Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics and the efficacy of thrombus aspiration in patients with early intrastent thrombosis (EST) following carotid artery stenting (CAS). Methods: This study is a retrospective case series, collecting clinical data of five patients who developed EST after CAS in the Department of Neurosurgery, Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2021 to September 2023.All patients were male, with an age of (64.0±11.9) years (range:48 to 77 years), accounting for 2.0% (5/244) of CAS procedures during the same period.Among them, three patients did not receive standard dual antiplatelet therapy before the procedure, and one had an inadequate ADP inhibition rate (45.6%).Four patients received XACT carotid stents, while one received a Wallstent carotid stent.All five patients showed significant residual stenosis ranging from 43% to 55% after CAS.Emergency thrombus aspiration was performed in all cases, and data regarding perioperative conditions, vascular patency, and clinical outcomes were collected. Results: The interval between CAS and the occurrence of EST ranged from 3 hours to 14 days.The main clinical symptoms included sudden onset of consciousness disorders and contralateral limb weakness.None of the patients received preoperative intravenous thrombolysis, and thrombus aspiration was performed during the procedure to restore vascular patency.Four cases underwent balloon angioplasty during the procedure, and two cases utilized overlapping stents.Two patients experienced intraoperative embolization of thrombus to the C2 segment.In one case, the embolized thrombus was retrieved using an intracranial thrombectomy stent, while in another case, it was aspirated using a guiding catheter.Postoperatively, all patients had a thrombolysis in cerebral infarction grade of 3, and symptoms improved in four cases.One patient showed no improvement in symptoms, and MRI revealed extensive new infarction in the right frontal and insular regions, adjacent to the right lateral ventricle.Regular follow-up examinations after discharge did not reveal restenosis or embolism within the stent.The follow-up period ranged from 7.6 to 21.2 months, with modified Rankin scale scores of 0 to 1 point in four cases and 2 points in one case, indicating good recovery in all patients. Conclusions: Acute intrastent thrombosis is a rare complication after carotid artery stenting.The combined use of percutaneous thrombus aspiration and endovascular techniques, such as balloon angioplasty and stent overlapping, can rapidly restore vessel patency with favorable outcomes.However, further large-scale clinical studies are needed to confirm the effectiveness of these treatments for acute intrastent thrombosis.

Abstract
Raman spectroscopy has tremendous potential for material analysis with its molecular fingerprinting capability in many branches of science and technology. It is also an emerging omics technique for metabolic profiling to shape precision medicine. However, precisely attributing vibration peaks coupled with specific environmental, instrumental, and specimen noise is problematic. Intelligent Raman spectral preprocessing to remove statistical bias noise and sample-related errors should provide a powerful tool for valuable information extraction. Here, we propose a novel Raman spectral preprocessing scheme based on self-supervised learning (RSPSSL) with high capacity and spectral fidelity. It can preprocess arbitrary Raman spectra without further training at a speed of ~1 900 spectra per second without human interference. The experimental data preprocessing trial demonstrated its excellent capacity and signal fidelity with an 88% reduction in root mean square error and a 60% reduction in infinite norm ([Formula: see text]) compared to established techniques. With this advantage, it remarkably enhanced various biomedical applications with a 400% accuracy elevation (ΔAUC) in cancer diagnosis, an average 38% (few-shot) and 242% accuracy improvement in paraquat concentration prediction, and unsealed the chemical resolution of biomedical hyperspectral images, especially in the spectral fingerprint region. It precisely preprocessed various Raman spectra from different spectroscopy devices, laboratories, and diverse applications. This scheme will enable biomedical mechanism screening with the label-free volumetric molecular imaging tool on organism and disease metabolomics profiling with a scenario of high throughput, cross-device, various analyte complexity, and diverse applications.

Abstract
We propose a Vernier effect-based sensor for temperature and salinity measurements. This sensor utilizes the correlation speckle pattern generated by spatial multimode interference and has undergone testing to validate its effectiveness. The speckle demodulation method is used to solve the problem of inconsistent envelope measurement when tracking with different upper and lower envelopes. The device consists of two Fabry Perot interferometers (FPIs) created by connecting hole core fiber (HCF) and erbium-doped fiber (EDF) in series. The speckle image produced by the interferometers is analyzed using the Zero means normalized cross-correlation (ZNCC) technique. The ZNCC value demonstrates a linear relationship with salinity and temperature, allowing for the measurement of these parameters. The sensor exhibits a temperature detection sensitivity of -0.0224 /°C and a salinity detection sensitivity of -0.0439/%. The sensor offers several advantageous features, including its compact size, low-cost manufacturing, high sensitivity, stability, and convenient reflection measurements. These characteristics make it a valuable tool for various applications. The proposed Vernier effect-based temperature and salinity sensor shows great potential for simultaneous monitoring and measurement of temperature and salinity in environments such as marine settings or industrial processes where accurate control of these parameters is crucial.

Abstract
We have proposed and demonstrated a weak acoustic signal detection technology based on phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry (Φ-OTDR). Non-contact acoustic signals transmitting through air gap between the sound source and the receiver are difficult to detect due to fast attenuation. In order to improve the detection ability of non-contact weak acoustic signals, we demonstrate that multi-mode fiber (MMF) is a better solution than single-mode fiber (SMF) benefiting from its larger core and higher Rayleigh backscattering (RBS) capture coefficient. The frequency signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) has been enhanced by 9.26 dB. Then, with the help of 3D printing technology, elastomers have been designed to further enhance the detection ability due to the high-sensitive response to acoustic signals. Compared with the previous reported "I" type elastomer, the location and frequency SNR enhancement caused by our new proposed "n" type elastomer are 8.39 dB and 11.02 dB in SMF based system. The values are further improved to 10.51 dB and 13.38 dB in MMF and "n" type elastomer integrated system. And a phase-pressure sensitivity of -94.62 dB re rad/µPa has been achieved at 2.5 kHz. This non-contact weak acoustic signal detection technique has great application potential in the quasi-distributed partial discharge (PD) detection of smart grid.

