Abstract
Heterotrophic activity, primarily driven by sulfate-reducing prokaryotes, has traditionally been linked to nitrogen fixation in the root zone of coastal marine plants, leaving the role of chemolithoautotrophy in this process unexplored. Here, we show that sulfur oxidation coupled to nitrogen fixation is a previously overlooked process providing nitrogen to coastal marine macrophytes. In this study, we recovered 239 metagenome-assembled genomes from a salt marsh dominated by the foundation plant Spartina alterniflora, including diazotrophic sulfate-reducing and sulfur-oxidizing bacteria. Abundant sulfur-oxidizing bacteria encode and highly express genes for carbon fixation (RuBisCO), nitrogen fixation (nifHDK) and sulfur oxidation (oxidative-dsrAB), especially in roots stressed by sulfidic and reduced sediment conditions. Stressed roots exhibited the highest rates of nitrogen fixation and expression level of sulfur oxidation and sulfate reduction genes. Close relatives of marine symbionts from the Candidatus Thiodiazotropha genus contributed ~30% and ~20% of all sulfur-oxidizing dsrA and nitrogen-fixing nifK transcripts in stressed roots, respectively. Based on these findings, we propose that the symbiosis between S. alterniflora and sulfur-oxidizing bacteria is key to ecosystem functioning of coastal salt marshes.

Abstract
The intricate formation of the palate involves a series of complex events, yet its mechanistic basis remains uncertain. To explore major cell populations in the palate and their roles during development, we constructed a spatiotemporal transcription landscape of palatal cells. Palate samples from C57BL/6 J mice at embryonic days 12.5 (E12.5), 14.5 (E14.5), and 16.5 (E16.5) underwent single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to identify distinct cell subsets. In addition, spatial enhanced resolution omics-sequencing (stereo-seq) was used to characterize the spatial distribution of these subsets. Integrating scRNA-seq and stereo-seq with CellTrek annotated mesenchymal and epithelial cellular components of the palate during development. Furthermore, cellular communication networks between these cell subpopulations were analyzed to discover intercellular signaling during palate development. From the analysis of the middle palate, both mesenchymal and epithelial populations were spatially segregated into 3 domains. The middle palate mesenchymal subpopulations were associated with tooth formation, ossification, and tissue remodeling, with initial state cell populations located proximal to the dental lamina. The nasal epithelium of the palatal shelf exhibited richer humoral immune responses than the oral side. Specific enrichment of Tgfβ3 and Pthlh signals in the midline epithelial seam at E14.5 suggested a role in epithelial-mesenchymal transition. In summary, this study provides high-resolution transcriptomic information, contributing to a deeper mechanistic understanding of palate biology and pathophysiology.

Abstract
Dityrosine (Dityr) has been detected in commercial food as a product of protein oxidation and has been shown to pose a threat to human health. This study aims to investigate whether Dityr causes a decrease in lactic acid metabolism in the gastrocnemius muscle during endurance exercise. C57BL/6 mice were administered Dityr or saline by gavage for 13 weeks and underwent an endurance exercise test on a treadmill. Dityr caused a severe reduction in motion displacement and endurance time, along with a significant increase in lactic acid accumulation in the blood and gastrocnemius muscle in mice after exercise. Dityr induced significant mitochondrial defects in the gastrocnemius muscle of mice. Additionally, Dityr induced serious oxidative stress in the gastrocnemius muscle, accompanied by inflammation, which might be one of the causes of mitochondrial dysfunction. Moreover, significant apoptosis in the gastrocnemius muscle increased after exposure to Dityr. This study confirmed that Dityr induced oxidative stress in the gastrocnemius muscle, which further caused significant mitochondrial damage in the gastrocnemius muscle cell, resulting in decreased capacity of lactic acid metabolism and finally affected performance in endurance exercise. This may be one of the possible mechanisms by which highly oxidized foods cause a decreased muscle energy metabolism.

