Abstract
Many powerful methods have been employed to elucidate the global transcriptomic, proteomic, or metabolic responses to pathogen-infected host cells. However, the host glycome responses to bacterial infection remain largely unexplored, and hence, our understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which bacterial pathogens manipulate the host glycome to favor infection remains incomplete. Here, we address this gap by performing a systematic analysis of the host glycome during infection by the bacterial pathogen Brucella spp. that cause brucellosis. We discover, surprisingly, that a Brucella effector protein (EP) Rhg1 induces global reprogramming of the host cell N-glycome by interacting with components of the oligosaccharide transferase complex that controls N-linked protein glycosylation, and Rhg1 regulates Brucella replication and tissue colonization in a mouse model of brucellosis, demonstrating that Brucella exploits the EP Rhg1 to reprogram the host N-glycome and promote bacterial intracellular parasitism, thereby providing a paradigm for bacterial control of host cell infection.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related death among women and a major source of brain metastases. Despite the increasing incidence of brain metastasis from breast cancer, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Altered glycosylation is known to play a role in various diseases including cancer metastasis. However, profiling studies of O-glycans and their isomers in breast cancer brain metastasis (BCBM) are scarce. This study analyzed the expression of O-glycans and their isomers in human breast cancer cell lines (MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-361, HTB131, and HTB22), a brain cancer cell line (CRL-1620), and a brain metastatic breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231BR) using nanoLC-MS/MS, identifying 27 O-glycan compositions. We observed significant upregulation in the expression of HexNAc1Hex1NeuAc2 and HexNAc2Hex3, whereas the expression of HexNAc1Hex1NeuAc1 was downregulated in MDA-MB-231BR compared to other cell lines. In our isomeric analysis, we observed notable alterations in the isomeric forms of the O-glycan structure HexNAc1Hex1NeuAc1 in a comparison of different cell lines. Our analysis of O-glycans and their isomers in cancer cells demonstrated that changes in their distribution can be related to the metastatic process. We believe that our investigation will contribute to an enhanced comprehension of the significance of O-glycans and their isomers in BCBM.

Abstract
Structural variations (SVs) are a feature of plant genomes that has been largely unexplored despite their significant impact on plant phenotypic traits and local adaptation to abiotic and biotic stress. In this study, we employed woolly grape (Vitis retordii), a species native to the tropical and subtropical regions of East Asia with both coastal and inland habitats, as a valuable model for examining the impact of SVs on local adaptation. We assembled a haplotype-resolved chromosomal reference genome for woolly grape, and conducted population genetic analyses based on whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data from coastal and inland populations. The demographic analyses revealed recent bottlenecks in all populations and asymmetric gene flow from the inland to the coastal population. In total, 1,035 genes associated with plant adaptive regulation for salt stress, radiation, and environmental adaptation were detected underlying local selection by SVs and SNPs in the coastal population, of which 37.29% and 65.26% were detected by SVs and SNPs, respectively. Candidate genes such as FSD2, RGA1, and AAP8 associated with salt tolerance were found to be highly differentiated and selected during the process of local adaptation to coastal habitats in SV regions. Our study highlights the importance of SVs in local adaptation; candidate genes related to salt stress and climatic adaptation to tropical and subtropical environments are important genomic resources for future breeding programs of grapevine and its rootstocks.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES To develop and validate a nomogram based on intratumoral and peritumoral radiomics signatures for pretreatment prediction of distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) in patients after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NCRT) with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study included 230 patients (161 training cohort; 69 validation cohort) with LARC who underwent NCRT and surgery. Radiomics features were extracted on T2-weighted images from gross tumor volume (GTV) and volumes of 4-mm, 6-mm, and 8-mm peritumoral regions (PTV4, PTV6, and PTV8). The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO)-Cox analysis were used for features selection and models construction. The performance of each model in predicting DMFS was evaluated by the Concordance index (C-index) and time-independent receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). RESULTS The PTV4 radiomics model demonstrated superior performance compared to the PTV6 and PTV8 radiomics models, with C-indexes of 0.750 and 0.703 in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. The nomogram was constructed by integrating the GTV radiomics signature, PTV4 radiomics signature, and relevant clinical characteristics, including CA19-9 level, clinical T stage, and clinical N stage. The nomogram achieved C-indexes of 0.831 and 0.748, with corresponding AUCs of 0.872 and 0.808 for 5-year DMFS in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that a cut-off value of 1.653 effectively stratified patients into high- and low-risk groups for DM (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION The intra-peritumoral radiomics nomogram is a favorable tool for clinicians to develop personalized systemic treatment and intensive follow-up strategies to improve patient prognosis.

Abstract
The interaction between influenza A virus (IAV) and host proteins is an important process that greatly influences viral replication and pathogenicity. PB2 protein is a subunit of viral ribonucleoprotein (vRNP) complex playing distinct roles in viral transcription and replication. BAG6 (BCL2-associated athanogene 6) as a multifunctional host protein participates in physiological and pathological processes. Here, we identify BAG6 as a new restriction factor for IAV replication through targeting PB2. For both avian and human influenza viruses, overexpression of BAG6 reduced viral protein expression and virus titers, whereas deletion of BAG6 significantly enhanced virus replication. Moreover, BAG6-knockdown mice developed more severe clinical symptoms and higher viral loads upon IAV infection. Mechanistically, BAG6 restricted IAV transcription and replication by inhibiting the activity of viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). The co-immunoprecipitation assays showed BAG6 specifically interacted with the N-terminus of PB2 and competed with PB1 for RdRp complex assembly. The ubiquitination assay indicated that BAG6 promoted PB2 ubiquitination at K189 residue and targeted PB2 for K48-linked ubiquitination degradation. The antiviral effect of BAG6 necessitated its N-terminal region containing a ubiquitin-like (UBL) domain (17-92aa) and a PB2-binding domain (124-186aa), which are synergistically responsible for viral polymerase subunit PB2 degradation and perturbing RdRp complex assembly. These findings unravel a novel antiviral mechanism via the interaction of viral PB2 and host protein BAG6 during avian or human influenza virus infection and highlight a potential application of BAG6 for antiviral drug development.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop a nomogram based on preoperative clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features for the microvascular invasion (MVI) status in solitary intrahepatic mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma (sIMCC) and to evaluate whether it could predict recurrence-free survival (RFS). METHODS We included 115 cases who experienced MRI examinations for sIMCC with R0 resection. The preoperative clinical and MRI features were extracted. Independent predictors related to MVI+ were evaluated by stepwise multivariate logistic regression, and a nomogram was constructed. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to assess the predictive ability. All patients were classified into high- and low-risk groups of MVI. Then, the correlations of the nomogram with RFS in patents with sIMCC were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS The occurrence rate of MVI+ was 38.3% (44/115). The preoperative independent predictors of MVI+ were carbohydrate antigen 19-9 > 37 U/ml, tumor size > 5 cm, and an ill-defined tumor boundary. Integrating these predictors, the nomogram exerted a favorable diagnostic performance with areas under the ROC curve of 0.767 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.654-0.881) in the development cohort, and 0.760 (95% CI 0.591-0.929) in the validation cohort. In the RFS analysis, significant differences were observed between the high- and low-risk MVI groups (6-month RFS rates: 64.5% vs. 78.8% and 46.7% vs. 82.4% in the development and validation cohorts, respectively) (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS A nomogram based on clinical and MRI features is a potential biomarker of MVI and may be a potent method to classify the risk of recurrence in patients with sIMCC.

