Abstract
The majority of neocortical projection neurons are generated indirectly from radial glial cells (RGCs) mediated by intermediate progenitor cells (IPCs) in mice. IPCs are thought to be a great breakthrough in the evolutionary expansion of the mammalian neocortex. However, the precise ratio of neuron production from IPCs and characteristics of RGC differentiation process are still unclear. Our study revealed that direct neurogenesis was seldom observed and increased slightly at late embryonic stage. Besides, we conducted retrovirus sparse labelling combined carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimide ester (CFSE) and Tbr2-CreER strain to reconstruct individual lineage tree in situ. The lineage trees simulated the output of RGCs at per round of division in sequence with high temporal, spatial and cellular resolution at P7. We then demonstrated that only 1.90% of neurons emanated from RGCs directly in mouse cerebral neocortex and 79.33% of RGCs contributed to the whole clones through IPCs. The contribution of indirect neurogenesis was underestimated previously because approximately a quarter of IPC-derived neurons underwent apoptosis. Here, we also showed that abundant IPCs from first-generation underwent self-renewing division and generated four neurons ultimately. We confirmed that the intermediate proliferative progenitors expressed higher Cux2 characteristically at early embryonic stage. Finally, we validated that the characteristics of neurogenetic process in lineages and developmental fate of neurons were conserved in Reeler mice. This study contributes to further understanding of neurogenesis in neocortical development.

Abstract
The gut microbiota of poultry is influenced by a variety of factors, including feed, drinking water, airborne dust, and footpads, among others. Gut microbiota can affect the immune reaction and inflammation in the lungs. To investigate the effect of gut microbiota variation on lung inflammation induced by PM2.5 (fine particulate matter) in broilers, 36 Arbor Acres (AA) broilers were randomly assigned to three groups: control group (CON), PM2.5 exposure group (PM), and PM2.5 exposure plus oral antibiotics group (PMA). We used non-absorbable antibiotics (ABX: neomycin and amikacin) to modify the microbiota composition in the PMA group. The intervention was conducted from the 18th to the 28th day of age. Broilers in the PM and PMA groups were exposed to PM by a systemic exposure method from 21 to 28 days old, and the concentration of PM2.5 was controlled at 2 mg/m3. At 28 days old, the lung injury score, relative mRNA expression of inflammatory factors, T-cell differentiation, and dendritic cell function were significantly increased in the PM group compared to the CON group, and those of the PMA group were significantly decreased compared to the PM group. There were significant differences in both α and β diversity of cecal microbiota among these three groups. Numerous bacterial genera showed significant differences in relative abundance among the three groups. In conclusion, gut microbiota could affect PM2.5-induced lung inflammation in broilers by adjusting the capacity of antigen-presenting cells to activate T-cell differentiation. IMPORTANCE Gut microbes can influence the development of lung inflammation, and fine particulate matter collected from broiler houses can lead to lung inflammation in broilers. In this study, we explored the effect of gut microbes modified by intestinal non-absorbable antibiotics on particulate matter-induced lung inflammation. The results showed that modification in the composition of gut microbiota could alleviate lung inflammation by attenuating the ability of dendritic cells to stimulate T-cell differentiation, which provides a new way to protect lung health in poultry farms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adaptive changes in the endometrial immune microenvironment during the luteal phase are essential for pregnancy, and their abnormalities are associated with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). Nevertheless, the specific mechanism is still unknown. Cuprotosis, an innovatively discovered type of programmed cell death, provides us with a pioneering perspective to decipher the landscape of luteal-phase endometrial immune microenvironment in RPL. This study aimed to analyze the immune landscape of luteal-phase endometrial microenvironment in RPL and explore the association of cuprotosis with it through integrative bioinformatics analysis. METHODS The microarrays involving the luteal phase endometrial tissue of RPL were obtained from the GEO database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of RPL were screened and key modules were detected by WGCNA. GO, KEGG, and GSEA immune enrichment analyses were performed on the DEGs in the most relevant modules to RPL. Then, the endometrial immune microenvironment landscape of RPL was analyzed, including immune infiltration analysis and correlation analysis between immune cells or immune functions. The interaction of cuprotosis-related genes (CRGs), the expression level between groups, the immune localization and their correlation with immune cells and immune function were analyzed. LASSO regression and Nomogram evaluated the diagnostic value of immune-related CRGS in RPL. Functional enrichment analysis was performed on the RPL signature CRGs. And RPL samples were grouped according to the expression of 7 RPL signature CRGs through unsupervised clustering analysis. After that, we analyzed the expression level of CRGs and immune infiltration, as well as performed immune function enrichment analysis in subtypes. In addition, we also screened potential drugs that might act on CRGs to improve the pathological mechanism of RPL. RESULTS In this study, we uncovered that DEGs and genes in key modules derived from weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) were involved in immune regulation. And the immune infiltration landscape of RPL was significantly different from healthy controls. Furthermore, six hub genes were screened from CRGs based on Cytohubba, and their expression profilings were verified in RPL and normal mouse samples. Besides, seven CRGs closely associated with the immune regulation of RPL were identified by Spearman correlation analysis, including SLC31A1, LIAS, DLD, DLAT, DBT, ATP7B, and ATP7A, named as immune-related CRGs. Furthermore, three subgroups clustered according to these seven genes showed significant differences in immune landscape, suggesting a remarkable effect of CRGs on immune regulation. Last but not least, we analyzed the regulation network of transcription factors, miRNAs, and CRGs, and screened potential compounds for the treatment of RPL by targeting CRGs. CONCLUSIONS The abnormal endometrial immune microenvironment in the luteal phase was associated with the pathomechanism of RPL, and cuprotosis was closely involved in the immune microenvironment in the luteal phase endometrium of RPL. Collectively, this study revealed the potential contribution of CRGs to the pathogenesis of RPL, providing a novel breakthroughs in insights into the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of RPL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim was to validate the correlation between corneal shape parameters and axial length growth (ALG) during orthokeratology using Image-Pro Plus (IPP) 6.0 software. METHODS This retrospective study used medical records of myopic children aged 8-13 years (n = 104) undergoing orthokeratology. Their corneal topography and axial length were measured at baseline and subsequent follow-ups after lens wear. Corneal shape parameters, including the treatment zone (TZ) area, TZ diameter, TZ fractal dimension, TZ radius ratio, eccentric distance, pupil area, and pupillary peripheral steepened zone(PSZ) area, were measured using IPP software. The impact of corneal shape parameters at 3 months post-orthokeratology visit on 1.5-year ALG was evaluated using multivariate linear regression analysis. RESULTS ALG exhibited significant associations with age, TZ area, TZ diameter, TZ fractal dimension, and eccentric distance on univariate linear regression analysis. Multivariate regression analysis identified age, TZ area, and eccentric distance as significantly correlated with ALG (all P < 0.01), with eccentric distance showing the strongest correlation (β = -0.370). The regressive equation was y = 1.870 - 0.235a + 0.276b - 0.370c, where y represents ALG, a represents age, b represents TZ area, and c represents eccentric distance; R2 = 0.27). No significant relationships were observed between the TZ radius ratio, pupillary PSZ area, and ALG. CONCLUSIONS IPP software proves effective in capturing precise corneal shape parameters after orthokeratology. Eccentric distance, rather than age or the TZ area, significantly influences ALG retardation.

