Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of posterior lumbar interbody fusion combined with Ponte osteotomy in the treatment of patients with degenerative scoliosis. Methods: The medical records and imaging data of degenerative scoliosis in department of orthopedics, Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 2013 to 2022 were retrospectively collected, and the shortest follow-up time was 1 year. A total of 38 patients were included, including 13 males and 25 females, aged 50-87(65.6±10.9) years old.The follow-up was12-119(43±20) months. Standing position full spine anteroposterior lateral X-ray examinations were performed on all patients preoperatively, postoperatively, and at latest follow-up. The length of hospital stay, complications, operation time, blood loss, instrumented segment, fusion segmen were recorded. The clinical scores and coronasagittal imaging indicators at three time points were compared. Results: The operation time was (274.5±70.5)min, and intraoperative blood loss was (619.2±93.5)ml. The coronal vertical axis was improved from (2.9±1.8)cm preoperatively to (1.2±1.0)cm postoperatively. The preoperative coronal Cobb angle was 16.6°±9.9° and the immediate postoperative correction was 6.4°±4.0°(t=-6.83, P<0.001). The difference was statistically significant (t=-6.12, P<0.001). The coronal Cobb Angle at the last follow-up was 5.7°±3.7°, and there was no significant orthopaedic loss at the last follow-up (t=-6.12, P<0.001).The sagittal vertical axis decreased from (5.6±3.9)cm preoperatively to (3.2±2.5) cm immediately after operation (t=-6.83,P<0.001), and was well maintained at the last follow-up[(2.7±1.8) cm,t=-7.77,P<0.001]. Lumbar lordosis increased from 21.8°±10.2° preoperatively to 35.8°±8.3° postoperatively(t=12.01, P<0.001)and 40.1°±8.6° at last follow-up(t=-10.21, P<0.001). Oswestry disability score (ODI score), visual analogue score (VAS) low back pain score and VAS leg pain score were also lower after surgery than before surgery (all P<0.05). Conclusion: Posterior lumbar interbody fusion combined with Ponte osteotomy can significantly improve the coronal and sagittal plane deformity and postoperative functional score in adult patients with degenerative scoliosis.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the treatment effects of a stabilisation splint (SS) with and without arthroscopic disc repositioning (ADR) on condylar bone remodelling in adolescent patients with anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADDwoR). Cone beam computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging were used to analyse condylar bone remodelling, condyle position, and disc position. Twenty-two temporomandibular joints of 14 patients who underwent ADR (age range 12-20 years; mean follow-up 12.5 ± 7.8 months) and 21 temporomandibular joints of 14 patients who did not undergo ADR (age range 13-20 years; mean follow-up 11.1 ± 5.1 months) were included. The change in bone volume (P < 0.001), rate of bone volume change (P < 0.001), and change in condyle height (P = 0.031) were significantly greater in patients with ADR than in those without ADR. The changes in posterior joint space (P = 0.013), superior joint space (P = 0.020), and ratio of condyle sagittal position (P = 0.013) were significantly greater in patients with ADR than in those without ADR. All discs in patients who underwent ADR and one disc in those who did not undergo ADR were backward repositioned. In conclusion, in adolescent patients with ADDwoR, ADR with SS therapy achieved better condyle and disc position than SS therapy alone, and also induced bone generation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The outcome of patients with resectable mucosal melanoma is poor. Toripalimab combined with axitinib has shown impressive results in metastatic mucosal melanoma with an objective response rate of 48.3% and a median progression-free survival of 7.5 months in a phase Ib trial. It was hypothesized that this combination administered in the neoadjuvant setting might induce a pathologic response in resectable mucosal melanoma, so we conducted this trial. PATIENTS AND METHODS This single-arm phase II trial enrolled patients with resectable mucosal melanoma. Patients received toripalimab 3 mg/kg once every 2 weeks (Q2W) plus axitinib 5 mg two times a day (b.i.d.) for 8 weeks as neoadjuvant therapy, then surgery and adjuvant toripalimab 3 mg/kg Q2W starting 2 ± 1weeks after surgery for 44 weeks. The primary endpoint was the pathologic response rate according to the International Neoadjuvant Melanoma Consortium recommendations. RESULTS Between August 2019 and October 2021, 29 patients were enrolled and received treatment, of whom 24 underwent resection. The median follow-up time was 34.2 months (95% confidence interval 20.4-48.0 months). The pathologic response rate was 33.3% (8/24; 4 pathological complete responses and 4 pathological partial responses). The median event-free survival for all patients was 11.1 months (95% confidence interval 5.3-16.9 months). The median overall survival was not reached. Neoadjuvant therapy was tolerable with 8 (27.5%) grade 3-4 treatment-related adverse events and no treatment-related deaths. Tissue samples of 17 patients at baseline and after surgery were collected (5 responders and 12 nonresponders). Multiplex immunohistochemistry demonstrated a significant increase in CD3+ (P = 0.0032) and CD3+CD8+ (P = 0.0038) tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes after neoadjuvant therapy, particularly in pathological responders. CONCLUSIONS Neoadjuvant toripalimab combined with axitinib in resectable mucosal melanoma demonstrated a promising pathologic response rate with significantly increased infiltrating CD3+ and CD3+CD8+ T cells after therapy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is the standard approach for lung cancer staging. However, its diagnostic utility for other mediastinal diseases might be hampered by the limited tissue retrieved. Recent evidence suggests the novel sampling strategies of forceps biopsy and cryobiopsy as auxiliary techniques to EBUS-TBNA, considering their capacity for larger diagnostic samples. METHODS This study determined the added value of forceps biopsy and cryobiopsy for the diagnosis of mediastinal diseases. Consecutive patients with mediastinal lesions of 1 cm or more in the short axis were enrolled. Following completion of needle aspiration, three forceps biopsies and one cryobiopsy were performed in a randomised pattern. Primary endpoints included diagnostic yield defined as the percentage of patients for whom mediastinal biopsy led to a definite diagnosis, and procedure-related complications. RESULTS In total, 155 patients were recruited and randomly assigned. Supplementing EBUS-TBNA with either forceps biopsy or cryobiopsy increased diagnostic yield, with no significant difference between EBUS-TBNA plus forceps biopsy and EBUS-TBNA plus cryobiopsy (85.7 % versus 91.6 %, P = 0.106). Yet, samples obtained by additional cryobiopsies were more qualified for lung cancer molecular testing than those from forceps biopsies (100.0 % versus 89.5 %, P = 0.036). When compared directly, the overall diagnostic yield of cryobiopsy was superior to forceps biopsy (85.7 % versus 70.8 %, P = 0.001). Cryobiopsies produced greater samples in shorter procedural time than forceps biopsies. Two (1.3 %) cases of postprocedural pneumothorax were detected. CONCLUSIONS Transbronchial mediastinal cryobiopsy might be a promising complementary tool to supplement traditional needle biopsy for increased diagnostic yield and tissue harvesting.