Abstract
A fiber speckle sensor (FSS) based on a tapered multimode fiber (TMMF) has been developed to measure liquid analyte refractive index (RI) in this work. By the lateral and axial offset of input light into TMMF, several high-order modes are excited in TMMF, and the speckle pattern is spatially modulated, which affects an asymmetrical speckle pattern with a random intensity distribution at the output of TMMF. When the TMMF is immersed in the liquid analyte with RI variation, it influences the guided modes, as well as the mode interference, in TMMF. A digital image correlations method with zero-mean normalized cross-correlation coefficient is explored to digitize the speckle image differences, analyzing the RI variation. It is found that the lateral- and axial-offsets-induced speckle sensor can enhance the RI sensitivity from 6.41 to 19.52 RIU-1 compared to the one without offset. The developed TMMF speckle sensor shows an RI resolution of 5.84 × 10-5 over a linear response range of 1.3164 to 1.3588 at 1550 nm. The experimental results indicate the FSS provides a simple, efficient, and economic approach to RI sensing, which exhibits an enormous potential in the image-based ocean-sensing application.

Abstract
In this paper, the graphdiyne (GDY)-polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) films are prepared by a spin-coating method. The PMMA films have the function of isolating GDY from air and protecting the GDY from mechanical damage. The nonlinear optical properties of GDY-PMMA films are probed experimentally. The nonlinear optical responses of GDY-PMMA films with a modulation depth of ∼4.94% and saturated magnetization of ∼0.3M W/c m 2 are proved. When the GDY-PMMA films are applied to an erbium-doped hybrid passively mode-locked fiber laser (saturable absorber), the bound-state solitons, which are also called soliton molecules, can be obtained. The soliton molecule has a time separation of 13.31 ps, and the spectral modulation period of 0.58 nm. Along with the pump power increase, the separation of bound-state pulses becomes larger. When the pump power is fixed, stable bound solitons can be observed without any degeneration for more than 4.5 h. It is demonstrated that GDY-PMMA films have excellent nonlinear optical performance in a near-infrared regime, which we believe can be a novel type of photonics instrument and has a number of properties that are potentially promising in the ultrafast properties of laser.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of entecavir combined with Biejiajian pills and its influence on TCM syndrome scores during the treatment of chronic hepatitis B with hepatic fibrosis and blood stasis syndrome by prospective, randomized and controlled study. Methods: Patients with chronic hepatitis B with hepatic fibrosis and blood stasis syndrome were selected as the research subjects and randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group. Entecavir plus Biejiajian pills or entecavir plus a simulant of Biejiajian pills were given for 48 weeks. The changes in liver stiffness measurement (LSM) and TCM syndrome scores before and after treatment were compared between the two groups to analyze the correlation. The data between groups were analyzed by t-test/Wilcoxon rank sum test or χ(2) test. Pearson correlation coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between TCM syndrome scores and LSM values. Results: After 48 weeks of treatment, the LSM values of the two groups were significantly lower than those of the baseline (P < 0.001), liver fibrosis was significantly improved, and the LSM values of the treatment group were lower than those of the control group [(8.67 ± 4.60) kPa and (10.13 ± 4.43) kPa, t = -2.011, P = 0.049]. After 48 weeks of treatment, the TCM syndrome scores of the two groups were significantly reduced compared with the baseline (P < 0.001), and the clinical symptoms were significantly relieved, and the total effective rates of the improvement of the TCM syndrome scores in the two groups were 74.19% and 72.97%, respectively, but the differences between the groups were not statistically significant (χ(2) = 0.013, P = 0.910). Correlation analysis showed that there was no obvious trend between TCM syndrome scores and LSM values. There were no serious adverse reactions associated with the drug during the observation period of this study. Conclusion: Based on antiviral treatment with entecavir, regardless of whether it is combined with the Biejiajian pill, it can effectively reduce the LSM value, improve liver fibrosis, reduce TCM syndrome scores, and alleviate symptoms in patients with chronic hepatitis B with liver fibrosis and blood stasis syndrome. Compared with entecavir alone, the combined Biejia pill has greater efficacy in improving liver fibrosis and a favorable safety profile, meriting its implementation and widespread application.

Abstract
Gestational weight gain outside of Institute of Medicine guidelines poses a risk to both the mother and her unborn child. Behavioral interventions such as Healthy Mom Zone (HMZ) that aim to regulate gestational weight gain require self-monitoring of energy intake, which is often significantly under-reported by participants. This paper describes the use of a control systems approach for energy intake estimation during pregnancy. It relies on an energy balance model that predicts gestational weight based on physical activity and energy intake, the latter treated as an unmeasured disturbance. Two control-based observer formulations relying on Internal Model Control and Model Predictive Control, respectively, are presented in this paper, first for a hypothetical participant, then on data collected from four HMZ participants. Results demonstrate the effectiveness of the method, with generally best results obtained when estimating energy intake over a weekly time period.

Abstract
Electromagnetic topological edge states typically are created in photonic systems with crystalline symmetry and these states emerge because of the topological feature of bulk Bloch bands in momentum space according to the bulk-edge correspondence principle. In this work, we demonstrate the existence of chiral topological electromagnetic edge states in Penrose-tiled photonic quasicrystals made of magneto-optical materials, without relying on the concept of bulk Bloch bands in momentum space. Despite the absence of bulk Bloch bands, which naturally defiles the conventional definition of topological invariants in momentum space characterizing these states, such as the Chern number, we show that some bandgaps in these photonic quasicrystals still could host unidirectional topological electromagnetic edge states immune to backscattering in both cylinders-in-air and holes-in-slab configurations. Employing a real-space topological invariant based on the Bott index, our calculations reveal that the bandgaps hosting these chiral topological edge states possess a nontrivial Bott index of ±1, depending on the direction of the external magnetic field. Our work opens the door to the study of topological states in photonic quasicrystals.