Abstract
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a widespread psychiatric condition that affects a significant portion of the global population. The classification and diagnosis of MDD is crucial for effective treatment. Traditional methods, based on clinical assessment, are subjective and rely on healthcare professionals' expertise. Recently, there's growing interest in using Resting-State Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (rs-fMRI) to objectively understand MDD's neurobiology, complementing traditional diagnostics. The posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) is a pivotal brain region implicated in MDD which could be used to identify MDD from healthy controls. Thus, this study presents an intelligent approach based on rs-fMRI data to enhance the classification of MDD. Original rs-fMRI data were collected from a cohort of 430 participants, comprising 197 patients and 233 healthy controls. Subsequently, the data underwent preprocessing using DPARSF, and the amplitudes of low-frequency fluctuation values were computed to reduce data dimensionality and feature count. Then data associated with the PCC were extracted. After eliminating redundant features, various types of Support Vector Machines (SVMs) were employed as classifiers for intelligent categorization. Ultimately, we compared the performance of each algorithm, along with its respective optimal classifier, based on classification accuracy, true positive rate, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC-ROC). Upon analyzing the comparison results, we determined that the Random Forest (RF) algorithm, in conjunction with a sophisticated Gaussian SVM classifier, demonstrated the highest performance. Remarkably, this combination achieved a classification accuracy of 81.9 % and a true positive rate of 92.9 %. In conclusion, our study improves the classification of MDD by supplementing traditional methods with rs-fMRI and machine learning techniques, offering deeper neurobiological insights and aiding accuracy, while emphasizing its role as an adjunct to clinical assessment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficacy of acupuncture at Zusanli (ST36) in alleviating lower-limb pain is widely acknowledged in clinical practice, while its underlying mechanism remains incompletely elucidated. Our previous research had revealed that the prompt analgesia induced by needling-ST36 was accompanied by expression alterations in certain exco-nucleotidases within the sciatic nerve. Building upon this finding, the current work focused on NTPDase1, the primary ecto-nucleotidase in the human body, which converts ATP into AMP. METHODS A 20-min acupuncture was administered unilaterally at the ST36 on rats with acute ankle arthritis. The pain thresholds of the injured hind paws were determined. Pharmacological interference was carried out by introducing the corresponding reagents to the sciatic nerve. ATP levels around the excised nerve were measured using a luciferase-luciferin assay. Live calcium imaging, utilizing the Fura 2-related-F340/F380 ratio, was conducted on Schwann cells in excised nerves and cultured rat SCs line, RSC96 cells. RESULTS The analgesic effect induced by needling-ST36 was impaired when preventing ATP degradation via inhibiting NTPDase1 activities with ARL67156 or Ticlopidine. Conversely, increasing NTPDase1 activities with Apyrase duplicated the acupuncture effect. Similarly, preventing the conversion of AMP to adenosine via suppression of NT5E with AMP-CP hindered the acupuncture effect. Unexpectedly, impeded ATP hydrolysis ability and diminished NTPDase1 expression were observed in the treated group. Agonism at P2Y2Rs with ATP, UTP, or INS365 resulted in anti-nociception. Contrarily, antagonism at P2Y2Rs with Suramin or AR-C 118925xx prevented acupuncture analgesia. Immunofluorescent labeling demonstrated that the treated rats expressed more P2Y2Rs that were predominant in Schwann cells. Suppression of Schwann cells by inhibiting ErbB receptors also prevented acupuncture analgesia. Finally, living imaging on the excised nerves or RSC96 cells showed that agonism at P2Y2Rs indeed led to [Ca2+]i rise. CONCLUSION These findings strongly suggest that the analgesic mechanism of needling-ST36 on the hypersensation in the lower limb partially relies on NTPDase1 activities in the sciatic nerve. In addition to facilitating adenosine signaling in conjunction with NT5E, most importantly, NTPDase1 may provide an appropriate low-level ATP milieu for the activation of P2Y2R in the sciatic nerve, particularly in Schwann cells.

Abstract
Objective To assess the effectiveness of using mobile health platforms for continuous care in preventing and treating osteoporosis. Methods 114 patients with osteoporosis admitted to Nantong First People's Hospital from March 2021 to June 2022 were recruited and assigned equally via random number table method to receive either routine care (namely education on osteoporosis disease, dietary guidance, exercise guidance, activity guidance, medication supervision, fall prevention, psychological care, and secondary health education at the time of discharge) (routine group) or mobile health platform-based continuity of care (continuity group), with 57 patients in each group. Outcome measures included treatment compliance, disease knowledge of osteoporosis (diet, exercise, risk factors), quality of life level, and care satisfaction. Results All eligible patients were followed up for one year after discharge from the hospital. Patients with continuity of care showed higher treatment compliance and disease knowledge of diet, exercise, and risk factors than those with routine care (P = .004). Continuity of care was associated with significantly higher MOS 36-item short-form health survey (SF-36) scores (The SF-36 is a self-administered questionnaire containing 36 items that survey overall health status) and nursing satisfaction in patients versus routine care (P = .004). Conclusion Mobile health platform-based continuity of care effectively enhances post-discharge compliance and knowledge of osteoporosis in patients with osteoporosis, thereby improving post-discharge quality of life and satisfaction with care. Multi-center studies involving diverse healthcare settings and patient populations would provide more robust evidence. Moreover, these findings highlight the potential benefits of incorporating mobile health platforms into the care continuum for osteoporosis patients. Also, by utilizing mobile health platforms, healthcare providers can extend their reach beyond hospital settings and provide continuous care and support to patients, potentially reducing the burden on healthcare systems and improving overall population health outcomes.

Abstract
The processing and analysis of massive high-dimensional datasets are important issues in precision livestock farming (PLF). This study explored the use of multivariate analysis tools to analyze environmental data from multiple sensors located throughout a broiler house. An experiment was conducted to collect a comprehensive set of environmental data including particulate matter (TSP, PM10, and PM2.5), ammonia, carbon dioxide, air temperature, relative humidity, and in-cage and aisle wind speeds from 60 locations in a typical commercial broiler house. The dataset was divided into 3 growth phases (wk 1-3, 4-6, and 7-9). Spearman's correlation analysis and principal component analysis (PCA) were used to investigate the latent associations between environmental variables resulting in the identification of variables that played important roles in indoor air quality. Three cluster analysis methods; k-means, k-medoids, and fuzzy c-means cluster analysis (FCM), were used to group the measured parameters based on their environmental impact in the broiler house. In general, the Spearman and PCA results showed that the in-cage wind speed, aisle wind speed, and relative humidity played critical roles in indoor air quality distribution during broiler rearing. All 3 clustering methods were found to be suitable for grouping data, with FCM outperforming the other 2. Using data clustering, the broiler house spaces were divided into 3, 2, and 2 subspaces (clusters) for wk 1 to 3, 4 to 6, and 7 to 9, respectively. The subspace in the center of the house had a poorer air quality than other subspaces.

Abstract
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), a psychological condition triggered by exposure to extreme or chronic stressful events, exhibits a sex bias in incidence and clinical manifestations. Emerging research implicates the gut microbiome in the pathogenesis of PTSD and its roles in stress susceptibility. However, it is unclear whether differential gut microbiota contribute to PTSD susceptibility in male and female rats. Here, we utilized the single prolonged stress animal model and employed unsupervised machine learning to classify stressed animals into stress-susceptible subgroups and stress-resilient subgroups. Subsequently, using 16S V3-V4 rDNA sequencing, we investigated the differential gut microbiota alterations between susceptible and resilient individuals in male and female rats. Our findings revealed distinct changes in gut microbiota composition between the sexes at different taxonomic levels. Furthermore, the abundance of Parabacteroides was lower in rats that underwent SPS modeling compared to the control group. In addition, the abundance of Tenericutes in the stress-susceptible subgroup was higher than that in the control group and stress-resilient subgroup, suggesting that Tenericutes may be able to characterize stress susceptibility. What is particularly interesting here is that Cyanobacteria may be particularly associated with anti-anxiety effects in male rats. This study underscores sex-specific variations in gut microbiota composition in response to stress and sex differences should be taken into account when using macrobiotics for neuropsychiatric treatment, highlighting potential targets for PTSD therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Asymptomatic COVID-19 carriers with normal chest computed tomography (CT) scans have perpetuated the ongoing pandemic of this disease. This retrospective study aimed to use automated machine learning (AutoML) to develop a prediction model based on CT characteristics for the identification of asymptomatic carriers. METHODS Asymptomatic carriers were from Yangzhou Third People's Hospital from August 1st, 2020, to March 31st, 2021, and the control group included a healthy population from a nonepizootic area with two negative RT‒PCR results within 48 h. All CT images were preprocessed using MATLAB. Model development and validation were conducted in R with the H2O package. The models were built based on six algorithms, e.g., random forest and deep neural network (DNN), and a training set (n = 691). The models were improved by automatically adjusting hyperparameters for an internal validation set (n = 306). The performance of the obtained models was evaluated based on a dataset from Suzhou (n = 178) using the area under the curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and F1 score. RESULTS A total of 1,175 images were preprocessed with high stability. Six models were developed, and the performance of the DNN model ranked first, with an AUC value of 0.898 for the test set. The sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, F1 score and accuracy of the DNN model were 0.820, 0.854, 0.849, 0.826, 0.834 and 0.837, respectively. A plot of a local interpretable model-agnostic explanation demonstrated how different variables worked in identifying asymptomatic carriers. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates that AutoML models based on CT images can be used to identify asymptomatic carriers. The most promising model for clinical implementation is the DNN-algorithm-based model.

Abstract
Glyphosate is an ingredient widely used in various commercial formulations, including Roundup®. This study focused on tight junctions and the expression of inflammatory genes in the small intestine of chicks. On the sixth day of embryonic development, the eggs were randomly assigned to three groups: the control group (CON, n = 60), the glyphosate group (GLYP, n = 60), which received 10 mg of active glyphosate/kg egg mass, and the Roundup®-based glyphosate group also received 10 mg of glyphosate. The results indicated that the chicks exposed to glyphosate or Roundup® exhibited signs of oxidative stress. Additionally, histopathological alterations in the small intestine tissues included villi fusion, complete fusion of some intestinal villi, a reduced number of goblet cells, and necrosis of some submucosal epithelial cells in chicks. Genes related to the small intestine (ZO-1, ZO-2, Claudin-1, Claudin-3, JAM2, and Occludin), as well as the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IFNγ, IL-1β, and IL-6), exhibited significant changes in the groups exposed to glyphosate or Roundup® compared to the control group. In conclusion, the toxicity of pure glyphosate or Roundup® likely disrupts the small intestine of chicks by modulating the expression of genes associated with tight junctions in the small intestine.

