Abstract
Diabetic retinopathy (DR), a leading cause of visual impairment, demands a profound comprehension of its cellular mechanisms to formulate effective therapeutic strategies. Our study presentes a comprehensive single-cell analysis elucidating the intricate landscape of Müller cells within DR, emphasizing their nuanced involvement. Utilizing scRNA-seq data from both Sprague-Dawley rat models and human patients, we delineated distinct Müller cell clusters and their corresponding gene expression profiles. These findings were further validated through differential gene expression analysis utilizing human transcriptomic data. Notably, certain Müller cell clusters displayed upregulation of the Rho gene, implying a phagocytic response to damaged photoreceptors within the DR microenvironment. This phenomenon was consistently observed across species. Additionally, the co-expression patterns of RHO and PDE6G within Müller cell clusters provided compelling evidence supporting their potential role in maintaining retinal integrity during DR. Our results offer novel insights into the cellular dynamics of DR and underscore Müller cells as promising therapeutic targets for preserving vision in retinal disorders induced by diabetes.

Abstract
Chinese patent medicines (CPMs) are commonly prescribed by clinicians in China as adjuvant therapy for diabetic retinopathy (DR). The study of network meta-analysis (NMA) aims to compare the effectiveness and safety of three CPMs plus calcium dobesilate (CD) for DR, and to explore optimal CPM for treatment of DR. Methods. Bayesian network meta-analyses were designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of different CPMs for the treatment of DR. Systematic Review Registration CRD42022323996. Results. A total of 23 eligible RCTs involving 1824 patients were enrolled. Compared with CD alone, Cmpound Danshen Dripping Pills (DS) + CD or Qiming Granule (QM) + CD considerably enhanced best corrected visual acuity (BCVA); DS + CD or Compound Xueshuantong Capsule (XST) + CD significantly reduced macular thickness; CPMs + CD significantly reduced the level of VEGF. In addition, DS + CD or XST + CD over QM + CD in reducing macular thickness. As for the adverse events, the differences across different CPMs were not statistically significant, and no statistically significant difference between the CPMs and CD. Conclusion. DS plus CD or QM plus CD may be better effective in improving BCVA; DS plus CD or XST plus CD may be better effective in reducing macular thickness; The combination therapy all may be better effective in reducing the level of VEGF. As for safety profile that CPMs plus CD did not increase the incidence of adverse events. The results of this study might support DS as a relatively prior adjuvant therapy option for patients with DR.

Abstract
Objective: To describe the current status and trends in the outcomes and care practices of extremely preterm infants at 22-25 weeks' gestation age from the Chinese Neonatal Network (CHNN) from 2019 to 2021. Methods: This cross-sectional study used data from the CHNN cohort of very preterm infants. All 963 extremely preterm infants with gestational age between 22-25 weeks who were admitted to neonatal intensive care units (NICU) of the CHNN from 2019 to 2021 were included. Infants admitted after 24 hours of life or transferred to non-CHNN hospitals were excluded. Perinatal care practices, survival rates, incidences of major morbidities, and NICU treatments were described according to different gestational age groups and admission years. Comparison among gestational age groups was conducted using χ2 and Kruskal-Wallis tests. Trends by year were evaluated by Cochran-Armitage and Jonckheere-Terpstra tests for trend. Results: Of the 963 extremely preterm infants enrolled, 588 extremely preterm infants (61.1%) were male. The gestational age was 25.0 (24.4, 25.6) weeks, with 29 extremely preterm infants (3.0%), 88 extremely preterm infants (9.1%), 264 extremely preterm infants (27.4%), and 582 extremely preterm infants (60.4%) at 22, 23, 24, and 25 weeks of gestation age, respectively. The birth weight was 770 (680, 840) g. From 2019 to 2021, the number of extremely preterm infants increased each year (285, 312, and 366 extremely preterm