Abstract
Alpha-2-macroglobulin (A2M) is an extracellular macromolecule mainly known for its role as a broad-spectrum protease inhibitor in mammals. However, the immune recognition and regulation mechanisms of A2M in invertebrates are still not well investigated. In the current study, the role of sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus A2M in the regulation of innate immune responses was explored. We found that AjA2M promotes phagocytosis of Vibrio splendidus in coelomocytes of sea cucumber. Then two major functional structural domains of AjA2M, the thioester domain (TED) and the receptor-binding structural domain (RBD) were cloned. It was found that the AjA2M-TED binds to pathogens while causing Vibrio splendidus aggregation; the AjA2M-RBD interacts with the Glucose Regulated Protein 78 (AjGRP78), subsequently AjGRP78 accelerates the degradation of Vibrio splendidus in lysosomes by facilitating polymerisation and rearrangement of the cytoskeleton. Collectively, the findings together suggest that A2M-GRP78 axis mediates immune signaling pathway of phagocytosis and AjA2M has been characterized to play an essential crucial role in antibacterial immune responses of invertebrates.

Abstract
CONTEXT Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorders in women. Retinoid-interferon-induced mortality 19 (GRIM19) is a functional component of mitochondrial complex I that plays a role in cellular energy metabolism. However, the role of GRIM19 in the pathogenesis of PCOS is still unclear. OBJECTIVE To investigate the role of GRIM19 in the pathogenesis of PCOS. DESIGN We first measured the expression of GRIM19 in human granulosa cells (hGCs) from patients with and without PCOS (n = 16 per group), and then established a PCOS mouse model with WT and Grim19+/- mice for in vivo experiments. Glucose uptake-related genes RAC1 and GLUT4 and energy metabolism levels in KGN cells were examined in vitro by knocking down GRIM19 in the cell lines. Additionally, ovulation-related genes such as p-ERK1/2, HAS2, and PTX3 were also studied to determine their expression levels. RESULTS GRIM19 expression was reduced in hGCs of PCOS patients, which was negatively correlated with BMI and serum testosterone level. Grim19+/- mice with PCOS exhibited a markedly anovulatory phenotype and disturbed glycolipid metabolism. In vitro experiments, GRIM19 deficiency inhibited the RAC1/GLUT4 pathway, reducing insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in KGN cells. Moreover, GRIM19 deficiency induced mitochondrial dysfunction, defective glucose metabolism, and apoptosis. In addition, GRIM19 deficiency suppressed the expression of ovulation-related genes in KGN cells, which was regulated by dihydrotestosterone mediated androgen receptor. CONCLUSIONS GRIM19 deficiency may mediate ovulation and glucose metabolism disorders in PCOS patients. Our results suggest that GRIM19 may be a new target for diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
1. The ferritin heavy chain (FHC) has a vital impact on follicular development in geese, due to its ability to regulate apoptosis of granulosa cells (GCs) and follicular atresia. However, its specific regulatory mechanisms remain unclear. The present study characterised how FHC regulates oxidative stress, cell proliferation and apoptosis in goose GCs by interfering with and overexpressing the FHC gene.2. After 72 h of interference with FHC expression, the activity of GCs decreased remarkably (p < 0.05), reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and the expression levels of antioxidant enzyme genes catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) increased significantly (p < 0.05). The overexpression of FHC for 72 h was found to significantly reduce the expression of CAT and SOD genes (p < 0.05).3. Interfering with FHC expression revealed that the expression levels of the cell proliferation gene Aurora kinase A (AURORA-A) were significantly decreased (p < 0.05), while the expression levels of the apoptosis genes B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) and cysteine aspartate-specific protease 8 (CASPASE 8) increased (p < 0.05). Further research has shown that, when interfering with FHC expression for 72 h, apoptosis rate increased by 1.19-fold (p < 0.05), but the current data showed a lower apoptosis rate after FHC overexpression by 59.41%, 63.39%, and 52.31% at three different treatment times (p < 0.05).4. In conclusion, FHC improved the antioxidant capacity of GCs, promotes GCs proliferation, and inhibits GCs apoptosis of ovarian follicles in Sichuan white geese.

Abstract
Cresyl Diphenyl Phosphate (CDP), as a novel organophosphate esters (OPEs), achieves widely used and exposed in multiple industries. However, its male reproductive toxicity and underlying mechanism remains unclear. In vivo, male mice were gavaged with CDP (0, 4, 20, or 100 mg/kg/d) for 8 weeks. And we treated TM3, TM4 and GC-2 cells with 0, 10, 25, and 50 μM CDP for 24 h to detect its reproductive toxicity effect in vitro. In our study, we revealed that CDP inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis in mice testis and GC-2 cells, thereby leading to the decreased sperm quality. In mechanism, CDP trigger the oxidative stress and ROS production, thus partially causing DNA damage and cell apoptosis. Moreover, CDP exposure causes injury to Ledyig cells and Sertoli cells, thus disturbing the testicular microenvironment and inhibiting spermatogonia proliferation. In conclusion, this research reveals multiple adverse impacts of CDP on the male reproductive system and calls for further study of the toxicological effects of CDP on human health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an exceedingly intractable issue affecting female endocrine and reproductive health. However, the etiology and intricate pathological mechanisms of PCOS remain unclear. Nowadays, aging was found to share multiple common pathological mechanisms with PCOS, which causes probing into the pathogenesis of PCOS from senescence. However, no bioinformatics analyses have specifically focused on connection between PCOS and ovarian aging. METHODS Differentially expressed aging-related genes in PCOS were identified and then analyzed using function enrichment method. Hub genes were determined based on multiple algorithms, and expression validation of hub genes was performed in both datasets and experiments (human granulosa-like tumor cell line, KGN; human Granulosa Cell, hGCs). Finally, a transcription factor-miRNA-gene network of hub genes was constructed. RESULTS Here, we identified 73 aging-related differential expression genes (ARDEGs) by intersecting DEGs in PCOS and senescence-related gene set. Furthermore, we performed biological functions and potential pathways of ARDEGs and potential hub genes were also screened by multiple algorithms. From the perspective of immune dysfunction, we analyzed the correlation between PCOS and immune cells. Finally, TF-miRNA-gene networks were constructed. Finally, TF-miRNA-gene networks were constructed. CONCLUSIONS Our work aimed to elucidate the relation between PCOS and cellular senescence based on bioinformatics strategy, deepening the understanding of mechanisms and to seek for novel therapy strategies for improving reproductive lifespan and female health. Exploring the potential molecular mechanism of cell aging in PCOS is expected to bring a new breakthrough for PCOS diagnosis and therapy strategies. And this, might deepen our understanding about intricate mechanisms of ovarian aging.

