Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Nao-Ling-Su Capsule (NLSC) is a traditional prescription, which is composed of fifteen herbs such as epimedium, Polygala tenuifolia, and Schisandra chinensis. It has the effect of strengthening the brain, calming nerves, and protecting the kidney, which has been used clinically for many years to strengthen the brain and kidney. However, the effect of NLSC in the treatment of acute kidney injury (AKI) is still unclear. AIM OF THE STUDY The present study aims to elucidate the pharmacological actions of NLSC in the treatment of AKI. MATERIALS AND METHODS Molecular targets for NLSC and AKI were obtained from various databases, and then we built networks of interactions between proteins (PPI) by employing string databases. Additionally, we employed the DAVID database to conduct gene ontology (GO) enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses. Molecular docking was conducted to analyze the interaction between core components and their corresponding core targets. Next, the C57BL male mice model of ischemia/reperfusion damage (IRI) was developed, and the nephridial protective effect of NLSC was evaluated. The accuracy of the expected targets was confirmed using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The renal protective effect of NLSC was assessed using an immortalized human kidney tubular (HK-2) cell culture produced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). RESULTS Network pharmacology analysis identified 199 common targets from NLSC and AKI. STAT3, HSP90AA1, TP53, MAPK3, JUN, JAK2, and VEGFA could serve as potential drug targets and were associated with JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, etc. The molecular docking analysis confirmed significant docking activity between the main bioactive components and core targets, including STAT3 and KIM-1. Moreover, the AKI mice model was successfully established and NLSC pretreatment could improve renal function and alleviate renal damage. NLSC could alleviate renal inflammation and tubular cell apoptosis, and decrease the expression of STAT3 and KIM-1 in AKI mice. In vitro, both NLSC and drug-containing serum may protect HK-2 cells by inhibiting STAT3 signaling, especially STAT3-mediated apoptosis and KIM-1 expression. CONCLUSION NLSC could alleviate renal inflammation and apoptosis, exerting its beneficial effects by targeting the STAT3/KIM-1 pathway. NLSC is a promising candidate for AKI treatment and provides a new idea and method for the treatment of AKI.

Abstract
Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of a 3D printed self-stable zero-profile artificial vertebral body for anterior cervical corpectomy decompression and fusion in the treatment of ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) of the cervical spine. Methods: In this prospective randomized controlled trial, patients diagnosed with OPLL in Luohe Central Hospital from January to July 2022 were divided into a zero-profile group (3D printed self-stable zero-profile artificial vertebral body was used for internal fixation and fusion after anterior cervical subtotal decompression,) and titanium-mesh group (titanium-mesh and titanium plate were used for internal fixation and fusion after anterior cervical subtotal decompression) according to envelope random method. Operation time, intraoperative blood loss, Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score and improvement rate, incidence of postoperative prosthesis subsidence, and bone graft fusion were recorded and compared between the two groups. Results: Finally, 21 patients in the zero notch group and 20 patients in the titanium mesh group were included in the study and were followed-up. In the zero-profile group, there were 16 males and 5 females, aged (48.0±12.7) years. In the titanium-mesh group, there were 14 males and 6 females, aged (49.8±10.2) years. All the 41 patients successfully completed the operation. In the zero-profile group, the surgical time was (50.04±8.45) minutes, the blood loss was (95.38±26.07) ml and the hospitalization cost was (42.32±6.12) thousand yuan. In the titanium-mesh group, the surgical time was (59.20±11.95) minutes, the blood loss was (93.10±27.86) ml and the hospitalization cost was (42.10±6.71) thousand yuan. The surgical time in the zero-profile group was shorter than that in the titanium-mesh group (P=0.007), and there was no statistically significant difference in blood loss and hospitalization costs between the two groups (both P>0.05). The 41 patients were followed-up for (14.29±1.45) months. Four cases (20.0%) in the titanium mesh group experienced swallowing difficulties and 0 cases in the zero incision group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P=0.048). No intraoperative hematoma, spinal cord nerve recompression, airway crisis, incision infection complications, and no steel plate or screw breakage or displacement occurred after surgery. At the last follow-up, all cases had bone fusion. At the follow-up of 12 months after surgery, the JOA score of the zero incision group increased from preoperative (10.33±1.71) points to (15.47±0.81) points, with an improvement rate of 76.1%±15.7%; the JOA score of the titanium mesh group increased from (10.30±1.75) points to (15.30±0.92) points, with an improvement rate of 73.2%±16.7%; there was no statistically significant difference in improvement rate between the two groups (P=0.580). At the follow-up of 12 months after surgery, 1 case (4.8%) in the zero incision group and 8 cases (40.0%) in the titanium mesh group experienced implant sinking, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P=0.009). Conclusion: Compared with titanium-mesh, 3D printed self-stable zero-profile artificial vertebral body for the treatment of OPLL of the cervical spine can achieve good surgical efficacy, shorter surgical time, lower incidence of postoperative chronic swallowing discomfort, and can provide a better bone material bonding interface and be less prone to prosthesis settlement.

Abstract
Neuroimaging studies of the functional organization of human auditory cortex have focused on group-level analyses to identify tendencies that represent the typical brain. Here, we mapped auditory areas of the human superior temporal cortex (STC) in 30 participants by combining functional network analysis and 1-mm isotropic resolution 7T functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Two resting-state fMRI sessions, and one or two auditory and audiovisual speech localizer sessions, were collected on 3-4 separate days. We generated a set of functional network-based parcellations from these data. Solutions with 4, 6, and 11 networks were selected for closer examination based on local maxima of Dice and Silhouette values. The resulting parcellation of auditory cortices showed high intraindividual reproducibility both between resting state sessions (Dice coefficient: 69-78%) and between resting state and task sessions (Dice coefficient: 62-73%). This demonstrates that auditory areas in STC can be reliably segmented into functional subareas. The interindividual variability was significantly larger than intraindividual variability (Dice coefficient: 57%-68%, p<0.001), indicating that the parcellations also captured meaningful interindividual variability. The individual-specific parcellations yielded the highest alignment with task response topographies, suggesting that individual variability in parcellations reflects individual variability in auditory function. Furthermore, connectional homogeneity within networks was highest for the individual-specific parcellations. Our findings suggest that individual-level parcellations capture meaningful idiosyncrasies in auditory cortex organization.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy followed by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with Ph-like acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph-ALL) . Methods: Patients with Ph-ALL who underwent CAR-T therapy followed by allo-HSCT from March 2018 to August 2023 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were included, and their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Of the 21 patients, 14 were male and 7 were female. The median age at the time of CAR-T therapy was 22 (6-50) years. Seven patients had ABL1-like rearrangements, and 14 had JAK-STAT rearrangements. Prior to CAR-T therapy, 12 patients experienced hematologic relapse; 7 were multiparameter flow cytometry minimal residual disease (MFC-MRD) -positive and 2 were MFC-MRD-negative. CAR-T cells were derived from patients' autologous lymphocytes. Nine patients were treated with CD19 CAR-T cells, and 12 were treated with CD19/CD22 CAR-T cells. After assessment on day 28 after CAR-T therapy, 95.2% of the patients achieved complete remission, with an MRD-negative remission rate of 75%. Nineteen patients developed grade 0-2 cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and 2 patients suffered grade 3 CRS, all cases of which resolved after treatment. All patients underwent allo-HSCT after CAR-T therapy. The median time from CAR-T therapy to allo-HSCT was 63 (38-114) days. Five patients experienced relapse after CAR-T therapy, including four with hematologic relapse and one with molecular relapse. The 3-year overall survival (OS) rates in the ABL1 and JAK-STAT groups were (83.3±15.2) % and (66.6±17.2) %, respectively (P=0.68) . The 3-year relapse-free survival (RFS) rates were (50.0±20.4) % and (55.6±15.4) % in the ABL1 and JAK-STAT groups, respectively. There was no significant difference in 3-year OS or RFS between the two groups. Conclusions: CAR-T therapy followed by allo-HSCT leads to rapid remission in most patients with Ph-ALL and prolongs leukemia-free survival.

