Abstract
PURPOSE Fibrosis is the only histological feature reflecting the severity and prognosis of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). We aim to explore novel genes associated with fibrosis progression in NASH. METHODS Two human RNA-seq datasets were downloaded from the public database. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to identify their co-expressed modules and further bioinformatics analysis was performed to identify hub genes within the modules. Finally, based on two single-cell RNA-seq datasets from mice and one microarray dataset from human, we further observed the expression of hub genes in different cell clusters and liver tissues. RESULTS 7 hub genes (SPP1, PROM1, SOX9, EPCAM, THY1, CD34 and MCAM) associated with fibrosis progression were identified. Single-cell RNA-seq analysis revealed that those hub genes were expressed by different cell clusters such as cholangiocytes, natural killer (NK) cells, and hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). We also found that SPP1 and CD34 serve as markers of different HSCs clusters, which are associated with inflammatory response and fibrogenesis, respectively. Further study suggested that SPP1, SOX9, MCAM and THY1 might be related to NASH-associated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed that the high expression of these genes could well predict the occurrence of HCC. At the same time, there were significant differences in metabolism-related pathway changes between different HCC subtypes, and SOX9 may be involved in these changes. CONCLUSIONS The present study identified novel genes associated with NASH fibrosis and explored their effects on fibrosis from a single-cell perspective that might provide new ideas for the early diagnosis, monitoring, evaluation, and prediction of fibrosis progression in NASH.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
To investigate the effects of different partial deletions in AZFc locus of Y-chromosome on the clinical outcome of severe oligospermia patients by intracytoplasmic single sperm injection (ICSI)
Summary answer
B2/b3 and b2/b4 deletion in the AZFc locus of Y chromosome have no significant effect on pregnancy outcome in patients with severe oligospermia undergoing ICSI.
What is known already
Thanks to the development of high-throughput sequencing for Y chromosome microdeletion, AZFc deletions can be accurately divided into b2/b4, gr/gr, b2/b3 and b1/b3 types. However, there is no relevant research on the effect of different partial deletion types of AZFc on the outcome of assisted reproduction.
Study design, size, duration
According to whether carrying AZFc microdeletions or not, the patients were divided into AZFc-deletion group and control group. And AZFc-deletion group was divided into 3 subgroups by the types of partial deletion.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
A retrospective analysis was conducted on the patients undergoing high-throughput sequencing for Y chromosome microdeletion screening and ICSI treatment in our hospital from December 2017 to February 2019.
Main results and the role of chance
The AZFc b2/b3 deletion group had no significant difference in D3 availability, high-quality embryo rate, blastocyst formation rate, implantation rate, clinical pregnancy rate and live birth rate, and the control group (P > 0.05). The rate of high-quality embryos in patients with the b2/b4 deletion was lower than that of the control group (23.2% vs. 34.3%, P = 0.004), but there was no statistical difference in other indicators.
Limitations, reasons for caution
In this study, we included only patients who underwent ICSI with ejaculate sperm for analysis, but not patients who had successfully obtained sperm through surgery.
Wider implications of the findings
This study helps clinicians provide more detailed and comprehensive infertility risk answers during consultations with such patients to reduce the mental stress of patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To express and purify the antigenic peptide of adeno-associated virus (AAV) capsid conserved regions in prokaryotic cells and prepare its rabbit polyclonal antibody. METHODS The DNA sequence encoding the conserved regions of AAV capsid protein was synthesized and cloned into the vector pET30a to obtain the plasmid pET30a-AAV-CR for prokaryotic expression and purification of the conserved peptides. Coomassie blue staining and Western blotting were used to identify the AAV conserved peptides. Japanese big ear white rabbits were immunized with AAV conserved region protein to prepare polyclonal antibody, with the rabbits injected with PBS as the control group. The antibody titer was determined with ELISA, and the performance of the antibody for recognizing capsid protein sequences of AAV1-AAV10 was assessed with Western blotting and immunofluorescence assay. RESULTS The plasmid pET30a-AAV-CR was successfully constructed, and a recombinant protein with a relative molecular mass of 17000 was obtained. The purified protein induced the production of antibodies against the conserved regions of AAV capsid in rabbits, and the titer of the purified antibodies reached 1:320 000. The antibodies were capable of recognizing a wide range of capsid protein sequences of AAV1-AAV10. CONCLUSION We successfully obtained the polyclonal antibodies against AAV capsid conserved region protein from rabbits, which facilitate future studies of AAV vector development and the biological functions of AAV.

