Abstract
This study was carried out to investigate the effects of pH and heat on the structure and function of milk proteins by comparing goat milk treated under different pH and temperature conditions. The results showed that pH had a significant effect on the thermal stability of goat milk proteins, and the proteins were least thermally stable at pH 7.7. Except for the pH 6.9 goat milk, the surface hydrophobicities of the milk proteins at various pH values reached their maxima at 85°C. The particle size, zeta potential, and content of regular secondary structure also decreased significantly at 85°C, and the turbidity of milk proteins under alkaline pH conditions was lower than that under acidic conditions. It was concluded that alkaline conditions resulted in better emulsion stability and oil-holding capacity, and acidic conditions offered better foaming ability, foam stability, and water-holding capacity for goat milk protein during heat processing. It can also be seen that 85°C was the key temperature for milk proteins after changing the pH of the milk. This paper provides a theoretical basis for optimizing the processing conditions for goat milk and the applications of goat milk proteins.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous investigations have shown that miR-183 is upregulated in bladder cancer (BC); however, its biological significance is not fully investigated. The goal of the current study is to analyze the function of miR-183 in BC development and progression. PATIENTS AND METHODS 23 pairs of BC tumor and adjacent tissues were analyzed for miR-183 and c-Myc expression using Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). MiR-183 expression was modulated by transfection of miR-183 or miR-183 inhibitor (miR-183-in). Protein expression of AXIN2, c-Myc and Cyclin D1 was determined by western blot. Cell growth activity and apoptotic potential were evaluated by cell viability assay and flow cytometry assay, respectively. Luciferase activity assay was conducted to determine whether AXIN2 is a direct target of miR-183. RESULTS The expression of miR-183 is upregulated in BC tissues and cell lines, and is positively correlated with the expression of the Wnt target gene, c-Myc. MiR-183 positively regulated Wnt signaling activity by directly suppressing its negative feedback regulator, AXIN2. Overexpression of miR-183 promoted cell growth and inhibited apoptosis. Inhibition of miR-183 attenuated cell growth and enhanced apoptosis. The effect of miR-183 on cell growth and apoptosis can be abolished by knockdown of AXIN2. CONCLUSIONS MiR-183 functions as an oncomiR in BC and upregulates Wnt signaling activity by directly suppressing AXIN2 expression.

Abstract
Andrias davidianus is widely recognized in traditional medicine as a cure-all to treat a plethora of ailments. In a previous study, a novel antibacterial peptide named andricin B was isolated from A. davidianus blood. In this study, we investigated andricin B structure and its mode of action. Circular dichroism spectra suggested that andricin B adopts a random coil state in aqueous solution and a more rigid conformation in the presence of bacteria. Moreover propidium iodide/fluorescein diacetate double staining indicated that bacteria treated with andricin B were not immediately eliminated. Rather, there is a gradual bacterial death, followed by a sublethal stage. Scanning electronic microscope imaging indicates that andricin B might form pores on cell membranes, leading to the release of cytoplasmic contents. These results were consistent with flow cytometry analysis. Furthermore, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy suggests that andricin B induces changes in the chemical properties in the areas surrounding these "pores" on the cell membranes. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The results of this study suggested the new perspectives about the mode of action of antimicrobial peptide (AMP) active against sensitive bacteria. The AMP was able to be in a random coiled state in aqueous solution but to change to a more rigid one in the presence of sensitive bacteria. Exposure to AMP might not lead to immediate death of treated bacteria, rather bacteria concentration decreased gradually flattening at a sublethal stage. These findings will help people to understand better how the AMPs activate against sensitive bacteria.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the fetal adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs) and the predictive value of umbilical arterial Doppler ultrasonography in the third trimester in pregnant women with lupus nephritis (LN). METHODS A retrospective cohort study enrolling 203 LN patients from 2007 to 2017 was performed. Ultrasonic parameters were recorded. RESULTS Fetal APOs occurred in 103 patients (103/203, 50.7%). Sixty-six pregnancies (66/203, 32.5%) ended with preterm births. The incidence rate of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) was 18.2% (37/203). Fetal distress was noted in 23 pregnancies (23/203, 11.3%). All the Doppler parameters elevated in patients with IUGR, fetal distress, and composite conditions. Resistance index (RI) indicated the highest risk of IUGR and composite APOs. The cutoff values were 0.66 and 0.67, respectively. Sensitivities were 51.4% and 33.7%, and specificities were 87.4% and 92.1%. Peak velocity of the umbilical arteries at end-systole (Vmax, abbreviated as S) to that at end-diastole (Vmin, abbreviated as D) (S/D) ratio was also a best predictor for IUGR, with the optimal cutoff value of 2.88. Sensitivity and specificity were comparable with RI. Pulsatility index (PI) over 0.84 was an ideal indicator for fetal distress with an optimal combination of sensitivity (89.5%) and specificity (51.6%). CONCLUSIONS Fetal complications were frequent in patients with LN. Umbilical arterial Doppler ultrasonography was a useful measure to predict late IUGR, fetal distress, and the composite APOs.

