Abstract
BACKGROUND For patients with steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (SR-aGVHD), effective second-line regimens are urgently needed. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have been used as salvage regimens for SR-aGVHD in the past. However, clinical trials and an overall understanding of the molecular mechanisms of MSCs combined with basiliximab for SR-aGVHD are limited, especially in haploidentical haemopoietic stem cell transplantation (HID HSCT). METHODS The primary endpoint of this multicentre, randomized, controlled trial was the 4-week complete response (CR) rate of SR-aGVHD. A total of 130 patients with SR-aGVHD were assigned in a 1:1 randomization schedule to the MSC group (receiving basiliximab plus MSCs) or control group (receiving basiliximab alone) (NCT04738981). RESULTS Most enrolled patients (96.2%) received HID HSCT. The 4-week CR rate of SR-aGVHD in the MSC group was obviously better than that in the control group (83.1% vs. 55.4%, P = 0.001). However, for the overall response rates at week 4, the two groups were comparable. More patients in the control group used ≥ 6 doses of basiliximab (4.6% vs. 20%, P = 0.008). We collected blood samples from 19 consecutive patients and evaluated MSC-derived immunosuppressive cytokines, including HO1, GAL1, GAL9, TNFIA6, PGE2, PDL1, TGF-β and HGF. Compared to the levels before MSC infusion, the HO1 (P = 0.0072) and TGF-β (P = 0.0243) levels increased significantly 1 day after MSC infusion. At 7 days after MSC infusion, the levels of HO1, GAL1, TNFIA6 and TGF-β tended to increase; however, the differences were not statistically significant. Although the 52-week cumulative incidence of cGVHD in the MSC group was comparable to that in the control group, fewer patients in the MSC group developed cGVHD involving ≥3 organs (14.3% vs. 43.6%, P = 0.006). MSCs were well tolerated, no infusion-related adverse events (AEs) occurred and other AEs were also comparable between the two groups. However, patients with malignant haematological diseases in the MSC group had a higher 52-week disease-free survival rate than those in the control group (84.8% vs. 65.9%, P = 0.031). CONCLUSIONS For SR-aGVHD after allo-HSCT, especially HID HSCT, the combination of MSCs and basiliximab as the second-line therapy led to significantly better 4-week CR rates than basiliximab alone. The addition of MSCs not only did not increase toxicity but also provided a survival benefit.

Abstract
Therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome (t-MDS) is defined as a complication in patients with cancer following exposure to chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy and has an inferior outcome compared with de novo myelodysplastic syndrome (de novo MDS). This study aimed to estimate and compare the clinical outcomes of haploidentical stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) for t-MDS and de novo MDS. We retrospectively analyzed 96 patients with MDS who received haplo-HSCT between January 2015 and December 2021. Eleven patients with t-MDS and 85 patients with de novo MDS were matched using the case-pair method in a 1:8 ratio with the following pairing criteria: (1) sex, (2) age (± 5 years), (3) year of haplo-HSCT (± 2 years), and (4) blast cell counts (≥ 5% or not). The 3-year overall survival and disease-free survival after haplo-HSCT for t-MDS versus de novo MDS patients were 72.7% versus 75.1% (P = 0.99) and 54.5% versus 67.0% (P = 0.50), respectively. The 3-year cumulative incidence of relapse was 36.4% versus 15.5% (P = 0.08), respectively. In multivariate analysis, there was no difference in relapse between t-MDS and de novo MDS. The 3-year cumulative non-relapse mortality rates were 9.1% versus 17.6% (P = 0.45), respectively. This study confirmed the comparable clinical outcomes of haplo-HSCT on the prognosis of t-MDS and de novo MDS.

Abstract
In December 2022, the Omicron variant of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) became dominant in China due to its high infectivity and lower mortality rate. The risk of critical illness and mortality among patients with hematologic malignancies who contracted SARS-CoV-2 was particularly high. The aim of this study was to draft a consensus to facilitate effective treatments for these patients based on the type and severity of the disease. Following the outbreak of the novel coronavirus in China, a steering committee consisting of experienced hematologists was formed by the Specialized Committee of Oncology and Microecology of the Chinese Anti-Cancer Association. The expert group drafted a consensus on the management and intervention measures for different types of hematologic malignancies based on the clinical characteristics of the Omicron variant of the SARS-CoV-2 infection, along with relevant guidelines and literature. The expert group drafted independent recommendations on several important aspects based on the epidemiology of the Omicron variant in China and the unique vulnerability of patients with hematologic malignancies. These included prophylactic vaccinations for those with hematologic malignancies, the use of plasma from blood donors who recovered from the novel coronavirus infection, the establishment of negative pressure wards, the use of steady-state mobilization of peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cells, the provision of psychological support for patients and medical staff, and a focus on maintaining a healthy intestinal microecology.

Abstract
The AuCu3-type intermetallic compoundsReIn3(Re= a rare earth ion) with type-IV magnetic space groups are predicted to show topologically nontrivial electronic states. Here, we grow ErIn3single crystals, and study their magnetic properties and critical behaviors by means of the magnetic susceptibility, and magnetization isotherm measurements. Combining a detailed analysis of the magnetic susceptibility and isothermal magnetization, we find that this compound harbors a complicated magnetic phase diagram, and its magnetic moment arrangement appears not to simply follow the fashion as observed in the isostructural counterpart GdIn3(it adopts a conventional type-Cmagnetic structure that belongs to type-IV magnetic space groups). A careful study of the magnetic properties around the antiferromagnetic (AFM)-paramagnetic transition yields the critical exponentsβ= 0.309 (0.297),γ= 1.117 (1.038), andδ= 4.617 (4.454), indicating that the tricritical mean field model or the three-dimensional Ising model works for ErIn3's magnetic behaviors and the presence of a long-range AFM interaction therein. Besides, the exchange interaction distanceJ(r) ∼r-4.665as well confirms a long-range magnetic coupling in ErIn3. Our results offer the clues that the magnetic structure varies from one member ofReIn3family to another, and to confirm their electronic features in the AFM phases further experimental and theoretical studies are still desired.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The co-occurrence of cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) is increasingly prevalent and has been associated with an additive risk of dementia in older adults, but the extent to which this risk can be offset by a healthy lifestyle is unknown. We aimed to examine the associations of cardiometabolic multimorbidity and lifestyle with incident dementia and related brain structural changes. METHODS This prospective study extracted health and lifestyle data from 171 538 UK Biobank participants aged 60 years or older without dementia at baseline between 2006 and 2010 and followed up until July 2021, as well as brain structural data in a nested imaging subsample of 11 972 participants. Cardiometabolic multimorbidity was defined as the presence of two or more CMDs among type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, stroke, and hypertension. Lifestyle patterns were determined based on 7 modifiable lifestyle factors including smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, diet, sleep duration, sedentary behavior, and social contact. RESULTS Over a median follow-up of 12.3 years, 4479 (2.6%) participants developed dementia. The presence of CMDs was dose-dependently associated with an increased risk of dementia. Compared with participants with no CMDs and a favourable lifestyle, those with ≥ 3 CMDs and an unfavourable lifestyle had a five times greater risk of developing dementia (HR 5.33, 95% CI 4.26-6.66). A significant interaction was found between CMD status and lifestyle (Pinteraction=0.001). The absolute difference in incidence rates of dementia per 1000 person years comparing favourable versus unfavourable lifestyle was - 0.65 (95% CI - 1.02 to - 0.27) among participants with no CMDs and - 5.64 (- 8.11 to - 3.17) among participants with ≥ 3 CMDs, corresponding to a HR of 0.71 (0.58-0.88) and 0.42 (0.28-0.63), respectively. In the imaging subsample, a favourable lifestyle was associated with larger total brain, grey matter, and hippocampus volumes across CMD status. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that adherence to a healthy lifestyle might substantially attenuate dementia risk and adverse brain structural changes associated with cardiometabolic multimorbidity.

