Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive and lethal malignancy in women, with a lack of effective targeted drugs and treatment techniques. Gradient rotating magnetic field (RMF) is a new technology used in oncology physiotherapy, showing promising clinical applications due to its satisfactory biosafety and the abundant mechanical force stimuli it provides. However, its antitumor effects and underlying molecular mechanisms are not yet clear. We designed two sets of gradient RMF devices for cell culture and animal handling. Gradient RMF exposure had a notable impact on the F-actin arrangement of MDA-MB-231, BT-549, and MDA-MB-468 cells, inhibiting cell migration and invasion. A potential cytoskeleton F-actin-associated gene, CCDC150, was found to be enriched in clinical TNBC tumors and cells. CCDC150 negatively correlated with the overall survival rate of TNBC patients. CCDC150 promoted TNBC migration and invasion via activation of the transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1)/SMAD3 signaling pathway in vitro and in vivo. CCDC150 was also identified as a magnetic field response gene, and it was marked down-regulated after gradient RMF exposure. CCDC150 silencing and gradient RMF exposure both suppressed TNBC tumor growth and liver metastasis. Therefore, gradient RMF exposure may be an effective TNBC treatment, and CCDC150 may emerge as a potential target for TNBC therapy.

Abstract
Hypobaric hypoxia is often associated with the plateau environment and can lead to altitude sickness or death. The underlying cause is a lack of oxygen, which limits energy metabolism and leads to a compensatory stress response. Although glycolysis is commonly accepted as the primary energy source during clinical hypoxia, our preliminary experiments suggest that hypobaric hypoxia may depress glycolysis. To provide a more comprehensive understanding of energy metabolism under short-term hypobaric hypoxia, we exposed mice to a simulated altitude of 5000 m for 6 or 12 h. After the exposure, we collected blood and liver tissues to quantify the substrates, enzymes, and metabolites involved in glycolysis, lactic acid metabolism, the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA), and fatty acid β-oxidation. We also performed transcriptome and enzymatic activity analyses of the liver. Our results show that 6 h of hypoxic exposure significantly increased blood glucose, decreased lactic acid and triglyceride concentrations, and altered liver enzyme activities of mice exposed to hypoxia. The key enzymes in the glycolytic, TCA, and fatty acid β-oxidation pathways were primarily affected. Specifically, the activities of key glycolytic enzymes, such as glucokinase, decreased significantly, while the activities of enzymes in the TCA cycle, such as isocitrate dehydrogenase, increased significantly. Lactate dehydrogenase, pyruvate carboxylase, and alanine aminotransferase were upregulated. These changes were partially restored when the exposure time was extended to 12 h, except for further downregulation of phosphofructokinase and glucokinase. This study demonstrates that acute high altitude hypoxia upregulated the lactic acid/amino acid-pyruvate-TCA pathways and fatty acid oxidation, but downregulated glycolysis in the liver of mice. The results obtained in this study provide a theoretical framework for understanding the mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of high-altitude sickness in humans. Additionally, these findings have potential implications for the development of prevention and treatment strategies for altitude sickness.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a fatal disease. Drug resistance and the lack of effective drugs are the leading causes of death in patients with TNBC. Recently, long non-coding RNAs have been proven to be effective drug design targets owing to their high tissue specificity; however, an effective drug delivery system is necessary for their clinical application. In this study, we constructed a novel nanodrug delivery system based on the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeted aptamer CL4-modified exosomes (EXOs-CL4) for the targeted delivery of aspartyl-tRNA synthetase-antisense RNA 1 (DARS-AS1) small interfering RNA (siRNA) and doxorubicin (DOX) to TNBC cells in vitro and in vivo. This delivery system exerted potent anti-proliferation, anti-migration, and pro-apoptotic effects on TNBC cells. Silencing DARS-AS1 increased the sensitivity of TNBC cells to DOX by suppressing the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β)/Smad3 signaling pathway-induced autophagy, thereby enhancing the synergetic antitumor effects. Collectively, our findings revealed that EXOs-CL4-mediated delivery of DARS-AS1 siRNA can be used as a new treatment strategy for DOX-resistant TNBC. Moreover, EXOs-CL4 can be used as effective drug delivery systems for targeted TNBC therapy.

Abstract
Osteocytes are the mechano-sensors of bones. Large gradient high-static magnetic fields (LG-HMFs) produce stable, high-precision, and non-attenuation mechanical forces. We discovered that magnetic forces opposite to gravity inhibited MLO-Y4 osteocyte proliferation and viability by inducing structural damage and apoptosis. In contrast, magnetic force loading in the same direction as that of gravity promoted the proliferation and inhibited apoptosis of MLO-Y4 osteocytes. Differentially expressed gene (DEG) analysis after magnetic force stimulation indicated that the ECM-integrin-CSK axis responded most significantly to mechanical signals. Wisp2 was the most significant DEG between the 12 T upward and downward groups, showing the highest correlation with the Wnt pathway according to the STRING protein interaction database. Explaining the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which mechanical stimuli influence bone remodeling is currently the focus of osteocyte-related research. Our findings provide insights into the effects of LG-HMFs on bone cells, which have further implications in clinical practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of different dexamethasone doses in the perioperative period of total hip arthroplasty (THA). PATIENTS AND METHODS We randomly divided 180 patients into three groups: three perioperative saline injections (Group A, placebo); two perioperative doses of 15 mg dexamethasone plus a postoperative saline injection at 48 h (Group B); and three perioperative doses of dexamethasone (10 mg) (Group C). Primary outcomes were postoperative pain at rest and while walking. We also recorded consumption of analgesics and antiemetics, incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels, postoperative length of stay (p-LOS), range of motion (ROM), nausea, Identity-Consequence-Fatigue-Scale (ICFS), and severe complications (e.g., incidence of surgical site infection, SSI and gastrointestinal bleeding, GIB). RESULTS Group B and C had significantly lower pain scores at rest than Group A on postoperative day 1. Group B and C also had significantly lower dynamic pain score, CRP, and IL-6 than Group A on postoperative day 1, 2, and 3. Patients in Group B and C had lower PONV incidence, reduced use of analgesics and antiemetics, improved ROM, shorter p-LOS, lower VAS nausea score, and lower ICFS than Group A patients. On postoperative day 3, patients in Group C had significantly lower dynamic pain and ICFS scores, IL-6, and CRP than Group B patients, as well as higher ROM. None of the groups exhibited SSI or GIB. CONCLUSIONS Dexamethasone provides short-term advantages in reducing pain, PONV, inflammation, and ICFS, and increasing ROM in the early postoperative period after THA. Dexamethasone efficacy in reducing post-THA pain, inflammation, and PONV at 10 mg and 15 mg is similar during the first 48 h. Dexamethasone (30 mg) divided into three 10 mg doses was superior to two doses (15 mg) in reducing pain, inflammation, and ICFS, as well as in increasing ROM on postoperative day 3.