Abstract
Objective: To propose a new staging system for presacral recurrence of rectal cancer and explore the factors influencing radical resection of such recurrences based on this staging system. Methods: In this retrospective observational study, clinical data of 51 patients with presacral recurrence of rectal cancer who had undergone surgical treatment in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Peking University People's Hospital between January 2008 and September 2022 were collected. Inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) primary rectal cancer without distant metastasis that had been radically resected; (2) pre-sacral recurrence of rectal cancer confirmed by multi-disciplinary team assessment based on CT, MRI, positron emission tomography, physical examination, surgical exploration, and pathological examination of biopsy tissue in some cases; and (3) complete inpatient, outpatient and follow-up data. The patients were allocated to radical resection and non-radical resection groups according to postoperative pathological findings. The study included: (1) classification of pre-sacral recurrence of rectal cancer according to its anatomical characteristics as follows: Type I: no involvement of the sacrum; Type II: involvement of the low sacrum, but no other sites; Type III: involvement of the high sacrum, but no other sites; and Type IV: involvement of the sacrum and other sites. (2) Assessment of postoperative presacral recurrence, overall survival from surgery to recurrence, and duration of disease-free survival. (3) Analysis of factors affecting radical resection of pre-sacral recurrence of rectal cancer. Non-normally distributed measures are expressed as median (range). The Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison between groups. Results: The median follow-up was 25 (2-96) months with a 100% follow-up rate. The rate of metachronic distant metastasis was significantly lower in the radical resection than in the non-radical resection group (24.1% [7/29] vs. 54.5% [12/22], χ2=8.333, P=0.026). Postoperative disease-free survival was longer in the radical resection group (32.7 months [3.0-63.0] vs. 16.1 [1.0-41.0], Z=8.907, P=0.005). Overall survival was longer in the radical resection group (39.2 [3.0-66.0] months vs. 28.1 [1.0-52.0] months, Z=1.042, P=0.354). According to univariate analysis, age, sex, distance between the tumor and anal verge, primary tumor pT stage, and primary tumor grading were not associated with achieving R0 resection of presacral recurrences of rectal cancer (all P>0.05), whereas primary tumor pN stage, anatomic staging of presacral recurrence, and procedure for managing presacral recurrence were associated with rate of R0 resection (all P<0.05). According to multifactorial analysis, the pathological stage of the primary tumor pN1-2 (OR=3.506, 95% CI: 1.089-11.291, P=0.035), type of procedure (transabdominal resection: OR=29.250, 95% CI: 2.789 - 306.811, P=0.005; combined abdominal perineal resection: OR=26.000, 95% CI: 2.219-304.702, P=0.009), and anatomical stage of presacral recurrence (Type III: OR=16.000, 95% CI: 1.542 - 166.305, P = 0.020; type IV: OR= 36.667, 95% CI: 3.261 - 412.258, P = 0.004) were all independent risk factors for achieving radical resection of anterior sacral recurrence after rectal cancer surgery. Conclusion: Stage of presacral recurrences of rectal cancer is an independent predictor of achieving R0 resection. It is possible to predict whether radical resection can be achieved on the basis of the patient's medical history.

Abstract
The metal organic framework (MOF) has attracted more and more attention due to its unique morphology, functional linkers, and orderly network structure. Zeolitio imidazolata frameworks (ZIFs), which are formed by bivalent transition metals (Zn, Co, etc.) and nitrogen-containing heterocyclic imidazole or purine organic ligands, are a very attractive subclass of MOFs. ZIF-67, obtained by the nucleation growth of dimethylimidazole and Co 2p, has been developed as a precursor for porous nanostructured cobalt-based metal oxides. During material preparation we add rGO because it can be used as a basic element to construct macroscopic three-dimensional carbon structural materials, which self-assemble into a 3D network structure with ZIF-67 through simple van der Waals forces or hydrogen bonds, and some samples contain specific functional groups that are added to the precursor. In this paper, we employ liquid-phase synthesis to generate rGO-ZIF-67 and calcine it at the temperature of 350 °C to obtain rGO-Co3O4. Then we fabricate rGO-Co3O4 and rGO-ZIF-67 modulators based on microfibers and test their nonlinear optical absorption in 1.5 μm range. The modulation depths of rGO-Co3O4 and rGO-ZIF-67 are measured as 10.41% and 6.61%, respectively. By using microfiber-based rGO-Co3O4 modulator, we have obtained a conventional soliton and a soliton molecule in Er3+-doped fiber lasers. The conventional soliton has a pulse width of 793.4 fs and a spectral width of 3.3 at 1558.9 nm, respectively. The obtained soliton molecule has a spectral modulation period of 1.65 nm and temporal separation of 4.94 ps at 1563.2 nm. By employing a microfiber-based rGO-ZIF-67 modulator, we obtain conventional solitons with a spectral width of 1.9 nm at the central wavelength of 1529.8 nm. Our research may expand the MOF-based materials for ultrafast photonics, blazing a new path for fiber laser, optical communications, and optoelectronics, etc.

Abstract
Double perovskites (DPs) have been attracting attention in an assortment of optoelectronic applications, for they hold advantages such as high quantum efficiency, long carrier migration distance and strong linear and nonlinear absorptions. As specific kinds of perovskites (PVKs), DPs are gifted with orthorhombic crystal structures which provide rich conversion combinations and broaden the space for research and application. However, few works have been reported about DPs in ultrafast photonics applications. In this article, a DP with chemical formula of Ba2LaTaO6 (BLT) was successfully synthesized by high-temperature solid phase method. The microstructures and morphologies were observed, and the linear and nonlinear absorption were characterized. By first using BLT as a novel saturable absorber in both normal and anomalous dispersion region fiber lasers, dual-wavelength soliton and dissipative soliton were successfully operated at C-band. This study affirms BLT’s nonlinear optical properties, lays the foundation for optical research on BLT, and meanwhile provides a meaningful reference for future development of pulsed lasers based on DPs.

Abstract
The toxicity data of chemicals and drugs increases rapidly, while the animal experimental-based tests method could not meet the current demand of health risk assessment. The high-throughput screening techniques based on in vitro alternative models, integrating with computational methods and information technology to establish toxicity tests strategy promises to address this problem. High-content screening (HCS) technology uses automated microscopy and quantitative image platforms to perform multi-parameter and high-throughput phenotypic analysis via a visualization and quantification manner, and to quickly and effectively assess toxicity and prioritization of chemicals, which promotes the development of in vitro toxicity tests and computational toxicology. HCS technology has been included as an important tool for Toxicity Testing in the 21st Century (Tox21) and chemical risk prioritization. Its applications have been widely utilized in the research field of toxicity tests and chemical toxicity mechanisms. In this review, we describe the development of HCS technology, technical points, toxicological applications, and the future directions and challenges of HCS, so as to provide references for the toxicity testing technology and risk assessment methodology.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the methylated genes in burn scar tissue by weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), and to discover molecular markers and therapeutic targets of scar formation. Methods: An observational research method was used. Datasets were downloaded from the National Center for Biotechnology Information Gene Expression Omnibus Database of America. The GSE136906 (n=6) and GSE137134 (n=6) datasets in the same batch were screened out for mRNA sequencing and methylation sequencing respectively, and the dataset GSE108110 (n=9) was incorporated into support vector machine and modeling analysis. The Limma software package was used to identify the differentially expressed genes and differentially methylated genes between scar tissue after burn and normal tissue. WGCNA was used to select the module with strong correlation with clinical features of scar tissue and large number of genes. Functional enrichment analysis of the genes in the module was performed to find genes with abnormal methylation. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to judge diagnostic efficacy of genes with abnormal methylation for scar, and support vector machine (SVM) was used to verify. Results: A total of 10 modules were identified, and the brown module with large number of genes was highly correlated to burn scar tissue formation. The genes in the brown module were mainly concentrated in "regulation of androgen receptor signaling pathway", "cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction", "positive regulation of insulin secretion", and so on. The model showed 35 genes with abnormal methylation status. The ROC curve (area under the curve>0.9) and SVM modeling (accuracy=93.3%) indicated that CCR2, LMO7, STEAP4, NNAT, and TCF7L2 genes had good diagnostic performance for scar. Conclusions: CCR2, LMO7, STEAP4, NNAT, and TCF7L2 can be used as potential targets for burn scar treatment.