Abstract
According to the 2022 European LeukemiaNet, all acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases with FLT3-ITD mutations are now categorized as intermediate risk irrespective of the FLT3-ITD allelic ratio or concurrent presence of NPM1 mutation. However, whether other next-generation sequencing (NGS) comutation genes can add layers to FLT3-ITD and whether the poor outcomes of FLT3-ITD comutations can be overcome by haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) are unclear. This study aimed to investigate which comutations based on NGS at diagnosis affect the clinical prognosis of de novo AML patients with FLT3-ITD mutations and the effect of haplo-HSCT on comutations. We analyzed 95 de novo AML patients with FLT3-ITD mutations from January 2018 to August 2021 based on the NGS 99-gene platform. Forty-one other types of molecular mutations were detected. The most common cooccurring mutations were NPM1 (n = 43, 45.3%) and DNMT3A (n = 21, 22.1%). NPM1 mutation did not affect the clinical outcomes. Acute myeloid leukemia patients with FLT3-ITD and DNMT3A comutations had significantly worse 3-year Disease-free survival (DFS) (49.5% vs. 69.3%, P = 0.01) and Overall survival (OS) rates (61.1% vs. 69.8%, P = 0.54) than those without DNMT3A mutations, and survival was significantly more favorable after haplo-HSCT than that after chemotherapy (3-year DFS, 85.7% vs. 30.8%, P = 0.006; 3-year OS, 85.7% vs. 43.1%, p = 0.08). In multivariate analysis, DNMT3A mutation was a risk factor for DFS, while haplo-HSCT was a protective factor. In conclusion, DNMT3A mutation might be a poor prognostic factor in adult AML patients with FLT3-ITD mutations, and haplo-HSCT could overcome the poor prognosis of DNMT3A comutation.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Forpatients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC), the standard treatment is fluoropyrimidine (FU) -based neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NCRT) combined with curative surgery. The CAO/ARO/AIO-04 trial and FORWARC trial reported that the addition of oxaliplatin to FU -based NCRT contributed to improve pathologic complete response (pCR), nevertheless, increased the acute therapeutic toxicity. Some studies showed that vitamin C (VitC) had potential benefits on anti-tumor therapy and anti-inflammatory response. Therefore, we conducted this HCCSC R02 study to explore the efficacy and safety of adding a high-dose intravenous VitC to mFOLFOX6/XELOX -based NCRT in LARC. MATERIALS/METHODS HCCSCR02 study was designed as a prospective, single-center phase II trial, which including pts aged 18-75 years with stage II/III rectal adenocarcinoma, distance from anus ≤12cm. The enrollment criteria included: staged with MRI as cT3/cT4 or cN1/2, or mesorectal fascia involvement (MRF+), or difficult to preserve the anus. Patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase enzyme(G6PD) deficiency were excluded. Pelvic intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) was given in 45-50.4Gy/25-28 fractions. Concurrently, two cycles of chemotherapy (mFOLFOX6 or XELOX) were administered during IMRT, as well as intravenous VitC (24g) delivered daily after the end of each radiation therapy. Additional 2-3 cycles of mFOLFOX6 / XELOX were adopted between the completion of radiotherapy and surgery. The primary endpoint was pCR rate. The secondary endpoints included radiation-related toxicities, overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). This study is still recruiting. RESULTS From May 15, 2021 to Feb 8, 2023, 19 pts were recruited and finished all the scheduled NCRT, of which the proportion of cT4, cT3, cN2, cN1 were 31.6%, 63.2%, 52.6%, 36.8%, respectively. In addition, 10 pts (52.6%) were diagnosed as MRF+ initially, and 8 pts (42.1%) had a lower primary tumor(≤5cm) who were considered difficult for anal preservation before NCRT. All subjects enrolled were confirmed to be proficient mismatch repair (pMMR). As a result, 18 pts underwent a total mesorectal excision (TME) all with R0-resection, and 8 pts were evaluated as pCR (44.4%, 8/18, confidence interval: 0.246-0.663), 11 as major pathological response rate (MPR) (61.6%, 11/18), respectively. The anus preservation rate in patients with lower diseases was 87.5% (7/8). One case accepted a watch-and-wait strategy because of clinical complete response (cCR). Overall, grade 3 toxicities were observed in 4 pts, including 3 leucopenia (15.8%, 3/19), 2 neutropenia (10.5%, 2/19) and 1 diarrhea (5.3%, 1/19). No grade 4 adverse event was observed. CONCLUSION The addition of high-dose VitC to the mFOLFOX6/XELOX-based NCRT in LARC showed a promising pCR, well tolerance, particularly low rate of diarrhea, thus warrants further investigation. CLINICAL TRIAL INFORMATION NCT04801511.

Abstract
PrBi, a sister member of the rare-earth monopnictide family, is an excellent candidate for studying extreme magnetoresistance and nontrivial topological electronic states. In this study, we perform angular magnetoresistance measurements as well as bulk and surface band structure calculations on this compound. PrBi's magnetoresistance is revealed to be significantly angle-dependent and shows a fourfold symmetry as always observed in the nonmagnetic isostructural counterparts, including LaSb, LaBi, and LuBi. Its angular magnetoresistance can be reproduced well using the semiclassical two-band model. The deduced parameters suggest that PrBi hosts an elongated electron pocket with a mobility anisotropy of ∼3.13 and is slightly uncompensated in its carrier concentration. Our bulk and surface band structure calculations confirm the anisotropic electronic features. Moreover, we reveal that a nodal-line-shaped surface state appears at the X̄ point, and is associated with the quadratic dispersion along the -X̄ direction, and the linear type-I Dirac dispersion along the X̄-M̄ direction. Owing to the type-I Dirac dispersion feature, PrBi could serve as a promising material platform for studying many unexpected physical properties, such as the highly anisotropic transport and valley polarization of electrons.

Abstract
Bronchopleural fistula is an abnormal sinus tract that forms between the bronchus and the thoracic cavity. It is most commonly caused by thoracic surgery. Patients often have severe pulmonary and thoracic infections, which seriously affect the quality of life and survival rate. Most of these patients do not have a second operation chance, so the bronchopleural fistula becomes a thorny problem in the clinical practice. The clinical data of 9 patients with postoperative bronchopleural fistula admitted to Anhui Provincial Chest Hospital were reviewed and analyzed. We analyzed and summarized the clinical experience of successful occlusion with a ventricular septal defect(VSD) device, which provided a potentially effective treatment for postoperative bronchopleural fistula.

Abstract
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation is an important issue in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). The incidence of early CMV reactivation is notably high in HLA-mismatched HCT. However, the interactions between HLA mismatch and acute graft-versus-host disease (aGvHD), a time-dependent event, make it methodologically challenging to evaluate the independent impact on CMV reactivation of the two variables. We retrospectively analyzed 355 patients with acquired aplastic anemia who received related donor transplants using a unified antithymocyte globulin-based platform. Patients were divided into group 1 (6/6 HLA match), group 2 (1-2/6 HLA allelic mismatch), and group 3 (3/6 HLA allelic mismatch). The impact of covariates was analyzed through two models: (1) time-dependent Cox and (2) dynamic landmarking analysis. The time-dependent Cox model showed that the HLA mismatch of 3/6 alleles (hazard ratio (HR) =1.852, P = .004) and aGvHD (HR = 1.009, P = .019) were independent risk factors for CMV reactivation. With the dynamic landmarking analysis, a higher HLA disparity correlated to increased early CMV reactivation (HR = 1.606, P = .001) at all time points. Developing aGvHD following HCT was generally associated with a higher incidence of CMV reactivation (HR = 1.623, P = .013), though its impact decreased with successive later landmark time points. In conclusion, our data suggest that the higher HLA disparity and aGvHD increases susceptibility to early CMV reactivation. In particular, the dynamic landmarking analysis demonstrated the time-varying effect of aGvHD on CMV reactivation, and HLA mismatch showed a profound impact over time following HCT.

