Abstract
Hypertension, a prevalent cardiovascular ailment globally, can precipitate numerous complications, notably hypertensive cardiomyopathy. Meteorin-like (METRNL) is demonstrated to possess potential protective properties on cardiovascular diseases. However, its specific role and underlying mechanism in hypertensive myocardial hypertrophy remain elusive. Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) served as hypertensive models to explore the effects of METRNL on hypertension and its induced myocardial hypertrophy. The research results indicate that, in contrast to Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats, SHRs exhibit significant symptoms of hypertension and myocardial hypertrophy, but cardiac-specific overexpression (OE) of METRNL can partially ameliorate these symptoms. In H9c2 cardiomyocytes, METRNL suppresses Ang II-induced autophagy by controlling the BRCA2/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. But when BRCA2 expression is knocked down, this effect will be suppressed. Collectively, METRNL emerges as a potential therapeutic target for hypertensive cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Topical intranasal medication is required following functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). The optimal particle size of transnasal nebulization aimed at the sinonasal cavities is not conclusive. The current study aims to evaluate the effect of particle size and various surgery scope of middle turbinectomy (MT) on post-full FESS drug delivery to the sinonasal cavities. METHODS Sinonasal reconstructions were performed from post-full FESS CT scans in 6 chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) patients. Four additional models representing alternative surgery scopes of MT were established from each post-FESS reconstruction for simulation data comparison. Airflow and particle deposition of nebulized delivery were simulated via computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and validated through in vitro experiments. The optimal particle sizes reaching a deposition of at least 75% of the maximum in the targeted regions were identified. RESULTS The drug deposition rate onto the targeted regions increased following MT, with the greatest deposition following posterior MT (P-MT). Droplets in the range of 18-26 μm reached a deposition of larger than 75% of the maximum onto the targeted regions. Drug delivery rate in the sinonasal cavities varied significantly among individuals and across different types of MT with varying surgical scopes. CONCLUSIONS This study is the first to investigate the effect of various surgery scope on drug delivery by transnasal nebulization to the sinonasal cavities. The findings strongly affirm the vast potential of transnasal nebulization as an effective post-FESS treatment option. Moreover, it emphasizes that the drug delivery process via atomizers to the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses is highly sensitive to the particle size.

Abstract
Salinity is a pivotal abiotic stress factor with far-reaching consequences on global crop growth, yield, and quality and which includes strawberries. R2R3-MYB transcription factors encompass a range of roles in plant development and responses to abiotic stress. In this study, we identified that strawberry transcription factor FaMYB63 exhibited a significant upregulation in its expression under salt stress conditions. An analysis using yeast assay demonstrated that FaMYB63 exhibited the ability to activate transcriptional activity. Compared with those in the wild-type (WT) plants, the seed germination rate, root length, contents of chlorophyll and proline, and antioxidant activities (SOD, CAT, and POD) were significantly higher in FaMYB63-overexpressing Arabidopsis plants exposed to salt stress. Conversely, the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) were considerably lower. Additionally, the FaMYB63-overexpressed Arabidopsis plants displayed a substantially improved capacity to scavenge active oxygen. Furthermore, the activation of stress-related genes by FaMYB63 bolstered the tolerance of transgenic Arabidopsis to salt stress. It was also established that FaMYB63 binds directly to the promoter of the salt overly sensitive gene SOS1, thereby activating its expression. These findings identified FaMYB63 as a possible and important regulator of salt stress tolerance in strawberries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This prospective clinical study aims to investigate the fluctuations of neurotransmitters in peripheral venous blood during the perioperative period and to identify independent predictors for postoperative neurogenic pulmonary oedema (NPE) in patients with medulla oblongata-involved tumours. MATERIALS AND METHODS Peripheral venous blood samples of the enroled patients at seven perioperative time points, as well as their medical records and radiologic data were collected. High-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was utilized to detect the concentrations of 39 neurotransmitters in these samples. The study applied univariate and multivariate generalized estimating equation (GEE) logistic regression analyses to explore independent predictors of postoperative NPE, and one-way repeated-measures ANOVA to compare the concentrations of the same neurotransmitter at different perioperative time points. RESULTS The study included 36 patients with medulla oblongata-involved tumours from January to December 2019, and found that 13.9% of them experienced postoperative NPE. The absence of intraoperative use of sevoflurane ( P =0.008), decreased concentrations of arginine ( P =0.026) and homoarginine ( P =0.030), and prolonged postoperative tracheal extubation ( P <0.001) were identified as independent risk factors for postoperative NPE in medulla oblongata-involved tumour patients. Pairwise comparison analysis revealed that the perioperative decreases in arginine and homoarginine concentrations mainly occurred within the postoperative 8 h. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates that NPE is not uncommon in patients with medulla oblongata-involved tumours. The absence of intraoperative use of sevoflurane, decreased concentrations of plasmatic arginine and homoarginine, and prolonged postoperative tracheal extubation are independent predictors of postoperative NPE. These two neurotransmitters' concentrations dropped mainly within the early postoperative hours and could serve as potential early warning indicators of postoperative NPE in clinical practice.

Abstract
Background Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is an immune-mediated inflammatory peripheral neuropathy. This study aimed to conduct a systematic analysis of the serum lipids profile in GBS. Methods We measured the serum lipids profile in 85 GBS patients and compared it with that of 85 healthy controls matched for age and sex. Additionally, we analyzed the correlation between lipids and the severity, subtypes, precursor infections, clinical outcomes, clinical symptoms, immunotherapy, and other laboratory markers of GBS. Results Compared to the healthy controls, GBS exhibited significantly elevated levels of Apolipoprotein B (APOB), Apolipoprotein C2 (APOC2), Apolipoprotein C3 (APOC3), Apolipoprotein E (APOE), triglycerides (TG), and residual cholesterol (RC). Conversely, Apolipoprotein A1 (APOA1), Apolipoprotein A2 (APOA2), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) were substantially lower in GBS. Severe GBS displayed noticeably higher levels of APOC3 and total cholesterol (TC) compared to those with mild disease. Regarding different clinical outcomes, readmitted GBS demonstrated higher RC expression than those who were not readmitted. Moreover, GBS who tested positive for neuro-virus antibody IGG in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) exhibited heightened expression of APOC3 in comparison to those who tested negative. GBS with cranial nerve damage showed significantly reduced expression of HDL and APOA1 than those without such damage. Additionally, GBS experiencing limb pain demonstrated markedly decreased HDL expression. Patients showed a significant reduction in TC after intravenous immunoglobulin therapy. We observed a significant positive correlation between lipids and inflammatory markers, including TNF-α, IL-1β, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), white blood cells, monocytes, and neutrophils in GBS. Notably, APOA1 exhibited a negative correlation with ESR. Furthermore, our findings suggest a potential association between lipids and the immune status of GBS. Conclusion The research demonstrated a strong connection between lipids and the severity, subtypes, clinical outcomes, precursor infections, clinical symptoms, immunotherapy, inflammation, and immune status of GBS. This implies that a low-fat diet or the use of lipid-lowering medications may potentially serve as an approach for managing GBS, offering a fresh viewpoint for clinical treatment of this condition.

Abstract
AIMS To evaluate the effect of antibiotic prophylaxis(AP) in the prognosis of Post-neurosurgical meningitis(PNM) patients. METHODS A cohort analysis was performed using the clinical database in Beijing Tiantan Hospital and Capital Medical University. Data were collected on patients with the diagnosis of PNM (n = 3931) during 2012.01 to 2022.04. The microbial distribution, types of AP, and 42 and 90 days survival analysis of AP patients were evaluated using probable statistical methods. Independent risk factors for mortality were established by constructing a logistic regression analysis. RESULT A total of 1,190 patients were included in this study, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Staphylococcus aureus occupied the highest proportion. Of them, 929 cases received AP, cefuroxime and ceftriaxone are the most frequent used antibiotics. In addition, We found that PNM patients without AP significantly increased the 42 days and 90 days all-cause mortality rates. The use of different levels of AP did not improve patient outcomes, and ICU admission and assisted mechanical ventilation (AMV) were identified as independent mortality risk factors for PNM patient received AP. CONCLUSIONS AP plays an important role in the prognosis of PNM patients and has a significant function in improving prognosis. The prevention of PNM with antibiotics prior to neurosurgery should be emphasized in clinical practice, and appropriate selection of antibiotics is necessary to prevent the occurrence of infection and inhibit the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

