Abstract
Aims: the study aimed to (i) use adeno-associated virus technology to modulate parvalbumin (PV) gene expression, both through overexpression and silencing, within the hippocampus of male mice and (ii) assess the impact of PV on the metabolic pathway of glutamate and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Methods: a status epilepticus (SE) mouse model was established by injecting kainic acid into the hippocampus of transgenic mice. When the seizures of mice reached SE, the mice were killed at that time point and 30 min after the onset of SE. Hippocampal tissues were extracted and the mRNA and protein levels of PV and the 65 kDa (GAD65) and 67 kDa (GAD67) isoforms of glutamate decarboxylase were assessed using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western blot, respectively. The concentrations of glutamate and GABA were detected with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the intracellular calcium concentration was detected using flow cytometry. Results: we demonstrate that the expression of PV is associated with GAD65 and GAD67 and that PV regulates the levels of GAD65 and GAD67. PV was correlated with calcium concentration and GAD expression. Interestingly, PV overexpression resulted in a reduction in calcium ion concentration, upregulation of GAD65 and GAD67, elevation of GABA concentration, reduction in glutamate concentration, and an extension of seizure latency. Conversely, PV silencing induced the opposite effects. Conclusion: parvalbumin may affect the expression of GAD65 and GAD67 by regulating calcium ion concentration, thereby affecting the metabolic pathways associated with glutamate and GABA. In turn, this contributes to the regulation of seizure activity.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the imaging factors associated with postoperative cerebral infarction in adult patients aged 18 and above with ischemic Moyamoya disease. Methods: The clinical data of adult patients who underwent surgeries for ischemic Moyamoya disease in the Department of Neurosurgery at Peking University International Hospital from October 2015 to October 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Of the 239 patients, 120 were male and 119 were female, with ages ranging from 18 to 63 (41.7±10.3) years. A total of 239 patients(290 cases) underwent direct and indirect combined revascularization (CR).Gender, age, surgical side, preoperative transient ischemic attack (TIA), presence of old cerebral infarction, and imaging features were compared between the patients with (48 cases) and without (242 cases) cerebral infarction within 1 week after surgery. Multivariate logistic binary regression model was used to analyze the imaging risk factors of postoperative cerebral infarction. Results: Cerebral infarction occurred in 48 cases(16.5%) among the 290 CR group within 1 week after surgery. The proportion of patients with TIA, old cerebral infarction, ICA stenosis, A1 segment stenosis, M1 segment stenosis, abnormal posterior cerebral artery (PCA), and unstable compensation before CR in the cerebral infarction group was higher than that in the non-cerebral infarction group (P<0.05).Preoperative TIA (OR=4.514, 95%CI: 1.920-10.611), old cerebral infarction (OR=2.856,95%CI:1.176-6.936), A1 stenosis (OR=7.027,95%CI:1.877-26.308), M1 stenosis (OR=6.968,95%CI:2.162-22.459), abnormal PCA (OR=4.114,95%CI:1.330-12.728)and unstable compensation (OR=4.488,95%CI:1.194-16.865) were risk factors for cerebral infarction after CR surgery (all P<0.05). Conclusion: Among the imaging factors, TIA, old cerebral infarction, A1 stenosis, M1 stenosis, abnormal PCA and unstable compensation were risk factors for cerebral infarction in adult patients with ischemic Moyamoya disease treated by combined revascularization.

Abstract
Objectives: To assess the efficacy of cord blood-assisted haploid peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (haplo-cord-PBSCT) versus unrelated donor peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (UD-PBSCT) in the treatment of malignant hematological diseases. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on one hundred and four patients with malignant hematological diseases who underwent haplo-cord-PBSCT and fifty-two patients who underwent UD-PBSCT at Xiangya Hospital of Central South University between January 2016 and December 2021. Results: ①The median implantation time for neutrophils in the haplo-cord-PBSCT and UD-PBSCT groups was 13 (9-22) days and 13 (10-24) days, respectively (P=0.834), whereas the median implantation time for platelets was 15 (7-103) days and 14 (8-38) days, respectively (P=0.816). The cumulative implantation rate of neutrophils at 30 days after transplantation in the haplo-cord-PBSCT group and the UD-PBSCT group was 100% (P=0.314), and the cumulative platelet implantation rate at 100 days after transplantation was 95.2% (95% CI 88.3% - 98.1% ) and 100% (P=0.927), respectively. 30 days after transplantation, both groups of patients achieved complete donor chimerism, and no umbilical cord blood stem cells were implanted. ②The cumulative incidence rates of grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ acute GVHD within 100 days after transplantation in the haplo-cord-PBSCT group and the UD-PBSCT group were 29.1% (95% CI 20.1% -38.1% ) and 28.8% (95% CI 17.2% -41.6% (P=0.965), respectively. The cumulative incidence rates of grade Ⅲ/Ⅳ acute GVHD were 7.8% (95% CI 3.6% -14.0% ) and 9.6% (95% CI 3.5% -19.5% ) (P=0.725). The cumulative incidence rates of 2-year chronic GVHD in the haplo-cord-PBSCT group and the UD-PBSCT group were 45.3% (95% CI 36.1% -56.1% ) and 35.1% (95% CI 21.6% -44.1% ), respectively (P=0.237). The cumulative incidence rates of severe chronic GVHD at 2 years after transplantation were 13.6% (95% CI 7.6% -21.3% ) and 12.9% (95% CI 5.1% -24.3% ), respectively (P=0.840). ③The 2-year CIR after transplantation in the haplo-cord-PBSCT group and UD-PBSCT group were 12.8% (95% CI 7.0% -20.5% ) and 10.0% (95% CI 3.6% -20.2% ), respectively (P=0.341), and the NRM were 14.7% (95% CI 8.4% -22.6% ) and 16.2% (95% CI 7.4% -28.0% ), respectively (P=0.681). ④The 2-year OS rates in the haplo-cord-PBSCT and UD-PBSCT groups after transplantation were 82.2% (95% CI 74.8% -90.3% ) and 75.5% (95% CI 64.2% -88.7% ), respectively (P=0.276). The 2-year DFS rates were 69.9% (95% CI 61.2% -79.8% ) and 73.8% (95% CI 62.4% -87.3% ), respectively (P=0.551). The 2-year rates of GVHD-free/recurrence-free survival (GRFS) were 55.3% (95% CI 44.8% -64.8% ) and 64.7% (95% CI 52.8% -79.3% ), respectively (P=0.284) . Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that haplo-cord-PBSCT and UD-PBSCT have comparable efficacy and safety in the treatment of malignant hematological diseases and can be used as an alternative treatment options.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is growing evidence indicating a connection between fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and depressive symptoms. Metabolic risk factors are critical determinants of depressive symptoms. However, the mediating role of these factors on the association between PM2.5 and depressive symptoms remains elusive. We aimed to investigate whether and to what extent metabolic risk factors mediated the link between long-term PM2.5 exposure and depressive symptoms. METHODS This study comprised 7794 individuals aged between 30 and 79 years who participated in two waves of the on-site surveys in the China Multi-Ethnic Cohort. Ambient PM2.5 concentrations were assessed utilizing a random forest method based on satellite data. We employed the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 to assess depressive symptoms at wave 2, and the overall as well as three sub-domain symptom scores (emotional, neurovegetative, and neurocognitive symptoms) were calculated. Three metabolic risk factors, including hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia, were considered. Mediation analyses were conducted to assess the indirect effects of PM2.5 on depressive symptoms through metabolic risk factors. RESULTS We found a positive association between chronic exposure to ambient PM2.5 and overall depressive symptoms as well as the three sub-domains. In mediation analyses, metabolic risk factors partially mediated the associations of PM2.5 on depressive symptoms. The natural indirect effects (RR, 95% CI) of PM2.5 on overall, emotional, neurovegetative, and neurocognitive symptoms mediated through metabolic risk factors were 1.004(1.001, 1.007), 1.004 (1.001, 1.008), 1.004 (1.001, 1.007), and 1.003(0.999, 1.007), respectively. Larger indirect effects were found in elderly participants (mediated proportion, 29.3%), females (13.3%), and people who did not consume alcohol (19.6%). CONCLUSIONS Metabolic risk factors may act as mediators in the relationship between chronic PM2.5 exposure and depression. Treatment of metabolic risk factors may be an opportunity to reduce the burden of depression caused by long-term exposure to PM2.5.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) possess a strong therapeutic potential in regenerative medicine. ELABELA (ELA) is a 32 amino acid peptide that binds to the apelin peptide jejunum receptor (APJ) to regulate cell proliferation and migration. The aim of this study was to investigate the function of ELA vis-a-vis the MSC proliferation and migration, and further explore the underlying mechanism. We demonstrated that the exogenous supplement of ELA boosts the proliferation and migration ability of MSCs, alongside improved in vitro cell viability. These capabilities were rendered moot upon APJ knockdown. In addition, ELA (5-20 μM) was shown to upregulate the expression of METTL3 in a concentrationdependent pattern, a capacity which was suppressed by APJ reduction, whereas the downregulation of METTL3 expression blocked the beneficial effects induced by ELA. ELA was also observed to upregulate the phosphorylation level of AKT. This ELA-induced activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway, however, is inhibited with knockdown of METTL3. Our data indicate that ELA could act as a promoter of MSC proliferation and migration in vitro through the APJ receptor, something which might be attributed to the activation of the METTL3/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Therefore, ELA is a candidate for optimizing MSC-based cell therapy, while METTL3 is a potential target for its promoting action on MSCs.