Abstract
Malignancies are the leading human health threat worldwide. Despite rapidly developing treatments, poor prognosis and outcome are still common. Magnetic fields have shown good anti-tumoral effects both in vitro and in vivo, and represent a potential non-invasive treatment; however, the specific underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. We here review recent studies on magnetic fields and their effect on tumors at three different levels: organismal, cellular, and molecular. At the organismal level, magnetic fields suppress tumor angiogenesis, microcirculation, and enhance the immune response. At the cellular level, magnetic fields affect tumor cell growth and biological functions by affecting cell morphology, cell membrane structure, cell cycle, and mitochondrial function. At the molecular level, magnetic fields suppress tumors by interfering with DNA synthesis, reactive oxygen species level, second messenger molecule delivery, and orientation of epidermal growth factor receptors. At present, scientific experimental evidence is still lacking; therefore, systematic studies on the biological mechanisms involved are urgently needed for the future application of magnetic fields to tumor treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of aggressive warming combined with tranexamic acid (TXA) during total hip arthroplasty (THA). PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 832 patients who underwent THA from October 2013 to June 2019 were divided into three groups according to the order of admission. There were 210 patients from October 2013 to March 2015 in group A, 302 patients from April 2015 to April 2017 in group B, and 320 patients from May 2017 to June 2019 in group C. Group A was the control group and was not given any measures. Group B was administered intravenously with 15 mg/kg TXA before skin incision and 3 h later without aggressive warming. Group C was administered intravenously with 15 mg/kg TXA before skin incision and 3 h later with aggressive warming. We evaluated the differences in the intraoperative blood loss, changes in core body temperature of patients at different stages during the operation, postoperative drainage, hidden blood loss, transfusion rate, drop of hemoglobin (Hb) on postoperative day 1 (POD1), prothrombin time (PT) of POD1, average hospitalization day, and complications. RESULTS There were statistically significant differences among the three groups during the intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative changes in core body temperature, postoperative drainage, hidden blood loss, blood transfusion rate, drop of Hb on POD1 and average hospital stay (p<0.05). There was no statistical difference in PT on POD1 and the incidence of complications (p>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Aggressive warming combined with TXA can significantly reduce the blood loss and transfusion rate of THA, and accelerate the recovery. We also observed that it does not increase the postoperative complications.

