Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to examine the bidirectional associations between dietary diversity and clinical depressive symptoms in adult women, and influencing factors of clinical depressive symptoms. METHODS This longitudinal study included a total of 22,385 participants, each of whom underwent at least two data collections. We used convenience sampling to recruit women from a health management center of a general hospital in southern China from April 2015 to December 2021. They completed an online self-reported health questionnaire, which included demographic characteristics, lifestyle information, the Dietary Diversity Scale (DDS), and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. RESULTS New-onset depressive symptoms and low dietary diversity were observed in this study among 1285 and 3223 participants, respectively. Negative associations were observed between baseline low dietary diversity and new-onset depressive symptoms (P < 0.05) and between baseline depressive symptoms and low dietary diversity (P < 0.001). Cross-lagged panel analysis indicated that dietary diversity negatively and prospectively predicted depressive symptoms, but vice versa (P < 0.05). Strong evidence of a nonlinear association between DDS scores and incident depressive symptoms was found (P nonlinear < 0.05) regardless of whether the variables were adjusted. Besides, age, menarche age, physical activity, sleep duration, longer sedentary behavior and other lifestyle factors were influencing factors of depressive symptoms (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The present study identified bidirectional associations between dietary diversity and depressive symptoms, and the associations were found to have a non-linear pattern. Adherence to dietary diversity and a healthy lifestyle could be effective non-pharmacological preventive measures to reduce the incidence of depressive symptoms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Depressive symptoms have a considerable negative impact on mental health. This study aimed to understand the relationship between the protein-enriched and anti-inflammatory dietary index scores, modified healthy lifestyle index scores (Modified HLIS), and depressive symptoms. METHODS This study used convenience sampling to conduct a single-center cross-sectional survey. From January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2020, a total of 287,945 Chinese adults from a health management center of a general hospital completed an online self-reported health questionnaire, which included demographic characteristics, the Dietary Diversity Scale, the Modified Healthy Lifestyle Index Scores and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. RESULTS The higher anti-inflammatory dietary index scores (POR = 0.87; 95 % CI: 0.86-0.87; p < 0.001), moderate modified healthy lifestyle index scores (POR = 0.76; 95 % CI: 0.75-0.78; p < 0.001) and sufficient modified healthy lifestyle index scores (POR = 0.53; 95 % CI: 0.52-0.54; p < 0.001) were negatively associated with depressive symptoms, while the higher protein-enriched dietary index scores (POR = 1.01; 95 % CI: 1.01-1.02; p < 0.001) was positively correlated with depressive symptoms. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that protein-enriched and anti-inflammatory dietary index scores, and multiple healthy lifestyles are associated depressive symptoms in adults.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between dietary habits and metabolic syndrome (MetS) has not been well documented, due to the complexity and individualization of dietary culture in the Chinese population. OBJECTIVE To construct a composite score from various bad dietary habits and to evaluate their comprehensive association with the prevalence of MetS and its components among Chinese men and women across various age groups. SETTING Serial cross-sectional studies. METHODS Twenty-three dietary habits were assessed through face-to-face interviews with 98,838 males and 83,099 females in health check-up programs from 2015 to 2021, among which eighteen bad dietary habits were observed to be associated independently with total MetS. The total score of bad dietary habits was composed of four categories via variable clustering analysis, including irregular dietary habits, unhealthy dietary flavors, unbalanced dietary structure, and high-fat diet. The 2016 Chinese guideline for the management of dyslipidemia in adults was used to define MetS. RESULTS Men had a higher score of bad dietary habits than women (9.63 ± 3.11 vs. 8.37 ± 3.23), which decreased significantly with increasing age in both males and females (Pinteraction<0.01). The prevalence of total MetS increased significantly with the cumulative score of bad dietary habits in both males (highest quintile vs. lowest quintile: OR, 1.90; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.80-2.00; Plinear<0.01) and females (OR, 2.23; 95% CI, 2.02-2.46; Plinear<0.01) after adjusted for age, education, smoking status, alcohol consumption, and physical activities. These linear trends were also observed for each MetS component (all Plinear<0.01). The role of irregular dietary habits and high-fat diet on MetS prevalence are much higher in males than in females, while unhealthy dietary flavors and unbalanced dietary structure had a greater influence on females. CONCLUSIONS The accumulation of bad dietary habits contributes to the MetS developments. Thus, individualized lifestyle interventions are needed to correct bad dietary habits with regard to gender differences.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The signaling lymphocytic activation molecule family of receptors (SLAMF) is involved in the activation of T cells and plays important roles in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. The purpose of this study is to observe the expression of SLAMF3 on CD4 + T cells and its effect on the differentiation of T helper 17 (Th17) in primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS). Furthermore, we found iguratimod (IGU) could effectively reverse the aberrant Th17 differentiation through JAK1/STAT3 signaling. METHODS Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 40 pSS and 40 healthy control subjects were enrolled for analysis of expression of SLAMF3 on CD4 + T and Th17 cells by flow cytometry. Serum IL-17 and SLAMF3 were detected by ELISA assay. Labial biopsies from 20 pSS patients and 20 non-pSS controls were performed immunohistochemical for staining expression of CD4, IL-17, and SLAMF3. Under the priming conditions with anti-CD3/CD28 or CD3/SLAMF3 antibodies on CD4 + T cells extracted from pSS and controls, the proportion of Th17 cells in CD4 + T cells and the amount of soluble IL-17A were assessed by flow cytometry and ELISA. Furthermore, RNA sequencing was performed for the transcriptomics study. Additionally, RNA level of RORγt and IL-17A and the protein level of RORγt, p-JAK1 and p-STAT3, were detected by real-time PCR and western blot. RESULTS The expression levels of SLAMF3 on CD4 + T and Th17 cells in the peripheral blood and salivary glands in pSS patients were significantly elevated than that in control groups. The serum IL-17A and SLAMF3 in pSS patients were much higher compared with the control group. Although co-stimulation of CD3/SLAMF3 could promote CD4 + T cells differentiate into Th17 cells both in pSS and controls, the CD4 + T cells from pSS have a more sensitive response in Th17 differentiation with the SLAMF3 stimulation. Transcriptomics results showed the CD3/SLAMF3 stimulation caused the activation of Th17 signaling and JAK1/STAT3 pathway. Quantitative PCR and western blotting confirmed the IGU (iguratimod), which is a safe clinical drug in treatment of autoimmune diseases, effectively reversed the increased Th17 proportion, the expression levels of RORγt, pJAK1, and pSTAT3 caused by CD3/SLAMF3 stimulation. CONCLUSION SLAMF3 upregulates Th17 cell differentiation of CD4 + T cells and IL-17A secretion through enriching RORγt and activating the transcriptomics participating in the pathogenesis of primary Sjögren's syndrome. IGU could inhibit the process through this therapeutic target in pSS.