Abstract
Abstract
Objective
While the use of validity testing in neuropsychological assessments to assist in differentiation between epileptic seizures (ES) and psychogenic non-epileptic events (PNEE) is becoming common, validity considerations regarding symptom self-reporting is seldom examined. This study seeks to add clarity by examining performance validity tests (PVT), and self-report measures of emotional symptoms and daily functioning, in a sample of those with either ES or PNEE.
Methods
Patients: Consecutive Veteran patients referred to an epilepsy monitoring unit for evaluation of intractable seizures, and subsequently diagnosed with ES (32) or PNEE (75). A fixed battery of psychological (Beck Depression Inventory-II, Patient Competency Rating Scale, Quality of Life in Epilepsy) and PVT (Test of Memory Malinger, Word Memory Test) measures were administered as part of a broader neuropsychological assessment. Patients were classified by both their diagnostic, and PVT pass/fail, statuses (PNEEpass, PNEEfail, & ESpass – ESfail was too small to analyze).
Results
PNEE reported more severe symptoms/impairments than ES (each p < .01) when ignoring PVT results. Importantly, when PVTs were considered, PNEEfail reported worse symptoms/impairments than PNEEpass (each p < .01), and PNEEpass and ESpass did not differ on emotional distress (p = .07).
Conclusions
Those with PNEE who fail PVTs report worse psychological distress and functional abilities than both those who pass and those with ES. This is likely due to symptom exaggeration. Validity testing should thus be considered a crucial component of assessment of these individuals: if invalid self-reporting is not accounted for, clinicians put themselves at risk for coming to faulty conclusions while more parsimonious explanations are available.

Abstract
We report on the highest energy photons from the Crab Nebula observed by the Tibet air shower array with the underground water-Cherenkov-type muon detector array. Based on the criterion of a muon number measured in an air shower, we successfully suppress 99.92% of the cosmic-ray background events with energies E>100 TeV. As a result, we observed 24 photonlike events with E>100 TeV against 5.5 background events, which corresponds to a 5.6σ statistical significance. This is the first detection of photons with E>100 TeV from an astrophysical source.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of the flap on post aurem and mastoid region on immediate repair of part helix defect. Method: Fifteen patients with part helix defect were immediately repaired using the flap on post aurem and mastoid region. Firstly, the skin tissue above the defect of the helix was used as the pedicle. The flap was drawn toward the post aurem and mastoid region closing to the auriculocephalic angle. The flap was generally 3-4 cm long and at least 1 cm wide. Secondly, the flap was lifted on the perichondrium, and the structure of the helix was formed by upward rotation of the flap to repair the defect of the helix. Finally, the flap was sutured to repair the helix defect. Result: Fifteen cases were applied with this method to repair immediately the defect in the emergency environment. The sizes of helix contour were satisfactory and the auriculocephalic angles had not changed. The ear shape was stable after 1 to 3 months of followup. Conclusion: The flap on post aurem and mastoid region could immediately repair the part helix defect. It has the advantages of simple operation, high flap survival rate and one-time satisfactory shape..

