Abstract
Unpredictable treatment responses have been an obstacle for the successful management of rheumatoid arthritis. Although numerous serum proteins have been proposed, there is a lack of integrative survey to compare their relevance in predicting treatment outcomes in rheumatoid arthritis. Also, little is known about their applications in various treatment stages, such as dose modification, drug switching or withdrawal. Here we present an in-depth exploration of the potential usefulness of serum proteins in clinical decision-making and unveil the spectrum of immunopathology underlying responders to different drugs. Patients with robust autoimmunity and inflammation are more responsive to biological treatments and prone to relapse during treatment de-escalation. Moreover, the concentration changes of serum proteins at the beginning of the treatments possibly assist early recognition of treatment responders. With a better understanding of the relationship between the serum proteome and treatment responses, personalized medicine in rheumatoid arthritis will be more achievable in the near future.

Abstract
Here, we describe the implementation of the fast proteomics search engine MSFragger as a processing node in the widely used Proteome Discoverer (PD) software platform. PeptideProphet (via the Philosopher tool kit) is also implemented as an additional PD node to allow validation of MSFragger open (mass-tolerant) search results. These two nodes, along with the existing Percolator validation module, allow users to employ different search strategies and conveniently inspect search results through PD. Our results have demonstrated the improved numbers of PSMs, peptides, and proteins identified by MSFragger coupled with Percolator and significantly faster search speed compared to the conventional SEQUEST/Percolator PD workflows. The MSFragger-PD node is available at https://github.com/nesvilab/PD-Nodes/releases/.

Abstract
Isobaric labeling-based proteomics is widely applied in deep proteome quantification. Among the platforms for isobaric labeled proteomic data analysis, the commercial software Proteome Discoverer (PD) is widely used, incorporating the search engine CHIMERYS, while FragPipe (FP) is relatively new, free for noncommercial purposes, and integrates the engine MSFragger. Here, we compared PD and FP over three public proteomic data sets labeled using 6plex, 10plex, and 16plex tandem mass tags. Our results showed the protein abundances generated by the two software are highly correlated. PD quantified more proteins (10.02%, 15.44%, 8.19%) than FP with comparable NA ratios (0.00% vs. 0.00%, 0.85% vs. 0.38%, and 11.74% vs. 10.52%) in the three data sets. Using the 16plex data set, PD and FP outputs showed high consistency in quantifying technical replicates, batch effects, and functional enrichment in differentially expressed proteins. However, FP saved 93.93%, 96.65%, and 96.41% of processing time compared to PD for analyzing the three data sets, respectively. In conclusion, while PD is a well-maintained commercial software integrating various additional functions and can quantify more proteins, FP is freely available and achieves similar output with a shorter computational time. Our results will guide users in choosing the most suitable quantification software for their needs.

Abstract
Background Concerning about the spread of COVID-19, World Health Organization recommends wearing facemasks to minimize viral transmission. Patients are required to wear facemasks while conducting treadmill exercise tests in hospitals. The effects of mask-wearing on the results of stress exercise testing remain uncertain. Purpose This study aims to assess the impact of mask-wearing on the physiological parameters during treadmill exercise testing. Methods Patients who underwent treadmill exercise test using the Bruce protocol for the diagnosis of ischemic heart disease were retrospectively examined between 2020 and 2021. A propensity score matching was performed to adjust the baseline characteristics of patients with and without mask. Blood pressure, heart rate, exercise duration, and the interpretation of stress test were compared. The ischemic ST-segment response was defined as flat or downsloping depression of the ST seg-ment >0.1 mV below baseline and lasting longer than 0.08 second. Nondiagnostic result of treadmill exercise test was defined as absence of ischemic ST-segment response in which the 90% of maximal predicted heart rate for age and sex was not achieved. Results Following 1:1 propensity score matching, a total of 3,996 patients were enrolled for analysis, including 1,998 patients who performed treadmill exercise testing with masks, and 1,998 without masks. Baseline characteristics were similar between the two groups (mean age, 56.1±12.1 years; 38.7% female; mean body mass index, 25.5±3.9 kg/m2). At baseline, patients with masks had significantly higher heart rate (84.8±14.7 bpm vs. 82.5±14.0 bpm; p<0.001) and lower systolic blood pressure (130.4±19.0 mmHg vs. 132.4±18.7 mmHg; p=0.001) than those without masks. Patients with masks conducted significantly shorter duration of exercise (435±128 seconds vs. 481±133 seconds; p<0.001), achieved significantly lower measurement of peak heart rate (149.5±17.1 bpm vs. 152.7±17.0 bpm; p<0.001), and had significantly lower rate-pressure products (26,366±5,207 mmHg·bpm vs. 27,629±5,242 mmHg*bpm; p<0.001) than those without masks. The proportion of patients who were unable to complete stage II of the Bruce protocol was significantly higher among patients with masks (15.1% vs. 9.0%; p<0.001). The proportion of nondiagnostic result was significantly higher among patients with mask (12.2% vs. 8.8%; p<0.001), whereas the proportion of positive ischemic ST-segment response rate was significantly higher among patients without mask (28.1% vs. 23.3%; p=0.001). Conclusions Our study demonstrated that performing treadmill exercise test with mask could significantly decrease the duration of exercise, reduce the maximal achieved heart rate, decease the rate-pressure product, and thus reduce the diagnostic power of treadmill exercise testing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a catastrophic complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD) with high mortality. Our aim is to develop a novel noninvasive microRNA (miRNA) test for EPS. METHODS We collected 142 PD effluents (EPS: 62 and non-EPS:80). MiRNA profiles of PD effluents were examined by a high-throughput real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) array to first screen. Candidate miRNAs were verified by single real-time PCR. The model for EPS prediction was evaluated by multiple logistic regression and machine learning. RESULTS Seven candidate miRNAs were identified from the screening of PCR-array of 377 miRNAs. The top five area under the curve (AUC) values with 5 miRNA-ratios were selected using 127 samples (EPS: 56 vs non-EPS: 71) to produce a receiver operating characteristic curve. After considering clinical characteristics and 5 miRNA-ratios, the accuracies of the machine learning model of Random Forest and multiple logistic regression were boosted to AUC 0.97 and 0.99, respectively. Furthermore, the pathway analysis of miRNA associated targeting genes and miRNA-compound interaction network revealed that these five miRNAs played the roles in TGF-β signaling pathway. CONCLUSION The model-based miRNA expressions in PD effluents may help determine the probability of EPS and provide further therapeutic opinion for EPS.

