Abstract
Melanoma is a dangerous form of skin cancer, making it important to investigate new mechanisms and approaches to enhance the effectiveness of treatment. Here, we establish a positive correlation between the human rhomboid family-1 (RHBDF1) protein and melanoma malignancy. We demonstrate that the melanoma RHBDF1 decrease dramatically inhibits tumor growth and the development of lung metastases, which may be related to the impaired glycolysis. We show that RHBDF1 function is essential to the maintenance of high levels of glycolytic enzymes, especially glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (GPI). Additionally, we discover that the E3 ubiquitin ligase tripartite motif-containing 32 (TRIM32) mediates the K27/K63-linked ubiquitination of GPI and the ensuing lysosomal degradation process. We prove that the multi-transmembrane domain of RHBDF1 is in competition with GPI, preventing the latter from interacting with NCL1-HT2A-LIN41 (NHL) domain of TRIM32. We also note that the mouse RHBDF1's R747 and Y799 are crucial for competitive binding and GPI protection. Artificially silencing the Rhbdf1 gene in a mouse melanoma model results in declined lactic acid levels, elevated cytotoxic lymphocyte infiltration, and improved tumor responsiveness to immunotherapy. These results provide credence to the hypothesis that RHBDF1 plays a significant role in melanoma regulation and suggest that blocking RHBDF1 may be an efficient technique for reestablishing the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) in melanoma and halting its progression.

Abstract
In high-altitude regions, low birth weight is mainly caused by hypoxia. We aimed to determine whether maternal serum uric acid (SUC) level was associated with decreased foetal birth weight. The relevant data of individual pregnant women who delivered between 37 and 40 weeks in the People's Hospital of Naqu City, Tibet were retrospectively collected. The correlation between maternal SUC and birth weight was examined using multivariate linear regression analysis and subgroup analysis. The results showed that there was a significant negative correlation between SUC and birth weight in pregnant women with proteinuria, female foetuses, and primiparas. Fitting smoothing curve analysis showed that there was a negative linear correlation between SUC and birth weight in primiparas and female foetuses. Maternal SUC is negatively associated with foetal birth weight in a single pregnancy with proteinuria, primipara, or female foetuses in the Naqu region of Tibet, China.IMPACT STATEMENTWhat is already known on this subject? Preeclampsia associated with hyperuricaemia can affect foetal birth weight, foetal birth weight in plains area is negatively correlated with maternal hyperuricaemia.What do the results of this study add? Maternal SUC was negatively correlated with foetal birth weight, especially in primipara, mothers with proteinuria, and pregnant girls.What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/or further research? The results suggest that attention should be paid to SUC in pregnant women, especially in primipara, mothers with proteinuria, and pregnant girls, in the prevention of low birth weight infants in Naqu Plateau area of Tibet.

Abstract
Objective: To clarify the mechanisms involvement in Alisertib-resistant colorectal cells and explore a potential target to overcome Alisertib-resistance. Methods: Drug-resistant colon cancer cell line (named as HCT-8-7T cells) was established and transplanted into immunodeficient mice. The metastasis in vivo were observed. Proliferation and migration of HCT-8-7T cells and their parental cells were assessed by colony formation and Transwell assay, respectively. Glycolytic capacity and glutamine metabolism of cells were analyzed by metabolism assays. The protein and mRNA levels of critical factors which are involved in mediating glycolysis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) were examined by western blot and reverse transcription-quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR), respectively. Results: In comparison with the mice transplanted with HCT-8 cells, which were survival with limited metastatic tumor cells in organs, aggressive metastases were observed in liver, lung, kidney and ovary of HCT-8-7T transplanted mice (P<0.05). The levels of ATP [(0.10±0.01) mmol/L], glycolysis [(81.77±8.21) mpH/min] and the capacity of glycolysis [(55.50±3.48) mpH/min] in HCT-8-7T cells were higher than those of HCT-8 cells [(0.04±0.01) mmol/L, (27.77±2.55) mpH/min and(14.00±1.19) mpH/min, respectively, P<0.05]. Meanwhile, the levels of p53 protein and mRNA in HCT-8-7T cells were potently decreased as compared to that in HCT-8 cells (P<0.05). However, the level of miRNA-125b (2.21±0.12) in HCT-8-7T cells was significantly elevated as compared to that in HCT-8 cells (1.00±0.00, P<0.001). In HCT-8-7T cells, forced-expression of p53 reduced the colon number (162.00±24.00) and the migration [(18.53±5.67)%] as compared with those in cells transfected with control vector [274.70±40.50 and (100.00±29.06)%, P<0.05, respectively]. Similarly, miR-125b mimic decreased the glycolysis [(25.28±9.51) mpH/min] in HCT-8-7T cells as compared with that [(54.38±12.70)mpH/min, P=0.003] in HCT-8-7T cells transfected with control. Meanwhile, in comparison with control transfected HCT-8-7T cells, miR-125b mimic also significantly led to an increase in the levels of p53 and β-catenin, in parallel with a decrease in the levels of PFK1 and HK1 in HCT-8-7T cells (P<0.05). Conclusions: Silencing of p53 by miR-125b could be one of the mechanisms that contributes to Alisertib resistance. Targeting miR-125b could be a strategy to overcome Alisertib resistance.

Abstract
Sleep is a highly conserved phenomenon in endotherms, and has a universal physiological function across all species. In mammals, sleep can be divided into two stages: rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and non-REM (NREM) sleep, which alternate in a cyclic manner. Humans spend about one-third of their lives asleep. Sufficient sleep is necessary for humans to sustain everyday functioning. Sleep plays an important role in regulating energy metabolism, immune defense, endocrine function, and the consolidation of memory process. With the development of social economy and the change of life style, sleep duration of the residents has gradually decreased and the incidence of sleep disturbances has increased. Sleep disturbances can lead to severe mental disorders, such as depression, anxiety disorders, dementia, and other mental diseases, and may increase the risk of physical diseases, such as chronic inflammation, heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, atherosclerosis and others. Maintaining good sleep is of great significance for developing social productive forces, promoting sustainable development of economic society, and is a necessary condition for carrying out the "Healthy China Strategy". The sleep research in China started in 1950s. After decades of development, researchers have made great progress in the molecular mechanisms of sleep and wakefulness, the pathogenesis of sleep disorders and the development of new therapies. With the advancement of science and technology and the public's attention to sleep, the level of clinical diagnosis and therapy of sleep disorders in China is gradually brought in line with international standards. The publication of diagnosis and treatment guidelines in the field of sleep medicine will promote the standardization of the construction. In the future, it is still necessary to promote the development of sleep medicine in the following aspects: Strengthening the professional training and discipline construction, improving the cooperation of sleep research, promoting the intelligent diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders, and developing the new intervention strategies. Therefore, this review will comprehensively summarize the origin, current situation, and future expectations of sleep medicine in China, including discipline construction of sleep medicine, the number of sleep project grants, research findings, the status and progress of diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders, and the development direction of sleep medicine.