Abstract
Objective: To summarize the clinical features and genetic characteristics of Zellweger spectrum disorder caused by PEX6 gene variation. Methods: This was a case series research. Clinical date and genetic results of 2 neonatal cases of Zellweger syndrome caused by PEX6 gene variation in Wuhan Children's Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science & Technology and Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Medical University from July 2021 to July 2022 were retrospectively collected and analyzed. Literature up to August 2023 was searched from electronic databases of China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data and PubMed with the combined keywords of "Zellweger syndrome" "Zellweger spectrum disorder", and "PEX6 gene" both in Chinese and English. The main clinical features and genetic characteristics of Zellweger spectrum disorder caused by PEX6 gene variation were summarized. Results: The 2 male neonates both developed clinical manifestations as dyspnea, hypotonia, feeding difficulties, enlarged fontanelle, and high palatine arch after birth. Biochemical parameters indicated elevated bile acids, and the cranial ultrasound showed the enlarged bilateral ventricles and subependymal cyst in both 2 neonates. Zellweger syndrome was confirmed by whole exome sequencing, and the results revealed PEX6 gene variation in the 2 neonates, including compound heterozygous variants c.315G>A and c.2095-3T>G, and homozygous variant c.506_507del. Case 1 was hospitalized for 5 days, and case 2 for 32 days; they both died shortly after being discharged (the specific time is unknown). Literature review found 26 patients, including 2 neonates in this study, with Zellweger spectrum disorder caused by PEX6 gene defect reported in 1 Chinese article and 11 English articles. Clinical features included hearing loss (19 cases), developmental delay (19 cases), vision impairment (19 cases), elevated very long chain fatty acids (17 cases), brain malformations (15 cases), hypotonia (12 cases), hepatic insufficiency (12 cases), distinctive facies (10 cases), and dental impairment (9 cases). Compound heterozygous variations dominated the variation types (15 cases), and the frameshift variations (16 cases) were the main pathogenic variations. Conclusions: Zellweger spectrum disorder should be considered when neonates show hypotonia, feeding difficulty, distinctive facial appearance, brain malformations and failure of hearing screening, or when older children show retinitis pigmentosa, sensorineural hearing loss, amelogenesis imperfecta and developmental delays. Detection of genetic variation in the PEX gene is crucial for definitive diagnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Low-diversity diets and sedentary status are risk factors for depressive symptoms, while knowledge workers were ignored before. The purpose of this current study was to examine the relationship between dietary diversity, sedentary time spent outside of work, and depressive symptoms among knowledge workers. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS This was a multicenter and cross-sectional design that included 118,723 knowledge workers. Participants self-reported online between January 2018 and December 2020. Demographic information, the Dietary Diversity Scale, the Patient Health Questionnaire-9, dietary habits (which included eating three meals on time, midnight snacking, overeating, social engagement, coffee consumption, sugary drink consumption, smoking and alcohol use), sedentary time spent outside of work and physical activity were investigated. RESULTS The relationships between demographic information, dietary habits and dietary diversity, and depressive symptoms were estimated. Compared with the first and second levels of dietary diversity, the third level of dietary diversity (OR: 0.91; 95% CI: 0.84-0.98) reduced the risk of depressive symptoms. Knowledge workers with different degrees of sedentary status (2-4 h (OR: 1.11; 95% CI: 1.07-1.14), 4-6 h (OR: 1.21; 95% CI: 1.17-1.26), and > 6 h (OR: 1.49; 95% CI: 1.43-1.56), presented a progressively higher risk of depressive symptoms. CONCLUSION High amounts of sedentary time spent after work and low levels of dietary diversity are risk factors for depressive symptoms. In addition, an irregular diet and overeating are also major risk factors for knowledge workers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disorder that affects the joints and produces pain, swelling, and stiffness. It has a lifetime prevalence of up to 1% worldwide. An extract of Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F (TwHF), a member of the Celastraceae herbal family widely available in south China, has been used for treatment of RA since 1960s. METHODS The current consensus practice guidance (CPG) aims to offer guidance on the application of TwHF in the clinical management of active RA. The CPG followed World Health Organisation (WHO)'s recommended process, carried out three systematic reviews to synthesize data from 19 randomised controlled trials (RCT) involving 1795 participants. We utilized Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) to evaluate certainty of evidence and derive recommendations. We rigorously followed The Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation II (AGREE II) as conduct guides to minimise bias and promote transparency. RESULTS There was no obvious difference between TwHF monotherapy and methotrexate (MTX) monotherapy on ACR20 (RCT = 2, N = 390, RR = 1.06, 95%CI 0.90-1.26, moderate certainty), ACR50 (RCT = 3, N = 419, RR = 1.03, 95%CI 0.80-1.34, moderate certainty), ACR70 (RCT = 2, N = 390, RR = 1.12, 95%CI 0.69-1.79, low certainty). TwHF monotherapy may be better than salicylazosulfapyridine monotherapy on ACR20 and the effect may be similar on ACR50 and ACR70. Seven RCTs compared MTX combined with TwHF versus MTX monotherapy, and the meta-analysis results favoured combination therapy group on ACR20 (RCT = 3, N = 470, RR = 1.44, 95%CI 1.28-1.62, moderate certainty), ACR50 (RCT = 4, N = 500, RR = 1.88, 95%CI 1.56-2.28, moderate certainty) and ACR70 (RCT = 2, N = 390, RR = 2.12, 95%CI 1.40-3.19, low certainty). We found no obvious difference between groups on critical safety outcomes, including infection (RCT = 3, N = 493, RR = 1.37, 95%CI 0.84-2.23), liver dysfunction (RCT = 5, N = 643, RR = 1.14, 95%CI 0.71-1.85), renal damage (RCT = 3, N = 450, RR = 2.20, 95%CI 0.50-9.72). CONCLUSION Upon full review of the evidence, the guidance panel reached consensus on recommendations for the use of TwHF in people with active RA, either as monotherapy or as combination therapy with MTX.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) patients with hyperglobulinemia have an increased risk of all-cause mortality. METHODS Patients who registered in the Chinese Rheumatism Data Centre from May 2016 to July 2021 and met the 2002 American European Consensus Group criteria or 2016 American College of Rheumatology /European League Against Rheumatism classification criteria for Sjögren's syndrome were included. Hyperglobulinemia was defined as any elevated serum levels of immunoglobulin G (IgG), immunoglobulin A (IgA), or immunoglobulin M (IgM). The primary outcome was all-cause death. Data for demographic and clinical characteristics, laboratory results, disease activity, damage scores, and treatments were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 9527 pSS patients were included in the analysis, of whom 4236 (44.5%) had at least one kind of elevated immunoglobulin level among IgG, IgA, and IgM. Patients with hyperglobulinemia had a significantly increased risk of death (crude hazard ratio 2.60; 95% confidence interval 1.91-3.55; adjusted hazard ratio 1.90; 95% confidence interval 1.20-3.01). The risk of death was positively correlated with IgG level (P trend <.001). The 5-, 10-, and 15-year survival rates of patients with hyperglobulinemia were 96.9%, 92.3%, and 87.9%, respectively, and significantly lower than the corresponding rates of 98.8%, 97.9%, and 96.4% in patients without hyperglobulinemia. CONCLUSIONS Hyperglobulinemia is an independent risk factor for increased all-cause mortality in pSS patients. The risk of death is positively correlated with IgG level.

Abstract
Introduction Given the high prevalence of thyroid nodules and the potential for malignancy, it is imperative to understand the various factors that contribute to their development. This study aimed to explore the relationship between metabolic syndrome, lifestyle, and thyroid nodules in adult men in southern China. Methods This study enrolled a total of 183,990 subjects at a medical examination center in a general hospital in southern China between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2020. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was utilized to evaluate the relationship between metabolic syndrome, lifestyle factors, and thyroid nodules. Furthermore, structural equation modeling elucidated the intricate relationships among these variables. Results The prevalence of thyroid nodules among Chinese adult males was 14.9%. Several factors were identified as risk factors for thyroid nodules, including advanced age, irregular meal time, smoking or quitting smoking, quitting drinking, heavy manual labor, hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia and centripetal obesity, and those belonging to ethnic minorities and drinking alcohol were found to be protective factors against thyroid nodules. Structural equation modeling highlighted metabolic syndrome's mediating role amidst lifestyle influences on thyroid nodules. Conclusion The prevalence of thyroid nodules in Chinese adult males is relatively moderate to low. The factors identified in this study can help clinicians identify high-risk patients and develop targeted screening strategies for the timely detection of thyroid nodules. However, further mechanistic research and longitudinal studies are necessary to explore the underlying causes and establish causal relationships.

Abstract
Triptolide, a compound isolated from a Chinese medicinal herb, has potent antitumor, immunosuppressive, and anti-inflammatory properties. Due to its interesting structural features and diverse pharmacological activities, it has attracted great interest by the Society of Organic Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Chemistry. However, its clinical potential is greatly hampered by limited aqueous solubility and oral bioavailability, and multi-organ toxicity. In recent years, various derivatives of Triptolide have made varying degrees of progress in the treatment of inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases, and cancer. The most researched and potentially clinically valuable of them were (5R)-5-hydroxytriptolide (LLDT-8), PG490-88Na (F6008), and Minnelide. In this review, we provide an overview of the advancements made in triptolide and several of its derivatives' biological activity, mechanisms of action, and clinical development. We also summarized some prospects for the future development of triptolide and its derivatives. It is hoped to contribute to a better understanding of the progress in this field, make constructive suggestions for further studies of Triptolide, and provide a theoretical reference for the rational development of new drugs.

Abstract
Dental caries is a dynamic disease induced by the unbalance between demineralization of dental hard tissues caused by biofilm and remineralization of them; however, although various effective remineralization methods have been well documented, it is a challenge to reestablish the balance by enhancing remineralization alone while ignoring the antibacterial therapy. Therefore, the integration of remineralizing and antibacterial technologies offers a promising strategy to halt natural caries progression in clinical practice. Here, the conception of interrupting dental caries (IDC) was proposed based on the development of dual-functional coating with remineralizing and antibacterial properties. In this study, bovine serum albumin (BSA) loaded octenidine (OCT) successfully to form a BSA-OCT composite. Subsequently, through fast amyloid-like aggregation, the phase-transited BSA-OCT (PTB-OCT) coating can be covered on teeth, resin composite, or sealant surfaces in 30 min by a simple smearing process. The PTB-OCT coating showed satisfactory effects in promoting the remineralization of demineralized enamel and dentin in vitro. Moreover, this coating also exerted significant acid-resistance stability and anti-biofilm properties. Equally importantly, this coating exhibited promising abilities in reducing the microleakage between the tooth and resin composite in vitro and preventing primary and secondary caries in vivo. In conclusion, this novel dual-functional PTB-OCT coating could reestablish the balance between demineralization and remineralization in the process of caries, thereby potentially preventing or arresting caries.

