Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of LAG-3 deficiency (LAG3-/-) on natural killer (NK) cell function and hepatic fibrosis in mice infected with Echinococcus multilocularis. METHODS C57BL/6 mice, each weighing (20 ± 2) g, were divided into the LAG3-/- and wild type (WT) groups, and each mouse in both groups was inoculated with 3 000 E. multilocularis protoscoleces via the hepatic portal vein. Mouse liver and spleen specimens were collected 12 weeks post-infection, sectioned and stained with sirius red, and the hepatic lesions and fibrosis were observed. Mouse hepatic and splenic lymphocytes were isolated, and flow cytometry was performed to detect the proportions of hepatic and splenic NK cells, the expression of CD44, CD25 and CD69 molecules on NK cell surface, and the secretion of interferon γ (IFN-γ), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-4, IL-10 and IL-17A. RESULTS Sirius red staining showed widening of inflammatory cell bands and hyperplasia of fibrotic connective tissues around mouse hepatic lesions, as well as increased deposition of collagen fibers in the LAG3-/-group relative to the WT group. Flow cytometry revealed lower proportions of mouse hepatic (6.29% ± 1.06% vs. 11.91% ± 1.85%, P < 0.000 1) and splenic NK cells (4.44% ± 1.22% vs. 5.85% ± 1.10%, P > 0.05) in the LAG3-/- group than in the WT group, and the mean fluorescence intensity of CD44 was higher on the surface of mouse hepatic NK cells in the LAG3-/- group than in the WT group (t = -3.234, P < 0.01), while no significant differences were found in the mean fluorescence intensity of CD25 or CD69 on the surface of mouse hepaticNK cells between the LAG3-/- and WT groups (both P values > 0.05). There were significant differences between the LAG3-/- and WT groups in terms of the percentages of IFN-γ (t = -0.723, P > 0.05), TNF-α (t = -0.659, P > 0.05), IL-4 (t = -0.263, P > 0.05), IL-10 (t = -0.455, P > 0.05) or IL-17A secreted by mouse hepatic NK cells (t = 0.091, P > 0.05), and the percentage of IFN-γ secreted by mouse splenic NK cells was higher in the LAG3-/- group than in the WT group (58.40% ± 1.64% vs. 50.40% ± 4.13%; t = -4.042, P < 0.01); however, there were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of the proportions of TNF-α (t = -1.902, P > 0.05), IL-4 (t = -1.333, P > 0.05), IL-10 (t = -1.356, P > 0.05) or IL-17A secreted by mouse splenic NK cells (t = 0.529, P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS During the course of E. multilocularis infections, LAG3-/- promotes high-level secretion of IFN-γ by splenic NK cells, which may participate in the reversal the immune function of NK cells, resulting in aggravation of hepatic fibrosis.

Abstract
The study of neuron interactions and hardware implementations are crucial research directions in neuroscience, particularly in developing large-scale biological neural networks. The FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) model is a popular neuron model with highly biological plausibility, but its complexity makes it difficult to apply at scale. This paper presents a cost-saving and improved precision approximation algorithm for the digital implementation of the FHN model. By converting the computational data into floating-point numbers, the original multiplication calculations are replaced by adding the floating-point exponent part and fitting the mantissa part with piecewise linear. In the hardware implementation, shifters and adders are used, greatly reducing resource overhead. Implementing FHN neurons by this approximation calculations on FPGA reduces the normalized root mean square error (RMSE) to 3.5% of the state-of-the-art (SOTA) while maintaining a performance overhead ratio improvement of 1.09 times. Compared to implementations based on approximate multipliers, the proposed method achieves a 20% reduction in error at the cost of a 2.8% increase in overhead.This model gained additional biological properties compared to LIF while reducing the deployment scale by only 9%. Furthermore, the hardware implementation of nine coupled circular networks with eight nodes and directional diffusion was carried out to demonstrate the algorithm's effectiveness on neural networks. The error decreased to 60% compared to the single neuron of the SOTA. This hardware-friendly algorithm allows for the low-cost implementation of high-precision hardware simulation, providing a novel perspective for studying large-scale, biologically plausible neural networks.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of oral and transdermal estradiol in alleviating menopausal symptoms. METHOD A total of 257 recently menopausal women were randomized into two groups. The t-E2 group received transdermal estradiol (2.5 g per day) (n = 128) and the o-E2V group received oral estradiol valerate (2 mg per day) (n = 129) for 24 weeks; both groups received micronized progesterone (200 mg per day). The primary outcome measure is the change in the modified Kupperman Menopausal Index (KMI) after 24 weeks of treatment. Menopausal symptoms were recorded at screening and at 4, 12 and 24 weeks using both the KMI and the Menopause Rating Scale (MRS). RESULTS Significant amelioration was observed by KMI and MRS scores for both groups after treatment (p < 0.001). The mean KMI scores showed no difference between the two groups. The mean MRS scores were similar between the two groups at baseline and after 4 weeks of treatment. The results showed statistical differences after 12 weeks and 24 weeks of treatment (p = 0.005 and p = 0.011). Both the after-treatment scores minus the baseline scores of KMI and MRS and the incidence of adverse effects showed no difference between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS This study shows that both transdermal and oral estradiol are effective in relieving menopausal symptoms, with little difference in treatment efficacy and safety. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER ChiCTR2300073146.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the minimum interaction between different antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) and meropenem (MEPM) for clinical treatment. PATIENTS AND METHODS The data of 91 patients enrolled in the neurology department from January 2020 to March 2023 for clinical trials were measured and observed. Self-controlled studies were conducted to monitor the trough concentrations of valproic acid (VPA), carbamazepine (CBZ) and levotiracetam (LEV) before and after MEPM usage. Relevant indicators of liver and kidney function were also monitored. RESULTS The serum VPA trough concentrations were 36.25±8.22 μg/ml at 24±12 h and 34.99±11.17 μg/ml at 96±12 h after MEPM use; the difference was significant (p<0.05). Decreased CBZ trough concentrations were also identified after MEPM usage (96±12 h), whereas LEV trough concentrations were not affected. An increased liver injury rate (χ2 =8.744, p<0.05) and a decreased kidney injury rate (χ2 =5.393, p<0.05) were found in the VPA group only. CONCLUSIONS The interaction between VPA and MEPM decreased serum VPA concentrations, increased liver injury rates, and decreased kidney injury rates. In addition, the co-administration of MEPM and CBZ reduced serum CBZ concentrations. Clinicians should be aware of this potential interaction and closely monitor the relevant biochemical indices and number of seizures.

Abstract
As a crucial component of neuromorphic chips, on-chip memory usually occupies most of the on-chip resources and limits the improvement of neuron density. The alternative of using off-chip memory may result in additional power consumption or even a bottleneck for off-chip data access. This article proposes an on- and off-chip co-design approach and a figure of merit (FOM) to achieve a trade-off between chip area, power consumption, and data access bandwidth. By evaluating the FOM of each design scheme, the scheme with the highest FOM (1.085× better than the baseline) is adopted to design a neuromorphic chip. Deep multiplexing and weight-sharing technologies are used to reduce on-chip resource overhead and data access pressure. A hybrid memory design method is proposed to optimize on- and off-chip memory distribution, which reduces on-chip storage pressure and total power consumption by 92.88% and 27.86%, respectively, while avoiding the explosion of off-chip access bandwidth. The co-designed neuromorphic chip with ten cores fabricated under standard 55 nm CMOS technology has an area of 4.4 mm 2 and a core neuron density of 4.92 K/mm 2, an improvement of 3.39 ∼ 30.56× compared with previous works. After deploying a full-connected and a convolution-based spiking neural network (SNN) for ECG signal recognition, the neuromorphic chip achieves 92% and 95% accuracy, respectively. This work provides a new path for developing high-density and large-scale neuromorphic chips.

