Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is one of the most common causes of a drug being withdrawn, and identifying the culprit drugs and the host factors at risk of causing DILI has become a current challenge. Recent studies have found that immune status plays a considerable role in the development of DILI. In this study, DILI-related differentially expressed genes mediated by immunoinflammatory cytokines were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to predict the occurrence of DILI (named the DILI predictive gene set, DILI_PGS), and the predictability of the DILI_PGS was verified using the Connectivity Map (CMap) and LiverTox platforms. The results obtained DILI_PGS from the GEO database could predict 81.25% of liver injury drugs. In addition, the Coexpedia platform was used to predict the DILI_PGS-related characteristics of common host diseases and found that the DILI_PGS mainly involved immune-related diseases and tumor-related diseases. Then, animal models of immune stress (IS) and immunosuppressive (IP) were selected to simulate the immune status of the above diseases. Meanwhile, psoralen, a main component derived from Psoralea corylifolia Linn. with definite hepatotoxicity, was selected as an experimental drug with highly similar molecular fingerprints to three idiosyncratic hepatotoxic drugs (nefazodone, trovafloxacin, and nimesulide) from the same DILI_PGS dataset. The animal experiment results found a single administration of psoralen could significantly induce liver injury in IS mice, while there was no obvious liver function change in IP mice by repeatedly administering the same dose of psoralen, and the potential mechanism of psoralen-induced liver injury in IS mice may be related to regulating the expression of the TNF-related pathway. In conclusion, this study constructed the DILI_PGS with high accuracy to predict the occurrence of DILI and preliminarily identified the characteristics of host factors inducing DILI.

Abstract
The two most commonly used airway management techniques during general anaesthesia are supraglottic airway devices and tracheal tubes. In older patients undergoing elective non-cardiothoracic surgery under general anaesthesia with positive pressure ventilation, we hypothesised that a composite measure of in-hospital postoperative pulmonary complications would be less frequent when a supraglottic airway device was used compared with a tracheal tube. We studied patients aged ≥ 70 years in 17 clinical centres. Patients were allocated randomly to airway management with a supraglottic airway device or a tracheal tube. Between August 2016 and April 2020, 2900 patients were studied, of whom 2751 were included in the primary analysis (1387 with supraglottic airway device and 1364 with a tracheal tube). Pre-operatively, 2431 (88.4%) patients were estimated to have a postoperative pulmonary complication risk index of 1-2. Postoperative pulmonary complications, mostly coughing, occurred in 270 of 1387 patients (19.5%) allocated to a supraglottic airway device and 342 of 1364 patients (25.1%) assigned to a tracheal tube (absolute difference -5.6% (95%CI -8.7 to -2.5), risk ratio 0.78 (95%CI 0.67-0.89); p < 0.001). Among otherwise healthy older patients undergoing elective surgery under general anaesthesia with intra-operative positive pressure ventilation of their lungs, there were fewer postoperative pulmonary complications when the airway was managed with a supraglottic airway device compared with a tracheal tube.

Abstract
Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a potentially reversible entity that occurs in patients with chronic liver disease accompanied with or without cirrhosis and is characterized by extrahepatic organ failure and high short-term mortality. Currently, the most effective treatment method for patients with ACLF is liver transplantation; therefore, admission timing and contraindications must be emphasized. The function of vital organs such as the heart, brain, lungs, and kidneys should be actively supported and protected during the liver transplantation perioperative period in patients with ACLF. Focusing on the anesthesia management level during anesthesia selection, intraoperative monitoring, three-stage management, prevention and treatment of post-perfusion syndrome, monitoring and management of coagulation function, volume monitoring and management, and body temperature monitoring management for liver transplantation should strengthen anesthesia management. Additionally, standard postoperative intensive care treatment should be recommended, and grafts and other vital organ functions should be monitored throughout the perioperative period to promote early postoperative recovery in patients with ACLF.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the value of the modified European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) score and Mehralivand grade based on biparametric MRI (bpMRI) in the assessment of extracapsular extension (ECE) in patients with prostate cancer (PCa). Methods: Data of 235 patients with postoperative pathology confirmed PCa, who underwent preoperative 3.0 T bpMRI examinations between March 2019 and March 2022 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were retrospectively evaluated, including 107 ECE positive and 128 ECE negative cases, aged [M (Q1, Q3)] [71 (66, 75)] years. Reader 1 and 2 assessed the ECE using the modified ESUR score and Mehralivand grade, and the receiver operating characteristic curve and Delong test were used to evaluate the performance of the two scoring methods. Then, the statistically significant variables were included in multivariate binary logistics regression analysis to obtain the risk factors, which were combined with the scores of reader 1 to establish combined models. The assessment ability of the two combined models and the two scoring methods were compared subsequently. Results: The AUC of Mehralivand grade in reader 1 were higher than that of the modified ESUR score in reader 1 and 2 [0.746 (95%CI: 0.685-0.800) vs 0.696 (95%CI: 0.633-0.754) and 0.691 (95%CI: 0.627-0.749), both P<0.05]. The AUC of Mehralivand grade in reader 2 was higher than that of the modified ESUR score in reader 1 and 2 [0.753 (95%CI: 0.693-0.807) vs 0.696 (95%CI: 0.633-0.754) and 0.691 (95%CI: 0.627-0.749), both P<0.05]. The AUC of the combined model 1 based on the modified ESUR score and the combined model 2 based on Mehralivand grade were higher than that in the separate modified ESUR score [0.826 (95%CI: 0.773-0.879) and 0.841 (95%CI: 0.790-0.892) vs 0.696 (95%CI: 0.633-0.754), both P<0.001], and also higher than that in the separate Mehralivand grade [0.826 (95%CI: 0.773-0.879) and 0.841 (95%CI: 0.790-0.892) vs 0.746 (95%CI: 0.685-0.800), both P<0.05]. Conclusion: Based on bpMRI, the Mehralivand grade showed better diagnostic performance for assessing ECE preoperatively in patients with PCa than the modified ESUR score. The combination model of scoring methods and clinical variables can further enhance the diagnostic certainty in the assessment of ECE.

Abstract
Background Increasing evidence suggests that gut dysbiosis can directly or indirectly affect the immune system through the brain-gut axis and play a role in the occurrence and development of Multiple sclerosis (MS). Oxymatrine (OMAT) has been shown to ameliorate the symptoms of MS in the classical experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model of MS, but whether its therapeutic role is through the correction of gut dysbiosis, is unclear. Methods The effects of OMAT on intestinal flora and short-chain fatty acids in EAE model mice were evaluated by 16S rRNA sequencing and GC-MS/MS, respectively, and the function change of the blood-brain barrier and intestinal epithelial barrier was further tested by immunohistochemical staining, Evans Blue leakage detection, and RT-qPCR. Results The alpha and beta diversity in the feces of EAE mice were significantly different from that of the control group but recovered substantially after OMAT treatment. Besides, the OMAT treatment significantly affected the gut functional profiling and the abundance of genes associated with energy metabolism, amino acid metabolism, the immune system, infectious diseases, and the nervous system. OMAT also decreased the levels of isobutyric acid and isovaleric acid in EAE mice, which are significantly related to the abundance of certain gut microbes and were consistent with the reduced expression of TNF-a, IL-6, and IL-1b. Furthermore, OMAT treatment significantly increased the expression of ZO-1 and occludin in the brains and colons of EAE mice and decreased blood-brain barrier permeability. Conclusion OMAT may alleviate the clinical and pathological symptoms of MS by correcting dysbiosis, restoring gut ecological and functional microenvironment, and inhibiting immune cell-mediated inflammation to remodel the brain-gut axis.

