Abstract
Plate-type hollow black TiO2 (HL/BT) with a high NIR reflectance was fabricated for the first time as a LiDAR-detectable black material. A TiO2 layer was formed on commercial-grade glass by using the sol-gel method to obtain a plate-type structure. The glass template was then etched with hydrofluoric acid to form a hollow structure, and blackness was further achieved through NaBH4 reduction, which altered the oxidation state of TiO2 to black TixO2x-1 or Ti4+ to Ti3+ and Ti2+. The blackness of the HL/BT material was maintained by a novel approach that involved etching prior to reduction. The thickness of the TiO2 layer was controlled to maximize the NIR reflectance when applied as paint. The HL/BT material with a thickness of 140 nm (HL/BT140) showed a blackness (L*) of 13.3 and high NIR reflectance of 23.6% at a wavelength of 905 nm. This is attributed to the effective light reflection at the interface created by the TiO2 layer and the hollow structure. Plate-type HL/BT140 provides excellent spreadability, durability, and thermal stability in practical paint applications compared with sphere-type materials due to the higher contacting area to the applied surface, making it suitable for use as a LiDAR-detectable inorganic black pigment in autonomous environments.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Surface modification of dielectric materials changes the dipole-dipole interactions under electric fields, thereby controlling the electrorheological (ER) response. The introduction of metal oxides onto mica templates and further coating of dyes is expected to simultaneously improve the color clarity and ER performance. EXPERIMENTS Dye-coated TiO2 platelets on mica are synthesized for high-performance colorful ER fluids. A sol-gel method is utilized to grow TiO2 on mica to prepare precursor light-colored mica/TiO2 materials, which are coated with appropriate dyes to enhance the vividness as determined by the Commission Internationale de clairage L*a*b* color system. The color expression and color clarity improvement are explained via the light interference effect and the presence of chromophores. FINDINGS The uniform TiO2 layers can be obtained under low pH conditions with controlled nucleation kinetics. The addition of dyes to TiO2 increases the surface area and porosity of ER materials and introduces heteroatoms that act as positive factors. In practical ER applications, dye-coated TiO2-based ER fluids exhibit higher ER performances compared with the corresponding light-colored TiO2-based ER fluids. The vivid-colored ER fluids could provide an easy selection for a wide range of rheological systems requiring a specific magnitude of stress by confirming the color.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the acceleration of somatic driver gene discovery facilitated by recent large-scale tumor sequencing data, the contribution of inherited variants remains largely unexplored, primarily focusing on previously known cancer predisposition genes (CPGs) due to the low statistical power associated with detecting rare pathogenic variant-phenotype associations. METHODS Here, we introduce a generalized log-regression model to measure the excess of pathogenic variants within genes in cancer patients compared to control samples. It aims to measure gene-level cancer risk enrichment by collapsing rare pathogenic variants after controlling the population differences across samples. RESULTS In this study, we investigate whether pathogenic variants in Mendelian disease-associated genes (OMIM genes) are enriched in cancer patients compared to controls. Utilizing data from PCAWG and the 1,000 Genomes Project, we identify 103 OMIM genes demonstrating significant enrichment of pathogenic variants in cancer samples (FDR 20%). Through an integrative approach considering three distinct properties, we classify these CPG-like OMIM genes into four clusters, indicating potential diverse mechanisms underlying tumor progression. Further, we explore the function of PAH (a key metabolic enzyme associated with Phenylketonuria), the gene exhibiting the highest prevalence of pathogenic variants in a pan-cancer (1.8%) compared to controls (0.6%). CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest a possible cancer progression mechanism through metabolic profile alterations. Overall, our data indicates that pathogenic OMIM gene variants contribute to cancer progression and introduces new CPG classifications potentially underpinning diverse tumorigenesis mechanisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lysosomes are closely linked to autophagic activity, which plays a vital role in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) biology. The survival of PDAC patients is still poor, and the identification of novel genetic factors for prognosis and treatment is highly required to prevent PDAC-related deaths. This study investigated the germline variants related to lysosomal dysfunction in patients with PDAC and to analyze whether they contribute to the development of PDAC. METHODS The germline putative pathogenic variants (PPV) in genes involved in lysosomal storage disease (LSD) was compared between patients with PDAC (n = 418) and healthy controls (n = 845) using targeted panel and whole-exome sequencing. Furthermore, pancreatic organoids from wild-type and KrasG12D mice were used to evaluate the effect of lysosomal dysfunction on PDAC development. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis was performed with established PDAC patient-derived organoids (PDOs) according to the PPV status. RESULTS The PPV in LSD-related genes was higher in patients with PDAC than in healthy controls (8.13 vs. 4.26%, Log2 OR = 1.65, P = 3.08 × 10-3). The PPV carriers of LSD-related genes with PDAC were significantly younger than the non-carriers (mean age 61.5 vs. 65.3 years, P = 0.031). We further studied a variant of the lysosomal enzyme, galactosylceramidase (GALC), which was the most frequently detected LSD variant in our cohort. Autophagolysosomal activity was hampered when GALC was downregulated, which was accompanied by paradoxically elevated autophagic flux. Furthermore, the number of proliferating Ki-67+ cells increased significantly in pancreatic organoids derived from Galc knockout KrasG12D mice. Moreover, GALC PPV carriers tended to show drug resistance in both PDAC cell line and PDAC PDO, and RNA-seq analysis revealed that various metabolism and gene repair pathways were upregulated in PDAC PDOs harboring a GALC variant. CONCLUSIONS Genetically defined lysosomal dysfunction is frequently observed in patients with young-onset PDAC. This might contribute to PDAC development by altering metabolism and impairing autophagolysosomal activity, which could be potentially implicated in therapeutic applications for PDAC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vietnam-era veterans were exposed to Agent Orange (AO), which is associated with a high prevalence of Parkinson's disease (PD). However, little is known about the development of PD-like symptoms caused by drug-induced parkinsonism (DIP) in such populations. This study aimed to investigate PD incidence and PD risk following exposure to AO or DIP-risk drugs in veterans. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted using 12 years (2009-2020) of electronic medical records of the Veterans Health Service Medical Center, the largest Veterans Affairs hospital in South Korea (n = 37,246; 100% male; age, 65.57 ± 8.12 years). Exposure to AO or DIP-risk drugs, including antipsychotic, prokinetic, anti-epileptic, dopamine-depleting and anti-anginal agents, was assessed in veterans with PD, operationally defined as having a PD diagnosis and one or more prescriptions for PD treatment. The PD risk was calculated using multiple logistic regression analysis adjusted for age and comorbidities. RESULTS The rates of DIP-risk drug use and AO exposure were 37.92% and 62.62%, respectively. The PD incidence from 2010 to 2020 was 3.08%; 1.30% with neither exposure, 1.63% with AO exposure, 4.38% with DIP-risk drug use, and 6.33% with both. Combined exposure to AO and DIP-risk drugs increased the PD risk (adjusted odds ratio = 1.68, 95% confidence interval, 1.36-2.08, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The PD incidence was 1.31 times higher with AO exposure alone and 1.68 times higher with AO exposure and DIP-risk drug use. The results suggest the necessity for careful monitoring and DIP-risk drug prescription in patients with AO exposure.

