its hadronic or leptonic decays. Limits are set on the product of the leptoquark production cross section and branching fraction and interpreted as exclusions in the plane of the leptoquark mass and the leptoquark-τ-quark coupling strength.

Altered N6-Methyladenosine Modification Patterns and Transcript Profiles Contributes to Cognitive Dysfunction in High-Fat Induced Diabetic Mice

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) constitutes the paramount post-transcriptional modification within eukaryotic mRNA. This modification is subjected to stimulus-dependent regulation within the central nervous system of mammals, being influenced by sensory experiences, learning processes, and injuries. The patterns of m6A methylation within the hippocampal region of diabetes cognitive impairment (DCI) has not been investigated. A DCI model was established by feeding a high-fat diet to C57BL/6J mice. m6A and RNA sequencing was conducted to profile the m6A-tagged transcripts in the hippocampus. Methylated RNA immunoprecipitation with next-generation sequencing and RNA sequencing analyses yielded differentially m6A-modified and expressed genes in the hippocampus of DCI mice, which were enriched in pathways involving synaptic transmission and axonal guidance. Mechanistic analyses revealed a remarkable change in m6A modification levels through alteration of the mRNA expression of m6A methyltransferases (METTL3 and METTL14) and demethylase (FTO) in the hippocampus of DCI mice. We identified a co-mediated specific RNA regulatory strategy that broadens the epigenetic regulatory mechanism of RNA-induced neurodegenerative disorders associated with metabolic and endocrine diseases.

Proper C/N ratio enhances the effect of plant diversity on nitrogen removal and greenhouse effect mitigation in floating constructed wetlands

Treating wastewater with low carbon-to-nitrogen (C/N) ratios by constructed wetlands (CWs) is still problematic. Adding chemicals is costly and may cause secondary pollution. Configuring plant diversity in substrate-based CWs has been found to be a better way to treat low-C/N wastewater, but wastewater treatment in floating CWs needs to be studied. In this study, wastewater with C/N ratios of 5 and 10 were set in simulated floating CWs, and 9 combinations with plant species richness (SR) of 1, 3, and 4 were configured. The results showed that (1) increasing SR improved the total N mass removal (NMR) by 29% at a C/N ratio of 5 but not 10; (2) the presence of Oenanthe javanica in the microcosms increased the NMR by 13% and 20% with C/N ratios of 5 and 10, respectively; (3) increasing SR mitigated the net global warming potential (GWP) by 120% at a C/N ratio of 5 but not 10; and (4) a Hemerocallis fulva × O. javanica × Echinodorus parviflours × Iris hybrids mixture resulted in a high NMR and low net GWP. In summary, assembling plant diversity in floating CWs is an efficient and clean measure during the treatment of wastewater with a C/N ratio of 5.

Search for Inelastic Dark Matter in Events with Two Displaced Muons and Missing Transverse Momentum in Proton-Proton Collisions at sqrt[s]=13 TeV

A search for dark matter in events with a displaced nonresonant muon pair and missing transverse momentum is presented. The analysis is performed using an integrated luminosity of 138  fb^{-1} of proton-proton (pp) collision data at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV produced by the LHC in 2016-2018. No significant excess over the predicted backgrounds is observed. Upper limits are set on the product of the inelastic dark matter production cross section σ(pp→A^{'}→χ_{1}χ_{2}) and the decay branching fraction B(χ_{2}→χ_{1}μ^{+}μ^{-}), where A^{'} is a dark photon and χ_{1} and χ_{2} are states in the dark sector with near mass degeneracy. This is the first dedicated collider search for inelastic dark matter.