Abstract
Anthocyanins are important health-promoting flavonoid compounds that substantially contribute to fruit quality. Anthocyanin biosynthesis and most regulatory mechanisms are relatively well understood. However, the functions of anthocyanin transport genes in strawberry fruit remain unclear. In this study, a gene encoding an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) protein of type C, ABCC8, was isolated from strawberry fruits. qRT-PCR analysis demonstrated that the transcript levels of FvABCC8 were the highest and were strongly correlated with anthocyanin accumulation during strawberry fruit ripening. Transient overexpression and RNAi of FvABCC8 led to an increase and decrease in anthocyanin content in strawberry fruits, respectively. Moreover, the ABCC8 promoter was activated by MYB and bHLH transcription factors MYB10, bHLH33, and MYC1. Sucrose enhanced anthocyanin accumulation in FvABCC8-overexpressing Arabidopsis, particularly at higher concentrations. FvABCC8-overexpressing lines were less sensitive to ABA during seed germination and seedling development. These results suggest that strawberry vacuolar anthocyanin transport may be mediated by the ABCC transporter ABCC8, the expression of which may be regulated by transcription factors MYB10, bHLH33, and MYC1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To establish a comprehensive diagnostic model for neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSDs) based on laboratory indicators and clinical data. METHODS A retrospective method was used to query the medical records of patients with NMOSD from January 2019 to December 2021. At the same time, clinical data of other neurological diseases were also collected for comparison. Clinical data of the NMOSD group and non-NMOSD group were analyzed, and the diagnostic model was established based on these data. In addition, the model was evaluated and verified by the receiver operating curve. RESULTS A total of 73 patients with NMOSD were included, and the ratio of males to females was 1:3.06. The indicators that showed differences between the NMOSD group and non NMOSD group included neutrophils (P = 0.0438), PT (P = 0.0028), APTT (P < 0.0001), CK (P = 0.002), IBIL (P = 0.0181), DBIL (P < 0.0001), TG (P = 0.0078), TC (P = 0.0117), LDL-C (P = 0.0054), ApoA1 (P = 0.0123), ApoB (P = 0.0217), TPO antibody (P = 0.012), T3 (P = 0.0446), B lymphocyte subsets (P = 0.0437), urine sg (P = 0.0123), urine pH (P = 0.0462), anti-SS-A antibody (P = 0.0036), RO-52 (P = 0.0138), CSF simplex virus antibody I-IGG (P = 0.0103), anti-AQP4 antibody (P < 0.0001), and anti-MOG antibody (P = 0.0036). Logistic regression analysis showed that changes in ocular symptoms, anti-SSA antibody, anti-TPO antibody, B lymphocyte subsets, anti-AQP4 antibody, anti-MOG antibody, TG, LDL, ApoB, and APTT had a significant impact on diagnosis. The AUC of the combined analysis was 0.959. The AUC of the new ROC for AQP4- and MOG- antibody negative NMOSD was 0.862. CONCLUSIONS A diagnostic model was successfully established, which can play an important role in differential diagnosis of NMOSD.

Abstract
Background To investigate the factors associated with follow-up CSF cultures (FUCCs) in post-neurosurgical patients with gram-negative bacterial meningitis/encephalitis and the effect of FUCCs on treatment management and patient outcomes. Methods This single-centered retrospective cohort study enrolled post-neurosurgical patients with gram-negative bacterial meningitis/encephalitis at a tertiary-care university hospital between 2012 and 2022. The risk factors for 28-day mortality were evaluated using multivariate Cox analysis. FUCC-related risk factors were also analyzed. Results Among the 844 enrolled patients, 504 (59.7%) underwent FUCC, and FUCC was found to be associated with lower rates of both all-cause (hazard ratio (HR) 0.391; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.235-0.651; p<0.001) and attributable mortality (HR 0.463; 95% CI, 0.239-0.897; p=0.023) in Post-neurosurgical patients diagnosed with Gram-negative bacterial meningitis/encephalitis. Moreover, the results of the study underscored that patients with persistent gram-negative bacterial meningitis/encephalitis had a lower all-cause/attributable short-term survival rate according to 28-day mortality Kaplan-Meier analysis (P=0.001/0.006). Conclusion Performing FUCC has been demonstrated to lower mortality rates in Post-neurosurgical patients suffering from Gram-negative bacterial meningitis/encephalitis. The higher mortality rate observed in patients with persistent gram-negative bacterial meningitis/encephalitis suggests that performing FUCC is a crucial component of proper patient care and management, and is therefore recommended for use by clinicians as a standard practice. This finding underscores the significance of consistent implementation of FUCC in the management and prognosis of patients with Post-neurosurgical infections.

Abstract
Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a serious complication of diabetes. Elabela (ELA), a ligand of apelin receptor (APJ), was shown to promote angiogenesis and suppress inflammation. This study aimed to illustrate the role of ELA in DFU wound healing. A whole-skin defect model was constructed using db/m and db/db mice to observe the effects of ELA on wound healing. The function of ELA in endothelial cells cultured in high glucose medium was investigated. Administration of ELA in peri-wound area of db/db mice accelerated wound closure and reduced inflammatory infiltration. Indicators of DNA damage, elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and tail DNA amounts, were downregulated by ELA but compromised after TRAF1 overexpression. ELA-mediated inhibition of NF-κB phosphorylation improved cell migration and angiogenesis, which were blocked by APJ silencing. The findings imply that ELA suppresses TRAF1-mediated NF-κB signal activation, reducing ROS-related oxidative DNA damage and improving protection of endothelial function.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of Hintermann osteotomy (H-LCL) for flexible flatfoot. Methods: A follow-up study. Clinical data of 30 patients with flexible flatfoot treated with H-LCL operation from January 2020 to December 2021 in Sports Medical Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. There were 8 males and 22 females, with a mean age of (39.0±15.2) years. The mean time from symptom onset to the diagnosis[M(Q1,Q3)]was 24.0 (5.5, 102.0) months. The functional and imaging scores of the patients before and after the last follow-up were compared to evaluate the clinical efficacy of the operation. The functional scores included American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, visual analogue scale (VAS) of pain, pain interference (PI) and physical function (PF) index in Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS). And the imaging scores included Meary's angle, calcaneal pitch angle, calcaneal valgus angle and talonavicular coverage angle. Results: The mean operation time was (82.3±24.4) min, and the follow-up periods was (17.9±6.9) months. At the last follow-up, VAS of pain [M(Q1, Q3)] decreased from 5 (4, 6) to 2 (1, 2); PI decreased from 59.8±5.0 to 44.6±5.7; AOFAS increased from 65.2±10.0 to 85.8±3.3; PF increased from 50 (48.5,51.0) to 58.5 (54.0, 66.0); Meary's angle (antero-posterior image) decreased from 15.7° (10.1°, 29.2°) to 3.9° (2.6°, 5.3°); Meary's angle (lateral image) decreased from 13.5°±6.8° to 4.4°±2.6°; calcaneal pitch angle increased from 14.0°±3.3° to 18.6°±4.2°; calcaneal valgus angle decreased from 12.6°±7.3° to 4.3°±2.5°; and talonavicular coverage angle decreased from 20.9°±10.7° to 7.7°±5.2°. The up-mentioned parameters were all improved statistically significant at the last follow-up when compared with those before the operation (all P<0.05). Conclusion: H-LCL brings a significant improvement of clinical outcome scores and good radiological correction of flatfoot deformities in correcting flexible flatfoot, it conforms to the anatomical characteristics of the subtalar joint.