Abstract
To measure the expression of angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) mRNA in SARS-CoV-2 infection with different infection status and at different stages during infection, we used RT-qP CR to measure the expression of ACE2 mRNA. Measurements were analyzed by two-way repeated measures analysis of variance (RMANOVA). Expression of ACE2 mRNA was downregulated in initial stages of SARS-CoV-2 infection both in the asymptomatic infection (ASY) group and the confirmed cases (CON) group (t=-8.0845, P < 0.0001; t=-8.1904, P < 0.0001, respectively). The expression of ACE2 mRNA in the incubation period of CON group was lower compared with the intinal period of ASY group (F = 6.084, p = 0.016, partialη2 = 0.070). Relative expression of ACE2 mRNA was upregulated at the late stage of SARS-CoV-2 infection in the ASY and CON groups (F = 23.489, p = 0.000, partialη2 = 0.225; F = 46.555, p = 0.000, partialη2 = 0.365, respectively). The relative expression of ACE2 mRNA was down-regulated (mean ± SEM:0.69 ± 0.03) after inoculation with SARSCoV- 2 Spike pseudovirus, and there was a statistical difference (one-way t test, mean diffience =-0.31, 95%CI: -0.37˜-0.24, t=-8.1904, P < 0.0001). The expression of ACE2 mRNA is downregulated in the initial stage of SARS-CoV-2 infection, and then upregulated in the late stage of SARS-CoV-2 infection. The lower expression of ACE2 mRNA during the incubation period can lead to clinical symptoms. Downregulation of ACE2 mRNA was related to the interaction between SARS-CoV-2 S protein and ACE2.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Purtscher-like retinopathy (PLR) is a rare ocular manifestation in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with poor prognosis, but its clear risk factors and treatment consensus are still lacking. AIM To investigate the clinical features, risk factors and prognosis of PLR in SLE patients. DESIGN AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on SLE patients with PLR admitted at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 2013 to 2022. Clinical data, including demographic characteristics, lupus-related features, laboratory findings and ophthalmologic examinations, were collected and analyzed. The prognosis was evaluated based on best-corrected visual acuity and ophthalmologic outcomes. RESULTS Seventeen SLE patients (32 eyes) diagnosed with PLR were included, along with a random selection of 100 SLE patients without retinopathy and 100 with retinal microvasculopathy as controls. Patients with PLR had a significantly younger age, a higher proportion of hemolytic anemia, a shorter duration of SLE, a higher SLE disease activity index-2000 (SLEDAI-2K) score, higher erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) values and lower hemoglobin (HGB) values than the group without retinopathy (P < 0.05). They also had a significantly higher SLEDAI-2K score, higher ESR values and higher white blood cell values (P < 0.05) than the Microvasculopathy group. The majority of eyes (22/26, 84.62%) achieved stabilization at the last follow-up, with different therapeutic strategies, while a few (4/26, 15.38%) experienced complications or progression. CONCLUSION This is the largest reported case series of PLR in SLE, which was associated with higher disease activity and poor visual prognosis. It was also associated with younger age, shorter SLE duration, concomitant hemolytic anemia, lower HGB and higher ESR value. Early recognition and prompt treatment are crucial for improving visual outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The goal was to characterize short-term kidney status and describe variation in early care utilization in a multicenter cohort of patients with childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE) and nephritis. METHODS We analyzed previously collected prospective data from North American patients with cSLE with kidney biopsy-proven nephritis enrolled in the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) Registry from March 2017 through December 2019. We determined the proportion of patients with abnormal kidney status at the most recent registry visit and applied generalized linear mixed models to identify associated factors. We also calculated frequency of medication use, both during induction and ever recorded. RESULTS We identified 222 patients with kidney biopsy-proven nephritis, with 64% class III/IV nephritis on initial biopsy. At the most recent registry visit at median (interquartile range) of 17 (8-29) months from initial kidney biopsy, 58 of 106 patients (55%) with available data had abnormal kidney status. This finding was associated with male sex (odds ratio [OR] 3.88, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 1.21-12.46) and age at cSLE diagnosis (OR 1.23, 95% CI 1.01-1.49). Patients with class IV nephritis were more likely than class III to receive cyclophosphamide and rituximab during induction. There was substantial variation in mycophenolate, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab ever use patterns across rheumatology centers. CONCLUSION In this cohort with predominately class III/IV nephritis, male sex and older age at cSLE diagnosis were associated with abnormal short-term kidney status. We also observed substantial variation in contemporary medication use for pediatric lupus nephritis between pediatric rheumatology centers. Additional studies are needed to better understand the impact of this variation on long-term kidney outcomes.