Abstract
BackgroundConnective tissue disease (CTD) associated pulmonary hypertension (PH) is classified as a subgroup of WHO group 1 PH, also called pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). However, not all CTD-PH fit the hemodynamic definition of PAH. This study investigates the diversity of hemodynamical types of CTD-PH, their different clinical characteristics and outcomes.ObjectivesThis study investigates the diversity of hemodynamical types of CTD-PH, their different clinical characteristics and outcomes.MethodsWe performed a retrospective cohort study. CTD-PH patients underwent right heart catheterization (RHC) were enrolled and divided into WHO group1 PH, WHO group 2 PH and high output PH (PVR<3WU and PAWP<15mmHg) according to hemodynamic features. Patients with obvious lung diseases, left heart disease and pulmonary embolism were excluded. Baseline characteristics, inflammatory markers, autoantibodies, cardiac function status, echocardiogram parameters, hemodynamics and survival rates were compared.Results207 CTD-PH patients were included, including 139 in WHO group 1 PH, 36 in WHO group 2 PH and 32 in high output PH. Incidence of anti-ribonucleoprotein antibody was lower in WHO Group 2 PH. High output PH is less severe, presenting lower NT-proBNP level, better WHO functional class, lower mPAP and PVR, higher cardiac output, and less cardiac remodeling. Among patients with elevated PAWP, combine pre& post-capillary PH had higher mPAP and larger right ventricle diameter. Association of mild to moderate interstitial lung disease didn’t show significant difference in disease characteristics. Short-term survival was significantly worse in WHO group 2 PH, yet 5-year survival rates didn’t differ between groups.ConclusionPre-capillary PH is not the only hemodynamic type of CTD-PH. Different types of CTD-PH present different clinical phenotypes and outcome. Carefully phenotyping PH in CTD-PH patients is important.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Background
Meditation can induce changes in autonomic balance, which can benefit cardiovascular health. The present meta-analysis evaluated changes in heart rate variability (HRV) in meditators.
Methods
PubMed and Embase were searched for primary prospective studies using the search terms ‘heart rate variability’ and ‘meditation’ until January 18th, 2019. The statistical significance of the difference between subgroups is evaluated by the standardized mean difference (SMD), 95% confidence interval (CI), and P-value. I2 value was used to assess the statistical heterogeneity between the included studies.
Results
Twenty-one studies involving 538 meditators (experienced= 209, beginners= 329) and 334 controls (mean age= 40.61, 35% male) were included. Regarding time-domain indices, no statistically significant differences were observed when assessing HRV between i) meditators versus controls (SMD= -0.17; 95% CI: [-0.50, 0.17]; p= 0.30; I2= 0%), ii) pre- versus post-meditation (SMD= -0.41; 95% CI: [-1.10, 0.28]; p= 0.25; I2= 80%) or iii) at baseline versus during meditation (SMD= -0.40; 95% CI: [-0.94, 0.14]; p= 0.14; I2= 72%). Pertaining to frequency-domain indices, analysis of low frequency (LF), normalized low frequency (LFnu) and high frequency (HF) between i) meditators versus controls, ii) at baseline versus post-meditation and iii) at baseline versus during meditation yet again did not show any variations. Seven studies assessed normalized high frequency (HFnu) at baseline versus during meditation collectively demonstrated a significantly higher HFnu during meditation in beginners with notable heterogeneity (SMD= 1.29; 95% CI: [0.09, 2.49]; p= 0.04; I2= 95). Moreover, LF/HF was evaluated by seven studies at baseline versus during meditation. Both meta-analysis (SMD= 0.76; 95% CI: [-0.17, 1.69]; p= 0.11; I2= 94%) as well as subset analysis of experienced meditators (SMD= -0.46; 95% CI: [-0.88, -0.03]; p= 0.03; I2= 0%) revealed a significantly lower LF/HF at baseline.
Conclusions
Short-term changes in HRV indices were observed during meditation, but there is limited evidence for significant long-term effects.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to understand the drinking water quality state in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region from 2014 to 2018 and to derive information that will provide a basis for improving the drinking water quality in the region. Monitoring data for drinking water from the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region for 2014 to 2018 were analyzed and the results were compared with GB 5749-2006, the Standard Test Method for Drinking Water, and GB 5749-2006, the Drinking Water Quality Standards. Data for a total of 30,613 water samples were assessed. Of the data for the microbiological index, sensory trait and general chemical index, and toxicological index, 89, 80, and 69% were qualified, respectively. For the toxicological index, the fluoride and nitrate nitrogen data were the least compliant. The water quality in all the cities was generally very suitable for drinking. However, there were marked differences in the qualified rates of drinking water in different areas and the qualified rates of the data for the three indexes were lower in rural areas than in urban areas. Given the varied issues with the drinking water quality, the relevant departments of League cities should implement appropriate and effective treatment measures to improve the drinking water quality and ensure it is safe for residents.

Abstract
The integrity of intestinal barrier determines intestinal homeostasis, which could be affected by various factors, like physical, chemical, and biological stimuli. Therefore, it is of considerable interest and importance to maintain intestinal barrier function. Fortunately, many plant polyphenols, including resveratrol, could affect the health of intestinal barrier. Resveratrol has many biological functions, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammation, anti-tumor, and anti-cardiovascular diseases. Accumulating studies have shown that resveratrol affects intestinal tight junction, microbial composition, and inflammation. In this review, we summarize the effects of resveratrol on intestinal barriers as well as the potential mechanisms (e.g., inhibiting the growth of pathogenic bacteria and fungi, regulating the expression of tight junction proteins, and increasing anti-inflammatory T cells while reducing pro-inflammatory T cells), and highlight the applications of resveratrol in ameliorating various intestinal diseases.