Abstract
It is of great importance to uncover causal biomarkers to gain insight into the pathogenesis of oral diseases and identify novel treatment targets for prevention and treatment thereof. This study aimed to systematically evaluate the causal effects of hundreds of metabolites on 10 dental traits using a 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach. Genetic variants from genome-wide association studies of 309 known metabolites were used as instrumental variables. We selected 10 dental traits, including clinical measures of dental diseases, from the Gene-Lifestyle Interactions in Dental Endpoints Consortium and self-reported oral health data from the UK Biobank. The causal relationships between metabolites and dental traits were inferred using the inverse variance-weighted approach and further controlled for horizontal pleiotropy using 5 additional MR methods. After correcting for multiple tests, 5 metabolites were identified as causal biomarkers. Genetically predicted increased levels of mannose were associated with lower risk of bleeding gums (odds ratio [OR] = 0.72; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.61-0.85; P = 9.9 × 10-5). MR also indicated 4 metabolites on the causal pathway to dentures, with fructose (OR = 0.50; 95% CI, 0.36-0.70; P = 5.2 × 10-5) and 1-palmitoleoyl-glycerophosphocholine (OR = 0.67; 95% CI, 0.56-0.81; P = 4.8 × 10-5) as potential protective factors and glycine (OR = 1.22; 95% CI, 1.11-1.35; P = 5.6×10-5) and 1,5-anhydroglucitol (OR = 1.32; 95% CI, 1.14-1.52; P = 1.5 × 10-4) as risk factors. The causal associations were robust in various sensitivity analyses. We further observed some shared metabolites among different dental traits, implying similar biological mechanisms underlying the pathogenic processes. Finally, the pathway analysis revealed several significant metabolic pathways that may be involved in the development of dental disorders. Our study provides novel insights into the combination of metabolomics and genomics to reveal the pathogenesis of and therapeutic strategies for dental disorders. It highlighted 5 metabolites and several pathways as causal candidates, warranting further investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: TB-related stigma contributes to poor clinical outcomes and reduced wellbeing for affected individuals. Adolescents may be particularly susceptible to TB-related stigma due to their heightened sensitivity to peer acceptance, yet few studies have evaluated TB-related stigma in this group. Without a validated scale, it remains challenging to measure TB-related stigma in adolescents.METHODS: We adapted and validated the Van Rie TB Stigma Scale (VTSS) for adolescents on treatment for rifampicin-susceptible TB in Lima, Peru. The modified stigma scale was administered within a larger survey, which measured other psychosocial factors, including depression, adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), and social support. Data analysis included factor analysis, internal consistency, and convergent validity.RESULTS: From October 2020 to September 2021, 249 adolescents (individuals aged 10-19 years) completed the survey. Preliminary confirmatory factor analysis led to removal of two items. The final 10-item scale demonstrated good internal consistency (Cronbach's α = 0.82) and adequate model fit (χ²/df = 2.0; root mean square error of approximation: 0.06; comparative fit index: 0.94; Tucker-Lewis Index: 0.92: standardized root mean square residual: 0.05). Stigma was positively correlated with ACEs (γ = 0.13), depression (γ = 0.39), and suicidal ideation (γ = 0.27), and negatively correlated with social support (γ = -0.19).CONCLUSION: This adolescent TB stigma scale may serve as a practical tool to measure TB-related stigma and evaluate the impact of stigma-reduction interventions in adolescents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exposure to particulate matter with aerodynamic diameters less than 2.5 µm (PM2.5) may increase the risk of 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk. While PM2.5 is comprised of various components, the evidence on the correlation of its components with 10-year ASCVD risk and which component contributes most remains limited. METHODS Data were derived from the baseline assessments of China Multi-Ethnic Cohort (CMEC). In total, 69,722 individuals aged 35-74 years were included into this study. The annual average concentration of PM2.5 and its components (black carbon, ammonium, nitrate, sulfate, organic matter, soil particles, and sea salt) were estimated by satellite remote sensing and chemical transport models. The ASCVD risk of individuals was calculated by the equations from the China-PAR Project (prediction for ASCVD risk in China). The relationship between single exposure to PM2.5 and its components and predicted 10-year ASCVD risk was assessed using the logistic regression model. The effect of joint exposure was estimated, and the most significant contributor was identified using the weighted quantile sum approach. RESULTS Totally 69,722 participants were included, of which 95.8 % and 4.2 % had low and high 10-year ASCVD risk, respectively. Per standard deviation increases in the 3-year average concentration of PM2.5 mass (odds ratio [OR] 1.23, 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 1.12-1.35), black carbon (1.21, 1.11-1.33), ammonium (1.21, 1.10-1.32), nitrate (1.25, 1.14-1.38), organic matter (1.29, 1.18-1.42), sulfate (1.17, 1.07-1.28), and soil particles (1.15, 1.04-1.26) were related to high 10-year ASCVD risk. The overall effect (1.19, 1.11-1.28) of the PM2.5 components was positively associated with 10-year ASCVD risk, and organic matter had the most contribution to this relationship. Female participants were more significantly impacted by PM2.5, black carbon, ammonium, nitrate, organic matter, sulfate, and soil particles compared to others. CONCLUSION Long-term exposure to PM2.5 mass, black carbon, ammonium, nitrate, organic matter, sulfate, and soil particles were positively associated with high 10-year ASCVD risk, while sea salt exhibited a protective effect. Moreover, the organic matter might take primary responsibility for the relationship between PM2.5 and 10-year ASCVD risk. Females were more susceptible to the adverse effect.