Abstract
Background Very early distant metastasis (VEDM) for patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) following surgery suggests failure of local treatment strategy and few biomarkers are available for its effective risk stratification. This study aimed to explore the potential of quantitative dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) spectral parameters and build models to predict VEDM. Methods Consecutive patients suspected of having CRC and with a clinical indication for enhanced CT from April 2021 to July 2022 at a single institution were prospectively enrolled to undertake spectral CT scanning. The spectral features were extracted by two reviewers and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used for interobserver agreement evaluation. A total of 16 spectral parameters, including unenhanced effective atomic number, triphasic iodine concentrations (ICs)/normalized ICs (NICs)-A/V/E/1/NIC-A/V/E/spectral curve slopes (λ-A/V/E), two arterial enhancement fractions (AEFs), and venous enhancement fraction (VEF), were determined for analysis. Patients with and without VEDM after surgery were matched using propensity score matching (PSM). The diagnostic performance was assessed using the area under the curve (AUC). Models of multiple modalities were generated. Results In total, 222 patients were included (141 males, age range, 32-83 years) and 13 patients developed VEDM. Interobserver agreement ranged from good to excellent (ICC, 0.773-0.964). A total of three spectral parameters (VEF, λ-V, and 1/NIC-V) exhibited significant discriminatory ability (P<0.05) in predicting VEDM, with AUCs of 0.822 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.667-0.926], 0.738 (95% CI: 0.573-0.866), and 0.713 (95% CI: 0.546-0.846) and optimal cutoff points of 67.16%, 2.46, and 2.44, respectively. The performance of these spectral parameters was validated in the entire cohort; the combined spectral model showed comparable efficiency to the combined clinical model [AUC, 0.771 (95% CI: 0.622-0.919) vs. 0.779 (95% CI: 0.663-0.894), P>0.05]; the clinical-spectral model achieved further improved AUC of 0.887 (95% CI: 0.812-0.962), which was significantly higher than the combined clinical model (P=0.015), yet not superior to the combined spectral model (P=0.078). Conclusions Novel spectral parameters showed potential in predicting VEDM in CRC following surgery in this preliminary study, which were closely related with spectral perfusion in the venous phase. However, further studies with larger samples are warranted.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to establish a nomogram based on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features to predict the very early recurrence (VER, less than 6 months) of intrahepatic mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma (IMCC) after R0 resection. METHODS This study enrolled a group of 193 IMCC patients from our institution between March 2010 and January 2022. Patients were allocated into the development cohort (n = 137) and the validation cohort (n = 56), randomly, and the preoperative clinical and MRI features were collected. Univariate and multivariate stepwise logistic regression assessments were adopted to assess predictors of VER. Nomogram was constructed and certificated in the validation cohort. The performance of the prediction nomogram was evaluated by its discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility. The performance of the nomogram was compared with the T stage of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 8th edition staging system. RESULTS Fifty-three patients (27.5%) experienced VER of the tumor and 140 patients (72.5%) with non-VER, during the follow-up period. After multivariate stepwise logistic regression, number of lesions, diffuse hypoenhancement on arterial phase, necorsis and suspicious lymph nodes were independently associated with VER. The nomogram demonstrated significantly higher area under the curve (AUC) of 0.813 than T stage (AUC = 0.666, P = 0.006) in the development cohort, whereas in the validation cohort, the nomogram showed better discrimination performance, with an AUC of 0.808 than T stage (0.705) with no significantly difference (P = 0.230). Decision curve analysis reflected the clinical net benefit of the nomogram. CONCLUSION The nomogram based on preoperative MRI features is a reliable tool to predict VER for patients with IMCC after R0 resection. This nomogram will be helpful to improve survival prediction and individualized treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to establish two nomograms for predicting overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with solitary intrahepatic mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma (IMCC) based on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features. METHODS This retrospective study included 120 consecutive patients who were diagnosed with solitary IMCC. Preoperative MRI and clinical features were collected. Based on the univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, two nomograms were constructed to predict OS and RFS, respectively. The effective performance of the nomograms was evaluated using concordance index (C-index). The prognostic stratification systems for OS and RFS were developed and used to classify patients into high- and low-risk groups. RESULTS Suspicious lymph nodes, arterial phase (AP) enhancement patterns, and bile duct dilatation were independent predictors of OS, while suspicious lymph nodes, AP enhancement patterns, and necrosis were independent predictors of RFS. The nomograms achieved the C-index values of 0.705/0.710 for OS and 0.721/0.759 for RFS in the development/validation cohorts, which were significantly higher than those of the T and TNM stages (P < 0.05). Patients were stratified into high- and low-risk groups, the 1-year OS and RFS rates of high-risk patients were poorer than those of patients with low-risk in the development cohort (OS: 93.5% vs 76.3%, P < 0.001; RFS: 74.5% vs 22.4%, P < 0.001). Similar results were observed in the validation cohort. CONCLUSIONS Two nomograms were constructed based on preoperative MRI features in patients with solitary IMCC for predicting the OS and RFS and facilitate further prognostic stratification.

Abstract
For the study of cell biology, real-time information on cell physiological processes will be more accurate and closer to the in vivo condition in a three-dimensional (3D) culture system. Although most reported 3D cell culture scaffolds can better mimic the in vivo dynamic microenvironment, the real-time analysis technique is deficient or lacking. Herein, a stretchable and conductive 3D scaffold is developed to construct an electrochemical biosensor for real-time monitoring of cell release in 3D culture under stimulation of drug stimulant and mechanical force. In our design, the polyurethane sponge (PU) dipped with conductive carbon ink (CC/PU) was used as a conductive scaffold, and gold nanoparticles (nano-Au) were electrodeposited on the CC/PU (nano-Au CC/PU) to improve the electrochemical sensing performance. The prepared nano-Au CC/PU scaffold exhibits a good electrocatalytic ability to H2O2 with a linear range from 20 nM to 43 μM. Due to the great biocompatibility, HeLa cells can be cultured directly on the nano-Au CC/PU and the in situ and real-time tracking of H2O2 secretion from cells was achieved. The results demonstrate that both the drug stimulant and mechanical force can rapidly activate the release of reactive oxygen species. This study indicates that the stretchable 3D sensing scaffold has good potential for cell biology research in an in vivo-like microenvironment and can be extensively used in the fields of tissue engineering, drug screening, and pathological research.

Abstract
The complexity and heterogeneity of protein glycosylation present an analytical challenge to the studies of characterization and quantitation. Various LC-MS-based quantitation strategies have emerged in recent decades. Metabolic stable isotope labeling has been developed to enhance the accurate LC/MS-based quantitation between different cell lines. Stable isotope labeling by amino acids in a cell culture (SILAC) is the most widely used metabolic labeling method in proteomic analysis. However, it can only label the peptide backbone and is thus limited in glycomic studies. Here, we present a metabolic isotope labeling strategy, named GlyProSILC (Glycan Protein Stable Isotope Labeling in Cell Culture), that can label both the glycan motif and peptide backbone from the same batch of cells. It was performed by feeding cells with a heavy medium containing amide-15N-glutamine, 13C6-arginine (Arg6), and 13C6-15N2-lysine (Lys8). No significant change of cell line metabolism after GlyProSILC labeling was observed based on transcriptomic, glycomic, and proteomic data. The labeling conditions, labeling efficiency, and quantitation accuracy were investigated. After quantitation correction, we simultaneously quantified 62 N-glycans, 574 proteins, and 344 glycopeptides using the same batch of mixed 231BR/231 cell lines. So far, GlyProSILC provides an accurate and effective quantitation approach for glycomics, proteomics, and glycoproteomics in a cell culture system.