Abstract
This analysis aims to see whether 6-shogaol could protect rats against D-galactosamine (D-GalN)-induced Hepatotoxicity. The Wistar rats were divided into four groups (n=6). Group 1 received a standard diet, Group 2 received an oral administration of 6-shogaol (20 mg/kg b.wt), Group 3 received an intraperitoneal injection of D-GalN (400 mg/kg b.wt) on 21st day, and Group 4 received an oral administration of 6-shogaol (20mg/kg b.wt) for 21 days and D-GalN (400 mg/kg b.wt) injection only on 21st day. The hepatic marker enzymes activity, lipid peroxidative markers level increased significantly and antioxidant activity/level significantly reduced in D-GalN-induced rats. 6-shogaol Pretreatment effectively improves the above changes in D-GalN-induced rats. Further, inflammatory marker expression and MAPK signaling molecules were downregulated by 6-shogaol. These findings showed that 6-shogaol exerts hepatoprotective effects via the enhanced antioxidant system and attenuated the inflammation and MAPK signaling pathway in D-GalN-induced rats.

Abstract
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) provides a relatively safe and noninvasive option for treating benign thyroid nodules and thyroid cancer that is cosmetically superior to surgery. Following a loss of consciousness 1 h after thyroid RFA, a 56-year-old patient was transferred to the emergency room. Despite undergoing coronary angiography due to 3 cardiac arrests, the results were normal. Although brain, chest, and abdominal computed tomography scans were performed, the emergency physician failed to detect any hematoma formation. Despite the use of mechanical ventilation and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, the patient exhibited persistent hypoventilation. It was later discovered that an aggravated massive hemorrhage had occurred, due to which inferior thyroid artery embolization and surgical hematoma evacuation were performed. Unfortunately, prolonged brain hypoperfusion resulting from airway compromise and common carotid artery occlusion resulted in brain death and, ultimately, the patient's demise. In conclusion, massive hemorrhages caused by RFA require immediate diagnosis and hemostasis.

Abstract
AIM To develop and validate a predictive model based on 2-[18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose (18F-FDG) positron-emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) radiomics features and clinicopathological parameters to preoperatively identify microvascular invasion (MVI) and perineural invasion (PNI), which are important predictors of poor prognosis in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). MATERIALS AND METHODS Preoperative 18F-FDG PET/CT images and clinicopathological parameters of 170 patients in PDAC were collected retrospectively. The whole tumour and its peritumoural variants (tumour dilated with 3, 5, and 10 mm pixels) were applied to add tumour periphery information. A feature-selection algorithm was employed to mine mono-modality and fused feature subsets, then conducted binary classification using gradient boosted decision trees. RESULTS For MVI prediction, the model performed best on a fused subset of 18F-FDG PET/CT radiomics features and two clinicopathological parameters, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 83.08%, accuracy of 78.82%, recall of 75.08%, precision of 75.5%, and F1-score of 74.59%. For PNI prediction, the model achieved best prediction results only on the subset of PET/CT radiomics features, with AUC of 94%, accuracy of 89.33%, recall of 90%, precision of 87.81%, and F1 score of 88.35%. In both models, 3 mm dilation on the tumour volume produced the best results. CONCLUSIONS The radiomics predictors from preoperative 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging exhibited instructive predictive efficacy in the identification of MVI and PNI status preoperatively in PDAC. Peritumoural information was shown to assist in MVI and PNI predictions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Anaemia during pregnancy is a significant public health problem that adversely impacts both the mother and foetus. However, the factors influencing maternal anaemia in deprived areas of Northwestern China have not yet been thoroughly investigated. This study aimed to describe the prevalence and potential influencing factors of anaemia among expectant mothers in rural areas of Northwestern China. STUDY DESIGN This was a cross-sectional survey. METHODS A cross-sectional survey of 586 expectant mothers was conducted to investigate the prevalence of anaemia, prenatal healthcare coverage, dietary diversity and nutrient supplementation intake. The study population was selected from the sample areas using a random sampling method. Data were collected through a questionnaire, and haemoglobin concentrations were measured by a capillary blood test. RESULTS The results show that 34.8% of the study population were anaemic, with 13% having moderate-to-severe anaemia. The results of the regression analysis showed that diet was not significantly associated with haemoglobin concentrations or the prevalence of anaemia. However, regular prenatal healthcare attendance was found to be an important influencing factor for both haemoglobin concentration (β = 3.67, P = 0.002) and the prevalence of anaemia (odds ratio = 0.59, P = 0.011). CONCLUSIONS Pregnant women receiving regular prenatal care were less likely to be anaemic; thus, it is essential to implement strategies to improve attendance at maternal public health services to reduce the prevalence of maternal anaemia.

Abstract
Auricularia cornea var. Li. is a natural mutation strain of A. cornea which has been preferred by consumers for its white colour, good taste and pharmacological properties (Rebecca et al. 2020). In October 2021, a disease with symptoms similar to that of cobweb disease (Carrasco et al. 2017) was observed in A. cornea var. Li. in four mushroom farms in Fangshan District (115.83°E, 39.55°N), Beijing, China, infecting 20% of the fruiting bodies (Fig. 1A-D). White cottony mycelia formed typically on the casing soil and they gradually spread to the stipes and pileus, covering the whole fruiting body, which eventually died and lost commodity value. Cultures were obtained by aseptically transferring the diseased fruiting bodies onto potato dextrose agar (PDA); they were deposited in the culture collection (ID: JZBQA3) of the Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences, China. The colonies were floccose with aerial mycelium white. Purplish grey diffusing pigments occasionally formed on the reverse side of the plate at 25 °C (Fig. 2A-B). Conidiophores arising in aerial mycelium, indefinite in length, branches septate, each cell producing denticulate conidiogenous loci, each denticle bearing a single conidium. Conidia mostly oblong to ellipsoidal, smooth, (9.0-)9.9-17.0(-18.0)×(6.0-)6.9-10.2 μm (n = 60), 0~1 septate (Fig. 2C-E). Chlamydospores forming as lateral branches of hyphae were commonly observed, globose, ellipsoid or oblong, 14.8-22×14.7-19.6 μm, l/w = 1.0-1.3 (Fig. 2F-G). The morphological characteristics were consistent with that of Hypomyces mycophilus, whose anamorph was Cladobotryum polypori (Rogerson et al. 1993, Zeng et al. 2017). For further species identification, genomic DNA was extracted using the DNeasy Plant Mini Kit (Qiagen, USA). The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions and large subunit ribosomal RNA (LSU) genes were amplified using the primer pairs ITS1/ITS4 (White et al. 1990) and LROR/LR5 (Bhattacharya et al. 2000), respectively. The sequences were deposited in GenBank with accession numbers OP430530 and OP430531. BLAST nucleotide searches showed more than 99% homology with corresponding sequences of Hypomyces mycophilus HMAS 275554 and CBS 175.56. Phylogenetic trees based on ITS and LSU revealed that the strain JZBQA3 was grouped with H. mycophilus with high support value (Fig. 3). A in vivo pathogenicity test was performed using eight mushroom sticks with healthy fruiting bodies in triplicate. Each four sticks were sprayed with conidial suspension (108 spores/mL) of strain JZBQA3 or sterile distilled water, respectively, and maintained in an artificial climate chamber at 25-26°C. Cobweb-like characteristics were observed on the fruiting bodies treated with the JZBQA3 conidial suspension 2-3 days after inoculation, while those treated with sterile distilled water remained symptomless (Fig. 4 A-B). The same pathogen was re-isolated and confirmed from the infected fruiting bodies by integrated analysis of morphological characteristics and gene sequencing data, fulfilling Koch's postulates. Hypomyces mycophilus was first reported on Trametes versicolor in North Carolina (Rogerson et al. 1993), and is the causal agent of cobweb diseases on Auricularia heimuer (Zhang et al. 2023). To our knowledge, this is the first report of cobweb disease caused by H. mycophilus in A. cornea var. Li. This finding is a valuable contribution to the knowledge of cobweb disease development in edible fungi.

