Abstract
Introduction The initial acquisition and subsequent development of the microbiota in early life is crucial to future health. Cesarean-section (CS) birth is considered to affect early microbial transmission from mother to infant. Methods In this study, we collected fecal samples from 34 CS infants and their mothers from West China Second Hospital, Sichuan University to assess the microbiota developmental trajectory of mothers and infants. We explored mother-infant gut microbiome transmission via comparison with corresponding Finnish data. Results Metagenomic analysis of gut microbiota profiles indicated that the communities of mothers and infants were distinct. The composition of the infant gut microbiome was highly variable but also followed predictable patterns in the early stages of life. Maternal communities were stable and mainly dominated by species from Bacteroidacea spp. We used PStrain to analyze and visualize strain transmission in each mother-infant pair. Excluding missing data, we included 32 mother-infant pairs for analysis of strain transmission. Most CS deliveries (65.6%, 21/32) did not demonstrate transmission of strains from mother to infant. To further explore the mother-infant strain transmission, we analyzed metagenomics data from Finnish mother-infant pairs. A total of 32 mother-infant pairs were included in the analysis, including 28 vaginal delivery (VD) infants and four CS infants. Strain transmission was observed in 30 infants, including 28 VD infants and two CS infants. All VD infants received transmitted stains from their mothers. Finally, a total of 193 strain transmission events were observed, comprising 131 strains and 45 species. Discussion Taken together, our data suggested that delivery mode was an important factor influencing the mother-infant strain transmission.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This research addresses inadequate understanding of interventional prenatal diagnosis, preoperative anxiety psychological problems in pregnant women undergoing interventional prenatal diagnosis, proposing a health education mode combined AIDET standard communication and King's theory of goal attainment approach to potentially improve health education outcomes, anxiety psychological problems, and patient satisfaction. METHODS A convenient sampling method was used to select a total of 300 pregnant women who were ready to undergo interventional prenatal diagnosis. They were randomly divided into a implementation group and a control group, with 150 pregnant women in each group. The control group used the communication mode of the traditional process of nurse-patient communication. The implementation group used the AIDET standard communication health education model under the King theory of goal attainment in the process of nurse-patient communication and the interventional prenatal diagnosis health education content questionnaire, the pregnant women's satisfaction questionnaire, state anxiety scale, and disease uncertainty scale were used for evaluation. RESULTS The results of the interventional prenatal diagnosis health education questionnaire, the results of pregnant women's anxiety, the results of pregnant women's disease uncertainty, the results of pregnant women's satisfaction, the implementation group all were better than the control group (P < .05). CONCLUSION Using the AIDET standard communication health education model under the King theory of goal attainment in nurse-patient communication is conducive to the rapid establishment of a harmonious and trusting nurse-patient relationship between pregnant women and nurses, helping pregnant women and nurses jointly promote the establishment and implementation of health education goals, helping to improve pregnant women's acceptance of information related to interventional prenatal diagnosis, health education and the procedure of walking on the day of surgery. It helps enhance the effectiveness of health education and satisfaction, reducing pregnant women's uncertainty about the disease, their unfamiliarity with the surgery environment and surgery procedure, and their preoperative anxiety.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To determine the efficacy of music therapy on pain relief during fundus screening in infants. METHODS The sample consisted of infants aged 0 to 3 months who required fundus screening. Infants were randomized to fast music, slow music, and control groups. All groups underwent fundus screening under topical anesthesia. Music therapy was provided to the music groups prior to, during, and after the operation. The patient's heart rate (HR), transcutaneous oxygen saturation, and crying decibel were measured. The Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability scale was used for pain measurement. RESULTS A total of 300 subjects' data were collected. The quantitative analysis revealed that in both music groups, peripheral capillary oxygen saturation and satisfaction levels increased while pain scores decreased (P < .05). The slow music group's HR was shown to have significantly decreased (P < .05). CONCLUSION Music therapy can effectively reduce pain and crying, and increase blood oxygen saturation during fundus examination of infants. Music with a rhythm of 60 to 80 beats per minute can decrease HR. Music therapy must be remembered to increase infants' comfort during fundus examination.