Abstract
The main purpose of this study was to study the changes in growth, root system, and tissue anatomical structure of Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica under soil drought conditions. In this study, the growth indexes and photosynthesis of P. sylvestris var. mongolica seedlings under soil drought stress were studied by pot cultivation. Continuous pot water control experiment of the indoor culture of P. sylvestris var. mongolica was carried out, ensuring that the soil water content of each treatment reached 80%, 40%, and 20% of the field moisture capacity as control, moderate drought and severe drought, respectively. The submicroscopic structures of the needles and roots were observed using a scanning electron microscope and a transmission electron microscope. The response of soil roots to drought stress was studied by root scanning. Moderate drought stress increased needle stomatal density, while under severe drought stress, stomatal density decreased. At the same time, the total number of root tips, total root length, root surface area, and root volume of seedlings decreased with the deepening of the drought. Furthermore, moderate drought and severe drought stress significantly reduced the chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b content in P. sylvestris var. mongolica seedlings compared to the control group. The needle cells were deformed and damaged, and chloroplasts and mitochondria were damaged, gradually disintegrated, and the number of osmiophiles increased. There was also an increase in nuclear vacuolation.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a debilitating joint disease affecting nearly 400 million people with no efficient etiological therapies. OA is primarily identified by cartilage destruction, and gradual degeneration of the whole joint would happen when the OA progresses. Hence, cartilage has been identified as the primary therapeutic target of OA. Unfortunately, numerous barriers block the delivery of therapeutic agents into cartilage, including avascular traits and high hardness of the extracellular matrix. Herein, a cartilage-targeting peptide (CAP) modified polyvinylamine (PVAm)- poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) copolymer (CAP-PVAm-PLGA) is designed, which can form spherical nanoparticles with the r-miR-140 (CPP-NPs). CPP-NPs possessed enhanced mechanical properties due to the introduction of PLGA to vehicles. Meanwhile, CAP endowed the cartilage targeting which facilitated CPP-NPs localization in cartilage. With such dual advantages, CPP-NPs exhibited outstanding penetrability and accumulation in cartilage even subchondral bone, and can penetrate to a depth of 1000 µm into human cartilage. The degeneration area of cartilage is reduced by 65% and synovial inflammation score by 80% in OA mice, and the microarchitecture of subchondral bone is also ameliorated. These studies established a promising platform for therapeutic RNA delivery in OA therapy that overcame the cartilage barriers.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the incidence, characteristics and risk factors of spinal epidural hematoma after unilateral biportal endoscopic (UBE) lumbar spine surgery. Methods: The clinical data of 105 patients who underwent lumbar spine surgery under UBE in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital from February 2020 to March 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Of the patients, 48(45.7%) were male and 57(54.3%) were female, the mean age was (60.1±11.4) years (ranged 26 to 85 years). The MRI images at the third day post-surgery were observed, and the occurrence of hematoma was counted. Patients were assigned to normal group and hematoma group based on the presence of hematoma or not. The related clinical indicators of each patients were collected and used for comparison between two different groups. Logistic stepwise regression model was used to analyze whether each index was a risk factor for hematoma after the UBE lumbar fusion. Results: The total hematoma incidence rate was 28.6%(30/105), the symptomatic hematoma rate was 6.7%(7/105), and the hematoma reoperation rate was 0.9%(1/105). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that hypertension (OR=3.368, 95%CI: 1.389-8.171), diabetes (OR=3.589, 95%CI: 1.230-10.476), admission systolic blood pressure>140 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa,OR=3.687, 95%CI: 1.493-9.017), platelets<200×109/L (OR=0.300, 95%CI: 0.119-0.785), preoperative blood calcium<2.25 mmol/L (OR=0.340, 95%CI: 0.142-0.818), spinal stenosis grade D (OR=4.462, 95%CI: 1.810-10.996) were possible risk factors for spinal hematoma after UBE lumbar fusion. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that admission blood pressure systolic blood pressure>140 mmHg (OR=3.788, 95%CI:1.055-13.606), preoperative blood calcium<2.25 mmol/L (OR=78.544, 95%CI:3.895-1 584.058) and spinal stenosis grade D (OR=3.698, 95%CI:1.110-12.325) were risk factors for spinal hematoma after UBE lumbar fusion (all P<0.05). Conclusion: The types of spinal canal hematoma after UBE lumbar fusion include localized and extended type. The risk factors for hematoma include high systolic blood pressure on admission, low preoperative blood calcium and severe spinal stenosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism by which inositol-requiring enzyme-1α (IRE1α) regulates autophagy function of chondrocytes through calcium homeostasis endoplasmic reticulum protein (CHERP). METHODS Cultured human chondrocytes (C28/I2 cells) were treated with tunicamycin, 4μ8c, rapamycin, or both 4μ8c and rapamycin, and the expressions of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress- and autophagy-related proteins were detected with Western blotting. Primary chondrocytes from ERN1 knockout (ERN1 CKO) mice and wild-type mice were examined for ATG5 and ATG7 mRNA expressions, IRE1α and p-IRE1α protein expressions, and intracellular calcium ion content using qPCR, Western blotting and flow cytometry. The effect of bafilomycin A1 treatment on LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ ratio in the isolated chondrocytes was assessed with Western blotting. Changes in autophagic flux of the chondrocytes in response to rapamycin treatment were detected using autophagy dual fluorescent virus. The changes in autophagy level in C28/I2 cells overexpressing CHERP and IRE1α were detected using immunofluorescence assay. RESULTS Tunicamycin treatment significantly up-regulated ER stress-related proteins and LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ ratio and down-regulated the expression of p62 in C28/I2 cells (P < 0.05). Rapamycin obviously up-regulated LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ ratio (P < 0.001) in C28/I2 cells, but this effect was significantly attenuated by co-treatment with 4μ8c (P < 0.05). Compared with the cells from the wild-type mice, the primary chondrocytes from ERN1 knockout mice showed significantly down-regulated mRNA levels of ERN1 (P < 0.01), ATG5 (P < 0.001) and ATG7 (P < 0.001), lowered or even lost expressions of IRE1α and p-IRE1α proteins (PP < 0.01), and increased expression of CHERP (P < 0.05) and intracellular calcium ion content (P < 0.001). Bafilomycin A1 treatment obviously increased LC3 Ⅱ/ LC3 Ⅰ ratio in the chondrocytes from both wild-type and ERN1 knockout mice (P < 0.01 or 0.05), but the increment was more obvious in the wild-type chondrocytes (P < 0.05). Treatment with autophagy dual-fluorescence virus resulted in a significantly greater fluorescence intensity of LC3-GFP in rapamycin-treated ERN1 CKO chondrocytes than in wild-type chondrocytes (P < 0.05). In C28/I2 cells, overexpression of CHERP obviously decreased the fluorescence intensity of LC3, and overexpression of IRE1α enhanced the fluorescence intensity and partially rescued the fluorescence reduction of LC3 caused by CHERP. CONCLUSION IRE1α deficiency impairs autophagy in chondrocytes by upregulating CHERP and increasing intracellular calcium ion content.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a rapidly recurring and highly metastatic malignancy with high heterogeneity and chemoradiotherapy resistance. Chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) can induce the occurrence of tumors and enhance lymphatic infiltration and distant metastasis through direct interaction with the sympathetic nervous system; however, its relevance in TNBC is yet to be clarified. In this study, DARS-AS1, a newly reported CUMS-responsive lncRNA, was found to be enriched in TNBC clinical tumors and cells and positively correlated with late clinical stage in patients with TNBC. DARS-AS1 overexpression significantly enhanced the migration and invasion of TNBC tumors by inhibiting miR-129-2-3p and upregulated CDK1 to activate the NF-κB/STAT3 signaling pathway both in vitro and in vivo. Treatment with DARS-AS1 siRNA-loaded exosomes (EXOs) substantially slowed CUMS-induced TNBC cell growth and liver metastasis. Therefore, DARS-AS1 represents a potential therapeutic target for metastatic TNBC, and EXOs may serve as siRNA delivery carriers in clinical therapy.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the efficacy and safety of prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT>1 year) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes who were event-free at 1 year after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stent (DES) in a large and contemporary PCI registry. Methods: A total of 1 661 eligible patients were selected from the Fuwai PCI Registry, of which 1 193 received DAPT>1 year and 468 received DAPT ≤1 year. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular event (MACCE) and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 2, 3 or 5 bleeding, MACCE was defined as a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction or stroke. Multivariate Cox regression analysis and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) Cox regression analysis were performed. Results: After a median follow-up of 2.5 years, patients who received DAPT>1 year were associated with lower risks of MACCE (1.4% vs. 3.2%; hazard ratio (HR) 0.412, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.205-0.827) compared with DAPT ≤1 year, which was primarily caused by the lower all-cause mortality (0.1% vs. 2.6%; HR 0.031, 95%CI 0.004-0.236). Risks of cardiac death (0.1% vs. 1.5%; HR 0.051, 95%CI 0.006-0.416) and definite/probable ST (0.3% vs. 1.1%; HR 0.218, 95%CI 0.052-0.917) were also lower in patients received DAPT>1 year than those received DAPT ≤ 1 year. No difference was found between the two groups in terms of BARC type 2, 3, or 5 bleeding (5.3% vs. 4.1%; HR 1.088, 95%CI 0.650-1.821). Conclusions: In patients with stable CAD and diabetes who were event-free at 1 year after PCI with DES, prolonged DAPT (>1 year) provides a substantial reduction in ischemic cardiovascular events, including MACCE, all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality, and definite/probable ST, without increasing the clinically relevant bleeding risk compared with ≤ 1-year DAPT. Further well-designed, large-scale randomized trials are needed to verify the beneficial effect of prolonged DAPT in this population.