Abstract
We present a proteogenomic study of 108 human papilloma virus (HPV)-negative head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs). Proteomic analysis systematically catalogs HNSCC-associated proteins and phosphosites, prioritizes copy number drivers, and highlights an oncogenic role for RNA processing genes. Proteomic investigation of mutual exclusivity between FAT1 truncating mutations and 11q13.3 amplifications reveals dysregulated actin dynamics as a common functional consequence. Phosphoproteomics characterizes two modes of EGFR activation, suggesting a new strategy to stratify HNSCCs based on EGFR ligand abundance for effective treatment with inhibitory EGFR monoclonal antibodies. Widespread deletion of immune modulatory genes accounts for low immune infiltration in immune-cold tumors, whereas concordant upregulation of multiple immune checkpoint proteins may underlie resistance to anti-programmed cell death protein 1 monotherapy in immune-hot tumors. Multi-omic analysis identifies three molecular subtypes with high potential for treatment with CDK inhibitors, anti-EGFR antibody therapy, and immunotherapy, respectively. Altogether, proteogenomics provides a systematic framework to inform HNSCC biology and treatment.

Abstract
![]()
A growing number
of software tools have been developed for metabolomics
data processing and analysis. Many new tools are contributed by metabolomics
practitioners who have limited prior experience with software development,
and the tools are subsequently implemented by users with expertise
that ranges from basic point-and-click data analysis to advanced coding.
This Perspective is intended to introduce metabolomics software users
and developers to important considerations that determine the overall
impact of a publicly available tool within the scientific community.
The recommendations reflect the collective experience of an NIH-sponsored
Metabolomics Consortium working group that was formed with the goal
of researching guidelines and best practices for metabolomics tool
development. The recommendations are aimed at metabolomics researchers
with little formal background in programming and are organized into
three stages: (i) preparation, (ii) tool development, and (iii) distribution
and maintenance.

Abstract
We report a comprehensive proteogenomics analysis, including whole-genome sequencing, RNA sequencing, and proteomics and phosphoproteomics profiling, of 218 tumors across 7 histological types of childhood brain cancer: low-grade glioma (n = 93), ependymoma (32), high-grade glioma (25), medulloblastoma (22), ganglioglioma (18), craniopharyngioma (16), and atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor (12). Proteomics data identify common biological themes that span histological boundaries, suggesting that treatments used for one histological type may be applied effectively to other tumors sharing similar proteomics features. Immune landscape characterization reveals diverse tumor microenvironments across and within diagnoses. Proteomics data further reveal functional effects of somatic mutations and copy number variations (CNVs) not evident in transcriptomics data. Kinase-substrate association and co-expression network analysis identify important biological mechanisms of tumorigenesis. This is the first large-scale proteogenomics analysis across traditional histological boundaries to uncover foundational pediatric brain tumor biology and inform rational treatment selection.

Abstract
Abstract
We performed a comprehensive proteogenomic analysis across seven major types of childhood brain tumors for a deeper understanding of their functional biology. Whole genome seq, RNAseq, quantitative proteomic and phosphoproteomic profiling were performed on 219 fresh frozen tumor samples representing the histologic diagnoses of: low grade astrocytoma (93), ependymoma (32), high grade astrocytoma (26), medulloblastoma (22), ganglioglioma (18), craniopharyngioma (16) and atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor (12). Characterization of the tumor microenvironment through multi-omics based deconvolution analyses revealed 5 distinct tumor clusters associated with different populations of infiltrating immune cells: Cold-medullo, Cold-mixed, Epithelial, Neuronal and Hot. The two cold-tumor clusters have the lowest immune cell infiltration, one characterized by the enrichment of medulloblastoma tumors; while the other is a mixture of ependymoma, ATRT, HGG and medulloblastoma. The Epithelial group, on the other hand, was enriched in craniopharyngioma samples, an epithelium derived tumor. Interestingly, the RNA levels of PD-1 and CTLA4 were significantly upregulated in this Epithelial group, confirming that craniopharingioma could potentially benefit from anti PD-1 and/or CTLA-4 therapies as previously reported. LLG and ganglioglioma were allocated into two groups of Neuronal and Hot, the former characterized by the presence of neuronal cells, and the latter by the presence of macrophages, microglia, and dendritic cells. Adenosine producers (e.g., ENTPD1 and NT5E), which act as inhibitory immune checkpoint molecular, showed up-regulation in the Hot cluster based on both RNAseq and proteome data, suggesting patients in this group might benefit from adenosine reducing treatments. Among LGG tumors, there is a significant difference between microglial and macrophage polarization across BRAF statuses: BRAF-fusion promoted more pro-regenerative (immune suppressive) microglia than pro-inflammatory microglia, while BRAF-V600E promoted more pro-regenerative macrophages than pro-inflammatory macrophages, implying different immunosuppressive mechanisms in the BRAF-V600E and fusion tumors. This study reports the first large-scale deep comprehensive proteogenomic analysis crossing traditional histologic boundaries to uncover foundational pediatric brain tumor biology relating to tumor microenvironment. The incorporation of the proteomic and phosphoproteomic dimension into this large-scale multi-omic study adds functional insight that helps drive translational efforts.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In this study, granular activated carbon (GAC) was used as an adsorbent for biogas desulfurization. Biogas containing 932-2,350 ppm of H2S was collected from an anaerobic digester to treat the wastewater from a dairy farm with about 200 cows. An adsorption test was performed by introducing the biogas to a column that was packed with approximately 50 L of commercial GAC. The operation ceased if the effluent gas had an H2S concentration of over 100 ppm. The GAC was replaced by a given weight of new GAC in a subsequent test. According to the results, for H2S concentrations in the range of 932-1,560 ppm (average±SD = 1,260 ± 256 ppm), 1 kg of the GAC yielded biogas treatment capacities of 568 ± 112 m3 and H2S adsorption capacities of 979 ± 235 g. For the higher influent H2S concentrations of 2,110 ± 219 ppm, the biogas treatment and H2S-adsorption capacities decreased to 229 ± 18 m3 and 668 ± 47 g, respectively. An estimation indicated a requisite cost of US$16.5 for the purification of 1,000 m3 of biogas containing 2,110 ppm of H2S. This cost is approximately 5% of US$330, the value of 1,000 m3 of biogas. IMPLICATIONS Biogas generated from anaerobic digesters of animal manure and municipal wastewater sludge contains hydrogen sulfide which must be removed before it can be combusted in electricity-generation engines. This study demonstrated that commercial activated carbon adsorption can be an economical and effective approach for removing hydrogen sulfide from biogas. In this study, granular activated carbon (GAC) was used as an adsorbent for biogas desulfurization. The biogas containing 932-2,350 ppm of H2S was collected from an anaerobic digester for treating wastewater collected from a 200 dairy farm. The adsorption test was performed by introducing the biogas to a PVC column packed with a commercial GAC of around 50 L. Operation ceased if the effluent gas had an H2S concentration of over 100 ppm. A given weight of the new GAC was replaced for a successive test.