Abstract
Coronaviruses are widespread in nature and can infect mammals and poultry, making them a public health concern. Globally, prevention and control of emerging and re-emerging animal coronaviruses is a great challenge. The mechanisms of virus-mediated immune responses have important implications for research on virus prevention and control. The antigenic epitope is a chemical group capable of stimulating the production of antibodies or sensitized lymphocytes, playing an important role in antiviral immune responses. Thus, it can shed light on the development of diagnostic methods and novel vaccines. Here, we have reviewed advances in animal coronavirus antigenic epitope research, aiming to provide a reference for the prevention and control of animal and human coronaviruses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, no tests can definitively diagnose and distinguish neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) from multiple sclerosis (MS). METHODS Initially, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteomics were employed to uncover the novel biomarkers that differentiate NMOSD from MS into cohorts of 10 MS and 10 NMOSD patients. Subsequently, screening biomarkers were validated using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method and CSF and serum samples from 20 MS patients, 20 NMOSD patients, 20 non-inflammatory neurological controls, and 20 healthy controls. RESULTS In study cohort, insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7) and lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein 2 (LAMP2) were screened. In validation cohort, serum and CSF IGFBP7 not only exhibited higher levels in MS and NMOSD patients than controls, but also had greatest area under the curve (AUC, above or equal to 0.8) in MS and NMOSD diagnoses. Serum IGFBP7 (0.945) and CSF IGFBP7 (0.890) also had the greatest AUCs for predicting MS progression, while serum LAMP2 had a moderate curve (0.720). CONCLUSIONS IGFBP7 was superior in diagnosing MS and NMOSD, and IGFBP7 and serum LAMP2 performed exceptionally well in predicting the MS progression. These results offered reasons for further investigations into the functions of IGFBP7 and LAMP2 in MS and NMOSD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple preclinical studies have reported a beneficial effect of extracellular vesicles (EVs), especially mesenchymal stem cells derived EVs (MSC-EVs), in the treatment of sepsis. However, the therapeutic effect of EVs is still not universally recognized. Therefore, we conducted this meta-analysis by summarizing data from all published studies that met certain criteria to systematically review the association between EVs treatment and mortality in animal models of sepsis. METHODS Systematic retrieval of all studies in PubMed, Cochrane and Web of Science that reported the effects of EVs on sepsis models up to September 2022. The primary outcome was animal mortality. After screening the eligible articles according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, the inverse variance method of fixed effect model was used to calculate the joint odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Meta-analysis was performed by RevMan version 5.4. RESULTS In total, 17 studies met the inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis of those studies showed that EVs treatment was associated with reduced mortality in animal models of sepsis (OR 0.17 95% CI: 0.11,0.26, P < 0.001). Further subgroup analysis showed that the mode of sepsis induction, the source, dose, time and method of injection, and the species and gender of mice had no significant effect on the therapeutic effect of EVs. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis showed that MSC-EVs treatment may be associated with lower mortality in animal models of sepsis. Subsequent preclinical studies will need to address the standardization of dose, source, and timing of EVs to provide comparable data. In addition, the effectiveness of EVs in treating sepsis must be studied in large animal studies to provide important clues for human clinical trials.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze correlation of occupational hydrogen fluoride exposure to low doses of bone metabolism index through occupational epidemiological investigation and benchmark dose calculation. Methods: In May 2021, using cluster sampling method, 237 workers exposed to hydrogen fluoride in a company were selected as the contact group, and 83 workers not exposed to hydrogen fluoride in an electronics production company were selected as the control group. The external exposure dose and urinary fluoride concentration, blood and urine biochemical indicators of the workers was measured.The relationship between external dose and internal dose of hydrogen fluoride was analyzed. The external dose, urinary fluoride was used as exposure biomarkers, while serum osteocalcin (BGP), serum alkaline phosphatase (AKP) and urinary hydroxyproline (HYP) were used as effect biomarkers for bone metabolism of hydrogen fluoride exposure. The benchmark dose calculation software (BMDS1.3.2) was used to calculate benchmark dose (BMD) . Results: Urine fluoride concentration in the contact group was correlated with creatinine-adjusted urine fluoride concentration (r=0.69, P=0.001). There was no significant correlation between the external dose of hydrogen fluoride and urine fluoride in the contact group (r=0.03, P=0.132). The concentrations of urine fluoride in the contact group and the control group were (0.81±0.61) and (0.45±0.14) mg/L, respectively, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (t=5.01, P=0.025). Using BGP, AKP and HYP as effect indexes, the urinary BMDL-05 values were 1.28, 1.47 and 1.08 mg/L, respectively. Conclusion: Urinary fluoride can sensitively reflect the changes in the effect indexes of biochemical indexes of bone metabolism. BGP and HYP can be used as early sensitive effect indexes of occupational hydrogen fluoride exposure.

Abstract
Heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) is an unique member of the heat shock protein family, being involved in parasite infections. To cope with harsh environments where parasites live, HSP60s are indispensable and involved in a variety of biological processes. HSP60s have relative low similarity among parasites, but their ATPase /Mg2+ active sites are highly conserved. The interactions of HSP60s with signaling pathway regulators in immune cells suggest a crucial role in immune responses, rendering them a potential therapeutic target. This paper reviews the current understandings of HSP60s in parasitic helminths in aspects of molecular characteristics, immunoregulatory responses and HSP60-based therapeutics.

Abstract
RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) is an epigenetic process that directs silencing to specific genomic regions and loci. The biological functions of RdDM are not well studied in horticultural plants. Here, we isolated the ethyl methane-sulfonate-induced mutant reduced organ size (ros) producing small leaves, flowers, and fruits in woodland strawberry (Fragaria vesca) due to reduced cell numbers compared with that in the wild-type (WT). The candidate mutation causes a premature stop codon in FvH4_6g28780, which shares high similarity to Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) Factor of DNA Methylation1 (FDM1) encoding an RdDM pathway component and was named FveFDM1. Consistently, the fvefdm1CR mutants generated by CRISPR/Cas9 also produced smaller organs. Overexpressing FveFDM1 in an Arabidopsis fdm1-1 fdm2-1 double mutant restored DNA methylation at the RdDM target loci. FveFDM1 acts in a protein complex with its homolog Involved in De Novo 2 (FveIDN2). Furthermore, whole-genome bisulfite sequencing revealed that DNA methylation, especially in the CHH context, was remarkably reduced throughout the genome in fvefdm1. Common and specific differentially expressed genes were identified in different tissues of fvefdm1 compared to in WT tissues. DNA methylation and expression levels of several gibberellic acid (GA) biosynthesis and cell cycle genes were validated. Moreover, the contents of GA and auxin were substantially reduced in the young leaves of fvefdm1 compared to in the WT. However, exogenous application of GA and auxin could not recover the organ size of fvefdm1. In addition, expression levels of FveFDM1, FveIDN2, Nuclear RNA Polymerase D1 (FveNRPD1), Domains Rearranged Methylase 2 (FveDRM2), and cell cycle genes were greatly induced by GA treatment. Overall, our work demonstrated the critical roles of FveFDM1 in plant growth and development via RdDM-mediated DNA methylation in horticultural crops.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Selenium has been shown to influence the pathological processes and physiological functions of thyroid. Although growing evidence has shown that selenium can improve the treatment of Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), there is a need to evaluate the association between dietary selenium intake and HT in a large cross-sectional study. This study explored the association between dietary selenium intake and HT based on the National Health reand Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database (2007-2012). METHODS A total of 8756 of 30,442 participants were included in the study. Dietary selenium intake was the independent variable, while HT was the dependent variable. In addition, the relative importance of the selected variables was determined using the XGBoost model. A smooth curve was constructed based on the fully adjusted model to investigate the potential linear relationship between dietary selenium intake and HT. Smooth curves were also constructed to explore the linear/non-linear relationship between dietary selenium intake and thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb)/ thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb). RESULTS The mean age of the enrolled participants was 44.35 years (± 20.92). The risk of HT was significantly reduced by a 35% per-unit increase in dietary selenium intake after fully adjusting for covariates according to the model (log2-transformed data; OR 0.65; 95% CI 0.51, 0.83). The XGBoost model revealed that dietary selenium intake was the most important variable associated with Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Dietary selenium intake (Log2-transformed) was negatively correlated with TPOAb levels [- 16.42 (- 22.18, - 10.65), P < 0.0001], while a non-linear relationship was observed between dietary selenium intake and TgAb with an inflection point of 6.58 (95.67 μg, Log2-transformed). CONCLUSION Dietary selenium intake is independently and inversely associated with HT risk. Moreover, dietary selenium intake is negatively correlated with TPOAb levels and non-linearly correlated with TGAb levels. Therefore, dietary selenium intake may be a safe and low-cost alternative for the prevention and treatment of HT.

Abstract
The acceleration of the urbanization process brings about the expansion of urban land use, while changes in land-use transformation affect the urban habitat quality, and land-use change brings a threat to regional sustainable development. Against such a backdrop, the assessment of land use on the habitat quality and the relationship between the intensity of human activities is becoming a hot spot in terms of the current land use coordinated with habitat quality. Based on the land-use data of Guiyang in 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015 and 2020, the spatial-temporal evolution characteristics of habitat quality in the study area, combined with the spatial correlation between human activity intensity and habitat quality, were hereby analyzed using the InVEST model. The impact of human activity intensity on habitat quality was correspondingly analyzed. The results show that: (1) From 2000 to 2020, the habitat quality level in Guiyang remained stable without drastic changes, but the changes showed hierarchical distribution and were scattered, mainly reflected in the urban expansion areas of the urban-rural fringe and the key areas of industrial development, and the ecological environment quality fluctuated in a small range. (2) From 2000 to 2020, the intensity of human activities in Guiyang was mainly affected by the relatively concentrated distribution, featuring obvious and significant changes. From 2010 to 2015, the high-impact area surrounded the Guanshan Lake New Area, and the regional habitat quality presented a downward trend. In 2020, the high-impact area of the main urban area and the key industrial development zone was expected to be formed, while the low-impact area was still distributed in forest areas with complex natural conditions. (3) From 2000 to 2020, there was a significant positive correlation between human activity intensity and habitat quality in Guiyang, and such a spatial correlation was weak from 2000 to 2005. The period from 2015 to 2020 witnessed the rapid development of urban construction in Guiyang, human construction activities continue to affect the urban habitat quality. The results show that the intensity of human activities on the promoting function of land use, and the dependencies between them should be considered at the same time, and that explorations on the influence of human activities on land-use intensity and habitat quality of space link are crucial to improving the efficiency of urban land use and ecological environment protection, as well as the coordination between land use and the sustainability of urban development.