Abstract
Introduction Infectious diseases are major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, necessitating the rapid identification and accurate diagnosis of pathogens. While unbiased metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) has been extensively utilized in clinical pathogen identification and scientific microbiome detection, there is limited research about the application of nanopore platform-based mNGS in the diagnostic performance of various infectious fluid samples. Methods In this study, we collected 297 suspected infectious fluids from 10 clinical centers and detected them with conventional microbiology culture and nanopore platform-based mNGS. The objective was to assess detective and diagnostic performance of nanopore-sequencing technology (NST) in real-world scenarios. Results Combined with gold-standard culture and clinical adjudication, nanopore sequencing demonstrated nearly 100% positive predictive agreements in microbial-colonized sites, such as the respiratory and urinary tracts. For samples collected from initially sterile body sites, the detected microorganisms were highly suspected pathogens, and the negative predictive agreements were relatively higher than those in the microbial-colonized sites, particularly with 100% in abscess and 95.7% in cerebrospinal fluid. Furthermore, consistent performance was also observed in the identification of antimicrobial resistance genes and drug susceptibility testing of pathogenic strains of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Acinetobacter baumannii. Discussion Rapid NST is a promising clinical tool to supplement gold-standard culture, and it has the potential improve patient prognosis and facilitate clinical treatment of infectious diseases.

Abstract
Objective Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a neuropsychiatric disorder that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. Exposure therapy is a common treatment for PTSD, but it has varying levels of efficacy depending on sex. In this study, we aimed to compare the sexual dimorphism in brain activation during the extinction of fear conditioning in male and female rats by detecting the c-fos levels in the whole brain. Methods Thirty-two rats (Male: n = 16; Female: n = 16) were randomly separated into the extinction group as well as the non-extinction group, and fear conditioning was followed by extinction and non-extinction, respectively. Subsequently, brain sections from the sacrificed animal were performed immunofluorescence and the collected data were analyzed by repeated two-way ANOVAs as well as Pearson Correlation Coefficient. Results Our findings showed that most brain areas activated during extinction were similar in both male and female rats, except for the reuniens thalamic nucleus and ventral hippocampi. Furthermore, we found differences in the correlation between c-fos activation levels and freezing behavior during extinction between male and female rats. Specifically, in male rats, c-fos activation in the anterior cingulate cortex was negatively correlated with the freezing level, while c-fos activation in the retrosplenial granular cortex was positively correlated with the freezing level; but in female rats did not exhibit any correlation between c-fos activation and freezing level. Finally, the functional connectivity analysis revealed differences in the neural networks involved in extinction learning between male and female rats. In male rats, the infralimbic cortex and insular cortex, anterior cingulate cortex and retrosplenial granular cortex, and dorsal dentate gyrus and dCA3 were strongly correlated after extinction. In female rats, prelimbic cortex and basolateral amygdala, insular cortex and dCA3, and anterior cingulate cortex and dCA1 were significantly correlated. Conclusion These results suggest divergent neural networks involved in extinction learning in male and female rats and provide a clue for improving the clinical treatment of exposure therapy based on the sexual difference.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical data of a case of lung adenocarcinoma with Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) resistance transforming into sarcoma, and to conduct a literature review to improve the understanding of the resistance mechanism. Histological transformation is a unique form of acquired resistance of EGFR-TKIs in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Thereinto, the transformation of small cell carcinoma is more common, and the transformation of sarcoma is rarely reported. Methods: Clinicopathological data on the treatment process, pathological features, and clinical outcome of the patient with EGFR-TKIs-resistance lung adenocarcinoma transforming into sarcoma were collected. The literature was reviewed to analyze the pathogenetic mechanism for sarcomatoid carcinoma or sarcoma transformation after drug resistance of adenocarcinoma, as well as the clinical characteristics of the patients and the corresponding therapeutic schemes. Results: We reported a patient with lung adenocarcinoma who developed EGFR-T790M mutation after first-line treatment with icotinib and sarcoma transformation after second-line treatment with almonertinib. Chemotherapy, radioactive particle implantation, antiangiogenic therapy and immunotherapy were followed, but the results were unsatisfactory. There was no report of EGFR-TKIs-resistant lung adenocarcinoma transforming into sarcoma. Among the 14 reports of adenocarcinoma transforming into sarcomatoid carcinoma, 8 cases had EGFR mutation, 3 cases had ALK mutation, 2 cases had ROS1 mutation, and 1 case had no asscoiated sensitive mutation. The median survival of 14 patients with adenocarcinoma transforming to sarcomatoid carcinoma was only 3 months. Conclusions: Sarcoma transformation can be one of the forms of drug resistance in patients with lung adenocarcinoma with EGFR-TKIs. The prognosis of patients with adenocarcinoma after transformation into sarcoma is poor.

Abstract
Traditionally, the clinical evaluation of respiratory diseases was pulmonary function testing, which can be used for the detection of severity and prognosis through pulmonary function parameters. However, this method is limited by the complex process, which is impossible for patients to monitor daily. In order to evaluate pulmonary function parameters conveniently with less time and location restrictions, cough sound is the substitute parameter. In this paper, 371 cough sounds segments from 150 individuals were separated into 309 and 62 as the training and test samples. Short-time Fourier transform (STFT) was applied to transform cough sound into spectrogram, and ResNet50 model was used to extract 2048-dimensional features. Through support vector regression (SVR) model with biological attributes, the data were regressed with pulmonary function parameters, FEV1, FEV1%, FEV1/FVC, FVC, FVC%, and the performance of this models was evaluated with fivefold cross-validation. Combines with deep learning and machine learning technologies, the better results in the case of small samples were achieved. Using the coefficient of determination (R2), the ResNet50 + SVR model shows best performance in five basic pulmonary function parameters evaluation as FEV1(0.94), FEV1%(0.84), FEV1/FVC(0.68), FVC(0.92), and FVC%(0.72). This ResNet50 + SVR hybrid model shows excellent evaluation of pulmonary function parameters during coughing, making it possible to realize a simple and rapid evaluation for pneumonia patients. The technology implemented in this paper is beneficial in judge the patient's condition, realize early screening of respiratory diseases, evaluate postoperative disease changes and detect respiratory infectious diseases without time and location restrictions.

Abstract
Background Close contacts infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis are at high risk of tuberculosis (TB) disease and a priority for preventive treatment. Three tests measure infection: two interferon-gamma release assays (IGRAs) and the tuberculin skin test (TST). The objective of our study was to assess the association of positive test results in contacts with infectiousness of the presumed TB source case. Methods Contacts in a cohort study at 10 United States sites received both IGRAs (QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-Tube (QFT-GIT) and T-SPOT.TB (T-SPOT)) and TST. We defined test conversion as negative for all tests at baseline and positive for at least one on retest. Risk ratios (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) assessed association of positive test results with increased infectiousness of the TB case-defined as acid-fast bacilli (AFB) on sputum microscopy or cavities on chest radiographs- and contact demographics. Results Adjusted for contacts' age, nativity, sex, and race, IGRAs (QFT-GIT RR = 6.1, 95% CI 1.7-22.2; T-SPOT RR = 9.4, 95% CI 1.1-79.1), but not TST (RR = 1.7, 95% CI 0.8-3.7), were more likely to convert among contacts exposed to persons with cavitary TB disease. Conclusions Because IGRA conversions in contacts are associated with infectiousness of the TB case, their use may improve efficiency of health department contact investigations by focusing efforts on those likely to benefit from preventive treatment in the United States.

Abstract
The dysbiosis of lung microbiota and inflammatory factors play a crucial role in the occurrence of lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-induced lung injury. Recently, mogroside V (MGV) has received increasing attention due to its potential health benefits in pneumonia, but its complex mechanism needs further experimental elucidation. In this study, we established an LPS-induced chicken lung injury model to investigate the protective effect of MGV on LPS-induced acute lung injury in broiler and its related mechanisms. A total of 192 one-day-old white-finned broilers were randomly assigned into 4 groups with 6 replicates: 1) control group: basal diet (d 1-44), saline (d 43); 2) LPS group: basal diet (d 1-44), LPS (d 43); 3) MGV group: basal diet + 0.2% MGV (d 1-44), saline (d 43); 4) MGV-LPS group: basal diet + 0.2% MGV (d 1-44), LPS (d 43). The results showed that pathological examination showed that lung tissue inflammation infiltration was reduced after MGV treatment. In addition, MGV can promote the balance of Th17 and Treg cell cytokines, significantly inhibit the expression of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1β (P < 0.01), IL-6 (P < 0.001), IL-17F (P < 0.05)), and decrease immunosuppressive target expression (PD-L1 (P < 0.01), PD-1 (P < 0.001), RORα (P < 0.001)), activating the immune system. Furthermore, 16S rRNA sequencing analysis showed that MGV treatment could increase the abundance of beneficial bacteria in the lung and reduce the abundance of bacteria associated with inflammation. Generally, MGV intervention has a preventive effect on the pathological damage induced by lipopolysaccharides. Its mechanism is related to inhibiting the inflammatory response, regulating the Th17/Treg balance, and maintaining the stability of lung microbiota.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA) remains an intractable reproductive dilemma due to the lack of understanding of the pathogenesis. This study aimed to evaluate the preclinical evidence for the mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) treatment for URSA. METHODS A meticulous literature search was independently performed by two authors across the Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and PubMed databases from inception to April 9, 2023. Each study incorporated was assessed using the Systematic Review Centre for Laboratory Animal Experimentation (SYRCLE) risk of bias tool. The amalgamated standardized mean difference (SMD) accompanied by 95% confidence interval (CI) were deduced through a fixed-effects or random-effects model analysis. RESULTS A total of ten studies incorporating 140 mice were subjected to data analysis. The MSC treatment yielded a significant reduction in the abortion rate within the URSA model (OR = 0.23, 95%CI [0.17, 0.3], P<0.00001). Moreover, it elicited a positive modulatory impact on the expression profiles of several inflammatory cytokines in the decidual tissue of URSA murine models, inclusive of IL4 (SMD 1.63, 95% CI [0.39, 2.86], P = 0.01), IL10 (SMD 1.60, 95% CI [0.58, 2.61], P = 0.002), IFN-γ (SMD -1.66, 95%CI [-2.79, -0.52], P = 0.004), and TNF-α (SMD -1.98, 95% CI [-2.93, -1.04], P< 0.0001). Subgroup analyses underscored that the administration mode of intraperitoneal and uterine horn injections, and sources of bone MSCs and adipose-derived MSCs contributed positively to the expression of IL4, IL10, and decreased the expression of IFN-γ in decidual tissue of URSA (P<0.05). Conversely, the tail vein injections subgroup was observed with no statistical significance (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS The findings underscore the considerable potential of MSCs in URSA therapy. Nonetheless, the demand for enhanced transparency in research design and direct comparisons between various MSC sources and administration routes in URSA is paramount to engendering robust evidence that could pave the way for successful clinical translation.

