Abstract
Annexin A2 (AnxA2), belonging to the annexin family, plays a crucial role in immune responses. In this study, the cDNA of the AnxA2 gene was identified in half-smooth tongue sole, Cynoglossus semilaevis. The transcript of AnxA2 gene in C. semilaevis (CsAnxA2) showed broad tissue distribution, with the highest expression level observed in the gut. CsAnxA2 expression was significantly up-regulated in the intestine, spleen, and kidney tissues following exposure to Shewanella algae. Immunohistochemical staining revealed that CsAnxA2 was predominantly expressed in epithelial cells and significantly elevated after S. algae challenge. Subcellular localization showed that CsAnxA2 was primarily localized in the cytoplasmic compartment. Moreover, proinflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-8 and IL-1β) exhibited significant upregulation after CsAnxA2 was overexpressed in vivo. One hundred and fifty-eight CsAnxA2-interacting proteins were captured in the intestinal tissue, showing the top two normalized abundance observed for actin beta (ACTB) and protein S100-A10 (p11). Fifty-four high abundance CsAnxA2-interacting proteins (HIPs) were primary enriched in ten pathways, with the top three significantly enriched pathways being Salmonella infection, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signaling pathway. These results provide valuable information for further investigation into the functional mechanism of AnxA2 in C. semilaevis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To detect the expression levels of LINC02446 and S100B in serum of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and explore their values as diagnostic and prognostic indicators for TBI. METHOD Abnormal expressed RNAs in brain injury were screened from the dataset GSE1131475. Serums were collected from moderate to severe TBI patients at 1-3 and 4-12 h post injury. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the expression levels of LINC02446 and S100B in serum. The Glasgow Outcome Scale was used for prognostic evaluation. The diagnostic and prognostic efficacy of LINC02446 and S100B in TBI was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. RESULT The serum expression levels of LINC02446 and S100B in the TBI group were significantly increased. The expression levels of LINC02446 and S100B in the severe TBI group were significantly higher than those in the mild TBI group. ROC curve analysis showed that the combination of LINC02446 and S100B can distinguish TBI patients from healthy controls, as well as mild TBI from moderate to severe TBI. At the 6-month follow-up, the expression levels of LINC02446 and S100B in TBI patients with poor prognosis were significantly higher than those in patients with good prognosis, and ROC results showed their differentiation value. Moreover, the expression level of LINC02446 at 0-3 h can serve as an independent prognostic factor for poor prognosis. CONCLUSION Serum LINC02446 and S100B hold clinical application value in the diagnosis and prognosis of TBI and are expected to become new potential biomarkers.

Abstract
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection involving the skin is relatively rare. We herein report a case involving a man in his late 70s with positive hepatitis B surface antigen who presented with multiform skin lesions, including a papuloid rash, papular urticaria, and purpura. The patient had taken no antiviral drugs for nearly 13 years but had recently developed severe liver injury. Laboratory examination revealed positive CMV immunoglobulin M, CMV polymerase chain reaction result of 1.09 × 102 copies/mL, and a slightly decreased CD4+ cell count; however, the CD8+ T-cell count was within the normal range. A skin biopsy was performed in the region of the papular eruption on the left inner thigh, and the pathologic findings were consistent with CMV infection. After admission, the patient began a combination of antiviral therapy for hepatitis B virus and CMV. After 3 weeks of treatment, the patient was discharged with skin lesions, and his liver function recovered.

Abstract
Tanoak (Notholithocarpus densiflorus) is an evergreen tree in the Fagaceae family found in California and southern Oregon. Historically, tanoak acorns were an important food source for Native American tribes and the bark was used extensively in the leather tanning process. Long considered a disjunct relictual element of the Asian stone oaks (Lithocarpus spp.), phylogenetic analysis has determined that the tanoak is an example of convergent evolution. Tanoaks are deeply divergent from oaks (Quercus) of the Pacific Northwest and comprise a new genus with a single species. These trees are highly susceptible to 'sudden oak death' (SOD), a plant pathogen (Phytophthora ramorum) that has caused widespread mortality of tanoaks. Here, we set out to assemble the genome and perform comparative studies among a number of individuals that demonstrated varying levels of susceptibility to SOD. First, we sequenced and de novo assembled a draft reference genome of N. densiflorus using co-barcoded library processing methods and an MGI DNBSEQ-G400 sequencer. To increase the contiguity of the final assembly, we also sequenced Oxford Nanopore (ONT) long reads to 30X coverage. To our knowledge, the draft genome reported here is one of the more contiguous and complete genomes of a tree species published to date, with a contig N50 of ∼1.2 Mb, a scaffold N50 of ∼2.1 Mb, and a complete gene score of 95.5% through BUSCO analysis. In addition, we sequenced 11 genetically distinct individuals and mapped these onto the draft reference genome enabling the discovery of almost 25 million single nucleotide polymorphisms and ∼4.4 million small insertions and deletions. Finally, using co-barcoded data we were able to generate complete haplotype coverage of all 11 genomes.

Abstract
Reducing hepatitis B virus (HBV) mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) is a fundamental step toward the HBV elimination goal. The multicentred, multilevel SHIELD program aimed to use an intense intervention package to reduce HBV MTCT in China. This study was conducted in diverse health settings across China, encompassing 30,109 pregnant women from 178 hospitals, part of the interim analysis of stage II of the SHIELD program, and 8,642 pregnant women from 160 community-level health facilities in stage III of the SHIELD program. The study found that the overall MTCT rate was 0.23% (39 of 16,908; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.16-0.32%) in stage II and 0.23% (12 of 5,290; 95% CI: 0.12-0.40%) in stage III. The MTCT rate was lower among participants who were compliant with the interventions (stage II: 0.16% (95% CI: 0.10-0.26%); stage III: 0.03% (95% CI: 0.00-0.19%)) than among those who were noncompliant (3.16% (95% CI: 1.94-4.85%); 1.91% (95% CI: 0.83-3.73%); P < 0.001). Our findings demonstrate that the comprehensive interventions among HBV-infected pregnant women were feasible and effective in dramatically reducing MTCT.

Abstract
AIM To develop and validate a diagnostic model utilising machine-learning algorithms that differentiates lepidic predominant adenocarcinoma (LPA) from other pathological subtypes in patients with pure ground-glass nodules (pGGNs). MATERIALS AND METHODS This bicentric study was conducted across two medical centres and included 151 patients diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma based on histopathological confirmation of pGGNs. The training cohort consisted of 99 patients from Institution 1, while the test cohort included 52 patients from Institution 2. Radiomics features were extracted from both tumours and the 2 mm peritumoural parenchyma. The tumoural and peritumoural radiomics were designated as Modeltumoural and Modelperitumoural, respectively. The diagnostic efficacy of various models was evaluated through the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Subsequently, a machine-learning-based prediction model that combined Modeltumoural, Modelperitumoural, and Modelclinical-radiological was developed to differentiate LPA from other pathological subtypes in patients with pGGNs. RESULTS Modeltumoural achieved area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.762 and 0.783 in the training and validation sets, respectively. Modelperitumoural attained AUCs of 0.742 and 0.667, and Modelclinical-radiological generated an AUC of 0.727 and 0.739 in the training and validation sets, respectively. Among the machine-learning models evaluated, gradient boosting machines demonstrated the best diagnostic efficacy, with accuracy, AUC, F1 score, and log loss values of 0.885, 0.956, 0.943, and 0.260, respectively. CONCLUSION The combined model based on machine learning that incorporated tumour and peritumoural parenchyma, as well as clinical and imaging characteristics, may offer benefits in assessing the pathological subtype of pGGNs.

