Abstract
AIM To evaluate the prevalence, aetiology, and corresponding morbidity of coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) in patients with suspected myocardial ischaemia. MATERIALS AND METHODS The present study included 115 patients with suspected myocardial ischaemia who underwent stress perfusion cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. CMD was assessed visually based on the myocardial perfusion results. The CMR-derived myocardial perfusion reserve index (MPRI) and left ventricular (LV) strain parameters obtained using the post-processing software CVI42 were employed to evaluate LV myocardial perfusion and deformation. LV strain parameters included global longitudinal, circumferential, and radial strain (GLS, GCS, and GRS), global systolic/diastolic longitudinal, circumferential, and radial strain rates (SLSR, SCSR, SRSR, DLSR, DCSR, and DRSR). RESULTS Of the 115 patients, 12 patients were excluded and 103 patients were finally included in the study. CMD was observed in 79 % (81 patients, aged 53 ± 12 years) of patients. Regarding aetiology, 91 (88 %) patients had non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD), eight (8 %) had obstructive CAD, and four (4 %) had hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The incidence of CMD was highest (100 %) in patients with HCM, followed by those with non-obstructive CAD (up to 79 %). There were no statistical differences between CMD and non-CMD groups in GCS, GRS, GLS, SRSR, SCSR, SLSR, DCSR, DRSR and DLSR. CONCLUSION The incidence of CMD was higher in patients with signs and symptoms of ischaemia. CMD occurred with non-obstructive CAD, obstructive CAD, and HCM, with the highest prevalence of CMD in HCM.

Abstract
Objective: To study the effect of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection on the occurrence of liver damage, HBV reactivation (HBVr) and the influence of HBVr on the prognosis of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) receiving systemic therapy. Methods: The clinical data of 403 patients with HBV-related HCC at the Department of Infectious Diseases, The Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University et al, from July 2018 to December 2020 were collected. The incidence of liver damage and HBVr during systematic therapy, and the influence of HBVr on survival prognosis were analyzed. Results: Of the 403 patients, 89.1% were male (n=359), with a median age of 51 years (51.5±12.1). Before propensity score matching (PSM), the proportion of patients with cirrhosis, TNM and advanced BCLC stage was higher in high HBV-DNA (baseline HBV-DNA>1000 U/ml, n=147) group comparing with the low HBV-DNA (baseline HBV DNA≤1000 u/ml, n=256) group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in baseline indexes between the two groups after PSM. In 290 patients after PSM, there was no significant difference in the incidence of liver damage and HBVr between high HBV-DNA group and low HBV-DNA group (P>0.05). Survival analysis was performed on 169 patients with survival data, the median overall survival (OS) was found to be 11.49 months (95%CI: 7.77-12.89) and 16.65 months (95%CI: 10.54-21.99, P=0.008) in the high and low HBV-DNA groups, respectively. And median progression-free survival (PFS) was 7.41 months (95%CI: 5.06-8.67) and 10.55 months (95%CI: 6.72-13.54, P=0.038), respectively, with a statistically significant difference. There were no differences in overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) between patients with and without HBVr and those with or without liver damage (P>0.05). Conclusions: HBV-DNA levels above 1 000 U/ml before systemic therapy do not increase the risk of liver damage or HBVr during systemic therapy in patients with HBV-related hepatocellular carcinoma, and such patients can safely receive systemic therapy.

Abstract
1. Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), a gamma-coronavirus, can infect chickens of all ages and leads to an acute contact respiratory infection. This study evaluated the anti-viral activity of palmatine, a natural non-flavonoid alkaloid, against IBV in chicken embryo kidney (CEK) cells.2. The half toxic concentration (CC50) of palmatine was 672.92 μM, the half inhibitory concentration (IC50) of palmatine against IBV was 7.76 μM and the selection index (SI) was 86.74.3. Mode of action assay showed that palmatine was able to directly inactivate IBV and inhibited the adsorption, penetration and intracellular replication of IBV.4. Palmatine significantly upregulated TRAF6, TAB1 and IKK-β compared with the IBV-infected group, leading to the increased expressions of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and TNF-α in the downstream NF-κB signalling pathway.5. Palmatine significantly up-regulated the levels of MDA5, MAVS, IRF7, IFN-α and IFN-β in the IRF7 pathway, inducing type I interferon production. It up-regulated the expression of 2'5'-oligoadenylate synthase (OAS) in the JAK-STAT pathway.6. IBV infection induced cell apoptosis and palmatine-treatment delayed the process of apoptosis by regulation of the expression of apoptosis-related genes (BAX, BCL-2, CASPASE-3 and CASPASE-8).7. Palmatine could exert anti-IBV activity through regulation of NF-κB/IRF7/JAK-STAT signalling pathways and apoptosis, providing a theoretical basis for the utilisation of palmatine to treat IBV infection.

Abstract
According to the concept of "united airway diseases", the airway is a single organ in which upper and lower airway diseases are commonly comorbid. A range of inflammatory factors have been found to play an important role in the chain reaction of upper and lower airway diseases. However, the amount of research on this concept remains limited. The underlying mechanism of the relationship between typical diseases of the united airway, such as asthma, allergic rhinitis, and chronic sinusitis, also needs to be further explored. This review highlights the interaction between upper and lower respiratory diseases gathered from epidemiological, histoembryology, neural mechanistic, microbiological, and clinical studies, revealing the relationship between the upper and lower respiratory tracts.