Abstract
Hereditary gingival fibromatosis (HGF) is a highly genetically heterogeneous disease, and current therapeutic method is limited to surgical resection with a high recurrence rate. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are able to fine-tune large-scale target genes. Here we established a simple but effective computational strategy based on available miRNA target prediction algorithms to pinpoint the most potent miRNA that could negatively regulate a group of functional genes. Based on this rationale, miR-335-3p was top ranked by putatively targeting 85 verified profibrotic genes and 79 upregulated genes in HGF patients. Experimentally, downregulation of miR-355-3p was demonstrated in HGF-derived gingival fibroblasts as well as in transforming growth factor β–stimulated normal human gingival fibroblasts (NHGFs) compared to normal control. Ectopic miR-335-3p attenuated, whereas knockdown of miR-335-3p promoted, the fibrogenic activity of human gingival fibroblasts. Mechanically, miR-335-3p directly targeted SOS1, SMAD2/3, and CTNNB1 by canonical and noncanonical base paring. In particular, different portfolios of fibrotic markers were suppressed by silencing SOS1, SMAD2/3, or CTNNB1, respectively. Thus, our study first proposes a novel miRNA screening approach targeting a functionally related gene set and identifies miR-335-3p as a novel target for HGF treatment. Mechanically, miR-335-3p suppresses the fibrogenic activity of human gingival fibroblasts by repressing multiple core molecules in profibrotic networks. Our strategy provides a new paradigm in the treatment for HGF as well as other diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The associations between red and processed meat consumption and esophageal cancer risk remain inconclusive. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to analyze these associations. METHODS We searched PubMed and EMBASE to identify studies published between the databases' dates of inception and May 2019. RESULTS We ultimately selected 33 eligible studies for analysis. We found that the summary relative risks for the associations between meat consumption and esophageal cancer risk were positive for the case-control studies (P < 0.05), but negative for the cohort studies included in the analysis (P > 0.05). Subtype analysis indicated that red and processed meat consumption was not associated with the risks of esophageal adenocarcinoma (P > 0.05) and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (P > 0.05) in the cohort studies. CONCLUSIONS We found case-control but not cohort studies to associate consumption of red and processed meat with the risk of esophageal cancer. Further large prospective studies are needed to validate these findings.

Abstract
Abstract In 2014, the International Endohernia Society (IEHS) published the first international “Guidelines for laparoscopic treatment of ventral and incisional abdominal wall hernias.” Guidelines reflect the currently best available evidence in diagnostics and therapy and give recommendations to help surgeons to standardize their techniques and to improve their results. However, science is a dynamic field which is continuously developing. Therefore, guidelines require regular updates to keep pace with the evolving literature. Methods For the development of the original guidelines, all relevant literature published up to year 2012 was analyzed using the ranking of the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine. For the present update, all of the previous authors were asked to evaluate the literature published during the recent years from 2012 to 2017 and revise their statements and recommendations given in the initial guidelines accordingly. In two Consensus Conferences (October 2017 Beijing, March 2018 Cologne), the updates were presented, discussed, and confirmed. To avoid redundancy, only new statements or recommendations are included in this paper. Therefore, for full understanding both of the guidelines, the original and the current, must be read. In addition, the new developments in repair of abdominal wall hernias like surgical techniques within the abdominal wall, release operations (transversus muscle release, component separation), Botox application, and robot-assisted repair methods were included. Results Due to an increase of the number of patients and further development of surgical techniques, repair of primary and secondary abdominal wall hernias attracts increasing interests of many surgeons. Whereas up to three decades ago hernia-related publications did not exceed 20 per year, currently this number is about 10-fold higher. Recent years are characterized by the advent of new techniques—minimal invasive techniques using robotics and laparoscopy, totally extraperitoneal repairs, novel myofascial release techniques for optimal closure of large defects, and Botox for relaxing the abdominal wall. Furthermore, a concomitant rectus diastasis was recognized as a significant risk factor for recurrence. Despite insufficient evidence with respect to these new techniques, it seemed to us necessary to include them in the update to stimulate surgeons to do research in these fields. Conclusion Guidelines are recommendations based on best available evidence intended to help the surgeon to improve the quality of his daily work. However, science is a continuously evolving process, and as such guidelines should be updated about every 3 years. For a comprehensive reference, however, it is suggested to read both the initial guidelines published in 2014 together with the update. Moreover, the presented update includes also techniques which were not known 3 years before.