Abstract
Fritillaria wilt is a kind of soil-borne disease that causes a large reduction in the yield of Fritillaria ussuriensis. The diversity and structure of the soil microbial community are important factors affecting the health of Fritillaria ussuriensis. The analysis of the microbial community in the diseased and healthy soils provided a theoretical basis for revealing the pathological mechanism and prevention of Fritillaria wilt disease. In the present study, we sequenced the soil microorganisms from healthy (H), pathology (P) and blank (B) soil samples by Illumina MiSeq. Determined the soil physicochemical properties respectively, analyzed the soil microbial diversity and structure, and constructed single factor co-correlation networks among microbial genera. The results showed that Ascomycota (48.36%), Mortierellomycota (23.06%), Basidiomycota (19.00%), Proteobacteria (31.74%), and Acidobacteria (20.95%) were dominant in the soil. The diversity of healthy soil was significantly greater than that of diseased soil samples (P and B) (P < 0.05). The populations of Fusarium and Humicola significantly increased in the diseased soil sample (P and B) (P < 0.05). RB41 (4.74%) and Arthrobacter (3.30%) were the most abundant genera in the healthy soil. Total nitrogen (TN), available nitrogen (AN), total potassium (TK), available potassium (AK), and inorganic salt (salt) were significantly correlated with soil microbial communities (P < 0.05). The relationship between fungi and the plant was mostly positive, whereas bacteria showed the opposite trend. In conclusion, the diversity and structure of the soil microbial community were closely related to the health level of Fritillaria ussuriensis. Fusarium and Humicola affect the severity of Fritillaria wilt disease, while RB41 and Arthrobacter are the important indicators for maintaining the health of Fritillaria ussuriensis. Moreover, environmental factors greatly affect the abundance and formation of soil microbial community. The interactions in microbial communities also influence the healthy growth of Fritillaria ussuriensis.

Abstract
Starch is the most important energy source in corn-based diets for broiler chickens, however, some proportion of dietary starch may be partially digested, leading to a decrease in feed utilisation. Therefore, supplementing exogenous amylase might be a feasible way to improve the utilisation of dietary starch for poultry. This study investigated the effects of exogenous α-(1,4)-amylase supplementation on the utilisation of corn starch and glucose metabolism in broiler chickens. A total of 560, 4-d-old Arbour Acres plus male broiler chicks were randomly divided into five treatment groups and fed a corn-soybean meal diet supplemented with 0, 400, 600, 800 and 1 200 U/kg α-(1,4)-amylase to evaluate growth. The growth performance, nutrient digestibility coefficients, digestive enzyme activity, glucose transporter transcription and cecal microbiota composition were evaluated in this study. Starch digestibility coefficient showed a quadratic response to α-(1,4)-amylase at 14 d and 42 d (P < 0.05). However, the endogenous α-amylase activity in jejunal content was linearly decreased (P = 0.045). Also, exogenous α-(1,4)-amylase linearly decreased ileal Na+-dependent glucose and galactose transporter 1 mRNA expression at 42 d (P < 0.001). Exogenous α-(1,4)-amylase generated higher insulin and glucagon serum concentrations in fasted birds (P < 0.05) and following re-feeding for 2 h (P < 0.001). BW gain and feed intake were strongly positively correlated with starch digestibility coefficient at both 14 d (r = 0.87) and 42 d (r = 0.91); whereas, the relative weight of the gizzard was weakly negatively correlated with starch digestibility coefficient (r = -0.35). The relative abundance of Unclassified_Bacillaceae was moderately positively correlated (r > 0.50) while Oscillospira, Ornithobacterium and Unclassified_Barnesiellaceae were moderately negatively correlated (-0.50 < r -0.39) with starch digestibility coefficient. In conclusion, exogenous α-amylase modulates metabolic function by increasing insulin and glucagon concentrations, influenced gut microbiota which may impact starch digestibility in the jejunum and ileum. The results of this study showed that excessive addition of exogenous α-(1,4)-amylase was not beneficial for the utilisation of starch in broiler chickens. Supplement more than 600 U/kg α-(1,4)-amylase inhibited glucose transporters, decreases the coefficients of starch and organic matter digestibility in the small intestine to a varying degree, thereby limiting the growth performance of broiler chickens.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
High thrombotic risk (HTR) and high bleeding risk (HBR) features after PCI can occur in the same patient. The individualized risks of ischemic vs. bleeding events are needed to be considered for determining the optimal duration of DAPT. We aimed to evaluate long-term ischemic and bleeding outcomes in patients who are at both HTR and HBR after DES implantation.
Methods
All consecutive patients who underwent PCI with DES were prospectively enrolled in Fuwai PCI Registry. HTR criteria based on 2017 ESC DAPT guidelines were defined as: diffuse multivessel diabetic CAD patients, chronic kidney disease, ≥3 stents implanted, ≥3 stents lesions treated, bifurcation with two stents implanted, total stent length >60 mm, or chronic total occlusion. Patients were defined as HBR if they met at least 1 major or 2 minor Academic Research Consortium (ARC)-HBR criteria. The primary ischemic outcome was major adverse cardiac event (MACE), a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization and stent thrombosis.
Results
Among 10,167 patients, 4,430 (43.6%) qualified as HTR. The rate of HBR patients was significantly higher in the HTR group than in the non-HTR group (18.9% versus 12.2%, P<0.001). Compared to those having non-HTR., Patients with ESC-HTR had higher 30-month rates of MACE (hazard ratio [HR] adjust: 1.56, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.34–1.82; P<0.001), device-oriented composite endpoint (composite of cardiac death, target-vessel MI, and target lesion revascularization) (HRadjust: 1.52 [1.27–1.83]; P<0.001), cardiac mortality, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, any revascularization, and stroke, without increasing the risk of BARC type 2, 3, or 5 bleeding. MACE rates at 30 months among those without HTR or HBR, HBR alone, HTR alone, and both HTR and HBR were 5.1%, 6.0%, 8.3%, and 8.8%, respectively (P<0.001). Associations between HTR and adverse events were similar in HBR and no HBR groups, without evidence of interaction; however, adverse event rates were highest among subjects with both HBR and HTR.
Conclusions
A combination of ESC-HTR and ARC-HBR may increase the risk of long-term ischemic events, including cardiac mortality, emphasizing the importance of considering the net clinical benefit including high ischemic and bleeding features. Our data suggest that ESC-HTR criteria was useful for stratifying post-PCI patients into risk strata for future ischemic events.

Abstract
This study aims to explore the potential mechanisms of Xinnaokang in atherosclerosis treatment. Firstly, the active components of Xinnaokang were analysed by HPLC, which contains ginsenoside Rg1, puerarin, tanshinone, notoginsenoside R1, ammonium glycyrrhizate and glycyrrhizin. Network pharmacology analysis showed there were 145 common targets of Xinnaokang, including the chemical stress, lipid metabolite, lipopolysaccharide, molecules of bacterial origin, nuclear receptor and fluid shear stress pathways. Then, the animal experiment showed that Xinnaokang reduced the body weight and blood lipid levels of atherosclerotic mice. Vascular plaque formation was increased in atherosclerotic mice, which was markedly reversed by Xinnaokang. In addition, Xinnaokang reduced CAV-1 expression and increased ABCA1, SREBP-1 and LXR expressions in the vasculature. Xinnaokang promoted SREBP-2 and LDLR expressions in the liver but decreased IDOL and PCSK9 expressions, indicating that Xinnaokang regulated lipid transport-related protein expression. Cecal microbiota diversity was reduced in atherosclerotic mice but increased after Xinnaokang treatment. Xinnaokang treatment also improved gut microbiota communities by enriching Actinobacteria, Bifidobacteriales and Bifidobacteriaceae abundances. Metabolic profile showed that Xinnaokang significantly reduced homogentisate, phenylacetylglycine, alanine and methionine expressions in the liver of atherosclerotic mice. Xinnaokang effectively alleviated atherosclerosis, and this effect might be linked with the altered features of the liver metabolite profiles and cecal microbiota.