Abstract
The comorbidity of autism spectrum disorder and anxiety is common, but the underlying circuitry is poorly understood. Here, Tmem74-/- mice showed autism- and anxiety-like behaviors along with increased excitability of pyramidal neurons (PNs) in the prelimbic cortex (PL), which were reversed by Tmem74 re-expression and chemogenetic inhibition in PNs of the PL. To determine the underlying circuitry, we performed conditional deletion of Tmem74 in the PNs of PL of mice, and we found that alterations in the PL projections to fast-spiking interneurons (FSIs) in the dorsal striatum (dSTR) (PLPNs-dSTRFSIs) mediated the hyperexcitability of FSIs and autism-like behaviors and that alterations in the PL projections to the PNs of the basolateral amygdaloid nucleus (BLA) (PLPNs-BLAPNs) mediated the hyperexcitability of PNs and anxiety-like behaviors. However, the two populations of PNs in the PL had different spatial locations, optogenetic manipulations revealed that alterations in the activity in the PL-dSTR or PL-BLA circuits led to autism- or anxiety-like behaviors, respectively. Collectively, these findings highlight that the hyperactivity of the two populations of PNs in the PL mediates autism and anxiety comorbidity through the PL-dSTR and PL-BLA circuits, which may lead to the development of new therapeutics for the autism and anxiety comorbidity.

Abstract
To further study the aminoalcohol-diterpenoid alkaloids (ADAs) in Fuzi (Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata), a simple and sensitive UFLC-MS/MS method was established and validated for the determination of five ADAs, aconine, mesaconine, hypaconine, deoxyaconine and fuziline, in rat plasma to compare the pharmacokinetic characteristics of pure ADAs and Fuzi decoction. After precipitating protein with methanol, plasma samples were isolated at 0.5 mL/min flow rate on Waters Acquity UPLC BEH C18 column (100 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.7 µm). The mobile phase was composed of 0.1% formic acid-water and methanol with gradient elution. Mass spectrometric inspection was conducted on a 5500 UFLC-MS/MS system with an electrospray ionization source in patterns of positive ion and multiple reaction-monitoring (MRM). All calibration curves were proved to have acceptable linearity (r2 > 0.99) in linear ranges. Intra-day and inter-day precision and the accuracy met the requirements. The matrix effects of all analytes were between 85% and 115% of three concentration levels. This method has been under verification for comparative pharmacokinetic research after oral administration between aqueous extract of Fuzi and single pure ADAs. The results demonstrated that there are evident pharmacokinetic discrepancies between them, and administration in the extract form instead of pure form may contribute to higher absorption.

Abstract
Objective: To compare oxytocin combined with ergometrine with oxytocin alone in terms of primary prophylaxis for postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) at the time of cesarean section (CS). Methods: This was a multicenter double-blind randomized controlled interventional study comparing ergometrine combined with oxytocin and oxytocin alone administered at CS. From December 2018 to November 2019, a total of 298 parturients were enrolled in 16 hospitals nationwide. They were randomly divided into experimental group (ergometrine intra-myometrial injection following oxytocin intravenously; 148 cases) and control group (oxytocin intra-myometrial injection following oxytocin intravenously; 150 cases) according to 1∶1 random allocation. The following indexes were compared between the two groups: (1) main index: blood loss 2 hours (h) after delivery; (2) secondary indicators: postpartum blood loss at 6 h and 24 h, placental retention time, incidence of PPH, the proportion of additional use of uterine contraction drugs, hemostatic drugs or other hemostatic measures at 2 h and 24 h after delivery, the proportion requiring blood transfusion, and the proportion of prolonged hospital stay due to poor uterine involution; (3) safety indicators: nausea, vomiting, dizziness and other adverse reactions, and blood pressure at each time point of administration. Results: (1) The blood loss at 2 h after delivery in the experimental group [(402±18) ml] was less than that in the control group [(505±18) ml], and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). (2) The blood loss at 6 h and 24 h after delivery in the experimental group were less than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups in the incidence of PPH, the proportion of additional use of uterine contraction drugs, hemostatic drugs or other hemostatic measures at 2 h and 24 h after delivery, the proportion requiring blood transfusion, and the proportion of prolonged hospital stay due to poor uterine involution (all P>0.05). (3) Adverse reactions occurred in 2 cases (1.4%, 2/148) in the experimental group and 1 case (0.7%, 1/150) in the control group. There was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). The systolic blood pressure within 2.0 h and diastolic blood pressure within 1.5 h of drug administration in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05), but the blood pressure of the two groups were in the normal range. Conclusion: The use of ergometrine injection in CS could reduce the amount of PPH, which is safe and feasible.

Abstract
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) exists widely in eukaryotes as a post-transcriptional modification. This modification is dynamically and reversibly regulated by methyltransferases and demethylases, and is involved in regulating biological effects through m6A binding proteins. Recent studies have elucidated that m6A is involved in embryonic skin morphogenesis, wound repair, and pathophysiological processes such as inflammatory response, angiogenesis, and fibrosis. This review summarizes the role of m6A and its related proteins in the related pathophysiological processes of wound repair, so as to provide a new theoretical basis for the treatment strategy of wound repair.