Abstract
Background Anemia is linked to PM2.5 (particulate matter with aerodynamic diameters of ⩽2.5 μm) exposure, which can increase the risk of various negative health outcomes. It remains unclear which PM2.5 components are associated with anemia and the respective contribution of each component to this association. Objective This study aimed at investigating the association between PM2.5 and anemia in the general population and to identify the most critical PM2.5 toxic components in this association. Design Cross-sectional study. Methods Our study involved a large cohort of 73,511 individuals aged 30-79 from China's multi-ethnic population. We employed satellite observations and the chemical transport model (GEOS-Chem)to estimate the long-term exposure to PM2.5 and its components. Anemia was defined, according to WHO guidelines, as Hb levels below 130 g/L for men and below 120 g/L for women. Through logistic regression, we investigated the association between PM2.5 components and anemia. By utilizing weighted quantile sum (WQS) analysis, we identified key components and gained insights into their combined impact on anemia. Overall, our study sheds light on the relationship between PM2.5 exposure, its constituents, and the risk of anemia in a large cohort. Results PM2.5 and three components, nitrate (NIT), organic matter (OM), and soil particles (SOIL), were associated with anemia. Per-standard deviation increase in the 3-year average concentrations of PM2.5 [odds ratio (OR): 1.14, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.01, 1.28], NIT (1.20, 1.06, 1.35), OM (1.17, 1.04, 1.32), and SOIL (1.22, 1.11, 1.33) were associated with higher odds of anemia. In WQS regression analysis, the WQS index was associated with anemia (OR: 1.29, 95% CI: 1.13, 1.47). SOIL has the highest weight among all PM2.5 components. Conclusions Long-term exposure to PM2.5 and its constituents is associated with anemia. Moreover, SOIL might be the most critical component of the relationship between PM2.5 and anemia. Our research increases the evidence of the association between PM2.5 and anemia in the general population, and targeted emission control measures should be taken into consideration to mitigate the adverse effects of PM2.5-related anemia.

Abstract
The synthesis of efficient and sustainable heterogeneous Pd-based catalysts has been an active field of research due to their crucial role in carbon-carbon coupling reactions. In this study, we developed a facile and eco-friendly in situ assembly technique to produce a PdFe bimetallic hyper-crosslinked polymer (HCP@Pd/Fe) to use as a highly active and durable catalyst in the Ullmann reaction. The HCP@Pd/Fe catalyst exhibits a hierarchical pore structure, high specific surface area, and uniform distribution of active sites, which promote catalytic activity and stability. Under mild conditions, the HCP@Pd/Fe catalyst is capable of efficiently catalyzing the Ullmann reaction of aryl chlorides in aqueous media. The exceptional catalytic performance of HCP@Pd/Fe is attributed to its robust absorption capability, high dispersion, and strong interaction between Fe and Pd, as confirmed by various material characterizations and control experiments. Furthermore, the coated structure of a hyper-crosslinked polymer enables easy recycling and reuse of the catalyst for at least 10 cycles without any significant loss of activity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Evidence of the effectiveness of the WHO-recommended design of longer individualized regimens for multidrug- or rifampicin-resistant TB (MDR/RR-TB) is limited.OBJECTIVES: To report end-of-treatment outcomes for MDR/RR-TB patients from a 2015-2018 multi-country cohort that received a regimen consistent with current 2022 WHO updated recommendations and describe the complexities of comparing regimens.METHODS: We analyzed a subset of participants from the endTB Observational Study who initiated a longer MDR/RR-TB regimen that was consistent with subsequent 2022 WHO guidance on regimen design for longer treatments. We excluded individuals who received an injectable agent or who received fewer than four likely effective drugs.RESULTS: Of the 759 participants analyzed, 607 (80.0%, 95% CI 77.0-82.7) experienced successful end-of-treatment outcomes. The frequency of success was high across groups, whether stratified on number of Group A drugs or fluoroquinolone resistance, and ranged from 72.1% to 90.0%. Regimens were highly variable regarding composition and the duration of individual drugs.CONCLUSIONS: Longer, all-oral, individualized regimens that were consistent with 2022 WHO guidance on regimen design had high frequencies of treatment success. Heterogeneous regimen compositions and drug durations precluded meaningful comparisons. Future research should examine which combinations of drugs maximize safety/tolerability and effectiveness.

Abstract
A class of piperazine hybridized coumarin indolylcyanoenones was exploited as new structural antibacterial frameworks to combat intractable bacterial resistance. Bioactive assessment discovered that 4-chlorobenzyl derivative 11f showed a prominent inhibition on Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853 with a low MIC of 1 μg/mL, which was four-fold more effective than norfloxacin. Importantly, the highly active 11f with inconspicuous hemolysis towards human red blood cells displayed quite low proneness to trigger bacterial resistance. Preliminary explorations on its antibacterial behavior disclosed that 11f possessed the ability to destroy bacterial cell membrane, leading to increased permeability of inner and outer membranes, the depolarization and fracture of membrane, and the effusion of intracellular components. Furthermore, bacterial oxidative stress and metabolic turbulence aroused by 11f also accelerated bacterial apoptosis. In particular, 11f could not only effectively inset into DNA, but also bind with DNA gyrase through forming supramolecular complex, thereby affecting the biological function of DNA. The above findings of new piperazine hybridized coumarin indolylcyanoenones provided an inspired possibility for the treatment of resistant bacterial infections.

Abstract
Parvalbumin-expressing neurons are a type of inhibitory intermediate neuron that play an important role in terminating seizures. The aim of the present study was to use lentiviral construction and packaging technology to overexpress and silence the parvalbumin gene in pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells, and to evaluate how parvalbumin influences the metabolic pathway involving glutamate and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). In this work, Immunofluorescence staining was used to verify the differentiation of PC12 cells into neurons after adding nerve growth factor (NGF). Western blotting and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) were used to confirm lentivirus-mediated knockdown or overexpression of parvalbumin. Expression of parvalbumin, the 65-kDa GAD isoform (GAD65), and the 67-kDa GAD isoform (GAD67) in neuronal cells was examined at the mRNA and protein levels using qRT-PCR, western blotting and immunofluorescence staining, while intracellular glutamate and GABA levels were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). We demonstrate that the expression of parvalbumin is associated with GAD65 and GAD67. Interestingly, overexpression of parvalbumin up-regulated GAD65 and GAD67, increased GABA concentration, and decreased glutamate concentration. Silencing of parvalbumin led to the opposite effects. Altogether, parvalbumin affected the expression of GAD65 and GAD67, thereby influencing the metabolic pathway involving glutamate and GABA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: The WHO provides standardized outcome definitions for rifampicin-resistant (RR) and multidrug-resistant (MDR) TB. However, operationalizing these definitions can be challenging in some clinical settings, and incorrect classification may generate bias in reporting and research. Outcomes calculated by algorithms can increase standardization and be adapted to suit the research question. We evaluated concordance between clinician-assigned treatment outcomes and outcomes calculated based on one of two standardized algorithms, one which identified failure at its earliest possible recurrence (i.e., failure-dominant algorithm), and one which calculated the outcome based on culture results at the end of treatment, regardless of early occurrence of failure (i.e., success-dominant algorithm).METHODS: Among 2,525 patients enrolled in the multi-country endTB observational study, we calculated the frequencies of concordance using cross-tabulations of clinician-assigned and algorithm-assigned outcomes. We summarized the common discrepancies.RESULTS: Treatment success calculated by algorithms had high concordance with treatment success assigned by clinicians (95.8 and 97.7% for failure-dominant and success-dominant algorithms, respectively). The frequency and pattern of the most common discrepancies varied by country.CONCLUSION: High concordance was found between clinician-assigned and algorithm-assigned outcomes. Heterogeneity in discrepancies across settings suggests that using algorithms to calculate outcomes may minimize bias.

