Abstract
BACKGROUND Numerous metabolomic studies have confirmed the pivotal role of metabolic abnormalities in the development of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Nevertheless, there is a lack of evidence on the causal relationship between circulating metabolites and the risk of IPF. METHODS The potential causality between 486 blood metabolites and IPF was determined through a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (TSMR) analysis. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) involving 7,824 participants was performed to analyze metabolite data, and a GWAS meta-analysis involving 6,257 IPF cases and 947,616 control European subjects was conducted to analyze IPF data. The TSMR analysis was performed primarily with the inverse variance weighted model, supplemented by weighted mode, MR-Egger regression, and weighted median estimators. A battery of sensitivity analyses was performed, including horizontal pleiotropy assessment, heterogeneity test, Steiger test, and leave-one-out analysis. Furthermore, replication analysis and meta-analysis were conducted with another GWAS dataset of IPF containing 4,125 IPF cases and 20,464 control subjects. Mediation analyses were used to identify the mediating role of confounders in the effect of metabolites on IPF. RESULTS There were four metabolites associated with the elevated risk of IPF, namely glucose (odds ratio [OR] = 2.49, 95% confidence interval [95%CI] = 1.13-5.49, P = 0.024), urea (OR = 6.24, 95% CI = 1.77-22.02, P = 0.004), guanosine (OR = 1.57, 95%CI = 1.07-2.30, P = 0.021), and ADpSGEGDFXAEGGGVR (OR = 1.70, 95%CI = 1.00-2.88, P = 0.0496). Of note, the effect of guanosine on IPF was found to be mediated by gastroesophageal reflux disease. Reverse Mendelian randomization analysis displayed that IPF might slightly elevate guanosine levels in the blood. CONCLUSION Conclusively, hyperglycemia may confer a promoting effect on IPF, highlighting that attention should be paid to the relationship between diabetes and IPF, not solely to the diagnosis of diabetes. Additionally, urea, guanosine, and ADpSGEGDFXAEGGGVR also facilitate the development of IPF. This study may provide a reference for analyzing the potential mechanism of IPF and carry implications for the prevention and treatment of IPF.

Abstract
Background The ginseng polysaccharide injection is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine often employed as a supplementary treatment for cancer. This treatment can not only alleviate the adverse effects caused by tumor radiotherapy and chemotherapy but also enhance the immune system of individuals diagnosed with lung cancer. It is important to acknowledge the efficacy of ginseng polysaccharide injection in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, these small-sample studies may have certain biases, and the underlying mechanisms of ginseng polysaccharides therapy for NSCLC are still unclear. Methods The present study involved a systematic review of the literature on randomized controlled trials (RCTs) focusing on using ginseng polysaccharide injection as a therapeutic approach for NSCLC. Seven databases were searched for eligible studies published before April 2023. Two researchers independently managed data extraction, risk of bias assessment, and data analyses using RevMan 5.3 software. In network pharmacology, we thoroughly searched the relevant literature on ginseng polysaccharides (GPs) and the PubChem database. This search aimed to identify the main active ingredients and targets associated with ginseng polysaccharides. Subsequently, we compared these targets with those of NSCLC and utilized bioinformatics techniques to analyze and explore their potential interactions. Results A total of 11 RCTs involving 845 patients with NSCLC were included in the meta-analysis. The meta-analysis revealed that ginseng polysaccharide injection combined significantly improved the objective response rate [RR = 1.45, 95% CI (1.26, 1.67), P < 0.00001]. Furthermore, it was observed that ginseng polysaccharide injection increased the serum levels of CD4+ T-lymphocytes (CD4+ T) [MD = 8.98, 95% CI (5.18, 12.78), P < 0.00001], and decreased the serum levels of CD8+ T-lymphocytes (CD8+ T) [MD = -2.68, 95% CI (-4.66, -0.70), P = 0.008]. Through network pharmacology analysis, a total of 211 target genes of GPs and 81 common targets were identified. GAPDH, EGFR, VEGFA, JUN, SRC, CASP3, STAT3, CCND1, HSP90AA1, and MMP9 were identified as the core target proteins. Additionally, KEGG enrichment analysis revealed 122 relevant signaling pathways, including Pathways in cancer, PD-L1 expression and PD-1 checkpoint pathway in cancer, and Proteoglycans in cancer. Conclusion Ginseng polysaccharide injection can improve the ORR of patients with NSCLC, increase the serum levels of CD4+ T, and decrease the serum levels of CD8+ T. The potential mechanism may be associated with the PD-1/PD-L1 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Microneedle patches are easy-to-use medical devices for transdermal administration. However, the insufficient insertion of microneedles due to the gap between planar patches and contoured skin affects drug delivery. Herein, we formulate a prepolymer for high-fidelity three-dimensional (3D) printed personalized transdermal patches. With the excellent photoinitiation ability of 2-(4-methoxystyryl)-4,6-bis(trichloromethyl)-1,3,5-triazine (Tz), a high-fidelity and precise microneedle patch is successfully fabricated. Upon irradiation of the white illuminator, the doped gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in the patch release heat and promisingly induce sweat production. With the introduction of Na+, the dominant component of sweat, the curvature of the produced transdermal patch is observed due to the ion-induced network rearrangement. The alkanethiol-stabilized AuNP with an end group of a carboxyl group causes controlled drug release behavior. Furthermore, the irradiation-induced photothermal heating of AuNP can facilitate the sustainability of drug release thanks to the substantially increased particle size of AuNP. These findings demonstrate that the developed prepolymer is a promising candidate for the production of transdermal patches fitting the curvature of the body surface.

Abstract
A highly efficient system incorporates the real-time visualization of the two toxic molecules (H2S and N2H4) and the recognition of corresponding transforms using a fluorescent sensor. In this paper, a dual-responsive probe (QS-DNP) based on methylquinolinium-salicyaldehyde-2,4-dinitrophenyl was developed that can simultaneously detect H2S and N2H4 at two independent fluorescent channels without signal crosstalk. QS-DNP showed excellent anti-interference, high selectivity, outstanding water solubility, low LOD values (H2S: 51 nM; N2H4: 40 nM), low cytotoxicity, and mitochondrial localization properties. The 2,4-dinitrophenyl site was sensitive to H2S, and the CC bridge was reactive to N2H4, with strong fluorescence at 680 and 488 nm, respectively. The wavelength gap between these two channels is 192 nm; verify that there is no signal crosstalk throughout detection. By this means, the probe was used to simultaneously detect H2S and N2H4 in real soil samples, food samples, and living cells. The endogenous H2S and N2H4 were monitored in HeLa cells and investigated the mitochondria organelle of living cells with a positive charge on QS-DNP. Overall, all results emphasize that the QS-DNP probe is a powerful tool for the simultaneous detection of H2S and N2H4 and presents a potential new sensing approach.