Abstract
Microorganisms are of great significance for arsenic (As) toxicity amelioration in plants as soil fertility is directly affected by microbes. In this study, we innovatively explored the effects of indigenous cyanobacteria (Leptolyngbya sp. XZMQ) and plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) (Bacillus XZM) on the growth and As absorption of sunflower plants from As-contaminated soil. Results showed that single inoculation and co-inoculation stimulated the growth of sunflower plants (Helianthus annuus L.), enhanced enzyme activities, and reduced As contents. In comparison to the control group, single innoculation of microalgae and bacteria in the rhizosphere increased extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) by 21.99% and 14.36%, respectively, whereas co-inoculation increased them by 35%. Compared with the non-inoculated group, As concentration in the roots, stems and leaves of sunflower plants decreased by 38%, 70% and 41%, respectively, under co-inoculation conditions. Inoculation of Leptolyngbya sp. XZMQ significantly increased the abundance of nifH in soil, while co-inoculation of cyanobacteria and Bacillus XZM significantly increased the abundance of cbbL, indicating that the coupling of Leptolyngbya sp. XZMQ and Bacillus XZM could stimulate the activity of nitrogen-fixing and carbon-fixing microorganisms and increased soil fertility. Moreover, this co-inoculation increased the enzyme activities (catalase, sucrase, urease) in the rhizosphere soil of sunflower and reduced the toxic effect of As on plant. Among these, the activities of catalase, peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase decreased. Meanwhile, co-inoculation enables cyanobacteria and bacteria to attach and entangle in the root area of the plant and develop as symbiotic association, which reduced As toxicity. Co-inoculation increased the abundance of aioA, arrA, arsC, and arsM genes in soil, especially the abundance of microorganisms with aioA and arsM, which reduced the mobility and bioavailability of As in soil, hence, reduced the absorption of As by plants. This study provides a theoretical basis for soil microbial remediation in mining areas.

Abstract
Background Postpartum depression (PPD) is a type of depressive episode related to parents after childbirth, which causes a variety of symptoms not only for parents but also affects the development of children. The causal relationship between potential risk factors and PPD remains comprehensively elucidated. Methods Linkage disequilibrium score regression (LDSC) analysis was conducted to screen the heritability of each instrumental variant (IV) and to calculate the genetic correlations between effective causal factors and PPD. To search for the causal effect of multiple potential risk factors on the incidence of PPD, random effects of the inverse variance weighted (IVW) method were applied. Sensitivity analyses, including weighted median, MR-Egger regression, Cochrane's Q test, and MR Pleiotropy Residual Sum and Outlier (MR-PRESSO), were performed to detect potential Mendelian randomization (MR) assumption violations. Multivariable MR (MVMR) was conducted to control potential multicollinearity. Results A total of 40 potential risk factors were investigated in this study. LDSC regression analysis reported a significant genetic correlation of potential traits with PPD. MR analysis showed that higher body mass index (BMI) (Benjamini and Hochberg (BH) corrected p = 0.05), major depression (MD) (BH corrected p = 5.04E-19), and schizophrenia (SCZ) (BH corrected p = 1.64E-05) were associated with the increased risk of PPD, whereas increased age at first birth (BH corrected p = 2.11E-04), older age at first sexual intercourse (BH corrected p = 3.02E-15), increased average total household income before tax (BH corrected p = 4.57E-02), and increased years of schooling (BH corrected p = 1.47E-11) led to a decreased probability of PPD. MVMR analysis suggested that MD (p = 3.25E-08) and older age at first birth (p = 8.18E-04) were still associated with an increased risk of PPD. Conclusion In our MR study, we found multiple risk factors, including MD and younger age at first birth, to be deleterious causal risk factors for PPD.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of utidelone plus capecitabine for advanced first-line versus second-line or above therapy in metastatic breast cancer patients who had previously received anthracycline and taxane. At the same time, we compared the efficacy of utidelone plus capecitabine and vinorelbine plus cisplatin in advanced first-line treatment of metastatic breast cancer. Patients and methods A retrospective cohort of 11 patients with metastatic breast cancer previously treated with anthracycline and taxane (including neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapies) for advanced first-line with utidelone plus capecitabine, 32 patients treated with second-line or above, and 60 patients with vinorelbine plus cisplatin between October 2011 and August 2022 was collected. The first and second groups were treated with utidelone plus capecitabine, and the third group was treated with vinorelbine plus cisplatin. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS), and secondary endpoints were overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and treatment safety. Results By 03/31/2023, median PFS reached 11.70 months (95 % CI 0.093-0.141) in utidelone plus capecitabine group in the advanced first-line therapy, compared to 5.60 months (95 % CI 0.025-0.079) in the second-line or above therapy [HR 0.42, (95 % CI 0.226-0.787), P = 0.0077]. In utidelone plus capecitabine, the median OS was not reached in the advanced first-line therapy, with a mean overall survival of 23.16 months (95 % CI 0.198-0.265); whereas the median OS in the second-line or above therapy was 19.50 months (95 % CI 0.083-0.307), with a mean overall survival of 16.89 months (95 % CI 0.136-0.202) [HR 0.26, (95 % CI 0.098-0.678), P = 0.0495]. The ORR for advanced first-line therapy was 27.27 % (95%CI 0.060, 0.610) compared with 15.63 % (95%CI 0.053, 0.328) for second-line or above. In advanced first-line therapy, utidelone plus capecitabine was superior to vinorelbine plus cisplatin with a median PFS of 6.12 months (95 % CI 0.051-0.072) [HR 0.49, (95 % CI 0.286-0.839), P = 0.0291]. Compared with utidelone plus capecitabine, the median OS in vinorelbine plus cisplatin advanced first-line therapy group was 35.37 months (95 % CI 0.258-0.449), and the mean overall survival was 40.79 months (95 % CI 0.315-0.501) [HR 0.54, (95 % CI 0.188-1.568), P = 0.2587]. The ORR for vinorelbine plus cisplatin was 18.33 % (95 % CI 0.095, 0.304). The most common adverse events in our study were neurological toxicity, hand-foot syndrome, hematological toxicity, gastrointestinal toxicity, and hepatic and renal function abnormalities. There were no deaths due to adverse effects during the utidelone plus capecitabine treatment period. Conclusions In MBC, advanced first-line therapy with utidelone plus capecitabine resulted in more favorable PFS, OS, and ORR than second-line or above therapy. In advanced first-line therapy, utidelone plus capecitabine had superior PFS, and ORR compared with vinorelbine plus cisplatin. This study concludes that utidelone plus capecitabine is a more valuable chemotherapy option in advanced first-line MBC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A pan-genotypic and effective treatment regimen for patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection remains an unmet medical need in China. Alfosbuvir is a novel potent HCV NS5B polymerase inhibitor in development for the treatment of chronic HCV infection. We conducted a phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of alfosbuvir in combination with daclatasvir in Chinese patients with HCV infection. METHODS All patients received 600 mg alfosbuvir tablets plus 60 mg daclatasvir tablets once daily for 12 weeks. The primary endpoint was sustained virological response 12 weeks after the end of treatment (SVR12). A follow-up visit was done at week 4 and 12, and those who achieved SVR12 were followed up at post-treatment week 24. RESULTS Of the 326 patients who received at least one dose of the study drug, 320 (98.2% [95% confidence interval (CI): 96.5%-99.5%]) achieved sustained virological response at post-treatment week 12 (SVR12), which was superior to the historical SVR12 rate of 88% (p < 0.0001). The SVR12 rates were similar regardless of most baseline characteristics. The most common adverse event (AE) (≥ 10%) was hypercholesterolemia. Serious adverse events (SAEs) were reported in 25 (7.7%) patients, none of which was judged to be related to the study drug. The majority of AEs were mild to moderate in severity. CONCLUSIONS Alfosbuvir plus daclatasvir for 12 weeks was highly effective and safe in Chinese patients infected with HCV genotype 1, 2, 3, or 6, suggesting that this regimen could be a promising option for HCV treatment in China irrespective of genotype.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the prognostic factors of survival and develop a predictive nomogram model for elderly GBM patients. METHODS Elderly patients (> = 65 years) with histologically diagnosed GBM were extracted from the SEER database. Survival analysis of overall survival (OS) was performed by Kaplan-Meier analysis. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to determine independent prognostic factors and these factors were used to further construct the nomogram model. RESULTS A total of 9068 elderly GBM patients (5122 males and 3946 females) were included, with a median age of 72 years (65-96 years). All patients were divided randomly into the training group (n = 6044) and the validation group (n = 3024) by a ratio of 2:1. Cox regression analyses on OS showed eight independent prognostic factors (race, age, tumor side, tumor size, metastasis, surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy) in the training cohort. Also, seven variables (except for race) were identified on CSS in the training group. By comprising these variables, the nomogram models on OS and CSS for predicting the 6-month, 1-year, and 2-year survival probability were constructed and exhibited moderate consistency, respectively. Then, they could be validated well in the validation cohort and by C-index, time-dependent ROC curve, calibration plot, and DCA curve. CONCLUSIONS Nomogram models on OS and CSS could provide an applicable tool to predict the survival probability and provide clinical references regarding treatment strategies and prognosis.