Abstract
Relative stability of mineral elements in tissues is necessary for health. High static magnetic fields (HiSMFs) have been widely used in biomedical research and industry. However, the bioeffect of HiSMFs on animals is still unclear. In this study, we investigated the effects of HiSMF exposure on the levels of Mg, Fe, Zn, Ca, and Cu in the main organs of mice. The 8-week male C57BL/6 mice were treated by 2-4 T, 6-8 T, 10-12 T HiSMFs for 28 days. The mass fractions of Mg, Fe, Zn, Ca, and Cu in the liver, brain, kidney, and heart in mice were respectively measured by atomic absorption spectroscopy, and used to evaluate mineral element content in tissues. The 2-4 T HiSMF exposure has increased the Mg, Fe, and Ca content in the kidney, as well as the Zn content in the brain. The 6-8 T HiSMF exposure has increased the Zn level in the liver; Mg, Fe, and Ca levels in the kidney; and Fe level in the heart, while the Zn in the kidney, and Zn and Ca in the heart was decreased by 6-8 T HiSMF exposure. For the 10-12 T HiSMF exposure, the Mg in the kidney, the Fe in the liver and kidney, and Cu in the brain have been increased significantly. However, the Zn in the kidney and the Ca in the brain and the heart were reduced by 10-12 T HiSMF exposure. The HiSMF exposure for 28 days can alter the Mg, Fe, Zn, Ca, and Cu content in mice, and change with the different magnetic flux density of HiSMFs (2-4 T, 6-8 T, 10-12 T), elements, and organ types.

Abstract
Peritendinous blood circulation improvement is a challenge to promote the healing of ruptured tendons in clinical treatment. Although electrospun membranes or scaffolds enable the reduction of complications such as adhesion, however, low efficiency, toxicity issues, the loss of biological activity, and complex electrospinning techniques are all bottlenecks of these systems. Improving the blood supply is crucial for their successful use, which involves promoting the metabolism and nutrient absorption in tendons. Here, a multifunctional, structurally simple strategy involving heparin-loaded sutures (PPH) that are clinically applicable is reported, in the form of electrospun core-shell nanofibers, with the ability to perform sustained release of anticoagulants heparin (verified in our previous publication) for the improvement of the healing of Achilles tendon. The morphology and diameter distribution of the collagen fiber in the PPH group are closely related to the health of the Achilles tendon than those of commercial sutures (CS). The in vivo results of the total collagen content and the expression of collagen type I in the PPH group are more than those of the CS group. After 6 weeks of culture, the tensile strength of the PPH group shows no significant difference compared to the healthy group. The data obtained in this study improves the current understanding on the regeneration of ruptured tendons and presents a promising strategy for clinical treatment.

Abstract
Protein self-assemblies at the micro- and nano-scale are of great interest because of their morphological diversity and good biocompatibility. High-throughput screening of protein self-assembly at different scales and morphologies using protein crystallization screening conditions is an emerging method. When using this method to screen protein self-assembly conditions, some apparently transparent droplets are often observed, in which it is not clear whether self-assembly occurs. We explored the interaction between β-lactoglobulin and the protein crystallization kit Index™ C10 and observed the presence of micro- and nano-scale protein self-assemblies in the transparent droplets. The diverse morphology of the micro- and nano-scale self-assemblies in the transparent droplets formed by mixing different initial concentrations of β-lactoglobulin and Index™ C10 was further investigated by scanning electron microscope. Self-assembly process of fluorescence-labelled β-lactoglobulin was monitored continuously by laser confocal microscope, allowing real-time observation of the liquid-liquid phase separation phenomenon and the morphology of the final self-assemblies. The internal structure of the self-assemblies was gradually ordered over time by in-situ X-ray diffraction. This indicates that the self-assembly phenomenon within transparent droplets, observed in protein self-assembly condition screening experiments, is worthy of further in-depth exploration.

Background
Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are known to be at high-risk for both ischemic and bleeding complications post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The ischemic benefit versus bleeding risk associated with extended dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in high-risk "TWILIGHT-like" patients with diabetes mellitus after PCI has not been established.
Methods
All consecutive high-risk patients fulfilling the "TWILIGHT-like" criteria undergoing PCI from January 2013 through December 2013 were identified from prospective Fuwai PCI Registry. High-risk "TWILIGHT-like" patients were defined by at least 1 clinical and 1 angiographic feature based on TWILIGHT trial selection criteria. The present analysis evaluated 3425 diabetics patients with concomitant high-risk angiographic features who were event-free at 1 year after PCI. Median follow-up was 2.4 years. The primary effectiveness endpoint was a composite of death, myocardial infarction, or stroke (termed major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events) and primary safety endpoint was clinically relevant bleeding according to Bleeding Academic Research Consortium type 2, 3, or 5.
Results
On inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) analysis, prolonged-term (>1-year) DAPT with aspirin and clopidogrel decreased the risk of primary effectiveness endpoint compared with shorter (≤1-year) DAPT (1.8% vs. 4.3%; hazard ratio [HR]IPTW: 0.381; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.252-0.576; P < 0.001) and reduced cardiovascular death (0.1% vs. 1.8%; HRIPTW: 0.056 [0.016-0.193]). Prolonged DAPT was also associated with a reduced risk of definite/probable stent thrombosis (0.2% vs. 0.7%; HRIPTW: 0.258 [0.083-0.802]), and non-significantly lower rate of myocardial infarction (0.5% vs. 0.8%; HRIPTW: 0.676 [0.275-1.661]). There was no significant difference between groups in clinically relevant bleeding (1.1% vs. 1.1%; HRIPTW: 1.078 [0.519-2.241]; P = 0.840). Similar results were observed in multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression model.
Conclusion
Among high-risk PCI patients with diabetes mellitus without an adverse event through 1 year, extending DAPT > 1-year significantly reduced the risk of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events without an increase in clinically relevant bleeding, suggesting that such high-risk diabetic patients may be good candidates for long-term DAPT.