Abstract
Background Immunotransmitters (e.g., neurotransmitters and neuromodulators) could orchestrate diverse immune responses; however, the elaborated mechanism by which melatonergic activation governs inflammation remains less defined. Methods Primary macrophages, various cell lines, and Pasteurella multocida (PmCQ2)‐infected mice were respectively used to illustrate the influence of melatonergic signalling on inflammation in vitro and in vivo. A series of methods (e.g., RNA‐seq, metabolomics, and genetic manipulation) were conducted to reveal the mechanism whereby melatonergic signalling reduces macrophage inflammation. Results Here, we demonstrate that melatonergic activation substantially lessens interleukin (IL)‐1β‐dependent inflammation. Treatment of macrophages with melatonin rewires metabolic program, as well as remodels signalling pathways which depends on interferon regulatory factor (IRF) 7. Mechanistically, melatonin acts via membrane receptor (MT) 1 to increase heat shock factor (Hsf) 1 expression through lowering the inactive glycogen synthase kinase (GSK3) β, thereby transcriptionally inhibiting interferon (IFN)‐γ receptor (IFNGR) 2 and ultimately causing defective canonical signalling events [Janus kinase (JAK) 1/2‐signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 1‐IRF7] and lower IL‐1β production in macrophages. Moreover, we find that melatonin amplifies host protective responses to PmCQ2 infection‐induced pneumonia. Conclusions Our conceptual framework provides potential therapeutic targets to prevent and/or treat inflammatory diseases associating with excessive IL‐1β production.

Background
Programmed death-1 (PD-1) and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors are major classes of immune checkpoint inhibitors that are increasingly used for cancer treatment. However, they are associated with adverse cardiovascular events.
Purpose
To evaluate the cardiotoxicity of PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibitors, the present study aims to examine the incidence of new-onset cardiac complications in patients receiving PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitors.
Methods
Patients receiving PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitors since their launch up to December 31st, 2019 without pre-existing cardiac complications were included. Patient data were obtained using a territory-wide electronic health record database. The primary outcome was a composite of incident heart failure (HF), acute myocardial infarction (AMI), atrial fibrillation (AF) or atrial flutter followed up to August 31st, 2020. Propensity score matching between PD-L1 and PD-1 inhibitor use with a 1:1 ratio for patient demographics and comorbidities was performed.
Results
A total of 1925 patients were included. Over a median follow-up of 136 days (interquartile range [IQR]: 42-279), 318 (16.51%) patients met the primary outcome after PD-1/PD-L1 treatment: 242 (incidence rate [IR]: 12.57%) with HF, 38 (IR: 1.97%) with AMI, 53 (IR: 2.75%) with AF, 6 (IR: 0.31%) with atrial flutter. Compared with PD-1 inhibitor treatment, PD-L1 inhibitor treatment was significantly associated with a lower risk of composite outcome after matching (HR: 0.78, 95% CI: [0.62-0.99], P value = 0.0417). Patients who developed cardiovascular complications had shorter average readmission intervals and more hospitalization episodes after treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors both before and after matching (P value < 0.0001).
Conclusions
Compared with PD-1 inhibitor users, PD-L1 inhibitor users had a significantly lower risk of new-onset composite cardiovascular complications. Abstract Figure. Kaplan-Meier survival curve

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the relationship between HIV-infected men who have sex with men and their sexual partners in Zhejiang province. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted to recruit newly confirmed HIV/AIDS among MSM from 2015 to 2017, including sexual partner identification and molecular epidemiological study. Plasma was collected to extract RNA, and the pol gene of HIV-1 was amplified by RT-PCR/nested PCR. Phylogenetic tree and molecular transmission cluster were analyzed to identify the transmission relationship between sexual partners. Results: A total of 937 HIV/AIDS among MSM were recruited to promote HIV testing for their sexual partners, and 173 positive sexual partners were identified. 50.8% (61/120) of the gene sequences were clustered among the positive sex partners. Seven pairs of clustered sex partners combined with the results of recent infection preliminarily determined the transmission direction. In the clusters, there were statistical differences between the partners who were diagnosed in the same year (OR=12.190, 95%CI: 1.563-95.054) or with current residence in the different districts (OR=17.054, 95%CI: 1.742-166.982). Conclusions: Combined with a molecular transmission network, HIV test for the sexual partners of HIV/AIDS among MSM can improve the accurate tracking of cases and preliminarily determine the direction of transmission, according to the results of recent infection. It is suggested that after HIV is confirmed for HIV/AIDS among MSM, HIV tests should be carried out as soon as possible for their sexual partners, including a cross-regional sexual partner tracking test, which is helpful to improve the tracing procedure.

