Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a progressive and irreversible complication in lung transplant patients who have received long-term treatment with tacrolimus. This study aimed to verify long-term tacrolimus exposure values in CKD progression. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of adult lung transplant recipients performed at our center between 2012 and October 2015. Patients who completed the 5-year follow-up period were enrolled in this study. CKD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m2. RESULTS Eighty patients were analyzed. Compared with baseline (109 ± 38.1 mL/min/1.73 m2), the average eGFR values of our patients gradually decreased during the fifth-year post transplantation (46.5%, 58.3 ± 28.3 mL/min/1.73 m2), and the decline in eGFR values was particularly pronounced in the first year (31.2%, 74.6 ± 28.91 mL/min/1.73 m2). Moreover, 10 (12.7%), 21 (26.9%), 24 (31.2%), 28 (41.2%), and 48 (60%) patients had eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 at 3, 6, 1, 3, and 5 years after lung transplantation (LT), respectively. A significant negative correlation was found between tacrolimus dose and eGFR 6 months after LT (P = 0.0414). We found no correlation between the serum tacrolimus concentration and CKD progression. CONCLUSION eGFR constantly decreased and the incidence of CKD increased during the 5-year follow-up period after LT. The tacrolimus dose had a significant negative correlation with eGFR at 6 months after LT. Meanwhile, whole-blood tacrolimus trough concentrations were not correlated with eGFR decline. When possible, lower dosing within 1 year after LT can reduce potential nephrotoxic side effects.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
The management of perforated diverticular disease has changed in the last 10 years with a move towards less surgical intervention. This population based cohort study aimed to define the risk of mortality and readmission following non-operative management of perforated diverticular disease (DD).
Method
Patients diagnosed with perforated DD and managed without surgery were identified from the linked Clinical Practice Research Datalink and Hospital Episode Statistics data from 2000 to 2013. The outcomes were 1-year case-fatality, re-admissions and surgery at re-admission.
Result
In total, 880 patients with perforated DD were managed without surgery, comprising of 523 females (59.4%). One year case-fatality was 33.2% (293/880). The majority of deaths occurred in the first 90 days following the index admission with a 90 day case-fatality of 28.8%. 90 day survival varied by age with 97.2% survival at 90 days in those under 65 years compared to 85.0% in those between 65–74 years and 51.5% in those over 75 years.
Of 767 patients discharged from hospital, 250 (32.6%, 250/767) were re-admitted (47 elective(6.1%) and 203 emergency(26.5%)) during a median of 1.6 years of follow-up (iqr 0.1–3.9 years) with similar proportions in each age category. In the first year of follow-up only 5.1% of patients required surgery of whom 16/767 (2.1%) required elective and 23/767 (3.0%) emergency surgery.
Conclusion
Conservative management of perforated diverticulitis in those under 65 years is feasible and safe. A third of patients are readmitted during follow-up, however, re-intervention rates following conservative management were low across all age categories.
Take-home Message
In younger patients (<65yrs) conservative management of perforated diverticulitis is feasible and safe. A third of conservatively managed patients are readmitted during follow-up, however, need for surgery on readmission is rare.

In the first year of follow-up, only 5.1 per cent of patients required surgery, of whom 16 of 767 (2.1 per cent) required elective and 23 (3.0 per cent) emergency operation. Conclusion Non-operative management of perforated diverticulitis in those aged less than 65 years is feasible and safe. Reintervention rates following conservative management were low across all age categories.

