Abstract
Objective: To analyze the relationships between preoperative ocular parameters and postoperative anomalous vaults, and research their predictive diagnostic value. Methods: In this retrospective case series study, 664 eyes from 332 patients underwent posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens (pIOL) implantation at Shanghai Bright Eye Hospital and Wuxi Huaxia Eye Hospital from November 2020 to November 2021. Preoperative ocular parameters, including spherical equivalent, intraocular pressure, horizontal/vertical ciliary sulcus diameters (HCS/VCS), white-to-white diameters (WTW), corneal steep/flat curvature, central corneal thickness, anterior chamber depth (ACD), lens thickness (LT), and axial length were collected. The pIOL vaults were measured 3 months after surgery. Patients were categorized into low vault group, optimal vault group, and high vault group based on whether the vault fell within the ideal range (250 to 750 μm). Using the optimal vault group as a benchmark, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn for each ocular parameter of the low and high vault groups to analyze diagnostic efficiency and cut-off values for abnormal vaults after pIOL operation. Each ocular parameter was used as an independent variable to establish a multivariate logistic regression model for two different vault anomalies. ROC curves were drawn and analyzed again based on the regression results. Results: Statistically significant differences were observed in WTW, HCS-WTW, ACD, and LT among the three groups. Comparisons between each pair of groups indicated that WTW in the high vault group significantly differed from the other two groups (P<0.05), HCS-WTW in the low vault group significantly differed from the other groups (P<0.05), and ACD and LT explained statistical differences among the three groups (P<0.05), while other parameters showed no differences. ROC curves illustrated that independent ocular parameters such as LT, HCS-WTW, and ACD had clinical predictive diagnostic significance for low vault abnormalities. The area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity for these parameters were 0.829(0.952, 0.561), 0.745(0.857, 0.644), and 0.730(0.619, 0.853), respectively. The diagnostic cut-off values were 3.745, 0.020, and 2.975 mm, respectively. The clinical predictive significance of independent ocular parameters in diagnosing the high vault group was poor (AUC<0.7). The predictive Logistic model equation for low vault was Logistic(V1)=-10.067+5.328·HCS-3.620·WTW+6.263·LT, and the predictive model for high vault was Logistic(V2)=6.232+1.323·WTW-3.358·LT. The new parameters in the predictive equation significantly improved the diagnostic efficiency of low and high vault abnormalities, reaching 0.884(0.810, 0.824) and 0.736(0.810, 0.554), respectively. Conclusions: Preoperative predictive diagnostic parameters for postoperative low vault group included LT, HCS-WTW, and ACD, while the high vault group had no independent predictive diagnostic parameters. Logistic regression improved the predictive diagnostic efficiency of abnormal vaults.

Abstract
High density lipoprotein (HDL) is an important biochemical index of clinical cardiovascular disease. Many new studies have demonstrated abnormalities of plasma HDL subfractions in patients with this disease,and their clinical significance is greater than the overall abnormalities of HDL. Therefore,the HDL subfraction as an important factor in cardiovascular disease has attracted extensive research and attention. This article summarizes current research on HDL subfractions,their measurements and their relationships with atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical value and efficacy of the nomogram model in evaluating the prognosis of cholangiocarcinoma after interventional therapy. Methods: The clinical data of 259 patients with cholangiocarcinoma who received interventional therapy at the First Affiliated Hospital of zhengzhou University from January 2014 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, including 148 males and 111 females, aged from 26 to 91 (65±12) years. They were randomly divided into a training group (181 cases) and a validation group (78 cases) in a ratio of 7∶3. Cox regression analysis was performed in the training group, independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients were screened, and a nomogram for 6-month, 1-year, and 2-year survival was constructed. The performance of the nomogram was analyzed by calculating the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) value, calibration curve, and decision curve, and the predictive efficacy of the model was evaluated in the validation group. Results: There was no significant difference in baseline data between the training group and the validation group, which was comparable. Regression analysis showed that T stage (T2: HR=0.147,95%CI: 0.077-0.281;T3: HR=0.207,95%CI: 0.122-0.351;T4: HR=0.864,95%CI: 0.537-1.393), tumor diameter (17-33 mm: HR=0.201,95%CI: 0.119-0.341;≥33 mm: HR=0.795,95%CI: 0.521-1.211) and differentiation degree(middle differentiation: HR=3.318,95%CI: 2.082-5.289;highly differentiation: HR=1.842,95%CI: 1.184-2.867) were risk factors affecting the prognosis of interventional therapy for cholangiocarcinoma. The AUC values of the survival curve prediction models were generally consistent between the training and validation groups, and the AUC values of the training group at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years were 0.925 (95%CI: 0.888-0.963), 0.921 (95%CI: 0.877-0.964) and 0.974 (95%CI: 0.957-0.993), respectively. In the validation group, the 6-month, 1-year, and 2-year AUC values were 0.951 (95%CI: 0.911-0.991), 0.917 (95%CI: 0.857-0.977) and 0.848 (95%CI: 0.737-0.959), respectively, and the AUC values were all greater than 0.8, suggesting that the nomogram had better discrimination ability. The calibration curves of the prediction models of the two groups were basically consistent, and the shape of the calibration curves at 6 months and 1 year fitted the ideal curve, while the fitting degree of the calibration curves at 2 years was relatively poor. The decision curve showed the high clinical utility of this nomogram in predicting the 6-month, 1-year survival of patients with cholangiocarcinoma. Conclusions: T stage, tumor diameter, and differentiation are independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with interventional cholangiocarcinoma, and the nomogram model proposed in this study has good distinguishing ability and exact clinical value for prognosis evaluation.

Abstract
Traditional Chinese medicine has emerged as promising targets for ischemic stroke (IS) therapy, yet the mechanism remains elusive. The current study was performed with an aim to investigate the action and mechanism of Tongqiao Huoxue decoction (TQHXD) affecting the neurological impairment secondary to IS based on network pharmacology. Based on network pharmacology and bioinformatics analysis, target genes and pathways involved in the treatment of TQHXD against IS were predicted. Serum containing TQHXD was prepared through blood collection from C57BL/6 mice after intragastric administration of TQHXD. The main results exhibited that Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (PTGS2) exhibited an abundance in IS and enrichment in the NF-kappa B signaling pathway, holding the potential as targets related to TQHXD treatment for IS. TQHXD was found to rescue cell viability, inhibit apoptosis, and alleviate inflammation under oxygen and glucose deprivation and reoxygenation (OGD/R) exposure. Furthermore, our in vivo experiment validated the protective function of TQHXD in ischemic brain damage stimulated by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). This protective action of TQHXD could be attenuated by overexpressing nuclear factor (NF)-kappa B, which was dependent on PTGS2. Collectively, TQHXD was demonstrated to ameliorate IS-induced neurological impairment by blocking the NF-kappa B signaling pathway and down-regulating PTGS2.