Longitudinal progression of blood biomarkers reveals a key role of astrocyte reactivity in preclinical Alzheimer's disease

Defining the progression of blood biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is essential for targeting treatments in patients most likely to benefit from early intervention. We delineated the temporal ordering of blood biomarkers a decade prior to the onset of AD symptoms in participants in the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging. We show that increased astrocyte reactivity, assessed by elevated glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) levels is an early event in the progression of blood biomarker changes in preclinical AD. In AD-converters who are initially cognitively unimpaired (N=158, 377 serial plasma samples), higher plasma GFAP levels are observed as early as 10-years prior to the onset of cognitive impairment due to incident AD compared to individuals who remain cognitively unimpaired (CU, N=160, 379 serial plasma samples). Plasma GFAP levels in AD-converters remain elevated 5-years prior to and coincident with the onset of cognitive impairment due to AD. In participants with neuropathologically confirmed AD, plasma GFAP levels are elevated relative to cognitively normal individuals and intermediate in those who remain cognitively unimpaired despite significant AD pathology (asymptomatic AD). Higher plasma GFAP levels at death are associated with greater severity of both neuritic plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. In the 5XFAD transgenic model of AD, we observed greater GFAP levels in the cortex and hippocampus of transgenic mice relative to wild-type prior to the development of cognitive impairment. Reactive astrocytosis, an established biological response to neuronal injury, may be an early initiator of AD pathogenesis and a promising therapeutic target.

[The ventilation efficacy and safety of new nasopharyngeal airway applied in left atrial appendage occlusion]

Objective: The present retrospective study aimed to analyses the ventilation efficacy and safety of new nasopharyngeal airway applied in left atrial appendage occlusion. Methods: A total of 37 advanced aged patients diagnosed with atrial fibrillation(>65 years)who underwent left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) in Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University from March 2021 to March 2022 were enrolled in this study. All patients received supplemental oxygen by a new nasopharyngeal airway to ensure intraoperative ventilation. The primary outcome was the occurrence of hypoxemia. The secondary outcomes included the incidence of hypotension after anesthesia, the incidence of body movement during surgery, significant fluctuations of the vital signs such as mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), saturation of pulse oxygen (SpO2) and respiratory rate (RR) at different time points (T1: pre-operation; T2: at the time of placing nasopharyngeal airway; T3: at the time of placing transesophageal echocardiography(TEE); T4: at the time of TEE intraoperative exploration; T5: end of the surgery; T6: at the time of patient woke up), and the incidence of postoperative adverse events. Results: There were 24 males and 13 females with a mean age of (73.8±7.7) years. The incidence of hypoxemia was 16.2% (6/37), which could return to normal after simple treatment. The incidence of hypotension was 27.0% (10/37), occurred after anesthesia induction mainly.32.4% (12/37) of the patients experienced movements, but no adverse events led to surgical termination. MAP at different time points was significantly different (P=0.001), but other vital signs of HR, SpO2 and RR were not significantly different(all P>0.05), without serious hemodynamic fluctuations. The incidence of postoperative adverse cardiovascular events was 10.8% (4/37), and delirium was 2.7% (1/37). All patients successfully completed the surgery and were safely discharged from the hospital. Conclusion: The new nasopharyngeal airway can meet the requirements of airway management during left atrial appendage occlusion under intravenous anesthesia without serious adverse events.

Decoder-seq enhances mRNA capture efficiency in spatial RNA sequencing

Spatial transcriptomics technologies with high resolution often lack high sensitivity in mRNA detection. Here we report a dendrimeric DNA coordinate barcoding design for spatial RNA sequencing (Decoder-seq), which offers both high sensitivity and high resolution. Decoder-seq combines dendrimeric nanosubstrates with microfluidic coordinate barcoding to generate spatial arrays with a DNA density approximately ten times higher than previously reported methods while maintaining flexibility in resolution. We show that the high RNA capture efficiency of Decoder-seq improved the detection of lowly expressed olfactory receptor (Olfr) genes in mouse olfactory bulbs and contributed to the discovery of a unique layer enrichment pattern for two Olfr genes. The near-cellular resolution provided by Decoder-seq has enabled the construction of a spatial single-cell atlas of the mouse hippocampus, revealing dendrite-enriched mRNAs in neurons. When applying Decoder-seq to human renal cell carcinomas, we dissected the heterogeneous tumor microenvironment across different cancer subtypes and identified spatial gradient-expressed genes related to epithelial-mesenchymal transition with the potential to predict tumor prognosis and progression.

[Clinical characteristics and genetic counseling for a three-generation Chinese pedigree with recurrent fetal Kabuki syndrome due to variant of KDM6A gene]

OBJECTIVE

To explore the genetic basis for a pregnant woman with a history of adverse pregnancy outcomes.