Abstract
Biological soil crusts (BSCs) are a useful tool for immobilization of metal(loid)s in mining areas. Yet, the typical functional microorganisms involved in promoting the fast development of BSCs and their impacts on arsenic(As) contaminated soil remain unverified. In this study, As-contaminated soil was inoculated with indigenous Chlorella thermophila SM01 (C. thermophila SM01), Leptolyngbya sp. XZMQ, isolated from BSCs in high As-contaminated areas and plant growth-promoting (PGP) bacteria (Bacillus XZM) to construct BSCs in different manners. After 45 days of ex-situ culture experiment, Leptolyngbya sp. XZMQ and bacteria could form obvious BSCs. Compared to single-inoculated microalgae, the co-inoculation of Leptolyngbya sp. XZMQ and Bacillus XZM increased soil pH and water content by 10% and 26%, respectively, while decreasing soil EC and density by 19% and 14%, respectively. The soil catalase, alkaline phosphatase, sucrase, and urease activities were also increased by 30.53%, 96.24%, 154.19%, and 272.17%, respectively. The co-inoculation of Leptolyngbya sp. XZMQ and Bacillus XZM drove the formation of BSCs by producing large amounts of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS). The three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy (3D-EEM) analysis showed that induced BSCs increased As immobilization by enhancing the contents of tryptophan and tyrosine substances, fulvic acid, and humic acid in EPS. The presence of the -NH2 and -COOH functional groups in tryptophan residues were determined using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that there were iron (hydrogen) oxides in BSCs, which could form ternary complexes with humic acid and As, thereby increasing the adsorption of As. Therefore, BSCs formed by co-inoculation of Leptolyngbya sp. XZMQ and Bacillus XZM increased the immobilization of As, thereby reducing the content of soluble As in the environment. In summary, our findings innovatively provided a new method for the remediation of As-contaminated soil in mining areas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognosis of diffuse midline glioma (DMG) patients with H3K27M (H3K27M-DMG) alterations is poor; however, a model that encourages accurate prediction of prognosis for such lesions on an individual basis remains elusive. We aimed to construct an H3K27M-DMG survival model based on DeepSurv to predict patient prognosis. METHODS Patients recruited from a single center were used for model training, and patients recruited from another center were used for external validation. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to select features. Four machine learning models were constructed, and the consistency index (C-index) and integrated Brier score (IBS) were calculated. We used the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUC) curve to assess the accuracy of predicting 6-month, 12-month, 18-month and 24-month survival rates. A heatmap of feature importance was used to explain the results of the four models. RESULTS We recruited 113 patients in the training set and 23 patients in the test set. We included tumor size, tumor location, Karnofsky Performance Scale (KPS) score, enhancement, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy for model training. The accuracy of DeepSurv prediction is highest among the four models, with C-indexes of 0.862 and 0.811 in the training and external test sets, respectively. The DeepSurv model had the highest AUC values at 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months, which were 0.970 (0.919-1), 0.950 (0.877-1), 0.939 (0.845-1), and 0.875 (0.690-1), respectively. We designed an interactive interface to more intuitively display the survival probability prediction results provided by the DeepSurv model. CONCLUSION The DeepSurv model outperforms traditional machine learning models in terms of prediction accuracy and robustness, and it can also provide personalized treatment recommendations for patients. The DeepSurv model may provide decision-making assistance for patients in formulating treatment plans in the future.

Abstract
PURPOSE Disorders on the autism spectrum have characteristics that can manifest as difficulties with communication, executive functioning, daily living, and more. These challenges can be mitigated with early identification. However, diagnostic criteria has changed from DSM-IV to DSM-5, which can make diagnosing a disorder on the autism spectrum complex. We evaluated machine learning to classify individuals as having one of three disorders of the autism spectrum under DSM-IV, or as non-spectrum. METHODS We employed machine learning to analyze retrospective data from 38,560 individuals. Inputs encompassed clinical, demographic, and assessment data. RESULTS The algorithm achieved AUROCs ranging from 0.863 to 0.980. The model correctly classified 80.5% individuals; 12.6% of individuals from this dataset were misclassified with another disorder on the autism spectrum. CONCLUSION Machine learning can classify individuals as having a disorder on the autism spectrum or as non-spectrum using minimal data inputs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Suicidal ideation and behaviour are potential outcomes of workplace bullying. This review aimed to determine the extent of the association between workplace bullying and suicidal ideation and behaviour. STUDY DESIGN The study incorporated a systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement was followed to conduct a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis. A combination of subject terms and free words was used to search nine electronic databases. Two reviewers independently screened articles and extracted information according to the inclusion criteria. A meta-analysis was performed with averaged weighted correlations across samples using the STATA software (version 16.0) from pooled estimates of the main results from all studies. RESULTS In total, 25 articles of high or medium quality were included in the systematic review; 15 of these were included in the meta-analysis. The prevalence of suicidal ideation and behaviour was 18% and 4%, respectively. Individuals who experienced workplace bullying had 2.03-times and 2.67-times higher odds of reporting suicidal ideation and behaviour, respectively, after adjustment for confounding factors. Moderating and mediating factors may help reduce the risk of suicidal ideation and behaviour for individuals experiencing workplace bullying. CONCLUSION This study indicated that exposure to workplace bullying significantly increased the risk of suicidal ideation and behaviour.

Abstract
BACKGROUND H3K27M mutation status significantly affects the prognosis of patients with diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs), but this tumor presents a high risk of pathological acquisition. We aimed to construct a fully automated model for predicting the H3K27M alteration status of DMGs based on deep learning using whole-brain MRI. METHODS DMG patients from West China Hospital of Sichuan University (WCHSU; n = 200) and Chengdu Shangjin Nanfu Hospital (CSNH; n = 35) who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria from February 2016 to April 2022 were enrolled as the training and external test sets, respectively. To adapt the model to the human head MRI scene, we use normal human head MR images to pretrain the model. The classification and tumor segmentation tasks are naturally related, so we conducted cotraining for the two tasks to enable information interaction between them and improve the accuracy of the classification task. RESULTS The average classification accuracies of our model on the training and external test sets was 90.5% and 85.1%, respectively. Ablation experiments showed that pretraining and cotraining could improve the prediction accuracy and generalization performance of the model. In the training and external test sets, the average areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROCs) were 94.18% and 87.64%, and the average areas under the precision-recall curve (AUPRC) were 93.26% and 85.4%. CONCLUSIONS The developed model achieved excellent performance in predicting the H3K27M alteration status in DMGs, and its good reproducibility and generalization were verified in the external dataset.