Abstract
The polarization of Λ and Λ[over ¯] hyperons along the beam direction has been measured relative to the second and third harmonic event planes in isobar Ru+Ru and Zr+Zr collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV. This is the first experimental evidence of the hyperon polarization by the triangular flow originating from the initial density fluctuations. The amplitudes of the sine modulation for the second and third harmonic results are comparable in magnitude, increase from central to peripheral collisions, and show a mild p_{T} dependence. The azimuthal angle dependence of the polarization follows the vorticity pattern expected due to elliptic and triangular anisotropic flow, and qualitatively disagrees with most hydrodynamic model calculations based on thermal vorticity and shear induced contributions. The model results based on one of existing implementations of the shear contribution lead to a correct azimuthal angle dependence, but predict centrality and p_{T} dependence that still disagree with experimental measurements. Thus, our results provide stringent constraints on the thermal vorticity and shear-induced contributions to hyperon polarization. Comparison to previous measurements at RHIC and the LHC for the second-order harmonic results shows little dependence on the collision system size and collision energy.

Abstract
Objectives Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common newly diagnosed malignant tumor in older people. As older patients age, organ function decreases, leading to increased adverse reactions to treatment. The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase tyrosine (ALK) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) therapy are more effective and well-tolerated than chemotherapy, while the rate of genetic testing and subsequent targeted treatment among older patients remains relatively low, the clinical benefit limitation for those patients. This study aims to investigate the mutation characteristics of LUAD diver gene and its relationship with clinicopathological features in older LUAD. Materials and methods A total of 275 patients were diagnosed as LUAD and were over sixty years old. We utilized next-generation sequencing technology to detect and analyze gene mutations in postoperative tissue specimens, including EGFR, KRAS, ALK, ROS1, RET, MET, BRAF, HER2, PIK3CA and NRAS. Results A total of 90.18% (248/275) of older LUAD patients experienced genetic mutations. The EGFR (192, 69.82%) had the highest mutation rate among ten genes, followed by KRAS (21, 7.64%), MET (21, 7.64%), ERBB2 (15, 5.45%), RET (9, 3.27%), ALK (8, 2.91%), ROS1 (8, 2.91%), PIK3CA (6, 2.18%), BRAF (5, 1.82%) and NRAS (1, 0.36%). We also found thirty patients (15.63%) with EGFR mutations also having other gene mutations. The L858R mutation and exon19 deletion were the predominant EGFR mutations, accounting for 84.90% of EGFR-mutated patients. In addition, fifty-one kinds of EGFR mutations were detected, distributed in the protein tyrosine kinase catalytic domain (43, 84.31%), cysteine enriched domain (4, 7.84%), receptor binding domain (3, 5.88%), and EGFR transmembrane domain (1,1.96%). Ten cases of gene fusion mutation were detected. Two rare partner genes, PKHD1 (P60:R34) and STK39 (R33:S11), were detected by ROS1 gene fusion. RET gene fusion revealed a rare companion gene KCND2 (R11:K2). The EGFR mutations were more prevalent in female, non-smoking patients (p < 0.05), and the KRAS mutations were more common in male and smoking patients (p < 0.01). In addition, the BRAF mutations were more likely to occur in the right lung (p < 0.05). Conclusion Older LUAD populations exhibit diverse genetic mutations, which may also exist simultaneously. Simultaneous detection of multiple genes by NGS can accelerate and enhance targeted treatment benefits for older LUAD patients, ultimately improving their quality of life.

Abstract
Introduction Thyroidectomy and thyrotropin suppressive therapy is the widely used surgical treatment for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients. However, systematic metabolic changes of post-operative PTC patients were rarely reported. Methods Here, untargeted metabolomic detection of cohorts from PTC before (t0) and 1-month-after (t1) thyroidectomy, were performed to characterize circulating metabolic signatures after surgical treatment. Results Our results showed PTC patients exhibited lower thyroid stimulating hormone degree, higher total thyroxine, and significant lipid-related metabolic alternations after thyroidectomy, which included 97 upregulations (including 93 lipids) and 5 downregulations (including 2 lipids and 3 nucleotides). Enrichment of metabolic pathways mainly included biosynthesis of fatty acids, purine metabolism, and linoleic acid metabolism. We also demonstrated that differential surgical approaches (hemi- and total thyroidectomy) and post-operative complication phenotypes (insomnia, fatigue), might lead to characteristic metabolic signatures. Discussion This study revealed dynamic changes of metabolite characteristics of PTC patients after surgical treatment, which were associated with clinical thyroid function parameters, surgical approaches, and complication occurrence. It enlightened us to pay more attention on the post-operative metabolic dysregulation of PTC patients and their long-term qualities of life, so as to provide cautious clinical decisions on surgical choices, treatments, and follow-up details.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the efficacy of Femtosecond laser-assisted stromal lenticule addition keratoplasty (SLAK) combined with corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) in the treatment of middle and advanced Keratoconus. Methods: It was a retrospective case series study. Data of 23 cases (24 eyes) of keratoconus treated with femtosecond laser-assisted SLAK combined with CXL in Laser Vision Centre of Xi'an No.1 Hospital from September 2020 to June 2022 were collected, including 16 males and 7 females, aged (23.69±5.18) years. The thickness, diopter number and diameter of the donor corneal stromal lens were assessed. uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), and diopter were recorded before and 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery. Sirius 3D fault corneal topography instrument to measure flat simulated keratometry (Kf), steep simulated keratometry (Ks) and the difference between them (ΔK), as well as central corneal thickness (CCT) and corneal high-order aberration. Results: Six months after surgery, CCT (454.83±50.01) μm were significantly higher than before (384.92±35.45) μm (P<0.05). Six months after surgery, UCVA (1.41±0.32) was significantly lower than before (1.11±0.33)(P<0.05). Six months after surgery, spherical diopter [(-15.73±7.89) D], Kf [(56.82±4.76) D] and Ks [(61.00±4.70) D] were significantly higher than before [(-12.08±5.99) D, (53.55±4.95) D, (58.65±5.10) D] (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in BCVA, column mirror degree and higher order aberrations before and 6 months after surgery(P>0.05). No corneal stromal lens folds, melting and displacement were observed in all eyes during the follow-up period, and no corneal opacity or immune rejection was observed. Conclusions: femtosecond laser-assisted SLAK combined with CXL can significantly increase the corneal thickness of keratoconus and has good effectiveness.

Abstract
The susceptibility to drug cravings evoked by stimuli poses a formidable hurdle in the treatment of addiction and the prevention of relapse. Pharmacological interventions targeting drug-associated memories hold promise for curbing relapse by impeding the process of memory reconsolidation, predominantly governed by cAMP signalling. Exchange Protein Activated by cAMP (Epac) serves as a distinctive mediator of cAMP signalling, which has been implicated in reinforcing the effects of cocaine and facilitating the acquisition. Nonetheless, the role of Epac in heroin-related memory and the subsequent seeking behaviour remains enigmatic. In this study, we explored the impact of Epac activation on the reconsolidation process of drug-related memories associated with heroin self-administration. Over the course of 10 consecutive days, rats underwent training, wherein they acquired the behaviour of nose poking to obtain heroin accompanied by a tone + light cue. This nose-poking behaviour was subsequently extinguished when heroin infusion and cue presentation were discontinued. Subsequently, we administered 8-pCPT-cAMP (8-CPT), an Epac-specific activator, into the basolateral amygdala at various time points, either in the presence or absence of a conditioned stimulus. Our findings demonstrate that administering 8-CPT immediately after memory retrieval effectively reduces cue- and heroin-induced reinstatement, with the observed effects persisting significantly for a minimum of 28 days. However, infusion of 8-CPT for a duration of 6 h following the memory retrieval trial, or without it altogether, had no discernible impact. Thus, these findings strongly suggest that Epac activation can disrupt the reconsolidation of heroin-associated memory, thereby diminishing the reinstatement of heroin-seeking behaviour.