Abstract
Previous studies have indicated that transmembrane protein 16A (TMEM16A) plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis and progression of various tumors by influencing multiple signaling pathways. However, the role of TMEM16A in regulating autophagy via the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway and its impact on the development of hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HSCC) remain unclear. Immunohistochemistry and western blotting were used to assess the expression of TMEM16A in HSCC tissues and metastatic lymph nodes. Manipulation of TMEM16A expression levels was achieved in the FaDu cell line through overexpression or knockdown, followed by assessment of its biological effects using cell colony formation, wound healing, transwell, and invasion assays. Additionally, apoptosis and autophagy-related proteins, as well as autophagosome formation, were evaluated through western blotting, transmission electron microscopy, and immunofluorescence following TMEM16A knockdown or overexpression in FaDu cells. Our study revealed significantly elevated levels of TMEM16A in both HSCC tissues and metastatic lymph nodes compared to normal tissues. In vitro experiments demonstrated that silencing TMEM16A led to a notable suppression of HSCC cell proliferation, invasion, and migration. Furthermore, TMEM16A silencing effectively inhibited tumor growth in xenografted mice. Subsequent investigations indicated that knockdown of TMEM16A in HSCC cells could suppress mTOR activation, thereby triggering autophagic cell death by upregulating sequestosome-1 (SQSTM1/P62) and microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 II (LC3II). This study highlights the crucial role of TMEM16A in modulating autophagy in HSCC, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target for the treatment of this malignancy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Establish an in situ model for investigating HNSCC, focusing on tumor growth, metastasis, and the immune microenvironment. METHODS Generated a monoclonal SCCVII-ZsGreen cell line through lentiviral transfection. Selected monoclonal lines with growth rates similar to the original SCCVII for in vivo tumorigenesis. Monitored tumor development and metastasis through fluorescence in vivo imaging. Employed immunohistochemistry to assess immune cell distribution in the tumor microenvironment. RESULTS SCCVII-ZsGreen exhibited comparable proliferation and in vivo tumorigenicity to SCCVII. In situ tumor formation on day 10, with cervical metastasis in C57BL/6 mice by day 16. No significant fluorescence signals in organs like liver and lungs, while SCCVII-ZsGreen presence confirmed in cervical lymph node metastases. Immunohistochemistry revealed CD4+ T, CD8+ T, B, and dendritic cells distribution, with minimal macrophages. CONCLUSION Our model is a valuable tool for studying HNSCC occurrence, metastasis, and immune microenvironment. It allows dynamic observation of tumor development, aids preclinical drug experiments, and facilitates exploration of the tumor immune contexture.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the cutoff value for assessing small airway dysfunction in children with asthma. Methods: A total of 364 asthmatic children aged 5 to 14 years, with normal ventilatory function, followed up at the Asthma Clinic of the Children's Hospital of Capital Institute of Pediatrics from January 2017 to January 2018, were selected as the case group. Concurrently, 403 healthy children of the same age range and without any symptoms in the community were chosen as the control group, and pulmonary function tests were conducted. The values of forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory flow at 50% of FVC (FEF50), forced expiratory flow at 75% of FVC (FEF75) and maximum mid-expiratory flow (MMEF) were compared between case group and control group. Statistical tests such as t-test, χ2 test, or Mann-Whitney U test were used to analyze the differences between the groups. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed, and the maximum Youden Index was utilized to determine the optimal cutoff values and thresholds for identifying small airway dysfunction in asthmatic children. Results: This study comprised 364 children in the case group (220 boys and 144 girls) and 403 children in the control group (198 boys and 205 girls). The small airway parameters (FEF50%pred, FEF75%pred, MMEF%pred) in the asthmatic group were significantly lower than in the control group (77% (69%, 91%) vs. 95% (83%, 109%), 67% (54%, 82%) vs. 84% (70%, 102%), 76% (66%, 90%) vs. 97% (86%, 113%), Z=12.03, 11.35, 13.66, all P<0.001). The ROC curve area under the curve for FEF50%pred, FEF75%pred, MMEF%pred was 0.75, 0.74, and 0.79, respectively. Using a cutoff value of 80% for FEF50%pred achieved a sensitivity of 56.9% and specificity of 81.4%. A cutoff value of 74% for FEF75%pred resulted in a sensitivity of 67.3% and specificity of 69.2%. Finally, using a cutoff value of 84% for MMEF%pred achieved a sensitivity of 67.9% and specificity of 77.2%. Conclusion: In the presence of normal ventilatory function, utilizing FEF50<80% predicted or MMEF<84% predicted can accurately serve as criteria for identifying small airway dysfunction in children with controlled asthma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The technical difficulties and trauma of remote access methods in endoscopic surgery (ES) for lateral neck dissection (LND) can be daunting for most patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and surgeons. The purpose of study was to introduce gasless single-incision ES via a subclavicular approach (ESSA) and to explore its safety and efficacy for LND. METHODS Between January 2022 and February 2023, we retrospectively reviewed 17 patients with PTC who underwent ESSA for LND. In addition, 22 patients who received video-assisted ES (VAES) and 48 patients who underwent open surgery (OP) for LND during the same period were included. Clinicopathological characteristics, complications, and efficacy of the lymph node yield (LNY) were compared between the ESSA and the other two groups (VAES and OP). RESULTS The LNY from central and lateral neck dissection by ESSA was comparable to that by VAES (9.2 ± 8.1 vs. 9.5 ± 4.2, P = 0.986, and 33.5 ± 11.6 vs. 30.6 ± 9.2, P = 0.382, respectively) and OP (9.2 ± 8.1 vs. 11.0 ± 5.4, P = 0.420, and 33.5 ± 11.6 vs. 31.5 ± 7.9, P = 0.383, respectively). Swallowing impairment scores at 1 and 3 months were significantly lower after ESSA than those after VAES (1.8 ± 1.0 vs. 3.0 ± 1.2, P = 0.003, and 0.9 ± 0.8 vs. 1.7 ± 0.8, P = 0.006, respectively). The cosmetic satisfaction rate 1 month after surgery was significantly higher in the ESSA group than that in the VAES group (100 vs. 31.8%, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS ESSA is a safe and minimally invasive procedure that provides a scarless cervical appearance and has good efficacy for LND. Therefore, ESSA may be a feasible choice for selected patients with N1b PTC with cervical cosmetic needs.

Abstract
Background There is no trial to assess the benefits of periodically using biologics during the pollen season in patients with uncontrolled seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR), who have moderate-to-severe symptoms even after standard-of-care. This trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the add-on administration of stapokibart, a humanised monoclonal antibody that targets interleukin-4 receptor alpha, in patients with uncontrolled SAR. Methods In this investigator-initiated, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, eligible patients received either stapokibart 600-300 mg weekly (QW), every 2 weeks (Q2W), or placebo QW for 4 weeks. All patients were given mometasone furoate nasal spray and loratadine throughout the trial. The primary endpoint was the mean change from baseline in daily reflective total nasal symptom score (rTNSS) during 2-week treatment. Secondary efficacy outcomes included: the mean change from baseline in daily rTNSS during 4-week treatment; the mean changes and the mean percentage changes from baseline during 2-week and 4-week treatment in 1) daily rTNSS and reflective total ocular symptom score (rTOSS), 2) morning (AM)/evening (PM) rTNSS and rTOSS, 3) AM instantaneous total nasal symptom score (iTNSS) and instantaneous total ocular symptom score (iTOSS), 4) individual nasal and ocular symptoms; the change from baseline in Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of-Life Questionnaire score during 4-week treatment. Exploratory endpoints included the change of prespecified markers related to type 2 inflammation pre- and post-treatment. Safety, immunogenicity, and pharmacokinetics were also evaluated. This study is registered with www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05470647). Findings Between August 17, 2022, and December 28, 2022, 92 patients with uncontrolled SAR were enrolled from 4 centres in China and randomly assigned to receive stapokibart 600-300 mg QW (n = 31), stapokibart 600-300 mg Q2W (n = 30), or placebo QW (n = 31), of whom 86 (93%) completed the study. Both stapokibart Q2W and QW did not significantly improve mean change from baseline in daily rTNSS compared with placebo in 2 weeks. The least-squares (LS) mean differences (97.5% confidence interval [CI]) compared with placebo were -1.0 (-2.3, 0.2) in stapokibart Q2W group (p = 0.065) and -0.2 (-1.5, 1.0) in stapokibart QW group (p = 0.67). For the secondary outcomes, compared with placebo, stapokibart Q2W presented significant improvements in the mean percentage change from baseline in daily rTNSS in 2 weeks (LS mean difference -12.9%, 95% CI -25.3%, -0.4%, p = 0.043), as well as AM iTNSS over 2 weeks (LS mean difference -17.4%, 95% CI -31.0%, -3.8%, p = 0.013) and 4 weeks (LS mean difference -15.4%, 95% CI -29.0%, -1.9%, p = 0.026). Additionally, the nasal congestion score was significantly lower in stapokibart Q2W than placebo during 2-week (LS mean difference -0.4, 95% CI -0.7, -0.1, p = 0.014) and 4-week (LS mean difference -0.4, 95% CI -0.7, -0.04, p = 0.028) treatment. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) occurred in 48% (15/31), 33% (10/30), and 61% (19/31) of patients receiving stapokibart QW, Q2W, and placebo, respectively. Most reported TEAEs were sinus bradycardia, hyperlipidaemia, and blood uric acid increased. Interpretation In this phase 2 trial, both stapokibart regimens had an acceptable safety and tolerability profile but did not significantly improve daily rTNSS in patients with uncontrolled SAR. The efficacy of stapokibart in patients with uncontrolled SAR is being further investigated in ongoing phase 3 trials (clinicaltrials.gov, NCT05908032).

Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore the role and mechanism of the olfactory bulb (OB) microglial P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) in allergic rhinitis (AR)-related depression, with the objective of identifying a potential clinical target. An AR mouse model was induced using ovalbumin (OVA), while chronic stress was employed to induce depression. The study used P2X7R-specific antagonists and OB microglia-specific P2X7R knockdown mice as crucial tools. The results showed that mice in the OVA + stress group exhibited more pronounced depressive-like phenotypes. Furthermore, there was an observed increase in microglial activation in the OB, followed by a rise in the level of inflammation. The pharmacological inhibition of P2X7R significantly mitigated the depression-like phenotype and the OB inflammatory response in OVA + stress mice. Notably, the specific knockdown of microglial P2X7R in the OB resulted in a similar effect, possibly linked to the regulation of IL-1β via the "ATP-P2X7R-Caspase 1" axis. These findings collectively demonstrate that microglial P2X7R in the OB acts as a direct effector molecule in AR-related depression, and its inhibition may offer a novel strategy for clinical prevention and treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study is to study the in-vitro effects of multitarget inhibitor anlotinib on hypopharyngeal cancer cell proliferation and cell migration, and the underlying mechanism, which will provide new drug choices for hypopharyngeal cancer treatment. METHODS The Hypopharyngeal cancer Fadu cells were treated with anlotinib at a concentration of 0, 5, and 10 μmoL/L, respectively. Cell counting kit-8 and the colony-forming assay were used to detect the inhibition of cell proliferation. Wound-healing assay and transwell assay were used to detect the migration and invasion ability of cells. Flow cytometry was used to detect the effects of anlotinib on cell cycle and apoptosis. RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to measure gene expression levels. RESULTS CCK-8 and colony-forming assay showed that anlotinib could significantly inhibit cell proliferative activity. Wound-healing assay and transwell assay showed that anlotinib could inhibit cell migration and scratch. These results showed that anlotinib has obvious antitumor activity. Flow cell cycle experiment showed that anlotinib could promote Fadu cell apoptosis and block the G2/M phase for inhibiting cell proliferation. In addition, anlotinib decreased the expression of HIF-1α. CONCLUSIONS Anlotinib has an excellent suppressing effect on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of hypopharyngeal cancer Fadu cells in-vitro. Moreover, it can play an anti-tumor role through blocking cell cycle G2/M and promoting apoptosis, which may be related to the decrease of HIF-1a expression. Our study would provide a potential treatment method for patients with hypopharyngeal cancer. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level 3.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) with comorbid asthma remains unclear. OBJECTIVE To assess upper and lower airway unity and identify a possible common pathogenesis in CRSwNP with asthma. METHODS This study analyzed the expression of proteins and metabolites in nasal lavage fluid cells (NLFCs) and induced sputum cells (ISCs). Differentially expressed proteins and their function-related metabolites in the upper and lower airways of patients having CRSwNP with or without asthma were identified; relevant signaling pathways were analyzed, and key pathway-related proteins were identified. Parallel reaction monitoring was used to verify these target proteins. RESULTS Protein or metabolite expression between NLFCs and ISCs was highly correlated and conservative on the basis of expression profiles and weighted gene coexpression network analysis. There were 17 differentially coexpressed proteins and their function-related 13 metabolites that were identified in the NLFCs and ISCs of CRSwNP, whereas 11 proteins and 11 metabolites were identified in CRSwNP with asthma. An asthma pathway was involved in the copathogenesis of upper and lower airways in whether CRSwNP or CRSwNP with asthma. The asthma pathway-related proteins proteoglycan 2 and eosinophil peroxidase, as the core of the protein-metabolism interaction networks between the upper and lower airways, were both highly coexpressed in NLFCs and ISCs in patients having either CRSwNP or CRSwNP with asthma by parallel reaction monitoring validation. CONCLUSION Proteomics and metabolomics reveal upper and lower airway unity. Asthma pathway-related proteins proteoglycan 2 and eosinophil peroxidase from the upper airway could be used to assess the potential risk of lower airway dysfunction in CRSwNP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intrathecal pemetrexed (IP) for treating patients with leptomeningeal metastases (LM) from non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who progressed from epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment in an expanded, prospective, single-arm, phase II clinical study (ChiCTR1800016615). PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with confirmed NSCLC-LM who progressed from TKI received IP (50 mg, day 1/day 5 for 1 week, then every 3 weeks for four cycles, and then once monthly) until disease progression or intolerance. Objectives were to assess overall survival (OS), response rate, and safety. Measurable lesions were assessed by investigator according to RECIST version 1.1. LM were assessed according to the Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria. RESULTS The study included 132 patients; 68% were female and median age was 52 years (31-74 years). The median OS was 12 months (95% confidence interval 10.4-13.6 months), RANO-assessed response rate was 80.3% (106/132), and the most common adverse event was myelosuppression (n = 42; 31.8%), which reversed after symptomatic treatment. The results of subgroup analysis showed that absence of brain parenchymal metastasis, good Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group score, good response to IP treatment, negative cytology after treatment, and patients without neck/back pain/difficult defecation had longer survival. Gender, age, previous intrathecal methotrexate/cytarabine, and whole-brain radiotherapy had no significant influence on OS. CONCLUSIONS This study further showed that IP is an effective and safe treatment method for the EGFR-TKI-failed NSCLC-LM, and should be recommended for these patients in clinical practice and guidelines.

Abstract
The Fscn2 (Fascin2) gene encodes an actin cross-linking protein that is involved in the formation of hair cell stereocilia and retina structure. Mutations in Fscn2 gene have been linked to hearing impairment and retinal degeneration in humans and mice. To understand the function of the Fscn2 gene, we generated the Fscn2 knockout mice, which showed progressive loss of hearing and hair cells. Our goal of the present study was to investigate the mechanism underlying cochlear cell death in the Fscn2 knockout mice. Microarray analysis revealed upregulation of expression of PARVB, a local adhesion protein, in the inner ears of Fscn2 knockout mice at 8 weeks of age. Further studies showed increased levels of PARVB together with cleaved-Caspase9 and decreased levels of ILK, p-ILK, p-AKT, and Bcl-2 in the inner ears of Fscn2 knockout mice of the same age. Knockdown of Fscn2 in HEI-OCI cells led to decreased cell proliferation ability and migration rate, along with increased levels of PARVB and decreased levels of ILK, p-ILK, p-AKT, Bcl-2 and activated Rac1 and Cdc42. Overexpression of Fscn2 or inhibition of Parvb expression in HEI-OC1 cells promoted cell proliferation and migration, with increased levels of ILK, p-ILK, p-AKT, and Bcl-2. Finally, FSCN2 binds with PPAR-γ to reduce its nuclear translocation in HEI-OC1 cells, and inhibition of PPAR-γ by GW9662 decreased the level of PARVB and increased the levels of p-AKT, p-ILK, and Bcl-2. Our results suggest that FSCN2 negatively regulates PARVB expression by inhibiting the entry of PPAR-γ into the cell nucleus, resulting in inhibition of ILK-AKT related pathways and of cochlear cell survival in Fscn2 knockout mice. Our findings provide new insights and ideas for the prevention and treatment of genetic hearing loss.