Abstract
The neural stimulation of the vagus nerve is able to modulate various functions of the parasympathetic response in different organs. The stimulation of the vagus nerve is a promising approach to treating inflammatory diseases, obesity, diabetes, heart failure, and hypertension. The complexity of the vagus nerve requires highly selective stimulation, allowing the modulation of target-specific organs without side effects. Here, we address this issue by adapting a neural stimulator and developing an intraneural electrode for the particular modulation of the vagus nerve. The neurostimulator parameters such as amplitude, pulse width, and pulse shape were modulated. Single-, and multi-channel stimulation was performed at different amplitudes. For the first time, a polyimide thin-film neural electrode was designed for the specific stimulation of the vagus nerve. In vivo experiments were performed in the adult minipig to validate to elicit electrically evoked action potentials and to modulate physiological functions, validating the spatial selectivity of intraneural stimulation. Electrochemical tests of the electrode and the neurostimulator showed that the stimulation hardware was working correctly. Stimulating the porcine vagus nerve resulted in spatially selective modulation of the vagus nerve. ECAP belonging to alpha and beta fibers could be distinguished during single- and multi-channel stimulation. We have shown that the here presented system is able to activate the vagus nerve and can therefore modulate the heart rate, diastolic pressure, and systolic pressure. The here presented system may be used to restore the cardiac loop after denervation by implementing biomimetic stimulation patterns. Presented methods may be used to develop intraneural electrodes adapted for various applications.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) In conventional adaptive radiotherapy (ART) for pancreatic cancer, contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) helps to more precisely delineate primary gross tumor volume (GTV) than non-enhanced CT (NECT). However, frequent use of contrast medium can damage kidneys and prolong treatment time. Moreover, traditional manual delineation is labor-intensive and highly dependent on the experience of oncologists. Currently, automatic delineation based on deep learning with Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN)-based CT synthesis is one of the most feasible solutions to these problems. MATERIALS/METHODS A dataset of 35 pancreatic cancer patients was retrospectively collected from May 2021 to December 2022. All patients consist of a pair of NECT and CECT. We designed and developed an automatic delineation framework (Proposed) for GTV of pancreatic cancer based on Trans-cycleGAN and a modified 3D U-Net. TranscycleGAN can not only synthesize CECT from NECT, but can also augment the amount of CT images; then all real and synthesized CT images were used to train the modified 3D U-Net for automatic delineation of GTV; finally, our framework was able to automatically delineate GTV by NECT, but not only by CECT. Our framework was evaluated by dice similarity coefficient (DSC), 95% Harsdorff distance (95HD) and average surface distance (ASD) with oncologists' manual delineation ("gold standard"). RESULTS The evaluation results were summarized in Table 1. The proposed framework achieved the best automatic delineation results by NECT, which was superior to that of CECT: 0.917 & 0.903 of DSC, 2.498mm & 3.029mm of HD95, 0.481mm & 0.534mm of ASD, p < 0.05 for DSC and HD95. Specifically, it is significantly superior to the automatic delineation results using U-Net by CECT 0.917 & 0.818 of DSC, 2.498mm & 13.228mm of HD95, 0.481mm & 3.633mm of ASD, p < 0.05 for DSC. CONCLUSION We proposed an automatic delineation framework for contouring GTV in ART of pancreatic cancer based on deep learning and Trans-cycleGAN network. This framework could automatically delineate GTV and achieve better performance with NECT compared to CECT. Our method could not only reduce the use of contrast medium, but also increase the precision and effectiveness of tumor delineation, which could have a positive impact on precision radiotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Highly predictive markers of drug treatment outcomes of tuberous sclerosis complex-related epilepsy are a key unmet clinical need. The objective of this study was to identify meaningful clinical and radiomic predictors of outcomes of epilepsy drug treatment in patients with tuberous sclerosis complex. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 105 children with tuberous sclerosis complex-related epilepsy were enrolled in this retrospective study. The pretreatment baseline predictors that were used to predict drug treatment outcomes included patient demographic and clinical information, gene data, electroencephalogram data, and radiomic features that were extracted from pretreatment MR imaging scans. The Spearman correlation coefficient and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator were calculated to select the most relevant features for the drug treatment outcome to build a comprehensive model with radiomic and clinical features for clinical application. RESULTS Four MR imaging-based radiomic features and 5 key clinical features were selected to predict the drug treatment outcome. Good discriminative performances were achieved in testing cohorts (area under the curve = 0.85, accuracy = 80.0%, sensitivity = 0.75, and specificity = 0.83) for the epilepsy drug treatment outcome. The model of radiomic and clinical features resulted in favorable calibration curves in all cohorts. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggested that the radiomic and clinical features model may predict the epilepsy drug treatment outcome. Age of onset, infantile spasms, antiseizure medication numbers, epileptiform discharge in left parieto-occipital area of electroencephalography, and gene mutation type are the key clinical factors to predict the epilepsy drug treatment outcome. The texture and first-order statistic features are the most valuable radiomic features for predicting drug treatment outcomes.

Abstract
Microorganisms, occupying the largest biomass in deep sea, play essential roles in deep-sea ecosystem. It is believed that the microbes in deep-sea sediments are more representative of deep-sea microbial communities, the microbial composition of which is seldom affected by ocean currents. However, the community of benthic microbes on a global scale has not been adequately explored. Herein, we build a comprehensive global dataset determined by 16S rRNA gene sequencing to characterize the biodiversity of microorganisms in benthic sediment. The dataset comprised 212 records from 106 sites, included sequencing of bacteria and archaea for each site and yielded 4,766,502 and 1,562,989 reads, respectively. Through annotation, a total of 110,073 and 15,795 OTUs of bacteria and archaea were obtained, and 61 bacterial phyla and 15 archaeal phyla were identified, of which the dominant phyla were Proteobacteria and Thaumarchaeota in deep-sea sediment. Therefore, our findings provided a biodiversity data of microbial communities in deep-sea sediment at global-scale and laid a foundation to further reveal the structures of microorganism communities in deep sea.

Abstract
1. Due to seasonal breeding, geese breeds from Southern China have low egg yield. The genetic makeup underlying performance of local breeds is largely unknown, and few studies have investigated this problem. This study integrated 21 newly generated and 50 publicly existing RNA-seq libraries, representing the hypothalamus, pituitary and testis, to identify candidate genes and importantly related pathways associated with seasonal breeding in male Lion-Head geese.2. In total, 19, 119 and 302 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were detected in the hypothalamus, pituitary and testis, respectively, of male Lion-Head geese between non-breeding and breeding periods. These genes were significantly involved in the neuropeptide signalling pathway, gland development, neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction, JAK-STAT signalling pathway, cAMP signalling pathway, PI3K-Akt signalling pathway and Foxo signalling pathway.3. By integrating another 50 RNA-seq samples 4, 18 and 40 promising DEGs were confirmed in hypothalamus, pituitary and testis, respectively.4. HOX genes were identified as having important roles in the development of testis between non-breeding and breeding periods of male Lion-Head geese.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Introduction Vibration training refers to the introduction of vibration methods into the daily training of athletes for body stimulation. In this way, coaches improve athletes’ strength, flexibility, and balance. Athletes can use vibration to stimulate neuromuscular activation. This allows more active units to be concentrated in the muscular contraction. In this way, the athlete’s muscular strength can be increased. Objective This study aimed to analyze the relationship between vibration training and the balance ability of long jumpers. Methods This paper selects several long jumpers as research subjects. The effects of vibration exercises at different frequencies on athletes’ stability are discussed, employing experimental comparison. In this context, statistical calculations are performed on the experimental results. Results There was no difference in balance ability between the vibration and general training groups before training (P>0.05). The athletes in the vibration training group showed more significant improvement in balance after a training period than the general training group. There were significant differences in the data between the two groups (P<0.01). Conclusion Vibration strength training can effectively improve the balance ability of jumpers. Athletes should increase the frequency of vibration training in their daily training. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.