Abstract
Inflammasomes are multi-protein complexes localized within immune and non-immune cells that induce caspase activation, proinflammatory cytokine secretion, and ultimately pyroptosis-a type of cell death. Inflammasomes are involved in a variety of human diseases, especially acute or chronic inflammatory diseases. In this review, we focused on the strong correlation between the NLRP3 inflammasome and various reproductive diseases, including ovarian aging or premature ovarian insufficiency, PCOS, endometriosis, recurrent spontaneous abortion, preterm labor, pre-eclampsia, and male subfertility, as well as the multifaceted role of NLRP3 in the pathogenesis and treatment of these diseases. In addition, we provide an overview of the structure and amplification of inflammasomes. This comprehensive review demonstrates the vital role of NLRP3 inflammasome activation in human reproductive diseases together with the underlying mechanisms, offers new insights for mechanistic studies of reproduction, and provides promising possibilities for the development of drugs targeting the NLRP3 inflammasome for the treatment of reproductive disorders in the future.

Abstract
Respiratory health problems in poultry production are frequent and knotty and thus attract the attention of farmers and researchers. The breakthrough of gene sequencing technology has revealed that healthy lungs harbor rich microbiota, whose succession and homeostasis are closely related to lung health status, suggesting a new idea to explore the mechanism of lung injury in broilers with pulmonary microbiota as the entry point. This study aimed to investigate the succession of pulmonary microbiota in healthy broilers during the growth cycle. Fixed and molecular samples were collected from the lungs of healthy broilers at 1, 3, 14, 21, 28, and 42 d of age. Lung tissue morphology was observed by hematoxylin and eosin staining, and the changes in the composition and diversity of pulmonary microbiota were analyzed using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The results showed that lung index peaked at 3 d, then decreased with age. No significant change was observed in the α diversity of pulmonary microbiota, while the β diversity changed regularly with age during the broilers' growth cycle. The relative abundance of dominant bacteria of Firmicutes and their subordinate Lactobacillus increased with age, while the abundance of Proteobacteria decreased with age. The correlation analysis between the abundance of differential bacteria and predicted function showed that dominant bacteria of Firmicutes, Proteobacteria and Lactobacillus were significantly correlated with most functional abundance, indicating that they may involve in lung functional development and physiological activities of broilers. Collectively, these findings suggest that the lung has been colonized with abundant microbiota in broilers when they were just hatched, and their composition changed regularly with day age. The dominant bacteria, Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, and Lactobacillus, play crucial roles in lung function development and physiological activities. It paves the way for further research on the mechanism of pulmonary microbiota-mediated lung injury in broilers.

Abstract
Pazopanib (PZ) is a multikinase inhibitor, which is mainly used in the treatment of soft tissue sarcoma and advanced renal cancer. However, because of its water insolubility, oral bioavailability is poor. At the same time, photo lability and high dose oral administration lead to severe hepatotoxicity, which is limited in clinical application. In this paper, the novel pazopanib-fumarate disodium glycyrrhizinate nanocrystalline micelles are successfully prepared by liquid-assisted ball milling. The prepared cocrystals and nanocrystalline micelle structures are systematically characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer (FTIR) analysis. In vitro solubility and dissolution experiments show that the solubility and dissolution of nanocrystalline micelles are significantly improved under different simulated physiological conditions. The accelerated stabilization experiments show that the nanocrystalline micelles have good physical and chemical stability and showed excellent stability in water (Zeta potential was 62.39 mV). In addition, the in vivo bioavailability of nanocrystalline micelles is 3 times higher than that of PZ, and the therapeutic threshold (> 20 μg/mL) is up to 30 h. This new strategy provides a feasible solution to the undesirable properties of PZ.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the growing interest in the impact of the gut microbiome on cancer, the relationship between the lung microbiome and lung cancer has received limited investigation. Additionally, the composition of the oral microbiome was found to differ from that of individuals with lung cancer, indicating that these microorganisms may serve as potential biomarkers for the detection of lung cancer. METHODS Forty-three Chinese lung cancer patients were enrolled in the current retrospective study and 16 S rRNA sequencing was performed on saliva, cancerous tissue (CT) and paracancerous tissue (PT) samples. RESULTS Diversity and species richness were significantly different between the oral and lung microbiota. Lung microbiota were largely composed of the phyla Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria. The relative abundance of Promicromonosporacea and Chloroflexi increased in CT, while Enterococcaceae and Enterococcus were enriched in PT (p<0.05). A cancer-related microbiota model was constructed and produced an area under the curve of 0.74 in the training set, indicating discrimination between subjects with and without cancer. CONCLUSIONS Characterization of microbiota in saliva, CT and PT from Chinese lung cancer patients revealed little difference between CT and PT, indicating that the tumor and its microenvironment might influence the local microbiome. A model to distinguish between CT and PT was constructed, which has the potential to enhance our comprehension of the involvement of microbiota in the pathogenesis of lung cancer and identify novel therapeutic targets.

Abstract
The experience of traumatic stress can engender lasting memories associated with the trauma, often resulting in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, only a minority of individuals develop PTSD symptoms upon exposure. The neurobiological mechanisms underlying the pathology of PTSD are poorly understood. Utilizing a rat model of PTSD, the Single Prolonged Stress (SPS) paradigm, we were able to differentiate between resilient and susceptible individuals. Fourteen days after the SPS exposure, we conducted the behavioral analyses using Elevated Plus Maze (EPM) and Open Field (OF) tests to identify male rats as trauma resilient or susceptible. We focused on the microRNA (miRNA) profiles of the infralimbic (IL) and prelimbic (PL) cortical regions, known to be crucial in regulating the stress response. Our investigation of stressed rats exposed to the SPS procedure yielded divergent response, and differential expression microRNAs (DEmiRs) analysis indicated significant differences in the IL and PL transcriptional response. In the IL cortex, the GO analysis revealed enriched GO terms in the resilient versus control comparison, specifically related to mitogen-activated protein kinase and MAP kinase signaling pathways for their molecular functions as well as cytosol and nucleoplasm for the biological process. In the susceptible versus resilient comparison, the changes in molecular functions were only manifested in the functions of regulation of transcription involved in the G1/S transition of the mitotic cell cycle and skeletal muscle satellite cell activation. However, no enriched GO terms were found in the susceptible versus control comparison. In the PL cortex, results indicated that the DEmiRs were enriched exclusively in the cellular component level of the endoplasmic reticulum lumen in the comparison between resilient and control rats. Overall, our study utilized an animal model of PTSD to investigate the potential correlation between stress-induced behavioral dysfunction and variations in miRNA expression. The aforementioned discoveries have the potential to pave the way for novel therapeutic approaches for PTSD, which could involve the targeted regulation of transcriptome expression.

Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a heterogeneous autoimmune disease. PANoptosis is a novel form of programmed cell death involved in various inflammatory diseases. This study aimed to identify the differentially-expressed PANoptosis-related genes (PRGs) involved in immune dysregulation in SLE. Five key PRGs, including ZBP1, MEFV, LCN2, IFI27, and HSP90AB1, were identified. The prediction model with these 5 key PRGs showed a good diagnostic performance in distinguishing SLE patients from controls. These key PRGs were associated with memory B cells, neutrophils and CD8 + T cells. Besides, these key PRGs were significantly enriched in pathways involving the type I interferon responses and IL-6-JAK-STAT3 signaling. The expression levels of the key PRGs were validated in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients with SLE. Our findings suggest that PANoptosis may be implicated in the immune dysregulation in SLE by regulating the interferons and JAK-STAT signaling pathways in memory B cells, neutrophils and CD8 + T cells.

Abstract
This research presents a novel, eco-friendly, vortex-assisted liquid-liquid microextraction (VALLME) approach, integrating hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (DESs) with HPLC for the identification and quantification of nine specific flavonoids in Shanxi aged vinegar (SAV). The parameters of DES-VALLME, including the ratio of trioctylmethylammonium chloride to 1,4-butanediol (1:6), DES volume (150 μL), vortex duration (5 min), the concentration of NaCl (0.40 g), and centrifugation time (10 min), were optimized to achieve the maximum extraction efficiency of target substances. Under these optimal conditions, quantitative analyses performed via HPLC demonstrated a broad linear range of 0.20-50.00 μg/mL and correlation coefficients (r2) greater than 0.9944 for all nine calibration curves. The limits of detection (LOD) and limits of quantitation (LOQ) were 0.09-0.18 μg/mL and 0.30-0.60 μg/mL, respectively, ensuring high sensitivity. The relative standard deviations for intra-day and inter-day variability were within the acceptable range, 2.34-3.77% and 3.04-4.96%, respectively, demonstrating the method's reliability. The recovery rates ranged from 85.97% to 108.11%, underscoring the method's precision. This technique exhibited a significant enrichment effect (enrichment factor: 43 to 296) on SAV flavonoids. Notably, the eco-friendliness of this procedure was evaluated using the Analytical Eco-Scale, Green Analytical Procedure Index, and Analytical Greenness Metric. The results suggested that this technique is a viable green alternative to traditional flavonoid determination methods in SAV. In summary, this novel method provides a theoretical basis for assessing flavonoid content in SAV samples and tracing SAV products. This contribution has significant implications for enhancing analytical techniques in food chemistry and environmental science and the sustainable development of the food industry.