Abstract
Shotgun proteomics using liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is commonly used to identify peptides containing post-translational modifications. With the emergence of fast database search tools such as MSFragger, the approach of enlarging precursor mass tolerances during the search (termed "open search") has been increasingly used for comprehensive characterization of post-translational and chemical modifications of protein samples. However, not all mass shifts detected using the open search strategy represent true modifications, as artifacts exist from sources such as unaccounted missed cleavages or peptide co-fragmentation (chimeric MS/MS spectra). Here, we present Crystal-C, a computational tool that detects and removes such artifacts from open search results. Our analysis using Crystal-C shows that, in a typical shotgun proteomics data set, the number of such observations is relatively small. Nevertheless, removing these artifacts helps to simplify the interpretation of the mass shift histograms, which in turn should improve the ability of open search-based tools to detect potentially interesting mass shifts for follow-up investigation.

Abstract
We undertook a comprehensive proteogenomic characterization of 95 prospectively collected endometrial carcinomas, comprising 83 endometrioid and 12 serous tumors. This analysis revealed possible new consequences of perturbations to the p53 and Wnt/β-catenin pathways, identified a potential role for circRNAs in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and provided new information about proteomic markers of clinical and genomic tumor subgroups, including relationships to known druggable pathways. An extensive genome-wide acetylation survey yielded insights into regulatory mechanisms linking Wnt signaling and histone acetylation. We also characterized aspects of the tumor immune landscape, including immunogenic alterations, neoantigens, common cancer/testis antigens, and the immune microenvironment, all of which can inform immunotherapy decisions. Collectively, our multi-omic analyses provide a valuable resource for researchers and clinicians, identify new molecular associations of potential mechanistic significance in the development of endometrial cancers, and suggest novel approaches for identifying potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Abstract
The discovery of extensive transcription of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) provide an important new perspective on the centrality of RNA in gene regulation. I will discuss genome-scale strategies to discover and characterize lncRNAs, including RNA chemical modifications and RNA structures. LncRNAs form extensive networks of ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes with numerous chromatin regulators, and target these enzymatic activities to appropriate locations in the genome. Long noncoding RNAs can function as modular scaffolds to specify higher order organization in RNP complexes and in chromatin states. A new emerging theme is that DNA elements that mediate lncRNA expression can also have powerful effects in controlling chromatin neighborhoods, which alter oncogene expression and activity. The importance of these modes of regulation is underscored by the newly recognized roles of long RNAs in human diseases.

Abstract
To elucidate the deregulated functional modules that drive clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), we performed comprehensive genomic, epigenomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, and phosphoproteomic characterization of treatment-naive ccRCC and paired normal adjacent tissue samples. Genomic analyses identified a distinct molecular subgroup associated with genomic instability. Integration of proteogenomic measurements uniquely identified protein dysregulation of cellular mechanisms impacted by genomic alterations, including oxidative phosphorylation-related metabolism, protein translation processes, and phospho-signaling modules. To assess the degree of immune infiltration in individual tumors, we identified microenvironment cell signatures that delineated four immune-based ccRCC subtypes characterized by distinct cellular pathways. This study reports a large-scale proteogenomic analysis of ccRCC to discern the functional impact of genomic alterations and provides evidence for rational treatment selection stemming from ccRCC pathobiology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS This study examined the association between macronutrient intake at different times of the day and blood lipid levels. METHODS AND RESULTS The study was based on the Nutrition and Health Survey in Taiwan, a cross-sectional study of non-institutionalized and non-pregnant healthy adults (≥19-years-old). A one-day (24 h) dietary recall assessed participants' food intake. Fasting plasma triglycerides, total cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol were determined. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol was estimated based on the Friedewald formula. According to the data of eligible subjects (n = 1283), the time of energy intake was categorized into three meal times 0500-0929 (morning), 1130-1329 (noon), and 1730-2029 (evening), along with three snack times 0930-1129 (mid-morning), 1330-1729 (afternoon), and 2030-0459 (night). Energy and macronutrient intake were calculated for the 6 time periods, based on 24 h recall data. An adjusted regression model showed that by transferring 100 kcal intake at night to the morning or noon, LDL cholesterol would be lower by 1.46 (95% CI: 2.42-0.50) and 1.27 mg/dL (95% CI: 2.24-0.30), respectively. Transferring 100 kcal of fat intake at night to earlier periods was associated with a lower LDL cholesterol level, especially transferring to noontime (significantly lower by 5.21 mg/dL, 95% CI: [7.42-2.99]) and evening (significantly lower by 3.19 mg/dL, 95% CI: [6.29-0.08]). CONCLUSIONS Total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol had the same pattern of association with the timing of energy intake. The study showed that elevated total and LDL cholesterol were positively associated with nighttime energy and fat intake.