Abstract
Increasing evidence support that cellular amino acid metabolism shapes the fate of immune cells; however, whether aspartate metabolism dictates macrophage function is still enigmatic. Here, we found that the metabolites in aspartate metabolism are depleted in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) plus interferon gamma (IFN-γ)-stimulated macrophages. Aspartate promotes interleukin-1β (IL-1β) secretion in M1 macrophages. Mechanistically, aspartate boosts the activation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and inflammasome and increases the levels of metabolites in aspartate metabolism, such as asparagine. Interestingly, asparagine also accelerates the activation of cellular signaling pathways and promotes the production of inflammatory cytokines from macrophages. Moreover, aspartate supplementation augments the macrophage-mediated inflammatory responses in mice and piglets. These results uncover a previously uncharacterized role for aspartate metabolism in directing M1 macrophage polarization.

Abstract
Many students with autism have difficulties engaging with their classroom environments and forming friendships, which are mostly affected by deficits in social, communication, and motor skills. The Special Education Elementary Longitudinal Study (SEELS, 2000) data set was used, focusing on elementary age students with autism, to explore the longitudinal relationships between social, communication, and motor skills and the mediating role of motor skills in between communication and social skills by using structural equational modeling analyses. Results show that (a) motor skills mediate the relationship between communication and social skills in elementary school, (b) there are significant longitudinal relationships among these skills in elementary school. Increased motor skills may improve social skills for students with autism in elementary school.

Abstract
We evaluated the association between macrophage polarization and the development of pleural thickening in patients with tuberculous pleurisy. Patients with tuberculous pleurisy admitted to our hospital between October 2018 and March 2019 were prospectively recruited. Pleural fluid samples were obtained before treatment for detection of adenosine deaminase (ADA) and macrophage phenotype (M1: CD14+ CD86+; M2: CD14+ CD163+). Peripheral blood samples were subjected to interferon gamma release assay (IGRA). All subjects were administered standard anti-tuberculosis regimen (2HREZ/4HR); high-resolution CT was performed to determine pleural thickening (thickness>2mm) after completion of treatment. Pleural effusion in patients with thickened pleura had significantly more M1 but fewer M2 macrophages, and higher ADA level, as compared to those with normal pleura (P<0.05). No significant between-group difference was observed with respect to IGRA. In receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, the optimal cut-off level of M1/M2 ratio for predicting pleural thickening was 1.149 (area under the curve: 0.842; sensitivity: 88.6%; specificity: 69.2%; positive predictive value: 86.3%; negative predictive value: 81.7%). M1/M2 ratio in the pleural fluid is a promising marker for predicting the development of pleural thickening in patients with tuberculous pleurisy. Macrophage-mediated immune response may play an important role in the pathogenesis of tuberculous pleurisy.

Abstract
Post-weaning diarrhea of piglets is associated with gut microbiota dysbiosis and intestinal pathogen infection. Recent studies have shown that Lactococcus lactis (L.lactis) could help suppress pathogen infection. This study aimed to investigate the effects of L.lactis on various factors related to growth and immunity in weaning piglets. The results showed that L.lactis improved the growth performance, regulated the amino acid profile (for example, increasing serum tryptophan and ileal mucosal cystine) and the intestinal GABAergic system (including inhibiting ileal gene expression of SLC6A13, GABAAρ1, π, θ, and γ1, and promoting ileal GABAAα5 expression). L.lactis also modulated intestinal immunity by promoting jejunal interleukin 17, 18, 22, ileal toll-like receptor 2, 5, 6, and myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 gene expression while inhibiting jejunal interferon-γ and ileal interleukin 22 expressions. L.lactis highly affected the intestinal microbiota by improving the beta diversity of gut microbiota and the relative abundance of Halomonas and Shewanella. In conclusion, L.lactis improved the growth performance and regulated amino acid profiles, intestinal immunity and microbiota in weaning piglets.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Genetic risk of the non-classical splice site variant in ANOS1 gene
Summary answer
A non-classical ANOS1 splice site variant, c.1062 + 4T>C, causes Kallmann syndrome.
What is known already
Genetic abnormalities play a key role in the development of Kallmann syndrome. Although an overwhelming majority of missense and nonsense mutations occur in the exons of a gene, intron mutations can also be pathogenic.
Study design, size, duration
The research object is a family. Eight patients of the family were recruited in this study, three of them were diagnosed with Kallmann syndrome.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood and whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed to identify the genetic abnormalities. PCR was performed to verify the WES results. The functional splicing reporter mini gene assay was performed to assess the impact of sequence variants on splicing.
Main results and the role of chance
The proband and other two patients exhibited the typical clinical features of KS. A non-classical splice site variant, c.1062 + 4T>C in ANOS1 gene was identified, whereas the other unaffected family members did not have this mutation. This mutation caused the disappearance of the splicing site of intron 7 and the splicing position became the 156th base of exon 7, which caused a frame-shift mutation, leading to a premature termination of translation.
Limitations, reasons for caution
Since the ANOS1 gene is almost not expressed in the blood, in order to uncover the effect of this splice site variant of ANOS1, we carried out a functional splicing reporter mini gene assay in the mini gene vector pEGFP-N1.
Wider implications of the findings: This study shows that mutations in non-classical splicing regions are also pathogenic. Therefore, it is recommended that the detection and analysis of this gene should pay attention to the non-classical splice site variant.