Abstract
Objective: Explore the feasibility of fecal gene methylation for screening gastric cancer and its relationship with clinical characteristics of gastric cancer patients. Methods: One hundred and fifty-six stool samples of patients in general surgery or digestive department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from August 2018 to December 2019 were collected, detailed clinical information of gastric cancer patients were recorded. All patients and normal controls were divided into two sets including train sets (n=52)and test sets (n=104). Stool DNA was extracted for detection of methylation (SDC2, SFRP2, RASSF2 and TERT). Meanwhile, hemoglobin in stool samples were detected by immunoassays. A logistic regression model was built to analyze the sensitivity and specificity of single fecal DNA biomarker in detecting gastric cancer by Ct values of each stool-based DNA biomarker; Based on Akaike information criterion (AIC), the gastric cancer early screening model was constructed with each biomarker and the combinations, and evaluate the performance of the model in the test sets. Results: The accuracy of each stool biomarkers and their ranks were showed as SDC2(71.2%)>TERT(67.3%)=RASSF2(67.3%)>Hb(63.5%)>SFRP2(61.5%). By stepwise regression analysis, a combination composed of the methylation of SDC2 and TERT, fecal occult blood testing was well-behaved in the screening of gastric cancer.This combination showed a sensitivity of 66.7% for gastric cancer in train sets and test sets at the specificity of 78.9%. In different stages and parts of gastric cancer samples, the combination of this marker has the highest sensitivity in stage I gastric cancer(78.6%) and gastric body cancer(75.0%). Conclusion: The methylation of SDC2, SFRP2, TERT, RASSF2 has higher accuracy rate in the screening of gastric cancer, which is a potential fecal biomarker of gastric cancer.

Abstract
A hollow biconical fiber is proposed and experimentally demonstrated for vibration sensing. It is fabricated by creating an air micro-cavity in single-mode fiber, followed by tapering it. Experimental results show that the device is highly sensitive to bending with a sensitivity of 21.30 dB/m−1. When it is exposed to vibration, its transmission loss is modulated periodically, then based on the measured transmission, the vibration frequency can be demodulated accurately. The acoustic vibration testing results show that the proposed device can detect and demodulate the exciting acoustic frequency accurately and distinguish its sound intensity, and the maximum signal to noise ratio (SNR) achieves up to 59 dB. Moreover, cantilever beam testing proves its performance reliable. Additionally, the sensing head has the advantages of a lightweight, compact size (with a total length of less than 250 μm), and insensitivity of temperature. All these features indicate the proposed sensor has a promising potential in the engineering field.