Abstract
Hypertension-induced kidney injury is considered a vital consequence of long-term and uncontrolled hypertension, which is commonly associated with an excessive accumulation of angiotensin II (Ang II) from hyperactivated RAS. Antihypertensive peptides have a significant effect on blood pressure regulation, but few studies have focused on the ameliorative function of antihypertensive peptides on renal injury. This study explored the effects of soybean protein-derived hydrolysate (SPH) on SHR and Ang II-induced HK-2 cells. SPH significantly attenuated blood pressure and alleviated renal pathological injury in SHRs after oral gavage administration. According to the pathological results, the kidneys of SHRs showed inflammation and SPH attenuated inflammatory cell infiltration in the kidneys of SHRs. Immunohistochemical analysis further revealed that SPH inhibited MCP-1 expression and increased Nrf2 expression in the kidneys. An in vitro HK-2 cell model demonstrated that SPH exhibited optimal activity for reducing Ang II-induced inflammatory cytokines and ROS overproduction. Mechanistically, SPH was observed to regulate MAPK/JNK and NF-κB signaling pathways. These findings indicate that potent antihypertensive SPH significantly ameliorates hypertension-induced kidney damage.

Abstract
Cleft palate is one of the most common maxillofacial birth defects, which can occur alone or accompany with many known deformities. Palatal selves need to complete the process of vertical growth, elevation, adhesion and fusion in a specific time window of embryo development. Any abnormality in this process will lead to cleft palate. Although previous studies have identified many molecular networks that regulate the growth, location and fusion of palatal selves, there are still many unknown mechanisms for palatal development. The pathogenesis of cleft palate has not been clarified so far. In recent years, the molecular research on palate development has been deepened continuously. Here we summarize major recent advances and integrate the genes and molecular pathways with the cellular and morphogenetic processes of palatal shelf growth, patterning, elevation, adhesion, and fusion, in order to comprehensively understand the genotype-phenotype functional relationship and provide assistance in formulating effective prevention strategies for cleft palate disease.

Abstract
Background As a typical self-paced brain-computer interface (BCI) system, the motor imagery (MI) BCI has been widely applied in fields such as robot control, stroke rehabilitation, and assistance for patients with stroke or spinal cord injury. Many studies have focused on the traditional spatial filters obtained through the common spatial pattern (CSP) method. However, the CSP method can only obtain fixed spatial filters for specific input signals. In addition, the CSP method only focuses on the variance difference of two types of electroencephalogram (EEG) signals, so the decoding ability of EEG signals is limited. Methods To make up for these deficiencies, this study introduces a novel spatial filter-solving paradigm named adaptive spatial pattern (ASP), which aims to minimize the energy intra-class matrix and maximize the inter-class matrix of MI-EEG after spatial filtering. The filter bank adaptive and common spatial pattern (FBACSP), our proposed method for MI-EEG decoding, amalgamates ASP spatial filters with CSP features across multiple frequency bands. Through a dual-stage feature selection strategy, it employs the Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm for spatial filter optimization, surpassing traditional CSP approaches in MI classification. To streamline feature sets and enhance recognition efficiency, it first prunes CSP features in each frequency band using mutual information, followed by merging these with ASP features. Results Comparative experiments are conducted on two public datasets (2a and 2b) from BCI competition IV, which show the outstanding average recognition accuracy of FBACSP. The classification accuracy of the proposed method has reached 74.61 and 81.19% on datasets 2a and 2b, respectively. Compared with the baseline algorithm, filter bank common spatial pattern (FBCSP), the proposed algorithm improves by 11.44 and 7.11% on two datasets, respectively (p < 0.05). Conclusion It is demonstrated that FBACSP has a strong ability to decode MI-EEG. In addition, the analysis based on mutual information, t-SNE, and Shapley values further proves that ASP features have excellent decoding ability for MI-EEG signals and explains the improvement of classification performance by the introduction of ASP features. These findings may provide useful information to optimize EEG-based BCI systems and further improve the performance of non-invasive BCI.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the application value of computed tomography (CT) examination of lymph node short diameter in evaluating cardia-left gastric lymph node metastasis in thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Methods: A total of 477 patients with primary thoracic ESCC who underwent surgical treatment in the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2013 to December 2017 were collected. All of them underwent McKeown esophagectomy plus complete two-field or three-field lymph node dissection. Picture archiving and communication system were used to measure the largest cardia-left gastric lymph node short diameter in preoperative CT images. The postoperative pathological diagnosis results of cardia-left gastric lymph node were used as the gold standard. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the efficacy of CT lymph node short diameter in detecting the metastasis of cardia-left gastric lymph node in thoracic ESCC, and determine the optimal cut-off value. Results: The median short diameter of the largest cardia-left gastric lymph node was 4.1 mm in 477 patients, and the largest cardia-left gastric lymph node short diameter was less than 3 mm in 155 cases (32.5%). Sixty-eight patients had cardia-left gastric lymph node metastases, of which 38 had paracardial node metastases and 41 had left gastric node metastases. The lymph node ratios of paracardial node and left gastric node were 4.0% (60/1 511) and 3.3% (62/1 887), respectively. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of CT lymph node short diameter for evaluating cardia-left gastric lymph node metastasis was 0.941 (95% CI: 0.904-0.977; P<0.05). The optimal cut-off value of CT examination of the cardia-left gastric lymph node short diameter was 6 mm, and the corresponding sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were 85.3%, 91.7%, and 90.8%, respectively. Conclusion: CT examination of lymph node short diameter can be a good evaluation of cardia-left gastric lymph node metastasis in thoracic ESCC, and the optimal cut-off value is 6 mm.