Abstract
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) infection is the most common cause of diarrhea in piglets, and ETEC could increase intestinal gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-producing bacteria to affect intestinal immunity. However, the effect of GABA on ETEC-infected piglets is still unclear. This study aims at investigating the impact of dietary GABA supplementation on the growth performance, diarrhea, intestinal morphology, serum amino acid profile, intestinal immunity, and microbiota in the ETEC-infected piglet model. Eighteen piglets were randomly divided into two groups, in which the piglets were fed with a basal diet with 20 mg kg-1 GABA supplementation or not. The experiment lasted for three weeks, and the piglets were challenged with ETEC K88 on the fifteenth day. The results showed that dietary GABA reduced the feed conversion ratio, promoted the kidney organ index but did not affect the diarrheal score and small intestinal morphology in ETEC-challenged piglets. Ileal mucosal amino acids (such as carnosine and anserine) and serum amino acids (including threonine and GABA) were increased upon GABA supplementation. GABA enhanced ileal gene expression of TNF-α, IFN-γ, pIgR, and MUC2, while inhibited the ileal expression of IL-18 in ETEC-challenged piglets. GABA supplementation also highly regulated the intestinal microbiota by promoting community richness and diversity and reducing the abundance of the dominant microbial population of the ileal microbiota. Collectively, GABA improves growth performance, regulates the serum amino acid profile, intestinal immunity, and gut microbiota in ETEC-challenged piglets. This study is a fine attempt to reveal the function of GABA in ETEC-infected piglets. It would contribute to the understanding of the roles of exogenous nutrition on the host response to ETEC infection.

Abstract
Background:Primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS) is a relatively common autoimmune disease characterized by oral and ocular dryness. An increasing number of studies have revealed that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), miRNA, mRNA and circular RNA (circRNA) contributes to the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases.Objectives:To explore lncRNA, miRNA, mRNA and circRNA expression profiles in labial salivary glands (LSGs) in pSS patients and their biological functions in the regulation of pSS.Methods:The expression of 75,550 lncRNAs, 2,318 miRNA, 20,292 mRNAs and 6,877 circRNAs were determined in the LSG of six pSS patients and six healthy controls using microarray experiments. Validation was performed in pSS patients and controls using real-time PCR. LncRNA-mRNA co-expression and gene-pathway networks were constructed using bioinformatics software.Results:A total of 599 lncRNAs (upregulated: 279, downregulated: 320), 78 miRNAs (upregulated: 26, downregulated: 52), 615 mRNAs (upregulated: 590, downregulated: 25) and 160 mRNAs (upregulated: 110, downregulated: 50) were differentially expressed in the LSGs of pSS patients. Five of these lncRNAs were validated using real-time PCR. lncRNA HCP5, lncRNA SNHG5, lncRNA IFI44L, lncRNA CMPK2 were significantly upregulated and lncRNA TTYH1 were downregulated in pSS. GO and KEGG biological pathway analysis were performed to predict the functions of differentially expressed lncRNAs and co-expressed potential targeting genes. Subsequently, a ceRNA (lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA) network including 2320 ceRNA pairs was constructed based on predicted miRNAs shared by lncRNAs and mRNAs.Conclusion:The expression profile provided a systematic perspective on the potential functions of lncRNAs miRNAs, mRNAs and circRNAs in the pathogenesis of pSS. Therefore, this study will aid in the development of new diagnostic biomarkers and drug therapies.References:[1]Le Dantec C, Varin MM, Brooks WH, Pers JO, Youinou P, Renaudineau Y.

Abstract
Diseases caused by pathogenic bacteria in animals (e.g., bacterial pneumonia, meningitis and sepsis) and plants (e.g., bacterial wilt, angular spot and canker) lead to high prevalence and mortality, and decomposition of plant leaves, respectively. Melatonin, an endogenous molecule, is highly pleiotropic, and accumulating evidence supports the notion that melatonin's actions in bacterial infection deserve particular attention. Here, we summarize the antibacterial effects of melatonin in vitro, in animals as well as plants, and discuss the potential mechanisms. Melatonin exerts antibacterial activities not only on classic gram-negative and -positive bacteria, but also on members of other bacterial groups, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Protective actions against bacterial infections can occur at different levels. Direct actions of melatonin may occur only at very high concentrations, which is at the borderline of practical applicability. However, various indirect functions comprise activation of hosts' defense mechanisms or, in sepsis, attenuation of bacterially induced inflammation. In plants, its antibacterial functions involve the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway; in animals, protection by melatonin against bacterially induced damage is associated with inhibition or activation of various signaling pathways, including key regulators such as NF-κB, STAT-1, Nrf2, NLRP3 inflammasome, MAPK and TLR-2/4. Moreover, melatonin can reduce formation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS, RNS), promote detoxification and protect mitochondrial damage. Altogether, we propose that melatonin could be an effective approach against various pathogenic bacterial infections.