Abstract
Objective To understand the prevalence and influencing factors of hypertension among the elderly aged 60 years and above in Mianyang City,Sichuan Province,so as to provide clues for targeted prevention and control of hypertension. Methods A total of 115 775 permanent residents aged 60 and above screened out from Mianyang demonstration sites from October 2017 to April 2019 were investigated by questionnaire and physical examination,and the data of personal basic information,lifestyle,body height,body weight,waist circumference,and blood pressure were collected.SPSS 22.0 was used for descriptive analysis,single factor analysis,and Logistic regression analysis. Results The prevalence rate of hypertension in the elderly aged 60 years and above in Mianyang was 50.60%.Specifically,the prevalence rates of hypertension in men and women were 50.27% and 50.85%,respectively.The prevalence rate of hypertension increased with the increase in age([Formula: see text]=370.199,P<0001).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the independent risk factors of hypertension included age of 70-79 years(OR=1.327,95%CI=1.292-1.363,P<0.001),the age of 80 years and above(OR=1.455,95%CI=1.386-1.527,P<0.001),widowhood(OR=1.343,95%CI=1.296-1.392,P<0.001),divorce(OR=1.255,95%CI=1.033-1.525,P=0.022),overweight(OR=1.431,95%CI=1.391-1.473,P<0.001),obesity(OR=2.171,95%CI=2.076-2.270,P<0.001),waist-to-height ratio>0.5(OR=1.317,95%CI=1.281-1.354,P<0.001),history of diabetes(OR=1.865,95%CI=1.791-1.941,P<0.001),history of smoking(OR=1.107,95%CI=1.068-1.148,P<0.001),and history of drinking(OR=1.950,95%CI=1.894-2.009,P<0.001).Living in urban-rural fringe areas(OR=0.628,95%CI=0.594-0.664,P<0.001),education background of junior high school and above(OR=0.942,95%CI=0.912-0.974,P<0.001),and low body weight(OR=0.785,95%CI=0.742-0.830,P<0.001) were protective factors for hypertension. Conclusions More than 50% of the elderly aged 60 years and above in Mianyang suffer from hypertension.The elderly with advanced age,widowhood,divorce,overweight,obesity,waist-to-height ratio>0.5,diabetes history,smoking history,and drinking history are the high-risk groups of hypertension.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence indicates that epilepsy has a higher risk of inducing memory impairment and dementia. However, the underlying onset mechanism remains unclear. Here, we found that mice with spontaneous epilepsy induced by endothelial CDK5 deficiency exhibited hippocampal‐dependent memory impairment at 6 months of age, but not at 2 months of age. Moreover, the persistent epileptic seizures induce aberrant changes in phosphorylation of CaMKII protein in the hippocampus of spontaneous epileptic mice. Using genome‐wide RNA sequencing and intergenic interaction analysis of STRING, we found that in addition to epilepsy‐related genes, there are changes in synaptic organization pathway node genes, such as Bdnf and Grin1. The synapse‐related proteins by Western blot analysis, such as NMDA receptors (NR1 and NR2B), PSD95, and the phosphorylation of synapsin1, are progressively decreased during epileptic seizures in Cdh5‐CreERT2;CDK5f/f mice. Notably, we found that valproate (VPA) and phenytoin (PHT) augment mRNA expression and protein levels of synapse‐related genes and ameliorate memory impairment in Cdh5‐CreERT2;CDK5f/f mice. Our study elucidates a potential mechanism of memory deficits in epilepsy, and pharmacological reversal of synaptic pathology targeting might provide a new therapeutic intervention for epileptic memory deficits.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the changes of γ-GCS mRNA expression and GSH-PX in serum of workers exposed to manganese in order to provide scientific basis for early diagnosis of manganese poisoning. Methods: In June 2017, a total of 180 workers from a motorcycle manufacturer were selected by stratified random sampling, including 115 welders as the exposure group and 65 administrative office workers as the Control Group, the exposure group was divided into high exposure group (43 persons) and low exposure group (72 persons) according to whether the exposure group exceeded the standard limit. The levels of γ-gcs Mrna expression and GSH-Px activity in serum were determined by Occupational Health Survey, and the differences of γ-gcs Mrna expression and GSH-Px activity among different groups were analyzed. Results: Compared with the control group, the serum GSH-Px activity was lower and the serum γ-GCS mRNA expression level was higher in the exposed group (F=370.52, 275.95, P<0.01) . Compared with the control group, there was significant difference in γ-GCS mRNA expression level and GSH-Px activity (F=0.475、1.06, P<0.01; F=48.53、111.70, P<0.01) . The concentrations of manganese in air, welding dust and urine were positively correlated with the level of γ-GCS mRNA (r=0.71, 0.50, 0.31, P<0.01) The serum GSH-Px activity was negatively correlated with the concentrations of manganese in air, welding dust and urine (r=-0.80, -0.52, -0.30, P< 0.01) , There was no correlation between Serum γ-GSH-Px activity and age and years of exposure (P>0.05) . Conclusion: Serum γ-GCS mRNA expression level and GSH-Px activity level can be used as early biomarkers of manganese poisoning. The concentrations of manganese in workplace air, welding dust and urine manganese in workers are the influencing factors.

Abstract
Uncovering interactions between edges of brain networks can reveal the organizational principle of the networks and also their dysregulations underlying aberrant behaviours such as in neuropsychiatric diseases. In this study, we looked into the applicability of edge-based network analysis in uncovering possible network mechanisms of aberrant anxiogenic processing. Utilizing a rat model of prodromal Parkinson's disease we examined how a dorsomedial striatum-tied associative network (DSAN) may mediate context-based anxiogenic behaviour. Following dopamine depletion in the dorsomedial striatum, an exaggerated bottom-up signalling (posterior parietal-hippocampal-retrosplenial to anterior prefrontal-cingulate-amygdala regions) and gradient specific to the theta frequency in this network was observed. This change was accompanied by increased anxiety behaviour of the animals. By employing an edge-based approach in correlating informational flow (phase transfer entropy) with functional connectivity of all edges of this network, we further explore how the abnormal bottom-up signalling might be explained by alterations to the informational flow-connectivity motifs in the network. Our results demonstrate usage of edge-based network analysis in revealing concurrent informational processing and functional organization dynamics across multiple pathways in a brain network. This approach in unveiling network abnormalities and its impact on behavioural outcomes would be useful in probing the network basis of neuropsychiatric conditions.

Abstract
Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) represents a common respiratory disease in children patients. Kukoamine A (KuA) is a spermine alkaloid found in the Chinese herb Cortex Lycii radices, which has a variety of pharmacological properties. However, no study has been reported on the role of KuA in MPP. Exosomes, a type of lipid bilayer-enclosed extracellular vesicles, can be delivered to the target cells, where they regulate function and physiology. With the use of human alveolar basal epithelial cells (HABECs) as an in vitro model, in this study, we sought to characterize the changes in levels of superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) and proinflammatory cytokines including IL-6 and TNF-α in HABECs in response to exosomes, which were isolated from peripheral blood serum of MPP patients. We found that, compared to normal, MPP patients exhibited a significant up-regulated miR-222-3p. Further, exosomal miR-222-3p downregulated SOD2 activity but promoted nuclear NF-κB activity and expression of IL-6 and TNF-α in HABECs, ultimately leading to an oxidative stress condition. Interestingly, such stimulating effects were attenuated by the pretreatment of KuA. This study suggests a critical role possessed by KuA in MPP by regulating the miR-222-3p/SOD2 axis, which represents a promising strategy for the treatment of MPP.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is a serious threat to female health, although the incidence of it is relatively low, its mortality rate remains high due to its intense invasion and metastasis. Therefore, it is urgent to explore new treatment strategies for ovarian cancer. In this study, paclitaxel and emodin were encapsulated in different micelles, and loaded on the surface of the micelles with epidermal growth factor (EGF) as the targeting molecule, made compound formulations in proportion. In this study, EGF-modified paclitaxel micelles and EGF-modified emodin micelles were characterized, their inhibitory effects on SKOV3 cell proliferation and invasion were studied in vivo and in vitro, and its targeting ability was confirmed. The results showed that the shape, particle size, zeta potential, release rate, encapsulation rate, polydispersity index, and other physical and chemical properties of EGF-modified paclitaxel micelles plus EGF-modified emodin micelles meet the requirements, and the modification of EGF on the micelle surface could obviously improve the uptake of SKOV3 cells and inhibit the proliferation of SKOV3 cells. The compound formulation can inhibit the invasion and metastasis of ovarian cancer by inhibiting the expression of hypoxia inducible factor-α, MMP-2, MMP-9, and VE-cadherin. The in vivo studies have also showed significant pharmacodynamics results. These results indicated that EGF-modified paclitaxel micelles plus EGF-modified emodin micelles provide a new strategy for the treatment of ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Cerebellar ataxias are characterized by a progressive decline in motor coordination, but the specific output circuits and underlying pathological mechanism remain poorly understood. Through cell-type-specific manipulations, we discovered a novel GABAergic Purkinje cell (PC) circuit in the cerebellar IV/V lobe that projected to CaMKIIα+ neurons in the fastigial nucleus (FN), which regulated sensorimotor coordination. Furthermore, transcriptomics profiling analysis revealed various cerebellar neuronal identities, and we validated that biorientation defective 1 (BOD1) played an important role in the circuit of IV/V lobe to FN. BOD1 deficit in PCs of IV/V lobe attenuated the excitability and spine density of PCs, accompany with ataxia behaviors. Instead, BOD1 enrichment in PCs of IV/V lobe reversed the hyperexcitability of CaMKIIα+ neurons in the FN and ameliorated ataxia behaviors in L7-Cre; BOD1f/f mice. Together, these findings further suggest that specific regulation of the cerebellar IV/V lobePCs → FNCaMKIIα+ circuit might provide neuromodulatory targets for the treatment of ataxia behaviors.

