Abstract
Microvascular invasion (MVI) is an independent predictor of early recurrence and poor prognosis following hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) resection and transplantation. As a novel non-invasive diagnostic tool, radiomics can extract the quantitative imaging features of tumors and peritumoral tissues with high throughput, providing more information on tumor heterogeneity than conventional and functional imaging of visual analysis and having a good application prospect in predicting the presence of MVI in HCC patients, thereby improving the accuracy of HCC diagnosis and prognosis. The value of the multimodal radiomics method based on various imaging methods in evaluating the possibility of MVI in HCC patients is elucidated here in combination with the latest research progress.

Abstract
Kitagawia Pimenov is one of the segregate genera of Peucedanum sensu lato within the Apiaceae. The phylogenetic position and morphological delimitation of Kitagawia have been controversial. In this study, we used plastid genome (plastome) and nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA) sequences to reconstruct the phylogeny of Kitagawia, along with comparative plastome and morphological analyses between Kitagawia and related taxa. The phylogenetic results identified that all examined Kitagawia species were divided into Subclade I and Subclade II within the tribe Selineae, and they were all distant from the representative members of Peucedanum sensu stricto. The plastomes of Kitagawia and related taxa showed visible differences in the LSC/IRa junction (JLA) and several hypervariable regions, which separated Subclade I and Subclade II from other taxa. Fruit anatomical and micromorphological characteristics, as well as general morphological characteristics, distinguished the four Kitagawia species within Subclade I from Subclade II and other related genera. This study supported the separation of Kitagawia from Peucedanum sensu lato, confirmed that Kitagawia belongs to Selineae, and two species (K. praeruptora and K. formosana) within Subclade II should be placed in a new genus. We believe that the "core" Kitagawia should be limited to Subclade I, and this genus can be distinguished by the association of a series of morphological characteristics. Overall, our study provides new insights into the phylogeny, plastome evolution, and taxonomy of Kitagawia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The genus Seseli L., which consists of 125-140 species distributed in the Old World from western Europe and northwestern Africa to China and Japan, is one of the largest and most taxonomically difficult genera of Apiaceae Lindl. Although several previous studies have been conducted on Seseli based on limited morphological characteristics and molecular fragments, a robust and comprehensive phylogeny of Seseli remains elusive. Plastomes provide abundant genetic information and have been widely used in studying plant phylogeny and evolution. Consequently, we newly generated the complete plastomes of eleven Seseli taxa. We combined plastome data and morphological characteristics to investigate the phylogeny of Seseli. RESULTS In our study, we observed that the genome length, gene numbers, IR/SC borders, and repeat composition of the eleven Seseli plastomes were variable. Several appropriate mutation hotspot regions may be developed as candidate DNA barcodes for evolution, phylogeny, and species identification of Seseli. The phylogenetic results identified that Seseli was not a monophyletic group. Moreover, the eleven newly sequenced Seseli taxa did not cluster with S. tortuosum (the type species of Seseli, belonging to the tribe Selineae), where S. delavayi clustered with Eriocycla belonging to the tribe Echinophoreae and the other ten belonged to Selineae. The comparative plastome and morphological characteristics analyses confirmed the reliability of the phylogenetic analyses and implied the complex evolution of Seseli. CONCLUSION Combining molecular and morphological data is efficient and useful for studying the phylogeny of Seseli. We suggest that "a narrow sense" of Seseli will be meaningful for further study and the current taxonomic system of Seseli needs to be revised. In summary, our study can provide new insights into the phylogenetic relationships and taxonomic framework of Seseli.