Abstract
Hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (HFSRT) is a common salvage treatment for recurrent malignant glioma (MG). However, it remains controversial whether the combination of HFSRT and chemotherapy could improve survival for patients with recurrent MG compared to HFSRT alone. The present systematic review and meta-analysis aims to investigate this question, and tries to determine to what extent the addition of chemotherapy to HFSRT affects survival. A systematic review was performed to analyse the survival for patients treated with HFSRT combined with chemotherapy or not. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for overall survival (OS) were pooled with random effects; and standard mean difference (MD) with 95% CIs for OS were pooled using the same strategy. A total of 7 studies including 388 patients with recurrent MG were eligible for our study. The OS survival of patients receiving combination therapy ranged from 8.7 to 23 months, and the median OS of patients underwent HFSRT ranged from 3.9 to 12 months. The meta-analyses resulted in the pooled HR of 0.44 (95% CI 0.30-0.65, p < 0.0001) (Cochran Q statistic 4.70, P = 0.320, I2 = 14.8%) and pooled standard MD of 0.80 months (95% CI 0.41-1.18, p < 0.001) (Cochran Q statistic 10.16, p = 0.71, I2 = 50.8%). The present study suggests that HFSRT + chemotherapy confers a slight survival improvement for patients with recurrent MG as compared with sole HFSRT management. To draw a more solid conclusion, greater investigation is warranted.

Abstract
We have upgraded the new Tibet ASgamma experiment in China since 2014 to measure the chemical composition of cosmic rays around the knee. This hybrid experiment consist of an air-shower-core detector array (YAC-II) to detect high energy electromagnetic component, the Tibet air-shower array (Tibet-III) and a large underground water-Cherenkov muon-detector array (MD). We have carried out a detailed air-shower Monte Carlo (MC) simulation to study the performance of the hybrid detectors by using CORSIKA (version 7.5000), which includes EPOS-LHC, QGSJETII-04, SIBYLL2.1 and SIBYLL2.3 hadronic interaction models. The preliminary results of the interaction model checking above 50 TeV energy region are reported in this paper, and the primary proton and helium spectra in the energy range 50 TeV to 1015 eV was derived from YAC-I data and is smoothly connected with direct observation data at lower energies and also with our previously reported works at higher energies within statistical errors. The knee of the (P+He) spectra is located around 400 TeV. The interaction model dependence in deriving the primary (P+He) spectra is found to be small (less than 25% in absolute intensity, 10% in position of the knee), and the composition model dependence is less than 10% in absolute intensity.

Abstract
Fever and abdominal pain are common symptoms and could be main manifestations in patients with autoinflammatory diseases. A 48-year-old female patient was admitted with recurrent fever and abdominal pain for 9 years. Serum level of inflammatory markers synchronously fluctuated with fever, and returned to normal when fever subsided. The periodic episodes of fever occurred every 1 to 4 months and failed to respond to empirical antibiotics. Whole exome sequencing showed heterozygous mutation of NOD2 gene q902k, leading to the final diagnosis of autoinflammatory disease. Corticosteroid and tripterygiumglycosides were effective for the disease remission.