Abstract
Influenza is an infectious respiratory disease caused by the influenza viruses. Older people, infants and people with underlying medical conditions could have a higher risk of severe influenza symptoms and complications. The co-infection of Coronavirus Diseases 2019 (COVID-19) with influenza viruses could lead to the complication of prevention, diagnosis, control, treatment, and recovery of COVID-19. Influenza vaccine and COVID-19 vaccine overlapped in target populations, vaccination time, and inoculation units. Although there was insufficient evidence on the immunogenicity and safety of co-administration of influenza vaccine and COVID-19 vaccine, World Health Organization and some countries recommended co-administration of inactivated influenza vaccine and COVID-19 vaccine. This review summarized domestic and international vaccination policies and research progress, and put forward corresponding suggestions in order to provide scientific support for the formulation of vaccination strategy on seasonal influenza vaccine and COVID-19 vaccine.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate whether vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials(VEMPs) can be used to assess brainstem involvement in patients with Kennedy's disease (KD). Method: This was a case-control study.Twenty consecutive patients with genetically confirmed KD and 20 age-and sex-matched healthy subjects were enrolled from November 2018 to September 2020.All subjects were tested for three types of VEMPs, including cervical VEMP (c-VEMP) recorded by the sternocleidomastoid muscle (parameter:p13, n23), masseter VEMP (m-VEMP) recorded by the masseter muscle(parameter: p11), and ocular VEMP (o-VEMP) recorded by the inferior oblique muscle (parameter n10, p15).The latency of each wave, interside peak latency and interpeak latency of c-VEMP, the corrected amplitude and amplitude asymmetry ratio were recorded. Bilateral sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCMM) electromyography (EMG) was performed. The spinal cord and bulbous muscular atrophy functional rating scale (SBMAFRS) was used for assessment. Results: The mean p13 latency of c-VEMP was (15.5±1.4)ms, which was longer than that of the control group[(13.3±0.9)ms](P<0.05); the mean n23 latency was(25.5±1.4)ms, which was also longer than that of the control group[(22.5±1.0)ms] (P<0.05); the difference of bilateral p13[(2.3±0.6)ms] was significantly higher than that of the control group(P<0.05). The abnormal rates of c-, m-, o-VEMP in KD patients were 75%(15/20), 30%(6/20) and 20%(4/20), respectively. There was a significant positive correlation between c-VEMP latency and course of disease in KD patients(left: r=0.715, 0.695, right: r= 0.708, 0.715, both P<0.05). However, c-VEMP latency was negatively correlated with SBMAFRS score (left: r=-0.701, -0.694, right: r=-0.644, -0.685, both P<0.05). Abnormal rates of SCMM EMG in KD group were as follows: 15%(3/20)of patients showed spontaneous potential in resting state and 45% (9/20) of patients exhibited simple recruitment. Conclusions: The c-VEMP latency is a sensitive tool for detecting lower brainstem involvement in patients with KD, and the degree of damage increases with prolongation of disease course. The o-and m-VEMP abnormalities indicate that some KD patients develop upper brainstem damage.

Abstract
Background The rhomboids are a family of multi-transmembrane proteins, many of which have been implicated in facilitating tumor progression. Little is yet known, however, about rhomboid-associated biomarkers in cancers. An analysis of such biomarkers could yield important insights into the role of the rhomboids in cancer pathology. Methods In this study, we carried out the univariate Cox regression analysis and compared gene expression patterns of several rhomboid genes in 30 types of cancers by using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and the methods delineated in Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA). We then used datasets GSE47032, GSE126964, GSE68417 and 75 paired pathological specimens to verify the influences of the rhomboid genes in cancer progression. Moreover, we carried out Weighted Gene Correlation Network Analysis (WGCNA) to investigate gene-related functions and we exploited potential correlations between rhomboid genes expression and immune cell infiltration in cancer tissues. Furthermore, we constructed gene-knockdown cancer cell lines to investigate rhomboid gene functions. Results We find that kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) disease progression is affected by fluctuations in the expression of a number of the rhomboid family of genes and, more specifically, high levels of RHBDF2 gene expression are a good indicator of poor prognosis of the disease, as patients with high RHBDF2 expression levels exhibit less favorable survival rates compared to those with low RHBDF2 levels. Silencing of the RHBDF2 gene in KIRC cell lines leads to significantly diminished cell proliferation and migration; this is in good agreement with the identification of an enhanced presence of a number of cell growth and migration promoting signaling molecules in KIRC tumors. We found that, although high level of RHBDF2 correlated with increased infiltration of lymphocytes in cancer tissues, artificially overexpressed RHBDF2 led to an inhibition of the activity of the infiltrated immune cells through sustaining PD-L1 protein level. Furthermore, we show that RHBDF2 related cell migration and PD-L1 regulation were potentially mediated by EGFR signaling pathway. Conclusions RHBDF2 gene functions are correlated to facilitated renal clear cell carcinoma progression and may serve as a critical prognostic biomarker for the disease.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the factors related to myasthenic crisis (MC) in myasthenia gravis patients (MG) with oropharyngeal involvement during hospitalization. Methods: The clinical data of 99 MG patients with oropharyngeal involvement who were admitted to Beijing Tongren Hospital from 2018 to 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. There were 52 males and 47 females, aged 17-89 (55±15) years old, with a disease duration of 1-240 [10 (4, 36)] months. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to determine the factors associated with MC. Results: A total of 19 (19.19%) patients developed into MC during hospitalization. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age of hospitalization ≥ 60 years old (OR=31.378, 95%CI: 3.868-254.557, P=0.001), type B and C thymoma (OR=29.175, 95%CI: 2.986-285.016, P=0.004), excess oropharyngeal secretions (OR=12.649, 95%CI: 2.057-77.783, P=0.006) and infections (OR=9.539, 95%CI: 1.345-67.645, P=0.024) were independently related to MC in MG patients with oropharyngeal involvement. Conclusions: Older age, malignant thymoma, excess oropharyngeal secretions and infection are independently related to MC in MG patients with oropharyngeal involvement during hospitalization. Therefore, great attention should be paid to this type of MG patients, and increased oropharyngeal secretions and various infections should be actively treated, so as to reduce the occurrence of MC.