Abstract
Objective The emerging epidemic of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing E. coli (ESBL-EC) is a global public health crisis. ESBL-EC infections are increasing worldwide and contribute to morbidity and mortality among newborn infants. However, the antimicrobial resistance characteristics and clonal transmission of maternal and neonatal ESBL-EC isolates need to be further deciphered. Materials and Methods We performed phenotypic and genotypic characterization of 33 ESBL-EC isolates from pregnant women and newborn during 2019-2020. Results Minimum inhibitory concentrations of 17 antimicrobial agents showed that all isolates were multidrug-resistant (MDR) and had a resistance rate of 100% to ampicillin, and mild resistance to florfenicol, gentamicin, ceftazidime, and amoxicillin-clavulanate. Additionally, imipenem, meropenem, polymyxin, and tigecycline exhibited good activity against the tested ESBL-EC isolates with low MIC50 (0.06-1 μg/mL) and MIC90 (0.06-1 μg/mL). Whole genome sequencing indicated that ESBL-EC isolates contained diverse antimicrobial resistant genes (blaCTX-M, blaTEM, blaSHV, tetA, etc.) and toxin genes (ompA, csg, fimH, hybtA, etc.). blaCTX-M genes were the main ESBL genotype. ST1193 (18.2%) was the second most abundant ST among the ESBL-EC isolates (ST131 was the most common, with 30.3%), and this is the first report of its mother-to-infant colonization transmission in China. Conclusion These findings revealed the occurrence of high-risk ST1193 clone among ESBL-EC isolates from pregnant women and newborn colonization in China. Further national or regional multicenter studies are needed to assess the dissemination and evolution of ESBL-EC ST1193 clone as a nosocomial pathogen in China.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological, immunophenotypic, and genetic features of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST). Methods: Twenty-three cases of MPNST were diagnosed at the Jiangsu Province Hospital (the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University), China, between January 2012 and December 2022 and thus included in the study. EnVision immunostaining and next-generation sequencing (NGS) were used to examine their immunophenotypical characteristics and genomic aberrations, respectively. Results: There were 10 males and 13 females, with an age range of 11 to 79 years (median 36 years), including 14 cases of neurofibromatosis type I-associated MPNST and 9 cases of sporadic MPNST. The tumors were located in extremities (7 cases), trunk (4 cases), neck and shoulder (3 cases), chest cavity (3 cases), paraspinal area (2 cases), abdominal cavity (2 cases), retroperitoneum (1 case), and pelvic cavity (1 case). Morphologically, the tumors were composed of dense spindle cells arranged in fascicles. Periphery neurofibroma-like pattern was found in 73.9% (17/23) of the cases. Under low magnification, alternating hypercellular and hypocellular areas resembled marbled appearance. Under high power, the tumor cell nuclei were irregular, presenting with oval, conical, comma-like, bullet-like or wavy contour. In 7 cases, the tumor cells demonstrated marked cytological pleomorphism and rare giant tumor cells. The mitotic figures were commonly not less than 3/10 HPF, and geographic necrosis was often noted. Immunohistochemically, tumor cells were positive for S-100 (14/23, 60.9%) and SOX10 (11/23, 47.8%). The loss of the CD34-positive fibroblastic network encountered in neurofibromas was observed in 14/17 of the MPNST cases. The loss of H3K27me3 expression was observed in 82.6% (19/23) of the cases. Moreover, SDHA and SDHB losses were presented in one case. NGS revealed that NF1 gene loss of function (germline or somatic) were found in all 5 cases tested. Furthermore, four cases accompanied with somatic mutations of SUZ12 gene and half of them had somatic mutations of TP53 gene, while one case with germline mutation in SDHA gene and somatic mutations in FAT1, BRAF, and KRAS genes. Available clinical follow-up was obtained in 19 cases and ranged from 1 to 67 months. Four patients died of the disease, all of whom had the clinical history of neurofibromatosis type Ⅰ. Conclusions: MPNST is difficult to be differentiated from a variety of spindle cell tumors due to its wide spectrum of histological morphology and complex genetic changes. H3K27me3 is a useful diagnostic marker, while the loss of CD34 positive fibroblastic network can also be a diagnostic feature of MPNST. NF1 gene inactivation mutations and complete loss of PRC2 activity are the common molecular diagnostic features, but other less commonly recurred genomic aberrations might also contribute to the MPNST pathogenesis.

Abstract
Objective Radiomics based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) shows potential for prediction of therapeutic effect to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) in locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC); however, thorough comparison between radiomics and traditional models is deficient. We aimed to construct multiple-time-scale (pretreatment, posttreatment, and combined) radiomic models to predict pathological complete response (pCR) and compare their utility to those of traditional clinical models. Methods In this research, 165 LARC patients undergoing nCRT followed by surgery were enrolled retrospectively, which were divided into training and testing sets in the ratio of 7:3. Morphological features on pre- and posttreatment MRI, coupled with clinical data, were evaluated by univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis for constructing clinical models. Radiomic parameters were derived from pre- and posttreatment T2- and diffusion-weighted images to develop the radiomic signatures. The clinical-radiomics models were then generated. All the models were developed in the training set and then tested in the testing set, the performance of which was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Radiomic models were compared with the clinical models with the DeLong test. Results One hundred and sixty-five patients (median age, 55 years; age interquartile range, 47-62 years; 116 males) were enrolled in the study. The pretreatment maximum tumor length, posttreatment maximum tumor length, and magnetic resonance tumor regression grade were selected as independent predictors for pCR in the clinical models. In the testing set, the pre- and posttreatment and combined clinical models generated AUCs of 0.625, 0.842, and 0.842 for predicting pCR, respectively. The MRI-based radiomic models performed reasonably well in predicting pCR, but neither the pure radiomic signatures (AUCs, 0.734, 0.817, and 0.801 for the pre- and posttreatment and combined radiomic signatures, respectively) nor the clinical-radiomics models (AUCs, 0.734, 0.860, and 0.801 for the pre- and posttreatment and combined clinical-radiomics models, respectively) showed significant added value compared with the clinical models (all P > 0.05). Conclusion The MRI-based radiomic models exhibited no definite added value compared with the clinical models for predicting pCR in LARC. Radiomic models can serve as ancillary tools for tailoring adequate treatment strategies.

Abstract
Objectives: To explore obesity prevalence and its association with dietary patterns among Tibetan pastoralists during the urbanization transition in Qinghai Province. Methods: Using an open cohort study design, 1 003 subjects were enrolled at baseline in 2018, 599 were followed up, and 1 012 were newly recruited in 2022. A total of 1 913 adults over 18 years were included in the study, and a questionnaire survey and health examination were conducted. Factor analysis was used to identify dietary patterns, and a mixed-effects model was used to analyze the association between dietary patterns and obesity. Results: From 2018 to 2022, the prevalence rates of overweight, obesity, and central obesity were 27.6%, 33.8%, and 54.6%, respectively. Age-sex-standardized prevalence of obesity and central obesity increased. Three dietary patterns were identified: the modern pattern was characterized by frequent consumption of pork, poultry, processed meat, fresh fruits, sugary drinks, salty snacks, etcetera; the urban pattern was characterized by frequent consumption of refined carbohydrates, beef and mutton, vegetables and eggs, etcetera; and pastoral pattern featured frequent consumption of tsamba, Tibetan cheese, buttered/milk tea, and whole-fat dairy products. After adjusting for demographic characteristics, socioeconomic status, and lifestyle factors, compared with the T1, subjects in the T3 of urban pattern scores were more likely to be overweight (OR=2.09, 95%CI: 1.10-3.95) and overweight/obese (OR=1.23, 95%CI: 1.00-1.51), whereas those in the T3 of pastoral pattern scores had a lower risk of overweight (OR=0.45, 95%CI: 0.24-0.84), obesity (OR=0.81, 95%CI: 0.69-0.95), overweight/obesity (OR=0.75, 95%CI: 0.61-0.91) and central obesity (OR=0.58, 95%CI: 0.38-0.89). Conclusions: Prevalence of obesity and central obesity was high among Tibetan pastoralists during the urbanization transition. Urban dietary pattern was a risk factor for overweight and overweight/obesity, whereas pastoral dietary pattern was a protective factor for overweight, obesity, overweight/obesity, and central obesity. Tailored interventions are needed to improve local people's health.

Abstract
Highly sensitive and specific detection and monitoring of trace norepinephrine (NE) in biological fluids and neuronal cell lines is essential for the investigation of pathogenesis of certain neurological diseases. Herein, we constructed a novel electrochemical sensor for real-time monitoring of NE released by PC12 cells based on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with honeycomb-like nickel oxide (NiO)-reduced graphene oxide (RGO) nanocomposite. The synthesized NiO, RGO and the NiO-RGO nanocomposite were characterized using X-ray diffraction spectrogram (XRD), Raman spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The porous three-dimensional honeycomb-like structure of NiO and high charge transfer kinetics of RGO endowed the nanocomposite with excellent electrocatalytic activity, large surface area and good conductivity. The developed sensor exhibited superior sensitivity and specificity towards NE in a wide linear range from 20 nM to 14 μM and 14 μM-80 μM, with a low detection limit of 5 nM. The performances of the sensor in terms of excellent biocompatibility and high sensitivity allow it to be successfully employed in the tracking of NE release from PC12 cells under the stimulation of K+, providing an effective strategy for the real-time monitoring of cellular NE.

