Abstract
BACKGROUND The improvement of swallowing function after stroke is a significant challenge faced by patients and health care professionals. However, the current evidence synthesis of the effects of respiratory muscle training (RMT) on swallowing function is limited. OBJECTIVE To assess the effectiveness of RMT on swallowing recovery in patients undergoing stroke. METHODS The CKNI, WanFang Data, PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, Embase, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library databases were searched for studies evaluating RMT interventions' effect on swallowing outcomes. Risks of bias were evaluated using the approach recommended by the Cochrane Collaboration tool and a summary of findings table was generated using the GRADE approach. Outcomes were synthesized using a random-effects meta-analysis model. RESULTS RMT interventions reduced the risk of aspiration (SMD = 1.19; 95% CI, 0.53-1.84), the recovery process of water swallowing function (RR = 1.22; 95% CI, 1.05-1.42), and the activity of the swallowing muscles (SMD = 2.91; 95% CI, 2.22-3.61). However, there was no significant effect of RMT on the functional level of oral intake (SMD = 0.70; 95% CI, -0.03 to 1.42). CONCLUSIONS RMT can be regarded as an innovative, auxiliary means in the near future to better manage and improve swallowing function, given its improving effect on work outcomes in this review.

Abstract
A major consequence of aging and stress, in yeast to humans, is an increased accumulation of protein aggregates at distinct sites within the cells. Using genetic screens, immunoelectron microscopy, and three-dimensional modeling in our efforts to elucidate the importance of aggregate annexation, we found that most aggregates in yeast accumulate near the surface of mitochondria. Further, we show that virus-like particles (VLPs), which are part of the retrotransposition cycle of Ty elements, are markedly enriched in these sites of protein aggregation. RNA interference-mediated silencing of Ty expression perturbed aggregate sequestration to mitochondria, reduced overall protein aggregation, mitigated toxicity of a Huntington's disease model, and expanded the replicative lifespan of yeast in a partially Hsp104-dependent manner. The results are in line with recent data demonstrating that VLPs might act as aging factors in mammals, including humans, and extend these findings by linking VLPs to a toxic accumulation of protein aggregates and raising the possibility that they might negatively influence neurological disease progression.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the value of the aMAP risk score (age, male, albumin-bilirubin, and platelets) to predict early recurrence within one year after microwave ablation in patients with small hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods: This was a retrospective study that enrolled 142 patients diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma who were treated with microwave ablation in the Department of Hepatology Unit of Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University from July 2016 to July 2021. The cohort enrolled 121 male and 21 female patients, including 110 patients that were <60 years old. All the patients were followed-up after microwave ablation to evaluate residual tumor and recurrence of tumor by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. The observation indices mainly included general data and imaging data of patients. Using the X-tile tools, patients were divided into two groups: a high aMAP score group and a low aMAP score group. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was conducted for comparison of independent risk factors. Results: Multivariate Cox regression showed that high aMAP score, maximum tumor diameter >20 mm, and high AFP were the independent risk factors of early recurrence (all P<0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that the median recurrence-free survival was 25.5 months in the low aMAP score group and 6.1 months in the high aMAP score group (P=0.001). Conclusions: The aMAP score could predict the early recurrence within 1 year of small hepatocellular carcinoma after microwave ablation. Patients with high aMAP score should undergo rigorous postoperative follow-up evaluations..

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various digital sleep interventions have been implemented to address sleep and psychological complications during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. However, the characteristics and effectiveness of digital sleep interventions on sleep and psychological outcomes for people with sleep problems during the COVID-19 pandemic are unknown. METHODS The protocol of this systematic review and meta-analysis was registered on PROSPERO (ID: CRD42022325662), seven databases were searched from December 2019 to June 2023. Reference lists from digital sleep reviews were also identified and selected. Two reviewers independently screened eligible articles and extracted data. Quality appraisal was undertaken by two independent reviewers using the Cochrane Risk-of-Bias Tools. Data synthesis was conducted using fixed- or random-effects model based on the results of the heterogeneity test. RESULTS A total of 20 studies were identified, including nine randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and 11 non-RCTs, involving 3860 participants. Meta-analyses showed that digital sleep interventions significantly improve sleep quality, insomnia, and depression during the COVID-19 pandemic. Subgroup analysis showed that interventions of more than four weeks, healthcare workers as participants, and relaxation therapies may have the advantage of improving sleep quality. Most non-RCTs supported the efficacy of digital sleep interventions on sleep and psychological health. CONCLUSION Digital sleep interventions during the COVID-19 pandemic had significant effectiveness in improving sleep and psychological outcomes for people with sleep problems. More structured and personalised digital sleep interventions should be designed, and other diverse digital technologies could be used to improve sleep and psychological disorders.