Abstract
Background Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have an increased risk of suffering from various malignancies. This study aimed to identify specific biomarkers that can detect lung adenocarcinoma (LAC) in T2DM patients for the early diagnosis of LAC. Methods The clinical information of hospitalized T2DM patients diagnosed with various cancers was collected by reviewing medical records in Wuxi People’s Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from January 1, 2015, to June 30, 2020. To discover diagnostic biomarkers for early-stage LAC in the T2DM population, 20 samples obtained from 5 healthy controls, 5 T2DM patients, 5 LAC patients and 5 T2DM patients with LAC (T2DM + LAC) were subjected to sequential windowed acquisition of all theoretical fragment ion mass spectrum (SWATH-MS) analysis to identify specific differentially-expressed proteins (DEPs) for LAC in patients with T2DM. Then, these results were validated by parallel reaction monitoring MS (PRM-MS) and ELISA analyses. Results Lung cancer was the most common malignant tumor in patients with T2DM, and LAC accounted for the majority of cases. Using SWATH-MS analysis, we found 13 proteins to be unique in T2DM patients with early LAC. Two serum proteins were further validated by PRM-MS analysis, namely, pregnancy-zone protein (PZP) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP3). Furthermore, the diagnostic values of these proteins were validated by ELISA, and PZP was validated as a novel serum biomarker for screening LAC in T2DM patients. Conclusions Our findings indicated that PZP could be used as a novel serum biomarker for the identification of LAC in T2DM patients, which will enhance auxiliary diagnosis and assist in the selection of surgical treatment at an early stage.

Abstract
Background: Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare systemic disease that generally leads to a progressive decline in pulmonary function. Experience, especially from the Asian population, including combined drug therapy before and after lung transplantation (LT) in LAM, is still limited. This study aimed to summarize the clinical data from patients with pulmonary LAM who underwent LT at centers in China. Methods: A retrospective review of all patients with LAM undergoing LT at the two largest centers in China between 2010 and 2018 was conducted. Pre- and posttransplant data were assessed and analyzed. Results: Overall, 25 patients with LAM underwent bilateral LT. The mean age was 35.0 ± 8.6 years at diagnosis and 36.8 ± 9.3 years at the time of transplant. Before LT, only six patients could complete pulmonary function test; the reachable mean forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) before LT was 15.9 ± 6.9%. Twenty-one patients (84%) had a recurrent pneumothorax, four (16.0%) of which required pleurodesis. Eight patients (32%) were treated with sirolimus pretransplant for 3.9 years (1-9 years). The average intra-surgery bleeding volume was 1,280 ± 730 ml in need of a transfusion of 1,316 ± 874 ml due to moderate-to-severe adhesion and pretransplant pleurodesis. The causes of death of four patients (16%) included primary graft dysfunction, bronchial dehiscence with long-term use of sirolimus, and uncontrollable infections. The median follow-up time from LT was 41.1 ± 25.0 months. Conclusions: LT for LAM patients from the Asian population has been reinforced from the data that we presented. Peri-transplantation use of sirolimus and LAM-related complications should be further defined and under constant surveillance.

Abstract
Directional breaking of the C-H/C-D molecular bond is manipulated in acetylene (C2H2) and deuterated acetylene (C2D2) by waveform controlled few-cycle mid-infrared laser pulses with a central wavelength around 1.6 μm at an intensity of about 8 × 1013 W/cm2. The directionality of the deprotonation of acetylene is controlled by changing the carrier-envelope phase (CEP). The CEP-control can be attributed to the laser-induced superposition of vibrational modes, which is sensitive to the sub-cycle evolution of the laser waveform. Our experiments and simulations indicate that near-resonant, intense mid-infrared pulses permit a higher degree of control of the directionality of the reaction compared to those obtained in near-infrared fields, in particular for the deuterated species.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical studies have reported reduced fertility in women with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). AIM To compare fertility rates in women with IBD to those in women without IBD and assess whether the relative fertility differed following IBD diagnosis, flares and surgery. METHODS Women aged 15-44 years in 1990-2010 were identified from a UK primary care database. We estimated overall and age-specific fertility rates by 5-year age bands for women with and without IBD. We used Poisson regression to calculate adjusted fertility rate ratios (AFRR), adjusted for age, smoking and socioeconomic deprivation. RESULTS There were 46.2 live births per 1000 person-years [95% confidence interval (95% CI); 44.6-47.9] in 9639 women with IBD and 49.3 (95% CI 49.2-49.5) in 2 131 864 without (AFRR: 0.93; 95% CI: 0.89-0.96). Excluding periods of contraception use, the AFRR was 0.99 (95% CI: 0.95-1.03). Before diagnosis, the AFRR for women with ulcerative colitis (UC) was 1.07 (95% CI: 0.99-1.16) and was 0.88 (95% CI: 0.81-0.97) for women with CD. After diagnosis, AFRRs were 0.87 (95% CI: 0.82-0.94) for CD and 0.92 (95% CI: 0.86-1.00) for UC. The fertility rate was lower following flares (AFRR: 0.70; 95% CI: 0.59-0.82) or surgery (AFRR: 0.84; 95% CI: 0.77-0.92). Women with pouch and non-pouch surgery had similar overall fertility though the reduction after surgery was greater for pouches (AFRR: 0.48; 95% CI: 0.23-0.99). CONCLUSIONS Women with Crohn's disease have marginally lower fertility rates. These rates decreased following flares and surgical interventions. Fertility rates returned almost to normal when women were not prescribed contraception but the reduction following surgical intervention remained. As the lifetime effect of pouch vs. nonpouch surgery on fertility is small, the reduction post-pouch surgery should be interpreted with caution.