Abstract
The aim was to explore the effectiveness of a tracing methodology combined with failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) for managing falls in pregnant women during the perioperative period of interventional prenatal diagnosis. Using the tracing methodology, the process was evaluated and analyzed using FMEA after reviewing data, on-site interview, case tracking and on-site inspection, and improvement measures were proposed for the existing risk factors, and the fall-related quality indicators, satisfaction with fall-related health education, and risk priority number were compared before and after implementation. Effectiveness analysis for interventional prenatal diagnosis of perioperative maternal falls risk management resulted in a significant decrease in risk priority number (P < .01), a significant increase in the rate of correct fall risk identification and assessment, correct handover rate of pregnant women at risk of falls, correct intervention rate of pregnant women at high risk of falls, and effective coverage of falls-related health education (P < .01), a significant increase in satisfaction with falls-related health education (P < .001), and the incidence of falls among pregnant women decreased from 0.12% to 0%. The use of tracking methodology combined with FMEA can reduce the risk of perioperative maternal falls in interventional prenatal diagnosis and improve the safety of maternal visits.

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
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
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
BACKGROUND Preterm birth is the leading cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Despite evidence shows that imbalances in the maternal microbiome associates to the risk of preterm birth, the mechanisms underlying the association between a perturbed microbiota and preterm birth remain poorly understood. METHOD Applying shotgun metagenomic analysis on 80 gut microbiotas of 43 mothers, we analyzed the taxonomic composition and metabolic function in gut microbial communities between preterm and term mothers. RESULTS Gut microbiome of mothers delivering prematurely showed decreased alpha diversity and underwent significant reorganization, especially during pregnancy. SFCA-producing microbiomes, particularly species of Lachnospiraceae, Ruminococcaceae, and Eubacteriaceae, were significantly depleted in preterm mothers. Lachnospiraceae and its species were the main bacteria contributing to species' differences and metabolic pathways. CONCLUSION Gut microbiome of mothers delivering prematurely has altered and demonstrates the reduction of Lachnospiraceae.

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
Composite plants containing transgenic hairy roots produced with Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated transformation have become an important method to study the interaction between plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). Not all hairy roots induced by A. rhizogenes are transgenic, however, which leads to requirement of a binary vector to carry a reporter gene to distinguish transgenic roots from non-transformed hairy roots. The beta-glucuronidase gene (GUS) and fluorescent protein gene often are used as reporter markers in the process of hairy root transformation, but they require expensive chemical reagents or imaging equipment. Alternatively, AtMYB75, an R2R3 MYB transcription factor from Arabidopsis thaliana, recently has been used as a reporter gene in hairy root transformation in some leguminous plants and can cause anthocyanin accumulation in transgenic hairy roots. Whether AtMYB75 can be used as a reporter gene in the hairy roots of tomato and if the anthocyanins accumulating in the roots will affect AMF colonization, however, are still unknown. In this study, the one-step cutting method was used for tomato hairy root transformation by A.rhizogenes. It is faster and has a higher transformation efficiency than the conventional method. AtMYB75 was used as a reporter gene in tomato hairy root transformation. The results showed that the overexpression of AtMYB75 caused anthocyanin accumulation in the transformed hairy roots. Anthocyanin accumulation in the transgenic hairy roots did not affect their colonization by the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus, Funneliformis mosseae strain BGC NM04A, and there was no difference in the expression of the AMF colonization marker gene SlPT4 in AtMYB75 transgenic roots and wild-type roots. Hence, AtMYB75 can be used as a reporter gene in tomato hairy root transformation and in the study of symbiosis between tomato and AMF.

