Abstract
The aim of the study was to develop a new whole spinal MRI-based tumor burden scoring method in participants with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM) and to explore its prognostic significance. We prospectively recruited participants with newly diagnosed MM; performed whole spinal MRI (sagittal FSE T1WI, sagittal IDEAL T2WI, and axial FLAIR T2WI) on them; and collected their clinical data, early treatment response, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). We developed a new tumor burden scoring method according to the extent of bone marrow infiltration in five MRI patterns. All participants were divided into good response and poor response groups after four treatment cycles. Univariate, multivariate analyses, and ROC were used to determine the performance of independent predictors. Thresholds for PFS and OS were calculated using X-tile, and their prognostic significance were assessed by Kaplan-Meier. The Kruskal-Wallis H test was used to compare the differences of tumor burden score between the revised International Staging System (R-ISS) stages. The new tumor burden scoring method was used in 62 participants (median score, 12; range, 0-18). The tumor burden score (OR 1.266, p = 0.002) was an independent predictor of poor response and the AUC was 0.838. Higher tumor burden scores were associated with shorter PFS (p = 0.002) and OS (p = 0.011). The tumor burden score was higher in R-ISS-III than in R-ISS-I and R-ISS-II (p = 0.016 and p = 0.006, respectively). The tumor burden score was an excellent predictor of prognosis and may serve as a supplemental marker for R-ISS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The value of SyMRI-derived parameters from lumbar marrow for predicting early treatment response and optimizing the risk stratification of the Revised International Staging System (R-ISS) in participants with multiple myeloma (MM) is unknown. METHODS We prospectively enrolled participants with newly diagnosed MM before treatment. The SyMRI of lumbar marrow was used to calculate T1, T2, and PD values and the clinical features were collected. All participants were divided into good response (≥VGPR) and poor response ( RESULTS Fifty-nine participants (good response, n = 33; poor response, n = 26) were evaluated. The bone marrow plasma cell percentage, β2-microglobulin, T1 and T2 value were difference between two groups (all p < 0.05). The T1 (odds ratio 1.003, p = 0.005) and T2 values (odds ratio 0.910, p = 0.002) were independent predictors and the AUC and cut-off values were 0.787, 967.2 ms and 0.784, 75.9 ms, respectively. There were no significant differences in SyMRI parameters between genders. Participants with both T1 value ≥967.2 ms and T2 value ≤75.9 ms in the R-ISS II stage were potentially to get poor response. CONCLUSIONS Synthetic MRI is a promising tool for predicting early treatment response to MM and promoting R-ISS II stage risk stratification.

Abstract
Purpose To investigate the value of quantitative longitudinal relaxation time (T1), transverse relaxation time (T2), and proton density (PD) maps derived from synthetic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for evaluating the status of lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) in cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) without lymph node metastasis (LNM). Material and methods Patients with suspected cervical cancer who visited our hospital from May 2020 to March 2023 were collected. All patients underwent preoperative MRI, including routine sequences and synthetic MRI. Patients with pathologically confirmed CSCC without lymphatic metastasis were included in this study. The subjects were divided into negative- and positive-LVSI groups based on the status of LVSI. Quantitative parameters of T1, T2, and PD values derived from synthetic MRI were compared between the two groups using independent samples t-test. Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to determine the diagnostic efficacy of the parameters. Results 59 patients were enrolled in this study and were classified as positive (n = 32) and negative LVSI groups (n = 27). T1 and T2 values showed significant differences in differentiating negative-LVSI from positive-LVSI CSCC (1307.39 ± 122.02 vs. 1193.03 ± 107.86, P<0.0001; 88.42 ± 7.24 vs. 80.99 ± 5.50, P<0.0001, respectively). The area under the curve (AUC) for T1, T2 values and a combination of T1 and T2 values were 0.756, 0.799, 0.834 respectively, and there is no statistically significant difference in the diagnostic efficacy between individual and combined diagnosis of each parameter. Conclusions Quantitative parameters derived from synthetic MRI can be used to evaluate the LVSI status in patients with CSCC without LNM.

Abstract
Objectives To compare the imaging quality, apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), and the value of assessing bone marrow infiltration between reduced field-of-view diffusion-weighted imaging (r-FOV DWI) and conventional DWI in the lumbar spine of acute leukemia (AL). Methods Patients with newly diagnosed AL were recruited and underwent both r-FOV DWI and conventional DWI in the lumbar spine. Two radiologists evaluated image quality scores using 5-Likert-type scales qualitatively and measured signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-to-noise (CNR), signal intensity ratio (SIR), and ADC quantitatively. Patients were divided into hypo- and normocellular group, moderately hypercellular group, and severely hypercellular group according to bone marrow cellularity (BMC) obtained from bone marrow biopsies. The image quality parameters and ADC value between the two sequences were compared. One-way analysis of variance followed by LSD post hoc test was used for the comparisons of the ADC values among the three groups. The performance of ADC obtained with r-FOV DWI (ADCr) and conventional DWI(ADCc) in evaluating BMC and their correlations with BMC and white blood cells (WBC) were analyzed and compared. Results 71 AL patients (hypo- and normocellular: n=20; moderately hypercellular: n=19; severely hypercellular: n=32) were evaluated. The image quality scores, CNR, SIR, and ADC value of r-FOV DWI were significantly higher than those of conventional DWI (all p<0.05), and the SNR of r-FOV DWI was significantly lower (p<0.001). ADCr showed statistical differences in all pairwise comparisons among the three groups (all p<0.05), while ADCc showed significant difference only between hypo- and normocellular group and severely hypercellular group (p=0.014). The performance of ADCr in evaluating BMC (Z=2.380, p=0.017) and its correlations with BMC (Z=-2.008, p = 0.045) and WBC (Z=-2.022, p = 0.043) were significantly higher than those of ADCc. Conclusion Compared with conventional DWI, r-FOV DWI provides superior image quality of the lumbar spine in AL patients, thus yielding better performance in assessing bone marrow infiltration.