Abstract
Because of the half-filled t_{2g}-electron configuration, the BO_{6} octahedral distortion in a 3d^{3} perovskite system is usually very limited. In this Letter, a perovskitelike oxide Hg_{0.75}Pb_{0.25}MnO_{3} (HPMO) with a 3d^{3} Mn^{4+} state was synthesized by using high pressure and high temperature methods. This compound exhibits an unusually large octahedral distortion enhanced by approximately 2 orders of magnitude compared with that observed in other 3d^{3} perovskite systems like RCr^{3+}O_{3} (R=rare earth). Essentially different from centrosymmetric HgMnO_{3} and PbMnO_{3}, the A-site doped HPMO presents a polar crystal structure with the space group Ama2 and a substantial spontaneous electric polarization (26.5 μC/cm^{2} in theory) arising from the off-center displacements of A- and B-site ions. More interestingly, a prominent net photocurrent and switchable photovoltaic effect with a sustainable photoresponse were observed in the current polycrystalline HPMO. This Letter provides an exceptional d^{3} material system which shows unusually large octahedral distortion and displacement-type ferroelectricity violating the "d^{0}-ness" rule.

Abstract
Pyrocumulonimbus (pyroCb) are wildfire-generated convective clouds that can inject smoke directly into the stratosphere. PyroCb have been tracked for years, yet their apparent rarity and episodic nature lead to highly uncertain climate impacts. In situ measurements of pyroCb smoke reveal its distinctive and exceptionally stable aerosol properties and define the long-term influence of pyroCb activity on the stratospheric aerosol budget. Analysis of 13 years of airborne observations shows that pyroCb are responsible for 10 to 25% of the black carbon and organic aerosols in the "present-day" lower stratosphere, with similar impacts in both the North and South Hemispheres. These results suggest that, should pyroCb increase in frequency and/or magnitude in future climates, they could generate dominant trends in stratospheric aerosol.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Risk models have been developed for predicting stroke and stroke-associated mortality among patients with T2DM. Here, we evaluated risk factors of stroke for individualized prevention measures in patients with T2DM in northern China. METHODS In the community-based Tianjin Chronic Disease Cohort study, 58,042 patients were enrolled between January 2014 and December 2019. We used multiple imputation (MI) to impute missing variables and univariate and multivariate Cox's proportional hazard regression to screen risk factors of stroke. Furthermore, we established and validated first-ever prediction models for stroke (Model 1 and Model 2) and death from stroke (Model 3) and evaluated their performance. RESULTS In the derivation and validation groups, the area under the curves (AUCs) of Models 1-3 was better at 5 years than at 8 years. The Harrell's C-index for all models was above 0.7. All models had good calibration, discrimination, and clinical net benefit. Sensitivity analysis using the MI dataset indicated that all models had good and stable prediction performance. CONCLUSION In this study, we developed and validated first-ever risk prediction models for stroke and death from stroke in patients with T2DM, with good discrimination and calibration observed in all models. Based on lifestyle, demographic characteristics, and laboratory examination, these models could provide multidimensional management and individualized risk assessment. However, the models developed here may only be applicable to Han Chinese.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is a highly prevalent disease with distinct sex pattern. We aimed to estimate the sex specific incidence, prevalence, and disability-adjusted life (DALYs) years of osteoporosis between 1990 and 2019, with additional predictions from 2020 to 2034. METHODS We collected osteoporosis disease burden data from the Global Burden of Disease study covering the years 1990 through 2019 in 204 countries and territories. The data included information on the number of incident cases of osteoporosis, DALYs, age-standardized incidence rates (ASIR), age-standardized prevalence rates (ASPR) and age-standardized DALYs rates. Additionally, we performed an age-period-cohort analysis to forecast the burden of osteoporosis. RESULTS The global number of incidence cases of osteoporosis, in 2019, reached 41.5 million cases. From 1990 to 2019, the low-middle socio-demographic index (SDI) region had the highest estimated annual percentage change in the world. Compared to males, female's ASIR and ASPR were all about 1.5 times higher than males for the same years in the same SDI regions. The projected global total number of incidence cases for osteoporosis between 2030 and 2034 is estimated to reach 263.2 million (154.4 million for females and 108.8 for males). Additionally, the burden in terms of DALYs is predicted to be 128.7 million (with 78.4 million for females and 50.3 million for males). CONCLUSION The global burden of osteoporosis is still increasing, mainly observed in high SDI countries. Females bear a burden 1.5 times higher than males in terms of incidence and DALYs. Steps should be taken to reduce the osteoporosis burden, especially in high SDI countries.

Abstract
The purpose of this ambispective study was to investigate whether deep learning-based automatic segmentation and landmark detection, the SkullEngine, could be used for orthognathic surgical planning. Sixty-one sets of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images were automatically inferred for midface, mandible, upper and lower teeth, and 68 landmarks. The experimental group included automatic segmentation and landmarks, while the control group included manual ones that were previously used to plan orthognathic surgery. The qualitative analysis of segmentation showed that all of the automatic results could be used for computer-aided surgical simulation. Among these, 98.4% of midface, 70.5% of mandible, 98.4% of upper teeth, and 93.4% of lower teeth could be directly used without manual revision. The Dice similarity coefficient was 96% and the average symmetric surface distance was 0.1 mm for all four structures. With SkullEngine, it took 4 minutes to complete the automatic segmentation and an additional 10 minutes for a manual touchup. The results also showed the overall mean difference between the two groups was 2.3 mm for the midface and 2.4 mm for the mandible. In summary, the authors believe that automatic segmentation using SkullEngine is ready for daily practice. However, the accuracy of automatic landmark digitization needs to be improved.