Abstract
AIMS Perineural invasion (PNI) is a special type of metastasis of several cancers and has been reported as being a factor for poor prognosis in colorectal carcinoma. However, investigations of PNI in only rectal cancer and a comprehensive analysis combining meta-analyses with real-world case studies remain lacking. MATERIALS AND METHODS First, articles from 2000 to 2020 concerning the relationship between PNI and rectal cancer prognoses and clinical features were meta-analysed. Subsequently, we carried out a retrospective analysis of 312 rectal cancer cases that underwent radical surgery in the real world. The incidence of PNI and the relationship between PNI and prognosis, as well as clinicopathological factors, were investigated. RESULTS The incidence of PNI was 23.09% and 33.01% in the meta-analysis and clinical cases, respectively. PNI occurred as early as stage I (2.94%). Moreover, neoadjuvant therapy significantly reduced the PNI-positive rate (20.34% versus 26.54%). Both meta-analysis and real-world clinical case studies suggested that PNI-positive patients had poorer prognoses than PNI-negative patients. We established an effective risk model consisting of T stage, differentiation and lymphovascular invasion to predict PNI in rectal cancer. CONCLUSION PNI is a poor prognostic factor for rectal cancer and could occur even in stage I. Additionally, neoadjuvant therapy could sufficiently reduce the PNI-positive rate. T stage, lymphovascular invasion and differentiation grade were independent risk factors for PNI and the risk model that included these factors could predict the probability of PNI.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) The anti-tumor activity and tolerability of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and PD-1 inhibitors have been illustrated in retrospective studies, but the results vary across a broad range. This study aimed to assess the clinical efficacy of SBRT combined with sintilimab in patients with recurrent or oligometastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). MATERIALS/METHODS This trial involved patients with recurrent or oligometastatic HCC intravenously treated with SBRT plus sintilimab every 3 weeks for 12 months or until disease progression. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS Twenty-five patients were enrolled from August 14, 2019, to August 23, 2021. The median treatment duration was 10.2 months. SBRT was delivered at a median dose of 54 in six fractions. The median follow-up time was 21.9 months, and 32 targeted lesions among 25 patients were evaluated for treatment response according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. The median PFS was 19.7 months, with PFS rates of 68% and 45.3% at 12 and 24 months, respectively. The median overall survival (OS) was not reached, with OS rates of 91.5% and 83.2% at 12 and 24 months, respectively. The 1- and 2-year local control rate were 100% and 90.9%, respectively. The confirmed objective response rate and disease control rate was 96%, and 96%, respectively. Most adverse events were graded as 1 or 2, and grade 3 adverse events were observed in three patients. CONCLUSION SBRT plus sintilimab is an effective, well-tolerated treatment regimen for patients with recurrent or oligometastatic HCC.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of local injection of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) combined with double-layer artificial dermis in treating wounds with exposed tendon on extremity. Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted. From December 2017 to October 2022, 16 patients were admitted to Department of Orthopaedic Trauma of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and 32 patients were admitted to Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery of Guiyang Steel Factory Staff Hospital. All the patients had wounds with exposed tendon on extremity caused by various reasons and met the inclusion criteria. There were 39 males and 9 females, aged 26 to 58 years. The patients were divided into PRP alone group, artificial dermis alone group, and PRP+artificial dermis group, with 16 patients in each group. The wounds were treated with autologous PRP, double-layer artificial dermis, or thei combination of autologous PRP and double-layer artificial dermis, followed by autologous split-thickness scalp grafting after good growth of granulation tissue. On the 7th day after the secondary surgery, the autograft survival was observed, and the survival rate was calculated. The wound healing time and length of hospital stay of patients were recorded. At 3 and 6 months after wound healing, the Vancouver scar scale (VSS) was used to score the pigmentation, height, vascularity, and pliability of scars, and the total score was calculated. Adverse reactions during the entire treatment process were recorded. Data were statistically analyzed with chi-square test, Fisher's exact probability test, one-way analysis of variance, least significant difference test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, Nemenyi test, and Bonferroni correction. Results: On the 7th day after the secondary surgery, there was no statistically significant difference in the autograft survival rate of patients among PRP alone group, artificial dermis alone group, and PRP+artificial dermis group (P>0.05). The wound healing time and length of hospital stay of patients in PRP+artificial dermis group were (20.1±3.0) and (24±4) d, respectively, which were significantly shorter than (24.4±5.5) and (30±8) d in PRP alone group (P<0.05) and (24.8±4.9) and (32±8) d in artificial dermis alone group (P<0.05). At 3 and 6 months after wound healing, the pliability scores of patients in PRP+artificial dermis group were significantly lower than those in PRP alone group (with Z values of 12.91 and 15.69, respectively, P<0.05) and artificial dermis alone group (with Z values of 12.50 and 12.91, respectively, P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in pigmentation, vascularity, height scores, and total score of scar of patients among the three groups (P>0.05). In artificial dermis alone group, one patient experienced partial liquefaction and detachment of the double-layer artificial dermis due to local infection of Staphylococcus epidermidis, which received wound dressing change, second artificial dermis transplantation, and subsequent treatment as before. No adverse reactions occurred in the remaining patients during the whole treatment process. Conclusions: Local injection of PRP combined with double-layer artificial dermis is effective in treating wounds with exposed tendon on extremity, which can not only significantly shorten wound healing time and length of hospital stay, but also improve scar pliability after wound healing to some extent in the long term. It is a clinically valuable treatment technique that is worth promoting and applying.

Abstract
Objective: To understand the incubation periods of infections of Omicron variants BA.2 and BF.7 in two COVID-19 epidemics and related factors in Beijing and provide basic parameters for the establishment of 2019-nCoV dynamic transmission model. Methods: The COVID-19 cases with specific exposure time and onset time in the Omicron variant BA.2 infection epidemic in April 2022 and in the Omicron variant BF.7 infection epidemic in October 2022 in Beijing were included in the analysis. The rank-sum test was conducted to estimate the differences in the incubation period between two types of infections. The incubation period distribution of the Omicron variant infection was fitted by using Weibull, Gamma and lognormal distributions. Multivariate analysis of variance was conducted to assess the effects of age, sex, variant type and vaccination status on the incubation periods. Results: A total of 64 cases of variant BA.2 infection and 58 cases of variant BF.7 infection were included. The M(Q1,Q3) of the incubation period was 3.00 (3.00, 4.00) days for BA.2 infection and 3.00 (2.00, 3.25) days for BF.7 infection. The lognormal distribution was the best fit. Multivariate analysis of variance showed that there were some differences in the incubation periods between two types of infections of Omicron variants, and the incubation period of variant BF.7 infection was shorter than that of variant BA.2 infection. Conclusion: Omicron variant BF.7 infection had shorter incubation period compared with Omicron variant BA.2 infection.