Abstract
Objective: To explore risk factors associated with in-hospital mortality in patients requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in the perioperative period of heart transplantation. Methods: The data of ECMO cases in the perioperative period of heart transplantation from the Chinese Society of Extracorporeal Life Support (CSECLS) between January 2017 and December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into the survival group and non-survival group according to their outcomes at discharge. The demographics, indications and complications of ECMO between the two groups were compared, and the related risk factors of poor prognosis were analyzed. Results: A total of 77 patients were included in the study, including 67 males and 10 females, with a median age [M(Q1, Q3)] of 48 (36, 59) years. Sixty-three patients (81.8%) were successfully withdrawn from the ECMO and 46 patients (59.7%) survived to discharge. The median ECMO time was 139 (92, 253) hours. Compared with the survival group, the non-survival group (n=31) had more patients with chronic kidney disease before surgery [22.6% (7/31) vs 4.3% (2/46), P=0.034], and a higher proportion of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) during ECMO [74.2% (23/31) vs 50.0% (23/46), P=0.034]. Moreover, the non-survival group had longer duration of extracorporeal circulation [262 (195, 312) vs 201 (155, 261) min, P=0.056] and higher lactate value in the first 24 hours of ECMO support [2.7 (2.1, 4.7) vs 2.3 (1.4, 3.8) mmol/L, P=0.060], but the differences were not statistically significant. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that perioperative application of CRRT was an independent risk factor for poor prognosis in ECMO patients during heart transplantation (OR=19.345, 95%CI: 1.209-309.440, P=0.036). Conclusion: CRRT treatment during ECMO is a risk factor for in-hospital mortality in patients undergoing heart transplantation.

Abstract
The recently updated "Guidelines for the Prevention and Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis B" in China have brought about significant changes. The new treatment indications almost mandate the implementation of a Treat-all strategy for the chronically HBV-infected population in China. While simultaneous negativity for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA has long been an accepted criterion for treatment discontinuation, there has been controversies over the initiation of treatment criteria starting with HBsAg and HBV DNA positivity. Despite the inconsistent treatment criteria, the academic community has started supporting treat-all strategies in recent years due to the decreasing cost of treatment, prolonged management duration, and growing evidence of poor outcomes in untreated populations. Therefore, this update to the Chinese HBV guidelines represents a new direction that suggests "The greatest truths are the simplest." However, in the process of rolling out the Treat-all strategy, we must remain cautious of possible issues arising from the new strategy. Among them, the problem of partial response or low-level viremia following treatment may become more prominent due to the inclusion of a significant number of patients with normal or low levels of alanine transaminase. As existing evidence suggests that low-level viremia increases the risk of HCC in patients, it is essential to monitor and explore optimal therapeutic options for these patients.

Abstract
Physical distancing and contact restrictions have been implemented in most countries and territories due to the rapid spread of SARS-CoV-2. This has caused physical, emotional, and psychological distress for adults living in the community. Diversified telehealth interventions have been widely applied in health care and have proven to be cost-effective and well accepted by patients and health professionals. Currently, the effectiveness of telehealth interventions on psychological outcomes and quality of life among community adults during the COVID-19 pandemic remains unclear. A literature search was conducted using PubMed, PsycINFO, CINAHL, EMBASE, MEDLINE, and the Cochrane Library from 2019 to October 2022. Twenty-five randomized controlled trials with 3228 subjects were finally included in this review. Two independent reviewers performed the screening, extraction of key data points, and appraisal of the methodological quality. There were positive effects of telehealth interventions on anxiety, stress, loneliness, and well-being among community adults. Participants who were women or older adults were more likely to recover from negative emotions, increase well-being, and improve quality of life. The real-time and interactive interventions and remote cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) may be better choices during the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on the findings of this review, health professionals have more options and alternatives for delivering telehealth interventions in the future. Rigorously designed randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with higher statistical power and long-term follow-up should be conducted in the future to strengthen the currently weak evidence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Frailty has become an important determinant of a series of adverse health outcomes. We explored the risk factors for frailty in older adults in the community from a global perspective and explore whether there are ethnic differences in these risk factors. METHODS The systematic review and meta-analysis (PROSPERO registration number: CRD42022323342) was searched using six electronic databases, including PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PsycINFO (EBSCO) and CINAHL (EBSCO) from inception to October 2021. We assessed study eligibility by inclusion and excluded criteria. Cohort studies included were assessed according to the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Cross-sectional studies were assessed by the bias risk evaluation standard recommended by the Agency for Health care Research and Quality. The results were reported by a narrative synthesis and pooled analyses. Statistical analyses were performed in Review Manager 5.3 software. RESULTS We reviewed 10870 studies, and 62 studies were included. The results showed a significant association between multidomain risk factors and the frailty of global older adults, including demographic factors, health-related factors, and physical factors. Marital status, depression, risk of malnutrition, history of falls and disease-related symptoms are also risk factors for frailty among older people in Asia. CONCLUSION Multiple domain factors were associated with frailty among older people around the world. Compared with the rest of the world, Asian populations are exposed to more risk factors for frailty. Therefore, health care providers should consider the characteristics of risk factors for frailty in this region when formulating intervention measures related to frailty.

Abstract
The incidence and mortality of HCC in China account for approximately 50% of all cases worldwide. Low early diagnosis rate and high postoperative recurrence rate are two major causes for poor 5-year survival rate of HCC patients in China. At present, multiple problems such as low performance and compliance of screening technology and lack of effective markers for predicting postoperative recurrence, remain to be resolved. Due to the simplicity and accuracy, new molecular markers, such as liquid biopsy, are expected to serve as supplementary tools to traditional screening and early warning approaches, thereby realizing early detection and accurate treatment of HCC. In this article, research progress upon the clinical application of liquid biopsy in early screening and prediction of postoperative recurrence of HCC was reviewed, and prospects the future research.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
How does cyclophosphamide (CPA) treatment impact at transcriptional level on mouse ovarian tissue?