Abstract
This study is a first report on the identification of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Acinetobacter bereziniae among non-baumannii acinetobacters that had previously escaped automated laboratory detection, and characterize their clinical courses of infection at two tertiary-care hospitals in Shenzhen city, China (2015-2017). Herein, definitive identification by PCR was performed with universal and species-specific primers targeting 16S rDNA and rpoB genes, respectively, followed by Sanger sequencing and blast analysis. Antimicrobial susceptibility of A. bereziniae isolates was assessed accordingly. Three of the five identified A. bereziniae isolates exhibited carbapenem-resistance and were subjected to a multiplex PCR assay to detect drug-resistance genes. Sequences of the rpoB amplicon were aligned with curated sequences from global databases for phylogenetic analysis on evolutionary relations. Five clinical isolates of A. bereziniae were thereby re-identified, whose infections were primarily nosocomial. Automated identification and susceptibility testing systems (Phoenix-100 and VITEK 2) proved insufficient for discriminating A. bereziniae from other acinetobacters such as Acinetobacter baumannii and Acinetobacter guillouiae. Among these isolates, three exhibited carbapenem-resistant phenotypes indistinguishable from that of carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii. The carbapenem-resistant A. bereziniae isolates were subsequently confirmed to carry a bla NDM-1 (New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1) gene downstream of ISAba125. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that A. bereziniae isolates evolved slowly but independently in local habitats. A. bereziniae isolates are difficult to distinguish by traditional automated detection systems. PCR-based identification via amplification and sequencing of selected house-keeping genes provides sufficient resolution for discriminating the isolates.

Abstract
Glioblastoma is a lethal primary brain tumor with abundant immune-suppressive glioblastoma-associated macrophage (GAM) infiltration. Skewing immune suppressive GAMs towards an immune-activating phenotype represents a promising immunotherapeutic strategy against glioblastoma. Herein, we reported that genetic deletion of miRNA-processing enzyme Dicer in macrophages inhibited the growth of GL261 murine glioblastoma xenografts and prolonged survival of tumor-bearing mice. Single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of the tumor-infiltrating immune cells revealed that Dicer deletion in macrophages reduced the proportion of cell-cycling GAM cluster and reprogramed the remaining GAMs towards a proinflammatory activation state (enhanced phagocytotic and IFN-producing signature). Dicer-deficient GAMs showed reduced level of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK1 and CDK2) and increased expression of CDK inhibitor p27 Kip1, thus manifesting impaired proliferation. Dicer knockout enhanced phagocytotic activity of GAMs to eliminate GL261 tumor cells. Increased proinflammatory GAM clusters in macrophage Dicer-deficient mice actively interacted with tumor-infiltrating T cells and NK cells through TNF paracrine signaling to create a pro-inflammatory immune microenvironment for tumor cell elimination. Our work identifies the role of Dicer deletion in macrophages in generating an immune-activating microenvironment, which could be further developed as a potential immunotherapeutic strategy against glioblastoma.

Abstract
Tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs) abundantly infiltrate high-grade gliomas and orchestrate immune response, but their diversity in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-differential grade-4 gliomas remains largely unknown. This study aimed to dissect the transcriptional states, spatial distribution and clinicopathological significance of distinct monocyte-derived TAM (Mo-TAM) and microglia-derived TAM (Mg-TAM) clusters across glioblastoma-IDH-wildtype and astrocytoma-IDH-mutant-grade 4 (Astro-IDH-mut-G4). Single-cell RNA sequencing was performed on four cases of human glioblastoma and three cases of Astro-IDH-mut-G4. Cell clustering, single-cell regulatory network inference and gene set enrichment analysis were performed to characterize the functional states of myeloid clusters. Spatial distribution of TAM subsets was determined in human glioma tissues using multiplex immunostaining. The prognostic value of different TAM-cluster specific geneset was evaluated in the TCGA glioma cohort. Profiling and unbiased clustering of 24,227 myeloid cells from glioblastoma and Astro-IDH-mut-G4 identified 9 myeloid cell clusters including monocyte, six Mo/Mg-TAM subsets, dendritic cell, and proliferative myeloid cluster. Different Mo/Mg-TAM clusters manifest functional and transcriptional diversity controlled by specific regulons. Multiplex immunostaining of subset-specific markers identified spatial enrichment of distinct TAM clusters at peri-vascular/necrotic areas in tumour parenchyma or at tumour-brain interface. Glioblastoma harboured a substantially higher number of monocytes and Mo-TAM-inflammatory cluster, whereas Astro-IDH-mut-G4 was with higher proportion of TAM subset mediating antigen presentation. Glioblastomas with higher proportion of monocytes exhibited a mesenchymal signature, increased angiogenesis and worse patient outcome. Our findings provide insight into myeloid cell diversity and its clinical relevance in IDH-differential grade-4 gliomas, and may serve as a resource for immunotherapy development.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease that can easily lead to bone fractures. Berberine has been shown to be effective in treating osteoporosis. This study was conducted to identify the potential mechanism of berberine in treating this complaint. We screened potential targets of berberine and identified the osteoporosis-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the microarray dataset GSE56815. Protein–protein interaction (PPI) network construction, hub targets identification, and pathway enrichment were carried out to find the potential targets. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics studies were performed to verify the combination of berberine with its treatment-related central targets. In addition, SwissADME preliminarily evaluated the physicochemical properties of berberine. Through data mining, 23 osteoporosis-related targets of berberine were selected. PPI and module analyses suggested that AKT1, MAPK1, ESR1, AR, TP53, and PTGS2 are the core targets of berberine. Docking and molecular dynamics studies showed that berberine could stably bind to core proteins to form a protein–ligand complex. The enrichment analysis showed that the estrogen signaling pathway and thyroid hormone signaling pathway play important roles in curing osteoporosis. To sum up, berberine primarily acts on AKT1, MAPK1, ESR1, AR, TP53, and PTGS2, mainly regulating the estrogen and thyroid hormone signaling pathways to treat osteoporosis in a multi-target, multi-pathway, and multi-system manner.