Abstract
AIMS To reveal the consistency and discrepancy in the gut microbial structure and function in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients from different regions. METHODS AND RESULTS Gut microbes, antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and virulence factors genes (VFGs) were analysed using metagenome data from three cohorts. The abundance of Escherichia coli extensively increased in IBD patients, whereas Subdoligranulum unclassified decreased dramatically in IBD patients from three countries. Escherichia coli showed a positive correlation with multiple ARGs and VFGs in cohorts from China and the United States, including multidrug-related resistance genes and Capsule and LOS-related virulence factors genes. Escherichia coli biofilm synthesis pathways significantly enriched in IBD patients from three different regions. Notably, Subdoligranulum unclassified and Eubacterium hallii were negatively related to ARGs and VFGs. CONCLUSIONS Consistent changes of microbiome structure and function were observed in IBD patients from three different regions. As pathogenic bacteria, E. coli may accelerate IBD progression through encapsulation in biofilms by upregulating antibiotic resistance in Crohn's disease patients. Subdoligranulum unclassified and E. hallii may be beneficial for IBD patients and could serve as potential probiotics for IBD treatment. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This work dispels worries about the regional differences in gut microbial changes in IBD patients and provides useful guidance for more rational microbiome-based therapies.

Abstract
Iron fine-tunes innate immune responses, including macrophage inflammation. In this review, we summarize the current understanding about the iron in dictating macrophage polarization. Mechanistically, iron orchestrates macrophage polarization through several aspects, including cellular signaling, cellular metabolism, and epigenetic regulation. Therefore, iron modulates the development and progression of multiple macrophage-associated diseases, such as cancer, atherosclerosis, and liver diseases. Collectively, this review highlights the crucial role of iron for macrophage polarization, and indicates the potential application of iron supplementation as an adjuvant therapy in different inflammatory disorders relative to the balance of macrophage polarization.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanisms of Ziyin recipe for treatment of ovulatory infertility based on network pharmacology analysis and evaluate the clinical efficacy of this recipe. OBJECTIVE TCMSP, PubChem, Genecards, String, Swiss Target Prediction, and Uniprot databases were searched to identify all the action targets of Ziyin recipe and ovulatory infertility to construct the PPI network. Gene ontology (GO) and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses were performed and the "TCM-active ingredient-target-pathway" network was constructed using Cytoscape 3.6.0. We also designed a controlled clinical trial to verify the clinical effectiveness of Ziyin recipe. The patients were randomized into 2 groups to receive treatment with Western medicine including CC and HMG (control group) and additional treatment with Ziyin recipe, and the dosage of GN, follicular development days, E2 level of a single dominant follicle on trigger day, ovulation rate, the rate of LUFS, and clinical pregnancy rate were compared between the two groups. OBJECTIVE We identified 22 active ingredients and 354 targets of action in Ziyin recipe, 791 targets of ovulatory infertility, and 96 common targets of action shared by Ziyin recipe and ovulatory infertility. According to Degree, the key targets included SRC, MAPK1, HSP90aa1, MAPK3, PTPN11, ESR1, Akt1, EGFR, NR3C1 and KNG1. Enrichment analysis of GO biological process showed that Ziyin recipe mainly focused on steroid hormonemediated signaling pathway, oxidation, reduction, and apoptosis. The most significantly enriched signaling pathways included PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, RAP1 signaling pathway, HIF-1 signaling pathway, estrogen signaling pathway, ovarian steroid production, and steroid hormone biosynthesis. The results of the clinical trial showed that Ziyin recipe significantly reduced the dose of GN, accelerated follicle development, increased E2 level of single dominant follicle on the trigger day, and increased the cycle ovulation rate and pregnancy rate. OBJECTIVE The therapeutic effects of Ziyin recipe are probably mediated through different pathways to promote follicle development, thus improving ovulation rate and clinical pregnancy rate of infertile patients with ovulatory disorders.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence shows that nervous system governs host immune responses; however, how γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic system shapes the function of innate immune cells is poorly defined. Here, we demonstrate that GABA transporter (GAT2) modulates the macrophage function. GAT2 deficiency lowers the production of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in proinflammatory macrophages. Mechanistically, GAT2 deficiency boosts the betaine/S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)/hypoxanthine metabolic pathway to inhibit transcription factor KID3 expression through the increased DNA methylation in its promoter region. KID3 regulates oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) via targeting the expression of OXPHOS-related genes and is also critical for NLRP3-ASC-caspase-1 complex formation. Likewise, GAT2 deficiency attenuates macrophage-mediated inflammatory responses in vivo, including lipopolysaccharide-induced sepsis, infection-induced pneumonia, and high-fat diet-induced obesity. Together, we propose that targeting GABAergic system (e.g., GABA transporter) could provide previously unidentified therapeutic opportunities for the macrophage-associated diseases.