Abstract
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is a common cause of low back pain. Understanding its molecular mechanisms is the basis for developing specific treatment. To demonstrate that miR-22-3p is critical in the regulation of IDD, miRNA microarray analyses are conducted in conjunction with in vivo and in vitro experiments. The miR-22-3p knockout (KO) mice show a marked decrease in the histological scores. Bioinformatic analysis reveals that miR-22-3p plays a mechanistic role in the development of IDD by targeting SIRT1, which in turn activates the JAK1/STAT3 signaling pathway. This is confirmed by a luciferase reporter assay and western blot analysis. Therapeutically, the delivery of miR-22-3p inhibitors and mimics through the synthesized nanoparticles in the IDD model alleviates and aggravates IDD, respectively. The nanocarriers enhance transportation of miR-22-3p to nucleus pulposus cells, thus enabling the in vivo inhibition of miR-22-3p for therapeutic purposes and consequently promoting the development of miRNA-specific drugs for IDD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the changes in gray matter volume in depressive-like mice and explore the possible mechanism. METHODS Twenty-four 6-week-old C57 mice were randomized equally into control group and model group, and the mice in the model group were subjected to chronic unpredictable mild stimulation (CUMS) for 35 days. Magnetic resonance imaging was performed to examine structural changes of the grey matter volume in depressive-like mice. The expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the grey matter of the mice was detected using Western blotting and immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS Compared with the control mice, the mice with CUMS showed significantly decreased central walking distance in the open field test (P < 0.05) and increased immobile time in forced swimming test (P < 0.05). Magnetic resonance imaging showed that the volume of the frontal cortex was significantly decreased in CUMS mice (P < 0.001, when the mass level was greater than or equal to 10 756, the FDRc was corrected with P=0.05). Western blotting showed that the expression of mature BDNF in the frontal cortex was significantly decreased in CUMS mice (P < 0.05), and its expression began to decrease after the exposure to CUMS as shown by immunofluorescence staining. The volume of different clusters obtained by voxel-based morphometry (VBM) analysis was correlated with the expression level of mature BDNF detected by Western blotting (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The decrease of frontal cortex volume after CUMS is related with the reduction of mature BDNF expression in the frontal cortex.

Abstract
Lung perfusion monitoring can provide accurate information on changes in pulmonary blood flow in critically ill patients, and thus help guide clinical diagnosis and treatment. However, due to inconveniences such as patient transport, conventional imaging techniques are unable to meet the demand for real-time monitoring of lung perfusion, more convenient and reliable real-time functional imaging techniques should be developed to optimise cardiopulmonary management in critically ill patients. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive, radiation-free, bedside functional imaging technique that can be used to assess lung perfusion in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome, pulmonary embolisms and other conditions, thereby assisting with the diagnosis of disease, the adjustment of treatment protocols, and the assessment of treatment outcomes. In this review, we focused on advances in EIT for lung perfusion monitoring in critically ill patients.

Methods: The study subjects were Chinese residents aged 35 to 64 years who completed the heart age assessment by WeChat official account"Heart Strengthening Action"through the internet from January 2018 to April 2021. Information such as age, gender, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, total cholesterol (TC), smoking history, and diabetes history was collected. The heart age and excess heart age were calculated according to the characteristics of individual cardiovascular risk factors and the heart aging was defined as excess heart age≥5 years and 10 years respectively. The heart age and standardization rate were calculated respectively based on the population standardization of the 7th census in 2021.CA trend test was used to analyze the changing trend of excess heart age rate and population attributable risk (PAR) was used to calculate the contribution of risk factors. Results: The mean age of 429 047 subjects was 49.25±8.66 years. The male accounted for 51.17% (219 558/429 047) and the excess heart age was 7.00 (0.00, 11.00) years. The excess heart age rate defined by excess heart age≥5 years and≥10 years was 57.02% (the standardized rate was 56.83%) and 38.02% (the standardized rate was 37.88%) respectively. With the increase of the age and number of risk factors, the excess heart age rate of the two definitions showed an upward trend according to the result of the trend test analysis (P<0.001). The top two risk factors of the PAR for excess heart age were overweight or obese and smoking. Among them, the male was smoking and overweight or obese, while the female was overweight or obese and having hypercholesterolemia. Conclusion: The excess heart age rate is high in Chinese residents aged 35 to 64 years and the contribution of overweight or obese, smoking and having hypercholesterolemia ranks high.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Solanum lyratum Thunb (SLT) is a perennial plant of the Solanaceae family, and is extensively used in the clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine. Malaria, oedema, gonorrhoea, cancer, wind and fever, jaundiced hepatitis, cholecystitis and rheumatoid arthritis are among the diseases that it is used to treat. To offer a foundation for further development and usage of SLT, the pieces of literature about the chemical composition and pharmacological action of SLT were reviewed and analysed. KEY FINDINGS The chemical constituents of SLT mainly included steroids, alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, anthraquinones, phenylpropanoids and others. Pharmacological action mainly contains anti-tumour, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidation and other pharmacological actions, among them, the anti-tumour effect is particularly outstanding. SUMMARY At present, studies on the pharmacological effects of SLT mainly focus on alkaloids and steroidal saponins. In the follow-up studies, studies on the pharmacological activities of other chemical components in SLT, such as flavonoids and terpenoids, should be strengthened. It has the potential to pave the way for more research and development of novel SLT medicines.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore the mechanism of Qingre Huoxue Fang (QRHXF) treatment on anti-angiogenesis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) based on network pharmacology and in vitro experiments. We used the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP) and Therapeutic Target (TTD) database to extract the active components of QRHXF and potential targets for regulating angiogenesis. First, we used Cytoscape bioinformatics software to construct the network of QRHXF-angiogenesis and screened the potential targets. Then, we performed gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis on the potential core targets. In addition, enzyme-linked immune assay and Western blot were used for in vitro validation and to verify the effects of different concentrations of QRHXF on the expression levels of the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor type 1 (VEGFR-1) and VEGFR-2 cytokines and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3k) and Ak strain transforming (Akt) proteins in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). In results, we screened 179 core QRHXF antiangiogenic targets, including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) cytokines. Enrichment analysis showed that the targets were enriched in 56 core signaling pathways, including PI3k and Akt. In vitro experiments showed that the migration distance and square, adhesion optical density (OD) values, and the number of branch points in tube formation significantly decreased in the QRHXF group compared with the induced group (P<0.01). Notably, the serum levels of VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2 were lower compared with the induced group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). In addition, the expressions of PI3K and p-Akt proteins were decreased in the middle- and high doses groups (P<0.01). This study's results suggest that the downstream mechanism of QRHXF anti-angiogenesis might inhibit the PI3K-Akt signalling pathway and downregulate VEGF-1 and VEGF-2.