Abstract
Objective: To document the anatomical structure of the area anterior to the anorectum passing through the levator hiatus between the levator ani slings bilaterally. Methods: Three male hemipelvises were examined at the Laboratory of Clinical Applied Anatomy, Fujian Medical University. (1) The anatomical assessment was performed in three ways; namely, by abdominal followed by perineal dissection, by examining serial cross-sections, and by examining median sagittal sections. (2) The series was stained with hematoxylin and eosin to enable identification of nerves, vessels, and smooth and striated muscles. Results: (1) It was found that the rectourethralis muscle is closest to the deep transverse perineal muscle where the longitudinal muscle of the rectum extends into the posteroinferior area of the membranous urethra. The communicating branches of the neurovascular bundle (NVB) were identified at the posterior edge of the rectourethralis muscle on both sides. The rectum was found to be fixed to the membranous urethra through the rectourethral muscle, contributing to the anorectal angle of the anterior rectal wall. (2) Serial cross-sections from the anal to the oral side were examined. At the level of the external anal sphincter, the longitudinal muscle of the rectum was found to extend caudally and divide into two muscle bundles on the oral side of the external anal sphincter. One of these muscle bundles angled dorsally and caudally, forming the conjoined longitudinal muscle, which was found to insert into the intersphincteric space (between the internal and external anal sphincters). The other muscle bundle angled ventrally and caudally, filling the gap between the external anal sphincter and the bulbocavernosus muscle, forming the perineal body. At the level of the superficial transverse perineal muscle, this small muscle bundle headed laterally and intertwined with the longitudinal muscle in the region of the perineal body. At the level of the rectourethralis and deep transverse perineal muscle, the external urethral sphincter was found to occupy an almost completely circular space along the membranous part of the urethra. The dorsal part of the external urethral sphincter was found to be thin at the point of attachment of the rectourethralis muscle, the ventral part of the longitudinal muscle of the rectum. We identified a venous plexus from the NVB located close to the oral and ventral side of the deep transverse perineal muscle. Many vascular branches from the NVB were found to be penetrating the longitudinal muscle and the ventral part of rectourethralis muscle at the level of the apex of the prostate. The rectourethral muscle was wrapped ventrally around the membranous urethra and apex of the prostate. The boundary between the longitudinal muscle and prostate gradually became more distinct, being located at the anterior end of the transabdominal dissection plane. (3) Histological examination showed that the dorsal part of the external urethral sphincter (striated muscle) is thin adjacent to the striated muscle fibers from the deep transverse perineal muscle and the NVB dorsally and close by. The rectourethral muscle was found to fill the space created by the internal anal sphincter, deep transverse perineal muscle, and both levator ani muscles. Many tortuous vessels and tiny nerve fibers from the NVB were identified penetrating the muscle fibers of the deep transverse perineal and rectourethral muscles. The structure of the superficial transverse perineal muscle was typical of striated muscle. These findings were reconstructed three-dimensionally. Conclusions: In intersphincteric resection or abdominoperineal resection for very low rectal cancer, the anterior dissection plane behind Denonvilliers' fascia disappears at the level of the apex of the prostate. The prostate and both NVBs should be used as landmarks during transanal dissection of the non-surgical plane. The rectourethralis muscle should be divided near the rectum side unless tumor involvement is suspected. The superficial and deep transverse perineal muscles, as well as their supplied vessels and nerve fibers from the NVB. In addition, the cutting direction should be adjusted according to the anorectal angle to minimize urethral injury.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of targeted carboxylesterase 1f (Ces1f) gene knockdown on the polarization activity of Kupffer cells (KC) induced by lipopolysaccharide/D-galactosamine (LPS/D-GalN) in mice with acute liver failure. Methods: The complex siRNA-EndoPorter formed by combining the small RNA (siRNA) carrying the Ces1f-targeting interference sequence and the polypeptide transport carrier (Endoporter) was wrapped in β-1, 3-D glucan shell to form complex particles (GeRPs). Thirty male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into a normal control group, a model group (LPS/D-GalN), a pretreatment group (GeRPs), a pretreatment model group (GeRPs+LPS/D-GalN), and an empty vector group (EndoPorter). Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR and western blot were used to detect Ces1f mRNA and protein expression levels in the liver tissues of each mouse group. Real-time PCR was used to detect the expression levels of KC M1 polarization phenotypic differentiation cluster 86(CD86) mRNA and KC M2 polarization phenotypic differentiation cluster 163 (CD163) mRNA in each group. Immunofluorescence double staining technique was used to detect the expression of Ces1f protein and M1/M2 polarization phenotype CD86/CD163 protein in KC. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the pathological damage to liver tissue. A one-way analysis of variance was used to compare the means among multiple groups, or an independent sample nonparametric rank sum test was used when the variances were uneven. Results: The relative expression levels of Ces1f mRNA/protein in liver tissue of the normal control group, model group, pretreatment group, and pretreatment model group were 1.00 ± 0.00, 0.80 ± 0.03/0.80 ± 0.14, 0.56 ± 0.08/0.52 ± 0.13, and 0.26 ± 0.05/0.29 ± 0.13, respectively, and the differences among the groups were statistically significant (F = 9.171/3.957, 20.740/9.315, 34.530/13.830, P < 0.01). The percentages of Ces1f-positive Kupffer cells in the normal control group, model group, pretreatment group, and pretreatment model group were 91.42%, ± 3.79%, 73.85% ± 7.03%, 48.70% ± 5.30%, and 25.68% ± 4.55%, respectively, and the differences between the groups were statistically significant (F = 6.333, 15.400, 23.700, P < 0.01). The relative expression levels of CD86 mRNA in the normal control group, model group, and pretreatment model group were 1.00 ± 0.00, 2.01 ± 0.04, and 4.17 ± 0.14, respectively, and the differences between the groups were statistically significant (F = 33.800, 106.500, P < 0.01). The relative expression levels of CD163 mRNA in the normal control group, the model group, and the pretreatment model group were 1.00 ± 0.00, 0.85 ± 0.01, and 0.65 ± 0.01, respectively, and the differences between the groups were statistically significant (F = 23.360, 55.350, P < 0.01). The percentages of (F4/80(+)CD86(+)) and (F4/80(+)CD163(+)) in the normal control group and model group and pretreatment model group were 10.67% ± 0.91% and 12.60% ± 1.67%, 20.02% ± 1.29% and 8.04% ± 0.76%, and 43.67% ± 2.71% and 5.43% ± 0.47%, respectively, and the differences among the groups were statistically significant (F = 11.130/8.379, 39.250/13.190, P < 0.01). The liver injury scores of the normal control group, the model group, and the pretreatment model group were 0.22 ± 0.08, 1.32 ± 0.36, and 2.17 ± 0.26, respectively, and the differences among the groups were statistically significant (F = 12.520 and 22.190, P < 0.01). Conclusion: Ces1f may be a hepatic inflammatory inhibitory molecule, and its inhibitory effect production may come from the molecule's maintenance of KC polarization phenotypic homeostasis.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the diagnostic and evaluation value of plasma interleukin 9 (IL9) in the mucosal healing (MH) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treated with biological agents. Methods: Cohort study. IBD patients (137 cases) treated in the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital to Nanjing Medical University (Suzhou Municipal Hospital) from September 2019 to January 2022 were prospective selected. Each patient was treated with biological agents [Infliximab (IFX, 56 cases), Adalimumab (ADA, 20 cases), Ustekinumab (UST, 18 cases), Vedolizumab (VDZ, 43 cases)]. According to different therapeutic drugs, the IFX, ADA, UST, and VDZ group were divided. Clinical symptoms, inflammatory indicators and imaging examinations etc. were evaluated every 8 weeks, and the degree of MH was evaluated by endoscopy at the 54th week. The expression of plasma IL9 was detected by ELISA after initial enrollment (W 0) and 8 weeks of biological treatment (W 8). Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of IL9 for MH. Select the cut off value for the optimal ROC threshold based on the highest value of the Youden index. Spearman's rank correlation was used to analyze the correlation between IL9 and Simple Endoscopic Score for CD (SES-CD) and Mayo Endoscopic Score (MES), so as to evaluate the predictive value of IL9 for MH in IBD patients treated with biologic agents. Results: Among the 137 patients, there were 97 Crohn's disease (CD) patients, 53 males and 44 females, aged (31.6±10.3) years (18-60 years). There were 40 ulcerative colitis (UC) patients, 22 males and 18 females, aged (37.5±14.7) years (18-67 years). Among the CD patients, 42 cases (43.3%) achieved MH on endoscopy at the 54th week, and 60 patients (61.9%) achieved clinical remission. Among the UC patients, 22 cases (55.0%) achieved MH and 30 cases (75.0%) achieved clinical remission. At W 0, the relative expression of IL9 in patients in IBD patients who achieved MH after 54 weeks of biological treatment was lower than that in the non-MH patients [x¯±s, (127.42±34.43) vs (146.82±45.64) ng/L, (113.01±44.88) vs (146.12±48.66) ng/L, respectively, both P<0.05]. At W 8, the relative expression of IL9 in the MH group was lower than that in the non-MH patients (both P<0.05). The relative expression of IL9 in the MH patients after IFX treatment was lower than that in the non-MH group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference among the other groups between MH and non-MH patients (all P>0.05). IL9 at W 8 showed high value in predicting MH in IBD [CD patients: area under curve (AUC)=0.716(95%CI: 0.616-0.817, P<0.001), sensitivity and specificity were 80.77%(95%CI:67.64%-88.45%) and 48.89%(95%CI: 35.53%-64.47%), respectively; UC patients: AUC=0.821, sensitivity and specificity were 77.78% and 72.73%, respectively]. At W 8, the cut off values for CD and UC patients were IL9>80.77 ng/L and IL9>77.78 ng/L, respectively. IL9 was positively correlated with endoscopic MH score parameters [M(Q1,Q3),SES-CD: 3.0(8.5, 18.5); MES: 2.0(1.0, 3.0)] (r=0.55, 0.72, respectively, both P<0.001) at W8. Conclusion: The plasma IL-9 at the week 8 after biological agents treatment can be used to diagnose and evaluate the MH of patients with IBD.

Abstract
Braille system is widely used worldwide for communication by visually impaired people. However, there are still some visually impaired people who are unable to learn Braille system due to various factors, such as the age (too young or too old), brain damage, etc. A wearable and low-cost Braille recognition system may substantially help these people recognize Braille or assist them in Braille learning. In this work, we fabricated polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-based flexible pressure sensors to construct an electronic skin (E-skin) for the application of Braille recognition. The E-skin mimics human touch sensing function for collecting Braille information. Braille recognition is realized with a neural network based on memristors. We utilize a binary neural network algorithm with only two bias layers and three fully connected layers. Such neural network design remarkably reduces the calculation burden and, thus, the system cost. Experiments show that the system can achieve a recognition accuracy of up to 91.25%. This work demonstrates the possibility of realizing a wearable and low-cost Braille recognition system and a Braille learning-assistance system.