Abstract
Accumulating studies have suggested that microRNA play a part in regulating multiple cellular processes, such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, the cell cycle, and embryo development. This study explored the effects of miR-101-2 on donor cell physiological status and the development of Holstein cow somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) embryos in vitro. Holstein cow bovine fetal fibroblasts (BFF) overexpressing miR-101-2 were used as donor cells to perform SCNT; then, cleavage rate, blastocyst rate, inner cell mass-to-trophectoderm ratio, and the expression of some development- and apoptosis-related genes in different groups were analyzed. The miR-101-2 suppressed the expression of inhibitor of growth protein 3 (ING3) at mRNA and protein levels, expedited cell proliferation, and decreased apoptosis in BFF, suggesting that ING3, a target gene of miR-101-2, is a potential player in this process. Moreover, by utilizing donor cells overexpressing miR-101-2, the development of bovine SCNT embryos in vitro was significantly enhanced; the apoptotic rate in SCNT blastocysts was reduced, and the inner cell mass-to-trophectoderm ratio and SOX2, POU5F1, and BCL2L1 expression significantly increased, whereas BAX and ING3 expression decreased. Collectively, these findings suggest that miR-101-2 promotes BFF proliferation and vitality, reduces their apoptosis, and improves the early development of SCNT embryos.

Abstract
The mortality prediction models for the general diabetic population have been well established, but the corresponding elderly-specific model is still lacking. This study aims to develop a mortality prediction model for the elderly with diabetes. The data used for model establishment were derived from the nationwide adult health screening program in Taiwan in 2007-2010, from which we applied a 10-fold cross-validation method for model construction and internal validation. The external validation was tested on the MJ health screening database collected in 2004-2007. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models were used to predict five-year mortality for diabetic patients ≥65 years. A total of 220,832 older subjects with diabetes were selected for model construction, of whom 23,241 (10.5%) died by the end of follow-up (December 31, 2011). The significant predictors retained in the final model included age, gender, smoking status, body mass index (BMI), fasting glucose, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, leukocyte count, liver and renal function, total cholesterol, hemoglobin, albumin, and uric acid. The Harrell's C in the development, internal-, and external-validation datasets were 0.737, 0.746, and 0.685, respectively. We established an easy-to-use point-based model that could accurately predict five-year mortality risk in older adults with diabetes.

Abstract
Perovskite solar cells have drawn much attention and achieved efficiencies over 22%, but relatively little is known about the long-term stability under photovoltaic operation. So far, stability studies have reported about the importance of degradation of each layer, but little to no consideration has been given to the whole device architecture. We investigated the stability of perovskite solar cells in order to fundamentally understand the mechanism behind efficiency improvement/degradation during device operation. We found that during operation the interfaces of the perovskite and the electron-transport layer (ETL), meso-porous TiO2, further intermix with each other, which leads to improved power conversion efficiency (PCE) during the initial operation of these solar cells. The operation-induced structural changes are examined directly by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) with in situ low-energy Ar+ sputtering and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) with C60 sputtering. In addition, this study describes that the primary cause of irreversible degradation during operation is due to the expansion of TiO2 and ion migration throughout the perovskite solar cell.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Reducing overuse of tests such as dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans in younger women is an important quality issue. We evaluated trends in DXA ordering before and after Choosing Wisely recommendations were released. We found no significant difference in ordering trends suggesting that other initiatives are needed to change behavior. INTRODUCTION Reducing overuse of tests such as dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans in younger women is an important quality issue, but trends in care are difficult to change. We evaluated (1) trends in DXA ordering before and after the Choosing Wisely recommendation release and (2) patterns of key characteristics that indicate a potentially appropriate DXA scan order. METHODS We performed a retrospective longitudinal analysis of electronic health record data at a multi-specialty, ambulatory care network of 34 practices across Maryland and Washington, DC. Since the Choosing Wisely DXA recommendation was released April 2012, the study periods were April-December 2011 (pre-initiative) and April-December 2012 (post-initiative). Women between 50 and 64 years with primary care encounters, and primary care providers who saw ten or more women in the study population in both pre and post periods were included. RESULTS For 42,320 eligible patients, the mean provider ordering rate was 2.6 % pre-initiative and 2.0 % post-initiative; there was no significant difference in trend over time. Over 70 % of the population had no characteristics associated with potentially appropriate DXA ordering. Low body mass index, current smoker status, and osteopenia were the most common characteristics indicating potentially appropriate DXA orders. Patients with any of these three characteristics had DXA ordering rates between 3-20 %. CONCLUSIONS The trend in provider ordering rates of DXA scans did not decrease after the release of the DXA Choosing Wisely recommendation. Targeted initiatives addressing providers with high ordering rates will be needed to change behavior.

Abstract
MAGIC-web is the first web server, to the best of our knowledge, that performs both untargeted and targeted analyses of mass spectrometry-based glycoproteomics data for site-specific N-linked glycoprotein identification. The first two modules, MAGIC and MAGIC+, are designed for untargeted and targeted analysis, respectively. MAGIC is implemented with our previously proposed novel Y1-ion pattern matching method, which adequately detects Y1- and Y0-ion without prior information of proteins and glycans, and then generates in silico MS2 spectra that serve as input to a database search engine (e.g. Mascot) to search against a large-scale protein sequence database. On top of that, the newly implemented MAGIC+ allows users to determine glycopeptide sequences using their own protein sequence file. The third module, Reports Integrator, provides the service of combining protein identification results from Mascot and glycan-related information from MAGIC-web to generate a complete site-specific protein-glycan summary report. The last module, Glycan Search, is designed for the users who are interested in finding possible glycan structures with specific numbers and types of monosaccharides. The results from MAGIC, MAGIC+ and Reports Integrator can be downloaded via provided links whereas the annotated spectra and glycan structures can be visualized in the browser. MAGIC-web is accessible from http://ms.iis.sinica.edu.tw/MAGIC-web/index.html.