Abstract
Objective: Presacral recurrence of rectal cancer have altered the adjacent structures of original pelvic organs due to the previous radical surgery of rectal cancer, and the boundary between recurrent tumor tissues and pelvic internal structures is not clear. Conventional CT examination has poor soft tissue resolution, which makes it difficult to accurately delineate the target area of radiotherapy. This study aimed to explore the guiding role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in delineating the target area of presacral recurrence after radical resection of rectal cancer. Methods: A descriptive case series research method was adopted. From May 2014 to May 2019, the clinical data of 30 patients with presacral recurrence after radical resection of rectal cancer were collected, who were admitted to Peking University People's Hospital, confirmed by pathology or discussed by multidisciplinary team (MDT), with complete MRI, CT and case information. According to the gross tumor volume (GTV) with presacral recurrence outlined in CT and MRI images, including presacral recurrent lesions (GTVT) and metastatic lymph nodes (GTVN), the GTV volume was calculated, and the tumor boundary and diameter were measured. The differences between MRI and CT were compared. Results: The volume of GTVT-CT was larger than that of GTVT-MR in all the 30 patients. The median volume of GTVT-CT was 67.86 (range 5.12-234.10) cm(3), which was significantly larger than 43.02 (range 3.42-142.50) cm(3) of GTVT-MR with statistically significant difference (Z=-4.288, P<0.001). The mean volume of GTVN outlined by CT and MRI was (0.43±0.11) cm(3) and (0.40±0.10) cm(3) respectively without statistically significant difference (t=1.550, P=0.132). The mean values of boundary and radial line of the presacral lesions on CT images were all longer than those on MRI images. The vertical diameter of GTVT on CT and MRI images was (6.66±2.92) cm and (5.17±2.40) cm (t=5.466, P<0.001); the anterior boundary was (3.24±2.51) cm and (2.69±2.48) cm (t=4.685, P<0.001); the anteroposterior diameter was (4.92±2.02) cm and (4.04±1.57) cm (t=6.210, P<0.001); the left boundary was (3.05±1.00) cm and (2.64±0.78) cm (t=2.561, P=0.016); the right boundary was 2.66 (0.00-4.23) cm and 1.82 (-1.10-3.59) cm (Z=-3.950, P<0.001); the transverse diameter was (5.01±1.78) cm and (3.82±1.29) cm (t=4.648, P<0.001), respectively, whose differences were all statistically significant. MRI was superior to CT in judging the involvement of anterior organs, such as intestine, prostate, bladder and the posterior sacrum. Fifteen patients received radiotherapy according to the target area guided by MRI and 10 patients obtained clinical symptom relief. Conclusion: Compared with CT, the GTV of postoperative presacral recurrence of rectal cancer outlined in MRI images is smaller, and MRI can determine the boundary between tumor and surrounding normal tissues more precisely, so it can show the invasion range of tumor more accurately and guide the accurate implementation of radiotherapy.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features and prognostic factors in patients with presacral recurrent rectal cancer (PRRC). Methods: PRRC was defined as recurrence of rectal cancer after radical surgery involving posteriorly the presacral soft tissue, the sacrum/coccyx, and/or sacral nerve root. The diagnosis is confirmed with clinical symptoms (pain of pelvis/back/lower limb, bloody stools, increased frequency of defecation, and abnormal secretions), physical examination of perineal or pelvic masses, radiological findings, colonoscopy with histopathological biopsy, and the evaluation by multi-disciplinary team (MDT). Inclusion criteria: (1) primary rectal cancer undergoing radical surgery without distant metastasis; (2) PRRC was diagnosed; (3) complete inpatient, outpatient and follow-up data. According to the above criteria, clinical data of 72 patients with PRRC in Peking University People's Hospital from January 2008 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinicopathological features and follow-up data were summarized. Cox proportional hazard models was used to analyze the prognostic factors of PRRC. Results: Among 72 patients, 45 were male and 27 were female with a male-to-female ratio of 1.7:1.0. The median age at recurrence was 58 (34 to 83) years and the median interval from surgery to recurrence was 2.0 (0.2 to 17.0) years. The main symptom was pain in 48.6% (35/72) of patients. In addition, gastrointestinal symptoms were found in 25.0% (18/72) of patients. The presacral recurrent sites were presacral fascia in 36 (50.0%) patients, lower sacrum (S3~S5 or coccyx) in 25 (34.7%) patients, and higher sacrum (S1~S2) in 11 (15.3%) patients. Forty-seven (65.3%) patients underwent radical surgery (abdominal resection, abdominoperineal resection, sacrectomy, abdominosacral resection), 12 (16.7%) underwent non-radical surgery (colostomy, cytoreductive surgery), and 13 (18.1%) did not undergo any surgery but only receive palliative chemoradiotherapy and nutritional support treatment. Thirty-three (45.8%) patients received radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy (oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil, capecitabine, irinotecan, etc.). All the patients received follow-up, and the median follow-up time was 19 (2 to 72) months. The median overall survival time was 14 (1 to 65) months. The 1- and 3-year overall survival rates were 67.1% and 32.0%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that age at recurrence (P=0.031) and radical resection (P<0.001) were associated with prognosis. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that radical resection was independent factor of good prognosis (RR=0.140, 95%CI: 0.061-0.322, P<0.001). Conclusions: Patients tend to develop presacral recurrent rectal cancer within 2 years after primary surgery. The main symptom is pain. Patients undergoing radical resection have a relatively good prognosis.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the efficacy and prognosis of three surgical methods for presacral recurrent rectal cancer (PRRC). Methods: A retrospective cohort study was carried out. Case inclusion criteria: (1) primary rectal cancer without distant metastasis and undergoing radical surgery; (2) patients undergoing radical surgery after the diagnosis of PRRC; (3) complete inpatient, outpatient and follow-up data. Clinical data of 47 patients meeting the above criteria who underwent operation at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, The Peking University People's Hospital from January 2008 to December 2017 were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively. Of the 47 patients, 31 were male and 16 were female; the mean age was 57 years old; 9 (19.1%) were low differentiation or signet ring cell carcinoma, 38 (80.9%) were medium differentiation; 19 (40.4%) received neoadjuvant therapy. According to operative procedure, 22 patients were in the abdominal/abdominoperineal resection group, 15 in the sacrectomy group and 10 in the abdominosacral resection group. The operative data, postoperative data and prognosis were compared among the three groups. Survival curve was conducted using the Kaplan-Meier method, and log-rank test was used to compare survival difference among three groups. Results: There were no significant differences in baseline data among three groups (all P>0.05). All the 47 patients completed the radical resection successfully. The mean operation time was (4.7±2.1) hours, the median intraoperative blood loss was 600 ml, and the median postoperative hospitalization time was 17 days. Fifteen cases (31.9%) had perioperative complications, of which 3 cases were grade III-IV. There was no perioperative death. The mean operative time was (7.4±1.6) hours in the abdominosacral resection group, (4.9±1.6) hours in the abdominal/abdominoperineal resection group, and (3.0±1.1) hours in the sacroectomy group, with a significant difference (F=25.071, P<0.001). There were no significant differences in intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospitalization days and perioperative complications among the three groups (all P>0.05). The median follow-up period of all the patients was 24 months, 12 cases (25.5%) developed postoperative dysfunction. The incidence of postoperative dysfunction in the abdominosacral resection group was 5/10, which was higher than 4/15 in the sacrectomy group and 3/22 (13.6%) in the abdominoperineal resection group with statistically significant difference (χ(2)=9.307, P=0.010). The 1-year and 3-year overall survival rates were 86.1% and 40.2% respectively. The 1-year overall survival rates were 86.0%, 86.7% and 83.3%, and the 3-year overall survival rates were 33.2%, 40.0% and 62.5% in the abdominal/abdominoperineal resection group, sacrectomy group and abdominosacral resection group, respectively, whose difference was not statistically significant (χ(2)=0.222, P=0.895). Conclusions: Abdominal/abdominoperineal resection, sacrectomy and abdominosacral resection are all effective for PRRC. Intraoperative function protection should be concerned for patients undergoing abdominosacral resection.

Abstract
Black arsenic phosphorus (b-AsP), as one kind of novel two-dimensional (2D) materials, bridges the band gap between black phosphorus and graphene. Thanks to its great advantages, including high carrier mobility, excellent in-plane anisotropy, and broad tunability band gap, b-AsP has aroused great interest in fields of photonics and photoelectronics. In this paper, ultrathin 2D b-AsP nanomaterials were fabricated by the liquid-phase exfoliation method, and their strong broadband linear and nonlinear absorptions were characterized by ultraviolet-visible-infrared and Z-scan technology. The experimental determination of the nonlinear absorption coefficient and low saturation intensity of b-AsP were -0.23 cm/GW and 3.336 GW/cm2, respectively. Based on density functional theory, the partial charge density and band structure at the conduction band minimum and valence band maximum were calculated, which further proves the excellent optical properties of 2D b-AsP. By first using 2D b-AsP as a novel saturable absorber in both erbium-doped and thulium-doped fiber lasers, mode-locked soliton pulses can stably operate at 1.5 and 2 μm. The laser pulses generated by 2D b-AsP possess higher stability to resist self-splitting than those generated by other 2D material-based mode-lockers. These experimental results highlight that 2D b-AsP has great application potential as a novel optical material in ultrafast photonics from near- to mid-infrared regimes.