Abstract
The liver imaging reporting and data system (LI-RADS) is an imaging assessment system that standardizes the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), indicating the benign and malignant tumor through categories as well as major and ancillary features. The higher the LI-RADS category ranking, the higher the corresponding HCC likelihood and malignancy risk. Therefore, early diagnosis and prediction of the prognostic risk factors of liver tumors by preoperative imaging have important clinical significance for improving the survival rate and prognosis of patients. This article reviews the research progress of LI-RADS categories and related imaging features in predicting the prognosis of liver tumors.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the safety and effectiveness of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for oligometastases from colorectal cancer (CRC). Methods: This is a prospective, single-arm phase Ⅱ trial. Patients who had histologically proven CRC, 1 to 5 detectable liver or lung metastatic lesions with maximum diameter of any metastases ≤5 cm were eligible. SBRT was delivered to all lesions. The primary endpoint was 3-year local control (LC). The secondary endpoints were treatment-related acute toxicities of grade 3 and above, 1-year and 3-year overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS). Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method and Log rank test. Results: Petients from 2016 to 2019 who were treated in Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College. Forty-eight patients with 60 lesions were enrolled, including 37 liver lesions and 23 lung lesions. Forty-six patients had 1 or 2 lesions, with median diameter of 1.3 cm, the median biologically effective dose (BED(10)) was 100.0 Gy. The median follow-up was 19.5 months for all lesions. Twenty-five lesions developed local failure, the median local progression free survival was 15 months. The 1-year LC, OS and PFS was 70.2% (95% CI, 63.7%~76.7%), 89.0% (95% CI, 84.3%~93.7%) and 40.4% (95%CI, 33.0%~47.8%). The univariate analysis revealed that planning target volume (PTV) and total dose were independent prognostic factors of LC (P<0.05). For liver and lung lesions, the 1-year LC, OS and PFS was 58.7% and 89.4% (P=0.015), 89.3% and 86.5% (P=0.732), 30.5% and 65.6% (P=0.024), respectively. No patients developed acute toxicity of grade 3 and above. Conclusion: SBRT is safe and effective treatment method for oligometastases from CRC under precise respiratory motion management and robust quality assurance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Peucedanum genus is the backbone member of Apiaceae, with many economically and medically important plants. Although the previous studies on Peucedanum provide us with a good research basis, there are still unclear phylogenetic relationships and many taxonomic problems in Peucedanum, and a robust phylogenetic framework of this genus still has not been obtained, which severely hampers the improvement and revision of taxonomic system for this genus. The plastid genomes possessing more variable characters have potential for reconstructing a robust phylogeny in plants. RESULTS In the current study, we newly sequenced and assembled seven Peucedanum plastid genomes. Together with five previously published plastid genomes of Peucedanum, we performed a comprehensively comparative analyses for this genus. Twelve Peucedanum plastomes were similar in terms of genome structure, codon bias, RNA editing sites, and SSRs, but varied in genome size, gene content and arrangement, and border of SC/IR. Fifteen mutation hotspot regions were identified among plastid genomes that can serve as candidate DNA barcodes for species identification in Peucedanum. Our phylogenetic analyses based on plastid genomes generated a phylogeny with high supports and resolutions for Peucedanum that robustly supported the non-monophyly of genus Peucedanum. CONCLUSION The plastid genomes of Peucedanum showed both conservation and diversity. The plastid genome data were efficient and powerful for improving the supports and resolutions of phylogeny for the complex Peucedanum genus. In summary, our study provides new sights into the plastid genome evolution, taxonomy, and phylogeny for Peucedanum species.

Abstract
Alliumheterophyllum D.F.Xie & X.J.He, sp. nov. (Amaryllidaceae), is a new species from Henan, China and is described based on morphological and molecular evidence. It is morphologically most similar to A.dumebuchum in the rhomboid scape in cross-section. However, distinctive differences were detected in perianth color, leaf shape and cross-section, flowers' density as well as flowering season. Similarly, the karyotype of A.heterophyllum is 2n = 2x = 16 and in A.dumebuchum is 2n = 4x = 32. Phylogenetic analysis based on nuclear ribosomal Internal Transcribed Spacers (ITS) and three cpDNA regions strongly supports that A.heterophyllum is a member of Allium section Rhizirideum and sister to the other species of this section (e.g. A.senescens, A.spirale, and A.prostratum). Currently, only one population and approximately 120 individuals were discovered; the development of scenic spots in this region may affect its growth and threaten this population. Therefore, this new species is preliminarily considered as Near Threatened (NT) according to criteria of the IUCN Red List.

Abstract
Hepatic venous pressure gradient measurement via jugular vein catheterization is still currently the gold standard for evaluating portal hypertension. However, how to accurately and reproducibly assess whether there is portal hypertension has always been a concern in patients with liver cirrhosis. In recent years, imaging methods have made significant progress in the non-invasive diagnosis of portal hypertension. This paper reviews the current different diagnostic value of imaging methods and related research progress in an attempt to evaluate patients with cirrhotic portal hypertension.