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
BACKGROUND Primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is a common clinicopathologic syndrome. More than 50% of the patients may have hypertension, which can further deteriorate the renal function of patients. However, the impact of hypertension on the development of end-stage renal disease in children with primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is still unclear. The end-stage renal disease greatly increases medical costs and mortality. Studying the related factors of end-stage renal disease is helpful to prevent and treat end-stage renal disease. This study aimed to explore the impact of hypertension on the long-term prognosis of children with primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. METHODS The data of 118 children with primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis admitted to the Nursing Department of West China Second Hospital from January 2012 to January 2017 were retrospectively collected. The children were divided into a hypertension group (n=48) and a control group (n=70) according to whether they had hypertension. The children were followed up (by clinic visit and telephone interviews) for 5 years to compare the differences in the incidence of end-stage renal disease between the two groups. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the proportion of patients with severe renal tubulointerstitial damage in the hypertension group was significantly higher (18.75% vs. 5.71%, P=0.026). Moreover, the incidence of end-stage renal disease was markedly higher (33.33% vs. 5.71%, P<0.001). Both systolic and diastolic blood pressure had a certain value in predicting the development of end-stage renal disease in children with primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (P<0.001 and P=0.025, respectively), and the predictive value of systolic blood pressure was relatively higher. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that hypertension was risk factors for end-stage renal disease in children with primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (P=0.009, relative risk: 17.022, 95% CI: 2.045-141.723). CONCLUSIONS Hypertension was a risk factor for poor long-term prognosis in children with primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. For primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis children with hypertension, blood pressure should be actively controlled to prevent the development of end-stage renal disease. Moreover, due to the high incidence of end-stage renal disease, we should monitor the end-stage renal disease during follow-up.

Abstract
With the advent of multiple omics and Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) technology, genome-scale functional analysis of candidate genes is to be conducted in diverse plant species. Construction of plant binary expression vectors is the prerequisite for gene function analysis. Therefore, it is of significance to develop a set of plant binary expression vectors with highly efficient, inexpensive, and convenient cloning method, and easy-to-use in screening of positive recombinant in Escherichia coli. In this study, we developed a set of plant binary expression vectors, termed pBTR vectors, based on Golden Gate cloning using BsaI restriction site. Foreign DNA fragment of interest (FDI) can be cloned into the destination pBTR by one-step digestion-ligation reaction in a single tube, and even the FDI contains internal BsaI site(s). Markedly, in one digestion-ligation reaction, multiple FDIs (exemplified by cloning four soybean Glyma.02g025400, Glyma.05g201700, Glyma.06g165700, and Glyma.17g095000 genes) can be cloned into the pBTR vector to generate multiple corresponding expression constructs (each expression vector carrying an FDI). In addition, the pBTR vectors carry the visual marker, a brightness monomeric red fluorescent protein mScarlet-I, that can be observed with the unaided eye in screening of positive recombinants without the use of additional reagents/equipment. The reliability of the pBTR vectors was validated in plants by overexpression of AtMyb75/PAP1 in tomato and GUSPlus in soybean roots via Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated transformation, promoter activity analysis of AtGCSpro in Arabidopsis via A. tumefaciens-mediated transformation, and protein subcellular localization of the Vitis vinifera VvCEB1opt in tobacco, respectively. These results demonstrated that the pBTR vectors can be used in analysis of gene (over)expression, promoter activity, and protein subcellular localization. These vectors will contribute to speeding up gene function analysis and the process of plant molecular breeding.

Abstract
Low temperature injury in spring has seriously destabilized the production and grain quality of common wheat. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying spring frost tolerance remain elusive. In this study, we investigated the response of a frost-tolerant wheat variety Zhongmai8444 to freezing stress at the meiotic stage. Transcriptome profiles over a time course were subsequently generated by high-throughput sequencing. Our results revealed that the prolonged freezing temperature led to the significant reductions in plant height and seed setting rate. Cell wall thickening in the vascular tissue was also observed in the stems. RNA-seq analyses demonstrated the identification of 1010 up-regulated and 230 down-regulated genes shared by all time points of freezing treatment. Enrichment analysis revealed that gene activity related to hormone signal transduction and cell wall biosynthesis was significantly modulated under freezing. In addition, among the identified differentially expressed genes, 111 transcription factors belonging to multiple gene families exhibited dynamic expression pattern. This study provided valuable gene resources beneficial for the breeding of wheat varieties with improved spring frost tolerance.