Abstract
Objective: To explore accurate prenatal diagnosis, full-coverage graded counseling and follow-up for the fetus with cardiac birth defects (CBD). Methods: CBD fetus diagnosed prenatal by echocardiography from January 2018 to December 2020 in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital were enrolled. Fetal CBD was graded (Ⅰ-Ⅵ) according to prognosis and possible operation time after birth, and the classification criteria and common diseases included were proposed. After the prenatal grading counseling, the outcome of the fetus was followed-up. The induced labor rate, live birth rate, prenatal and postnatal ultrasound diagnosis coincidence rate and other indicators were calculated. The disease composition ratio, prognosis of fetus with different grades and the outcome of integrated treatment were analyzed. Results: The detection rate of fetal CBD was up to 16.2% (1 971/12 188), 30 cases of which were excluded. A total of 1 941 cases were included in this study, including 196 cases (10.1%) of gradeⅠ, 433 cases (22.3%) of gradeⅡ, 615 cases (31.7%) of grade Ⅲ, 261 cases (13.4%) of grade Ⅳ, 388 cases (20.0%) of gradeⅤ, 48 cases (2.5%) of grade Ⅵ. Grade Ⅱ and gradeⅢ (the operation time was within 1 year after birth) accounted for 54.0% (1 048/1 941). The distribution of some diseases in different grades had obvious proportion advantage, which was representative. Among 1 747 CBD fetus, 736 cases (induced labor rate 42.1%) chose to terminate pregnancy due to CBD. Of the 1 010 live births, 975 cases (96.5%) had the same prenatal and postnatal diagnosis, 3 cases were missed diagnosis and 32 cases were misdiagnosed. The diagnostic accuracy of live births with severe and complex congenital heart disease was 383 out of 389 (98.5%). A total of 258 cases have received surgery or intervention. The age at the time of surgery or intervention was different among grades(χ²=47.3,P<0.001). With the improvement of prognosis from gradeⅠ to Ⅴ, the live birth rate increased and the induced labor rate decreased accordingly; the difference between grades was significant(χ²=623.6,P<0.001). Conclusions: Prenatal diagnosis and graded counseling is important in the integrated model. Fetal CBD grading could refine post-natal treatment strategies, guide delivery decisions and become an evaluation standard.

Abstract
Epigenetic alterations have been functionally linked to ovarian cancer development and occurrence. The CXXC zinc finger protein 1 (CFP1) is an epigenetic regulator involved in DNA methylation and histone modification in mammalian cells. However, its role in ovarian cancer cells is unknown. Here, we show that CFP1 protein is highly expressed in human ovarian cancer tissues. Loss of CFP1 inhibited the growth of human ovarian cancer cells, promoted apoptosis, and increased senescence. CFP1 knockdown resulted in reduced levels of SETD1 (a CFP1 partner) and histone H3 trimethylation at the fourth lysine residue (H3K4me3). RNA-sequencing revealed that deletion of CFP1 resulted in mRNA reduction of bone marrow stromal cell antigen 2 (BST2). Bioinformatics analysis and chromatin immunoprecipitation showed that CFP1 binds to the promoter of BST2 and regulates its transcription directly. Overexpression of BST2 rescued the growth inhibitory effect of CFP1 loss. Furthermore, depletion of cullin-RING ubiquitin ligases 4 (CRL4) components ROC1 or CUL4A had significantly inhibited the expression of CFP1 and BST2 similar to MLN4924 treatment that blocked cullin neddylation and inactivated CRL4s. In conclusion, CFP1 promotes ovarian cancer cell proliferation and apoptosis by regulating the transcription of BST2, and the expression of CFP1 was affected by CRL4 ubiquitin ligase complex.

Abstract
Objective: To develop and validate a useful predictive model for large gestational age (LGA) in pregnancy using a machine learning (ML) algorithm and compare its performance with the traditional logistic regression model. Methods: Data were obtained from the National Free Preconception Health Examination Project in China, carried out in 220 counties of 31 provinces from 2010 to 2012, covering all rural couples with a planned pregnancy. This study included all teams of childbearing age who delivered newborns within 24-42 weeks of gestational age and their newborns. Ten different ML algorithms were used to establish LGA prediction models, and the prediction performance of these models was evaluated. Results: A total of 104 936 newborns were included, including 54 856 boys (52.3%) and 50 080 girls (47.7%). The incidence of LGA was 11.7% (12 279). The imbalance between the two groups was addressed by the under- sampling technique, after which the overall performance of the ML models was significantly improved. The CatBoost model achieved the highest area under the receiver-operating-characteristic curve (AUC) value of 0.932. The logistic regression model had the worst performance, with an AUC of 0.555. Conclusions: In predicting the risk for LGA in pregnancy, the ML algorithms outperform the traditional logistic regression method. Compared to other ML algorithms, CatBoost could improve the performance, and it deserves further investigation.

Abstract
Objective To study dietary patterns during the second trimester of pregnancy and to investigate the relationship between dietary patterns and gestational weight gain (GWG). Methods A prospective cohort study was conducted to select healthy singleton pregnant women at 8-14 weeks of gestation in a maternal and child health care institution in Chengdu city. Food items and quantities were collected at 8-14, 24-28, 32-36 weeks of gestation by using the 3-day 24-hour dietary recall and energy intakes were calculated. Dietary patterns during the second trimester were established by factor analysis and factor scores were calculated. The weight of pregnant women was measured at 8-14, 24-28 weeks of gestation and 1 week before delivery, and the total GWG and the GWG rates in the second and third trimesters were calculated. Multiple linear regression analyses were used to analyze the association between dietary patterns and GWG. Results A total of 1 004 samples were included. Three dietary patterns were identified: Milk-egg-whole grain pattern, Beverage-dessert pattern and Traditional pattern. The average total GWG was (13.2±4.5) kg. The average weight gain rate was (0.4±0.2) kg/week in the second trimester. The average weight gain rate was (0.5±0.3) kg/week in the third trimester. After adjusting for confounding factors including maternal age, body mass index before pregnancy, dietary energy intake, physical activity, multiple linear regression analysis showed that the factor score of Beverage-dessert pattern was positively associated with the total GWG and the weight gain rate in the third trimester ( β=0.370, 95% confidence interval ( CI): (0.103, 0.636), P=0.007; β=0.014, 95% CI: (0.000, 0.027), P=0.049, respectively), and the factor score of Traditional pattern was negatively associated with the total GWG ( β=-0.285, 95% CI: (-0.555, -0.015), P=0.039). There was no association between the Milk-egg-whole grain pattern and GWG. Conclusion Dietary patterns during the second trimester of pregnancy are associated with GWG. The Beverage-dessert pattern may increase the total GWG and weight gain rate in the third trimester. The traditional pattern may help control the total GWG.