Abstract
Efficient and accurate quantitation of metabolites from LC-MS data has become an important topic. Here we present an automated tool, called iMet-Q (intelligent Metabolomic Quantitation), for label-free metabolomics quantitation from high-throughput MS1 data. By performing peak detection and peak alignment, iMet-Q provides a summary of quantitation results and reports ion abundance at both replicate level and sample level. Furthermore, it gives the charge states and isotope ratios of detected metabolite peaks to facilitate metabolite identification. An in-house standard mixture and a public Arabidopsis metabolome data set were analyzed by iMet-Q. Three public quantitation tools, including XCMS, MetAlign, and MZmine 2, were used for performance comparison. From the mixture data set, seven standard metabolites were detected by the four quantitation tools, for which iMet-Q had a smaller quantitation error of 12% in both profile and centroid data sets. Our tool also correctly determined the charge states of seven standard metabolites. By searching the mass values for those standard metabolites against Human Metabolome Database, we obtained a total of 183 metabolite candidates. With the isotope ratios calculated by iMet-Q, 49% (89 out of 183) metabolite candidates were filtered out. From the public Arabidopsis data set reported with two internal standards and 167 elucidated metabolites, iMet-Q detected all of the peaks corresponding to the internal standards and 167 metabolites. Meanwhile, our tool had small abundance variation (≤ 0.19) when quantifying the two internal standards and had higher abundance correlation (≥ 0.92) when quantifying the 167 metabolites. iMet-Q provides user-friendly interfaces and is publicly available for download at http://ms.iis.sinica.edu.tw/comics/Software_iMet-Q.html.

Abstract
We aimed at observing the effects of high thoracic epidural anesthesia (HTEA) on cardiac structure and function, heart rate variability (HRV), and QT interval variation (QTV) in ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) patients with chronic heart failure. We divided 30 ICM patients into HTEA (N = 16) and control (N = 14) groups.The control group was treated with medication, and the HTEA group was treated with HTEA and medication for 4 weeks. We measured the changes in the left-ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDd) and left-ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) before and after treatment by using echocardiography and examined changes in HRV and QTV using ambulatory electrocardiogram. HTEA significantly narrowed the LVEDd, improved LVEF, significantly increased the HRV, and significantly reduced the QTV in the ICM group compared to the control group. HTEA significantly narrowed the ventricular chamber diameter size of ICM patients, enhanced myocardial contractility, increased myocardial electrical stability, and improved the cardiac structure and function.

Abstract
AIMS Serum ferritin has been found closely related with diabetes and glucose metabolism, but its impact on diabetic nephropathy remains unknown. This study aimed to explore the association between serum ferritin and microalbuminuria in Type 2 diabetes. METHODS Eight hundred and fifty-one subjects with Type 2 diabetes were selected from a cohort participating in a glycaemic control study in Taiwan in 2008. We used urine albumin:creatinine ratio to define microalbuminuria; serum ferritin was divided into quartiles for analysis. Logistic regression and trend tests were used to delineate the association between serum ferritin and microalbuminuria. RESULTS Subjects with diabetes with higher ferritin tended to have more metabolic disorders, higher high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and higher prevalence of microalbuminuria. Compared with those in the lowest quartile, subjects with diabetes in the highest ferritin quartile were 55% (P = 0.029) more likely to have microalbuminuria. After controlling for demographics, metabolic profiles and other inflammatory markers, the association between serum ferritin levels and microalbuminuria remained significant (P for trend < 0.001). This independent relationship was not changed either for those who had better glycaemic control or those who had not used an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker. CONCLUSIONS The current study shows hyperferritinemia may be an independent risk factor of nephropathy in patients with Type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
The reproductive biology of female bigeye tuna Thunnus obesus was assessed by examining 888 fish (ranging from 84·9 to 174·4 cm fork length, LF ) caught by Taiwanese offshore longliners in the western Pacific Ocean from November 1997 to November 1998 and November to December 1999 and 258 gonad samples from these fish. The overall sex ratio of the catch during the sampling differed significantly from 0·5, but males were predominant in sizes >140 cm LF . Reproductive activity (assessed by histology), a gonado-somatic index, and the size-frequency distributions of whole oocytes indicated that spawning occurred throughout the year and the major spawning season appeared to be from February to September. The estimated sizes at 50% maturity (LF50 ) of females was 102·85 cm (95% c.i.: 90·79-110·21 cm) and the smallest mature female was 99·7 cm LF . They are multiple spawners and oocytes develop asynchronously. The proportion of mature (0·63) and reproductively active (0·70) females with ovaries containing postovulatory follicles indicated that they spawn almost daily. Batch fecundity for 15 females with the most advanced oocytes (>730 µm) ranged from 0·84 to 8·56 million eggs (mean ± s.d. = 3·06 ± 2·09). The relationships between batch fecundity (FB , in millions of eggs) and LF (cm) and round mass (MR , kg) were FB=9·91×10-14LF6·38 (r(2) = 0·84) and FB=8·89×10-4MR2·05 (r(2) = 0·80), respectively. The parameters estimated in this study are key information for stock assessments of T. obesus in the western Pacific Ocean and will contribute to the conservation and sustainable yield of this species.

Abstract
As there is a lack of error correction mechanisms during RNA replication, foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) has a very high mismatch rate, which leads to a high mutation rate, in the range of 10(-3) to 10(-5) per nucleotide site per genome replication. We examined the nucleotide mismatch of FMDV during replication, based on the whole genomes of the 7 serotypes retrieved from NCBI. With the Mega bio-software, SPSS, and Microsoft Excel, we studied the nucleotide differences compared to the sequence in the RefSeq database, and developed two probable mutation models, i.e., once mutation model and complication mutation model. Further analysis on the nucleotide mismatch during replication was made. We found that FMDV share similar difference rates between nucleotide and reverse differences, for example the mutation U→C and C→U. We also found that each nucleotide has its domain mismatch, and the virus kept a constant nucleotide composition during mutations.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS HbA(1c) variability has been shown to be an independent risk factor for nephropathy in patients with type 1 diabetes. In this study, we aimed to explore the association between HbA(1c) variability and microalbuminuria development in patients with type 2 diabetes. We also intended to test the applicability of serially measured HbA(1c) over 2 years for this risk assessment. METHODS Between 2003 and 2005, we recruited 821 middle-aged normoalbuminuric individuals with type 2 diabetes and followed them through to the end of 2010. The average follow-up time was 6.2 years. We defined microalbuminuria as a urine albumin to creatinine ratio of 30 mg/g (3.4 mg/mmol) or higher. HbA(1c) variability was calculated by the SD of serially measured HbA(1c). The Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the association between HbA(1c) SD quartile and development of microalbuminuria. RESULTS The incidence of microalbuminuria for the overall population was 58.4, 58.6, 60.8 and 91.9 per 1,000 person-years for Q1- to Q4-adjusted HbA(1c) SD, respectively (p for trend = 0.042). Compared with patients in Q1, those in Q4 were about 37% more likely to develop microalbuminuria. The HR derived from a series of 2 year HbA(1c) measurements was similar to that from data collection for longer than 4 years. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION In addition to mean HbA(1c) values, HbA(1c) variability, even measured as early as 2 years, is independently associated with the development of microalbuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis) seriously affects efficiency of animal production with impacts on public health as well. Effective programmes of prevention and eradication of M. bovis infection therefore are urgently needed. Intracellular pathogen resistance gene 1 (Ipr1) is well known to mediate innate immunity to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), but there are no reports as to whether Ipr1 can enhance the phagocytic ability of macrophage against M. bovis. In this investigation, RAW 264.7 macrophage was transduced with lentiviral vector carrying Ipr1 (named Lenti-Ipr1); transgenic cells were identified by RT-PCR and western blotting. Transgenic positive cells (R-Ipr1) were then infected with an M. bovis virulent strain, with non-transduced cells used as control. When cell proliferation, viability and apoptosis of the two groups were investigated, it was found that infected RAW 264.7 died by necrosis whereas R-Ipr1 underwent apoptosis. Furthermore, the numbers of intracellular bacteria in R-Ipr1 were lower than those in control cells (P < 0.05). To identify the role of Ipr1, we measured the genes of Casp3, Mcl-1 and NOS2A which associated with macrophage activation and apoptosis by real-time quantitative PCR. The results demonstrated that Ipr1 gene expression can enhance anti-M. bovis infection of macrophage. This establishes a basis for the future production of Ipr1-transgenic cattle to strengthen the tuberculosis resistance.