Abstract
Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium Viride is used in traditional Chinese medicine as Geqingpi and Sihuaqingpi varieties. We uesd UHPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS method and HPLC-QqQ-MS/MS to analyze the chemical compounds in these varieties. Principal components analysis and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis were used to analyze the quantitative results. Network pharmacology and molecular docking technology were used to forecast Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium Viride treatment mechanisms in irritable bowel syndrome. We identified 44 main compounds in Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium Viride. Compared to Sihuaqingpi, Geqingpi had higher narirutin, didymin, naringenin, and hesperetin, and lower hesperidin, isosinensetin, nobiletin, 3,5,6,7,8,3',4'-hexamethoxyflavone, tangeretin. Tangeretin, nobiletin, narirutin, didymin and isosinensetin were the main compounds distinguishing Geqingpi from Sihuaqingpi. We found that the MAPK signaling pathway, which is closely related to irritable bowel syndrome, was an important target pathway. TP53, HRAS, MAPK1, AKT1, and EGFR were important targets in this pathway. Eriodictyol-7-O-rutinoside, narirutin, limonin, hesperidin showed good binding ability to the five targets. Orientin, unique to Sihuaqingpi, bound well to TP53, MAPK1, AKT1, and EGFR, while rhoifolin bound well to TP53, HRAS, MAPK1, AKT1, and EGFR. Hesperetin, unique to Geqingpi, bound well to TP53, HRAS, and MAPK1, while naringenin bound well to HRAS. Hesperidin and didymin bound well to TP53, MAPK1, AKT1 and EGFR.

Abstract
Steaming is a characteristic pharmaceutical skill in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Polygonum multiflorum radix (PM) and its steamed products have been used in Asia for centuries. Raw Polygonum multiflorum radix (RPM) is commonly used to promote defecation but can exert toxicity, especially in liver injury. However, RPM can be made converted into Polygoni multiflori radix praeparata (PMP) by steaming; this is considered a good method to reduce defecation and liver injury caused by PM in Asia. The chemical constituents of TCM are the key to its action. We systematically analyzed the effect of steaming on PM constituents, defecation, and liver injury. We identified 13 main constituents from PM and PMP; the results showed that after being steamed, two constituents (TSG, catechin) had decreased, six constituents (such as procyanidin B1 or B2) had disappeared, four constituents (such as emodin, physcion) had increased, emodin-8-O-β-D-glucoside remained unchanged in PMP. Pharmacological experiments showed that PM could promote defecation; however, there were no obvious effects in response to PMP. Only a high dose of PM for 14 days caused some degree of liver injury, although this injury disappeared after 14 days of drug withdrawal. Network pharmacology and molecular docking studies showed that TSG, emodin and physcion were the most effective in promoting defecation and causing liver injury. Collectively, our findings show that steaming can reduce the effect of PM on promoting defecation and reducing liver injury. TSG may be one of the important constituents in PM that can promote defecation and cause liver injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Naolingsu capsule (NLSC) is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) prescription in China. It is widely used to treat neurasthenia, insomnia, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, and other diseases. However, its inalienable chemical groups have not been carried out. METHODS We first established the nontargeted investigation based on fingerprinting coupled with UHPLC-Q/TOF-MS/MS. Second, the quantitative methods based on HPLC-DAD and LC-MS/MS were connected to the synchronous quantitative assurance of eleven and fourteen marker compounds. Finally, the quantitative information was processed with SIMCA-P for differentiating the distinctive bunches of samples to screen the foremost appropriate chemical markers. RESULTS The similarity of HPLC fingerprints of 24 batches of NLSC samples was 0.645-0.992. In total, 37 flavonoids, 21 organic acids, 22 lignans, 13 saponins, and 20 other compounds were recognized in NLSC by the UHPLC-Q/TOF-MS/MS method. The quantitative determination was approved for linearity, discovery limits, accuracy, repeatability, soundness, and precision. Principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) models accomplished the great classification of the samples from the five enterprises, respectively. Rehmannioside D (RD), methylophiopogonanone A (MPA), 3,6'-disinapoyl sucrose (DS), schisandrin B (SSB), epimedin C (EC), icariin (ICA), and jujuboside B (JB) were considered as the potential chemical markers for NLSC quality control. CONCLUSION The experimental results illustrated that the combinative strategy was valuable for quick pharmaceutical quality assessment, which can potentially differentiate the origin, decide the realness, and assess the overall quality of the formulation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the survival rates and quality of life of human papillomaviruse (HPV)-negative patients with advanced oropharyngeal cancer after different combined treatments with chemotherapy, surgery and radiotherapy. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the data of patients with oropharyngeal cancer hospitalized in our hospital from January, 2015 to December, 2020, and after case analysis of the clinical, imaging and pathological data, 405 patients were included in this study and grouped according to the treatments they received. Kaplan-Meier and Log-rank analysis were used to calculate the overall survival rate and the survival rate of patients with different treatments. The self-rated quality of life of the tumor-free survivors was assessed using UW-QOL (4) questionnaire and compared among the patients with different treatments. RESULTS Among the 405 patients included in this study, 146 received treatments with chemotherapy+surgery+radiotherapy (CSRT), 138 received surgery+radiotherapy (SRT) and 121 were treated with radiotherapy+chemotherapy (RCT). The overall survival rates of the 3 groups at 1, 3 and 5 years were 85.1%, 67.1% and 56.9%, respectively, and the survival rates of patients receiving CSRT, SRT and RCT did not differ significantly (P > 0.05). A total of 280 UW-QOL (4) questionnaires were distributed and 202 (72.14%) were retrieved. The average total scores decreased in the order of CSRT > SRT > RCT; the scores were significantly higher in CSRT group than in SRT and RCT (P < 0.05), but did not differ significantly between SRT and RCT groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION CSRT, SRT and RCT are all treatment options for locally advanced oropharyngeal cancer, but CSRT may achieve better quality of life of the patients than SRT and RCT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE SIRT1 was associated with AS risk and EPCs were reported to participate in the endothelial repair in Coronary Atherosclerosis (CAS). In this study, we explored the role of SIRT1 in AS mice and also its modulation in EPCs. METHODS AND MATERIALS ApoE-/-mice were fed on high-fat and high-glucose diet to establish the AS animal model with the normally-raised C57BL/6 mice as a control group. SIRT1 activator, SRT 2104 was injected intravenously into 5 ApoE-/-mice and its inhibitor Nicotinamide was injected in tail in another 5 ApoE-/-mice. Weight changes were recorded. Blood samples were taken from posterior orbital venous plexus and were detected by automatic biochemical analyzer. HE staining displayed the pathological conditions while Immunohistochemistry (IHC) evaluated the CD34+/VEGFR2+ relative density in the aorta tissues. EPCs were isolated from bone marrow and verified using immunofluorescence staining (IFS). The modulatory mechanism of SIRT1 in EPCs were studied by using RT-PCR, MTT, Western Blot and colony formation, scratch methods. RESULTS SIRT1 activator negatively regulated the weight and TC, TG and LDL levels, alleviated the lesion conditions and decreased the CD34+/VEGFR2+ density compared to the AS control. In vitro, SIRT1 activator promoted the proliferation and migration of EPCs and activated wnt/β-catenin/GSK3β signaling pathway. SIRT1 activator also inhibited the autophagy biomarkers ATG1 and LC3II. Furthermore, inhibitor of autophagy promoted SIRT1 expression and induced EPC proliferation, migration and activated wnt/β-catenin/GSK3β pathway. The suppression of the wnt/β-catenin/GSK3β pathway inhibited SIRT1 expression in EPCs, attenuated the proliferation and migration and promoted autophagy of EPCs. CONCLUSION SIRT1 activation might be protective in AS mice through autophagy inhibition in EPCs via wnt/β-catenin/GSK3β signaling pathway.