Abstract
The important but remained issue to be addressed to achieve the mass production of perovskite solar modules include a large-area fabrication of high-quality perovskite film with eco-friendly, viable production methods. Although several efforts are made to achieve large-area fabrication of perovskite, the development of eco-friendly solvent system, which is precisely designed to be fit to scale-up methods are still challenging. Herein, this work develops the eco-friendly solvent/co-solvent system to produce a high-quality perovskite layer with a bathing in eco-friendly antisolvent. The new co-solvent/additive, methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), efficiently improves the overall solubility and has a suitable binding strength to the perovskite precursor, resulting in a high-quality perovskite film with antisolvent bathing method in large area. The resultant perovskite solar cells showed high power conversion efficiency of over 24% (in reverse scan), with a good long-term stability under continuous light illumination or damp-heat condition. MSM is also beneficial to produce a perovskite layer at low-temperature or high-humidity. MSM-based solvent system is finally applied to large-area, resulting in highly efficiency perovskite solar modules with PCE of 19.9% (by aperture) or 21.2% (by active area) in reverse scan. These findings contribute to step forward to a mass production of perovskite solar modules with eco-friendly way.

Abstract
Cross sections for the neutrons around 14 MeV interaction with natural titanium were precisely measured by neutron activation and off-line measurement technique. The fast neutrons were produced by 3H(d,n)4He reaction and the neutron energy was obtained by using the cross section ratio method of 90Zr(n,2n)89Zr to 93Nb(n,2n)92mNb reactions. Experimental cross sections have been acquired for natTi(n,x)46Sc, natTi(n,x)47Sc, 50Ti(n,x)47Ca and 48Ti(n,x)48Sc reactions. The measured cross section data are compared with the experimental data available in the previous literature and evaluated nuclear data from the ENDF/B-VIII.0, JEFF-3.3, JENDL-5, BROND-3.1, CENDL-3.2 and FENDL-3.2b libraries. Furthermore, excitation functions for these reactions were calculated by using the theoretical model based on Talys-1.96 code with default and adjusted parameters. Within experimental error, evaluated nuclear data are mostly consistent with experimental data. The excitation function with adjusted parameters can roughly reproduce the experimental data.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The quality of primary care is important for health outcomes among residents in China. There is evidence that internal work motivation improves the quality of healthcare provided by clinicians. However, few empirical studies have examined the relationship between internal work motivation and clinical performance among village clinicians in rural China. This study was performed to evaluate healthcare quality among village clinicians, then explore its relationships with internal work motivation among those clinicians. METHODS We collected survey data using a standardised patient method and a structured questionnaire. We observed 225 interactions between standardised patients and village clinicians from 21 counties in three provinces. We used logistic regression models to analyse the relationships between work motivation and healthcare quality, then conducted heterogeneity analysis. RESULTS Healthcare quality among village clinicians was generally low. There was a significantly positive correlation between internal work motivation and healthcare quality among village clinicians (P<0.1). Additionally, the positive effect of internal work motivation on healthcare quality was strongest among clinicians who received financial incentives and had a lighter workload (fewer patients per month) [P<0.1]. CONCLUSION Healthcare quality among village clinicians requires urgent improvement. We recommend implementing financial incentives to stimulate internal work motivation among village clinicians, thus improving their clinical performance.

Abstract
As the discussion of first-line anagrelide treatment is ongoing, we aimed to prospectively examine the efficacy and safety of anagrelide in cytoreduction therapy-naïve high risk essential thrombocythemia (ET) patients in Korea. Seventy patients from 12 centers were treated with anagrelide monotherapy for up to 8 weeks, followed up until 24 months. At week 8, 50.0% of the patients were able to achieve platelet < 600 x 109/L, and by 12 months, 55/70 (78.6%) patients stayed on anagrelide, and 40.0% patients showed platelet normalization. 14 patients required additional hydroxyurea (HU) for cytoreduction. The median daily dose of needed HU was 500mg (range 250mg - 1500mg). The efficacy was independent of the somatic mutation status. There were 4 thromboembolic events and 7 bleeding events during the follow-up period. The most common adverse events associated with anagrelide use were headache, followed by palpitation/chest discomfort, edema and generalized weakness/fatigue. 7 patients wished to discontinue anagrelide treatment due to adverse events (3 due to headache; 2 due to edema; 1 due to palpitation and 1 due to skin eruption). All in all, first-line anagrelide treatment showed a favorable response with tolerable safety profiles regardless of somatic mutation status.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Primary healthcare in rural China is underutilised, especially in village clinics in Southwest China. The aim of this study was to explore any relationships among the ethnicity of the healthcare provider, the clinical competence of the healthcare provider, and the utilisation of village clinics in Southwest China. METHODS This cross-sectional survey study involved 330 village healthcare providers from three prefectures in Yunnan Province in 2017. Multiple logistic regressions were adopted to investigate the utilisation of primary healthcare among different ethnic healthcare providers. RESULTS Primary healthcare utilisation was higher in village clinics where healthcare providers were Han Chinese than those where healthcare providers were ethnic minority (151 vs 101, P=0.008). The logistic regression analysis showed that clinical competence was positively associated with the utilisation of primary healthcare (odds ratio [OR]=1.49, 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.12-2.00; P=0.007) and that inadequate clinical competence of ethnic minority health workers may lead to a lag in the utilisation of primary healthcare (OR=0.45, 95% CI=0.23-0.89; P=0.022). CONCLUSION Our results confirm differences in the utilisation of primary healthcare in rural Yunnan Province among healthcare providers of different ethnicities. Appropriate enhancements of clinical competence could be conducive to improving the utilisation of primary healthcare, especially among ethnic minority healthcare providers.

