Abstract
The interplay between bacteria and their host influences the homeostasis of the human immune microenvironment, and this reciprocal interaction also affects the process of tissue damage repair. A variety of immunomodulatory commensal bacteria reside in the body, capable of delivering membrane vesicles (MVs) to host cells to regulate the local immune microenvironment. This research revealed, for the initial time, the significant enhancement of mucosal and cutaneous wound healing by MVs secreted by the human commensal Lactobacillus reuteri (RMVs) through modulation of the inflammatory environment in wound tissue. Local administration of RMVs reduces the proportion of pro-inflammatory macrophages in inflamed tissues and mitigates the level of local inflammation, thereby facilitating the healing of oral mucosa and cutaneous wounds. The elevated oxidative stress levels in activated pro-inflammatory macrophages can be modulated by RMVs, resulting in phenotypic transformation of macrophages. Furthermore, 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde present in RMVs can decrease the mitochondrial permeability of macrophages and stabilize the mitochondrial membrane potential, thereby promoting the conversion of macrophages to an anti-inflammatory phenotype. This study pioneers the significance of commensal bacterial MVs in tissue injury repair and presents a novel concept for the repair of tissue damage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors on cancer has yet to be fully elucidated. OBJECTIVE This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the effects of SGLT2 inhibitors on cancer. METHODS We searched the PubMed and ClinicalTrials.gov databases up to July 15, 2023, to identify eligible randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials that lasted at least ≥24 weeks. The primary outcome was the overall cancer incidence, and the secondary outcomes were the incidences of various types of cancer. We used the Mantel-Haenszel method, fixed effects model, risk ratio (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) to analyze dichotomous variables. Subgroup analysis was performed based on the SGLT2 inhibitor type, baseline conditions, and follow-up duration. All meta-analyses were performed using RevMan5.4.1 and Stata MP 16.0. RESULTS A total of 58 publications (59 trials) were included, comprising 113,909 participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus and/or chronic kidney disease and/or high cardiovascular risk and/or heart failure (SGLT2 inhibitor group, 63864; placebo group, 50045). Compared to the placebo SGLT2 inhibitors did not significantly increase the overall incidence of cancer (RR 1.01; 95% CI 0.94-1.08; p = 0.82). However, ertugliflozin did significantly increase the overall incidence of cancer (RR 1.29; 95% CI 1.01-1.64; p = 0.04). SGLT2 inhibitors did not increase the risks of bladder or breast cancer. However, dapagliflozin did significantly reduce the risk of bladder cancer by 47% (RR 0.53; 95% CI 0.35-0.81; p = 0.003). SGLT2 inhibitors had no significant effect on the risks of gastrointestinal, thyroid, skin, respiratory, prostate, uterine/endometrial, hepatic and pancreatic cancers. Dapagliflozin reduced the risk of respiratory cancer by 26% (RR 0.74; 95% CI 0.55-1.00; p = 0.05). SGLT2 inhibitors (particularly mediated by dapagliflozin and ertugliflozin but not statistically significant) were associated with a greater risk of renal cancer than the placebo (RR 1.39; 95% CI 1.04-1.87; p = 0.03). CONCLUSION SGLT2 inhibitors did not significantly increase the overall risk of cancer or the risks of bladder and breast cancers. However, the higher risk of renal cancer associated with SGLT2 inhibitors warrants concern.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate the factors influencing relapse and prognosis in patients with primary autoimmune cerebellar ataxia (PACA), an area previously not well understood. METHODS This prospective cohort study included patients who satisfied the modified diagnostic criteria of PACA. A modified Rankin scale score ≤ 2 at the last follow-up was defined as a favorable prognosis. Cox and Logistic regression were utilized to identify relapsing and prognostic factors, respectively. RESULTS A total of 68 patients were included and 35.3% were male. The median onset age was 42.9 years (IQR 22.1-54.0). Neuronal autoantibodies were detected in 33 (50.8%) patients. Of the 65 patients who received first-line immunotherapy, 55 (84.6%) were responsive and 10 (15.4%) were not. Responsiveness to first-line immunotherapy emerged as an independent factor for favorable prognosis (HR 16.762; 95% CI 2.877-97.655; p = 0.002), as did the absence of peripheral neuropathy/radiculopathy (HR 14.286; 95% CI 2.41-83.333; p = 0.003). Relapses occurred in 19 (27.9%) patients. Onset age ≤ 43 years (HR 5.245; 95% CI 1.499-18.35; p = 0.009), presence of peripheral neuropathy/radiculopathy (HR 4.280; 95% CI 1.622-11.298; p = 0.003) and elevated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) protein concentration (HR 3.443; 95% CI 1.083-10.951; p = 0.036) were statistically significant relapsing factors. CONCLUSION This study identified younger onset age, presence of peripheral neuropathy/radiculopathy and elevated CSF protein concentration as relapsing factors, and absence of peripheral neuropathy/radiculopathy and responsiveness to first-line immunotherapy as independent factors for favorable prognosis in PACA patients. These findings may guide individualized treatment strategies and potentially improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
According to recent research, metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) has emerged as an important underlying etiology of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the molecular mechanism of MAFLD-HCC is still unclear. Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2) is the key molecule to mediate the signal of inflammatory NF-κB pathway. This study aims to investigate the potential dysregulation of TRAF2 and its biological function in MAFLD-HCC. Huh7 TRAF2-/- demonstrated increased tumor formation ability compared to huh7 TRAF2+/+ when stimulated with transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β). The decisive role of TGF-β in the development of MAFLD-HCC was confirmed through the specific depletion of TGF-β receptor II gene in the hepatocytes (Tgfbr2ΔHep) of mice. In TRAF2-/- cells treated with TGF-β, both the glycolysis rate and lipid synthesis were enhanced. We proved the signal of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) could be activated in the presence of TGF-β, and was enhanced in TRAF2-/- cells. The coimmunoprecipitation (co-IP) experiments revealed that TRAF2 fortified the Smurf2-mediated ubiquitination degradation of AXIN1. Hence, TRAF2 depletion resulted in increased Smad7 degradation induced by AXIN1, thus promoting the TGF-β signal. We also discovered that PLX-4720 could bind with AXIN1 and restrained the tumor proliferation of TRAF2-/- in mice fed with high-fat diet (HFD). Our findings indicate that TRAF2 plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of MAFLD-HCC. The reduction of TRAF2 expression leads to the enhancement of the TGF-β-mTORC1 pathway by facilitating AXIN1-mediated Smad7 degradation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To summarize the clinical characteristics and prognosis of febrile infection-related epilepsy syndrome with claustrum lesions (FIRES-C). METHOD Clinical data of FIRES-C patients were collected retrospectively. The study reviewed and analyzed their clinical manifestations, treatment strategies, and prognosis. RESULT Twenty patients were enrolled, including 13 females and 7 males, with a median onset age of 20.5 years. All patients developed seizures after fever, with a median interval of 5 days. Brain MRI showed symmetric lesions in the claustrum in all patients. The median interval from seizure onset to abnormal MRI signals detection was 12.5 days. All patients had negative results for comprehensive tests of neurotropic viruses and antineuronal autoantibodies. Seventy percent of cases had been previously empirically diagnosed with autoimmune encephalitis or viral encephalitis before. All patients received anti-seizure medicine. Eleven patients (55%) received antiviral therapy. All patients received immunotherapy, including glucocorticoids (100%), intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) (65%), plasma exchange (PLEX) (10%), tocilizumab (10%), rituximab (5%), and cyclophosphamide (5%). Sixty percent of patients received long-term immunotherapy (≥ 3 months). The median follow-up was 11.5 months;60% of patients were diagnosed with refractory epilepsy. CONCLUSION Bilateral claustrum lesion on MRI is a distinctive neuroimage feature for FIRES, which may serve as an indication for the initial clinical assessments. FIRES-C should be classified as a type of inflammatory encephalopathy characterized by a monophasic nature. Some FIRES-C patients respond to immunotherapy and antiseizure treatments but most experience refractory epilepsy as a long-term outcome.