Abstract
We present measurements of the cross section and double-helicity asymmetry A_{LL} of direct-photon production in p[over →]+p[over →] collisions at sqrt[s]=510 GeV. The measurements have been performed at midrapidity (|η|<0.25) with the PHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. At relativistic energies, direct photons are dominantly produced from the initial quark-gluon hard scattering and do not interact via the strong force at leading order. Therefore, at sqrt[s]=510 GeV, where leading-order-effects dominate, these measurements provide clean and direct access to the gluon helicity in the polarized proton in the gluon-momentum-fraction range 0.02<x<0.08, with direct sensitivity to the sign of the gluon contribution.

Abstract
Solid-state lithium batteries with solid polymer electrolytes have recently attracted extensive attention due to their promising potential in high energy density and safety. However, the principal issues plaguing the solid polymer electrolytes are their restricted ionic conductivities at ambient temperature and the limited tolerance to the widely used high-voltage cathodes (such as LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2, NCM811), thus limiting their practical applications seriously. In this regard, a superior polymer-in-salt solid electrolyte from poly(caprolactone)-graft-polyrotaxane (PGPE) is developed for high-voltage lithium batteries operated at room temperature. The PGPE displays remarkable electrochemical properties at room temperature, with an exceptional ionic conductivity of 4.89 × 10-4 S cm-1 and a lithium-ion transference number of approximately 0.64, stemming from the rapid segmental motions of PCL sidechains by the enhanced dynamics of the cyclic molecules along the axial polymer chain of polyrotaxane. More importantly, the PGPE demonstrates a high electrochemical oxidation voltage of ∼4.7 V, suggesting the excellent electrochemical stability of PGPE against the NCM811-based cathode. Owing to the dense LiF-rich CEI self-generated on the NCM811 particles in the cathode, the transition metal ion diffusion is successfully constrained and the PGPE is well protected from continuous decomposition. The PGPE also shows superior interfacial stability between the metallic Li and the electrolyte. As a result, the all-solid-state NCM811|PGPE|Li cell exhibits superior discharge capacity (196 mAh g-1) and extraordinary long-term cycling stability (74% capacity retention at 150 cycles) at 30 °C.

Abstract
The North of Jiangsu was a traditional area for leprosy in Chinese history. In the period of the Republic of China, one of the largest leprosy clinics in China was established in Ru Gao (Jugao) with the help of Chinese and foreign charitable organizations, the Chinese central government and some squires. It was the only large clinic for leprosy in the North of Jiangsu. It was officially opened in 1924, attached to the Presbyterian Church hospital, and was closed in 1927 after the breakout of the civil war. It reopened in May 1933, hosted by a leprologist, Lee S. Huizenga. Ru Gao (Jugao) leprosy clinic treated around 1,000 lepers in the North of Jiangsu with medicines and language communication. The establishment of the leprosy clinic made a historical contribution in terms of preventing leprosy from spreading to Shanghai. It closed in the spring of 1938 because of the invasion of the Japanese military.

Abstract
BACKGROUND After a stroke, survivors are often left with significant disabilities and are at a greater risk of recurrent strokes. It is vital stroke survivors receive effective treatments to assist with rehabilitation and reduce risk factors for secondary stroke. Observational and preclinical studies have highlighted the promising role of polyphenols in these regards. METHODS A systematic review of original research which assessed the role of polyphenols on health outcomes in post stroke adults was conducted. PROQUEST, SCOPUS (Elsevier), MEDLINE (EBSCO), Embase and Cochrane Library databases were searched up to the 29th of October 2021. RESULTS A total of 9 studies met the full inclusion criteria and were included in this review. Several classes of polyphenols were assessed including hydroxybenzoic acids, stilbenes and flavonoids. Numerous health outcomes were assessed including vascular function, stroke disability, blood pressure, blood glucose and c-reactive protein. The majority of the studies included in this review (n = 8) note improvements in the polyphenol groups for at least one outcome measure. However, small sample sizes, short trial length and reporting bias prevent firm conclusions from being drawn. CONCLUSION This review provides promising preliminary evidence that polyphenols may be beneficial for post stroke adults, however, more research is required. To ensure reliable methodology and replication of results, future studies should include outcome statistics and effect sizes. Trials with a longer duration and large sample size should also be considered.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate whether a deep learning (DL) model based on preoperative MR images of primary tumors can predict lymph node metastasis (LNM) in patients with stage T1-2 rectal cancer. METHODS In this retrospective study, patients with stage T1-2 rectal cancer who underwent preoperative MRI between October 2013 and March 2021 were included and assigned to the training, validation, and test sets. Four two-dimensional and three-dimensional (3D) residual networks (ResNet18, ResNet50, ResNet101, and ResNet152) were trained and tested on T2-weighted images to identify patients with LNM. Three radiologists independently assessed LN status on MRI, and diagnostic outcomes were compared with the DL model. Predictive performance was assessed with AUC and compared using the Delong method. RESULTS In total, 611 patients were evaluated (444 training, 81 validation, and 86 test). The AUCs of the eight DL models ranged from 0.80 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.75, 0.85) to 0.89 (95% CI: 0.85, 0.92) in the training set and from 0.77 (95% CI: 0.62, 0.92) to 0.89 (95% CI: 0.76, 1.00) in the validation set. The ResNet101 model based on 3D network architecture achieved the best performance in predicting LNM in the test set, with an AUC of 0.79 (95% CI: 0.70, 0.89) that was significantly greater than that of the pooled readers (AUC, 0.54 [95% CI: 0.48, 0.60]; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION The DL model based on preoperative MR images of primary tumors outperformed radiologists in predicting LNM in patients with stage T1-2 rectal cancer. KEY POINTS • Deep learning (DL) models with different network frameworks showed different diagnostic performance for predicting lymph node metastasis (LNM) in patients with stage T1-2 rectal cancer. • The ResNet101 model based on 3D network architecture achieved the best performance in predicting LNM in the test set. • The DL model based on preoperative MR images outperformed radiologists in predicting LNM in patients with stage T1-2 rectal cancer.

PURPOSE The aim of this retrospective study was to develop and validate a preoperative nomogram for predicting microvascular invasion (MVI) in patients with intrahepatic mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma (IMCC) based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). METHODS In this retrospective study, 224 consecutive patients with clinicopathologically confirmed IMCC were enrolled. Patients whose data were collected from February 2010 to December 2020 were randomly divided into the training (131 patients) and internal validation (51 patients) datasets. The data from January 2021 to November 2021 (42 patients) were allocated to the time-independent validation dataset. Univariate and multivariate forward logistic regression analyses were used to identify preoperative MRI features that were significantly related to MVI, which were then used to develop the nomogram. We used the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and calibration curve to evaluate the performance of the nomogram. RESULTS Interobserver agreement of MRI qualitative features was good to excellent, with κ values of 0.613-0.882. Multivariate analyses indicated that the following variables were independent predictors of MVI: multiple tumours (odds ratio [OR]) = 4.819, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.562-14.864, P = 0.006), ill-defined margin (OR = 6.922, 95% CI 2.883-16.633, P < 0.001), and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) > 37 U/ml (OR = 2.890, 95% CI 1.211-6.897, P = 0.017). A nomogram incorporating these factors was established using well-fitted calibration curves. The nomogram showed good diagnostic efficacy for MVI, with AUC values of 0.838, 0.819, and 0.874 for the training, internal validation, and time-independent validation datasets, respectively. CONCLUSION A nomogram constructed using independent factors, namely the presence of multiple tumours, ill-defined margins, and CA 19-9 > 37 U/ml could predict the presence of MVI. This can facilitate personalised therapeutic strategy and clinical management in patients with IMCC.