Abstract
Objective: To summarize the characteristics of multisystem deformities in patients with Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS) combined with congenital scoliosis (CS). Methods: Within the framework of the "Deciphering Disorders Involving Scoliosis and Comorbidities (DISCO)" research collaboration, a retrospective analysis was conducted on patients diagnosed with KFS and CS at Peking Union Medical College Hospital between April 2005 and August 2022. Patient data, including imaging examinations and medical records, were collected to summarize the spinal and associated deformities. Results: A total of 82 KFS patients with concurrent CS were included, comprising 42 males and 40 females. The average age was (12.8±8.9) years. Among the KFS patients, there were 31 cases of Type Ⅰ, 12 cases of Type Ⅱ, and 39 cases of Type Ⅲ. The most common location for the major curve of scoliosis was the mid-thoracic segment (42 cases, 51.2%). Hemivertebrae deformities were most frequently observed in the upper thoracic segment (31 cases, 60.8%). There were no statistically significant differences in age, gender, major curve Cobb angle, or region of hemivertebrae occurrence among the different types of KFS (all P>0.05). Apart from spinal vertebral deformities, intraspinal deformities had the highest comorbidity rate (33 cases, 40.2%). The subjects were divided into two groups based on the presence or absence of intraspinal deformity (absence as group G0, presence as group G1), there was a statistically significant difference in the main Cobb angle [M(Q1, Q3)] between the two groups, which was 45.0° (27.5°, 62.0°) and 60.0° (37.5°, 83.5°), respectively (P=0.044). Additionally, a portion of the patients had concurrent cardiovascular system abnormalities (13 cases, 15.9%), craniofacial-ocular-auricular abnormalities (8 cases, 9.8%), genitourinary system abnormalities (7 cases, 8.5%), and gastrointestinal abnormalities (2 cases, 2.4%). Conclusions: Patients with KFS combined with CS commonly present with a major curve of spinal deformity in the mid-thoracic segment and often have comorbidities involving multiple systems. When combined with intraspinal anomalies, the major curve exhibits a greater degree of curvature.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features, and molecular genetic alterations of metaplastic thymoma (MT). Methods: A total of ten MT cases, diagnosed from 2011 to 2021, were selected from the Department of Pathology of Jinling Hospital, Nanjing University Medical School, Nanjing, China for clinicopathological and immunohistochemical (IHC) examination and clinical follow-up. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), next-generation sequencing (NGS), and YAP1 C-terminus (YAP1-CT) IHC were performed to detect YAP1::MAML2 fusions. Results: There were four males and six females, ranging in age from 29 to 60 years (mean 50 years, median 54 years). Microscopically, all tumors showed a typical biphasic morphology consisting of epithelial components and gradually or abruptly transitioning spindle cell components. The two components were present in varying proportions in different cases. Immunophenotypically, the epithelial cells were diffusely positive for CKpan, CK5/6 and p63. The spindle cells were diffusely positive for vimentin and focally positive for EMA. TdT was negative in the background lymphocytes. Ki-67 proliferation index was less than 5%. YAP1 and MAML2 break-apart FISH analyses showed that all ten cases had narrow split signals with a distance of nearly 2 signal diameters and may be considered false-negative. Using YAP1::MAML2 fusion FISH assays, abnormal fusion signals were observed in all the ten cases. NGS demonstrated YAP1::MAML2 fusions in all eight cases with adequate nucleic acids; in two cases the fusions were detected by DNA sequencing and in eight cases by RNA sequencing. All ten cases of MT demonstrated loss of YAP1 C-terminal expression in epithelioid cells. Conclusions: MT is a rare and low-grade thymic tumor characterized by a biphasic pattern and YAP1::MAML2 fusions. Break-apart FISH assays may sometimes show false-negative results due to the proximity of YAP1 and MAML2, while YAP1 C-terminal IHC is a highly sensitive and specific marker for MT. Loss of YAP1 C-terminal expression can also be used to screen YAP1::MAML2 fusions for possible MT cases.

Abstract
Upadacitinib has received approval for the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD) with favorable response in clinical trials. However, real-world research on its efficacy remains relatively limited. To bridge this gap, we conducted a prospective cohort study involving 25 Chinese patients with moderate-to-severe AD. These patients received a daily dose of 15 mg of upadacitinib. Our objective was to assess the real-world efficacy of upadacitinib and its impact on the immune system. Clinical assessments were conducted at baseline, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks following treatment initiation. The findings revealed that upadacitinib treatment significantly improved the clinical scores of the patients. Regarding immunological markers, upadacitinib led to a significant reduction in peripheral blood eosinophils, as well as a decrease in neutrophil count. Furthermore, upadacitinib treatment resulted in an overall decrease in Th1, Th2, and Th17/22-type cytokines, as well as other inflammatory factors. Importantly, for the first time, we observed a notable reduction in both IL-22+CD4+ T cells and serum IL-22 levels in all treated patients, including those with recalcitrant AD who had previously shown inadequate responses to systemic treatments like dupilumab. Currently, international guidelines position upadacitinib as a second-line option following the failure of systemic treatments like dupilumab. Our findings provide valuable insights into the real-world effectiveness and immunological impacts of upadacitinib, which can aid in better understanding and implementation of the drug in clinical practice.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the diagnostic efficiency of conventional serum tumor markers and their combination with chest CT for stage ⅠA lung cancer. Methods: A total of 1 155 patients with stage ⅠA lung cancer and 200 patients with benign lung lesions (confirmed by surgery) treated at the Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from January 2016 to October 2020 were retrospectively enrolled in this study. Six conventional serum tumor markers [carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125), squamous cell carcinoma associated antigen (SCCA), cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA21-1), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), and gastrin-releasing peptide precursor (ProGRP)] and chest thin-slice CT were performed on all patients one month before surgery. Pathology was taken as the gold standard to analyze the difference of positivity rates of tumor markers between the lung cancer group and the benign group, the moderate/poor differentiation group and the well differentiation group, the adenocarcinoma group and the squamous cell carcinoma group, the lepidic and non-lepidic predominant adenocarcinoma groups, the solid nodule group and the subsolid nodule group based on thin-slice CT, and subgroups of ⅠA1 to ⅠA3 lung cancers. The diagnostic performance of tumor markers and tumor markers combined with chest CT was analyzed using the receiver operating characteristic curve. Results: The positivity rates of six serum tumor markers in the lung cancer group and the benign group were 2.32%-20.08% and 0-13.64%, respectively; only the SCCA positivity rate in the lung cancer group was higher than that in the benign group (10.81% and 0, P=0.022). There were no significant differences in the positivity rates of other serum tumor markers between the two groups (all P>0.05). The combined detection of six tumor markers showed that the positivity rate of the lung cancer group was higher than that of the benign group (40.93% and 18.18%, P=0.004), and the positivity rate of the adenocarcinoma group was lower than that of the squamous cell carcinoma group (35.66% and 47.41%, P=0.045). The positivity rates in the poorly differentiated group and moderately differentiated group were higher than that in the well differentiated group (46.48%, 43.75% and 22.73%, P=0.025). The positivity rate in the non-lepidic adenocarcinoma group was higher than that in lepidic adenocarcinoma group (39.51% and 21.74%, P=0.001). The positivity rate of subsolid nodules was lower than that of solid nodules (30.01% vs 58.71%, P=0.038), and the positivity rates of stageⅠA1, ⅠA2 and ⅠA3 lung cancers were 33.33%, 48.96% and 69.23%, respectively, showing an increasing trend (P=0.005). The sensitivity and specificity of the combined detection of six tumor markers in the diagnosis of stage ⅠA lung cancer were 74.00% and 56.30%, respectively, and the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.541. The sensitivity and specificity of the combined detection of six serum tumor markers with CT in the diagnosis of stage ⅠA lung cancer were 83.0% and 78.3%, respectively, and the AUC was 0.721. Conclusions: For stage ⅠA lung cancer, the positivity rates of commonly used clinical tumor markers are generally low. The combined detection of six markers can increase the positivity rate. The positivity rate of markers tends to be higher in poorly differentiated lung cancer, squamous cell carcinoma, or solid nodules. Tumor markers combined with thin-slice CT showed limited improvement in diagnostic efficiency for early lung cancer.