Abstract
As the COVID-19 variant Omicron surge in Beijing, China, a better understanding of risk factors for adverse outcomes may improve clinical management in patients with haematological malignancies (HM) diagnosed with COVID-19. The study sample includes 412 cases, mainly represented by acute leukaemia, chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML), plasma cell disorders and lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. COVID-19 pneumonia was observed in 10.4% (43/412) of patients, and severe/critical illness was observed in 5.3% (22/412). Among the 86 cases with advanced malignancies, 17.6% (12/86) of patients developed severe/critical COVID-19, which was significantly higher than reported in patients with stable malignancies (9/326, 2.70%, p < 0.001). Similarly, the advanced malignancy cohort had a higher mortality rate (9/86, 10.5% vs. 0/326, 0%, p < 0.001) and a poor 30-day overall survival (OS) compared with the stable malignancy cohort (74.2% vs. 100.0%, p < 0.0001). Overall, nine patients (2.2%) died. The primary cause of death was progressive HM in four patients and a combination of both COVID-19 and HM in five patients. In the multivariable analysis, over 65 years of age, comorbidities and advanced malignancy were correlated with severe/critical COVID-19 in HM patients. This study sheds light on the poor outcomes among COVID-19 HM patients with the leading cause of advanced malignancy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the variation of vaccine effectiveness against SARS-CoV-2 infection during the Delta wave according to frailty status among U.S. veterans. DESIGN Test-negative case-control study of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine effectiveness. SETTING Veterans Health Administration (VHA) medical centers. PARTICIPANTS Veterans 19 years and older who had at least one COVID-19/Flu like symptoms and received a SARS-CoV-2 PCR or antigen test at VHA medical centers between July 25 to September 30, 2021. INTERVENTION mRNA vaccination. MEASUREMENTS New SARS-CoV-2 infection. Vaccine effectiveness was defined as 1-odds of vaccination in cases/odds of vaccination in controls, where cases were patients who had a COVID-19 test and tested positive for SARS-CoV-2, and controls were those who tested negative. Frailty was measured using the VA frailty index, categorized as robust (0-<0.1), pre-frail (≥0.1-<0.21) and frail (≥0.21). RESULTS A total of 58,604 patients (age:58.9±17.0, median:61, IQR:45-72; 87.5%men; 68.1%white; 1.3%African American, 8.3%Hispanic) were included in the study. Of these, 27,733 (47.3%) were robust, 16,276 (27.8%) were prefrail, and 14,595 (24.9%) were frail. mRNA vaccine effectiveness against the Delta variant symptomatic infection was lower in patients with frailty, 62.8 %(95%CI:59.8-65.7), versus prefrail 73.9%(95%CI:72.0-75.7), and robust, 77.0 %(95%CI:75.7-78.3). CONCLUSIONS This test-negative case control study showed that mRNA vaccine effectiveness against infection declined in veterans with frailty. Frailty status is a factor to consider when designing, developing, and evaluating COVID-19 vaccines.

Abstract
Landslide prediction is critical for the early warning of a landslide occurrence. Existing stepwise landslide displacement prediction methods are mostly data-driven approaches. However, these models are vulnerable to overfitting, and the low-dimensional numerical features with high numerical volatility prevent them from precisely quantifying the rapid increase in daily displacement in the acceleration phase. Therefore, we propose a semantic information-driven stepwise landslide displacement prediction model comprising an identifier in the displacement phase and a predictor in the acceleration phase. First, the raw landslide monitoring data are converted into text-based semantic information and the semantic features are fused. Subsequently, based on the daily displacement and velocity, we propose a sliding window phase division algorithm to divide the stepwise landslide phase into stationary and acceleration phases. Finally, the landslide displacement phase is identified, and the displacement during the acceleration phase is predicted. The experimental results of the model on the Xinpu and Qingshi landslides in Chongqing, China, show that the proposed model exploits the derived semantic information to identify the landslide acceleration phase qualitatively, and predict the daily displacement of the acceleration phase quantitatively. The proposed model provides a valuable reference for the early warning of stepwise landslides.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the value of MRI diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in the white matter changes of short-term methamphetamine (MA) abstinence. Methods: The data of DTI, demographics features, general information of addiction and impulsivity scale eleven (BIS-11) of 55 short-term MA addicts who were from Changsha, Zhuzhou and Yueyang compulsory detoxification centers in Hunan province, including 40 males and 15 females, aged 14-45 (37.24±7.31) years old, and 52 healthy controls, including 40 males and 12 females aged 18-59 (40.3±9.1) years were collected prospectively from August 2017 to December 2018. The differences of DTI indicators between the two groups were compared by tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS), and then the correlation between the different indicators and the age of first MA use, time of MA use, daily dose used, BIS-11 score were performed. Results: There were significant differences in BIS total score(P<0.001), BIS motivational impulsivity(P<0.001) and BIS attentional impulsivity(P=0.003) between MA group and healthy control group in short-term withdrawal. And compared with the healthy control group, the fractional anisotropy (FA) (0.58±0.02 vs 0.56±0.02,0.77±0.02 vs 0.75±0.04,0.79±0.04 vs 0.76±0.06; all P<0.05), axial diffusivity (AD) (0.57±0.01 vs 0.56±0.02,P=0.001) and mean diffusivity (MD) (0.66±0.02 vs 0.65±0.02,0.52±0.07 vs 0.51±0.06; both P<0.05)values in the MA group were all increased (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the radial diffusivity (RD) value (P>0.05). The white matter areas with increased FA value were located in the knee and body of corpus callosum, bilateral anterior corona radiata and left superior corona radiata; the areas with increased AD value were located in the knee, body and pressure of corpus callosum, bilateral anterior limb of internal capsule, posterior limb of internal capsule, anterior, superior and posterior corona radiata, external capsule and superior longitudinal fasciculus; and the areas with increased MD value were mainly located in the right superior longitudinal fasciculus, anterior and posterior limb of internal capsule. The corpus callosum, where there was a difference in FA between the two groups, was positively correlated with the daily dose of MA (r=0.301, P=0.026). Conclusion: MA addicted individuals with short-term withdrawal have white matter edema and damage, and the degree of corpus callosum damage is positively correlated with the daily dose of MA,which is helpful to understand the pathophysiological process of white matter damage in the nervous system and the potential mechanism of neuropsychiatric symptoms in short-term withdrawal MA addicted individuals.

Abstract
Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplant (haplo-HSCT) provides an important alternative for children and adolescents with acquired severe aplastic anemia (SAA) lacking matched donors. To test whether pretransplant serum ferritin (SF) represents a candidate predictor for survival and a potential biomarker for graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) in pediatric haplo-HSCT, we retrospectively evaluated 147 eligible patients with SAA who underwent haplo-HSCT. The patients were divided into the low-SF group (< 1000 ng/mL) and the high-SF group (≥ 1000 ng/mL). We found that SF ≥1000 ng/mL independently increased the risk of grade II-IV aGvHD (HR = 2.596; 95% CI, 1.304-5.167, P = 0.007) and grade III-IV aGvHD (HR = 3.350; 95% CI, 1.162-9.658, P = 0.025). Similar probabilities of transplant-related mortality at 100 days were observed in the two groups (6.19 ± 2.45% vs 8.00 ± 3.84%, P = 0.168). The two-year overall survival (85.29 ± 3.89% vs 92.00% ± 3.84%, P = 0.746) and failure-free survival (83.23% ± 4.08% vs 83.37% ± 6.27%, P = 0.915) were comparable. GvHD-/failure-free survival were 60.06 ± 5.10% and 75.56 ± 6.87%, respectively (P = 0.056). In conclusion, elevated pretransplant SF level is associated with higher incidences of grade II-IV aGvHD and grade III-IV aGvHD. However, it is not associated with worse survival after haplo-HSCT for children and adolescent patients with SAA.