Abstract
Many meta-analyses have assessed the efficacy of preventive interventions against ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in critically ill patients. However, there has been no comprehensive analysis of the strength and quality of evidence to date. Systematic reviews of randomized and quasi-randomized controlled trials, which evaluated the effect of preventive strategies on the incidence of VAP in critically ill patients receiving mechanical ventilation for at least 48 h, were included in this article. We identified a total of 34 interventions derived from 31 studies. Among these interventions, 19 resulted in a significantly reduced incidence of VAP. Among numerous strategies, only selective decontamination of the digestive tract (SDD) was supported by highly suggestive (Class II) evidence (risk ratio (RR)=0.439, 95% CI: 0.362-0.532). Based on data from the sensitivity analysis, the evidence for the efficacy of non-invasive ventilation in weaning from mechanical ventilation (NIV) was upgraded from weak (Class IV) to highly suggestive (Class II) (RR=0.32, 95% CI: 0.22-0.46). All preventive interventions were not supported by robust evidence for reducing mortality. Early mobilization exhibited suggestive (Class III) evidence in shortening both intensive length of stay (LOS) in the intensive care unit (ICU) (mean difference (MD)=-0.85, 95% CI: -1.21 to -0.49) and duration of mechanical ventilation (MD=-1.02, 95% CI: -1.41 to -0.63). In conclusion, SDD and NIV are supported by robust evidence for prevention against VAP, while early mobilization has been shown to significantly shorten the LOS in the ICU and the duration of mechanical ventilation. These three strategies are recommendable for inclusion in the ventilator bundle to lower the risk of VAP and improve the prognosis of critically ill patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Serum lipid levels are associated with cancer risk. However, there still have uncertainties about the single and combined effects of low lipid levels on cancer risk. METHODS A prospective cohort study of 33,773 adults in Shanghai between 2016 and 2017 was conducted. Total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels were measured. Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the association of single and combined lipids with overall, lung, colon, rectal, thyroid gland, stomach, and female breast cancers. The effect of the combination of abnormal lipid score and lifestyle on cancer was also estimated. RESULTS A total of 926 incident cancer cases were identified. In the RCS analysis, hazard ratios (HRs) of overall cancer for individuals with TC < 5.18 mmol/L or with LDL-C < 3.40 mmol/L were higher. Low TC was associated with higher colorectal cancer risk (HR [95% CI] = 1.76 [1.09-2.84]) and low HDL-C increased thyroid cancer risk by 90%. Abnormal lipid score was linearly and positively associated with cancer risk, and smokers with high abnormal lipid scores had a higher cancer risk, compared to non-smokers with low abnormal lipid scores (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Low TC levels were associated with an increased risk of overall and colorectal cancer. More attention should be paid to participants with high abnormal lipid scores and unhealthy lifestyles who may have a higher risk of developing cancer. Determining the specific and comprehensive lipid combinations that affect tumorigenesis remains a valuable challenge.

Abstract
Objective: To assess the association between body mass index (BMI) and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) among patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods: This was a multicenter prospective cohort study, which was based on the Improving Care for Cardiovascular Disease in China (CCC) project. The hospitalized patients with ACS aged between 18 and 80 years, registered in CCC project from November 1, 2014 to December 31, 2019 were included. The included patients were categorized into four groups based on their BMI at the time of admission: underweight (BMI<18.5 kg/m2), normal weight (BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 kg/m2), overweight (BMI between 25.0 and 29.9 kg/m2), and obese (BMI≥30.0 kg/m2). Multivariate logistic regression models was used to analyze the relationship between BMI and the risk of in-hospital MACCE. Results: A total of 71 681 ACS inpatients were included in the study. The age was (63.4±14.7) years, and 26.5% (18 979/71 681) were female. And the incidence of MACCE for the underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese groups were 14.9% (322/2 154), 9.5% (3 997/41 960), 7.9% (1 908/24 140) and 7.0% (240/3 427), respectively (P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed a higher incidence of MACCE in the underweight group compared to the normal weight group (OR=1.30, 95%CI 1.13-1.49, P<0.001), while the overweight and obese groups exhibited no statistically significant difference in the incidence of MACCE compared to the normal weight group (both P>0.05). Conclusion: ACS patients with BMI below normal have a higher risk of in-hospital MACCE, suggesting that BMI may be an indicator for evaluating short-term prognosis in ACS patients.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and safety of transcatheter tricuspid valve edge-to-edge repair guided by only transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). Methods: Patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation in Fuwai Yunnan Cardiovascular Hospital who met the inclusion criteria based on clinical and echocardiographic evaluationand underwent transcatheter tricuspid valve edge-to-edge repair between January 2022 and May 2023 were prospectively enrolled. The procedure was performed under general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation and solely guided by TEE. The patients underwent clinical evaluation, electrocardiogram and transthoracic echocardiography one month after the procedure. Results: A total of 22 patients (12 males and 10 females) were included, with an average age of (71.3±6.7) years. All 22 patients successfully underwent the transcatheter tricuspid valve edge-to-edge repair under TEE guidance, with an average of (1.5±0.6) clips implanted. Immediately after procedure, six patients had no or trace regurgitation, 15 patients had mild regurgitation, and one patient had moderate regurgitation. All 22 patients completed 30-day follow-up, with four patients having trace regurgitation, 17 patients having mild regurgitation, and one patient having moderate regurgitation. Echocardiographic measurements revealed that effective regurgitant orifice area, regurgitant volume, vena contracta width, and proximal isovelocity surface area radius significantly decreased after the procedure (all P<0.05). In addition, inferior vena cava width, right atrial volume, tricuspid annular diameter, and right ventricular end-diastolic diameter significantly improved (all P<0.05), but tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion and right ventricular fractional area change did not show significant differences compared with those before the procedure (both P>0.05). Conclusion: It has been preliminarily confirmed that transcatheter tricuspid valve edge-to-edge repair solely guided by TEE is feasible and safe, but requires more large-scale studies for further validation.

Abstract
Substitution can be employed to competently tune the photophysical properties of chemosensors. The effect of substituents on the absorption and emission properties of quinoline probes was investigated. Therefore, salicylaldehyde (S), N-diethylamino-salicylaldehyde (D), and nitro-salicylaldehyde (W)-based quinoline Schiff base derivatives were investigated with hydrazine and studied for their photophysical properties. The nucleophilic substitution reaction was used as a sensing mechanism between the probes and hydrazine and investigated with 1H NMR, HR-MS characterizations, and DFT calculations. The sensitivity of QW-R is greater than that of QS-R and QD-R because of the stronger intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) in QW-R. The calculated LOD values are 28 nM for QS-R, 30 nM for QD-R, and 9 nM for QW-R. The probes were employed to monitor gaseous hydrazine using a smartphone and analyze solution forms of hydrazine in soil, water, and food samples, and living cells. Moreover, the in situ hydrazine release was monitored with bioimaging by administering an isoniazid drug. Significantly, the electronic effect of substituents over fluorescence showing, ranging from electron-donating to electron-withdrawing was investigated. We anticipate that this approach may be a promising strategy for the rational design of fluorescent sensors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is the most common heart disease of the developed world. It has previously been established that metformin administration reduces arterial calcification via autophagy; however, whether metformin directly regulates CAVD has yet to be elucidated. In the present study we investigated whether metformin alleviates valvular calcification through the autophagy-mediated recycling of Runx2. Calcification was reduced in rat valve interstitial cells (RVICs) by metformin treatment (0.5-1.5 mM) (P < 0.01), with a marked decrease in Runx2 protein expression compared to control cells (P < 0.05). Additionally, upregulated expression of Atg3 and Atg7 (key proteins required for autophagosome formation), was observed following metformin treatment (1 mM). Blocking autophagic flux using Bafilomycin-A1 revealed colocalisation of Runx2 with LC3 puncta in metformin treated RVICs (P < 0.001). Comparable Runx2 accumulation was seen in LC3 positive autolysosomes present within cells that had been treated with both metformin and hydroxychloroquine in combination (P < 0.001). Mechanistic studies employing three-way co-immunoprecipitation with Runx2, p62 and LC3 suggested that Runx2 binds to LC3-II upon metformin treatment in VICs. Together these studies suggest that the utilisation of metformin may represent a novel strategy for the treatment of CAVD.