Abstract
Previous studies assessing adverse health have traditionally focused on a single environmental exposure, failing to reflect the reality of various exposures present simultaneously. Air pollution, ambient temperature and greenness have been proposed as critical environmental factors associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS). However, evidence exploring their joint relationships with MetS is needed for identifying interactive factors and developing more targeted public health interventions. The baseline data was obtained from China Multi-Ethnic Cohort (CMEC). Environmental data of air pollutants (PM2.5, O3) and NDVI for greenness was calculated from satellites data. Ambient temperature data were obtained from European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). MetS was classified based on National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP ATP III) using anthropometric measures and biomarkers. Logistic regression models were utilized to examine the combined relationship of MetS with three-year exposure to air pollutants, temperature and NDVI. Relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI) was calculated to evaluate interaction on an additive scale. We found associations between prevalent MetS and interquartile range (IQR) increases in PM2.5 (OR: 1.38; 95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 1.23, 1.55) and O3 (OR: 1.15; 95% CI: 1.09, 1.22). Additive and multiplicative interactions were observed between air pollutants and temperature exposure. Compared to low-temperature level, the relationship between PM2.5 and MetS attenuated (RERI: 0.22, 95% CI: 0.44, -0.04) at high-temperature level, while the relationship between O3 and MetS enhanced (RERI: 0.05, 95% CI: 0.02, 0.11). At low NDVI 250 m, the association between PM2.5 and MetS was stronger (RERI: 0.13, 95% CI: 0.05, 0.19) with high NDVI 250 m as the reference group. Our findings showed that ambient temperature and residential greenness could affect the relationship between air pollutants and MetS.

Abstract
CONTEXT Recent studies in specific population subgroups (e.g., pregnant women) have suggested PM exposure increases the risk of hyperuricemia. However, no studies have examined this in the general population. Furthermore, the underlying mechanism through which PM impacts hyperuricemia risk is poorly understood. OBJECTIVE To assess the association between long-term exposure to PM and risk of hyperuricemia and whether this association is mediated by lipid profile. METHODS We included 5939 participants in Southwest China from the China Multi-Ethnic Cohort (baseline 2018-2019, follow-up 2020-2021). Long-term PM pollutants (PM1, PM2.5, PM10) exposure for each individual was represented by the three-year average PM levels before the baseline survey. Hyperuricemia at follow-up was defined as the serum uric acid above 7.0 mg/dL in men and 6.0 mg/dL in women. Serum lipids were measured at baseline including total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and triglycerides (TG). The association of PM with hyperuricemia was accessed through logistic regression. The potential mediation effects of serum lipids were evaluated through causal mediation analyses. RESULTS A total of 837 participants were newly diagnosed with hyperuricemia. The odds ratios of hyperuricemia associated with an interquartile range (IQR) increase in PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 (IQR: 21.10, 25.78, 30.43 μg m-3) were 1.72 (95% CI: 1.23, 2.39), 2.68 (95% CI: 1.59, 4.49), and 1.81 (95% CI: 1.20, 2.72), respectively. The association between PM2.5, PM1, and PM10 on hyperuricemia was mediated by HDL-C (10%) and LDL-C (3%). CONCLUSION Higher particulate matter exposure was associated with higher hyperuricemia incidence. The decline in HDL-C and rise in LDL-C partially mediated this association. These findings were conducive to scientific research about the underlying mechanism of PM on hyperuricemia.

Abstract
CONTEXT Particulate matter (PM) is an important risk factor for diabetes. However, its underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Although liver-derived biological intermediates may play irreplaceable roles in the pathophysiology of diabetes, few studies have explored this in the association between PM and diabetes. OBJECTIVE We investigated the role of liver enzymes in mediating the relationship between PM exposure and diabetes. METHODS We included a total of 7963 participants from the China Multi-Ethnic Cohort. Residential exposure to PM was assessed using a validated spatial-temporal assessment method. Diabetes was diagnosed according to the criteria from American Diabetes Association. Associations between PM, liver enzyme [including alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT)], and diabetes were estimated using multivariable regression models. The function of liver enzymes in the relationship between PM and diabetes was assessed using mediation analysis. RESULTS PM exposure was positively associated with the odds of diabetes, with odds ratios of 1.32 (95% CI 0.83, 2.09), 1.33 (95% CI 1.07, 1.65), and 1.18 (95% CI 1.02, 1.36) for every 10-μg/m3 increment in ≤1 μm (PM1), ≤2.5 μm (PM2.5), and ≤10 μm (PM10) PM, respectively. ALT (4.47%) and GGT (4.78%) exhibited statistically significant mediation effects on the association between PM2.5 and diabetes, and the ALT (4.30%) also had a mediating role on PM10. However, none of the liver enzymes had a significant mediating effect on PM1. CONCLUSION The relationship between PM and diabetes is partially mediated by liver enzymes, suggesting that lipid accumulation, oxidative stress, and chronic inflammation in the liver may be involved in its pathogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited studies have examined associations between air pollutants exposure and renal function, especially in China, with the most extensive chronic kidney disease (CKD) disease burden worldwide. OBJECTIVES This study examines associations between long-term exposure to ambient PM2.5, NO2, CO, O3, SO2 and renal function. METHODS We included 80,225 participants aged 30-79 years from the baseline data of the China Multi-Ethnic Cohort (CMEC) study. Three-year average concentrations of PM2.5, NO2, CO, O3, and SO2 were estimated using satellite-based spatiotemporal models. Renal function is determined by the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) using Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation. After adjusting for covariates, generalized propensity scores (GPS) weighting regression was used to estimate associations between ambient air pollutants and renal function. RESULTS An increase of 0.1 mg/m3 CO (OR [odds ratio] =1.20 95% CI [confidence interval], 1.05-1.37) was positively associated with CKD. An increase of 1 μg/m3 in SO2 (1.07, 1.00-1.14) concentration was positively associated with CKD. An increase of 10 μg/m3 in PM2.5 (1.17, 0.99-1.38), NO2 (1.12, 0.83-1.51) and O3 (1.10, 0.81-1.50) concentration was not associated with CKD. These effects are stronger in those younger than 65, smoking and with low BMI. CONCLUSIONS In this study, we found that long-term exposure to ambient CO and SO2 were positively associated with CKD. Gaseous pollutants should also arouse the concern of relevant departments.