Abstract
Intestinal mucositis is a frequent side effect in cancer patients who are treated with chemotherapy. There are no effective treatment strategies to date. To find a novel way to alleviate mucositis, the effects of selenium-enriched Bifidobacterium longum (Se-B. longum) in preventing irinotecan (CPT-11)-induced intestinal mucositis in a mouse model were investigated. We tested the ability of Se-B. longum (Se 0.6 mg/kg, 5×108 cfu/mice) to reduce small intestinal mucositis induced by CPT-11 (75 mg/kg, daily) injected intraperitoneally for four consecutive days in mice. Se-B. longum significantly decreased mortality induced by CPT-11 from 71.4% to 16.7%. CPT-11 induced body weight loss, which was alleviated by preventative and simultaneous administration of Se-B. longum. Se-B. longum significantly decreased the severity of diarrhoea from 11 to 4% compared to the CPT-11 group. Inflammation, including intestinal shortening and upregulation of tumour necrosis factor-α and interleukin-1β induced by CPT- 11, were prevented by Se-B. longum. Se-B. longum is effective in preventing small intestinal mucositis induced by CPT-11 and therefore has potential to be used clinically by cancer patients.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the prognostic impact of Ikaros family zinc finger 1(IKZF1) mutation on adult Philadelphia chromosome (Ph1) positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients. Methods: IKZF1 mutation was detected in 63 adult Ph1 positive ALL patients at diagnosis using capillary electrophoresis. Recruited patients were treated in our center and other three hospitals in Ningbo from January 2014 to January 2017. Clinical data were collected and retrospectively analyzed. Results: Thirty-nine (61.9%) patients were positive IKZF1 mutation in this cohort. The white blood cell (WBC) count in IKZF1 mutation group was significantly higher than that of mutation negative group [(64.6±11.3)×10(9)/L vs. (33.7±5.6)×10(9)/L, P<0.05]. Patients with WBC count over 30×10(9)/L accounted for 56.4% in IKZF1 mutation group. Complete remission (CR) rate in the IKZF1 mutation group was also lower than that of negative group after induction chemotherapy (64.1% vs. 75.0%, P>0.05). IKZF1 was a negative prognostic factor but not independent factor for survival by univariate and multivariate analyses. Patients were divided into chemotherapy and allogeneic transplantation groups. The 3-year overall survival (OS) rate and 3-year leukemia-free survival (LFS) rate in IKZF1 mutation group were significantly lower than those of negative group in both transplantation group (42.3% vs. 59.3%; 31.2% vs. 50.0%; respectively, both P<0.05) and chemotherapy group (24.8% vs. 40.0%; 19.0% vs. 34.3%; respectively, both P<0.05). Conclusion: IKZF1 mutation is a poor prognostic factor for adult Ph1 positive ALL patients.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the mRNA genomics changes and significance of important ion channel proteins in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), to reveal the mechanism of electrical remodeling in AF. Methods: Ninety patients with AF were chosen to receive the radiofrequency ablation (AF-RFA), 90 healthy subjects were included as the normal control group.The coronary sinus blood and peripheral venous blood were taken from each AF patient during the operation of AF-RFA.The genome-wide mRNA expression profile was analyzed with mRNA microarray chip, and the mRNA expression difference results for the major ion channel gene was further validated using Real-time PCR test. Results: The expression of twelve ion channel protein mRNA increased ≥2.0-fold, expression of 10 mRNA decreased ≥2.0-fold, among which K(+) channel gene KCNE4, KCND2, KCNN4 declined obviously, KCNA5 dropped 11.54-fold (P< 0.01); KCNS3, KCNS1, KCNG1, KCNG7 and Ca(+ +) channel gene CACNA2D3 increased significantly.Compared with autologous peripheral blood, 12 mRNAs of ion channel protein in coronary sinus blood of AF patients was differentially expressed ≥2.0-fold.Compared with control group in peripheral blood, 7 ion channel protein mRNA expression differences was ≥2.0-fold, and the KCNA5 gene expression was down by 8.13-fold.RT-PCR confirmed that the trend and extent of differential expression were consistent with the chip results.The results of myocardial tissue RT-PCR showed that CACNA1C, KCNC3, KCNG1 and KCNK7 mRNA were up-regulated in AF (P<0.05), and other ion channel mRNA expressions were down-regulated (P<0.05). KCNA5 was down-regulated most obvious. Conclusion: The down-regulation of KCNA5 gene expression in AF patients is most obvious, and more potassium ion channel expression differences are also significant, so that the potassium ion channel reconstruction may play a dominant or much more important role in AF electrical remodeling.