Abstract
Our aim was to examine the associations between work intensity and depressive symptoms among the working population, as well as to identify the impact of physical activity (PA) on these relationships. Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to analyze the correlations among work intensity, PA, and depressive symptoms. Working hours and working days were positively correlated with depressive symptoms (r = 0.108, 0.063; all p values were <0.001). Regular PA, exercise time, exercise frequency, and exercise years were negatively correlated with depressive symptoms (r = -0.121, -0.124, -0.152, -0.149; all p values were <0.001) and working days (r = -0.066, -0.050, -0.069, -0.044; all p values were <0.001), working hours (r = -0.113. -0.106, -0.161, -0.123; all p values were <0.001). Working days was positively correlated with working hours (r = 0.512, p < 0.001). Different levels of PA alleviated the effect of working hours or working days on depressive symptoms. Working hours seemed to be more correlated with depressive symptoms than working days. The results suggest that PA at any level could buffer against the effects of work intensity and might prove a helpful strategy for improving mental health issues among employees.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE) is a serious phenotype of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The disturbance of neuron-microglia crosstalk is recently revealed in many neuropsychiatric diseases but was not well studied in NPSLE. We found glucose regulatory protein 78 (GRP78), a marker of endoplasmic reticulum stress, was significantly increased in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of our NPSLE cohort. We, therefore, investigated whether GRP78 can act as a mediator between the neuron-microglia crosstalk and is involved in the pathogenic process of NPSLE. METHODS Serum and CSF parameters were analyzed in 22 NPSLE patients and controls. Anti-DWEYS IgG was injected intravenously into mice to establish a model of NPSLE. Behavioral assessment, histopathological staining, RNA-seq analyses, and biochemical assays were performed to examine the neuro-immunological alterations in the mice. Rapamycin was intraperitoneally administered to define the therapeutic effect. RESULTS The level of GRP78 was elevated significantly in the CSF of the patients with NPSLE. An increase in GRP78 expression, accompanied by neuroinflammation and cognitive impairment, was also found in the brain tissues of the NPSLE model mice induced by anti-DWEYS IgG deposition on hippocampal neurons. In vitro experiments demonstrated that anti-DWEYS IgG could stimulate neurons to release GRP78, which activated microglia via TLR4/MyD88/NFκB pathway to produce more pro-inflammatory cytokines and promote migration and phagocytosis. Rapamycin ameliorated GRP78-inducing neuroinflammation and cognitive impairment in anti-DWEYS IgG-transferred mice. CONCLUSION GRP78 acts as a pathogenic factor in neuropsychiatric disorders via interfering neuron-microglia crosstalk. Rapamycin may be a promising therapeutic candidate for NPSLE.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neuroinflammation has been identified as one of the primary pathogenic factors of neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE). However, there are no dedicated treatments available in clinics to alleviate neuroinflammation in NPSLE. It has been proposed that stimulating basal forebrain (BF) cholinergic neurons may provide potent anti-inflammatory effects in several inflammatory diseases, but its potential role in NPSLE remains unexplored. This study aims to investigate whether and how stimulating BF cholinergic neurons has a protective effect on NPSLE. RESULTS Optogenetic stimulation of BF cholinergic neurons significantly ameliorated olfactory dysfunction and anxiety- and depression-like phenotype in pristane induced lupus (PIL) mice. The increased expression of adhesion molecules (P-selectin and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1)), leukocyte recruitment, blood-brain barrier (BBB) leakage were significantly decreased. Notably, the brain histopathological changes, including the elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β), IgG deposition in the choroid plexus and lateral ventricle wall and lipofuscin accumulation in the cortical and hippocampal neurons, were also significantly attenuated. Furthermore, we confirmed the colocalization between the BF cholinergic projections and the cerebral vessels, and the expression of α7-nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7nAChR) on the cerebral vessels. CONCLUSION Our data indicate that stimulation of BF cholinergic neurons could play a neuroprotective role in the brain through its cholinergic anti-inflammatory effects on cerebral vessels. Therefore, this may be a promising preventive target for NPSLE.

Abstract
Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a new diagnostic criterion based on hepatic steatosis and metabolic dysfunction. However, a comprehensive evaluation of the association of MAFLD dynamic transitions with arterial stiffness progression has yet to be conducted. This cohort study included 8807 Chinese health check-up participants (median follow-up = 50.2 months). Participants were categorized into four groups according to MAFLD status at baseline and follow-up (none, persistent, developed and regressed). Arterial stiffness progression was assessed by the annual brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (ba-PWV) increase and arterial stiffness incidence. Compared with the non-MAFLD group, the annual increase in ba-PWV was highest in the persistent-MAFLD group [6.75 cm/s/year, (95% CI 4.03-9.33)], followed by the developed-[6.35 cm/s/year, (95% CI 3.80-8.91)] and the regressed-[1.27 cm/s/year, (95% CI - 2.18 to 4.72)] MAFLD groups. Similarly, compared with the non-MAFLD group, the persistent-MAFLD group had a 1.31-fold increased arterial stiffness risk [OR 1.31; 95% CI 1.03-1.66]. The associations of MAFLD transition patterns with arterial stiffness incidence did not differ across any clinically specific subgroups evaluated. Furthermore, the potential effect of dynamic changes in cardiometabolic risk factors on arterial stiffness incidence among persistent-MAFLD participants was mostly driven by annual fasting glucose and triglyceride increases. In conclusion, persistent MAFLD was associated with an increased risk of arterial stiffness development. Moreover, in persistent-MAFLD subjects, elevated blood glucose and triglyceride levels might facilitate the arterial stiffness incidence.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of elderly patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and the impact of nutrition and underlying diseases on the prognosis of elderly patients with MCL. Methods: retrospectively analyzed 255 elderly patients with MCL from 11 medical centers, including Peking University Third Hospital between January 2000 and February 2021. We analyzed clinical data, such as age, gender, Mantle Cell Lymphoma International Prognostic Index score, and treatment options, and performed univariate and multivariate prognostic analysis. We performed a comprehensive geriatric assessment on elderly MCL patients with medical records that included retraceable underlying disease and albumin levels, and we investigated the impact of basic nutrition and underlying disorders on MCL prognosis in the elderly. Results: There were 255 senior individuals among the 795 MCL patients. Elderly MCL was more common in males (78.4%), with a median age of 69 yr (ages 65-88), and the majority (88.6%) were identified at a late stage. The 3-yr overall survival (OS) rate was 42.0%, with a 21.2% progression-free survival (PFS) rate. The overall response rate (ORR) was 77.3%, with a 33.3% total remission rate. Elderly patients were more likely than younger patients to have persistent underlying illnesses, such as hypertension. Multivariate analysis revealed that variables related with poor PFS included age of ≥80 (P=0.021), Ann Arbor stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ (P=0.003), high LDH level (P=0.003), involvement of bone marrow (P=0.014). Age of ≥80 (P=0.001) and a high LDH level (P=0.003) were risk factors for OS. The complete geriatric assessment revealed that renal deficiency was associated with poorer OS (P=0.047) . Conclusions: Elderly MCL patients had greater comorbidities. Age, LDH, renal function, bone marrow involvement, and Ann Arbor stage are all independent risk factors for MCL in the elderly.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the efficacy and prognostic factors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for treating T lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (T-ALL/LBL) . Methods: This study retrospectively evaluated 119 adolescent and adult patients with T-ALL/LBL from January 2006 to January 2020 at Peking University Third Hospital and Institute of Hematology and Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. Patients were divided into chemotherapy-only, chemotherapy followed by allo-HSCT, and chemotherapy followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) groups according to the consolidation regimen, and the 5-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) rates of each group were compared. Results: Among 113 patients with effective follow-up, 96 (84.9%) patients achieved overall response (ORR), with 79 (69.9%) having complete response (CR) and 17 (15.0%) having partial response (PR), until July 2022. The analysis of the 96 ORR population revealed that patients without transplantation demonstrated poorer outcomes compared with the allo-HSCT group (5-year OS: 11.4% vs 55.6%, P=0.001; 5-year PFS: 8.9% vs 54.2%, P<0.001). No difference was found in 5-year OS and 5-year PFS between the allo-HSCT and auto-HSCT groups (P=0.271, P=0.197). The same results were achieved in the CR population. Allo-HSCT got better 5-year OS (37.5% vs 0) for the 17 PR cases (P=0.064). Different donor sources did not affect 5-year OS, with sibling of 61.1% vs hap-haploidentical of 63.6% vs unrelated donor of 50.0% (P>0.05). No significant difference was found in the treatment response in the early T-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (ETP) and non-ETP populations. The ETP group demonstrated lower 5-year OS compared with the non-ETP group in the chemotherapy alone group (0 vs 12.6%, P=0.045), whereas no significant difference was found between the ETP and non-ETP groups in the allo-HSCT group (75.0% vs 62.9%, P=0.852). Multivariate analysis revealed that high serum lactate dehydrogenase level, without transplantation, and no CR after chemotherapy induction were independently associated with inferior outcomes (P<0.05) . Conclusion: Allo-HSCT could be an effective consolidation therapy for adult and adolescent patients with T-ALL/LBL. Different donor sources did not affect survival. Allo-HSCT may overcome the adverse influence of ETP-ALL/LBL on OS.