Abstract
Objective: To detect and analyze the characteristics of oral microbiota in species composition, function and metabolism among caries, periodontitis and oral healthy individuals, hunting for the microbiome-derived biomarkers with specificity and sensitivity to estimate the occurrence of these two diseases. Methods: Saliva samples were collected from 10 patients with high caries risk [decayed-missing-filled teeth (DMFT)≥6, HC group] in Department of Endodontics, 10 patients with periodontitis of grade Ⅱ A-Ⅲ C (PG group) in Department of Periodontology and 10 oral healthy individuals (HH group) from School of Stomatology, The Fourth Military Medical University during from March 2022 to June 2022. A baseline examination was conducted on all participants, including their oral conditions of caries and periodontal health. Metagenomic sequencing (Illumina PE150 platform) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry were used to detect microorganisms and their metabolites in the samples respectively. The sequencing data were analyzed to obtain the information of microbial taxonomic composition, functional genes and metabolites in each group of samples. The basic oral conditions and saliva samples of subjects in each group were evaluated and collected by the same professional endodontist. Results: There were no significant difference in baseline characteristics such as age and sex among the subjects in each group (P>0.05). DMFT in HC group (9.0±1.7) was significantly higher than that in HH group (0) and PG group (0) (F=243.00, P<0.001). Sequencing data analysis showed that the taxonomic compositions of salivary microbiota in each group were mainly Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria and Fusobacteria at the phylum level, and Streptococcus, Neisseria, Rothia, Prevotella at the genus level. Differential analysis showed that, compared with the HH group, HC group and PG group had significant differences in taxonomic composition (P<0.05), and the most significant among them was Prevotella. At the species level, Prevotella pallens was the most significant change in HC group, and Porphyromonas gingivalis in PG group. Metabolite analysis showed that there were significant differences in metabolites between HC group and PG group. The results showed that, compared with the HH group, the most significant metabolite change was 3-hydroxy-1, 5-diphenylpentan-1-one in HC group (P=0.001) and N1 acetylspermine in PG group (P=0.002) respectively. Compared with the PG group, the metabolite of HC group with the most significant difference is D-glucosamine 6-phosphate (P=0.006). The metabolism gene function analysis showed that, the enrichment of carbohydrate metabolism related genes was highest in HC group, followed with HH group, and it was lowest in PG group. In addition, compared with the HH group, the abundance of functional genes related to glucose metabolism, such as ABC transporter and phosphotransferase system, were significantly decreased in PG group (P<0.05), but significantly increased in HC group (P<0.05). Conclusions: There is a significant correlation between the alternation of carbohydrate metabolism of salivary microbiota with the occurrence of caries and periodontitis. In the future, Prevotella pallens and 3-hydroxy-1, 5-diphenylpentan-1-one may be the potential biomarkers of caries; while Porphyromonas gingivalis and N1 acetylspermine work in the predictions of periodontitis.

Abstract
In this article, we present a spiking neural network (SNN) based on both SRAM processing-in-memory (PIM) macro and on-chip unsupervised learning with Spike-Time-Dependent Plasticity (STDP). Co-design of algorithm and hardware for hardware-friendly SNN and efficient STDP-based learning methodology is used to improve area and energy efficiency. The proposed macro utilizes charge sharing of capacitors to perform fully parallel Reconfigurable Multi-bit PIM Multiply-Accumulate (RMPMA) operations. A thermometer-coded Programmable High-precision PIM Threshold Generator (PHPTG) is designed to achieve low differential non-linearity (DNL) and high linearity. In the macro, each column of PIM cells and a comparator act as a neuron to accumulate membrane potential and fire spikes. A simplified Winner Takes All (WTA) mechanism is used in the proposed hardware-friendly architecture. By combining the hardware-friendly STDP algorithm as well as the parallel Word Lines (WLs) and Processing Bit Lines (PBLs), we realize unsupervised learning and recognize the Modified National Institute of Standards and Technology (MNIST) dataset. The chip for the hardware implementation was fabricated with a 55 nm CMOS process. The measurement shows that the chip achieves a learning efficiency of 0.47 nJ/pixel, with a learning energy efficiency of 70.38 TOPS/W. This work paves a pathway for the on-chip learning algorithm in PIM with lower power consumption and fewer hardware resources.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the inhibitory effect of a hyaluronic acid hydrogel loaded with hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) on scar formation after filtration surgery in a rabbit model. METHODS Scleral fibroblasts were isolated and extracted from rabbits' eyes. After treatment with different concentrations of HCPT, cytotoxicity was detected using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay, and proliferation and extent of apoptosis were analysed using flow cytometry. Hydrogels loaded with different dosages of HCPT were prepared and placed under the scleral flap after the filtration surgery. One day, one week, and two weeks after surgery, follicular, conjunctival, corneal, and anterior chamber inflammation and iris and lens changes were observed. RESULTS In vitro, compared with cells not treated with HCPT, cells treated with HCPT had decreased survival rate and proliferation, and the apoptosis level increased with increasing HCPT concentrations (p < 0.05). In vivo, the flattening time of filtering blebs in the three groups treated with different dosages of HCPT hydrogel was delayed. The degrees of oedema, inflammation, and bleeding were similar to those observed in the control group. The HCPT hydrogel effectively downregulated the expression of collagen 1 and 3 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 and upregulated the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 2 in a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSIONS HCPT significantly inhibited the growth of rabbits' scleral fibroblasts and effectively inhibited scar formation after filtering surgery by accelerating the degradation of extracellular matrix deposition.

Abstract
Coxsackievirus A12 (CVA12) is an enterovirus that has been isolated in many countries in recent years. However, studies on CVA12 are limited, and its effective population size, evolutionary dynamics and recombination patterns have not been clarified now. In this study, we described the phylogenetic characteristics of 16 CVA12 strains isolated from pediatric HFMD patients in mainland China from 2010 to 2019. Comparison of the nucleotide sequences and amino acid sequences with the CVA12 prototype strain revealed that the 16 CVA12 strains are identical in 78.8-79% and 94-94.2%, respectively. A phylodynamic analysis based on the 16 full-length VP1 sequences from this study and 21 sequences obtained from GenBank revealed a mean substitution rate of 6.61 × 10-3 substitutions/site/year (95% HPD: 5.16-8.20 × 10-3), dating the time to most recent common ancestor (tMRCA) of CVA12 back to 1946 (95% HPD: 1942-1947). The Bayesian skyline plot showed that the effective population size has experienced twice dynamic fluctuations since 2007. Phylogeographic analysis identified two significant migration pathways, indicating the existence of cross-provincial transmission of CVA12 in mainland China. Recombination analysis revealed two recombination patterns between 16 CVA12 strains and other EV-A, suggesting that there may be extensive genetic exchange between CVA12 and other enteroviruses. In summary, a total of 16 full-length CVA12 strains were reported in this study, providing valuable references for further studies of CVA12 worldwide.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) who achieve a drug free remission often experience a flare of their disease requiring either intraarticular steroids (IAS) or systemic treatment with disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). IAS offer an opportunity to recapture disease control and avoid exposure to side effects from systemic immunosuppression. We examined a cohort of patients treated with IAS after drug free remission and report the probability of restarting systemic treatment within 12 months. METHODS We analyzed a cohort of patients from the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) Registry who received IAS for a flare after a period of drug free remission. Historical factors and clinical characteristics and of the patients including data obtained at the time of treatment were analyzed. RESULTS We identified 46 patients who met the inclusion criteria. Of those with follow up data available 49% had restarted systemic treatment 6 months after IAS injection and 70% had restarted systemic treatment at 12 months. The proportion of patients with prior use of a biologic DMARD was the only factor that differed between patients who restarted systemic treatment those who did not, both at 6 months (79% vs 35%, p < 0.01) and 12 months (81% vs 33%, p < 0.05). CONCLUSION While IAS are an option for all patients who flare after drug free remission, it may not prevent the need to restart systemic treatment. Prior use of a biologic DMARD may predict lack of success for IAS. Those who previously received methotrexate only, on the other hand, are excellent candidates for IAS.