Abstract
Since large-scale reports of pulmonary infarction in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are limited, a retrospective study was performed for this manifestation in 773 hospitalized patients in southern Taiwan from 1999 to 2009. Pulmonary infarction was defined as the presence of pulmonary embolism, persistent pulmonary infiltrates, and characteristic clinical symptoms. Demographic, clinical, laboratory, and radiological images data were analyzed. There were 12 patients with pulmonary embolism and 9 of them had antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). Six patients (19 to 53 years, average 38.2 ± 12.6) with 9 episodes of lung infarction were identified. All cases were APS and four episodes had coincidental venous thromboembolism. There were four episodes of bilateral infarction and seven episodes of larger central pulmonary artery embolism. Heparin therapy was routinely prescribed and thrombolytic agents were added in two episodes. Successful recovery was noted in all patients. In conclusion, there was a 0.8% incidence of pulmonary infarction in patients with SLE, all with the risk factor of APS. Differentiation between pulmonary infarction and pneumonia in lupus patients should be made; they have similar chest radiography with lung consolidation but require a different clinical approach in management. Although this report is a retrospective study with relatively small numbers of lupus patients with lung infarcts, our observation might provide beneficial information on the clinical features and radiological presentations during the disease evolution of pulmonary infarction in SLE with APS.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in women worldwide. Although chemotherapy is effective, resistance to drugs develops over time and can account for treatment failure in over 90% of metastatic breast cancer patients. HOX genes are homeobox-containing transcription factors well-known for their role in morphogenesis. However, accumulating evidence has emphasized their importance during carcinogenesis and metastasis. The goal of this study is to understand the role of HOXC10 in breast cancer and the consequence of its overexpression in conferring chemotherapy resistance.
Methods: We conducted a tiling array of all four HOX clusters to identify dysregulated HOX genes in a panel of primary and metastatic breast cancer tissues, and validated the overexpression of HOXC10 in metastatic breast cancer. Next we established cell lines that stably overexpress HOXC10 and others where endogenously overexpressed HOXC10 was silenced by shRNAs, and determined phenotypic and biochemical changes resulting from these manipulations.
Results: HOXC10 is overexpressed in 67% of primary breast tumors (n=31), in 82% of the metastatic tissues (n=49) and in most breast cancer cell lines. When compared to cancers at other sites, overexpression tends to be significantly higher in breast cancer, and correlates with increasing grade and tumor size. Cell survival assays (MTT and colony formation) after drug treatment show that overexpression of exogenous HOXC10 in MCF10A conferred drug resistance. Further molecular examination revealed that overexpression of HOXC10 led to a dysregulation in the Rb-E2F pathway, and therefore the G1/S checkpoint was affected. In addition, the tendency for the formation of 8N cells and the concomitant protection from apoptosis suggested that HOXC10 overexpression might lead to genomic endoreduplication and instability. This fact along with the strikingenhanced recovery of the cells from pactitaxel treatment (as compared to the recovery from any other chemotherapeutic drug) and the protection from mitotic catastrophe implied a role of HOXC10 in the mitotic checkpoint. This was confirmed by a dysregulation of the expression of the genes involved in this checkpoint. All these experiments were further validated by stably expressing a shRNA to HOXC10 in SUM159 breast cancer cells with high endogenous HOXC10 levels. Conclusion: Our studies show for the first time that HOXC10, a homeobox protein previously shown to be regulated during the cell cycle and to have a positive effect on proliferation, is overexpressed in the majority of breast cancers. This upregulation may have some clinical implications since cells with higher expression of HOXC10 tend to have more invasive properties, more genomic instability, and are more resistant to some chemotherapy drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Little has been published on changes in young driver fatality rates over time. This paper examines differences in Australian young driver fatality rates over the last decade, examining important risk factors including place of residence and socioeconomic status (SES). METHODS Young driver (17-25years) police-recorded passenger vehicle crashes were extracted from New South Wales State records from 1997-2007. Rurality of residence and SES were classified into three levels based on drivers' residential postcode: urban, regional, or rural; and high, moderate, or low SES areas. Geographic and SES disparities in trends of fatality rates were examined by the generalized linear model. Chi-square trend test was used to examine the distributions of posted speed limits, drinking driving, fatigue, seatbelt use, vehicle age, night-time driving, and the time from crash to death across rurality and socioeconomic status. RESULTS Young driver fatality rate significantly decreased 5% per year (p<0.05); however, stratified analyses (by rurality and by SES) showed that only the reduction among urban drivers was significant (average 5% decrease per year, p<0.01). The higher relative risk of fatality for rural versus urban drivers, and for drivers of low versus high SES remained unchanged over the last decade. High posted speed limits, fatigue, drink driving and seatbelt non-use were significantly associated with rural fatalities, whereas high posted speed limit, fatigue, and driving an older vehicle were significantly related to low SES fatality. CONCLUSION The constant geographic and SES disparities in young driver fatality rates highlight safety inequities for those living in rural areas and those of low SES. Better targeted interventions are needed, including attention to behavioral risk factors and vehicle age.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this article was to explore overall crash and injury trends over the past decade for young drivers residing in New South Wales (NSW), Australia, including gender and age disparities. METHODS Passenger vehicle crashes for drivers aged 17-25 occurring during 1997-2007 were extracted from the state crash database to calculate crash rates (per licensed driver). Generalized linear models were used to examine crash trends over time by severity of driver injury, adjusting for age, gender, rurality of residence, and socioeconomic status. Yearly adjusted relative risks of crash by gender and by age group were also examined over the study period. RESULTS Young driver noninjury and fatality rates significantly decreased by an average of 4 percent (95% CI: 4-5) and 5 percent (95% CI: 0-9) respectively each year from 1997 to 2007. Young driver injury rates significantly increased by about 12 percent (95% CI: 9-14) to the year 2001 and then significantly decreased. The relative risk of crash (regardless of driver injury) for males compared to females significantly decreased over time. Compared to drivers aged 21-25, drivers aged 17 and particularly 18- to 20-year-olds had significantly and consistently higher crash risks across the study period. CONCLUSIONS Overall, there has been a significant decline in young driver crashes in NSW over the last decade. Regardless of injury severity, males' risk of crash has reduced more than female young drivers, but drivers aged 17 continue to be at higher risk. These findings provide feedback on potential road safety successes and areas needing specific interventions for future improvements.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate whether health-related quality of life (HRQOL) predicts hospital admission in a nationally representative sample of adults with diabetes. METHODS We conducted a prospective study on persons aged > or = 18 years with self-reported physician-diagnosed diabetes (n = 797) who participated in the National Health Interview Survey in Taiwan, 2001. Of these potential participants, 674 provided consent for data linkage and were successfully linked to the National Health Insurance claims data. We analysed the associations between the Short Form 36 (SF-36) subscales and summaries and the occurrence of hospital admission for any cause during 2002. RESULTS Approximately 23% of participants with diabetes had at least one hospital admission during 2002. After adjusting for demographic characteristics, co-morbidities and diabetics-related attributes, those who had been admitted to hospital had significantly poorer mean scores on each of the physical dimensions, physical components summary (PCS) and social functioning domain of the SF-36 at baseline. In logistic regression models, poorer scores on the PCS [odds ratio (OR) = 1.80; 95% confidence interval (CI) = (1.14-2.86)], duration of diabetes > or = 10 years [OR = 2.10; 95% CI = (1.14-3.89)] and the presence of heart disease [OR = 1.63; 95% CI = (1.01-2.63)] were significantly associated with an increased risk of hospital admission. CONCLUSION In people with diabetes, poorer scores on the PCS of the SF-36 at baseline may provide additional information for assessment of hospital admission risk, independent of other measures of health outcomes.