Abstract
Background Insulin resistance (IR) and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are closely related. The triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index) has been proposed as a new indicator of IR. It remains unclear whether the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is prospectively associated with incident nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methods This large-scale study comprised 1 prospective cohort totaling 22,758 subjects without NAFLD at baseline who underwent repeated health examinations and 1 subcohort totaling 7,722 subjects with more than three visits. The TyG index was ascertained mathematically by ln (fasting triglycerides [mg/dL] × fasting glucose [mg/dL]/2). NAFLD was diagnosed by ultrasound without other concomitant liver diseases. A combinatorial Cox proportional hazard model and latent class growth mixture modeling method were used to identify the association of the TyG index and its transition trajectories with NAFLD risk. Results During 53,481 person-years of follow-up, there were 5319 incident cases with NAFLD. Compared with those in the lowest quartile of the baseline TyG index, participants in the highest quartile had 2.52-fold (95% confidence interval, 2.21-2.86) higher odds of incident NAFLD. Similarly, restricted cubic spline analysis showed a dose-response relationship (p nonlinearity<0.001). Subgroup analyses showed a more significant association in the female and normal body size populations (p for interaction<0.001). Three distinct trajectories of changes in the TyG index were identified. Compared with the continued low group, the moderately increasing and highly increasing groups conferred 1.91-fold (1.65-2.21) and 2.19-fold (1.73-2.77) higher NAFLD risk, respectively. Conclusions Participants with a higher baseline TyG index or a higher excessive TyG exposure were associated with an increased NAFLD risk. The findings imply that lifestyle interventions and modulation of IR might be considered to both reduce TyG index levels and prevent NAFLD development.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the association of metabolic syndrome (MetS) risk with 24-hour urinary sodium excretion (24hUNaE) estimated from spot urine samples. DESIGN Serial cross-sectional studies were conducted, and those with multiple repeated examinations were used to assess the MetS incidence risk. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS A health check-up programme was conducted between 2018 and 2021 and enrolled 59 292 participants to evaluate the relationship between MetS risk and 24hUNaE in the Third Xiangya Hospital, Changsha, China. Among these participants, 9550 had at least two physical examinations during this period, which were used to evaluate the association of a new occurrence of MetS with 24hUNaE. OUTCOMES Guidelines for the prevention and treatment of dyslipidaemia in Chinese adults (revised in 2016) were used to define prevalent and incident MetS. RESULTS The prevalence of MetS was 19.3% at the first check-up; among individuals aged ≤55 years, the risk was higher in men than women, while among older individuals, a similar prevalence was observed in both sexes. A significant increase in MetS prevalence was observed per unit increase in 24hUNaE (adjusted OR (AOR) 1.11; 95% CI 1.09 to 1.13), especially for the prevalence of central obesity and elevated blood pressure. Additionally, 27.4% of the participants among the 7842 participants without MetS at the first check-up (male vs female: 37.3% vs 12.9%) were found to have a new occurrence of MetS at the second, third and/or fourth check-ups. A 25% increase in MetS incidence was observed per unit increase in 24hUNaE (95% CI 1.19 to 1.32), which was more prominent in the participants with a new occurrence of central obesity and elevated fasting blood glucose. CONCLUSIONS Although the prevalence of MetS seemed stable, new occurrences of MetS remained high, which might result in MetS recurrence. The influence of sodium intake on MetS development is probably attributed to the increase in blood pressure and central obesity, but a new occurrence of MetS may develop through elevated blood glucose and central obesity.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the point-of-care assays for tear matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) using domestic and InflammaDry kits, and to evaluate the feasibility of diagnosing dry eye with the domestic kit. Methods: It was a cross-sectional study. Thirty dry eye patients and 30 age-and sex-matched normal volunteers were continuously enrolled in this cross-sectional study from June 2022 to July 2022. Both domestic and InflammaDry kits were used to detect the tear MMP-9 levels. The positive rates were recorded for qualitative analysis, and the gray ratios of bands (the gray value of detection bands to that of control bands) were collected for quantitative analysis. The correlations of MMP-9 levels with age, ocular surface disease index, fluorescence tear break-up time, tear meniscus height, Schirmer's Ⅰ test score, corneal fluorescein staining score, and meibomian gland dropout were analyzed. The Mann-Whitney U test, paired Chi-square test, Kappa test, and Spearman's correlation coefficient were used for statistical analysis. Results: There were 14 males and 16 females (30 eyes) in the control group, and their age was (39.37±19.55) years. In the dry eye group, 11 males and 19 females (30 eyes), aged (46.87±17.85) years, had moderate to severe dry eye. The positive rates of MMP-9 in tear fluid were significantly different between dry eye patients (InflammaDry: 86.67%; domestic kit: 70.00%) and controls (InflammaDry: 16.67%, P<0.001; domestic kit: 6.67%, P<0.001). Although the sensitivity of the domestic kit was lower than that of the InflammaDry kit (70.0% vs. 86.7%, P=0.001), the specificity was higher (93.3% vs. 83.3%, P=0.001). In dry eye patients, the positive coincidence rate was 80.7% (21/26), the negative coincidence rate was 100% (4/4), and the total coincidence rate was 83.3% (25/30), with no significant difference between the two kits (McNemar test: χ2=3.20, P>0.05), and the results of both kits were consistent (Kappa=0.53, P=0.001). The Spearman's correlation coefficient showed the gray ratios using both kits were positively correlated with the corneal fluorescein staining score (InflammaDry: ρ=0.48, P<0.05; domestic kit: ρ=0.52, P=0.003). Conclusion: The performances of the domestic and InflammaDry kits are consistent in the point-of-care assay for tear MMP-9, and the domestic kit has lower sensitivity but higher specificity.

Abstract
Arterial stiffness is an independent cardiovascular risk factor. However, the association between sodium/potassium intake and arterial stiffness in the Chinese population is unclear. Therefore, we performed a large, community-based cross-sectional study to reach a more definitive conclusion. The study was conducted at the Third Xiangya Hospital in Changsha between August 2017 and September 2019. Urinary sodium, potassium, and creatinine levels were tested from spot urine samples during physical examinations of each recruited participant. The 24-hour estimated urinary sodium excretion (eUNaE) and estimated urinary potassium excretion (eUKE) levels were calculated using the Kawasaki formula (used as a surrogate for intake). The brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and ankle brachial index (ABI) were measured using an automatic waveform analyzer. In 22,557 subjects with an average age of 49.3 ± 10.3 years, the relationships of the ABI and baPWV with the levels of eUNaE, eUKE and the ratio of sodium to potassium (Na/K ratio) were analyzed. A significant negative relationship was found between the eUKE and baPWV levels (β = 2.41, p < 0.01), whereas the Na/K ratio was positively associated with baPWV (β = 2.46, p < 0.01), especially in the overweight and hypertensive populations (both pinteraction = 0.04). The association of eUNaE quartiles with baPWV presented a J-shaped curve after adjusting for confounders. In addition, a positive association was observed between the Na/K ratio and the ABI (β = 0.002, p < 0.01). In this study, high potassium and/or low sodium intake was further confirmed to be related to vascular stiffness in Chinese individuals.