Abstract
As persulfate activator, Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and derivatives are widely concerned in degradation of emerging environmental pollutants by advanced oxygen technology dominated by sulfate radical () (SR-AOPs). However, the poor stability and low catalytic efficiency limit the performance of MOFs, requiring multiple strategies to further enhance their catalytic activity. The aim of this paper is to improve the catalytic activity of MOFs and their derivatives by physical and chemical enhancement strategies. Physical enhancement strategies mainly refer to the activation strategies including thermal activation, microwave activation and photoactivation. However, the physical enhancement strategies need energy consumption and require high stability of MOFs. As a substitute, chemical enhancement strategies are more widely used and represented by optimization, modification, composites and derivatives. In addition, the identification of reactive oxygen species, active site and electron distribution are important for distinguishing radical and non-radical pathways. Finally, as a new wastewater treatment technology exploration of unknown areas in SR-AOPs could better promote the technology development.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety and efficacy of microwave ablation (MWA) versus repeat surgery for treating metastatic lymph nodes (MLNs) in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). METHODS Between July 2017 and October 2020, 67 patients were enrolled in this retrospective study. 19 and 48 patients underwent MWA and repeat surgery, respectively. The primary and secondary endpoints were recurrence-free survival and complication rates, respectively. The largest diameter, volume and volume reduction ratio (VRR) were analyzed before and after MWA. The effects of different ablation powers on the largest diameter, volume and VRR were investigated. Pre and posttreatment variables (e.g., baseline characteristics, serum thyroglobulin [Tg] levels, hospitalization time, treatment costs, recurrence-free survival and complication rates) were compared between groups. RESULTS The largest diameter and volume postablation at each follow-up were smaller than the preablation levels (p < 0.05), except at the 1-month follow-up (p > 0.05). The largest diameter, volume, and VRR among the different ablation powers were not significantly different (p > 0.05). The mean serum Tg levels and biochemical remission rates were not significantly different between the groups (p > 0.05). Compared to reoperation, MWA had a shorter hospitalization time and lower treatment cost (p < 0.001). Total and minor complications were higher in the reoperation group (p < 0.05), but major complications were comparable (p > 0.05). The recurrence-free survival rate between groups was not significantly different (p = 0.401). The 1- and 3-year recurrence-free survival rates were comparable between the groups. CONCLUSIONS MWA may be a safe and effective alternative to repeat surgery for treating MLNs of PTC in select patients.

Abstract
BackgroundThe preferential Janus kinase-1 inhibitor FIL significantly improved signs and symptoms of RA in Phase 2 and 3 trials.1–5 FIL is approved for treatment of moderate to severe active RA in Europe and Japan. Integrated safety analysis of FIL with patient data through 2019 was presented at the 2020 ACR virtual meeting.6ObjectivesTo report updated, as-treated data from the FIL integrated safety analysis with increased study drug exposure.MethodsData were integrated from 2 Phase 2 (NCT01668641, NCT01894516), 3 Phase 3 (NCT02889796, NCT02873936, NCT02886728), and 2 long-term extension (LTE) (NCT02065700, NCT03025308) trials. Phase 2 and 3 LTE data were through Nov 2020 and Jan 2021, respectively. The as-treated analysis set included all available data for pts receiving ≥1 dose FIL 200 (FIL200) or 100 mg (FIL100), including those rerandomized to FIL for LTE. Exposure-adjusted incidence rates (EAIR)/100 patient-y exposure (PYE) of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs; onset after first dose and no later than 30 days after last dose or new drug first dose date −1 day) and TEAEs of special interest (AESIs) are presented.Results3691 pts received FIL200 or FIL100 for 8085.1 PYE (median 2.2, maximum 6.8 y). In the as-treated set, 61% of FIL200 and 45% of FIL100 pts received FIL for ≥2 y, 19% and 5% for ≥3 y, and 11% and 0.5% for ≥4.5 y, respectively. EAIR for TEAEs was higher with FIL100 than FIL200; EAIRs for deaths were 0.5 and 0.3 for FIL200 and FIL100 (Figure 1). Incidences of infections and serious infections were numerically greater for FIL100 vs FIL200, while EAIRs for other AESIs were comparable between doses (Table 1). EAIRs for AESIs tended to decrease since the previous update, except for venous thromboembolism (total FIL 0.1 to 0.2) and malignancies excluding NMSC (total FIL 0.5 to 0.6).Table 1.TEAEs of special interest, as-treated setTEAE, n (%) and EAIR per 100 PYE (95% CI)FIL 200 mgn=2267PYE=5302.5FIL 100 mgn=1647PYE=2782.6Total FILN=3691PYE=8085.1Infectious AEs1206 (53.2)747 (45.4)1927 (52.2)EAIR21.1 (19.7, 22.5)30.2 (26.8, 34.0)21.0 (19.9, 22.3)Serious infectious AEs80 (3.5)57 (3.5)137 (3.7)EAIR1.5 (1.1, 1.9)2.7 (1.9, 3.9)1.6 (1.3, 2.0)Opportunistic infections5 (0.2)4 (0.2)9 (0.2)EAIR0.1 (0, 0.2)*0.1 (0.1, 0.4)*0.1 (0.1, 0.2)*Active tuberculosis03 (0.2)3 (<0.1)EAIR00.1 (0, 0.3)*0 (0, 0.1)*Herpes zoster84 (3.7)30 (1.8)114 (3.1)EAIR1.6 (1.2, 2.0)1.1 (0.8, 1.5)*1.4 (1.1, 1.7)Major adverse cardiovascular eventsa19 (0.8)14 (0.9)33 (0.9)EAIR0.3 (0.2, 0.5)0.5 (0.3, 0.8)*0.4 (0.2, 0.6)Venous thromboembolismb11 (0.5)4 (0.2)15 (0.4)EAIR0.2 (0.1, 0.4)*0.1 (0.1, 0.4)*0.2 (0.1, 0.3)*Atrial systemic thrombotic eventsa1 (<0.1)1 (<0.1)2 (<0.1)EAIR0 (0, 0.1)0 (0, 0.3)0 (0, 0.1)Malignancy excluding NMSC32 (1.4)17 (1.0)49 (1.3)EAIR0.6 (0.4, 0.9)0.6 (0.4, 1.0)*0.6 (0.4, 0.8)NMSC15 (0.7)5 (0.3)20 (0.5)EAIR0.3 (0.2, 0.5)*0.2 (0.1, 0.4)*0.2 (0.2, 0.4)*Gastrointestinal perforations3 (0.1)1 (<0.1)4 (0.1)EAIR0.1 (0, 0.2)*0 (0, 0.3)*0 (0, 0.1)**Except when any study had 0 event within the treatment, the Poisson model was not adjusted by study.