Abstract
The prevalence and mortality of heart disease have a persistent existence, and it is important to develop active substances with cardioprotective properties. It has been reported that peptides from animal heart hydrolysates possess cardioprotective activity, but those mechanisms and the sequence of peptides are still unrevealed. In the present study, the extracts of bovine myocardium were prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis (BHH-A) and water extraction (BHH-W). The cardioprotective function of peptides was verified in the DOX-induced H9c2 cells and myocardial injury mice. The mass spectrometry was used to contrast the differences of active ingredients between BHH-W and BHH-A. Results suggested that both BHH-A and BHH-W could increase the activity of antioxidant enzymes in cardiomyocytes and reduce the inflammatory level and apoptosis of myocardial cells. The improvement effects of BHH-A on myocardial injury in mice were better than those of BHH-W. The analysis of peptide composition demonstrated that the contents with N-segment hydrophobic amino acids were higher in the peptides identified in BHH-A. Hence, BHH-A could be used as a potential active substance to improve DOX-induced myocardial injury by reducing oxidative damage, inflammation, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis, and its activity may be related to the richness of small molecular peptides and hydrophobic amino acids.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Glandular metastases including pancreatic and adrenal sites of disease are associated with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) of indolent biology. Adrenal and pancreatic metastases may develop in isolation or involve other organs and are associated with prolonged survival. Glandular metastases can be treated with systemic therapy, stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SAbR) or surgical resection and the optimal management of these patients is unknown. There is paucity of data on SAbR for RCC glandular metastases. We hypothesize that ablative doses of radiation therapy utilizing SAbR are associated with high rates of local control greater than 90%, with minimal or no acute grade 3 toxicities or higher with this approach. Here, we report local control (LC), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) rates as well as toxicities related to SAbR for RCC metastases to the pancreatic and adrenal glands. MATERIALS/METHODS This IRB-approved, single-institution, retrospective study included patients with RCC metastases to the adrenal glands and pancreas treated with SAbR. Data on patient demographics, functional status, tumor characteristics, International Metastatic RCC Database Consortium (IMDC) risk category, local and systemic treatments, toxicities, and outcomes were collected and analyzed. RECIST 1.1 principals were utilized to determine LC rates and PFS. PFS was determined from the initiation of SAbR to progression (at SAbR-treated or other sites), or death. OS was defined from the start of SAbR to death. Two independent reviewers assessed these measures and analyzed patient electronic health records for toxicities using CTCAE v5 and relatedness scores. RESULTS A total of 50 RCC patients were included in this study with 36 adrenal and 20 pancreatic metastases treated with SAbR. Median dose fractionation used was 40 Gray delivered in 5 fractions. Sixteen patients (32%) were treatment naïve with oligometastatic disease, and thirty-four (68%) were oligo-progressive on systemic therapy with 1-3 prior lines of systemic therapy. For treated adrenal metastatic lesions at 1 year, patients demonstrated a 75.3% OS, 46.7% PFS, and LC of 93.3%. For treated pancreatic metastatic lesions at 1 year, patients demonstrated a 100% OS, 48.6% PFS, and LC of 100%. At 1 year, there was an OS of 82.2%, PFS of 48.2%, and LC of 95.9 % in the combined cohort. The percentage of patients experiencing an acute grade 2 or 3 toxicity attributed to adrenal or pancreatic gland SAbR was 7.4%. There were no acute grade >3 toxicities. The percentage of patients experiencing a late grade 2 or 3 toxicity was 9.3%. Median time to late adverse events was 37.4 months. CONCLUSION SAbR of RCC metastases to the pancreas and adrenal glands is feasible, safe and appears to be effective. Median PFS and OS in this cohort compared favorably to those reported in historical cohorts and is consistent with indolent disease.