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the efficacy of different targets low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for the treatment of tremor Parkinson's disease(PD). Method: A total of 82 patients with primary PD who were admitted to the Department of Neurology, Xin Hua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from April 1, 2020 to March 31, 2021 were prospectively collected. According to the clinical characteristics of major movement disorders, 82 patients with tremor type (TD) were selected to enroll.The patients were randomly divided into 3 groups at a 1∶1∶1 ratio according to the randomized coding sequence of the trial: the primary motor cortex (M1) group with 26 cases, the cerebellum group with 26 cases and the dual-site (M1, cerebellum) group with 30 cases. All patients were treated with 1 Hz low-frequency stimulation of the corresponding target once a day for 5 days a week for 2 weeks, a total of 10 times; The dosage remained unchanged during the treatment for all groups. Before and after 2 weeks' treatment, the patients were assessed with the Unified PD Rating Scale (UPDRS) and PD Quality of Life Questionnaire-39 (PDQ-39) without medication. Cortical excitability, namely transcranial magnetic stimulation motor evoked potential (TMS-MEP), [including resting motor threshold (rMT) and active motor threshold (aMT) examinations], timed up and go (TUG) and electromyographic tremor were conducted. Result: There were 82 patients, 39 males and 43 females, with an average age of (67±8) years. Before the treatment, there was no statistically significant difference in the evaluation indicators among the three groups (all P>0.05). After the treatment, the differences of the UPDRS-Ⅲ score [(38.9±2.5) vs (29.2±3.6) ], UPDRS tremor score [(23.7±2.1) vs (14.6±3.1) ], TUG time [(44.8±3.1) s vs (33.7±4.1) s], tremor amplitude [(480±126) μV vs (276±94) μV], PDQ-39 score [(51±13) vs (45±13) ], rMT [(36±17)% vs (43±13)%], and aMT [(26±16)% vs (31±12)%] were statistically significant (all P<0.01) from those before the treatment. There was no statistical difference in the above factors between the M1 group and cerebellum group (all P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in tremor peak frequency among the three groups before and after the treatment (all P>0.05). Conclusions: Dual-site low-frequency rTMS can improve PD tremor, while M1 or cerebellar low-frequency rTMS does not significantly improve PD tremor. Its mechanism may be to improve PD tremor symptoms by regulating cortical excitability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the prolonged median disease-free survival (DFS) by adjuvant targeted therapy in non-small-cell lung cancer patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations, the relationship between the treatment duration and the survival benefits in patients remains unknown. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this multicenter, randomized, open-label, phase II trial, eligible patients aged 18-75 years with EGFR-mutant, stage II-IIIA lung adenocarcinoma and who had not received adjuvant chemotherapy after complete tumor resection were enrolled from eight centers in China. Patients were randomly assigned (1 : 1) to receive either 1-year or 2-year icotinib (125 mg thrice daily). The primary endpoint was DFS assessed by investigator. The secondary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and safety. This study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01929200). RESULTS Between September 2013 and October 2018, 109 patients were enrolled (1-year group, n = 55; 2-year group, n = 54). Median DFS was 48.9 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 33.1-70.1 months] in the 2-year group and 32.9 months (95% CI 26.6-44.8 months) in the 1-year group [hazard ratio (HR) 0.51; 95% CI 0.28-0.94; P = 0.0290]. Median OS for patients was 75.8 months [95% CI 64.4 months-not evaluable (NE)] in the 2-year group and NE (95% CI 66.3 months-NE) in the 1-year group (HR 0.34; 95% CI 0.13-0.95; P = 0.0317). Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were observed in 41 of 55 (75%) patients in the 1-year group and in 36 of 54 (67%) patients in the 2-year group. Grade 3-4 TRAEs occurred in 4 of 55 (7%) patients in the 1-year group and in 3 of 54 (6%) patients in the 2-year group. No treatment-related deaths or interstitial lung disease was reported. CONCLUSIONS Two-year adjuvant icotinib was shown to significantly improve DFS and provide an OS benefit in EGFR-mutant, stage II-IIIA lung adenocarcinoma patients compared with 1-year treatment in this exploratory phase II study.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the epidemiology, clinical characteristics, on-site dust monitoring and individual protection of the patients with artificial stone-related silicosis. Methods: In March 2022, the literature on artificial stone-related silicosis published from January 1965 to February 2022 was searched in China Journal Full-text Database, Wanfang Database, VIP Database, EMbase and PubMed. Chinese and English search terms include "silica dust""silica dust""silicosis""artificial stone""pneumoconiosis", etc. References were included according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, and data were extracted. The epidemiological characteristics, natural course of disease, workplace dust concentration and individual protection level of patients with artificial stone-related silicosis were analyzed by systematic review. Results: A total of 30 literatures were included, including 7 cohort studies, 14 cross-sectional studies, 3 case-control studies and 6 case reports. A total of 1358 patients with artificial stone-related silicosis were diagnosed from 1997 to 2020, with an average age of 41.5 years old and an average dust exposure time of 11.3 years. Among them, 36.2% (282/778) had progressive mass fibrosis or accelerated progressive silicosis at first diagnosis. Chest imaging showed diffuse small nodule shadow, pulmonary fibrosis, and silico-alveolar proteinosis. Pulmonary function showed restricted or mixed ventilation disorder with or without decreased diffusion volume. The disease progressed rapidly, with progressive mass fibrosis, respiratory failure, and even death. Patients engaged in artificial quartz stone processing, with high concentration of silica including ultra-fine particles, most of which were dry operation, lack of on-site ventilation measures and no effective personal protection. Conclusion: The artificial stone processing workers suffer from artificial stone-related silicosis due to dry cutting, lack of on-site dust removal facilities and personal protective measures, and the disease progresses rapidly, leading to poor prognosis.

Abstract
Objective: Compare and analyze the results of the domestic Lanyi AH600 glycated hemoglobin analyzer and other different detection systems to understand the comparability of the detection results of different detectors, and establish the best cut point of Lanyi AH600 determination of haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in the diagnosis of diabetes. Methods: Multi center cohort study was adopted. The clinical laboratory departments of 18 medical institutions independently collected test samples from their respective hospitals from March to April 2022, and independently completed comparative analysis of the evaluated instrument (Lanyi AH600) and the reference instrument HbA1c. The reference instruments include four different brands of glycosylated hemoglobin meters, including Arkray, Bio-Rad, DOSOH, and Huizhong. Scatter plot was used to calculate the correlation between the results of different detection systems, and the regression equation was calculated. The consistency analysis between the results of different detection systems was evaluated by Bland Altman method. Consistency judgment principles: (1) When the 95% limits of agreement (95% LoA) of the measurement difference was within 0.4% HbA1c and the measurement score was≥80 points, the comparison consistency was good; (2) When the measurement difference of 95% LoA exceeded 0.4% HbA1c, and the measurement score was≥80 points, the comparison consistency was relatively good; (3) The measurement score was less than 80 points, the comparison consistency was poor. The difference between the results of different detection systems was tested by paired sample T test or Wilcoxon paired sign rank sum test; The best cut-off point of diabetes was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). Results: The correlation coefficient R2 of results between Lanyi AH600 and the reference instrument in 16 hospitals is≥0.99; The Bland Altman consistency analysis showed that the difference of 95% LoA in Nanjing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital in Jiangsu Province (reference instrument: Arkray HA8180) was -0.486%-0.325%, and the measurement score was 94.6 points (473/500); The difference of 95% LoA in the Tibetan Traditional Medical Hospital of TAR (reference instrument: Bio-Rad Variant II) was -0.727%-0.612%, and the measurement score was 89.8 points; The difference of 95% LoA in the People's Hospital of Chongqing Liang Jiang New Area (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT) was -0.231%-0.461%, and the measurement score was 96.6 points; The difference of 95% LoA in the Taihe Hospital of traditional Chinese Medicine in Anhui Province (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT) was -0.469%-0.479%, and the measurement score was 91.9 points. The other 14 hospitals, Lanyi AH600, were compared with 4 reference instrument brands, the difference of 95% LoA was less than 0.4% HbA1c, and the scores were all greater than 95 points. The results of paired sample T test or Wilcoxon paired sign rank sum test showed that there was no statistically significant difference between Lanyi AH600 and the reference instrument Arkray HA8180 (Z=1.665,P=0.096), with no statistical difference. The mean difference between the measured values of the two instruments was 0.004%. The comparison data of Lanyi AH600 and the reference instrument of all other institutions had significant differences (all P<0.001), however, it was necessary to consider whether it was within the clinical acceptable range in combination with the results of the Bland-Altman consistency analysis. The ROC curve of HbA1c detected by Lanyi AH600 in 985 patients with diabetes and 3 423 patients with non-diabetes was analyzed, the area under curve (AUC) was 0.877, the standard error was 0.007, and the 95% confidence interval 95%CI was (0.864, 0.891), which was statistically significant (P<0.001). The maximum value of Youden index was 0.634, and the corresponding HbA1c cut point was 6.235%. The sensitivity and specificity of diabetes diagnosis were 76.2% and 87.2%, respectively. Conclusion: Among the hospitals and instruments currently included in this study, among these four hospitals included Nanjing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital in Jiangsu Province (reference instrument: Arkray HA8180), Tibetan Traditional Medical Hospital of TAR (reference instrument: Bio-Rad Variant Ⅱ), the People's Hospital of Chongqing Liang Jiang New Area (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT), and the Taihe Hospital of traditional Chinese Medicine in Anhui Province (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT), the comparison between Lanyi AH600 and the reference instruments showed relatively good consistency, while the other 14 hospitals involved four different brands of reference instruments: Arkray, Bio-Rad, DOSOH, and Huizhong, Lanyi AH600 had good consistency with its comparison. The best cut point of the domestic Lanyi AH600 for detecting HbA1c in the diagnosis of diabetes is 6.235%.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the detection and diagnostic efficacy of chest radiographs for ≤30 mm pulmonary nodules and the factors affecting them, and to compare the level of consistency among readers. Methods: A total of 43 patients with asymptomatic pulmonary nodules who consulted in Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from 2012 to 2014 and had chest CT and X-ray chest radiographs during the same period were retrospectively selected, and one nodule ≤30 mm was visible on chest CT images in the whole group (total 43 nodules in the whole group). One senior radiologist with more than 20 years of experience in imaging diagnosis reviewed CT images and recording the size, morphology, location, and density of nodules was selected retrospectively. Six radiologists with different levels of experience (2 residents, 2 attending physicians and 2 associate chief physicians independently reviewed the chest images and recorded the time of review, nodule detection, and diagnostic opinion. The CT imaging characteristics of detected and undetected nodules on X images were compared, and the factors affecting the detection of nodules on X-ray images were analyzed. Detection sensitivity and diagnosis accuracy rate of 6 radiologists were calculated, and the level of consistency among them was compared to analyze the influence of radiologists' seniority and reading time on the diagnosis results. Results: The number of nodules detected by all 6 radiologists was 17, with a sensitivity of detection of 39.5%(17/43). The number of nodules detected by ≥5, ≥4, ≥3, ≥2, and ≥1 physicians was 20, 21, 23, 25, and 28 nodules, respectively, with detection sensitivities of 46.5%, 48.8%, 53.5%, 58.1%, and 65.1%, respectively. Reasons for false-negative result of detection on X-ray images included the size, location, density, and morphology of the nodule. The sensitivity of detecting ≤30 mm, ≤20 mm, ≤15 mm, and ≤10 mm nodules was 46.5%-58.1%, 45.9%-54.1%, 36.0%-44.0%, and 36.4% for the 6 radiologists, respectively; the diagnosis accuracy rate was 19.0%-85.0%, 16.7%-6.5%, 18.2%-80.0%, and 0%-75.0%, respectively. The consistency of nodule detection among 6 doctors was good (Kappa value: 0.629-0.907) and the consistency of diagnostic results among them was moderate or poor (Kappa value: 0.350-0.653). The higher the radiologist's seniority, the shorter the time required to read the images. The reading time and the seniority of the radiologists had no significant influence on the detection and diagnosis results (P>0.05). Conclusions: The ability of radiographs to detect lung nodules ≤30 mm is limited, and the ability to determine the nature of the nodules is not sufficient, and the increase in reading time and seniority of the radiologists will not improve the diagnostic accuracy. X-ray film exam alone is not suitable for lung cancer diagnosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Prolactinomas are one of the most common pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs), accounting for approximately 50% of all pituitary tumors. Dopamine agonists are the main treatment for prolactinoma, but a small number of patients are still resistant to pharmacotherapy. Recent discoveries have revealed that ferroptosis is involved in regulating tumor drug resistance. However, the role of ferroptosis in prolactinoma has not been reported. In this study, we aimed to explore the mechanism of a circRNA in ferroptosis in prolactinoma. METHODS The expression of circOMA1 in prolactinoma tissues was examined by quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR). The biological function of circOMA1 was evaluated in vitro and in vivo. To explore the role of ferroptosis in prolactinoma, we used qRT-PCR and western blotting. Glutamate-cysteine ligase, modifier subunit (GCLM) was predicted to be a direct target gene of miR-145-5p by bioinformatics analysis, which was confirmed by luciferase reporter assays. RESULTS circOMA1 was overexpressed in drug-resistant prolactinoma tissues compared with sensitive prolactinoma samples. We further found that circOMA1 promoted MMQ cells growth in vivo and in vitro. In addition, GCLM was directly targeted by miR-145-5p and indirectly regulated by circOMA1. Importantly, circOMA1 induced ferroptosis resistance through the increased expression of Nrf2, GPX4, and xCT, and circOMA1 attenuated CAB-induced ferroptosis in MMQ cells in vivo and in vitro. CONCLUSION The present study demonstrates that circOMA1 attenuates CAB efficacy through ferroptosis resistance and may be a new therapeutic target for the individualized treatment of DA-resistant prolactinoma patients.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the clinical and chest computed tomography (CT) features and the outcome of immune checkpoint inhibitor-related pneumonitis (CIP). Methods: Clinical and chest CT data of 38 CIP patients with malignant tumors from the Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences between August 2017 and April 2021 were retrospectively reviewed, and the outcomes of pneumonitis were followed up. Results: The median time from the administration of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) to the onset of CIP was 72.5 days in 38 patients with CIP, and 22 patients developed CIP within 3 months after the administration of ICIs. The median occurrence time of CIP in 24 lung cancer patients was 54.5 days, earlier than 119.0 days of non-lung cancer patients (P=0.138), with no significant statistical difference. 34 patients (89.5%) were accompanied by symptoms when CIP occurred. The common clinical symptoms were cough (29 cases) and dyspnea (27 cases). The distribution of CIP on chest CT was asymmetric in 31 cases and symmetrical in 7 cases. Among the 24 lung cancer patients, inflammation was mainly distributed ipsilateral to the primary lung cancer site in 16 cases and diffusely distributed throughout the lung in 8 cases. Ground glass opacities (37 cases) and consolidation (30 cases) were the common imaging manifestations, and organizing pneumonia (OP) pattern (15 cases) was the most common pattern. In 30 CIP patients who were followed up for longer than one month, 17 cases had complete absorption (complete absorption group), and 13 cases had partial absorption or kept stable (incomplete absorption group). The median occurrence time of CIP in the complete absorption group was 55 days, shorter than 128 days of the incomplete absorption group (P=0.022). Compared with the incomplete absorption group, there were less consolidation(P=0.010) and CIP were all classified as hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) pattern (P=0.004) in the complete absorption group. Conclusions: CIP often occurs within 3 months after ICIs treatment, and the clinical and CT findings are lack of specificity. Radiologic features may have a profound value in predicting the outcome of CIP.