Abstract
Background Cinobufacini is a Chinese medicinal preparation extracted from the traditional Chinese medicine toad skin and is commonly used clinically as an adjuvant treatment for malignant tumours. Purpose To systematically evaluate the effects of Cinobufacini combined with a first-line platinum-based chemotherapy regimen in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), especially in terms of immune function. Materials and methods Eight electronic databases were searched for randomised controlled trials (RCTs) investigating Cinobufacini in conjunction with platinum-based chemotherapy for NSCLC (stage III-IV) published from 2012 to the present. GRADE Pro GDT was used to assess RCT quality and meta-analysis was performed mainly using Review Manager version 5.4, with the assistance of Stata version 16.0 (StataCorp LLC, College Station, TX, USA), and trial sequential analysis software. Results A total of 35 studies were included. Meta-analysis revealed that the combination therapy group exhibited a better disease control rate (DCR) [OR = 2.63, 95%CI (2.15, 3.21), P < 0.00001], with a higher one-year [OR = 2.41,95% CI (1.75,3.33), P < 0.00001], and two-year [OR = 2.28, 95% CI (1.56,3.33), P < 0.00001] survival rate, plus lower leukocyte toxicity [OR = 0.40, 95%CI (0.33,0.49), P < 0.00001]. For immune function, the combination of chemotherapy with Cinobufacini effectively increased the proportion of CD3+ [SMD = 1.15, 95% CI (0.89,1.42), P < 0.00001], CD4+ [SMD = 1.60, 95%CI (1.26,1.94), P < 0.00001] and the CD4+/CD8+ ratio [SMD = 2.15, 95% CI (1.45,2.86), P < 0.00001] in peripheral blood. Conclusion The addition of Cinobufacini to platinum-based chemotherapies for advanced NSCLC significantly improved clinical efficacy, enhanced immune function, and reduced chemotherapeutic toxicity, irrespective of administration and treatment duration.

Abstract
AIM To present an integrated 2-[18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose (18F-FDG) positron-emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) radiomic characterisation of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) status in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). MATERIALS AND METHODS In this retrospective study, 18F-FDG PET/CT images and clinical data of 394 eligible patients were divided into training (n=275) and test sets (n=119). Next, the corresponding nodule of interest was segmented manually on the axial CT images by radiologists. After which, the spatial position matching method was used to match the image positions of CT and PET, and radiomic features of the CT and PET images were extracted. Radiomic models were built using five different machine-learning classifiers and the performance of the radiomic models were further evaluated. Finally, a radiomic signature was established to predict the PD-L1 status in patients with NSCLC using the features in the best performing radiomic model. RESULTS The radiomic model based on the PET intranodular region determined using the logistic regression classifier preformed best, yielding an area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC) of 0.813 (95% CI: 0.812, 0.821) on the test set. The clinical features did not improve the test set AUC (0.806, 95% CI: 0.801, 0.810). The final radiomic signature for PD-L1 status was consisted of three PET radiomic features. CONCLUSION This study showed that an 18F-FDG PET/CT-based radiomic signature could be used as a non-invasive biomarker to discriminate PD-L1-positive from PD-L1-negative in patients with NSCLC.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate and compare the short-term efficacy of domestic mechanical-locked (Clip2Edge) and elastic self-locked (ValveClip) transcranial mitral valve edge-to-edge interventional repair (TEER) devices in the treatment of functional mitral regurgitant valves. Methods: In this retrospective non-randomized comparative study, patients underwent TEER procedure in Fuwai Yunnan Cardiovascular Disease Hospital from May 2022 to April 2023 for heart failure combined with moderate to severe or severe functional mitral valve were divided into Clip2Edge and ValveClip groups based on the TEER system used. Baseline, perioperative, and postoperative 30 d follow-up data were collected and compared between the two groups. The primary outcome was the success rate on the 30 d post operation, while secondary outcomes included immediate postoperative technical success rate and the incidence of all-cause mortality on the 30 d post operation, readmission rate of acute heart failure, cerebral infarction, severe bleeding, and other serious adverse events rates. Results: A total of 60 patients were enrolled, 34 patients were in the Clip2Edge group and 26 in the ValveClip group, mean age was (63.8±9.3) years, and 24 patients (40%) were female. There were no significant differences in baseline data of age, cardiac function, comorbidities, mitral regurgitation 4+(19(73%) vs. 29(85%)), the end-diastolic volume of left ventricle ((220.8±91.2) ml vs. (210.8±71.7) ml) between the two groups (all P>0.05). The technical success rate immediately after the procedure was 100%. There were no readmission of acute heart failure, death, cerebral infarction, severe bleeding, and other serious adverse events up to the 30 d follow-up. Device success rate was similar between the ValveClip group (24 cases (100%)) and the Clip2Edge group (27 cases (96%)) (P>0.05). Conclusion: Both types of novel domestic TEER devices are safe and feasible in treating patients with functional mitral regurgitation.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the optimal intensity of anticoagulation therapy for Chinese patients after mechanical heart valve replacement. Methods: This is a prospective, multicenter, cohort study. The anticoagulation data from in-hospital patients of 35 medical centers and patients in outpatient clinic of 11 medical centers from Anticoagulation Therapy Database of Chinese Patients after Heart Valve Replacement between January 2011 and December 2015 were analyzed. The anticoagulation-relevant complications among different coagulation intensities were compared, and the optimal value of anticoagulation intensity for Chinese patients after mechanical heart valve replacement were analyzed. Results: A total of 24 433 patients were in the final analysis, including 13 634 females and 10 799 males, with a median age of 49.0 (3-80) years. International normalized ratio (INR) values of in-hospital patients were recorded 94 286 times, with the mean value of 1.8±0.7, and 87.6% (82 595/94 286) of them were within the range of 1.5 to 2.5. During a median follow-up time of 19.2 (1.0-58.8) months, a total of 17 331 outpatient clinic patients were followed up, with the follow-up rate of 89.1% (17 331/19 452) and a total of 27 803 patient-years (Pty), including 4 038 aortic valve replacement (AVR), 8 215 mitral valve replacement (MVR), 4 437 AVR plus MVR (double valve replacement, DVR) replacement and 641 tricuspidvalve replacement (TVR). A total of 101 860 INR measurements were recorded, with the mean value of 1.8±0.5, and 64.8% (66 005/101 860) of them were within the range of 1.5-2.5. The rates of anticoagulation-related complications of the patients with INR of 1.5-2.5 (0.65/100 Pty) were lower than those of other INR value patients (INR<1.5: 1.31/100 Pty, RR=2.01, 95%CI: 1.59-2.51, P<0.001; INR>2.5: 2.34/100 Pty, RR=3.60, 95%CI: 2.84-4.52, P<0.001). The rates of anticoagulation-related complications of AVR and MVR patients without risk factors and with INR of 1.5-2.0 were lower than those of other INR value patients (AVR: 0.15/100 Pty vs 0.38/100 Pty, RR=2.57, 95%CI: 1.02-7.28, P=0.029; MVR: 0.23/100 Pty vs 0.56/100 Pty, RR=2.42, 95%CI: 1.39-4.38, P<0.001), and the rate of anticoagulation-related complications of DVR patients with INR of 2.0-2.5 was lower than those of other INR value patients (0.32/100 Pty vs 0.62/100 Pty, RR=1.94, 95%CI: 1.03-3.79, P=0.029). Conclusions: A target INR range of 1.5-2.5 is recommended for Chinese patients after mechanical heart valve replacement. The optimal INR value for isolated AVR or MVR patients without risk factors was 1.5-2.0, while the optimal INR value for isolated AVR or MVR patients with risk factors and all the TVR or DVR patients was 2.0-2.5.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of body mass index (BMI) on mortality of sepsis remain unknown, since previous meta-analyses have reported conflicting results. Several observational studies published recently have provided new evidence. Thus, we performed this updated meta-analysis. METHODS PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochran Library were searched for articles published before February 10, 2023. Observational studies that assessed the association of BMIs with mortality of sepsis patients aged > 18 years were selected. We excluded studies of which data were unavailable for quantitative synthesis. Odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were the effect measure, which were combined using fixed-effect or random-effect models. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was applied for quality assessment. Subgroups analyses were conducted according to potential confounders. RESULTS Fifteen studies (105,159 patients) were included in the overall analysis, which indicated that overweight and obese BMIs were associated with lower mortality (OR: 0.79, 95% CI 0.70-0.88 and OR: 0.74, 95% CI 0.67-0.82, respectively). The association was not significant in patients aged ≤ 50 years (OR: 0.89, 95% CI 0.68-1.14 and OR: 0.77, 95% CI 0.50-1.18, respectively). In addition, the relationship between morbidly obesity and mortality was not significant (OR: 0.91, 95% CI 0.62-1.32). CONCLUSIONS Overweight and obese BMIs (25.0-39.9 kg/m2) are associated with reduced mortality of patients with sepsis or septic shock, although such survival advantage was not found in all crowds. Trial registration The protocol of this study was registered in PROSPERO (registration number CRD42023399559).