Abstract
Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is a counterregulator against ACE by converting angiotensin II (Ang II) to Ang-(1-7), and its down-regulation leads to endothelial dysfunction in the vascular system. In the present study, we investigated the effects of soybean protein isolate hydrolysate (SPIH) on Ang II-induced endothelial dysfunction with its underlying mechanisms via ACE2 activation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). We further screened potential ACE2 activating peptides by peptidomics analysis combined with bioinformatics tools. Results showed that SPIH remarkably attenuated Ang II-induced cell migration from 129 to 92%, decreased the ROS level from 2.22-fold to 1.45-fold, and increased NO concentration from 31.4 ± 0.7 to 43.7 ± 0.1 μM in HUVECs. However, these beneficial effects were reversed by ACE2 inhibitor MLN-4760 to a certain extent, indicating the modulation of ACE2. Further results revealed that SPIH (1 mg/mL) significantly increased the expression and activity of ACE2 and two novel ACE2 activating peptides with different mechanisms were explored from SPIH. IVPQ and IAVPT (50 μM) enhanced ACE2 activity, and only IVPQ (50 μM) increased ACE2 protein expression in HUVECs. These findings furthered our understanding of the antihypertensive mechanism of SPIH mediating the ACE2 activation on vascular endothelium.

Abstract
Extreme temperatures and droughts are considered as the two main factors that limit wheat growth and production. Although responses of wheat plants to heat and drought stress have been extensively investigated, little is known about the extent to which wheat plants can recover after stress relief. In this study, a winter wheat pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the growth, physiological activities, and yield formation responses of wheat to stress and recovery periods under heat stress (36 °C, daily maximum temperature), drought (45-55% of soil water holding capacity), and combined stress conditions. Heat and drought stress significantly reduced photosynthesis, leaf relative water content (LRWC), leaf water potential (LWPnoon), and nitrogen metabolism enzyme activities and increased electrolyte leakage. These parameters showed significant interactions between heat and drought stress. Beneficial osmoregulation of membrane stability was observed in stressed plants because of the accumulation of proline and soluble sugars. Within a range of stresses, the abovementioned physiological processes of individual heat- and drought-stressed plants recovered to levels comparable to those of the control. The recovery capacities of the physiological traits decreased gradually with increasing stress duration, particularly under combined stress. The recovery of LWPnoon and LRWC contributed to the improved photosynthetic performance after stress relief. The combined stress caused greater yield losses than individual heat and drought stress, which was mainly attributed to low levels of thousand grain weight (TGW), the number of grains per ear, and the grain filling rate. After stress relief, the recovery of proline content, glutamine synthetase activity, photosynthetic rate, and LRWC were closely associated with grain yield and thousand grain weight. Collectively, these findings contribute to a better understanding of the coordinated responses of winter wheat during the combined heat and drought stress and recovery periods.

Abstract
In this paper, we explored the interaction of factors which influenced the Cordyceps sinensis fermentation Marsdenia tenacissima (Roxb.) Wight et Arn, a Dai (a national minority of China) medicine, and the optimal fermentation conditions. The differences of C. sinensis metabolites in normal state (CN) and products of two-way liquid fermentation of C. sinensis and Marsdenia tenacissima (CM) and Marsdenia tenacissima (MT). The interactive effect of factors was analyzed and the best conditions are obtained through the box-behnken design (BBD) in response surface methodology (RSM). All metabolites were determined by ultra high performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometer (UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS), analyzed and identified by metabonomics technology. Results showed that the optimum fermentation conditions were the concentration of raw medicinal materials is 160 g/L, the fermentation time is 6 days, the inoculation volume is 9.5%, the rotating speed is 170 rpm. 197 metabolites were identified in both positive ion and negative ion. 119 metabolites were significantly different between CN and CM. 43 metabolites were significantly different between CM and MT. Differential metabolic pathways were enriched. In conclusion, this paper optimizes the bidirectional fermentation process of M. tenacissima and C. sinensis through response surface methodology, and analyzes the changes of components from the level of metabonomics, so as to provide reference for exploring medicinal fungi fermentation of traditional Chinese medicine.