Abstract
Glycosylation is one of the most significant and abundant posttranslational modifications in mammalian cells. It mediates a wide range of biofunctions, including cell adhesion, cell communication, immune cell trafficking, and protein stability. Also, aberrant glycosylation has been associated with various diseases such as diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, inflammation, immune deficiencies, congenital disorders, and cancers. The alterations in the distributions of glycan and glycopeptide isomers are involved in the development and progression of several human diseases. However, the microheterogeneity of glycosylation brings a great challenge to glycomic and glycoproteomic analysis, including the characterization of isomers. Over several decades, different methods and approaches have been developed to facilitate the characterization of glycan and glycopeptide isomers. Mass spectrometry (MS) has been a powerful tool utilized for glycomic and glycoproteomic isomeric analysis due to its high sensitivity and rich structural information using different fragmentation techniques. However, a comprehensive characterization of glycan and glycopeptide isomers remains a challenge when utilizing MS alone. Therefore, various separation methods, including liquid chromatography, capillary electrophoresis, and ion mobility, were developed to resolve glycan and glycopeptide isomers before MS. These separation techniques were coupled to MS for a better identification and quantitation of glycan and glycopeptide isomers. Additionally, bioinformatic tools are essential for the automated processing of glycan and glycopeptide isomeric data to facilitate isomeric studies in biological cohorts. Here in this review, we discuss commonly employed MS-based techniques, separation hyphenated MS methods, and software, facilitating the separation, identification, and quantitation of glycan and glycopeptide isomers.

Abstract
PURPOSE Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is defined by a reduced renal function, that is, glomerular filtration rate, and the extent of kidney damage is assessed by determining serum creatinine levels and proteins in urine, diagnosed as proteinuria/albuminuria. Albuminuria increases with age and can result from glomerular and/or proximal tubule (PT) alterations. Brush border membranes (BBMs) on PT cells are important in maintaining the stability of PT functions. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN An LC-MS/MS bottom-up proteomics analysis of BBMs from four groups of rat models was applied to investigate protein abundance alterations associated with CKD progression. Moreover, systems biology analyses were used to identify key proteins that can provide insight into the different regulated molecular pathways and processes associated with CKD. RESULTS Our results indicated that 303 proteins showed significantly altered expressions from the severe CKD BBM group when compared to the control. Focusing on renal diseases, several proteins including Ctnnb1, Fah, and Icam1 were annotated to kidney damage and urination disorder. The up-regulation of Ctnnb1 (β-catenin) could contribute to CKD through the regulation of the WNT signaling pathway. CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Overall, the study of protein abundance changes in BBMs from rat models helps to reveal protein corrections with important pathways and regulator effects involved in CKD. Although this study is focused on rat models, the results provided more information for a deeper insight into possible CKD mechanisms in humans.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), as the third gas transporter in biological systems, plays a key role in the regulation of biological cells. Real-time detection of local H2S concentration in vivo is an important and challenging task. Herein, we explored a novel and facile strategy to develop a flexible and transparent H2S sensor based on gold nanowire (AuNW) and carbon nanotube (CNT) films embedded in poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) (AuNWs/CNTs/PDMS). Taking the advantage of the sandwich-like nanostructured network of AuNWs/CNTs, the prepared electrochemical sensing platform exhibited desirable electrocatalytic activity toward H2S oxidation with a wide linear range (5 nM to 24.9 μM) and a low dete ction limit (3 nM). Furthermore, thanks to the good biocompatibility and flexibility of the sensor, HeLa cells can be cultured directly on the electrode, allowing real-time monitoring of H2S released from cells under a stretched state. This work provides a versatile strategy for the construction of stretchable electrochemical sensors, which has potential applications in the study of H2S-related signal mechanotransduction and pathological processes.

Abstract
Automation and efficiency requirements of environmental monitoring are the pursuit of spontaneous sampling and ultrasensitivity for current sensory systems or detection apparatuses. In this work, inspired by cactus hierarchical structures, we develop a cactus-inspired photonic crystal chip to integrate spontaneous droplet sampling and fluorescence enhancement for sensitive multi-analyte detection. A conical hydrophilic pattern on hydrophobic surfaces can give rise to unidirectional Laplace pressure, which drives droplet transport to the assigned photonic crystal site. The nanostructure of photonic crystals has bigger capillarity to drive the droplet wetting uniformly into the photonic crystal matrix while performing prominent fluorescence enhancement by their photonic bandgap. A low to attomolar (2.24 × 10-19 M) fluorescence limit of detection (LOD) sensitivity can be achieved by the synergy of spontaneous droplet sampling and fluorescence enhancement. Focused on eutrophic water problems and algae pollution monitoring, a femtomolar (1.83 × 10-15 M) LOD and identification of various microcystins in urban environmental water can be achieved. The suitable integration of the unidirectional droplet transport by Laplace pressure and fluorescence enhancement by photonic crystals can achieve the spontaneous sampling and signal enhancement for ultratrace detections and sample survey of environmental monitoring and disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Duodenocolic fistula is a rare upper gastrointestinal fistula that can be benign or malignant. However, benign duodenocolic fistulas are particularly rare. Duodenocolic fistulas are often a complication of advanced colon cancer. The most common cause of benign fistulas is perforation of the duodenal ulcer. We report a case of a benign duodenocolic fistula in a patient who presented with abdominal pain, diarrhea, and weight loss. Gastroscopy and an upper gastrointestinal study confirmed the presence of the fistula. Surgery was performed, and the pathological examination demonstrated that the fistula originated from a duodenal ulcer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study examined the longitudinal relationship between mobility device use, falls and fear of falling (FOF) among community-dwelling older adults by frailty status over a one-year follow-up. DESIGN A longitudinal cohort study. SETTING Communities in the United States. PARTICIPANTS Community-dwelling older adults from the National Health and Aging Trends Study, a nationally representative survey of Medicare Beneficiaries in the United States (N=5,896). MEASUREMENTS Based on yes or no response to the corresponding items for the variables, fall-related outcomes were determined separately including falls and FOF. Falls were assessed by asking participants whether they had a fall and if they had fallen down more than one time. FOF was measured by asking participants whether they worried about falling and if this worry ever limited activities. Mobility device use was determined by asking whether participants used any type of mobility devices and the number of devices used, including cane, walker, wheelchair and scooter. Frailty was assessed using the frailty phenotype. Multinomial logistic regression models were conducted to examine the association between mobility device use and fall-related outcomes among older adults by frailty status. RESULTS At Year 1, 28.6% of participants reported using mobility devices. Among robust participants, using one mobility device had 3.58 times higher risks of FOF with fear-related activity restriction (FAR) than non-device users (95% CI: 1.10-11.65). Cane-only robust users had 5.94 and 2.18 times higher risks of FOF with and without FAR (95% CI: 1.80-19.57; 95% CI: 1.12-4.22) than non-device users. Among pre-frail participants, using one mobility device was associated with recurrent falls and FOF with FAR (RRR=2.02, 95% CI: 1.30-3.14; RRR=2.13, 95% CI: 1.25-3.63). Using ≥2 devices was associated with one fall (RRR=2.08, 95% CI: 1.30-3.33), recurrent falls (RRR=2.92, 95% CI: 1.62-5.25) and FOF with FAR (RRR=2.84, 95% CI: 1.34-6.02). Pre-frail cane-only users were more likely to have one fall (RRR=1.57, 95% CI: 1.06-2.32), recurrent falls (RRR=2.36, 95% CI: 1.48-3.77) and FOF with FAR (RRR=2.08, 95% CI: 1.12-3.87) than non-device users. The number of mobility device used and the use of canes failed to be significantly associated with fall-related outcomes among frail participants. CONCLUSION The number of mobility devices used and the only use of canes were associated with fall-related outcomes among robust and pre-frail individuals. Further research is needed to develop targeted strategies for preventing falls and FOF among older adults with mobility device use, particularly for those in the early stages of frailty.