Abstract
The onset of shear thinning and the transition from Newtonian to non-Newtonian behavior in the viscous flow of select chalcogenide and oxide network glass-forming liquids in the deeply supercooled regime and its temperature dependence are studied using parallel plate rheometry. In all cases, the onset occurs at a shear rate γ̇c that is several orders of magnitude lower than the shear relaxation rate τ0 -1 and the former increases with increasing temperature. These results are in good qualitative agreement with the predictions of the existing models of shear relaxation and shear thinning based on the nonlinear Langevin equation theory, random first order transition theory, and the free volume model. However, in contrast to the theoretical predictions, the reduced shear rate W0 (=τ0γ̇c) at the onset is found to range between 10-3 and 10-5 and decrease with increasing temperature. This temperature dependence becomes stronger with increasing fragility of the liquid. These results likely indicate that the shear thinning mechanism in network liquids could be fundamentally different from those in molecular, metallic, or polymeric glass-formers.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the influence of preoperative fasting duration on blood volume status of pediatric patients during induction based on ultrasonic technique. Methods: One hundred and ten pediatric patients, scheduled for elective operation in the Second Affiliated Hospital & Yuying Children's Hospital, were recruited during January and October in 2018. After sedation by inhalation of sevoflurane, the maximum (expiratory) and minimum (inspiratory) diameter of inferior vena cava (IVC(max), IVC(min)) and aorta velocity-time integral (VTI) in apical five-chamber cardiac view were measured with an ultrasound machine. Respiratory variabilities of these parameters were further calculated. Furthermore, passive leg raising (PLR) test was performed and above measurements/calculations were repeated. The correlation between the duration of fasting and IVC respiratory variations index (IVC(RVI)) or aortic VTI variability (ΔVTI) was then analyzed. Results: Before PLR, IVC(max), IVC(min) and IVC(RVI) were (0.78±0.19), (0.43±0.15) cm and 0.45±0.12, respectively. After PLR, IVC(max) and IVC(min) increased to (0.94±0.20), (0.55±0.18) cm, while IVC(RVI) decreased to 0.42±0.13, the differences were statistically significant (t=15.66, 10.85, 3.14, all P<0.05). However, IVC(max), IVC(min) and IVC(RVI) were not significantly correlated with the duration of fasting analyzed by linear regression (before PLR: r=0.052, 0.163, 0.171; after PLR, r=0.062, 0.169, 0.165, all P>0.05). Before PLR, expiratory aortic VTI (VTI(max)), inspiratory aortic VTI (VTI(min)) and ΔVTI were 21±5, 17±4 and 17±8, respectively. After PLR, the VTI(max) and VTI(min) significantly increased to 23±5 and 19±4 (t=13.60, 10.43, all P<0.05), but ΔVTI was not changed significantly, which was 17±8(t=0.34, P>0.05). Linear regression analysis showed that VTI(max), VTI(min) and ΔVTI were not significantly correlated with the duration of fasting (before PLR: r=0.111, 0.100, 0.047; after PLR: r=0.003, 0.033, 0.073, all P>0.05). Further multiple linear regression analysis indicated that, age and body weight were independent factors influencing IVC(RVI) and ΔVTI before and after PLR (IVC(RVI): β=-0.441, 0.515, -0.451, 0.507; ΔVTI: β=-0.442, 0.545, -2.422, 2.850; all P<0.05). However, the duration of fasting was not correlated with IVC(RVI) and ΔVTI after adjusting the age and weight (IVC(RVI): β=0.177, 0.160; ΔVTI: β=0.037, 0.054; all P>0.05). Conclusion: Age and weight, but not preoperative fasting duration, are correlated with respiratory variabilities of inferior vena cava diameter and aortic VTI in pediatric patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Despite the latest progress in heart failure therapy, early diagnosis and clinical prognosis prediction are still critical issues nowadays. It has been proved that carnitines play an essential role in fatty acid metabolism. However, it is unclear about the changes and clinical effects of circulating carnitines in heart failure.
Objectives
This study was designed to clarify the alteration of serum carnitine and its derivates in heart failure patients, and to verify the impact of carnitines on heart failure etiology discrimination and mortality prediction.
Methods
A total of 161 heart failure patients (Dilated cardiomyopathy: DCM, n=98; ischemia cardiomyopathy: ICM, n=63) and control patients (n=48) were enrolled from Feb to Sep in 2017. Serum L-carnitines were quantitatively measured by liquid chromatography/ mass spectrometry. All patients underwent follow-up (mean 30.8 months). Multi-variable Cox survival was performed to verify the impact of carnitines on heart failure mortality prediction.
Results
A total of 27 different carnitine derivates were detected. Compared with control group, 26 types of carnitines were increased significantly in heart failure patients. Several circulating carnitines were independent biomarkers for heart failure even adjusted by multi-variable logistic analysis. We also found 7 carnitines were obviously increased in DCM group than those in ICM group. Isobutyryl-L-carnitine and stearoyl-L-carnitine were independently associated with higher probability of DCM than ICM. DCM prediction model established by adding carnitines (isobutyryl-L-carnitine and stearoyl-L-carnitine) to age, serum creatinine and left ventricular ejection fraction,had favorable discrimination (C-index = 0.832, P<0.01, Figure 1A and B) and calibration efficiency (Hosmer-Lemeshow χ2=7.376, P=0.497>0.05).
Meanwhile, a total of 43 mortality event occurred, 18 death (31.6%) in ICM group and 25 (27.2%) in DCM group. Independent clinical risk factors for the occurrence of mortality were serum creatinine >2mg/dl, left atrial diameter 0.55mm and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide >4000 pg/ml. Using multi-variable COX survival analysis simultaneously adjusted by serum creatinine, left atrial diameter, NT-pro-BNP and age, oleoyl L-carnitine >300nmo/L (HR=2.364, 95% CI: 1.122–4.976, P=0.024) and isovaleryl-L-carnitine <100nmol/L (HR=2.108, 95% CI: 1.091–4.074, P=0.026) were also independently associated with higher mortality.
Conclusions
As one of critical participants in fatty acid metabolism, L-carnitines alteration not only differentiates DCM patients from ICM ones, but also independently predicts the risk of long-term mortality in heart failure patients.