infants, respectively). Antenatal steroids and magnesium sulfate were administered to 67.7% (615/908) and 51.1% (453/886) mothers of extremely preterm infants. In the delivery room, 20.8% (200/963) and 69.5% (669/963) extremely preterm infants received noninvasive positive end-expiratory pressure support and endotracheal intubation. Delayed cord clamping and cord milking were performed in 19.0% (149/784) and 30.4% (241/794) extremely preterm infants. From 2019 to 2021, there were significant increases in the usage of antenatal steroids, antenatal magnesium sulfate, and delivery room noninvasive positive-end expiratory pressure support (all P<0.05). Overall, 349 extremely preterm infants (36.2%) did not receive complete care, 392 extremely preterm infants (40.7%) received complete care and survived to discharge, and 222 extremely preterm infants (23.1%) received complete care but died in hospital. The survival rates for extremely preterm infants at 22, 23, 24 and 25 weeks of gestation age were 10.3% (3/29), 23.9% (21/88), 33.0% (87/264) and 48.3% (281/582), respectively. From 2019 to 2021, there were no statistically significant trends in complete care, survival, and mortality rates (all P>0.05). Only 11.5% (45/392) extremely preterm infants survived without major morbidities. Moderate to severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (67.3% (264/392)) and severe retinopathy of prematurity (61.5% (241/392)) were the most common morbidities among survivors. The incidences of severe intraventricular hemorrhage or periventricular leukomalacia, necrotizing enterocolitis, and sepsis were 15.3% (60/392), 5.9% (23/392) and 19.1% (75/392), respectively. Overall, 83.7% (328/392) survivors received invasive ventilation during hospitalization, with a duration of 22 (10, 42) days. The hospital stay for survivors was 97 (86, 116) days. Conclusions: With the increasing number of extremely preterm infants at 22-25 weeks' gestation admitted to CHNN NICU, the survival rate remained low, especially the rate of survival without major morbidities. Further quality improvement initiatives are needed to facilitate the implementation of evidence-based care practices.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This paper reports a case of chronic dacryocystitis due to nasal stones. CASE PRESENTATION An 84-year-old male patient was admitted to the hospital with chronic dacryocystitis of the right eye due to tearing and purulent discharge from the right eye for more than 1 month. Antibiotic treatments such as gatifloxacin eye drops were given at other hospitals but did not relieve the symptoms. A computed tomography(CT) scan of the lacrimal duct in our department showed a high-density shadow in the right lacrimal sac area, hypertrophy of the right inferior turbinate, and many nasal calculi in the nasal cavity. The patient was transferred to our otolaryngology department for further treatment, and nasal stones were removed under nasal endoscopy. Three days after surgery, the symptoms affecting the patient's right eye gradually resolved. One month after surgery, the patient underwent a follow-up examination in the ophthalmology clinic; there was no lacrimal purulent discharge from the right eye, and the lacrimal duct could be flushed smoothly. CONCLUSION Chronic dacryocystitis is often caused by primary nasolacrimal duct obstruction. Cases of chronic dacryocystitis caused by secondary nasolacrimal duct obstruction due to nasal stones are rare in the clinic. This case can serve as a reference for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of chronic dacryocystitis.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aims to investigate the potential bidirectional causal relationship between myopia and vitreous disorders from a genetic perspective, as vitreous disorders have been found to be closely associated with myopia development. METHODS To achieve this, a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) design was employed. The study utilized pooled statistics from independent genome-wide association studies. Myopia was chosen as the exposure factor, while five different vitreous disorders were considered as outcomes. The primary analytical method was the inverse variance weighting (IVW) method, supplemented