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
Secretion of oxalic acid from roots is an important aluminum detoxification mechanism for many plants such as Hevea brasiliensis (rubber tree). However, the underlying molecular mechanism and oxalate transporter genes in plants have not yet been reported. In this study, the oxalate transporter candidate genes HbOT1 and HbOT2 from the rubber tree were cloned and preliminarily identified. It was found that HbOT1 had a full length of 1163 bp with CDS size of 792 bp, encoding 263 amino acids, and HbOT2 had a full length of 1647 bp with a CDS region length of 840 bp, encoding 279 amino acid residues. HbOT1 and HbOT2 were both stable hydrophobic proteins with transmembrane structure and SNARE_assoc domains, possibly belonging to the SNARE_assoc subfamily proteins of the SNARE superfamily. qRT-PCR assays revealed that HbOT1 and HbOT2 were constitutively expressed in different tissues, with HbOT1 highly expressed in roots, stems, barks, and latex, while HbOT2 was highly expressed in latex. In addition, the expressions of HbOT1 and HbOT2 were up-regulated in response to aluminum stress, and they were inducible by metals, such as copper and manganese. Heterologous expression of HbOT1 and HbOT2 in the yeast mutant AD12345678 enhanced the tolerance to oxalic acid and high concentration aluminum stress, which was closely correlated with the secretion of oxalic acid. This study is the first report on oxalate transporter genes in plants, which provides a theoretical reference for the study on the molecular mechanism of oxalic acid secretion to relieve aluminum toxicity and on aluminum-tolerance genetic engineering breeding.

Abstract
Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated (ARM) transformation is an efficient and powerful tool to generate transgenic roots to study root-related biology. For loss-of-function studies, transgenic-root-induced indel mutations by CRISPR/Cas9 only with homozygous/biallelic mutagenesis can exhibit mutant phenotype(s) (excluding recessive traits). However, a low frequency of homozygous mutants was produced by a constitutive promoter to drive Cas9 expression. Here, we identified a highly efficient Arabidopsis thaliana gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase promoter, termed AtGCSpro, with strong activity in the region where the root meristem will initiate and in the whole roots in broad eudicots species. AtGCSpro achieved higher homozygous/biallelic mutation efficiency than the most widely used CaMV 35S promoter in driving Cas9 expression in soybean, Lotus japonicus, and tomato roots. Using the pAtGCSpro-Cas9 system, the average homozygous/biallelic mutation frequency is 1.7-fold and 8.3-fold higher than the p2 × 35Spro-Cas9 system for single and two target site(s) in the genome, respectively. Our results demonstrate the advantage of the pAtGCSpro-Cas9 system used in ARM transformation, especially its great potential in diploids with multiple-copy genes targeted mutations and polyploid plants with multiplex genome editing. AtGCSpro is conservatively active in various eudicots species, suggesting that AtGCSpro might be applied in a wide range of dicots species.

Abstract
Background There are different degrees of flaws in the knowledge structure of humanistic medicine of medical staff. The level of emotional intelligence of medical staff affects their career development as well as their relationship with patients. Currently, the research on humanistic care ability (HCA) and emotional intelligence of medical staff in China and other countries is rare. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between the level of HCA and level of emotional intelligence of the whole hospital staff. Methods The questionnaire survey employed contained self-designed questions on the hospital staff members’ socio-demographic background, Caring Ability Inventory, and Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence Scale. The survey was conducted with the staff of West China Second University Hospital, Sichuan University in April 2020. Results The hospital staff’s average CAI score was 197.77 ± 20.30, and their average WLEIS score was 84.21 ± 13.48. The CAI and WLEIS scores of the hospital staff who chose their college majors on their own interests were higher than those who chose their majors for other reasons (employability, suggestions from family or others, etc.). The CAI and WLEIS scores of the hospital staff who had received more comprehensive and in-depth humanistic care training were higher than those who did not. The CAI score of the hospital staff who had participated in volunteer service activities was higher than those who did not. The WLEIS score of the Pediatrics Department staff was higher than that of the Outpatient and Emergency Department staff, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The scores of emotional intelligence, self-emotion assessment and expression, self-emotion management, self-emotion utilization, emotion recognition of others, and HCA of the hospital staff were positively correlated (P < 0.001). Conclusion There were different levels of development of internal factors of emotional intelligence among the hospital staff, and their humanistic care ability was at a low level. Emotional intelligence was positively correlated to humanistic care ability. The findings suggest in-service training and education by healthcare institutions to enhance healthcare staff’s emotional intelligence for promoting the general health of the population.