Abstract
We present the requirements, design, and evaluation of the cryogenic continuously rotating half-wave plate (CHWP) for the Simons Observatory (SO). SO is a cosmic microwave background polarization experiment at Parque Astronómico de Atacama in northern Chile that covers a wide range of angular scales using both small (⌀0.42 m) and large (⌀6 m) aperture telescopes. In particular, the small aperture telescopes (SATs) focus on large angular scales for primordial B-mode polarization. To this end, the SATs employ a CHWP to modulate the polarization of the incident light at 8 Hz, suppressing atmospheric 1/f noise and mitigating systematic uncertainties that would otherwise arise due to the differential response of detectors sensitive to orthogonal polarizations. The CHWP consists of a 505 mm diameter achromatic sapphire HWP and a cryogenic rotation mechanism, both of which are cooled down to ∼50 K to reduce detector thermal loading. Under normal operation, the HWP is suspended by a superconducting magnetic bearing and rotates with a constant 2 Hz frequency, controlled by an electromagnetic synchronous motor. We find that the number of superconductors and the number of magnets that make up the superconducting magnetic bearing are important design parameters, especially for the rotation mechanism's vibration performance. The rotation angle is detected through an angular encoder with a noise level of 0.07 μrad s. During a cooldown process, the rotor is held in place by a grip-and-release mechanism that serves as both an alignment device and a thermal path. In this paper, we provide an overview of the SO SAT CHWP: its requirements, hardware design, and laboratory performance.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the association between pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) attenuation (PCATA) and outcomes of chronic total occlusion (CTO) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and to establish a clinical model that can be easily generalised to predict the outcomes of PCI-CTO. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between September 2015 and September 2019, patients from two centres were enrolled retrospectively. The primary endpoint was a procedural success (defined as achieving residual stenosis of <30% and a grade 3 thrombolysis in myocardial infarction [TIMI] flow). The new predictive model was generated by factors that were determined by multivariate analysis. The PCATA of CTO (PCATA-CTO) score was developed by assigning 1 point for each independent predictor, and then summing all points accrued. In addition, the predictive efficacy and interobserver and intraobserver agreement of PCATA-CTO and other scoring systems based on coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) were compared. RESULTS A total of 201 patients (mean age 58.9 ± 10.8 years, 85% male) were enrolled. The PCI success was achieved in 76% of the lesions. PCAT was higher in the PCI success group (-72.44 ± 10.45HU versus -76.76 ± 10.54 HU, p<0.05). Multivariable analysis yielded severe calcification, lesion length ≥15 mm, and perivascular fat attenuation index (FAI) ≤-69.5HU as independent negative predictors for procedural success. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curves for the PCATA-CTO score was 0.72. Comparing the PCATA-CTO score with other predictive scores, the PCATA-CTO score showed the highest interobserver (kappa = 0.74) and intraobserver agreement (kappa = 0.90, all p<0.01). CONCLUSION FAI ≤-69.5HU is an independent negative predictor of procedural success. The PCATA-CTO score improved the reliability of the prediction model. Its potential for clinical implementation requires evaluation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Organoids are three-dimensional cellular aggregates derived from stem cells or primary tissues that can self-organize into organotypic structures and showcase the physiological functions of that organ. Organoids typically comprise multiple organ-specific cell types that are responsible for organ function in vivo. They may also incorporate various cellular and molecular stromal components to recapitulate the in vivo microenvironment of the target organ. METHODS All articles related to thyroid-like organs were synthesized. Articles published between 1959 and 2023 were assessed, categorized, and analyzed using relevant keywords. RESULTS As such, organoids provide a model of greater physiological relevance than 2D cell culture for basic and translational research. Murine and human organoids of the thyroid have been established from embryonic stem cells (ESCs), pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) and from various healthy or diseased thyroid tissues. These thyroid organoids have been used in basic and translation research on thyroid-related diseases including hyperthyroidism, Graves' disease, and Hashimoto's thyroiditis. In addition, organoids derived from patients with thyroid cancer retain histopathological features and mutational profile of the original tumor. These patient-derived organoids have been successfully used in in vitro evaluation of drug response of individual patients, demonstrating their potential application in personalized treatment of thyroid cancer. CONCLUSION In this review article, we have discussed various techniques for establishing thyroid organoids and their applications in thyroid-related diseases as disease models, regenerative medicines, or a tool for drug testing.

Abstract
Cancer, ranks as the secondary cause of death, is a group of diseases that are characterized by uncontrolled tumor growth and distant metastasis, leading to increased mortality year-on-year. To date, targeted therapy to intercept the aberrant proliferation and invasion is crucial for clinical anticancer treatment, however, mutant expression of target genes often leads to drug resistance. Therefore, it is essential to identify more molecules that can be targeted to facilitate combined therapy. Previous studies showed that death associated protein 3 (DAP3) exerts a pivotal role in regulating apoptosis signaling of tumors, meanwhile, aberrant DAP3 expression is associated with the tumorigenesis and disease progression of various cancers. This review provides an overview of the molecule structure of DAP3 and the discrepant roles played by DAP3 in various types of tumors. Considering the molecular mechanism of DAP3-regulated cancer development, new potential treatment strategies might be developed in the future.

Abstract
Objective: To understand the use of post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) and analyze related factors among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Qingdao, and provide a reference for the AIDS prevention and control in this population. Methods: A cross-sectional survey conducted from April 2022 to February 2023. Relying on MSM social groups in Qingdao, a snowball sampling method was applied to recruit research subjects who met the inclusion criteria of age ≥18 years old, having had homosexual anal or oral sex in the past six months, and HIV-negative or infection status unknown. The sample size was estimated at 566. Data on demographic characteristics, sexual behavior characteristics, PEP use, and others of the research subjects was collected through on-site questionnaires. The logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors associated with using PEP. Results: A total of 811 participants were recruited, mainly aged 25-34 (53.6%, 435/811), unmarried (74.7%, 606/811), with an average monthly income of ≥5 000 yuan (52.2%, 423/811), and having lived in Qingdao for ≥10 years (75.6%, 613/811). The proportion of those who knew the HIV status of their sexual partners in the last six months was 67.1% (544/811), and those with HIV-positive partners were 3.6% (29/811). In the last six months, the proportion of participants who had group sex (86.4%, 701/811), unprotected anal sex (98.2%, 796/811), and use of club drugs (80.3%, 651/811) was high. Moreover, 28.4% (230/811) had used PEP. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the factors related to the use of PEP included divorced or widowed (aOR=5.46,95%CI:1.96-15.17), average monthly income ≥5 000 yuan (aOR=2.04,95%CI:1.44-2.89), same-sex sexual orientation (aOR=0.40,95%CI:0.22-0.71), having HIV-positive sexual partners in the last six months (aOR=2.54,95%CI:1.13-5.71) and having been tested for HIV ≥3 times in the last six months (aOR=1.46,95%CI:1.04-2.06). Conclusions: The prevalence of risk behaviors among MSM in Qingdao was high, and the use of PEP was low. In the future, it is essential to increase HIV/AIDS prevention education among MSM, promote MSM to know the HIV status of their sexual partners, and reduce the prevalence of risk behaviors among this population. Additionally, explore medical insurance reimbursement plans for PEP to reduce utilization costs and promote the use of PEP by MSM after HIV exposure occurs as soon as possible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is usually accompanied by mucin hypersecretion that can lead to mucus accumulation and impair nasal mucociliary clearance, thus exacerbating airway inflammation. Abnormal mucin hypersecretion is regulated by different T helper (Th) cytokines, which are associated with different endotype-driven inflammatory responses. Therefore, it is of great significance to understand how these factors regulate mucin hypersecretion to provide precise treatment strategies for different endotypes of CRS. BODY: Thus far, the most common endotypes of CRS are classified as type 1, type 2, or type 3 immune responses based on innate and adaptive cell-mediated effector immunity, and the representative Th cytokines in these immune responses, such as IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, IL-10, IL-17, and IL-22, play an important regulatory role in mucin secretion. We reviewed all the related literature in the PubMed database to determine the expression of these Th cytokines in CRS and the role they play in the regulation of mucin secretion. CONCLUSION We believe that the main Th cytokines involved in specific endotypes of CRS play a key role in regulating abnormal mucin secretion, which contributes to better understanding of the pathogenesis of CRS and provides therapeutic targets for airway inflammatory diseases associated with mucin hypersecretion.