Abstract
Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of post-neurosurgical meningitis (PNM) patients infected with nonfermenting Gram-negative bacilli (NFGNB) and to evaluate the related mortality risk factors. Methods A cohort analysis of PNM patients infected with NFGNB in Beijing Tiantan Hospital and Capital Medical University from 2012.1 to 2020.12. The microbial distribution, antimicrobial sensitivity and genotypes were tested, and potential mortality risk factors were evaluated using Mann–Whitney U or chi-squared tests. Independent risk factors for mortality were established by constructing a logistic model. Results A total of 2940 PNM patients were enrolled in this study, of whom 207 (17.1%) were infected with NFGNB. Among these patients, 29 died of NFGNB meningitis, with an overall mortality rate of 14.0%. The top three NFGNBs were Acinetobacter baumannii (105 cases, 50.7%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (29 cases, 14.0%) and Acinetobacter lwoffii (20 cases, 9.7%). Nomogram analysis revealed that hypertension (OR 4.551, 95% CI: 1.464–14.154, P = 0.009), external ventricular drainage (EVD) (OR 3.944, 95% CI: 1.286–12.095, P = 0.016), and assisted mechanical ventilator (AMV) (OR 6.192, 95% CI: 1.737–22.081, P = 0.005) were independent risk factors for mortality. In addition, antibiotic prophylaxis was shown to play a vital role in NFGNB-induced PNM therapy. Conclusion PNM patients infected with NFGNB have a high mortality rate. Hypertension, EVD and AMV were independent mortality risk factors, and clinical attention should be paid to their prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical epidemiological characteristics including composition of pathogens , clinical characteristics, and disease prognosis acute bacterial meningitis (ABM) in Chinese children. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical and laboratory data of 1 610 children <15 years of age with ABM in 33 tertiary hospitals in China from January 2019 to December 2020. Patients were divided into different groups according to age,<28 days group, 28 days to <3 months group, 3 months to <1 year group, 1-<5 years of age group, 5-<15 years of age group; etiology confirmed group and clinically diagnosed group according to etiology diagnosis. Non-numeric variables were analyzed with the Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test, while non-normal distrituction numeric variables were compared with nonparametric test. Results: Among 1 610 children with ABM, 955 were male and 650 were female (5 cases were not provided with gender information), and the age of onset was 1.5 (0.5, 5.5) months. There were 588 cases age from <28 days, 462 cases age from 28 days to <3 months, 302 cases age from 3 months to <1 year of age group, 156 cases in the 1-<5 years of age and 101 cases in the 5-<15 years of age. The detection rates were 38.8% (95/245) and 31.5% (70/222) of Escherichia coli and 27.8% (68/245) and 35.1% (78/222) of Streptococcus agalactiae in infants younger than 28 days of age and 28 days to 3 months of age; the detection rates of Streptococcus pneumonia, Escherichia coli, and Streptococcus agalactiae were 34.3% (61/178), 14.0% (25/178) and 13.5% (24/178) in the 3 months of age to <1 year of age group; the dominant pathogens were Streptococcus pneumoniae and the detection rate were 67.9% (74/109) and 44.4% (16/36) in the 1-<5 years of age and 5-<15 years of age . There were 9.7% (19/195) strains of Escherichia coli producing ultra-broad-spectrum β-lactamases. The positive rates of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) culture and blood culture were 32.2% (515/1 598) and 25.0% (400/1 598), while 38.2% (126/330)and 25.3% (21/83) in CSF metagenomics next generation sequencing and Streptococcus pneumoniae antigen detection. There were 4.3% (32/790) cases of which CSF white blood cell counts were normal in etiology confirmed group. Among 1 610 children with ABM, main intracranial imaging complications were subdural effusion and (or) empyema in 349 cases (21.7%), hydrocephalus in 233 cases (14.5%), brain abscess in 178 cases (11.1%), and other cerebrovascular diseases, including encephalomalacia, cerebral infarction, and encephalatrophy, in 174 cases (10.8%). Among the 166 cases (10.3%) with unfavorable outcome, 32 cases (2.0%) died among whom 24 cases died before 1 year of age, and 37 cases (2.3%) had recurrence among whom 25 cases had recurrence within 3 weeks. The incidences of subdural effusion and (or) empyema, brain abscess and ependymitis in the etiology confirmed group were significantly higher than those in the clinically diagnosed group (26.2% (207/790) vs. 17.3% (142/820), 13.0% (103/790) vs. 9.1% (75/820), 4.6% (36/790) vs. 2.7% (22/820), χ2=18.71, 6.20, 4.07, all P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the unfavorable outcomes, mortility, and recurrence between these 2 groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions: The onset age of ABM in children is usually within 1 year of age, especially <3 months. The common pathogens in infants <3 months of age are Escherichia coli and Streptococcus agalactiae, and the dominant pathogen in infant ≥3 months is Streptococcus pneumoniae. Subdural effusion and (or) empyema and hydrocephalus are common complications. ABM should not be excluded even if CSF white blood cell counts is within normal range. Standardized bacteriological examination should be paid more attention to increase the pathogenic detection rate. Non-culture CSF detection methods may facilitate the pathogenic diagnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Establishment of reference intervals (RIs) for different biomarkers is essential for clinical monitoring. The purpose of this study was to establish laboratory RIs of SARS-CoV-2 IgM and IgG for elder population. MATERIALS Performance verification was conducted with reference to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines, including linearity, imprecision, and allowable dilution ratio. Based on CLSI C28-A3 document, a total of 3,734 serum samples were collected, and 3,733 serum samples were used for the establishment of RIs for SARS-CoV-2 IgM and IgG. The subjects were grouped by gender and age. The age groups were as follows: 60 - 69 years, 70 - 79 years, 80 - 89 years, and 90 - 101 years. The RI was defined by nonparametric 95th percentile intervals. RESULTS Percentage deviation of all the seven dilutions were all less than 12.5% during linearity evaluation. The inter-assay and intra-assay imprecision were all less than 5%. There is no significant difference between different gender and age groups for IgM (p = 0.0818, p = 0.7094), and there is significant difference between different gender and age groups for IgG (p = 0.0011, p = 0.0013). Harris-Boyd's test did not indicate partitioning for IgM and IgG. Cutoff values of RI for SARS-CoV-2 IgM and IgG were defined as 0.1523 S/CO and 0.2663 S/CO, respectively. CONCLUSIONS RIs of SRAR-CoV-2 IgM and IgG were established for elder population, which can play an important role in the prevention and control of the epidemic.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of the modified Latarjet procedure in the treatment of recurrent anterior subluxation of the shoulder by "coaxial co-arc" reconstruction of the glenoid cavity. Methods: The clinical data of 103 cases (106 shoulders) of recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of the Army Military Medical University from January 2005 to December 2020 were retrospectively studied. Out of these cases, 84 were males and 19 were females; 31 with left-sided injuries while 75 with right-sided injuries, with a mean age of (29.4±11.5) years (16-61 years). The preoperative anterior fear test was positive, and a modified Latarjet procedure was used to reconstruct the shoulder glenoid defect through a "coaxial co-arc". The Rowe score, simple shoulder test (SST) score, and Visual analogue scale (VAS) score of pain were used to assess the shoulder's function. Parameters such as the postoperative shoulder recurrent dislocation rate, shoulder body external rotation angle, and subscapularis muscle strength changes were recorded postoperatively. Moreover, radiographs and CT scans were used to check for the incidence of osteoarthritis (Samson-Prieto score). Results: After a mean follow-up of 9.0 years (1 to 16 years), bony healing occurred 3 to 6 months postoperatively. The Rowe score improved from 40.4±6.5 preoperatively to 93.2±2.5 (P<0.001), the SST score improved from 5.2±1.3 preoperatively to 10.1±1.5 (P<0.001), and the VAS pain score decreased from 3.5±1.9 preoperatively to 1.1±1.2 (P<0.001) at the final follow-up. The angle of lateral external rotation of the shoulder joint was 58.8°±15.6° preoperatively and 57.6°±14.5° postoperatively with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the measurement of subscapularis muscle strength between the healthy side and the affected side (P>0.05). In 89.6% of patients after surgery, coaxial co-arc reconstruction of the shoulder glenoid was obtained, and the shoulder glenoid defect and postoperative inclusion angle were significantly improved compared with those before surgery (P<0.001). Postoperatively, new-onset osteoarthritis developed in 7 cases (7/98), arthritis progressed in 2 cases (2/8), incisional healing was poor in 2 cases (2/98), and revision surgery was performed in 2 cases (2/98) due to bone mass detachment. Conclusion: Coracoid osteotomy and concentric coaxial reconstruction of the glenoid cavity elicits adequate good clinical efficacy for cases of recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation, with low recurrence rates, low revision rates and low incidence of osteoarthritis.