Abstract
Background and Aims Tenofovir amibufenamide (TMF) is a novel phosphoramidated prodrug of tenofovir with noninferior efficacy and better bone and renal safety to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) in 48 weeks of treatment. Here, we update 96-week comparison results. Methods Patients with chronic hepatitis B were assigned (2:1) to receive either 25 mg TMF or 300 mg TDF with matching placebo for 96 weeks. The virological suppression was defined as HBV DNA levels <20 IU/mL at week 96. Safety was evaluated thoroughly with focusing on bone, renal, and metabolic parameters. Results Virological suppression rates at week 96 were similar between TMF and TDF group in both HBeAg-positive and HBeAg-negative populations. Noninferior efficacy was maintained in the pooled population, while it was first achieved in patients with HBV DNA ≥7 or 8 log10 IU/mL at baseline. Non-indexed estimated glomerular filtration rate for renal safety assessment was adopted, while a smaller decline of which was seen in the TMF group than in the TDF group (p=0.01). For bone mineral density, patients receiving TMF displayed significantly lower reduction levels in the densities of spine, hip, and femur neck at week 96 than those receiving TDF. In addition, the lipid parameters were stable after week 48 in all groups while weight change still showed the opposite trend. Conclusions TMF maintained similar efficacy at week 96 compared with TDF with continued superior bone and renal safety profiles (NCT03903796).

Abstract
H3 K27M-mutant diffuse midline glioma (H3 K27M-mt DMG) is a rare, highly invasive tumor with a poor prognosis. The prognostic factors of H3 K27M-mt DMG have not been fully identified, and there is no clinical prediction model for it. This study aimed to develop and validate a prognostic model for predicting the probability of survival in patients with H3 K27M-mt DMG. Patients diagnosed with H3 K27M-mt DMG in the West China Hospital from January 2016 to August 2021 were included. Cox proportional hazard regression was used for survival assessment, with adjustment for known prognostic factors. The final model was established using the patient data of our center as the training cohort and data from other centers for external independent verification. One hundred and five patients were ultimately included in the training cohort, and 43 cases from another institution were used as the validation cohort. The factors influencing survival probability in the prediction model included age, preoperative KPS score, radiotherapy and Ki-67 expression level. The adjusted consistency indices of the Cox regression model in internal bootstrap validation at 6, 12, and 18 months were 0.776, 0.766, and 0.764, respectively. The calibration chart showed high consistency between the predicted and observed results. The discrimination in external verification was 0.785, and the calibration curve showed good calibration ability. We identified the risk factors that affect the prognosis of H3 K27M-mt DMG patients and then established and validated a diagnostic model for predicting the survival probability of these patients.

Abstract
In combination with allopurinol, tranilast is used as an urate transporter 1 (URAT1) inhibitor for the treatment of hyperuricemia, but its structure-activity relationship concerning URAT1 inhibitory activity is rarely studied. In this paper, analogs 1-30 were designed and synthesized using scaffold hopping strategy on the basis of tranilast and the privileged scaffold indole. Then, URAT1 activity was evaluated using 14C-uric acid uptake assay with HEK293-URAT1 overexpressing cells. Compared with tranilast (inhibitory rate = 44.9% at 10 μM), most compounds displayed apparent inhibitory effects, ranging from 40.0% to 81.0% at 10 μM on URAT1. Surprisingly, along with the bringing in of a cyano group at the 5-position of indole ring, compounds 26 and 28-30 exerted xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitory activity. In particular, compound 29 presented potency on URAT1 (48.0% at 10 μM) and XO (IC50 = 1.01 μM). Molecular simulation analysis revealed that the basic structure of compound 29 had an affinity with URAT1, and XO. Furthermore, compound 29 demonstrated a significant hypouricemic effect in a potassium oxonate-induced hyperuricemia rat model at an oral dose of 10 mg/kg during in vivo tests. In summary, tranilast analog 29 was identified as a potent dual-target inhibitor of URAT1 and XO, and a promising lead compound for further investigation.

Abstract
Liquid biopsy techniques based on deep sequencing of plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) could detect the low-frequency somatic mutations and provide an accurate diagnosis for many cancers. However, for brain gliomas, reliable performance of these techniques currently requires obtaining cfDNA from patients' cerebral spinal fluid, which is cumbersome and risky. Here we report a liquid biopsy method based on sequencing of plasma cfDNA fragments carrying 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) using selective chemical labeling (hMe-Seal). We first constructed a dataset including 180 glioma patients and 229 non-glioma controls. We found marked concordance between cfDNA hydroxymethylome and the aberrant transcriptome of the underlying gliomas. Functional analysis also revealed overrepresentation of the differentially hydroxymethylated genes (DhmGs) in oncogenic and neural pathways. After splitting our dataset into training and test cohort, we showed that a penalized logistic model constructed with training set DhmGs could distinguish glioma patients from healthy controls in both our test set (AUC = 0.962) and an independent dataset (AUC = 0.930) consisting of 111 gliomas and 111 controls. Additionally, the DhmGs between gliomas with mutant and wild-type isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) could be used to train a cfDNA predictor of the IDH mutation status of the underlying tumor (AUC = 0.816), and patients with predicted IDH mutant gliomas had significantly better outcome (P = .01). These results indicate that our plasma cfDNA 5hmC sequencing method could obtain glioma-specific signals, which may be used to noninvasively detect these patients and predict the aggressiveness of their tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The current molecular classifications cannot completely explain the polarized malignant biological behavior of low-grade gliomas (LGGs), especially for tumor recurrence. Therefore, we tried to identify suspicious hub genes related to tumor recurrence in LGGs. METHODS In this study, we constructed a gene-miRNA-lncRNA co-expression network for LGGs by a weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). GDCRNATools and the WGCNA R package were mainly used in data analysis. RESULTS Sequencing data from 502 LGG patients were analyzed in this study. Compared with recurrent glioma tissues, we identified 774 differentially expressed (DE) mRNAs, 49 DE miRNAs, and 129 DE lncRNAs in primary LGGs and ultimately determined that the expression of MKLN1 was related to tumor recurrence in LGG. CONCLUSION This study identified the potential biomarkers for the pathogenesis and recurrence of LGGs and proposed that MKLN1 could be a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract
Prognostic prediction of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in patients is crucial in clinical decision and health care policy making. This study aimed to develop and validate prediction models for in-hospital mortality after severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI). We developed and validated logistic regression (LR), LASSO regression, and machine learning (ML) algorithms including support vector machines (SVM) and XGBoost models. Fifty-four candidate predictors were included. Model performance was expressed in terms of discrimination (C-statistic) and calibration (intercept and slope). For model development, 2804 patients with sTBI in the Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research in TBI (CENTER-TBI) China Registry study were included. External validation was performed in 1113 patients with sTBI in the CENTER-TBI European Registry study. XGBoost achieved high discrimination in mortality prediction, and it outperformed logistic and LASSO regression. The XGBoost model established in this study also outperformed prediction models currently available, including the International Mission for Prognosis and Analysis of Clinical Trials (IMPACT) core and International Mission for Prognosis and Analysis of Clinical Trials (CRASH) basic models. When including 54 variables, XGBoost and SVM reached C-statistics of 0.87 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.81-0.92) and 0.85 (95% CI: 0.79-0.90) at internal validation, and 0.88 (95% CI: 0.87-0.88) and 0.86 (95% CI: 0.85-0.87) at external validation, respectively. A simplified version of XGBoost and SVM using 26 variables selected by recursive feature elimination (RFE) reached C-statistics of 0.87 (95% CI: 0.82-0.92) and 0.86 (95% CI: 0.80-0.91) at internal validation, and 0.87 (95% CI: 0.87-0.88) and 0.87 (95% CI: 0.86-0.87) at external validation, respectively. However, when the number of variables included decreased, the difference between ML and LR diminished. All the prediction models can be accessed via a web-based calculator. Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, age, pupillary light reflex, Injury Severity Score (ISS) for brain region, and the presence of acute subdural hematoma were the five strongest predictors for mortality prediction. The study showed that ML techniques such as XGBoost may capture information hidden in demographic and clinical predictors of patients with sTBI and yield more precise predictions compared with LR approaches.