Abstract
Previous studies have revealed that there existed epidemic associations between Alzheimer's disease (AD) and many types of tumors, however, the inner biological mechanism connecting these diseases was not clear currently. In this study, we explored the transcriptome associations between AD and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) that both originate in the brain, using microglia as a bridge, from gene and network levels. Firstly, we extracted human scRNA sequencing datasets from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, and identified differentially expressed genes within microglia after cell annotation. It was observed that there were 11 common genes shared by AD and GBM dys-regulated genes. Next, we utilized DIAMOnD and Flow Centrality algorithms to identify microglia modules and mediating pathways connecting these two diseases based on global network topology. Among these candidate pathways, the mediating genes FURIN and BACE1 (from SPIKN5 to CSNK1A1) were not only related to the formation of amyloid beta plaques that accumulate in the brain of AD patients, but also involved in cancer biology. Furthermore, the biological explorations of mediating pathways connecting AD and GBM modules reveal inflammatory response, lipid metabolism disorder, and cell proliferation terms. Finally, novel signatures for early AD detection as well as risk models for glioma prognosis were identified based on mediating genes involved in these pathways. In conclusion, this study provided a novel network-based strategy for exploring microglia mediation between AD and GBM and identified candidate signatures for disease detection and prognosis.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of coronary artery calcification (CAC) on lung cancer screening with low-dose computed tomography (LDCT). Methods: A total of 4 989 asymptomatic subjects (2 542 males and 2 447 females) who underwent LDCT lung cancer screening were recruited at Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from 2014 to 2017. The visual scoring method was used to assess coronary artery calcification score. χ(2) test or independent t-test was used to compare the difference of CAC positive rate among different groups. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze risk factors associated with CAC in the study. Results: Of the 4 989 asymptomatic subjects, CAC occurred in 1 018 cases. The positive rate was 20.4%, of which mild, moderate and severe calcification accounted for 86.3%, 11.4% and 2.3%, respectively. Gender, age, BMI, education level, occupation, smoking history, diabetes, hypertension and hyperlipidemia had statistically significant differences in CAC positive rates among groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that gender, age, diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and smoking history were risk factors for CAC. Age, diabetes, hypertension and smoking history were statistically significant risk factors between the mild and moderate CAC group. A total of 1 730 coronary arteries in 1 018 CAC positive cases had calcification, CAC positive rate of left anterior descending was the highest(51.3%); 568 cases (55.8%) were single vessel calcification, 450 cases (44.2%) were multiple vessel calcification. Conclusions: LDCT can be used for the 'one-stop' early detection of lung cancer and coronary atherosclerosis. Gender, age, diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and smoking are related risk factors for coronary atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the influence of CT reconstruction algorithm, radiation dose, and contrast agent on the stability of radiomic features of pure ground-glass density pulmonary nodules. Methods: A total of 50 pure ground-glass density pulmonary nodules in 35 patients were prospectively selected from Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College in 2018. After reconstructing the original image of the same patient's pulmonary nodules, six sequences of different parameters were obtained. ITK-SNAP software was used to segment different sequences of pure ground-glass density pulmonary nodules. All scanning data were extracted by A. K. software. The radiomic features with good retest reliability were selected by the intraclass correlation coefficient. The statistical software of R language was used to analyze the characteristic parameters. All the radiomic feature values of different sequences were paired and compared. The number of radiomic features changed by acquisition and reconstruction parameters was counted. The influence of different parameters on the reproducibility of pure ground-glass density pulmonary nodules was compared. Results: A total of 391 radiomic features were extracted from 50 cases of pure ground-glass density pulmonary nodules. 320 features with an intraclass correlation coefficient greater than 0.75 were selected for further analysis. By changing the three parameters of CT reconstruction algorithm, radiation dose, and contrast agent simultaneously, the changed radiomic features of the pure ground-glass density pulmonary nodules reach 60.9% (195/320), including 6.7% (1/15) morphological feature, 100.0% (40/40) histogram features, and 58.1% (154/265) texture features. When only one parameter was changed (keeping the other two parameters unchanged), changing the CT reconstruction algorithm, radiation dose, and contrast agent respectively, the changed radiomic features of pure ground-glass density pulmonary nodules were 10.6% (34/320), 30.9% (99/320) and 50.6% (162/320), the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). When the radiation dose and contrast agent were changed, the radiomic features obtained by the FBP reconstruction algorithm had smaller changes than the features obtained by the 50% ASiR-V algorithm (P=0.001). Conclusions: CT reconstruction algorithm, radiation dose, and contrast agent will affect the radiomic features of pure ground-glass density pulmonary nodules. The contrast agent has the most significant influence on the radiomic features, followed by radiation dose and CT reconstruction algorithm minimum. Compared with morphological features, histogram features and texture features are more likely to be affected by CT reconstruction algorithms, radiation doses, and contrast agents. Compared with the 50% ASiR-V algorithm, the radiomic features obtained by the FBP reconstruction algorithm are less affected by the radiation dose and contrast agent. The influence of these parameters should be fully considered in the radiomic analysis.

Abstract
Understanding how plants adjust their requirements for different N forms can help elucidate plant coexistence strategies in N-limited desert ecosystems. To understand the mechanisms involved, we investigated whether two desert herbs can directly absorb dissolved organic nitrogen (N) and tested whether the patterns changed over different growth stages. Two dominant herbaceous species, Astragalus arpilobus and Arnebia decumbens, from the southern edge of the Gurbantunggut desert, China, were selected. Short-term (24 h) 15 N-labelled tracer (15 N-NO3 , 15 N-NH4 , 2-13 C-15 N-Glycine) treatments were conducted at two soil depths (0-5 cm and 5-15 cm) in the season of rapid growth (June) and in the peak biomass season (July). Enrichment in 13 C and 15 N was assessed in the two species receiving glycine. The ratio 13 C:15 N was 0.21-1.39 at the 24-h harvest, suggesting that approximately 10.5-69.5% of glycine had been absorbed. The amount of absorbed 15 N was significantly affected by species, month, soil depth and N form. The two species absorbed most 15 N from the 0-5 cm soil layer, and the absorption rate in July was higher than that in June. The absorption of 15 N-NO3 and 15 N-NH4 was significantly higher than that of 2-13 C-15 N-Glycine. The results indicate that these herbs could use amino acids in the N-deficient desert ecosystem. The two co-existing species used different forms of inorganic N for their requirements and maintained a specific preference throughout various growth stages.

Abstract
A new visible imaging system characterizing a flexible optical design and delivering high resolution frames is established on the HL-2A tokamak. It features a modular configuration, consisting of a front-end imaging lens, a set of bilateral telecentric relay lenses, and a camera. To avoid the effects of plasma radiation (x and gamma-rays) and magnetic field variation on the camera, it should be away from the coils. Therefore, the length of the relay lenses determines the total size of the imaging system. The main feature of this imaging system is to realize the variation of field of view (FOV) by interchanging the front-end prime lenses or by using a zoom lens directly rather than designing the optical system afresh, which lowers the cost drastically. The primary purpose of varying FOV is to enrich the versatility of this system, i.e., focusing on a narrow FOV such as gas puff imaging or a wide FOV such as the plasma cross sections. During the HL-2A experiments, this visible imaging system is used to provide high quality pictures of the plasma-wall interaction, divertor detachment, pellet injections, and so on. The frames confirmed that a strong radiation close to the X point is correlated with the completely detached inner target.