Abstract
BackgroundGuillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) is the most common severe acute paralytic neuropathy, with a mortality rate of 5% and permanent sequelae rate of 10%. Currently, the cause of GBS remains unclear. Therefore, we sought to determine potential predictors for GBS and its severity.MethodsA case–control study was performed at Tiantan Hospital in Beijing from January 2017 to December 2021. Laboratory and clinical characteristics were assessed in recruited GBS patients and healthy control individuals (matched by sex and age). The potential risk factors for GBS and severe GBS were assessed using a logistic regression analysis. The mRNA levels of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) in GBS patients and control PBMCs were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR. THP-1 cells were costimulated with LPS and free cholesterol to demonstrate the effect of free cholesterol on monocyte activation.ResultsA total of 147 GBS patients and 153 healthy individuals were included in the study. Logistic regression analyses showed that preceding infection, alcohol consumption, remnant cholesterol, homocysteine and the dyslipidemia index were correlated with a higher risk of GBS. In contrast, increased HDL cholesterol was correlated with a lower risk of GBS. Moreover, remnant cholesterol and the dyslipidemia index were significantly correlated with severe GBS. The mRNA levels of TLR4, TLR2 and NF-κB in the PBMCs of GBS patients were significantly higher than those of healthy individuals. LPS activated THP-1 cells, and free cholesterol treatment increased the expression of TLR4, TLR2, NF-κB and IL-1β mRNA in LPS-activated THP-1 cells.ConclusionDyslipidemia was correlated with the risk of GBS and severe GBS. Remnant cholesterol may promote the activation of monocytes in GBS patients. It may be valuable to control lipid levels in the prevention of GBS and severe GBS.

Abstract
BackgroundPrevious studies have demonstrated that inflammation and impaired microcirculation are key factors in post-resuscitation syndromes. Here, we investigated whether methylprednisolone (MP) could improve myocardial function and microcirculation by suppressing the systemic inflammatory response following cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in a rat model of cardiac arrest (CA).MethodsSprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to (1) sham, (2) control, and (3) drug groups. Ventricular fibrillation was induced and then followed by CPR. The rats were infused with either MP or vehicle at the start of CPR. Myocardial function and microcirculation were assessed at baseline and after the restoration of spontaneous circulation. Blood samples were drawn at baseline and 60-min post-resuscitation to assess serum cytokine (TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6) levels.ResultsMyocardial function [estimated by the ejection fraction (EF), myocardial performance index (MPI), and cardiac output (CO)] improved post-ROSC in the MP group compared with those in the control group (p < 0.05). MP decreased the levels of the aforementioned pro-inflammatory cytokines and alleviated cerebral, sublingual, and intestinal microcirculation compared with the control (p < 0.05). A negative correlation emerged between the cytokine profile and microcirculatory blood flow.ConclusionMP treatment reduced post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction, inhibited pro-inflammatory cytokines, and improved microcirculation in the initial recovery phase in a CA and resuscitation animal model. Therefore, MP could be a potential clinical target for CA patients in the early phase after CPR to alleviate myocardial dysfunction and improve prognosis.

Abstract
The systemic inflammatory response following global myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a critical driver of poor outcomes. Both pyroptosis and necroptosis are involved in the systemic inflammatory response and contribute to regional myocardial I/R injury. This study aimed to explore the effect of necrosulfonamide (NSA) on post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction in a rat model of cardiac arrest. Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly categorized to Sham, CPR and CPR-NSA groups. For rats in the latter two groups, ventricular fibrillation was induced without treatment for 6 min, with cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) being sustained for 8 min. Rats were injected with NSA (10 mg/kg in DMSO) or vehicle at 5 min following return of spontaneous circulation. Myocardial function was measured by echocardiography, survival and neurological deficit score (NDS) were recorded at 24, 48, and 72 h after ROSC. Western blotting was used to assess pyroptosis- and necroptosis-related protein expression. ELISAs were used to measure levels of inflammatory cytokine. Rats in the CPR-NSA group were found to exhibit superior post-resuscitation myocardial function, and better NDS values in the group of CPR-NSA. Rats in the group of CPR-NSA exhibited median survival duration of 68 ± 8 h as compared to 34 ± 21 h in the CPR group. After treatment with NSA, NOD-like receptor 3 (NLRP3), GSDMD-N, phosphorylated-MLKL, and phosphorylated-RIP3 levels in cardiac tissue were reduced with corresponding reductions in inflammatory cytokine levels. Administration of NSA significantly improved myocardial dysfunction succeeding global myocardial I/R injury and enhanced survival outcomes through protective mechanisms potentially related to inhibition of pyroptosis and necroptosis pathways.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of venous blood carbon dioxide binding capacity (CO2-CP) on the short-term prognosis of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) after thrombolytic therapy. METHODS A total of 86 AIS inpatients who received thrombolytic therapy in the emergency department of Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University from April 2019 to May 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the venous blood CO2-CP levels at admission, the patients were divided into two groups: low CO2-CP group (CO2-CP < 23 mmol/L, n = 52) and high CO2-CP group (CO2-CP ≥ 23 mmol/L, n = 34). The CO2-CP levels and changes between the two groups before and after thrombolytic therapy were compared. The National Institutes of Health Stroke scale (NIHSS) score was used to evaluate the improvement rate of patients after thrombolytic therapy [NIHSS score at admission-NIHSS score at discharge)/NIHSS score at admission ×100%] and in-hospital death was also recorded. The correlation between CO2-CP levels and prognosis of patients with AIS during emergency visit was analyzed, the receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was calculated to evaluate the predictive value of CO2-CP in the prognosis of AIS patients. RESULTS The CO2-CP levels of low CO2-CP group and high CO2-CP group after thrombolytic therapy were significantly higher than those before treatment (mmol/L: 23.08±2.34 vs. 20.46±1.51, 25.24±2.16 vs. 23.94±1.07, both P < 0.05). The differences of CO2-CP before and after treatment in low CO2-CP group were significantly higher than those in high CO2-CP group (mmol/L: 2.62±0.83 vs. 1.30±1.09, P < 0.05). The improvement rate of CO2-CP levels in the high CO2-CP group (NIHSS improvement rate > 45%) was significantly higher than that in the low CO2-CP group [85.29% (29/34) vs. 23.08% (12/52)], while the mortality in the low CO2-CP group was significantly higher than that in the high CO2-CP group [11.54% (6/52) vs. 0% (0/34), P < 0.05]. The AUC of CO2-CP for the prognosis of patients with AIS thrombolysis was 0.820, the 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was 0.727-0.924, P = 0.000 1. CONCLUSION AIS patients with CO2-CP levels less than 23 mmol/L have a poor short-term prognosis, which has certain predictive and clinical reference value for choosing thrombolytic time in emergency stroke patients.