Abstract
Polyethylene glycol-grafted gold nanoparticles are attached to silica nanoparticle cores via hydrogen bonding in a controlled fashion, forming well-defined core-satellite structures in colloidal solution. For separating these complex structures effectively from the parental nanoparticles, a straightforward and easy protocol using glass beads has been developed. The attached gold nanoparticles show unique surface mobility on the silica core surface, which allows for nanoparticle rearrangement into a 2D ring pattern surrounding the silica nanoparticle template when the core-satellite structures are cast to a planar surface. When etching away the silica core under conditions in which the polymer shell fixes the satellites to the substrate, highly ordered ring-shaped patterns of gold nanoparticles are formed. By variation of the size of the parental particles - 13 to 28 nm for gold nanoparticles and 39 to 62 nm for silica nanoparticles - a great library of different ring-structures regarding size and particle number is accessible with relative ease. The proposed protocol is low-cost and can easily be scaled up. It moreover demonstrates the power of hydrogen bonds in polymers as a dynamic anchoring tool for creating nanoclusters with rearrangement ability. We believe that this concept constitutes a powerful strategy for the development of new and innovative nanostructures.

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.
Disclosure
No significant relationships.

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
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
Studying spin-momentum correlations in hadronic collisions offers a glimpse into a three-dimensional picture of proton structure. The transverse single-spin asymmetry for midrapidity isolated direct photons in p^{↑}+p collisions at sqrt[s]=200 GeV is measured with the PHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Because direct photons in particular are produced from the hard scattering and do not interact via the strong force, this measurement is a clean probe of initial-state spin-momentum correlations inside the proton and is in particular sensitive to gluon interference effects within the proton. This is the first time direct photons have been used as a probe of spin-momentum correlations at RHIC. The uncertainties on the results are a 50-fold improvement with respect to those of the one prior measurement for the same observable, from the Fermilab E704 experiment. These results constrain gluon spin-momentum correlations in transversely polarized protons.

Abstract
The versatile properties make hydrogels a potential multipurpose material that finds wide applications. However, the preparation of multipurpose hydrogels is very challenging. Here, we report a method based on free radical reaction and composite mechanisms to prepare mechanical and electrical self-healing multifunctional hydrogels. In this study, the introduction of imidazolium salt ionic liquids and glycerol in the hydrogel system endows the gels with good antibacterial, conductive, and adhesive properties and excellent antifreeze properties. The testing results show that the as-prepared hydrogel has stable mechanical and electrical properties even under the extremely cold condition of -50°C after self-healing. Moreover, the active esters formed in the dynamic radical reaction have better reducibility, thus further investing the as-prepared hydrogel with high antioxidant activity. The application results show that these comprehensive properties make such hydrogel system very useful in wound repair and wearable strain sensors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to detect the expression of long intergenic non-protein-coding RNA 1503 (LINC01503) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and to further study its biological function, as well as the regulatory relationships of c-MYC with LINC01503 and the extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK)/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway in NSCLC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Tissue specimens were collected from 36 NSCLC patients, and the relative expression level of LINC01503 in the 36 cases of NSCLC tissue specimens and NSCLC cells was then determined using quantitative Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR). Then, the effects of LINC01503 on the proliferation and apoptosis of NSCLC cells were detected in vitro via Cell-Counting Kit (CCK)-8 assay, colony-forming assay and flow cytometry. Besides, the possible LINC01503 promoter-binding transcription factor was predicted using bioinformatics. After interference with c-MYC expression, the changes in the expression of LINC01503 were examined through qRT-PCR. Finally, the changes in the expressions of the molecular markers in the ERK/MAPK signaling pathway after interference with LINC01503 and c-MYC expressions were evaluated using Western blotting. RESULTS According to qRT-PCR results, the expression of LINC01503 was upregulated in 30 out of 36 cases of NSCLC tissues. Compared with that in human normal bronchial epithelial cells, the expression of LINC01503 was elevated in NSCLC cells. As shown by the CCK-8 assay and colony-forming assay, the proliferation ability of NSCLC cells was weakened after interference with LINC01503 expression, and the flow cytometry results revealed the apoptosis rate of NSCLC cells was raised after interference with LINC01503 expression. Moreover, the bioinformatics prediction showed that c-MYC might be the LINC01503 promoter-binding transcription factor. Additionally, it was found through the qRT-PCR that the expression of LINC01503 declined after interference with c-MYC expression. Finally, based on Western blotting results, the expressions of phosphorylated ERK1/2 (p-ERK1/2) and p-MAPK/ERK kinase (MEK), the molecular markers in the ERK/MAPK signaling pathway, were inhibited after interference with c-MYC and LINC01503 expressions. CONCLUSIONS The transcription factor c-MYC promotes the expression of LINC01503 in NSCLC and activates the ERK/MAPK signaling pathway to drive the development and progression of NSCLC.