Abstract
Objective: To explore whether the cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS+HIPEC) can improve the survival rate of colorectal cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis. Methods: The relevant studies were systematically retrieved from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP database, and the study of French Elias' team on peritoneal metastasis was retrieved manually. Inclusion criteria: (1) The patients were colorectal cancer peritoneal metastasis. (2) There were CRS+HIPEC treatments (treatment group) and other treatments (control group). (3) Survival analysis data of treatment group and control group were available. (4) Types of studies were randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, or case-control studies. (5) The literature was in Chinese or English. Exclusion criteria: (1) studies without full-text; (2) studies without complete data. The literature screening and data extraction were carried out by two people independently, and the third person decided on the literature with differences. The extracted data included authors, year of publication, number of patients, time of enrollment, time of follow-up, studies design, treatment regimen, hazard ratio (HR) and 95% CI of treatment group and control groups. If the HR and 95% CI of the treatment group and control group were not provided in the literature, Engauge Digitizer 11.1 software was used to extract the time of follow-up and the survival rate at the corresponding time point from the survival curves of both groups, and the HR and 95% CI of both groups were calculated by combining the number of both groups. The quality of study was evaluated by Newcastle-Ottawa scale (NOS) or Cochrane collaboration's tool for assessing risk bias. STATA 15.1 software was used for statistical analysis. HR and 95% CI of both groups were pooled and analyzed. Inter-trial heterogeneity was assessed by Q test and I(2) statistics. When there was no significant heterogeneity (Q test: P≥0.10), fixed-effect model was used for pooled analysis. When significant heterogeneity existed (Q test: P<0.10), random effect model was used for pooled analysis, and subgroup analysis was used to find out the source of heterogeneity. Sensitivity analysis was used to evaluate the stability of the pooled results. Publication bias was assessed by Egger's test and Begg's test (P<0.05 indicated publication bias) and it is reflected by the visual symmetry of Begg's funnel plot on the natural logarithm of HR. Results: A total of 10 studies were enrolled in the meta-analysis, including 1 randomized controlled trial and 9 cohort studies. The risk of bias in 1 randomized controlled trial was uncertain, and 9 cohort studies were all higher than 7 points, indicating high quality literatures. There were 781 patients in treatment group receiving CRS+HIPEC and 2452 patients in control group receiving other treatment, including tumor cytoreductive surgery (CRS), palliative chemotherapy (PC) and intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IPC). The results of pooled analysis by random effect model showed that the OS rate in treatment group was significantly higher than that in control group (HR=0.43, 95% CI: 0.34-0.54), but the heterogeneity of the study was high (P=0.024, I(2)=52.9%). The subgroup analysis of different control treatments showed that the OS rate in treatment group was significantly higher than that in CRS control group (HR=0.63, 95% CI: 0.44-0.90), in PC control group (HR=0.37, 95% CI: 0.32-0.43), in CRS+ IPC control group (HR=0.60, 95% CI: 0.37-0.96), and the heterogeneity of each subgroup was low (CRS control group: P=0.255, I(2)=22.9%; PC control group: P=0.222, I(2)=29.9%; CRS+IPC control group: P=0.947, I(2)=0). Due to the low heterogeneity of subgroups, fixed-effect models were used to pool and analysis. The results of sensitivity analysis revealed that there was little difference between the pooled analysis results after each study was deleted, suggesting that the pooled analysis results were more reliable. Publication bias detection of each study showed Begg's test (P=0.088) >0.05 and Egger's test (P=0.138)>0.05. According to the Begg's funnel plot, the scatter point distribution was basically symmetric, indicating that there was no publication bias in the included study. Conclusion: CRS+HIPEC can improve the OS of patients with colorectal cancer peritoneal metastasis.

Abstract
The smoking cessation rate of 1 314 people at high risk of lung cancer in the area of lung cancer screening and early diagnosis and early treatment in Sichuan Province increased from 22.37% at baseline to 41.78% after screening (χ²=227.97, P<0.001), and the smoking amount of persistent smokers decreased from 20 cigarettes per day to 15 cigarettes per day (t=11.76, P<0.001). Those with positive results in lung cancer screening were more likely to quit smoking or continue to quit smoking. Male, younger age or lower education level would increase the risk of continuous smoking or relapse (P<0.05).

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the feasibility and clinical significance of a continuous auscultation recorder of bowel sounds based on artificial intelligence in monitoring the bowel sounds. Methods: From November 1,2018 to August 12,2019, a continuous auscultation recorder of bowel sounds was applied to monitor the perioperative bowel sounds of 31 patients undergoing colorectal surgery, in order to discovery underlying rules which might be used to guide clinical practice. Results: After the operation, the bowel sounds continued to exist for (1.8±0.8) h, and then gradually weakened or disappeared, and recovered gradually after (11.2±3.5) h. The first exhaust and the first defecation were detected at the time of (22.7±5.8) h and (28.7±6.9) h after surgery, respectively. The bowel sounds rate increased after eating, and decreased significantly after exhaust/defecation. Conclusions: The continuous auscultation recorder of bowel sounds based on artificial intelligence was safe and effective, which can afford help to clinical evaluation.

Abstract
Objectives: To investigated whether berberine could ameliorate septic cardiomyopathy in a rat model of sepsis and it's mechanisms. Methods: SD rats were divided into 3 groups: sepsis group (LPS group), rats were intraperitoneal injected of LPS (10 mg/kg); Berberine intervention group (Ber group), Ber (50 mg/kg, one time per day) was gavage fed 3 days before intraperitoneally injection of lipopolysaccharides (LPS); control group (Con group), rats were gavage fed with double distilled water (2 ml/100 g, one time per day) 3 days before intraperitoneal injection of normal saline (1 ml/100 g). LPS group and the Ber group was further divided into 3 subgroups (n=6), and the follow-up experiments were conducted at 6 h, 24 h and 48 h after LPS injection (of which 48 h subgroup rats were gavage fed with Ber/saline at 24 h). Left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP), left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP), and the maximum rate of change of left ventricular pressure (±dp/dtmax) were monitored, the level of cardiac troponin T (cTnT), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-1β was detected by ELISA method, HE staining of myocardial tissues was done to observe myocardial injury; Western blotting method was used to detect the expression of toll-like receptor 4(TLR4) protein in rat myocardial tissue, the level of myocardial cell nucleus protein p65 was detected to reflects the degree of NF-κB activation. The correlation of factors was analyzed with Pearson correlation analysis. Results: Pre-treatment with berberine stabilized cardiac hemodynamics and improved the systolic function and diastolic function in the heart of LPS-induced rats, as evidenced by the partial recovery of the reduced±dp/dtmax and LVSP, as well as the decreased LVEDP. Compared with the LPS group, the Ber group showed improved myocardial injury, as demonstrated by decreased cTnT at each time point. HE staining results showed that berberine decreased inflammatory cell infiltration and LPS-induced cell swelling. These effects were observed early at 6 hours, severe at 24 hours, and become more serious at 48 hours after LPS injection. Further, TLR4 and NF-κB p65 subunits, which were the two key factors of the TLR4/NF-κB signaling, were upregulated in the LPS group and attenuated in the Ber group. Consistently, the expression levels of the downstream cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β were lower in the Ber group than those in the LPS group (all P<0.05). Myocardial injury markers were positively correlated with the markers of TLR4/NF-κB signals and the downstream host inflammatory factors (all P<0.05). Conclusions: Berberine can improve myocardial injury and cardiac function in sepsis rats, the mechanism is considered to be related to that it can inhibit the activation of TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway induced by LPS and further reducing the production of TNF-α and IL-1β.