Abstract
Hepatitis-associated aplastic anemia (HAAA), a rare subtype of aplastic anemia (AA), is defined as bone marrow failure occurring after acute hepatitis. Severe HAAA requires immunosuppressive therapy (IST) or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) as lifesaving treatment. The outcomes of HAAA patients who underwent haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) have not been systematically evaluated. We retrospectively compared the characteristics of 15 patients with HAAA and 60 non-hepatitis-associated aplastic anemia (non-HAAA) patients, all 75 of whom underwent haplo-HSCT in our hospital between January 2006 and October 2021. The median ages of the patients were 18 years old (range, 3-36) for HAAA patients and 13 years (range, 2-45) for non-HAAA patients (p = 0.693). The median time for neutrophil engraftment was 14 days (range, 11-22) in the HAAA group and 12 days (range, 10-21) in the non-HAAA group (p = 0.363). At the time of analysis, 15 HAAA patients and 58 non-HAAA patients were alive, and their median follow-up times were 37 (range, 3-87) months and 31 (range, 2-110) months (p = 0.347), respectively. There were no significant differences in the three-year overall survival (OS) rates (100% vs. 96.7 ± 0.33%, P = 0.638) or liver event-free survival (LEFS) (80.0 ± 0.17% vs. 76.7 ± 0.19%, P = 0.747) between the two groups. Despite the small number of HAAA patients due to the rarity of the disease, these results, such as the similar incidence rates of 3-year OS and fewer liver events than expected, suggest that haplo-HSCT is a feasible treatment for HAAA a when there are no human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched donors available and has a low risk of transplant-related mortality and complications.

Abstract
Tigecycline is one of important antimicrobial agents for the treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria. However, the emergence and prevalence of plasmid-mediated tigecycline resistance gene tet(X4) are threatening human and animal health. Fitness cost elicited by resistance plasmids is a key factor affecting the maintenance and transmission of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the host. A comparative analysis of the fitness cost of different types of tet(X4)-positive plasmids is helpful to understand and predict the prevalence of dominant plasmids. In this study, we performed a large-scale analysis of fitness cost of tet(X4)-positive plasmids origin from clinical isolates. These plasmids were successfully electroporated into a reference strain Escherichia coli TOP10, and a series of transformants carrying the tet(X) gene were obtained. The effects of tet(X4)-positive plasmids on the growth rate, plasmid stability, relative fitness, biofilm formation, and virulence in a Galleria mellonella model were evaluated. Consequently, we found that these plasmids resulted in varying degrees of fitness cost on TOP10, including delayed bacterial growth and attenuated virulence. Out of these plasmids, tet(X4)-harboring IncFII plasmids showed the lowest fitness cost on the host. Furthermore, by means of experimental evolution in the presence of commonly used drugs in clinic, the fitness cost of tet(X4)-positive plasmids was substantially alleviated, accompanied by increased plasmid stability. Collectively, our data reveal the differential fitness cost caused by different types of tet(X4)-positive plasmids and suggest that the wide use of tetracycline antibiotics may promote the evolution of plasmids.

Abstract
BackgroundThe mechanism of inflammatory diseases is complicated and dysfunction of multiple immune cells is thought to be directly related to the pathogenesis. Targeting either JAK-STAT or BCR signaling has been proved solid clinical efficacy in multiple inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and multiple sclerosis (MS). And the combination of BTK and JAK inhibitors demonstrated synergistic effects for the treatment of inflammation models in pre-clinic. JAK3 expression is largely restricted to leukocytes and involves functions in JAK1/JAK3 heterodimer in signal transduction, it might be a more effective and safer target. Meanwhile, both BTK and JAK3 possess a cysteine residue in their active site and this feature makes it possible to design a dual inhibitor. SSD6453 is a highly selective and irreversible JAK3/BTK dual inhibitor which may have synergistic effects for the treatment of RA and other inflammatory diseases such as MS.ObjectivesTo develop a potent, oral, highly selective JAK3/BTK inhibitor for treatment of multiple inflammatory diseases.MethodsADP-GLO based biochemical assays were performed to determine the enzymatic inhibitory effect and selectivity for JAK family. The target engagement was evaluated by IgM induced pBTK and IL-2 induced pSTAT5 in human PBMCs. In vivo efficacy was evaluated by rat collagen-induced arthritic (CIA) model and mice experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) models induced by MOG1-125 or MOG35-55, respectively. BTK occupancy in spleens post last dose 24h and IL-2 induced pSTAT5 in whole blood post last dose 0.5h were used to evaluate targets inhibitions. Osteoclast was stained by IHC in pathological section of rat paws.ResultsIn biochemical assays, SSD6453 inhibited BTK and JAK3 with the IC50 values of 3.4 nM and 1.1 nM, respectively. Notably, SSD6453 displayed high selectivity against JAK1 (510 fold), JAK2 (75 fold) and TYK2 (525 fold). In cellular assays, SSD6453 inhibited anti-IgM induced pBTK and IL-2 induced pSTAT5 in human PBMCs with the IC50 values of 18.8 nM and 168.8 nM, respectively. SSD6453 demonstrated favorable PK properties in broad pre-clinical species. Single oral administration of SSD6453 in rat or mouse, resulted in dose-dependent inhibition of BTK and JAKs concurrently. In the rat CIA model in which disease development was accompanied by a robust T-cell and B-cell inflammation response to collagen, SSD6453 dose-dependently inhibited paw edema. And SSD6453 at 10mpk achieved complete (95%) BTK occupancy and JAK3 inhibition and superior efficacy in comparison of tofacitinib (JAK@10 mpk) or evobrutinib (BTK @30mpk) alone, suggesting that concurrent inhibition of JAK3 and BTK lead to synergistic anti-inflammation effects. In addition, ED-1+ osteoclast count decrease was observed in paws, suggesting the prevention of SSD6453 in joint destruction. In two EAE models either induced by MOG1-125 or MOG35-55, which represented T or B dominant inflammation model, respectively, SSD6453 robustly ameliorated disease in both two models. In comparison, BTK inhibitor is efficacious only in the MOG1-125 induced model.ConclusionSSD6453 is a novel and high selective BTK/JAK3 dual inhibitor, and demonstrated synergistic efficacy in multiple pre-clinic inflammation models. SSD6453 showed good pharmacokinetic characteristics and well-tolerant in multiple pre-clinical species, and is moving to IND in 2022.Disclosure of InterestsFeng Zhou Shareholder of: I own the shares of Simcere, Grant/research support from: The work is financially support by Simcere, Employee of: Simcere, Lei Jiang Shareholder of: I own the shares of Simcere, Grant/research support from: The work is financially supported by Simcere, Employee of: I am employee of Simcere, Yuxi Yan Grant/research support from: The work is financially supported by Simcere, Employee of: I am employee of Simcere, Wenqing Yang Shareholder of: I own the shares of Simcere, Grant/research support from: the work is financially supported by Simcere, Employee of: I am employee of Simcere, Feng Tang Shareholder of: I own the shares of Simcere, Grant/research support from: The work is financially supported by Simcere, Employee of: I am employee of simcere, Ping Chen Shareholder of: I own the shares of Simcere, Grant/research support from: The work is financially supported by Simcere, Employee of: I am employee of Simcere, Renhong Tang Shareholder of: I own the shares of Simcere, Grant/research support from: The work is financially supported by Simcere, Employee of: I am employee of Simcere.