Abstract
Biocrust was widely used for the immobilization and removal of arsenic (As) in drainage systems of rice fields and mining areas. In this study, the role of an indigenous cyanobacteria (Leptolyngbya sp. XZMQ) was explored in the bioremediation of As-contaminated farmland and tailing soil. After 80 d of inoculation with cyanobacteria, total As (As(T)) accumulated in the cyanobacterial crust of farmland and tailing soil was 279.89 mg kg-1 and 269.57 mg kg-1, respectively, and non-EDTA exchangeable fraction was the major fraction of it. The As(T) in farmland and tailing soil of micro-environment decreased by 10.76% and 12.73%, respectively. Meanwhile, the available As (As(a)) decreased by 21.25% and 27.65%, respectively. The XRD results showed that hematite and SiO2 existed in cyanobacterial crust of farmland and tailing soil. FTIR spectra indicated that the adsorption of As in cyanobacterial crust was mediated by OH and CO. After inoculation of Leptolyngbya sp. XZMQ, in subcrust soil, As biotransformation gene aioA was the most abundant, followed by arsM. The dominant phyla of soil biota were Proteobacteria, Cyanobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Bacteroiota, which could play critical roles in shaping aioA and arsM harboring microbe communities in soil. Redundancy analysis (RDA) showed that soil organic carbon (OC), pH, and chlorophyll a (Chl a) were the most important environmental factors in altering soil bacterial communities. Correlation analysis showed the Leptolyngbya had a positive correlation with Chl a, effective nitrogen (N(a)), electrical conductivity (EC), OC, pH in the soil, respectively, while it had a significant negative correlation with As(a), As(III) and As(T). These results emphasized on the significance of cyanobacteria in the behavior of As in mine soils and offered a promising strategy for bioremediation of As-contaminated soil in the mining area.

Abstract
According to statistics, the rate of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is still high in China, and the mortality of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is also high. In recent years, studies on the fecal flora of patients with HBV related ACLF have found that intestinal microecology affects the occurrence, development, and prognosis of HBV related ACLF. However, fecal flora cannot completely replace the whole intestinal microecology, and duodenal mucosal microecology may be a new research direction. This review discusses the influence of duodenal mucosal flora on the clinical outcome of HBV-ACLF with regard to mechanism, physiology, and anatomical characteristics.

Abstract
Abstract
PURPOSE
High-grade glioblastoma (HGG) was highly malignant and had a poor prognosis, with an overall median survival time of only 15 months. Tumor-Treating Fields (TTFields) has been approved for the newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM), and more clinical evidence is needed for its use in HGG. The aim of this study was to analyze the efficacy and safety of TTFields in patients with HGG in our center.
METHODS
We analyzed baseline characteristics, efficacy, and safety data of 27 newly diagnosed HGG patients treated with TTFields for at least four weeks from January 2020 to February 2022 at West China Hospital of Sichuan University. All the pathological grades were diagnosed based on the 2021 World Health Organization Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System (2021 WHO CNS5) criteria.
RESULTS
Twenty-one patients (77.78%) were diagnosed as grade 4. Among them, the percentage of gross total resection was 81.48%, and MGMT promoter methylation was 51.85%. The median interval from surgery to TTFields initiation of treatment was 2.47 months (95% CI, 1.47-10.37). The median follow-up time was 12.47 months (95% CI, 8.6-15.03). The 12-month PFS rate and 12-month OS rate were 70.73% and 90.24%, respectively. Median PFS and OS have not been reached. The median compliance of patients wearing TTFields was as high as 95%, and their associated adverse events were patch-induced rash and ulcers, all of which were grade 1 ~ 2.
CONCLUSIONS
This study is the first to define HGG patients with the 2021WHO CNS5. TTFields were observed in this retrospective analysis to improve patients’ 12-month PFS rate and OS rate. Adherence was much higher than that reported in clinical studies, and safety remained good. More extended Survival data would be updated by further follow-up.

Abstract
The World Health Organization (WHO) has set the goal of eliminating hepatitis as a threat to public health by 2030. Blocking mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of hepatitis B virus (HBV) is not only the key to eliminating viral hepatitis, but also a hot issue in the field of hepatitis B prevention and treatment. To standardize the clinical management of preventing MTCT of HBV and achieve zero HBV infection among infants, the Chinese Foundation for Hepatitis Prevention and Control organized experts to compile a management algorithm for prevention of MTCT of HBV based on the latest research progress and guidelines, including 10 steps of pregnancy management and postpartum follow-up, among which screening, antiviral treatment, and infant immunization are its core components.