by sensitivity analysis. RESULTS The study yielded significant findings indicating a positive association between myopia and vitreous disorders. The genetic prediction of myopia consistently demonstrated a positive correlation with vitreous disorders, as evidenced by IVW (odds ratio [OR] = 18.387; P < 0.01), MR Egger (OR = 2784.954; P < 0.01), weighted median (OR = 30.284; P < 0.01), and weighted mode (OR = 57.381; P < 0.01). All sensitivity analyses further validated these associations. Furthermore, a significant association was observed between myopia and other unspecified vitreous body disorders (IVW: OR = 57.729; P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Studies mainly conducted in European populations have confirmed that myopia, extending beyond early high myopia, plays a crucial role in influencing vitreous disorders and that there is a unidirectional causal relationship between myopia and vitreous disorders. Additionally, a causal relationship was identified between myopia and other unspecified vitreous disordes. These findings introduce fresh perspectives for the clinical management of unspecified vitreous disorders and contribute to the understanding of the effect of myopia on vitreous disorders. Myopia prevention and treatment will aid in slowing down the process of vitreous liquefaction and subsequently decrease the incidence of malignant eye conditions.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Radiation induced heart disease (RIHD) is any form of cardiac toxicity induced by radiation therapy (RT) for thoracic cancers. Our previous studies have shown that RT obviously contributed to cardiovascular diseases-specific death over 3 years while RT became protective in the short term within 2 years survival in non-small cell lung cancer patients. Here, single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was performed to identify various cell subsets and investigate their functions and dynamics in RIHD which offered several targets for early clinical interventions to alleviate RIHD. MATERIALS/METHODS Based on evaluation of histopathological characteristics, ejection fraction and serum levels of cardiac injury biomarkers, we have established mouse models during different stages to simulate clinical RIHD progression. Hence, we performed single cell RNA-sequencing of RIHD models to characterize the diversity within specific cell types and obtain basic information of differently expressed genes (DEGs). We investigated the role of several cell clusters and DEGs in RIHD through bioinformatics analysis and experimental verification. In vivo, mouse models were given intraperitoneal injection of CXCR2 inhibitor. Bone marrow macrophages and primary cardiac fibroblasts were extracted for in vitro experiments. RESULTS RIHD processes were divided into acute injury, compensation and decompensation stage. Transcriptomes of 31769 single cells from cardiac suspension have been profiled. Analysis of scRNA-seq revealed that there were 30 cell clusters participating in RIHD. The fraction of cell populations varied greatly at three stages which indicated RIHD was a dynamic process and each cell cluster functioned differently at different stages. Notably, we observed cardiac resident macrophages (cMAS) subset accounted for the highest fraction during the compensatory period and decreased in decompensation period. Pseudotime analysis showed cMAS had a different developmental trajectory compared to myeloid derived cells. Moreover, CXCR2 was significantly expressed in cMAS cluster. Ligand-receptor interaction results suggested that CXCL1 secreted by cardiac fibroblasts bind primarily to CXCR2+ cMAS and participated in the formation of the extracellular matrix (ECM) related to cardiac fibrosis. Moreover, cardiac fibrosis of RIHD models were relieved after CXCR2 inhibitor treatment. CXCL1 expression in primary cardiac fibroblast elevated after RT. CONCLUSION The identification of main cell clusters provided a new insight to investigate RIHD through dynamics of cell phenotypes and cell-cell communications during RIHD processes. In compensation stage, CXCR2+ cMAS could be activated by CXCL1 secreted by cardiac fibroblasts. Both were associated with ECM and contribute to the decompensation stage.