Abstract
Objective: To estimate the latent period and incubation period of Omicron variant infections and analyze associated factors. Methods: From January 1 to June 30, 2022, 467 infected persons and 335 confirmed cases in five local Omicron variant outbreaks in China were selected as the study subjects. The latent period and incubation period were estimated by using log-normal distribution and gamma distribution models, and the associated factors were analyzed by using the accelerated failure time model (AFT). Results: The median (Q1, Q3) age of 467 Omicron infections including 253 males (54.18%) was 26 (20, 39) years old. There were 132 asymptomatic infections (28.27%) and 335 (71.73%) symptomatic infections. The mean latent period of 467 Omicron infections was 2.65 (95%CI: 2.53-2.78) days, and 98% of infections were positive for nucleic acid detection within 6.37 (95%CI: 5.86-6.82) days after infection. The mean incubation period of 335 symptomatic infections was 3.40 (95%CI: 3.25-3.57) days, and 97% of them developed clinical symptoms within 6.80 (95%CI: 6.34-7.22) days after infection. The results of the AFT model analysis showed that compared with the group aged 18~49 years old, the latent period [exp(β)=1.36 (95%CI: 1.16-1.60), P<0.001] and incubation period [exp(β)=1.24 (95%CI: 1.07-1.45), P=0.006] of infections aged 0~17 year old were also prolonged. The latent period [exp(β)=1.38 (95%CI: 1.17-1.63), P<0.001] and the incubation period [exp(β)=1.26 (95%CI: 1.06-1.48), P=0.007] of infections aged 50 years old and above were also prolonged. Conclusion: The latent period and incubation period of most Omicron infections are within 7 days, and age may be the influencing factor of the latent period and incubation period.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To establish a protocol for reprogramming human embryonic fibroblasts (HEFs) into chemically induced neural progenitor cells (ciNPCs). METHODS In the two-staged reprogramming of HEFs, the intermediate compact cell colonies were first chemically induced in KSR medium containing small-molecule compounds (VCR) for 15 days in normoxia, followed by the lineage-specific induction stage, in which the compact cell colonies were digested with 0.25% trypsin and the cells were cultured in low adhesion plates. After formation of a large number of free-floating neurospheres 2 days later, the ciNPCs were labeled with CM-DiI and transplanted into rat models of Parkinson's disease (PD)to observe the survival, migration and differentiation of the cells in PD brain. RESULTS After induction with VCR for 10 days under normoxic condition, compact cell colonies occurred in HEF cultures (approximately 40 colonies in each well containing 1×105 HEFs), and most of the colonies expressed high levels of alkaline phosphatase. A large number of free-floating neurospheres formed 2 days after passage and were defined as P1 ciNPCs. These ciNPCs exhibited typical neurosphere-like structures and expressed NPC-specific markers (nestin, Sox2, and Pax6). Under neuronal or glial differentiation condition, the ciNPCs expressed the neuron-specific marker Tuj1 and the astrocyte-specific marker GFAP. These ciNPCs could differentiate into Tuj1+, GFAP+, TH+ and GABA+ cells 4 weeks after transplantation into the brain of PD rats. CONCLUSION HEFs can be directly reprogrammed into ciNPCs using smallmolecule compounds without the need of introducing exogenous genes. This success may provide a solution to the shortage of donor materials for neuroscience research and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the infection sources and the transmission chains of three outbreaks caused by 2019-nCoV Omicron variant possibly spread through cross-border logistics in Beijing. Methods: Epidemiological investigation and big data were used to identify the exposure points of the cases. Close contacts were traced from the exposure points, and the cases' and environmental samples were collected for nucleic acid tests. Positive samples were analyzed by gene sequencing. Results: The Omicron variant causing 3 outbreaks in Beijing from January to April, 2022 belonged to BA.1, BA.1.1 and BA.2. The outbreaks lasted for 8, 12 and 8 days respectively, and 6, 42 and 32 cases infected with 2019-nCoV were reported respectively. International mail might be the infection source for 1 outbreak, and imported clothes might be the infection sources for another 2 outbreaks. The interval between the shipment start time of the imported goods and the infection time of the index case was 3-4 days. The mean incubation period (Q1, Q3) was 3 (2,4) days and the mean serial interval (Q1, Q3) was 3 (2,4)days. Conclusions: The 3 outbreaks highlighted the risk of infection by Omicron variant from international logistics-related imported goods at normal temperature. Omicron variant has stronger transmissibility, indicating that rapid epidemiological investigation and strict management are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pristane-induced lupus (PIL) model is a useful tool for studying environmental-related systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). However, neuropsychiatric manifestations in this model have not been investigated in detail. Because neuropsychiatric lupus (NPSLE) is an important complication of SLE, we investigated the neuropsychiatric symptoms in the PIL mouse model to evaluate its suitability for NPSLE studies. RESULTS PIL mice showed olfactory dysfunction accompanied by an anxiety- and depression-like phenotype at month 2 or 4 after pristane injection. The levels of cytokines (IL-1β, IFN-α, IFN-β, IL-10, IFN-γ, IL-6, TNF-α and IL-17A) and chemokines (CCL2 and CXCL10) in the brain and blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability increased significantly from week 2 or month 1, and persisted throughout the observed course of the disease. Notably, IgG deposition in the choroid plexus and lateral ventricle wall were observed at month 1 and both astrocytes and microglia were activated. Persistent activation of astrocytes was detected throughout the observed course of the disease, while microglial activation diminished dramatically at month 4. Lipofuscin deposition, a sign of neuronal damage, was detected in cortical and hippocampal neurons from month 4 to 8. CONCLUSION PIL mice exhibit a series of characteristic behavioral deficits and pathological changes in the brain, and therefore might be suitable for investigating disease pathogenesis and for evaluating potential therapeutic targets for environmental-related NPSLE.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS AND AIMS Unexplained iron deficiency is associated with poorer survival in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH). Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling and BMP protein type II receptor (BMPR2) expression are important in the pathogenesis of PH. BMP6 in hepatocytes is a central transcriptional regulator of the iron hormone hepcidin that controls systemic iron balance. This study aimed to investigate the effects of BMP signaling on iron metabolism and its implication in hypoxia-induced PH. METHODS AND RESULTS PH was induced in Sprague-Dawley Rats under hypoxia for 4 weeks. Compared with the control group, right ventricular systolic pressure and right ventricle hypertrophy index were both markedly increased, and serum iron level was significantly decreased with iron metabolic disorder in the hypoxia group. In cultured human pulmonary artery endothelial cells (HPAECs), hypoxia increased oxidative stress and apoptosis, which were reversed by supplementation with Fe agent. Meanwhile, iron chelator deferoxamine triggered oxidative stress and apoptosis in HPAECs, and treatment with antioxidant alleviated iron-deficiency-induced apoptosis by reducing reactive oxygen species production. Expression of hepcidin, BMP6 and hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α were significantly upregulated, while expression of BMPR2 was downregulated in hepatocytes in the hypoxia group, both in vivo and in vitro. Expression of hepcidin and HIF-1α were significantly increased by BMP6, while pretreatment with siRNA-BMPR2 augmented the enhanced expression of hepcidin and HIF-1α induced by BMP6. CONCLUSIONS Iron deficiency promoted oxidative stress and apoptosis in HPAECs in hypoxia-induced PH, and enhanced expression of hepcidin regulated by BMP6/BMPR2 signaling may contribute to iron metabolic disorder.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Depression is the leading cause of mental health-related disease burden. This study aimed to investigate the relationship among dietary diversity, physical activity and depressive symptoms in middle-aged women. METHOD Based on the WHO guidelines on physical activity, subjects who meet moderate-intensity aerobic physical exercise of 150-300 min per week were qualified or otherwise unqualified. The dietary diversity scores (DDS) were developed according to the balanced diet pagoda and assessed the consumption of nine food groups. The total scores ranged from 0 to 9 and could divide into three levels: insufficient [DDS-1] (score of 1-5), moderate [DDS-2] (score of 6-7), and sufficient [DDS-3] (score of 8-9). RESULTS An age at menarche ≥12 years old (OR = 0.94; 95 % CI: 0.89-1.00; p < 0.05), a higher dietary diversity score [DDS-3] (OR = 0.59; 95 % CI: 0.55-0.63; p < 0.001), drinking coffee (OR = 0.88; 95 % CI: 0.84-0.92; p < 0.001), and qualified physical activity (OR = 0.69; 95 % CI: 0.66-0.72; p < 0.001) were protective factors for depressive symptoms, while an age at first birth ≤20 years old (OR = 1.23; 95 % CI: 1.12-1.36; p < 0.001) or ≥30 years old (OR = 1.18; 95 % CI: 1.11-1.26; p < 0.001), eating late-night snacks (OR = 1.44; 95 % CI: 1.36-1.52; p < 0.001), drinking sugar-sweetened beverages (OR = 1.15; 95 % CI: 1.06-1.24; p < 0.001), and overeating (OR = 2.30; 95 % CI: 2.069-2.56; p < 0.001) were risk factors. CONCLUSION This study suggested that dietary diversity and physical activity are associated with depressive symptoms in middle-aged women. To improve dietary diversity, attention should be given to dietary patterns and dietary habits, instead of simply increasing the amount of food.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the predictive value of neutrophils-to-lymphocytes ratio (NLR) for atrial fibrillation recurrence after radiofrequency ablation in atrial fibrillation patients combined with heart failure. Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study. Patients with atrial fibrillation and heart failure who received radiofrequency ablation in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2019 to June 2020 were included. Patient were followed up in the outpatient clinic at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after radiofrequency ablation and were divided into recurrent and non-recurrent groups according to the absence or presence of atrial fibrillation. Demographic data, echocardiographic indices and inflammation-related indices including NLR were collected and compared between the two groups. Spearman rank correlation was performed to analyze the correlation of NLR with atrial fibrillation recurrence after radiofrequency ablation. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine independent risk factors of atrial fibrillation recurrence after radiofrequency ablation. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the value of NLR in predicting the atrial fibrillation recurrence after radiofrequency ablation. Results: A total of 883 patients were included, of which 460 (52.1%) were male, mean age was (64.4±10.7) years old. There were 246 patients (27.9%) in the recurrence group and 637 patients (72.1%) in the non-recurrence group. Compared with the non-recurrent group, the duration of atrial fibrillation, NLR, neutrophil count, N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide precursor (NT-proBNP) and body mass index levels were significantly higher, while lymphocyte count was significantly lower in the recurrence group than in the non-recurrent group (all P<0.05). Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that NLR was positively correlated with the atrial fibrillation recurrence (r=0.333, P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that NLR was an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation recurrence after radiofrequency ablation in atrial fibrillation patients combined heart failure (OR=1.634, P<0.001). The ROC curve showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of NLR in predicting the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation was 0.715 (95%CI: 0.668-0.762, P<0.001), with a sensitivity of 55.61% and a specificity of 84.54%. Conclusion: NLR is a useful predictor of atrial fibrillation recurrence after radiofrequency ablation in atrial fibrillation patients combined with heart failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic autoimmune disease involving multiple organs throughout the body. The health care-seeking behaviors, disease progression of SLE, and patients' knowledge of and attitudes toward SLE have not been characterized in China. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to depict the health care-seeking behaviors, disease progression, and medications in patients with SLE and to examine the factors associated with their disease flares, knowledge, and attitudes toward SLE in China. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional survey in 27 provinces in China. Descriptive statistical methods were used to depict the demographic characteristics, health care-seeking behaviors, medications, and health status. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to identify the factors associated with disease flares, medication changes, and attitudes toward SLE. An ordinal regression model was used to examine the factors associated with the knowledge of the treatment guidelines. RESULTS We recruited 1509 patients with SLE, and 715 had lupus nephritis (LN). Approximately 39.96% (603/1509) of the patients with SLE were primarily diagnosed with LN, and 12.4% (112/906) developed LN (mean time 5.2 years) from non-LN. Patients whose registered permanent residences or workplaces in other cities from the same province and adjacent provinces seeking health care accounted for 66.9% (569/850) and 48.8% (479/981) of the patients with SLE in the provincial capital cities, respectively. Mycophenolate mofetil was the most commonly used immunosuppressive drug in patients without LN (185/794, 23.3%) and patients with LN (307/715, 42.9%). Femoral head necrosis (71/228, 31.1%) and hypertension (99/229, 43.2%) were the most common adverse event (AE) and chronic disease during treatment, respectively. Change of hospitals for medical consultation (odds ratio [OR] 1.90, 95% CI 1.24-2.90) and development of 1 chronic disease (OR 3.60, 95% CI 2.04-6.24) and AE (OR 2.06, 95% CI 1.46-2.92) and more were associated with disease flares. A pregnancy plan (OR 1.58, 95% CI 1.18-2.13) was associated with changes in medication. Only 242 (16.03%) patients with SLE were familiar with the treatment guidelines, and patients with LN tended to be more familiar with the disease (OR 2.20, 95% CI 1.81-2.68). After receiving treatment, 891 (59.04%) patients changed their attitudes toward SLE from fear to acceptance, and patients with college education or higher (OR 2.09, 95% CI 1.10-4.04) were associated with a positive attitude toward SLE. CONCLUSIONS A large proportion of patients seeking health care in the provincial capital cities of China migrated from other cities. Persistent monitoring of potential AEs and chronic diseases during SLE treatment and managing patients who changed hospitals for medical consultation are essential for controlling disease flares. Patients had insufficient knowledge about SLE treatment guidelines and would benefit from health education to maintain a positive attitude toward SLE.