Abstract
A novel mitochondrial-targeted deep-red fluorescence ATP probe, NIR-A, is reported. The probe showed a fast, selective, and reversible response for ATP with a significant turn-on fluorescence signal at 663 nm with a large Stokes shift of 81 nm. Additionally, the introduction of TPP enabled TPP-endowed NIR-A to be enriched predominantly in the mitochondria. NIR-A was successfully applied to monitor ATP fluctuation in Ramos cells and zebrafish in real-time with good biocompatibility.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a common chronic complication of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). This study sought to evaluate the effect of supervised exercise therapy (SET) on patients with PAD complicated with T2DM, and to assess the effect of changes in sedentary time on the results of SET treatment. METHODS A total of 100 PAD patients who were treated in our hospital from January 2019 to October 2020 were included, and the age, gender, body mass index (BMI), hypertension, smoking, and ankle brachial index (ABI) were collected. The patients were required to complete SET treatment 2-3 times a week for 12 weeks. Subsequently, the objective 6-minute walk test (6MWT) and Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) were used to assess body function. After adjusting for other key confounding variables such as age, gender, and smoking status, linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the effects of changes in sedentary time on the total distance of the 6MWT. RESULTS After 12 weeks of treatment, the total SPPB score of the patients increased from a baseline of 9.3±2.7 to 10.1±2.3 (P=0.025), the normal walking distance in the 6MWT increased from 108.9±26.8 to 148.9±29.5 m (P<0.001), the total walking distance increased from 322.5±93.4 to 348.5±86.1 m (P=0.042), and at the same time, the metabolic equivalent on the treadmill increased from 2.6±0.7 to 3.9±1.4 (P<0.001). Compared with the baseline data, the proportion of time that patients spent engaged in mild physical activity at 6 weeks increased by 20%±10% (P=0.003), and the average daily sedentary time decreased by 6.5±2.8 minutes (P=0.008), or by 3.1%±2.1% (P=0.04). Furthermore, compared with the baseline, the proportion of time that patients spent engaged in light and moderate physical activity at 12 weeks increased by 10%±3% (P=0.007) and 20%±10% (P=0.006), respectively, while the average sedentary time per day reduced by 6.8±3.1 minutes (P=0.03), or by 3.6%±1.8% (P=0.005). CONCLUSIONS The reduction of sedentary time can significantly improve the effectiveness of exercise therapy in patients with PAD complicated by T2DM, and compared with patients with PAD alone, the improvement in patients complicated with T2DM is more significant.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common disease in the elderly and seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Tra2β is a protein that has been found to activate PI3K/Akt in recent years. The purpose of this study was to explore the protective effects of Tra2β on chondrocytes and its mechanisms. PATIENTS AND METHODS The expression of Tra2β in knee cartilage tissue of patients with OA and normal people was compared. In addition, human primary chondrocytes were cultured, the expression of Tra2β in chondrocytes by cell transfection was changed, and its effects on extracellular matrix, inflammation, and apoptosis in chondrocytes were examined. LY294002 was also used to inhibit the activity of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway to verify the mechanism of Tra2β to protect chondrocytes. RESULTS The expression of Tra2β in the cartilage tissue of the OA group was significantly lower than that of the control group, and the IL-1β-induced chondrocytes also expressed the lower Tra2β. The overexpression of Tra2β increased the expression of extracellular matrix collagen II and decreased the expressions of MMP3/13, inflammatory factors (IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α), and apoptotic factors (caspase3/9, Bax). In addition, the overexpression of Tra2β also increased expression and phosphorylation of PI3K and Akt. However, LY294002 attenuated the protective effect of Tra2β on chondrocytes by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS Tra2β activates the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, reduces the degradation of extracellular matrix of chondrocytes, reduces the level of inflammation and apoptosis of chondrocytes, and thus, plays a role in the treatment of OA.