Abstract
The simulation database of The Three Hundred Project has been used to pick synthetic clusters of galaxies with properties close to the observational targets of the NIKA2 camera Sunyaev–Zeldovich (SZ) Large Program. Cross–matching of cluster parameters such as mass and redshift of the cluster in the two databases has been implemented to generate the so–called twin samples for the Large Program. This SZ Large Program is observing a selection of galaxy clusters at intermediate and high redshift (0:5 < z < 0:9), covering one order of magnitude in mass. These are SZ–selected clusters from the Planck and Atacama Cosmology Telescope catalogs, wherein the selection is based on their integrated Compton parameter values, Y500: the value of the parameter within the characteristics radius R500.
The Three Hundred hydrodynamical simulations provide us with hundreds of clusters satisfying these redshift, mass, and Y500 requirements. In addition to the standard post-processing analysis of the simulation, mock observational maps are available mimicking X–ray, optical, gravitational lensing, radio, and SZ observations of galaxy clusters. The primary goal of employing the twin samples is to compare different cluster mass proxies from synthetic X–ray, SZ effect and optical maps (via the velocity dispersion of member galaxies and lensing κ-maps) of the clusters. Eventually, scaling laws between different mass proxies and the cluster mass will be cross–correlated to reduce the scatter on the inferred mass and the mass bias will be related to various physical parameters.