Abstract
Background
It remains unknown if concomitant left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) at the time of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) surgery can reduce ischemic cerebrovascular accidents.
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of LAAC at LVAD surgery on the incidence of ischemic cerebrovascular accidents.
Methods
Between January 2012 and November 2021, 310 patients underwent LVAD surgery with HeartMate II or III. Out of 310 patients, 98 patients (31.6%) underwent concomitant LAAC. The cohort was divided into two groups: patients with LAAC (Group A, n=98) and without LAAC (Group B, n=212). To minimize device bias, LVAD surgery with HeartWare HVAD device was excluded. The ischemic cerebrovascular accident was defined as ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke or transient ischemic attack. We reviewed early and long-term clinical outcomes. The incidence of ischemic cerebrovascular accidents was compared between two groups using the Kaplan-Meier method. We also investigated if LAAC was associated with ischemic cerebrovascular accidents by Cox proportional hazards analysis.
Results
There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between two groups including age (Group A: 55.0±12.3 years old, Group B: 56.9±14.1 years old, p=0.26), preoperative CHADS2 score (Group A: 2.40±1.1, Group B: 2.58±1.1, p=0.19) and history of atrial fibrillation (Group A: 42.9%, Group B: 42.5%, p=0.95). In-hospital mortality was not significantly different between the two groups (Group A: 7.1%, Group B: 12.3%, p=0.16). In terms of postoperative complications, there were no significant differences between two groups in requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, re-exploration for bleeding and newly required hemodialysis. Median follow up period was 474 days. Thirty-five patients (11.2%) developed ischemic cerebrovascular accidents (5 patients in Group A and 30 patients in Group B). The rate of freedom from ischemic cerebrovascular accidents in Group A (94.1% at 500 days and 94.1% at 1500 days) was significantly higher than that in Group B (88.2% at 500 days and 77.4% at 1500 days; log rank=0.024). In a Cox proportional hazards regression analysis including LAAC, age, history of atrial fibrillation, diabetes mellitus and Heartmate 3 device implantation, LAAC was associated with reducing the incidence of ischemic cerebrovascular accidents (hazard ratio 0.37, 95% CI 0.13–0.89, p=0.02).
Conclusion
Concomitant LAAC at the time of LVAD surgery can reduce ischemic cerebrovascular accidents without increasing perioperative mortality and complications.

Abstract
Intestinal microecology is the main component of human microecology. Intestinal microecology consists of intestinal microbiota, intestinal epithelial cells, and intestinal mucosal immune system. These components are interdependent and establish a complex interaction network that restricts each other. According to the impact on the human body, there are three categories of symbiotic bacteria, opportunistic pathogens, and pathogenic bacteria. The intestinal microecology participates in digestion and absorption, and material metabolism, and inhibits the growth of pathogenic microorganisms. It also acts as the body's natural immune barrier, regulates the innate immunity of the intestine, controls the mucosal barrier function, and also participates in the intestinal epithelial cells' physiological activities such as hyperplasia or apoptosis. When the steady‐state balance of the intestinal microecology is disturbed, the existing core intestinal microbiota network changes and leads to obesity, diabetes, and many other diseases, especially irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and colorectal malignancy. Intestinal diseases, including tumors, are particularly closely related to intestinal microecology. This article systematically discusses the research progress on the relationship between IBD and intestinal microecology from the pathogenesis, treatment methods of IBD, and the changes in intestinal microbiota.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the influence of positioning accuracy of the multi-leaf collimators (MLC) on the passing rate of the plan dose verification for volumetric modulation arc therapy (VMAT) of cervical cancer using an Elekta linear accelerator. METHODS The dose distributions were measured using Sun Nuclear's Mapcheck and Arccheck semiconductors matrix before and after MLC calibration in30 cervical cancer patients undergoing VMAT. Dosimetric comparisons were performed with 2D and 3D gamma passing rates of 3%, 3 mm and 2%, and 2 mm. The 3D gamma distribution was reconstructed with respect to the patient's anatomy using 3DVH software to evaluate the possible influence of MLC positioning accuracy. RESULTS Before and after MLC calibration, the gamma passing rates of Mapcheck were (88.80±1.81)% and (99.25 ± 0.53)% under 3% and 3 mm standard, respectively, with an average increase of 10.45%. The corresponding gamma passing rates of Arccheck were (87.61±1.98)% and (98.13±0.99)%, respectively, with an average increase of 10.52%.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the course of disease and epidemiological parameters of COVID-19 and provide evidence for making prevention and control strategies. Methods: To display the distribution of course of disease of the infectors who had close contacts with COVID-19 cases from January 1 to March 15, 2020 in Guangdong Provincial, the models of Lognormal, Weibull and gamma distribution were applied. A descriptive analysis was conducted on the basic characteristics and epidemiological parameters of course of disease. Results: In total, 515 of 11 580 close contacts were infected, with an attack rate about 4.4%, including 449 confirmed cases and 66 asymptomatic cases. Lognormal distribution was fitting best for latent period, incubation period, pre-symptomatic infection period of confirmed cases and infection period of asymptomatic cases; Gamma distribution was fitting best for infectious period and clinical symptom period of confirmed cases; Weibull distribution was fitting best for latent period of asymptomatic cases. The latent period, incubation period, pre-symptomatic infection period, infectious period and clinical symptoms period of confirmed cases were 4.50 (95%CI:3.86-5.13) days, 5.12 (95%CI:4.63-5.62) days, 0.87 (95%CI:0.67-1.07) days, 11.89 (95%CI:9.81-13.98) days and 22.00 (95%CI:21.24-22.77) days, respectively. The latent period and infectious period of asymptomatic cases were 8.88 (95%CI:6.89-10.86) days and 6.18 (95%CI:1.89-10.47) days, respectively. Conclusion: The estimated course of COVID-19 and related epidemiological parameters are similar to the existing data.