Abstract
Abstract
The objective of this study was to reveal the potential of using Fourier transform mid-infrared (FTIR) and near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy as tools for the determination of indigestible neutral (NDF) fraction (iNDF) of barley plant silage. A total of 48 barley plant silage samples collected from different farms in Western Canada provinces were analyzed for iNDF. Reference values were matched with NIR and FTIR spectra. Spectral data processing (pretreatments) included first derivative (FD), standard normal variate (SNV), multiplicative scattering correction (MSC), second derivative (SD) and orthogonal signal correction (OSC). Prediction equations were obtained from each model using an external validation set. The determination coefficient of external validation (R2P) of iNDF was 0.62 for FTIR, while 0.41 for NIR and the corresponding ratio performance deviation (RPD) were 1.69 and 1.38 in FTIR and NIR, respectively. Results from this research showed the high potential of applying infrared molecular spectroscopy for the examination of forage plant fiber digestibility. More studies are needed to improve the accuracy and performance of FTIR and NIR spectroscopies in predicting the iNDF of barley plant silage samples.

Abstract
Abstract
The objective of this study was to characterize physiochemical and nutrient profiles of feedstock and co-products from canola processing that were impacted by source origin to compare feedstocks and co-products (mash and pellet) from five different bio-oil processing plants with five batches of samples in each processing plant in Canada (CA) and in China (CH) collected by the Canola Council of Canada (CCC). The detailed physicochemical and nutrients parameters for ruminants were determined in chemical composition, TDN and truly digestible nutrients, energy profile (ME, NE), and protein and carbohydrate subfractions and their degradation and digestion in dairy cows. The data were analyzed using the Mixed model procedure in SAS 9.4 with RCBD. The treatment differences were compared using Tukey method. The results showed CP was greater in CH meals (P=0.003). The EE was not different between CA and CH (P >0.05). TDN1x was similar in canola meals regardless of the country (P >0.05). CH meals and feedstock had greater tdCP and tdNDF than CA (P< 0.05), while CA had greater tdNFC (P< 0.05). The energy values of ME3x, NELp3x, NEm3x, and NEg3x were similar in canola meals from both countries (P >0.05). No differences were observed in the energy profile of feedstock between CA and CH (P >0.05). The results also showed that pelleting affected the protein fractionation of CA canola meals (P< 0.05). Canola meals were different between CA and CH in the soluble (PA2) and slowly degradable fractions (PB2) (P< 0.05). The carbohydrate fractions of soluble fiber (CB2), digestible fiber (CB3), and indigestible fiber (CC) were different among CH meals (P< 0.05). CH presented greater water-soluble carbohydrate (CA4, P=0.04) and less CB2 (P=0.01) and CC (P< 0.001) than CA canola meals. Although the seeds were similar within and between counties, the oil-extraction process and pelleting seemed to have generated some different aspects on the meals in both countries.

Abstract
Abstract
To our knowledge, there are few studies on the association between carbohydrate molecular structure spectral profiles of barley grain and ruminant-relevant nutritional characteristics. This study aimed to study associate processing-induced changes in carbohydrate molecular structure with changes in ruminant-relevant carbohydrate nutritional profiles. The heat processing methods included: dry roasting, autoclaving, and microwave irradiation. The ruminant-relevant carbohydrate nutritional profiles were determined which included carbohydrate chemical profiles, carbohydrate subfractions, ruminant-relevant carbohydrate digestion. The molecular structure spectral profiles were determined using vibrational molecular spectroscopy (ATR-FT/IR). The results showed that heat related processing significantly induced carbohydrate molecular spectral profiles. The heat related processing also significantly changed ruminant-relevant nutritional characteristics. There was an association between processing induced carbohydrate molecular structure changes and ruminant-relevant carbohydrate nutritional profiles. The advanced vibrational molecular spectroscopic technique (ATR-FTIR) shows the great potential as a fast analytical tool to predict ruminant-relevant carbohydrate nutritional characteristics.

Abstract
Background Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has become a crucial direction for ischemic stroke treatment. This study sought to explore the underlying roles of YaoYi-moxibustion (YY-moxi) in ischemic stroke. Methods A total of 75 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into the following 5 groups: (I) the sham-operated group; (II) the middle cerebral artery occlusion model (MCAO) group; (III) the YY-moxi group; (IV) the antioxidant (N-acetylcysteine, NAC) group; and (V) the NAC + YY-moxi group. After the model had been established, the NAC group received intracerebroventricular injections of NAC, the YY-moxi group received YY-moxi, and the NAC + YY-moxi group received a combination of these 2 interventions. The neurological deficit score was confirmed, and the cerebral infarction was examined by triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining. In the ischemia site of stroke, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated Dutp nick end labeling staining was applied to examine the apoptotic cells. Additionally, the apoptosis-associated genes and protein expressions in the ischemic brains were investigated by the reverse transcription quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), immunohistochemistry, and western blot analysis. Results YY-moxi alone and YY-moxi combined with NAC significantly reduced the neurological scores and cerebral infarction area of the MCAO rats. Additionally, YY-moxi alone and the combined application of YY-moxi and NAC improved the pathological status of ischemic brain tissues. Further, we found that YY-moxi alone and YY-moxi in combination with NAC could enhanced the antioxidation ability and reduced the inflammatory response of the MCAO model rats. We also proved that YY-moxi alone and YY-moxi combined with NAC significantly suppressed apoptosis-related proteins in the MCAO model rats. Conclusions These findings indicate that YY-moxi exerts a protective effect on cerebral ischemic injury by reducing apoptosis. The study suggests that the mechanism may be related to its downregulating the expression of nuclear factor kappa B (NK-κB).