Abstract
Abstract
We are focusing on the germline mutation data to understand the possible cancer-causing gene mutation that has a chance of inheritability to the next generation. Cancer genomics has been already widely studied around the world in a pan-cancer manner. But we found that the majority of the ethnicity of the data sequenced is mainly the US and European origin. For the Korean cancer cohort, it is clear that the lack of sample size was the bottleneck for ethnicity-specific studies. It is necessary that there is a limited number of the study contribute to the knowledge that Korean specifically applicated to explore the possible association between germline mutation and cancer occurrences. The objective of this study is to discover the Korean-specific candidate genes that associate with the tumor.Our study collected around 3000 Korean-specific samples consisting of various cancer types and normal control. We also gathered normal control samples for 354 Super-Normal (tumor-free, age < 65, med-checked) samples, and 1094 Korean normal (U1K) samples. Whole Exome Sequencing has been applied for every sample except U1K cohort that has already been whole genome sequenced. Genome-Wide Association Test (GWAS) has been executed between Korean-specific cancer patients and Korean normal samples. The study has been dichotomously analyzed, common variants are studied by GWAS fashion, and the rare variants are studied by gene-level aggregated fashion. Not only statistically, but also functionally we make use of the knowledge that Nonsense Mediated Decay (NMD) information to break the limitation of the unexplained gene mutation that does not follow the Central Dogma. Clinical validation data is also utilized. In a clinical aspect, we validated the dataset with a Clinvar and decided whether the mutation has a piece of clinical evidence or not.By conducting a series of studies, we have successfully found that some candidate genes which are known for DNA binding genes including PABPC1, PABPC3, and ZNF717 were significantly associated. Indeed, a cell division cycle associated gene like CDC27 also represents a significant association with cancer phenotype. Furthermore, ATXN3, SEPT2, PCMTD1 mutation is observed more in the cancer cohort. We are performing comparison studies to further elucidate which ethnic group represents more gene mutation on different cancer types.In summary, we propose the method that presents the possible germline mutation that is associated with phenotype by various factors, and also proposed Korean-specific candidate genes that associate with cancer.

Abstract
Abstract
Lysosome storage disease (LSD) is a congenital metabolic disorder caused by mutations in genes involved in the function of lysosomes. Defects in the genes encoding hydrolases and transporters and enzyme activators are found in LSD’s, leading to the accumulation of macromolecules in the late endocytic system. And this disruption of lysosomal homeostasis increases the induction of endoplasmic reticulum and oxidative stress, proliferative signal transduction, extracellular matrix degradation, Integrin-β4-mediated cell migration and invasion, and consequently can promote the development of oncogenic cells and malignant tumors. It is known that the function of lysosomes is very important in cancer diseases. Recently, through a preliminary study, we found that the incidence of myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) increases statistically significantly when the LSD putative pathogenic germline variant (PPGV) is present. Based on this, we performed single-cell RNA (scRNA) sequencing using MPN patient samples of both LSD PPGV carrier and non-carrier. We tried to determine how the LSD PPGV affects MPN cancer progression at the single-cell level. To confirm functional differences between the two groups, DEG, pathway enrichment, LR-pair interaction, and transcription enrichment analyses were performed. In the analysis, immune cells were composed of T-cell, NK-cell, and Monocyte (in the order of frequency). It was confirmed that Lysosome-related (ER, Golgi, etc.) functions were upregulated in the carrier group compared to the non-carrier group across cell types. In addition, in the ligand-receptor (LR)-pair interaction analysis targeting Immune cells, it was possible to find a statistically significant difference (average log2 fold change>0.7 and p-value<0.05) candidate LR-pair (IL6-IL6R*IL6ST) that upregulates in the carrier group compared to the non-carrier group. The candidate LR-pair found by our team has been previously known as a cytokine-related gene that plays an inflammatory or fibrosis-related role in MPN and affects cancer progression. Also, in the Transcription Factor Enrichment analysis conducted together, it was confirmed that the statistically significant (NES>2 and FDR<0.01) candidate Transcription Factor (STAT1), which operates dependent on the candidate LR-pair, is upregulated. In conclusion, we found the possibility that genes and functions related to cancer progression can be up-regulated by LSD germline variants. In addition, we plan to conduct additional studies to determine the exact mechanism of contribution to cancer development by the LSD germline variant.

Abstract
Abstract
Inborn Errors of Metabolism (IEMs) are a hereditary disorder in which a gene fails to operate correctly as a result of a mutation in a metabolic-related gene passed down from the parents. Majority of IEMs are inherited in autosomal recessive manner. Recent research has been undertaken on mutations in numerous metabolic genes, including IEMs and cancer development. This study used Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) data to confirm the link between metabolic-related genes and cancer development in heterozygous carriers. The PCAWG (Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes) cancer patient cohort and the 1000G (1000 Genomes) healthy cohort were used in this work, with the TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas) cancer patient cohorts being used for validation analysis. A regression analysis was used to determine the statistical significance of the cancer patient group versus the normal cohort. We analyzed RNA-seq data by separating heterozygous carrier and non-carrier groups of IEM related genes. The proportion of IEM gene heterozygote carriers was higher in cancer patients than in the normal population. We chose genes showing similar patterns of occurrence with statistical significance across several cancer patient cohorts. Accordingly, the most important gene, phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH), has been established, and the carrier frequency was consistently high in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC). RNA analysis results revealed that the PAH heterozygous carrier group was enriched with various immune response pathways suggesting inflammation related carcinogenesis in PAH related LUSC. Our finding suggest that heterozygote carrier status of IEM genes may lead to generation of aberrant metabolites and the breakdown of metabolic networks, which eventually leads to cancer.

Abstract
Objective: To screen and perform preliminary clinical validation of biomarkers of activity based on positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET-CT) and transcriptomics in sputum-negative pulmonary tuberculosis lesion tissue. Methods: Nine patients with sputum-negative pulmonary tuberculosis treated surgically at the Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center for Thoracic Surgery from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2019 were retrospectively collected as the discovery group, including four males and five females, aged 20-57 years (mean 36 years). All of the patients underwent PET-CT scanning before surgery, and the resected specimens were postoperatively classified according to preoperative PET-CT. The resected specimens were divided into areas with increased fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) metabolism (SUVmax>3) and areas with normal FDG metabolism (SUVmax ≤ 3) according to the preoperative PET-CT performance. After sample processing, total RNA was extracted from the tissues of different regions, and then whole gene transcriptome sequencing was performed. Bioinformatics analysis of the two sets of data was performed to discover the expression profiles of the differences in whole gene transcriptome data between the two regions and to screen for candidate biomarkers. Eighty patients with sputum-negative pulmonary tuberculosis admitted to Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center from January 1, 2019 to January 1, 2021 were retrospectively collected as the validation group, including 37 males and 43 females, aged 20-62 years, with an average age of 39 years. The validation group was divided into a group with increased SUV (n=40) and a group without lesions on CT imaging (n=40). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine the protein levels of candidate biomarkers in the peripheral plasma of patients. The effect of biomarkers was assessed using subject operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Student's t-test was used to determine whether the difference in protein levels between the two groups was statistically significant. Results: Bioinformatics analysis revealed that the expression levels of C1QB, CCL19, CCL5 and HLA-DMB correlated with the metabolic activity of sputum-negative tuberculosis lesion tissue. Further screening and validation by the validation group confirmed that the difference in C1QB protein levels in the peripheral plasma of patients was statistically significant between the group with increased SUV and the group without lesions on CT imaging [(3.55±0.34) mg/L vs. (2.75±0.21) mg/L, t=4.12, P<0.001]. And the ROC curve showed that the area under the curve for C1QB protein levels was 0.731, which had potential clinical value. Conclusion: The C1QB protein level can be used to assess the activity of lesions in patients with sputum-negative tuberculosis and is a potential biomarker.