Abstract
Neurological diseases affect millions of peopleochemistryorldwide and are continuously increasing due to the globe's aging population. Such diseases affect the nervous system and are characterized by a progressive decline in brain function and progressive cognitive impairment, decreasing the quality of life for those with the disease as well as for their families and loved ones. The increased burden of nervous system diseases demands a deeper insight into the biomolecular mechanisms at work during disease development in order to improve clinical diagnosis and drug design. Recently, evidence has related glycosylation to nervous system diseases. Glycosylation is a vital post-translational modification that mediates many biological functions, and aberrant glycosylation has been associated with a variety of diseases. Thus, the investigation of glycosylation in neurological diseases could provide novel biomarkers and information for disease pathology. During the last decades, many techniques have been developed for facilitation of reliable and efficient glycomic analysis. Among these, mass spectrometry (MS) is considered the most powerful tool for glycan analysis due to its high resolution, high sensitivity, and the ability to acquire adequate structural information for glycan identification. Along with MS, a variety of approaches and strategies are employed to enhance the MS-based identification and quantitation of glycans in neurological samples. Here, we review the advanced glycomic tools used in nervous system disease studies, including separation techniques prior to MS, fragmentation techniques in MS, and corresponding strategies. The glycan markers in common clinical nervous system diseases discovered by utilizing such MS-based glycomic tools are also summarized and discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is limited evidence about the influence of human milk feeding on short-term outcomes in a large preterm infant population. RESEARCH AIMS To explore the influences of human milk feeding on the primary outcome of necrotizing enterocolitis and secondarily sepsis, bronchial pulmonary dysplasia, severe retinopathy of prematurity, death, and the time to achieve full enteral feeding at discharge in very/extremely low-birth-weight infants. METHODS This study was a retrospective, longitudinal, observational two-group comparison cohort study. A total of 4470 very/extremely low-birth-weight infants from 25 neonatal intensive care units in China, between April 2015 and May 2018, were enrolled in this study. Exclusive human milk-fed and formula-fed participants were matched using propensity scores. After matching, human milk-fed participants (n = 1379) and formula-fed participants (n = 1378) were included in the analyses. The likelihood of necrotizing enterocolitis, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, sepsis, severe retinopathy of prematurity, death, and the time to achieve full enteral feeding were compared between the two groups. RESULTS Exclusive human milk feeding was associated with lower odds of necrotizing enterocolitis (2.90% vs. 8.42%, OR 0.33, 95% CI [0.22, 0.47]), bronchopulmonary dysplasia (15.74% vs. 20.26%, OR 0.69, 95% CI [0.56, 0.86]), severe retinopathy of prematurity (1.45% vs. 2.39%, OR 0.50, 95% CI [0.27, 0.93]), and death (6.02% vs. 10.38%, OR 0.44, 95% CI [0.32, 0.61]) compared with formula feeding. No significant differences in the time to achieve full enteral feeding or the odds of sepsis were found between the two groups. CONCLUSION Exclusive human milk feeding is associated with a reduction in necrotizing enterocolitis, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, severe retinopathy of prematurity, and mortality among very/extremely low-birth-weight infants.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the second type of cancer with a high probability of brain metastasis and has always been one of the main problems of breast cancer research due to the lack of effective treatment methods. Demand for developing an effective drug against breast cancer brain metastasis and finding molecular mechanisms that play a role in effective treatment are gradually increasing. However, there is no effective anticancer therapeutic drug or treatment method specific to breast cancer, in particular, for patients with a high risk of brain metastases. It is known that mTOR and HDAC enzymes play essential roles in the development of breast cancer brain metastasis. Therefore, it is vital to develop some new drugs and conduct studies toward the inhibition of these enzymes that might be a possible solution to treat breast cancer brain metastasis. In this study, a series of 1,10-phenanthroline and Prodigiosin derivatives consisting of their copper(I) complexes have been synthesized and characterized. Their biological activities were tested in vitro on six different cell lines (including the normal cell line). To obtain additional parallel validations of the experimental data, some in silico modeling studies were carried out with mTOR and HDAC1 enzymes, which are very crucial drug targets, to discover novel and potent drugs for breast cancer and related brain metastases disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the utility of histogram analysis of zoomed EPI diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) for predicting the perineural invasion (PNI) status of rectal cancer (RC). METHODS This prospective study evaluated 94 patients diagnosed with histopathologically confirmed RC between July 2020 and July 2021. Patients underwent preoperative rectal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations, including the zoomed EPI DWI sequence. Ten whole-tumor histogram parameters of each patient were derived from zoomed EPI DWI. Reproducibility was evaluated according to the intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC). The association of the clinico-radiological and histogram features with PNI status was assessed using univariable analysis for trend and multivariable logistic regression analysis with β value calculation. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was conducted to assess the diagnostic performance. RESULTS Forty-two patients exhibited positive PNI. The inter- and intraobserver agreements were excellent for the histogram parameters (all ICCs > 0.80). The maximum (p = 0.001), energy (p = 0.021), entropy (p = 0.021), kurtosis (p < 0.001), and skewness (p < 0.001) were significantly higher in the positive PNI group than in the negative PNI group. Multivariable analysis showed that higher MRI T stage [β = 2.154, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.932-3.688; p = 0.002] and skewness (β = 0.779, 95% CI 0.255-1.382; p = 0.006) were associated with positive PNI. The model combining skewness and MRI T stage had an area under the ROC curve of 0.811 (95% CI 0.724-0.899) for predicting PNI status. CONCLUSION Histogram parameters in zoomed EPI DWI can help predict the PNI status in RC.

Abstract
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) accounts for more than one-half of total heart failure cases, with a high prevalence and poor prognosis, especially in older and female patients. Patients with HFpEF are characterized by hypertension, left ventricular hypertrophy, and diastolic dysfunction, and the main symptoms are dyspnea and exercise intolerance. HFpEF is currently poorly studied, and pharmacological treatment for HFpEF is still underexplored. Accumulating clinical trials have shown that exercise could exert benefits on diastolic dysfunction and quality of life in patients with HFpEF. However, there is a high limitation for applying exercise therapy due to exercise intolerance in patients with HFpEF. Key effectors of exercise-protection could be novel therapeutic targets for developing drugs to prevent and treat HFpEF. In this review article, we provide an overview of the pathogenic factors, diagnostic methods, research animal models, the mechanisms of exercise-mediated cardiac protection, and current treatments for HFpEF.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fourth most common cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide and 80%-90% of HCC develops in patients that have underlying cirrhosis. Better methods of surveillance are needed to increase early detection of HCC and the proportion of patients that can be offered curative therapies. Recent work in novel mass spec-based methods for glycomic and glycopeptide analysis for discovery and confirmation of markers for early detection of HCC versus cirrhosis is reviewed in this chapter. Results from recent work in these fields by several groups and the progress made in developing markers of early HCC which can outperform the current serum-based markers are described and discussed. Also, recent developments in isoform analysis of glycans and glycopeptides and in various mass spec fragmentation methods will be described and discussed.

Abstract
Glycosylation is a post-translational modification involved in many important biological functions. The aberrant alteration of glycan structure is implicit with malfunction of cells and possess potential significance in medical diagnosis of complex diseases such as cancer. Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) has been commonly applied to the analysis of complex glycomic samples. However, the characterization of isomeric glycans from their MS/MS spectra in complex biological samples remains challenging. In this paper, we present a novel reciprocal best-hit glycan-spectrum matching (RB-GSM) approach toward characterizing N-glycans. In this method, the MS/MS spectra in the input data set are evaluated against all glycans with the matched precursor mass using customized scoring functions, where a glycan-spectrum matching (GSM) is considered to be true if it is a reciprocal best-hit, that is, it receives the highest score among not only the GSMs between the respective spectrum and all matched glycans, but also the GSMs between the respective glycan and all matched MS/MS spectra in the input data set. We evaluated this RB-GSM approach on N-glycan identification using MS/MS spectra acquired from glycan standards as well as those released from the model glycoprotein fetuin, immunoglobulin G, and human serum samples, which showed the RB-GSM is capable of distinguishing isomeric glycans.

Abstract
Chlorinated disinfection byproducts in water posed potential health threat to humans. Nowadays, chlorinated derivatives of diazepam were ubiquitously detected in drinking water. Among these derivatives, 2-methylamino-5-chlorobenzophenone (MACB) was capable of penetrating the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and induced microglial phagocytosis of neurons in zebrafish. However, little is known about the MACB metabolism in vivo. Here, we determined the metabolism of MACB in zebrafish and microglia cell model. We found that MACB mainly disrupted the metabolism of branched-chain amino acids (Leu, Ile and Val) in zebrafish model and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) pathway-related amino acids in microglia model. Additionally, we demonstrated that MACB can be metabolized by the mixed-function oxidase CYP1A2 enzyme which could be inhibited by estrogen causing the gender-difference in the accumulation of MACB in vivo. These results indicated that MACB perturbed metabolism and induced neurological disorders, particularly in the female zebrafish.