Abstract
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a microvascular lesion that occurs as a complication of diabetes mellitus. Many studies reveal that retinal neurodegeneration occurs early in its pathogenesis, and abnormal retinal function can occur in patients without any signs of microvascular abnormalities. The gut microbiota is a large, diverse colony of microorganisms that colonize the human intestine. Studies indicated that the gut microbiota is involved in the pathophysiological processes of DR and plays an important role in its development. On the one hand, numerous studies demonstrated the involvement of gut microbiota in retinal neurodegeneration. On the other hand, alterations in gut bacteria in RD patients can cause or exacerbate DR. The present review aims to underline the critical relationship between gut microbiota and DR. After a brief overview of the composition, function, and essential role of the gut microbiota in ocular health, and the review explores the concept of the gut-retina axis and the conditions of the gut-retina axis crosstalk. Because gut dysbiosis has been associated with DR, the review intends to determine changes in the gut microbiome in DR, the hypothesized mechanisms linking to the gut-retina axis, and its predictive potential.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the long-term outcomes and risk factors in children with steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS). Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on newly onset SSNS admitted to the Department of Pediatrics of the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2006 to December 2010 and 105 cases with follow-up for more than 10 years were included. Clinical data including general characteristics, clinical manifestation, laboratory tests, treatment and prognosis. The primary outcome was the clinical cure, and the secondary outcomes were relapse or ongoing immunosuppressive treatment within the last 1 year of follow-up and complications at the last follow-up. According to the primary outcome, the patients were divided into clinical cured group and uncured group. Categorical variables were compared between 2 groups using the χ2 or Fisher exact test, and continuous variables by t or Mann-Whitney U test. Multiple Logistic regression models were used for multivariate analysis. Results: Of the 105 children with SSNS, the age of onset was 3.0 (2.1, 5.0) years, and 82 (78.1%) were boys, 23(21.9%) were girls. The follow-up time was (13.1±1.4) years; 38 patients (36.2%) had frequently relapsing or steroid-dependent nephrotic syndrome (FRNS or SDNS) and no death or progression to end-stage kidney disease. Eighty-eight patients (83.8%) were clinically cured. Seventeen patients (16.2%) did not reach the clinical cure criteria, and 14 patients (13.3%) had relapsed or ongoing immunosuppressive treatment within the last year of follow-up. The proportion of FRNS or SDNS (12/17 vs. 29.5% (26/88), χ2=10.39), the proportion of treatment with second-line immunosuppressive therapy (13/17 vs. 18.2% (16/88), χ2=21.39), and the level of apolipoprotein A1 at onset ((2.0±0.5) vs. (1.7±0.6) g/L, t=2.02) in the uncured group were higher than those in the clinical cured group (all P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that patients treated with immunosuppressive therapy had an increased risk of not reaching clinical cure in the long term (OR=14.63, 95%CI 4.21-50.78, P<0.001). Of the 55 clinically cured patients who had relapsed, 48 patients (87.3%) did not relapse after 12 years of age. The age at last follow-up was 16.4 (14.6, 18.9) years, and 34 patients (32.4%) were ≥18 years of age. Among the 34 patients who had reached adulthood, 5 patients (14.7%) still relapsed or ongoing immunosuppressive treatment within the last year of follow-up. At the last follow-up, among the 105 patients, 13 still had long-term complications, and 8 patients were FRNS or SDNS. The proportion of FRNS or SDNS patients with short stature, obesity, cataracts, and osteoporotic bone fracture was 10.5% (4/38), 7.9% (3/38), 5.3% (2/38), and 2.6% (1/38), respectively. Conclusions: The majority of SSNS children were clinically cured, indicating a favorable long-term prognosis. History of treatment with second-line immunosuppressive therapy was the independent risk factor for patients not reaching the clinical cure criteria in the long term. While it is not uncommon for children with SSNS to persist into adulthood. The prevention and control of long-term complications of FRNS or SDNS patients should be strengthened.

Abstract
Platelets-related pathophysiological mechanism and clinical research is one of the research hot topics in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) at home and abroad. Increasing evidence has proved the association between thrombocytosis and COPD. Platelets activation interacts with COPD. Antiplatelet therapy has been shown to have significant effects on both short-term and long-term outcomes in COPD. Platelets inhibition may be an emerging therapeutic target for COPD, and antiplatelet therapy is expected to become an inexpensive and effective treatment for COPD. This article reviewed the research progress in platelets and COPD.