Abstract
BackgroundVasculitis include a group of autoimmune inflammatory diseases with clinical heterogeneous characterized by inflammation of vascular wall, inflammation of perivascular tissues, and cell-like necrosis[1]. Disorder of gut microbiota, which plays a crucial role in regulating immune cells such as Th1, Th17 and Treg, is associated with other autoimmune diseases[2], and may also be involved in the pathogenesis of vasculitis.ObjectivesTo investigate the changes of intestinal microbiota and its correlation with peripheral lymphocyte subsets and inflammatory factors levels in patients with vasculitis.MethodsCombined with clinical manifestations and laboratory examination, 33 patients with vasculitis who met the 2012 revised International Chapel Hill Consensus Conference Nomenclature of Vasculitides[3] and 33 of age- and gender- matched healthy controls (HCs) were selected from the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University. The demographic characteristics, general laboratory indicators such as erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reaction protein (CRP), levels of peripheral lymphocyte subpopulations and serum cytokines detected by modified flow cytometry. Fecal microbiota detected by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and compiled and processed using Qiime2 and OTU-profiling tables were collected and analyzed in this study.ResultsCompared with HCs, the richness and diversity of intestinal flora in patients with vasculitis tended to decrease with a statistically significant difference in β diversity (P = 0.025, Figure 1 A and B). More specifically, vasculitis patients had a lower frequency of Firmicutes while higher Proteobacteria and Bacteroidota at the phylum level (P < 0.001, Figure 1C). In vasculitis patients, the relative abundances of 23 bacteria differed from HCs at the genus level was all decreased, including Gemella, Anaeroglobus, Campylobacter, Fournierella, et al (P < 0.001, Figure 1D and E). More importantly, the relative abundance of Muribaculaceae were positively correlated with the absolute count of Th2 and the proportions of Th1 and CD4+T cells and negatively correlated with CRP and ESR, while relative abundance of [Eubacterium]_ventriosum were positively associated with the absolute number of Treg cells and negatively correlated with the percentages of Th2 and CD8+T cells (Figure 1F).Figure 1.Differences in α diversity (A), β diversity (B), phylum (C), genus (D), and microbial composition (E) between vasculitis patients and HC and correlation analysis between differential microflora and clinical data in patients with vasculitis (F).ConclusionDisturbance of intestinal flora, mainly manifested by decreased diversity and richness, may be involved in the occurrence and development of vasculitis by inducing disroders in lymphocyte subsets and cytokines. Consequently, further studies on the immune mechanisms and influencing factors of intestinal flora may provide new ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease for vasculitis patients.References[1]Aierken X, Zhu Q, Wu T, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundInflammatory arthritis includes a group of chronic conditions, particularly rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA)[1].Growing evidences link gut microbiota dysbiosis with the development of inflammatory arthritis[2].ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to discover the characters of microbiota in inflammatory arthritis patients and compare the relationship between the microbiota and peripheral lymphocyte subsets and cytokines.MethodsFecal samples were collected from 73 arthritis patients (13 PsA, 30 AS, 30 RA patients) and 140 sex- and age-matched healthy controls (HCs). The gut microbiota was studied by sequencing the V3-V4 variable regions of bacterial 16S rRNA genes by the Illumina Miseq PE300 system. Peripheral lymphocyte subsets in these participants were assessed by flow cytometry. Measures of disease activity such as erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP) were recorded. Alpha and Beta diversity was assessed using results from QIIME2 and gut microbiome profiles were compared using linear discriminant analysis (LDA) effect size (LEfSe). R (version 4.0.1) was used for comparative statistics, using pearson correlation analysis to assess the correlation between the relative abundance of genus in the sample and clinical parameters.ResultsCompared with HCs, the richness of gut microbiota (ACE and Chao 1) was significantly lower (p < 0.05) in arthritis patients, and bacterial diversity including Shannon and Simpson indices (p < 0.001) was also significant in arthritis decreased (Figure 1A). β-diversity analysis based on Bray-curtis distance revealed significant differences in microbial communities between arthritis and HCs (Figure 1B, r=0.098, p=0.001, ANOSIM). In addition, compared with HCs at the genus level, 9 bacterial groups were significantly different in PsA (p < 0.05), 19 bacterial groups in AS (p < 0.05), and 17 bacterial groups in RA(p < 0.05) (Figure 1C). There was a significant positive correlation between CD4+T and Prevotella(p<0.01), T and Prevotella(p<0.05), Blautia(p<0.05) as well as Megamonas(p<0.05), Th17 and Prevotella(p<0.01), CD8+T and Megamonas(p<0.01), Th1 and Megamonas(p<0.05), Prevotella(p<0.01),Coprococcus(p<0.05), B and Erysipelotricbaceae_UCG-003(p<0.01), and Erysipelotricbaceae_UCG-003(p<0.01), Anaerostipes(p<0.01), CRP and Fusobacterium(p<0.05) as well as Roseburia(p<0.05). There were negative correlations between T and Erysipelotricbaceae_UCG-003 (p<0.05),CD8+T and Fusobacterium(p<0.01), CD4+T and Fusobacterium(p<0.05), NK and Fusicatenibacter(p<0.05).ConclusionThe gut microbiota of patients with inflammatory arthritis differs from HC and also varies among individual arthritis, which was closely related to lymphocyte subsets.References[1]Wu X.

Abstract
BackgroundPrimary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by disorders of lymphocyte subpopulations with various cytokines and auto-antibodies1. Growing evidences suggest that gut microbiome dysbiosis may contribute to the development of pSS2.ObjectivesTo investigate the alterations to the gut microbiome and the correlation with peripheral lymphocytes and serum cytokines as well as inflammatory factors in pSS patients.MethodsA total of 101 pSS patients and 101 age- and sex- matched healthy controls (HCs) were enrolled in this study from The Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University (Taiyuan, Shanxi, China). Patients fulfilled the 2019 ACR/EULAR classification criteria. We conducted 16S rRNA gene sequencing using fecal microbiota samples and analyzed the peripheral lymphocyte subsets by flow cytometry. Serum cytokines, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reaction protein (CRP), unstimulated and stimulated whole saliva (UWS and SWS) secretion rate was also collected, respectively. Sequence data were compiled and processed using Qiime2 and OTU-profiling tables were constructed. Correlations between different taxa and gut microbiome, as well as clinical variables, were calculated by Spearman’s rank test.ResultsPatients with pSS exhibited a significant reduction in the richness and diversity of gut microbiota compared with those of HCs (Figure 1A-B, p < 0.05). Detailly, at the phylum level, pSS patients had a lower frequency of Firmicutes while higher Proteobacteria (Figure 1C, p < 0.05). Compared with HCs, 11 species of flora were discovered to be distinctly different at the genus level (p < 0.05). Patients presented fewer Faecalibacterium and Roseburia but more Lactobacillus (Figure 1D, p < 0.05). Lactobacillus negatively correlated with T cells (r=-0.407), CD8+T (r=-0.417) and Th2 (r=-0.323). There was a significant positive correlation between Faecalibacterium and IL-2(r=0.312), IFN-γ(r=0.338), TNF-α levels(r=0.322) (Figure 1E, p < 0.05). As for clinical disease measures, IL-6 increases were in line with ESR and CRP, while IL-2 levels inversely related to CRP. Additional UWS secretion rate and SWS secretion rate had negative correlation with ESR (Figure 1F, p < 0.05).ConclusionThe structural disorder of gut microbiota was distinct in pSS which were associated with peripheral lymphocyte subsets and cytokines. Disorders of gut microbiota and immune systems may contribute to the occurrence and development of pSS.References[1]Mariette X, Criswell LA. Primary Sjogren’s Syndrome.