Abstract
Introduction Pregnancy is a time of profound physical and emotional change as well as an increased risk of mental health problems. Providing social support is vital to reduce such risk. Objectives This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed at examining the relationship between social support and depression, anxiety and self-harm during pregnancy. Methods We searched observational studies from PubMed, Psych Info, MIDIRS, SCOPUS, and CINAHL databases. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale tool was used for quality appraisal. The Q and the I² statistics were used to evaluate heterogeneity. A random-effects model was used to pool estimates. Publication bias was assessed using a funnel plot and Egger’s regression test and adjusted using trim and Fill analysis. All the analysis was conducted using STATA. Results Sixty-seven studies with 64,449 pregnant women were part of the current review. Of the total 67 studies, 22 and 45 studies were included in the narrative analysis and meta-analysis, respectively. From the studies included in the narrative analysis, 20(91%) of them reported a significant association between social support and the risk of mental health problems (i.e. depression, anxiety, and self-harm). After adjusting for publication bias, the results of the random-effect model revealed low social support was significantly associated with antenatal depression (AOR: 1.18, 95% CI: 1.01, 1.41) and antenatal anxiety (AOR: 1.97, 95% CI: 1.34, 2.92). Conclusions Low social support was significantly associated with depression, anxiety, and self-harm during pregnancy. Policy-makers and those working on maternity care should consider the development of targeted social support programs to help reduce mental health problems amongst pregnant women.

Abstract
Introduction
Antenatal depression and antenatal anxiety adversely affect several obstetric and foetal outcomes, and increase the rate of postnatal mental illness. Thus, to tackle these challenges the need for social support during pregnancy is vital.
Objectives
This study examined the association between domains of social support and antenatal depressive and anxiety symptoms among Australian women.
Methods
Our study used data obtained from the 1973–78 cohort of the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women’s Health (ALSWH), focusing upon women who reported being pregnant (n=493). Depression and anxiety were assessed using the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression (CES-D-10) scale, and the 9-item Goldberg Anxiety and Depression scale (GADS) respectively. The 19 item-Medical Outcomes Study Social Support index (MOSS) was used to assess social support. A binary logistic regression model was used to examine the associations between domains of social support and antenatal depressive and anxiety symptoms.
Results
After adjusting for potential confounders, our study found that the odds of antenatal depressive symptoms was about four and threefold higher among pregnant women who reported low emotional/informational support (AOR=4.75; 95% CI: 1.45, 15.66; p=0.010) and low social support (overall support) (AOR: 3.26, 95%CI: 1.05, 10.10, p=0.040) respectively compared with their counterpart. In addition, the odds of antenatal anxiety symptoms was seven times higher among pregnant women who reported low affectionate support/positive social interaction (AOR=7.43; 95%CI: 1.75, 31.55; p=0.006).
Conclusions
Low emotional support and low affectionate support have a significant association with antenatal depressive and anxiety symptoms respectively. As such, targeted screening of expectant women for social support is essential.

Abstract
A complex physiological culture medium (Plasmax) was introduced recently, composed of nutrients and metabolites at concentrations normally found in human plasma to mimic the in vivo environment for cell line cultivation. As glycosylation has been proved to be involved in cancer development, it is necessary to investigate the glycan expression changes in media with different nutrients. In this study, a breast cancer cell line, MDA-MB-231BR, and a brain cancer cell line, CRL-1620, were cultivated in Plasmax and commercial media to reveal cell line glycosylation discrepancies prompted by nutritional environments. Glycomics analyses of cell lines were performed using LC-MS/MS. The expressions of multiple fucosylated N-glycans, such as HexNAc4Hex3DeoxyHex1 and HexNAc5Hex3DeoxyHex1, derived from both cell lines exhibited a significant increase in Plasmax. Among the O-glycans, significant differences were also observed. Both cell lines cultivated in EMEM had the lowest amounts of O-glycans expressed. The original work described the development of Plasmax, which improves colony formation, and resulted in transcriptomic and metabolomic alterations of cancer cell lines, while our results indicate that Plasmax can significantly impact protein glycosylation. This study also provides information to guide the selection of media for in vitro cancer cell glycomics studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical value of three-dimensional (3D) visualization technique in laparoscopic D3 radical resection of right colon cancer. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 73 patients with right colon cancer undergoing laparoscopic D3 radical operation in our hospital between May, 2019 and March, 2021. Among these patients, 41 underwent enhanced CT examination with 3D visualization reconstruction to guide the actual operation, and 32 underwent enhanced CT examination only before the operation (control group). In 3D visualization group, we examined the coincidence rate between the 3D visualization model and the findings in surgical exploration of the anatomy and variations of the main blood vessels, supplying vessels of the tumor, and the tumor location, and the coincidence rate between the actual surgical plan for D3 radical resection of right colon cancer and the plan formulated based on the 3D model. The operative time, estimated blood loss, unexpected injury of blood vessels, number of harvested lymph nodes, mean time of the first flatus, complications, postoperative hospital stay and postoperative drainage volume were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The operative time was significantly shorter in 3D visualization group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The volume of blood loss, proportion of unexpected injury of blood vessel, the number of harvested lymph nodes, time of the first flatus, proportion of complications, postoperative hospital stay and postoperative drainage volume did not differ significantly between the two groups (P > 0.05). In the 3D visualization group, the 3D visualization model clearly displayed the shape and direction of the colon, the location of the tumor, the anatomy and variation of the main blood vessels and the blood vessels supplying the cancer, and showed a coincidence rate of 100% with the findings by surgical exploration. The surgical plan for D3 radical resection of right colon cancer was formulated based on the 3D model also showed a coincidence rate of 100% with the actual surgical plan. CONCLUSION The 3D visualization reconstruction technique allows clear visualization the supplying arteries of the tumor and their variations to improve the efficiency, safety and accuracy of laparoscopic D3 radical resection of right colon cancer.

Abstract
Glycosylation is known as a critical biological process that can largely affect the properties and the functions of proteins. Glycan isomers have been shown to be involved in a variety of disease progressions. However, the separation and identification of glycan isomers has been a challenge for years due to the microheterogeneity of glycan isomeric structures. Therefore, effective and stable techniques have been investigated over the last few decades to improve isomeric separations of glycans. RPLC has been widely used in biomolecule analysis because of its extraordinary reproducibility and reliability in retention time and separation resolution. However, so far, no studies have achieved high resolution of glycan isomers using this technique. In this study, we focused on further boosting the isomeric separation of permethylated glycans using a 500 mm reversed-phase LC column. To achieve better resolutions on permethylated glycans, different LC conditions were optimized using glycan standards, including core- and branch-fucosylated N-glycan isomers and sialic acid linked isomers, which were both successfully separated. Then, the optimal separation strategy was applied to achieve separations of N- and O-glycan isomers derived from model glycoproteins, including bovine fetuin, ribonuclease B and κ-casein. Baseline separations were observed on multiple sialylated linkage isomers. However, the separation performance of high-mannose isomers needs further improvement. The reproducibility and stability of this long C18 column was also tested by doing run-to-run, day-to-day and month-to-month comparisons of retention times on multiple glycans and the %RSD was found less than 0.92%. Finally, we applied this approach to separate glycan isomers derived from complex biological samples, including blood serum and cell lines, where baseline separations were attained on several isomeric structures. Compared to the separation efficiency of PGC and MGC columns, the RPLC C18 column provides lower resolution but more robust reproducibility, which makes it a good complementary alternative for isomeric separations of glycans.

