Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical predictive factors associated with pathologic complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in rectal cancer. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data of 87 patients with rectal cancer, who underwent neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by radical surgery from April 2007 to May 2015. All patients received pelvic intensity-modulated radiotherapy (50 Gy/25 fractions) with concurrent fluorouracil- based chemotherapy and then underwent radical surgery 4-8 weeks later. The clinical factors associated with pCR or non-pCR were analyzed by Logistic regression. RESULTS Eighty-three patients had completed treatment, of which 15 patients (18.1%) achieved pCR after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Univariate analysis showed non-diabetes(P=0.033), pre-chemoradiotherapy plasma glucose(≤6.1 mmol/L)(P=0.033), pre-chemoradiotherapy CEA(≤5 μg/L)(P=0.026), pre- chemoradiotherapy plasma lymphocytes count(≤1.5×10(9)/L)(P=0.042), pre- chemoradiotherapy plasma platelet(≤240×10(12))(P=0.043), tumor pathological type(adenocarcinoma)(P=0.036)were significantly correlated with pCR after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in rectal cancer. Logistic regression revealed that non-diabetes, pre-chemoradiotherapy plasma glucose, pre-chemoradiotherapy CEA(≤5 μg/L), pre-chemoradiotherapy plasma lymphocytes count(≤1.5×10(9)/L), tumor pathological type(adenocarcinoma) were independent predictive factors of pCR after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in rectal cancer. CONCLUSION Patients with non-diabetes, normal plasma glucose, normal CEA, lower plasma lymphocytes count and adenocarcinoma were associated with pCR after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for rectal cancer.

Abstract
GRAS proteins play vital roles in plant growth and development. Physic nut (Jatropha curcas L.) was found to have a total of 48 GRAS family members (JcGRAS), 15 more than those found in Arabidopsis. The JcGRAS genes were divided into 12 subfamilies or 15 ancient monophyletic lineages based on the phylogenetic analysis of GRAS proteins from both flowering and lower plants. The functions of GRAS genes in 9 subfamilies have been reported previously for several plants, while the genes in the remaining 3 subfamilies were of unknown function; we named the latter families U1 to U3. No member of U3 subfamily is present in Arabidopsis and Poaceae species according to public genome sequence data. In comparison with the number of GRAS genes in Arabidopsis, more were detected in physic nut, resulting from the retention of many ancient GRAS subfamilies and the formation of tandem repeats during evolution. No evidence of recent duplication among JcGRAS genes was observed in physic nut. Based on digital gene expression data, 21 of the 48 genes exhibited differential expression in four tissues analyzed. Two members of subfamily U3 were expressed only in buds and flowers, implying that they may play specific roles. Our results provide valuable resources for future studies on the functions of GRAS proteins in physic nut.

Abstract
Substoichiometric tungsten oxide single-crystal nanosheets are successfully prepared via the exfoliation of layered tungstic acid and subsequent introduction of oxygen vacancies. The combination of different strategies, i.e., 2D-structure construction, the introduction of surface oxygen vacancies, and the creation of localized surface plasmon resonance can promote the light-harvesting performance of tungsten oxide through accumulative and synergistic effects.

Abstract
Although radical nephrectomy alone is widely accepted as the standard of care in
localized treatment for renal cell carcinoma (RCC), it is not sufficient for the
treatment of metastatic RCC (mRCC), which invariably leads to an unfavorable outcome
despite the use of multiple therapies. Currently, sequential targeted agents are
recommended for the management of mRCC, but the optimal drug sequence is still
debated. This case was a 57-year-old man with clear-cell mRCC who received multiple
therapies following his first operation in 2003 and has survived for over 10 years
with a satisfactory quality of life. The treatments given included several surgeries,
immunotherapy, and sequentially administered sorafenib, sunitinib, and everolimus
regimens. In the course of mRCC treatment, well-planned surgeries, effective
sequential targeted therapies and close follow-up are all of great importance for
optimal management and a satisfactory outcome.

Abstract
The sole effect of surface/bulk defects of TiO2 samples on their photocatalytic activity was investigated. Nano-sized anatase and rutile TiO2 were prepared by hydrothermal method and their surface/bulk defects were adjusted simply by calcination at different temperatures, i.e. 400-700 °C. High temperature calcinations induced the growth of crystalline sizes and a decrease in the surface areas, while the crystalline phase and the exposed facets were kept unchanged during calcination, as indicated by the characterization results from XRD, Raman, nitrogen adsorption-desorption, TEM and UV-Vis spectra. The existence of surface/bulk defects in calcined TiO2 samples was confirmed by photoluminescence and XPS spectra, and the surface/bulk defect ratio was quantitatively analyzed according to positron annihilation results. The photocatalytic activity of calcined TiO2 samples was evaluated in the photocatalytic reforming of methanol and the photocatalytic oxidation of α-phenethyl alcohol. Based on the characterization and catalytic results, a direct correlation between the surface specific photocatalytic activity and the surface/bulk defect density ratio could be drawn for both anatase TiO2 and rutile TiO2. The surface defects of TiO2, i.e. oxygen vacancy clusters, could promote the separation of electron-hole pairs under irradiation, and therefore, enhance the activity during photocatalytic reaction.