Abstract
The retrospective study included 122 cases of multiple glioma and 183 cases of single glioma. Of these, there were 74 males and 48 female with multiple gliomas, aged 18 to 83 (53±13) years, and 104 males and 79 females with single gliomas, aged 10 to 84 (51±14) years. A standard spatial-based lesion analysis method was used for constructing a spatially distributed frequency heatmap of multiple gliomas, to observe the characteristics of their white matter invasion sites. The spatial distribution was more frequent in the subventricular zone, corpus callosum and cingulate gyrus in the multiple glioma group compared to the single glioma group (P<0.001).The white matter areas of multiple gliomas were more extensively involved, with more frequent involvement of the conjoined fibers (corpus callosum, P<0.05) and contact fibers (cingulate, dome, 0.05<P<0.10) areas.The spatial distribution of the brain and the white matter invasion of multiple gliomas have certain site specificity.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical value of pretreatment 18F-fluorodeoxy glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET-CT) in extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma. Methods: Eighty-one patients with pathologically confirmed extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma and pretreatment with PET-CT scan in Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from August 2006 to December 2017 were enrolled in the study. The clinical, follow-up and imaging data were analyzed retrospectively. The relationship between maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) and prognosis were evaluated by Mann-Whitney U test and Spearman rank correlation analysis. Results: Among the 81 patients, 98.8% (80/81) were upper aerodigestive tract (UAT) involved. Lesions at extra-UAT sites were detected in 7 cases, involving parotid gland (n=1), breast (n=1), spleen (n=1), pancreas (n=1), skin and subcutaneous soft tissue (n=1), muscle (n=1), lung (n=2) and bone (n=3). Lymph node involvement were demonstrated in 33 cases. All of the lesions had increased uptake of PET, the median SUVmax was 8.6. PET-CT changed staging in 15 cases, and 12 cases were adjusted treatment methods. 21 cases were changed radiotherapy target because of PET-CT. The 1-, 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 88.7% and 80.3% while 1-, 2-year overall survival (OS) rates were 97.2% and 94.4% respectively. The median SUVmax of patients with local lymph nodes involvement was significantly higher than those without local lymph nodes involvement (P=0.007). The SUVmax was positively associated with Ann Arbor stage (r=0.366, P=0.001), lactate dehydrogenase (r=0.308, P=0.005) and Ki-67 level (r=0.270, P=0.017). The SUVmax was inversely associated with lymphocyte count (r=-0.324, P=0.003) and hemoglobin content (r=-0.225, P=0.043). Conclusions: Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma predominantly occurs in extra-nodal organs, mainly in the upper respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts, with marked FDG-addiction. Compared with conventional imaging, 18F-FDG PET-CT is sensitive and comprehensive in detecting extra-nodal NK/T-cell lymphoma involvement, assisting in accurate clinical staging and treatment planning. Pretreatment SUVmax is potential for prognosis evaluation since it is correlated with prognostic factors.

Abstract
Objectives: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of the stratification medical treatment based on the motor complications risk estimation in improving the quality of life, motor symptoms and delaying the motor complications in Parkinson's patients. Methods: Outpatients and inpatients from Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, were recruited between November 2019 and June 2020. The participants were all clinically diagnosed with PD and treated with anti-PD medications, but had no history of motor complications, with the 8-item Parkinson's disease questionnaire summary index (PDQ-8 SI)>18.59. At baseline, the demographic characteristics, PD medical history, levodopa dosage (LD) and levodopa equivalent dosage (LED) were collected, and the evaluation of PDQ-8, Unified Parkinson's disease rating scale (UPDRS)-Ⅱ and Ⅲ, Hoehn and Yahr (H&Y) grade, Hamilton anxiety scale-14 (HAMA-14), Hamilton depression scale-24 (HAMD-24), mini-mental state examination (MMSE), Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI), and Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS) tools was accomplished in all participants. Meanwhile, a Parkinson's disease risk estimation scale for motor complications was used to assess patients' risk of motor complications, and thus the medication was stratified in PD patients accordingly. During the 6-month and 12-month follow-ups, the evaluation of the above-mentioned parameters was repeated in all participants. At the 3-month and 9-month follow-ups, the information of anti-PD medications, the occurrence of motor complications (motor fluctuations and dyskinesia) and adverse drug reactions were recorded, and PDQ-8 was also evaluated. Results: Two hundred and fifty-one patients completed the 1-year follow-up, with 135 males and 116 females. At baseline, the median age of the patients was 66 (60, 71) years and the median PDQ-8 SI was 31.2 (21.9, 40.6). Additionally, 15.9% (40/251) of the patients were at high risk of motor fluctuation, and 7.2% (18/251) were at high risk of dyskinesia. There were significant differences in the age of onset, disease duration, PD treatment duration, the scores of UPDRS-Ⅱ and Ⅲ, H&Y Grade, and PDQ-8 SI among PD patients of different risk groups (all P<0.05). In the 12th month, the median of PDQ-8 SI, Δ PDQ-8 SI and Δ UPDRS-Ⅲ was 12.5 (9.4, 18.8), -15.6 (-21.9, -9.4) and -9(-16, -4), respectively, which was statistically different from that of baseline (all P<0.05). The change of UPDRS-Ⅱ scores in the group with high risk of motor fluctuation was statistically different from that in the groups with low and moderate risk (P<0.05). The changes of PSQI score, LD and LED in the group with high risk of dyskinesia was statistically different from those in the groups with low and moderate risk (all P<0.05). During the follow-up, the incidence of motor fluctuation and dyskinesia was 9.56% (24/251) and 5.97% (15/251), respectively. Conclusion: The stratification medical treatment might have a positive intervention effect on promoting a better quality of life, improving motor symptoms and delaying motor complications in PD patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The study aimed to evaluate the brief F3ALLS assessment's validity in screening fall risk. DESIGN This is a cross sectional and longitudinal study. SETTING Participants were recruited from outpatient primary care clinics. PARTICIPANTS Older ambulatory adults ages 65-90 volunteered for this study. MEASUREMENTS Falls risk was measured with TGBA and F3ALLS questionnaires. A 6-month follow-up period assessed for falls using falls diaries and chart review. RESULTS Participants (n=97) were older adults ages 73.91±6.4, 68% (n=66) female. 31% of participants reported at least one fall at 6-months. F3ALLS scores were higher in participants who reported 1 or more falls at 6-months follow-up (3.23±1.5). Higher F3ALLS scores were associated with 6-month fall risk (OR=1.463, 95% CI=1.098-1.949). A score > 3 stratified patients as at risk of falling (AUC=0.77, P<.001; Sensitivity=0.65, Specificity=0.71). CONCLUSION The F3ALLS questionnaire adequately classifies person at risk versus not at risk for falls, and higher (worse) F3ALLS scores are associated with falls over 6 months.