Abstract
Objective: To construct the geometric model of the pelvic floor by a two-dimensional equivalent mechanics method, and to explore the effect of the shape and position of pelvic floor organs and tissues on the biomechanical properties of the pelvic floor under different abdominal pressure. Methods: A 28-year-old healthy and symmetrical married infertile female volunteer was included. The pelvic floor tissue was scanned in the supine position using a 3.0T magnetic resonance scanner (Philips Company, Holland). Based on the method of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) two-dimensional parameter measurement and computer aided design, the geometric model and finite element model of the female pelvic floor were established, and the biomechanical characteristics of the pelvic floor support system under different abdominal pressure were analyzed. Results: In this study, four different working conditions of the pelvic floor force were simulated under 60, 99, 168, and 208 cmH2O (1 cmH2O=0.098 kPa) abdominal pressure loads. The trend was as follows: under the abdominal pressure load, the retrograde flexion of the uterus occurred, the cervical, the middle and upper vaginal segment and the levator anus muscle had the characteristic change of mechanical axial direction pointing to the sacrum and coccyx, and the deformation of the levator anus muscle in the horizontal direction was greater than that in the vertical direction. With the increase of the abdominal pressure, the maximum stress values of the pelvic floor whole system of healthy subjects under four different working conditions were 0.194 3, 0.389 6, 0.557 1, and 0.627 5 MPa, respectively, and the maximum displacement values were 10, 14, 21 and 25 mm, respectively. The maximum stress values of the cervical and vaginal middle and upper segment were 0.111 7, 0.161 8, 0.250 6, and 0.304 1 MPa, respectively, and the maximum displacement values were 3, 6, 9, and 11 mm, respectively. The maximum stress of the perineal body was 0.063 4, 0.119 6, 0.235 2, and 0.288 0 MPa, and the maximum displacement was 1, 2, 4, and 5 mm. The maximum stress values of the levator anus muscle were 0.194 3, 0.389 6, 0.557 1, and 0.627 5 MPa, and the maximum displacement values were 2, 4, 7, and 8 mm, respectively. The maximum stress and maximum displacement of pelvic organs increased with the increase of the abdominal pressure under different working conditions. The stress axial relationship of normal female pelvic floor was that the middle and upper segment of uterus and vagina mainly acted on the sacrococcyx and the levator anus muscle, and the lower vaginal segment acts on the perineal body. Conclusions: The two-dimensional equivalent mechanical modeling and finite element analysis of the female pelvic floor system can accurately reflect the biomechanical characteristics of the female pelvic floor, and the resultant stress direction of the pelvic organs points to the sacrum and coccyx. The sacrum and coccyx, levator anus and perineal body play important stress supporting roles in the pelvic floor system.

Abstract
Background:
In the diabetic condition, damage of Müller cells contributes to the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy.
Methods:
Primary rat retinal Müller cells (RRMC) were isolated and cultured under high glucose (50 nmol/L). The advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and sodium dithionite were applied to treat high-glucose administrated RRMC to mimic diabetic retinopathological conditions. Effect of BHTCM on diabetic retinopathological RRMC were evaluated. The expressions of aquaporin-4 (AQP4) and Kir4.1 were determined by double-labeling immunofluorescence and ELISA. Levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) were examined with ELISA. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity was also evaluated.
Results:
Retinal Muller cells were successfully isolated and identified. RRMC treated with AGEs and sodium dithionite resulted in increase of AQP4 and decrease of Kir4.1 in RRMC, increase of VEGF and IL-1β secretion, increase of LDH activity, decrease of PEDF secretion in culture medium, all of which in a dose-dependent or time-dependent manner. Post treating RRMC with AGEs and dithionite, BHTCM reversed changes in expression of AQP4 and Kir4.1 in RRMC, and reversed VEGF levels, PEDF and IL-1β secretion in culture medium. Moreover, BHTCM reversed the decrease of RRMC cell membrane integrity after AGEs and dithionite treatment.
Conclusions:
BHTCM protected Müller cells from diabetic damage through reducing abnormal changes of Kir4.1 and AQP4, inhibiting VEGF and IL-1β, increasing PEDF production, and maintaining cell membrane integrity. Therefore, BHTCM is a potential drug for the treatment of diabetic retinopathy, which can correct the function of Müller cells.