Abstract
Background Autoantibodies are useful biomarkers for the early detection and diagnosis of autoimmune cerebellar ataxia (ACA). Objective To identify novel autoantibody candidates in ACA patients. Methods Patients with cerebellar ataxia of unknown cause were recruited from July 2018 to February 2023. Anti-neural autoantibodies in patient samples were detected by tissue-based indirect immunofluorescence assay (TBA) on rat cerebellum sections. TBA-positive samples were further screened for well-established anti-neural autoantibodies using commercial kits. Tissue-immunoprecipitation (TIP) and subsequent mass spectrometric (MS) analysis were used to explore the target antigens of autoantibodies in samples that were TBA-positive but negative for known autoantibodies. The specific binding between autoantibodies and the identified target antigen was confirmed by neutralization experiments, recombinant cell-based indirect immunofluorescence assay (CBA), and western blotting experiments. Results The eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 delta (EEF1D) protein was identified as a target antigen of autoantibodies in samples from a 43-year-old female ACA patient, while the specific binding of autoantibodies and EEF1D was confirmed by subsequent experiments. A second anti-EEF1D autoantibody-positive ACA patient, a 59-year-old female, was detected in simultaneous screening. The main clinical manifestations in each of the two patients were cerebellar syndrome, such as unsteady walking and limb ataxia. Both patients received immunotherapy, including corticosteroids, intravenous immunoglobulin, and mycophenolate mofetil. Their outcomes provided evidence to support the effectiveness of immunotherapy, but the cerebellar atrophy that occurred before treatment may be irreversible. Conclusion In the current study, we identified anti-EEF1D autoantibody as a novel autoantibody candidate in ACA. Its pathological roles and diagnostic value need to be further verified in larger-scale studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) is frequently used in the treatment of neurological autoimmune disorders. However, its effect on the relapse risk in anti-leucine-rich glioma-inactivated protein 1 (anti-LGI1) encephalitis is not well studied. METHODS In this prospective observational cohort study, anti-LGI1 encephalitis patients were grouped according to MMF treatment status (MMF and non-MMF groups). The primary outcome was relapse after disease onset. RESULTS A total of 83 patients were included, with a median onset age of 60 years. Fifty-four patients were men (65.1%). The MMF group comprised 28 patients and the non-MMF group comprised 55. Median follow-up from symptom onset was 26 months. Relapse occurred in 43 patients (51.8%). Median modified Rankin scale (mRS) score at enrollment was significantly higher in the MMF group than the non-MMF group (3 vs. 2; p = 0.001). Median mRS score at last follow-up was comparable between groups (1 vs. zero; p = 0.184). Both MMF treatment (HR 0.463; 95% CI, 0.231-0.929; p = 0.030) and cognitive impairment at enrollment (HR 3.391; 95% CI, 1.041-11.044; p = 0.043) were independent predictors of relapse. Starting immunotherapy before development of cognitive impairment trended towards reducing relapse risk. Outcome at last follow-up was good (mRS score 0-2) in all patients except for one in the non-MMF group. Adverse events associated with MMF treatment were mild and transient. CONCLUSION Although the outcome of anti-LGI1 encephalitis patients is generally favorable, relapse is common, especially in those with cognitive impairment. MMF treatment is well-tolerated and can significantly reduce the risk of relapse.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to analyze the clinical characteristics and outcomes of Chinese patients with progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) who were treated with programmed cell death protein 1 (PD1) blockade therapies. We retrospectively analyzed patients who were admitted to our hospital between October 1, 2020, and October 1, 2022, diagnosed with PML and treated with PD1 blockade therapies. Four patients with PML who were treated with PD1 blockade therapies were identified. All patients were male, and their ages ranged from 19 to 54 years old. One patient (Case 2) exhibited mild pleocytosis, while three patients (Cases 2-4) had markedly reduced T lymphocyte cell counts prior to treatment. The time interval between symptom onset and treatment initiation ranged from six to 54 weeks. All patients received pembrolizumab treatment, with a total of two to four doses administered. Three patients who responded to pembrolizumab treatment showed clinical improvement starting around 8 weeks after the initiation of therapy. Although one patient did not show clinical improvement, they ultimately survived until the last follow-up. None of the patients in this study exhibited immune-related adverse events or immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome. PD1 blockade appears to be a promising novel therapeutic option for PML; additional prospective studies are necessary to confirm its efficacy.

Abstract
CD9 is a member of the tetraspanin protein family, which has been widely studied in inflammation and cancer, but not in pathological cardiac hypertrophy. In this study, we found that the expression of CD9 was increased in transaortic constriction (TAC) myocardial tissue. Knockdown of CD9 alleviated damage to cardiac function in the TAC model and reduced heart weight, cardiomyocyte size, and degree of fibrosis, and vice versa. Mechanistically, co-immunoprecipitation results showed that CD9 and GP130 can bind to each other in cardiomyocytes, and knockdown of CD9 can reduce the protein level of GP130 and the phosphorylation of STAT3 in vivo and in vitro, and vice versa. GP130 knockdown reversed the aggravating effects of CD9 on pathological cardiac hypertrophy. Therefore, we conclude that CD9 exacerbates pathological cardiac hypertrophy by regulating the GP130/STAT3 signaling pathway and may serve as a therapeutic target for pathological cardiac hypertrophy.