Abstract
Objective To estimate risks of major congenital anomaly (MCA) among children of mothers prescribed antidepressants during early pregnancy or diagnosed with depression but without antidepressant prescriptions. Design Population-based cohort study. Setting Linked UK maternal–child primary care records. Population A total of 349 127 singletons liveborn between 1990 and 2009. Methods Odds ratios adjusted for maternal sociodemographics and comorbidities (aORs) were calculated for MCAs, comparing women with first-trimester selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) and women with diagnosed but unmedicated depression, or women without diagnosed depression. Main outcome measures Fourteen system-specific MCA groups classified according to the European Surveillance of Congenital Anomalies and five specific heart anomaly groups. Results Absolute risks of MCA were 2.7% (95% confidence interval, 95% CI, 2.6–2.8%) in children of mothers without diagnosed depression, 2.8% (95% CI 2.5–3.2%) in children of mothers with unmedicated depression, and 2.7% (95% CI 2.2–3.2%) and 3.1% (95% CI 2.2–4.1%) in children of mothers with SSRIs or TCAs, respectively. Compared with women without depression, MCA overall was not associated with unmedicated depression (aOR 1.07, 95% CI 0.96–1.18), SSRIs (aOR 1.01, 95% CI 0.88–1.17), or TCAs (aOR 1.09, 95% CI 0.87–1.38). Paroxetine was associated with increased heart anomalies (absolute risk 1.4% in the exposed group compared with 0.8% in women without depression; aOR 1.78, 95% CI 1.09–2.88), which decreased marginally when compared with women with diagnosed but unmedicated depression (aOR 1.67, 95% CI 1.00–2.80). Conclusions Overall MCA risk did not increase with maternal depression or with antidepressant prescriptions. Paroxetine was associated with increases of heart anomalies, although this could represent a chance finding from a large number of comparisons undertaken.

Abstract
Rhopalosiphum padi virus (RhPV) is an insect RNA virus that infects aphids, reducing their lifespan and fecundity. It can be transmitted vertically between aphids and horizontally via the plant. An improved detection method for the virus in aphids and plants using RT-PCR was developed; this allowed individual aphids to be tested for RhPV. Testing of R. padi aphids collected from different sites in Sweden revealed the presence of RhPV in wild aphid populations for the first time in Europe. Virus could be detected in several life stages of R. padi, including sexual individuals and eggs, establishing an over-wintering route for the virus. Using RT-PCR, systemic transport of the virus in plants was tracked. Virus spread from the aphid feeding site to all parts of the plant, including roots, within 7 days, and could be acquired by virus-free aphids feeding on the same plant.