Abstract
Acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) is an overwhelming pulmonary inflammation with limited clinical treatment strategies. Interferon regulatory factor 5 (IRF5) is a crucial regulator of inflammation factors, which can be upregulated under an inflammatory state and related to the efferocytosis of macrophages. Herein, IRF5 was knockdown by small interfering RNA (siIRF5) to promote the anti-inflammatory effect of macrophages. Macrophage-targeting cationic liposome modified by folate (FA-LP) was developed to deliver siIRF5 (FA-LP/siIRF5). Liposomes were characterized for their particle size, zeta potential, protein adsorption and hemolysis of red blood cells. The amount of IRF5 mRNA and the expression of IRF5 were measured using quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) and western blot, respectively. The phenotype and efferocytosis of macrophages and the regulatory pathway of efferocytosis and biodistribution of liposomes in the ALI mice model were investigated. Data revealed that FA-LP/siIRF5 could obviously downregulate the expression of IRF5 in macrophages, skewing the polarization of macrophages to M2 phenotype (anti-inflammatory state) and thus improving their efferocytosis. Moreover, regulation of efferocytosis of macrophages by siIRF5 is related to the NF- B pathway. The in vivo biodistribution of FA-LP exhibited higher accumulation in the inflammatory lungs, suggesting that FA-LP could be considered as a promising gene delivery system and FA-LP/siIRF5 is an alternative strategy for the treatment of ALI/ARDS. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study reporting that siIRF5 can be used for the treatment of ALI/ARDS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress has an effect on cancer cell proliferation and survival. TMTC1 has been reported to be involved in cell proliferation and inflammation, and development of ER. Hsa_circRNA_101036 is an exon circRNA formed by splicing of TMTC1 mRNA precursor. This study intends to explore the effect of hsa_circRNA_101036 on the malignant behavior of oral squamous cell carcinoma through endoplasmic reticulum stress. MATERIALS AND METHODS We firstly evaluated the levels of Hsa_circRNA_101036 in human oral mucous fibroblasts (hOMF), and in several OSCC cell lines, including FaDu, OECM1, SAS, HSC3. Then, we studied the effects of overexpression of Hsa_circRNA_101036 on the cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, migration, and cytokine release in OSCC cells. Finally, we evaluated the levels of CHOP that are critical in ER and the ROS levels in OSCC cells. RESULTS We found that compared with hOMF, a significantly lower mRNA expression of Hsa_circRNA_101036 was found in OECM1 and HSC3 cells. In OECM1 and HSC3 cells, with overexpression of Hsa_circRNA_101036, a significant decrease in cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, migration, and cytokine release was found. A significantly increased ROS, as well as increased protein level of CHOP, P38 and Bcl-2, was found in cells with Hsa_circRNA_101036 overexpression. CONCLUSIONS This study indicated that Hsa_circRNA_101036 may acts as a tumor suppressor in OSCC via regulating the ER in cancer cells.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the feasibility of small drain in transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA). Methods: A prospective research was performed in Department of Oncology Plastic Surgery/Head and Neck Surgery, Hunan Cancer Hospital, from October 2018 to March 2019. Totally 103 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria, signed the operation agreement of TOETVA, had their surgery completed and followed-up over 6 months, were enrolled in analysis. A central venous catheter was used as a drain tube in all cases (outer diameter 1.7 mm, inner diameter 1.0 mm). Visual analogue scale (VAS) was applied for assessing pain scores during the first 24 hours after the operation. Vancouver scar scale (VSS) was used for assessing the scar left by the drainage. The drainage volume (minimum scale:10 ml, approximate read: 1 ml) was recorded every 2 hours during the first postoperative 12 hours, every 4 hours during 12 to 24 hours, every 8 hours during 24 to 48 hours, and once from 48 hours until extubation. The volume of drainage, the cumulative volume and the percentage of cumulative volume accounting for the total volume were calculated. The data of residual volume (subtract the cumulative volume from the total volume) in the postoperative 24, 32 and 40 hours were analyzed, and their upper one-side P(95) was calculated by percentile method. Results: There were 12 males and 91 females. The age was (36.6±9.7) years (range: 18 to 58 years). The intraoperative tube-inserting time was (10.1±2.6) minutes (range: 6 to 18 minutes). The pain score on the first day was 2.7±1.1 (range: 1 to 5). The extubation time was (2.7±0.5) days (range: 2 to 4 days). VSS scores in the postoperative 1(st) month and 6(th) month were 2.9±1.3 (range: 0 to 7) and 0(2)(M(Q(R))), respectively. The size of the scar was 0 (2.5) mm in the postoperative 6(th) month. Sixty-four patients had no visible scars. There were 5 patients who had postoperative drain-related complications (1 for air leakage, 1 for tube blockage, 3 for subcutaneous hydrop, 2 for regional infection), who were all cured after proper treatment. The total volume of drainage for 98 patients without postoperative drain-related complications was (80.1±12.2) ml (range: 58 to 131 ml). The cumulative drainage within 8 hours accounted for (53.8±4.2)% (range: 41.0% to 62.9%) of the total drainage. The volume of residual fluids in the postoperative 32 hours was estimated to (5.8±2.7) ml (range: 0 to 12 ml,P(95)=10.0 ml). Conclusions: The small drain tubecan be applied in TOETVA, providing a satisfied cosmetic appearance and a reliable drainage. The main exudation period of the wound is within 8 hours after the operation. If a residual volume less than 10 ml is considered to be self-absorbable, the shortest safe extubation point for 95% patients without drain-related complications should be 32 hours after the operation.