Background
Whether the underlying risk of high bleeding risk (HBR) influences the relationship of high ischemic risk (HIR) features with adverse events after drug-eluting stent implantation remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to evaluate (1) the prognostic effect of ESC guideline-endorsed HIR features on long-term clinical outcomes and (2) whether the outcomes of HIR versus non-HIR features vary by HBR status.
Methods
Ten thousand one hundred sixty-seven consecutive patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention between January 2013 and December 2013 were prospectively enrolled in Fuwai PCI Registry. Patients who are at HIR were defined as: diffuse multivessel disease in diabetic patients, chronic kidney disease, at least three stents implanted, at least three stents lesions treated, bifurcation with two stents implanted, total stent length > 60 mm, or treatment of chronic total occlusion. The definition of HBR was based on the Academic Research Consortium (ARC) for HBR criteria. The primary ischemic outcome was major adverse cardiac event (MACE), a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization and stent thrombosis. The primary bleeding outcome was clinically relevant bleeding, defined according to Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 2, 3 or 5 bleeding.
Results
With a 2.4-year median follow-up, 4430 patients (43.6%) having HIR experienced a significantly higher risk of MACE (hazard ratio [HR] adjust : 1.56, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.34–1.82; P < 0.001) and device-oriented composite endpoint (composite of cardiac death, target-vessel MI, and target lesion revascularization) (HRadjust : 1.52 [1.27–1.83]; P < 0.001), compared to those having non-HIR. The risk of clinically relevant bleeding did not differ between groups (HRadjust : 0.85 [0.66–1.08]; P = 0.174). Associations between HIR and adverse events were similar in HBR and non-HBR groups, without evidence of interaction (all P interaction > 0.05); however, adverse event rates were highest among subjects with both HIR and HBR.
Conclusions
ESC guideline-endorsed HIR was associated with significantly increased risk of MACE without any significant differences in clinically relevant bleeding. The presence of ARC-HBR does not emerge as a modifier of cardiovascular risk for patients at HIR, suggesting more potent and longer antiplatelet therapy may be beneficial for this patient population.

Background
The ischemic/bleeding trade-off of continuing dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) beyond 1 year after PCI for patients with high thrombotic risk (HTR) as endorsed by 2018 ESC/EACTS myocardial revascularization guidelines remain unknown. We sought to evaluate the benefits and harms of DAPT with aspirin and clopidogrel beyond 1 year versus ≤ 1-year DAPT on long-term clinical outcomes after PCI with DES among ESC/EACTS guideline-endorsed HTR patients that are event-free at 1 year follow-up, using a prospective, real-world registry.
Methods
Patients undergoing coronary stenting between January 2013 and December 2013 from the prospective Fuwai registry were defined as HTR if they met at least 1 ESC/EACTS guideline-endorsed HTR criteria with at least 1 of the following characteristics: diffuse (lesion length ≥ 20 mm) multivessel disease in diabetic patients, CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate < 60 mL/min), ≥ 3 stents implanted, ≥ 3 lesions treated, bifurcation with 2 stents implanted, total stent length > 60 mm, treatment of CTO, and history of STEMI. A total of 4578 patients who were at HTR and were events free at 1 year after the index procedure were evaluated. The primary efficacy outcome was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) (composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, or stroke).
Results
Median follow-up period was 2.4 years. > 1-year DAPT with clopidogrel and aspirin significantly reduced the risk of MACCE compared with ≤ 1-year DAPT (1.9% vs. 4.6%; hazard ratio (HR): 0.38; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.27–0.54; P < 0.001), driven by a reduction in all-cause death (0.2% vs. 3.0%; HR, 0.07; 95% CI, 0.03–0.15). Cardiac death and definite/ probable stent thrombosis also occurred less frequently in prolonged DAPT group. Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 2, 3, or 5 bleeding occurred similarly between both groups (1.1% vs. 0.9%; HR, 1.11; 95% CI, 0.58–2.13; P = 0.763). Similar results were found using multivariable Cox model, propensity score-matched, and inverse probability of treatment weighting analysis.
Conclusions
Among patients with ESC-endorsed HTR who were free from major ischemic or bleeding events 1 year after coronary stenting, continued DAPT beyond 1 year might offer better effectiveness in terms of atherothrombotic events and comparable safety in terms of clinically relevant bleeding compared with ≤ 1-year DAPT. ESC-HTR criteria is an important parameter to take into account in tailoring DAPT prolongation.

Abstract
Muscle fibers are closely related to human diseases and livestock meat quality. However, the genetics basis of microRNAs (miRNAs) in regulating muscle fibers is not completely understood. In this study, we constructed the whole genome-wide miRNA expression profiles of porcine fast-twitch muscle [biceps femoris (Bf)] and slow-twitch muscle [soleus (Sol)], and identified hundreds of miRNAs, including four skeletal muscle-highly expressed miRNAs, ssc-miR-378, ssc-let-7f, ssc-miR-26a, and ssc-miR-27b-3p. Moreover, we identified 63 differentially expressed (DE) miRNAs between biceps femoris vs. soleus, which are the key candidate miRNAs regulating the skeletal muscle fiber types. In addition, we found that the expression of DE ssc-miR-499-5p was significantly correlated to the expression of Myoglobin (r = 0.6872, P < 0.0001) and Myosin heavy chain 7 (MYH7; r = 0.5408, P = 0.0020), and pH45 min (r = 0.3806, P = 0.0380) and glucose content (r = -0.4382, P = 0.0154); while the expression of DE ssc-miR-499-3p was significantly correlated to the expression of Myoglobin (r = 0.5340, P = 0.0024) and pH45 min (r = 0.4857, P = 0.0065). Taken together, our data established a sound foundation for further studies on the regulatory mechanisms of miRNAs in skeletal muscle fiber conversion and meat quality traits in livestock, and could provide a genetic explanation of the role of miRNAs in human muscular diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This prospective study compared the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic gastric bypass and laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in treating overweight and obese patients with BMI>28 kg/m2 and type-2 diabetes. METHODS Patients were randomized into a gastric bypass group (n = 77) or a gastrectomy group (n = 80). The surgery time, intraoperative blood loss, recovery time, and hospitalization time were collected. BMI, waistline, hipline, C-peptide level, insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), and their blood and lipid profile were also measured. RESULTS Surgery time and blood loss were significantly higher in the gastrectomy group, when compared to the gastric bypass group (P < 0.05). In both groups, the levels of BMI, waist circumference and hip circumference (but not their ratio) gradually and significantly decreased after surgery compared with baseline (P < 0.05), and no significant difference was found between these two groups. The C-peptide level, HOMA-IR, fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose and glycosylated haemoglobin gradually and significantly decreased after surgery compared with the values before treatment (P < 0.05). The levels of total cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 were also lower after surgery in both groups, while HDL and glucagon-like peptide-1 were significantly higher after surgery compared with the values before treatment (P < 0.05). However, no significant difference was found between these two groups of patients. CONCLUSION Both laparoscopic gastric bypass and laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy improved the BMI and diabetic conditions of overweight/obese diabetics, while laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy had a shorter surgical time and less blood loss.