Abstract
Necroptosis is generally considered as an inflammatory cell death form. The core regulators of necroptotic signaling are receptor-interacting serine-threonine protein kinases 1 (RIPK1) and RIPK3, and the executioner, mixed lineage kinase domain-like pseudokinase (MLKL). Evidence demonstrates that necroptosis contributes profoundly to inflammatory respiratory diseases that are common public health problem. Necroptosis occurs in nearly all pulmonary cell types in the settings of inflammatory respiratory diseases. The influence of necroptosis on cells varies depending upon the type of cells, tissues, organs, etc., which is an important factor to consider. Thus, in this review, we briefly summarize the current state of knowledge regarding the biology of necroptosis, and focus on the key molecular mechanisms that define the necroptosis status of specific cell types in inflammatory respiratory diseases. We also discuss the clinical potential of small molecular inhibitors of necroptosis in treating inflammatory respiratory diseases, and describe the pathological processes that engage cross talk between necroptosis and other cell death pathways in the context of respiratory inflammation. The rapid advancement of single-cell technologies will help understand the key mechanisms underlying cell type-specific necroptosis that are critical to effectively treat pathogenic lung infections and inflammatory respiratory diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The widespread use of aminoglycosides is a prevalent cause of sensorineural hearing loss. Patients receiving aminoglycosides usually have elevated levels of circulating stress hormones due to disease or physiological stress; however, whether the stress hormone cortisol impacts aminoglycoside-mediated injury of cochlear hair cells has not been fully investigated. METHODS House Ear Institute-Organ of Corti 1 (HEI-OC1) cells with or without cortisol pretreatment were exposed to gentamicin, we investigated the effect of cortisol pretreatment on gentamicin ototoxicity by assessing cell viability. Molecular pathogenesis was explored by detecting apoptosis and oxidative stress. Meanwhile, by inhibiting glucocorticoid receptors (GR) and mineralocorticoid receptors (MR), the potential roles of receptor types in cortisol-mediated sensitization were evaluated. RESULTS Cortisol concentrations below 75 μmol/l did not affect cell viability. However, pretreatment with 50 μmol/l cortisol for 24 hours sensitized hair cells to gentamicin-induced apoptosis. Further mechanistic studies revealed that cortisol significantly increased hair cell apoptosis and oxidative stress, and altered apoptosis-related protein expressions induced by gentamicin. In addition, blockade of either GR or MR attenuated cortisol-induced hair cell sensitization to gentamicin toxicity. CONCLUSION Cortisol pretreatment increased mammalian hair cell susceptibility to gentamicin toxicity. Sensitization was related to the activation of the intrinsic apoptotic pathway and excessive generation of reactive oxygen species. Cortisol may exacerbate aminoglycoside ototoxicity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
The human microbiota is symbiotic with the host and can create a variety of metabolites. Under normal conditions, microbial metabolites can regulate host immune function and eliminate abnormal cells in a timely manner. However, when metabolite production is abnormal, the host immune system might be unable to identify and get rid of tumor cells at the early stage of carcinogenesis, which results in tumor development. The mechanisms by which intestinal microbial metabolites, including short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), microbial tryptophan catabolites (MTCs), polyamines (PAs), hydrogen sulfide, and secondary bile acids, are involved in tumorigenesis and development by regulating immune responses are summarized in this review. SCFAs and MTCs can prevent cancer by altering the expression of enzymes and epigenetic modifications in both immune cells and intestinal epithelial cells. MTCs can also stimulate immune cell receptors to inhibit the growth and metastasis of the host cancer. SCFAs, MTCs, bacterial hydrogen sulfide and secondary bile acids can control mucosal immunity to influence the occurrence and growth of tumors. Additionally, SCFAs, MTCs, PAs and bacterial hydrogen sulfide can also affect the anti-tumor immune response in tumor therapy by regulating the function of immune cells. Microbial metabolites have a good application prospect in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of tumors, and our review provides a good basis for related research.

Abstract
Degenerative diseases affect people's life and health and cause a severe social burden. Relevant mechanisms of microglia have been studied, aiming to control and reduce degenerative disease occurrence effectively. This review discussed the specific mechanisms underlying microglia in neurodegenerative diseases, age-related hearing loss, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and peripheral nervous system (PNS) degenerative diseases. It also reviewed the studies of microglia inhibitors (PLX3397/PLX5622) and activators (lipopolysaccharide), and suggested that reducing microglia can effectively curb the genesis and progression of degenerative diseases. Finally, microglial cells' anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory dual role was considered the critical communication point in central and peripheral degenerative diseases. Although it is difficult to describe the complex morphological structure of microglia in a unified manner, this does not prevent them from being a target for future treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Objective: To understand and analyze the incidence of HIV infection in club drug abusers among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Qingdao and provide a reference for the prevention and intervention of this population. Methods: From March 2017 to July 2022, club drug abusers among MSM who are HIV-negative were recruited by snowball sampling of MSM social organizations in Qingdao, a prospective cohort was established, and a follow-up survey was conducted every six months, with the sample size estimated to be 436. The survey contents included demographic characteristics, sexual characteristics, AIDS knowledge awareness, club drug abuse, HIV testing, and other information. HIV infection was the outcome-dependent variable, and the interval between the recruitment into the cohort and the HIV infection was the time-dependent variable. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was conducted to identify the related factors for HIV infection. Results: A total of 987 participants of club drug abusers among MSM were recruited during the baseline survey and 826 eligible participants were enrolled in this cohort. A total of 46 HIV infection cases were found, and the cumulative follow-up time was 1 960.68 person-years. The incidence of HIV infection was 2.35/100 person-years. The multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that <30 (aHR=3.04, 95%CI: 1.62-5.71) non-Shandong residents (aHR=2.29,95%CI:1.20-4.39) found their partners through offline (aHR=4.62,95%CI:2.05-10.41), homosexual sexual partners >4 (aHR=3.06,95%CI:1.59-5.88), condom broken during sex (aHR=2.24,95%CI:1.21-4.17) and hemorrhage sexual intercourse (aHR=2.56,95%CI:1.31-5.03) were significantly associated with HIV infection in this cohort. Conclusions: The incidence of HIV infection in club drug abusers among MSM in Qingdao is generally low, but knowledge and practice have separated, and the risk of HIV infection is high. The related factors of HIV infection included younger age, non-Shandong residents, finding their partners offline, multiple sexual partners, condom break during sex, and hemorrhage sexual intercourse; HIV-related behavioral intervention should be strengthened.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES This study is based on multicenter cohorts and aims to utilize computed tomography (CT) images to construct a radiomics nomogram for predicting the lateral neck lymph node (LNLN) metastasis in the papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and further explore the biological basis under its prediction. MATERIALS AND METHODS In the multicenter study, 1213 lymph nodes from 409 patients with PTC who underwent CT examinations and received open surgery and lateral neck dissection were included. A prospective test cohort was used in validating the model. Radiomics features were extracted from the CT images of each patient's LNLNs. Selectkbest, maximum relevance and minimum redundancy and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm were used in reducing the dimensionality of radiomics features in the training cohort. Then, a radiomics signature (Rad-score) was calculated as the sum of each feature multiplied by the nonzero coefficient from LASSO. A nomogram was generated using the clinical risk factors of the patients and Rad-score. The nomograms' performance was analyzed in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, confusion matrix, receiver operating characteristic curves, and areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUCs). The clinical usefulness of the nomogram was evaluated by decision curve analysis. Moreover, three radiologists with different working experiences and nomogram were compared to one another. Whole transcriptomics sequencing was performed in 14 tumor samples; the correlation of biological functions and high and low LNLN samples predicted by the nomogram was further investigated. RESULTS A total of 29 radiomics features were used in constructing the Rad-score. Rad-score and clinical risk factors (age, tumor diameter, location and number of suspected tumors) compose the nomogram. The nomogram exhibited good discrimination performance of the nomogram for predicting LNLN metastasis in the training cohort (AUC, 0.866), internal test cohort (0.845), external test cohort (0.725), and prospective test cohort (0.808) and showed diagnostic capability comparable to senior radiologists, significantly outperforming junior radiologists (p < 0.05). Functional enrichment analysis suggested that the nomogram can reflect the ribosome-related structures of cytoplasmic translation in patients with PTC. CONCLUSION Our radiomics nomogram provides a noninvasive method that incorporates radiomics features and clinical risk factors for predicting LNLN metastasis in patients with PTC.

Abstract
Use of montelukast, as a cause of neuropsychiatric events, in patients with asthma or allergic rhinitis is controversial, and comprehensive statistical analyses verifying this relationship remain lacking. To better understand the relationship between montelukast and neuropsychiatric events, it is vital to guide patients in the effective use of the drug, especially in children whose mothers are concerned about its side effects. In this study, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating montelukast and neuropsychiatric events were retrieved from a literature search of the Medline (1966 to February 2023), Embase (1974 to February 2023), Web of Science, and other related databases. After screening, 18 RCTs were ultimately included in a meta-analysis to merge statistics, which demonstrated no significant increase in neuropsychiatric events compared with placebo. A similar pattern of adverse neuropsychiatric events was observed in patients grouped according to age, with headache being the most common adverse neuropsychiatric event. Overall, montelukast did not significantly increase neuropsychiatric events in patients with allergic rhinitis and/or asthma compared with placebo. Large-sample RCTs are needed to verify the association between neuropsychiatric events and montelukast use in children, and attention is also devoted to FDA warnings.