Abstract
This study investigated the protein changes in goat milk during the homogenization process using label-free quantification. We quantified 310 and 315 proteins in the control group (CG) and homogenized group (HG), respectively, and 16 proteins were significantly different between the 2 groups. For HG, the goat milk protein particle sizes were smaller and more evenly distributed and exhibited an increase in the regular arrangement of the secondary structures. Proteomics analysis verified that xanthine dehydrogenase and asparaginase-like 1 expression in CG were higher than in HG, whereas the opposite was observed for fructose-bisphosphate aldolase, κ-casein, and β-casein. Significant changes were found in the homogenization-treated goat milk proteome that were related to goat milk glycolysis/gluconeogenesis metabolism. This work provides updated information on the current proteome characteristics of homogenized goat milk, which may be important for applying the protein component of goat milk to human nutrition and health.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Intraoperative pathological diagnosis such as frozen section and imprint cytology is not routinely recommended in clinical practice because of time and accuracy concerns. Full-field optical coherence tomography (FF-OCT) is a new optical imaging technique that could generate sectioning tomogram from fresh tissue and provide depiction of the morphological structure and pathological changes in minutes without conventional tissue preparation, slicing, and staining, and dynamic cell imaging (DCI) added the viability information of cells/tissue, which could be more important in cancer diagnosis. This study was to evaluate the feasibility and diagnostic value of FF-OCT and DCI in breast lesions and lymph node specimens during breast cancer surgery.
Methods: We evaluated normal breast tissue, benign breast lesions, breast cancer and axillary lymph node specimens from 107 patients using FF-OCT and DCI. After the optical assessment, the tissue was paraffin embedded and sent to conventional H&E diagnosis. The similar layer of OCT and H&E images were compared and diagnostic criteria were generated. The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity by two trained surgeons without pathology diagnosis experience were evaluated.
Results: A total of 194 specimens were examined, including 143 breast tissue(101 malignant and 42 benign/normal) and 51 lymph nodes(26 metastatic and 25 non-metastatic). On FF-OCT and DCI, normal morphological structures such as adipose, collagen, mammary ducts, and lobules in breast tissue and lymphoid follicle and hilum in lymph nodes were easily recognized. Breast cancer characteristics on H&E imaging correspond to collagen distortion, focal hypointensity, micro-calcification, clustered or linear lively cells et etc on FF-OCT or DCI, which could also be easily distinguished. We included the previously mentioned features to build diagnosis criteria for cancer on FF-OCT and DCI. The average acquisition time is 14±11 minutes. The sensitivity and specificity for breast cancer diagnosis were 92.1% and 94.3% respectively. The sensitivity and specificity for lymph node involvement were 92.3% and 84% respectively.
Conclusion: The time- and tissue-saving optical imaging technique yielded high accuracy that was comparable to that of traditional intraoperative and postoperative pathological diagnosis in breast cancer and lymph node metastasis. These results implied the promising application in the intraoperative evaluation and possible decrease of the re-excision rate for breast cancer surgery.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and Objectives:
Although de-escalation of axillary surgery becomes more popular, axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) is still the standard care for sentinel lymph node(SLN) positive patients not meeting the criteria of ACOSOG Z0011 in many hospitals, and frozen section (FS) of SLN is one of the valuble intra-operative assesments to avoid axilla re-operation although it was controversial due to accuracy and efficiency concerns. This study was to assess the performance of selective use of frozen section evaluation guided by MSKCC lymph node metastasis risk prediction nomogram to optimize the proceudure to be more accurate and cost effective.