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) exhibits strong stability on conventional stainless steel (SS) surface, with infectious virus detected even after two days, posing a high risk of virus transmission via surface touching in public areas. In order to mitigate the surface toughing transmission, the present study develops the first SS with excellent anti-pathogen properties against SARS-COV-2. The stabilities of SARS-CoV-2, H1N1 influenza A virus (H1N1), and Escherichia coli (E.coli) on the surfaces of Cu-contained SS, pure Cu, Ag-contained SS, and pure Ag were investigated. It is discovered that pure Ag and Ag-contained SS surfaces do not display apparent inhibitory effects on SARS-CoV-2 and H1N1. In comparison, both pure Cu and Cu-contained SS with a high Cu content exhibit significant antiviral properties. Significantly, the developed anti-pathogen SS with 20 wt% Cu can distinctly reduce 99.75% and 99.99% of viable SARS-CoV-2 on its surface within 3 and 6 h, respectively. In addition, the present anti-pathogen SS also exhibits an excellent inactivation ability for H1N1 influenza A virus (H1N1), and Escherichia coli (E.coli). Interestingly, the Cu ion concentration released from the anti-pathogen SS with 10 wt% and 20 wt% Cu was notably higher than the Ag ion concentration released from Ag and the Ag-contained SS. Lift buttons made of the present anti-pathogen SS are produced using mature powder metallurgy technique, demonstrating its potential applications in public areas and fighting the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 and other pathogens via surface touching.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the preparation of inlay cavities, a choice must be made between conventional standard and minimally invasive preparation designs; in the long run, this choice can affect the integrity of the bonded interface. PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of minimally invasive cavity preparation designs on the extent and contributing mechanisms of damage to ceramic inlay bonded interfaces. METHODS AND MATERIALS Tooth blocks with 90°, 120° and 75° marginal angles were prepared, representing tooth cavities with conventional standard and minimally invasive preparations with large divergence and convergence angles and bonded to monolithic ceramic (IPS e.max CAD). Vickers indentations were placed at various distances from the bonded interface. The indentation morphology and crack length were observed. Reciprocating wear tests were performed on the bonded interface with a 20-newton (N) vertical load. The wear depth and wear-scar morphology were characterized after increments of cyclic sliding contact. RESULTS The 120° group exhibited longer indentation cracks in the ceramic, whereas the 75° group showed larger indentations in the enamel when compared to the 90° group (p<0.001). Consistent with the weaker edge crack resistance, the 120° group experienced the greatest wear (p=0.008), and the wear depth in the enamel of the 75° group exceeded that of the 90° group (p<0.001) in the early stage (5×102 cycles). However, no significant difference in the wear depth (p>0.147) and morphology were found at the later wear stage among the three groups. CONCLUSION Within the limitations of this study, minimally invasive preparations with 120° and 75° marginal angles can result in early sever damage at the ceramic inlay bonded interface but show comparable wear behaviors to the conventional 90° group at the later stage.

Abstract
Canola was created as a low erucic acid and low glucosinolate seed, to produce high quality oil for human consumption and meal for use in livestock feed. China is an important user of Canadian canola products (seeds, oil, and meal). The extraction of the oil from the seed produces a co-product called canola meal. This meal is rich in protein and is used as a protein source in animal diets. However, differences in the characteristics of the seeds, or processing methods during oil extraction may affect the quality of this co-product. Plus, the synthesis of tissues and milk is related to the amino acids available to the animal for absorption in the small intestine. This study aimed to determine if there are significant differences in the intestinal digestibility (in vitro) of CP and DM between canola seeds and meals from different companies in Canada and to determine if there are significant differences between them in Canada and China. The three-step procedure was applied on residues from a 12-hour rumen incubation in fistulated dairy cows to estimate the intestinal digestibility of CP and DM. There were significant differences (P < 0.05) for TDDM (Total digestible dry matter) and IDP (intestinal digestibility of protein) of the meals between countries. The samples from China had higher TDDM (83.76% versus 81.53%, P = 0.018), while Canada’s had higher IDP (68.51% versus 65.28%, P = 0.016). No significant differences were observed within countries. Based on the material analyzed during this study, it is safe to affirm that there are no significant differences in the digestibility of DM and CP between Canada and China. It was concluded that the quality of the canola seeds or meals produced in both Canada and China were similar when used in dairy rations.

Abstract
Abstract
As an advanced technique, synchrotron radiation-based microspectroscopy SR-FTIRM has been a rapid, direct, non-destructive and non-invasive bioanalytical method. Globar molecular spectroscopic technique -attenuated total reflectance-ATR-FTIR spectroscopy will be used. For this research, feed type CDC Nasser, forage type CDC haymaker, and milling types CDC Arborg and Summit with three consecutive years are studied. There are three treatments for oat samples: Treatment 1, steam pressure processing alone; Treatment 2, adding innovative fibrolytic enzyme; Treatment 3, steam pressure processing plus fibrolytic enzyme. Each treatment combination has three replications. The objectives of this research are to detect the molecular structure spectral features of processed oat endosperm tissues at a molecular and cellular level in relation to chemical profiles, protein and carbohydrate fractions, energy profiles, degradation kinetics, intestinal digestibility, microbial protein production and true nutrient supply of whole oat grains. This research reveals the interactive association between induced molecular structure changes and nutrient properties and true nutrient supply. This research is also to increase economic returns to oat producers and related dairy industries through efficient utilization of feed-type or milling type of oat grains.

Abstract
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of varieties and heat processing methods on molecular structural, physicochemical, and nutritional characterization of feed chickpeas; evaluate the effect of heat processing methods, dry heat, wet heat and microwave irradiation processing method on feed chickpeas as an alternative source for protein and energy feed for ruminant livestock. To reveal the molecular structure spectral profile of chickpeas varieties and the molecular structure changes when applied heat processing methods, vibrational molecular spectroscopy was applied. Feed chickpea samples were determined for chemical profile, energy values, carbohydrate fractions. Subsequently, chickpea samples were incubated in the rumen of dairy cows for degradation kinetics analysis of nutrients. The intestinal digestion of feed chickpea samples was determined using three-step in vitro method with pre-incubation at 16h. Later, protein and carbohydrate related molecular spectral features before and after incubation were performed using vibrational ATR-FTIR molecular spectroscopy. The interactive relationship between processing induced molecular spectral profile changes and nutrient metabolism and availability were studied. The available results showed that varieties and heat processing methods significantly impacted molecular structural, physicochemical, and nutritional characterization of feed chickpeas.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the influencing factors on the vaulting one month after implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation, and to develop and verify a prediction formula. Methods: The first half of this study was retrospective case series study, and the second half was cross-sectional stydy. A total of 83 eyes of 83 patients who underwent ICL implantation in the Lixiang Eye Hospital of Soochow University were included in the first half of the study, with an average age of (27±5) years, from August 1, 2019 to December 30, 2019. All patients underwent a complete preoperative examination, including axis length, anterior chamber depth, comprehensive optometry, intraocular pressure, central corneal thickness, white-to-white diameter, horizontal and vertical sulcus-to-sulcus diameter (STS), crystalline lens thickness (LT), corneal curvature, and bright and dark pupil diameter. Multiple linear regression (stepwise) was used to develop a prediction formula. In the validation part, a total of 65 people (65 eyes) were included, with an average age of (26±5) years, from March 1, 2020 to June 1, 2020. The accuracy and reliability of the formula were verified by the intergroup correlation coefficient and Bland-Altman consistency test. Results: At 1 month after surgery, ICL size had the greatest impact on the vaulting (β=0.942, P<0.001), followed by horizontal STS (β=-0.517, P<0.001), LT (β=-0.376, P<0.001), and vertical STS (β=-0.257, P=0.017). The influence of other factors was not statistically significant (all P>0.05). The regression equation was as follows: the vaulting (μm)=-1 369.05+657.12×ICL size-287.41×horizontal STS-432.50×LT-137.33×vertical STS (the fitting degree R=0.813, R2=0.660, and corrected R2=0.643). In the verification part, the predicted average vaulting was (497.31±102.75) μm, while the actual vaulting was (514.62±152.99) μm. About 96.92% (63/65) of the patients were fitted in the moderate vault, and 3.08% (2/65) were in the high vault. The intergroup correlation coefficient was 0.581. According to the Bland-Altman test, the actual vaulting was 17.31 μm, higher than the predicted value, and the 95% confidence interval of the difference was -260.28 to 294.90 μm. Conclusion: The ICL size, horizontal and vertical STS and LT are the factors that affect and predict the vaulting one month after ICL implantation, and our prediction formula has good accuracy and reliability.