Abstract
Meat quality improvement is of great interest to researchers in pig breeding and many researchers have identified abundant associated quantitative trait loci, genes and polymorphisms (QTXs) for fat-related traits. However, it is challenging to determine credible candidate genes from a mass of associations. The efficiency of identification of credible candidate genes in these QTXs is restricted by limited integration analyses of data from multiple omics. In this study, we constructed a 'candidate gene map' of fat-related traits in pigs based on published literature and the latest genome. In total, 6,861 QTXs, which covered 9,323 genes on the pig genome, were used. Combining the QTX hotspots and pathway analysis, we identified 180 candidate genes that may regulate the fat-related traits, and choose PNPLA2, PPARG, SREBF1, ACACA, PPARD and PPARA as credible candidate genes. In addition, we discussed the importance of incorporating transcriptome data and genomic data in causal gene identification, and the multi-omics information can effectively improve the credibility of identified candidate genes.

Abstract
Background:Gout is a frequent comorbidity in kidney transplant (KT) recipients. However, assessing the independent effect of gout on KT outcomes is difficult because of multiple confounders (e.g., temporal changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR], cyclosporine or tacrolimus dose, urate-lowering medication use) that obscure a clear picture of gout’s potential impact.Objectives:This investigation assessed if the development of new-onset gout after KT was an independent risk factor for loss of graft function, as assessed by the need for maintenance hemodialysis following KT.Methods:This retrospective cohort study analyzed data on patients in the United States Renal Data System (USRDS) who received a primary KT between 1/1/2008 and 12/31/2015. The date of transplantation was the ‘index’ date. Eligible patients were required to have ≥24 months of Medicare coverage and no prior history of gout, defined as ≥1 claim with a gout diagnosis code in the 24 months prior to the index date. All patients were also required to have ≥12 months of coverage post index. Patients who died, experienced graft failure, or returned to dialysis <12 months post index were excluded. Because the first year following transplant is associated with the highest frequency of rejections, we evaluated subjects beginning 1 year after transplant. The exposure of interest was new-onset gout, defined as the presence of ≥2 claims for gout post index, and the primary endpoint was return to dialysis >12 months post index. Baseline time-invariant confounders included recipient and donor demographics and clinical characteristics at index. Time-varying confounders included body mass index (BMI) adjusted tacrolimus and cyclosporine dose, eGFR, and urate-lowering medication use post index. Patients who died or lost Medicare coverage >12 months post index were censored; all patients remaining at the end of the study period (12/31/2016) were also censored. A marginal structural model (MSM) was fitted to determine the relative risk of new-onset gout on return to dialysis, while controlling for both time-invariant and time-varying confounders.Results:18,525 of 466,589 KT recipients in the USRDS met study eligibility. Within the observation period, 1,399 (7.6%) developed new-onset gout and 1,420 (7.7%) returned to dialysis >12 months post index. Median time from index to new-onset gout and from index to return to dialysis was 16.2 months (IQR: 33.4) and 32.8 months (IQR: 28.4), respectively. Adjusting for baseline time-invariant and time-varying confounders via the MSM showed new-onset gout was associated with a 51% increased risk of return to dialysis >12 months post index (RR: 1.51, 95% CI: 1.03, 2.20).Conclusion:New-onset gout was independently associated with a 51% increased risk of return to dialysis >12 months after primary KT compared to a control cohort without gout. To our knowledge, this is the first observation of this outcome in an appropriately controlled cohort study of KT recipients with gout. Results from this analysis may have important implications for the monitoring and management of new-onset gout in the kidney transplant population.References:[1]Mandell BF.Cleve Clin J Med2008;75(Suppl 5):S5-8.[2]Forbess LJ, Fields TR.Sem Arthritis Rheum2012;42:146-54.[3]Gibson T.Curr Opin Rheumatol2012;24:127-31.[4]Zhang L, et al.Nephrol Dial Transplant2012;27:1836-9.[5]Clive DM.J Am Soc Nephrol2000;11:974-9.[6]Kalantar E, et al.Transplant Proc2011;43:584-5.[7]Lin HY, et al.N Engl J Med1989;321:287-92.[8]Ben Hmida M, et al.Transplant Proc1995;27:2722-4.[9]Kanbay M, et al.Transplant Proc2005;37:3119-20.[10]Baroletti S, Bencivenga GA.Prog Transplant2004;14:143-7.[11]Kim ED, et al.Am J Transplant2015;15:482-8.[12]Kim DG, et al.PloS One2018;13:e0209156.Disclosure of Interests: :Justin Li: None declared, David Yin: None declared, Zheng Wang: None declared, Mark Brigham: None declared, Brian LaMoreaux Shareholder of: Horizon Therapeutics, Employee of: Horizon Therapeutics, Jeffrey Kent Shareholder of: Horizon Therapeutics, Employee of: Horizon Therapeutics, Megan Francis-Sedlak Shareholder of: Horizon Therapeutics, Employee of: Horizon Therapeutics, Richard Johnson Shareholder of: Colorado Research Partners LLC, XORTX Therapeutics, Consultant of: Horizon Therapeutics, Eli Lilly, Speakers bureau: Horizon Therapeutics, Nandini Hadker: None declared, Kevin Francis: None declared, Herman Sanchez: None declared, Gavin Miyasato: None declared

Abstract
Leaf venations have elements with relatively lower elasticity than other leaf tissue components, which are thought to contribute to leaf biomechanics. A better mechanistic understanding of relationships between vein traits and leaf mechanical properties is essential for ecologically relevant interpretation of leaf structural variations. We investigated 13 major (first to third order) and minor (>third order) vein traits, six leaf mechanical properties and other structural traits across 58 woody species from a subtropical forest to elucidate how vein traits contribute to leaf biomechanics. Across species, vein dry mass density (ρv ), total vein dry mass per leaf area (VMA) and minor vein diameter (VDmin ), but not the lower-order vein density (VLA1•2 ), were positively correlated with leaf force to punch (Fp ) and force to tear (Ft ). Structural equation models showed that ρv and VDmin not only contribute to leaf mechanical properties directly (direct pathway), but also had impacts on leaf biomechanics by influencing leaf thickness and leaf dry mass per area (indirect pathway). Our study demonstrated that vein dry mass density and minor vein diameter are the key vein properties for leaf biomechanics. We also suggest that the mechanical characteristics of venations are potential factors influencing leaf mechanical resistance, structure and leaf economics spectrum.