Summary answer
Cultured murine ovarian tissue with CPA versus control showed up-regulated intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathways, associated with DNA damage, DNA repair and oxidative response.
What is known already
Alkylating chemotherapeutic treatment depletes the ovarian pool and induces infertility in women. The suggested mechanisms behind these adverse effects include apoptosis and/or over-activation of the dormant primordial follicle pool. However, there is a lack of knowledge about the pathways that lead to these outcomes and previous researches have been inconclusive. The investigation of changes in the ovarian transcriptomic profiling following the alkylating drug CPA treatment can be useful to identify new potential targets for fertility preservation in women treated for cancer.
Study design, size, duration
Controlled experimental study using 20 female B6CBA/F1 4-day-old mice. Ovaries were collected and randomly assigned to CPA (4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide) treated group (n = 20) or control group (n = 20). Five ovaries/group were collected at 8, 12, 24 and 36 h to investigate the dynamic of the changes. RNA extraction and RNA sequencing analysis were carried out.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Ovaries were cultured on Millicell cell culture inserts floating on 0.25 mL culture medium in a 24-well plate. Freshly prepared 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide solution was added to the wells of CPA group (final concentration = 5 µM). Equal amount of solvent was added to the wells of control group. Culture medium was refreshed at 48 h with culture medium only. RNA sequencing data were processed for subsequent differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA).
Main results and the role of chance
At 8 h, CPA treatment induced the up-regulation of biological processes related to hypoxia, cell growth and embryonic organ development. At 12 h, DNA damage and the ovarian cell responses were evidenced by an increased activity of DNA damage response, DNA damage checkpoint, DNA repair (double-strand break, mismatch, single strand binding), stress-activated MAPK cascade, antioxidant activity and intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. The representative genes of these processes there were Bbc3, Bax, Trp73, Cdkn1a, Trp53inp1 and Mdm2. A dramatic increase in the number of DEGs was found at 24 h (8 h, n = 209; 12 h, n = 239; 24 h, n = 2013). Also at 24 h DNA repair, intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathways were the most representative processes evidenced by the addition of Rad9a, H2afx, Casp3, Bak1 and Casp8 genes to the above mentioned. Whereas, germ cell related genes Ybx2, Nobox and Ddx4 were all down-regulated. At 36 h, the number of DEGs (n = 3804) still increased, the up-regulated pathways were similar to 24 h, while meiosis and microtubule-based movements pathways were observed in the down-regulated set too.
Limitations, reasons for caution
Although the age of the mice chosen for the experiment ensured a high and representative content of primordial follicles in the ovary, whole ovaries were used for RNA sequencing analysis containing a heterogeneous composition of cells other than follicles.
Wider implications of the findings
Our results provide evidence of dynamic sequential changes in transcriptional level where apoptosis was involved in CPA-induced ovarian follicle depletion. Our research indicates a time frame before the occurrence of DNA definitive damage following CPA-treatment, where application of possible treatments in order to prevent the following apoptosis would be possible.

Abstract
BackgroundPrimary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS) is a heterogeneous, chronic, complex systemic autoimmune disease. The hallmark symptom of the disease is exocrinopathy, chiefly salivary and lachrymal glands, which often results in dryness of the mouth and eyes. As of today, although a lot of genetic and epigenetic studies have reveal the complexity of pSS to a certain extent, but the knowledge of existing pSS disease heterogeneity is still limited and the immune mechanisms of salivary glands (SG) injury have been challenging to clarify.ObjectivesSingle-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is a powerful tool capable of defining cell types and states on the basis of their individual transcriptome in a given sample from health and disease. To characterize the salivary glands immune microenvironment of patients with pSS, we performed droplet-based single cell mRNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) (10X Genomics) to provide a deeper insight into the cellular and molecular characteristics of salivary glands from pSS patients.Methods11 patients and 5 non-pSS controls were recruited from the The First Affiliated Hospital of USTC. The non-pSS were subjects who had experienced subjective symptoms of dryness, but no not meet any of the classification criteria of pSS. The clinical characteristics and laboratory findings of enrolled patients were also collected. After resection, salivary glands tissue samples were obtained after labial gland biopsy, rapidly digested to a single-cell suspension and subjected to scRNA-seq using the 10X platform. After rigorous quality control (QC) definition, low-quality cells were filtered. Following gene expression normalization for read depth and mitochondrial read count, we applied principle component analysis on genes variably expressed across all 72,853 cell.ResultsA total of 72,853 cells were obtained from all salivary glands samples. Our results revealed 12 major unique cell populations of salivary glands cell, including T cells, B cells, plasma cells, epithelial cells, myoepithelial cells, endothelial cells, myofibroblast, pericytes, melanocytes, fibroblast, myeloid cells and a cluster of unknown cells. As expected, lymphocytes (T and B cell populations) were significant increase in the salivary glands of patients with pSS. For further subsets analysis, we identify 41 subsets, including novel subpopulations in cell types hitherto considered to be homogeneous, as well as transcription factors underlying their heterogeneity. Strikingly, we found that differentially expressed genes (DEGs) that myoepithelial cells uniquely downregulated in pSS patients were involved in regeneration, stem cell population maintenance, cell division, and epithelial cell proliferation. This indicated an impaired stem cell property and regeneration capacity of myoepithelial cells in the SG of pSS patients which may result in the reduction of normal epithelial cells differentiation and proliferation. Our results identified three distinct endothelial subtypes according to the differentially expressed cell markers. ACKR1+ endothelial cells were expanded in the SG of pSS patients which may enhance Leukocyte transendothelial migration. A clear interferon response was observed in most celltypes. We also found a significantly expand PD-1hiCXCR5–CD4+T peripheral helper (Tph), GZMK+CD8+ T cells and a patient-specific fibroblasts in pSS patients. Cellular interaction analysis of SG revealed a strong interaction between epithelial cells and immune cells from pSS patients through CD74-MIF, MIF-TNFRSF14 and HLA-C-FAM3C receptor/ ligand pairs. Chemokine receptors CXCR4 were broadly expressed in SG immune cells implying a potentially central role in cell trafficking.ConclusionThis resource provides deeper insights into pSS salivary glands immune microenvironment that will be helpful in understanding of the disease heterogeneity and advancing pSS therapy.Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Maintaining care for elderly individuals in rural areas is heavily dependent on support from informal caregivers. Many informal caregivers of the elderly in rural areas feel burdened and urgently require professional support. Interests in telehealth that can provide support irrespective of geographical location have been increasing. OBJECTIVE To identify the benefits of and barriers in telehealth engagement for rural caregivers to provide evidence for service improvement. DESIGN A scoping review method was used following PRISMA-ScR guidelines and Arksey and O'Malley's five-stage framework. Five databases were searched. The search terms were chosen based on the target intervention (i.e. telehealth), target population (caregivers of elderly individuals) and target context (rural areas). Two authors independently assessed the eligibility of studies and extracted data from eligible studies. FINDINGS Of 4220 retrieved studies, 19 articles met the inclusion criteria. This study identified four benefits of and two barriers to telehealth for rural caregivers. Four subthemes were identified as the key benefits in using telehealth for caregivers: decrease in psychological distress, increase in care efficiency, increase in social support and increase in access to resources, while inadequate telehealth infrastructures and caregivers' own reasons were the primary barriers in using telehealth for those populations. CONCLUSIONS Telehealth was shown to significantly benefit rural caregivers. Future research can be designed and conducted for overcoming the barriers to telehealth. Additionally, the benefits identified by this review need to be translated from research into practice for rural caregivers' care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Accumulating evidence has been revealed that miR-590 is involved in the progression and carcinogenesis of various cancers. However, the molecular mechanism of miR-590 in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains unclear. METHODS Quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (qRT-PCR), western blot, MTT, and transwell assay were applied to investigate the functional role of miR-590 in this study. Dual luciferase reporter assay was utilized to investigate the interaction between YAP1 and miR-590 expression. Cells transfected with miR-590 mimic or inhibitor were subjected to western blot to investigate the role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in NSCLC modulated by miR-590. RESULTS MiR-590 was down-regulated in NSCLC tissues and cells. Kaplan-Meier analysis found that the higher expression of miR-590 in NSCLC patients, the more improved survival rate of NSCLC patients. Over-expression of miR-590 inhibited NSCLC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Moreover, increasing miR-590 suppressed Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) expression and inhibited the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in NSCLC cells. Furthermore, miR-590 was negatively correlated with YAP1 expression. CONCLUSION These findings demonstrated that the miR-590/YAP1 axis exerted an important role in the progression of NSCLC, suggesting that miR-590 might be the appealing prognostic marker for NSCLC treatment.

Abstract
To explore the association between frailty and self-care in older adults with congestive heart failure and analyze their influencing factors. The cross-sectional study was conducted at the department of cardiology of a hospital in China from March 2018 to November 2018. A total of 165 participants were recruited. Frailty and self-care were measured by the Tilburg Frailty Indicator, and the Self-care of Heart Failure Index (V6). The physical, psychological, and social frailty exerted a significant negative association with self-care. Exercise, income, comorbidities, and times of congestive heart failure-related hospitalizations were independent risk factors for frailty; surgical treatment, comorbidities, and income were independent risk factors for self-care. These findings help to fill the need for new approaches to identify the high risk of frailty individuals in the acute care setting for targeted intervention and tailored transitions in care to promote optimal patient quality care and biopsychosocial well-being.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the rapid spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) around the world, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared it a global pandemic on March 11, 2020. This declaration had an unprecedented impact on health profession education, especially the clinical clerkship of nursing and medical students. The teaching hospitals had to suspend traditional bedside clinical teaching and switch to digital education. OBJECTIVE To systematically synthesize the available literature on the application of digital education in undergraduate nursing and medical interns during the COVID-19 pandemic. DESIGN A systematic review informed by PRISMA guidelines. DATA SOURCES Five electronic databases were systematically searched: PubMed, Embase, MEDLINE (OVID), CINAHL and the Cochrane Library. REVIEW METHODS The retrieved articles were screened at the title, abstract, and full text stages. The Mixed-Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT) was used to assess the quality of quantitative and mixed-method studies. Then, two reviewers extracted the quantitative data of the included studies. RESULTS A total of 4596 studies were identified following a comprehensive search, and 16 studies were included after removing duplicates and screening, which focused on undergraduate nursing students (3 studies) and medical students (13 studies). We found that the standalone digital education modalities were as effective as conventional learning for knowledge and practice. Different educational technologies have different effects on the knowledge and practice of interns. CONCLUSION Digital education plays a significant role in distance training for nursing and medical interns both now and in the future. The overall risk of bias was high, and the quality of evidence was found to be variable. There is a need for further research designing more quasi-experimental studies to assess the effectiveness of standalone digital education interventions for the remote training of nursing or medical interns to be fully prepared for emergencies.