Abstract
Purpose To explore and validate the utility of machine learning (ML) methods using a limited sample size to predict changes in visual acuity and keratometry 2 years following corneal crosslinking (CXL) for progressive keratoconus. Methods The study included all consecutive patients with progressive keratoconus who underwent CXL from July 2014 to December 2020, with a 2 year follow-up period before July 2022 to develop the model. Variables collected included patient demographics, visual acuity, spherical equivalence, and Pentacam parameters. Available case data were divided into training and testing data sets. Three ML models were evaluated based on their performance in predicting case corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) and maximum keratometry (Kmax) changes compared to actual values, as indicated by average root mean squared error (RMSE) and R-squared (R2) values. Patients followed from July 2022 to December 2022 were included in the validation set. Results A total of 277 eyes from 195 patients were included in training and testing sets and 43 eyes from 35 patients were included in the validation set. The baseline CDVA (26.7%) and the ratio of steep keratometry to flat keratometry (K2/K1; 13.8%) were closely associated with case CDVA changes. The baseline ratio of Kmax to mean keratometry (Kmax/Kmean; 20.9%) was closely associated with case Kmax changes. Using these metrics, the best-performing ML model was XGBoost, which produced predicted values closest to the actual values for both CDVA and Kmax changes in testing set (R2 = 0.9993 and 0.9888) and validation set (R2 = 0.8956 and 0.8382). Conclusion Application of a ML approach using XGBoost, and incorporation of identifiable parameters, considerably improved variation prediction accuracy of both CDVA and Kmax 2 years after CXL for treatment of progressive keratoconus.

Abstract
The particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5) from the chicken production system can cause lung injury and reduce productivity through prolonged breath as it attaches large amounts of harmful substances and microbes. Melatonin has acted to regulate physiological and metabolic disorders and improve growth performance during poultry production. This research would investigate the apoptosis caused by chicken house PM2.5 on lung pulmonary epithelial cells and the protective action of melatonin. Here, the basal epithelial cells of human lung adenocarcinoma (A549 cells) were subjected to PM2.5 from the broiler breeding house to investigate the apoptosis induced by PM2.5 as well as the alleviation of melatonin. The apoptosis was aggravated by PM2.5 (12.5 and 25 μg/mL) substantially, and the expression of Bcl-2, Bad, Bax, PERK, and CHOP increased dramatically after PM2.5 treatment. Additionally, the up-regulation of cleaved caspase-9 and cleaved caspase-3 as well as endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS)-related proteins, including ATF6 and CHOP, was observed due to PM2.5 exposure. It is worth noting that melatonin could support A549 cells' survival, in which reduced expression of Bax, Bad, cleaved caspase-3, and cleaved caspase-9 appeared. Concurrently, the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) was down-regulated and enhanced the intracellular content of total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) and catalase (CAT) after treatment by PM2.5 together with melatonin. Collectively, our study underlined that melatonin exerted an anti-apoptotic action on A549 cells by strengthening their antioxidant capacity.

Abstract
Objective This study aims to investigate the correlation between sleep duration and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in the general population. Methods A total of 26,977 participants aged ≥18 years were included in the analysis from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database covering the period from 2005 to 2014. Data on cardiovascular and all-cause deaths were collected until December 2019. Sleep duration was assessed using a structured questionnaire, and participants were categorized into five groups based on their reported sleep duration (≤5, 6, 7, 8, or ≥9 h). Kaplan-Meier survival curves were employed to examine the mortality rates across different sleep duration groups. Multivariate Cox regression models were utilized to explore the association between sleep duration and mortality. Additionally, a restricted cubic spline regression model was employed to identify the non-linear relationship between sleep duration and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Results The average age of participants was 46.23 ± 18.48 years, with 49.9% of the subjects being male. Over a median follow-up period of 9.42 years, 3,153 (11.7%) participants died from all-cause mortality, among which 819 (3.0%) were attributed to cardiovascular causes. The groups with sleep durations of ≥9 and ≤5 h exhibited the lowest cumulative survival rates for all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality, respectively. When using a sleep duration of 7 h as the reference, the hazard ratios (with 95% confidence intervals) for all-cause mortality were 1.28 (1.14-1.44) for ≤5 h, 1.10 (0.98-1.23) for 6 h, 1.21 (1.10-1.34) for 8 h, and 1.53 (1.35-1.73) for ≥9 h. The hazard ratios (with 95% confidence intervals) for cardiovascular mortality were 1.32 (1.04-1.67) for ≤5 h, 1.22 (0.97-1.53) for 6 h, 1.29 (1.05-1.59) for 8 h, and 1.74 (1.37-2.21) for ≥9 h. A U-shaped non-linear relationship between sleep duration and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality was observed, with inflection point thresholds at 7.32 and 7.04 h, respectively. Conclusion The findings suggest that the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality is minimized when sleep duration is approximately 7 h.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate whether dietary fiber pectin can alleviate PM2.5-induced pulmonary inflammation and the potential mechanism. PM2.5 samples were collected from a nursery pig house. The mice were divided into three groups: the control group, PM2.5 group and PM2.5 + pectin group. The mice in the PM2.5 group were intratracheally instilled with PM2.5 suspension twice a week for four consecutive weeks, and those in the PM2.5 + pectin group were subject to the same PM2.5 exposure, but fed with a basal diet supplemented with 5% pectin. The results showed that body weight and feed intake were not different among the treatments (p > 0.05). However, supplementation with pectin relieved PM2.5-induced pulmonary inflammation, presenting as slightly restored lung morphology, decreased mRNA expression levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-17 in the lung, decreased MPO content in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BLAF), and even decreased protein levels of IL-1β and IL-6 in the serum (p < 0.05). Dietary pectin altered the composition of the intestinal microbiota, increasing the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes and decreasing the ratio of Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes. At the genus level, short-chain fatty acid (SCFA)-producing bacteria, such as Bacteroides, Anaerotruncus, Prevotella 2, Parabacteroides, Ruminococcus 2 and Butyricimonas, were enriched in the PM2.5 +pectin group. Accordingly, dietary pectin increased the concentrations of SCFAs, including acetate, propionate, butyrate and valerate, in mice. In conclusion, dietary fermentable fiber pectin can relieve PM2.5-induced pulmonary inflammation via alteration of intestinal microbiota composition and SCFA production. This study provides a new insight into reducing the health risk associated with PM2.5 exposure.

Abstract
Introduction Root-knot nematode disease is one of the world's most serious vegetable crop diseases. In recent years, Trichoderma spp. has been widely used in root-knot nematode disease control as a biological control agent. Methods Virulent and attenuated strains of Trichoderma citrinoviride mediated resistance and biological control mechanism in tomato were determined. Results Preliminary experiments found differences in nematicidal virulence among Trichoderma citrinoviride. The 24-hour corrected mortality rate of the virulent strainT1910 was as high as 92.37%, with an LC50 of 0.5585 against the second juveniles (J2s) of Meloidogyne incognita. And the attenuated strain TC9 was 23.01%, the LC50 was 2.0615, so the virulent strain T1910 had a more substantial effect on the J2s than the attenuated strain. We found that the strong virulent strain T1910 have a good control effect on M. incognita by the pot experiment of tomato than that of the attenuated virulent strain TC9,especially the J2 and J4 numbers were inhibited inside the root knots of tomato. Theinhibition rates of virulent strains reached 85.22% and 76.91%, followed by attenuatedstrain TC9, which were 63.16% and 59.17%, respectively. To reveal the differences intomato defense pathways induced by different virulent strains, qRT-PCR was further usedto detect changes in the expression of inducement-related genes. The results showed thatthe TC9 was significantly upregulated at 5dpi, LOX1, PR1, and PDF1.2. The PR5 gene ofthe virulent strain T1910 was highly upregulated, and the JA pathway was activated laterbut weaker than the attenuated strain. The results of this study revealed that thebiocontrol mechanism of T. citrinoviride as poison killing through the virulent strain T1910 and induced resistance to M. incognita through attenuated strain, although virulence degradation also has an induced resistance effect. Moreover, the attenuated strain TC9 stimulated tomato immune response earlier than the virulent strain by nematode-associated molecular pattern-triggered (NAMP). Discussion Therefore, the research elucidated the mechanism of multiple control of Trichoderma spp. against M. incognita.