Abstract
Background The Dulong people are one of the minorities in China with the lowest population. In recent years, the lifestyle of the Dulong people has also changed drastically due to income growth and urbanization. This study aims to identify cigarette smoking prevalence and potential risk factors among Dulong adults in China. Methods This study was conducted among 1,018 adults based on the Dulong Health Status Investigation and Evaluation (DHSIE) in Gongshan Dulong and Nu Autonomous County of Yunnan province, Southwest China. A cross-sectional design and face-to-face questionnaire were used to collect cigarette smoking habits and demographic information. Data were weighted by post-stratification weights according to the age and gender composition of Dulong resident. We also analyzed univariate and multivariate unconditional logistic regression to explore current smoking correlates. Results The weighted prevalence of ever-smoking, currently smoking, and formerly smoking among Dulong adults is 31.3, 27.7, and 3.6%, respectively. The prevalence of ever-smoking and currently smoking among male participants (57.0 and 50.6%) is much higher than that of female participants (4.0 and 3.4%). Nearly 60% of ever-smokers and current smokers smoked more than 20 cigarettes per day, which are higher than former smokers (35.2%). Among current smokers, 33.1% relapsed, and 28.3% intend to quit smoking. By adjusting for potential confounding variables, multiple logistic regression analysis indicated that male participants (OR = 48.982, 95% CI: 25.026-95.869) and current drinkers (OR = 4.450, 95% CI: 2.556-7.746) are more likely to be current smokers. On the contrary, current smokers are also more likely to be exposed to secondhand smoke (OR = 4.269, 95% CI: 2.330-7.820) and have a higher risk of chronic respiratory disease (OR = 4.955, 95% CI: 1.669-14.706). Conclusion Cigarette smoking is highly prevalent among the Dulong people in Southwest China. An appropriate and effective tobacco control strategy is an urgent need for this population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to analyze the medium-term outcomes of ultralight type I mesh for postmenopausal women with recurrent severe posterior vaginal prolapse (PVP). METHODS All participants underwent transvaginal ultralight type I mesh repair between April 2016 and April 2021 and were followed until May 2022. Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification System (POP-Q) staging, mesh-related complications, Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) scale and quality of life questionnaire responses were evaluated. The primary outcome was composite surgical success rate at the last follow-up, composite success being defined as no vaginal bulge symptoms, no POP-Q point at or beyond the hymen and no re-treatment for POP. Secondary outcomes included anatomic outcomes (POP-Q score), symptomatic relief and complications. RESULTS The median follow-up was 37.3 months. At the last follow-up, the composite success rate was 75%, and POP-Q scores for the vault and posterior wall and quality of life questionnaire scores were significantly improved (p < 0.01). The subjective satisfaction (PGI-I ≤ 2) rate was 83.3%. There were no mesh-related complications. CONCLUSIONS Ultralight mesh can achieve good clinical outcomes and substantially improve the quality of life of patients with severe recurrent PVP in the medium term, and may thus be a viable alternative for treating this condition.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the clinical outcomes of computer aided design and computer aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) ceramic endocrowns in endodontically treated posterior teeth after five years by a retrospective study. Methods: Patients who received CAD/CAM ceramic endocrowns after endodontically treatment in Department of Endodontics, School of Stomatology, The Fourth Military Medical University between January 2016 and June 2017 were invited for this clinical study. Clinical performance was evaluated in the aspect of color match, anatomic form,marginal adaptation, restoration integrity and secondary caries. Survival rate of the restorations was calculated by the use of Kaplan-Meier method. Log-rank test was applied as well for the sake of analyzing the effect of tooth position, sex and materials to the survival rate of the restorations. Results: Seventy-four patients, 25 men and 49 women with age of (38.8±10.2) years, participated in this study for a total of 101 CAD/CAM ceramic endocrowns after observation period of (62.8±12.0) months. There were 8 failed cases among 101 restorations, 5 were loss of retention, 2 were ceramic fracture and 1 was secondary caries respectively. In particular, 93% (89/96) restorations got score A on anatomic form and 95% (91/96) restorations got score A on marginal adaptation, while 38% (36/96) restorations showed the good color match compared with the abutment teeth. The estimated cumulative survival rate of CAD/CAM ceramic endocrowns in endodontically treated posterior teeth after 5 years was 93.0% (95%CI: 87.9%-98.1%). The single-factor Log-rank analysis demonstrated that there was no statistically significant difference in the survival rate of CAD/CAM ceramic endocrowns among men and women, premolars and molars, position in the dental arch, or different materials (χ²<0.01, P=0.957; χ²=0.64, P=0.422; χ²=0.69, P=0.407; χ²=0.88, P=0.349). Conclusions: Based on this clinical study, the clinical performance of CAD/CAM ceramic endocrowns in endodontically treated posterior teeth after five years is reliable, which could be a general option to restore nonvital teeth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to explore the modulatory effects of menopause hormone therapy (MHT) on mood disorders among postmenopausal women. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted to recruit postmenopausal women, including patients (arranged MHT for over 3 years as the medication group) and non-MHT controls. All participants were asked to respond to the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder Screener (GAD-7) questionnaires to assess their depression and anxiety status. RESULTS A total of 230 cases from the two groups were determined based on propensity score matching analysis by matching the menopausal age and menopausal durations. We found that MHT served as a favorable modulator in the depression status of postmenopausal women. Among the four factors of the CES-D questionnaire, our data indicated that the differences between the two groups fell primarily into two aspects: depressive emotion, and somatic symptoms or retarded activities. MHT was mainly involved in improving the depression of overweight women. However, no substantial effects of MHT were observed on the regulation of anxiety. CONCLUSION Postmenopausal women, especially the overweight population, who have experienced MHT exhibited an improved depressive status but not their anxiety condition.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the prevalence and change trend of severe multiple disabling birth defects in Chongqing City from 2007 to 2020, and to provide a basis for comprehensive prevention and control measures of severe multiple disabling birth defects. Methods: Based on hospital monitoring data, 1 103 children with severe multiple disabling birth defects monitored by all birth defects monitoring institutions in Chongqing City from January 2007 to December 2020 were included in the study. They were grouped by year, perinatal gender, maternal permanent residence (urban/rural), maternal age, different regions and other categories. Chi-square test was used to analyze the differences in the incidence of severe multiple disabling birth defects in different categories, and linear trend test was used to analyze the change trend. Results: From 2007 to 2020, a total of 1 022 314 perinatal births and 1 103 severe multiple disabling birth defects were monitored in Chongqing City, with an incidence of 10.79/10 000, including 11.47/10 000 in urban areas and 9.48/10 000 in rural areas, with an incidence higher in urban areas than in rural areas(χ2=8.424,P=0.004). Male was 10.47/10 000, female was 10.97/10 000, there was no significant difference between male and female(χ2=0.606,P=0.436). The incidence of maternal in different age groups was u-shaped, and there was statistical difference in incidence among different age groups (χ2=59.465, P<0.001). The incidence of maternal in<20 years old and ≥35 years old was higher, and in 25-29 years old was lower. The incidence rate was 17.96/10 000 in 2007 and 7.18/10 000 in 2020, which decreased by 60.02% in 2007-2020. The incidence of neural tube defect, chromosome syndrome, limb shortening and abdominal wall defect decreased by 78.12%, 77.38%, 80.55% and 91.30%, respectively. Severe Congenital heart disease rose by 456.16%. From 2007 to 2020, the overall incidence of the disease showed a decreasing trend (χ2trend =117.046, P<0.001), except for the rise of severe congenital heart disease, (χ2trend=8.744, P=0.003), the other four types of diseases were on the decline (neural tube defects χ2trend =48.618, P<0.001; chromosome syndrome χ2trend=50.999, P<0.001; limb shortening χ2trend=73.464, P<0.001; abdominal wall defect χ2trend=79.863, P<0.001). Conclusion: From 2007 to 2020, the incidence of severe disabling birth defects in Chongqing City showed a downward trend, and there were regional and age differences. The incidence of severe congenital heart disease is on the rise.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The disability weight (DW) quantifies the severity of health states from disease sequela and is a pivotal parameter for disease burden calculation. We conducted a national and subnational DW measurement in China. METHODS In 2020-2021, we conducted a web-based survey to assess DWs for 206 health states in 31 Chinese provinces targeting health workers via professional networks. We fielded questions of paired comparison (PC) and population health equivalence (PHE). The PC data were analysed by probit regression analysis, and the regression results were anchored by results from the PHE responses on the DW scale between 0 (no loss of health) and 1 (health loss equivalent to death). FINDINGS We used PC responses from 468,541 respondents to estimate DWs of health states. Eight of 11 domains of health had significantly negative coefficients in the regression of the difference between Chinese and Global Burden of Disease (GBD) DWs, suggesting lower DW values for health states with mention of these domains in their lay description. We noted considerable heterogeneity within domains, however. After applying these Chinese DWs to the 2019 GBD estimates for China, total years lived with disability (YLDs) increased by 14·9% to 177 million despite lower estimates for musculoskeletal disorders, cardiovascular diseases, mental disorders, diabetes and chronic kidney disease. The lower estimates of YLDs for these conditions were more than offset by higher estimates of common, low-severity conditions. INTERPRETATION The differences between the GBD and Chinese DWs suggest that there might be some contextual factors influencing the valuation of health states. While the reduced estimates for mental disorders, alcohol use disorder, and dementia could hint at a culturally different valuation of these conditions in China, the much greater shifts in YLDs from low-severity conditions more likely reflects methodological difficulty to distinguish between health states that vary a little in absolute DW value but a lot in relative terms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Both cancer and atherosclerosis are the main causes of morbidity and mortality in the world, and some patients even suffer from both of them. Several studies have shown an association between the pathogenesis of cancer and atherosclerosis. It has been reported that miR-126 may participate in the pathological process of cancer and atherosclerosis. Therefore, we aimed to summarize the role of miR-126 in cancer and atherosclerosis respectively, as well as a possible association between them. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this paper, "miR-126" and "microRNA-126" are used as the first group of keywords, "atheromatosis" and "atherosclerosis" are used as the second group of keywords, and "tumor" and "cancer" are used as the third group of keywords. In PubMed, the authors selected one of the first group and the second group of keywords to search the literature related to miR-126 and cancer, and one of the first group and the third group of keywords was selected to search the literature on miR-126 and atherosclerosis. All collected articles are from 2021 and before. Irrelevant, withdrawn and review articles were excluded, and the included literature was mainly in the recent five years. RESULTS After collection and summary, miR-126 is found involved in cell apoptosis, proliferation, angiogenesis, inflammation, and other processes in both cancer and atherosclerosis by negatively targeting PI3K, VEGF, VCAM-1, EGFL7, CXCL12-CXCR4 axis, and LRP6. Moreover, we briefly review the prospects of miR-126 as a biomarker for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and atherosclerosis in clinical applications. CONCLUSIONS It has been demonstrated that miR-126 can influence cancer and atherosclerosis by affecting the same or different target genes. Therefore, it facilitates our understanding of the common prevention and treatment strategies of cancer and atherosclerosis by regulating the miR-126-target genes network.