Abstract
Nanoscale pyrazolate-based coordination polymers (CPs) are becoming increasingly popular as electrocatalysts owing to their customizable compositions and structures. However, using them for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is highly challenging due to their unsatisfactory catalytic efficiency and relatively low stability. Herein, a simple one-step solvothermal process was employed for the fabrication of polycrystalline nickel-pyrazolate [Ni(Pz)] with an unusual lamellar nanorod-assembled microsphere morphology for the first time using ethanol as a green organic solvent via controlling other physical parameters. Meanwhile, the Ni(Pz) structure and morphology are investigated to derive its formation process following the different monomeric feed ratios relying on the metal/ligand interactions of CP. Shaping the Ni(Pz) electrocatalyst in well-oriented lamellar nanorod-assembled microspheres brings the advantage of porosity and high specific surface area, which expedites mass/charge transport and contact with the electrolyte as well as creates less tortuous pathways for charge distribution, thus improving the charge homogeneity. These high-class structural features and polycrystalline nature of Ni(Pz)-E-PVP facilitate amazing catalytic OER activity with a low overpotential of 290 mV at 10 mA cm-2 and a Tafel slope of only 94 mV dec-1 beyond the yardstick material (i.e., RuO2) in alkaline solution. A suite of measurements, entailing X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations, suggest that the rich Ni-N4 moieties in Ni(Pz)-E-PVP are central species providing adsorption sites for OER intermediates. This facile protocol is prophesied to commence the imminent development of noble metal-free, effective, and low-priced electrocatalysts for OER.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Entecavir (ETV) is a potent and selective nucleotide analog with significant activity against hepatitis B virus (HBV). ETV maleate is a derivative compound of ETV and was reported to have an efficacy and safety profile that is comparable to ETV (Baraclude) when used in Chinese patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) in phase III clinical trials (Clinical Trials.gov number, NCT01926288) at weeks 48, 96, and 144.
AIM To investigate the antiviral potency and safety of ETV maleate at week 192 in Chinese CHB patients predominantly genotyped B or C.
METHODS In this double-blind study, we randomly assigned patients to receive 0.5 mg/d ETV (Group A) or ETV maleate (Group B) (ratio, 1:1), each with a placebo tablet for 48 wk. Then, all patients received open-label treatment with 0.5 mg/d ETV maleate starting at week 49. The primary efficacy endpoint was the reduction in HBV DNA levels from baseline. Secondary endpoints included the proportion of patients with undetectable HBV DNA (< 20 IU/mL), serologic response, serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) normalization and development of resistance mutations.
RESULTS Two hundred eighteen patients who were hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) positive and 57 who were HBeAg negative were analyzed and predominantly presented with genotype B (49.82%) or C (48.73%). For the HBeAg-positive CHB patients, the mean HBV DNA level decrease (6.61 Log10 IU/mL vs 6.69 Log10 IU/mL, P > 0.05), viral suppression with HBV DNA < 20 IU/mL (83.33% vs 79.17%, P > 0.05) and HBeAg seroconversion (28.77% vs 20.00%, P > 0.05) occurred similarly between Groups A and B at week 192. However, there was a significant difference in the proportion of patients with normal ALT levels (91.14% vs 78.38%, P < 0.05). For the HBeAg-negative CHB patients, no significant difference was found between Groups A and B at week 192 in terms of reductions in HBV DNA levels from baseline (6.05 Log10 IU/mL vs 6.03 Log10 IU/mL, P > 0.05), percentages of patients who achieved undetectable HBV DNA (100% vs 100%, P > 0.05) and rates of ALT normalization (95.65% vs 100.00%, P > 0.05). Safety and adverse event profiles were similar between Groups A and B. Two HBeAg-positive patients in Group A and 5 in Group B developed genotypic resistance to ETV.
CONCLUSION Long-term ETV maleate treatment for up to 192 wk is effective and safe in Chinese CHB patients predominantly genotyped as B or C.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of entecavir(ETV) versus ETV maleate in Chinese patients with chronic hepatitis B(CHB). This was a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, controlled, multicentre study. Patients were randomly assigned to receive 48 weeks of treatment with 0.5 mg/day ETV (group A) or 0.5 mg/day ETV maleate (group B), then, all patients received treatment with 0.5 mg/day ETV maleate from week 49 onwards. Patients were regularly followed up. Serum hepatitis B virus (HBV) markers were detected. Adverse events (AE) were recorded. The primary endpoint was the decline in HBV DNA in each group at the end of treatment. Secondary endpoints included the rate of HBV DNA below the lower limit of detection (LLOD) (20 I U/ml) at the end of treatment, the rate of hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) loss, the rate of HBeAg seroconversion and serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) normalization. One hundred and thirty-seven (71 in group A) patients with HBeAg-positive CHB and 46 (21 in group A) patients with HBeAg-negative CHB completed the 240-week treatment and follow-up. Baseline characteristics were well balanced between the two groups. For the HBeAg-positive CHB patients, the mean HBV DNA level had similarly decreased from baseline in both groups (A: by 6.67 log<sub>10</sub> IU/ml vs. B: by 6.74 log<sub>10</sub> IU/ml; p > .05) at Week 240. Patients who achieved undetectable levels of serum HBV DNA (<20 IU/ml) at Week 240 were similar between groups (A:91.55% vs. B:87.88%; p > .05). Both groups achieved similar HBeAg seroconversion rates at week 240 (A:26.98% vs. B:20.97%; p > .05). Both groups achieved similar normalization of ALT (A:87.32% vs. B:83.61%; p > .05) at Week 240 (p > .05). For the HBeAg-negative CHB patients, the mean HBV DNA level had similarly decreased from baseline in both groups (A: by 6.05 log<sub>10</sub> IU/ml vs. B: by 6.10 log<sub>10</sub> IU/ml; p > .05) at Week 240. Patients who achieved undetectable levels of serum HBV DNA at Week 240 were similar between groups (A:100% vs. B:100%). Both groups achieved similar normalization rates (A:90.91% vs. B: 95.45%; p > .05) of ALT at Week 240 (p > .05). In conclusion, long-term ETV maleate treatment was safe and efficient in Chinese CHB predominantly of genotype B or C.

Abstract
Background: T cells play critical roles in the progression of tuberculosis (TB); however, knowledge regarding these molecular mechanisms remains inadequate. This study constructed a critical ceRNA network was constructed to identify the potentially important role of TB activation via T-cell regulation. Methods: We performed integrated bioinformatics analysis in a randomly selected training set from the GSE37250 dataset. After estimating the abundance of 18 types of T cells using ImmuCellAI, critical T-cell subsets were determined by their diagnostic accuracy in distinguishing active from latent TB. We then identified the critical genes associated with T-cell subsets in TB activation through co-expression analysis and PPI network prediction. Then, the ceRNA network was constructed based on RNA complementarity detection on the DIANA-LncBase and mirDIP platform. The gene biomarkers included in the ceRNA network were lncRNA, miRNA, and targeting mRNA. We then applied an elastic net regression model to develop a diagnostic classifier to assess the significance of the gene biomarkers in clinical applications. Internal and external validations were performed to assess the repeatability and generalizability. Results: We identified CD4+ T, Tr1, nTreg, iTreg, and Tfh as T cells critical for TB activation. A ceRNA network mediated by the MIR600HG/hsa-mir-21-5p axis was constructed, in which the significant gene cluster regulated the critical T subsets in TB activation. MIR600HG, hsa-mir-21-5p, and five targeting mRNAs (BCL11B, ETS1, EPHA4, KLF12, and KMT2A) were identified as gene biomarkers. The elastic net diagnostic classifier accurately distinguished active TB from latent. The validation analysis confirmed that our findings had high generalizability in different host background cases. Conclusion: The findings of this study provided novel insight into the underlying mechanisms of TB activation and identifying prospective biomarkers for clinical applications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Glioma stem cells (GSCs) are a minority population of glioma cells that regarded as the cause of tumor formation and recurrence. Identifying new molecular strategies targeting GSCs must be urgently developed to treat glioblastoma. In this study, one of CD98 light chain-L type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1) was found as a potential GSC marker. LAT1 served as EAA transporter has been shown to be closely related with tumor invasion, metastasis, angiogenesis, and radiosensitivity. METHODS LAT1+ and LAT1- glioma cells were sorted by flow cytometry. Cellular immunofluorescence, sphere-formation arrays, and in vitro limiting dilution experiments were used to identify cell stemness. Differentiated glioma stem cells were cultured, and the expressions of β-tubulinIII, GFAP, and LAT1 were detected by Western blot. Nude mouse models were constructed to observe tumor formation and metastasis in nude mice. RESULTS LAT1+ glioma cells were testified a small percentage of all cells and selected as the subsequent sorting marker. LAT1+ cells were separated from U87 and U251 cells could express high level of stem cell markers, and possessed GSC properties including self-renewal ability and multi-directional differentiation potential. But LAT1- cells did not have these characteristics. In addition, LAT1+ cells were able to generate tumors in vivo, tumor size of LAT1+ cells formed were much bigger than that of LAT1- cells. CONCLUSION Our study, including molecular, cell, vitro and vivo experiments, has shown that LAT1+ cells possess GSC properties, and present for the first time that LAT1 can be used as a new marker for GSCs screening.

Abstract
m6A modification, the most abundant and widespread RNA modification, is present and involved in the occurrence and development of various cancers. To date, most studies have mainly focused on the roles of a single m6A regulator (writer/eraser/reader) in various cancers, but cumulative evidence shows that aberrant m6A regulators and m6A levels exert dual effects (promoting and/or inhibiting roles) in cancer progression. Recently, studies have investigated the direct interactions between different m6A regulators (writer/eraser and reader) and mRNAs in a variety of cancers. In this review, we summarize the functions of m6A regulators and their roles in various types of cancers. We further propose the possible crosstalk mechanisms (Writer-m6A-Reader-mRNA axis and Eraser-m6A-Reader-mRNA axis) between different m6A regulators and mRNAs during cancer progression. We also discuss the clinical potential of m6A regulator‑targeting strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cell division cycle 6 (CDC6) has been proven to be associated with the initiation and progression of human multiple tumors. However, it's role in glioma, which is ranked as one of the common primary malignant tumor in the central nervous system and is associated with high morbidity and mortality, is unclear. METHODS In this study, we explored CDC6 gene expression level in pan-cancer. Furthermore, we focused on the relationships between CDC6 expression, its prognostic value, potential biological functions, and immune infiltrates in glioma patients. We also performed vitro experiments to assess the effect of CDC6 expression on proliferative, apoptotic, migrant and invasive abilities of glioma cells. RESULTS As a result, CDC6 expression was upregulated in multiple types of cancer, including glioma. Moreover, high expression of CDC6 was significantly associated with age, IDH status, 1p/19q codeletion status, WHO grade and histological type in glioma (all p < 0.05). Meanwhile, high CDC6 expression was associated with poor overall survival (OS) in glioma patients, especially in different clinical subgroups. Furthermore, a univariate Cox analysis showed that high CDC6 expression was correlated with poor OS in glioma patients. Functional enrichment analysis indicated that CDC6 was mainly involved in pathways related to DNA transcription and cytokine activity, and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) revealed that MAPK pathway, P53 pathway and NF-κB pathway in cancer were differentially enriched in glioma patients with high CDC6 expression. Single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) showed CDC6 expression in glioma was positively correlated with Th2 cells, Macrophages and Eosinophils, and negative correlations with plasmacytoid dendritic cells, CD8 T cells and NK CD56bright cells, suggesting its role in regulating tumor immunity. Finally, CCK8 assay, flow cytometry and transwell assays showed that silencing CDC6 could significantly inhibit proliferation, migration, invasion, and promoted apoptosis of U87 cells and U251 cells (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION In conclusion, high CDC6 expression may serve as a promising biomarker for prognosis and correlated with immune infiltrates, presenting to be a potential immune therapy target in glioma.