Abstract
Objective
To systematically assess the effect of discontinued vs continued oxytocin after active stage of labour is established.
Methods
Pubmed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were systematically searched to 18 April 2021. The risk ratio or mean difference with corresponding 95% confidence interval were computed to investigate the effect of intervention or control on maternal and fetus outcomes. This review was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews: CRD42021249635.
Results
Discontinuing oxytocin when the active labour was established might decrease the risk of cesarean delivery [RR (95% CI): 0.84 (0.72–0.98), P = 0.02]. However, when we restricted our analysis to women who performed cesarean section after the active phase was reached, the difference was no longer significant [RR (95% CI): 0.82 (0.60–1.10), P = 0.19]. The incidence of uterine tachysystole [RR (95% CI): 0.36 (0.27–0.49)], postpartum hemorrhage [RR (95% CI): 0.78 (0.65–0.93)], and non-reassuring fetal heart rate [RR (95% CI): 0.66 (0.58–0.76)] were significantly lower in the oxytocin discontinuation group. We also found a possible decrease in the risk of chorioamnionitis in discontinued oxytocin group [RR (95% CI): 2.77 (1.02–5.08)]. An increased duration of active [MD (95% CI): 2.28 (2.86–41.71)] and second [MD (95% CI): 5.36 (3.18–7.54)] phase of labour was observed in discontinued oxytocin group, while the total delivery time was not significantly different [MD (95% CI): 20.17 (-24.92–65.26)].
Conclusion
After the active labor is reached, discontinuation of oxytocin could be considered a new recommendation for the improved maternal and fetal outcomes without delaying labour.

Abstract
Objective: To study the optimal cut-off value of thyroglobulin measurement in a fine-needle aspiration (FNA-Tg) in diagnosing malignant lymph nodes and benign lymph nodes (LNs) according to the thyroid tissue status. Methods: A total of 517 LNs were aspirated: 401 preoperative LNs, 42 LNs after subtotal thyroidectomy and 74 suspected LNs after total thyroidectomy. The cut-off value of FNA-Tg was obtained from receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. The cut-off value with the best diagnostic performance was then obtained by comparing different cut-off values from other studies. Results: LN FNA-Tg levels differed between preoperative and total thyroid disease (p < 0.001) and subtotal thyroidectomy and total thyroidectomy (p = 0.03), but not between preoperative and subtotal thyroidectomy (p = 1.00). Accordingly, those 443 LNs with preoperative and subtotal thyroidectomy were compared to those 74 without thyroid tissue. The optimal cut-off value in thyroid tissue group was 19.4 ng/ml and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.95 (95% CI 0.92–0.97). The optimal cut-off value in thyroid tissue absence group was 1.2 ng/ml and the AUC was 0.93 (0.85–0.98). After the analysis and comparison of multiple cut-off values, the optimal diagnostic performance was still found to be 19.4 ng/ml and 1.2 ng/ml. Conclusion: The influential factors of FNA-Tg are still controversial, and the optimal cut-off value of FNA-Tg can be determined based on the presence or absence of thyroid tissue. FNA-Tg can be used as an important auxiliary method for diagnosing cervical metastatic LNs of thyroid cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate the safety and efficacy of radiofrequency ablation (RFA), microwave ablation (MWA), and laser ablation (LA) for the treatment of cervical metastatic lymph nodes (CMLNs) of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). METHODS The Pubmed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases were searched for studies on the safety and efficacy of thermal ablations (RFA, MWA, and LA) for the treatment of CMLNs of PTC until March 30, 2022. A review of 334 potential papers identified 17 eligible papers including 312 patients. Fixed-effects model or random-effects model was used to evaluate the pooled proportions of volume reduction rate (VRR), complete disappearance, and recurrence, and pooled estimates of changes in the largest diameter, volume, and serum Tg after ablation. The pooled proportions of overall and major complications were calculated. Subgroup analysis based on treatment modalities. The heterogeneity among studies was analyzed by using Q statistics and inconsistency index I2 . MINORS scale was used to evaluate the quality of the studies. RESULTS 17 eligible studies were finally identified, including 312 patients and 559 CMLNs. The pooled proportions of VRR, complete disappearance and recurrence of CMLNs were 91.28% [95% confidence interval (CI): 86.60-95.97%], 67.9% [95% CI: 53.1-81.1%] and 7.8% [95%CI: 3.0-14.1%], respectively. The pooled estimates of changes in the largest diameter, volume and serum Tg were 8.12 mm [95%CI: 6.78-9.46 mm], 338.75 mm3 [95%CI: 206.85 -470.65 mm3] and 5.96 ng/ml [95%CI: 3.68-8.24 ng/ml], respectively. The pooled proportions of overall and major complications were 2.9% [95%CI: 0.3-7.1%] and 0.3% [95%CI: 0-1.9%], respectively. Significant between-study heterogeneity was observed for complete disappearance (P<0.01, I2 =88.6%), VRR (P<0.001, I2 =99.9%), recurrence (P=0.02, I2 =47.76%), overall complications (P<0.02, I2 =44.8%), and changes in the largest diameter (P < 0.001, I2 =82.6%), volume (P<0.001, I2 =97.0%), and serum Tg (P < 0.001, I2 =93.7%). Subgroup analysis showed heterogeneity of the VRR among the treatment modality (I2 range: 84.4-100%). The VRR of MWA was the highest (97.97%), followed by RFA (95.57%) and LA (84.46%) (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION All thermal ablations were safe and effective for the treatment of CMLNs of PTC. However, each treatment had significant heterogeneity in VRR. Compared with RFA and MWA, LA was less effective in reducing the volume of CMLNs of PTC.