Abstract
Abstract
Preventing the leakage of radioactive materials is important to nuclear safety. During a station blackout accident in pressurized water reactors, the hot leg creep rupture caused by hot leg countercurrent flow occurs before the reactor pressure vessel failure that caused by lower head rupture. The secondary fission products barrier is lost after hot leg creep rupture. An analysis for this phenomenon was done using the Modular Accident Analysis Program version 4.0.4 code. A station blackout accident for CPR1000 is simulated and the occurrence and influence of hot leg creep rupture phenomenon are analyzed in detail. After that, a sensitivity analysis of the opening of different pressurizer pilot-operated relief valves at five minutes after entering severe accident management guideline (before the hot leg creep rupture occurs) is studied. The results show that reactor pressure vessel failure time can be extended by at least 4 h if at least one pilot-operated relief valve is opened and direct containment heating phenomenon can be eliminated if at least two pilot-operated relief valves are opened.

Abstract
Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of CYP2C19 gene mutations on clopidogrel antiplatelet activity in the patients with coronary heart disease treated by percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods: Patients with coronary heart disease, who hospitalized in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from March 2011 to June 2019, and healthy individuals with matching genetic background, gender, and age as controls were included in this study. Basic clinical data were analyzed and blood samples of all research subjects were obtained for extraction of DNA, and Sanger first-generation sequencing method was used to detect CYP2C19 gene mutation from full exon and exon and intron junction. CYP2C19 gene variations in patients with coronary heart disease were compared with the 1000 Genomes Browse database and the sequencing results of healthy controls to determine whether the gene variation was a genetic mutation or a genetic polymorphism. After that, PolyPhen-2 prediction software was used to analyze the harmfulness of gene mutations to predict the effect of mutations on protein function. The same dose of CYP2C19 wild-type plasmid and the CYP2C19 gene mutant plasmids were transfected into human normal liver cells HL-7702. After transfection of 24 h, the expression of CYP2C19 protease in each group was detected. The liver S9 protein was incubated with clopidogrel, acted on platelets to detect the platelet aggregation rate and the activity of human vasodilator-activated phosphoprotein (VASP). Results: A total of 1 493 patients with coronary heart disease (59.36%) were enrolled, the average age was (64.5±10.4) years old, of which 1 129 were male (75.62%). Meanwhile, 1 022 healthy physical examination volunteers (40.64%) were enrolled, and the average age was (64.1±11.0) years old, of which 778 were male (76.13%). A total of 5 gene mutations of CYP2C19 gene were identified in 12 patients (0.80%), namely, 4 known mutations T130K (1 case), M136K (6 cases), N277K (3 cases), V472I (1 case) and one new mutation G27V (1 case), no corresponding gene mutation was found in healthy controls. It was found that T130K and M136K were probably damaging, G27V was possibly damaging, and N277K and V472I were benign mutations. In vitro, we demonstrated that the platelet aggregation rate of the M136K gene mutation group was 24.83% lower than that of the wild type (59.58% vs. 34.75%; P<0.05), and the phosphorylated VASP level was 23.0% higher than that of the wild type (1.0 vs. 1.23; P<0.05). However, the platelet aggregation rate and phosphorylated VASP level were similar between of G27V, T130K, N277K, V472I gene mutation groups and wild type group (P>0.05). Conclusions: In this study, 5 gene mutations are defined in patients with coronary heart disease, namely G27V, T130K, M136K, N277K, V472I. In vitro functional studies show that CYP2C19 gene mutation M136K, as a gain-of-function gene mutation, can enhance the activation of CYP2C19 enzyme on clopidogrel, thereby inhibiting the platelet aggregation rate.

Abstract
Cardiomyocyte-Restricted High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) Deletion Leads to small heart and inflammation Through GR/PGC-1a signaling
Background
Cardiac growth and remodeling are key biological process influencing the physiological performance of the heart. Previous study showed critical role of intracellular HMGB1 in vitro. However, the in vivo study using conditional Hmgb1 ablation did not significantly affect the cellular and organic function.
Purpose
Previously we have demonstrated the extracellular effect of HMGB1 as a proinflammatory molecule on cardiac remodeling. Here, to elucidate the intracellular effect of HMGB1 on cardiac function in vivo, we perform the study.
Methods
Conditional genetic deletion of HMGB1 mouse was constructed using cTnT-Cre Hmgb1fl/fl. And then we detected body weight, and analyzed cardiac function of 12-week old mice using echocardiography. The subcelluar morphology was detected using the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) examination, and the changes of glycolipid metabolism was detected by the positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) imaging and GC-FID/MS analysis in heart tissue. And Then we used RNA-seq to find transcriptomic changes. And co-immunoprecipitation experiments, chromatin immunoprecipiptation (ChIP) were used to validate the binding of HMGB1 and glucocorticoid receptor (GR). The downstream signal changes were detected using western blot analysis. To validate the result, we further constructed the cardiac HMGB1 deficient mouse using Ckmm-Cre Hmgb1fl/fl, and measured body weight and cardiac function.
Results
We found HMGB1 deletion by cTnT-Cre in mouse hearts altered GR function, glycolipid metabolism, and eventually led to growth retardation, small heart, and heart failure. The subcelluar morphology didn't show significant change caused by HMGB1 knockout. The heart showed significantly elevation of glycolysis and free fatty acid deposition, and related enzyme changes. Transcriptomic analysis revealed a list of differential expressed genes, which coincide with the glucocorticoid receptor function in neonatal mice, and significant increase inflammatory genes of the adult ones. The cardiac HMGB1 knockout lead to a series changes of PGC-1a, UCP3, and glycerol kinase, which were the cause of metabolic change and further impact the cardiac function. And the Ckmm-Cre Hmgb1fl/fl mouse didn't show significant phenotype, which was consistent with the reported negative result of Cardiomyocyte-specific Hmgb1 deletion via MHC-Cre.
Conclusions
Therefore, our results demonstrated that HMGB1 plays an essential role in maintaining normal cardiac growth and function by regulating GR function and glycolipid metabolism. And the strikingly different phenotype from the cardiac-specific HMGB1-deficient mice may be caused by the cross with different Cre mouse.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the role of the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R)/β-catenin signaling axis in bone impairment induced by hyperglycemia in ovariectomized rats. METHODS Rats were divided into four groups. The sham group received sham operation and a single intraperitoneal administration of vehicle. The ovariectomy (OVX) group was subjected to bilateral OVX and vehicle injection. The streptozotocin (STZ) group received sham operation and a single STZ injection to induce hyperglycemia. The OVX + STZ group received bilateral OVX and a single STZ injection. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measurement, bone biomechanics test, micro-computed tomography scan, and hematoxylin-eosin staining were performed to evaluate bone alteration in this model. The expression of relevant signals including IGF-1R, glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β), and β-catenin were examined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blot. RESULTS The OVX, STZ, and OVX + STZ groups induced bone loss, attenuated bone strength, and impaired microarchitecture compared with the sham group, respectively. Compared with OVX, more serious bone damage was found in the OVX + STZ group, which showed enhanced phosphorylation of IGF-1R, GSK-3β, and β-catenin. CONCLUSION OVX plus STZ induced more serious bone impairment than OVX alone, which involves the IGF-1R/β-catenin signaling axis in the pathogenesis. This may provide a potential target for treatment of postmenopausal diabetic osteoporosis.