Abstract
Objective: The investigation and research on the application status of Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient (HVPG) is very important to understand the real situation and future development of this technology in China. Methods: This study comprehensively investigated the basic situation of HVPG technology in China, including hospital distribution, hospital level, annual number of cases, catheters used, average cost, indications and existing problems. Results: According to the survey, there were 70 hospitals in China carrying out HVPG technology in 2021, distributed in 28 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central Government). A total of 4 398 cases of HVPG were performed in all the surveyed hospitals in 2021, of which 2 291 cases (52.1%) were tested by HVPG alone. The average cost of HVPG detection was (5 617.2±2 079.4) yuan. 96.3% of the teams completed HVPG detection with balloon method, and most of the teams used thrombectomy balloon catheter (80.3%). Conclusion: Through this investigation, the status of domestic clinical application of HVPG has been clarified, and it has been confirmed that many domestic medical institutions have mastered this technology, but it still needs to continue to promote and popularize HVPG technology in the future.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To predict the trends for fine-scale spread of Oncomelania hupensis based on supervised machine learning models in Shanghai Municipality, so as to provide insights into precision O. hupensis snail control. METHODS Based on 2016 O. hupensis snail survey data in Shanghai Municipality and climatic, geographical, vegetation and socioeconomic data relating to O. hupensis snail distribution, seven supervised machine learning models were created to predict the risk of snail spread in Shanghai, including decision tree, random forest, generalized boosted model, support vector machine, naive Bayes, k-nearest neighbor and C5.0. The performance of seven models for predicting snail spread was evaluated with the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), F1-score and accuracy, and optimal models were selected to identify the environmental variables affecting snail spread and predict the areas at risk of snail spread in Shanghai Municipality. RESULTS Seven supervised machine learning models were successfully created to predict the risk of snail spread in Shanghai Municipality, and random forest (AUC = 0.901, F1-score = 0.840, ACC = 0.797) and generalized boosted model (AUC= 0.889, F1-score = 0.869, ACC = 0.835) showed higher predictive performance than other models. Random forest analysis showed that the three most important climatic variables contributing to snail spread in Shanghai included aridity (11.87%), ≥ 0 °C annual accumulated temperature (10.19%), moisture index (10.18%) and average annual precipitation (9.86%), the two most important vegetation variables included the vegetation index of the first quarter (8.30%) and vegetation index of the second quarter (7.69%). Snails were more likely to spread at aridity of < 0.87, ≥ 0 °C annual accumulated temperature of 5 550 to 5 675 °C, moisture index of > 39% and average annual precipitation of > 1 180 mm, and with the vegetation index of the first quarter of > 0.4 and the vegetation index of the first quarter of > 0.6. According to the water resource developments and township administrative maps, the areas at risk of snail spread were mainly predicted in 10 townships/subdistricts, covering the Xipian, Dongpian and Tainan sections of southern Shanghai. CONCLUSIONS Supervised machine learning models are effective to predict the risk of fine-scale O. hupensis snail spread and identify the environmental determinants relating to snail spread. The areas at risk of O. hupensis snail spread are mainly located in southwestern Songjiang District, northwestern Jinshan District and southeastern Qingpu District of Shanghai Municipality.

Abstract
BackgroundGastrointestinal microbiota, particularly dysbiosis of gut microbiota composition have been correlated with the progression of autoimmune disorders, such as undifferentiated spondyloarthritis (USPA).ObjectivesThis study aimed to identify the changed gut microbiota and its relationship with lymphocyte subsets and cytokines in USPA Patients.MethodsA total of 210 participants were recruited in this study, comprising 105 USPA patients and 105 age and sex-matched healthy controls (HCs). Microbial genome was extracted from approximately 250mg fresh fecal samples from all participants using QIAamp PowerFecal DNA Kit (Qiagen). The V3-V4 variable regions of bacterial 16S rRNA genes were sequenced with the Illumina Miseq PE300 system. QIIME2 was used to process representative sequence clusters with a similarity cutoff of 100% (ASVs)1. Microbial diversity was estimated by the alpha diversity (observed, chao1, ACE, shannon, simpson, and ivsimpson) and beta diversity (bray distance). Biomarker species were identified based on STEMP between USPA and HC group. Correlations were analyzed with the Spearman rank correlation test.ResultsThe alpha-diversity indices have no significant different between two groups (P >0.05, Figure 1A). Gut microbial community structure differed between USPA and HC, as revealed by ASV Bray–Curtis distances (P <0.05, Figure 1B). As for composition of gut microbiota, there were the increased levels of Escherichia_Shigella, Flavonifractor, Hungatella in the USPA group, and Lachnospirales, Roseburia, and Lachnospiraceae in HCs (Figure 1C). The relative abundance of Lachnospiraceae_UCG_001 and Enterobacter was negatively correlated with the absolute numbers of Th17 (P<0.05). Bifidobacterium was positively correlated with the absolute number of Th1 and Tregs (P<0.01, Figure 1D). The relative abundance of Fusobacterium, Incertae_Sedis, and Colidextribacter were negatively correlated with the absolute numbers of Il-10, IL-4, and IL-2 (P<0.05). Prevotella and Enterobacter were positively correlated with the absolute number of IL-6 and IL-4 respectively (P<0.05, Figure 1E). Bifidobacterium and Bilophila were neagtively correlated with the absolute number of NK cell (P<0.05, Figure 1F).Figure 1.(A) Comparison of alpha-diversity indexs between HC and USPA groups was shown using boxplot.