Abstract
Objective: To observe the adverse reactions of Diphtheria, Tetanus, Acellular Pertussis and Haemophilus Influenzae Type b Combined Vaccine conjugate vaccine at the anterolateral thigh muscle, upper arm deltoid muscle and upper gluteal region. Methods: A total of 12 241 infants who were voluntarily vaccinated DTaP-Hib from April 2015 to April 2019 in Beijing were selected for the study. DTaP-Hib vaccine is recommended for 3, 4, 5 months of age for basic immunization and 18 to 24 months of age to strengthen immunization. Subjects were divided into the groups of lateral thigh muscle, the upper arm deltoid and upper gluteal region according to the actual inoculation sites. Adverse reactions were collected within 30 minutes and 7 days after each does of vaccination at different sites and compared between three groups. The incidence of adverse reactions at the three different inoculation sites was compared by Chi-square test. Results: A total of 12 241 infants and toddlers received combined DTaP-Hib and 35 027 doses of DTaP-Hib were investigated. The number and of lateral thigh muscles, upper arm deltoids and gluteal muscles were 3 461 infants and 11 129 doses, 2 659 infants and 7 957 doses, 6 121 infants and 15 941 doses respectively. A total of 2 489 adverse reactions occurred. The incidence of adverse reactions was 7.11%. The incidence of adverse reactions in deltoid muscle of upper arm was 9.69%(771 doses), which was higher than that in gluteal muscle (7.58%, 1 211 doses) and anterolateral muscle of thigh (4.56%, 507 doses). The incidence of mild, moderate and severe adverse reactions in the upper arm deltoid group were higher than those in the other two groups. The incidence rates were 4.85% (386 doses), 3.77% (300 doses) and 1.07% (85 doses) respectively. The differences between groups were statistically significant(P<0.001). The total adverse reactions of the three doses of basic immunization and the fourth dose of enhanced immunization had the same trend in different parts. The incidence of adverse reactions was in the order of the upper arm deltoid injection, upper gluteal injection and lateral thigh muscle injection from high to low. The differences were statistically significant (P<0.001). Conclusion: The incidence of adverse reactions of DTaP-Hib vaccination in three different sites was low, which confirmed that the DTaP-Hib vaccination got expected safety regardless of the sites of inoculation. The lateral femoral muscle group had the lowest incidence of adverse reactions, hence it should be preferred as the inoculation site of DTaP-Hib vaccination.

Abstract
Background Wnt-inducible signaling pathway protein 2 (WISP2) is a wnt1-induced signaling pathway protein 2. Although studies indicate that WISP2 may promote the development of various tumors, its role in ovarian cancer remains unclear. The objective of the current study was to analyze the effects of WISP2 on the proliferation and migration of ovarian cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. Results Immunohistochemistry and western blotting indicated that WISP2 was highly expressed in various ovarian cancer tissues and cell lines, but weakly expressed in normal ovary tissue. WISP2 deletion inhibited cell growth, clone formation, and migration of ovarian cancer cells while promoting cell apoptosis and affecting the cell cycle. This growth inhibitory effect caused by WISP2 loss is due to the inhibition of phosphorylated extracellular signal-related kinase (p-ERK)1/2, as well as CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein α (CEBPα) and CEPBβ. In addition, WISP2 deletion also activated the Yes-associated protein (YAP). Conclusion WISP2 deletion inhibits ovarian cancer cell proliferation by affecting ERK signaling pathways.

Abstract
Immunocastration (vaccination against Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)) has been regarded as a friendly substitution to physical castration in animals. To date, a few studies have reported the use of Improvac for immunocastration in boar and one study in broiler chickens; however, there is an apparent dearth of scientific evidence regarding the application of Improvac for immunocastration in birds. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of Improvac-based immunocastration on testosterone levels and spermatogenesis in broiler chickens and the effects of Improvac on the expression of genes related to testosterone biosynthesis and metabolism as well as spermatogenesis. The birds were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 30 each): Control group (non-immunized), Early group (immunized with Improvac at week 3), Late group (immunized with Improvac at week 6), and Early + Late group (immunized with Improvac at weeks 3 and 6). Immunization with Improvac significantly improved the average daily gain compared to the Control group. Of note, following Improvac vaccination, the reproductive efficiency was significantly decreased in male broiler chickens. Furthermore, parameters such as the serum testosterone concentration, spermatogenesis, and the expression levels of genes related to testosterone metabolism (Cyp17A1, Cyp19, HSD3B1, and HSD17B3) and spermatogenesis (Cyclin A1 and Cyclin A2) were significantly reduced in the immunized groups compared to the Control group. Taken together, these findings reveal that immunization against GnRH can be achieved, at least partially, in male broiler chickens. The results of our study also support the hypothesis of using Improvac as an alternative solution to caponization, with considerably improved animal welfare.

Abstract
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) would do serious damage to multiple systems, while coplanar polychlorinated biphenyls, the most toxic member of the family, has been widely taken into consideration. In this study, ICR mice were fed with different doses of PCB126 to explore the underlying molecular mechanisms on immunotoxicity. The results showed that PCB126 caused immunosuppression as evidenced by inhibiting the ratios of thymus and spleen weights, changing the organizational structure and decreasing levels and mRNA expression of TNF-α, IFN-γ and IL-2. PCB126 inhibited the SOD activity and spurred the accumulation of MDA in spleen and thymus. Meanwhile, it also disturbed the Nrf2 signaling pathway as evidenced by up-regulating the mRNA expression of Nrf2 and Keap1. Additionally, a remarkable reduction in the mRNA expression of AhR and enhancement in the mRNA expression of Cyp1 enzymes (Cyp1a1, Cyp1a2 and Cyp1b1) were observed, which increased the ROS levels. PCB126 could increase protein expression of Bax, Caspase-3, Caspase-8 and Caspase-9, while the protein expression of Bcl-2 was decreased. In summary, the results indicated that PCB126 modulated the AhR signaling pathway, which interacted with apoptosis and oxidative stress to induce immunotoxicity, enrich the immunotoxicological mechanisms of PCB126.

Abstract
Effective delivery of chemotherapeutic agents to tumors is a critical objective of improved cancer therapy. Traditional antiangiogenic therapy aims at eradicating tumor blood vessels, but the subsequently reduced blood perfusion may limit the drug amount delivered into the tumor and potentially lead to tumor hypoxia, which has been proved to be unable to meet the therapeutic expectations. “Shexiang Baoxin Pill” (SBP) is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) used in clinical treatment of cardiovascular diseases, which has the pharmacological effect of pro-angiogenesis demonstrated recently. In this study, we disclosed our finding that SBP could enhance the effective treatment performance of gemcitabine (GEM) while minimizing the toxic side effects caused by GEM. Mechanistically, SBP increased tumor angiogenesis, blood perfusion, vascular permeability, and vessel dilation, which subsequently favored the delivery of GEM to the tumor lesion. Moreover, combined treatment with SBP and GEM could modify tumor microenvironment and consequently overcome multidrug resistance, and this combination therapy is also suitable for combination of SBP with some other chemotherapeutic drugs as well. These results suggest that combining SBP with chemotherapeutic agents achieves better treatment efficiency, which can open an avenue for expanding the combined treatment of anti-cancer chemotherapeutic drugs with TCM.