Abstract
Cluster number count is a major cosmological probe for the next generation of cosmological large scale-structure surveys like the one expected from the Euclid satellite mission. Cosmological constraints will be mainly limited by the understanding of the selection function (SF), which characterize the probability of detecting a cluster of a given mass and redshift. The SF can be estimated by injecting realistic simulated clusters into the survey and re-applying the detection procedure. For this purpose we intend to use The Three Hundreds project, a 324 cluster sample simulated with full-physics hydrodynamical re-simulations. In this paper we concentrate on the study of the distribution of member galaxies in the cluster sample. First, we study possible resolution effects by comparing low and high resolution simulations. Finally, accounting for the latter we derive the density profiles of the member galaxies and discuss their evolution with cluster mass and redshift.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the serum cyclic polypeptide biomarkers for ovarian cancer diagnosis. Methods: A total of 54 patients with epithelial ovarian cancer confirmed by pathology in Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from March 2018 to September 2018 were selected as the study subjects, and 40 healthy women with normal examination results in the cancer screening center were selected as the control. All of the samples were randomly divided into training set and validation set at the ratio of 1∶1 with a random number. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) combined with magnetic bead technology was used for detecting peptide profiling in serum samples to screen significantly differently expressed peptides between ovarian cancer group and control group of the training set (score>5). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to screen differential peptide peaks with area under curve (AUC) ≥0.8, sensitivity and specificity>90% in the training set and validation set. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was further used to determine the composition of differentially expressed peptides. Results: By comparing the peptide profiles of the two groups, 102 differential peptide peaks were initially detected in the mass-to-charge ratio range of 1 000 to 10 000. ROC curve analysis showed that there were 42 differential peptide peaks with AUC ≥0.8 in both training set and validation set, 19 of which were highly expressed in ovarian cancer group, and 23 were lowly expressed. There were 15 different peptide peaks in highly expressed ovarian cancer group with sensitivity and specificity over 90%. The mass-to-charge ratios were 7 744.27, 5 913.41, 5 329.87, 4 634.21, 4 202.02, 3 879.26, 3 273.35, 3 253.79, 3 234.34, 2 950.33, 2 664.51, 2 018.38, 1 893.37, 1 498.69 and 1 287.55. There were 15 different peptide peaks in lowly expressed ovarian cancer group with sensitivity and specificity over 90%, the mass-to-charge ratios were 9 288.46, 7 759.77, 5 925.24, 4 652.77, 4 210.42, 3 887.02, 3 279.90, 3 240.82, 2 962.15, 2 932.70, 2 022.42, 1 897.16, 1 501.69, 1 337.38 and 1 290.13. No protein composition was identified in 15 different peptide peaks in lowly expressed ovarian cancer group. The two protein compositions identified in 15 different peptide peaks in highly expressed ovarian cancer group were recombinant serglycin (SRGN) and fibinogen alpha chain (FGA), the mass-to-charge ratios of which were 1 498.696 and 5 913.417, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of the two proteins for ovarian cancer diagnosis were 100%, 100% and 90.9%, 100%, respectively. Conclusion: SRGN and FGA are highly expressed in the serum of ovarian cancer patients, which may be potential diagnostic markers for ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Objective: To clarify the correlation of the expression of glia maturation factor-β (GMF-β) with Ki-67 in astrocytoma, and to investigate the prognostic implications of combined detection of GMF-β and Ki-67. Methods: One hundred and forty human astrocytoma samples (WHO Ⅱ-Ⅳ grade) were collected at Southwest Hospital, Army Medical University (the Third Military Medical University), China from 2006 to 2009. Clinicopathological information and 3-year follow-up data were collected. Expression of GMF-β and Ki-67 was detected by single and double immunohistochemical staining, then the association of GMF-β expression with Ki-67 and its significance in prognostic evaluation of astrocytoma were statistically analyzed. Results: GMF-β expression in astrocytoma cells was correlated to both tumor grade and Ki-67 (both P<0.05); Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that GMF-β and Ki-67 expression were negatively correlated to the 3 year-survival rates, respectively (both P<0.01). Further analysis demonstrated that the two factors were co-influenced on survival, showing a trend of "GMF-βlow Ki-67low>GMF-βhigh Ki-67low>GMF-βlow Ki-67high>GMF-βhigh Ki-67high" in 3-year survival rate with significant intergroup differences (P<0.05, P<0.01). Conclusions: GMF-β expression is positively associated with Ki-67 in astrocytoma. Combined detection of GMF-β and Ki-67 can predict prognosis of patients with glioma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biliary tract cancers (BTCs) are rare and highly heterogenous malignant neoplasms. Because obtaining BTC tissues is challenging, the purpose of this study was to explore the potential roles of bile as a liquid biopsy medium in patients with BTC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixty-nine consecutive patients with suspected BTC were prospectively enrolled in this study. Capture-based targeted sequencing was performed on tumor tissues, whole blood cells, plasma, and bile samples using a large panel consisting of 520 cancer-related genes. RESULTS Of the 28 patients enrolled in this cohort, tumor tissues were available in eight patients, and plasma and bile were available in 28 patients. Somatic mutations were detected in 100% (8/8), 71.4% (20/28), and 53.6% (15/28) of samples comprising tumor tissue DNA, bile cell-free DNA (cfDNA), and plasma cfDNA, respectively. Bile cfDNA showed a significantly higher maximum allele frequency than plasma cfDNA (P = 0.0032). There were 56.2% of somatic single-nucleotide variant (SNVs)/insertions and deletions (indels) shared between bile and plasma cfDNA. When considering the genetic profiles of tumor tissues as the gold standard, the by-variant sensitivity and positive predictive value for SNVs/indels in bile cfDNA positive for somatic mutations were both 95.5%. The overall concordance for SNVs/indels in bile was significantly higher than that in plasma (99.1% versus 78.3%, P < 0.0001). Moreover, the sensitivity of CA 19-9 combined with bile cfDNA achieved 96.4% in BTC diagnosis. CONCLUSION We demonstrated that bile cfDNA was superior to plasma cfDNA in the detection of tumor-related genomic alterations. Bile cfDNA as a minimally invasive liquid biopsy medium might be a supplemental approach to confirm BTC diagnosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the preoperative radiomics features (RFs) and construct a nomogram for predicting postoperative recurrence of stage Ⅰ-Ⅲ clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC). METHODS The clinicopathological data and preoperative enhanced CT images collected from 256 patients with ccRCC were used as the training dataset (175 patients) and test dataset (81 patients). The enhanced CT images of the tumor were segmented using ITK-SNAP software, and the RFs were extracted using the PyRadiomics computing platform. In the training dataset, the RFs were screened based on Lasso-CV algorithm, and the Rad_score was calculated. The Clinic factors were screened by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis of the clinical and pathological factors and CT characteristics. The Rad_score, Clinic、Rad_score + Clinic nomograms were constructed and verified using the test dataset. The performance, discrimination power and calibration of the nomograms were compared, and their clinical value was evaluated using decision curve analysis. RESULTS Six RFs were retained to calculate the Rad_score. The Clinic factors included Rad_score, KPS score, platelet, calcification and TNM clinical stage. In terms of discrimination, the Rad_score + Clinic nomogram showed better performance (AUC=0.84 for training set; AUC=0.85 for test set) than the Rad_score nomogram (AUC=0.78 for training set, P=0.029; AUC=0.77 for Test set, P=0.025) and Clinic nomogram (AUC=0.77 for training set, P=0.014; AUC=0.77 for test set, P=0.011). In terms of calibration, the P value for goodness of fit test of the Rad_score+Clinic nomogram was 0.065 for the training set and 0.628 for the test set. Decision curve analysis showed a greater clinical value of the Rad_score+Clinic nomogram with Rad_score than the Clinic nomogram without Rad_score. CONCLUSION The nomogram based on preoperative CT RFs has a high value for predicting postoperative recurrence of stage Ⅰ-Ⅲ ccRCC to facilitate individualized treatment of RCC.