Abstract
Background The spleen is a frequent organ of leukemia metastasis. This study aimed to investigate the value of intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for assessing pathologic changes in the spleen and identifying early spleen involvement in patients with acute leukemia (AL). Methods Patients with newly diagnosed AL and healthy controls were recruited between June 2020 and November 2022. All participants underwent abdominal IVIM diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) at our hospital. IVIM parameters [pure diffusion coefficient (D); pseudo-diffusion coefficient (D*); and pseudo-perfusion fraction (f)] of the spleen were calculated by the segmented fitting method, and perfusion-diffusion ratio (PDR) was further calculated from the values of D, D* and f. Spleen volumes (SVs) were obtained by manually segmenting the spleen layer by layer. Clinical biomarkers of AL patients were collected. Patients were divided into splenomegaly group and normal SV group according to the individualized reference intervals for SV. IVIM parameters were compared among the control group, AL with normal SV group, and AL with splenomegaly group using one-way analysis of variance, followed by pairwise post hoc comparisons. The correlations of IVIM parameters with clinical biomarkers were analyzed in AL patients. The diagnostic performances of IVIM parameters and their combinations for differentiating among the three groups were compared. Results Seventy-nine AL patients (AL with splenomegaly: n=54; AL with normal SV: n=25) and 55 healthy controls were evaluated. IVIM parameters were significantly different among the three groups (P<0.001 for D, D* and f; P=0.001 for PDR). D and PDR showed significant differences between the control and AL with normal SV groups in pairwise comparisons (P<0.001, and P=0.031, respectively). D was correlated with white blood cell (WBC) counts (r=-0.424; 95% CI: -0.570, -0.211; P<0.001), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (r=-0.285; 95% CI: -0.486, -0.011; P=0.011), and bone marrow blasts (r=-0.283; 95% CI: -0.476, -0.067; P=0.012). D* (r=-0.276; 95% CI: -0.470, -0.025; P=0.014), f (r=0.514; 95% CI: 0.342, 0.664; P<0.001) and PDR (r=0.343; 95% CI: 0.208, 0.549; P=0.002) were correlated with LDH. The combination of IVIM parameters (AUC: 0.830; 95% CI: 0.729, 0.905) demonstrated better diagnostic efficacy than the single D* (AUC: 0.721; 95% CI: 0.608, 0.816; Delong test: Z=2.012, P=0.044) and f (AUC: 0.647; 95% CI: 0.532, 0.752; Delong test: Z=2.829, P=0.005), but was not significantly different from the single D (AUC: 0.756; 95% CI: 0.647, 0.846; Delong test: Z=1.676, P=0.094) in differentiating the splenomegaly group and normal SV group. Conclusions IVIM diffusion-weighted MRI could be a potential alternative for assessing pathologic changes in the spleen from cellularity and angiogenesis, and D and PDR may be viable indicators to identify early spleen involvement in patients with AL.

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

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

Abstract
The pathways through which mature blood cells in the bone marrow (BM) enter the blood stream and exit the BM, hematopoietic stem cells in the peripheral blood return to the BM, and other substances exit the BM are referred to as the marrow-blood barrier (MBB). This barrier plays an important role in the restrictive sequestration of blood cells, the release of mature blood cells, and the entry and exit of particulate matter. In some blood diseases and tumors, the presence of immature cells in the blood suggests that the MBB is damaged, mainly manifesting as increased permeability, especially in angiogenesis. Some imaging methods have been used to monitor the integrity and permeability of the MBB, such as DCE-MRI, IVIM, ASL, BOLD-MRI, and microfluidic devices, which contribute to understanding the process of related diseases and developing appropriate treatment options. In this review, we briefly introduce the theory of MBB imaging modalities along with their clinical applications.

Abstract
To evaluate and compare the performance of synthetic magnetic resonance imaging (SyMRI) in classifying benign and malignant breast lesions and predicting the expression status of immunohistochemistry (IHC) markers. We retrospectively analysed 121 patients with breast lesions who underwent dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) and SyMRI before surgery in our hospital. DCE-MRI was used to assess the lesions, and then regions of interest (ROIs) were outlined on SyMRI (before and after enhancement), and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps to obtain quantitative values. After being grouped according to benign and malignant status, the malignant lesions were divided into high and low expression groups according to the expression status of IHC markers. Logistic regression was used to analyse the differences in independent variables between groups. The performance of the modalities in classification and prediction was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. In total, 57 of 121 lesions were benign, the other 64 were malignant, and 56 malignant lesions performed immunohistochemical staining. Quantitative values from proton density-weighted imaging prior to an injection of the contrast agent (PD-Pre) and T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) after the injection (T2-Gd), as well as its standard deviation (SD of T2-Gd), were valuable SyMRI parameters for the classification of benign and malignant breast lesions, but the performance of SyMRI (area under the curve, AUC = 0.716) was not as good as that of ADC values (AUC = 0.853). However, ADC values could not predict the expression status of breast cancer markers, for which SyMRI had excellent performance. The AUCs of androgen receptor (AR), estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2), p53 and Ki-67 were 0.687, 0.890, 0.852, 0.746, 0.813 and 0.774, respectively. SyMRI had certain value in distinguishing between benign and malignant breast lesions, and ADC values were still the ideal method. However, to predict the expression status of IHC markers, SyMRI had an incomparable value compared with ADC values.

Abstract
Objectives To study the value of standardized volume and intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) parameters of the spleen based on tumor burden for predicting treatment response in newly diagnosed acute leukemia (AL). Methods Patients with newly diagnosed AL were recruited and underwent abdominal IVIM diffusion-weighted imaging within one week before the first induction chemotherapy. Quantitative parameters of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) included the standardized volume (representing volumetric tumor burden) and IVIM parameters (standard apparent diffusion coefficient [sADC]; pure diffusion coefficient [D]; pseudo-diffusion coefficient [D∗]; and pseudo-perfusion fraction [f], representing functional tumor burden) of the spleen. Clinical biomarkers of tumor burden were collected. Patients were divided into complete remission (CR) and non-CR groups according to the treatment response after the first standardized induction chemotherapy, and the MRI and clinical parameters were compared between the two groups. The correlations of MRI parameters with clinical biomarkers were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to determine the independent predictors for treatment response. Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to analyze the predicted performance. Results 76 AL patients (CR: n = 43; non-CR: n = 33) were evaluated. Standardized spleen volume, sADC, D, f, white blood cell counts, and lactate dehydrogenase were significantly different between CR and non-CR groups (all p < 0.05). Standardized spleen volume, sADC, and D were correlated with white blood cell and lactate dehydrogenase, and f was correlated with lactate dehydrogenase (all p < 0.05). Standardized spleen volume (hazard ratio = 4.055, p = 0.042), D (hazard ratio = 0.991, p = 0.027), and f (hazard ratio = 1.142, p = 0.008) were independent predictors for treatment response, and the combination of standardized spleen volume, D, and f showed more favorable discrimination (area under the curve = 0.856) than individual predictors. Conclusion Standardized volume, D, and f of the spleen could be used to predict treatment response in newly diagnosed AL, and the combination of morphological and functional parameters would further improve the predicted performance. IVIM parameters of the spleen may be viable indicators for evaluating functional tumor burden in AL.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the survival time of reported HIV/AIDS and influencing factors of Yunnan Province from 1989 to 2021. Methods: The data were extracted from the Chinese HIV/AIDS comprehensive response information management system. The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The life table method was applied to calculate the survival probability. Kaplan-Meier was used to draw survival curves in different situations. Furthermore, the Cox proportion hazard regression model was constructed to identify the factors related to survival time. Results: Of the 174 510 HIV/AIDS, the all-cause mortality density was 4.23 per 100 person-years, the median survival time was 20.00 (95%CI:19.52-20.48) years, and the cumulative survival rates in 1, 10, 20, and 30 years were 90.75%, 67.50%, 47.93% and 30.85%. Multivariate Cox proportional risk regression model results showed that the risk of death among 0-14 and 15-49 years old groups were 0.44 (95%CI: 0.34-0.56) times and 0.51 (95%CI:0.50-0.52) times of ≥50 years old groups. The risk for death among the first CD4+T lymphocytes counts (CD4) counts levels of 200-349 cells/μl, 350-500 cells/μl and ≥501 cells/μl groups were 0.52 (95%CI: 0.50-0.53) times, 0.41 (95%CI: 0.40-0.42) times and 0.35 (95%CI: 0.34-0.36) times of 0-199 cells/μl groups. The risk of death among the cases that have not received antiretroviral therapy (ART) was 11.56 (95%CI: 11.26-11.87) times. The risk for death among the cases losing to ART, stopping to ART, both losing and stopping ART was 1.66 (95%CI:1.61-1.72) times, 2.49 (95%CI:2.39-2.60) times, and 1.65 (95%CI:1.53-1.78) times of the cases on ART. Conclusions: The influencing factors for the survival time of HIV/AIDS cases were age at diagnosis in Yunnan province from 1989 to 2021. The first CD4 counts levels, antiretroviral therapy, and ART compliance. Early diagnosis, early antiretroviral therapy, and increasing ART compliance could extend the survival time of HIV/AIDS cases.