Abstract
Background During the obturation procedure, sealer extrusion occurs in some cases. iRoot SP is a kind of bioceramic sealer with superior physicochemical and biological properties. This article reports the outcome of iRoot SP extrusion in root canal treatment and the potential factors associated with the outcome. Methods Ninety-nine patients and one hundred and eighty-five teeth treated between 2014 and 2020 were included in this retrospective study. All of the cases were filled with a single-cone technique and the iRoot SP sealer. The minimum follow-up visit period was 1 year. The outcome was evaluated by clinical examination and radiographic examination at recall and was classified as healed, healing (success), or not healed (failure). Results The overall success rate of all teeth was 96.8%. The success rate of adequately filled teeth was 97.3%, while that of iRoot SP extrusion was 95.8%; the difference was not statistically significant. Factors such as gender, age, tooth position, follow-up visit period, size of periapical lesion, treatment type and extruding sealer amount had no influence on the outcome of iRoot SP extruded teeth. Conclusions The results suggested that iRoot SP extrusion has no adverse effect on the outcome of root canal treatment, which may contribute to the endodontic treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Using college psychological resources, this paper attempts to intervene in the family psychology of middle school students learning at home during the epidemic in northern Guangdong. Focusing on the impact of family system on the psychological health status of middle school students learning at home, it provides reference for targeted family psychological intervention and treatment of students. SUBJECTS AND METHODS The "Psychological Health Survey Questions for Middle School Students Learning at Home during the Epidemic" was compiled to conduct a class-based random sampling survey of primary and secondary schools in northern Guangdong. Family psychological intervention is provided for key groups. RESULTS (1) The middle school students' psychological health level was above average on the whole, but with great individual differences. (2) Families have a significant impact on students' psychological health, among which parents' occupation, family integrity, family economy, family atmosphere, and the number of children in the family all exert a significant impact on middle school students' psychological health. (3) Stepwise regression analysis reveals that the six factors of gender, grade, ethnicity and place of residence, family economy and atmosphere in the family environment system are included in the regression equation, explaining 11.6% of middle school students' psychological health. (4) Family psychological intervention significantly improves middle school students' psychological health. CONCLUSIONS Local colleges' interference in middle school students' family psychological intervention can effectively improve psychological health of middle school students learning at home. Society, families and schools should value family psychological construction, and effectively unite social forces to jointly promote students' psychological health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the flow diverter has advantages in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms, pooled studies that directly compare it with conventional endovascular treatments are rare. PURPOSE Our aim was to compare the safety and efficacy of flow-diverter and conventional endovascular treatments in intracranial aneurysms. DATA SOURCES We performed a comprehensive search of the literature using PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Database. STUDY SELECTION We included only studies that directly compared the angiographic and clinical outcomes of flow-diverter and conventional endovascular treatments. DATA ANALYSIS Random effects or fixed effects meta-analysis was used to pool the cumulative rate of short- and long-term angiographic and clinical outcomes. DATA SYNTHESIS Eighteen studies with 1001 patients with flow diverters and 1133 patients with conventional endovascular treatments were included; 1015 and 1201 aneurysm procedures were performed, respectively. The flow-diverter group had aneurysms of a larger size (standard mean difference, 0.22; 95% CI, 0.03-0.41; P = .026). There was a higher risk of complications in the flow-diverter group compared with the conventional endovascular group (OR, 1.4; 95% CI, 1.01-1.96; P = .045) during procedures. The follow-up angiographic results of flow-diverter treatment indicated a higher rate of complete occlusion (OR, 2.55; 95% CI, 1.70-3.83; P < .001) and lower rates of recurrence (OR, 0.24; 95% CI, 0.12-0.46; P < .001) and retreatment (OR, 0.31; 95% CI, 0.21-0.47; P < .001). LIMITATIONS Limitations include a retrospective, observational design in some studies, high heterogeneity, and selection bias. CONCLUSIONS Compared with the conventional endovascular treatments, the placement of a flow diverter may lead to more procedure-related complications, but there is no difference in safety, and it is more effective in the long term.

Objective: To study the effects of specific isoforms of classic protein kinase C (cPKCs) on hypoxia-induced proliferation and the expression of ERK1/2 and Akt using drug intervention or virus transfection in vitro. Methods: Dynal MPC-1 magnetic particle concentrator was used to separate iron-containing pulmonary arterioles fragments, and the pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) were primary cultured and identified. The cells were intervened by PKC agonist (PMA), PKCα inhibitor (safingol), PKCβⅠ inhibitor (Go6976) and PKCβⅡ inhibitor (LY333531) respectively, and the changes in protein expressions of cPKCs, and the phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2 and Akt were observed by immunoblotting under the condition of normal oxygen or hypoxia. The lentiviral vectors of PKCα and PKCβ were used to specifically knock-down the activity of target genes by virus transfection techniques, and Western blotting was used to observe the protein expressions of cPKCs, and the phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2 and Akt in hypoxia-induced PASMCs in mice. Results: With Brdu method, the proliferation of PASMCs induced by hypoxia was significantly inhibited by safingol, Go6976 and LY333531 by inhibiting cPKCα, βⅠ and βⅡ respectively. Compared with the hypoxic control group, the rates of Brdu positive cells were (7.35±0.26)% vs (11.28±0.43)%, (3.76±0.25)% vs (7.98±0.28)% and (4.12±0.46)% vs (7.78±0.53)%. We also observed that PMA could significantly promote the proliferation of PASMCs under normoxic condition. Compared with the normoxia control group, the Brdu-positive cell rates were (9.65±0.47)% vs (6.34±0.52)%, (9.34±0.38)% vs (5.42±0.21)% and (7.78±0.53)% vs (4.12±0.46)%. In addition, after transfection with PKCα or PKCβ lentiviral vector, the proliferation of PASMCs was significantly lower in hypoxia transfection group than in the control group. The rates of Brdu positive cells were (3.58±0.54)% vs (5.97±0.63)%, respectively. Using Western blotting, we also observed that after being inhibited by safingol, Go6976 and LY333531 respectively, the phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2 and Akt in PASMCs induced by hypoxia was significantly lower than the control group. After using safingol, the phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2 and Akt were (0.56±0.07) vs (1.08±0.13) and (0.49±0.04) vs (0.97±0.08). After using Go6976, the phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2 and Akt were (0.41±0.09) vs (0.79±0.10) and (0.48±0.09) vs (0.82±0.16), after using LY333531, the phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2 and Akt were (0.42±0.03) vs (0.87±0.06) and (0.34±0.07) vs (0.78±0.05). While PMA could promote the phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2 and Akt under normoxic condition, 1.25±0.12 vs 0.41±0.07 and 0.98±0.06 vs 0.37±0.08, respectively. Using transfection technique to specifically knock down the expression of cPKCα and β, we found that under hypoxic conditions, transfection of PASMCs could significantly lower the phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2, its phosphorylation level was 0.29±0.06 vs 0.76±0.05, with no evident change in the phosphorylation levels of Akt. Conclusions: Hypoxia may lead to phosphorylation of ERK1/2 by promoting the protein expression of cPKCα, cPKCβⅠ and cPKCβⅡ respectively, which eventually induces abnormal proliferation of PASMCs from the distal pulmonary arteries, participating in the development of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) of the mice. Regulation of the expression of cPKCα, cPKCβⅠ and cPKCβⅡ may help to attenuate the formation of pulmonary vascular remodeling. Target therapy based on cPKCs is expected to be a new direction for HPH therapy in the future.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate white matter (WM) microstructural alterations and their relationship correlation with disease severity in anti-NMDA receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis. Multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA) was applied to discriminate between patients and healthy controls and explore potential imaging biomarkers. METHODS Thirty-two patients with anti-NMDAR encephalitis and 26 matched healthy controls underwent diffusion tensor imaging. Tract-based spatial statistics and atlas-based analysis were used to determine WM microstructural alterations between the two groups. MVPA, based on a machine-learning algorithm, was applied to classify patients and healthy controls. RESULTS Patients exhibited significantly reduced fractional anisotropy in the corpus callosum, fornix, cingulum, anterior limb of the internal capsule, and corona radiata. Moreover, mean diffusivity was increased in the anterior corona radiata and body of the corpus callosum. On the other hand, radial diffusivity was increased in the anterior limb of the internal capsule, cingulum, corpus callosum, corona radiata, and fornix. WM changes in the cingulum, fornix, and retrolenticular part of the internal capsule were correlated with disease severity. The accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of fractional anisotropy-based classification were each 78.33%, while they were 67.71, 65.83, and 70% for radial diffusivity. CONCLUSION Widespread WM lesions were detected in anti-NMDAR encephalitis. The correlation between WM abnormalities and disease severity suggests that these alterations may serve a key role in the pathophysiological mechanisms of anti-NMDAR encephalitis. The combination of tract-based spatial statistics and MVPA may provide more specific and complementary information at the group and individual levels.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Selenium plays an indispensable role in antioxidant and antiinflammation processes. Oxidative stress and inflammation have been hypothesized to be involved in the pathogenesis of cartilage degeneration. We sought to examine the association between plasma selenium levels and the prevalence of radiographic osteoarthritis (ROA). DESIGN A population-based cross-sectional study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS Individuals aged ≥ 50 years were retrieved from the Xiangya Osteoarthritis (XO) Study, a community-based study conducted among the residents of the rural areas of China. METHODS Plasma selenium concentration was measured by inductively coupled plasma-dynamic reaction cell-mass spectrometry. ROA was defined as Kellgren/Lawrence score ≥ 2 in at least one knee, hip or hand joint. The association between plasma selenium levels and ROA was evaluated by applying logistic and spline regression. RESULTS A total of 1,032 subjects (women: 52.5%; mean age: 63.1 years; ROA prevalence: 45.4%) were included. Compared with the highest tertile, the odds ratios (ORs) for ROA were 1.24 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.91 to 1.68) and 1.77 (95% CI: 1.31 to 2.40) in the middle and lowest tertile of plasma selenium, respectively (P for trend<0.05). The results were not changed materially with adjustment of potential confounders. In addition, subjects who had lower plasma selenium levels exhibited a higher prevalence of ROA in a dose-response relationship manner (P=0.005). CONCLUSION This study suggests that subjects with lower levels of plasma selenium exhibited a higher prevalence of ROA in a dose-response relationship manner. However, additional studies are still needed to verify the potential causal relationship.