Abstract
Objectives This is a comparative cohort study aiming to evaluate the mortality risk factors for patients with nosocomial meningitis (NM) induced by multidrug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (MDRE) in China. The clinical features and therapies of patients and the resistance mechanisms of MDRE pathogens were also assessed. Methods MDRE-NM patients from two neurosurgical centers in China from 2014 to 2019 were included in this study. Clinical features were extracted from the medical record databases of the two centers. The molecular mechanisms underlying the microbiological resistance mechanisms of each MDRE pathogen were determined, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was conducted, and multivariable analyses were performed using a Cox proportional hazard model. Results Ninety MDRE-NM patients were included in this study. Klebsiella pneumoniae accounted for the highest proportion of causative pathogens (46/90, 51.1%), and 40 causative pathogens (44.4%) were meropenem-resistant. blaKPC (27/40, 67.5%) was the predominant carbapenem resistance gene. Multivariate Cox analysis showed that external ventricular drainage (EVD) [hazard ratio (HR) = 2.524, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.101-5.787, p = 0.029] and a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score ≤;8 (HR = 4.033, 95% CI = 1.526-10.645, p = 0.005) were mortality risk factors for patients with MDRE-NM. A total of 90.0%, 94.4%, and 97.8% of MDRE-NM patients received antibiotic prophylaxis (AP), antibiotic empirical therapy (AET), and antibiotic definitive therapy (ADT), respectively. Conclusions NM caused by MDRE is an important sign of the failure of neurosurgery. MDRE possesses multiple drug resistance genotypes, and EVD and a GCS score ≤;8 are independent mortality risk factors for patients with MDRE-NM, which deserve the attention of microbiologists and neurosurgical clinicians.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are emerging as a potential candidate for stem cell transplantation to repair myocardial tissue in myocardial infarctions (MI). However, there are some pivotal limitations such as poor survival and low migration capacity of MSCs in hypoxic and ischemic microenvironments of MI. Our previous work verified that ELABELA (also abbreviated as ELA), a peptide hormone, could play a role as a growth factor and prolong the life span of rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (RAT BM-MSCs) under hypoxic and ischemic conditions. Nevertheless, the influence of ELA on the cell cycle, proliferation, and migration remains elusive. This study will further explore the improvement of the biological functions of ELA-treated RAT BM-MSCs, so as to provide a reference for improving the efficacy of RAT BM-MSCs in MI. METHODS Rat BM-MSCs were isolated from 80 to 120 g Sprague Dawley rats by flushing femurs and tibias under the aseptic condition. RAT BM-MSCs of the third passage were divided into control group, hypoxic/ischemic (H/I) group, ELA group, ELA-LY group and LY group. RAT BM-MSCs were cultured under normoxia in control group. In H/I group, RAT BM-MSCs were exposed to hypoxia (1% O2) and serum deprivation for 24 h. RAT BM-MSCs in ELA group were treated with 5 µM ELA prior to the H/I exposure for 24 h. The PI3K/AKT inhibitor, LY294002 (50 µM), was used in ELA-LY group and LY group to observe the effect of ELA on PI3K/AKT activation. Cell proliferation ability was examined by CCK-8. Cell cycle was assessed with flow cytometry. Cell migration was evaluated by Transwell assay. Expression levels of total-AKT, phosphorylated-AKT, and cell cycle-associated proteins were examined by Western blotting. RESULTS ELA-treated RAT BM-MSCs exhibited significantly higher proliferation ability, cell viability, and migration under H/I conditions. The cell cycle analysis showed that an increased proportion of cells in the S and G2/M phases of the cell cycle were observed in ELA-treated RAT BM-MSCs. The addition of ELA activated the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Additionally, upon treating with the inhibitor of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, ELA-triggered proliferation, cell viability, and migration were abrogated. CONCLUSIONS ELA can be used to enhance the proliferation ability, cell viability, and migration of RAT BM-MSCs through the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and alleviate cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase under hypoxic and ischemic injury. Thus, this study provides a promising strategy that ELA may help to optimize the mesenchymal stem cell-based therapy in MI.

Abstract
There is an urgent need to develop a rapid procedure that can rapidly identify and obtain antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) results directly from positive blood cultures. Here, we report a semi-automatic bacterial diagnosis procedure, which includes (1) a bacterial concentration process to isolate bacteria from a positive blood culture bottle (PBCB), (2) an identification process using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS), and (3) a rapid AST process based on stimulated Raman scattering imaging of deuterium oxide (D2O) incorporation in bacteria. A total of 105 samples were tested for bacterial identification, and a bacterial identification accuracy of 92.3% was achieved. AST takes about 2.5 h after identification. This semi-automatic procedure only takes 3.5 h, which is demonstrated to be the fastest process to obtain identification and AST results starting from PBCBs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute inflammatory autoimmune and demyelinating disease of the peripheral nervous system. Currently, valid biomarkers are unavailable for the diagnosis of GBS. METHODS A comparative proteomics analysis was performed on the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from 10 patients with GBS and 10 patients with noninflammatory neurological disease (NND) using the tandem mass tags technique. The differentially expressed proteins were analyzed by bioinformatics, and then the candidate proteins were validated by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method in another cohort containing 160 samples (paired CSF and plasma of 40 patients with GBS, CSF of 40 NND patients and plasma of 40 healthy individuals). RESULTS In all, 298 proteins were successfully identified in the CSF samples, of which 97 differentially expressed proteins were identified in the GBS and NND groups. Three key molecules were identified as candidate molecules for further validation. The CSF levels of TGOLN2 and NCAM1 decreased in GBS patients compared with NND patients, whereas the CSF levels of APOC3 increased. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay results were consistent with our proteomics analysis. Interestingly, in the validation cohort, serum APOC3 levels in the GBS group were consistent with those in the CSF samples and significantly higher than those in the healthy control group. CONCLUSIONS Our preliminary data suggest that the CSF protein expression profile of patients with GBS is different from that of patients with NND. Moreover, alterations of TGOLN2, NCAM1and APOC3 may be used as novel biomarkers for identifying patients with GBS.

Abstract
Cardiac arrest (CA) remains a major public health issue. Inflammatory responses with overproduction of interleukin-1β regulated by NLRP3 inflammasome activation play a crucial role in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury. We investigated the effects of the selective NLRP3-inflammasome inhibitor MCC950 on post-resuscitation cerebral function and neurologic outcome in a rat model of cardiac arrest. Thirty-six male rats were randomized into the MCC950 group, the control group, or the sham group (N = 12 of each group). Each group was divided into a 6 h non-survival subgroup (N = 6) and a 24 h survival subgroup (N = 6). Ventricular fibrillation (VF) was electrically induced and untreated for 6 min, followed by 8 min of precordial compressions and mechanical ventilation. Resuscitation was attempted with a 4J defibrillation. Either MCC950 (10 mg/kg) or vehicle was injected intraperitoneally immediately after the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Rats in the sham group underwent the same surgical procedures without VF and CPR. Brain edema, cerebral microcirculation, plasma interleukin Iβ (IL-1β), and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) concentration were measured at 6 h post-ROSC of non-survival subgroups, while 24 h survival rate, neurological deficits were measured at 24 h post-ROSC of survival subgroups. Post-resuscitation brain edema was significantly reduced in animals treated with MCC950 (p < 0.05). Cerebral perfused vessel density (PVD) and microcirculatory flow index (MFI) values were significantly higher in the MCC950 group compared with the control group (p < 0.05). The plasma concentrations of IL-1β and NSE were significantly decreased in animals treated with MCC950 compared with the control group (p < 0.05). 24 h-survival rate and neurological deficits score (NDS) was also significantly improved in the MCC950 group compared with the control group (p < 0.05). NLRP3 inflammasome blockade with MCC950 at ROSC reduces the circulatory level of IL-1β, preserves cerebral microcirculation, mitigates cerebral edema, improves the 24 h-survival rate, and neurological deficits.

Abstract
Objective Here, we aimed to identify protein biomarkers that could rapidly and accurately diagnose multiple sclerosis (MS) using a highly sensitive proteomic immunoassay. Methods Tandem mass tag (TMT) quantitative proteomic analysis was performed to determine the differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples collected from 10 patients with MS and 10 non-inflammatory neurological controls (NINCs). The DEPs were analyzed using bioinformatics tools, and the candidate proteins were validated using the ELISA method in another cohort comprising 160 samples (paired CSF and plasma of 40 patients with MS, CSF of 40 NINCs, and plasma of 40 healthy individuals). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to determine the diagnostic potential of this method. Results Compared to NINCs, we identified 83 CSF-specific DEPs out of a total of 343 proteins in MS patients. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis revealed that these DEPs are mainly involved in platelet degranulation, negative regulation of proteolysis, and post-translational protein modification. Pathway enrichment analysis revealed that the complement and coagulation cascades, Ras signaling pathway, and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway are the main components. Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7), insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2), and somatostatin (SST) were identified as the potential proteins with high scores, degree, and centrality in the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network. We validated the expression of these three proteins using ELISA. Compared to NINCs, the level of CSF IGFBP7 was significantly upregulated, and the level of CSF SST was significantly downregulated in the MS group. Conclusion Our results suggest that SST and IGFBP7 might be associated with the pathogenesis of MS and would be helpful in diagnosing MS. Since IGFBP7 was used to classify relapsing remitting MS (RRMS) and secondary progressive MS (SPMS) patients, therefore, it may act as a potential key marker and therapeutic target in MS.