Abstract
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is an important structure that maintains the normal function of the central nervous system (CNS). The functional structure of BBB is closely related to diseases of CNS, including degenerative diseases, brain tumours, traumatic brain injury, stroke, etc. Imaging methods were commonly used to monitor the integrity of BBB, such as DCE-MRI, DSC-MRI, and PET, this contributes to understand the process of related diseases and develop appropriate treatment options. In recent years, many studies had shown that the MRI methods (ASL, IVIM, CEST, etc.) could evaluate blood-brain barrier function, which use endogenous contrast agents and become an increasingly great concern. Another image methods (FUS, uWB-eMPs) can open up the normal BBB, allowing macromolecular drugs across the locally opening BBB, which could be beneficial to the treatment of some brain diseases. In this review, we briefly introduce the theory of BBB imaging modalities and its clinical application.

Abstract
Purpose To study the value of quantitative IVIM parameters in evaluating cerebral blood perfusion changes in patients newly diagnosed with acute leukemia (AL) by comparing them with healthy participants. Materials and methods This prospective study consecutively recruited 49 participants with newly diagnosed AL and 40 normal controls between July 2020 and September 2022. All participants underwent an MRI of the brain using an axial T1-weighted and an IVIM sequence. The IVIM parameters (water diffusion coefficient, sADC, pseudoperfusion fraction, f; diffusion coefficient, D, pseudodiffusion coefficient, D *, and perfusion-diffusion ratio, PDR) and peripheral white blood cell (WBC) counts were obtained. An unpaired t-test or the Mann-Whitney U-test was performed to compare the differences in gray matter (GM) and white matter (WM) of healthy participants and AL patients and the differences in IVIM parameters between healthy participants and patients with AL. In addition, multivariate (logistic regression) analyses were used to identify independent predictors and then, the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analyses were performed. Results 40 healthy participants and 49 patients with newly diagnosed AL were evaluated. In healthy participants, sADC, PDR, D and f values of GM were significantly higher than those of WM (t = 5.844, t = 3.838, t = 7.711, z = -2.184, respectively, all P < 0.05). In AL patients, the D, f and sADC values of GM were significantly higher than those of WM (t = 3.450, t = 6.262, t = 4.053, respectively, all P < 0.05). The sADC and f value from AL patients were significantly lower than those from healthy participants in GM (z = -2.537, P = 0.011; and z = -2.583, P = 0.010, respectively) and WM (z = -2.969, P = 0.003; z = -2.923, P = 0.003, respectively). The WBC counts of AL patients were significantly higher than those of healthy participants (t = 3.147, P = 0.002). Multivariate analyses showed that the f values of GM and WM were independent predictors of AL (P = 0.030, and 0.010, respectively), with the optimal cut-off value at 7.08% (AUC ROC curve: 0.661, specificity: 11.4%, sensitivity: 98%) and 13.77% (AUC ROC curve: 0.682, specificity: 79.5%, sensitivity: 59.2%). Conclusion The IVIM parameters of brain parenchyma in patients newly diagnosed with AL differed from those of the healthy participants. The changes of cerebral blood flow perfusion are expected to provide new ideas for studying central nervous system infiltration in AL.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the performance of multisequence magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiomics models in the assessment of microsatellite instability (MSI) status in endometrial cancer (EC). MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective multicentre study included 338 EC patients with available MSI status and preoperative MRI scans, divided into training (37 MSI, 123 microsatellite stability [MSS]), internal validation (15 MSI, 52 MSS), and external validation cohorts (30 MSI, 81 MSS). Radiomics features were extracted from T2-weighted images, diffusion-weighted images, and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images. The ComBat harmonisation method was applied to remove intrascanner variability. The Boruta wrapper algorithm was used for key feature selection. Three classification algorithms, logistic regression (LR), random forest (RF), and support vector machine (SVM), were applied to build the radiomics models. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was calculated to compare the diagnostic performance of the models. Decision curve analysis (DCA) was conducted to determine the clinical usefulness of the models. RESULTS Among the 1980 features, Boruta finally selected nine radiomics features. A higher MSI prediction performance was achieved after running the ComBat harmonisation method. The SVM algorithm had the best performance, with AUCs of 0.921, 0.903, and 0.937 in the training, internal validation, and external validation cohorts, respectively. The DCA results showed that the SVM algorithm achieved higher net benefits than the other classifiers over a threshold range of 0.581-0.783. CONCLUSION The multisequence MRI-based radiomics models showed promise in preoperatively predicting the MSI status in EC in this multicentre setting.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To observe the elongation of the axial tooth movement in the unopposed rodent molar model with type 1 diabetes mellitus and explore the pathological changes of periodontal ligament and alveolar bone, and their correlation with tooth axial movement. METHODS The 80 C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into the streptozotocin(STZ)-injected group (n = 50) and the control group (n = 30). Mice in the streptozotocin(STZ)-injected group were injected intraperitoneal with streptozotocin (STZ), and mice in the control group were given intraperitoneal injection of equal doses of sodium citrate buffer. Thirty mice were randomly selected from the successful models as the T1DM group. The right maxillary molar teeth of mice were extracted under anesthesia, and allowed mandibular molars to super-erupt. Mice were sacrificed at 0, 3, 6,9, and 12 days. Tooth elongation and bone mineral density (BMD) were evaluated by micro-CT analysis(0,and 12 days mice). Conventional HE staining, Masson staining and TRAP staining were used to observe the changes in periodontal tissue(0, 3, 6, 9, and 12 days mice). The expression differences of SPARC, FGF9, BMP4, NOGGIN, and type I collagen were analyzed by RT-qPCR. RESULTS After 12 days of tooth extraction, our data showed significant super-eruption of mandibular mouse molars of the two groups. The amount of molar super-eruption in the T1DM group was 0.055mm( ± 0.014mm), and in the control group was 0.157( ± 0.017mm). The elongation of the T1DM mice was less than that of the control mice(P<0.001). It was observed that the osteoclasts and BMD increased gradually in both groups over time. Compared with the control group, the collagen arrangement was more disordered, the number of osteoclasts was higher (P<0.05), and the increase of bone mineral density was lower(2.180 ± 0.007g/cm3 vs. 2.204 ± 0.006g/cm3, P<0.001) in the T1DM group. The relative expression of SPARC, FGF9, BMP4, and type I collagen in the two groups increased with the extension of tooth extraction time while NOGGIN decreased. The relative expression of all of SPARC, FGF9, BMP4, and type I collagen in the T1DM group were significantly lower, and the expression of NOGGIN was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION The axial tooth movement was inhibited in type 1 diabetic mice. The result may be associated with the changes of periodontal ligament osteoclastogenic effects and alveolar bone remodeling regulated by the extracellular matrix and osteogenesis-related factors.