OBJECTIVE To determine the risk factors of occurrence and treatment failure of peritoneal dialysis associatedperitonitis (PDAP) due to polymicrobial infections. METHODS We retrospectively collected the clinical data of patients with PDAP from the peritoneal dialysis (PD) centers in 4 general hospitals in Jilin Province from 2013 to 2019. The patients were divided, according to the results of peritoneal dialysate culture, into polymicrobial PDAP group and control group for comparison of the clinical data, treatment outcomes, and long-term prognosis. The independent risk factors of the occurrence and treatment failure of polymicrobial PDAP were explored using multivariate regression analysis. RESULTS We recruited a total of 625 patients from the 4 PD centers, among whom 1085 episodes of PDAP were recorded. Polymicrobial PDAP accounted for 7.6% of the total PDAP episodes, and this proportion increased from 5.3% in 2013-2016 to 9.4% in 2017-2019 (P= 0.012). Compared with the control group, polymicrobial PDAP group had higher proportions of elderly patients and patients with refractory PDAP, with greater white blood cell counts in the first-day dialysate and longer course of antibiotic treatment (P < 0.05). The risk of catheter removal and treatment failure (catheter removal or PDAP-related death) in polymicrobial PDAP group was 2.972 times (OR=2.972, 95% CI: 1.634-5.407, P < 0.001) and 2.692 times (OR=2.692, 95% CI: 1.578-4.591, P < 0.001) that in the control group, respectively. The risk of withdrawal from PD (technical failure + all-cause death) was 1.5- fold higher in polymicrobial PDAP group than that in the control group (OR=1.500, 95% CI: 1.085-2.074, P=0.014). Elderly patients (>65 years) had a 1.937-fold higher risk of experiencing polymicrobial PDAP than younger patients (OR=1.937, 95% CI: 1.207-3.109, P= 0.006). Diabetes mellitus (OR=5.554, 95% CI: 1.021-30.201, P=0.047), mixed fungal infeciton (OR=343.687, 95% CI: 21.554- 5480.144, P < 0.001), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection (OR=11.518, 95% CI: 1.632 to 81.310, P=0.014) were associated with increased risks of treatment failure by 4.554, 342.687 and 10.518 times, respectively. CONCLUSION The proportion of polymicrobial PDAP in the total PDAP cases tends to increase in recent years. Polymicrobial infection is an independent risk factor of both treatment failure and poor prognosis in patients with PDAP. An old age is an independent risk factor for polymicrobial PDAP, while diabetes mellitus and infections with mixed fungi or Pseudomonas aeruginosa are independent risk factors for treatment failure.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the clinical effect of lumbar discectomy and nerve root canal's enlargement preserving the continuity of supraspinous ligament in the treatment of lumbar degenerative disease. Methods: The data of patients with lumbar degenerative disease who underwent operation from 2016 to 2018 were analyzed retrospectively, and the patients were divided into two groups according to the different operation. The treatment group (17 cases) was treated with recapping laminoplasty, lumbar discectomy and nerve root canal's enlargement, and the control group (28 cases) was treated with total laminectomy, nerve root canal's enlargement, lumbar discectomy, interbody fusion and internal fixation (PLIF). All patients were followed up for 12 to 27 months (mean 17.8 months). Japanese Orthopaedic Association Scores(JOA) and visual analogue scale(VAS) of pain were used to evaluate the clinical effect before and after the operation, lumbar dynamical X-ray and Cobb angle were collecting for imaging evaluation, and the adjacent segment degeneration at the last follow-up was recorded. Results: There was no significant difference in preoperative JOA score, VAS score and Lumbar Cobb angle between the two groups (all P>0.05). The operation time in the treatment group was shorter than that in the control group, and the blood loss during operation in the treatment group was lower than that in the control group, the bed rest time of the treatment group after operation was shorter than that in the control group ((79±14) vs (118±17) min, (151±38) vs (324±70) ml and (3.4±0.7) vs (4.3±1.0) d,respectively; t=-8.508, -10.724, -3.244, all P<0.01). In addition, compared with the control group, the volume of postoperative drainage in the treatment group also decreased significantly (t=-5.637, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in JOA score between the two groups 1 year after the operation (P>0.05), but there was significant difference in VAS score between the two groups, the treatment group was better than the control group (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the lumbar Cobb angle in the treatment group increased significantly one year after the operation (55.3°±3.2° vs 38.4°±6.2°, t=10.391, P<0.05). During the follow-up, no loosening or fracture of the implants was found in all patients. Conclusion: Treatment of lumbar degenerative diseases with recapping laminoplasty and nerve root canal's decompression preserving the continuity of supraspinous ligament by ultrasound osteotome has the same clinical effect as PLIF. It has the advantages of shortening operation time, less bleeding, better maintenance of lumbar lordosis after operation and reduction of adjacent segment degeneration.

Abstract
Objective: To compare clinical outcomes of microsurgical bilateral decompression via unilateral approach (MBDU) between trans longissimus and iliocostalis approach, a novel lateral paraspinal approach(LPA), and classic Wiltseapproach for single level degenerative lumbar stenosis. Methods: LPA approach was researched by imaging measurement and cadaver anatomy. Retrospective analysis of a total 124 cases(male/female 75/49, aged(55±14) years) received single-level MBDU due to degenerative lumbar stenosis from 2016 to 2018 in Beijing Tiantan Hospital. Patients were categorized into two groups according to spinal canal morphology. Group A: trefoil shape (n=48), received MBDU via LPA; Group B: round & oval shape (n=76), received MBDU via Wiltse approach. Clinical parameters, including visual analogue scale (VAS) of pain, OswestryDability Index (ODI), satisfaction rate were assessed before the operation and at the latest follow-up. The internal fixation and intervertebral fusion were evaluated by X-ray and CT.The data were compared with single sample t test between the two groups. Results: The feasibility of trans longissimus and iliocostalis approach was proved by imaging measurement and anatomic study. The tube's maximum tilt angle in LPA group was 65°, and it was 40°in Wiltse group. There was no significantly difference in the operating time, bleeding and drainage volume between the two groups((120±27) min vs (115±32) min, (104±31) ml vs (110±41) ml, (50±15) ml vs (47±18) ml, respectively, t=1.246,-1.917,1.730,all P>0.05). In both groups, VAS and ODI scores significantly improved at the latest follow-up when compared with those before the operation (all P<0.05), but those were all comparable between the two groups(all P>0.05). The excellent rate of subjective satisfaction for the clinical efficacy in group A and B was 89.6%(43/48) and 86.8%(66/76) respectively (χ(2)=0.208,P>0.05). Conclusions: LPA approachfor microsurgical bilateral decompression via unilateral approach (MBDU) in degenerative lumbar stenosis is safe and effective, it has advantages in direct vison of contralateral nerve root canal decompression for trefoil shaped spinal canal.