Abstract
Background Patient preferences are integral to person-centred care, but preference stability is poorly understood in older people, who may experience fluctuant illness trajectories with episodes of acute illness. We aimed to describe, and explore influences on the stability of care preferences in frail older people following recent acute illness. Methods Mixed-methods prospective cohort study with dominant qualitative component, parallel data collection and six-month follow up. Study population: age ≥ 65, Rockwood Clinical Frailty score ≥ 5, recent acute illness requiring acute assessment/hospitalisation. Participants rated the importance of six preferences (to extend life, improve quality of life, remain independent, be comfortable, support ‘those close to me’, and stay out of hospital) at baseline, 12 and 24 weeks using a 0–4 scale, and ranked the most important. A maximum-variation sub-sample additionally contributed serial in-depth qualitative interviews. We described preference stability using frequencies and proportions, and undertook thematic analysis to explore influences on preference stability. Results 90/192 (45%) of potential participants consented. 82/90 (91%) answered the baseline questionnaire; median age 84, 63% female. Seventeen undertook qualitative interviews. Most participants consistently rated five of the six preferences as important (range 68–89%). ‘Extend life’ was rated important by fewer participants (32–43%). Importance ratings were stable in 61–86% of cases. The preference ranked most important was unstable in 82% of participants. Preference stability was supported by five influences: the presence of family support; both positive or negative care experiences; preferences being concordant with underlying values; where there was slowness of recovery from illness; and when preferences linked to long term goals. Preference change was related to changes in health awareness, or life events; if preferences were specific to a particular context, or multiple concurrent preferences existed, these were also more liable to change. Conclusions Preferences were largely stable following acute illness. Stability was reinforced by care experiences and the presence of family support. Where preferences were unstable, this usually related to changing health awareness. Consideration of these influences during preference elicitation or advance care planning will support delivery of responsive care to meet preferences. Obtaining longer-term data across diverse ethnic groups is needed in future research.

Abstract
Bismuthene, as a novel two-dimensional (2D) material, has attracted extensive attention because of its outstanding properties including narrow band gap, stability at room temperature, nonlinear optical transmission, and so on. In this paper, the physical characteristic, nonlinear optical response, and ultrafast photonics application of few-layer bismuthene are studied experimentally. By the balanced twin-detector measurement method, the saturable absorption property of few-layer bismuthene with a modulation depth of 2.5% and saturable intensity of 110 MW/cm2 at the optical communication band (C-band) is illustrated. Dependent on a few-layer bismuthene saturable absorber, an all-fiber ultrashort pulse laser is fabricated and the proposed fiber laser can operate with coexistence of harmonic mode-locking and dual-wavelength mode-locking. The different laser generations of harmonic and dual wavelength depend on the saturable absorption of few-layer bismuthene, the suitable birefringence and nonlinearity strength in the laser cavity. The results suggest that the ultrashort pulse laser obtained based on few-layer bismuthene could be applied to the field of pump-probe experiments and tunable terahertz radiation generation potentially.

Abstract
Asymmetric mandibular prognathism is a clinically common skeletal dentomaxillofacial deformity. Unilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (USSRO) is an effective alternative procedure to bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSRO) for some patients. However, the biomechanical effect of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) of USSRO has not been fully studied. This study aims to evaluate the stress distribution changes in the TMJ of asymmetric mandibular prognathism treated with BSSRO/USSRO, to validate the clinical feasibility of USSRO. Nineteen patients with mandibular prognathism patients who were treated with BSSRO (n=12) and USSRO (n=7) had preoperative and postoperative computed tomographic scanning. Preoperative and postoperative 3-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA) of functional TMJ movements were made on one BSSRO patient and one USSRO patient. In all patients, the ANB angle and mandibular deviation were significantly improved postoperatively. There was no significant difference in the postoperative ANB angle and mandibular deviation between the BSSRO group and the USSRO group. In two preoperative FEA models, the maximum stresses of non-deviation side TMJ structures were greater than the deviation side during functional movements. The unbalanced stress distribution was corrected postoperatively in both BSSRO/USSRO FE models. Both BSSRO/USSRO can improve the ANB angle and mandibular deviation. The bilateral TMJ structure in patients with asymmetric mandibular prognathism had unbalanced stress, which could be significantly improved with the USSRO as effectively as BSSRO.

Abstract
Bismuthene with a similar layered lattice structure belonging to group VA is regarded as a kind of novel two-dimensional material and has excellent properties such as small indirect bandgap (less than 1 eV) and unique electronic properties, etc. Based on the large magnitude of third-order nonlinear susceptibility and high carrier motility, bismuthene can be considered as a promising material for various optoelectronics, electronics, and nonlinear optics. Compared with the mass research about the few-layer bismuthene, we focus on the characteristics and nonlinear optical properties of bismuthene nanosheets in this work. Bismuthene nanosheets present high modulation depth over 7.7%. The sheet-structured bismuthene as saturable absorbers (SAs) is a technically important issue in laser technology. Here, for the first time, it is demonstrated that bismuthene nanosheets can be served as an SA to readily generate a harmonic dual-wavelength mode-locked picosecond pulse in a highly nonlinear fiber laser. A harmonic mode-locked pulse order from 1st to 20th is obtained at the pump power from 43.2 to 201.5 mW. When the pump power is greater than 408 mW, a 52th harmonic dual-wavelength pulse (corresponding to the repetition of 208 MHz) has been obtained. This study demonstrates the bismuthene saturable absorption is an intrinsic property independent from the structural dimension. Our work attests the promise of bismuthene in optical communication, optical detecting, sensor systems, and material processing, etc.