Abstract
The gas gap of a multi-gap gas switch can be classified as trigger and self-breakdown gaps based on the breakdown condition. A two-gap gas switch consisting of a trigger gap and a self-breakdown gap is developed to independently study the breakdown characteristics of these two types of switch gaps. Trigger experiments for the switch are conducted under various trigger voltage rise rates and different working coefficients. The experimental results indicate that the trigger gap has significantly more jitter than the self-breakdown gap, and the overall performance of the gas switch is determined primarily by the trigger gap. A novel pre-ionization structure with disks is implemented into the two-gap gas switch, considerably decreasing the breakdown delay of the trigger gap and reducing the jitter to a quarter or even less compared to that without pre-ionization. A calculation model of the breakdown time delay for the trigger gap is provided based on the foundational development of the avalanche. The probability distribution of the time required for the initial electron generation is derived in the absence of pre-ionization. The calculated breakdown time delay agrees well with the experimental results in cases with and without pre-ionization under most trigger settings. The method and principle of calculating the breakdown time delay can analyze the collapse of a gas gap with different electrode configurations (quasi-uniform or uniform electrical fields) and various gas media under a nanosecond pulse voltage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our study aimed to investigate the utility of 18 F-FDG PET imaging in diagnosing and monitoring patients with anti-leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 antibody autoimmune encephalitis (anti-LGI1 AE). We also sought to understand the mechanisms of faciobrachial dystonic seizures (FBDSs). PATIENTS AND METHODS We analyzed 18 F-FDG PET scans from 50 patients with anti-LGI1 AE, using visual and semiquantitative methods, and compared these with 24 healthy controls. All patients tested positive for anti-LGI1 antibodies in serum or cerebrospinal fluid before PET imaging. The patients were divided into FBDS and non-FBDS groups to compare metabolic differences using voxel-based semiquantitative analysis. Finally, we separately analyzed PET images of patients with symptom recurrence. RESULTS The sensitivity of 18 F-FDG PET was superior to MRI (97.9% vs 63.8%, respectively; P < 0.001). Semiquantitative analysis revealed hypermetabolism in the basal ganglia, medial temporal lobe, and brainstem, and hypometabolism in most neocortical regions compared with healthy controls. The FBDS group exhibited hypometabolism in the frontal and temporal lobes compared with the non-FBDS group. Among 7 recurrent patients, 3 were confirmed as recurrence and 3 as sequelae by PET. One patient relapsed shortly after discontinuing corticosteroids when PET indicated active lesions. CONCLUSIONS 18 F-FDG PET scans were more sensitive than MRI in detecting anti-LGI1 AE, which displayed a pattern of hypermetabolism in the basal ganglia and medial temporal lobe, as well as neocortex hypometabolism. Hypometabolism in the frontal and temporal lobes was associated with FBDS. Furthermore, 18 F-FDG PET scans can differentiate recurrence from sequelae and guide the timing of immunotherapy cessation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aflibercept has been approved for the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer for more than a decade, but its antiangiogenesis adverse effect profile during treatment remains unclear. This study is conducted to systematically review the risk of antiangiogenic adverse events in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer receiving aflibercept plus chemotherapy. METHODS We searched databases, including PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Library up to September 9, 2021. Relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and single-arm studies were included in the review. Statistical analyses were performed using R to calculate the summary incidence rate of antiangiogenic-related adverse events, odds ratios and 95% CIs. Heterogeneity among the included studies was assessed by subgroup analysis. Publication bias analysis and sensitivity analysis were performed to confirm the reliability of the results. RESULTS A total of 2889 patients from 10 studies met the inclusion criteria. The quality of the included studies was evaluated as qualified for further quantitative synthesis. In part of single-arm studies, the occurrence rates were 44.2% (95%CI, 39.7-48.7%) for hypertension, 31.3% (95% CI, 19.3-43.3%) for proteinuria, 27.3% (95%CI, 21.2-33.4%) for epistaxis, 22.5% (95%CI, 7.8-37.3%) for hemorrhage events, 8.0% (95%CI, 2.0-14 .0%) for venous thromboembolic event in all grades and 22.6% (95%CI, 19.1-26.2%) for grade III/IV hypertension, 7.4% (95%CI, 6.2-8.5%) for grade III/IV proteinuria. In part of RCT, compared to its counterpart, aflibercept containing arm was associated with the increased incidence rate in hypertension (OR:6.30, 95%CI: 3.49-11.36), proteinuria (OR:4.12, 95%CI: 1.25-13.61), epistaxis (OR:3.71, 95%CI: 2.84-4.85), III/IV hypertension (OR:7.20, 95%CI: 5.23-9.92), III/IV proteinuria (OR:5.13, 95%CI: 3.13-8.41). The funnel plot, Begg test and Egger test were carried out on the primary endpoints, III/IV hypertension rate and III/IV proteinuria rate, the result of which detected no obvious publication bias. No significant difference was observed in subgroup analysis in the primary endpoint between the subgroups stratified by treatment line (firstline or non-firstline), chemotherapy regime (FOLFIRI or others) and study design (RCTs or single-arm trials). CONCLUSION The available evidence suggests that using aflibercept is associated with an increased risk of antiangiogenic adverse events compared with controls. Further studies are needed to investigate this association. In the appropriate clinical scenario, the use of aflibercept in its approved indications remains justified. However, the results of this study should be interpreted with caution, as some of the evidence comes from single-arm clinical trials.

Abstract
Huntington's disease (HD) is a well-studied yet rare disease caused by a specific mutation that results in the expression of polyglutamine (PolyQ). The formation of aggregates of PolyQ leads to disease and increases the level of free radicals. However, it is unclear where free radicals are generated and how they impact cells. To address this, a new method called relaxometry was used to perform nanoscale MRI measurements with a subcellular resolution. The method uses a defect in fluorescent nanodiamond (FND) that changes its optical properties based on its magnetic surroundings, allowing for sensitive detection of free radicals. To investigate if radical generation occurs near PolyQ aggregates, stable tetracycline (tet)-inducible HDQ119-EGFP-expressing human embryonic kidney cells (HEK PQ) were used to induce the PolyQ formation and Huntington aggregation. The study found that NDs are highly colocalized with PolyQ aggregates at autolysosomes, and as the amount of PolyQ aggregation increased, so did the production of free radicals, indicating a relationship between PolyQ aggregation and autolysosome dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The early accurate diagnoses for autoimmune encephalitis (AE) and infectious encephalitis (IE) are essential since the treatments for them are different. This study aims to discover some specific and sensitive biomarkers to distinguish AE from IE at early stage to give specific treatments for good outcomes. RESULTS We compared the host gene expression profiles and microbial diversities of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from 41 patients with IE and 18 patients with AE through meta-transcriptomic sequencing. Significant differences were found in host gene expression profiles and microbial diversities in CSF between patients with AE and patients with IE. The most significantly upregulated genes in patients with IE were enriched in pathways related with immune response such as neutrophil degranulation, antigen processing and presentation and adaptive immune system. In contrast, those upregulated genes in patients with AE were mainly involved in sensory organ development such as olfactory transduction, as well as synaptic transmission and signaling. Based on the differentially expressed genes, a classifier consisting of 5 host genes showed outstanding performance with an area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) of 0.95. CONCLUSIONS This study provides a promising classifier and is the first to investigate transcriptomic signatures for differentiating AE from IE by using meta-transcriptomic next-generation sequencing technology.