Abstract
Secondary poor graft function (sPGF) increases the risk of life-threatening complications after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The incidence, clinical outcomes, and risk factors of sPGF have not been elucidated in haploidentical (haplo-) HSCT for acquired aplastic anemia (AA) patients. We retrospectively reviewed 423 consecutive AA patients who underwent haplo-HSCT between January 2006 and December 2020 and report a 3-year cumulative incidence of 4.62% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.92%-10.23%) of sPGF. While no primary PGF occurred. The median time to sPGF was 121 days (range 30-626 days) after transplantation. To clarify the risk factors for sPGF, 17 sPGF cases and 382 without PGF were further analyzed. Compared to patients without PGF, the 2-year overall survival was significantly poorer for sPGF patients (67.7% vs 90.8%, p =.002). Twelve sPGF patients were alive until the last follow-up, and 7 achieved transfusion independency. The multivariable analyses revealed that later neutrophil engraftment (OR 2.819, p=.049) and a history of refractory cytomegalovirus viremia (OR=7.038, p=.002) post-transplantation were associated with sPGF. There was weak evidence that a history of grade 3-4 acute graft-versus-host disease increased the risk of sPGF (p=.063). We advocated better post-transplantation strategies to balance the risk of immunosuppression and viral reactivation for haplo-HSCT in AA patients.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate immunohistochemical patterns of CXorf67 and H3K27me3 proteins in central nervous system germ cell tumors (GCTs) and to assess their values in both diagnosis and differential diagnosis. Methods: A total of 370 cases of central nervous system GCTs were collected from 2013 to 2020 at Huashan Hospital of Fudan University, Shanghai, China. The expression of CXorf67, H3K27me3 and commonly-used GCT markers including OCT4, PLAP, CD117, D2-40, and CD30 by immunohistochemistry (EnVision method) was examined in different subtypes of central nervous system GCTs. The sensitivity and specificity of each marker were compared by contingency table and area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results: Of the 370 cases there were 282 males and 88 females with a mean age of 19 years and a median age of 17 years (range, 2-57 years). Among the GCTs with germinoma, the proportions of male patients and the patients with GCT located in sellar region were both higher than those of GCTs without germinoma (P<0.05), respectively. CXorf67 was present in the nuclei of germinoma and normal germ cells, but not in other subtypes of GCT. H3K27me3 was negative in germinoma, but positive in the nuclei of surrounding normal cells and GCTs other than germinoma. In the 283 GCTs with germinoma components, the expression rate of CXorf67 was 90.5% (256/283), but no cases were positive for H3K27me3. There was also an inverse correlation between them (r2=-0.831, P<0.01). The expression rates of PLAP, OCT4, CD117 and D2-40 were 81.2% (231/283), 89.4% (253/283), 73.9% (209/283) and 88.3% (250/283), respectively. In 63 mixed GCTs with germinoma components, the expression rate of CXorf67 was 84.1% (53/63), while all cases were negative for H3K27me3. The expression rates of PLAP, OCT4, CD117 and D2-40 were 79.4% (50/63), 79.4% (50/63), 66.7% (42/63) and 87.3% (55/63), respectively. The 6 markers with largest area under ROC curve in ranking order were H3K27me3, CXorf67, D2-40, OCT4, PLAP and CD117 (P<0.05). Conclusions: CXorf67 and H3K27me3 have high sensitivity and high specificity in diagnosing germinoma. There is a significant inverse correlation between them. Therefore, they can both be used as new specific immunohistochemical markers for the diagnosis of GCTs.

Abstract
Some oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCCs) originate from preexisting oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs). Oral leukoplakia (OLK) is the most common and typical OPMD in the clinic, so treatment for it is essential to reduce OSCC incidence. Local chemotherapy is an option other than surgery considering the superficial site of OLK. However, there are no standardized drugs applied to OLK, and traditionally used chemotherapeutic drugs revealed limited efficacy for lack of adhesion. Hence, there is a growing demand to prepare new agents that combine mucoadhesion with an anti-OLK effect. Here, an isoguanosine-tannic acid (isoG-TA) supramolecular hydrogel via dynamic borate esters was successfully fabricated based on isoG and TA. Previously reported guanosine-TA (G-TA) hydrogel was also explored for an anti-OLK effect. Both gels not only exhibited ideal adhesive properties but also integrated anti-OLK activities in one system. In vitro cell viability indicated that isoG and TA inhibited the proliferation of dysplastic oral keratinocytes (DOKs). The in vivo OLK model evidence revealed that both gels showed potential to prevent OLK canceration. In addition, the probable anti-DOK mechanisms of isoG and TA were investigated. The results indicated that isoG could bind to adenosine kinase (ADK) and then affected the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway to inhibit DOK proliferation. TA could significantly and continuously reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS) in DOKs through its antioxidant effect. ROS plays an important role in the progression of cell cycle. We proved that the low level of ROS may inhibit DOK proliferation by inducing G0/G1 arrest in the cell cycle. Altogether, this study innovatively fabricated an isoG-TA hydrogel with ideal adhesion, and both isoG and TA showed in vitro inhibition of DOKs. Moreover, both isoG-TA and G-TA hydrogels possessed potential in delaying the malignant transformation of OLK, and the G-TA hydrogel showed a better statistical effect, providing an effective strategy for controlling OLK.

Abstract
Stoichiometric Cr2Se3 single crystals are particular layer-structured antiferromagnets, which possess a noncollinear spin configuration, weak ferromagnetic moments, moderate magnetoresistance (MR ∼14.3%), and poor metallic conductivity below the antiferromagnetic phase transition. Here, we report an interesting >16 000% colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) effect in Ti (1.5 atomic percent) lightly doped Cr2Se3 single crystals. Such a CMR is approximately 1143 times larger than that of the stoichiometric Cr2Se3 crystals and is rarely observed in layered antiferromagnets and is attributed to the frustrated spin configuration. Moreover, the Ti doping not only dramatically changes the electronic conductivity of the Cr2Se3 crystal from a bad metal to a semiconductor with a gap of ∼15 meV but also induces a change in the magnetic anisotropy of the Cr2Se3 crystal from strong out-of-plane to weak in-plane. Further, magnetotransport measurements reveal that the low-field MR scales with the square of the reduced magnetization, which is a signature of CMR materials. The layered Ti:Cr2Se3 with the CMR effect could be used as two-dimensional (2D) heterostructure building blocks to provide colossal negative MR in spintronic devices.

Abstract
Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is a rare but fatal central nervous system complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). However, factors that are predictive of early mortality in patients who develop ICH after undergoing allo-HSCT have not been systemically investigated. From January 2008 to June 2020, a total of 70 allo-HSCT patients with an ICH diagnosis formed the derivation cohort. Forty-one allo-HSCT patients with an ICH diagnosis were collected from 12 other medical centers during the same period, and they comprised the external validation cohort. These 2 cohorts were used to develop and validate a grading scale that enables the prediction of 30-day mortality from ICH in all-HSCT patients. Four predictors (lactate dehydrogenase level, albumin level, white blood cell count, and disease status) were retained in the multivariable logistic regression model, and a simplified grading scale (termed the LAWS score) was developed. The LAWS score was adequately calibrated (Hosmer-Lemeshow test, P > .05) in both cohorts. It had good discrimination power in both the derivation cohort (C-statistic, 0.859; 95% confidence interval, 0.776-0.945) and the external validation cohort (C-statistic, 0.795; 95% confidence interval, 0.645-0.945). The LAWS score is the first scoring system capable of predicting 30-day mortality from ICH in allo-HSCT patients. It showed good performance in identifying allo-HSCT patients at increased risk of early mortality after ICH diagnosis. We anticipate that it would help risk stratify allo-HSCT patients with ICH and facilitate future studies on developing individualized and novel interventions for patients within different LAWS risk groups.