Abstract
PURPOSE Laparoscopic high ligation of the internal inguinal ring is an alternative procedure for treatment of pediatric inguinal hernia (PIH), with a major trend toward increasing use of extracorporeal knotting and decreasing use of working ports. We have utilized this laparoscopic technique to treat the entire spectrum of PIH (including incarcerated cases) for more than 17 years, and the technique continues to evolve and improve. We herein report our latest modification of this minimally invasive technique, namely single-site laparoscopic percutaneous extraperitoneal closure (SLPEC) of hernia sac high ligation using an ordinary taper needle, and evaluate its safety and efficacy. METHODS From July 2016 to July 2019, 790 children with indirect PIH were treated by laparoscopic surgery. All patients underwent high ligation surgery with a modified single-site laparoscopic technique mainly performed by extracorporeal suturing with an ordinary closed-eye taper needle (1/2 arc 11 × 34). The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS All surgeries were successful without serious complications. A contralateral patent processus vaginalis (CPPV) was found intraoperatively and subsequently repaired in 190 patients (25.4%). The mean operative time was 15 min (8-25 min) for 557 unilateral hernias and 21 min (14-36 min) for 233 bilateral hernias. The mean postoperative stay was 20 h. Minor complications occurred in five patients (0.63%) and were managed properly, with no major impact on the final outcomes. No recurrence was noted in the patients who were followed up for 6-42 months. No obvious scar was present postoperatively. CONCLUSION Modified SLPEC of hernia sac high ligation using an ordinary taper needle for repair of indirect PIH is a safe, reliable, and minimally invasive procedure with satisfactory outcome, with no special device being needed. It is easy to learn and perform and is worthy of popularization in the clinical setting.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The polycistronic miR-302 cluster encodes five miRNA genes that have an important role in the regulation of embryonic stem cell function. Studies showed that the miR-302 cluster can reprogram both mouse and human fibroblasts to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) with high efficiency. The aim of this study was to generate an inducible lentivirus that expresses miR-302 cluster in order to further investigate somatic cell reprogramming by these miRNAs. MATERIALS AND METHODS The miR-302 cluster was amplified by polymerase chain reaction technique from human genomic DNA and was ligated into pTRIPz, an inducible lentiviral vector. RESULTS MRC5 fibroblasts and HEK293 (human embryonic kidney) cells were infected with pTRIPz-302 cluster lentivirus and the family of 302 miRNAs were strongly expressed in HEK293 cells but lowly expressed in MRC5 fibroblasts. When cultured in hESC conditions, MRC5 cells expressed only low levels of DNMT3B, Nanog, Oct4 and Lin28 and failed to show stem cell induction. The red fluorescent expression seen in the majority of MRC5 cells, indicated that the rate of infection by lentivirus was efficient. DISCUSSION The efficiency of reprogramming may be improved perhaps by either using a different cell type or a high expression vector with a different type of promoter.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the safety and efficiency of ultrasonic bone curette used in anterior cervical discectomy and fusion surgery. Methods: As a retrospective study, we collected and analyzed the clinical data of 47 patients receiving anterior cervical discectomy and fusion surgery in Luohe Central Hospital from January 2014 to January 2017, there were 26 males and 21 females with a mean age of (52±9) years. According to the different surgical tools used in the process of decompression by resecting osteophytes or bone like an inverted Chinese character "" located at the posterior margin of the vertebral body, the patients were divided into two groups: ultrasonic bone curette group (group A) and traditional tools group (group B). The operating time, volume of intraoperative blood losing, complications, Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score before and after the operation and improvement rate were recorded in the two groups. The t test was used to compare the data between the two groups. Results: In group A, the operating time was (47±7) min, blood loss was (49±4) ml, 1 case experienced urinary tract infection and there was no cerebrospinal fluid leakage or spinal cord injury. In group B, the operating time was (54±12) min and the blood loss was (117±16) ml, cerebrospinal fluid leakage occurred in 2 patients and the incision healed one-stage by local compression, hoarseness happened in 1 case and it disappeared after 2 weeks, 2 patients had swallowing discomfort and recovered in one month, no spinal cord injury occurred in this group. The operating time and blood loss in group A were lower than those in group B (t=2.691, 20.704, both P<0.05). And the incidence of complications in group A were lower than that in group B (χ(2)=4.157, P=0.041). The JOA score of group A at 3 days after surgery was improved for 39.0% when compared with that before the surgery, and it was improved for 71.6% at one year after the surgery. The JOA score in group B at 3 days after surgery was elevated for 38.7% from that before the surgery, and it increased for 69.4% at one year after the surgery. There was no significant different in JOA score before the surgery, 3 days and one year after the surgery between the two groups (t=0.611, 1.076, 0.061, all P>0.05). Conclusion: In the process of decompression by resecting osteophytes or bone located at the posterior margin of the vertebral body in the anterior cervical discectomy and fusion surgery, ultrasonic bone curette is safe and effective, and it can effectively shorten the operating time, decrease the blood loss and cut down the incidence of complications.

Abstract
Microvascular coupler devices have gained wide acceptance as an alternative to the traditional hand-sewn technique in reconstructive surgery. However, no study has directly compared the efficacy of the coupler and hand-sewn techniques in arterial anastomosis during head and neck reconstruction surgery. A total of 123 patients who underwent surgery performed by a single surgeon between 2016 and 2018 were included in this retrospective study. The patients were divided into the coupler group and the hand-sewn group according to the technique of arterial anastomosis used. Patients in the coupler group underwent a special procedure including arterial bifurcation to enlarge the recipient artery diameter. Of the 123 free flap surgeries performed, 56 were done using a coupler and 67 with the standard suture technique. One flap in the coupler group failed due to simultaneous arterial and venous thromboses. One flap in the hand-sewn group was lost due to venous compromise. The overall flap survival rate was 98.4% (n=121). There was a significant decrease in anastomotic time when a coupler was used (P<0.001). The complication and flap loss rates were similar in the coupler and hand-sewn groups. The application of the coupler helped to decrease the anastomotic time and achieved satisfactory vessel patency.

Abstract
Currents play critical roles in neurons. Direct observation of current flows in cells at nanometre dimensions and picoampere current resolution is still a daunting task. In this study, we investigated the current flows in hippocampal neurons, PC12 cells and astrocytes in response to voltages applied to the cell membranes using conductive atomic force microscopy (CAFM). The spines in the hippocampal neurons play crucial roles in nerve signal transfer. When the applied voltage was greater than 7.2 V, PC12 cells even show metallic nanowire-like characteristics. Both the cell body and glial filaments of astrocytes yielded CAFM test results that reflect different electrical conductance. To our best knowledge, the electrical characteristics and current transport through components of cells (especially neurons) in response to an applied external voltage have been revealed for the first time at nanometre dimensions and picoampere current levels. We believe that such studies will pave new ways to study and model the electrical characteristics and physiological behaviours in cells and other biological samples.

Abstract
AIMS Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) can cause postweaning, multisystemic wasting syndrome in pigs, which leads to enormous losses in the swine industry worldwide. Here, a genetically engineered Lactococcus strain expressing the main protective antigen of PCV2, the Cap protein, was developed to act against PCV2 infection as an oral vaccine. METHODS AND RESULTS Expression of the Cap protein was confirmed via western blot, ELISA and fluorescence microscopy. Over 90% of the recombinant pAMJ399-Cap/MG1363 survived a simulated gastrointestinal transit. It also survived the murine intestinal tract for at least 11 days. Then, the safety and immunogenicity of pAMJ399-Cap/MG1363 in orally immunized mice was evaluated. The levels of the sIgA, IgG and cytokines (IL-4 and IFN-γ) obtained from the mice immunized with pAMJ399-Cap/MG1363 were significantly higher than those in the control groups. CONCLUSIONS pAMJ399-Cap/MG1363 can survive in the gastrointestinal transit and effectively induce mucosal, cellular and humoral immune response against PCV2 infection via oral administration. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This study demonstrates the potential of the genetically engineered Lactococcus lactis as a candidate for an oral vaccine against PCV2.