Abstract
Objective To describe the clinical and neuroimaging characteristics of rheumatoid meningitis (RM) in Chinese patients. Methods The patients admitted to our hospital with the diagnosis of RM in the past 8 years were retrospectively analyzed. Results Six patients with RM were identified among 933 patients admitted with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The symptoms of meningitis occurred after onset of arthritis in five patients and before onset in one. Headache (n=6), hyperacute focal neurological deficits (n=4) and seizures (n=3) were the most prevalent symptoms. The nadir modified Rankin Scale score was ≥3 in five patients. Rheumatoid factor was elevated in all patients, and interleukin-6 levels in cerebrospinal fluid were dramatically elevated in three of four tested patients. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed that the meninges were affected in all patients and the cerebral parenchyma was affected in one patient. The lesions were generally located in the frontoparietal region and showed restricted diffusion along the adjacent subarachnoid space. RM occurred during disease-modifying therapy in four patients. In the acute episode, three patients improved on tocilizumab and the other three improved on pulse corticosteroids. For maintenance therapy, two patients received combined therapy of tocilizumab and other immunosuppressive agents, one received adalimumab and methotrexate, and two received low-dose oral corticosteroids with an immunosuppressive agent. Five patients had a good outcome, and one died of Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia after stabilization of his neurologic conditions. No relapse of RM occurred on immunotherapy during follow-up. Conclusions Chinese patients with RM share some remarkable clinical and neuroimaging features and respond well to appropriate immunotherapy. Tocilizumab could be a treatment option for this severe complication of RA.

Abstract
Autoimmune cerebellar ataxia (ACA) is an important and potentially treatable cause of sporadic cerebellar syndrome, but studies with large sample size are limited. This study reported a large ACA series in China and described its etiology and clinical characteristics. We reviewed all ACA patients from our hospital (2013-2021) and analyzed their clinical and paraclinical features, treatment, and outcome. ACA subtypes investigated included paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration (PCD), primary autoimmune cerebellar ataxia (PACA), anti-glutamate decarboxylase (GAD)-associated cerebellar ataxia, opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome (OMS), Miller Fisher syndrome (MFS), and ACA-associated with autoimmune encephalitis. A total of 127 patients were identified and 40.9% were male. The median onset age was 47.0 years. Gait ataxia was the most prevalent feature followed by limb ataxia, dizziness, and dysarthria/dysphagia. Extracerebellar manifestations included pyramidal signs (28.3%) and peripheral neuropathy/radiculopathy (15.0%). ACA subtypes were PCD (30.7%), PACA (37.8%), ACA associated with autoimmune encephalitis (12.6%), anti-GAD-associated ACA (8.7%), MFS (7.1%), and OMS (3.1%). Neuronal antibodies were positive in 67.7% of patients. Brain magnetic resonance imaging was unremarkable (55.7%) or showed atrophy (18.3%) or abnormal signal intensity (26.1%, most of which was extracerebellar). Although most patients received immunotherapy, the modified Rankin scale at last follow-up was ≤ 2 in only 47.3% patients. Thirteen patients died and 24 relapsed. Compared with PACA, PCD patients were older and had poorer outcome. This study illustrates the heterogeneity in the clinical features of ACA and suggests the importance of neuronal antibody testing in ACA diagnosis. PCD and PACA are the dominant ACA subtypes, and the former has a less favorable prognosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical and radiological characteristics of anti-metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) encephalitis. METHODS We reviewed the clinical data of five patients with anti-mGluR5 encephalitis, and performed a literature review. RESULTS The five cases included a 52-year-old man who developed a biphasic course of anti-mGluR5 encephalitis after herpes simplex encephalitis, a 22-year-old woman who showed bilateral basal ganglia lesions on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and a 36-year-old man with mixed aphasia and generalized tonic-clonic seizures, a 51-year-old man presented with personality changes, hallucinations, delusions, sleeping disorders and a 58-year-old man with short-term memory deficits and absence seizures.. There are 16 reported cases of anti-mGluR5 encephalitis worldwide. Of all 21 patients, with a median onset age of 35 years old, the main neurological symptoms were cognitive impairment (85.7%, 18/21), psychiatric or behavior problems (76.2%, 16/21), seizures (57.1%, 12/21), sleeping disorders (52.4%, 11/21), different degrees of decreased consciousness (42.9%, 9/21), and movement disorders (23.8%, 5/21). Brain MRI was normal in 11 of 21 patients. Lesions of the limbic lobes were presented in 5 patients, while involvement of other extralimbic regions was also reported. Seven of 21 (33.3%) cases were combined with tumors. Elevated white blood cell counts or specific oligoclonal IgG bands in the cerebrospinal fluid were found in 18 of 21 patients, with marked improvements observed after immunotherapy. DISCUSSION Patients with anti-mGluR5 encephalitis typically present with diffuse, rather than purely limbic, encephalitis. Anti-mGluR5 encephalitis can be triggered by herpes simplex encephalitis. The risk of a combined tumor may be reduced in anti-mGluR5 encephalitis patients.

Abstract
BackgroundThe obesity rate in the Chinese population is increasing and there is a lack of short and reliable scales for measuring obesity-related eating behavior in China. The EBS-SF (Sakata Eating Behavior Scale short form) has only 7 entries and has shown good reliability in studies such as those in Japan.ObjectiveTo translate the EBS-SF into Chinese, check its reliability, validity and explore the related factors.MethodThe EBS-SF was translated into Chinese. 3,440 residents were investigated and 34 respondents were retested. Item analysis and reliability and validity tests were carried out. Personality characteristics, family health status and depression were investigated using the BFI-10, FHS-SF and PHQ-9 to investigate the factors associated with EBS-SF. The t-test, ANOVA and Pearson correlation was used to explore the related factors of its scores.ResultAmong 3,440 residents, 1,748 (50.81%) were male and 1,692 (49.19%) were female; 1,373 (39.91%) were aged 36–50 years. All 7 items were qualified in the item analysis. As for reliability, the Cronbach's α was 0.870, the split-half reliability was 0.830, the test-retest correlation coefficient was 0.868. As for the structural validity, the standardized factor loadings were above 0.50, χ2 / df = 2.081,GFI = 0.999; NFI = 0.999; RFI = 0.996; RMSEA = 0.018, all qualified. The characteristics, personality, family health and depression were correlated with the score of the Chinese version of EBS short form.ConclusionThe structural validity and reliability of the Chinese version of the EBS-SF are good and it can be used as a measurement tool to evaluate the eating behavior of Chinese. The scores of the EBS-SF may be related to the sociological characteristics, personality, family health, and depression status.

Abstract
Background Previous studies have emphasized the media as an essential channel for understanding information about depression. However, they have not divided groups according to the degree of media use to study their differences in depression. Therefore, this study aims to explore the influence of media use on depression and the influencing factors of depression in people with different media use degrees. Methods Based on seven items related to media use, a total of 11, 031 respondents were categorized by the frequency of media use using latent profile analysis (LPA). Secondly, multiple linear regression analyzes were conducted to analyze the effects of depression in people with different degrees of media use. Finally, factors influencing depression among people with different degrees of media use were explored separately. Results All respondents were classified into three groups: media use low-frequency (9.7%), media use general (67.1%), and media use high-frequency (23.2%). Compared with media use general group, media use low-frequency (β = 0.019, p = 0.044) and media use high-frequency (β = 0.238, p < 0.001) groups are significantly associated with depression. The factors influencing depression in the population differed between media use low-frequency, media use general, and media use high-frequency groups. Conclusion The government and the appropriate departments should develop targeted strategies for improving the overall health status of people with different media use degrees.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the correlation of CCBE1 expression in adjacent tissues of tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) with pericancerous lymphatic vessel proliferation, cervical lymph node metastasis and survival outcomes of the patients. METHODS Lymphatic vessel density was quantified in pericancerous tissue sections of 44 cases of cT1-2N0 TSCC using D2-40 as the lymphatic vessel endothelial marker for calibration and counting of the lymphatic vessels. Of these 44 cases, 22 showed a relatively low lymphatic vessel density (group A) and the other 22 had a high lymphatic vessel density (group B), and the expression levels of CCBE1 in the adjacent tissues determined using immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence assay and Western blotting were compared between the two groups. The expression level of CCBE1 was also measured in another 90 patients with TSCC using immunohistochemistry, and all the patients were followed up for their survival outcomes. RESULTS Immunohistochemistry and Western blotting showed a significantly lower rate of high CCBE1 expression in group A than in group B (P < 0.05). Immunofluorescence assay showed co-localization of CCBE1 and D2-40 in the adjacent tissues of TSCC. In the 90 TSCC patients with complete follow-up data, a high expression of CCBE1 was found to correlate with lymph node metastasis and a poor 5-year survival outcomes of the patients (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION A high expression of CCBE1 in the adjacent tissues of TSCC is closely related with pericancerous lymphatic vessel proliferation, cervical lymph node metastasis and a poor 5-year survival of the patients, suggesting the value of CCBE1 as a potential prognostic predictor for TSCC.