Abstract
Objectives: To examine the landscape and metastases of the lymph nodes in prostatic anterior fat pad (PAFP) at radical prostatectomy (RP), and to describe the clinical characteristic of the patients with lymph node metastases in PAFP. Methods: The clinical and pathological data of 287 prostate cancer patients underwent RP from December 2019 to August 2021 in Department of Urology, Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center were collected and analyzed retrospectively. All patients were male, aging (66±7) years (range: 42 to 83 years). The preoperative prostate-specific antigen (PSA) (M(IQR)) were 16.00(29.64) μg/L (range: 0.01 to 99.90 μg/L). There were 244 patients with localized or locally advanced prostate cancer and 43 patients with metastatic prostate cancer. All PAFP were dissected at RP routinely and were sent for pathologic analysis respectively. The PAFP was dissected from the prostate apex caudally toward the bladder neck and dissection extended to the joint of the prostate and the endopelvic fascia bilaterally. All the specimen of PAFP were examined and reported by subspecialty pathologists of genitourinary tumors. Statistical analysis was performed by Student t test, Wilcoxon rank-sum test, χ2 test or Fisher exact test. Results: There were 8.0% (23/287) patients with lymph nodes in PAFP, 3.8% (11/287) patients with PAFP lymph node metastases. Pathologically upstaged occurred in 1 patient due to the PAFP lymph node as the solitary metastatic lesion. Patients with lymph node metastases in PAFP presented higher preoperative PSA (M(IQR): 48.2(73.0) μg/L vs. 15.4(26.5) μg/L, Z=3.158, P=0.002), clinical T stage and N stage (Z=2.977, P=0.003; Z=2.780, P=0.005) and preoperative Gleason score (Z=2.205, P=0.027). Conclusions: Routine dissection of PAFP at RP and separately pathological analysis may allow more lymph nodes and lymph node metastases detection. More accurate pathological N stage may be acquired and consequently may improve the survival of patients by offering more appropriate adjuvant or salvage therapy.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Current guidelines recommend moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) for health benefit in adults. However, it is difficult to meet the recommended minimum MVPA in “oldest old” aged over 85. Although walking is simple and easy exercise for oldest old, research on the association between walking and mortality in oldest old are lacking.
Purpose
To investigate the association between walking and the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality among older adults aged 85 years and older.
Methods
7047 participants aged 85 or older underwent the Korean National Health Screening Program, including self-administered questionnaire for physical activity. Reported frequency per week of walking for at least 30 minutes increment was used to classify hours of walking per week. We computed multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios for walking and mutually adjusted for MVPA in relation to all-cause and cardiovascular mortality.
Results
The proportions of participants who engaged in walking, moderate- and vigorous-intensity physical activity were 42.5% (2996/7047), 14.7% (1037/7047) and 11.0% (773/7047), respectively. Only 7.6% (538/7047) of participants met the guidelines recommended minimum MVPA. Compared to inactive individuals, those who walked at least 1 hour per week had lower all-cause (HR 0.60 [95% CI, 0.50–0.74]) and cardiovascular mortality risk (HR 0.61 [95% CI, 0.42–0.89]). Walking 1 hour per week was still significant associated with reduction of risk for all-cause (HR 0.50 [95% CI, 0.40–0.61]) and cardiovascular mortality (HR 0.46 [95% CI, 0.30–0.70]) among participants who reported only walking without any MVPA.
Conclusions
1 hour a week of walking might be of benefit for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in aged over 85 years, even without MVPA. Promoting walking may be a way to help oldest old avoid inactivity and encourage an active lifestyle for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality risk reduction.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the source and the transmission chain of a cold-chain product associated COVID-19 epidemic caused by 2019-nCoV Delta variant in Beijing. Methods: Epidemiological investigation were used to verify the exposure points of the cases. Close contacts were traced from the exposure points, and human and environmental samples were collected for nucleic acid tests. Positive samples were analyzed by gene sequencing. Results: A total of 112 cases of COVID-19 were reported in the epidemic from January 18 to February 6, 2022 in Beijing. Except for 1 case was uncertain, there were epidemiological links among 111 cases. The source of infection was the packages of imported cold-chain products from Southeast Asia, which were harvested and stored in a local cold-storage in January 2021, and packaged and sent to the cold-storage A in A district in June 2021, and then sold in batches in cold-storage B in B district from January 2022. The first case was infected in the handling of positive frozen products, and then 77 cases occurred due to working, eating and living together with the index case in the cold-storage B, cold-storage C and restaurant D. Besides the cold-storage B, C and the restaurant D, there were 16 sub-transmission chains, resulting in additional 35 cases. Conclusion: The epidemic indicated that the risk of 2019-nCoV infection from imported cold-chain products contaminated by package and highlighted the importance to strengthen the management of cold-chain industry in future.