Abstract
This study aims to analyze the clinical characteristics and genetic variations of two cases with developmental delay and lactic acidosis in a family, and to explore the relationship between genetic variations and clinical features. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical characteristics of two siblings with developmental delay and lactic acidosis who were treated at the Neonatal Department of Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University in May 2019 and December 2021, respectively. Whole-exome sequencing was used to detect genetic variations in the affected children. Homology modeling of the BCS1L protein was performed to analyze the structural and functional changes of the protein. The correlation between genetic variations and clinical phenotypes was analyzed. The results showed that the main clinical features of the two affected children in this family were manifestations of mitochondrial respiratory chain complex Ⅲ deficiency, including prematurity, developmental delay, respiratory failure, lactic acidosis, cholestasis, liver dysfunction, renal tubular lesions, coagulation dysfunction, anemia, hypoglycemia, hypotonia, and early death. Whole-exome sequencing revealed a novel deletion mutation c.486_488delGGA (p.E163del) and a novel missense mutation c.992C>T (p.T331I) in the BCS1L gene. Structural analysis of the homology modeling showed that the compound heterozygous mutation had a significant impact on protein function. In conclusion, the novel mutation site c.992C>T (p.T331I) in the BCS1L gene is a "likely pathogenic" mutation, and the compound heterozygous mutation is closely related to the phenotype of mitochondrial respiratory chain complex Ⅲ deficiency.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evidence for the mucolytic and expectorant efficacy of intravenous (IV) N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is limited. This study aimed to evaluate in a large, multicenter, randomized, controlled, subject, and rater-blinded study whether IV NAC is superior to placebo and non-inferior to ambroxol in improving sputum viscosity and expectoration difficulty. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 333 hospitalized subjects from 28 centers in China with respiratory disease (such as acute bronchitis, chronic bronchitis and exacerbations, emphysema, mucoviscidosis, and bronchiectasis) and abnormal mucus secretion were randomly allocated in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive NAC 600 mg, ambroxol hydrochloride 30 mg, or placebo as an IV infusion twice daily for 7 days. Mucolytic and expectorant efficacy was assessed by ordinal categorical 4-point scales and analyzed by stratified and modified Mann-Whitney U statistics. RESULTS NAC showed consistent and statistically significant superiority to placebo and non-inferiority to ambroxol in change from baseline to day 7 in both sputum viscosity scores [mean (SD) difference 0.24 (0.763), p<0.001 vs. placebo] and expectoration difficulty score [mean (SD) difference 0.29 (0.783), p=0.002 vs. placebo]. Safety findings confirm the good tolerability profile of IV NAC reported from previous small studies, and no new safety concerns were identified. CONCLUSIONS This is the first large, robust study of the efficacy of IV NAC in respiratory diseases with abnormal mucus secretion. It provides new evidence for IV NAC administration in this indication in clinical situations where the IV route is preferred.

Abstract
Au nanoparticles (NPs) have been proven to be excellent glucose oxidase (GOx) mimics, which can catalyze the electrons transform pathway from glucose to oxygen. This study confirmed AuNPs can accelerate the reaction between [Ag(NH3)2]+ and glucose under alkaline conditions, which is also known as the Tollens' reaction, and the possible mechanism was proposed. Here, [Ag(NH3)2]+ instead of O2 acted directedly as an electron acceptor during glucose oxidation catalyzed by AuNPs, accompanied by hydrogen transfer. The as-synthesized Ag nanoparticles can also catalyze this process, similar to AuNPs, via a unique cascading catalysis mechanism in the Tollens' reaction. A simple and heatless glucose colorimetric assay can be established based on the plasmonic band of AgNPs with a liner range of 0.6-22.2 μM, and the limit of detection is 0.32 μM.

Abstract
Naphthol hydrazone derivatives are recognized as efficient chelating agents for both qualitative and quantitative detection of metal ions. Here we design a naphthol hydrazine-based chemosensor with covalently linking a strong electron-withdrawing benzothiadiazole group to modulate the molecular electronic structure, nominated as NtHzBtd. The fluorescent probe performs excellent selectivity and sensitivity towards Fe3+ with 1:1 binding stoichiometry, while exhibiting a quick response at 55 s with a relatively low limit of detection of 0.036 µM. A series of spectroscopic measurements in tandem with theoretical calculations suggest that the probe undergoes both intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) and chelation enhanced quenching (CHEQ) processes. Successful color rendering of paper strips and bioimaging in PC3 cells demonstrate the promising applicability of NtHzBtd for portable Fe3+ detection in real samples and biosystems.

Abstract
PURPOSE Growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenomas (GH-PAs) with a low Knosp grade are typically associated with a good postoperative biochemical remission (BR) rate. However, a proportion of patients do not achieve remission. In this study, we aimed to investigate predictive factors of postoperative remission for lower Knosp GH-PAs. METHODS In this retrospective study, we enrolled 140 patients who were diagnosed with lower Knosp (0-2) GH-PAs and received trans-sphenoidal surgery between December 2016 and June 2021 from the largest pituitary tumor surgery center in southern China. The univariate, binary Logistic regression, and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analyses were employed to determine independent predictors and cutoff values of remission. The postoperative outcome was defined as remission using the 2010 consensus criteria of acromegaly. RESULTS One hundred and thirty six patients (97.1%) achieved gross total resection. The postoperative long-term BR was 68.6%. Empty sella, tumor maximum diameter and postoperative GH levels were independent factors predicting remission. ROC revealed that postoperative 24 h GH ≤ 1.3 ng/mL and ≤ 1.23 ng/mL were valuable predictors for 3-month and long-term remission respectively, and that postoperative 3-month GH ≤ 1.6 ng/mL and tumor maximum diameter ≤ 17 mm were predictors for delayed remission. CONCLUSION Early postoperative GH levels can be used as predictors of remission. However, BR was not associated with preoperative somatostatin analogs therapy or Knosp grade (0-2). For patients without residual tumor or recurrence and whose GH levels are slightly elevated within 1 year after surgery, adjuvant treatments may not be necessary.