Abstract
Plants possess an innate immune system for defence against pathogens. In turn, pathogens have various strategies to overcome complex plant defences. Among diverse pathogens, phytoplasmas are associated with serious diseases in a range of species. RNA silencing serves as an efficient defence system against pathogens in eukaryotes but can be interrupted by RNA silencing suppressors (RSSs) encoded by pathogens. Currently, many RSSs have been identified in viruses, bacteria, oomycetes and fungi. Phytoplasmas are pathogens in several hundred plant species. In this research, 37 candidate effectors of wheat blue dwarf (WBD) phytoplasma were screened for presence of RSS. Agro-infiltration assay, yeast expression system, floral-dip method for constructing transgenic A. thaliana, Western blotting and RT-qPCR were used for identification of RNA silencing suppressors. SWP16 encoded by WBD phytoplasma was found to be a secretory protein that inhibited accumulation of GFP siRNA and led to the accumulation of GPF mRNA in systemic N. benthamiana 16c. Furthermore, in A. thaliana SWP16 inhibited production of miRNAs, which are components of RNA silencing. SWP16 also promoted infection of potato virus X. We conclude that SWP16 encoded by WBD phytoplasma was an RSS, suppressing systemic RNA silencing. This is the first evidence that a phytoplasma encodes an RSS and provides a theoretical basis for research on the interaction mechanisms between pathogens and plants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To accurately identify ABO blood typing in pre-transfusion testing is very important to ensure blood transfusion safely, which is a major responsibility of blood station. METHODS Eighty-one blood donors samples with ABO blood group typing discrepancy was collected among 61952 donor samples in our blood station from January 2019 to July 2020. Blood group serological method was used to detect ABO blood group. DNA Sequencing was used to determine the genotype. The antibody screening test detects antibodies other than ABO. RESULTS In total, 61,952 donor samples were analysed for ABO typing discrepancies. The incidence among blood donors was 0.13% (81/61952). The most common reason of ABO typing discrepancies was due to specific antibody or non-specific agglutination (54.32%, 44/81), mainly anti-M antibody, cold autoantibody, anti-D antibody, anti-N antibody and anti-Lea antibody. The major cause of forward typing discrepancies among blood donors was ABO subgroups (25.93%, 21/81), including 10 cases of A subtype (1 case of A2, 2 cases of A3, 2 cases of Ax, 3 cases of AxB, 1 case of Ael, 1 case of Ahm), 6 cases of B subtype (2 cases of B3, 1 case of Bel, 3 cases of AB3), 2 cases of B subtype (A), 1 case of cisAB, and 2 cases of acquired B. The serum antibody was weakened in 16 cases (19.75%). CONCLUSIONS The blood types should be correctly identified by combining serology with gene sequencing to ensure the safety of clinical blood transfusion, when the forward and reverse typing discrepancies among the blood donors.

Abstract
Objective: The aMAP score is a hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk prediction model based on an international cooperative cohort, which can be applied to various liver diseases. The aim of this study is to use the aMAP score to stratify the risk of HCC in patients with chronic liver disease (combined or non-combined metabolic diseases) admitted to People's Hospital of Yudu County, Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province, in order to guide personalized HCC screening. Methods: The demographic information, laboratory test results (platelets, albumin, and total bilirubin) and combined disease information of patients with chronic liver disease who were admitted to People's Hospital of Yudu from January 2016 to December 2020 were collected, and the aMAP score was calculated to stratify HCC risk in this population. Results: A total of 3629 cases with chronic liver disease were included in the analysis, including 3 452 (95.1%) cases with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, 177 (4.9%) cases with fatty liver, and 22 (0.6%) cases with HBV infection and fatty liver. There were 2 679 (73.8%) male and the median age was 44 (35, 54). In the overall population, low, medium and high risk of HCC accounted for 52.6%, 29.0%, and 18.4% respectively. In the HBV-infected population, the proportion of high risk of HCC was significantly higher than that of fatty liver (18.9% vs. 9.6%, P = 0.001). The proportion of chronic liver disease patients with combined hypertension or diabetes was significantly higher than that of those with non-combined metabolic diseases (combined hypertension: 32.3% vs. 17.9%, P < 0.001; combined diabetes: 36.5% vs. 18.1%, P < 0.001). Moreover, the proportion of high-risk population with two metabolic diseases was significantly higher than that with one and no metabolic diseases (40.9% vs. 31.8% vs. 17.7%, P < 0.001). Conclusion: The aMAP score can be used as a simple tool for HCC screening and management of chronic liver disease in primary hospitals, and it is helpful to improve the personalized follow-up management system of chronic liver disease population. Chronic liver disease patients with metabolic diseases have a higher risk of HCC, and people with high risk of HCC should be given special priority in follow-up visits, so as to improve the rate of HCC early diagnosis and reduce the mortality rate.