Abstract
Bismuthene, as a new two-dimensional material made up of diazo metal elements, has drawn massive attention for its unique electronic, mechanical, quantum, and nonlinear optical properties. In recent years, researchers have increasingly turned their attention to the ultrafast photonics fields based on bismuthene. However, the internal ultrashort pulse dynamics has seldom been explored yet. In this work, the nonlinear optical properties of bismuthene nanosheets have been studied and applied in a passively mode-locked fiber laser. The saturation intensity and modulation depth of a saturable absorber (SA) device are about 2.4 MW/cm2 and 1%, respectively. Thanks to the narrow band gap of bismuthene and tapered fiber structure, a special kind of noise-like multipulses has been obtained. The evolution of the pulsed laser is also studied. This proposed pulsed fiber laser based on a bismuthene SA device is well suitable for some applications such as material processing, optical logics, and so forth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the role of miR-29a in regulating the differentiation mesenchymal stem cells into osteoblasts. MATERIALS AND METHODS For the first step, the changes of expression of miR-29a during the process of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) differentiation into osteoblast were detected. Then, we infected the MSCs with mimics or inhibitors of miR-29a to explore the roles of miR-29a in the differentiation. Further, the prediction and verification of the possible target genes of miR-29a were achieved by bioinformatics analysis and luciferase reporter assay. RESULTS MiR-29a was up-regulated during the process of MSCs differentiation into osteoblasts. Overexpression or inhibition of miR-29a using mimics or inhibitors had no significant effect on cell proliferation. Furthermore, the differentiation was enhanced when miR-29a was artificially overexpressed in vitro, whereas silencing of miR-29a attenuated this process. It was evidenced by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, matrix mineralization, and increased expression of osteoblast-specific genes. Furthermore, we determined that the gene HDAC4 might be a direct target of miR-29a. CONCLUSIONS In the current study, miR-29a promotes osteogenesis via suppressing HDAC4, indicating that targeting miR-29a may be feasible in the management of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Nanoparticle materials have many potential applications in the area of electronics and optoelectronics due to their unique and versatile properties. In particular, lead sulfide nanoparticles (PbS NPs) have shown excellent ultrafast photonics and can be applied to communication systems because of their low bandgap, high thermal damage threshold and stability. The wavelength division multiplexor (WDM) technique is vital to fiber optical communication, which allows the transmission of many different-wavelength signals in one fiber cable. However, PbS NPs for multi-wavelength pulse generation has not been reported until now. In this work, PbS NPs have been investigated and successfully applied in an Er-doped fiber laser as a saturable absorber (SA) to generate a dual-wavelength short pulse for the first time. A picosecond-level ultrashort pulse at center wavelengths of 1545 and 1585 nm can be achieved simultaneously or respectively. It is worth mentioning that the two wavelengths are separated up to 40 nm, which can significantly expand the optical communication capacity. The result suggests that PbS NPs as smart nonlinear optical components have wide applications in optical communications, short-pulse lasers, and even high-performance photodectors.

Abstract
Gold nanorods (GNRs) has been investigated in the field of chemistry, optoelectronics, and medicine for their tenability, compatibility, electromagnetics, and excellent photonics properties. Especially, GNRs, used to generate ultrashort pulse, have been studied recently. However, multiple pulses evolution based on GNRs needs to be further explored. In this article, GNRs are synthesized by seed-mediated growth method, characterized systematically and been chosen as saturable absorber (SA) to apply in ultrafast photonics. The GNRs SA presents a saturable intensity of 266 MW/cm2, modulation depth of 0.6%, and non-saturable loss of 51%. Furthermore, a passively mode-locked erbium-doped fiber laser based on GNRs SA with femtosecond pulse is demonstrated. Thanks to the excellent properties of GNRs, by adjusting the cavity polarization direction with the proposed GNRs SA, soliton molecules operation with spectrum modulation period of 3.3 nm and pulse modulation interval of 2.238 ps is directly obtained. For the most important, 9th-order harmonic soliton molecules have been generated in the laser cavity for the first time. It is demonstrated that GNRs can be a novel type of non-linear optical (NLO) device and have potential applications in the field of ultrafast photonics.

Abstract
Genomic prediction has been widely utilized to estimate genomic breeding values (GEBVs) in farm animals. In this study, we conducted genomic prediction for 20 economically important traits including growth, carcass and meat quality traits in Chinese Simmental beef cattle. Five approaches (GBLUP, BayesA, BayesB, BayesCπ and BayesR) were used to estimate the genomic breeding values. The predictive accuracies ranged from 0.159 (lean meat percentage estimated by BayesCπ) to 0.518 (striploin weight estimated by BayesR). Moreover, we found that the average predictive accuracies across 20 traits were 0.361, 0.361, 0.367, 0.367 and 0.378, and the averaged regression coefficients were 0.89, 0.86, 0.89, 0.94 and 0.95 for GBLUP, BayesA, BayesB, BayesCπ and BayesR respectively. The genomic prediction accuracies were mostly moderate and high for growth and carcass traits, whereas meat quality traits showed relatively low accuracies. We concluded that Bayesian regression approaches, especially for BayesR and BayesCπ, were slightly superior to GBLUP for most traits. Increasing with the sizes of reference population, these two approaches are feasible for future application of genomic selection in Chinese beef cattle.

Abstract
2D metal chalcogenide materials have received enormous attention due to their extraordinary bio-chemical, electronic, magnetic, thermal and optical properties. Compared with the typical two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and topological insulators, cuprous sulfide (Cu2S) has very different two-dimensional lattice structures, along with excellent electro-catalysis and high conductivity. However, the nonlinear optical properties of Cu2S have never been studied until now. Here, the nonlinear photonics characteristics of Cu2S and its application in ultrafast lasers have been systematically studied for the first time. Through optical deposition of Cu2S nanosheets on a tapered fiber, the nonlinear optical properties of Cu2S nanosheets are measured through the interaction with the evanescent field. The results indicate that superior nonlinear saturable absorption properties with a modulation depth of 0.51% are achieved. An erbium-doped fiber (EDF) laser is constructed to verify the performance of the Cu2S saturable absorber (SA). The results show that an output pulse with 8.06 MHz repetition rate, 1.04 ps pulse duration, 1530.4 nm central wavelength and 3.1 nm spectral width without an obvious Kelly sideband is obtained. Considering the diversity of the metal chalcogenide family, various engineering applications may be developed from the nonlinear saturable absorption characteristics of Cu2S, including optical fiber communication/sensing, precision optical metrology, material processing and nonlinear optics.

Abstract
Bismuthene, a mono-elemental two-dimensional material with a novel kind of few-layer structure purely consisting of bismuth, has been predicted to have a prominent optical response and enhanced stability in theory. In this paper, few-layer bismuthene is employed as the saturable absorber. The mode-locker is fabricated by dropping bismuthene on a microfiber in a passively mode-locked, Er-doped fiber laser. The single pulse can be obtained at 122.1 mW, with 621.5 fs pulse duration at 1557.5 nm central wavelength, 10.35 nm spectral width and fundamental repetition of 22.74 MHz. Thanks to the outstanding nonlinear effect and semimetal of the bismuthene, dual-pulses, octonary-pulses and fourteen-pulses soliton molecules with tightly and loosely temporal separation can be achieved for the first time, to the best of our knowledge. The preceding indicates that bismuthene will have wide potential in many applications, such as optical fiber communications, optical logical gate, and laser materials processing, etc.