Abstract
Abstract
End-stage liver disease (ESLD) is a life-threatening clinical syndrome that markedly increases mortality in patients with infections. In patients with ESLD, infections can induce or aggravate the occurrence of liver decompensation. Consequently, infections are among the most common complications of disease progression. There is a lack of working procedure for early diagnosis and appropriate management for patients with ESLD complicated by infections as well as local and international guidelines or consensus. This consensus assembled up-to-date knowledge and experience across Chinese colleagues, providing data on principles as well as working procedures for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with ESLD complicated by infections.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pradefovir is a liver-targeted prodrug of adefovir, a nucleoside/nucleotide analogue with antiviral activity against hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA polymerase. This phase 2 study compared the efficacy and safety of oral pradefovir (30, 45, 60, or 75 mg) versus tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF; 300 mg) and aimed to identify the most appropriate dose of pradefovir for the forthcoming phase 3 study. METHODS Treatment-naive and experienced (not on treatment >6 months) patients with chronic hepatitis B were eligible. RESULTS A total of 240 participants were randomized and treated in the study (48 per group). Approximately 80% were hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) positive, and 10% had liver cirrhosis. The reductions from baseline in HBV DNA levels achieved at week 24 were 5.40, 5.34, 5.33, and 5.40 log10 IU/mL, with pradefovir doses of 30-, 45-, 60-, and 75-mg, respectively, compared with 5.12 log10 IU/mL with TDF. However, HBeAg loss was attained by more participants who received 45-, 60-, or 75-mg pradefovir than by those receiving TDF (12%, 6%, and 9% vs 3%). The TDF group exhibited a more significant increase in serum creatinine than the pradefovir 30- and 45-mg groups, and serum phosphate levels were comparable among all groups. Most adverse events (AEs) were mild (grade 1). No treatment-related severe AEs were reported. Overall, AEs and laboratory abnormalities were comparable to those in the TDF group. CONCLUSIONS Pradefovir and TDF exhibited comparable reductions in HBV DNA levels. All treatments were safe and well tolerated. CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION NCT00230503 and China Drug Trials CTR2018042.

Abstract
Diffuse midline glioma, H3 K27M-mutant (H3 K27M-mt DMG), is a rare and highly aggressive tumor that is more common in children than in adults. Few studies have compared the differences between pediatric and adult patients with this rare tumor. We here report our retrospective study of 94 adult and 70 pediatric cases of diffuse midline glioma. Surgical tumor samples were analyzed by routine histopathology and immunohistochemistry for H3 K27M, IDH1 R132H, ATRX, p53, OLIG2, glial fibrillary acidic protein, and Ki-67; Sanger sequencing for hot mutation spots in genes including H3F3A, HIST1H3B, IDH1, IDH2, TERT, and BRAF; and methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction for O6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase promoter methylation. The most frequent anatomic locations in adult and pediatric patients were the thalamus and brainstem, respectively. Molecular profiling revealed higher frequencies of ATRX loss and H3.3 mutation in adult than in pediatric H3 K27M-mt DMGs. TERT promoter mutations and O6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase promoter methylation were not detected in pediatric patients but were present in a few adult patients. During the follow-up period, 93/122 patients (70.1%) died from the disease, with a median survival time of 10.5 months (range: 1 to 104 mo). Kaplan-Meier analyses demonstrated that the prognosis was better for adult patients than the pediatric cohort (P=0.0003). Multivariate analyses indicated that patient age, primary tumor size, status of ATRX expression, and Ki-67 index were independent prognosticators. The present study showed that there were differences between adult and pediatric H3 K27M-mt DMGs in terms of the anatomic location of tumor, molecular changes, and prognosis.

Abstract
In order to improve the potential of celastrol against non-small-cell lung cancer cells, the privileged structure, thiazolidinedione, was introduced into its C-20 carboxylic group with acetylpiperazine as a linker, and the thiazolidinedione-conjugated compounds 10a-10t were prepared. The target compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against the A549 cell line, and the results showed that most of the compounds 10a-10t displayed improved potency over celastrol, and compound 10b exhibited significant activity against the A549 cell line, with an IC50 value of 0.08 μM, which was 13.8-fold more potent than celastrol (IC50 = 1.10 μM). The mechanistic studies suggested that 10b could induce A549 cell apoptosis, as evidenced by Hoechst 33342 staining and annexin V-FITC/propidium iodide dual staining assays. Western blot analysis suggested that compound 10b could upregulate Bax expression, downregulate Bcl-2 expression, and activate the mitochondria-mediated apoptotic pathway. Furthermore, compound 10b could effectively inhibit tumor growth when tested in an A549 cell xenograft mouse model. Collectively, compound 10b is worthy of further investigation to support the discovery of effective agents against non-small-cell lung cancer.

Abstract
Introduction At present, lots of studies have discussed the effects and outcomes of cranioplasty using polyetheretherketone (PEEK). However, interventions or management for PEEK cranioplasty got less attention. This article presented a perioperative paradigm for preventing postoperative complications. Materials and Methods Modified PEEK plates with certified safety were implanted in patients who received evolving perioperative paradigm. Serial perioperative managements were developed as a comprehensive paradigm to prevent correlated risk factors of postoperative complications, which mainly included managements of epidural collections and wound healing. The preparation of the surgical area and systemic state were essential before surgery. During the operation, the blood supply of the incision and the handling of dura and temporalis were highlighted in our paradigm. After cranioplasty, management of subcutaneous drainage and wound healing were stressed. Patients received conventional management from February 2017 to August 2018 in our center. After the evolving paradigm developed, patients received comprehensive perioperative management from September 2018 to August 2020. Results A total of 104 patients who underwent PEEK cranioplasty were consecutively enrolled; 38 (36.5%) received conventional perioperative management, and 66 (63.5%) received evolving perioperative paradigm. The general information of the two groups was comparable. Notably, patients who received the evolving paradigm presented a significantly decreased incidence of postoperative complications from 47.4 to 18.2% (P < 0.01), among which the incidences of subcutaneous effusion, epidural hematoma, and subcutaneous infection decreased significantly. Conclusion The evolving perioperative paradigm could effectively prevent risk factors and reduce related complications. It was valuable to promote these comprehensive managements and inspire more clinical practice on improving patients' outcomes after PEEK cranioplasty.