Abstract
Prostaglandins (PGs) are early and key contributors to chronic neurodegenerative diseases. As one important member of classical PGs, PGA1 has been reported to exert potential neuroprotective effects. However, the mechanisms remain unknown. To this end, we are prompted to investigate whether PGA1 is a useful neurological treatment for Alzheimer's disease (AD) or not. Using high-throughput sequencing, we found that PGA1 potentially regulates cholesterol metabolism and lipid transport. Interestingly, we further found that short-term administration of PGA1 decreased the levels of the monomeric and oligomeric β-amyloid protein (oAβ) in a cholesterol-dependent manner. In detail, PGA1 activated the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARγ) and ATP-binding cassette subfamily A member 1 (ABCA1) signalling pathways, promoting the efflux of cholesterol and decreasing the intracellular cholesterol levels. Through PPARγ/ABCA1/cholesterol-dependent pathway, PGA1 decreased the expression of presenilin enhancer protein 2 (PEN-2), which is responsible for the production of Aβ. More importantly, long-term administration of PGA1 remarkably decreased the formation of Aβ monomers, oligomers, and fibrils. The actions of PGA1 on the production and deposition of Aβ ultimately improved the cognitive decline of the amyloid precursor protein/presenilin1 (APP/PS1) transgenic mice.

Abstract
This meta-analysis aimed to summarize the association between anthocyanin consumption and the risk of colorectal cancer. All relative articles were located on online databases, including PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library as of June 11, 2018. Risk ratios (RRs) or odds ratio and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated through the STATA 12.0 software package. A total of seven studies were included in the meta-analysis. A significant inverse association was found between total anthocyanin consumption and colorectal cancer risk (RR = 0.78; 95% CI, 0.64-0.95). Likewise, there was significant evidence of a relationship between anthocyanin intake and colorectal cancer in the colon site (RR = 0.81; 95% CI, 0.71-0.92); men (RR = 0.88; 95% CI, 0.81-0.95), and case-control studies (RR = 0.69; 95% CI, 0.60-0.78). A dose-response relationship was not found in this meta-analysis. The Grades of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation quality in our study was very low. This meta-analysis indicates that anthocyanin consumption is inversely associated with the risk of colorectal cancer. Anthocyanins may play an active role in the prevention of colorectal cancer. Key teaching points: Some epidemiological studies found an inverse correlation between the high consumption of anthocyanins and low risk of colorectal cancer. Because of this structure, anthocyanins/anthocyanidins have a powerful capability of donating electrons, which can be characterized as antioxidant properties. Anthocyanins can also inhibit colon cancer by interfering in the cell cycle and inducing the effect of anti-proliferation and apoptosis. The formation of cytoplasmic vacuoles in cells also indicates that anthocyanins may induce autophagy. From the findings of nonrandomized controlled trials, anthocyanins may play an active role in the prevention of colorectal cancer.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the association between gestational weight gain (GWG) and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Methods: A prospective study was conducted among 1 220 healthy singleton pregnant women in the first trimester of pregnancy, from Chengdu city, Sichuan province. Pre-gestational body mass and other basic information were collected through a set of questionnaires. Weight at the last week before delivery was measured and GWG was classified by IOM criteria (2009). Related information on pregnancy outcomes was collected after delivery, through the hospital information system. Multiple non-conditional logistic regression models were used to test the association between GWG and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Results: In total, data on 1 045 pregnant women were analyzed. Compared with adequate GWG, excessive GWG was associated with the increased risks of cord entanglement and large for gestational age (OR=1.641, 95%CI: 1.197-2.252; OR=1.678, 95%CI: 0.132-2.488), respectively. Additionally, when compared with the adequate GWG, insufficient GWG was associated with the increased risk of preterm delivery (OR=3.189, 95%CI: 1.604-6.341). Conclusions: Both excessive and insufficient GWG appeared associated with the pregnancy outcomes. Weight monitoring should be strengthened for pregnant women to reduce related risks on adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the level of moderate-to-vigorous physical activities (MVPA) and its relationship with gestational weight gains (GWG) in the second and the last trimesters of pregnancy. METHODS A prospective study was conducted in Chengdu on 362 healthy pregnant women at the 24-28 gestation weeks who delivered a singleton. Demographic data and pre-pregnancy body mass were collected using a questionnaire. Weight gains at the gestation weeks of 24-28 and 32-36 were measured for the first two trimesters and the last trimester of pregnancy. The Denmark self-reported physical activity scale was used for measuring the duration and intensity of physical activities. Multiple linear regression models were established to determine the relationship between MVPA and GWG. RESULTS The last trimester had lower average daily MVPA 〔(0.76±0.93) h〕 compared with the second trimester 〔(1.61±1.61) h, t=9.056, P<0.001〕. About 74.6% of the participants met the PA recommendations for the second trimester, compared with 60.5% for the last trimester (χ2=16.387, P<0.001). The participants experienced an average GWG of (7.36±3.78) kg during the first two trimesters, and (5.80±2.57) kg during the last trimester, corresponding to a growth rate of (0.30±0.15) kg/week for the first two trimesters and (0.51±0.22) kg/week for the last trimester. Compared with the most inactive group, the participants with medium PA experienced less GWG 〔(5.34±2.91) kg vs.(6.26±2.54) kg, P<0.05〕 and a lower GWG rate 〔(0.48±0.26) kg/week vs.(0.56±0.20) kg/week, P<0.05〕 during the last trimester. Age, gestational week, ethnicity, pre-pregnant BMI, GDM, pre-pregnant smoking and employment were associated with GWG and the GWG rates during the first two trimesters and the third trimester (P<0.05). Compared with the most inactive group, low 〔-0.358(-0.691--0.026)〕 and medium 〔-0.762(-1.486- -0.037)〕 PA were associated with lower GWG during the last trimester. Moderate PA was associated with a lower GWG rate 〔-0.071(-0.133--0.008)〕 after adjustment for gestational age, energy intake, pre-pregnancy BMI and other potential confounders. CONCLUSIONS Insufficient physical activities are a serious problem in the pregnant women of Chengdu over the last two trimesters. Appropriate MVPA in the last trimester of pregnancy may reduce GWG and GWG rates.

Abstract
Traditional glucose-lowering chemical agents, including various types of insulin and insulin secretagogues, insulin sensitizers, gliptins, etc., are based on diabetic pathogenesis of insulin resistance (IR) and islet insufficiency. Numerous evidence-based medical studies have shown that these traditional hypoglycemic chemical agents do not provide cardiovascular benefit to patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and may even increase the risk of all-cause mortality. Based on research evidence published to date, these studies show that overload of energy could increase the incidence and prevalence of T2DM, and reduction in the heat load can significantly reduce the incidence of T2DM. Therefore, the essence of T2DM is heat overload, meaning heat overload is the etiology of obese T2DM. At the same time, results of numerous studies show that heat overloading is the cause of IR. IR and islet dysfunction are protective factors in intervening with heat overload. These drugs, which are based on the mechanisms of IR and islet insufficiency, increase caloric reserve and cause or worsen obesity, which is equivalent to exacerbating the basic etiology and the cardiovascular risk factor of T2DM. Thus, a reasonable strategy for prevention and treatment of obese T2DM appears to promote the negative balance of calories and the elimination of caloric reserves. Chinese herbal medicines can promote negative balance of heat in many aspects, which can bring new hope for prevention and treatment of T2DM.