Abstract
BackgroundAutoimmune diseases (AD) are a group of heterogeneous disorders caused by both genetic and environmental factors. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and Sjögrens syndrome (SS) are typical autoimmune diseases[1], Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is the most common complication of AD. Despite the extensive study of the human gut microbiome in AD complicated with PF(AD-PF),the question of whether there are common microbial features characterizing AD-PF still remains[2].ObjectivesThis study focused on exploring differences between the microbiota diversity and peripheral lymphocyte subpopulations as well as cytokine in AD with PF is different from that of AD without PF.MethodsA total of 64 AD patients (44 AD without PF and 20 AD with PF) as well as 100 age- and sex- matched healthy controls (HCs) were enrolled in this study. The peripheral lymphocyte subsets were analyzed by flow cytometry and the gut microbiota were investigated via 16s rRNA sequencing. Alpha and Beta diversity (bray curtis distance-based) analysis was used to define the difference of gut microbiota profiles between patients and HCs. To explore the specific bacterial taxa associated with AD-PF, the STAMP software was used to compare the fecal microbiota composition. Spearman correlation analysis was used to determine the similarities in the microbiota community with clinical meatures among fecal samples.ResultsThere is a decrease that the richness and diversity index between HCs, AD and AD-PF patients. Principal co-ordinates analyses suggested that these three microbiota states explained a reasonable proportion of observed variance in gut microbiota composition (ANOSIM R2 = 0.113, p < 0.001; Figure 1b). Compared with HCs, there are obvious differences among 19 species of flora in AD without PF at the genus level, of which 2 species of flora (Lachnospira,Muribaculaceae) belong to AD-PF patients were showed much fewer. The relative abundance of Lachnospira was positive correlated with the absolute numbers of Th17, IL-6 and THF-α (P<0.05,Figure 1D-E),which indicated Lachnospira may be the most critical among the AD-RF patients’ own species of flora. Therefore, the reduction of Lachnospira may influence the immune status of the intestinal tract of patients by producing less short-chain fatty acids.ConclusionOur results suggest that the decrease of Lachnospira may lead to the occurrence of AD with pulmonary interstitial fibrosis, which was closely correlated with lymphocyte subsets and Cytokines, maintaining the flora balance might be a potential therapeutic target for AD-PF.References[1]Ma Y, Shi N, Li M, Chen F, Niu H: Applications of Next-generation Sequencing in Systemic Autoimmune Diseases.

Abstract
BackgroundSecondary Sjogren’s syndrome(SS) is a common extra-articular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA)[1]. RA patients combined with SS have different outcomes from those without SS[2]. However, the studies investigated the characteristics of gut microbiota in patients with RA and SS is limited.ObjectivesTo investigate the characteristics of gut microbiome and the associations between flora and peripheral lymphocyte subpopulations in RA patients with or without Sjogren’s syndrome.MethodsA total of 326 samples from 145 RA patients without SS, 23 RA combined with SS patients(RA-SS) and 168 healthy controls (HCs) were recruit in this study from The Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University (Taiyuan, Shanxi, China). The gut microbiota were investigated via 16s rRNA sequencing and the peripheral T lymphocyte subsets of these participants were assessed by flow cytometry. The Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used to compare alpha diversity indicesbetween groups. Differential abundance analysis was carried out the STAMP software. Spearman’s correlation analysis was used to assess the correlations between the relative abundances of bacterial genera and clinical meatures.ResultsPatients with RA and RA-SS exhibited a significant reduction in the richness and diversity of gut microbiota compared with those of HCs (Figure 1 A-B, p < 0.05), whereas there was no significant difference between RA and RA-SS patients. Principal co-ordinates analyses based on bray curtis distance suggested that these there microbiota states explained a definable proportion of observed variance in microbiota composition (ANOSIM R2 = 0.074, p < 0.001; Figure 1 C). Compared with HCs, 58 species of flora were discovered to be distinctly different in RA patients without SS at the genus level of which 6 species of flora unique to RA-SS patients were presented much fewer ([Eubacterium]_hallii_group, Anaerostipes, CAG-56, Fusobacterium, Turicibacter and Enterococcus). Among these RA-SS patients‘ unique species of flora, it seems that Turicibacter is the key species of flora, owing to whose has a positive correlation with most of lymphocytes such as T, B, CD4+T, CD8+T and NK cells suggesting a close association with intestinal immunity.(Figure 1 F-G,P<0.05)ConclusionRA patients with deficiency of Turicibacter in flora had higer occurrence of Sjögren’s syndrome sjogren’s syndrome complication, which was correlated with peripherial lymphocyte subpopulations and cytokines.References[1]Chen Y, Ma C, Liu L, He J, Zhu C, Zheng F, Dai W, Hong X, Liu D, Tang D et al: Analysis of gut microbiota and metabolites in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and identification of potential biomarkers.

Abstract
BackgroundAn increasing number of autoimmune disorders (AD) have been associated with microbial dysbiosis[1, 2]. However, this dysbiosis is difficult to characterize for individual patients owing to the high heterogeneity of the gut microbiota. Thus, researchers must find an accurate method of characterizing the AD gut microbiota that is meaningful to clinical diagnosis.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to investigate the enterotype characters of intestinal flora in AD and their associations with peripheral lymphocyte subpopulations and cytokines.MethodsA total of 339 AD patients and 339 age- and sex- matched healthy controls (HCs) were enrolled in this study. Mathematical modeling using Dirichlet multinomial mixtures (DMM) was applied to describe the variability in the microbiome data and cluster samples into enterotypes. The peripheral lymphocyte subsets were detected by flow cytometry and the cytokines were assessed by ELISA. Differential abundance analysis was carried out the STAMP software. R (version 4.1.0) was used for comparative statistics, and spearman’s correlation analysis was used to assess the correlations between the relative abundances of bacterial genera and clinical variables.ResultsLaplace approximation of DMM suggested gut microbiota of AD patients and HCs both can be divided into two distinct enterotypes (Figure 1 A-B), and AD E1 and HC E1 were primarily dominated by Prevotella while AD E2 and HC E2 by Bacteroides. Interestingly, the Prevotella-enriched enterotype (AD E1 and HC E1) had a higher alpha diversity than The Bacteroides-enriched enterotype (AD E2 and HC E2). Patients with AD always had a lower richness and diversity compared with those of HCs in each enterotype (p< 0.001), suggesting gut microbiome was markedly less diverse in composition in AD. Bray curtis distance-based beta-diversity were also different (P<0.001, ANOSIM.R =0.23, Figure 1 C-H). Significant differences in gut microbiota composition at the genus level between AD patients and HCs were found using the STAMP software in each enterotype. Compared with HCs, 37 species in AD E1 patients and 40 species in AD E2 patients of flora were discovered to be distinctly different. In the co-upregulated flora of both enterotypes, Lactobacillus was inversely associated with a variety of lymphocytes such as T, CD4+T, NK, Th2, Th17, Treg cells(P<0.05), and positive correlation with IL-10 and IFN-γ(P<0.05,Figure 1 I). However, in the co-downregulated floras Coprococcus had a positive correlation with B, NK and Treg cells, and anaerostipes had a negativate corrleation with IL-2 and IL-4(P<0.05,Figure 1 J).ConclusionThere were both two enterotypes in patients and HCs with autoimmune disease, E2 exhibited a loss of Prevotella but a growth of Bacteroides, while E1 presented the opposite results, which were closely correlated with peripheral lymphocyte subsets and cytokines.References[1]Levy M, Thaiss CA, Zeevi D, Dohnalová L, Zilberman-Schapira G, Mahdi JA, David E, Savidor A, Korem T, Herzig Y et al: Microbiota-Modulated Metabolites Shape the Intestinal Microenvironment by Regulating NLRP6 Inflammasome Signaling.