Abstract
The emergence of plasmid-mediated tigecycline resistance gene tet(X4) poses a challenging threat to public health. Based on the analysis of tet(X4)-positive plasmids in the NCBI database, we found that the IncX1-type plasmid is one of the most common vectors for spreading tet(X4) gene, but the mechanisms by which these plasmids adapt to host bacteria and maintain the persistence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) remain unclear. Herein, we investigated the underlying mechanisms of how host bacteria modulate the fitness cost of IncX1 plasmids carrying tet(X4) gene. Interestingly, we found that the tet(X4)-bearing IncX1 plasmids encoding H-NS protein imposed low or no fitness cost in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae; instead, they partially promoted the virulence and biofilm formation in host bacteria. Regression analysis revealed that the expression of hns gene in plasmids was positively linked to the relative fitness of host bacteria. Furthermore, when pCE2::hns was introduced, the fitness of tet(X4)-positive IncX1 plasmid pRF55-1 without hns gene was significantly improved, indicating that hns mediates the improvement of fitness. Finally, we showed that the expression of hns gene is negatively correlated with the expression of tet(X4) gene, suggesting that the regulatory effect of H-NS on adaptability may be attributed to its inhibitory effect on the expression of ARGs. Together, our findings suggest the important role of plasmid-encoded H-NS protein in modulating the fitness of tet(X4)-bearing IncX1 plasmids, which shed new insight into the dissemination of tet(X4) gene in a biological environment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been reported that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) LIPCAR is involved in the progression of atherosclerosis. However, the mechanism underlying the effects of LIPCAR on regulating the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis remains unclear. METHODS Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR was performed to detect the levels of LIPCAR in the plasma of patients with atherosclerosis and in THP-1 macrophages. THP-1 cells were stimulated with oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) to induce foam cell formation. Furthermore, Transwell assay was carried out to evaluate the migration ability of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). RESULTS The expression of LIPCAR in the plasma of patients with atherosclerosis was significantly higher compared with that in healthy subjects, while LIPCAR knockdown notably reversed ox-LDL-induced THP-1 cell apoptosis. In addition, LIPCAR was upregulated in exosomes derived from THP-1 cells treated with ox-LDL (THP-1/ox-LDL Exo). Furthermore, THP-1/ox-LDL Exo significantly increased the expression levels of CDK2 and proliferative cell nuclear antigen in human VSMCs, while these effects were reversed following LIPCAR silencing. CONCLUSION The results of the present study suggested that exosomal lncRNA LIPCAR derived from ox-LDL modified THP-1 cells could promote the progression of atherosclerosis. Therefore, LIPCAR may be considered as a novel biomarker for the development of new strategies to treat atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Severe cardiotoxicity is a fatal complication during high-dose cyclophosphamide (Cy)-based conditioning in hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) for severe aplastic anemia (SAA). This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of a modified conditioning regimen in haploidentical HSCT (haplo-HSCT) for severe-cardiotoxic-risk SAA patients. This BuCylow Flu conditioning utilized busulfan (Bu, 3.2 mg/kg for 2 days), low-dose Cy (100 mg/kg), fludarabine (150 mg/m2 ), and rabbit antithymocyte globulin (rATG, 10 mg/kg). Compared to BuCy conditioning using high-dose Cy of 200 mg/kg, Bu of 3.2 mg/kg for 2 days, and rATG of 10 mg/kg, the incidence of severe cardiotoxicity of BuCylow Flu conditioning was significantly decreased (2.17% vs 12.80%, p = .032). The engraftment rates (100% for neutrophil and 84.44% for platelet) were favorable. The probabilities of 100-day transplant-related mortality were similar in the BuCylow Flu and the BuCy group (8.75% vs 10.53%, p = .671). Both 1-year overall survival (88.79% vs 84.66%, p = .357) and 1-year failure-free survival (84.78% vs 81.70%, p = .535) were comparable. The BuCylow Flu group had higher rates of cytomegalovirus and Epstein-Barr virus reactivation. In conclusion, the BuCylow Flu provided reduced severe cardiotoxicity, and achieved favorable engraftment and survival. Our results suggest BuCylow Flu conditioning can be a feasible alternative for haplo-HSCT recipients at risk of severe cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficiency of a recombinase-aided amplification (RAA) assay for the detection of Schistosoma japonicum infections in Oncomelania hupensis snails. METHODS A group test was employed. Fifty Oncomelania snails were collected as a detection sample. The detection samples without infected snails were designated as negative specimens, while the detection samples that contained different numbers of infected snails were designated as positive specimens. A total of 10 negative specimens, 10 positive specimens containing 1 infected snail, 20 positive specimens containing 2 infected snails and 10 positive specimens containing 3 infected snails were assigned. Following random grouping, 40 specimens were subject to the florescent RAA assay using a blind method. The miradium shedding method served as a gold standard, and the sensitivity, specificity, Youden's index and coincidence rate of the florescent RAA assay were estimated. In addition, 20 samples consisted of 5 negative specimens and 15 positive specimens with 1, 2 and 3 infected snails respectively were grouped randomly. The same specimens were detected using the crushing method and fluorescent RAA assay with the blind method in a paired-design manner. Then, the test results were compared and analyzed. RESULTS Florescent RAA assay detected 29 positives in the 30 specimens containing different numbers of infected snails, with a sensitivity of 96.67%, and 8 negatives in the 10 detection specimens without infected snails, with a specificity of 80.00%, showing a Youden's index of 0.77. The coincidence rate was 100% among 10 repeated assays for a detection specimen. In addition, there was no significant difference in the detection of infected snails between the florescent RAA assay and the crushing method (χ2 = 0, P > 0.05), and the actual coincidence rates of the florescent RAA assay and crushing method were 95.00% (19/20) and 90.00% (18/20) with the real results, respectively. CONCLUSION Fluorescent RAA assay has a favorable efficiency for the detection of S. japonicum infections in Oncomelania snails, which shows a potential in screening of S. japonicum-infected Oncomelania snails.