Abstract
Background Epithelial ovarian tumors (EOTs) are a group of heterogeneous neoplasms. It is importance to preoperatively differentiate the histologic subtypes of EOTs. Our study aims to investigate the potential of radiomics signatures based on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps for categorizing EOTs. Methods This retrospectively enrolled 146 EOTs patients [34 with borderline EOT(BEOT), 30 with type I and 82 with type II epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC)]. A total of 390 radiomics features were extracted from DWI and ADC maps. Subsequently, the LASSO algorithm was used to reduce the feature dimensions. A radiomics signature was established using multivariable logistic regression method with 3-fold cross-validation and repeated 50 times. Patients with bilateral lesions were included in the validation cohort and a heuristic selection method was established to select the tumor with maximum probability for final consideration. A nomogram incorporating the radiomics signature and clinical characteristics was also developed. Receiver operator characteristic, decision curve analysis (DCA), and net reclassification index (NRI) were applied to compare the diagnostic performance and clinical net benefit of predictive model. Results For distinguishing BEOT from EOC, the radiomics signature and nomogram showed more favorable discrimination than the clinical model (0.915 vs. 0.852 and 0.954 vs. 0.852, respectively) in the training cohort. In classifying early-stage type I and type II EOC, the radiomics signature exhibited superior diagnostic performance over the clinical model (AUC 0.905 vs. 0.735). The diagnostic efficacy of the nomogram was the same as that of the radiomics model with NRI value of -0.1591 (P = 0.7268). DCA also showed that the radiomics model and combined model had higher net benefits than the clinical model. Conclusion Radiomics analysis based on DWI, and ADC maps serve as an effective quantitative approach to categorize EOTs.

Abstract
BackgroundHydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is a key treatment for patients with lupus, but the major long-term toxicity is HCQ retinopathy. A large cross-sectional study found a prevalence of HCQ retinopathy of 7.5% overall and 5 times higher odds associated with HCQ dose >5 mg/kg/day, which led to ophthalmology guidelines recommending the avoidance of HCQ dosing >5 mg/kg.1 However, whether this dosing recommendation is applicable to the future risk of HCQ retinopathy is unknown, as is the incidence of severe bullseye retinopathy vs. the mild, pre-symptomatic stage. Furthermore, recent studies have indicated that the use of lower doses of HCQ may increase the risk of lupus flares and hospitalizations.2ObjectivesTo determine the incidence of HCQ retinopathy associated with long-term HCQ use and compare them according to HCQ dose.MethodsWe emulated a hypothetical target trial using observational data3 from the US integrated health network Kaiser Permanente Northern California to compare two HCQ weight-based dosing strategies, >5 vs ≤5 mg/kg/day, based on dispensed tablets per year. A secondary analysis evaluated >80% of prescription days covered by dispensed tablets per year with HCQ dose >5 vs ≤5 mg/kg. We included 4,677 patients who initiated and continued HCQ for at least 5 years between 1997-2020. We emulated randomization of treatment strategy by cloning each subject and assigning a replicate to each treatment group.3 We censored replicates if and when they deviated from the assigned treatment group, assessed as the average dose in the first 5 years and annually thereafter. We used inverse probability weighting to account for censoring. The primary outcome was HCQ retinopathy, assessed by expert adjudication of spectral domain-optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and graded by severity. All SD-OCTs were prospectively reviewed by an expert ophthalmologist (RM), and a second expert ophthalmologist (MM) reviewed all abnormal scans and a random subset of normal scans. We assessed intra-rater reliability of SD-OCT findings. We used pooled logistic regression to estimate the cumulative incidence of HCQ retinopathy for each HCQ dose strategy from initiation. The odds ratios approximated hazard ratios (HRs) because the outcome at each one-year time block is <5%.ResultsAmong 4,677 patients, the mean age at HCQ initiation was 52 years; 83% were female. The racial/ethnic composition included 51% non-Hispanic White, 19% Hispanic, 14% Asian, and 11% Black patients. 756 (16.2%) and 3,921 (83.8%) patients initiated HCQ with the primary definition of the treatment strategies >5 and ≤5 mg/kg/day, respectively. The weighted kappa was 0.80 for SD-OCT reliability. 164 patients developed HCQ retinopathy (100 mild, 38 moderate, and 26 severe cases). The cumulative incidence of retinopathy over 18 years was 37.6% for >5 and 5.7% for ≤5mg/kg of HCQ in our primary analysis. The corresponding risk was 26.5% for >5 and 3.2% for ≤5 mg/kg in our secondary analysis using >80% of prescription days. Compared with ≤5 mg/kg of HCQ, the HRs of retinopathy were 9.65 (95% CI 5.73-16.65) and 10.79 (95% CI 6.40-20.07) for >5 mg/kg using the primary and secondary definitions of HCQ dose categories, respectively (Figure 1).ConclusionThe risk of HCQ retinopathy associated with long-term adherence to >5 mg/kg dosing was high, approximately 10 times that of ≤5 mg/kg dosing. However, most cases identified during the study were mild and pre-symptomatic, supporting the value of regular screening. These data should be incorporated into individualized decisions about long-term use of HCQ.References[1]Melles RB, Marmor MF.

Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests white matter network abnormalities in patients with schizophrenia (SZ) and bipolar disorder (BD), but the alterations in dynamics of the white matter network in patients with SZ and BD are largely unknown. The white matter network of patients with SZ (n = 45) and BD (n = 47) and that of healthy controls (HC, n = 105) were constructed. We used dynamics network control theory to quantify the dynamics metrics of the network, including controllability and synchronizability, to measure the ability to transfer between different states. Experiments show that the patients with SZ and BD showed decreasing modal controllability and synchronizability and increasing average controllability. The correlations between the average controllability and synchronizability of patients were broken, especially for those with SZ. The patients also showed alterations in brain regions with supercontroller roles and their distribution in the cognitive system. Finally, we were able to accurately discriminate and predict patients with SZ and BD. Our findings provide novel dynamic metrics evidence that patients with SZ and BD are characterized by a selective disruption of brain network controllability, potentially leading to reduced brain state transfer capacity, and offer new guidance for the clinical diagnosis of mental illness.