Abstract
PURPOSE Prolactinomas are one of the most common pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs), accounting for approximately 50% of all pituitary tumors. Dopamine agonists are the main treatment for prolactinoma, but a small number of patients are still resistant to pharmacotherapy. Recent discoveries have revealed that ferroptosis is involved in regulating tumor drug resistance. However, the role of ferroptosis in prolactinoma has not been reported. In this study, we aimed to explore the mechanism of a circRNA in ferroptosis in prolactinoma. METHODS The expression of circOMA1 in prolactinoma tissues was examined by quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR). The biological function of circOMA1 was evaluated in vitro and in vivo. To explore the role of ferroptosis in prolactinoma, we used qRT-PCR and western blotting. Glutamate-cysteine ligase, modifier subunit (GCLM) was predicted to be a direct target gene of miR-145-5p by bioinformatics analysis, which was confirmed by luciferase reporter assays. RESULTS circOMA1 was overexpressed in drug-resistant prolactinoma tissues compared with sensitive prolactinoma samples. We further found that circOMA1 promoted MMQ cells growth in vivo and in vitro. In addition, GCLM was directly targeted by miR-145-5p and indirectly regulated by circOMA1. Importantly, circOMA1 induced ferroptosis resistance through the increased expression of Nrf2, GPX4, and xCT, and circOMA1 attenuated CAB-induced ferroptosis in MMQ cells in vivo and in vitro. CONCLUSION The present study demonstrates that circOMA1 attenuates CAB efficacy through ferroptosis resistance and may be a new therapeutic target for the individualized treatment of DA-resistant prolactinoma patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) not only causes a range of respiratory symptoms but also has a great impact on individual mental health. With the global pandemic of SARS-CoV-2, the incidence of COVID-19 comorbid with depression has increased significantly. Curcumin, a natural polyphenol compound, has been shown to have antidepressant and anti-coronavirus activities. METHODS This study aimed to explore the molecular targets and underlying biological mechanisms of curcumin in the treatment of COVID-19 with depression through an integrative pharmacology strategy, including target prediction, network analysis, PPI analysis, GO and KEGG enrichment analyses, and molecular docking. RESULTS After a comprehensive search and thorough analysis, 8 core targets (ALB, AKT1, CASP3, STAT3, EGFR, PTGS2, FOS, and SERPINE1) were identified. GO and KEGG enrichment analysis results revealed that the pathways related to viral infection, immune regulation, neuronal reorganization, apoptosis, and secretion of inflammatory cytokines were involved in the pathological process. Furthermore, molecular docking showed that curcumin could spontaneously bind to the SARS-CoV-2-related receptor proteins and the core targets with a strong binding force. CONCLUSION The potential pharmacological mechanisms of curcumin in COVID-19 comorbid depression were evaluated. Curcumin can be used as a therapeutic agent for COVID-19 comorbid depression. One of the potential mechanisms may be to reduce the inflammatory response and suppress the cytokine storm by regulating the JAK-STAT signaling pathway and MAPK signaling pathway. These findings may help to overcome the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on psychological health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Failure of Alzheimer's disease and related diseases (ADRD) research studies to include and engage Black participants is a major issue, which limits the impact and generalizability of research findings. Little is known about participation of Black adults in online ADRD-related research registries. OBJECTIVES As part of the Community Engaged Digital Alzheimer's Research (CEDAR) Study, this study aims to increase our understanding of facilitators and barriers of Black adults to participating in ADRD-related online registries, as well as to understand their preferences for communication channels. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, MEASUREMENTS We invited all Black participants enrolled in the Brain Health Registry (BHR) to complete a cross-sectional online survey. The survey consisted of rating scales and open-text questions asking about their attitudes towards brain health research, reasons for joining and continuing to participate in BHR, difficulties with participating, and preferences for modes of contact and website usage. RESULTS Of all invited Black BHR participants (N=3,636), 198 (5.5%) completed the survey. The mean age was 58.4 (SD=11.3), mean years of education were 16.3 (SD=2.4), and 85.5% identified as female. Reported facilitators for joining and continuing to participate in BHR were personal interest (e.g., learning more about own brain health) and altruism (e.g., helping research). Among additional registry features which could encourage return, receiving feedback or scores about BHR tasks was rated the highest. Of those who found BHR participation difficult (21%), the most frequent reason was time burden. The most preferred way of receiving study information was via email. Participants reported that the websites that they used the most were YouTube and Facebook. DISCUSSION The results of our study can inform the development of culturally-responsive registry features and engagement efforts to improve inclusion and participation of Black adults in online ADRD research. Providing participants with feedback about their registry performance and reducing the number of registry tasks are among the recommended strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although Black/African American older adults bear significant inequities in prevalence, incidence, and outcomes of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias, they are profoundly under-included in Alzheimer's Disease research. Community-Engaged Research (e.g., equitable community/science partnerships) is an evidence-based approach for improving engagement of underrepresented populations into Alzheimer's Disease research, but has lacked scalability to the national level. As internet use among older adults from underrepresented populations continues to grow, internet-based research shows promise as a feasible, valid approach to engagement and longitudinal assessment. The Community Engaged Digital Alzheimer's Research (CEDAR) study utilizes a community-engaged research approach to increase the engagement and research participation of Black/African American adults in the Brain Health Registry (BHR) and Alzheimer Disease clinical research. OBJECTIVES To describe the methods and evaluate the feasibility of the CEDAR culturally-informed digital platform within BHR. DESIGN All Black/African American participants in BHR were invited to enroll in CEDAR and to consider serving on a newly convened Community-Scientific Partnership Board to guide the study. The community board guided the development a culturally-informed cadre of engagement materials and strategies to increase research participation. Engagement strategies included incentives for study task completion, culturally-informed communications (e.g., landing page, emails and social media), resources about brain health, and video and written testimonials by CEDAR participants. SETTING BHR, an Internet-based registry and cohort. PARTICIPANTS BHR participants self-identifying as Black/African American were invited to enroll. All participants who signed an online informed consent document were enrolled. MEASUREMENTS We report the number of participants invited, enrolled, completed tasks, and volunteered to join the community board. We compared the demographics, cognitive profile, and baseline BHR task completion rates between CEDAR participants and all those invited to join the study. RESULTS Of 3738 invited, 349 (9.34%) enrolled in CEDAR. 134 (37% of CEDAR participants) volunteered to join the community board, of which 19 were selected for the community board. Compared to those invited, the CEDAR cohort had a higher percentage of female participants (84.5%) and a lower percentage of participants who identify as belonging to more than one ethnocultural group (21.8%). Compared to those did not enroll in CEDAR, those enrolled in CEDAR had a higher percentage of participants completing all BHR tasks (22%) and a higher percentage of participants completing at least one cognitive test (76%). Those enrolled in CEDAR also had a higher percentage of participants having an enrolled study partner (18%). CONCLUSIONS A culturally-informed Community-Engaged Research approach, including a remotely-convened community board, to engagement of Black/African American participants in an online research registry is feasible. This approach can be adapted for use in various clinical studies and other settings. Future studies will evaluate the effectiveness of the engagement strategies.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the effect of "one-stop" outpatient management on the therapeutic schedule and control rate of patients with metabolic disorders. Methods: A total of 332 patients who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled and treated regularly in the "one-stop" outpatient department of the Department of Cardiology of the Third Hospital of Peking University from November 1, 2020 to April 30, 2022. The general information, personal history, family history, drug treatment plan, blood pressure, height, weight, waist circumference, and hip circumference of patients were collected through the outpatient electronic medical record system, and patients were followed up through conducting "one-stop" comprehensive management. The baseline clinical characteristics were analyzed, and the changes of metabolic indexes, treatment conditions and control rate of patients with different metabolic disorders before and after the "one-stop" outpatient management were compared. Results: The time interval between the first visit and the last visit was 44 (26, 60) weeks in 332 patients, whose age was (57.2±13.2) years, including 219 males (66.0%). After the "one-stop" outpatient management, fasting blood glucose (FBG) [ 6.6 (5.6, 7.9) mmol/L vs 6.3 (5.6, 6.9) mmol/L], glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) [ (7.2±1.5) % vs (6.6±0.8) %], low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) [ 2.70 (1.97, 3.55) mmol/L vs 2.04 (1.66, 2.63) mmol/L] and blood uric acid (UA) [ (383.7±107.1) μmol/L vs (341.2±90.6) μmol/L] all decreased significantly (all P values<0.05). The control rates of hypertension (19.8% vs 28.2%), diabetes (45.2% vs 66.5%), hyperlipidemia (54.9% vs 87.6%) and hyperuricemia (16.7% vs 49.0%) were significantly improved after the "one-stop" outpatient management (all P values<0.05). Conclusion: The "one-stop" outpatient management of cardiovascular department can significantly improve the metabolic condition and the control rate of patients with multiple metabolic disorders.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic value and application of 24 h multichannel intraluminal impedance-pH (24 h MII-pH) monitoring in children with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Methods: This is a cross-sectional study. From January 2013 to December, 2020, 417 patients who received 24 h MII-pH monitoring in Department of Gastroenterology of Children's Hospital Capital Institute of Pediatrics were included. According to results, these children were divided into the GERD and non-GERD groups. Furthermore, the 132 children with GERD who had gastroscopy were divided into the reflux esophagitis (RE) and non-erosive reflux disease (NE) groups to investigate the differences in their refluxes. Non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test or indepentent sample t test was used for comparisons between the groups. Results: Among the 417 children, 232 were males and 185 females, aged (7.3±3.9) years. The course of disease was 0.5 (0.1, 2.0) years. The main clinical symptoms included acid reflux (128 cases), vomiting (173 cases), abdominal pain (101 cases), and cough (76 cases). The 24 h MII-pH monitoring were positive in 243 children (58.3%, 243/417), which was higher than that by 24 h esophageal pH monitoring (43.6%, 182/417). The 24 h MII-pH monitoring results demonstrated significant differences in the episodes of acid reflux, weakly acidic reflux, non-acidic reflux, liquid reflux and mixed reflux between GERD and non-GERD groups (10 (4, 19) vs. 4 (1, 9) times/24 h, 14 (6, 32) vs. 7 (3, 13) times/24 h, 0 (0, 0) vs. 0 (0, 0) times/24 h, 19 (10, 34) vs. 8 (3, 14) times/24 h, and 6 (2, 12) vs. 3 (1, 5) times/24 h, Z=-6.96, -7.25, -5.62, -8.75, and -6.48, all P<0.05, respectively). Besides, the results also showed significant differences in Boix-Ochoa score, episodes of long reflux, course of long reflux, and episodes of weakly acidic reflux between the RE and NE groups (51.2 (21.4, 153.2) vs. 20.7 (12.1, 34.7), 5 (2, 10) vs. 1 (0, 4) times/24 h, 19 (7, 87) vs. 8 (3, 22) min, and 5 (2, 15) vs. 15 (6, 33) times/24 h, Z=-3.44, -3.41, -2.65, and -2.27, all P<0.05, respectively). Conclusion: 24 h MII-pH monitoring not only improves the detection rate of GERD in children, but also provides a possibility to early etiological diagnosis.