Abstract
The expression and immune modulation of Epstein-Barr virus-encoded oncogene latent membrane protein 1 (N-LMP1) is essential in the pathogenesis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. In previous studies, cell transformation has been induced by the expression of EBV-encoded N-LMP1 in non-tumour BALB/c-3T3 cells and these cells have then been used to form tumours in T-cell-deficient nude mice. However, studies using this model have been limited by the lack of a competent immune system. To facilitate the study of immune components in N-LMP1-driven oncogenesis, we herein developed a simplified N-LMP1-derived tumour model in immunocompetent mice. Cell transformation was induced by the expression of N-LMP1 in BALB/c-3T3 cells, and these transformants were used to induce oncogenesis in BALB/c mice. In contrast to the 100% successful tumour-induction rate in nude mice treated with monodispersed transformed cells, the tumour incidence in BALB/c mice was only 5-36%. However, the transplantation of tumour fragments into BALB/c mice yielded a reproducible tumour-induction rate of >85%, which is acceptable for most of the research needs. This novel model of N-LMP1-directed oncogenesis in an immunocompetent environment may serve as an important platform for the future assessment of N-LMP1-targeted tumour therapies.

Abstract
It is generally agreed that, for a given handwriting recognition task, a user dependent system usually outperforms a user independent system, as long as a sufficient amount of training data is available. When the amount of user training data is limited, however, such a performance gain is not guaranteed. One way to improve the performance is to make use of existing knowledge, contained in a rich multiuser data base, so that a minimum amount of training data is sufficient to initialize a model for the new user.We mainly address the user adaption issues for a handwriting recognition system. Based on self-growing probabilistic decision-based neural networks (SPDNNs), user adaptation of the parameters of SPDNN is formulated as incremental reinforced and antireinforced learning procedures, which are easily integrated into the batched training procedures of the SPDNN. In this study, we developed 1) an SPDNN based handwriting recognition system; 2) a two-stage recognition structure; and 3) a three-phase training methodology for a) a global coarse classifier (stage 1); b) a user independent hand written character recognizer (stage 2); and c) a user adaptation module on a personal computer. With training and testing on a 600-word commonly used Chinese character set, the recognition results indicate that the user adaptation module significantly improved the recognition accuracy. The average recognition rate increased from 44.2% to 82.4% in five adapting cycles, and the performance could finally increase up to 90.2% in ten adapting cycles.

Abstract
Every year, a vaccination against Influenza B virus (IBV) is essential due to an antigenic variation. Development of an efficient and convenient vaccine is important for the prevention of viral infection. This study reports examination of the protective immunity in mice evoked by a single inoculation of plasmid DNA expressing hemagglutinin (HA DNA) or neuraminidase (NA DNA) of IBV. The HA DNA or NA DNA was injected intramuscularly into BALB/c mice separately or as a mixture. The injection of plasmid was followed by an electroporation close to the site of puncture. Four weeks later, the immunized mice were challenged with a lethal dose of IBV. The protective abilities of DNA vaccines were evaluated by the detection of specific antibodies in serum, survival rate, virus titer in lungs, and change of body weight. We found that a single dose of HA DNA or NA DNA induced the formation of specific antibodies and conferred effective protection against the lethal challenge of IBV. However, the combined vaccine HA DNA and NA DNA enhanced the protective ability of immunized mice. The obtained results suggested that immunization with single dose of HA DNA, NA DNA or with combination of both could be an efficient method for preventing IBV infection.