Abstract
Currently, the removal of iodized salt is carried out in high water iodine regions. The present situation of iodine nutrition and the prevalence of thyroid diseases in such regions have not been clearly elucidated. This study aimed to figure out these problems to help render effective measures for cases of abnormal iodine nutrition status. A cross-sectional study was carried out in four areas of Jining and Heze, Shandong Province, China, with different water iodine concentrations (WIC). In total, 1344 adults were enrolled in this study, and data related to their iodine nutrition, thyroid function, and thyroid ultrasonography were collected. Subjects were grouped according to WIC, urine iodine concentration (UIC), serum iodine concentration (SIC), and combined UIC and SIC for analysis. Iodine levels were in excess in the 100 μg/L ≤ WIC < 300 μg/L and WIC ≥ 300 μg/L areas. Compared with the control WIC group (10-100 μg/L), the WIC ≥ 300 μg/L group had a higher prevalence of thyroid autoimmunity (TAI, 21.25% vs. 13.19%, P <0.05), subclinical hypothyroidism (SH, 20.20% vs. 11.96%, P < 0.05), thyroid nodules (TN, 31.75% vs. 18.71%, P < 0.05), and thyroid dysfunction (23.62% vs. 12.26%, P < 0.05). Compared with the UIC control group (100-300 μg/L), high UIC group (≥ 800 μg/L) had a higher prevalence of TN (33.75% vs. 21.14%, P < 0.05) and thyroid dysfunction (25% vs. 14.47%, P < 0.05). Next, compared with the control SIC group (50-110 μg/L), high SIC group (≥ 110 μg/L) had a higher prevalence of TAI (33.80% vs. 14.47%, P < 0.05), SH (23.94% vs. 14.30%, P < 0.05), and thyroid dysfunction (33.80% vs. 15.29%, P < 0.05). Finally, subjects with the highest UIC and the highest SIC also had a higher prevalence of TAI (25.92% vs. 10.97%, P < 0.05), SH (23.45% vs. 10.97%, P < 0.05), TN (34.56% vs. 15.85%, P < 0.05), and thyroid dysfunction (27.16% vs. 13.41%, P < 0.05) than subjects with middle iodine levels. The iodine nutrition of subjects in the WIC ≥ 300 μg/L areas was still in excess after removing iodized salt from their diets. High levels of iodine also increased the prevalence of TAI, SH, TN, and thyroid dysfunction in those areas. Simply removing iodized salt may not be sufficient for high water iodine regions.

Abstract
Bone marrow is one of the most important organs in the human body. The evaluation of bone marrow microstructure and gender-related cellular and capillary networks in healthy young adults can help to better understand the process of bone metabolism. Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) provides both diffusion and perfusion quantifications without requiring intravenous contrast agent injection. In this prospective study, 60 healthy young age-matched volunteers (30 men and 30 women) underwent MRI scans at 1.5 T using multi-b-value diffusion-weighted imaging on sagittal planes covering the lumbar bone marrow. The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), true ADC (D), pseudo-ADC (D*), and perfusion fraction (f) were calculated from the diffusion-weighted images using the mono- and bi-exponential models. Lumbar cancellous bone (L2-L4) was selected as the region of interest. An independent t-test was used to detect significant differences in ADC values and IVIM parameters between men and women. The differences in IVIM parameters among the L2, L3, and L4 groups were compared with analysis of variance. The D and f values in women were significantly higher than that in men (p = 0.001, 0.026). However, D* was significantly lower in women than that in men (p = 0.001). Furthermore, there was no significant gender difference for the conventional ADC value (p = 0.186). Moreover, there were no significant differences in the D, f, and D* values among the L2, L3, and L4 vertebras of women or men. IVIM parameters can show differences in bone marrow between young women and men. As a non-invasive method, it can assess bone marrow microstructure, such as cellularity and perfusion.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to investigate the association and mediation pathways among muscle mass, muscle function (muscle strength and physical performance), and malnutrition with depressive symptoms clusters in the older hemodialysis patients. DESIGN A multi-center cross-sectional study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS A total of 499 patients aged ≥ 60 on hemodialysis from seven facilities in Shanghai of China from 2020 to 2021. MEASUREMENTS Muscle mass was assessed by skeletal muscle index(SMI). Muscle strength was measured by handgrip strength, and physical performance was measured via gait speed and Timed Up and Go Test (TUGT). Nutritional status was assessed by Malnutrition Inflammation Score (MIS). Depressive symptoms were evaluated by the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). Logistic regression and mediation analyses fully adjusted for all potential confounding factors. RESULTS Among 499 participants (312 men, mean age 69.2±6.6 years), 108 (21.6%) had depressive symptoms. The muscle strength, physical performance and malnutrition were associated with depressive symptoms. Furthermore, malnutrition significantly mediated the association of muscle function with total, cognitive-affective symptoms. The association of the muscle function with somatic symptoms were mediated by the nutritional status. The mediated proportions of malnutrition in the relationship between physical performance and depressive symptoms clusters were stronger in somatic symptoms than in cognitive-affective symptoms. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that muscle function rather than muscle mass may contribute substantially to the development of depressive symptoms clusters in the hemodialysis via malnutrition. The malnutrition mediated stronger in the association of muscle function with somatic symptoms. These findings may help guide clinicians to better diagnose and manage depression in the context of concomitant muscle function and malnutrition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this first-in-human phase 1 study, we investigated the safety and efficacy of the anti-TIGIT antibody vibostolimab as monotherapy or in combination with pembrolizumab. METHODS Part A enrolled patients with advanced solid tumors and part B enrolled patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients received vibostolimab 2.1-700 mg alone or with pembrolizumab 200 mg in part A and vibostolimab 200 mg alone or with pembrolizumab 200 mg in part B. Primary end points were safety and tolerability. Secondary end points included pharmacokinetics and objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1. RESULTS Part A enrolled 76 patients (monotherapy, 34; combination therapy, 42). No dose-limiting toxicities were reported. Across doses, 56% of patients receiving monotherapy and 62% receiving combination therapy had treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs); grade 3-4 TRAEs occurred in 9% and 17% of patients, respectively. The most common TRAEs were fatigue (15%) and pruritus (15%) with monotherapy and pruritus (17%) and rash (14%) with combination therapy. Confirmed ORR was 0% with monotherapy and 7% with combination therapy. In part B, 39 patients had anti-PD-1/PD-L1-naïve NSCLC (all received combination therapy) and 67 had anti-PD-1/PD-L1-refractory NSCLC (monotherapy, 34; combination therapy, 33). In patients with anti-PD-1/PD-L1-naive NSCLC: 85% had TRAEs-the most common were pruritus (38%) and hypoalbuminemia (31%); confirmed ORR was 26%, with responses occurring in both PD-L1-positive and PD-L1-negative tumors. In patients with anti-PD-1/PD-L1‒refractory NSCLC: 56% receiving monotherapy and 70% receiving combination therapy had TRAEs-the most common were rash and fatigue (21% each) with monotherapy and pruritus (36%) and fatigue (24%) with combination therapy; confirmed ORR was 3% with monotherapy and 3% with combination therapy. CONCLUSION Vibostolimab plus pembrolizumab was well tolerated and demonstrated antitumor activity in patients with advanced solid tumors, including patients with advanced NSCLC.