Abstract
Objective: To study the relations between famine exposure and the risk of chronic diseases as diabetes mellitus, obesity, hypertension, coronary heart disease and stroke in the population of Harbin. Methods: Our data was collected from the baseline survey-the China Kadoorie Biobank project (CKB) in Harbin. Retrospective cohort study design was used. Related risks on chronic diseases including diabetes mellitus, obesity, hypertension, coronary heart disease and stroke, were compared among the famine exposed or non-exposed people, respectively by logistic analysis method. Results: After adjusted for factors as age, sex, physical activity, smoking, alcohol intake, diet, family history of diseases, it appeared that the factor 'famine exposure' had increased the risks of diseases as obesity (OR=1.204, 95%CI: 1.104-1.313, P<0.01), hypertension (OR=1.315, 95%CI: 1.210-1.429, P<0.01) and coronary heart disease (OR=1.495, 95%CI: 1.369-1.632, P<0.01). The lower the age of population being exposed to famine, the greater the risk of the development of all kinds of chronic diseases. Conclusions: Famine exposure appeared a risk factor for obesity, hypertension, and coronary heart disease. It is of great significance to ensure the life-long nutrition of the people, especially in the early and adolescent stages, to prevent obesity, hypertension, and coronary heart disease in their later lives.

Abstract
Background & objectives The treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurysms (IAs) remains controversial; the ability to predict the risk of rupture for an aneurysm would be of clinical value. The aim of this study was to determine and evaluate the predictive value of the risk factors of IA rupture. Methods This retrospective study involved 379 consecutive patients with 441 aneurysms between August 2011 and July 2014. Based on clinical data and computed tomography angiography findings, the potential of risk factors to predict the aneurysmal rupture was assessed using statistical methods. Results Age, hypertension, heart disease, diabetes mellitus, cerebral atherosclerosis, aneurysms located at the internal carotid artery (ICA) and neck width (N) correlated negatively with rupture risk. Aneurysms located at the anterior communicating artery, bifurcation, irregularity, with a daughter sac, aneurysm height, maximum size, aspect ratio (AR), height-to-width ratio and bottleneck factor were significantly and positively correlated with rupture risk. The multivariate logistic regression model revealed that bifurcation aneurysm, irregular aneurysm and high AR increased the rupture risk, while cerebral atherosclerosis, aneurysm located on the ICA and greater N decreased the risk. Receiver operating characteristic analysis of AR curve values differed according to circumstances. Interpretation & conclusions Cerebral atherosclerosis, location in the ICA and larger N were the protective factors against aneurysm rupture, and IAs located at bifurcations, irregular shape and increased AR indicated a greater rupture risk.

Abstract
Excessive risk-taking behaviors have been implicated as a potential endophenotype for substance use disorders and psychopathological gambling. However, the genetic and environmental influences on risk taking and the risk-related brain activations remain unclear. This study investigated the heritability of risk taking and the genetic influence on individual variation in risk-related brain activation. The Balloon Analogue Risk Task was used to assess individuals’ risk-taking behavior. In a sample of 244 pairs of young adult twins, we found that there was a moderate heritability (41%) of risk taking. Using voxel-level analysis, we found a moderate genetic influence on risk-related brain activation. We also found a moderate genetic correlation between risk-taking behavior and risk-related brain activation in the left insula, right striatum, and right superior parietal lobule in the active-choice condition. The present study provides important evidence for the genetic correlation between risk-taking behavior and risk-related brain activation.

Abstract
Panax notoginsenoside saponins Rb1 (PNS-Rb1) is an important active ingredient of panax notoginseng for effective treatment of cerebrovascular diseases. However, the mechanism underlying its actions in the state of cerebral ischemia is still unclear. We asked whether the potential neuroprotection of PNS-Rb1 on the brain is due to, at least partially, its modulation of AkT/mTOR/PTEN signalling pathway along with down-regulation of caspase-3 in rats subjected to phototrombic stroke. To test this hypothesis, rats with induced photothrombotic stroke were treated with PNS-Rb1 (applied in three different doses, 25 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg,100 mg/kg, respectively) or saline, while sham operated rats injected with saline were used as the control. Our results indicate that PNS-Rb1 significantly alleviated the morphological lesion concomitant with improvement of cognitive and sensorimotor deficits induced by ischemic stroke. Moreover, immunohistochemistry and Western blot analyses showed that PNS Rb1 in a dose dependent manner increased the expressions of P-Akt, P-mTOR and reduced P-PTEN and caspase-3. The present study suggests that the improvement of cognitive and sensorimotor deficits by PNS-Rb1 is made, at least partially, by the modulation of the Akt/mTOR/PTEN signalling pathway.

Abstract
Adductor canal block (ACB) is an effective analgesic alternative to femoral nerve block after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The aim of the present study was to investigate whether addition of dexamethasone to ropivacaine for ACB is able to prolong analgesia and reduce pain. Study participants were randomized into groups receiving ACB with either 0.5% ropivacaine + normal saline (control group; n=93) or 0.5% ropivacaine + 8 mg dexamethasone (dexamethasone group; n=93). All patients were subjected to identical peri-operative management. Patients were assessed for the duration of analgesia by the return of pinprick sensation. A numerical rating scale, ranging from 0 to 10, was used to assess post-operative pain at 6, 12, 18, 24 and 48 h. Opioid use was recorded. Serum C-reactive protein and interleukin-6 levels were measured at 3, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h after surgery. The results revealed that the duration of sensory block was significantly longer in the dexamethasone group (23.42±3.35 vs. 14.67±2.96 h in control group, P<0.05). The dexamethasone group also had significantly lower pain scores at 6, 12, 18 and 24 h after surgery (all P<0.001), and at 48 h, pain was comparable in the two groups. Reduction in post-operative pain was associated with a decrease in serum C-reactive protein. Morphine use in the first 24 h after surgery was also lower in the dexamethasone group (4.23±1.80 vs. 8.42±2.44 mg in control group, P<0.05). In conclusion, addition of dexamethasone to ropivacaine for ACB was able to prolong the duration of analgesia and decreased early post-operative pain following TKA.