Abstract
Objective To describe clinical phenotypes and prognosis of neurological autoimmunity related to glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65) antibodies in China. Method In this retrospective observational study from Peking Union Medical College Hospital, we identified patients with neurological disorders related to GAD65 antibodies (cell-based assay) from May 2015 to September 2021. Clinical manifestations, immunotherapy responsiveness, and outcomes were collected after obtaining informed consent from all patients. Results Fifty-five patients were included: 40 (72.73%) were women and initial neurological symptoms developed at 42(34-55) years of age. The median time to the nadir of the disease was 5 months (range from 1 day to 48 months). The clinical syndromes included limbic encephalitis (LE) or epilepsy (Ep) (n = 34, 61.82%), stiff-person syndromes (SPS) (n = 18, 32.73%), autoimmune cerebellar ataxia (ACA) (n = 11, 20%), and overlap syndrome in eight (14.55%) patients. Thirty-two (58.2%) patients had comorbidities of other autoimmune diseases, including Hashimoto thyroiditis (n = 17, 53.13%), T1DM (n = 11, 34.78%), vitiligo (n = 6, 18.75%), and others (n=5, 15.63%). Two (3.64%) patients had tumors, including thymoma and small cell lung cancer. Fifty-one (92.7%) patients received first-line immunotherapy (glucocorticoids and/or IV immunoglobulin), and 4 (7.3%) received second-line immunotherapy (rituximab). Long-term immunotherapy (mycophenolate mofetil) was administered to 23 (41.8%) patients. At the median time of 15 months (IQR 6–33.75 month, range 3–96 month) of follow-up, the patients' median modified Rankin Score (mRS) had declined from 2 to 1. Thirty-eight (70.4%) patients experienced clinical improvement (mRS declined ≥1), 47 (87%) had favorable clinical outcomes (mRS ≤2), and nine were symptom-free (16.7%). The sustained response to immunotherapy ranged from 7/15 (63.63%) in ACA patients and 22/34 (64.7%) in LE/Ep patients to 14/17 (82.35%) in SPS patients. Conclusions LE/Ep was the most common neurological phenotype of GAD65 antibody neurological autoimmunity in our cohort. Most patients had comorbidities of other autoimmune diseases, but underlying tumors were rare. Most patients responded to immunotherapy. However, the long-term prognosis varied among different clinical phenotypes.

Objectives The “hot cross bun sign” (HCBs) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been initially considered specific for multiple system atrophy with cerebellar features. However, a number of other conditions have since been described, which may be associated with this imaging sign. We herein describe a patient with anti-Ri and paraneoplastic cerebellar ataxia, and review the association of the HCBs on imaging with various neurological autoimmune conditions. Methods We report a 40-year-old woman with anti-Ri-associated paraneoplastic neurological syndrome and breast carcinoma, in whom brain MRI revealed the HCBs late in the disease course. We also reviewed similar cases reported in the literature. Results The patient presented with cerebellar ataxia, polyneuropathy, and pyramidal signs. Although brain MRI was initially unremarkable, the HCBs and T2-weighted hyperintensity of the bilateral middle cerebellar peduncles were observed at later follow-up. Anti-Ri was detected in the serum and cerebrospinal fluid. Breast adenocarcinoma was confirmed via an axillary lymph node biopsy. Her symptoms partially resolved after the first corticosteroid pulse. However, subsequent immunotherapy and tumor treatments were ineffective. Four autoimmune cerebellar ataxia cases with the HCBs (two paraneoplastic and two non-paraneoplastic) were identified in the literature. Discussion The HCBs can be associated with paraneoplastic and non-paraneoplastic cerebellar ataxia, which may reflect neurodegeneration secondary to autoimmune injury. Thus, the HCBs should not be considered a contraindication for autoimmune cerebellar syndrome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of atorvastatin (AVT) on biological behaviors and the miR-146a/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in human glioma cells. METHODS Human glioma U251 cells were treated with 8.0 μmol/L AVT or transfected with a miR-146a inhibitor or a negative control fragment (miR-146a NC) prior to AVT treatment. RT-PCR was used to detect miR-146a expression in the cells, and the changes in cell proliferation rate, apoptosis, cell invasion and migration were detected using MTT assay, flow cytometry, and Transwell assay. Western blotting was performed to detect the changes in cellular expressions of proteins in the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. RESULTS AVT treatment for 48 h resulted in significantly increased miR-146a expression and cell apoptosis (P < 0.01) and obviously lowered the cell proliferation rate, invasion index, migration index, and expressions of p-PI3K and p-Akt protein in U251 cells (P < 0.01). Compared with AVT treatment alone, transfection with miR-146a inhibitor prior to AVT treatment significantly reduced miR-146a expression and cell apoptosis (P < 0.01), increased the cell proliferation rate, promoted cell invasion and migration, and enhanced the expressions of p-PI3K and p-Akt proteins in the cells (P < 0.01); these effects were not observed following transfection with miR-146a NC group (P>0.05). CONCLUSION AVT can inhibit the proliferation, invasion and migration and promote apoptosis of human glioma cells possibly by up-regulating miR-146a expression and inhibiting the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Abstract
Background No validated biomarkers currently exist for predicting the efficacy outcomes in patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) treated with antiangiogenic therapy. We aimed to evaluate the association between treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) and efficacy outcomes of surufatinib in patients with advanced NET. Patients and methods We included patients with NET treated with surufatinib in two multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase III trials (SANET-p and SANET-ep) in this study. The main exposure was the presence of any of the TRAEs including hypertension, proteinuria, and hemorrhage in the first 4 weeks of surufatinib treatment. The primary outcome of the study was investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS). PFS outcomes were estimated using the Kaplan–Meier method with the log-rank test. Hazard ratios (HRs) were calculated by using univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazard regression models. Blinded independent image review committee (BIIRC) assessments and 4-week landmark analysis were also performed as supportive evaluations. Results During the study period, a total of 242 patients treated with surufatinib were included in the analysis, and 164 (68%) patients had at least one of hypertension, proteinuria, and hemorrhage in the first 4 weeks of treatment. The presence of TRAEs in the first 4 weeks was associated with prolonged median PFS [11.1 versus 9.2 months; HR 0.67, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.47-0.97; P = 0.036]. In multivariable Cox regression analysis, the presence of TRAEs was also significantly associated with longer PFS (HR 0.65, 95% CI 0.44-0.97; P = 0.035). Similar results were obtained in the BIIRC assessments and 4-week landmark analysis. Conclusions Treatment-related hypertension, proteinuria, and hemorrhage could be potential biomarkers to predict antitumor efficacy of surufatinib in patients with advanced NET. Future prospective studies are needed to validate the findings. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.govNCT02589821; https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02589821 and ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02588170; https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02588170 Treatment-related hypertension, proteinuria, or hemorrhage is associated with longer survival in NETs. The association is confirmed by the BIIRC assessments and 4-week landmark analysis. TRAEs can be biomarkers to predict antitumor efficacy in patients with NET.