Abstract
Nipah virus disease (NVD) is a newly emerged zoonosis with a case fatality rate of 40%-75%. NVD is a severe threat to human health and the development of livestock farming. NVD has become one of the emerging infectious diseases with great concern globally during more than 20 years. Nipah virus (NiV) is a pathogen for NVD, the natural host of which is Fruit bats of the Pteropodidae family. The clinical spectrum of NiV infection is broad, including asymptomatic infection, acute respiratory infection, fatal encephalitis, and even death. Since NiV was first identified in Malaysia in 1999, it has been prevalent mainly in Southeast Asia and South Asia. NiV is primarily transmitted to humans through bat-pig-human, contaminated food. Currently, there are no specific therapeutic drugs and vaccines for NVD. Although there are no cases of NVD reported in China, which has close personnel and trade exchanges with major NVD-endemic countries, and NiV antibody has also been detected in relevant bats. There is a potential risk of importing NVD and domestic outbreaks in the future in this country. This paper provides a systematic review of the research progress in the prevention and control of NVD etiology, epidemiology, clinical manifestations and laboratory diagnosis to help relevant staff to understand NVD more comprehensively and systematically.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Poor speech improvement after levator veli palatini (LVP) reconstruction may be related to intraoperative vascular injury. We aimed to examine the vascular anatomy of the velopharyngeal muscles to provide a guide for arterial protection in cleft palate repair. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fresh adult cadaveric heads were injected with gelatin/lead oxide. The velopharyngeal specimens were stained with iodine and scanned using micro-computed tomography. Three-dimensional reconstruction models were obtained using a computer-aided design software. RESULTS The ascending palatine artery (APaA), especially the posterior branch, is the main artery supplying the velopharyngeal muscles. The posterior branch of the APaA reaches the dorsal part of the musculus uvulae in the posterior one third of the soft palate (SP) and lies 1.75 mm (standard deviation, 0.06) under the nasal mucosa; the anterior branch penetrates the anterolateral side of the LVP to reach the anterior one third of the SP and lies 7.09 mm (0.03) under the oral mucosa. The posterior APaA, anterior ApaA, and ApaA trunk had mean diameters of 0.41 mm (0.04), 0.46 mm (0.06), and 0.65 mm (0.04) at 0.5 cm, 1 cm, and 1.5 cm distance from the palatal midline, respectively.. CONCLUSION To minimize vascular injury, mobilization of muscles during intravelar veloplasty should be performed within a distance of 1 cm from the palatal midline, and dissection of the oral submucosa should be reduced in the anterior one third of the SP, while wide dissection of the nasal submucosal should be avoided in the posterior one third of the SP.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors of COVID-19 confirmed cases with viral nucleic acid re-positive in anal and/or throat swabs after discharge during the domestic imported epidemic stage in Guangdong Province in early 2020. Methods: The COVID-19 confirmed cases with the onset time before March 1, 2020 in Guangdong Province were collected to analyze the demographic data, epidemiological characteristics, and specimen collection and testing data after discharge. Logistic regression model was used for influencing factors analysis of re-positive cases. Results: A total of 1 286 COVID-19 confirmed cases were included, the M(Q1,Q3) of age was 44(32,58)years, 617 cases were male, 224 cases were re-positive in anal and/or throat swabs with the re-positive rate 17.42%. The M(Q1,Q3) of age of re-positive cases was 35(23, 50) years, which was younger than that of re-negative cases age was those 46(33, 59) years (P<0.001). With the increase of age, re-positive rate decreased (χ2trend=52.73, P<0.001). 85.27% (191/224) of re-positive cases were found in 14 d after discharge, the duration time of re-positive status was 13(7, 24) d, and 81.69% (183/224) of re-positive cases were re-tested negative in 28 d after re-positive date. No fever and other symptoms had been observed among re-positive cases during the whole follow-up. No secondary infectious cases had been found among close contacts after 14 d of centralized isolation and sampling screening. Univariate logistic regression model analysis revealed that the influencing factors of the re-positive cases included age, occupation, clusters, clinical types, and admission time. Multivariate logistic regression model analysis revealed that age was an independent risk factor. Conclusions: SARS-CoV-2 viral nucleic acid re-positive is found in COVID-19 confirmed cases after discharge in Guangdong Province. Most re-positive cases are confirmed among 14 d after discharge and re-test to negative among 28 d after re-positive date. Age is an risk factor for re-positive cases after discharge.