Abstract
Background: Hypoxia was a common feature for accelerating tumor metastasis by both inducting epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of tumor cells and polarization of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). The association and roles between hypoxia, EMT and TAMs in the biological behavior of gastric cancer (GC) for the time being recurrence is unclear. Material and methods: hypoixa by expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α), polarized functional status of infiltrated TAMs by immunohistochemical staining of CD68 and CD163, and the expression of E-cadherin as EMT property had been evaluated in 236 patients consecutive with histologically confirmed GC. Clinical significance was assessed for all these patients. Results: High expression of HIF-1α was found in patients with aggressive features, especially for recurrent patients. High infiltration of TAMs and abnormal expression of EMT-marker were also related to aggressive characteristics and predicted poor prognosis in GC. Meanwwhile, there existed a significant correlation among expression of HIF-1α, infiltration of TAMs and EMT marker in GC tissues. Multivariate Cox analysis revealed that high expression of HIF-1α combined TAMs infiltration were independent prognostic factors for disease-specific survival rate. Conclusion: HIF-1α is an unfavorable indicator for prognosis, may promote tumor progression through the induction of EMT and establishment of a pro-tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment. Further investigation into the therapeutic effects of blocking hypoxia is possible a potential strategy for GC treatment.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the comprehensive nutritional status and diet behavior of middle aged and elderly women with osteoporosis, and thereby to explore the relationship between diet behavior and comprehensive nutritional status. Methods: 311 middle-aged and elderly women with osteoporosis in Chengdu were included in this study. Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) was applied to assess their comprehensive nutritional status. Information of social-demographic characteristics and diet behavior (about meals, snacks and water drinking, etc.) of the subjects was collected by questionnaire. Chi square test was used to assess the differences in nutritional status among patients who have different eating behaviors. Logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between diet behaviors and comprehensive nutritional status. Results: The mean MNA score of subjects was 25.8±2.5. 20.3% (63/311) of the subjets were at risk of potential malnutrition, but there was no malnourished subjects found. 46.9% (46/311) of the subjects were in good appetite. 95.2% (296/311) of them had a fixed food intake each meal. 65.8% (198/311) of them had snacks every day, and the most common choice was fruit (86.4% (248/287)). 54.8% (165/311) of them had initiative drinking water habits, and the most common choice was plain boiled water (79.9%, 246/308). 76.5% (238/311) of them had daily portable water less than 1 500 ml. After adjusting the effects of age, occupation and education level, bad appetite (OR=3.50, 95%CI: 1.18-10.62), unfixed food intake (OR=7.27, 95%CI: 1.40-35.83), and seldom or never intake of snack (OR=3.71, 95%CI: 1.42-9.72) were risk factors for malnutrition risk, while tea drinking was protective factor(OR=0.31, 95%CI: 0.11-0.93). Conclusion: Risk of potential malnutrition and unhealthy diet behavior among the middle aged and elderly women with osteoporosis should be paid more attention. Unhealtghy diet behavior has a negative effect on their comprehensive nutritional status.

Abstract
The prevention of chemotherapy‐induced nausea and vomiting was one of the most challenging supportive care issues in oncology, especially to highly emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC). A total of 645 patients were randomized into fosaprepitant group (fosaprepitant/placebo 150 mg d1 in combination with granisetron and dexamethasone) or aprepitant group (aprepitant/placebo 125 mg d1; 80 mg d2‐d3 plus granisetron and dexamethasone).The primary endpoint was the percentage of patients who had a complete response (CR) over the entire treatment course (0–120 hr, overall phase [OP]). It was assessed by using a non‐inferiority model, with a non‐inferiority margin of 10%. The difference of the CR rate was compared between two groups with chi‐square analysis. Six hundred and twenty‐six patients were included in the per protocol analysis. The percentage of patients with a CR in the fosaprepitant group was not inferior to that in the aprepitant group (90.85% versus 94.17%, p = .1302) during OP. Whether the cisplatin‐based chemotherapy or not, the CR rate of the fosaprepitant group was not inferior to that of the aprepitant group. Both regimens were well tolerated. The most common adverse event was constipation. Fosaprepitant provided effective and well‐tolerated control of nausea and vomiting associated with HEC in Chinese patients.

Abstract
Background: As the most predominant tumor-infiltrating immune cells, tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are associated with poor outcome in multiple solid cancers and play important roles in cancer progression. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) may account for metastasis and recurrence after cancer therapy. However, the association between TAMs and CSCs is not clarified in gastric cancer (GC). The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of TAMs on CSCs in GC and find out the risk factors to predict recurrence and prognosis. Material and methods: This study included consecutive 236 patients with histologically confirmed primary GC. TAMs marker CD163 and CSCs-related proteins were detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC) in GC tissues and their prognostic values were all investigated. Results: High expression of CD163+ TAMs was found in patents with aggressive characteristics, especially for patents with recurrence. There existed a significant correlation between high expression of CD163 and CSCs-related markers in GC tissues. In patients with recurrence, high-expression of CD163 TAMs was an independent worse prognostic factor. Conclusion: High infiltration of TAMs was related to aggressive behavior, associated with aberrant expression of CSC markers, and an independent worse prognostic factor in GC. Targeting TAMs may be a potential treatment strategy for GC, including patients with recurrence.

Abstract
Objective: To detect the alterations of telomerase activity and the expression for oxidative stress responsive genes related with senescence during cellular replicative senescence and hydrogen peroxide-induced premature senescence in human embryonic lung fibroblasts (HELFs) in vitro. Methods: The HELFs were divided into young cells (22 population doubling levels, 22PDL) , mid-aged cells (35PDL) and replicative senes-cent cells (49PDL) and premature senescent cells induced by H(2)O(2)(premature senescence, PS). The telomerase activity was detected by ELISA assay during cellular replicative and premature senescence. The mRNA level of oxidative stress responsive genes related with senescence for Foxo1, Foxo3, Pdx1, apoA-I and MMP1 was per-formed by RT-Q-PCR separately. Results: The mRNA level for Foxo1, Foxo3, apoA-I and Pdx1 was decreased separately during cellular replicative senescence compared to that in the young-stage cells with statistical signifi-cance (P<0.05). The expression of MMP1 was up-regulated 5.1-fold obviously (P<0.05). In premature senes-cence, the mRNA level was only decreased for Foxo1, Foxo3 and apoA-I, but up-regulated 2.3-fold and 6.2-fold for Pdx1 and MMP1 respcetively vs 22PDL significantly (P<0.05). The telomerase activity in young cells was not detected, and it increased in mid-aged cells and replicative senescence stages during cellular replicative se-nescence as compared to 22PDL with statistical significance (P<0.05). The telomerase activity in premature se-nescence was highly active. Conclusion: The expression for genes related with senescence has differences be-tween replicative and premature senescence and hydrogen peroxide modifies their expression levels. The telomer-ase activity has been going up with increased PDLs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the influence of sleep status in early pregnant women on the occurrence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). METHODS In this prospective study,542 pregnant women in early pregnancy were selected as subjects.The sleep time,insomnia,pre-gestational body mass and basic information of the subjects were collected by the trained investigators through questionnaire.At the 24th to 28th pregnant week,the body mass of each subject was measured and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was conducted.The diagnosis of GDM was followed the guidelines of diagnose and treatment of gestational diabetes mellitus in China (2014).A non-conditional logistic regression method was adopted to analyze the correlation between sleep status of early pregnant women and the occurrence of GDM. RESULTS The numbers of subjects in sleep deficiency group,sleep sufficiency group and sleep excessive group were 16 (2.95%),268 (49.45%) and 258 (47.60%),respectively.The incidences of GDM for sleep deficiency group,sleep sufficient group,and sleep excessive group were 62.50%(10/16),25.75%(69/268) and 22.09% (57/258),respectively,the difference was statistically significant (χ2=11.280,P<0.05).Compared with either sleep sufficiency or sleep excessive group,sleep deficiency group had higher GDM occurrence rate with statistically significant (χ2=8.410,11.218,P<0.017).Insomnia subjects in early pregnancy were 137 (25.28%).The incidences of GDM in insomnia group and normal group were 32.12% and 22.72% respectively,the difference was statistically significant (χ2=4.813, P<0.05).After adjusting the confounding factors [age,education,pre-pregnant body mass index (BMI),gained body mass in early and medium pregnancy,family history of type-2 diabetes,gravidity,parity,smoke,drink,exercise and occupation],non-conditional logistic regression results show that sleep deficiency for early pregnant women was an independent risk factor for the occurrence of GDM [odds ratio (OR)=7.38,95% confidence interval (CI): 2.25-24.17].However,the association between insomnia and the occurrence of GDM was not found. CONCLUSIONS Sleep deficiency in early pregnancy may be a risk factor for the occurrence of GDM.