Abstract
Cognitive deficits are among the most common comorbidities of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Ferroptosis associated with the accumulation of iron overload-dependent lipid peroxidation produces significant cognitive deficits in TLE. The anti-aging protein, klotho, has been shown to exert neuroprotective effects while enhancing cognition in neurodegenerative disorders. However, the role of klotho in TLE progression has not been established. In this study, we evaluated the effects and underlying mechanisms of klotho in a rat model of TLE induced by lithium-chloride and pilocarpine (LiCl-Pilo). The expression of klotho was found to be inhibited in the hippocampus following LiCl-Pilo induced TLE in rats. An adeno-virus (AAV), which mediated klotho overexpression (AAV-KL) was injected into the bilateral hippocampus of the rat models. After 3 weeks, rats were treated through intraperitoneal injections of LiCl-Pilo. After 9 weeks, AAV-KL was found to have significantly induced klotho overexpression in the hippocampus, effectively ameliorated cognitive deficits and exerted neuroprotective effects in LiCl-Pilo induced TLE rat models. Klotho significantly prevented ferroptosis and iron overload. Meanwhile, klotho regulated the expressions of divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT 1) and ferroportin (FPN) that were associated with iron accumulation in the hippocampus. Furthermore, klotho significantly elevated glutathione peroxidase-4 (GPX-4) and glutathione (GSH) levels while suppressed reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. In conclusion, klotho ameliorated cognitive deficits and exerted neuroprotective effects by inhibiting ferroptosis in LiCl-Pilo induced TLE rat models.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES There is still a large unmet need for novel osteoarthritis (OA) treatments that could provide clinically important effects on long-term pain relief (≥12 months). We examined the relation of bariatric surgery along with weight loss to analgesic prescription and all-cause mortality among individuals with OA. METHODS We conducted a cohort study among individuals with OA using The Health Improvement Network. We compared the rate of no analgesic prescription ≥12 consecutive months and the risk of all-cause mortality using inverse probability weighting Cox-proportional hazard models and the difference in number of analgesic prescriptions (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, opioids, and paracetamol) in the 50th, 75th and 90th percentiles using quantile regression model between bariatric and non-bariatric cohorts. RESULTS Included were 588,494 individuals (694 had bariatric surgery). Compared with non-bariatric group, the rate of no analgesic prescription ≥12 consecutive months was higher (HR = 1.23, 95% CI: 1.08-1.38) in bariatric surgery group, and the number of analgesic prescriptions was lower in the 75th (44 vs 58) and 90th (74 vs 106) percentiles during a mean follow-up of 4.3 years. All-cause mortality in bariatric surgery group was lower than comparison group (HR = 0.46, 95% CI: 0.41-0.51). CONCLUSION This study presents the first evidence that bariatric surgery was associated with decreased long-term analgesic prescription and decreased all-cause mortality among individuals with OA. However, our findings may be overestimated owing to intractable confounding by indication for bariatric surgery; thus, future studies (e.g., clinical trials) are warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Current global guidelines regarding the first-line analgesics (acetaminophen, topical or oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs [NSAIDs]) for knee osteoarthritis remain controversial and their comparative risk-benefit profiles have yet to be adequately assessed. DESIGN Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched from database inception to March 2021 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing acetaminophen, topical NSAIDs and oral NSAIDs directly or indirectly in knee osteoarthritis. Bayesian network meta-analyses were conducted. A propensity-score matched cohort study was also conducted among patients with knee osteoarthritis in The Health Improvement Network database. RESULTS 122 RCTs (47,113 participants) were networked. Topical NSAIDs were superior to acetaminophen (standardized mean difference [SMD] = -0.29, 95% credible interval [CrI]: -0.52 to -0.06) and not statistically different from oral NSAIDs (SMD = 0.03, 95% CrI: -0.16 to 0.22) for function. It had lower risk of gastrointestinal adverse effects (AEs) than acetaminophen (risk ratio [RR] = 0.52, 95%CrI: 0.35 to 0.76) and oral NSAIDs (RR = 0.46, 95%CrI: 0.34 to 0.61) in RCTs. In real-world data, topical NSAIDs showed lower risks of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.59, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.52 to 0.68), cardiovascular diseases (HR = 0.73, 95%CI: 0.63 to 0.85) and gastrointestinal bleeding (HR = 0.53, 95%CI: 0.41 to 0.69) than acetaminophen during the one-year follow-up (n = 22,158 participants/group). A better safety profile was also observed for topical than oral NSAIDs (n = 14,218 participants/group). CONCLUSIONS Topical NSAIDs are more effective than acetaminophen but not oral NSAIDs for function improvement in people with knee osteoarthritis. Topical NSAIDs are safer than acetaminophen or oral NSAIDs in trials and real-world data.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the clinical effect of oral contraceptive (OC) pretreatment on the outcome of gonadotropin releasing hormone antagonist (GnRH-a) protocol in patients with non-polycystic ovary syndrome. Methods: From January 2017 to May 2019, a total of 436 patients undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer/Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF-ET/ICSI) treatment in Peking University First Hospital reproductive center clinic were included in this retrospective cohort study. A total of 144 patients (147 cycles) used OC pretreatment prior to GnRH-a protocol and 292 patients (306 cycles) used GnRH-a protocol without OC pretreatment. The drug usage as well as pregnant outcomes between groups were examined. The primary outcome was the cumulative clinical pregnancy rate of oocyte retrieval cycle and the secondary outcome included the number of oocytes, MⅡ oocytes, embryos and clinical pregnancy rate of fresh embryo transfer cycle. Results: The median ages (and Q1, Q3) of OC pretreatment group and non-OC group were 33 (30,36) and 34 (30,38) years old, respectively. The number of MⅡ oocytes was higher in OC pretreatment group (7/9) than in non-OC group (6/8) (P=0.002). The significant difference were not found in the cumulative clinical pregnancy rate of each oocyte retrieval cycle (61.7% vs 54.6%), the clinical pregnancy rate of fresh embryo transfer cycle (34.4% vs 35.6%), and the number of oocytes (9 vs 8) and embryos (6 vs 6) between groups. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that compared to non-OC pretreatment group, pretreatment with OC is associated with more MⅡ oocytes, and with an increasing trend of the cumulative clinical pregnancy rate in non-polycystic ovary syndrome patients undergoing fresh IVF-ET/ICSI.