Abstract
Background At present, the diagnosis and efficacy evaluation of acute leukemia (AL) are assessed by bone marrow aspiration, which is invasive and subject to sampling errors. Therefore, there is a pressing need to develop a noninvasive and accurate imaging method to evaluate bone marrow changes in patients with AL. This study aimed to compare the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values obtained from fluid-attenuated inversion recovery diffusion-weighted imaging (FLAIR-DWI) and conventional DWI in the lumbar bone marrow of patients with AL and to investigate their performance for evaluating response to induction chemotherapy. Methods A total of 28 patients with newly diagnosed AL and 25 patients with AL after induction chemotherapy underwent MRI scans at 1.5 Tesla using a conventional DWI and a FLAIR-DWI sequence on sagittal planes covering the lumbar bone marrow. Further, the ADC values from these two sequences, denoted as ADCCON and ADCFLAIR, were measured on multiple vertebrae. The percentage of leukemia cells in bone marrow was recorded, and bone marrow aspiration was performed on treated patients to determine complete remission (CR) and nonremission (NR). Results ADCFLAIR [(0.453 ± 0.103) × 10-3 mm2/s] was significantly lower than ADCCON [(0.486 ± 0.096) × 10-3 mm2/s] in the 28 untreated patients (t = 3.051, P = 0.005). In the 25 treated patients, ADCFLAIR and ADCCON values [(0.566 ± 0.239) × 10-3 mm2/s] and [(0.716 ± 0.235) × 10-3 mm2/s], respectively, were higher compared with the untreated patients. The ADCCON values showed a nonsignificant difference between the CR (n = 18) and NR (n = 7) groups (t = 1.409, P = 0.305). However, the ADCFLAIR values exhibited statistically significant difference (t = 2.542, P = 0.018) between the two groups. In a receiver operator characteristic (ROC) analysis, the area under the curve (AUC) using ADCFLAIR (0.770) was larger than that of ADCCON (0.611) in distinguishing the CR and NR patients following the chemotherapy. Conclusion Although both ADCCON and ADCFLAIR are sensitive to tissue changes induced by chemotherapy, FLAIR-DWI outperformed conventional DWI in separating AL patients with CR from NR after chemotherapy. A possible mechanism is that FLAIR-DWI suppresses signals from free water, making the ADC measurement more sensitive to structural changes in the bone marrow.

Abstract
Extending laying cycle is a tendency in hen breeding, but egg quality declines as laying hens age. The present study was conducted to investigate the interactive effects of vitamins A and K3 on laying performance, egg and tibia quality, and antioxidative status of aged Roman Pink laying hens. In a 3 × 3 factorial arrangement, 1 080 87-week-old laying hens were allocated to nine groups with eight replicates in each group. Deficient, adequate and excess vitamins A (0, 7 000 and 14 000 IU/kg) and K3 (0, 2.0 and 4.0 mg/kg) were supplemented into a basal diet with 1 320 IU/kg of vitamin A and 0.5 mg/kg of vitamin K3. After 2 weeks of adaption to basal diet, hens were fed corresponding diets for 8 weeks. Vitamins A and K3 did not significantly affect the laying performance. However, they showed interactive effects on yolk ratio at week 93 as well as tibia weight and diameter (P < 0.05), and hens fed deficient vitamins A and K3 had the highest yolk ratio and tibia weight, but the lowest tibia diameter. Compared with deficient addition, adequate or excess vitamins A and K3 increased yolk color at weeks 93 and 97 (P < 0.05). Compared with hens fed deficient or excess vitamins, hens fed adequate vitamins A and K3 had higher eggshell strength at week 93 or 97 (P < 0.05). Increasing vitamin A elevated plasma total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) activity and decreased hepatic glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity (P < 0.05). Excess vitamin K3 increased hepatic T-SOD activity (P < 0.05). Vitamins A and K3 exhibited interaction on the activities of antioxidative enzymes in eggshell gland (P < 0.05), and adequate or excess vitamins A and K3 increased the activities of GSH-Px, T-SOD and catalase (CAT). Adequate and excess vitamin A up-regulated the mRNA expression of GSH-Px1, GSH-Px3 and SOD1 in eggshell gland (P < 0.05). Vitamins A and K3 showed interactive effects on CAT mRNA expression in eggshell gland (P < 0.05) and hens fed adequate vitamins A and K3 had the highest CAT mRNA levels. In conclusion, dietary addition of vitamins A and K3 improved the eggshell quality and yolk color as well as antioxidative status in eggshell gland of aged laying hens. Adequate vitamins A and K3 showed beneficial effects and excess levels did not exhibit superior effects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Approximately 165 million children aged <5 years are at risk of low height-for-age. This study explored whether water quality and distance to water source affected short- and long-term growth, and the critical time windows of such effects. STUDY DESIGN This study used data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS), which was a cohort study performed in 15 Chinese provinces. METHODS Data from the CHNS between 1989 and 2011 were examined. Three cohorts of children who were enrolled at 0-2 years of age in 1989, 1993, and 2000 provided sufficient data for this study. Child height was measured by physicians, and household water supply, including the water quality (safe or unsafe) and distance to the source (in-yard or out-yard), was assessed using a questionnaire when the children were 0-2, 4-6, and 11-13 years of age. Multiple regressions were performed to analyse the associations between water quality and distance to the source at various ages, and height at that age and older ages, with and without adjusting for the household water supply at previous ages. Multiple informant models were created using a generalised estimating equation and these were used to assess whether the exposure coefficients were equal across the three age periods. RESULTS A total of 1192 children were included. Water quality was not significantly associated with height over the three age periods. An out-yard water source at the age of 0-2 years was not associated with child height at that age, but it was inversely associated with child height at ages 4-6 and 11-13 years (β = -1.605, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -2.490 to -0.720, and β = -2.817, 95% CI: -4.411 to -1.224, respectively), after adjusting for sociodemographic and economic covariates and baseline child height. Distance to the water source at age 4-6 and 11-13 years was not significantly associated with height. However, significant differences were observed in the associations between distance to water source across the three age periods and height at age 4-6 and 11-13 years (pint = 0.064 and 0.069, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Distance to the water source in early, but not later, childhood exerted a long-term effect on child height. When the water quality is good, efforts should be made to shorten the distance to the source to improve child health and growth.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Quavonlimab (MK-1308), a novel anti-CTLA-4 antibody, in combination with pembrolizumab was investigated in a phase I study. PATIENTS AND METHODS Dose-escalation (DE) phase: patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors received an initial flat dose of quavonlimab as monotherapy [25 mg (cohort 1), 75 mg (cohort 2), or 200 mg (cohort 3)] followed by four treatments of the same quavonlimab dose plus pembrolizumab every 3 weeks (Q3W). Dose-confirmation phase (DC): patients with stage IIIB/IV non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) received first-line quavonlimab [25 mg Q3W (arm A), 25 mg Q6W (arm B), 75 mg Q6W (arm C), or 75 mg Q3W (arm E)] plus pembrolizumab. Primary objectives were safety and tolerability and establishment of the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of quavonlimab when used with pembrolizumab. Objective response rate (ORR) was a secondary endpoint. Efficacy based on PD-L1 expression, tumor mutational burden (TMB), and changes in circulating CD4+/CD8+ cells were exploratory endpoints. RESULTS Thirty-nine patients were enrolled in DE [n = 14 (cohort 1); n = 17 (cohort 2); n = 8 (cohort 3)] and 134 in DC [n = 40 (arm A); n = 40 (arm B); n = 40 (arm C); n = 14 (arm E)]. Maximum-tolerated dose was not reached. Grade 3-5 treatment-related adverse events (AEs; graded according to NCI CTCAE v4.03) occurred in 0%, 23.5%, and 75.0% of patients in DE cohorts 1, 2, and 3, respectively, and 35.0%, 30.0%, 35.0%, and 57.1% of patients in DC arms A, B, C, and E, respectively. Efficacy was observed at all dose levels/schedules in patients with NSCLC. ORRs were 40.0% [95% confidence interval (CI), 24.9-56.7; arm A], 37.5% (95% CI, 22.7-54.2; arm B), 27.5% (95% CI, 14.6-43.9; arm C), and 35.7% (95% CI, 12.8-64.9; arm E). PD-L1 expression and total number of circulating CD4+ cells correlated with ORR. CONCLUSIONS Quavonlimab 25 mg Q6W plus pembrolizumab demonstrated similar efficacy and a better safety profile among all quavonlimab doses/schedules evaluated; this regimen was the chosen RP2D.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the relation of pain sensitization to altered motor activity in knee OA as assessed by hamstrings muscle co-contraction during maximal effort knee extension. DESIGN Medial, lateral, and overall hamstring co-contraction was assessed in the Multicenter Osteoarthritis (MOST) Study cohort using electromyography during isokinetic knee extension at 60°/second. Mechanical temporal summation of pain (TS) was assessed at the right wrist and pressure pain thresholds (PPT) were assessed at the patellae; PPTs were categorized into sex-specific tertiles. Muscle co-contraction was categorized into age- and sex-specific tertiles. We evaluated the relation of measures of sensitization to muscle co-contraction using a generalized logistic regression model. RESULTS 1633 participants were included: mean age and BMI was 67.3 ± 7.7 years and 30.3 ± 5.6 kg/m2, respectively; 58% were female. Presence of TS was associated with higher overall (OR 1.3, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.0-1.8)), medial (1.4 (1.0-1.9), and lateral (1.3 (1.0, 1.9)) hamstring co-contraction. The lowest PPT tertile (greater sensitivity) was associated with higher overall (1.5 (1.0, 2.3)) and medial (1.5 (1.0, 2.3)) hamstring co-contraction compared with those in the highest PPT tertile. CONCLUSION Greater pain sensitization, as assessed by presence of TS at the wrist and low patellar PPT, was associated with greater overall and medial hamstring co-contraction during knee extension. This provides support to the possibility that peripheral and/or central nervous system alterations may not only affect pain sensitivity, but also motor function.