Abstract
Liu et al. reveal a key mechanism that mediating the transition from cerebrovascular damage to epilepsy. They identify the endothelial cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) regulates astrocytic glutamate reuptake and increased glutamate synaptic function through CXCL1/CXCR2-mediated astrogliosis. Blood–brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction has been suggested to play an important role in epilepsy. However, the mechanism mediating the transition from cerebrovascular damage to epilepsy remains unknown. Here, we report that endothelial cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) is a central regulator of neuronal excitability. Endothelial-specific Cdk5 knockout led to spontaneous seizures in mice. Knockout mice showed increased endothelial chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 (Cxcl1) expression, decreased astrocytic glutamate reuptake through the glutamate transporter 1 (GLT1), and increased glutamate synaptic function. Ceftriaxone restored astrocytic GLT1 function and inhibited seizures in endothelial Cdk5-deficient mice, and these effects were also reversed after silencing Cxcl1 in endothelial cells and its receptor chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 2 (Cxcr2) in astrocytes, respectively, in the CA1 by AAV transfection. These results reveal a previously unknown link between cerebrovascular factors and epileptogenesis and provide a rationale for targeting endothelial signaling as a potential treatment for epilepsy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease for which there is no known cure. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a surgical treatment effective in reducing motor symptoms for PD patients. Previous work implicates DBS may directly influence motor cortex through stochastic antidromic spikes originating from the site of stimulation. Here we tested the hypothesis that direct randomized cortical stimulation is therapeutically effective in PD animal models. APPROACH As a proof-of-principle study, we utilized a multi-channel stimulating system to mimic the effects of stochastic antidromic activation on the motor cortex of rat, by delivering microcurrents randomized temporally and spatially, and assessed the efficacy in ameliorating motor symptoms in a rat PD model. MAIN RESULTS We found that different combinations of frequency, amplitude and pulse width of randomized electrical currents delivered to the motor cortex exerted different effects on Parkinsonian rats. Among these, some stimulus patterns, defined by specific ranges of pulse width and stimulation frequencies, were able to produce transient beneficial effect on locomotive ability assessed by open-field locomotor activities. These results indicate that, in principle, cortical stimulation could achieve therapeutic outcome in PD. SIGNIFICANCE Direct cortical simulation based on a randomized protocol could be a less invasive approach than standard DBS in treating Parkinsonism. More refined mode of stimulation to achieve long-lasting and more robust effect should be explored.

Abstract
Objective: To find more objective evidence and support for clinical classification of Parkinson's disease by means of tremor analysis in patients with early confirmed Parkinson's disease. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted to collect 65 patients with early Parkinson's disease treated in the Third Hospital of Peking University from January 2015 to December 2016. Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), Hoehn-Yahr scale (H-Y scale), Mini-mental state examination (MMSE), Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) were recorded in all patients. According to the ratio of UPDRS rigidity score to tremor score, the patients were divided into tremor dominant (TD), postural instability/gait difficulty (PIGD) and mixed types. All patients were examined by tremor analysis and the results were analyzed and compared. Results: Among the 65 patients, the mean age of onset was (63±10) years, the course of disease was (14±8) months. Twenty-one patients were classified to TD group, 28 patients were classified to PIGD type, and 16 patients with mixed type. There was no significant difference in frequency and amplitude of tremor between the three groups (P>0.05), but the proportion of alternating contraction and harmonic resonance of active and antagonistic muscles in TD group was significantly higher (P<0.05). Twenty patients (71.4%) in TD group showed typical Parkinson's disease manifestations in tremor analysis. Only four patients (14.3%) in PIGD group showed the typical manifestations. More patients in PIGD group showed no clear main peak of tremor at rest. Some patients showed 6-8 Hz/sec peak frequency in posture position and simultaneous contraction of the active and antagonist muscles. These two manifestations occured simultaneously in mixed type patients, including 10 cases (62.5%) with typical Parkinson's disease manifestations. Conclusion: As an objective electrophysiological method to evaluate tremor type, tremor analysis can be used as an important assistant method for clinical classification of Parkinson's disease. It can provide information of the pathway of pathological loss in different types and give important hints in prognosis and treatment.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the application value of motor unit number index (MUNIX) for diagnosis and assessment progress in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Method: Sixty healthy controls and 60 ALS patients in the clinic were enrolled from May 2017 to December 2018. The bilateral deltoid, abductor digiti minimi, quadriceps femoris and tibialis anterior muscles of the subjects were detected by MUNIX method, and the negative peak amplitude of compound muscle action potential (CMAP) of ulnar nerve, femoral nerve, peroneal nerve, axillary nerve in bilateral was collected. MUNIX and motor unit size index (MUSIX) of muscles were compared between ALS group and control group. The difference between the MUNIX abnormal rate of muscles and abnormal rate of the corresponding CMAP negative peak amplitude in ALS patients was further compared. Meanwhile, the correlation between the disease course of ALS patients and MUNIX and MUSIX was analyzed. Results: Compared with the control group, the MUNIX values of the deltoid, abductor digiti minimi, quadriceps femoris and tibialis anterior decreased significantly (97±24 vs 183±38, 48±17 vs 191±39, 54±15 vs 159±22, 49±16 vs 147±25, all P<0.05). MUSIX values increased ((175±32) μV vs (47±15) μV, (189±34) μV vs (54±16) μV, (170±30) μV vs (49±13) μV, (190± 36) μV vs (48± 14) μV, all P<0.05)). In ALS patients, the abnormal rate of MUNIX was respectively 81%, 87%, 75% and 89%. The negative peak amplitude abnormal rate of corresponding neuralCMAP was 35%, 40%, 31% and 36%, respectively, with a significant difference (P<0.05). There was a negative correlation between MUNIX value and the course of disease in ALS patients (P<0.05), and a positive correlation between MUSIX value and the course of disease (P<0.05). Conclusion: The MUNIX technique exhibits the features of quantifying the proximal upper and lower limb muscles and assessing the loss of motor units in motor neuron degeneration.