Abstract
Dendritic cell-derived exosomes have been proven to be efficient adjuvant options for anti-tumor vaccines in cancer immunotherapy. However, their potency in atherosclerosis remains unclear. Here we summarize the association of microRNA-203-3p (miR-203-3p) with dendritic cell-derived exosomes and atherosclerosis. Firstly, dendritic cell-derived exosomes and bone marrow-derived macrophages were isolated, after which expression of miR-203-3p and cathepsin S was determined. After the establishment of atherosclerosis mouse models, gain- and loss-of-function experiments were conducted for the analysis of effects of miR-203-3p and cathepsin S on foam-cell formation, lipid accumulation, collagen deposition and serum total cholesterol. The results found high expression of cathepsin S in atherosclerosis mice and downregulation of miR-203-3p in the serum of atherosclerosis patients and ox-LDL-simulated bone marrow-derived macrophages. Cathepsin S was the target gene of miR-203-3p. miR-203-3p transporting from exosomes to bone marrow-derived macrophages resulted in inhibition of cathepsin S expression and atherosclerosis-related phenotypes in bone marrow-derived macrophages, thus alleviating atherosclerosis in mice, and this process was found to involve the p38/MAPK signaling pathway. These findings provided evidence that the transfer of miR-203-3p by dendritic cell-derived exosomes targeted cathepsin S in bone marrow-derived macrophages to attenuate atherosclerosis progression in mice, serving as a promising clinical target for atherosclerosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dyslipidemia is a crucial risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Previous studies have suggested that air pollution is associated with blood lipids. However, little evidence exists in low- and middle-income regions. We aimed to investigate the association between air pollution and blood lipids in southwestern China. METHODS We included 67,305 participants aged 30-79 years from the baseline data of the China Multi-Ethnic Cohort (CMEC) study. Three-year average concentrations of particles with diameters ≤1 μm (PM1), particles with diameters ≤ 2.5 μm (PM2.5), particles with diameters ≤ 10 μm (PM10), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and ozone (O3) were estimated using satellite-based spatiotemporal models. Individual serum lipids, including cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), were measured. Linear, logistic, and quantile regression models were used to evaluate the association between ambient air pollution and blood lipids. RESULTS All five air pollutants in our study were associated with lipid levels. Increased air pollution exposure was associated with a high risk of dyslipidemia. Each 10 μg/m3 increase in PM2.5 was associated with 0.92% (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.64%, 1.20%), 2.23% (95% CI: 1.44%, 3.02%), and 3.04% (95% CI: 2.61%, 3.47%) increases in TC, TG, and LDL-C levels, respectively, and a 2.03% (95% CI: 1.69%, 2.37%) decrease in HDL-C levels, and high risks of dyslipidemia (OR = 1.14, 95% CI: 1.10, 1.18). Stronger associations of air pollution with blood lipids were found in participants with high lipid levels than in those with low lipid levels. CONCLUSION Long-term exposure to air pollutants was associated with blood lipid levels and the risk of dyslipidemia. People with high lipid levels were more susceptible to air pollution. Therefore, air pollution prevention and control may help reduce the incidence of dyslipidemia and the burden of CVDs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Smoking represents a major issue for global public health. Owing to methodologic challenges, findings of an association between smoking and risk of knee osteoarthritis (OA) are inconsistent. We sought to assess the relation of onset of smoking cessation to the risk of OA sequelae, i.e., knee replacement, and to perform sub-cohort analysis according to weight change after smoking cessation. DESIGN Using The Health Improvement Network, we conducted a cohort study to examine the association between smoking cessation and risk of knee replacement among patients with knee OA. Participants who stopped smoking were further grouped into three sub-cohorts: weight gain (body mass index [BMI] increased>1.14 kg/m2), no substantial weight change (absolute value of BMI change<1.14 kg/m2), and weight loss (BMI loss>1.14 kg/m2) after smoking cessation. RESULTS We identified 108 cases of knee replacement among 1,054 recent quitters (26.7/1,000 person-years) and 1,108 cases among 15,765 current smokers (17.4/1,000 person-years). The rate difference of knee replacement in recent quitter cohort vs current smoker cohort was 10.4 (95% confidence interval [CI]:5.3-15.6)/1,000 person-years and the adjusted hazard ratio (HR) was 1.30 (95%CI:1.05-1.59). Compared with current smokers, risk of knee replacement was higher among quitters with weight gain (HR = 1.42,95%CI:1.01-1.98), but not among those with no substantial weight change (HR = 1.29,95%CI:0.90-1.83) or those with weight loss (HR = 1.11,95%CI:0.71-1.75). CONCLUSIONS Our large population-based cohort study provides the first evidence that smoking cessation was associated with a higher risk of knee replacement among individuals with knee OA, and such an association was due to weight gain after smoking cessation.

Abstract
PURPOSE X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common inherited renal phosphate wasting disorder and is often misdiagnosed as vitamin D deficiency. This study aims to provide clinical and mutational characteristics of 65 XLH pediatric patients in southern China. METHODS In this work, a combination of DNA sequencing and qPCR analysis was used to study the PHEX gene in 80 pediatric patients diagnosed with hypophosphatemia. The clinical and laboratory data of confirmed 65 XLH patients were assessed and analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS In 65 XLH patients from 61 families, 51 different variants in the PHEX gene were identified, including 23 previously reported variants and 28 novel variants. In this cohort of XLH patients, the c.1601C>T(p.Pro534Leu) variant appears more frequently. Fourteen uncommon XLH cases were described, including four boys with de novo mosaic variants, eight patients with large deletions and a pair of monozygotic twins. The clinical manifestations in this cohort are very similar to those previously reported. CONCLUSION This study extends the mutational spectrum of the PHEX gene, which will contribute to accurate diagnosis. This study also suggests a supplementary qPCR or MLPA assay may be performed along with classical sequencing to confirm the gross insertion/deletion.