METHODS

A woman with an adverse history of pregnancies including one fetal demise and two induced abortions due to fetal diaphragmatic hernia and complex cardiac anomalies was selected as the study subject. Muscle tissue from the induced abortus was subjected to whole exome sequencing, and candidate variant was verified by Sanger sequencing of the couple and other family members.

RESULTS

Genetic sequencing revealed that the fetus has harbored a frameshift variant of the KDM6A gene (NM_001291415.2), namely c.1228_1229del (p.Gln410GlufsTer2), which was inherited from the woman and her mother. The variant was unreported previously, and the woman was found to have short stature, sparse eyebrows in the outer third, peculiar facial features, but normal intelligence in addition with female congenital genital malformation, like incomplete vaginal septum, double cervix, double uterus, and unilateral ovary absence. mostly similar phenotypes observed in her mother.

CONCLUSION

The hemizygous c.1228_1229del variant of the KDM6A gene probably underlay the abnormalities in the fetus. All findings have enabled genetic counseling for this family featuring X-linked inheritance, and the woman had given birth to a healthy girl with appropriate prevention and intervention.

Luminosity determination using Z boson production at the CMS experiment

The measurement of Z boson production is presented as a method to determine the integrated luminosity of CMS data sets. The analysis uses proton-proton collision data, recorded by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC in 2017 at a center-of-mass energy of 13Te V . Events with Z bosons decaying into a pair of muons are selected. The total number of Z bosons produced in a fiducial volume is determined, together with the identification efficiencies and correlations from the same data set, in small intervals of 20pb - 1 of integrated luminosity, thus facilitating the efficiency and rate measurement as a function of time and instantaneous luminosity. Using the ratio of the efficiency-corrected numbers of Z bosons, the precisely measured integrated luminosity of one data set is used to determine the luminosity of another. For the first time, a full quantitative uncertainty analysis of the use of Z  bosons for the integrated luminosity measurement is performed. The uncertainty in the extrapolation between two data sets, recorded in 2017 at low and high instantaneous luminosity, is less than 0.5%. We show that the Z boson rate measurement constitutes a precise method, complementary to traditional methods, with the potential to improve the measurement of the integrated luminosity.

Measurement of the production cross section for a W boson in association with a charm quark in proton-proton collisions at s=13TeV

The strange quark content of the proton is probed through the measurement of the production cross section for a W boson and a charm (c) quark in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13Te V . The analysis uses a data sample corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 138fb - 1 collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. The W bosons are identified through their leptonic decays to an electron or a muon, and a neutrino. Charm jets are tagged using the presence of a muon or a secondary vertex inside the jet. The W + c production cross section and the cross section ratio R c ± = σ ( W + + c ¯ ) / σ ( W - + c ) are measured inclusively and differentially as functions of the transverse momentum and the pseudorapidity of the lepton originating from the W boson decay. The precision of the measurements is improved with respect to previous studies, reaching 1% in R c ± = 0.950 ± 0.005 (stat) ± 0.010 (syst) . The measurements are compared with theoretical predictions up to next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbative quantum chromodynamics.

Synthesis, Characterization, and Physicochemical Properties of New [Emim][BF3X] Complex Anion Ionic Liquids

A new series of complex anion ionic liquids (ILs) [Emim][BF3X] (X = CH3SO3, EtSO4, HSO4, Tosylate) were synthesized and characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance, elemental analysis, differential scanning calorimetry analysis, and thermogravimetry. The physicochemical properties of these ILs, such as density, viscosity, conductivity, and surface tension, were measured and correlated with thermodynamic and empirical equations in the temperature range of 293.15-358.15 K under ambient conditions, and the thermal expansion coefficient, standard molar entropy, lattice potential energy, viscosity activation energy, surface enthalpy, and surface entropy were further calculated from experimental values. According to the temperature-dependent viscosity and conductivity, [Emim][BF3X] ILs follow the Walden rule, and they are classified as "good (or super) ionic liquids".

Effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease: a prespecified secondary analysis from the empa-kidney trial

BACKGROUND

Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial.

METHODS

EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110.

FINDINGS

Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001).

INTERPRETATION

Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor.