Abstract
To evaluate the clinical value of emergency endovascular embolization in the interventional treatment for oral hemorrhage caused by carcinoma, 32 patients with oral hemorrhage caused by carcinoma, who received emergency endovascular embolization due to unsatisfactory hemostatic effect of conventional conservative treatment in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2014 to December 2019, were included in this study and their clinical data, laboratory data and imaging information were retrospectively analyzed. There were 16 males and 16 females, aged (60.6±13.6) years (34-88 years). Technical successful rate of emergency endovascular embolization, immediate successful rate of controlling hemorrhage, blood pressure before and after operation, hemoglobin before and after operation, postoperative complications and recurrence rate of oral hemorrhage were statistically analyzed. Results showed that technical successful rate of operation and immediate successful rate of controlling oral hemorrhage are both 100% (32/32). Recurrent oral hemorrhage occurred in 4 patients (13%). The hemorrhagic shock symptoms of all patients were significantly improved after interventional therapy. After operation, local swelling happened in 34% (11/32) patients and intermittent local pain happened in 22% (7/32) within 24 hours; the swelling and the pain gradually disappeared from 2nd to 5th days. Mild complications of transient fever happened in 9% (3/32) patients and disappeared spontaneously in the short term. No serious complications such as blindness, cerebrovascular accident or central nervous system disturbance occurred in all patients after operations. During the whole follow-up period (1 to 12 months), a total of 8 patients died. The causes of death were progression and metastasis of carcinoma (n=4), heart failure (n=2), severe pneumonia (n=1) and respiratory failure caused by recurrent oral hemorrhage (n=1). Owing to the remarkable short-term curative effect, repeatable operation, low recurrence rate of oral hemorrhage and low incidence of complications, emergency endovascular embolization can be used in the clinical therapy and application of oral hemorrhage caused by carcinoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the mechanism underpinning the effect of Chaihu Shugan San ( CHSGS) on major depressive disorder (MDD). METHODS We searched the compound components of from seven herbal ingredients of CHSGS from TCMSP, SymMap, ETCM, NPASS databases, and the chemical structure of the compound from PubChem, and collected the compound targets from TCMSP and TargetNet databases, and MDD-related targets from DiseaseGene Network. We established protein-protein interaction in the STRING database. Through gene mapping, topology analysis and enrichment analysis, the core targets and pathways of CHSGS for MDD, and the involved biological processes (BP), cell components (CC), and molecular functions (MF) were predicted. RESULTS We collected a total of 1135 CHSGS compounds. After screening by ADME standards and the five rules of Ribinski, we obtained 99 different chemical components with different chemical structures, and related targets of 183 different CHSGS compounds. In the DiseaseGene Network, a total of 740 relevant targets for MDD were collected. Through gene mapping and topological analysis, 62 related targets of CHSGS for MDD, 24 targets with topological Chinese herbal medicine were obtained. Through enrichment analysis, 10 relevant pathways and 3 core pathways were obtained with the involvement of 127 BP, 27 CC, and 43 MF. CONCLUSION There are multiple targets and signaling pathways are involved in the action of CHSGS in the treatment of MDD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES As the US population ages, both cancer and multimorbidity become more common and pose challenges to the healthcare system. Limited studies have examined the association between multimorbidity and cancer prevalence in the US adult population. To help address this gap, we evaluated the associations between individual chronic conditions and all-site cancer, multimorbidity and all-site cancer, and multimorbidity and site-specific cancers. STUDY DESIGN This is a cross-sectional study. METHODS Data from 10,731 adults aged 20 years or older who participated in the 2013-2016 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were used in our study. Self-reported demographics, smoking status, sedentary behavior, body mass index, individual chronic conditions, multimorbidity status, cancer history, and cancer sites were assessed. RESULTS In our sample, the prevalence of having any type of cancer or multimorbidity was 9% (N = 861) and 38% (N = 4248), respectively. Respiratory conditions (multivariable-adjusted odds ratio [OR]: 1.3; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.1-1.6) and arthritis (multivariable-adjusted OR: 1.5; 95% CI: 1.2-1.8) were observed to be statistically significantly associated with having all-site cancer after adjusting for potential confounders. Having multimorbidity was also statistically significantly associated with having all-site cancer (multivariable-adjusted OR: 1.4; 95% CI: 1.2-1.7), cervical cancer (multivariable-adjusted OR: 2.6; 95% CI: 1.2-5.4), and bladder cancer (multivariable-adjusted OR: 2.8; 95% CI: 1.0-7.6). CONCLUSIONS Multimorbidity was associated with all-site cancer, cervical cancer, and bladder cancer. The present study provides new evidence of the potential relationships between multimorbidity and cancer. Future longitudinal studies are warranted to clarify the temporality and potential biological mechanisms of the associations between multimorbidity and cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the targets and mechanisms of action of Qingkailing injection (,QKL) in the treatment of cholestatic hepatitis. METHODS A network pharmacology method was implemented using drug and disease databases to target QKL and cholestasis hepatitis, respectively. The functional protein association network STRING database was used to construct a protein-protein interaction network using R language and the Bioconductor toolkit. The org.Hs.eg.db and clusterProfiler packages were used for gene ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analysis, which explored biological functions and pathways of potential targets. Targets were then visualized using Cytoscape 3.6.0 software. RESULTS We screened 121 compounds in QKL and identified 112 targets for the treatment of cholestatic hepatitis. QKL played a role in the treatment of cholestatic hepatitis through 305 biology process terms, 15 cellular component and 29 molecular function terms. The mechanism of QKL action was mainly related to tumor necrosis factor, mitogen-activated protein kinase, and PI3K-Akt signaling pathways. CONCLUSION The treatment of cholestatic hepatitis by QKL involved multiple targets, biological functions, and signaling pathways that are closely associated with the disease.

Abstract
Objective: To reveal the relationship between G6PD genotypes and the G6PD enzyme activities in dried blood spots of newborn screening. Methods: Simple random sampling procedure was used in this study. The fluorescence PCR melting curve analysis was performed to classify G6PD gene variants in 635 neonates coming from Guangzhou Newborn Screening Center during October 1 to 20, 2016, including 15 reported variants. Those samples consisted of 377 cases with screening positive results (261 from males and 116 from females) and 258 cases with screening negative results (32 from males and 226 from females). The cut-off value of G6PD was less than 2.6 U/g Hb in dry blood spots. Sanger sequencing for G6PD gene was used in 7 cases with screening negative results under simple random sampling. One-way ANOVA and least significant difference method (LSD) test were performed to compare the difference of G6PD activity among genotypes. Results: The top 6 frequency of G6PD gene variants were c.1388G>A(35.07%), c.1376G>T(32.13%), c.95A>G(12.72%), c.871G>A(8.32%), c.1024C>T(4.08%) and c.392G>T(2.28%), accounting for 94.62% of all variant alleles (580/613). A total of 253 males positive for enzyme activity were detected to have gene mutations. The positive rate of G6PD enzyme activity was 98.06%(253/258). The mean values of G6PD activities for c.1376G>T,c.95A>G and c.1388G>A were 0.85, 1.10 and 1.28 U/g Hb, respectively. There were significant differences among the three groups (F=28.7, P<0.01). A total of 105 females positive for enzyme activity were detected to have gene mutations. The positive rate of G6PD enzyme activity was 90.52%(105/116). The positive rate of G6PD enzyme activity was 26.95% among 256 females with one point mutation while it was 83.72% in females with multi-allele variants. The G6PD activity of heterozygous females was (2.9±0.8) U/g Hb, which was significant higher than that of females with multi-allele variants (1.5±1.0) U/g Hb (t=8.6,P<0.01). Conclusions: G6PD activities in dried blood spots were related to G6PD genotypes in males. They were also associated with the numbers of allele variants in females. Newborn screening for G6PD deficiency can be used to detect most of G6PD-deficient hemizygotes and female patients with multi-allele variants, which is helpful for preventing neonatal jaundice and medicine application.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), optimal management of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors is critical for primary prevention of CV disease.
Purpose
To describe the association of country income and patient socioeconomic factors with risk factor control in patients with T2D.
Methods
DISCOVER is a 37-country, prospective, observational study of 15,983 patients with T2D enrolled between January 2016 and December 2018 at initiation of 2nd-line glucose-lowering therapy and followed for 3 years. In patients without known CV disease with sub-optimally controlled risk factors at baseline, we examined achievement of risk factor control (HbA1c <7%, BP <140/90 mmHg, appropriate statin) at the 3 year follow-up. Countries were stratified by gross national income (GNI)/capita, per World Bank report. We explored variability across countries in risk factor control achievement using hierarchical logistic regression models and examined the association of country- and patient-level economic factors with risk factor control.
Results
Among 9,613 patients with T2D but without CV disease (mean age 57.2 years, 47.9% women), 83.1%, 37.5%, and 66.3% did not have optimal control of glucose, BP, and statins, respectively, at baseline. Of these, 40.8%, 55.5%, and 28.6% achieved optimal control at 3 years of follow-up. There was substantial variability in achievement of risk factor control across countries (Figure) but no association of country GNI/capita on achievement of risk factor control (Table). Insurance status, which differed substantially by GNI group, was strongly associated with glycemic control, with no insurance and public insurance associated with lower odds of patients achieving HbA1c <7%.
Conclusions
In a global cohort of patients with T2D, a substantial proportion do not achieve risk factor control even after 3 years of follow-up. The variability across countries in risk factor control is not explained by the GNI/capita of the country.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate and improve the performance of the newborn screening program for primary carnitine deficiency (PCD) based on tandem mass spectrometry and to investigate the incidence of PCD and molecular characteristics of SLC22A5 gene in Guangzhou. Methods: A total of 200 180 neonates born in Guangzhou from 2015 to 2019 were enrolled into the newborn screening program for PCD by tandem mass spectrometry at Guangzhou Newborn Screening Center. The positive results of screening for PCD was defined as free carnitine (C0) less than 10 μmol/L with decreased acylcarnitine species in dried blood spots of three to seven days after birth. Screen-positive newborns and their mothers were recalled for another blood spot sample. The diagnosis was confirmed based on decreased levels of C0 and acylcarnitine species in recalled blood spots and genetic analysis in SLC22A5 gene sequencing. The utility of using the sum of propionylcarnitine and palmitoylcarnitine (C3+C16) as a biomarker for acylcarnitine species in newborn screening was retrospectively evaluated. The levels of C0 and (C3+C16) at first screening were compared between newborns with PCD and newborns born to mothers with PCD by independent t test. The variant spectrum and known pathogenic variants carrier rate of SLC22A5 in 2 395 healthy children in Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center through whole exon sequencing were analyzed. Results: Among 200 180 neonates, 239 (0.12%) cases were screen-positive for PCD. A total of 37 patients including 15 newborns and 22 mothers had confirmed PCD. The incidence of PCD was 1/13 345 in newborns and 1/9 099 in mothers, respectively. The positive predictive value of this program was 15.5%. Taking cutoff values of C0<8.5 μmol/L or C0 8.5~9.9 μmol/L with (C3+C16)<2 μmol/L, the number of screen-positive cases would be reduced from 810 to 224 without additional false negative case, when compared with cutoff value C0<10 μmol/L only. Both levels of C0 and (C3+C16) at first screening were not significant difference between newborns with PCD and newborns born to mothers with PCD ((6.2±2.4) vs. (5.0±1.8) μmol/L, (1.4±0.4) vs. (1.2±0.5) μmol/L, t=3.826, 0.326; P=0.058, 0.572). Seven PCD mothers experienced moderate fatigue and dizziness in the morning. One of them presented with cardiomyopathy in pregnancy. Genetic analysis of the SLC22A5 gene showed that p.S467C, p.F17L, p.R254X were the three most common variants in newborns with PCD. In PCD mothers and healthy children, the p.S467C, p.F17L and R399W were the three most common whereas the severe variant p.R254X was rare. The population carrier rate for pathogenic variants was 1 in 65 and the estimated incidence of PCD was about 1/16 500. Conclusions: Newborn screening can detect PCD both in newborns and mothers. Adding a quantitative biomarker (C3+C16) <2 μmol/L into the newborn screening program can improve the PCD screen performance. The severe variant p.R253X was common in PCD newborns but rare in PCD mothers and healthy children, indicating that the current screening program maybe failed to detect all PCD newborns and under-estimated the incidence rate of PCD in Guangzhou.