Abstract
Dietary fiber (DF) was extracted from navel orange peel residue by enzyme (E-DF) and ultrasound-assisted deep eutectic solvent (US-DES-DF), and its physicochemical and prebiotic properties were characterized. Based on Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, all DF samples exhibited typical polysaccharide absorption spectra, indicating that DES could separate lignin while leaving the chemical structure of DF unchanged, yielding significantly higher extraction yields (76.69 ± 1.68%) compared to enzymatic methods (67.27 ± 0.13%). Moreover, ultrasound-assisted DES extraction improved the properties of navel orange DFs by significantly increasing the contents of soluble dietary fiber and total dietary fiber (3.29 ± 1.33% and 10.13 ± 0.78%, respectively), as well as a notable improvement in the values of water-holding capacity, oil-holding capacity, and water swelling capacity. US-DES-DF outperformed commercial citrus fiber in stimulating the proliferation of probiotic Bifidobacteria strains in vitro. Overall, ultrasound-assisted DES extraction exhibited potential as an industrial extraction method, and US-DES-DF could serve as a valuable functional food ingredient. These results provide a new perspective on the prebiotic properties of dietary fibers and the preparation process of prebiotics.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To retrospectively analyze the effect of anterolateral femoral free flap transplantation in repairing hand and foot soft tissue defects and the risk factors for skin flap necrosis. METHODS The clinical data of 62 patients with hand and foot soft tissue defects admitted to Department of Hand and Foot Microsurgery in Yuyao People's Hospital of Zhejiang Province from January 2018 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the different methods of skin flap transplantation, these patients were divided into a control group (n=30, conventional skin flap transplantation) and an observation group (n=32, anterolateral femoral free skin flap transplantation). The clinical outcomes and postoperative flap survival rate were compared between the two groups. The risk factors of flap necrosis were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression. RESULTS The surgical time, intraoperative blood loss and hospital stay in the observation group were significantly less than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The survival rate of skin flap in the observation group was significantly higher than in the control group (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that intraoperatively incomplete hemostasis, inappropriate selection of anastomotic vessels, irrational use of antibiotics, infection and unstable fixation were independent risk factors for skin flap necrosis following hand and foot soft tissue defects surgery. CONCLUSION Anterolateral femoral free flap transplantation is beneficial to improve the clinical outcomes in patients with hand or foot soft tissue defects, increase the survival rate of skin flap and promote recovery. Incomplete hemostasis during operation, inappropriate choice of anastomotic vessels, irrational application of antibiotics, concurrent infection and unstable fixation are independent risk factors for postoperative flap necrosis.

Abstract
Importance Baseline findings from the China Dialysis Calcification Study (CDCS) revealed a high prevalence of vascular calcification (VC) among patients with end-stage kidney disease; however, data on VC progression were limited. Objectives To understand the progression of VC at different anatomical sites, identify risk factors for VC progression, and assess the association of VC progression with the risk of cardiovascular events and death among patients receiving maintenance dialysis. Design, Setting, and Participants This cohort study was a 4-year follow-up assessment of participants in the CDCS, a nationwide multicenter prospective cohort study involving patients aged 18 to 74 years who were undergoing hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. Participants were recruited from 24 centers across China between May 1, 2014, and April 30, 2015, and followed up for 4 years. A total of 1489 patients receiving maintenance dialysis were included in the current analysis. Data were analyzed from September 1 to December 31, 2021. Exposures Patient demographic characteristics and medical history; high-sensitivity C-reactive protein laboratory values; serum calcium, phosphorus, and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) values; and previous or concomitant use of medications. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was progression of VC at 3 different anatomical sites (coronary artery, abdominal aorta, and cardiac valves) and identification of risk factors for VC progression. Participants received assessments of coronary artery calcification (CAC), abdominal aortic calcification (AAC), and cardiac valve calcification (CVC) at baseline, 24 months, 36 months, and 48 months. Secondary outcomes included (1) the association between VC progression and the risk of all-cause death, cardiovascular (CV)-related death, and a composite of all-cause death and nonfatal CV events and (2) the association between achievement of serum calcium, phosphorus, and iPTH target levels and the risk of VC progression. Results Among 1489 patients, the median (IQR) age was 51.0 (41.0-60.0) years; 59.5% of patients were male. By the end of 4-year follow-up, progression of total VC was observed in 86.5% of patients; 69.6% of patients had CAC progression, 72.4% had AAC progression, and 33.4% had CVC progression. Common risk factors for VC progression at the 3 different anatomical sites were older age and higher fibroblast growth factor 23 levels. Progression of CAC was associated with a higher risk of all-cause death (model 1 [adjusted for age, sex, and body mass index]: hazard ratio [HR], 1.97 [95% CI, 1.16-3.33]; model 2 [adjusted for all factors in model 1 plus smoking status, history of diabetes, and mean arterial pressure]: HR, 1.89 [95% CI, 1.11-3.21]; model 3 [adjusted for all factors in model 2 plus calcium, phosphorus, intact parathyroid hormone, and fibroblast growth factor 23 levels and calcium-based phosphate binder use]: HR, 1.92 [95% CI, 1.11-3.31]) and the composite of all-cause death and nonfatal CV events (model 1: HR, 1.98 [95% CI, 1.19-3.31]; model 2: HR, 1.91 [95% CI, 1.14-3.21]; model 3: HR, 1.95 [95% CI, 1.14-3.33]) after adjusting for all confounding factors except the presence of baseline calcification. Among the 3 targets of calcium, phosphorus, and iPTH, patients who achieved no target levels (model 1: odds ratio [OR], 4.75 [95% CI, 2.65-8.52]; model 2: OR, 4.81 [95% CI, 2.67-8.66]; model 3 [for this analysis, adjusted for all factors in model 2 plus fibroblast growth factor 23 level and calcium-based phosphate binder use]: OR, 2.76 [95% CI, 1.48-5.16]), 1 target level (model 1: OR, 3.71 [95% CI, 2.35-5.88]; model 2: OR, 3.62 [95% CI, 2.26-5.78]; model 3: OR, 2.19 [95% CI, 1.33-3.61]), or 2 target levels (model 1: OR, 2.73 [95% CI, 1.74-4.26]; model 2: OR, 2.69 [95% CI, 1.71-4.25]; model 3: OR, 1.72 [95% CI, 1.06-2.79]) had higher odds of CAC progression compared with patients who achieved all 3 target levels. Conclusions and Relevance In this study, VC progressed rapidly in patients undergoing dialysis, with different VC types associated with different rates of prevalence and progression. Consistent achievement of serum calcium, phosphorus, and iPTH target levels was associated with a lower risk of CAC progression. These results may be useful for increasing patient awareness and developing appropriate strategies to improve the management of chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder among patients undergoing dialysis.

Abstract
To get a tumor-targeted contrast agent for imaging guide resection of tumors, we designed a novel fluorescent probe based on the heptamethine cyanine core, Cy7-MO, which has excellent water solubility and near-infrared photophysical and lysosomal targeting properties. The chemical structure of Cy7-MO was characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and high-resolution mass spectrometry. The toxicity of Cy7-MO was evaluated by cell counting kit-8. Then, a cellular-level study was conducted to evaluate the suborganelle localization in 4T1-Luc1 cells, and it was also used for surgical navigation in orthotopic breast tumor resection in vivo. The results showed that Cy7-MO was well targeted to lysosomes. Importantly, the Cy7-MO probe was found to be well tolerable and exhibited excellent biocompatibility. Moreover, the orthotopic breast tumor margin was clearly visualized through fluorescence guiding of Cy7-MO. Finally, the correct tumor tissues were completely removed, and a negative margin was obtained successfully, which demonstrated an enhanced precision of surgery.

Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a deadly hematological malignancy. Cellular morphology detection of bone marrow smears based on the French-American-British (FAB) classification system remains an essential criterion in the diagnosis of hematological malignancies. However, the diagnosis and discrimination of distinct FAB subtypes of AML obtained from bone marrow smear images are tedious and time-consuming. In addition, there is considerable variation within and among pathologists, particularly in rural areas, where pathologists may not have relevant expertise. Here, we established a comprehensive database encompassing 8245 bone marrow smear images from 651 patients based on a retrospective dual-center study between 2010 and 2021 for the purpose of training and testing. Furthermore, we developed AMLnet, a deep-learning pipeline based on bone marrow smear images, that can discriminate not only between AML patients and healthy individuals but also accurately identify various AML subtypes. AMLnet achieved an AUC of 0.885 at the image level and 0.921 at the patient level in distinguishing nine AML subtypes on the test dataset. Furthermore, AMLnet outperformed junior human experts and was comparable to senior experts on the test dataset at the patient level. Finally, we provided an interactive demo website to visualize the saliency maps and the results of AMLnet for aiding pathologists' diagnosis. Collectively, AMLnet has the potential to serve as a fast prescreening and decision support tool for cytomorphological pathologists, especially in areas where pathologists are overburdened by medical demands as well as in rural areas where medical resources are scarce.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION IMPROVE Bleeding Risk Score (BRS) is known to be validated and widely accepted in medical patients. However, its relevance in surgical patients has so far not been explored. External validation of the IMPROVE BRS on bleeding in surgical patients can hopefully improve clinical practice (for surgical patients). METHODS Data from 6986 surgical patients were collected from the DissolVE-2 cohort. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to assess the incidences of major bleeding and any bleeding among surgical patients within 14 days of admission. A cut-off value of BRS ≥7 indicated a higher risk of bleeding. Risk factors associated with major and any bleeding were analysed by the Cox regression method. Model discrimination was evaluated by area under the receiver operator characteristic curves (AUC). Calibration curves and Hosmer-Lemeshow χ2 statistics were used to measure the difference between predicted and observed bleeding risks. RESULTS A total of 6399 surgical patients were included in the final validation cohort. The cumulative incidence rate of any bleeding was 3.9 % (95 % confidence interval [CI], 3.4-4.5), of which the incidence rate of major bleeding was 1.2 % (95 % CI, 0.9-1.6). Among patients with a BRS of ≥7, 16.3 % reported any bleeding, and 26.3 % reported major bleeding. The IMPROVE BRS had a better discriminative power (AUC = 0.69) and excellent goodness of fit (Hosmer-Lemeshow test, P = 0.208) for the prediction of major bleeding events as compared with any bleeding (AUC = 0.55; Hosmer-Lemeshow test, P = 0.004). The calibration plot suggested a more accurate prediction for major bleeding events. Moreover, the IMPROVE BRS had a higher AUC value of 0.83 and better goodness of fit (P = 0.2616) for major bleeding in patients undergoing abdominal surgery than other surgery types. CONCLUSION The IMPROVE BRS is a simple and practical technique that can help in predicting the risk of major bleeding in surgical patients, improving functional and safety outcomes of hospitalized patients with surgery.