Abstract
Objective To estimate the safety and feasibility of laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) in pregnant patients with acute abdomen. Methods Baseline characteristics, surgical results, and obstetric and neonatal outcomes were retrospectively compared between single and multiport procedures in patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery during pregnancy between 2017 and 2021. Results Fifty-four pregnant patients were included: 26 who underwent LESS (salpingectomy, 11 cases/cystectomy, 15 cases) and 28 who underwent conventional laparoscopic surgeries (salpingectomy, 12 cases/cystectomy, 16 cases) during pregnancy. One patient in the single-port group required additional ports. No patients converted to laparotomy. In patients undergoing salpingectomy, the single-port group showed lower 8- and 24-h postoperative pain scores, shorter hospital stays, and lower Self-rating Anxiety Scale scores prior to discharge versus conventional laparoscopy. One patient experienced postoperative vaginal bleeding and a missed abortion during follow-up. In patients receiving cystectomy, 8- and 24-h pain scores, postoperative hospital stay, and anxiety scores were lower in the single-port versus multiport group. Other outcomes were comparable between the groups. Conclusion The feasibility and efficacy of laparoscopic surgery during pregnancy is similar between single- or multiport routes, however, the single-port route may be associated with less postoperative pain, shorter hospital stay, and lower anxiety.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The choice of the most appropriate therapeutic approach for a diagnosed papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) remains controversial. The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of microwave ablation (MWA) for unifocal PTMC with a diameter of ≤0.6 cm. METHODS A total of 63 consecutive patients with PTMC treated with MWA were studied retrospectively. MWA was performed using the hydrodissection technique and multidimensional fixed-needle principle. We analyzed the absorption of the MWA area and evaluated the prognosis over a follow-up period of 24 months. In addition, 83 patients with PTMC who underwent surgery were selected. The operating room characteristics and procedural complications of the two groups were compared. RESULTS In the MWA group, the volume of nodules (p < 0.05) decreased from 0.04 ± 0.03 cm3 to 0.0001 ± 0.0004 cm3 at the 24-month follow-up after MWA, and the volume reduction rate (p < 0.05) was 99.43 ± 1.58%. The incidence of temporary reactive hyperplastic lymphadenectasis was higher and that of other complications was lower in the MWA group than in the surgery group. One percent of the patients in the surgery group had recurrence or metastasis, but none were detected in the MWA group. The loss of thyroid tissue volume (p < 0.001), operating room time (p < 0.001), and the mean length of hospital stay (p < 0.001) were significantly lower in the MWA group than in the surgery group. CONCLUSION Ultrasound-guided MWA is an effective treatment strategy for unifocal PTMC with a diameter of ≤0.6 cm.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
We aim to assess prevalence of diabetes related peripheral arterial disease and associated outcomes in hospitalized patients in the United States.
Methods
Trends in hospitalizations in diabetic patients with PAD were determined using the 2003–2017 National Inpatient Sample database. Hospital outcomes including diabetic ulcer incidence, amputations, and revascularizations were analyzed.
Results
The analysis included 10,303,673 hospitalizations in diabetic patients with PAD (DMPAD) during the study period. Prevalence of PAD among patients with diabetes increased over time (p<0.001). The prevalence of foot ulcers in diabetics have also increased over time (p<0.001). The incidence of amputations in patients with diabetes showed a decreasing trend with increasing prevalence of revascularizations from 2003 to 2009. Since 2010 however, rising rates of amputations, both minor and major are seen, especially in younger populations (age 18–49). Hospital costs for amputations have increased ($6.6 billion in 2003 vs $ 14.8 billion in 2017) as well as the costs for revascularization (6.1 billion in 2003 vs $13 billion in 2017) during the study period (p<0.001).
Conclusions
In this analysis of patients with DMPAD, an alarming rate of disease prevalence and in-hospital limb outcomes, including costs, are realized in the current era.

Abstract
In this work, 1-vinyl-3-octadecylimidazolium bromide ionic liquids ([C18VIm]Br) and their derived carbon dots (ImC18CDs) were prepared, [C18VIm]Br and ImC18CDs were grafted on the silica to obtain Sil-ImC18 and Sil-ImC18CDs, respectively, and they were also co-grafted on silica which named Sil-ImC18/CDs. Compared with Sil-ImC18 and Sil-ImC18CDs columns, Sil-ImC18/CDs column exhibited enhanced selectivity for separation of tetracyclic/tricyclic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) isomers, and butylbenzene isomers in reversed-phase liquid chromatography, which may be due to the synergistic effect between ImC18CDs and [C18VIm]Br, the π-π interaction between imidazolium and analytes, etc. Meanwhile, the retention behavior of Sil-ImC18/CDs was further evaluated and compared with the commercial C18 column using different classes of analytes, including standard test mixtures of Tanaka, Engelhardt, SRM869b, SRM870. The results demonstrated that co-grafted column exhibited superior separation performance. And this column was applied to determine the contents of calycosin-7-glucoside, ononin, calycosin and formononetin in the extract of Radix Astragali, which were found that the concentration was 0.25 mg mL-1, 0.15 mg mL-1, 0.13 mg mL-1 and 0.30 mg mL-1, respectively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Structural variations (SVs, defined as DNA variants ≥50 bp) have been associated with various complex human diseases. However, research to screen the whole genome for SVs predisposing to psoriasis is still lacking. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the association of SVs and psoriasis. METHODS We performed a genome-wide screen on SVs using an imputation method on 5 independent cohorts with 45,386 subjects from the Chinese Han population. Fine mapping analysis, genetic interaction analysis and RNA expression analysis were conducted to explore the mechanism of SVs. RESULTS We obtained 4,535 SVs in total and identified 2 novel deletions (esv3608550, OR=2.73, P<2.00×10-308 ; esv3608542, OR=0.47, P=7.40×10-28 ) at 6q21.33 (MHC), 1 novel Alu element insertion (esv3607339, OR=1.22, P=1.18×10-35 ) at 5q33.3 (IL12B), and confirmed 1 previously reported deletion (esv3587563, OR=1.30, P=9.52×10-60 ) at 1q21.2 (LCE) for psoriasis. Fine mapping analysis including SNPs and small Insertions/Deletions (InDels) revealed that esv3608550 and esv3608542 were independently associated with psoriasis, and a novel independent SNP (rs9378188, OR=1.65, P=3.46×10-38 ) was identified at 6q21.33. By genetic interaction analysis and RNA expression analysis, we speculate that the association of 2 deletions at 6q21.33 with psoriasis might relate to their influence on the expression of HLA-C. CONCLUSIONS Our study constructed the most comprehensive SV map for psoriasis thus far and enriched the genetic architecture and pathogenesis of psoriasis as well as highlighted the nonnegligible impact of SVs on complex diseases.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the effect of the resection of the primary lesion on the prognosis for patients with stage Ⅳ breast cancer. Methods: A total of 132 breast cancer patients who were first diagnosed as stage Ⅳ in the Hebei Cancer Hospital from June 2008 to June 2015 were divided into two groups: the primary resection group (n=85) and the unresection group (n=47). The influences of primary resection, timing of operation, lymph node removal or dissection and radiotherapy on the prognosis of stage Ⅳ breast cancer patients were analyzed. Results: Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that visceral metastasis was an independent influencing factor for primary lesion resection in stage Ⅳ breast cancer patients (OR=2.590, 95% CI: 1.090-6.159). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that primary resection was an independent factor for the improvement of prognosis in stage Ⅳ breast cancer patients (OR=0.582, 95% CI: 0.400-0.847). The median overall survival (OS) was 37.20 months in the resection group, which was higher than 24.10 months in the unresection group (χ(2)=8.108, P=0.004). Among patients aged ≥50 years old, the median OS was 39.30 months in the resection group and 23.03 months in the unresection group, and the difference was statistically significant (χ(2)=14.191, P<0.001). The median OS was 38.00 months in the 66 patients with the operation time from diagnosis to resection of primary lesion<6 months (n=66), and 35.20 months for ≥6 months (n=19) (χ(2)=4.430, P=0.035), the difference was statistically significant (χ(2)=4.430, P=0.035). The median OR of axillary lymph node dissection and axillary lymph node excision group were 45.37 months and 33.44 months, respectively, the difference was statistically significant (χ(2)=7.832, P=0.005). The median OS of postoperative radiotherapy group and non-radiotherapy group were 44.80 months and 33.20 months, respectively, the difference was not statistically significant (χ(2)=2.950, P=0.086). Conclusion: Resection of the primary lesion may prolong the survival time of some advanced breast cancer patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Exploring potential risk factors for OMA recurrence, thereby contributing to the individual management of the disease and improving the patients' prognosis. METHODS Data sources PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, and Wanfang data were searched systematically before October 2020. We computed the pooled odd ratios or the standard mean difference with their corresponding 95% confidence interval to investigate the impact of involved risk factors on endometrioma recurrence. RESULTS The pooled findings of this meta-analysis demonstrated that endometrioma relapse was closely related to age at surgery [SMD (95% CI): - 0.28 (- - 0.38 to - 0.17), P < 0.00001], CA125 level [SMD (95% CI): 0.51 (0.14-0.88), P = 0.007], cyst size [SMD (95% CI): 0.35 (0.08-0.62), P = 0.01], dysmenorrhea [OR (95% CI): 1.47 (1.07-2.02), P = 0.02], endometriosis-related surgery history [OR (95% CI): 2.60 (1.84-3.67), P < 0.00001], pre-operative medication [OR (95% CI): 2.13 (1.41-3.22), P = 0.0003], rASRM score [SMD (95% CI): 0.33 (0.20-0.46), P < 0.00001]. Furthermore, post-operative pregnancy was indicated a protective factor for preventing the OMA recurrence after surgery [OR (95% CI): 0.22 (0.09-0.56), P = 0.001] CONCLUSION: Age at surgery, CA125 level, cyst size, dysmenorrhea, endometriosis-related surgery history, pre-operative medication, rASRM score were risk factors for endometrioma relapse. In addition, post-operative pregnancy was a protective factor for preventing recurrence after surgery. However, the effect of bilateral involvement, combination with adenomyosis, or post-operative medication on endometrioma relapse need further investigations.