Abstract
PURPOSE Papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) frequently presents a favorable clinical outcome, while aggressive invasiveness can also be found in some of this population. Identifying the risk clinical factors of high-volume (> 5) central lymph node metastasis (CLNM) in PTMC patients could help oncologists make a better-individualized clinical decision. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the clinical characteristics of adult patients with PTC in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database between Jan 2010 and Dec 2015 and in one medical center affiliated to Chongqing Medical University between Jan 2018 and Oct 2020. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to determine the risk factors for high volume of CLNM in PTMC patients. RESULTS The male gender (OR = 2.02, 95% CI 1.46-2.81), larger tumor size (> 5 mm, OR = 1.64, 95% CI 1.13-2.38), multifocality (OR = 1.87, 95% CI 1.40-2.51), and extrathyroidal invasion (OR = 3.67; 95% CI 2.64-5.10) were independent risk factors in promoting high-volume of CLNM in PTMC patients. By contrast, elderly age (≥ 55 years) at diagnosis (OR = 0.57, 95% CI 0.40-0.81) and PTMC-follicular variate (OR = 0.60, 95% CI 0.42-0.87) were determined as the protective factors. Based on these indicators, a nomogram was further constructed with a good concordance index (C-index) of 0.702, supported by an external validating cohort with a promising C-index of 0.811. CONCLUSION A nomogram was successfully established and validated with six clinical indicators. This model could help surgeons to make a better-individualized clinical decision on the management of PTMC patients, especially in terms of whether prophylactic central lymph node dissection and postoperative radiotherapy should be warranted.

Abstract

Type of funding sources: None.
Background
The arterial switch operation (ASO) has improved outcomes for patients with transposition of the great arteries (TGA) however the long-term impact on myocardial function and functional reserve during exercise remains poorly described. The aim of this study was to evaluate left (LV), and right ventricular (RV) myocardial response to exercise in children post ASO using semi-supine cycle ergometry stress echocardiography (SSCE).
Methods
This is a single-center cross-sectional study. Participants prospectively underwent exercise stress echocardiography using a semi-supine bicycle and a stepwise exercise protocol. Systolic (s’) and diastolic (e’) tissue Doppler velocities, as well as myocardial acceleration during isovolumic contraction (IVA) were measured at rest and during exercise at incremental heart rates (HR) in the basal segments of the RV lateral wall, IVS and LV lateral wall. Systolic and diastolic reserve were evaluated by plotting s’ and e’ against HR while contractile reserve was assessed by plotting IVA values against HR which represents the force-frequency relationship (FFR).
Results
A total of 40 patients with TGA and 29 controls were included. There were no differences between groups in age (14.6 ± 2.9 vs 14.3 ± 3.1 years, p= 0.75), sex (male= 30/40 vs 20/29 p= 0.58), and resting HR (67 ± 12 vs. 71 ± 12 bpm, p = 0.31). Peak HR was lower in the ASO group (142.2 ±12.4 vs 157 ± 12.3 bpm, p< 0.01). At rest, the ASO group showed lower s’ in the RV and IVS (RV s’: 5.7 ± 1.4 vs. 10.2 ± 2.1 cm/s, p <0.001; IVS s’: 4.2 ± 1.3 vs. 6.2 ± 1.8 cm/s, p< 0.001); lower IVA in the IVS and LV (IVS: 1.01 ± 0.37 vs. 1.23 ± 0.4 m/s2, p= 0.03; LV: 0.86 ± 0.32 vs. 1.1 ± 0.4 m/s2, p =0.02), and reduced e’ in all segments. At peak exercise the ASO group showed reduced s’, e’, and IVA in all segments (table1). When plotted against HR, there was blunting of the s’ slope in RV and septal segments while the LV s’ slope was similar between groups. There were no differences in e’ slope when compared to controls (figure 1). The ASO group showed a blunted IVA response to HR in all measured segments compared to controls.
Conclusion(s):
Our data demonstrate patients post ASO have reduced RV and LV contractile reserve in response to exercise. The etiology and long-term implications of these abnormalities however remains to be described. Abstract Figure. Doppler velocities at baseline and peak Abstract Figure. Dynamic response to exercise

Abstract
The abnormal proliferation and migration of Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are related to many cardiovascular diseases, including atherosclerosis, restenosis after balloon angioplasty, hypertension, etc. Myricanol is a diarylheptanoid that can be separated from the bark of Myrica rubra. It has been reported that myricanol can anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-neurodegenerative, promote autophagic clearance of tau and prevent muscle atrophy. But its potential role in the cardiovascular field remains unknown. In this study, we investigated the effect of myricanol on the proliferation and migration of VSMCs in vitro and on the intimal hyperplasia in vivo. In vitro experiments, we found myricanol can inhibit the proliferation and migration of VSMCs induced by PDGF-BB. In terms of mechanism, the preincubation of myricanol can suppress the PDGF-BB induced phosphorylation of PDGFRβ and its downstream such as PLCγ1, Src, and MAPKs. In addition, NF-kB p65 translocation was also suppressed by myricanol. In vivo experiments, we found myricanol can suppress the intimal hyperplasia after wire ligation of the carotid artery in mice. These results may provide a new strategy for the prevention and treatment of coronary atherosclerosis and post-stent stenosis in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Encephalitis associated with antibodies against alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor (AMPAR) is an extremely rare type of antibody-mediated encephalitis. This research aims to investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of anti-AMPAR encephalitis. METHODS This retrospective study enrolled nine patients with anti-AMPAR encephalitis. Demographic information, clinical manifestations, laboratory and radiological findings, treatment and response were collected and analyzed. These patients were followed up with an average period of 72 weeks to gather prognostic information. RESULTS Nine patients (7 females and 2 males) were enrolled with a mean age at disease onset of 59 years old. Three clinical pictures, including limbic encephalitis (n = 7; 78%), pure amnesia (n = 1; 11%) and fulminant encephalitis (n = 1; 11%) were identified. New symptoms of dysphagia and deafness were identified in the clinical spectrum of anti-AMPAR encephalitis. All patients had positive blood AMPAR antibodies, and six of them (67%) had paired positive antibodies in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was abnormal in 75% of the patients with no specific patterns recognized. Six patients (67%) had tumors, including lung cancers and thymomas. After immunotherapy and oncotherapy, partial improvement of neurological symptoms was observed among all 6 patients with available records during their hospitalization. After a mean follow-up of 72 weeks, 3 patients had marked decrease of modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score, 1 patient had unchanged mRS score, 4 patients died and the other one was lost. CONCLUSIONS Anti-AMPAR encephalitis mainly presents as limbic encephalitis, and is paraneoplastic in 67% of cases. Thus, intensive screening for tumors is recommended for all anti-AMPAR patients. Although patients showed a good short-term therapeutic response, the overall prognosis was not satisfactory.