Abstract
The comprehensive management of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a complete, dynamic and personalized process. Therefore, how to scientifically determine the HCC high-risk/extremely high-risk populations and develop a stratified monitoring plan is the key link to early detection, diagnosis and improvement of overall survival. In addition, accurately identifying high-risk/extremely high-risk groups based on the HCC risk prediction model, and applying it to establish an integrated hospital-community pyramid for HCC screening through the implementation of interdisciplinary scientific management and treatment may ultimately reduce HCC-related mortality rate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Population ageing is a global problem, and one of the adverse effects in China is the rural empty-nest phenomenon, which is increasingly prominent. Recently, the sleep problems of rural empty nesters have gradually aroused attention. The purpose of this article was to investigate sleep quality and its influencing factors in rural empty nesters and explore the correlation between social support, resilience and sleep quality in the target population. METHODS This study investigated 250 empty nesters in six rural areas. Information on sociodemographics, sleep quality, social support and resilience was collected. Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis were used to determine the influencing factors of sleep quality. The Spearman correlation coefficient was used to evaluate the linear associations between social support, resilience and sleep quality. The mediating effect of resilience between social support and sleep quality was measured by bootstrap-mediated analysis. RESULTS The sleep quality score among rural empty nesters was 6.74 ± 3.80. Sleep quality was influenced significantly by marital status, monthly income, number of chronic diseases and frequency of communication with children. Besides, social support and resilience were significantly positively correlated with sleep quality. Resilience was not the only mediating variable between social support and sleep quality. CONCLUSION The sleep quality of rural empty nesters was poorer than those of the general rural older adults and affected by multiple factors. Moreover, social support and resilience had a positive impact on the sleep quality of rural empty nesters, which provided new ideas for exploring specific measures to improve their sleep quality in the future.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the role and related mechanism of mammalian sterile 20-like kinase 1(Mst-1)in regulating hypoxia reoxygenation (HR) induced myocardial cell autophagy and apoptosis. Methods: Enzyme digestion method combined with differential adherent method was used to culture neonatal mouse myocardial cells. HR model was established by hypoxia for 24 hours and reoxygenation for 6 hours. The experimental groups including control group (normal cultured cardiomyocytes), Mst-1 empty virus group (cardiomyocytes transfected with recombinant lentiviral empty vector for 48 hours), Mst-1 knockdown group (recombinant lentivirus carrying Mst-1small interfering RNA (siRNA) was transfected into cardiomyocytes for 48 hours), Mst-1 overexpression group (cardiomyocytes were transfected with recombinant lentivirus carrying Mst-1 gene for 48 hours), HR group (cardiomyocytes exposed to HR), Mst-1 knockdown+HR group (HR model of cardiomyocyte was established 48 hours after transfection with recombinant lentivirus carrying Mst-1siRNA) and Mst-1 overexpression+HR group (HR model of cardiomyocyte was established 48 hours after transfection with recombinant lentivirus carrying Mst-1 gene). Real-time fluorescence quantitative RCR (qPCR) and Western blot were used to detect the relative expression of Mst-1 mRNA and protein in the cells, immunofluorescence staining was used to detect cardiomyocyte troponin T (cTnT), and autophagosomes and autophagy enzyme changes. TUNEL method was used to detect myocardial cell apoptosis, Western blot was adopted to detect autophagy-related protein microtubule-related protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ, P62 and apoptosis-related protein cleaved-caspase 9, pro-caspase 9, cleaved-caspase-3, pro-caspase-3, and myeloid leukemia 1 (MCL-1) expression. MCL-1 inhibitor A1210477 was used to validate the signaling pathway of Mst-1 on regulating cardiomyocyte apoptosis and autophagy. Results: Immunofluorescence detection revealed that the cultured cells expressed cardiomyocyte-specific marker cTnT. The expression of Mst-1 in cardiomyocytes increased in HR model. Lentiviral transfection could effectively inhibit or overexpress Mst-1 in treated cells. The levels of autophagosomes and autophagolysosomes in cardiomyocytes undergoing HR and in Mst-1 overexpression+HR group were lower than those of control group, while autophagosomes and autophagolysosomes in cardiomyocytes of Mst-1 knockdown+HR group was significantly higher than in the HR group (all P<0.05). The TUNEL results showed that the proportion of TUNEL positive cells was significantly increased in the HR group and Mst-1 overexpression+HR group than in the control group, while the proportion of TUNEL positive cells was significantly decreased in the Mst-1 knockdown group+HR group as compared to the HR group (all P<0.05). Western blot results showed that the LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ levels were significantly lower, while the expression levels of P62, cleaved-caspase-9 and cleaved-caspase-3 were significantly higher in the HR group and Mst-1 overexpression+HR group than in control group (all P<0.05). The LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ value was significantly higher, and the expression levels of P62, cleaved-caspase-9 and cleaved-caspase-3 were significantly lower in the Mst-1 knockdown+HR group than in the HR group (P both<0.05). The expression level of P-MCL-1 protein was significantly lower in cardiomyocytes of HR and Mst-1 overexpression+HR group than in control group, and the expression level of P-MCL-1 protein was higher in Mst-1 knockdown+HR group than in HR group (P both<0.05). The recovery experiment showed that inhibiting MCL-1 in cells can block the regulatory effect of Mst-1 siRNA on cell autophagy and apoptosis. Conclusion: Inhibiting Mst-1 expression in cardiomyocytes can promote the autophagy of cardiomyocytes induced by hypoxic reoxygenation and reduce the apoptosis of cardiomyocytes via activating McL-1.