Abstract
Background:The Janus kinase (JAK)-1 preferential inhibitor filgotinib (FIL) improved rheumatoid arthritis (RA) signs and symptoms in 3 phase (P)3 trials.1–3 Like other RA therapies, JAK inhibition is associated with increased infection rates.4Objectives:To assess long-term safety across the FIL program regarding infections, including serious infections (SI).Methods:Patients (pts) meeting 2010 ACR/EULAR RA criteria in pooled analysis of P2 DARWIN 1–2 (D1–2), P3 FINCH 1–3 (F1–3), and long-term extension studies (DARWIN 3, FINCH 4) were included. The placebo (PBO)-controlled as-randomised data set included pts receiving FIL 100 mg (FIL100), FIL 200 mg (FIL200), or PBO up to week (W)12 (D1–2, F1–2). The active-controlled as-randomised data set included pts receiving FIL100, FIL200, adalimumab (ADA), or methotrexate (MTX) up to W52 (F1, F3). The long-term as-treated data set included pts in all 7 studies receiving FIL100 or FIL200; data after rerandomisation were included and contributed to treatment received.Exposure-adjusted incidence rates (EAIRs) per 100 patient-years exposure (PYE) and differences with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using Poisson regression; EAIRs for tuberculosis (TB) in active controlled sets were calculated using an Exact Poisson method. Kaplan-Meier (KM) event probabilities with 95% CIs were provided for SI. If pts had multiple events within the same treatment period, only the first event was counted in EAIR calculation; PYE were calculated up to the last follow-up time or day before next treatment, including after first event. For KM analysis, time to event was calculated until the first event.Results:Of 2267/1647 pts in as-treated set receiving FIL200/FIL100, 1697 had treatment-emergent infection; 118 were SI.

Most common infections were upper respiratory tract infection and nasopharyngitis; majority were low grade. Pneumonia was most common SI (<1%). In long-term population, event probability (95% CI) of SI was 2.2% (1.6, 2.9)/2.5% (1.8, 3.4) for FIL200/FIL100 at 52W. In F1–3 (excluding data after rerandomisation), there were no significant changes in mean neutrophil and lymphocyte counts; values remained within normal limits up to W52 for all arms.Conclusion:EAIRs of infections and SI for FIL were similar to PBO, ADA, and MTX. At 52W, incidence rates of SI were comparable for FIL100 and FIL200. Long-term SI EAIR for FIL100 was slightly higher than for FIL200.References:[1]Genovese et al.