Abstract
BackgroundIguratimod (IGU), as one of the conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (csDMARDs), has been approved by National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) to treat Rheumatoid arthritis (RA).ObjectivesThis study aimed to compare the cost-effectiveness of well-established RA therapies using a claims-based algorithm in RA patients.MethodsAn electronic medical record (EMR) database from Zhujiang Hospital was utilized to estimate the cost-effectiveness of medication for RA patients, including IGU with MTX, biological DMARDs (bDMARDs) with MTX, and MTX alone for more than 6 months from 2014 to 2020. Patients who were deemed effective must meet all the following criteria according to the algorithm, high adherence; no bDMARDs or IGU switch or addition; no prescription of new csDMARDs; no increase in dose or frequency of index drug; no new use of chronic glucocorticoids or increase in glucocorticoid dose; and no more than one glucocorticoid injection. Average cost was calculated by summing total cost of effective treatment and dividing by number of patients achieving efficacy in each group.ResultsA total of 263 patients were included in the analysis. Based on a claims-based algorithm, the effective rate was 27.1 % (26/96) for IGU with MTX group, 11.2% (7/62) for bDMARDs with MTX group, and 13.3% (14/105) for MTX alone group, respectively. Average cost of effective treatment was $833.46 for IGU with MTX therapy, $2554.57 for bDMARDs with MTX therapy, and $171.48 for MTX alone (Table 1).Table 1.Effectiveness and Cost per Effectively Treated Patient with RACriteriaAll patients (n=263)IGU with MTX group(n=96)bDMARDs with MTX group (n=62)MTX (n=105)Effectiveness:no. of patients (%)a47(17.87%)26 (27.1%)7 (11.2/%)14 (13.3%)Cost of all RA-related medication per effectively treated patient(SD)$892.75(911.57)$833.46 (252.67)$2554.5 (1273.13)$171.4 (110.33)Average cost of all RA medications postindex (excluding biologic DMARDs) per patient (SD)b$146.38(114.60)$148.81 (123.12)$86.90 (74.53)$171.4 (110.33)Average cost of only biologicDMARDs postindex per patient (SD)b$746.38(926.35)$684.27(188.67)$2468.67(1285.91)/a χ2showed significant difference in percentage effectiveness for the original algorithm (p<0.05).bMedication cost was 2020 U.S. dollars.ConclusionIGU with MTX therapy was revealed to be both effective and modestly priced, which seemed to be a cost-effective strategy for RA therapy and warranted further cost-effectiveness investigation.References[1](2018) [2018 Chinese guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of rheumatoid arthritis].

Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate the efficacy and safety of modified suture-assisted canaloplasty in Asians with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). METHODS A prospective, consecutive cases study, evaluating a modified canaloplasty by twisted 6/0 suture was performed on Asian POAG patients. Three modifications of this canaloplasty included opening the Schlemm's canal by viscocanalostomy, circumferential probing by a twisted 6/0 suture and loose suture of the superficial scleral flap. The twisted 6/0 suture was selected as a prober based on characteristical analysis of size and contact measurement as well as chemical composition conducted among 5/0, twisted 6/0 polypropylene sutures and the microcatheter. Success criteria were defined as intraocular pressure (IOP) ≤ 21 mmHg, 18 mmHg, 15 mmHg, and ≥ 20% reduction without (complete success) or with medications (qualified success). Efficacy was assessed by the success rate of circumferential catheterization, IOP values, the success rate of the surgery, the number of IOP-lowering medications, best-corrected vision acuity (BCVA), cup-to-disc ratio (C/D), and mean deviation (MD). Safety was evaluated by adverse events. RESULTS Forty eyes from 40 consecutive patients were included with a mean follow-up of 14.8 ± 3.0 months. Circumferential catheterization was successfully conducted in 36 eyes (90%). Mean IOP decreased from 26.2 ± 6.9 mmHg to 14.5 ± 2.7 mmHg at 12 months postoperatively. While medication numbers were reduced from 3.2 ± 0.6 to 0.5 ± 0.8 at month 12 (both p < 0.001). Qualified success rate was 97.2% [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.92-1.03], 86.1% (95% CI 0.74-0.98) and 66.7% (95% CI 0.51-0.83) at 12 months with three criteria. BCVA, C/D and MD did not show progression at 1-year follow-up (p > 0.05). Age, baseline IOP, and spherical equivalent negatively influenced the success rate significantly (all p < 0.05). Adverse events included hyphema (30.6%), IOP spike > 25 mmHg (8.3%), and peripheral synechia to the trabecular-Descemet's membrane (2.7%). CONCLUSION Twisted 6/0 suture can be an ideal material for cannulation. Modified suture-assisted canaloplasty is an effective, safe alternative with a cost-efficient feature for patients with POAG, especially in developing countries. TRIAL REGISTRATION This trial was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry ( ChiCTR1900028618 , 29/12/2019).

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the efficacy and safety of viscocanalostomy plus near-360-degree suture trabeculotomy (VST) with viscocanalostomy plus rigid probe trabeculotomy (VT) in treating primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) over a one-year follow-up. METHODS This consecutive retrospective study included patients with PCG confirmed within 3 years of age from March 2017 to October 2019. Efficacy was evaluated by comparing the postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) curve and the success rate at one year after surgery. Safety was assessed by comparing the postoperative complications. The number of anti-glaucoma agents, horizontal corneal diameter (HCD) and cup-to-disc ratio (C/D) of the two surgical methods were also compared. RESULTS Data of 90 eyes from 61 patients were analysed. The baseline parameters of the two groups were similar. The IOP at 12 months after surgery in the VST group was 12.7 ± 4.8 mmHg, while that in the VT group was 15.8 ± 6.5 mmHg. The IOP at 6, 9 and 12 months postoperatively in the VST group was significantly lower than in the VT group (p < 0.05). Viscocanalostomy plus near-360-degree suture trabeculotomy (VST) remained a significant favourable factor for complete one-year success (93.6% versus 74.4%, p = 0.005) but not qualified one-year success (97.9% versus 88.4%, p = 0.06). The number of anti-glaucoma agents, HCD and C/D were reduced in both groups. Postoperative complications were not significantly different between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS In children with PCG, VST provides a more durable IOP control than VT over the one-year follow-up, with a similar safety profile.

Abstract
A blueprint on Shanghai's ecological space design between 2021 and 2035 was released in 2021, aiming to build an ecological city and improve the development of ecological civilization. The transmission of parasitic diseases is strongly associated with climate and ecological environments. Currently, the prevalence of parasitic diseases has been maintained at extremely low-transmission levels, and there are almost no local cases; however, the alteration of ecological environments may results in a potential transmission risk of parasitic diseases. Hereby, the current status of key parasitic diseases in Shanghai Municipality was described, and the potential transmission risk of parasitic diseases and responses to this risk were analyzed during the construction of an ecological city in Shanghai Municipality. In addition, the suggestions pertaining to surveillance and management of parasitic diseases were proposed during the mid- and long-term construction of an ecological city in Shanghai Municipality.