Abstract
The objectives of this study were to reveal the implication of modified chemical profiles of protein in cool-season-adapted cereal seeds through heat-related processing to protein nutrition and metabolic characteristics in ruminant systems. The parameters of protein-related chemical and nutritive profiles modified by heat-related processing included (a) chemical and nutrient profiles, (b) degradation kinetics (Kd and BCP), (c) digestion (IDP and TDP), (d) degraded protein balance (DPB/OEB value), and (e) metabolizable protein (MP, DVE, and FMV values). The seeds used in this study included cool-season-adapted wheat (CSW), triticale (CST), and corn (CSC). Each grain source had 3 consecutive year-replicated samples and were subjected to different heat-related processing: dry heating (DH) and moist heating (MH). The results showed that (1) the heat-related processing significantly modified metabolic characteristics of protein in the seeds (p < 0.05), (2) in comparison to DH, MH had a dramatic improvement (p < 0.05) in protein utilization profiles (decreased rumen degradation and increased intestinal digestion), (3) the seeds had significant (p < 0.05) difference in rumen degradation and intestinal digestion, (4) among the seeds, the CSW had the highest milk value (FMV; p < 0.05) and was increased by MH application (p < 0.05), and (5) the results showed that the seeds responded independently to different heat-related processing. MH-related processing had a more profound impact on CSW and CST in chemical profiles and nutrition. The CSC had less response to the heat-related processing.