Abstract
In the past 5 years, the positivity rate of autoimmune encephalitis antibody panels has significantly decreased in patients with clinically suspected encephalitis in an encephalitis center in China. Furthermore, the spectrum of patients with autoantibodies related to autoimmune encephalitis has changed significantly, exhibiting a decreased percentage of patients with anti-N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor antibodies and an increased percentage of patients with infrequently observed autoantibodies. Meanwhile, a small but non-negligible proportion of patients with autoantibodies against cell surface and synaptic proteins exhibited positivity for more than one autoantibody.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is frequent in women of reproductive age, but very limited data are available on the epidemiology in cases of VVC in China. OBJECTIVES The current study has been conducted to reveal the prevalence, species distribution of yeast causing VVC and molecular genetics of Candida albicans in China. METHODS Vaginal swabs were collected from 543 VVC outpatients recruited in 12 hospitals in China between September 2017 and March 2018. They were preliminarily incubated on Sabouraud dextrose agar and then positive subjects of which were then transmitted to our institute for further identification. CHROMagar™ was used to isolate Candida species, and all isolates were finally identified by DNA sequencing. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) was used to analyse phylogenetic relationships of the various C. albicans isolates. RESULTS Eleven different yeast species were identified in 543 isolates, among which C. albicans (84.7%) was the most frequent, followed by C. glabrata (8.7%). We obtained 117 unique diploid sequence types from 451 clinical C. albicans isolates and 92 isolates (20.4%) belonged to a New Clade. All the strains appearing in the New Clade were from northern China and they were isolated from non-recurrent VVC. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that C. albicans are still the main cause of VVC in China and the majority of C. albicans isolates belongs to Clade 1 with DST 79 and DST 45 being two most common. Moreover, the New Clade revealed in our study seems to be specific to northern China.

Abstract
Sustainable food systems require the integration of and alignment between recommendations for food and land use practices, as well as an understanding of the political economy context and identification of entry points for change. We propose a food systems transformation framework that takes these elements into account and links long-term goals with short-term measures and policies, ultimately guiding the decomposition of transformation pathways into concrete steps. Taking the transition to healthier and more sustainable diets as an example, we underscore the centrality of social inclusion to the food systems transformation debate.

Abstract
Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis (anti-NMDARE) and anti-leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 encephalitis (anti-LGI1E) are the two most common types of antibody-mediated autoimmune encephalitis. We performed a comprehensive analysis of the B-cell immune repertoire in patients with anti-NMDARE (n = 7) and anti-LGI1E (n = 10) and healthy controls (n = 4). The results revealed the presence of many common clones between patients with these two types of autoimmune encephalitis, which were mostly class-switched. Additionally, many differences were found among the anti-NMDARE, anti-LGI1E, and healthy control groups, including the diversity of the B-cell immune repertoire and gene usage preference. These findings suggest that the same adaptive immune responses occur in patients with anti-NMDARE and anti-LGI1E, which deserves further exploration.

Abstract
Bone defects associated with soft tissue injuries are an important cause of deformity that threatens people’s health and quality of life. Although bone substitutes have been extensively explored, effective biomaterials that can coordinate early inflammation regulation and subsequent repair events are still lacking. We prepared a spatial form periosteal bone extracellular matrix (ECM) scaffold, which has advantages in terms of low immunogenicity, good retention of bioactive ingredients, and a natural spatial structure. The periosteal bone ECM scaffold with the relatively low-stiffness periosteum (41.6 ± 3.7 kPa) could inhibit iNOS and IL-1β expression, which might be related to actin-mediated YAP translocation. It also helped to promote CD206 expression with the potential influence of proteins related to immune regulation. Moreover, the scaffold combined the excellent properties of decalcified bone and periosteum, promoted the formation of blood vessels, and good osteogenic differentiation (RUNX2, Col 1α1, ALP, OPN, and OCN), and achieved good repair of a cranial defect in rats. This scaffold, with its natural structural and biological advantages, provides a new idea for bone healing treatment that is aligned with bone physiology. We provided a spatial form periosteal-bone complex. The scaffold preserved major biological components and spatial structure. The periosteum part of the scaffold acted as a physical barrier. The scaffold participated in the transformation of the macrophage phenotype. The scaffold promoted osteogenesis and angiogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To present 6 new cases with Homer-3 antibodies that expand their clinical spectra and to evaluate the effect of immunotherapy. METHODS Patients with suspected autoimmune cerebellar disorder were tested for rare autoimmune cerebellar ataxia (ACA) antibodies (anti-Tr(DNER)/Zic4/ITPR1/Homer-3/NCDN/PKCγ/PCA-2/AP3B2/mGluR1/ATP1A3 antibodies) using both cell-based and tissue-based assays. Patients with positive serum or CSF results who were diagnosed with ACA were registered and followed up. This study reports and analyzes cases with Homer-3 antibodies. RESULTS Of the serum and CSF samples of 750 patients tested, 6 were positive for Homer-3 antibodies. All manifested subacute or insidious-onset cerebellar ataxia. Furthermore, 2 patients each exhibited encephalopathy, myeloradiculopathy, REM sleep behavior disorder, and autonomic dysfunction. Brain magnetic resonance images were normal (n = 1) or revealed cerebellar atrophy (n = 1), cerebellum and pons atrophy with the hot cross bun sign (n = 2), and bilateral cerebral abnormalities (n = 2). Definite leukocytosis was identified in the CSF of 2 patients, protein concentration elevation was observed in the CSF of 1 patient, and oligoclonal bands were present in 2 patients. All patients received immunotherapy, including corticosteroid, IV immunoglobulin, plasma exchange, and mycophenolate mofetil, after which the residual disability was still severe (modified Rankin Scale score ≥3 at the last follow-up in 4 patients and final Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia scores of 12-29), although 4 patients partially improved and 1 patient stabilized. The remaining 1 patient continued to deteriorate after repeated immunotherapy. Two patients relapsed. DISCUSSION Disorders associated with Homer-3 antibody can mimic multiple system atrophy with cerebellar features in both clinical and radiologic aspects. Accurate identification of autoimmune-mediated cases is critical. Timely, comprehensive immunotherapy is warranted, given the possibility of long-term clinical benefit.