Abstract
Background Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disease with complex pathogenesis, poses a considerable threat to women’s health. Increasing evidence indicates that neutrophils play an important role in the development and progression of lupus. Methods Weighted correlation network analysis and single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) were used to analyse SLE expression data from a comprehensive gene expression database and identify modules associated with neutrophils. Thereafter, the biomarkers most closely related to neutrophils were identified. We reclassified SLE into two molecular subtypes based on the aforementioned biomarkers and evaluated cell infiltration, molecular mechanisms, and signature pathways in each subtype. Results The results showed significant differences in immunological characteristics between the two molecular subtypes of SLE. Hub genes were significantly upregulated in the NEUT-H subtype, and they may be associated with lupus activity. The GSEA revealed associations between our biomarkers and key metabolic pathways. Conclusions Our study provides not only a classification for patients with SLE but also new cell and gene targets for immunotherapy, as well as a new experimental paradigm to explore immunotherapy for other autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is suggested to be implicated in the development of cardiometabolic diseases. We conducted a Mendelian randomization (MR) study to assess potential causality for associations of RA with the risk of cardiometabolic diseases, including type 2 diabetes (T2D), coronary artery disease (CAD), and ischaemic stroke. METHOD Seventy independent single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with RA were identified as instrumental variables from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 58 284 European subjects. Summary-level data for the associations of the 70 genetic variants with T2D, CAD, and ischaemic stroke were taken from three GWASs with a total of 1 529 131 participants. Inverse-variance weighted (IVW) MR was used in the main analyses. RESULTS The main IVW MR analysis showed that genetically determined RA was associated with higher risks of T2D [odds ratio (OR): 1.04, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.02-1.05; p < 0.001] and CAD (OR: 1.02, 95% CI 1.00-1.03; p = 0.012), but not ischaemic stroke (OR: 1.00, 95% CI 0.99-1.02; p = 0.961). Sensitivity analyses with multiple MR methods confirmed these associations. MR-Egger regression showed no evidence of pleiotropy in the association between genetically determined RA and the risk of T2D, CAD, and ischaemic stroke. Leave-one-out sensitivity analysis showed that the association between genetically determined RA and the risk of T2D, CAD, and ischaemic stroke was not driven by any individual SNP. CONCLUSION Genetically determined RA was associated with increased risks of T2D and CAD, suggesting that RA plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of T2D and CAD.

Abstract
The nutritional components of fermented soybean meal (FSBM) vary because of the complex process of microbial fermentation. The objective of this study was to investigate the nutritional value of FSBM from two sources and explore the mode of actions of FSBM on the improvement of nutrient digestibility with the measurements of digestive enzymes and serum biomarkers. Eight weaned barrows (initial BW: 14.12 ± 0.24 kg) equipped with T-cannula in the distal ileum were allotted to a duplicated 4 × 4 Latin-square design with four experimental diets and four periods. Four experimental diets included a soybean meal control diet, two FSBM diets, and a nitrogen-free diet. The two sources of FSBM increased the contents of CP, amino acid and lactic acid, while decreased the levels of anti-nutritional factors, including glycinin, β-conglycinin and trypsin inhibitors. Compared to soybean meal control diet, both FSBM diets significantly increased the apparent and standardised ileal digestibility of CP and amino acids (P < 0.05), increased the activities of lipase, maltase and invertase in digesta (P < 0.05), increased total antioxidant capacity, activities of glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase, the levels of interleukin-4, IgA, IgG and IgM in serum (P < 0.05), while decreased the levels of diamine oxidase, malondialdehyde, interleukin-6, and interleukin-2 in serum (P < 0.05). Additionally, the standardised ileal digestibility of amino acids were highly correlated with the aforementioned digestive enzymes and health-related serum biomarkers. In summary, FSBM diets showed an improved nutritional value evidenced by the higher nutrient digestibility, which may be partially derived from its beneficial effects on intestinal integrity, anti-oxidative capacity and immune function.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the etiological and epidemiological characteristics of Vibrio cholerae in Beijing during 2015-2021 and provide evidence for the prevention and control of cholera. Methods: The V. cholerae strains isolated in Beijing during 2015-2021 were analyzed by serotyping and virulence genes detection. Pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) was performed for the molecular typing of the strains. Based on the collected epidemiological and clinical data of cholera cases,the epidemiological characteristics of cholera were analyzed by descriptive epidemiology method. Results: A total of 76 Vibrio cholerae O1 strains were isolated in Beijing during 2015-2021, including 61 strains from human, 10 strains from environment and 5 strains from seafood. The 76 strains consisted of 68 Ogawa strains and 8 Inaba strains. Six Ogawa strains isolated from sporadic cases carried ctxAB. After NotⅠ digestion, 76 strains were divided into 33 PFGE patterns. From 2015 to 2021, a total of 38 cholera epidemics were reported in Beijing, most of them were sporadic ones, accounting for 92.11% (35/38). A total of 45 cases were reported, and the cases occurred during June-September accounted for 97.78% (44/45). Cholera cases occurred in 9 districts of Beijing, and the cases reported in Chaoyang district accounted for 42.22% (19/45) and in Changping district accounted for 31.11% (14/45). The age of the cholera cases ranged from 19 to 63 years. Except for one case with unknown clinical symptoms, 44 cases had diarrhea symptoms with 84.09% (37/44) of the cases reporting diarrhea (3-9 times/day), followed by yellow watery stool (95.45%, 42/44), abdominal pain (68.18%, 30/44), nausea and vomiting (40.91%, 18/44) and fever (36.36%, 16/44). Conclusion: Vibrio cholerae strains isolated in Beijing during 2015-2021 were mainly O1 serotype Ogawa,most of which were non-toxigenic. The PFGE of the strains varied. Cholera epidemics occurred in 9 districts of Beijing, but most were sporadic ones with incidence peak during June-September.

Abstract
Following implantation of patient-derived xenograft (PDX) breast carcinomas from three separate individuals, 33/51 female NOD.Cg-Prkdcscid Il2rgtm1Wjl/SzJ (NSG) mice presented with progressive, unilateral to bilateral, ascending hindlimb paresis to paralysis. Mice were mildly dehydrated, in thin to poor body condition, with reduced to absent hindlimb withdrawal reflex and deep pain sensation. Microscopically, there was variable axonal swelling, vacuolation, and dilation of myelin sheaths within the ventral spinal cord and spinal nerve roots of the thoracolumbar and sacral spinal cord, as well as within corresponding sciatic nerves. Results of PCR screening of PDX samples obtained at necropsy and pooled environmental swabs from the racks housing affected animals were positive for lactate dehydrogenase-elevating virus (LDV). LDV is transmitted through animal-animal contact or commonly as a contaminant of biologic materials of mouse origin. Infection is associated with progressive degenerative myelopathy and neuropathy in strains of mice harboring endogenous retrovirus (AKR, C58), or in immunosuppressed strains (NOD-SCID, Foxn1nu), and can interfere with normal immune responses and alter engraftment and growth of xenograft tumors in immunosuppressed mice. This is the first reported series of LDV-induced poliomyelitis in NSG mice and should be recognized as a potentially significant confounder to biomedical studies utilizing immunodeficient xenograft models.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of imported COVID-19 cases and the effect of vaccination on virus load and disease severity of the cases in Beijing. Methods: The data of the imported COVID-19 cases in Beijing were collected from the National Notifiable Infectious Disease Reporting System of China Information for Disease Control and Prevention and Epidemiology investigation. The data were processed and analyzed by Excel 2010 and SPSS 22.0. Results: From June 1 to September 30, 2021, a total of 171 imported COVID-19 cases were reported in Beijing, of which 66.67% (114/171) were asymptomatic. The cases were mainly from the Philippines, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom and the Russian Federation, accounting for 67.84% (116/171). The male to female ratio of the cases was 2∶1 (114∶57). The median age M (Q1, Q3) of the cases was 28 (23, 36) years. The cases of Chinese accounted for 80.12% (137/171). The sequencing of the whole genome of the virus in 47 imported COVID-19 cases showed that the proportion of Delta variant was 76.60% (36/47). The COVID-19 vaccination coverage rate in the cases was 60.82% (104/171), but the full vaccination coverage rate was 53.80% (92/171). In the imported COVID-19 cases, 13.53% (23/170) were screened to be SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid positive on the day when they arrived in Beijing, and all the cases were positive for 2019-nCoV nucleic acid within 28 days. The severity of the disease was higher in the unvaccinated group than in the partially vaccinated group and fully vaccinated group (P<0.001). In the unvaccinated group, there were 1 severe case and 1 critical case. The median Ct values M (Q1, Q3) of N gene and ORFlab gene in unvaccinated group were 32.51 (23.23, 36.06) and 32.78 (24.00, 36.38), respectively. There was no significant difference in the median of double-gene Ct value between the partially vaccinated group and the fully vaccinated group. Conclusions: During the study period, most of the imported COVID-19 cases in Beijing were asymptomatic. No matter vaccinated or not, the viral loads in the COVID-19 cases were similar, but the vaccination could reduce the severity of the disease.