Abstract
Grb2-associated-binding protein 1 (Gab1) is a docking/scaffolding molecule known to play an important role in cell growth and survival. Here, we report that Gab1 is decreased in cholinergic neurons in Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients and in a mouse model of AD. In mice, selective ablation of Gab1 in cholinergic neurons in the medial septum impaired learning and memory and hippocampal long-term potentiation. Gab1 ablation also inhibited SK channels, leading to an increase in firing in septal cholinergic neurons. Gab1 overexpression, on the other hand, improved cognitive function and restored hippocampal CaMKII autorphosphorylation in AD mice. These results suggest that Gab1 plays an important role in the pathophysiology of AD and may represent a novel therapeutic target for diseases involving cholinergic dysfunction.

Abstract
Anxiety disorders are the most prevalent psychiatric disorders, but their pathogenic mechanism remains poorly understood. Here, we report that transmembrane protein 74 (TMEM74), which contains two putative transmembrane domains and exhibits high levels of mRNA in the brain, is closely associated with the pathogenesis of anxiety disorders. TMEM74 was decreased in the serum of patients with anxiety and the basolateral amygdaloid nucleus (BLA) in chronic stress mice. Furthermore, genetic deletion of Tmem74 or selective knockdown of Tmem74 in BLA pyramidal neurons resulted in anxiety-like behaviors in mice. Whole-cell recordings in BLA pyramidal neurons revealed lower hyperpolarization-activated cation current (Ih) and greater input resistance and excitability in Tmem74-/- neurons than in wild-type neurons. Accordingly, surface expression of hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated 1 (HCN1) channels was also lower in the BLA of Tmem74-/- mice. The Ih current blocker ZD7288 mimicked these effects in BLA pyramidal neurons in wild-type mice but not in Tmem74-/- mice. Consistent with the improvement in anxiety-like behaviors, Tmem74 overexpression restored HCN1 channel trafficking and pyramidal neuron excitability in the BLA of Tmem74-/- and chronic stress mice. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that interactions between Tmem74 and HCN1 are physiologically relevant and that transmembrane domain 1 (TM1) is essential for the cellular membrane localization of Tmem74 to enhance Ih. Together, our findings suggest that Tmem74 coupling with HCN1 acts as a critical component in the pathophysiology of anxiety and is a potential target for new treatments of anxiety disorders.

Abstract
Objective: An electrophysiological technique was established to determine Motor Unit Number Index (MUNIX), and to investigate the stability of MUNIX. Methods: Fifty healthy subjects (25 males and 25 females) from the Outpatient Service of Peking University Third Hospital between December 2017 and September 2018 were included and divided into 5 groups according to age. The relevant parameters were detected in bilateral deltoid muscle (axillary nerve), double little finger abductor muscle (ulnar nerve), double quadriceps muscle (femoral nerve), double tibialis anterior muscle (peroneal nerve). The same muscle and the same healthy subjects were tested again three months later. Three-step detection were conducted: first, the surface electrode was attached to the muscle belly of each muscle, and the reference electrode was placed 2-3 cm away from the muscle belly. At the same time, the maximum compound muscle action potential (CMAP) of corresponding nerve was obtained, and the negative peak amplitude was measured. The second step was to collect the interference phase of the surface electromyography (SIP). There were 10 levels in total. And the measurement was repeated for three times, and the whole interference phase range was measured in the end. In the third step, the negative peak amplitude and SIP value of CMAP were substituted into the Excel table, and the MUNIX and motor unit number size (MUSIX) values were automatically calculated by the instrument through mathematical functions. Results: The mean MUNIX values of deltoid, extensor little finger, quadriceps femoris and tibial anterior were 193.2, 189.0, 159.7, 147.2, MUSIX were 46.9, 54.3, 49.6, 48.1 μV, respectively. The detection rates of MUNIX and MUSIX in the four muscles were 100%, respectively. With the increase of age, it could be seen that MUNIX declined, with statistically significant difference (P<0.05), but there was no significant change in MUSIX. There was no statistically significant difference in MUNIX and MUSIX between different gender, lateral sides and baseline and 3-month's reexamination results (P>0.05). Conclusions: MUNIX technology can improve the motor unit count of proximal upper limb and lower limb muscles. Its parameters are monitored using a mathematical model based on the composite muscle action potential and the interference phase of surface electromyography. Result is stable and reliable.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the relationship between the spontaneous focal lamina cribrosa (LC) defect and the progression of visual field defect (VFD) in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). Methods: Case-control study. The patients who were diagnosed as POAG with at least 5 visual field results had been collected from June 2018 to January 2019 at Beijing Tongren Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University. Serial imaging by swept source optical coherence tomography B-Scan of the optic discs were acquired at the end of the follow-up and LC defects status were reviewed. Intraocular pressure, mean defects of visual field, central corneal thickness and axis length were recorded in the follow-up duration. Eyes were classified as having either progressive or nonprogressive VFD, and associating factors were evaluated by χ(2) or Fisher's test, mixed-effect model analysis and multivariate Logistical regression analysis. Results: A total of 32 subjects (64 eyes) were enrolled in the study with mean age of (47±14) years, the group consisted of 17 males and 15 females. Fourty-five eyes showed nonprogressive VFD. LC defects were more common in eyes without (28/45) rather than with progressive VFD (5/19) (χ(2)=6.896, P=0.009). Eyes with nonprogressive VFD showed longer axis length[(26.82±1.34) mm vs. (25.79±1.44) mm; t=6.589, P=0.013] and wider LC defects diameter[211 (165-326) μm vs. 114 (106-156) μm; Z=4.797, P=0.042]. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that the presence of LC defect was significantly associated with nonprogressive VFD (odds ratio=0.217, P=0.012). There were 7 subjects with asymmetry VFD and the incedence of LC defects without progression (7/7) is higher than fellow eye with progression (1/7, P=0.002). There was only one patient with progressive VFD showed one LC defect with an smaller diameter (169 μm) than that in the contralateral eyes with stable VFD (269 μm). Conclusions: LC defects are more common in eyes with nonprogressive VFD. Spontaneous LC defects are associated with nonprogressive glaucomatous defects and could be a protective factor for POAG.