Abstract
Light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b binding (Lhc) family proteins play a significant role in photosynthetic processes. Our objective was systematic identification and analysis of the Lhc family in cotton, as well as the relationship between Lhc family genes and chlorophyll synthesis during photosynthetic processes. We used genome-wide identification, phylogenetic analysis, chromosomal distribution and collinearity to examine potential functions of Lhc superfamily genes in upland cotton. Subcellular localization, qRT-PCR, a yeast two hybrid (Y2H) , and Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) experiment were used to explore function of GhLhcb2.3. Focusing on GhLhc family, gene structural analysis of G. hirsutum Lhc family genes (GhLhc) indicated the conservation of selected Lhc family members. The expression pattern of GhLhc proteins shows that Lhc family proteins are important for photosynthetic processes in leaves. Results of subcellular localization and qRT-PCR in different cotton varieties showed that GhLhcb2.3 is closely related to chloroplast chlorophyll. Y2H found extensive heteromeric interactions between the GhLhcb2.3 and GhLhcb1.4. Subcellular localization revealed that GhLhcb1.4 is located in chloroplasts. VIGS showed that GhLhcb2.3 influenced chlorophyll a synthesis. We comprehensively identified Lhc family genes in cotton, characterized these genes and reveal the influence of GhLhcb2.3 on chlorophyll a synthesis.

Abstract
Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the expression level and clinical significance of inflammatory factors and biochemical markers in gingival crevicular fluid during different crown-binding styles in dental implant patients. Methods A total of 38 patients with posterior tooth loss and implant repair were recruited and divided into two groups according to the different ways of crown bonding, including 19 prostheses (19 patients) in the adhesive retainer group and 19 prostheses (19 patients) in the modified adhesive retainer group. Moreover, the peri-implant gingival sulcus fluids of each group of patients were collected at 7, 15, 30, 60, and 90 d of post-treatment, and the expression level of each cytokine as well as biochemical marker were analyzed by enzyme-linked adsorption method, respectively. Results Compared with the control group, the peri-implant plaque index and gingival bleeding index were decreased in the observation group. In addition, the secretion of peri-implant gingival crevicular fluid in the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group. The level of IL-6, TNF-α expressions in peri-implant gingival crevicular fluid were gradually decreased with follow-up time, and the rate of decline gets slow at 15 h after operation. The TGFα in peri-implant gingival crevicular fluid in the two groups began to increase at 7 d, reached a peak at about 15 d, then slowly decreased and stabilized after 60 d. While the OCN was gradually increased during the whole detection process, slowly released before 30 d, then increasingly released and maintained at a peak state after 60 d. All the above differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion Different crown-binding patterns of implant teeth have a significant effect on the secretion amount of peri-implant gingival crevicular fluid and the expression level of inflammatory cytokines as well as biochemical markers.

Abstract
Angiogenesis is essential for various physiological and pathological processes. Previous studies have shown that miRNAs play an important role in blood vessel development and angiogenesis. Recent studies have suggested that miR-181b might be involved in the regulation of angiogenesis in tumors. However, whether miR-181b plays a role in angiogenesis in nontumor diseases is unclear. We found that miR-181b expression was downregulated in hypoxia-stimulated primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and a mouse hindlimb ischemia (HLI) model. Gain- and loss-of-function studies showed that a miR-181b mimic inhibited HUVEC migration and tube formation in vitro, and a miR-181b inhibitor had the opposite effects. In vivo, agomir-181b suppressed perfusion recovery in the HLI model and capillary density in a Matrigel plug assay, while perfusion recovery and capillary density were increased by injection of antagomir-181b. Mechanistically, we showed with a reporter assay that cellular communication network factor 1 (CCN1) was a direct target of miR-181b. Moreover, miR-181b suppressed angiogenesis at least in part by targeting CCN1 to inhibit the AMPK signaling pathway. Our research suggests that miR-181b suppresses angiogenesis by directly targeting CCN1, which provides new clues for pro-angiogenic treatment strategies.

Abstract
In the current study we report a novel autoantibody against Purkinje cells in a patient with primary autoimmune cerebellar ataxia (PACA) associated with Sjogren's syndrome (SS). Tissue-based indirect immunofluorescence assay (TBA) of the patient's serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) revealed IgG antibody to Purkinje cells and the granular layer of the rat cerebellum. Rab6A was identified as autoantigen by mass spectrometry (MS) and Western blotting, and the interactions between Rab6A or its homologous Rab6B and autoantibody in patient serum were verified by recombinant cell-based assay (CBA) and neutralization experiments. This autoantibody may represent a novel biomarker in the diagnosis of PACA.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of free fibula flap transplantation in repairing the defect of mandibular osteoradionecrosis (ORN). Methods: A total of 151 mandibular ORN patients undergoing free fibular flap transplantation were selected from August 2005 to September 2020 in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University. Among them, 109 patients were males and 42 patients were females, aged (54.1±10.1) (ranged 31-85) years old. The clinical data of the patients was collected and the survival rate of the flaps and postoperative function were calculated to evaluate the surgical efficacy. The χ2 test was used for difference analysis. Results: Among the 151 patients, mandibular ORN caused by radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma accounted for 79.5% (120/151). The average time for mandibular ORN appeared was 5(6) years after radiotherapy. Facial artery [57.2%(87/152)] and superior thyroid artery (50/152, 32.9%) were the main anastomotic arteries in the recipient area. There was no significant difference in the necrosis rates of the two flaps [10.3%(9/87) and 12.5%(5/50), respectively, P=0.949]. The main anastomotic veins in the recipient area were the external jugular vein [48.4%(135/279)] and the common facial vein [26.5%(74/279)]. Twenty-five cases (16.6%) had one vein anastomosed, and 126 cases (83.44%) had two veins anastomosed. There was no significant difference in the flap necrosis rate between the two conditions [20.0%(5/25) and 7.1%(9/126), respectively, P=0.100]. Ninety-seven cases (64.2%) used the peroneal musculocutaneous-fascia composite flap to repair the maxillofacial soft and hard tissue defects. Thirteen cases (8.6%) underwent the restorations with digital virtual surgery design, of which 5 cases were repaired with dental implants at the same time. After the operations, lower respiratory tract infection occurred in 17 patients (11.3%), and upper respiratory tract obstruction occurred in 3 cases (2.0%). The survival rate of the flap after operation was 90.7% (136/151), and 21 patients (13.9%) had flap vascular crisis. Delayed healing of maxillofacial wounds occurred in 33 cases (21.9%). After 3 to 24 months of follow-ups, 110 patients (76.9%) had no fistula inside/outside the oral cavity, 118 patients (82.5%) had an improvement in opening mouth of increasing (≥0.5 cm) after surgery, 135 patients (94.4%) had pain relief, 97 cases (67.8%) could eat normal diet, semi-liquid or soft food, and 137 cases (95.8%) were satisfied or basically satisfied with the treatment effects. Conclusions: The free fibular flap transplantation is an effective method to repair mandibular ORN defects. Preoperative vascular assessment is helpful for the selection of recipient vessels. Facial artery, superior thyroid artery, external jugular vein and common facial vein can be used as the main recipient vessels. The repair of the peroneal musculocutaneous-fascia composite flap facilitates the closure of internal and external fistulas. Digital technology can help to restore the maxillofacial shape more accurately, improve the patient's occlusal and chewing function and enhance the quality of life of mandibular ORN patients.