Objective: To investigate the prognostic value of (18)F-fluorodeoxygen-D-glucose-positron emission tomography /computerized tomography ((18)F-FDG-PET-CT) in Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) at the end of first-line treatment (PET-end), by comparing the ratio of maximum standardized uptake value (SUV(max)) of lesion and liver SUV (rLL), SUV(max) reduction between baseline PET (PET-0) and PET-end (ΔSUV(max)), and Deauville 5-point scale (5-PS). Methods: Patients with HL newly treated in our hospital from August 2006 to December 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients enrolled in the study underwent post-treatment FDG PET-CT. The rLL and ΔSUV(max) were calculated, and all the cases were scored using Deauville 5-PS. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) approach was applied to identify the optimal cut-point value, and survival curves according to different PET-CT assessment methods were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier analysis. The prognostic efficacy of different PET-CT assessment methods was compared, and DeLong test was used to verify it. Kaplan-Meier method and multivariate analysis using the Cox proportional hazards model were performed to analyze the potential independent risk factors. Results: There were 5 patients progressed within a 3-year follow-up. In the three PET-CT assessment methods, the predictive value of rLL and Deauville 5-PS were significant effective. ROC analysis for rLL as a progression predictor showed an optimal cut-point of 1.29. Deauville 5-PS=4 and rLL=1.29 showed the best prognostic accuracy. The sensitivity of rLL and Deauville 5-PS were both 80.0%, and the specificity of each was 98.0% and 93.7%, respectively. The positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of rLL were 66.7% and 98.7%, while the PPV and NPV of 5-PS were 44.4% and 98.7%. The 3-years progression-free survival (PFS) rates of rLL≥1.29 group and rLL<1.29 group were 33.3% and 98.7%, with significant difference (P<0.001). The 3-years PFS rates of post-treatment Deauville 5-PS<4 group and Deauville 5-PS≥4 group were 98.7% and 55.6%, with significant difference (P<0.001). The prognostic evaluation efficacy of rLL was positively correlated with that of Deauville 5-PS (r=0.75, P<0.05). Area under curves (AUC) of rLL and Deauville 5-PS were 0.93 (95%CI: 0.825-1.000) and 0.91 (95%CI: 0.757-1.000), respectively. DeLong test showed the significant difference between the two methods (P<0.05). The univariate analysis results showed that clinical baseline stage, post-treatment rLL and Deauville 5-PS were associated with the prognoses of HL patients (P<0.05). The multivariate analysis results showed that post-treatment rLL and Deauville 5-PS were independent prognostic factors of HL (P<0.05). Conclusions: The rLL and Deauville 5-PS are potential prognostic factors for HL response assessment. The new semi-quantitative method rLL has methodological advantages over visual analysis, and it is a good supplement for Deauville 5-PS. rLL can improve prognostic evaluation accuracy of PET-CT and is useful to early identify patients with HL at a high risk of relapsing after first-line treatment.

Abstract
Background Colonization has been reported to play an important role in carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) infection; however, the extent to which carriers develop clinical CRE infection and related risk factors in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) patients is unclear. Aim To investigate the frequency of CRE colonization and its contribution to infections in NICU patients. Methods CRE colonization screening and CRE infection surveillance were performed in the NICU in 2017 and 2018. Findings Among 1230 unique NICU patients who were screened for CRE colonization, 144 patients tested positive (11.7%, 144/1230), with 9.2% (110/1197) in the intestinal tract, which was higher than that in the upper respiratory tract (6.6%, 62/945) (P=0.026). Gestational age, low birth weight and prolonged hospitalization were risk factors for CRE colonization (all P<0.001). Diversilab homology monitoring found an overall 17.4% (25/144) risk of infection among patients colonized with CRE. For carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR-KP) and carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli (CR-ECO), the risks were 19.1% (21/110) and 13.8% (4/29), respectively. The independent risk factors for CR-KP clinical infection among CR-KP carriers were receiving mechanical ventilation (odds ratio (OR), 10.177; 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.667–38.830; P=0.013), a high level of neonatal nutritional risk assessment (OR, 0.251; 95% CI, 0.072–0.881; P=0.031) and a high neonatal acute physiology II (SNAP-II) score (OR, 0.256; 95% CI, 0.882–1.034; P=0.025). Conclusions The colonization of CRE may increase the incidence of corresponding CRE infection in NICU patients. Receiving mechanical ventilation, malnutrition and critical conditions with high SNAP-II scores were independent risk factors for subsequent CR-KP clinical infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3)-associated autoinflammatory disease (NLRP3-AID) is a rare, heterogeneous disease entity associated with mutations in NLRP3. Biologic therapy for NLRP3-AID yields diverse results. OBJECTIVES We aimed to evaluate the clinical features and outcomes of Chinese adult patients with NLRP3-AID who were treated with tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α inhibitors. METHODS Five patients with NLRP3-AID were diagnosed and treated with TNF-α inhibitors at Peking Union Medical College Hospital between 2017 and 2020 and were followed up for 6 to 12 months. All patients were systematically studied for treatment outcomes, including clinical manifestations and inflammatory markers. RESULTS All five adult NLRP3-AID patients were Chinese Han, and four patients were males. The mean age at disease onset was 4.2 ± 4.1 years, and the mean time of diagnosis delay was 19.8 ± 6 years. All patients received TNF-α inhibitors with or without methotrexate/prednisone. During follow-up, all patients achieved remarkable clinical remission of skin lesions and polyarthritis and showed improvements in acute-phase reactants, inflammatory cytokines, patient visual analogue scale, physician global assessment and 36-item Short Form (SF-36). CONCLUSIONS Early diagnosis and effective therapy for NLRP3-AID are essential for avoiding irreversible organ damage. TNF-α inhibitors might serve as a therapeutic alternative for patients with NLRP3-AID who have unsatisfactory responses or no access to interleukin-1 inhibitors.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the relationship between the anatomical location of intrapulmonary metastatic lymph nodes and relapse risk and survival in patients with N1 non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). Methods: A retrospective analysis of the clinical and pathological data of 138 patients with completely resected N1 NSCLC was conducted. There were 79 males and 59 females, aged from 26 to 81 years with an average of (59±10) years. All of them were treated in the Department of Thoracic Surgery Ⅱ of Peking University Cancer Hospital between January 2007 and December 2015. Patients were stratified based on the 8th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) N1 classification and the modified pathological N1 classification strategy, respectively. According to modified pathological N1 classification strategy, which was defined based on the anatomical location of intrapulmonary metastatic lymph nodes, N1 nodes were subcategorized into the hilar (stations 10-11, mN1b) (n=36) and peripheral (stations 12-14, mN1a) (n=102) zones. The Kaplan-Meier curves were plotted to compare the relapse risk and survival analysis, disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS) were compared between the two staging methods through univariate and multivariate analysis to evaluate the effectiveness of the two classifications in stratifying patients with distinct risks of disease relapse and survival. Results: According to the modified N1 classification, the differences in 5-year DFS and OS between the subgroups (mN1a vs mN1b) were statistically significant(59.5% vs 35.7%; 81.2% vs 56.0%; both P<0.05). However, following the 8th edition of the AJCC N1 classification, no significant differences were found in DFS and OS between the subgroups (both P>0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that the modified N1 classification was an independent prognostic factor to DFS (HR=1.814, 95%CI: 1.005-3.275) and OS (HR=3.919, 95%CI: 1.918-8.009) (all P<0.05). However, the 8th edition of the AJCC N1 classification was not an independent prognostic factor to DFS (HR=1.360, 95%CI:0.767-2.412) or OS (HR=1.620, 95%CI:0.839-3.131) (both P>0.05) as revealed by multivariate analysis. Conclusions: The relapse risk and survival could be assessed effectively using the modified pathological N1 classification, which was defined and subcategorized based on the anatomical location of intrapulmonary metastatic lymph nodes for N1 NSCLC patients. The modified pathological N1 classification is superior to the 8th edition of the AJCC classification.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the dose-response relationship between serum polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon adducts and serum complement C3 and C4 levels among children from a city in East China. Methods: In September 2016, two boarding schools in the air pollution exposure area and the control area (beyond the upwind of 30 km in the air pollution exposure area) in a city in East China were selected as the research site, and the eligible school-age children were recruited as the research objects. A total of 273 children were included, including 163 in the exposure group and 110 in the control group. The annual air pollutant data (PM2.5, PM10 and NO2) of the two regions during the study period were collected. The exposure level of tobacco was evaluated by cotinine in urine. The levels of serum complement C3 and C4 were determined by automatic biochemical analyzer. The serum anti-7, 8, -dihydrodiol-9, 10-epoxide benzo[a]pyrene (BPDE)-albumin adduct levels were detected by ELISA. Linear regression model was used to explore the dose-response relationship between BPDE-albumin adducts and serum complement C3 and C4. Results: The age of 273 subjects was (13.67±0.37) years old, including 165 boys (60.4%). The average annual exposure levels of PM2.5, PM10 and NO2 and the level of serum BPDE-albumin adducts in the exposure group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The results of linear regression model analysis showed that after adjusting age, sex, BMI z-score and urinary cotinine level, when the serum BPDE-albumin adduct level increased by 10%, the serum complement C4 level decreased by 1.2% (P=0.017). After adjusting age, BMI z-score and urinary cotinine level, for every 10% increase in serum BPDE-albumin adduct level in boys, the serum complement C4 level decreased by 1.68% (P=0.024). After adjusting age, sex and BMI z-score, the levels of serum complement C3 and C4 decreased by 1.31% and 3.57% respectively for every 10% increase in serum BPDE-albumin adducts among children in the urinary cotinine detection group (P<0.05). Conclusion: There is a significant dose-response relationship between serum BPDE-albumin adducts and the complement C4 among children.