Abstract
AIM The present study examined the associations between night-time sleep duration, midday napping duration and bedtime, and fasting glucose levels, and whether or not such associations are dependent on gender and age. METHODS This study was a cross-sectional analysis of 172,901 adults aged≥40 years living in mainland China. Sleep duration was obtained by self-reports of bedtime at night, waking-up time the next morning and average napping duration at midday. Fasting plasma glucose (FPG)≥7.0mmol/L was defined as hyperglycaemia. Independent associations between night-time sleep duration, midday naptime duration and bedtime with hyperglycaemia were evaluated using regression models. RESULTS Compared with night-time sleep durations of 6-7.9h, both short (<6h) and long (≥8h) night-time sleep durations were significantly associated with an increased risk of hyperglycaemia in women [odds ratio (OR): 1.12, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.01-1.29 and OR: 1.14, 95% CI: 1.08-1.21, respectively], and revealed a U-shaped distribution of risk in women and no significant association in men. Long midday nap durations (≥1h) were significantly but weakly associated with hyperglycaemia (OR: 1.04, 95% CI: 1.01-1.09) compared with no napping without interactions from gender or age, whereas the association between bedtime and fasting glucose levels did vary according to gender and age. CONCLUSION Night-time sleep duration, midday napping duration and bedtime were all independently associated with the risk of hyperglycaemia, and some of the associations between these sleep characteristics and hyperglycaemia were gender- and age-dependent.

Abstract
The study was aimed to develop an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), which can detect specifically Feline herpesvirus type 1 (FHV-1). The primers were designed based on the conserved sequence of FHV-1 glycoprotein B gene. The recombinant protein with reactogenicity was purified as coating antigen of the assay. The indirect ELISA, characterized by high sensitivity showed no cross-reaction with two types of feline virus, had detection limit at 1:2000 dilution. The positive rate of the assay, according to the determined cutoff value (0.25), was basically consistent with Feline Herpes Virus Antibody ELISA kit. In conclusion, the indirect ELISA with high repeatability and reproducibility can be used for detecting FHV-1, and can provide necessary support to related research.