Abstract
BackgroundAnkylosing spondylitis (AS), a common chronic inflammatory disease, is a prototype of spondyloarthritis affecting sacroiliac joints and spine with or without peripheral arthritis and other systemic symptoms[1]. Environmental factors, especially microorganisms have been suggested to implicate with AS pathogenesis[2].ObjectivesUtilizing 16S rRNA genes sequencing on the feces of untreated AS patients and healthy controls (HCs), our study aimed to provide an in-depth understanding of AS gut microbiota and identifying a feasible diagnostic strategy for AS.MethodsFecal samples were collected from 62 AS patients and 62 age-and-gender- matched 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 based pipeline was used to process the raw sequence data. Alpha and beta diversities were assessed using result from QIIME2, and comparisons of gut microbiome profile were performed using linear discriminant analysis (LDA) effect size (LEfSe) to examine differences between AS and HCs. R (version 4. 0.1) was used for comparative statistics, and pearson’s correlation was used to assess the correlations between the relative abundances of bacterial genera and clinical parameters; correlations with p<0.05 were considered significant.ResultsAS for alpha-diversity, ACE and Chao1 indices were lower in AS compared with those HCs(Figure 1A, p<0.05), though no significant differences observed in Shannon and Simpson index. Bray curtis distance-based beta-diversity analysis revealed significant differences in the microbial community between AS and HCs (Figure 1B, p=0.003, ANOSIM). Fecal microbial communities in AS differed significantly from those in HCs, driven by higher abundances of Escherichia-Shigella, Turicibacter, Enterococcus, et al. and a lower abundance of Agathobacter, Roseburia, Eubacterium_eligens_group, et al (Figure 1C, p<0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between ESR and Klebsiella, Butyricicoccus, Roseburia, CRP and Faecalibacterium, Muribaculaceae, ASDAS-CRP score and Faecalibacterium, Ruminococcus, total lymphocyte cells and Agathobacter, Ruminococcus, T cell and Agathobacter, CD4+T cell and Agathobacter, B cell and Agathobacter, Streptococcus, Th1 and Prevotella, CAG−352, Th2 and Agathobacter, Th17 and Prevotella, Agathobacter, IL-2 and Agathobacter, IL-4 and Agathobacter, IL-6 and Lachnospiraceae_UCG−004, Muribaculaceae, IL-17 and Eubacterium_hallii_group, IFN-gama and Phascolarctobacterium.There were negative correlations between total lymphocytes and Escherichia−Shigella, CD4+T cell and Enterobacteriaceae, Th2 cell and Escherichia−Shigella, IL-10 and CAG−352, Ruminococcus (Figure 2, p<0.05).Figure 1.Feature of gut microbiota in AS patients and HCs.

Abstract
BackgroundSystemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease characterized by widespread inflammation and tissue damage in multiple organs[1]. Microbiome is one of environmental factors that has been suggested to contribute to the occurrence and development of SLE[2].ObjectivesThis study aims to the understanding of the pathogenesis of SLE from the perspective of intestinal microorganisms and investigate the associations between flora and peripheral lymphocyte subpopulations and cytokines in SLE patients.MethodsFecal samples were collected from 96 patients with SLE, and 96 sex-and age-matched healthy controls (HCs). The gut microbiota were investigated via 16s rRNA sequencing and the peripheral T lymphocyte subsets of these participants were assessed by flow cytometry. Indicators of disease activity such as erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reaction protein (CRP), complement C3 and C4 were recorded. Differential abundance analysis was carried out using the edgeR algorithm. The Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used to compare alpha diversity indices, bacterial abundances, and the F/B ratio between groups. R (version 4.0.1) was used for comparative statistics, and pearson’s correlation analysis was used to assess the correlations between the relative abundances of bacterial genera and serum levels of ESR, CRP, C3 and C4 in the samples; correlations with p < 0.05 were considered significant.ResultsThe alpha estimators of richness (ACE and Chao 1) were significantly reduced in SLE feces samples compared with those of HCs (p < 0.0001). Bacterial diversity estimators, including the Shannon (p < 0.001) and Simpson’s (p < 0.01) indices, were also significantly lower in SLE (Figure 1A-D). The microbial community structures of the SLE and HCs could be separated by unweighted UnFrac-based principal coordinates analysis (PCoA) (R = 0.186, and p = 0.001; Figure 1E). Significant differences in gut microbiota composition between SLE and HCs were found using the edgeR algorithm. Compared with HCs, 24 species of flora were discovered to be distinctly different(p < 0.05). Moreover, there was a significant positive correlation between Tregs and Corynebacterium(p < 0.05), CD8+T and Corynebacterium (p < 0.05), CD4+T and Corynebacterium (p < 0.05), T and Corynebacterium (p < 0.05), Th1 and Escherichia−Shigella (p < 0.01), Th2 and Dielma (P<0.001) as well as Eubacterium eligens group (p < 0.05), NK and Faecalibacterium (p < 0.01). as well as Corynebacterium (p < 0.001), IL-6 and Coprococcus (p < 0.05), IL-10 and Eubacterium eligens group (p < 0.001) as well as Veillonella (p < 0.05). and Lachnospira (p < 0.01). As for clinical disease measures, there were positive correlations between CRP and Eubacterium ventriosum (p < 0.05). and Coprococcus (p < 0.05), C4 and the abundance of Corynebacterium (p < 0.05) (Figure 1F).ConclusionPatients with gut dysbiosis that mainly characterized by reduced the diversity and impaired abundance of the intestinal flora. Abnormality of T cell subsets and cytokines, especially the level of CD4+T, CD8+T, NK, Treg, Th, IL-6 and IL-10 cells contributes to the occurrence and progression of SLE, which may be related to the disturbance of gut microbiota. The discovery of the associated intestinal microbiota of SLE may provide a new idea for treatment.References[1]Fava A, Petri M. Systemic lupus erythematosus: diagnosis and clinical management.