Abstract
Lake Tai is China's third largest freshwater lake and an important water resource for agriculture, industrial sectors, and as drinking water for several large cities. In this study, the occurrence of five antibiotic resistance genes (sul1, blaTEM, blaNDM-1, blaCTX-M-32, mcr-1) was investigated in water and sediment samples collected from Lake Tai. Antibiotic resistances are currently increasing, posing a significant threat to public health. The sulfonamide resistance gene sul1 was highly abundant in all analyzed water and sediment samples. In addition, the two β-lactamase genes blaTEMand blaNDM-1 - encoding clinically relevant antibiotic resistances - were detected in 67.1 and 7.3% of the water samples and in 70.7 and 15.4% of the sediment samples. The third β-lactamase gene, blaCTX-M-32, was only detected in water samples (13.4%), while the colistin resistance gene mcr-1 was not detected in any of the samples. No significant variations between different sampling sites or time points could be observed. The investigation of drinking water treatment at Lake Tai, using lake water as influent, showed a significant reduction of the antibiotic resistance genes through the treatment process. Microbial source tracking showed only low fecal contamination by humans, ruminants, and pigs, indicating the relevance of other sources such as fish farms. Overall, our results provide important insights into the occurrence and abundance of antibiotic resistance genes in the Lake Tai water system and their elimination via drinking water treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The spread of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR-KPN) is a major concern, but data on CR-KPN infection/colonization in paediatric populations are limited. AIM To analyse epidemiologic and clinical characteristics, and therapeutic options for CR-KPN infections in neonates in China. METHODS A retrospective study was performed at the Children's Hospital of Fudan University, including 88 neonates with CR-KPN admitted between November 2015 and October 2016. Forty-seven CR-KPN isolates were chosen at random for further study, including antimicrobial susceptibility testing, potential β-lactamase screening and homology analysis. FINDINGS In total, 44.3% (39/88) of the neonates with CR-KPN were infected, and 71.8% (28/39) were nosocomial infections. Of these, pneumonia and urinary tract infection accounted for 50.0% (14/28) and 42.9% (12/28), respectively. All infected patients were cured or improved with fosfomycin and/or carbapenem-containing combination therapy, except one case in whom treatment was withdrawn. All 47 cases of CR-KPN were resistant to ertapenem and 95.7% were resistant to imipenem/meropenem. Overall, 87.2% (41/47) were positive for blaNDM-1, and belonged to 11 pulsed-field gel electrophoresis types; 53.7% (22/41) were designated as ST278 and 17.1% (7/41) were designated as ST2735 by multi-locus sequence typing. CONCLUSIONS Most of the CR-KPN isolated from neonates produced New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase-1 and were highly homologous. Fosfomycin-containing regimens and meropenem-/panipenem-containing combination therapy were efficient for CR-KPN infection in neonates.

Abstract
The oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) pathway is an efficient way to produce energy via adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is critical for sustaining an energy supply for cetaceans in a hypoxic environment. Several studies have shown that natural selection may shape the evolution of the genes involved in OXPHOS. However, how network architecture drives OXPHOS protein sequence evolution remains poorly explored. Here, we investigated the evolutionary patterns of genes in the OXPHOS pathway across six cetacean genomes within the framework of a functional network. Our results show a negative correlation between the strength of purifying selection and pathway position. This result indicates that downstream genes were subjected to stronger evolutionary constraints than upstream genes, which may be due to the dual function of ATP synthase in the OXPHOS pathway. Additionally, there was a positive correlation between codon usage bias and omega (ω = dN/dS) and a negative correlation with synonymous substitution rate (dS), indicating that the stronger selective constraint on genes (with less biased codon usage) along the OXPHOS pathway is attributable to an increase in the rate of synonymous substitution. Surprisingly, there was no significant correlation between protein-protein interactions and the evolutionary estimates, implying that highly connected enzymes may not always show greater evolutionary constraints. Compared with that observed for terrestrial mammals, we found that the signature of positive selection detected in five genes (ATP5J, LHPP, PPA1, UQCRC1 and UQCRQ) was cetacean-specific, reflecting the importance of OXPHOS for survival in hypoxic, aquatic environments.

Abstract
Breast cancer, one of the most common malignant tumors in females, draws little attention because of its untypical symptoms and signs, so the disease is usually confirmed too late, in an advanced stage. Based on the detection of nuclear morphology parameters of luminal B breast cancer, this study explored how pathological features relate to estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2). A quantity of 354 breast cancer specimens with follow-up records from the department of pathology in the First Peoples Hospital of Nantong and the Tumor Hospital of Nantong were selected as research subjects. Nuclear parameters of specimens stained by hematoxylin and eosin were measured by imaging analysis software. It was found that breast cancer can be divided into four types, luminal B, luminal A, HER2 over-expression and basal-like type based on immunohistochemical results of three antibodies, i.e, ER, PR and HER2. A total of 113 patients (31.8%) were confirmed with luminal B breast cancer, mostly in histological stage II; the difference of nuclear morphology was of statistical significance between ER+/PR+ and ER-/PR- (P<0.05), and most ER-/PR- was histologically confirmed as stage III, with lower survival rate than ER+/PR+ (P<0.05). Among these four subtypes of breast cancer, luminal B had the lowest brain metastasis rate, while HER2 over-expression subtype was found with the highest rate of lung and pleura metastasis. Besides, luminal B possessed longer disease-free survival (DFS) than basal-like (P<0.05) and longer total survival (OS) than HER2 over-expression (P<0.05) and basal-like subtypes (P<0.05). It can be concluded that detection of ER, PR and HER2 in combination with nuclear morphology is beneficial to evaluate treatment and prognosis of breast cancer.

Abstract
Determination of protein 3-dimensional structure offers very important information in biology researches, especially for understanding protein functions and redundant drug design. The X-ray crystallography is still the main technique for protein structure determination. Obtaining protein crystals is an essential procedure after protein purification in this technique. However, there is only 42% of soluble purified proteins yield crystals by statistics. Experimental verification of protein crystallizability is relatively expensive and time-consuming. Thus it is desired to predict the protein crystallizability by a computational method before starting the experiment. In this paper, combined with our own efforts, some successful in silico methods to predict the protein crystallizability are reviewed.