Abstract
Brain mitochondria are more sensitive to global ischemia compared to heart mitochondria. Complex I in the electron transport chain (ETC) is sensitive to ischemic injury and is a major control point of the rate of ADP stimulated oxygen consumption. The purpose of this study was to explore whether changes in cerebral and myocardial mitochondria differ after cardiac arrest. Animals were randomized into 4 groups (n = 6): 1) Sham 2) VF 3) VF+CPR 4) ROSC 1hr. Ventricular Fibrillation (VF) was induced through a guide wire advanced from the right jugular vein into the ventricle and untreated for 8 min. Resuscitation was attempted with a 4J defibrillation after 8 min of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Brain mitochondria and cardiac mitochondrial subpopulations were isolated. Calcium retention capacity was measured to assess susceptibility to mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening. ADP stimulated oxygen consumption and ETC activity assays were performed. Brain mitochondria are far more sensitive to injury during cardiac arrest and resuscitation compared to cardiac mitochondria. Complex I is highly sensitive to injury in brain mitochondria. With markedly decreased calcium retention capacity, mitochondria contribute to cerebral reperfusion injury. Therapeutic preservation of cerebral mitochondrial activity and mitochondrial function during cardiac arrest may improve post-resuscitation neurologic function.

Abstract
Aim To evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic value of CSF presepsin levels in patients with postneurosurgical ventriculitis/meningitis (PNVM). Methods We conducted a case-control study to achieve our aims. First, we prospectively enrolled patients who had undergone neurosurgery in Beijing Tiantan Hospital from June to November 2020 and measured the CSF levels of 8 biomarkers, including presepsin and other meningitis biomarkers. The diagnostic and prognostic accuracies of presepsin levels were evaluated by determining the values for the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results Two hundred thirty-nine patients were enrolled in this study; 34 were diagnosed with confirmed ventriculitis/meningitis (cVM), 138 were classified as probable ventriculitis/meningitis (pVM), and the others were rejected ventriculitis/meningitis (rVM). Presepsin levels effectively diagnose cVM and predict the outcomes of patients with PNVM, with thresholds of 1257.4 pg/mL and 1276.2 pg/mL and AUCs of 0.746 and 0.825, respectively. Furthermore, a joint analysis with CSF lactate (C-Lac) levels shows that the AUCs of the two markers increased to 0.856 and 0.872, respectively. Conclusion The rapid diagnosis and prediction of the clinical outcome is important in neurosurgery. CSF presepsin levels are an impressive diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for meningitis, and when combined with C-Lac, they indeed improve the diagnostic and predictive efficiency of PNVM.

Abstract
In this study, we aimed to explore the role of lncRNAs in post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction in a rat model of CA-CPR. A rat model of CA-CPR was constructed using a VF method. Myocardial functions, including cardiac output (CO), ejection fraction (EF), and myocardial performance index (MPI), were evaluated at the baseline, and 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 h after resuscitation. A high throughput sequencing method was used to screen the differentially expressed lncRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs, which were further analyzed with bioinformatics. In addition, relationships between the molecules involved in the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway were explored with ceRNA network. Compared with the sham group, EF was significantly reduced and MPI was increased at the five consecutive time points in the CA-CPR group. 68 lncRNAs were upregulated and 40 lncRNAs were downregulated in the CA-CPR group, while 30 miRNAs were downregulated and 19 miRNAs were upregulated. Moreover, mRNAs were also differentially expressed, with 676 upregulated and 588 downregulated. GO analysis suggested that genes associated with cell proliferation, cell death and programmed cell death were significantly enriched. KEGG analysis showed that the PI3K/Akt, MAPK and Ras signaling pathways were the three most-enriched pathways. Construction of a ceRNA regulatory network indicated that LOC102549506, LOC103689920, and LOC103690137 might play important roles in the regulation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in the CA-CPR treated rat. Taken together, LncRNAs, including LOC102549506, LOC103689920 and LOC103690137, might participate in post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction by functioning as ceRNAs and regulating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the role and expression pattern of LIM-domain binding protein 2 (LDB2) in lung adenocarcinoma. OBJECTIVE We studied the expression pattern of LDB2 in lung adenocarcinoma based on data from the online databases TCGA, GEO and CPTAC, and the results were verified in lung adenocarcinoma tissues and cells using immunohistochemistry, qRT-PCR and Western blotting. The relationship between LDB2 and the prognosis of patients with lung adenocarcinoma was analyzed using GEPIA and GEO databases. We further analyzed the role of LDB2 in regulating cell behaviors in a H1299 cell model over-expressing LDB2 using cell counting, soft agar colony forming assay and flow cytometry. The m6A binding sites on LDB2 were confirmed by bioinformatics analysis and MeRIP-qPCR assays. The effect of YTHDC2 on LDB2 was examined using qRT-PCR and Western blotting, and the binding of YTHDC2 to the transcript of LDB2 was verified with RIP-qPCR assays. Dual luciferase reporter assay was performed to verify YTHDC2 functioning via m6A sites. OBJECTIVE LDB2 expression was significantly decreased in lung adenocarcinoma in comparison with normal tissues based on data from TCGA, GEPIA and CPTAC, and the same results were obtained from 80 lung adenocarcinoma tissues and 17 adjacent normal tissues. Similarly, LDB2 expression was decreased in lung adenocarcinoma cells as compared with 16HBE cells. The data from Prognoscan and GEPIA suggested that a high LDB2 expression was positively correlated with a more favorable outcome of lung adenocarcinoma patients. LDB2-overexpressing H1299 cells showed a significant inhibition of proliferative activity with cell cycle arrest in S phage. Bioinformatics analysis and MeRIP-qPCR assay confirmed the presence of m6A sites on LDB2. The m6A reader YTHDC2 was positively related with LDB2 in lung adenocarcinoma based on data from GEPIA (r=0.22). Overexpression YTHDC2 significantly enhanced LDB2 expression in H1299 cells by about 19.35 folds. Dual luciferase reporter assay showed that YTHDC2 enhanced the promoter activity in the wild-type group but not in deletion group. OBJECTIVE LDB2 expression can be up-regulated by m6A reader YTHDC2 in lung adenocarcinoma to inhibit the proliferation of the tumor cells in vitro.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) differentiate into oligodendrocytes (OLs) that provide nutrients to neurons. Adrenal medulla is (ADM) involved in nerve damage. MiR-24 participates in various diseases. However, the regulation and mechanism of miR-24 in oligodendrocyte precursor cell differentiation after spinal injury is unclear. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Wistar rats were divided into sham operation group and model group. Real Time-PCR detects miR-24, PDGFRa and NG2 and MBP expression. OPC cells were cultured and divided into control group, miR-24 group, and si-miR-24 group followed by analysis of miR-24 expression by Real Time-PCR, expression of PDGFRa, NG2 and MBP by Western blot, as well as ADM content and secretion of IL-6 and TNF-α by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS Expression of miR-24, PDGFRa, and NG2 was increased in the model group and MBP and ADM expression was decreased with increased secretion of IL-6 and TNF-α. Compared with control group, the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). Upregulation of miR-24 promoted the expression of PDGFRa and NG2, decreased MBP and ADM level, and increased IL-6 and TNF-α secretion. Compared with control group, the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). Downregulation of miR-24 reversed the above changes, and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS MiR-24 expression is increased in spinal injury. Upregulation of miR-24 expression reduces adrenal medulla expression and inhibits oligodendrocyte precursor cell differentiation.