Abstract
Conventional copper (Cu) metal surfaces are well recognized for their bactericidal properties. However, their slow bacteria-killing potency has historically excluded them as a rapid bactericidal material. We report the development of a robust bulk superhydrophilic micro-nano hierarchical Cu structure that possesses exceptional bactericidal efficacy. It resulted in a 4.41 log10 reduction (>99.99%) of the deadly Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) bacteria within 2 min vs. a 1.49 log10 reduction (96.75%) after 240 min on common Cu surfaces. The adhered cells exhibited extensive blebbing, loss of structural integrity and leakage of vital intracellular material, demonstrating the rapid efficacy of the micro-nano Cu structure in destructing bacteria membrane integrity. The mechanism was attributed to the synergistic degradation of the cell envelope through enhanced release and therefore uptake of the cytotoxic Cu ions and the adhesion-driven mechanical strain due to its rapid ultimate superhydrophilicity (contact angle drops to 0° in 0.18 s). The scalable fabrication of this micro-nano Cu structure was enabled by integrating bespoke precursor alloy design with microstructure preconditioning for dealloying and demonstrated on 2000 mm2 Cu surfaces. This development paves the way to the practical exploitation of Cu as a low-cost antibiotic-free fast bactericidal material.

Abstract
Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) in the treatment of diabetic foot (DF). Methods: Sixteen patients who were diagnosed with DF and treated with SCS from the Department of Pain Medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital, China Medical University from October 2015 to October 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Visual analogue scale (VAS), 36-item short form health survey (SF-36), transcutaneous oxygen partial pressure (TcPO2) and skin temperature of lower limbs were compared before and after treatment, and the complications were recorded. Results: Among the 16 patients, 14 were equipped with implantable pulse generator (IPG). The VAS scores decreased significantly from 7.5±1.2 before treatment to 2.6±0.8, 2.0±0.7, 1.6±0.6, 1.0±0.9, 0.9±0.9 at 1 day, 1 week, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after electrode implantation respectively (all P<0.05). At 12 months after treatment, the parameters of SF-36 were significantly different from those before treatment (all P<0.05). The TcPO2 was (23±5) mmHg before treatment and (38±6) mmHg at 1 week after treatment, with a statistical difference (P<0.05), and the temperature of lower limbs increased significantly (P<0.05). No serious complications were observed in all patients. Conclusion: SCS can relieve the pain of patients with DF, improve the microcirculation and blood supply of lower limbs, and thus promote the quality of life, with rare serious complications.