Identification of genes related to growth and amino acid metabolism from the transcriptome profile of the liver of growing laying hens

The growing period is a critical period for the growth and development of hens and affects their production performance during the laying period. During the early stage of growing, bone and muscle growth is rapid, making it necessary to provide sufficient amino acids (AA) to support the growth and development of laying hens. In this experiment, RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq) was applied to compare the liver tissues from 6- to 12-wk-old growing laying hens to identify candidate genes related to growth and AA transport and metabolism. In the liver tissues, 596 differentially expressed genes (DEG) were identified, of which 424 genes were up-regulated and 172 were down-regulated. Through enrichment analysis and DEGs analysis, some DEGs and pathways related to AA transport and metabolism were identified. Additionally, there were significantly increased activities in the liver of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), and glutamate pyruvate transaminase (GPT). Meanwhile, the level of serum insulin-like growth factor binding protein-5 (IGFBP-5) significantly elevated, and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels significantly reduced at 12 wk compared to 6 wk. The AA contents in the breast muscle were not significantly altered, while the levels of the free AA in the serum underwent significant changes. This study discovered that the transport and metabolism of AAs in growing laying hens at different ages changed, which influenced the growth and development of growing laying hens. This contributes to future research on the mechanisms of growth and AA metabolism during the growing period of laying hens.

Preoperative diagnostic value of coronary CT angiography in acute Stanford type A aortic dissection involving the coronary arteries

AIM

To assess the diagnostic value of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) with coronary artery involvement and to evaluate whether CCTA could provide potentially useful information for selecting the surgical method.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

Patients with ATAAD treated from January 2019 to December 2020 were reviewed retrospectively. Involvement of the coronary arteries based on CCTA findings were grouped into three major types and five subtypes. Interobserver and intraobserver diagnostic agreement for five subtypes were determined. The patients were divided into the coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and non-CABG groups, and the proportions of the five subtypes between the two groups were compared.

RESULTS

A total of 95 patients were enrolled in this study. Interobserver and intraobserver diagnostic agreement were both substantial in the left and right coronary arteries. Overall, the proportions of the five subtypes of coronary artery involvement were significantly different between the two groups (p<0.001). The proportion of Type A was elevated in the non-CABG group compared with the CABG group (22.6% versus 71.9%); by contrast, the proportions of Type B1 (35.5% versus 14.1%), Type B2 (19.4% versus 10.9%), Type C1 (6.5% versus 0%), and Type C2 (16.1% versus 3.1%) were elevated in the CABG group.

CONCLUSION

CCTA is reliable in evaluating coronary artery involvement by ATAAD. The present retrospective study indicated that CABG may be considered if the intimal flap disrupts the coronary orifice and causes luminal stenosis >50%, particularly Type B, or if an intimal tear occurs in the coronary orifice (Type C), which deserve further validation through prospective studies.

CENPW knockdown inhibits progression of bladder cancer through inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis

Purpose: The objective of this study was to examine the expression and role of Centromere protein W (CENPW) in bladder cancer (BLCA), as well as its potential mechanistic impact on the progression of BLCA. Methods: In this study, we conducted a comparative analysis of the mRNA expression level of CENPW in BLCA tissues and adjacent normal tissues using data from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases. Additionally, we investigated the association between CENPW expression and patient prognosis. Furthermore, we performed in vitro and in vivo experiments to assess the impact of CENPW knockdown on various tumor biological phenotypes in BLCA. Finally, we conducted an analysis to elucidate the underlying mechanisms responsible for the observed phenotypic alterations in BLCA. Results: The expression of CENPW was found to be upregulated in BLCA, and its higher expression was associated with a poorer disease-specific survival (DSS). CENPW was found to have close associations with the cell cycle, mitosis, and DNA replication. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that the inhibition of CENPW led to a suppression of BLCA progression. Specifically, the knockdown of CENPW resulted in cell cycle arrest phase and induced apoptosis in BLCA by potentially inactivating the signal transducer and activator of transcription3 (STAT3) signaling pathway. Conclusion: CENPW has the potential to function as a molecular marker indicating an unfavorable prognosis in BLCA. Additionally, CENPW exhibits promise as a novel therapeutic target for BLCA.