Abstract
A thiophene substituted naphthyl hydrazone derivative NHT was synthesized using a one-step route for the detection of trivalent chromium (Cr3+). UV-visible absorption and emission spectra, density functional theory calculations as well as 1H NMR titration confirmed that the probe underwent a turn-off response via the chelation enhanced fluorescence quenching effect upon exposure to Cr3+ and the NHT-Cr3+ complex was formed at a 1:1 binding stoichiometry. NHT exhibited a fast response rate of 2.3 min in buffer solution and a relatively low limit of detection of 41 nM. In addition, the Schiff base chemosensor exhibited excellent selectivity with high affinity towards Cr3+ in the presence of other competing cations. Bioimaging of the probe in PC3 cells further demonstrated the potential real life application of the probe in detecting Cr3+.

Abstract
Objectives: To analyze the effects of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and eradication therapy on small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). Methods: From September to December 2021, patients with abdominal symptoms who received 13C urea breath test at the Department of Gastroenterology in Peking University First Hospital were enrolled.13C urea breath test was used to detect H. pylori infection and patients were divided into H. pylori positive and negative groups accordingly. Lactulose hydrogen methane breath test was performed to determine SIBO. H. pylori positive patients were treated with quadruple therapy including amoxicillin, metronidazole, rabeprazole and bismuth potassium citrate. 13C urea breath test and lactulose hydrogen methane breath test were reexamined 6 weeks after the treatment. Results: A total of 102 patients (49 males and 53 females) were enrolled, with a mean age of (42.1±9.9) years. Among them, 49 patients were H. pylori negative and 53 were H. pylori positive. Moreover, 47 patients were SIBO positive and 55 were SIBO negative. There was no significant difference in age, sex, body mass index, abdominal symptoms and the diagnosis of chronic atrophic gastritis between H. pylori positive and negative patients at the enrollment (all P>0.05). The detection rate of SIBO in H. pylori infected patients was higher than that in uninfected patients, and the difference was statistically significant (60.4% vs 30.6%, P=0.003). Patients with SIBO had significantly more frequent abdominal distension (36.2% vs 10.9%, P=0.002) and constipation (27.7% vs 1.8%, P<0.001) than patients without SIBO. The rate of SIBO after H. pylori eradication treatment was significantly lower than that before treatment (20.8% vs 60.4%, P<0.001). The remission rate of SIBO after eradication therapy was 66.7% (20/30). Besides, patients had obvious improvement of constipation (6.0% vs 18.9%, P=0.008), and the incidence of other abdominal symptoms decreased to various degrees including diarrhea, abdominal pain, abdominal distention and poor appetite. Conclusion: H. pylori infection increases the risk of SIBO, and the quadruple regimen containing amoxicillin and metronidazole has a therapeutic effect for patients with H.pylori infection and concomitant SIBO.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of polyethylene glycol loxenatide (long-acting GLP-1R agonist) on the lipid, glucose levels, and weight in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with obesity. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 40 obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in our hospital from July 2019 to June 2020 were randomly divided into a control group and a study group. The study group was treated with metformin and polyethylene glycol loxenatide injection, while the control group was treated with metformin. RESULTS Before treatment, there was no significant difference in FPG (Fasting Blood Glucose) and PPG (Post Prandial Glycaemia) levels between the study group and the control group (p>0.05). After a treatment period, the FPG and PPG levels in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group (p<0.05). With the longer treatment time, the patient's weight and BMI were lower (p<0.05). The weight and BMI of patients changed the least after one month of treatment, and the weight and BMI changed the most after more than seven months of treatment. After a period of treatment, the levels of FPG and PPG in the blood of male patients in the study group were significantly lower than those of female patients (p<0.05). After treatment, the TG level of the study group was significantly lower than that of the control group (p<0.05). In comparison, the HDL-C level was significantly higher than that of the control group (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Lipid and glucose levels of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with obesity have decreased after 12 weeks of polyethylene glycol loxanatide use. The weight of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with obesity has changed after using polyethylene glycol loxenatide for a period of treatment. Among them, there is a certain relationship between body weight and treatment time, gender, and original body weight, which is worthy of further research and promotion in clinical practice.