Abstract
Objective: To establish a method for detecting multi-segmental motor nerve conduction of axillary nerve using magnetic stimulation technique, and to preliminarily discuss its clinical application value. Methods: From April 2017 to February 2018, 80 healthy volunteers, 40 male and 40 female, were included and divided into five groups according to age and gender (groupⅠwere <35 years old; groupⅡwere 35-44 years old; group Ⅲ were 45-54 years old; groups Ⅳ were 55-64 years old; groups Ⅴ aged 65-74). Axillary nerve recording electrodes were placed in the deltoid muscle belly, reference electrode was placed in the deltoid muscle check point. Using the magnetic stimulation coil, stimulation was released at spots which were, respectively, 2 fingers from the lateral side of subscapular fossa, 2 fingers from the lateral side of infraclavicular fossae, and Erb's point. The latency, amplitude, detection distance (stimulation to recording electrode) were recorded at each spot, and the height and arm length were also measured. Results: The detection rate of axillary nerve waveform in healthy volunteers was 97.2%. There were no statistically significant differences in latency and amplitude in the different sides, gender (P>0.05).The latency corresponding to different detection distances was compared, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Height and arm length in different age groups were significantly increased in groupsⅠ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ compared with groups Ⅳ and Ⅴ, with statistical significance (P<0.05). When compared among different age groups, the latency and amplitude of group Ⅳand Ⅴ (more than 55 years old and over) were significantly prolonged and decreased, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusions: The method of detecting multi-segmental magnetic stimulation of axillary nerve is stable and the result is reliable, which makes the evaluation of the proximal nerve of upper limbs be possible. However, the biological effects of age on nerve conduction should be carefully considered.

Abstract
Emerging evidences indicate that dysregulated long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are implicated in cancer tumorigenesis and progression and might be used as diagnosis and prognosis biomarker, or potential therapeutic targets. LncRNA H19 has been reported to be upregulated in diverse human cancers; however, its clinical significance in gastric cancer (GC) remains elusive. Expression levels of H19 in 128 pairs of GC and adjacent normal tissues, GC cell lines and GC juices compared to their corresponding controls were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assay. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and Kaplan-Meier analysis were constructed to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic values. Univariate and multivariate analysis were performed using the Cox proportional hazard analysis. H19 expression was remarkably increased in GC tissues and cell lines compared with that in the normal control, and its up-regulation was significantly correlated to invasion depth (P < 0.001), advanced TNM stage (P = 0.002) and regional lymph nodes metastasis (P < 0.001) in GC. H19 levels were robust in differentiating GC tissues from controls [area under the curve (AUC) = 0.697; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.636-0.752, p<0.01]. Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that increased H19 expression contributed to poor overall survival (P = 0.017) and disease-free survival (P = 0.024) of patients. A multivariate survival analysis also indicated that H19 could be an independent prognostic marker. The levels of H19 in gastric juice from gastric patients were significantly higher than those from normal subjects (P = 0.034). Furthermore, knockdown of H19 expression by siRNA could inhibit cell migration and invasion in GC cells partly via regulating E-cadherin protein expression. H19 might serve as a promising biomarker for early detection and prognosis prediction of GC.

Abstract
Objective: To study the integrity of vestibular brain stem pathway and explore the diagnostic and clinical value of vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) in central nervous system diseases through the establishment of detection method of VEMPs. Method: Seventy-two normal volunteers (included between April 2016 and July 2017) were divided into 6 groups according to different ages.All subjects were tested with short acoustic stimulation.The superior oblique, masseter and sternocleidomastoid muscles were recorded respectively, and the stable waveform was obtained: (1)the Opposite ocular potential (o- VEMP) N1 and P1; (2)the bilateral masseter potential (m-VEMP) P11; (3)the same side neck potential (c-VEMP) P13 and N23.The three detection methods were used to measure the latency period, the amplitude of the peak value, the ratio of the amplitude before and after the stimulus, and the logarithm value of the ratio. Results: The mean values of latency period of N1, P11 and P13 were 10.9-12.0 ms, 11.3-13.6 ms, 13.2-14.6 ms, among which the occurrence rates of o-vemp, m-vemp and c-vemp were respectively 97.2%, 98.5% and 95.4%.With the increase of age, the latency period of each wave was observed to be prolonged, with significant difference (P<0.05), while no significant difference in the gender and side of each wave (P> 0.05). Conclusions: VEMPs are noninvasive measurement technology, stable and reliable, and can objectively evaluate the integrity of the vestibular brainstem pathway from three segment. This technology has broad application prospects in the central nervous system diseases, especially in neurodegenerative disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To prepare ion exchange doxorubicin-loaded poly (acrylic acid) microspheres (DPMs) and evaluate the properties of these chemoembolic agents. METHODS Poly (acrylic acid) microspheres (PMs) without drug were prepared by inverse suspension polymerization method and then doxorubicin was loaded by ion exchange mechanism to prepare DPMs. Optical microscope was used to investigate the morphology and particle size distribution of PMs and DPMs; fluorescence microscope and confocal microscope were used to observe the distribution of doxorubicin after drug loading. Elasticities of both the microspheres were evaluated by texture analyzer. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was established to determine the drug loading behavior of PMs and releasing behavior of DPMs. The in vivo embolic property was evaluated by embolizing the hepatic artery of a rabbit with 0.1 mL of DPMs. RESULTS PMs and DPMs were both spherical in shape, smooth in surface and dispersed well. Doxorubicin was mainly in the outer area inside of DPMs and distributed evenly. The average particle size of PMs and DPMs were (283±136) μm and (248±149) μm, respectively. PMs and DPMs both had good compression ability with the Young's modulus of (62.63±1.65) kPa and (93.94±1.10) kPa separately. PMs reached the drug loading balance at 12 h, and the entrapment efficiency was greater than 99%. Drug loading of PMs in doxorubicin solution at the concentration of 5.0 g/L and 12.5 g/L was (19.78±0.27) g/L and (49.45±0.37) g/L, respectively. Doxorubicin released slowly from DPMs in PBS and the accumulative release percentages of DPMs with corresponding drug loading were 6.82%±0.02% and 2.83%±0.10% after 24 h, respectively. Arterial angiograms showed that the hepatic artery of the rabbit was successfully embolized with DPMs. CONCLUSION DPMs with good performance of loading doxorubicin could be a potential embolic agent for transcatheter arterial chemoembolization.

Abstract
Objective:To investigate the expression and significance of CTHRC1 in patients with papillary thyroid cancinoma.Method:We collected 63 specimens of papillary thyroid carcinoma tissue with 36 specimens of the adjacent normal thyroid tissue and 23 specimens of thyroid nodular goiter. The expressions of CTHRC1 protein in these tissues were detected by immunohistochemical staining. The correlations between the expressions of CTHRC1 with clinicopathologic features,E-cadherin and Vimentin expression were analyzed.Result:CTHRC1 protein expression levels in papillary thyroid carcinoma tissue were significantly higher than those in adjacent normal thyroid tissue and benign disease(P<0.01);CTHRC1 expression was significantly correlated with lymph node metastases(P<0.05). Moreover,CTHRC1 expression was correlated with the expression of E-cadherin and Vimentin(P<0.01).Conclusion:CTHRC1 is related with the occurrence and miligant transformation of papillary thyroid cancinoma. We speculated that CTHRC1 might play a role in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition of papillary thyroid cancinoma.