Abstract
To mitigate the systemic adverse effects of tofacitinib, 5-ASA-PABA-MAC and 5-ASA-PABA-diamine colon-specific delivery systems were constructed, and tofacitinib azo prodrugs 9 and 20a-20g were synthesized accordingly. The release studies suggested that these systems could effectively release tofacitinib in vitro, and the 5-ASA-PABA-diamine system could successfully realize the colon targeting of tofacitinib in vivo. Specifically, compound 20g displayed a 3.67-fold decrease of plasma AUC(tofacitinib, 0-∞) and a 9.61-fold increase of colonic AUC(tofacitinib, 0-12h), compared with tofacitinib at a molar equivalent oral dose. Moreover, mouse models suggested that compound 20g (1.5 mg/kg) could achieve roughly the same efficacy against ulcerative colitis compared with tofacitinib (10 mg/kg) and did not impair natural killer cells. These results demonstrated the feasibility of compound 20g as an effective alternative to mitigate the systemic adverse effects of tofacitinib, and 5-ASA-PABA-MAC and 5-ASA-PABA-diamine systems were proven to be effective for colon-specific drug delivery.

Abstract
Many pyrimidine-based xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitors with diverse chemotypes have been reported recently. Our previous study revealed that 2-(4-alkoxy-3-cyano)phenyl-6-imino-1,6-dihydropyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid derivatives exhibited remarkable XO inhibitory potency. Notably, an intramolecular hydrogen bond (IMHB) formed between amino and carboxylic groups could be observed. With the hope to expand the structure-activity relationships (SARs) and obtain potential pyrimidine-based XO inhibitors, IMHB interruption and scaffold hopping were carried out on these compounds to design 2-(4-alkoxy-3-cyanophenyl)pyrimidine-4/5-carboxylic acids (11a-11n and 15a-15j) and 6-(4-alkoxy-3-cyanophenyl)-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-3-ones (19a-19j). Among them, compound 19a (IC50 = 0.039 μM) was identified as the most promising compound with substantially higher in vitro inhibitory potency than allopurinol (IC50 = 7.590 μM) and comparable to febuxostat (IC50 = 0.028 μM). The SAR analysis revealed that interrupting the IMHB through the removal of the amino group could damage the XO inhibitory potency; pyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid moiety was more beneficial for the XO inhibitory potency than the pyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid moiety. Additionally, enzyme kinetics studies suggested that compounds 11a, 15a and 19a acted as mixed-type inhibitors for XO and the removal of 6-position amino group resulted in a weakened affinity to the free enzyme, but an enhanced binding to the enzyme-substrate complex. Molecular modeling provided a reasonable explanation for the SARs observed in this study. Furthermore, in vivo hypouricemic effects demonstrated that compounds 15a and 19a could effectively reduce serum uric acid levels at an oral dose of 10 mg/kg, with 19a demonstrating a stronger effect than 15a. Therefore, our study proved that 6-(4-alkoxy-3-cyanophenyl)-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-3-ones were potent pyrimidine-based XO inhibitors and compound 19a required further structural optimization as a potential and efficacious agents for the treatment of hyperuricemia and gout.

Abstract
Elemene is a second-line broad-spectrum anti-tumour drug that has been used in China for more than two decades. However, its main anti-tumour ingredient, β-elemene, has disadvantages, including excessive lipophilicity and relatively weak anti-tumour efficacy. To improve the anti-tumour activity of β-elemene, based on its minor molecular weight character, we introduced furoxan nitric oxide (NO) donors into the β-elemene structure and designed six series of new generation β-elemene NO donor hybrids. The synthesised compounds could effectively release NO in vitro, displayed significant anti-proliferative effects on U87MG, NCI-H520, and SW620 cell lines. In the orthotopic glioma model, compound Id significantly and continuously suppressed the growth of gliomas in nude mice, and the brain glioma of the treatment group was markedly inhibited (>90%). In short, the structural fusion design of NO donor and β-elemene is a feasible strategy to improve the in vivo anti-tumour activity of β-elemene.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM HBV DNA can be reduced using antiviral drugs in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB); however, the rate of HBeAg seroconversion remains low. A clinical trial was conducted to assess the efficacy and safety of a de novo designed liposome-based nanoparticle lipopeptide vaccine, εPA-44, for CHB. APPROACH AND RESULTS A two-stage phase 2 trial, which included a 76-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (stage 1) and a 68-week open-label extension (stage 2), was conducted in 15 centers across China (Clinicaltrials.gov No. NCT00869778). In stage 1, 360 human leukocyte antigen A2 (HLA-A2)-positive and HBeAg-positive patients were randomly and equally distributed to receive six subcutaneous injections of 600 µg or 900 µg εPA-44 or placebo at week 0, 4, 8, 12, 20, and 28. In stage 2, 183 patients received extended 900 µg εPA-44, and 26 patients were observed for relapse without further treatment. The primary endpoint was the percentage of patients with HBeAg seroconversion at week 76. At week 76, patients receiving 900 µg εPA-44 achieved significantly higher HBeAg seroconversion rate (38.8%) versus placebo (20.2%) (95% CI, 6.9-29.6%; p = 0.002). With a combined endpoint of HBeAg seroconversion, alanine aminotransferase normalization and HBV DNA < 2,000 IU/mL, both 900 µg (18.1%) and 600 µg (14.3%), resulted in significantly higher rate versus placebo (5.0%) (p = 0.002 and p = 0.02, respectively) at week 76. In stage 2, none (0 of 20) of 900 µg εPA-44-treated patients experienced serologic relapse. The safety profile of εPA-44 was comparable to that of placebo. CONCLUSIONS Among HLA-A2-positive patients with progressive CHB, a finite duration of 900 µg εPA-44 monotherapy resulted in significantly higher HBeAg seroconversion rate than placebo and sustained off-treatment effect. A phase 3 trial is ongoing (ChiCTR2100043708).

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) broke out in December 2019. Due its high morbility and mortality, it is necessary to summarize the clinical characteristics of COVID-19 patients to provide more theoretical basis for future treatment. In the current study, we conducted a retrospective analysis of the clinical characteristics of COVID-19 patients and explored the risk factors for the severity of illness. A total of 101 COVID-19 patients hospitalized in Leishenshan Hospital (Wuhan, China) was classified into three sub-types: moderate (n = 47), severe (n = 36), and critical (n = 18); their clinical data were collected from the Electronic Medical Record. We showed that among the 101 COVID-19 patients, the median age was 62 years (IQR 51-74); 50 (49.5%) patients were accompanied by hypertension, while 25 (24.8%) and 22 (21.8%) patients suffered from diabetes and heart diseases, respectively, with complications. All patients were from Wuhan who had a definite history of exposure to the epidemic area. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that older age, diabetes, chronic liver disease, percentage of neutrophils (N%) > 75%, CRP > 4 mg/L, D-dimer > 0.55 mg/L, IL-2R > 710 U/mL, IL-8 > 62 pg/mL, and IL-10 > 9.1 pg/mL were independent variables associated with severe COVID-19. In conclusion, we have identified the independent risk factors for the severity of COVID-19 pneumonia, including older age, diabetes, chronic liver disease, higher levels of N%, CRP, D-dimer, IL-2R, IL-8, and IL-10, providing evidence for more accurate risk prediction.

Abstract
Though numerous cyanation reactions have been developed for the synthesis of benzonitriles, the construction of valuable fully substituted benzonitriles is still a challenging task. Herein, we reported a tertiary amine-catalyzed [3 + 3]-benzannulation for the green synthesis of CF3-functionalized fully substituted benzonitriles. This strategy features exclusive chemoselectivity, high atom-economy, and good step-economy with environment-friendly reagents and mild conditions. Unique triphenyl-substituted dicyanobenzoate products could be rapidly constructed using this method. The practicality and reliability of this reaction were proved by the successful scale-up synthesis. A mechanistic study indicates that the [3 + 3]-benzannulation was initiated by an intermolecular Rauhut-Currier reaction.