Abstract
Our and in vitro studies had confirmed that mechanosensitive ATP release and accumulation in acupoints was elicited by acupuncture (AP), which might be a pivotal step for triggering AP analgesia. But to date, the dynamics of extracellular ATP (eATP) in the interstitial space during AP process was poorly known, mainly due to the low temporal resolution of the current detection approach. This study attempted to capture rapid eATP signals in vivo in the process of needling, and further explored the role of this eATP mobilization in initiating AP analgesic effect. Ipsilateral 20-min needling was applied on Zusanli acupoint (ST36) of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA)-induced ankle arthritis rats. Pain thresholds were assessed in injured-side hindpaws. eATP in the interstitial space was microdialyzed and real-time quantified by luciferin-luciferase assay at 1-min interval with the aid of the microfluid chip. We revealed in behavioral tests that modulation of eATP levels in ST36 influenced AP analgesic effect on ankle arthritis. A transient eATP accumulation was induced by needling that started to mobilize at 4 min, climbed to the peak of 11.21 nM within 3.25 min and gradually recovered. Such AP-induced eATP mobilization was significantly impacted by ankle inflammation, needling depth, needle manipulation, and the presence of local ecto-nucleotidases. This work reveals that needling elicits a transient eATP mobilization in acupoints, which contributes to initiating AP analgesia. This study will help us better understand the peripheral mechanism of AP analgesia and guide clinicians to optimize the needle manipulations to improve AP efficacy.

Abstract
The high concentration of particulate matter (PM) in broiler houses seriously endangers the biological safety of broilers and causes low growth performance, deserving more attention. This study aimed to investigate the effects of PM collected from a broiler house on the lung and systemic inflammatory responses and liver lipid anabolic process in broilers. Broilers were systemically exposed to fresh air (control) and 4 mg·m−3 and 8 mg·m−3 total suspended particles (TSP). Lung, liver, and serum were sampled after 7 (E7) and 14 (E14) days of PM exposure and 7 days after self-recovery (R 7). Corresponding kits were used to assay the inflammatory cytokines and serum biochemical indicators. The expression levels of genes related to lipid metabolism were detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay. The results showed a significant decrease in the average daily gain in broilers for 7 days of PM exposure (p < 0.05) and clear lung and liver inflammations in PM groups. In addition, upregulation of lung interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-8 and serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and triglyceride (TG) occurred after 7 days of PM exposure (p < 0.05), and upregulation of lung serum tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and cholesterol (CHOL) occurred after 14 days of PM exposure (p < 0.05). A decrease in serum total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-px) levels was found after 14 days of PM exposure (p < 0.05), and the GSH-px level was maintained until 7 days after cessation of exposure (p < 0.05). Seven days after cessation of exposure, the expression levels of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase 2 (Hmgcs2) and fatty acid synthase (Fas) genes significantly increased (p < 0.05) and decreased (p < 0.05), respectively. These results demonstrate that exposure to PM in broiler houses can induce systemic inflammation and dyslipidemia through local pulmonary inflammation and also exert toxic effects on the liver by disturbing the expression of genes involved in the hepatic lipid anabolic process.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The literatures have demonstrated that Teach-back method is an effective communication tool to understand health education, especially in the elderly patients. However, there is limited research of Teach-back method in preoperative education for outpatient surgical patients. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of the Teach-back method on preoperative anxiety and surgical cooperation in elderly patients undergoing outpatient ophthalmology surgery. METHODS One hundred sixteen elderly patients who underwent outpatient ophthalmology surgery were selected as the research objects. They were divided into the observation group (58 cases) and the control group (58 cases). The Teach-back preoperative education was adopted in the observation group and the standard preoperative education method was adopted in the control group. The degree of anxiety, surgical cooperation, and awareness of health knowledge were compared between the 2 groups, and the variations of blood pressure and heart rate, as well as the highest values of intraoperative blood pressure and heart rate before and after method, were recorded and compared. RESULTS The preoperative systolic blood pressure in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group. The intraoperative (the highest value) heart rate, systolic blood pressure, and diastolic blood pressure in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P < .05). After intervention, the anxiety score and information demand score of the observation group were lower than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P < .05). The degree of surgery cooperation and awareness of perioperative health knowledge in the observation group were all higher than those in the control group; the differences were statistically significant (P < .05). CONCLUSION The Teach-back method could relieve the preoperative anxiety of the patients, improve the quality of patients surgery cooperation, and facilitate the awareness of health knowledge. Moreover, it could effectively improve the intraoperative stress response of the elderly patients and reduce the large fluctuations of blood pressure and heart rate.

Abstract
PURPOSE The CD20 antigen is expressed on more than 90% of B-cell lymphomas. It is appealing for targeted therapy, because it does not shed or modulate. A chimeric monoclonal antibody more effectively mediates host effector functions and is itself less immunogenic than are murine antibodies. PATIENTS AND METHODS This was a multiinstitutional trial of the chimeric anti-CD20 antibody, IDEC-C2B8. Patients with relapsed low grade or follicular lymphoma received an outpatient treatment course of IDEC-C2B8 375 mg/m2 intravenously weekly for four doses. RESULTS From 31 centers, 166 patients were entered. Of this intent-to-treat group, 48% responded. With a median follow-up duration of 11.8 months, the projected median time to progression for responders is 13.0 months. Serum antibody levels were sustained longer after the fourth infusion than after the first, and were higher in responders and in patients with lower tumor burden. The majority of adverse events occurred during the first infusion and were grade 1 or 2; fever and chills were the most common events. Only 12% of patients had grade 3 and 3% grade 4 toxicities. A human antichimeric antibody was detected in only one patient. CONCLUSION The response rate of 48% with IDEC-C2B8 is comparable to results with single-agent cytotoxic chemotherapy. Toxicity was mild. Attention needs to be paid to the rate of antibody infusion, with titration according to toxicity. Further investigation of this agent is warranted, including its use in conjunction with standard chemotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) is an effective treatment for progressive keratoconus. Multiple CXL modalities are clinically available. The present study compared the 1 year outcomes of five types of CXL procedures for progressive keratoconus in a Chinese population using generalized estimating equations (GEE). METHODS This retrospective study included 239 eyes in 171 patients with keratoconus who underwent CXL and were followed up for 1 year. Five CXL procedures were assessed, including Accelerated Transepithelial CXL, Iontophoresis CXL for 10 min, CXL plus phototherapeutic keratectomy (CXL-plus-PTK), High-Fluence Accelerated CXL, and Accelerated CXL. Patients treated with the Accelerated CXL procedure represented the reference group. Primary outcomes were visual acuity change, spherical equivalence, endothelial cell density, mean keratometry (Kmean), maximum keratometry (Kmax), minimum corneal thickness (MCT), and the ABCD Grading System, consisting of A (staging index for ARC; ARC = anterior radius of curvature), B (staging index for PRC, PRC = posterior radius of curvature), and C (staging index for MCT) values 1 year postoperatively compared to baseline. Secondary outcomes were corrected GEE comparisons from each procedure versus the Accelerated CXL group. RESULTS The Accelerated Transepithelial CXL group had lower performance than the Accelerated CXL group according to Kmean and Kmax. The CXL-plus-PTK group performed significantly better than the reference group as reflected by Kmax (β = -0.935, P = 0.03). However, the CXL-plus-PTK group did not perform as well for B and C, and the Iontophoresis CXL group performed better for C. CONCLUSIONS The CXL-plus-PTK procedure was more effective than the Accelerated CXL procedure based on Kmax, and the Iontophoresis CXL procedure performed better on the C value based on the ABCD Grading System.