Abstract
Background Radiotherapy is an effective treatment for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), however how to predict the prognosis is not clear. Methods Here we collected 262 radiosensitivity-associated genes, screened and constructed a prognostic nine-gene risk model through univariate COX, lasso regression, stepwise regression and multivariate COX analysis for transcriptome and clinical information of HNSCC patients obtained from the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) and gene expression omnibus (GEO) databases. Results The reliability and robustness of the risk model were verified by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, risk maps, and Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves analysis. Differences in immune cell infiltration and immune-related pathway enrichment between high-risk and low-risk subgroups were determined by multiple immune infiltration analyses. Meanwhile, the mutation map and the responses to immunotherapy were also differentiated by the prognostic nine-gene signature associated with radiosensitivity. These nine genes expression in HNSCC was verified in the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) database. After that, these nine genes expression was verified to be related to radiation resistance through in-vitro cell experiments. Conclusions All results showed that the nine-gene signature associated with radiosensitivity is a potential prognostic indicator for HNSCC patients after radiotherapy and provides potential gene targets for enhancing the efficacy of radiotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative evaluation of the metastasis status of lateral lymph nodes (LNs) in papillary thyroid cancer is challenging. Strategies for using deep learning to diagnosis of lateral LN metastasis require additional development and testing. This study aimed to build a deep learning-based model to distinguish benign lateral LNs from metastatic lateral LNs in papillary thyroid cancer and test the model's diagnostic performance in a real-world clinical setting. METHODS This was a prospective diagnostic study. An ensemble model integrating a three-dimensional residual network algorithm with clinical risk factors available before surgery was developed based on computed tomography images of lateral LNs in an internal dataset and validated in two external datasets. The diagnostic performance of the ensemble model was tested and compared with the results of fine-needle aspiration (FNA) (used as the standard reference method) and the diagnoses made by two senior radiologists in 113 suspicious lateral LNs in patients enrolled prospectively. RESULTS The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the ensemble model for diagnosing suspicious lateral LNs was 0.829 (95% CI: 0.732-0.927). The sensitivity and specificity of the ensemble model were 0.839 (95% CI: 0.762-0.916) and 0.769 (95% CI: 0.607-0.931), respectively. The diagnostic accuracy of the ensemble model was 82.3%. With FNA results as the criterion standard, the ensemble model had excellent diagnostic performance ( P =0.115), similar to that of the two senior radiologists ( P =1.000 and P =0.392, respectively). CONCLUSION A three-dimensional residual network-based ensemble model was successfully developed for the diagnostic assessment of suspicious lateral LNs and achieved diagnostic performance similar to that of FNA and senior radiologists. The model appears promising for clinical application.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To develop an artificial intelligence (AI) system for predicting cervical lymph node metastasis (CLNM) preoperatively in patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) based on CT images. METHODS This multicenter retrospective study included the preoperative CT of PTC patients who were divided into the development, internal, and external test sets. The region of interest of the primary tumor was outlined manually on the CT images by a radiologist who has eight years of experience. With the use of the CT images and lesions masks, the deep learning (DL) signature was developed by the DenseNet combined with convolutional block attention module. One-way analysis of variance and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator were used to select features, and a support vector machine was used to construct the radiomics signature. Random forest was used to combine the DL, radiomics, and clinical signature to perform the final prediction. The receiver operating characteristic curve, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were used by two radiologists (R1 and R2) to evaluate and compare the AI system. RESULTS For the internal and external test set, the AI system achieved excellent performance with AUCs of 0.84 and 0.81, higher than the DL (p = .03, .82), radiomics (p < .001, .04), and clinical model (p < .001, .006). With the aid of the AI system, the specificities of radiologists were improved by 9% and 15% for R1 and 13% and 9% for R2, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The AI system can help predict CLNM in patients with PTC, and the radiologists' performance improved with AI assistance. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT This study developed an AI system for preoperative prediction of CLNM in PTC patients based on CT images, and the radiologists' performance improved with AI assistance, which could improve the effectiveness of individual clinical decision-making. KEY POINTS • This multicenter retrospective study showed that the preoperative CT image-based AI system has the potential for predicting the CLNM of PTC. • The AI system was superior to the radiomics and clinical model in predicting the CLNM of PTC. • The radiologists' diagnostic performance improved when they received the AI system assistance.