Abstract
Objective: To understand the effectiveness and safety sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) combination ±ribavirin in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in China. Methods: A total of 96 Chinese adults with chronic HCV infection who were treated with SOF/VEL combination ± ribavirin for 12 weeks between July 2018 and February 2020 were selected. HCV RNA, routine blood test, liver, kidney and coagulation function, abdominal Color Doppler ultrasound or CT and liver stiffness were detected at baseline, 4 weeks of treatment, end of treatment and 12 weeks of follow-up. Adverse events and laboratory abnormalities during the treatment were recorded. A t-test was used to compare the measurement data between the two groups, and the analysis of variance was used for multiple group comparison. Results: A total of 93 cases (96.9%) achieved sustained virological response (SVR12), of which 3 cases had relapsed. 88 cases (91.7%, 88/96) had achieved rapid virological response (RVR). 96 cases (100%) had achieved virological response by the end of treatment (EOT). In patients with decompensated liver cirrhosis, the average baseline Child-Pugh score and Model for End-Stage Liver Disease score was 7.4±1.0, and 11.4±1.7, respectively. Among them, 12 cases of the SOF/VEL combined with RBV treatment had achieved SVR12 (100%) at 12 weeks, while only 3 of the 5 cases of single-tablet regimen of SOF/VEL had achieved SVR12 (60%). There was no significant difference between creatinine levels and baseline during or 12 weeks after treatment. The incidence of adverse events in patients with chronic hepatitis C and compensated cirrhosis was 6.3% (5/79), while that in patients with decompensated cirrhosis was 35.3% (6/17). The most common adverse events were hyperbilirubinemia, fatigue and anemia. There were no serious adverse events, deaths or discontinuation of treatment due to adverse events. Conclusion: SOF/VEL combination ± ribavirin in the treatment of various common genotypes of chronic hepatitis C, compensated cirrhosis, decompensated cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma has higher SVR12 in China, and the tolerance and safety are good.

Abstract
Objective: To analysis the distribution characteristics of coal worker's pneumoconiosis in Hubei Province during 2006-2010 (the 11th Five-Year Plan period) and 2011-2015 (the 12th Five-Year Plan period) , and its correlation with the gross domestic product (GDP) of Hubei Province from 1986 to 2015. Methods: In September 2019, the data of newly diagnosed coal worker's pneumoconiosis reported in Occupational Disease and Occupational Health Information Monitoring System from 2006 to 2015 and the GDP data from 1986 to 2015 in Hubei Province were collected. The distribution characteristics of time, region, enterprise size, industry and economic type of coal-worker's pneumoconiosis and its correlation with GDP were analyzed. Results: In 2006-2015, 3807 new cases of coal worker's pneumoconiosis were reported in Hubei Province. The time distribution generally ascended as a wave trend. The number of new cases reached its peak in 2013 (722 cases) . GDP growth continued between 1986-1995, 1996-2005 and 2006-2015, especially in 2006-2015. New cases of coal worker's pneumoconiosis were mainly distributed in Huangshi city, Yichang city and Enshi prefecture, accounting for 82.40% (3137/3807) of the total cases. The proportion of new cases in Huangshi city was higher than that in Yichang city and Enshi prefecture (χ(2)=272.66, 243.19, P<0.05) . New cases were mainly distributed in coal mining industry (3103 cases, 81.51%) , small-sized and medium (1675 cases, 44.00%) , and private enterprises (1621 cases, 42.58%) . The rank correlation (r(s)) of coal worker's pneumoconiosis in 2006-2015 with GDP in1986-1995, 1996-2005 and 2006-2015 were 0.157, 0.144, 0.200, respectively, and there were no significant differences (P>0.05) . Conclusion: The coalworker's pneumoconiosis in Hubei Province are mostly distributed in small and medium-sized private enterprises, and the regional distribution is concentrated in Huangshi city, Yichang city and Enshi prefecture. The concentration of cases is closely related to the number and energy production of local coal mines. There is no correlation between the growth of GDP and the distribution of cases.