Impact of primary kidney disease on the effects of empagliflozin in patients with chronic kidney disease: secondary analyses of the EMPA-KIDNEY trial

BACKGROUND

The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population.

METHODS

EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110.

FINDINGS

Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1).

INTERPRETATION

In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Effects of short-chain fatty acids on blood glucose and lipid levels in mouse models of diabetes mellitus: A systematic review and network meta-analysis

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), the main metabolites of gut microbiota, have been associated with lower blood glucose and lipid levels in diabetic mice. However, a comprehensive summary and comparison of the effects of different SCFA interventions on blood glucose and lipid levels in diabetic mice is currently unavailable. This study aims to compare and rank the effects of different types of SCFAs on blood glucose and lipid levels by collecting relevant animal research. A systematic search through PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science database was conducted to identify relevant studies from inception to March 17, 2023. Both pairwise meta-analysis and Bayesian network meta-analysis were used for statistical analyses. In total, 18 relevant studies involving 5 interventions were included after screening 3793 citations and 53 full-text articles. Notably, butyrate therapy (mean difference [MD] = -4.52, 95% confidence interval [-6.29, -2.75]), acetate therapy (MD = -3.12, 95% confidence interval [-5.79, -0.46]), and propionate therapy (MD = -2.96, 95% confidence interval [-5.66, -0.26]) significantly reduced the fasting blood glucose levels compared to the control group; butyrate therapy was probably the most effective intervention, with a surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) value of 85.5%. Additionally, acetate plus propionate therapy was probably the most effective intervention for reducing total cholesterol (SUCRA = 85.8%) or triglyceride levels (SUCRA = 88.1%). These findings underscore the potential therapeutic implications of SCFAs for addressing metabolic disorders, particularly in type 2 diabetes mellitus.

DERnet: a deep neural network for end-to-end reconstruction in magnetic particle imaging

Objective. Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) shows potential for contributing to biomedical research and clinical practice. However, MPI images are effectively affected by noise in the signal as its reconstruction is an ill-posed inverse problem. Thus, effective reconstruction method is required to reduce the impact of the noise while mapping signals to MPI images. Traditional methods rely on the hand-crafted data-consistency (DC) term and regularization term based on spatial priors to achieve noise-reducing and reconstruction. While these methods alleviate the ill-posedness and reduce noise effects, they may be difficult to fully capture spatial features.Approach. In this study, we propose a deep neural network for end-to-end reconstruction (DERnet) in MPI that emulates the DC term and regularization term using the feature mapping subnetwork and post-processing subnetwork, respectively, but in a data-driven manner. By doing so, DERnet can better capture signal and spatial features without relying on hand-crafted priors and strategies, thereby effectively reducing noise interference and achieving superior reconstruction quality.Main results. Our data-driven method outperforms the state-of-the-art algorithms with an improvement of 0.9-8.8 dB in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio under various noise levels. The result demonstrates the advantages of our approach in suppressing noise interference. Furthermore, DERnet can be employed for measured data reconstruction with improved fidelity and reduced noise. In conclusion, our proposed method offers performance benefits in reducing noise interference and enhancing reconstruction quality by effectively capturing signal and spatial features.Significance. DERnet is a promising candidate method to improve MPI reconstruction performance and facilitate its more in-depth biomedical application.

Health-related quality of life and associated factors in elderly individuals with dyslipidemia in rural Northern China

PURPOSE

The purpose of the study was to investigate health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and its associated factors among elderly individuals with dyslipidemia in rural Northern China.

METHODS

A cross-sectional study was conducted on 457 elderly individuals. The EQ-5D-5L questionnaire was used to assess HRQOL. Sociodemographic, anthropometric, lifestyle and health information was collected using a structured and standardized questionnaire. The Tobit regression model and multiple linear regression analysis were used to assess factors associated with HRQOL parameters including utility index and visual analogue score (EQ-VAS).

RESULTS

The mean age of the participating individuals was 68.04 ± 5.98 years. The median utility index and EQ-VAS scores were 0.942 (P25-P75: 0.876-1.000) and 80 (P25-P75: 70-90), respectively. Pain/discomfort was the most frequently reported complaint among the five health dimensions (50.5%). Illiterate and primary education levels, unemployed, widowed, smoking, secondhand smoke exposure, with hypertension or DM, chronic disease core knowledge scores < 8, and daily sedentary time ≥ 6 h were associated with lower HRQOL.