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the contribution of single-gene defects to the genetic cause of cardiac left-sided lesions (LSLs), and to evaluate the incremental diagnostic yield of whole-exome sequencing (WES) for single-gene defects in fetuses with LSLs without aneuploidy or a pathogenic copy-number variant (pCNV). METHODS Between 10 April 2015 and 30 October 2018, we recruited 80 pregnant women diagnosed with a LSL who had termination of pregnancy and genetic testing. Eligible LSLs were aortic valve atresia or stenosis, coarctation of the aorta, mitral atresia or stenosis and hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). CNV sequencing (CNV-seq) and WES were performed sequentially on specimens from these fetuses and their parents. CNV-seq was used to identify aneuploidies and pCNVs, while WES was used to identify diagnostic genetic variants in cases without aneuploidy or pCNV. RESULTS Of 80 pregnancies included in the study, 27 (33.8%) had a genetic diagnosis. CNV-seq analysis identified six (7.5%) fetuses with aneuploidy and eight (10.0%) with pCNVs. WES analysis of the remaining 66 cases revealed diagnostic genetic variants in 13 (19.7%) cases, indicating that the diagnostic yield of WES for the entire cohort was 16.3% (13/80). KMT2D was the most frequently mutated gene (7/66 (10.6%)) in fetuses with LSL without aneuploidy or pCNVs, followed by NOTCH1 (4/66 (6.1%)). HLHS was the most prevalent cardiac phenotype (4/7) in cases with a KMT2D mutation in this cohort. An additional six (9.1%) cases were found to have potentially deleterious variants in candidate genes. CONCLUSIONS Single-gene defects contribute substantially to the genetic etiology of fetal LSLs. KMT2D mutations accounted for approximately 10% of LSLs in our fetal cohort. WES has the potential to provide genetic diagnoses in fetuses with LSLs without aneuploidy or pCNVs.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection is an important global public health issue. HEV infections are recognized as a zoonotic disease. Swine are believed to be the main reservoir of HEV. Recently, yaks, cows, and yellow cattle have been reported as new reservoirs of HEV. However, whether other species of cattle and buffaloes are sensitive to HEV infection is unknown. To investigate the prevalence of HEV infection in buffaloes, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and reverse transcription-nested polymerase chain reaction (RT-nPCR) were performed. Only one buffalo was positive to anti-HEV IgM antibody (1/106, 0.94%), and none were positive for anti-HEV IgG antibody. To our surprise, five serum (5/106, 4.72%) and three milk samples (3/40, 7.50%) from buffaloes were positive to HEV RNA. All strains of HEV isolated from buffaloes belong to genotype 4. Results indicate that buffaloes may be a new reservoir of HEV.

Abstract
Mitochondrial function is critical for cell vitality in all eukaryotes including plants. Although plant mitochondria contain many proteins, few have been studied in the context of plant development and physiology. We used knock-down mutant RPS9M to study its important role in male gametogenesis and seed development in Arabidopsis thaliana. Knock-down of RPS9M in the rps9m-3 mutant led to abnormal pollen development and impaired pollen tube growth. In addition, both embryo and endosperm development were affected. Phenotype analysis revealed that the rps9m-3 mutant contained a lower amount of endosperm and nuclear proteins, and both embryo cell division and embryo pattern were affected, resulting in an abnormal and defective embryo. Lowering the level of RPS9M in rps9m-3 affects mitochondrial ribosome biogenesis, energy metabolism and production of ROS. Our data revealed that RPS9M plays important roles in normal gametophyte development and seed formation, possibly by sustaining mitochondrial function.

Abstract
AIMS To extract and identify the metabolites of strain A217 as well as its antifungal spectrum and control effect on various plant pathogens. METHODS AND RESULTS Strain A217 was identified as a Streptomyces sp. which was most similar to Streptomyces lienomycini. An antimicrobial spectrum test indicated that strain A217 inhibited several plant pathogenic fungi and strong antibacterial effect such as Phytophthora capsici, Botrytis cinerea, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Fusarium oxysporum, Pseudomonas syringae and Xanthomonas campestris. An in vivo tissue test demonstrated that the fermentation broth of strain A217 exerted therapeutic and protective effects of 49·47 and 61·60% respectively, on S. sclerotiorum. Additionally, the fermentation broth of A217 exerted control effects on walnut black spot disease in walnut leaves and branches amounting to 79·33 and 81·52% respectively. In a pot experiment, the fermentation broth exhibited a stronger protective and control effect (68·29%), as well as better bacteriostatic and disease control effects on Phytophthora blight of pepper, compared with Metalaxyl. Compounds possessing antifungal and antibacterial activities were obtained from the fermentation broth of strain A217, using column chromatography and HPLC. Chemical and structural analyses conducted using MS and nuclear magnetic resonance confirmed that these compounds were 1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid and 1H-pyrrole-2-carboxamide. The EC50 values of compound 1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid1 for S. sclerotiorum and P. capsici were 20·13 and 50·36 μg ml-1 respectively. Compound 1H-pyrrole-2-carboxamide2 showed significant antibacterial activity against different plant pathogenic bacteria. The MIC values of P. syringae, X. campestris and X. campestris pv. jugiandis were 7·5, 30 and 15·0 μg ml-1 respectively. CONCLUSIONS Actinomyces A217 fermentation products have a broad spectrum of bacteriostasis, and have good bacteriostasis activity to many plant pathogenic fungi and bacteria. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY The present study revealed a new antimicrobial producing strain of Streptomyces and its potential application as a biological control agent for plant diseases.