Abstract
Background:The Janus kinase-1 preferential inhibitor filgotinib (FIL) improved rheumatoid arthritis (RA) signs and symptoms in phase (P)3 trials.1–3 RA elevates cardiovascular disease risk; statins are used to reduce risk.Objectives:To assess safety of statin and filgotinib coadministration across the clinical program.Methods:Patients (pts) meeting 2010 ACR/EULAR RA criteria in P2 DARWIN 1–2 (D1–2; NCT01888874, NCT01894516), P3 FINCH 1–3 (F1–3; NCT02889796, NCT02873936, NCT02886728), and long-term extensions DARWIN 3 and FINCH 4 (D3, F4; NCT02065700, NCT03025308) receiving FIL 100 mg (FIL100) QD, FIL 200 mg QD (FIL200), adalimumab (ADA), methotrexate (MTX), or placebo (PBO) were included. Events related to statin use were analysed as exposed by treatment received. N and % were provided.Week (W)12 PBO-controlled safety analysis included pts receiving FIL100, FIL200, or PBO for ≤12W (D1–2, F1–2); as-treated safety analysis included pts receiving long-term FIL100 QD (n=1647), FIL200 QD (n=2267), ADA (n=325), MTX (n=416), or PBO (n=781) (D1–3, F1–4); P3 as-randomised analysis included data up to W52 (F1–3) per assigned treatment.Results:In each arm, similar proportions of pts took statins at baseline (9.4%–11.9%); initiation during study was low (1.2%–6.8%). Through W12 in PBO-controlled analysis, mean creatine phosphokinase (CPK; Figure 1), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels were similar regardless of statin use and remained within normal levels across all arms.Mean baseline ALT and AST levels were 20–23 and 20–22 U/L, respectively; at W12, ALT and AST ranged from 22–24 and 20–25 U/L, respectively.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the mechanism of maggot debridement therapy (MDT) in promoting wound angiogenesis in patients with diabetic foot ulcer (DFU). Methods: (1) From June 2018 to June 2019, the patients admitted to Nanjing Junxie Hospital who met the inclusion criteria were recruited, including 12 DFU patients given MDT for three days [6 males and 6 females, aged (56±12) years] and 12 acute trauma patients without diabetes mellitus [6 males and 6 females, aged (53±10) years], who were enrolled into DFU group and non-diabetic trauma group respectively. Before and after application of MDT, the wound characteristics of patients in DFU group were observed and the wound tissue samples were taken. The wound tissue in non-diabetic trauma group was taken at patient's first visit before debridement. The expression of angiogenesis marker CD31 in the wound tissue of patients in DFU group was detected by immunohistochemistry before and after application of MDT. Western blotting and real-time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were used respectively to detect the protein and mRNA expressions of fatty acid synthase (FAS) in wound tissue of patients in DFU group before and after application of MDT and in non-diabetic trauma group before debridement. (2) Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were cultured in endothelial cell culture medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum. The 3rd to 6th passages of cells in logarithmic growth phase were used in the following experiments. Excretions/secretions (ES) were extracted from 3-day-old sterile Lucilia sericata larvae for subsequent experiments. Three batches of cells were divided into phosphate buffer solution (PBS) control group, high glucose alone group, high glucose+ 5 μg/mL maggot ES group, and high glucose+ 10 μg/mL maggot ES group, which were treated with PBS, glucose in final molarity concentration of 20 mmol/L, glucose in final molarity concentration of 20 mmol/L+ maggot ES in final mass concentration of 5 μg/mL, and glucose in final molarity concentration of 20 mmol/L+ maggot ES in final mass concentration of 10 μg/mL respectively. The total volume of reagents in each group was the same. After 48 hours of culture, Western blotting, real-time fluorescent quantitative RT-PCR and immunofluorescence method were used to detect the protein and mRNA expressions of FAS in each batch of cells and the expression and localization of FAS protein in cells respectively. The number of samples for mRNA expression was 3. (3) Two batches of cells were divided into small interference RNA (siRNA) alone group, siRNA control+ maggot ES group and siRNA-FAS+ maggot ES group, which were transfected with 100 μmol/L (final molarity concentration) insignificant control siRNA, insignificant control siRNA, and siRNA-FAS for 4-6 h respectively, and then they were routinely cultured for 24 h with PBS added, maggot ES in final mass concentration of 10 μg/mL, and maggot ES in final mass concentration of 10 μg/mL respectively. The total volume of reagents in each group was the same. One batch of cells was used for scratch test, the scratch width was observed at 24 hour after scratching to detect the cell migration ability; one batch of cells was subjected to tube forming experiment, and the formation of cell tubules was observed after 24 hours of culture. The number of samples was 3 in scratch test and tube forming experiments. Data were statistically analyzed with t test, one-way analysis of variance, least significant difference test, analysis of variance for repeated measurement, and Bonferroni method. Results: (1) Compared with those before application of MDT, fresh granulation tissue significantly increased and necrotic tissue decreased obviously in wound, and the expression of CD31 significantly increased in wound tissue of patients in DFU group after application of MDT. The expression of FAS protein in wound tissue of patients in DFU group before application of MDT was significantly lower than that in non-diabetic trauma group before debridement, and the expression of FAS protein in wound tissue of patients in DFU group after application of MDT was significantly higher than that before application of MDT. The expression of FAS mRNA in wound tissue of patients in DFU group before application of MDT was 1.00±0.17, which was significantly less than 3.87±1.02 in non-diabetic trauma group before debridement (t=9.808, P<0.01). The expression of FAS mRNA in wound tissue of patients in DFU group after application of MDT was 1.85±0.31, which was significantly higher than that before application of MDT (t=-10.853, P<0.01). (2) After 48 hours of culture, Western blotting detection showed that the expression of FAS protein in cells in high glucose alone group was significantly less than that in PBS control group, and the expressions of FAS protein in cells in high glucose+ 5 μg/mL maggot ES group and high glucose+ 10 μg/mL maggot ES group were significantly higher than the expression in high glucose alone group. Real-time fluorescent quantitative RT-PCR determination showed that the expression of FAS mRNA in cells in high glucose alone group was 0.392±0.073, which was significantly lower than 1.000±0.085 in PBS control group (P<0.01); there was statistically significant difference between the expression of FAS mRNA in cells in high glucose+ 5 μg/mL maggot ES group (0.561±0.047) and that in high glucose+ 10 μg/mL maggot ES group (0.687±0.013) (P<0.05), both of which were significantly higher than the expression in high glucose alone group (P<0.01). The results of immunofluorescence detection showed that FAS protein was mainly located in the cytoplasm of cells in each group, and its expression was similar to that detected by Western blotting. (3) At 24 hour after scratch, the uncured widths of cell scratch in siRNA control+ maggot ES group and siRNA-FAS+ maggot ES group were significantly narrower than the uncured width in siRNA alone control group (P<0.01), and the uncured width of cell scratch in siRNA-FAS+ maggot ES group was significantly wider than that in siRNA control+ maggot ES group (P<0.01). After 24 hours of culture, the numbers of tubules in siRNA+ maggot ES group and siRNA-FAS+ maggot ES group were significantly more than the number in siRNA alone control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the number of tubules in siRNA-FAS+ maggot ES group was obviously less than that in siRNA control+ maggot ES group (P<0.05). Conclusions: MDT up-regulates the expression of FAS through maggot ES, which promotes the activity of vascular endothelial cells, thus promoting the wound angiogenesis in patients with DFU.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the effect of occupational nickel exposure on blood glucose related indicators of workers. Methods: In March 2019, five electroplating enterprises and one plastic hardware enterprise were selected by cluster sampling method. 159 nickel plating workers were selected as the contact group, and 66 administrative personnel of the same enterprise were selected as the control group. The serum nickel concentration, fasting blood glucose (FPG) , fasting insulin (FIns) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were measured in the contact group and the control group. The differences of blood glucose related indexes between the two groups were compared, and the risk factors of abnormal blood glucose indexes were analyzed. Results: Compared with the control group, the blood nickel concentration and detection rate of nickel in the contact group were higher, the levels of FIns were lower, and the proportion of HbA1c was higher in the contact group (P<0.05) . Stratified analysis showed that compared with the control group, the blood glucose index of men in the contact group changed significantly (P<0.05) ; logistic regression analysis showed that male was an independent influencing factor for decreased FIns (OR=8.264, P<0.05) . Conclusion: Long term exposure to nickel can affect the blood glucose related indexes such as fins and HbA1c.