Abstract
The salt overly sensitive (SOS) signal transduction pathway is one of the most highly studied salt tolerance pathways in plants. However, the molecular mechanism of the salt stress response in Tamarix hispida has remained largely unclear. In this study, five SOS genes (ThSOS1-ThSOS5) from T. hispida were cloned and characterized. The expression levels of most ThSOS genes significantly changed after NaCl, PEG6000, and abscisic acid (ABA) treatment in at least one organ. Notably, the expression of ThSOS3 was significantly downregulated after 6 h under salt stress. To further analyze ThSOS3 function, ThSOS3 overexpression and RNAi-mediated silencing were performed using a transient transformation system. Compared with controls, ThSOS3-overexpressing transgenic T. hispida plants exhibited greater reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging capability and antioxidant enzyme activity, lower malondialdehyde (MDA) and H2O2 levels, and lower electrolyte leakage rates under salt stress. Similar results were obtained for physiological parameters in transgenic Arabidopsis, including H2O2 and MDA accumulation, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD) activity, and electrolyte leakage. In addition, transgenic Arabidopsis plants overexpressing ThSOS3 displayed increased root growth and fresh weight gain under salt stress. Together, these data suggest that overexpression of ThSOS3 confers salt stress tolerance on plants by enhancing antioxidant enzyme activity, improving ROS-scavenging capability, and decreasing the MDA content and lipid peroxidation of cell membranes. These results suggest that ThSOS3 might play an important physiological role in salt tolerance in transgenic T. hispida plants. This study provides a foundation for further elucidation of salt tolerance mechanisms involving ThSOSs in T. hispida.

Abstract
This study evaluated the influence of the degree of donor bone marrow (BM) hyperplasia on patient clinical outcomes after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Twelve patients received allo-HSCT from hypoplastic BM donors between January 2010 and December 2017. Forty-eight patients whose donors demonstrated BM hyperplasia were selected using a propensity score matching method (1:4). Primary graft failure including poor graft function and graft rejection did not occur in two groups. In BM hypoplasia and hyperplasia groups, the cumulative incidence (CI) of neutrophil engraftment at day 28 (91.7% vs. 93.8%, P=0.75), platelet engraftment at day 150 (83.3% vs. 93.8%, P=0.48), the median time to myeloid engraftment (14 days vs. 14 days, P=0.85) and platelet engraftment (14 days vs. 14 days, P=0.85) were comparable. The 3-year progression-free survival, overall survival, CI of non-relapse mortality and relapse were 67.8% vs. 71.7% (P=0.98), 69.8% vs. 77.8% (P=0.69), 18.5% vs. 13.6% (P=0.66), and 10.2% vs. 10.4% (P=0.82), respectively. In multivariate analysis, donor BM hypoplasia did not affect patient clinical outcomes after allo-HSCT. If patients have no other suitable donor, a donor with BM hypoplasia can be used for patients receiving allo-HSCT if the donor Complete Blood Count and other examinations are normal.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the expression and interaction of VHL/HIF-α pathways including HIF-1α, HIF-2α as well as VHL in erythroid progenitor cells of bone marrow from chronic mountain sickness (CMS) patients. Methods: A total of 25 patients with CMS and 21 healthy controls were recruited for this study. The CD71(+)CD235a(+) cells in bone marrow mononuclear cells, marked as erythroid progenitor cells, were isolated using MACS separation technology. The expression levels of HIF-1α, HIF-2α and VHL in erythroid progenitor cells were detected by Western blotting and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. Results: The mRNA levels of HIF-2α were higher in erythroid progenitor cells of CMS than in healthy controls [1.68 (0.81, 2.22) vs 0.98 (0.60, 1.19), P<0.05], while HIF-1α and VHL mRNA levels were similar between the two groups (P>0.05). Spearman analyses indicated that HIF-2α mRNA was positively associated with hemoglobin (Hb) levels in the erythroid progenitor cells of CMS (ρ=0.504, P<0.05). Furthermore, the mRNA level of HIF-2α was correlated with the mRNA level of VHL in the erythroid progenitor cells of CMS (ρ=0.647, P<0.05).The protein levels of HIF-2α in the erythroid progenitor cells of CMS were higher than that of healthy controls [0.94(0.68, 3.30) vs 0.59(0.30, 0.88), P<0.05], but the protein levels of HIF-1α and VHL were similar between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions: The abnormal increased expression of HIF-2α in the erythroid progenitor cells of CMS patients leads to the abnormal expression of hypoxia sensitive genes downstream, participating in the occurrence and development of CMS.

Abstract
This study compared G-CSF/ATG and PTCy in myeloablative haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) for hematologic malignancies between January 2013 and March 2018 reporting to the Chinese Bone Marrow Transplantation Registry Group (CBMTRG). For each PTCy, G-CSF/ATG subjects (1:4) were selected using the nested case-pair method. In total, 220 patients including 176 in G-CSF/ATG group and 44 in PTCy group were analyzed. The incidences of 30-day neutrophil engraftment (88.6% vs. 96.6%, P=0.001), 90-day platelet engraftment (84.1% vs. 94.2%, P=0.04), the median time to neutrophil engraftment (17 days vs. 12 days, P=0.000) and platelet engraftment (22 days vs. 17 days, P=0.001) were significantly inferior in PTCy group. The incidences of grades 2-4 and 3-4 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), chronic GVHD and severe chronic GVHD were comparable. Among G-CSF/ATG and PTCy groups, the 3-year progression-free survival, overall survival, cumulative incidences of nonrelapse mortality and relapse was 74.3% vs. 61% (P=0.045), 78.3% vs. 65.2% (P=0.039), 12% vs. 27.3% (P=0.008), and 14.9% vs. 11.7% (P=0.61), respectively. G-CSF/ATG can achieve better engraftment, PFS and OS, and lower incidence of NRM compared to PTCy in myeloablative haplo-HSCT for hematologic malignancies.