CONCLUSION

Pain/discomfort dimension was the most affected problems. Education, occupation, marital status, smoking, secondhand smoke exposure, chronic disease core knowledge, comorbidities, and daily sedentary time were significantly associated with HRQOL in the present study.

Magnetic Particle Imaging-Guided Hyperthermia for Precise Treatment of Cancer: Review, Challenges, and Prospects

Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is a novel quantitative imaging technique using the nonlinear magnetization behavior of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) to determine their local concentration. Magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH) is a promising non-invasive therapy using the heating effects of MNPs. MPI-MFH is expected to enable real-time MPI guidance, localized MFH, and non-invasive temperature monitoring, which shows great potential for precise treatment of cancer. In this review, we introduce the fundamentals of MPI and MFH and their applications in the treatment of cancer. Also, we discuss the challenges and prospects of MPI-MFH.

Progressive Pretraining Network for 3D System Matrix Calibration in Magnetic Particle Imaging

Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is an emerging technique for determining magnetic nanoparticle distributions in biological tissues. Although system-matrix (SM)-based image reconstruction offers higher image quality than the X-space-based approach, the SM calibration measurement is time-consuming. Additionally, the SM should be recalibrated if the tracer's characteristics or the magnetic field environment change, and repeated SM measurement further increase the required labor and time. Therefore, fast SM calibration is essential for MPI. Existing calibration methods commonly treat each row of the SM as independent of the others, but the rows are inherently related through the coil channel and frequency index. As these two elements can be regarded as additional multimodal information, we leverage the transformer architecture with a self-attention mechanism to encode them. Although the transformer has shown superiority in multimodal fusion learning across several fields, its high complexity may lead to overfitting when labeled data are scarce. Compared with labeled SM (i.e., full size), low-resolution SM data can be easily obtained, and fully using such data may alleviate overfitting. Accordingly, we propose a pseudo-label-based progressive pretraining strategy to leverage unlabeled data. Our method outperforms existing calibration methods on a public real-world OpenMPI dataset and simulation dataset. Moreover, our method improves the resolution of two in-house MPI scanners without requiring full-size SM measurements. Ablation studies confirm the contributions of modeling SM inter-row relations and the proposed pretraining strategy.

Effect of moxa smoke on sperm parameters and oxidative stress in rats with asthenozoospermia

Asthenozoospermia is a leading cause of male infertility, characterized by reduced sperm motility. In this study, we determined sperm motility and the activities of antioxidant enzymes and oxidation products in the testis of rats with ornidazole (ORN)-induced asthenozoospermia and further examined and compared the differential effects of moxa smoke (MS) and cigarette smoke (CS) on sperm motility and oxidative stress (OS) of asthenozoospermic rats. The smoke intervention was initiated 11 days after intragastric administration of ORN, followed by the examination of testis index, sperm parameters, OS-related gene levels, and testicular histopathology. Sperm motility and antioxidant enzyme activities, as well as oxidation products significantly decreased in ORN-induced rats compared with MS-treated rats (p < .05-.001). MS treatment restored the reduced sperm motility and activities of glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, and catalase, but increased the malondialdehyde and nitric oxide synthetase levels in ORN-induced rats (p < .05-.001). Also, the histopathological changes in the testis of ORN-induced rats were improved by MS treatment. The study highlighted that MS was an effective factor in moxibustion therapy, which notably improved the sperm motility of asthenozoospermic rats by inhibiting OS in the reproductive system.