Abstract
We have identified, cloned and expressed a new chemosensory protein (CSP) in the desert locust Schistocerca gregaria belonging to a third sub-class of these polypeptides. Polyclonal antibodies stained a band of 14 kDa, as expected, in the extracts of antennae and palps of the adults, but not in the 4th and 5th instars. In the related species Locusta migratoria, instead, the same antibodies cross-reacted only with a band of apparent molecular mass of 35 kDa in the extract of 1st-5th instars, but not in the adults. The recombinant protein binds the fluorescent probe N-phenyl-1-naphthylamine, but none of the compounds so far reported as pheromones for S. gregaria. The expression of the odorant-binding protein (OBP) and of CSPs of sub-classes I and II was also monitored in antennae, tarsi, palpi, wings and other organs of solitary and gregarious locusts in their nymphal and adult stages. OBP was found to be antenna specific, where it is expressed at least from the 3rd instar in both solitary and gregarious locusts. CSPs, instead, appear to be more ubiquitous, with different expression patterns, according to the sub-class. Immunocytochemistry experiments revealed that OBP is present in the sensillum lymph of sensilla trichodea and basiconica, while CSP-I and CSP-III were found in the outer sensillum lymph of sensilla chaetica and in the sub-cuticular space between epidermis and cuticle of the antenna. Sensilla chaetica on other parts of the body showed the same expression of CSP-I as those on the antenna.

Abstract
Two different classes of chemosensory proteins (CSPs) in Locusta migratoria have been identified on the basis of the molecular cloning of a series of different cDNAs from the antennae of this insect. Several CSP isoforms have been purified and biochemically characterized from antennal and wing extracts, some of them corresponding to expression products predicted for the identified cDNAs. In wings, the nature of the main endogenous ligand binding to these proteins was determined as oleoamide by a gas chromatography-mass spectrometric approach. One of these isoforms has been expressed in a bacterial system with high yield and used in a fluorescent binding assay. Competitive binding experiments have indicated the presence of long-chain compounds among the best ligands.

Abstract
Analysis of soluble proteins from different body parts of Locusta migratoria revealed a fast-migrating component in native electrophoresis, unique to antennae of both sexes. N-terminal sequence analysis and cloning identified this protein as a member of the insect odorant-binding proteins, carrying a well-conserved six-cysteine motif. Mass spectrometry analysis confirmed the occurrence of two distinct polypeptide species determined by nucleotide sequencing and demonstrated that the cysteine residues are paired in an interlocked fashion. The protein was expressed in a bacterial system with yields of about 10 mg/l of culture, mostly present as inclusion bodies. However, this recombinant product was solubilized after disulfide reduction. Air oxidation yielded a species with all disulfides spontaneously formed as in the native counterpart. Both native and recombinant proteins migrated as a dimer in gel filtration chromatography. Ligand binding was measured, using N-phenyl-1-naphthylamine as the fluorescent probe; the affinity of other ligands was measured in competitive binding assays. The protein exhibited great resistance to thermal denaturation even following prolonged treatment at 100 degrees C. A structural model for this dimeric species was generated on the basis of its sequence homology with Bombyx mori pheromone-binding protein, whose three-dimensional structure has been resolved as an unbound species and in complex with its physiological ligand. This is the first report of an odorant-binding protein identified and characterized from Orthoptera.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the role of mitochondrial deficiency in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disease by investigating the energy metabolism in a sodium azide inhibited cytochrome-c oxidase SH-SY5Y Cell model. METHODS Human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y Cells were exposed to sodium azide, then mitochondrial complex IV activity was assayed by microassay method; cell viability was measured by Thiazolyl blue(MTT) method; mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was detected by confocal microscopy and flow cytometry. RESULTS Cultured SH-SY5Y cells were exposed to 16-64 mmol/L sodium azide for 1 hour, the mitochondrial complex IV activity decreased dose-dependently. MTT absorbance decreased does- and time-dependently in cultured nerve cells treated by 16-128 mmol/L sodium azide for 1-8 hours. After the treatment of 16 mmol/L sodium azide for 1 hour, both the fluorescence intensity of MMP and normal cell events reduced. Decrease of MMP was significant especially in cell processes. CONCLUSION Sodium azide induced the impairment of mitochondrial energy synthesis in the cultured nerve cells which is an important cause in cell death.