Clinical classification (mild, moderate, severe, and critical) was carried out according to the diagnosis and treatment program of novel coronavirus pneumonia (Trial Fifth Edition) issued by the National Health Commission. The research data were analyzed using SPSS19.0 statistical software. Quantitative data were expressed as median (interquartile range), and qualitative data were expressed as frequency and rate. Results: 32 confirmed cases that met the inclusion criteria were included. 28 cases were of mild or moderate type (87.50%), and four cases (12.50%) of severe or critical type. Four cases (12.5%) were combined with one underlying disease (bronchial asthma, coronary heart disease, malignant tumor, chronic kidney disease), and one case (3.13%) was simultaneously combined with high blood pressure and malignant tumor. The results of laboratory examination showed that the alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), albumin (ALB), and total bilirubin (TBil) for entire cohort were 26.98 (16.88 ~ 46.09) U/L and 24.75 (18.71 ~ 31.79) U/L, 39.00 (36.20 ~ 44.20) g/L and 16.40 (11.34 ~ 21.15) μmol/L, respectively. ALT, AST, ALB and TBil of the mild or moderate subgroups were 22.75 (16.31 ~ 37.25) U/L, 23.63 (18.71 ~ 26.50) U/L, 39.70 (36.50 ~ 46.10) g/L, and 15.95 (11.34 ~ 20.83) μmol/L, respectively. ALT, AST, ALB and TBil of the severe or critical subgroups were 60.25 (40.88 ~ 68.90) U/L, 37.00 (20.88 ~ 64.45) U/L, 35.75 (28.68 ~ 42.00) g/L, and 20.50 (11.28 ~ 25.00) μmol/L, respectively. Conclusion: The results of this multicenter retrospective study suggests that novel coronavirus pneumonia combined with liver damage is more likely to be caused by adverse drug reactions and systemic inflammation in severe patients receiving medical treatment. Therefore, liver function monitoring and evaluation should be strengthened during the treatment of such patients.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the expression of gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor beta3 subunit (GABRB3) on cleft palate in C57BL/6J mice induced by 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo- p-dioxin (TCDD). Methods: Sixty C57BL/6J pregnant mice on gestation day (GD) 10.5 were divided into two groups: one group was administered through gastric tubes one dose of 28 μg/kg TCDD (experimental group) and the other group was administered through gastric tubes one dose of 5.6 ml/kg corn oil (control group). Embryos were removed by cesarean section from pregnant mice during the palatal formation stage (GD 13.5-17.5) and the palatal tissue studied in morphological and histological observation. The relative mRNA and protein expression of GABRB3 was measured by real-time quantitative PCR and Western blotting. Localization of GABRB3 protein was measured by immunohistochemistry or immunofluorescence. Results: The incidence of cleft palate at GD17.5 was 100% in experimental group and there was no cleft palate occurred in the control group (0); elevation of palatine processes in experimental group was completed on GD15.5 which was clearly delayed by a day compared with that in control group. On GD14.5-GD17.5, the mRNA expression (0.561±0.073, 0.728±0.104, 0.782±0.137, 0.686±0.145) and protein expression (0.288±0.013, 0.404±0.017, 0.399±0.012, 0.307±0.010) in the experimental group were significantly lower than the control group mRNA expression (0.818±0.088, 0.865±0.086, 1.021±0.054, 1.163±0.179) and protein expression (0.481±0.017, 0.456±0.009, 0.474±0.016, 0.529±0.015)(P<0.05). Immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence showed that GABRB3 was mainly expressed in the mesenchymal cells and medial edge epithelium. Conclusions: TCDD delayed palatal shelf elevation and eventually led to cleft palate may be associated with a decrease in GABRB3. GABRB3 may play an important role in the elevation and fusion phases of the palate development.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common malignant tumors of liver. Rational treatment in early stage of HCC can significantly increase the survival rate of patients. Detection of early-stage liver lesions through diffusion-weighted imaging, diffusion kurtosis imaging, incoherent motion within voxels, magnetic resonance spectroscopy imaging, dynamic contrast-enhanced imaging, or other functional imaging can accurately evaluate grade of malignancy and guide towards the curative effect of different treatment schemes. Volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination (VIBE) with three techniques, namely, CAIPIRINHA, Dixon, and TWIST, i.e., CDT-VIBE sequence can provide multiple sets of arterial phase images in a short time, and detect small foci transient enhancement that cannot be detected by other examinations, and the differences in initial enhancement phase of apparent lesions are of great significance for suggesting hemodynamic characteristics. In addition, magnetic resonance imaging predicts microvascular invasion of HCC, i.e., indirectly predicts HCC lesions recurrence rate, and overall survival time after liver transplantation. This article reviews the current research progress of magnetic resonance imaging technology in HCC.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the value of hepatic extracellular volume fractions (fECVs) measured using routine liver computed tomography (CT) evaluating liver fibrosis (LF). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 60 patients (male:female ratio, 39:21; mean age, 42.4 years) histologically diagnosed with LF underwent routine liver CT. Absolute enhancement (in Hounsfield units) of the liver parenchyma (Eliver) and aorta (Eaorta) 3 minutes after contrast medium administration was calculated using precontrast and equilibrium phase scans. The fECV was calculated using the following equation: fECV (%)=Eliver× (100 - haematocrit [%])/Eaorta. Correlation between fECV and LF stage was evaluated using the Spearman correlation coefficient. The fECVs were compared between each stage of LF. The diagnostic performance of fECV was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS The difference among the groups was statistically significant (p<0.05). The fECVs were significantly different (p<0.05) between F0 versus F4, F1 versus F4, and F2 versus F4. The fECVs showed a significant correlation with pathological LF staging (r=0.468, p=0.001). The sensitivity and specificity were 0.76 and 0.68 for severe LF (F≥3); and 0.89 and 0.63 for cirrhosis (F=4). The areas under the ROC curve (AUCs) for F≥3 and F=4 were 0.757 and 0.775, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Calculation of fECV during routine contrast-enhanced liver CT may provide a non-invasive means of assessing LF.