Abstract
This study aimed to (1) access protein molecular structure profile and metabolic characteristics of model forages [Foreign sourced-origin (coded as: "FSO", n = 7 vs. Chinese sourced-origin alfalfa hay "CSO", n = 5] in ruminant systems; (2) Quantify the relationship between forage protein molecular structures and protein utilization and availability. Advanced non-invasive vibrational molecular spectroscopic technique (ATR-FTIR: Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy) with chemometrics was applied to reveal forage protein molecular structure. Both univariate and multivariate molecular spectral analyses were applied to study molecular structure features in model forages. The molecular structure study provided the detailed protein structure profiles of Amide I and Amide II areas and height, total Amide I and II area ratios, Amide I to II height ratio as well as Amide I to II area ratio using ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. The results showed FSO and CSO had similar (P > 0.05) protein rumen degradation kinetics. However, FSO had superior quality than CSO in intestinal (IDP) and total digestible protein (TDP) and truly absorbed nutrient supply (P < 0.05). As intestinal digestion of protein, FSO was higher (P < 0.05) in protein digestion in terms of: intestinal digestibility of rumen undegraded protein (dIDP: 47.5 vs. 38.3 %RUP); Intestinal digestible protein (IDP: 17.6 vs. 13.7 %CP). As truly absorbed nutrient supply, FSO contained higher (P < 0.05) truly absorbed rumen synthesized microbial protein, absorbable rumen undegradable feed protein in the small intestine, total truly digested protein in the small intestine, metabolizable protein and Feed Milk Value (FMVDVE: 1.2 vs. 1.1 g/kg DM). The molecular structure-nutrition interactive relationship study showed that protein molecular structure profiles were highly associated to protein rumen degradation kinetics, significantly correlated to protein subfractions, protein intestinal digestion, and truly absorbed nutrient supply in ruminant systems.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the health status of occupational mercury workers and reveal the effects of mercury exposure on the cardiovascular system. Methods: In June 2019, a total of 2651 mercury workers participated in the occupational health examination between 2016-2018 from a thermometer manufacturing plant and a fluorescent lamp manufacturing plant were included in this study. Then, they were divided into a high-level mercury exposure group (425 workers whose urine mercury concentration >35 μg/g creatinine) and a low-mercury mercury exposure group (2226 workers whose urinary mercury concentration <35 μg/g creatinine) . Mercury concentration in the workplace was also detected. Finally, the results of electrocardiogram (ECG) , blood routine, blood biochemistry and other physical examinations were analyzed. The measurement data of age and exposure years were analyzed by test. Urinary mercury and blood parameters were analyzed by Mann-Whitney nonparametric test. Chi-square test was used for the analyses of gender, ECG abnormality rate and other categorical data. Results: The 8-hour weighted average allowable concentration (CTWA) of mercury in the workplace of high-exposure group was 0.002 2-0.152 mg/m(3). The abnormal rate of ECG in the high-exposed group (29.6%) was higher than that in the low-exposure group (10.1%) in 2018 (P<0.01) . Compared with the low-exposure group, the WBC of the high-exposure group from 2016 to 2018 was increased, with statistically significance (P<0.05) ; the RBC of the high-exposure group in 2016 and 2017 was decreased, with statistically significance (P<0.01) ; the total bilirubin concentration in the high-exposure group was decreased from 2016 to 2018, with statistically significance (P<0.05) . Conclusion: Long-term exposure to high concentration of mercury in the workplace may influence cardiovascular system. Therefore, engineering protection and individual protection should be implemented well.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Growing evidence has shown that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play some roles in the progression of osteoarthritis. In this study, we investigated the functions and mechanisms of lncRNA NKILA (NKILA) of chondrocytes in human osteoarthritis (OA). PATIENTS AND METHODS RT-PCR was used to detect the expressions of NKILA and miR-145 in OA tissues. After transfection of NKILA overexpression lentivirus (LV-NKILA) and NKILA downregulation lentivirus (LV-shNKILA) into primary chondrocytes, MTT assay was carried out to measure the cell proliferation of chondrocytes. The expressions of SP1, Bcl-2, Bax, cleaved caspase-3 and NF-κB signaling factors were detected by Western blot. Moreover, luciferase assay was performed to explore the binding site of NKILA and miR-145, miR-145 and SP1. Finally, JSH, a NF-κB signaling inhibitor, was added into chondrocytes transfected with LV-shNKILA or miR-145 mimic to detect that NKILA functions via miR-145/SP1/NF-κB signaling pathway. RESULTS We found that NKILA and SP1 were significantly reduced, miR-145 was increased in cartilage tissues of OA patients. After LV-NKILA transfection, the proliferation ability of chondrocytes was improved and cell apoptosis was inhibited; however, the proliferation ability of chondrocytes was repressed, and cell apoptosis was increased in LV-sh NKILA group. MiR-145 was predicted to be a potential target of NKILA and luciferase gene reporter assay confirmed that NKILA could directly bind with miR-145. Furthermore, SP1 was predicted to be a target gene of miR-145 and luciferase gene reporter assay proved that miR-145 could directly bind with SP1. Finally, we added JSH, a NF-κB signaling inhibitor, into chondrocytes with LV-shNKILA or miR-145 mimic. Results showed that the repressed SP1 was reversed after the addition of JSH in both LV-shNKILA and miR-145 mimic group. Further, the repressed proliferation capacities and promoted cell apoptosis were also reversed after the addition of JSH. CONCLUSIONS According to the results, this study uncovers NKILA is reduced in human osteoarthritic cartilage tissues. Furthermore, we firstly uncover that the reduced NKILA could function as a ceRNA to improve miR-145, which inhibited SP1 expression and regulated NF-κB signaling pathway, thereby promoting tissue inflammation, and inhibiting proliferation and promoting apoptosis of chondrocytes. Thus, it may be used as a promising prognostic marker and a potential target for osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Heracleum moellendorffii Hance is a medicinal vegetable species, and the seed dormancy of this species has caused many agricultural problems. One stratification technique involves alternating layers of seeds and substrate to allow post-ripening of dormant seeds under appropriate environmental conditions and to release dormancy. Non-stratified seeds (NS), cotyledon-stage-embryo seeds (CS) and germinated seeds (GS) represent key stages of H. moellendorffii seeds during stratification. To better understand the breaking of dormancy caused by stratification, tandem mass tag (TMT) mass spectrometry (MS)/MS was used to detect proteins among NS, CS and GS. A total of 876 proteins were identified, which were subjected to Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses. The results showed that carbohydrate metabolic processes, responses to stress and ribosome biogenesis were the main biological processes. The changes in protein accumulation were validated by qRT-PCR. The results showed that starch, sucrose, pyruvate and fatty acid metabolism played significant roles and that the contents of stored substances were gradually degraded during stratification. This study provides a theoretical basis in terms of proteomics for exploring the post-ripening and germination of H. moellendorffii seeds.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) H19 in endometrial carcinoma was studied, and its mechanism was also explored. PATIENTS AND METHODS Quantitative Reverse Transcriptase-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of lncRNA H19, miR-612, and HOXA10 in endometrial carcinoma, and the relationship between lncRNA H19 and survival time was analyzed. The high expression or knockdown of lncRNA H19 in endometrial cancer cells was completed by cell transfection experiments. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay was used to detect changes in the viability of endometrial cancer cells. Dual luciferase reporter assay was performed to verify that miR-612 could bind to lncRNA H19 or HOXA10. QRT-PCR and Western Blot assays were used to detect changes in the expression of HOXA10 in endometrial cancer cells before and after overexpression or knockdown of lncRNA H19. RESULTS The expression of lncRNA H19 and HOXA10 was high in endometrial carcinoma and miR-612 was lowly expressed. The survival curve suggested that lncRNA H19 was negatively correlated with patient survival. The mRNA expression of lncRNA H19 in endometrial cancer cells, including HEC1-A, HEC1-B, AN3CA, and Ishikawa, was detected by qRT-PCR. It was found that the expression of lncRNA H19 was highest in AN3CA and lowest in Ishikawa. The cell transfection experiments allowed Ishikawa cells to overexpress lncRNA H19 and AN3CA cells to reduce lncRNA H19 expression. After overexpression of lncRNA H19, the viability of Ishikawa cells as well as the mRNA and protein levels of HOXA10 increased. However, after knocking down lncRNA H19, the viability of AN3CA cells along with the mRNA and protein levels of HOXA10 decreased. The dual luciferase reporter assay results suggested that miR-612 could bind to lncRNA H19 and HOXA10. CONCLUSIONS The high expression of lncRNA H19 in endometrial carcinoma may regulate the expression level of its target gene HOXA10 by targeting miR-612, thus promoting cell proliferation to play a role in the development of endometrial carcinoma.