Abstract
To understand the diversities of diazotrophs and denitrifiers in red paddy soil under long-term fertilization conditions, nifH, nirK, and nosZ libraries were constructed by PCR-RFLP. nirK gene diversity proved to be lower than that of nosZ and nifH, and nirK and nosZ genes were more sensitive to different fertilization treatments than the nifH gene was. The 3 libraries were dominated by diverse microbes, including the Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta subclasses of the Proteobacteria. Long-term addition of urea with straw mulch and azophoska increased the abundance of nonsymbiotic diazotrophs, which indicated that nonsymbiotic diazotrophs were responsible for the majority of the nitrogen-fixing ability in paddy soil. In addition, a potential link between nifH and nosZ was found due to the existence of nitrogen fixers, such as Bradyrhizobium and Ralstonia, in the nosZ library. The main chemical factors affecting the 3 genes were identified: pH was the most important factor of the nifH community; the nirK gene was more affected by pH and organic matter; available potassium and the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio significantly influenced the community structure of the nosZ gene.

Abstract
Rugao and Haian belonging to First Branch of Su-Wan Liberated Area found fulminant cholera in 1946. The fulminant cholera spread throughout the Su-Wan Liberated Area in a short period of time. Thus, local mass and military led by CPC actively launched the Movement of Epidemic Prevention. They took some actions to clear up the circumstance, eliminate the pathogen, prevent the food contamination and cut off the route of transmission. Vaccination was carried out on a large scale. As a result of these measure, the fulminant cholera was efficiently controlled.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
This is a case study for recurrent stroke prevention. Lifestyle factors account for about 80% of the risk of recurrent stroke. Most health services studies examining stroke prevention rely on stroke survivors' self-reported lifestyle behaviour data. How can researchers increase the value of collected self-reported data to provide additional information for more comprehensive assessments?
Methods
45 and Up Study is the largest ongoing study in the Southern Hemisphere focusing on the health of people aged 45 years and older living in NSW, Australia. This case study linked self-reported longitudinal lifestyle data in the 45 and Up Study, with corresponding mortality data (i.e. NSW Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages & NSW Cause of Death Unit Record File) and hospital data (i.e. NSW Admitted Patient Data Collection) via the Centre for Health Record Linkage (CHeReL). The main outcome measures are health services, clinical outcomes, and mortality rates for stroke care. The analyses will include descriptive analysis, multivariate regression analysis, and survival analysis.
Results
A total of 8410 stroke survivors who participated in the 45 and Up Study were included in this data linkage study. From January 2006 to December 2015, 99249 hospital claims (mean: 13 times admission to hospital per person) and 2656 death registration records have been linked to these participants. The mean age of the stroke survivors was 72 (SD = 11) years, with 56% being males. These results are preliminary and more analyses will be conducted by using quality of life status, clinical diagnosis, comorbidities, and procedures.
Conclusions
Data linkage enables researchers to generate comprehensive findings on health services studies and gain a more holistic understanding of the determinants and outcomes of stroke prevention with lower data collection costs and less burden on participants.
Key messages
Data linkage brings about a new opportunity for self-reported data on health services utilisation. It is a cost-effective way to enhance existing self-reported data via the data linkage approach to increase its usefulness for informing health service planning.