Abstract
The diversity and community distribution of soil bacteria in different land use types in Yangtze River Basin, Chongqing Municipality were studied by using Illumina MiSeq analysis methods. Soil physical and chemical properties were determined, and correlation analyses were performed to identify the key factors affecting bacterial numbers and α-diversity in these soils. The results showed that the soil physical and chemical properties of different land use types decrease in the order: mixed forest (M2) > pure forest (P1) > grassland (G3) > bare land (B4). There were significant differences in bacterial diversity and communities of different land use types. The diversity of different land use types showed the same sequence with the soil physical and chemical properties. The abundance and diversity of bacterial in M2 and P1 soils was significantly higher than that in G3 and B4 soils. At phylum level, G3 and B4 soils were rich in only Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria, whereas M2 and P1 soils were rich in Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria and Firmicutes. At genus level, Faecalibacterium and Agathobacter were the most abundant populations in M2 soil and were not found in other soils. Pearson correlation analysis showed that soil moisture content, pH, AN, AP, AK and soil enzyme activity were significantly related to bacterial numbers, diversity and community distribution.

Abstract
Background:Denosumab is effective for osteoporosis, but discontinuation leads to rapid reversal of its therapeutic effect[1].Objectives:To estimate the risk for fracture among users of denosumab who delayed subsequent dosages compared with users who received dosages on time.Methods:Population-based cohort study. We included patients aged over 45 years who initiated denosumab for osteoporosis from UK THIN database, 2010 to 2019. Observational data were used to “emulate a hypothetical trial”[2, 3] with three dosing intervals: subsequent denosumab injection 24-28 weeks after prior dose (“on time”), delay by 4-16 weeks (“short delay”), and delay by over 16 weeks (“long delay”). The primary outcome was a composite of all fracture types. Secondary outcomes included major osteoporotic fracture, vertebral fracture, and hip fracture.Results:The rate of composite fracture per 1000 person-years was 58.9 for on-time, 61.7 for short delay, and 85.4 for long delay of subsequent denosumab injections. Compared to on-time injections, short delay had a hazard ratio (HR) for composite fracture 1.03 (95% CI 0.63-1.69) and long delay HR 1.44 (95% CI 0.96-2.17; p for trend 0.093). For major osteoporotic fractures, short delay had an HR 0.94 (95% CI 0.57-1.55) and long delay an HR of 1.69 (95% CI 1.01-2.83; p for trend 0.056). For vertebral fractures, short delay had an HR 1.48 (95% CI 0.58-3.79) and long delay 3.91 (95% CI 1.62-9.45; p for trend 0.005).Conclusion:While delayed subsequent denosumab dosages over 16 weeks was associated with an increased risk of vertebral and major osteoporotic fracture compared to no delay, composite fracture risk was not increased with longer delays.References:[1]Cummings SR, Ferrari S, Eastell R, et al.

Evidence indicates that ferrostain-1 (Fer-1), a specific inhibitor of ferroptosis, could ameliorate cognitive dysfunction of rats with kainic acid (KA)-induced temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) by suppressing ferroptosis processes. Recent studies suggest that P38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway could be mediated by ferroptosis processes. The activation of P38 MAPK results in cognitive impairment by suppressing the expression of synaptic plasticity-related proteins. However, it is unclear whether Fer-1 can mitigate cognitive impairment of rats with KA-induced TLE by inhibiting P38 MAPK activation. In the present study, treatment with Fer-1 blocked the activation of P38 MAPK, which resulted in an increased expression of synaptophysin (SYP) and postsynaptic density protein 95 (PSD-95) in the hippocampus of rats with KA-induced TLE, hence, ameliorating their cognitive impairment. Also, P38 MAPK activation in the hippocampus of the rats reduced the expression of both PSD-95 and SYP proteins. Treatment of the rats with SB203580, a P38 MAPK-specific inhibitor, prevented the activation of P38 MAPK, which resulted in an increase in SYP and PSD95 protein levels in the hippocampus. These results suggest that Fer-1 could mitigate the cognitive impairment by suppressing P38 MAPK activation thus restoring the expression of synaptic proteins. Ferroptosis processes might be involved in suppressing synaptic protein expression.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the safety and clinical value of combined cardiac and cerebral angiography in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with carotid artery stenosis. Methods: Clinical data of patients from May 2016 to June 2019 were collected. The patient underwent combined angiography under local anesthesia. Clinical characteristics, prognosisand complications were retrospectively analyzed. Results: A total of 45 patients with carotid artery stenosis received combined angiography, among which 12 patients had no obvious carotid artery stenosis. There were 22 cases with unilateral carotid artery stenosis, including 12 cases with mild stenosis and 10 cases with moderate to severe stenosis. There were 11 cases of bilateral stenosis, including 3 cases with mild stenosis and 8 cases with moderate to severe stenosis. 12 patients had no obvious stenosis incoronary arteries, 11 patients had single-vessel disease, 7 patients had 2-vessel disease, and 15 patients had 3-vessel disease. In the whole group of patients, surgical indications are available of 18 patients with carotid artery stenosis, 4 of the mreceived combined therapy. 2 of them under went Carotid Endarterectomy (CEA)+Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Intervention (PCI), 2 under went Carotid Artery Stenting (CAS)+PCI. CAS+coronary artery angiography was performed in 3 cases. CEA+coronary angiography was performed in 5 cases. 5 patients received conservative treatment after combined angiography. In one case, the condition of coronary artery was so complicated that PCI was performed firstly. No cardiac or cerebrovascular complications such as myocardial infarction or cerebral infarction occurred during perioperative period. Conclusion: Combined cardio-cerebrovascular angiography is a good method to evaluate the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with carotid artery stenosis, which can provide a clear diagnosis for treatment with a low complications frequency.

Abstract
Objective: To implement simultaneous treatments in patients with severe carotid artery stenosis and coronary artery disease (CAD), we sought to investigate its efficacy of reducing perioperative major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular event (MACCE). Methods: Brain-and-Heart treatment team in Peking University International Hospital performed hybrid Digital Substraction Angiography (DSA) of carotid artery and coronary artery for 37 patients meeting the group criterion from September 2017 to February 2019.Twelve patients were diagnosed and received simultaneous treatments of severe carotid artery stenosis and coronary artery disease after hybrid DSA. We conducted the retrospective study and made analysis of these patients. Results: The diagnosis rate by simultaneous treatmentsin patients with carotid artery stenosis and coronary artery disease is 59.5% (22/37), the rate of severe carotid artery stenosis or multi-vessel CAD is 77.3% (17/22).The rate of severe carotid artery stenosis with CAD is 54.5% (12/22), therate of simultaneous treatmentsis 83.3%(10/12). Nine patients post-operative symptoms release, one patient with ischemic stroke after CABG, and two patients of medical therapy with stable symptoms. Conclusion: Simultaneous treatments in patients with severe carotid artery stenosis and coronary artery disease not only reveal the positive correlation between carotid stenosis and CAD, but also accurately evaluate severity degree or rapidly formulate scheme and reduce MACCE.