Methods:
Surgical pathology records of consecutive 2582 biopsies in 2552 patients breast cancer patients from 2011 to 2017 were reviewed, intra-operative frozen section diagnosis were compared to post-operative paraffin reports. We calculated the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and FNR for different MSKCC risk, the axilla re-operation rate with or without FS and the number needed to treat (NNT) to avoid second ALND was also analyzed.
Results:
The sensitivity, specificity, and FNR of FS were 84.7%, 99.9%, and 15.3% respectively. The axilla re-operation rates were significantly decreased if FS was done(4.7%±0.4% with FS versus 35.8%±5.8% without FS, P<0.001). The estimated axilla re-operation rate without FS was positively correlated with MSKCC risk(r=0.99, P<0.001), while NNT to avoid second ALND by FS were negatively correlated with MSKCC risk(r=-0.98, P<0.001). When patients were divided into four groups according to quartile MSKCC risk, the axilla re-excisional rates were 18.4%, 25.1%, 38.7%, 58.7% without FS, while 4.8%, 3.2%, 5.6%, 3.2% with FS, and NNT correspondingly decreased from 7.3, 4.5, 3.0 to 1.8. An decision-making algorithm for application of FS was proposed.
Conclusion:
Stratified decision-making algorithm based on MSKCC prediction model improved the efficiency of FS to avoid axilla re-operatioin in patients undergoing sentinel lymph node biopsy. We recommend FS be restricted to patients with MSKCC risk higher than 0.5 who do not meet ACOSOG Z0011 criteria.

Abstract
In the Canadian Athabasca Oil Sands Region (AOSR), nestling tree swallows (Tachycineta bicolor) raised near mining-related activities accumulated greater concentrations of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) that contributed to their poorer condition, growth, and reproductive success. Here, we report changes in thyroid function of the same 14 day old (do) nestlings (N ≤ 68) at these mining-related sites (OS1, OS2) compared to reference nestlings (REF1), and in relation to multiple environmental stressors that influence avian thyroid function. Thyroid function was compromised for OS1 nestlings but generally comparable between OS2 and REF1 chicks. In 2012, circulating total triiodothyronine (TT3) and thyroxine (TT4) were similar among all nestlings. The OS1 chicks had more active thyroid glands based on histological endpoints. Hepatic T4 outer-ring deiodinase (T4-ORD) activity was suppressed in OS1 and OS2 chicks. Despite inter-annual differences, OS1 chicks continued experiencing compromised thyroid function with significantly higher circulating TT4 and more active thyroid glands in 2013. The OS2 chicks had less active thyroid glands, which conceivably contributed to their suppressed growth (previously reported) relative to the heavier OS1 nestlings with more active thyroid glands. Thyroid gland activity was more influenced by the chicks' accumulation of (muscle), than exposure (feces) to naphthalene, C2-naphthalenes, and C1-fluorenes. Of four major volatile organic contaminants, sulfur dioxide (SO2) primarily influenced thyroid gland activity and structure, supporting previous findings with captive birds. When collectively considering environmental-thyroidal stressors, chicks had a greater thyroidal response when they experienced colder temperatures, accumulated more C2-naphthalenes, and consumed aquatic-emerging insects with higher PAC burdens than terrestrial insects (carbon (δ13C)). We hypothesize that the more active thyroid glands and higher circulating TT4 of the OS1 chicks supported their growth and survival despite having the highest PAC burdens, whereas the lack of thyroid response in the OS2 chicks combined with high PAC burdens, contributed to their smaller size, poorer condition and poorer survival.