Abstract
In China, the malignant tumor with the highest incidence and motality is lung cancer (LC). As screening and early detection and treatment are effective in reducing LC mortality, formulating a guideline in line with China's national conditions for the screening and early detection and treatment of LC will greatly promote the homogeneity and accuracy of LC screening, and result in an improvement of the effectiveness of LC screening. Commissioned and directed by the Disease Prevention and Control Bureau of the National Health Commission of the People's Republic of China, the guidline was initiated by the National Cancer Center of China and formulated with joint effort by experts from different disciplines. Following the principles and methods in WHO Handbook for Guideline Development, the guidline integrates the latest development in LC screening and early diagnosis and treatment worldwide while fully considering China's national conditions and practical experience in LC screening. It provides detailed evidence-based recommendations for different aspects of LC screening, such as the targeted population, the technologies and the procedures, to regulate the practices of LC screening and early diagnosis and treatment and enhance the effectiveness of the prevention and control of LC in China.

Abstract
Objective: To study the clinicopathologic features, immunophenotype, molecular genetics and differential diagnosis of biphenotypic sinonasal sarcoma (BSNS), and to evaluate the role of PAX3 and PAX8 immunohistochemical (IHC) antibodies in the diagnosis of BSNS. Methods: Nasal sinus spindle cell tumors surgically treated at the Jinling Hospital from 2000 to 2019 were collected, including three cases of BSNS, 10 cases of acinar rhabdomyosarcoma, eight cases of schwannoma, five cases of hemangiopericytoma, three cases of fibrosarcoma, and one case of triton tumor. The cases were evaluated by histology, IHC by EnVision for PAX3 and PAX 8 (including PAX8 murine monoclonal antibody, clone number OTI6H8, hereinafter referred to as PAX8-OTI6H8 antibody; PAX8 rabbit monoclonal antibody, clone number EP298, hereinafter referred to as PAX8-EP298 antibody) molecular genetic tests. Results: All three BSNS patients were elderly women with clinical manifestations of nasal congestion and bleeding. Imaging showed a soft tissue density shadow of the nasal cavity and sinuses with bone destruction. The boundaries of tumors which were covered with ciliated columnar epithelium were unclear, and mucosal invasion and squamous metaplasia could be seen. Tumor cells were spindle-shaped, arranged in a bundle-like, braided arrangement, with little cellular atypia and occasional atypical mitotic figures. The tumoral interstitial vessels were mostly thin-walled, some showing staghorn-like changes. There was focal striated muscle differentiation in two cases, and bone invasion was seen in two cases. IHC staining showed that all three cases of BSNS expressed PAX3 and PAX8-OTI6H8, but not PAX8-EP298. All eight cases of schwannoma, five cases of hemangiopericytoma, and one case of triton tumor did not express PAX3, PAX8-OTI6H8 or PAX8-EP298. Eight of the ten cases of alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma expressed PAX3 and PAX8-OTI6H8, but not PAX8-EP298. Three cases of fibrosarcoma showed weak PAX3 and PAX8-OTI6H8 expression, but there was no PAX8-EP298 expression. FISH detection showed that PAX3 break apart in the tumor cells from all three patients (four specimens). Conclusions: BSNS is a distinct sinonasal low grade malignancy with dual differentiation which could be readily confused with a variety of spindle cell tumors encountered in the sinonasal cavity. The molecular genetics of PAX3 gene break is the gold standard for diagnosis of this tumor. IHC marker monoclonal PAX3 is 100% expressed in BSNS, while the specificity is limited. PAX8-OTI6H8 is also expressed in BSNS due to the cross reaction with PAX3 antibody, while PAX8-EP298 is all negative for these tumors.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate mental workload among nurses from tertiary hospitals in Shandong Province, and analyze various factors related to mental workload. Methods: From May to July 2019, a cluster sampling method was used to select 8255 nurses from 20 third class a general hospitals in 16 cities of Shandong Province as the research objects, and 8159 valid questionnaires were collected. The general information and psychological load of nurses were investigated by general information questionnaire and task load index scale. The measurement data were expressed in percentage (%) ; the nurses' psychological load scores were in accordance with normal distribution, and the differences between groups were compared by t-test or ANOVA; the related influencing factors of nurses' psychological load were analyzed by multiple stepwise regression analysis. Results: The average scores of mental workload among nurses was 77.83 (SD=12.88) . Time demands and physical demands were the two highest rated dimensions of mental workload. the average scores were 90.77 (SD=12.47) and 79.92 (SD=15.23) . Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that Satisfaction with income, monthly average night shift and professional titles were the significant predictors of mental workload (R(2)=0.08) . Conclusion: Nurses with higher psychological load, lower income satisfaction, higher number of night shifts per month and lower title have higher psychological load.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
Guidelines recommend dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and ticagrelor following acute coronary syndrome (ACS) regardless of management strategy. Despite this, prescription practices lag and appropriate DAPT is not utilized.
Purpose
We aimed to trend differences in P2Y12 inhibitor prescriptions between ACS patients managed with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). As well, we wanted to analyze the impact practice-changing trial publications, national guideline updates, and publicly funded drug coverage plans may have on prescription patterns.
Methods
From national databases, we obtained data for ACS patients in the province of Ontario, Canada between 2008 and 2018. Using an interrupted-time series with data aggregated monthly, we evaluated types of P2Y12 inhibitor prescribed at hospital discharge and changes to antiplatelet prescription patterns following publication of Ticagrelor versus Clopidogrel in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome (PLATO), Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) antiplatelet therapy guidelines, and ticagrelor coverage by a publicly funded medication plan.
Results
We included 114,142 ACS patients; 49% underwent PCI and 8% required CABG. Between October 2008 and March 2018, the proportion of patients discharged on P2Y12 inhibitors increased from 73.4% to 87% (p<0.0001) for PCI patients and 11.4% to 31.4% (p<0.0001) for CABG patients. PLATO publication was associated with a 1.3% (p=0.002) monthly decline in clopidogrel prescriptions amongst PCI patients. The 2010 CCS antiplatelet therapy guidelines were associated with a 0.7% (p<0.0001) monthly decline in clopidogrel prescriptions amongst PCI patients. The approval of ticagrelor by publicly funded medication plan was associated with an increase in ticagrelor prescriptions within the first month (24.5%; p<0.0001) and a continued monthly increase (0.4%; p<0.0001) in PCI patients. The approval was also associated with an increase in monthly ticagrelor prescriptions (0.2%; p<0.0001) amongst CABG patients. The 2012 CCS antiplatelet therapy guidelines were associated with a decline in clopidogrel prescriptions within the first month (6.1%; p=0.003) and a monthly increase in ticagrelor prescriptions (0.3%; p=0.05) amongst PCI patients.
Conclusion
Drug coverage by a publicly funded medication plan and guideline updates had significant impact on P2Y12 inhibitor prescription practices. Despite improvements, P2Y12 inhibitor prescriptions for CABG patients are far behind PCI patients. Further research is necessary to address barriers to appropriate antiplatelet therapy in the ACS population.