Abstract
Both environmental and genetic factors contribute to the etiology of autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) including Graves' disease (GD) and Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT). However, the exact pathogenesis and interactions that occur between environmental factors and genes remain unclear, and therapeutic targets require further investigation due to limited therapeutic options. To solve such problems, this study utilized single-cell transcriptome, whole transcriptome, full-length transcriptome (Oxford nanopore technology), and metabolome sequencing to examine thyroid lesion tissues from 2 HT patients and 2 GD patients as well as healthy thyroid tissue from 1 control subject. HT patients had increased ATF4-positive thyroid follicular epithelial (ThyFoEp) cells, which significantly increased endoplasmic reticulum stress. The enhanced sustained stress resulted in cell death mainly including apoptosis and necroptosis. The ATF4-based global gene regulatory network and experimental validation revealed that N6-methyladenosine (m6A) reader hnRNPC promoted the transcriptional activity, synthesis, and translation of ATF4 through mediating m6A modification of ATF4. Increased ATF4 expression initiated endoplasmic reticulum stress signaling, which when sustained, caused apoptosis and necroptosis in ThyFoEp cells, and mediated HT development. Targeting hnRNPC and ATF4 notably decreased ThyFoEp cell death, thus ameliorating disease progression. Collectively, this study reveals the mechanisms by which microenvironmental cells in HT and GD patients trigger and amplify the thyroid autoimmune cascade response. Furthermore, we identify new therapeutic targets for the treatment of autoimmune thyroid disease, hoping to provide a potential way for targeted therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Radiotherapy is the main treatment for esophageal cancer. Previous studies have shown that radiotherapy not only kills tumor cells directly, but also reshapes the immune microenvironment of the tumor. It has been reported an increase in the recruitment of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) can occur in tumor tissue after ionizing radiation. Exosomes are mediators of intercellular information exchange and are also involved in the regulation of the tumor microenvironment. In this study, we wanted to understand whether MDSC in esophageal cancer tissue are involved in the regulation of tumor cell response to ionizing radiation via exosomes. MATERIALS/METHODS KYSE-150 was used to construct a subcutaneous transplantation tumor model in nude mice. And then mice irradiated with 5 Gy×5fx and 0 Gy×5fx respectively. After irradiation, the spleens of the mice were used to isolate MDSC, and collect the cell supernatants to extract the exosomes. Based on the exosomes, we divided the experiment into three groups (control, exosomes, exosomes+radiation). Exosomes were injected into a nude mouse model of esophageal cancer via the tail vein or co-cultured with KYSE-150 cells. Mice were irradiated with a 5 Gy×5fx after completion of injection, and KYSE-150 cells were irradiated with a single dose 4 Gy. After radiation, KYSE-150 cells were used to detect cell cloning, apoptosis and cell cycle by flow cytometry, cell proliferation by CCK 8. XRCC4,XRCC5,XRCC6,γH2AX,ATM expression in cells and tumor tissue were measured by Western blot and RT-PCR. RESULTS The tumor volume was significantly reduced after 5 Gy x 5fx radiation. When exosomes co-cultured with KYSE-150 cells, decrease in apoptosis and increase in cell cloning and cell proliferation were found in the exosomes+radiation group and exosomes group after radiation when compared with the control group, with this change being more pronounced in the exosome+radiation group. The results of the cell cycle assay showed that after ionizing radiation, the proportion of cells in the G0/G1 phase was significantly lower, and the proportion of cells in the S and G2/M phases were significantly higher in the exosomes+radiation group and exosomes group when compared to the Control group. The protein and mRNA expression of XRCC4,XRCC5,XRCC6,γH2AX,ATM in cells were increased in exosomes+radiation group and exosomes group after radiation when compared with the control group, with this change being more obvious in the exosome+radiation group. After irradiation, tumor volumes were measured in nude mice and the results showed that exosomes+radiation group tumors were the largest in volume, while the control group regressed most significantly after irradiation. CONCLUSION MDSC-derived exosomes have a tumor growth-promoting effect in esophageal squamous carcinoma, which is enhanced by ionizing radiation, and this may be related to the accelerated repair of damage in tumor tissue after radiation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patients with Graves' orbitopathy (GO) have characteristic facial expressions that are different from those of healthy individuals due to the combination of somatic and psychiatric symptoms. However, the facial expressions of GO patients have not yet been described and analyzed systematically. Thus, the present study aimed to present the facial expressions of GO patients and explore their applications in clinical practice. METHODS Facial image and clinical data of 943 GO patients were included, and 126 patients answered quality of life (GO-QOL) questionnaires. Each patient was labeled for one facial expression. Then, a portrait was drawn for every facial expression. Logistic and linear regression was performed to analyze the correlation between facial expression and clinical indicators, including QOL, disease activity and severity. The VGG-19 network model was utilized to discriminate facial expressions automatically. RESULTS Two groups, i.e., the non-negative emotion (neutral, happy) and the negative emotion (disgust, angry, fear, sadness, surprise), and seven expressions of GO patients were systematically analyzed. Facial expression was statistically associated with GO activity (P = 0.002), severity (P < 0.001), QOL visual functioning subscale scores (P = 0.001), and QOL appearance subscale score (P = 0.012). The deep learning model achieved satisfactory results (accuracy 0.851, sensitivity 0.899, precision 0.899, specificity 0.720, F1 score 0.899, and AUC 0.847). CONCLUSIONS As a novel clinical sign, facial expression holds the potential to be incorporated into GO assessment system in the future. The discrimination model may assist clinicians in real-life patient care.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) In this study, we aimed to explore the changes of functional phenotype before and after radiotherapy through vitro and vivo experiments. The potential pathway was preliminarily clarified. MATERIALS/METHODS Firstly, the relationships between the prognosis and the expression of CDK4 protein in SCLC patients treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy were explored. Then the stable overexpressed/knockdown CDK4 and negative control transfecting SCLC cell lines were established to monitor the changes of cell proliferation, migration, invasion, apoptosis and cell cycle after increasing radiation doses according to a cell counting kit assay, transwell cell migration and invasion assay, apoptosis cell cycle assay and BALB/c mouse model of subcutaneously transplanted tumor. The potential signal pathways were confirmed via KEGG pathway enrichment analysis and western blot. RESULTS Compared with patients with lower CDK4 protein expression, prognosis of those with high CDK4 protein expression was decreased significantly (p < 0.05). The cell activity, migration and invasion ability of overexpression/knockdown CDK4 and negative control group were all decreased with increasing radiation doses, but the activity, migration and invasion ability of cells with overexpression CDK4 was stronger after same dose X-ray irradiation (p<0.01). For group with knockdown CDK4, it showed lower cell activity, migration and invasion than negative control group. After X-ray irradiation, the apoptotic ratio of all groups increased. And cells with overexpressed CDK4 displayed significantly reduced apoptosis, less G0/G1 phase cells, and improved M phase cells than the control group. In addition, compared with negative control group, gross tumor volume of overexpression CDK4 group decreased much smaller after X-ray irradiation. H1339 cells with overexpression CDK4 and negative control group were sequenced by transcriptomic sequencing before and after radiotherapy. Taken together, differential genes were consistently enriched in MAPK pathway. Western blot showed that, compared with the negative control group, overexpression CDK4 group of H1339 and SW1271 cells after radiotherapy all showed significant changes on pERK proteins in the ERK pathway increased significantly (P<0.001). CONCLUSION In this study, the overexpression/knockdown CDK4 and negative control group were successfully constructed in H1339 and SW1271 cells, revealing the radiotherapy resistance of CDK4 alterations in vitro and in vivo experiment. And CDK4 alterations was shown to promote radiotherapy resistance through phosphorylation of MAPK/ERK signaling pathway in SCLC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the factors influencing the diagnosis and treatment of tracheobronchial foreign bodies (TFBs) in children. METHODS The clinical data of 300 consecutive children with suspected TFBs who were admitted to our department between January 2016 and December 2019 were retrospectively collected, including demographics, diagnosis, history of foreign body inhalation, preoperative chest computed tomography (CT) findings, duration of foreign body retention, time from admission to operation, operation duration, duration of hospitalization, and complications. RESULTS Among the 300 cases, the male:female ratio was 193:107, and the age range was 6 months to 12 years (median age: 19 months). A total of 291 cases (97.0%) involved TFBs confirmed by rigid bronchoscopy, while the other 9 cases (3.0%) involved bronchopneumonia. The diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of a history of foreign body inhalation and chest CT were 96.0%, 98.6%, and 11.1% and 97.7%, 97.6%, and 100%, respectively. The duration of hospitalization, time from admission to operation, and operation duration were all related to bronchopneumonia (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS A detailed history, adequate physical examination, and preoperative imaging examination help improve the diagnostic accuracy. Preoperative bronchopneumonia in children with TFBs will increase the surgical risks and treatment costs, prolonging the duration of hospitalization.