Abstract
Background Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) features relatively low overall survival (OS). Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) diffusion-weighted MRI separates tissue microcapillary perfusion and diffusivity and may have potential for helping to assess prognosis in infiltrated marrow disease apart from solid tumor. Thus, a study of overall survival would contribute to clarifying the value of IVIM for assessing long-term prognosis in AML. Purpose To determine whether the IVIM-derived parameters of infiltrated bone marrow may be associated with OS in newly diagnosed AML. Materials and Methods This prospective study enrolled participants with newly diagnosed AML between July 2014 to March 2016 consecutively. Participants underwent MRI of the lumbar spine by using an IVIM sequence. Participant clinical characteristics and OS were collected. The median of follow-up period was 20 months (range, 1-56 months). The IVIM parameters (pseudoperfusion fraction, f; diffusion coefficient, D; and pseudodiffusion coefficient, D*) were obtained. A nonparametric log-rank test was used to identify the threshold of IVIM parameters for OS. Univariable Kaplan-Meier and multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were performed to investigate prognostic significance of possible indicators. Results Fifty-three participants (mean age, 42 years ± 17; 30 men) were evaluated. Nonparametric log-rank test results showed that the thresholds of f and D values for OS were 31.0% and 0.2 × 10-3 mm2/sec, respectively. Univariable analyses indicated that high f value (>31.0%) and low D value (≤0.2 × 10-3 mm2/sec) were associated with shorter OS (P = .003 and .01, respectively). An f value greater than 31.0% (hazard ratio, 2.4; 95% confidence interval: 1.0, 5.6; P = .046) was associated with OS, independent of clinical confounders (age, karyotype, and white blood cell counts) in a multivariable analysis. Conclusion Pseudoperfusion fraction and diffusion coefficient from intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted MRI may be viable prognosis predictors of newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. © RSNA, 2020.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An accurate and noninvasive method is of great importance to assess angiogenesis and cellularity of bone marrow in acute leukemia (AL). PURPOSE To investigate whether the intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) parameters correlate with the histological characteristics of infiltrated marrow in AL patients and compare the difference between acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). STUDY TYPE Prospective. POPULATION MODEL Forty newly diagnosed patients with AL, including 20 AML and 20 ALL. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 1.5T/T1 WI and IVIM. ASSESSMENT IVIM-derived parameters (true diffusion coefficient D, pseudodiffusion coefficient D*, and perfusion fraction, f) were measured in lumbar marrow. Histopathological analyses were performed from samples of marrow biopsy. STATISTICAL TESTS The correlations between IVIM parameters and histological parameters used the Spearman correlation test. The difference of IVIM parameters and histological parameters between ALL and AML groups used the unpaired t-test or Mann-Whitney U-test, as appropriate. RESULTS The f was positively correlated with microvessel density (MVD) in patients with ALL, AML, and AL (r = 0.740, P = 0.006; r = 0.771, P < 0.001; and r = 0.750, P < 0.001, respectively). There were no significant correlations between D and bone marrow cellularity in the three groups (r = -0.289, P = 0.362; r = 0.281, P = 0.292; and r = 0.058, P = 0.769, respectively). D and f values of ALL were higher than that of AML group (t = 3.332, P = 0.003 and t = 2.600, P = 0.014, respectively). MVD was higher in ALL than AML (t = 2.120, P = 0.044), whereas bone marrow cellularity had no significant difference between AML and ALL (t = -0.682, P = 0.501). DATA CONCLUSION The f value derived from IVIM in bone marrow was positively correlated with MVD, while f might be able to show a difference of vascularity between ALL and AML. Therefore, the f value can be used as an alternative imaging marker of angiogenesis in marrow of AL patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 1 Technical Efficacy Stage: 3 J. Magn. Reson.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the relationship between intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) parameters and histological parameters of vascularity and cellularity in marrow of hyperplasia disease and compare the difference between benign and malignant marrow disorders. METHODS From August 2016 to March 2017, 43 newly diagnosed patients were recruited, which included 15 anemia patients (benign hemopathy) and 28 patients with acute leukemia (AL) (malignant hemopathy). All patients underwent IVIM in the lumbar marrow and the D, D*, f values were measured. The microvessel density (MVD) and cellularity of marrow were calculated from the sample of iliac crest biopsy. Pearson correlation analysis was used to study the relationship between IVIM-derived and histology-derived parameters. We performed unpaired t test to analyze the differences of all parameters between AL and anemia. RESULT The MVD was positively correlated with f in patients with AL, anemia and both of them (r = 0.692, P < 0.001; r = 0.595, P = 0.019; r = 0.673, P < 0.001, respectively). But there was no correlation between D* and MVD in three groups. D was not related to bone marrow cellularity (BMC) in all groups. In addition, the f and MVD were higher in AL than anemia (t = 3.546, P = 0.001; t = 6.695, P < 0.001, respectively). The BMC was significantly higher in AL than in anemia (t = 3.330, P = 0.004), but D and D* value had no significant difference between the two groups. CONCLUSION The blood volume fraction f was positively correlated with the histological features of marrow in hematological disorders, while f can show the difference of vascularity between benign and malignant marrow disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE China's national hepatitis burden is high. This study aims to provide a detailed national-level description of the reported incidence of viral hepatitis in China during 2004-2016. DESIGN Observational study. SETTING Data were obtained from China's National Notifiable Disease Reporting System, and changing trends were estimated by joinpoint regression analysis. PARTICIPANTS In this system, 16 927 233 reported viral hepatitis cases occurring during 2004-2016 were identified. PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURE Incidence rates per 100 000 person-years and changing trends were calculated. RESULTS There were 16 927 233 new cases of viral hepatitis reported in China from 2004 to 2016. Hepatitis B (HBV) (n=13 543 137, 80.00%) and hepatitis C (HCV) (n=1 844 882, 10.90%) accounted for >90% of the cases. The overall annual percent change (APC) in reported cases of viral hepatitis and HBV were 0.3%(95% CI -2.0 to 0.8, p=0.6) and -0.2% (95% CI -1.6 to 1.2, p=0.8), respectively, showing a stable trend. HBV rates were highest in the 20-29 year old age group and lowest in younger individuals, likely resulting from the universal HBV vaccination. The reported incidence of HCV and hepatitis E (HEV) showed increasing trends; the APCs were 14.5% (95% CI 13.1 to 15.9, p<0.05) and 4.7% (95% CI 2.8 to 6.7, p<0.05), respectively. The hepatitis A (HAV) reporting incidence decreased, and the APC was -13.1% (95% CI -15.1 to -11.0, p<0.05). There were marked differences in the reporting of hepatitis among provinces. CONCLUSIONS HBV continues to constitute the majority of viral hepatitis cases in China. Over the entire study period, the HBV reporting incidence was stable, the HCV and HEV incidence increased and the HAV incidence decreased. There were significant interprovincial disparities in the burden of viral hepatitis, with higher rates in economically less-developed areas. Vaccination is important for viral hepatitis prevention and control.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The differentiation of borderline from malignant ovarian epithelial tumors (OETs) is difficult based on morphologic characteristics. Diffusion and perfusion information from intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) might be useful for this distinction. PURPOSE To investigate the potential of IVIM-DWI in discriminating borderline from malignant OETs by correlating with cell proliferation and microvessel density (MVD). STUDY TYPE Prospective. SUBJECTS Sixty-six patients with OETs (22 borderline, BOETs; 44 malignant, MOETs) underwent IVIM-DWI before surgery. FIELD STRENGTH 3.0T IVIM-DWI sequence with 12 b-values (0-1000 sec/mm2 ). ASSESSMENT Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and IVIM-DWI parameters (diffusion coefficient [D], microvascular volume fraction [f], and pseudodiffusion coefficient [D*]) were measured. Cell proliferation and MVD was determined by immunohistochemical staining of Ki-67 and CD-31, respectively. STATISTICAL TESTS Mann-Whitney U-test; two-sample t-test; intraclass correlation coefficient; Bland-Altman analysis; receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves; and Spearman correlation. RESULTS ADC and D in BOETs was significantly higher than those in MOETs (P < 0.001), while f in BOETs was significantly lower than those in MOETs (P < 0.001). No significant difference was found in D* between borderline and malignancies (P = 0.324). In the differential diagnosis of borderline from malignant OETs; D demonstrated the highest area under the curve (AUC) of 0.951, while ADC and f had a lower AUC of 0.921 and 0.847, respectively. The ADC and D was negatively correlated with cell proliferation (r = -0.682, r = -0.694, respectively, P < 0.001), while f was positively correlated with MVD of the OETs (r = 0.558, P < 0.001). DATA CONCLUSION IVIM-DWI may be a useful tool for differentiating BOETs from MOETs. D and f could be image biomarkers to reflect histopathological characteristics of cell proliferation and MVD in OETs. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 1 Technical Efficacy Stage: 2 J. Magn. Reson.