Abstract
We use an x-ray free-electron laser to study the lattice dynamics following photoexcitation with ultrafast near-UV light (wavelength 266 nm, 50 fs pulse duration) of the incipient ferroelectric potassium tantalate, KTaO_{3}. By probing the lattice dynamics corresponding to multiple Brillouin zones through the x-ray diffuse scattering with pulses from the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) (wavelength 1.3 Å and <10 fs pulse duration), we observe changes in the diffuse intensity associated with a hardening of the transverse acoustic phonon branches along Γ to X and Γ to M. Using force constants from density functional theory, we fit the quasiequilibrium intensity and obtain the instantaneous lattice temperature and density of photoexcited charge carriers. The density functional theory calculations demonstrate that photoexcitation transfers charge from oxygen 2p derived π-bonding orbitals to Ta 5d derived antibonding orbitals, further suppressing the ferroelectric instability and increasing the stability of the cubic, paraelectric structure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Compound Kushen injection (CKI) is a Chinese patented medicine that improves the immunity level of cancer patients and inhibits tumor cell proliferation and metastasis. Clinically, CKI is widely used in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy (PBC) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment. This study attempted to systemically evaluate the efficacy and safety of a combination of CKI and PBC for NSCLC treatment by modulating the immune function. PURPOSE To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of CKI in combination with PBC for NSCLC. MATERIALS AND METHODS English and Chinese databases were retrieved for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of NSCLC treatment using a combination of CKI and PBC, and the changes of peripheral blood T lymphocytes (such as CD3+ T cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells), and CD4+/CD8+ T cell ratio among NSCLC patients were detected before and after treatment using CKI with PBC. The search deadline was set as November 2021. The systemic evaluation was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. The methodology and quality of each study included in the systemic evaluation were assessed. Review Manager 5.4, Stata12.0, and trial sequential analysis (TSA) were used for data analysis. The outcome indicators were qualified using GRADEprofiler software. RESULTS A total of 25 RCTs involving 2460 cases of patients were included. The results showed that the combination of CKI with PBC effectively increased the objective response rate (ORR) [relative risk (RR) = 1.31, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.19, 1.44)] and disease control rate (DCR) [RR = 1.16, 95%CI (1.09,1.23)], regulated the expression of peripheral blood T lymphocytes (such as CD3+T cells, CD4+T cells, CD8+T cells, and CD4+/CD8+T cell ratio), upregulated the level of serum immunoglobulins (such as IgA, IgG, and IgM), and reduced the frequency of gastrointestinal reaction, marrow inhibition, hepatorenal toxicity, reduction of white blood cells and blood platelets, baldness, infection, neutrophilic granulocyte counts, diarrhea, or constipation. According to subgroup analysis results, chemotherapy cycles (1-2) had a more significant effect on DCR. A combination of CKI and GP regimens had better effects on improving CD3+T cell levels, and there were no significant changes among other chemotherapies regiments. CONCLUSION A combination of CKI and PBC had a marked effect in improving tumor response, priming immune function, and decreasing the frequency of adverse reactions, which was safe for NSCLC treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Kangai injection (KAI) is a well-known Chinese patent medicine applied for several different types of cancers in the clinic as an auxiliary therapeutic approach, which is refined from three herbal extracts (Astragalus, Ginseng and Matrine). PURPOSE To systematically evaluate the effect of combination treatment of platinum-based chemotherapy and KAI on patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). STUDY DESIGN A meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials. MATERIALS AND METHODS The randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ NSCLC using KAI combined platinum-based chemotherapy were electronically retrieved from eight electronic databases up to July 2021. We applied RevMan 5.4, Stata 16.0, TSA 0.9.5.10 Beta and GRADE Pro-GDT to evaluate the quality of the included RCTs and perform the meta-analysis. RESULTS 19 RCTs were included, consisting a total sample size of 1,389 cases. Meta-analysis revealed that compared with chemotherapy alone, KAI combined with platinum-based chemotherapy was associated with significantly higher objective response rate (ORR) [RR = 1.36, 95%CI (1.21,1.54), p< 0.00001], higher disease control rate (DCR) [RR = 1.15, 95%CI (1.09,1.21), p< 0.00001], greater Karnofsky performance status (KPS) [RR = 1.75, 95%CI (1.41,2.18), p< 0.00001], lower white blood cell toxicity [RR = 0.67, 95%CI (0.55,0.82), p = 0.0001], lower platelet toxicity [RR = 0.60, 95%CI (0.47,0.75), P < 0.0001], and lower incidence of vomiting [RR = 0.66, 95%CI (0.57,0.76), p< 0.00001]. In terms of the immune function, KAI united with chemotherapy significantly raised the ratio of CD3+ cells [MD = 10.65, 95%CI (8.21,13.09), p< 0.00001], CD4+ cells [MD = 7.67, 95%CI (6.31,9.03), p< 0.00001], NK cells [MD = 4.97, 95%CI (3.03,6.92), p< 0.00001], and CD4+/ CD8+ [MD = 0.32, 95%CI (0.19,0.45), p< 0.00001], and decreased the percentage of CD8+ cells [MD = -5.56, 95%CI (-7.51,-3.61), p< 0.00001]. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis identified that the combination treatment of KAI and platinum-based chemotherapy was more beneficial to patients with advanced NSCLC when compared to chemotherapy alone, which could significantly improve the clinical efficacy, enhance the immune function, and reduce chemotherapy toxicity. Our study provides a theoretical basis and treatment guidance for patients with NSCLC.

Abstract
X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) deliver pulses of coherent X-rays on the femtosecond time scale, with potentially high repetition rates. While XFELs provide high peak intensities, both the intensity and the centroid of the beam fluctuate strongly on a pulse-to-pulse basis, motivating high-rate beam diagnostics that operate over a large dynamic range. The fast drift velocity, low X-ray absorption and high radiation tolerance properties of chemical vapour deposition diamonds make these crystals a promising candidate material for developing a fast (multi-GHz) pass-through diagnostic for the next generation of XFELs. A new approach to the design of a diamond sensor signal path is presented, along with associated characterization studies performed in the XPP endstation of the LINAC Coherent Light Source (LCLS) at SLAC. Qualitative charge collection profiles (collected charge versus time) are presented and compared with those from a commercially available detector. Quantitative results on the charge collection efficiency and signal collection times are presented over a range of approximately four orders of magnitude in the generated electron-hole plasma density.

Abstract
We report the observation of photo-induced plasmon-phonon coupled modes in the group IV-VI semiconductor PbTe using ultrafast x-ray diffuse scattering at the Linac Coherent Light Source. We measure the near-zone-center excited-state dispersion of the heavily screened longitudinal optical (LO) phonon branch as extracted from differential changes in x-ray diffuse scattering intensity following above bandgap photoexcitation. We suggest that upon photoexcitation, the LO phonon-plasmon coupled (LOPC) modes themselves become coupled to longitudinal acoustic modes that drive electron band shifts via acoustic deformation potentials and possibly to low-energy single-particle excitations within the plasma and that these couplings give rise to displacement-correlations that oscillate in time with a period given effectively by the heavily screened LOPC frequency.

Abstract
A new Schiff base probe (QT) consisting of 8-aminoquinoline (Q) and thiophene-2-carboxaldehyde (T) moieties has been synthesized. QT undergoes chelation-enhanced fluorescence quenching when exposed to Hg2+ due to coordination by the sulfur and nitrogen atoms of QT thus forming a facile "turn-off" sensor. The formation of the chelation complex was confirmed by UV-visible absorption and emission spectral measurements, 1H NMR titration and density functional theory calculations. These studies revealed that the probe exhibits high selectivity and sensitivity towards Hg2+ in the presence of other common metal ions. A low detection limit of 23.4 nM was determined and a Job plot confirmed a 2:1 stoichiometry between QT and Hg2+. The potential utility of QT as a sensor for Hg2+ ions in human HeLa cells was determined by confocal fluorescence microscopy, and its suitability for use in the field with environmental samples was tested with Whatman filter paper strips.