Abstract
Lead zirconate titanate (Pb(1.1)(Zr(0.52)Ti(0.48))O(3)) thin films of thickness 260 nm on Pt/Ti/SiO(2)/Si substrates were densified by 2.45 GHz microwave annealing. The PZT thin films were annealed at various annealing temperatures from 400 to 700 °C for 30 min. X-ray diffraction showed that the pyrochlore phase was transformed to the perovskite phase at 450 °C and the film was fully crystallized. The secondary (again pyrochlore) phase was observed in the PZT thin films, which were annealed above 550 °C. The surface morphologies were changed above 550 °C of the PZT thin films due to the secondary phase. Higher dielectric constant (ε(r)) and lower dielectric loss coercive field (E(c)) were achieved for the 450 °C film than for the other annealed films.

Abstract
PTEN, encoding a lipid phosphatase, is a tumor suppressor gene and is mutated in various types of cancers. It is reported to regulate G1 to S phase transition of the cell cycle by influencing the expression, protein stability and subcellular location of cyclin D1. Here, we provide evidence that PTEN modulates the transcription and protein stability of cyclin D2. Targeted deletion of Pten in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) endowed cells with greater potential to overcome G1 arrest than wild-type MEFs and led to the elevated expression of cyclin D2, which was suppressed by the introduction of PTEN. We further defined a pathway involving GSK3beta and beta-catenin/TCF in PTEN-mediated suppression of cyclin D2 transcription. LiCl, an inhibitor of GSK3beta, abolished inhibitory effect of PTEN on cyclin D2 expression, and TCF members could directly bind to the promoter of cyclin D2 and regulate its transcription in a CREB-dependent manner. Our results indicate that the downregulation of cyclin D2 expression by PTEN is mediated by the GSK3beta/beta-catenin/TCF pathway in cooperation with CREB, and suggest a convergence from the PI-3 kinase/PTEN pathway and the Wnt pathway in modulation of cyclin D2 expression.

Abstract
The synaptic machinery for neurotransmitter storage is cell-type specific. Although most elements of biosynthesis and transport have been identified, it remains unclear whether additional factors may be required to maintain this specificity. The Drosophila serotonin transporter (dSERT) is normally expressed exclusively in serotonin (5-HT) neurons in the CNS. Here we examine the effects of ectopic transcriptional expression of dSERT in the Drosophila larval CNS. We find a surprising limitation on 5-HT storage following ectopic expression of dSERT and green fluorescence protein-tagged dSERT (GFP-dSERT). When dSERT transcription is driven ectopically in the CNS, 5-HT is detectable only in 5-HT, dopamine (DA), and a very limited number of additional neurons. Addition of exogenous 5-HT does not dramatically broaden neuronal storage sites, so this limitation is only partly due to restricted intercellular diffusion of 5-HT. Furthermore, this limitation is not due to gross mislocalization of dSERT, because cells lacking or containing 5-HT show similar levels and subcellular distribution of GFP-dSERT protein, nor is it due to lack of the vesicular transporter, dVMAT. These data suggest that a small number of neurons selectively express factor(s) required for 5-HT storage, and potentially for function of dSERT.

Abstract
CA 125, a glycoprotein derived from coelomic epithelium, is used primarily as a marker of epithelial ovarian cancer. However, elevated levels of serum CA 125 have also been detected in other benign and malignant disorders. This study describes a haemodialysis patient who contracted tuberculous peritonitis associated with hypercalcaemia, erythropoietin-resistant anaemia and elevated CA 125, which normalised gradually following antituberculosis treatment. Tuberculous peritonitis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of ascites with elevated serum CA 125. Additionally, CA 125 is a useful marker for monitoring response to tuberculous peritonitis treatment.

Abstract
Thromboembolic complications, frequently associated with idiopathic membranous glomerulonephritis, are frequent and serious problems associated with nephrotic syndrome. However, ovarian vein thrombosis associated with nephrotic syndrome has never been reported. This study describes the case of a 35-year-old woman with idiopathic membranous glomerulonephritis who developed left renal vein thrombosis with ovarian vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. The thromboembolic complications were successfully treated with low-molecular-weight heparin. Low-molecular-weight heparin thus appears safe and effective for treating thromboembolism in nephrotic patients.

Abstract
The disadvantages of developed biological nutrient removal (BNR) processes (additional energy for liquid circulation and addition of external carbon substrate for denitrification in anoxic zones) were improved by reconfiguring the process into (1) an anaerobic zone followed by multiple stages of aerobic-anoxic zones (TNCU3 process) or (2) anaerobic, oxic, anoxic, oxic zones in sequence (TNCU2 process). These two pilot plants were operated at a recycling sludge ratio of 0.5 without internal recycle of nitrified supernatant. The sludge retention time was maintained at 10 d. The main objective of this study is to analyze the kinetics of different microorganisms in these two processes and A2O process by using the Activated Sludge Model No. 2d. The effective removal efficiency of carbon, total phosphorus and total nitrogen at 87-98%, 92-100% and 63-80%, respectively, were achieved in the testing runs. According to model simulations, the microbial kinetics in the TNCU3 and TNCU2 processes would be affected by different operations. When the step feeding strategy was adopted, the HRT was longer due to the less influent flowrate in the front stages and the microbes would grow in quantities by about 6% in the aerobic reactors. In the followed anoxic reactors, the microbes would decrease in quantities by about 12% due to the dilution effect. The dilution effects in TNCU3 and TNCU2 processes did not take place in A2O process because the recycling mixed liquid from the aerobic reactor to the anoxic reactor still contained particulate components. The XH, XPAO, and XAUT concentrations in the effluent of the last tank were lower when the step-feeding mode was adopted. The TNCU3 and TNCU2 processes could be operated efficiently without nitrified liquid circulation and addition of external carbon substrate for denitrification.