Abstract
Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) is a widely used molecular marker technique. As traditional RAPD has poor reproducibility and productivity, we previously developed an improved RAPD method (termed RAMP-PCR), which increased the reproducibility, number of bands, and efficiency of studies on polymorphism. To further develop the efficiency of this method, we used high-GC content primers for improved RAMP-PCR with DNA samples from Lonicera japonica. Comparison of amplification profiles obtained by standard RAPD primers with those obtained by regular PCR and RAMP-PCR, and high-GC primers with regular PCR and RAMP-PCR showed that the average number of bands and polymorphisms per primer gradually and significantly increased (from 6.4 to 15.0 and from 4.6 to 10.2, respectively). Cluster dendrograms showed similar results, indicating that this new method is consistent and reproducible. A total of 22 samples from different species, including plants, animals, and humans, were used for RAMP-PCR with high-GC primers. Multiple bands were successfully amplified from all samples, demonstrating that this method is a reliable technique with consistent results and may be of general interest in studies on different genera and species. We developed highly effective DNA markers, which can provide a more effective and potentially valuable approach than traditional RAPD for the genetic identification of various organisms, particularly of medicinal plants.

Abstract
Objective To observe the effect of Dangua Recipe (DR) on adiponectin receptor 2 (AdipoR2) expression in liver of apolipoprotein E knockout (ApoE⁻¹⁻) diabetic mice. Methods Eight- week-old ApoE⁻¹⁻ mice were randomly divided into the model control group, the DR group, the pioglitazone group, and the combined treatment group. Besides, a C57 group was set up consisting of same age C57BL/ 6J mice. Streptozotocin (STZ) was injected to ApoE⁻¹⁻ mice in the four groups to induce diabetic model, and they were intervened by corresponding drugs. After 12 weeks the effect of DF on glucose-lipid metabolism was observed. mRNA and protein expressions of AdipoR2 in liver were detected. Histomorphological changes of the liver were observed by hematoxylineosin ( HE) staining, red Ο fat dyeing, and Masson staining, respectively. Results Contents of fasting blood glucose (FBG) , total cholesterol (TC) , and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were reduced more significantly in the DR group than in the model group. DR could promote liver expression of AdipoR2 mRNA and protein expressions in ApoE⁻¹⁻ mice, which was significantly higher than that of the model group (P <0. 01) , and better than that of pioglitazone (P <0. 05, P <0. 01). DR could improve ectopic fat deposition and fibrosis of liver cells in diabet- ic ApoE⁻¹⁻ mice significantly, which was better than that of the pioglitazone group and the combined treatment group. Conclusion DR could significantly improve liver lipid metabolism , and reduce liver fat deposition and fibrosis, which might possibly be associated with promoting AdipoR2 expression in liver.

Abstract
Our study aimed to investigate the role of 2 ERCC5 promoter SNPs (rs2094258 and rs751402) in the development of gastric cancer in the Chinese population. The present hospital-based case-control study consisted of 155 patients with gastric cancer and 246 healthy controls recruited between March 2012 and December 2014. Genotyping for the rs2094258 and rs751402 polymorphic sites was carried out using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Statistical analyses were conducted using the SPASS version 16.0 software (SPSS, Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). As determined by the chi-square test, there was a significant difference in the genotype distributions of rs751402 between patients and controls (X2 = 6.74, P = 0.03). By unconditional logistic regression analysis, we observed that the TT genotype in rs751402 was significantly associated with increased risk to gastric cancer as compared with the CC genotype, and the adjusted OR (95%CI) was 2.17 (1.15-4.09). Moreover, subjects carrying the T allele in rs751402 had elevated risk of developing gastric cancer when compared with those carrying the C allele, with an adjusted OR value (95%CI) of 1.47 (1.09-1.99). In conclusion, we suggest that the ERCC5 rs751402 gene polymorphism may influence the susceptibility to gastric cancer in the Chinese population.

Abstract
Sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers were further developed from high-GC primer RAMP-PCR-amplified fragments from Lonicera japonica DNA by molecular cloning. The four DNA fragments from three high-GC primers (FY-27, FY-28, and FY-29) were successfully cloned into a pGM-T vector. The positive clones were sequenced; their names, sizes, and GenBank numbers were JYHGC1-1, 345 bp, KJ620024; YJHGC2-1, 388 bp, KJ620025; JYHGC7-2, 1036 bp, KJ620026; and JYHGC6-2, 715 bp, KJ620027, respectively. Four novel SCAR markers were developed by designing specific primers, optimizing conditions, and PCR validation. The developed SCAR markers were used for the genetic authentication of L. japonica from its substitutes. This technique provides another means of developing DNA markers for the characterization and authentication of various organisms including medicinal plants and their substitutes.

Abstract
In our previous study, a polysaccharide was extracted from Schisandra Chinensis (Trucz.) Baill and found with anti-diabetic effects. The aim of this study was to investigate the anti-diabetic effects of the low weight molecular polysaccharide (SCPP11) purified from crude Schisandra polysaccharide and illustrate the underlying mechanism in buffalo rat liver cells. The insulin resistance model of BRL cells was established by incubating with insulin solution for 24h. The effects of SCPP11 on regulating related protein and mRNA expression in an insulin and AMPK signal pathway were investigated by western blot and RT-PCR analysis. SCPP11 showed no cytotoxicity to BRL cells and could improve the glucose consumption in BRL cells. SCPP11 increased the protein expression of Akt, p-AMPK and GLUT-4 in BRL cells. Moreover, SCPP11 could enhance the mRNA expression levels of IRS-1, PI3K, Akt, GLUT-4, AMPKα and PPAR-γ in BRL cells at the same time. In conclusion, SCPP11 possessed effects in improving glucose consumption by up-regulating the expression of GLUT-4 which might occur via insulin and AMPK signal pathway and could be a potential functional food to prevent and mitigate the insulin resistance condition.

Abstract
Social dysfunction is a prominent source of distress and disability in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) but is commonly omitted from current clinical studies, although some researchers propose an evolutionary strategy to understand these negative outcomes. Limited knowledge about the neural basis of social dysfunction in MDD results from traditional paradigms, which lack insights into social interactions. Game theoretical modeling offers a new tool for investigating social-interaction impairments in neuropsychiatric disorders. This review first introduces three widely used games from game theory and the major behavioral and neuroimaging findings obtained using these games in healthy populations. We also address the factors that modulate behaviors in games and their neural bases. We then summarize the current findings obtained by using these games in depressed patients and discuss the clinical implications of these abnormal game behaviors. Finally, we briefly discuss future prospects that may further elucidate the clinical use of a game theory paradigm in MDD.