Abstract
AIM To present an integrated 2-[18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose (18F-FDG) positron-emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) radiomic characterisation of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) status in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). MATERIALS AND METHODS In this retrospective study, 18F-FDG PET/CT images and clinical data of 394 eligible patients were divided into training (n=275) and test sets (n=119). Next, the corresponding nodule of interest was segmented manually on the axial CT images by radiologists. After which, the spatial position matching method was used to match the image positions of CT and PET, and radiomic features of the CT and PET images were extracted. Radiomic models were built using five different machine-learning classifiers and the performance of the radiomic models were further evaluated. Finally, a radiomic signature was established to predict the PD-L1 status in patients with NSCLC using the features in the best performing radiomic model. RESULTS The radiomic model based on the PET intranodular region determined using the logistic regression classifier preformed best, yielding an area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC) of 0.813 (95% CI: 0.812, 0.821) on the test set. The clinical features did not improve the test set AUC (0.806, 95% CI: 0.801, 0.810). The final radiomic signature for PD-L1 status was consisted of three PET radiomic features. CONCLUSION This study showed that an 18F-FDG PET/CT-based radiomic signature could be used as a non-invasive biomarker to discriminate PD-L1-positive from PD-L1-negative in patients with NSCLC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Specific pathogen infections associated with acute rhinosinusitis (ARS) in infants are risk factors for allergic asthma in adolescents. However, the risk factors for ARS onset remain largely unknown in asthmatic children. In this study, we aim to investigate the risk factors for ARS in childhood asthma. METHODS This study retrospectively compared and analyzed the clinical characteristics of asthmatic children with (n = 194) or without ARS (n = 799). Univariate regression analyses were performed to identify ARS-associated risk factors in asthmatic children, and subsequent multivariate backward stepwise logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent risk factors. RESULTS The onset age, values of blood eosinophils (EOS) (%), and total IgE were significantly lower in patients with ARS than in those without ARS. Moreover, the proportions of patients allergic to Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (d1) and Dermatophagoides farinae (d2) were significantly smaller in children with ARS (all p values <0.05). Univariate analyses showed that an older onset age, a higher body mass index, a higher value of blood EOS (%) were protective factors, while a higher value of blood lymphocytes (%) and a higher degree of sensitization to d1 and d2 were risk factors for ARS. Further backward stepwise multivariate logistic regression analyses confirmed that a younger onset age and allergic sensitization to d1 were independent risk factors for ARS in childhood asthma. CONCLUSION Younger onset age and allergic sensitization to d1 are risk factors for the onset of ARS in childhood asthma, so allergen intervention should be performed as early as possible in asthmatic children.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the association of soluble programmed death-1 ligand-1 (sPD-L1) levels with clinicopathological characteristics, therapy efficacy, and survival outcomes in lung cancer patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study included two hundred treatment-naive patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) (n=12), and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (n=188). Plasma samples from 96 healthy individuals and 13 patients with benign tumors served as controls. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to evaluate sPD-L1 expression. Blood samples of 67 NSCLC patients before and after therapy were collected. RESULTS sPD-L1 expression was significantly higher in lung cancer patients compared to the control groups (p=0.002). Moreover, patients with lower performance status had significantly higher sPD-L1 levels (p=0.005). NSCLC patients at later stages of the disease had greater sPD-L1 levels than those at the early stages (p<0.001). The presence of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation was not significantly different with higher sPD-L1 expression (p=0.334). Although sPD-L1 levels and progression-free survival (PFS) were linked with excellent response to therapy and advancing disease (p=0.307), no correlation was seen between sPD-L1 decrease and progression free survival (PFS). CONCLUSIONS Elevated sPD-L1 expression in NSCLC patients was associated with more advanced disease and worse overall health of the patients, suggesting a possible association with a negative clinical response and prognosis. sPD-L1 expression may be influenced by the mutation in EGFR.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Small airway dysfunction (SAD) is associated with type 2 inflammation in patients who have non-asthmatic chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNPs); however, the risk factors for abnormal small airway function indicators in CRSwNP patients with and without asthma remain unclear. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 41 asthmatic and 109 non-asthmatic CRSwNP patients. Clinical characteristics were compared between groups, correlations between small airway function and clinical parameters were calculated, and independent risk factors for every small airway indicator were identified in each group. RESULTS Asthmatic CRSwNP patients had significantly reduced small airway function, and the proportion of patients with SAD was higher in asthmatic CRSwNP patients (65.85%) than in patients without asthma (9.17%). With regard to specific airway function indicators, age and a patient's blood eosinophil (%) were identified as independent risk factors for lower FEF50% %pred and FEF25-75% pred, with age being an independent risk factor for FEF75% %pred in asthmatic CRSwNP patients. In non-asthmatic CRSwNP patients, allergic rhinitis comorbidity was found to be an independent risk factor for FEF50% %pred, FEF75% %pred, and FEF25-75% %pred. CONCLUSION Physicians should pay greater attention to risk factors for abnormal small airway function indicators in patients with CRSwNPs to prevent the occurrence of SAD.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics of children with IgE-mediated cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA) and provide a basis for disease management and prevention. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted to analyze 142 children aged 0-12 years who were diagnosed with IgE-mediated CMPA in Capital Institute of Pediatrics Affiliated Children's Hospital from 2020 to 2022. There were 79 males (55.6%) and 63 females (44.4%), with an average age of 14 (8, 27) months. 61 cases (43.0%) were in the <1-year-old group, 54 cases (38.0%) in the 1-3-year-old group, and 27 cases (19.0%) in the >3-year-old group. Data on demographic data, clinical manifestations, mean wheel diameter of skin prick test and serum specific IgE level were collected. The serum cow's milk protein sIgE and component sIgE were measured by ImmunoCAP fully automated system of fluorescence enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and statistically analyzed using chi-square test, nonparametric tests, correlation. Results: Cutaneous symptoms were the first and most frequent in 142 children (97.9%, 139/142 cases), followed by digestive (29.6%, 42/142 cases) and respiratory symptoms (27.5%, 39/142 cases).The proportion of children with respiratory symptoms after consuming cow's milk was significantly higher in the>3 years age group than those in the infant and toddler groups(66.7% vs 19.7%,χ2=18.396,P<0.01;66.7% vs 16.7%,χ2=20.250,P<0.01), and the symptoms involving ≥3 systems were also significantly higher than those in the other two groups(37.0% vs 13.1%,χ2=6.597,P<0.05;37.0% vs 7.4%,χ2=12.120,P<0.01). The average cow's milk SPT diameter and serum sIgE levels in the>3 years age group were significantly higher than those in the infant and toddler groups (Z=-4.682, P<0.01; Z=-3.498, P<0.01); (Z=-4.463, P<0.01; Z=-6.463, P<0.01). The most common cow's milk component protein were β-lactoglobulin(65.1%,56/86 cases) and casein (57.0%, 49/86 cases). Multiple-sensitization rate of the patients were 54.9%. Egg white (43.7%, 62/142 cases) was the most common co-sensitization food allergen while mold (12.7%, 18/142 cases) and weed pollen (12.7%, 18/142 cases) were the main co-sensitization aeroallergens. The proportion of multiple-sensitization to aeroallergens in the children group was the highest (51.9%, 14/27 cases), followed by the toddler group (29.6%, 16/54 cases), and the infant group was the least (3.3%, 2/61 cases). There was a significant difference among these three groups (χ2=7.476, P<0.05). Conclusion: Skin and mucosal symptoms are the most common in CMPA patients. The proportion of respiratory symptoms and multisystem involvement increased with age as well as the wheal diameter in skin test and serum sIgE level elevated. CMPA patients older than 3 years had the highest proportion of aeroallergen sensitization and airway allergic diseases.

Abstract
Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is an ophthalmic emergency and has poor visual prognosis. It is commonly found in elderly people and very rare in child. We reported an 8-year-old girl who suffered from acute sinusitis, periorbital swelling, and the visual acuity of her right eye was only light perception. She was diagnosed with CRAO, SPOA (subperiosteal orbital abscess), and acute sinusitis. Emergency treatments including surgery, antibiotics, glucocorticoids, intraocular-pressure-lowering drugs, and vasodilators were taken immediately in order to save the eyesight. The visual acuity of the right eye returned to 20/400. Conclusions: Severe intraorbital complications of acute sinusitis can lead to CRAO. Timely drainage, strong antibiotics, and glucocorticoids are the most effective methods for the treatments.

Abstract
BACKGROUD Pneumatosis in the cervical fascial space is a common imaging manifestation of cervical necrotizing fasciitis. At present, although there are some literature reports on pneumatosis in the cervical necrotizing fasciitis, there are few comparative reports. OBJECTIVE To compare the imaging findings of necrotizing fasciitis of the neck and other cervical space infections, and explore the relationship between pneumatosis in cervical fascial space and necrotizing fasciitis of the neck. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted on 56 cases of cervical fascia space infection in our department from May 2015 to March 2021, including 22 cases of necrotizing fasciitis and 34 cases of non-necrotizing fasciitis. 22 cases underwent incision, debridement and catheter drainage in the necrotizing fasciitis group. 26 cases underwent incision, debridement and catheter drainage, and 8 cases underwent ultrasound-guided puncture biopsy and catheter drainage in the non-necrotizing fasciitis group. All cases were confirmed by operation or pathological biopsy and took purulent secretions for bacterial culture and drug sensitivity test during or after operation. All cases were examined by neck CT or MRI before operation. The previous history of surgical incision or puncture and the rupture of cervical space infection were excluded. RESULTS In 22 cases of necrotizing fasciitis, there were 19 cases had air accumulation in the fascial space (86.4%); In 34 cases of non necrotizing fasciitis, 2 cases had air accumulation in the fascial space (5.9%).There was significant difference between the two groups (χ2 = 36.9141, p < .01). Bacterial culture results were positive in 18 (81.8%) patients in the necrotizing fasciitis group. In the non necrotizing fasciitis group, 12 (35.3%) patients had positive bacterial culture results. There was significant difference in the positive rate of bacterial culture between the two groups (χ2 = 11.6239, p < .01). Except one death in necrotizing fasciitis group, all other patients were cured. There was no recurrence after follow-up for 3-6 months. CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCE The pneumatosis of necrotizing fasciitis in the neck is dramatically more than that of other infectious diseases.It is suggested that pneumatosis in cervical fascial space is of great significance in the diagnosis of cervical necrosis, the gas production of bacteria may be closely related to the pathogenesis and development of necrotizing fasciitis of the neck, and early measures to block the generation and dissemination of gas is of great significance for treatment.