Synergistic Role of Water and Oxygen Leads to Degradation in Formamidinium-Based Halide Perovskites

Mixed-cation metal halide perovskites have shown remarkable progress in photovoltaic applications with high power conversion efficiencies. However, to achieve large-scale deployment of this technology, efficiencies must be complemented by long-term durability. The latter is limited by external factors, such as exposure to humidity and air, which lead to the rapid degradation of the perovskite materials and devices. In this work, we study the mechanisms causing Cs and formamidinium (FA)-based halide perovskite phase transformations and stabilization during moisture and air exposure. We use in situ X-ray scattering, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and first-principles calculations to study these chemical interactions and their effects on structure. We unravel a surface reaction pathway involving the dissolution of FAI by water and iodide oxidation by oxygen, driving the Cs/FA ratio into thermodynamically unstable regions, leading to undesirable phase transformations. This work demonstrates the interplay of bulk phase transformations with surface chemical reactions, providing a detailed understanding of the degradation mechanism and strategies for designing durable and efficient perovskite materials.

Biomarkers, signaling pathways, and programmed cell death in acute lung injury and its treatment with Traditional Chinese Medicine: a narrative review

Acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are common life-threatening, high-mortality lung diseases associated with acute and severe inflammation of the lungs. However, research on diagnostic markers and signaling pathways associated with ALI/ARDS is lacking, and no specific drug therapy is available for ALI/ARDS. Therefore, in this study, biomarkers and signaling pathways associated with ALI/ARDS were summarized to provide a reference for future clinical and research work. A review of Traditional Chinese Medicine for the treatment or prevention of ALI/ARDS is also presented to provide a reference for further development of Traditional Chinese Medicine. In summary, this review will help raise awareness of ALI/ARDS and provide insight into the future exploitation of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Correlation between inflammatory biomarkers, cognitive function and glycemic and lipid profiles in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A systematic review and meta-analysis

This study aimed to quantitatively estimate the correlation between systemic inflammation with cognitive function, as well as glycemic and lipid profiles in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, SCOPUS, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, and CBM databases were searched from its inception until June 2023 (PROSPERO registration: CRD42022356889). We analyzed data extracted from observational studies to quantify the correlations (r) as the pooled effect size and further performed subgroup analyses and sensitivity analyses. A total of 32 studies involving 7,483 patients with T2DM were included. The findings revealed a significant moderate negative correlation between interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels with Montreal Cognitive Assessment scores. TNF-α levels also had moderate negative correlation with Mini-Mental State Examination scores. For glycemic and lipid profiles, there was a significant moderate positive correlation between CRP and TNF-α levels and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and TNF-α levels were also found to be lowly positively correlated with fasting blood glucose (FBG). CRP levels were found to have a low positive correlation with total cholesterol (TC), and IL-6 levels were found to be lowly positively correlated with triglycerides. The results indicate that elevated levels of IL-6, CRP, and TNF-α are significantly associated with cognitive impairment in patients with T2DM and may serve as inflammatory markers for T2DM with mild cognitive impairment. The CRP and TNF-α levels were more strongly correlated with HbA1c than with FBG and TC. Further research is needed to determine the clinical value of these inflammatory biomarkers and to investigate potential causal mechanisms underlying this association.

Measurement of the top quark mass using a profile likelihood approach with the lepton + jets final states in proton-proton collisions at s=13TeV

The mass of the top quark is measured in 36.3fb - 1 of LHC proton-proton collision data collected with the CMS detector at s = 13 Te V . The measurement uses a sample of top quark pair candidate events containing one isolated electron or muon and at least four jets in the final state. For each event, the mass is reconstructed from a kinematic fit of the decay products to a top quark pair hypothesis. A profile likelihood method is applied using up to four observables per event to extract the top quark mass. The top quark mass is measured to be 171.77 ± 0.37 Ge V . This approach significantly improves the precision over previous measurements.

A search for decays of the Higgs boson to invisible particles in events with a top-antitop quark pair or a vector boson in proton-proton collisions at s=13TeV

A search for decays to invisible particles of Higgs bosons produced in association with a top-antitop quark pair or a vector boson, which both decay to a fully hadronic final state, has been performed using proton-proton collision data collected at s = 13 Te V by the CMS experiment at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138fb - 1 . The 95% confidence level upper limit set on the branching fraction of the 125Ge V Higgs boson to invisible particles, B ( H → inv ) , is 0.54 (0.39 expected), assuming standard model production cross sections. The results of this analysis are combined with previous B ( H → inv ) searches carried out at s = 7 , 8, and 13Te V in complementary production modes. The combined upper limit at 95% confidence level on B ( H → inv ) is 0.15 (0.08 expected).