Abstract
Bismuthene has attracted a great deal of attention because of its unique electronic and optical properties. However, there are few reported applications of bismuthene in nonlinear optical applications. In this research, a dissipative soliton ytterbium-doped mode-locked fiber laser at 1 μm regime with a bismuthene saturable absorber (SA) by using evanescent field interaction for the first time is demonstrated. The nonlinear optical absorption of microfiber-based bismuthene SA is shown experimentally by using a homemade ultrafast fiber laser, whose saturation intensity and modulation depth are about 13 MW cm-2 and 2.2%, respectively. Relying on the excellent nonlinear optical property of the bismuthene SA, the typical dissipative solitons with a repetition rate of 21.74 MHz are generated at a center wavelength of 1034.4 nm. The time-bandwidth product of the pulse is about 23.07 with a pulse width of 30.25 ps. The results demonstrate that bismuthene is a good candidate for application in a 1 μm wave-breaking-free mode-locked fiber laser and nonlinear photonic components.

Abstract
The kinetics of serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) during the natural history of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection has been studied, but the factors affecting them remain unclear. We aimed to investigate the factors affecting HBsAg titres, using data from multicentre, large-sized clinical trials in China. The baseline data of 1795 patients in 3 multicentre trials were studied, and the patients were classified into 3 groups: hepatitis B early antigen (HBeAg)-positive chronic HBV infection (n = 588), HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B (n = 596), and HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B (n = 611). HBsAg titres in the different phases were compared, and multiple linear progression analyses were performed to investigate the implicated factors. HBsAg titres varied significantly in different phases (P = .000), with the highest (4.60 log10 IU/mL [10%-90% confidence interval: 3.52 log10 IU/mL-4.99 log10 IU/mL]) in patients with HBeAg-positive chronic HBV infection. In all phases, age and HBV DNA were correlated with serum HBsAg level. In HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B patients, a negative correlation between HBsAg titres and fibrosis stage was observed. Alanine amonitransferase or necroinflammatory activity was also correlated with HBsAg titres in HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B patients. In conclusion, decreased HBsAg titres may be associated with advancing fibrosis in HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B patients or increased necroinflammation in those with HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B. Our findings may help clinicians better understand the kinetics of HBsAg and provide useful insights into the management of this disease.

Abstract
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a powerful tool to detect in vitro antibody-antigen interactions. To date, however, AFM-measured antibody-antigen interactions have yet to be exploited to predict in vivo tumor specificity of antibody-directed nanomedicines. In this study, we have utilized AFM to directly measure the biomechanical interaction between live triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells and an antibody against ICAM1, a recently identified TNBC target. For the first time, we provide proof-of-principle evidence that in vitro TNBC cell-ICAM1 antibody binding force measured by AFM on live cells more precisely correlates with in vivo tumor accumulation and therapeutic efficacy of ICAM1 antibody-directed liposomes than ICAM1 gene and surface protein overexpression levels. These studies demonstrate that live cell-antibody binding force measurements may be used as a novel in vitro metric for predicting the in vivo tumor recognition of antibody-directed nanomedicines.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the safety and efficacy of the Weitan Waifu patch on the postsurgical gastroparesis syndrome (PGS) of gastrointestinal cancer. Methods: The multi-center, double-blind, randomized controlled trial was conducted with superiority design. Patients with PGS of gastrointestinal cancer diagnosed in 4 AAA hospitals and the abdominal symptom manifested as cold syndrome by Chinese local syndrome differentiation were recruited. These patients were randomly divided into two groups according to 1∶1 proportion. Placebo or Weitan Waifu patch was applied in control group or intervention group, respectively, based on the basic treatments, including nutrition support, gastrointestinal decompression, promoting gastric dynamics medicine.Two acupuncture points (Zhongwan and Shenque) were stuck with placebo in control group or patch in treatment group. The intervention course was 14 days or reached the effective standard. Results: From July 15, 2013 to Jun 3, 2015, 128 participants were recruited and 120 eligible cases were included in the full analysis set (FAS), and 60 cases in each group. 88 cases were included in the per-protocol set (PPS), including 45 cases in the treatment group and 43 cases in the control group. In the FAS, the clinical effective rate in the treatment group was 68.3%, significantly superior than 41.7% of the control group (P=0.003). The medium time of effective therapy in the treatment group was 8 days, significantly shorter than 10 days in the control group (P=0.017). In the FAS, 3 adverse events occurred in the treatment group, including mild to moderate decrustation, pruritus and nausea. The incidence rate of adverse events was 5.0% (3/60) and these symptoms were spontaneously remitted after drug withdrawal. No severe adverse events were observed in the control group. There was no significant difference between these two groups (P=0.244). Conclusion: Weitan Waifu patch is a safely and effectively therapeutic method for patients with PGS (cold syndrome) of gastroenterological cancer. Trial registration: International Standard Randomized Controlled Trial Number Register, ISRCTN18291857.

Abstract
Undoped and C-doped (C: Mg2+, Ni2+, Mn2+, Co2+, Cu2+, Cr3+) ZnO nanorods were synthesized by a hydrothermal method at temperatures as low as 60 °C. The effect of doping on the morphology of the ZnO nanorods was visualized by taking their cross section and top SEM images. The results show that the size of nanorods was increased in both height and diameter by cation doping. The crystallinity change of the ZnO nanorods due to each doping element was thoroughly investigated by an x-ray diffraction (XRD). The XRD patterns show that the wurtzite crystal structure of ZnO nanorods was maintained after cation addition. The optical Raman-active modes of undoped and cation-doped nanorods were measured with a micro-Raman setup at room temperature. The surface chemistry of samples was investigated by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. Finally, the effect of each cation dopant on band-gap shift of the ZnO nanorods was investigated by a photoluminescence setup at room temperature. Although the amount of dopants (Mg2+, Ni2+, and Co2+) was smaller than the amount of Mn2+, Cu2+, and Cr3+ in the nanorods, their effect on the band structure of the ZnO nanorods was profound. The highest band-gap shift was achieved for a Co-doped sample, and the best crystal orientation was for Mn-doped ZnO nanorods. Our results can be used as a comprehensive reference for engineering of the morphological, structural and optical properties of cation-doped ZnO nanorods by using a low-temperature synthesis as an economical mass-production approach.