Abstract
This work describes (Z)-N-((Z)-2-(1,3,3-trimethylindolin-2ylidene)ethylidene)quinoline-8-amine (LYSO-QF), a high-performing and biocompatible dye comprised of quinoline and Fisher aldehyde moieties linked via an imine vinyl backbone with lysosome targeting ability that can be used to quantitatively detect the mercury ion (Hg2+) in biosystems and the natural environment. This is achieved by forming three different tetrameric, trimeric and dimeric complexes between Hg2+ and LYSO-QF with the limit of detection (LOD) of 11 nm. The complexes formed were analyzed with the aid of time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations. The concentration dependence of the Hg2+ complex fluorescence emission changes from grey-green to jade green and then to red as the different types of complex are formed. The favorable sensor properties of the LYSO-QF probe are demonstrated by monitoring different Hg2+ concentrations in buffer solutions, HeLa cells, zebrafish model samples and several different types of water sample. Experiments with Whatman paper strips demonstrate that the cost-effective LYSO-QF also has considerable potential for use in on-site Hg2+ detection with the naked eye.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the efficacy and safety of stereotactic electroencephalography (SEEG)-guided conformal radiofrequency thermocoagulation for epilepsy caused by focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) in eloquent cortex. Methods: The data of epilepsy patients with conformal thermocoagulation in the Epilepsy Center of Guangdong Sanjiu Brain Hospital from September 2017 to August 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. SEEG electrodes were placed in patients with drug-refractory epilepsy caused by FCD in eloquent cortex with limited boundaries, which was confirmed by preoperative evaluation methods such as imaging and electroencephalography. When designing the electrode placement plan, related software was used to reconstruct the three-dimensional MRI image and lesion. SEEG electrode contacts should be designed to fully cover the lesion as much as possible. After the completion of SEEG monitoring and cortical electrical stimulation, the pre-thermocoagulation and permanent thermocoagulation modes were used in sequence. The mode of direct damage between adjacent contacts of a single electrode and cross-destruction between adjacent contacts of multiple electrodes was combined to ablate the lesions point by point. Results: A total of 22 patients were enrolled, ranging from 2 to 30 years old, with an average age of (15±9) years old. MRI showed that FCD lesions located at pre-central gyrus in 19 cases, at post-central gyrus in 3 cases, at left frontal lobe in 3 cases, at both pre-central and post-central gyrus in 1 case and at both pre-central and left frontal lobe in 2 cases. The length of the lesion was 1.2-4.0 cm, with an average length of (2.2±0.7) cm. Moreover, 7-12 SEEG electrodes were implanted, with an average of (9±2) electrodes. The number of electrodes passing through the lesion was 2-8, with an average of 5±2. The number of thermocoagulation target points was 6 to 83, with an average of 29±18, while the number of target points which proved to have function by cortical simulation was 0-21, with a median of 3.5. The number of direct thermocoagulation target points was 6 to 58, with an average of 23±13, while the number of cross thermocoagulation target points was 0 to 30, with a median of 3. The completion of the whole thermocoagulation was divided into 2 to 5 times. There were 11 cases (50%) who experienced immediate muscle strength decline, 1 case (4.5%) showed slower speech speed during thermocoagulation, 3 cases (13.6%) exhibited muscle strength decline after thermocoagulation, however, only 1 case (4.5%) had permanent hemiparalysis. There were 17 cases of Engel Ⅰ (77.3%), 3 cases of Engel Ⅱ (13.6%), and 2 case of Engel Ⅲ (9.1%), respectively, after follow-up for 6-42 months, with an average of (20±10) months. Conclusion: SEEG-guided conformal radiofrequency thermocoagulation is safe and effective for epilepsy caused by FCD in eloquent cortex with limited boundaries.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE DNA damage induced by ROS is considered one of the main causes of nucleus pulposus (NP) cells degeneration during the progression of intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD). cGAS-STING pathway acts as DNA-sensing mechanism for monitoring DNA damage. Recent studies have proved that cGAS-STING contributes to the development of various diseases by inducing inflammation, senescence, and apoptosis. This work explored the role of STING, the main effector of cGAS-STING signaling pathway, in NP degeneration. METHOD Immunohistochemistry was conducted to measure STING protein levels in the nucleus pulposus tissues from human and puncture-induced IVDD rat models. TBHP induces degeneration of nucleus pulposus cells in vitro. For in vivo experiments, lv-NC or lv-STING were injected into the central intervertebral disc space. The degeneration level of IVDD was assessed by MRI, X-ray, HE, and Safranin O staining. RESULTS We found that the expression of STING was upregulated in human and rat degenerated NP tissue as well as in TBHP-treated NP cells. Overexpression of STING promoted the degradation of extracellular matrix; it also promoted apoptosis and senescence of TBHP-treated and untreated NP cells. Knock-down of STING significantly reversed these effects. Mechanistically, STING activated IRF3, whereas blockage of IRF3 attenuated STING-induced apoptosis, senescence and ECM degradation. In vivo experiments revealed that STING knock-down alleviated puncture-induced IVDD development. CONCLUSION STING promotes IVDD progress via IRF3, while suppression of STING may be a promising treatment for IVDD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the karyotypes and C bands of Triatoma rubrofasciata in China, so as to understand its chromosome number, morphology and C-band staining of T. rubrofasciata. METHODS The testis specimens were sampled from male T. rubrofasciata collected from Shunde City, Guangdong Province, prepared into slides of metaphase chromosomes and subjected to Giemsa staining and C-band staining. The morphology of metaphase chromosomes and the location of heterochromatin were observed using microscopy, and the long arm and short arm of each chromosome and total chromosome length were recorded to analyze the karyotypes and C bands of T. rubrofasciata. RESULTS The male T. rubrofasciata presented a chromosome number of 2n = 25, including 22 autosomes and 3 sex chromosomes. The relative length of chromosomes ranged from 3.59% to 12.76%, the arm ratio was 1.06 to 1.24, and the centromere index was 44.76% to 48.47%. All chromosomes were metacentric chromosomes and the karyotype formula was 2n = 22 metacentric + X1X2Y, and the C bands varied on different chromosomes. No heterochromatin was found in the X chromosome, and the overall staining appeared pale, while heterochromatin was detected in all regions of the Y chromosome, and the overall staining appeared dark. In addition, heterochromatin was present in both ends of the autosome. CONCLUSIONS The male T. rubrofasciata presents a chromosome number of 2n = 25 in China, and the karyotype formula is 2n = 22 metacentric + X1X2Y. C-banding shows dark staining of the Y chromosome, pale staining of the X chromosome, and dark staining of both ends of the autosome. Our data may provide insights into the investigation on the origin, evolution and gene mapping of T. rubrofasciata in China.

Abstract
Importance. The last decade has witnessed the advances of cognitive computing technologies that learn at scale and reason with purpose in medicine studies. From the diagnosis of diseases till the generation of treatment plans, cognitive computing encompasses both data-driven and knowledge-driven machine intelligence to assist health care roles in clinical decision-making. This review provides a comprehensive perspective from both research and industrial efforts on cognitive computing-based CDSS over the last decade.Highlights. (1) A holistic review of both research papers and industrial practice about cognitive computing-based CDSS is conducted to identify the necessity and the characteristics as well as the general framework of constructing the system. (2) Several of the typical applications of cognitive computing-based CDSS as well as the existing systems in real medical practice are introduced in detail under the general framework. (3) The limitations of the current cognitive computing-based CDSS is discussed that sheds light on the future work in this direction.Conclusion. Different from medical content providers, cognitive computing-based CDSS provides probabilistic clinical decision support by automatically learning and inferencing from medical big data. The characteristics of managing multimodal data and computerizing medical knowledge distinguish cognitive computing-based CDSS from other categories. Given the current status of primary health care like high diagnostic error rate and shortage of medical resources, it is time to introduce cognitive computing-based CDSS to the medical community which is supposed to be more open-minded and embrace the convenience and low cost but high efficiency brought by cognitive computing-based CDSS.