Abstract
To investigate the clinical effect of fibula transverse transport technique in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcer. Nine patients (7 males and 2 females) with diabetic foot ulcer were treated with fibula transverse transport technique from September 2017 to September 2020. The mean age was (55±9) years (ranged from 43 to 66 years). In terms of Wagner classification, 2 cases were in grade 2, 5 cases were in grade 3, and the other 2 cases were in grade 4. All of the cases involved ischemic ulcers or ischemic-nerve ulcers. The transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPO2) of the dorsal foot of the affected limb was measured, with the ulcer healing and TcPO2 changes recorded at follow-up. All the 9 patients were followed up for (23±12) months (3 to 38 months). It was found that all patients with foot ulcers were cured within (4.2±1.9) months (2 to 8 months), and all the patients obtained limb salvage. Besides, there was no serious complications occurred, such as skin necrosis and needle tract infection. Before the operation, the TcPO2 of the affected foot was (28.6±3.8) mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), while it was (35.0±5.6) mmHg three months after operation (P<0.05). The technique of fibula transverse transport can effectively improve the microcirculation function of diabetic foot, and it can promote the healing of the ulcer with few complications.

Abstract
An emerging inference is that vascular cells transfer their biological cargo to recipient cells by secretion of extracellular vesicles (EVs). This study explored the effects of EVs produced from VSMCs with Ang II (EVs-A) or LSW + Ang II on HUVECs. The EVs-A increase ROS production, activate inflammation, and upregulate the expression of adhesion molecules. Among the EVs-A, miR-22, miR-143, miR-144, and miR-155 were significantly downregulated, while VSMCs pre-incubated with LSW could produce improved EVs. RNA sequencing revealed differential expression of genes associated with endothelial dysfunction, including the TNF signaling pathway, NOD-like receptor signaling pathway, NF-κB signaling pathway, and fluid shear stress and atherosclerosis pathway. Finally, we found that LSW could improve endothelial function by repairing the expression of miRNAs in VSMCs. It also suggests a potential mechanism for the injury action of endogenous peptide Ang II and protective effects of exogenous peptide LSW on vascular endothelial cells.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical courses and outcomes of COVID-19 cases and the influencing factors in Guangdong province and provide basis for the formulation or adjustment of medical care and epidemic control strategy for COVID-19. Methods: We collected demographic data, medical histories, clinical courses and outcomes of 1 350 COVID-19 patients reported in Guangdong as of 4 March 2020 via epidemiological investigation and process tracking. Disease severity and clinical course characteristics of the patients and influencing factors of severe illness were analyzed in our study. Results: Among 1 350 cases of COVID-19 cases in Guangdong, 72 (5.3%) and 1 049 (77.7%) were mild and ordinary cases, 164 (12.1%) were severe cases, 58 (4.3%) were critical cases and 7 (0.5%) were fatal. The median duration of illness were 23 days (P(25), P(75): 18, 31 days) and the median length of hospitalization were 20 days (P(25), P(75): 15,27 days). For severe cases, the median time of showing severe manifestations was on the 12(th) day after onset (P(25), P(75): 9(th) to 15(th) days), and the median time of severe manifestation lasted for 8 days (P(25), P(75): 4, 14 days). Among 1 066 discharged/fetal cases, 36.4% (36/99) and 1.0% (1/99) of the mild cases developed to ordinary cases and severe cases respectively after admission; and 5.2% (50/968) and 0.6% (6/968) of the ordinary cases developed to severe cases, and critical cases respectively after admission. In severe cases, 11.4% developed to critical cases (10/88). The influencing factors for severe illness or worse included male (aHR=1.87, 95%CI: 1.43-2.46), older age (aHR=1.67, 95%CI: 1.51-1.85), seeking medical care on day 2-3 after onset (aHR=1.73, 95%CI: 1.20-2.50) pre-existing diabetes (aHR=1.75, 95%CI: 1.12-2.73) and hypertension (aHR=1.49, 95%CI: 1.06-2.09). Conclusions: The course of illness and length of hospitalization of COVID-19 cases were generally long and associated with severity of disease clinical outcomes. The severe cases were mainly occurred in populations at high risk. In the epidemic period, classified management of COVID-19 cases should be promoted according to needs for control and prevention of isolation and treatment for the purpose of rational allocation of medical resources.