Abstract
BackgroundRheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an aggressive immune-mediated joint disease characterized by synovial proliferation and inflammation, cartilage destruction, and joint destruction. Growing evidences suggests a chronic inflammatory response induced by gut microbiome critically contribute to the development of rheumatoid arthritis.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to evaluate and quantify differences in the composition of gut microbiota in RA patients and investigate the associations between flora and clinical variables in RA patients.MethodsFecal samples from 145 RA patients and 145 age- and gender- matched healthy controls (HCs) were collected for bacterial 16S rRNA genes sequencing. The alpha-diversity, beta-diversity and the microbial composition (at the phylum and genus level) analysis of the gut microbiome were used to define the difference of gut microbiota profiles between RA patients and HCs. The peripheral lymphocytes of these patients were assessed by flow cytometry, and inflammatory biomarkers (ESR, CRP), auto-antibodies(ACPA, MCV) and cytokines measured by ELISA were recorded. Correlations between different taxa and clinical variables, were calculated by Spearman’s rank test.ResultsConsistent with trends observed for diversity, patients with RA had a lower richness compared with those of HCs (p < 0.01, Figure 1a), suggesting gut microbiome was markedly less diverse in composition in RA. Bray curtis distance-based beta diversity analysis revealed significant differences in the microbial community between RA and HCs (ANOSIM, R2=0.061, p=0.001, Figure 1b). Ten selected taxonomic biomarkers at different phylogenetic levels showed great discriminant ability, with Log10 LDA score > 4.0 (Figure 1e-g). Detailly, at the phylum level, RA patients had a lower frequency of Firmicutes while higher Proteobacteria. RA patients presented fewer Faecalibacterium but more Escherichia_Shigella at the genus level (Figure 1c-d). PICRUSt analysis found that in the KEGG pathways, the microbial gene functions related to Propanoate metabolism were higher in the fecal microbiome of RA patients (Figure 1h). Escherichia_Shigella positively correlated with ACPA antibodies (r=0.176, p < 0.05) and IL-4 (r=0.204, p < 0.05, Figure 1i), wheras Faecalibacterium as a probiotic showed no significant correlation with our clinical measures.Figure 1.ConclusionSpecific gut microbiota played an important role in the pathogenesis of RA, which may aid in the diagnosis or determination of the susceptibility of individuals to RA via detection of the gut microbiome.References[1]de Oliveira GLV, Leite AZ, Higuchi BS, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundOsteoporosis(OP) is one of the major comorbidities of rheumatoid arthritis(RA) which is associated with immune disorders[1]. The gut microbiota has been highlighted to be an important environmental factor to influence immune system in maintaining bone health and regulating bone remodeling[2]. However, the alterations of intestinal flora and its relationship with immune system in RA patients with OP are unclear.ObjectivesTo investigate the characteristics of gut microbiome as well as the associations between flora and peripheral lymphocyte subpopulations and cytokines in rheumatoid arthritis patients complicated with osteoporosis.MethodsTotal 28 RA patients were divided into 14 RA-non-OP and 14 gender- and age-matched RA-OP groups according to their bone mineral density (BMD) and the history of fragility fracture. Gut microbiota of participants were investigated by 16s rRNA and peripheral lymphocyte subsets and cytokines were assessed via flow cytometry. Indicators like erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reaction protein (CRP), anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (ACPA) and anti-mutated citrullinated vimentin (MCV) antibody were recorded meanwhile. Alpha diversity (ACE, Chao1, Simpson, Shannon) and beta diversity indices were analyzed using QIIME2. Biomarker species were recognized based on STEMP. Spearman analysis was adopted for correlation of two variables. All P-values reported herein were two-tailed and P-value<0.05 was taken as statistically significant.ResultsThe alpha-diversity have no significant difference between RA-non-OP and RA-OP groups (P >0.05, Figure 1A). The community structure of microflora differed between two groups (P <0.05, Figure 1B). As for the composition of intestinal flora at genus level, Faecalibacterium, Proteus, Catenibacterium, Enterobacter and Erysipelatoclostridium in RA-OP group as well as Lachnospiraceae_ND3007_group, Parasutterella, Megasphaera, Tyzzerella, UCG-005, Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1, UCG-002, Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group, Christensenellaceae_R-7_group, Prevotella, Parabacteroides in RA-non-OP group were significantly increased (Figure 1C). There were positive correlations between Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group and the level of T, Th1 and Th17 cells, but negative relevance with ESR, CRP and IL-10 (P <0.05). The relative abundance of Faecalibacterium was negatively correlated with IL-2, IL-4, TNF-α and positively with MCV (P <0.05). Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1 and Lachnospiraceae_ND3007_group were negatively correlated with ACPA and MCV respectively as well as IL-2 (P <0.05, Figure 1D-E).ConclusionAbnormality of immune system may contribute directly or indirectly to OP in RA, which may be related to the disturbance of gut microbiota.References[1]Horta-Baas G, Romero-Figueroa MDS, Montiel-Jarquín AJ, et al.

Abstract
BackgroundThe presence of dysbiosis in the gut microbiome is responsible for the initiation of autoinflammatory and autoimmune diseases. However, such dysbiosis is difficult to characterize in sweeping generalization owing to the high dimensional complexity of the gut microbiota.ObjectivesThis study designed to characterize the gut microbial enterotype in patients with undifferentiated spondyloarthritis (USpA) from lower dimensionality and describe the dysbiosis.MethodsThe Fecal samples of 105 patients were diagnosed with USpA and gender- and age- matched 105 healthy controls (HC) were included in the intestinal microbiota composition analyses via Illumina sequencing of bacterial 16S rRNA genes. Microbiota-derived clustering was performed using Dirichlet multinomial mixtures (DMM) modeling. To identify discriminative features in abundance between enterotypes, the Linear Discriminant Analysis Effect Size (LEfSe) algorithm was used with the online interface Galaxy (Log10 LDA score > 4.0). The phyloseq R package to compute alpha diversity (ACE, Chao1, Shannon and Simpson indices), beta diversity (Bray-Curtis dissimilarity) and the microbial composition (at the genus level) to describe the richness and diversity of the microbiota between two enterotypes.ResultsAs showed in Figure 1A and C, by evaluating the Laplace approximation to the negative log mode, 2 distinctly enterotypes were identified in the USpA and HC microbiota dataset. LEfSe Analysis indicated the distinctive abundant microbial clades between the 2 enterotypes (LDA score >4) in both the USpA and HC group respectively. At the genus level, Faecalibacterium and Prevotella was the driving genus of enterotype 1 and Bacteroides contributed to enterotype 2 (Figure 1B, D). The alpha-diversity and beta diversity between the distinctive enterotypes was highly significantly different (P < 0.01, Figure 1E, F). Distinct bacterial profiles were also observed in enterotype 1 and 2 (Figure 1G). Interestingly, no significant differences were found between USpA patients and HC for the corresponding same intestinal type. This may be because USpA was at a comparatively early stage of spondyloarthritis (SpA).ConclusionTwo significantly distinct bacterial microbiota structures existed in the USpA patients which was consistent with the general healthy population.References[1]Belkaid Y, Hand TW: Role of the microbiota in immunity and inflammation.