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aims of present study are to clarify the follow questions: 1) what constitutes paediatric chondrosarcoma?; 2) what are the effects of the demographic and tumour characteristics on survival in patients with paediatric chondrosarcoma?; 3) which prognostic factors of paediatric chondrosarcoma differ from those of the adult population, which have been reported previously? METHODS Paediatric patients who were diagnosed with chondrosarcoma were searched for using the case listing session protocol of the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results 18 databases (1973 to 2014). The extracted demographic information includes: age, race, gender, year of diagnosis, tumour sites, tumour histological subtype, grade, stage and treatment. RESULTS A total of 247 paediatric chondrosarcoma patients were extracted and included in our present study. We find that the paediatric patients have significantly better survival rates than the adult patients. The year of diagnosis, tumour sites, tumour histological subtype, grade, stage and surgery received are independent prognostic factors for the survival rate of paediatric chondrosarcoma patients, but race, gender and age are not. CONCLUSION The paediatric chondrosarcoma patients have better survival rates than the adults. Paediatric patients with a diagnosis at an early age, tumour site at the vertebral column and pelvis/sacrococcyx, myxoid variants, high grade, distant stage and who did not have surgery have a poorer prognosis than patients with a diagnosis at a later age, tumour site at limbs, head and base, chondrosarcoma not otherwise specified, lower grade, localized stage and who received surgery. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE II -Prognostic Study.

Abstract
A hybrid experiment has been started by the ASγ experiment at Yangbajing (4300m a.s.l.) in Tibet since May 2009, that consists of a high-energy air-shower-core array (YAC-I) and a high-density air-shower array (Tibet-III). In this paper, we report our results to check the hadronic interaction models SIBYLL2.3, SIBYLL2.1, EPOS-LHC and QGSJETII-04 in the multi-tens TeV energy region using YAC-I+Tibet-III experimental data from May 2009 through January 2010. The effective live time is calculated as 106.05 days. The results show that the description of transverse momentum, inelastic cross-section and inelasticity for the 4 hadronic interaction models is consistent with YAC-I experimental data within 15% systematic errors range in the forward region below 100 TeV. Among them, the EPOS-LHC model is the best hadronic interaction model. Furthermore, we find that the H4a composition model is the best one below the 100 TeV energy region.

Abstract
A new hybrid experiment (YAC-II+Tibet-III+MD) located at Yangbajing has started to improve the capability of explicit measurements of the cosmic-ray components (P, He, CNO, Fe, etc) at the knee energy region since 2014. Considering the different features of air shower development for different primary cosmic-ray nuclei, using a full Monte Carlo simulation, we modified the lateral distribution functions for proton-induced, helium-induced and iron-induced air showers, respectively. The results show that the air shower size of different nuclei obtained by the modified Nishimura-Kamata-Greisen function is consistent with the true shower size within 5% systematic errors. Furthermore, we studied the Extensive Air Shower age parameter determination from the lateral distribution functions of charged particles near the air shower core with the Tibet hybrid experiment. The derived age parameter can be well used to estimate the particle type of the incident primary cosmic rays.

Abstract
We analyze the temporal variation of the solar diurnal anisotropy of the multi-TeV cosmic-ray intensity observed with the Tibet air shower array from 2000 to 2009, covering the maximum and minimum of the 23rd solar cycle. We comfirm that a remarkable additional anisotropy component is superposed on the Compton-Getting anisotropy at 4.0 TeV, while its amplitude decreases at higher energy regions. In constrast to the additional anisotropy reported by the Matsushiro experiment at 0.6 TeV, we find the residual component measured by Tibet at multi-TeV energies is consistent with being stable, with a fairly constant amplitude of 0.041% ± 0.003% and a phase at around 07.17 ± 00.16 local solar time at 4.0 TeV. This suggests the additional anisotropy observed by the Tibet experiment could result from mechanisms unrelated to solar activities.