Abstract
AIMS We developed a strategy for localized delivery of the LFCA (lactoferricinlactoferrampin), which is actively synthesized in situ by Lactococcus lactis (pAMJ399-LFCA/LLMG1363), and explored the possibility of using pAMJ399-LFCA/LLMG1363 as an alternative additive diet to antibiotics. METHODS AND RESULTS The antimicrobial activities of the LFCA derived from pAMJ399-LFCA/LLMG1363 were tested in vitro. The results showed that LFCA had an inhibitory effect on Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Salmonella enteritidis. Then, the pAMJ399-LFCA/LLMG1363 was used as an additive diet for piglets. Our data demonstrated that oral administration of pAMJ399-LFCA/LLMG1363 significantly improved the average daily gain, feed-to-gain ratio, intestinal mucosal integrity and decreased the serum endotoxin and d-lactic acid levels. The mRNA expression levels of intestinal tight junction proteins (including occludin, Claudin-1 and ZO-1) were significantly upregulated by pAMJ399-LFCA/LLMG1363 administration. The serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) levels, intestinal secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) levels, IL-2, IL-10 and TGF-β levels were significantly increased by pAMJ399-LFCA/LLMG1363. Furthermore, our data revealed that oral administration of pAMJ399-LFCA/LLMG1363 significantly increased the number of general Lactobacillus, and decreased the total viable E. coli counts in the ileum and cecum contents. CONCLUSIONS We developed a novel pAMJ399-LFCA/LLMG1363 secreting LFCA, which had probiotic effects on the growth performance, intestinal morphology, intestinal barrier function and immunological indices of weaned piglets. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY pAMJ399-LFCA/LLMG1363, with probiotic effects on the health of weaned piglets, may be a promising feed additive for weaned piglets.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the value of intraoperative CT scanning in the treatment of fresh thoracolumbar burst fractures. Methods: From January 2008 to January 2015 , 161 patients with thoracolumbar fractures in Department of Orthopedics, Luohe City Central Hospital, were divided into two groups: 79 cases were treatment group which were treated with intraoperative CT scan and decompression mode was determined according to CT scan results during the period from October 2012 to January 2015. 82 patients as the observation group were treated without intraoperative CT scan and direct laminectomy were performed during the period. In the treatment group, it is no further decompression of the spinal canal when the CT showed a reduction of the fracture block into the spinal canal, if the intraoperative CT showed that the fractures still occupied the spinal dura mater according to the three-dimensional CT information, the position and the size of the fracture of the spinal canal were determined, and the unilateral laminectomy was performed corresponding to the position of the lamina and intervertebral ligamentum flavum. The operative time, bleeding volume, neurological function, height of the anterior vertebral compression and Cobb angle were compared between the two groups. Results: In the treatment group, CT scan showed 48 cases (60.8%) entered the spinal canal fracture completely or basically reset.31 cases (39.2%) still occupied the spinal canal compression spinal dura mater. There were significant differences in the operation time and bleeding volume between the two groups. The treatment group was less than the control group. There was no infection, secondary spinal cord injury, loose fixation and other complications. There was no difference in the ASIA classification before and after operation(χ(2)=0.268 vs χ(2)=1.372, P>0.05). The anterior vertebral height and COBB angle of the two groups were significantly improved compared with those before operation. There was no significant difference between the two groups in the postoperative height and COBB angle[(40.3±11.8)° vs(82.1±4.2)°, (-10.3±2.6)° vs(6.9±3.3)°, P<0.05], but after 2 years the difference was statistically significant between the two groups, to retain the rear ligament complex treatment group was significantly better than the control group. Conclusions: Patients of thoracolumbar vertebral fracture in hyperextension position combined with internal fixation can achieve good correction effect. Orthopedic postoperative CT scan and according to the results of the scan precision treatment can simplify the operation, there was no difference in clinical efficacy compared with total laminectomy, but some patients avoid the spinal canal decompression and part were treated by small fenestration laminectomy decompression, which is conducive to the protection of spinouts ligament complex integrity.

Abstract
Primary liver cancer arises from chronic liver disease, and cirrhotic liver gradually develops into dysplastic nodules that eventually form malignant tumors. In recent years, molecular biotechnology development has deepened people's understanding on the pathogenesis of liver cancer. Epigenetic modifications play a significant role in DNA methylation, non-coding RNAs, chromatin remodeling, and histone modification. This review focuses on the progress of currently implicated non-coding RNAs in the molecular pathogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma, and its potential application in improving the diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the efficacy of percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal discectomy (PTED) and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) in the treatment of high lumbar disc herniation. Methods: The clinical data of patients with high lumbar disc herniation from February 2010 to February 2015 were retrospective analyzed. According to the inclusion criteria, a total of 63 cases were enrolled, including PTED group 33 cases, TLIF group 30 cases. The improvement of the two groups before and after surgery was assessed by visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry dysfunction index (ODI). The operative time, intraoperative blood loss, drainage volume at 48 h postoperatively, hospitalization time, number of fluoroscopy, complication, recurrence rate and postoperative recovery were compared between the two groups. The follow-up period was 12 to 33 months. Results: The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, drainage amount and hospitalization time in PTED group were significantly less than those in TLIF group[(71±19) vs (121±22) min, (30±21) vs (317±50) ml, 0 vs (93±29) ml, (3.5±1.9) vs (12.5±2.1) d]. The number of fluoroscopy in PTED group was significantly higher than TLIF group[(16.2±8.3) vs (6.7±4.2)](all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in VAS score and ODI improvement rate between the two groups after operation (both P>0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the excellent rate of surgery and the recurrence rate (both P>0.05). Conclusions: PTED has the advantages of less trauma and bleeding, rapid postoperative recovery in the treatment of upper lumbar disc herniation compared with TLIF, and the curative effect and recurrence rate are similar with TLIF. Therefore, PTED is an effective method for the treatment of upper lumbar disc herniation.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the prevalence and clinical characteristics of postprandial hypotension(PPH) in patients with essential hypertension and coronary heart disease. Methods: A total of 197 patients with essential hypertension and coronary heart disease, who had been treated in the First Department of Cardiology of the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from December, 2013 to December, 2014 were included. The patients' blood pressure before breakfast, lunch and dinner and 30, 60, 90, 120 minutes after the meal were monitored. Subjects were classified into PPH group (n=37) and non-PPH group (NPPH, n=160) according to postprandial decrease in systolic blood pressure, to explore the clinical characteristics and related factors and the major adverse cardiac and cerebral vascular events of PPH. Results: Among 197 patients, 37 cases (18.8%) showed at least once postprandial decline in systolic blood pressure greater than and equal to 20 mmHg. The incidence of PPH after breakfast and dinner were higher than lunch (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of PPH among different age groups, among patients accompanied with different diseases, and among patients with different dining position (all P>0.05). According to the baseline systolic blood pressure, patients can be divided into 4 groups(<120 mmHg, 120-129 mmHg, 130-139 mmHg, >140 mmHg), the higher the level of the baseline systolic blood pressure was, the higher the incidence of PPH was. And the incidence of major adverse cardiac and cerebral vascular events in patients during hospitalization were increased by PPH. Conclusions: The prevalence of PPH in the patients with essential hypertension and coronary heart disease is 18.8%. The incidence of PPH after breakfast and dinner is higher than lunch. The baseline systolic blood pressure is considered to be the risk factor of PPH. And PPH could lead to an increase of the incidence of major adverse cardiac and cerebral vascular events.