Abstract
BackgroundPatients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) displays extreme dysbiosis in microbiota. However, such dysbiosis is difficult to characterize owing to the high dimensional complexity of the gut microbiota1,2.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to discover the enterotype characters of intestinal flora in RA.MethodsFecal samples from 145 RA patients were collected for bacterial 16S rRNA genes sequencing. Mathematical modeling using Dirichlet multinomial mixtures (DMM) was applied to describe the variability in the microbiome data and cluster samples into enterotypes. The alpha-diversity, beta-diversity and the microbial composition analysis of the gut microbiome were used to define the difference of gut microbiota profiles between different enterotypes. The nonredundant taxonomic biomarkers for each enterotype were selected by using LEfSe. Inflammatory biomarkers (ESR, CRP), auto-antibodies(ACPA, MCV), peripheral lymphocytes subsets and cytokines were analyzed in our cohort using the Kruskal-Wallis test.ResultsLaplace approximation of DMM indicated two significantly distinct bacterial microbiota structures (RAE1 and RA E2) existed in the dataset (Figure 1a). Principal co-ordinates analyses confirmed that these two microbiota states explained a reasonable proportion of observed variance in microbiota composition(ANOSIM R2 = 0.267, p = 0.001; Figure 1b), with distinct bacterial genus distribution of in each enterotype (Figure 1c). RA E1 were primarily dominated by Prevotella while RA E2 by Bacteroides. Interestingly, Chao1, ACE, Shannon and Simpson revealed a higher alpha diversity in Prevotella-enriched enterotype (p< 0.001, Figure 1d). Fourteen selected taxonomic biomarkers at different phylogenetic levels showed great discriminant ability, with Log10 LDA score > 4.0 (Figure 1e-g). Further, inflammatory biomarkers (ESR, CRP) and auto-antibodies(ACPA, MCV) as well as the number of T, B and CD4+T, Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg were consistent in RA E1 and RA E2 (p > 0.05, Figure 2h). But CD8+T were significantly higher in RA E2 than in RA E2 (p < 0.05).ConclusionDespite RA gut microbiota being of different dysbiosis, two patterns of dysbiosis, designated as RA-enterotypes, were predominant among the RA patient cohort. RA E2 exhibited a loss of Prevotella but a growth of Bacteroides, while RA E1 presented the opposite results.References[1]Arumugam M, Raes J, Pelletier E, et al.

Abstract
Background: Prescription medication sharing is an inappropriate medication use behavior that can lead to medication errors and adverse drug events, posing a public health threat. The reported prevalence of prescription medication lending and borrowing varies by country, ranging from 6%–23% and 5%–52%, respectively. However, research on medication sharing is scant in Asian countries. Therefore, this study aimed to describe the rate of prescription medication sharing practices and investigate the associated behavioral factors, types of shared medications, and reasons for sharing among adults in South Korea. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using an online self-administered survey of 1,000 adults (aged 19–69 years; November 2020). A stratified sampling method was used to select survey participants from a nationwide consumer panel, which ensured a representative distribution of the Korean population by age, gender, and region. Descriptive and logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the information related to sharing behavior. Results: A total of 1,000 respondents participated in this study. The mean age of the respondents was 44.7 years (standard deviation [SD], 13.4), ranging from 20 to 69 years. The rate of medication sharing was 52.4%. The most prevalently shared medications were analgesic, antipyretic, and antimigraine medications. Prescription medications were shared mostly between family and relatives. Older age was a predictive factor for sharing analgesics. Lower educational level was a predictive factor for sharing ophthalmic medications. Conclusions: Approximately one in two respondents in our study have experienced medication sharing in their lifetime. Future studies are needed to establish evidence-based strategies for patient education and improve the medication use process. Healthcare professionals should assess patients’ needs for accessing medications and be ready to educate and guide them with specific action plans. Policymakers should consider patient empowerment strategies including public education and campaigns to avoid potential adverse outcomes of medication sharing.

Abstract
The genus Colletotrichum includes important plant pathogens, endophytes, saprobes and human pathogens. Even though the polyphasic approach has facilitated Colletotrichum species identification, knowledge of the overall species diversity and host distribution is largely incomplete. To address this, we examined 952 Colletotrichum strains isolated from plants representing 322 species from 248 genera, or air and soil samples, from 87 locations in China, as well as 56 strains from Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Turkey, and the UK. Based on morphological characteristics and multi-locus phylogenetic analyses, the strains were assigned to 107 species, including 30 new species described in this paper and 18 new records for China. The currently most comprehensive backbone tree of Colletotrichum, comprising 16 species complexes (including a newly introduced C. bambusicola species complex) and 15 singleton species, is provided. Based on these analyses, 280 species with available molecular data are accepted in this genus, of which 139 have been reported in China, accounting for 49.6 % of the species. Colletotrichum siamense, C. karsti, C. fructicola, C. truncatum, C. fioriniae, and C. gloeosporioides were the most commonly detected species in China, as well as the species with the broadest host range. By contrast, 76 species were currently found to be associated with a single plant species or genus in China. To date, 33 Colletotrichum species have been exclusively reported as endophytes. Furthermore, we generated and assembled whole-genome sequences of the 30 new and a further 18 known species. The most comprehensive genome tree comprising 94 Colletotrichum species based on 1 893 single-copy orthologous genes was hence generated, with all nodes, except four, supported by 100 % bootstrap values. Collectively, this study represents the most comprehensive investigation of Colletotrichum diversity and host occurrence to date, and greatly enhances our understanding of the diversity and phylogenetic relationships in this genus.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of guided bone regeneration (GBR) on marginal bone loss (MBL) in the region of the mandibular posterior tooth by using a retrospective cohort study, in order to provide reference for clinical practice. Methods: The research subjects were patients who received dental implants from October 2008 to June 2011 in the region of the mandibular posterior tooth at the Department of Oral Implantology, School of Stomatology, The Fourth Military Medical University. According to whether GBR was performed or not and the time of implant insertion, the patients were divided into the controls group (patients without bone grafting), simultaneous GBR implantation group, and delayed GBR implantation group. On this basis, the MBL was measured according to radiographs by comparing the marginal bone level from that of immediate postoperation 10 years ago. General data was collected and compared among groups, including modified plaque index (mPI), modified sulcus bleeding index (mSBI), probing depth (PD), and gingival papilla height. Results: The controls group (patients without bone grafting), implantation group, and delayed GBR implantation group followed 58, 76, 26 implants in 26, 32, 13 patients aging at (46.5±9.9), (45.5±10.7), (58.3±6.4) respectively. The duration of the follow-up was (11.2±0.7), (11.1±0.8), (11.1±0.9) years respectively. The 10-year implant survival rate was 100% (58/58), 100% (76/76), 100% (26/26). The MBL was (0.91±0.28), (0.84±0.27), (1.01±0.27) mm respectively. The MBL difference of patients with simultaneous GBR implantation and delayed GBR implantation showed statistical significance (P<0.05), but these two groups showed no statistical significance compared with the controls group (P>0.05). The mPI, mSBI, PD, and gingival papilla height of the three groups all had no significance on statistics (P>0.05). Conclusions: It can be concluded that there is no difference in long-term marginal bone resorption between simultaneous and delayed implantation with or without GBR (using autologous blood mixed with granular bone meal) in the posterior mandibular area.

Abstract
The certified reference materials (CRMs) are necessary for accurate quantification and insurance of comparability and traceability of results. Patulin is a typical mycotoxin in a variety of food commodities. Here, patulin CRM GBW(E)100673 was characterised and its purity was assessed by two independent orthogonal approaches including mass balance (MB) and quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (qNMR) methods. From MB equation, the calculated purity was 996.9 mg/g with subtraction of water, volatile solvent, inorganic and structurally related impurities. In the other qNMR method, the calculated purity was 996.7 mg/g. This CRM was homogeneous and stable for at least 9 months under -20 °C in dark. Finally, a purity of 997 mg/g with an expanded uncertainty of 3 mg/g (k=2) was finally assigned to patulin CRM in this study. High-purity patulin CRM was fully characterised and assessed for the first time. The new CRM can be applicable to routine monitoring and risk assessment for assurance of accuracy results in food safety.