Abstract
Objective: To study the effect on immune indexes in children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) before and after resection of adenoid and/or tonsil. Methods: A total of 100 children with OSAHS due to adenoid hypertrophy were enrolled in Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, the Second Hospital of Dalian Medical University from December 2016 to December 2018. Some cases were complicated with tonsil hypertrophy or chronic tonsillitis. 6 ml of fasting peripheral venous blood were collected from all subjects at the 1st day before surgery, 4th day, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after surgery to detect lymphoid subsets percentage (CD3(+), CD4(+),CD8(+), CD4/CD8, CD19, NK) and level of immunoglobulin (IgG, IgA, IgM). Grouping: group A was a total of 51 cases with adenoid hypertrophy after Adenoid plasma ablation; group B was a total of 27 cases with adenoid hypertrophy and chronic tonsillitis after plasma ablation of adenoid and tonsil; and group C was a total of 22 cases hypertrophy of adenoid and tonsil after plasma ablation of adenoid and tonsil.In the baseline data, age, gender and other variables were analyzed by anova and chi-square test, repeated measurement anova was used for intra-group and inter-group comparison of observation indicators at different time points after operation, and independent sample t-test was used for comparison between the two groups at observation points 3 months after operation. Results: (1) In group A, the percentage of CD19 lymphocytes before surgery was higher than that at 4th day after surgery, and the difference was statistically significant (21.85±6.20 vs.19.18±5.91, P<0.05). The other immune indexes were not statistically different before and after surgery (P>0.05). (2) In group B, the percentage of CD19 lymphocytes, CD3(+)T lymphocytes, CD8(+)T lymphocytes and the level of IgG at 4th day after surgery were significantly different between those before surgery (all P<0.05). At the 1st month after surgery, the percentage of CD3(+)T lymphocytes, CD8(+)T lymphocytes, CD19 lymphocytes and the level of IgG were significantly different between those before surgery (all P<0.05). The other immune indexes were not statistically different before and after operation (P>0.05). (3) In group C, the percentage of CD19 lymphocytes and the CD3(+)T lymphocytes at 4th day after surgery were significantly different between those before surgery (all P<0.05).In the 1st month after surgery, the percentage of CD8(+)T lymphocytes and CD19 lymphocytes were significantly different between those before surgery (all P<0.05). The other immune indexes were not statistically different before and after operation (P>0.05). (4) Among three groups, the percentage of CD4(+)T lymphocytes, the levels of IgG and IgA before surgery between group A and Group B were statistically significant (all P<0.05). At 4th day after surgery, the percentage of CD4(+)T lymphocytes in group B and C were lower than those in group A, and the differences were statistically significant (32.22±6.14, 32.36±6.87 vs. 36.36±5.19, all P<0.05); the other immune indexes were not statistically different among each group before and after surgery (P>0.05). Conclusions: Resection of adenoid has no significant effect on the immune indexes in children with OSAHS. The children with OSAHS complicated with tonsil problems have immune index disorder before surgery. Surgery has a certain effect on the immune indexes of children with OSAHS in a short period of time, and tends to normal level after one month.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the imaging and clinical features of fetal cardiac tumors, and to explore the relationship between tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) and cardiac rhabdomyoma in the fetus. METHODS Fifty-three women pregnant with a fetus affected by cardiac tumor(s) were examined by standardized fetal echocardiography (FE), and fetuses, mothers and fathers, including other relevant family members if necessary, underwent familial TSC genetic testing. Relevant pathological features, including pathological findings at clinical examination of liveborn infants and autopsy findings in terminated cases, were noted. RESULTS Of the 53 fetuses, 37 had multiple cardiac tumors and 16 had a single cardiac tumor detected by FE. In all 53 fetuses and their families, TSC genetic testing was successful, showing that 37 of the fetuses had a TSC1 (n = 6) or TSC2 (n = 31) pathogenic or suspected pathogenic mutation, of which 25 were spontaneous and 12 were familial mutations. The proportion of single and multiple cardiac tumors at FE was significantly different between the group of fetuses with positive genetic test results and that with negative results for TSC (31% and 86%, respectively), although the presence of multiple or single tumors was not associated with the type of TSC mutation. The decision to terminate the pregnancy was made by 45 women and their families, and eight fetuses were liveborn. Autopsy was performed in 38 fetuses, which revealed 36 cases with pathologically confirmed cardiac rhabdomyoma, one case of hemangioma and one case of fibroma. 93% of fetuses with multiple rhabdomyomas at autopsy and 71% of those with a single cardiac rhabdomyoma harbored a TSC1 or TSC2 mutation. CONCLUSION Cardiac rhabdomyoma is the most common cardiac tumor in the fetus. The correlation between cardiac rhabdomyoma and TSC is strong regardless of the presence of single or multiple tumors. For fetuses with suspected cardiac rhabdomyoma identified by FE, prenatal genetic testing for TSC of both fetus and family members is recommended. A positive genetic diagnosis can help in counseling and planning for neonatal treatment. Copyright © 2018 ISUOG. Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