Abstract
Interactions between livestock management practices and toxicological outcomes of mycotoxin exposure may explain the range of tolerable toxin levels reported for various species. In the current study, we investigated the effect of concurrent mycotoxin exposure with a high starch diet in 12 beef steers in a partial cross-over experiment using a 21-day treatment period, followed by a 14-day clearance. During the treatment period, animals were assigned to one of two diets: a low mycotoxin control total mixed ration (TMR) (0.2±0.1 mg deoxynivalenol (DON) and 0.2±0.2 mg fumonisins (FUM)/kg TMR) and a high mycotoxin TMR treatment (1.7±0.2 mg DON and 3.5±0.3 mg FUM/kg TMR). We evaluated the impacts of these mycotoxins on performance, physiology and biochemistry; and the ability of the clearance period to return animals to a naïve state in the cross-over model. The lack of acute ruminal acidosis observed indicates that the animals were able to withstand the physiological stresses of the high starch diet, while toxicological outcomes were manifested in minor perturbations of biochemistry and outright performance of exposed animals. Aspartate aminotransferase, cholesterol, fibrinogen and leukocyte count were increased while sorbitol dehydrogenase, bile acids and mean corpuscular volume were decreased in treatment-fed steers, yet were not significantly different than those from control-fed animals. Fusarium toxin exposure significantly decreased ruminal fluid pH, with the clearance period returning animals to a naïve state, as it did for most of the molecular variables measured. Conversely, treatment-fed animals continued to exhibit significantly lower average weekly body weight throughout the treatment period and the first week of the clearance period. While the risk of adverse health effects to fattening cattle from similar doses of DON or FUM as used in the current study is considered low, additional work should be directed towards minimising production losses due to these feed contaminants.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Numerous genome-wide association studies revealed that SNPs at phosphatase and actin regulator 1 (PHACTR1) locus are strongly correlated with coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the mechanism linking these variants to CAD remains uncertain.
Purpose
We studied the biological functions and molecular mechanisms of PHACTR1 in atherosclerosis.
Methods and results
Analysis of GTEx database showed that CAD-related SNPs in PHACTR1 are cis-eQTLs for PHACTR1 in arteries. Therefore, we generated Phactr1 knockout mice and crossed them with apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE−/−) mice to induce atherosclerosis by high-fat/high-cholesterol (HF-HC) diet. Phactr1 deficiency significantly inhibited atherosclerosis with decreased inflammatory cell infiltration. Western blot showed that PHACTR1 was restricted to endothelial cells (ECs) in mice. Mechanistically, RNAseq of aortic ECs revealed that the major molecular function of PHACTR1 was transcriptional regulation. PPARγ/RXRα was the top transcription factor, and PPARγ target gene expression substantially increased in Phactr1−/− mice. Moreover, we generated endothelial cell specific Phactr1−/−, ApoE−/− mice and found decreased atherosclerotic plaque area in aortic sinus. In vitro, PHACTR1 associated with PPARγ and inhibited PPARγ transcriptional activity. The inhibitory effect of PHACTR1 on PPARγ required its shuttling from cytosol to nucleus triggered by disturbed flow, a well-established pro-atherosclerotic stimulus.
Conclusion
Our results identified PHACTR1 as a mechanosensitive corepressor of PPARγ in ECs to promote atherosclerosis. Endothelial PHACTR1 is a potential therapeutic target for atherosclerosis treatment.

Abstract
Drought is one of the major stress factors in wheat production on a global scale. Drought priming during the early growth stage can enhance drought tolerance in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Abscisic acid (ABA) and hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) are important signal molecules in the adaptation of plants to drought stress. However, the roles of ABA and H2 O2 in drought priming-induced drought tolerance are not clear. In the present study, we evaluated the responses of wheat to an ABA inhibitor, H2 O2 scavenger and an inhibitor to investigate the (i) relationship between ABA and H2 O2 in osmotic adjustment after drought priming in the vegetative stage and (ii) responses to drought stress during grain filling. In the drought priming alone treatments, chemical application resulted in the scavenging of ABA and H2 O2 , weakening the alleviation effects of drought priming on drought stress, as demonstrated by the lower leaf water potential and grain yield. The ABA inhibitor completely inhibited accumulation of ABA and H2 O2 ; the ABA inhibitor inhibited respiratory burst oxidase homologue expression, whereas the H2 O2 inhibitor resulted in higher 9-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase expression and ABA concentration in primed plants, indicating that ABA scavenging inhibited H2 O2 biosynthesis while H2 O2 scavenging did not inhibit ABA biosynthesis. The results further demonstrated that NADPH oxidase-mediated H2 O2 production functions downstream of ABA, which induces osmolyte transcript expression and accumulation, and thus contributes to drought priming-induced stress tolerance. These results provide a theoretical basis for a better understanding of the mechanisms involved in drought priming-induced tolerance in wheat plants.

Abstract
Endometrioma is the cystic lesion of ovaries originating from endometrial glands and stroma; it is identified in 17-44% of patients with endometriosis. Numerous existing studies have reported the association between endometrioma and infertility. However, an absolute cause-effect association requires further confirmation. Available evidence has suggested that ovarian reserve may be impaired by spatial occupation influences, local reaction or both, affecting the reproductive health of females. Given the increased focus on the pathophysiological mechanisms of endometrioma, surgical excision has commonly been considered to avoid further ovarian damage. However, the potential adverse effect of this surgery on the ovarian reserve has recently become a focal point. Whether or not surgical excision can facilitate subsequent conception in young females planning to be pregnant is controversial. As shown in the present review on the effects of endometrioma and its removal in females requiring assisted reproductive technology, prior surgery for endometrioma may not improve assisted fertility results and may further decrease the number of oocytes retrieved in the affected females. Subsequent studies are needed to ascertain the optimal management of infertility in the setting of endometriomas.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To observe the therapeutic effect of butorphanol on brain tissue injury in rats with sepsis through the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) pathway. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into control group (n=20), sepsis model group [cecal ligation and perforation (CLP) group, n=20], and butorphanol treatment group (n=20). After successful modeling, the blood and brain tissues were collected from rats at 24 h. The content of serum brain injury indexes was detected. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining assay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were separately carried out to observe the pathological changes and measure the levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity. The neurological function was scored in rats. Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), S100, and NF-κB signaling pathway genes and proteins in brain tissues were detected via quantitative Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting. RESULTS CLP group showed remarkably increased levels of serum glucosuria (GLU), creatinine (CR), and Na+ but an evidently reduced level of K+ in comparison with the control group (p<0.05), while the treatment group displayed contrary trends. Histopathological observations showed that the rats in the CLP group suffered a brain injury, while those in the treatment group had mild pathological changes. The MPO in the CLP group was significantly increased compared with that in the control group (p<0.05). The levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were overtly higher in the CLP group than those in the control group, and these indexes in the treatment group were close to those in the control group. The messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) expression levels of S100, GFAP, Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), and NF-κB in CLP group were evidently higher than those in the control group and treatment group (p<0.05). The results of Western blotting revealed that the protein expression of NF-κB was significantly higher in CLP group than that in the control group, and it declined in the treatment group, which was close to that in the control group. CONCLUSIONS Butorphanol can reduce the content of inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-1, and IL-6 through the NF-κB signaling pathway, thereby relieving the brain injury caused by sepsis.