Abstract
The present study was aimed to evaluate the chemopreventive potential of galangin against benzo(a)pyrene (BaP)-induced stomach carcinogenesis in Swiss albino mice. Stomach cancer was induced in experimental mice using BaP oral administration. The mice were treated with galangin (10 mg/kg b.wt.) before and during BaP administration. Oral administration of galangin at a dose of 10 mg/kg b.wt. significantly (p < 0.05) prevented the tumor incidence, tumor volume in the experimental animals. Further, galangin pretreatment prevents BaP-induced lipid peroxidation and restores BaP-mediated loss of cellular antioxidants status. It has also been found that galangin prevents BaP-induced activation of phase I detoxification enzymes. Furthermore, galangin pretreatment prevented the BaP-induced overexpression of cytochrome P450s isoform genes (CYP1A1, CYP1B1), aryl hydrocarbon receptor system (AhR, ARNT), transcriptional activators (CBP/p300, NF-kB), tumor growth factors, proto-oncogenes, invasion markers (TGFB, SRC-1, MYC, iNOS, MMP2, MMP9) and Phase II metabolic isoenzyme genes (GST) in the stomach tissue homogenate when compared to the control groups. The western blot results confirm that galangin (10 mg/kg. b.wt.) treatment significantly prevented the BaP-mediated expression of ArR, ARNT, and CYP1A1 proteins in the mouse stomach tissue. Therefore, the present results confirm that galangin prevents BaP-induced stomach carcinogenesis probably through modulating ArR and ARNT expression in the experimental mice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To determine the phenotype, molecular characterisation and risk factors of postoperative meningitis induced by Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Enterobacteriaceae (EPE) in China. METHODS We performed a multi-centre comparative cohort study of postoperative meningitis patients infected with Enterobacteriaceae in 4 neurosurgical centres in China from January 2014 to December 2019. Phenotype and molecular characteristics of the isolates were reviewed and tested, and independent risk factors of the EPE meningitis were evaluated by binary logistic regression. RESULTS In total, 220 Enterobacteriaceae include 78 EPE were available in this study. 85.6% (67/78) ESBL-related genes were tested, and blaSHV (14.9%) and blaSHV + blaTEM + blaCTX-M-9 (20.9%) were found to be the most frequent mono and combined ESBL-related genes harboured by Enterobacteriaceae. On binary logistic analysis, craniotomy (OR. 2.583, 95% C.I. 1.274-5.235, P = 0.008) and malignancy (OR. 2.406, 95% C.I. 1.299-4.456, P = 0.005) were the associated independent risk factors to meningitis induced by EPE. CONCLUSIONS To the best of our knowledge, this is the largest series focusing on risk factors of EPE meningitis which has been conducted in China. Craniotomy and malignancy were independent risk factors for EPE meningitis. The risk factors identified may be further utilized in clinical practice and research to avoid and reduce the mortality in future.

Abstract
Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) has become a widely used technology that can accurately detect individual pathogens. This prospective study was performed between February 2019 and September 2019 in one of the largest clinical neurosurgery centers in China. The study aimed to evaluate the performance of mNGS on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from neurosurgical patients for the diagnosis of external ventricular and lumbar drainage (EVD/LD)-associated ventriculitis and meningitis (VM). We collected CSF specimens from neurosurgical patients with EVD/LD for more than 24 h to perform conventional microbiological studies and mNGS analyses in a pairwise manner. We also investigated the usefulness of mNGS of CSF for the diagnosis of EVD/LD-associated VM. In total, 102 patients were enrolled in this study and divided into three groups, including confirmed VM (cVM) (39), suspected VM (sVM) (49), and non-VM (nVM) (14) groups. Of all the patients, mNGS detected 21 Gram-positive bacteria, 20 Gram-negative bacteria, and five fungi. The three primary bacteria detected were Staphylococcus epidermidis (9), Acinetobacter baumannii (5), and Staphylococcus aureus (3). The mNGS-positive coincidence rate of confirmed EVD/LD-associated VM was 61.54% (24/39), and the negative coincidence rate of the nVM group was 100% (14/14). Of 15 VM pathogens not identified by mNGS in the cVM group, eight were negative with mNGS and seven were inconsistent with the conventional microbiological identification results. In addition, mNGS identified pathogens in 22 cases that were negative using conventional methods; of them, 10 patients received a favorable clinical treatment; thus, showing the benefit of mNGS-guided therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have exerted their brilliant potential to promote heart repair following myocardial infarction. However, low survival rate of MSCs after transplantation due to harsh conditions with hypoxic and ischemic stress limits their therapeutic efficiency in treating cardiac dysfunction. ELABELA (ELA) serves as a peptide hormone which has been proved to facilitate cell growth, survival, and pluripotency in human embryonic stem cells. Although ELA works as an endogenous ligand of a G protein-coupled receptor APJ (Apelin receptor, APLNR), whether APJ is an essential signal for the function of ELA remains elusive. The effect of ELA on apoptosis of MSCs is still vague. OBJECTIVE We studied the role of ELABELA (ELA) treatment on the anti-apoptosis of MSCs in hypoxic/ischemic (H/I) conditions which mimic the impaired myocardial microenvironment and explored the possible mechanisms in vitro. METHODS MSCs were obtained from donated rats weighing between 80~120 g. MSCs were exposed to serum-free and hypoxic (1% O2) environments for 24 h, which mimics hypoxic/ischemic damage in vivo, using serum-containing normoxic conditions (20% O2) as a negative control. MSCs that were exposed to H/I injury with ELA processing were treated by 5 μM of ELA. Cell viability and apoptosis of MSCs were evaluated by CCK8 and flow cytometry, respectively. Mitochondrial function of MSCs was also assessed according to mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and ATP content. The protein expression of key kinases of the PI3K/AKT and ERK1/2 signaling pathways involving t-AKT, p-AKT, t-ERK1/2, and p-ERK1/2, as well as apoptosis-related protein expression of Bcl-2, Bax, and cleaved Caspase 3, were monitored by Western blot. RESULTS We found that ELA treatment of H/I-induced MSCs improved overall cell viability, enhanced Bcl/Bax expression, and decreased Caspase 3 activity. ELA inhibited H/I-induced mitochondrial dysfunction by increasing ATP concentration and suppressing the loss of mitochondrial transmembrane potential. However, this anti-apoptotic property of ELA was restrained in APJ-silenced MSCs. Additionally, ELA treatment induced the phosphorylation of AKT and ERK, while the blockade of PI3K/AKT and ERK1/2 pathways with respective inhibitors, LY294002 and U0126, suppressed the action of ELA. CONCLUSION ELA positively affected on the survival of MSCs and exhibited anti-apoptotic characteristics when exposed to hypoxic/ischemic condition in vitro. Also, the function of ELA was correlated with the APJ receptor, reduced mitochondrial damage, and activation of the PI3K/AKT and ERK1/2 signal axes.

Abstract
Background Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have exerted their brilliant potential to promote heart repair following myocardial infarction. However, low survival rate of MSCs after transplantation due to harsh conditions with hypoxic and ischemic stress limits their therapeutic efficiency in treating cardiac dysfunction. ELABELA (ELA) serves as a peptide hormone which has been proved to facilitate cell growth, survival, and pluripotency in human embryonic stem cells. Although ELA works as an endogenous ligand of a G protein-coupled receptor APJ (Apelin receptor, APLNR), whether APJ is an essential signal for the function of ELA remains elusive. The effect of ELA on apoptosis of MSCs is still vague. Objective We studied the role of ELABELA (ELA) treatment on the anti-apoptosis of MSCs in hypoxic/ischemic (H/I) conditions which mimic the impaired myocardial microenvironment and explored the possible mechanisms in vitro.

N-acetylcysteine alleviates post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction and improves survival outcomes via partly inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome induced-pyroptosis. J Inflamm (Lond) 2020; 17:25.

Abstract
Background NOD-like receptor 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is necessary to initiate acute sterile inflammation. Increasing evidence indicates the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome induced pyroptosis is closely related to reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the sterile inflammatory response triggered by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is an antioxidant and plays a protective role in local myocardial I/R injury, while its effect on post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction, as well as its mechanisms, remain elusive. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of NAC on post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction in a cardiac arrest rat model, and whether its underlying mechanism may be linked to ROS and NLRP3 inflammasome-induced pyroptosis. Methods The rats were randomized into three groups: (1) sham group, (2) cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) group, and (3) CPR + NAC group. CPR group and CPR + NAC group went through the induction of ventricular fibrillation (VF) and resuscitation. After return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), rats in the CPR and CPR + NAC groups were again randomly divided into two subgroups, ROSC 6 h and ROSC 72 h, for further analysis. Hemodynamic measurements and myocardial function were measured by echocardiography, and western blot was used to detect the expression of proteins. Results Results showed that after treatment with NAC, there was significantly better myocardial function and survival duration; protein expression levels of NLRP3, adaptor apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (ASC), Cleaved-Caspase-1 and gasdermin D (GSDMD) in myocardial tissues were significantly decreased; and inflammatory cytokines levels were reduced. The marker of oxidative stress malondialdehyde (MDA) decreased and superoxide dismutase (SOD) increased with NAC treatment. Conclusions NAC improved myocardial dysfunction and prolonged animal survival duration in a rat model of cardiac arrest. Moreover, possibly by partly inhibiting ROS-mediated NLRP3 inflammasome-induced pryoptosis.