Abstract
We perform tunneling measurements on indium antimonide nanowire-superconductor hybrid devices fabricated for the studies of Majorana bound states. At finite magnetic field, resonances that strongly resemble Majorana bound states, including zero-bias pinning, become common to the point of ubiquity. Since Majorana bound states are predicted in only a limited parameter range in nanowire devices, we seek an alternative explanation for the observed zero-bias peaks. With the help of a self-consistent Poission-Schrödinger multiband model developed in parallel, we identify several families of trivial subgap states that overlap and interact, giving rise to a crowded spectrum near zero energy and zero-bias conductance peaks in experiments. These findings advance the search for Majorana bound states through improved understanding of broader phenomena found in superconductor-semiconductor systems.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to apply ATR-FTIR spectroscopy to reveal feed molecular structure properties of oil-seeds and co-products and relationship with protein and carbohydrate degradation fractions in ruminant systems. The oil-seeds and co-products were from both various bio-processing industries in Canada and China. The protein and carbohydrate degradation fractions were evaluated with updated CNCPS system. Results showed that in the co-products from canola processing industries there are strong relationship between 1) soluble true protein (PA2) fraction and the following protein molecular structure spectral characteristics; spectral peak area of amide I and amide II (r = 0.56, P = 0.001), area of amide I (r = 0.67, P < 0.001), height of amide I (r = 0.74, P < 0.001), amide I and II ratio (r = 0.57, P = 0.001), α-helix (r = 0.82, P < 0.001), and β-sheet (r = 0.61, P < 0.001), 2) slowly degradable true protein (PB2) fraction and height of amide I (r = -0.60, P = 0.001), α-helix (r = -0.72, P < 0.001), and β-sheet (r = -0.51, P = 0.004), 3) soluble fiber (CB2) fraction and α-helix and β-sheet height ratio (r = -0.63, P < 0.001), and 4) unavailable NDF (CC) fraction and height of amide I (r = 0.55, P = 0.002). These results indicated feed molecular structure spectral properties of the oil-seeds and co-products related to CNCPS protein and carbohydrate degradation fractions in ruminant systems.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There are variable reports of risk of concordance for progression to islet autoantibodies and type 1 diabetes in identical twins after one twin is diagnosed. We examined development of positive autoantibodies and type 1 diabetes and the effects of genetic factors and common environment on autoantibody positivity in identical twins, nonidentical twins, and full siblings. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Subjects from the TrialNet Pathway to Prevention Study (N = 48,026) were screened from 2004 to 2015 for islet autoantibodies (GAD antibody [GADA], insulinoma-associated antigen 2 [IA-2A], and autoantibodies against insulin [IAA]). Of these subjects, 17,226 (157 identical twins, 283 nonidentical twins, and 16,786 full siblings) were followed for autoantibody positivity or type 1 diabetes for a median of 2.1 years. RESULTS At screening, identical twins were more likely to have positive GADA, IA-2A, and IAA than nonidentical twins or full siblings (all P < 0.0001). Younger age, male sex, and genetic factors were significant factors for expression of IA-2A, IAA, one or more positive autoantibodies, and two or more positive autoantibodies (all P ≤ 0.03). Initially autoantibody-positive identical twins had a 69% risk of diabetes by 3 years compared with 1.5% for initially autoantibody-negative identical twins. In nonidentical twins, type 1 diabetes risk by 3 years was 72% for initially multiple autoantibody-positive, 13% for single autoantibody-positive, and 0% for initially autoantibody-negative nonidentical twins. Full siblings had a 3-year type 1 diabetes risk of 47% for multiple autoantibody-positive, 12% for single autoantibody-positive, and 0.5% for initially autoantibody-negative subjects. CONCLUSIONS Risk of type 1 diabetes at 3 years is high for initially multiple and single autoantibody-positive identical twins and multiple autoantibody-positive nonidentical twins. Genetic predisposition, age, and male sex are significant risk factors for development of positive autoantibodies in twins.

Abstract
The effects of X-ray radiation on spermatogenesis, sperm motility, and PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) in mice were analyzed. Male C57BL/6 J mice were divided into control and two irradiation groups ( n = 9 mice/group). After irradiation of their reproductive regions, the mice were fed for 3 days (irradiation group 1) or 7 days (control and irradiation group 2). The sperm viability, motility, velocity, and motion curve were analyzed. After piRNA expression profiling, quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction was conducted for validation. Ionizing radiation led to vessel dilation and congestion, fewer spermatogenic cells, and reduced sperm production compared to the control. At 3 and 7 days postirradiation, the sperm count (grade d) increased while sperm viability and sperm lateral head displacement decreased. At 7 days, the sperm abnormality rate was higher compared to the control. Many piRNAs were differentially expressed after irradiation, including decreased and increased expression of mmu_piR_009082 and mmu_piR_020217, respectively. Downregulated piRNAs were involved in Rap1 signaling, non-homologous end-joining, hedgehog signaling, oxytocin signaling, and cholinergic synapse. Upregulated piRNAs participated in pathways including proteoglycans in cancer, phosphatidylinositol signaling, cGMP-PKG signaling, and stem cell pluripotency regulation. X-ray irradiation inhibited spermatogenesis and increased abnormal sperm rate in mice. piRNA-related signaling pathways may be involved in this process.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To comprehend clinical features and patient's physician visit patterns at onset of immunoglobulin G4 related disease (IgG4RD). METHODS In the study, 100 patients with IgG4RD who received treatments in the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology of Peking University People's Hospital from Apr. 1st, 2017 to Apr. 1st, 2018 were investigated, including gender, age, height, body weight, age of onset, physician visit history, primary history and how did the disease affected their life, etc. RESULTS: In this 100 IgG4RD cohort (57 males and 43 females), the male/female ratio was 1:0.75, the mean age of onset was (51.51±12.9) years, and the median duration was 49 months (ranging from 4 to 231 months). The onset age of males was significantly older than that of females (P<0.01). The manifestations showed that up to 69% patients had submaxillay glands lesion, 59% patients had lacrimal glands lesion, 28% patients had pancreas involvement and 28% patients had parotid glands involvement. The females had more lacrimal glands involvement (P<0.05). 62% patients were complicated with anaphylactic disease. The primary physician visit departments concentrated upon general surgery department (19/100), oral and maxillofacial surgery department (17/100), rheumatology and immunology department (16/100), ophthalmology department (15/100) and gastroenterology department (10/100). The departments where the confirmed diagnose was made concentrated upon rheumatology department (67/100),oral and maxillofacial surgery department (16/100) and gastroenterology department (7/100). The mean diagnosis duration after 2010 was (16.96±2.163) months, significantly shorter than that before 2010, which was (113.3±11.01) months. Before the definite diagnose was made, 43% patients underwent surgeries and 12% patients had more than one time surgeries. The patients whose first-visit department was a surgery department were more likely to undergo surgeries (P<0.01). 18% patients (18/100) stated that the disease had affected their work. CONCLUSION In this cohort of the IgG4RD patients, female is common and has earlier onset age than male. The major manifestations of IgG4RD are salivary glands, lacrimal glands and pancreas involvement. The common chief complains are salivary glands and lacrimal glands enlargement. Accompanied by anaphylactic disease is a marked manifestation of this disease. Delayed diagnoses are not rare, though this situation has been improved since 2010, and more attention still should be paid to the disease.