Abstract
FAR-RED ELONGATED HYPOCOTYLS3 (FHY3) and its homolog FAR-RED IMPAIRED RESPONSE1 (FAR1), which play pivotal roles in plant growth and development, are essential for the photo-induced phyA nuclear accumulation and subsequent photoreaction. The FAR1/FHY3 family has been systematically characterized in some plants, but not in Eucalyptus grandis. In this study, genome-wide identification of FAR1/FHY3 genes in E. grandis was performed using bioinformatic methods. The gene structures, chromosomal locations, the encoded protein characteristics, 3D models, phylogenetic relationships, and promoter cis-elements were analyzed with this gene family. A total of 33 FAR1/FHY3 genes were identified in E. grandis, which were divided into three groups based on their phylogenetic relationships. A total of 21 pairs of duplicated repeats were identified by homology analysis. Gene expression analysis showed that most FAR1/FHY3 genes were differentially expressed in a spatial-specific manner. Gene expression analysis also showed that FAR1/FHY3 genes responded to salt and temperature stresses. These results and observation will enhance our understanding of the evolution and function of the FAR1/FHY3 genes in E. grandis and facilitate further studies on the molecular mechanism of the FAR1/FHY3 gene family in growth and development regulations, especially in response to salt and temperature.

Abstract
Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction syndrome caused by the host's maladjusted response to infection, and is one of the important causes of acute kidney injury (AKI). Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) has a high incidence, poor prognosis and high mortality. The pathogenesis of SA-AKI is very complex, and its pathogenesis has not been fully elucidated. Therefore, finding effective biomarkers for early diagnosis, treatment, disease development and prognosis of SA-AKI is an urgent clinical problem.

Abstract
Objective: To study the prevalence and associated factors of metabolic syndrome (MS) among Tibetan pastoralists in transition from high altitude nomadic to settled urbanized environment, especially dietary factors. Methods: The community-based cross-sectional study included 920 Tibetan adults (men 419, women 501). Data were collected using questionnaires, anthropometric measurements, and biomarker tests. Questionnaires included socio-economic, lifestyle characteristics and food consumption. Principal component analysis was used to identify dietary patterns. The risk factors of MS and its components were analyzed by logistic regression model. Results: The prevalence rates of MS and its components were 32.8% (MS), 83.7% (decreased HDL-C), 62.1% (central obesity), 36.7% (elevated blood pressure), 11.8% (elevated TG), and 7.9% (elevated blood glucose), respectively. The prevalence of overweight was 31.2%, obesity 30.3%. Multivariate analysis showed smoking was associated factor for both of decreased HDL-C (OR=1.239, 95%CI: 1.025-1.496) and elevated TG (OR=1.277, 95%CI: 1.038-1.571). Alcohol drinking appeared as associated factor of elevated TG (OR=1.426, 95%CI: 1.055-1.927). However, physical activity showed as a protective factor for central obesity, decreased HDL-C, and elevated TG. With the increase of age, the adherence to the urban and western dietary patterns decreased, and that to the pastoral dietary pattern increased. By quintiles of dietary pattern scores, the urban dietary pattern was significantly associated with MS (trend test P=0.016). Conclusions: Tibetan pastoralists had high prevalence of both MS and obesity. Smoking, alcohol drinking, the transition from pastoral dietary pattern to urban dietary pattern and inadequate physical activity served as associated factors for MS and its components.

Abstract
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is one of the leading causes of food-borne illnesses worldwide. To colonize the gastrointestinal tract, S. Typhimurium produces multiple virulence factors that facilitate cellular invasion. Chitinases have been recently emerging as virulence factors for various pathogenic bacterial species, and the S. Typhimurium genome contains two annotated chitinases: STM0018 (chiA) and STM0233. However, the role of these chitinases during S. Typhimurium pathogenesis is unknown. The putative chitinase STM0233 has not been studied previously, and only limited data exists on ChiA. Chitinases typically hydrolyze chitin polymers, which are absent in vertebrates. However, chiA expression was detected in infection models and purified ChiA cleaved carbohydrate subunits present on mammalian surface glycoproteins, indicating a role during pathogenesis. Here, we demonstrate that expression of chiA and STM0233 is upregulated in the mouse gut and that both chitinases facilitate epithelial cell adhesion and invasion. S. Typhimurium lacking both chitinases showed a 70% reduction in invasion of small intestinal epithelial cells in vitro. In a gastroenteritis mouse model, chitinase-deficient S. Typhimurium strains were also significantly attenuated in the invasion of small intestinal tissue. This reduced invasion resulted in significantly delayed S. Typhimurium dissemination to the spleen and the liver, but chitinases were not required for systemic survival. The invasion defect of the chitinase-deficient strain was rescued by the presence of wild-type S. Typhimurium, suggesting that chitinases are secreted. By analyzing N-linked glycans of small intestinal cells, we identified specific N-acetylglucosamine-containing glycans as potential extracellular targets of S. Typhimurium chitinases. This analysis also revealed a differential abundance of Lewis X/A-containing glycans that is likely a result of host cell modulation due to the detection of S. Typhimurium chitinases. Similar glycomic changes elicited by chitinase deficient strains indicate functional redundancy of the chitinases. Overall, our results demonstrate that S. Typhimurium chitinases contribute to intestinal adhesion and invasion through modulation of the host glycome.

Abstract
Phenazines are ubiquitously produced by Pseudomonas spp. in the environment and are widely used in agriculture and clinical therapies, making their accumulation through the food chain cause potential risks to human health. Here, we utilized pyocyanin (PYO) as a representative to study the effects of phenazines on digestive tracts. Pharmacokinetic analysis showed that PYO exhibited low systemic exposure, slow elimination, and low accumulation in both rat and pig models. PYO was subsequently found to induce intestinal microbiota dysbiosis, destroy the mucus layer and physical barrier, and even promote gut vascular barrier (GVB) impairment, consequently increasing the gut permeability. Additionally, integral and metabolomic analyses of the liver demonstrated that PYO induced liver inflammation and metabolic disorders. The metabolic analysis further confirmed that all of the metabolites of PYO retain the nitrogen-containing tricyclic structural skeleton of phenazines, which was the core bioactivity of phenazine compounds. These findings elucidated that PYO could be metabolized by animals. Meanwhile, high levels of PYO could induce intestinal barrier impairment and liver damage, suggesting that we should be alert to the accumulation of phenazines.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Histopathologic evaluation after surgery is the gold standard to evaluate treatment response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) in locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). However, it cannot be used to guide organ-preserving strategies due to poor timeliness. PURPOSE To develop and validate a multiscale model incorporating radiomics and pathomics features for predicting pathological good response (pGR) of down-staging to stage ypT0-1N0 after nCRT. STUDY TYPE Retrospective. POPULATION A total of 153 patients (median age, 55 years; 109 men; 107 training group; 46 validation group) with clinicopathologically confirmed LARC. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE A 3.0-T; fast spin echo T2 -weighted and single-shot EPI diffusion-weighted images. ASSESSMENT The differences in clinicoradiological variables between pGR and non-pGR groups were assessed. Pretreatment and posttreatment radiomics signatures, and pathomics signature were constructed. A multiscale pGR prediction model was established. The predictive performance of the model was evaluated and compared to that of the clinicoradiological model. STATISTICAL TESTS The χ2 test, Fisher's exact test, t-test, the minimum redundancy maximum relevance algorithm, the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator logistic regression algorithm, regression analysis, receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis, Delong method. P < 0.05 indicated a significant difference. RESULTS Pretreatment radiomics signature (odds ratio [OR] = 2.53; 95% CI: 1.58-4.66), posttreatment radiomics signature (OR = 9.59; 95% CI: 3.04-41.46), and pathomics signature (OR = 3.14; 95% CI: 1.40-8.31) were independent factors for predicting pGR. The multiscale model presented good predictive performance with areas under the curve (AUC) of 0.93 (95% CI: 0.88-0.98) and 0.90 (95% CI: 0.78-1.00) in the training and validation groups, those were significantly higher than that of the clinicoradiological model with AUCs of 0.69 (95% CI: 0.55-0.82) and 0.68 (95% CI: 0.46-0.91) in both groups. DATA CONCLUSION A model incorporating radiomics and pathomics features effectively predicted pGR after nCRT in patients with LARC. EVIDENCE LEVEL 3 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 4.