Abstract
BackgroundThe nomenclature from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is considered to identify more cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in general population, and patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) carry an excess risk for CVD.ObjectivesTo compare MAFLD with NAFLD in identifying CVD risk in RA patients.MethodsClinical data from a Chinese RA cohort were retrospectively analyzed. Hepatic steatosis was defined by abdominal ultrasound examination. CVD risk in RA patients was estimated by the Prediction for Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Risk in China.ResultsAmong 513 included RA patients, 78.4% were female and the mean ± SD age was 51.8 ± 12.6 years. The prevalence of MAFLD and NAFLD was 21.4% and 20.5%, respectively. 10.9% RA patients concomitated with CVD events and 32.4% had a high 10-year CVD risk. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that both MAFLD and NAFLD were associated with an increase in CVD events (MAFLD: AOR = 2.303 [95% CI 1.197, 4.429]; NAFLD: AOR = 2.478 [95% CI 1.185, 4.779] and high 10-year CVD risk (MAFLD: AOR = 3.184 [95% CI 1.777, 5.705]; NAFLD: AOR = 2.870 [95% CI 1.597, 5.156]; all p < 0.05). The NRI and IDI was -0.011 (95% CI -0.025, 0.003) and -0.002 (95% CI -0.007, 0.002) for CVD events, and 0.012 (95% CI -0.014, 0.038) and 0.005 (95% CI -0.003, 0.013; all p > 0.05) for high 10-year CVD risk, which indicated no additional CVD events and high 10-years CVD risk were identified when replacing NAFLD with MAFLD in RA patients.ConclusionBoth MAFLD and NAFLD are associated with an increased CVD risk which implies the importance of early detection and management of MAFLD or NAFLD in RA patients. However, new nomenclature of MAFLD identify no additional CVD risk in RA patients.Financial support:National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 81971527, 82171780 and 82101892), Science and Technology Program of Guangzhou (No. 202102010188 and 201904010088), and Guangdong Basic and Applied Basic Research Foundation (No. 2019A1515011928 and 2020A1515110061).Figure 1.The prevalence of MAFLD and NAFLD in RA patients with different stratification.The prevalence in different genders (A) and ages groups (B); The prevalence in different disease activity groups (C) and disease duration (D); remission (CDAI ≤ 2.8); active (CDAI > 2.8).Disclosure of InterestsNone declared

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the most common malignant tumors with a poor prognosis and high mortality. Surgical resection is the most effective treatment for PC; however, only a minority of patients have resectable tumors. Chemotherapy is the primary treatment for PC. Curcumin is a natural chemical substance obtained from plants with a wide range of pharmacological activities. Research evidence suggests that curcumin can influence PC development through multiple molecular mechanisms. The synthesis of novel curcumin analogs and preparation of curcumin nano-formulations are effective strategies to overcome the low bioavailability of curcumin in the treatment of PC. This review aims to summarize the mechanisms of action of curcumin in preclinical and clinical studies on PC and research progress in enhancing its bioavailability.

Abstract
Electric vehicles (EVs) have been developed to alleviate environmental pollution and climate change, but they leave behind a large amount of retired lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Since the replacement of LIBs from EVs will lead to considerable waste generation, improving the echelon utilization of retired LIBs is becoming increasingly critical. In this paper, we studied the thermo-electric-electrochemical performance of retired LiFePO4 (LFP) batteries using traditional methods, and found that the remaining capacity of retired LFP batteries has a strong correlation with their internal resistance. This result helped us to propose a rapid and elementary classification method for the calibration of the remaining capacity, and to then formulate a test protocol seeking to balance the time spent and the test cost. Besides, the cut-off voltage and charge-discharge current density have a significant impact on the calibration of the remaining capacity, especially for retired LFP batteries with low residual capacity. In the cycle life test and temperature reliability evaluation process, the results demonstrate that the retired LFP batteries have a good service life when under a lower current of charge/discharge, and the capacity reductions were 2.3%, 11.2% and 4.8% for retired LFP batteries with 80% state of health (SOH), 70% SOH and 60% SOH, respectively, after 500 cycles. Finally, considering the temperature reliability, voltage consistency and large current cycling performance of retired LFP batteries, there are still many challenges in their future echelon utilization.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to examine the various shapes and record the morphometric data of the glenoid cavity in a Chinese population. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 501 scapulae, 247 left and 254 right, were analyzed. We classified the shape of the glenoid cavity as type Ⅰ (pear-shaped), type Ⅱ (oval-shaped), type Ⅲ (teardrop-shaped), type Ⅳ (calabash-shaped) or type Ⅴ (inverted comma-shaped). Four defined parameters, the superior-inferior glenoid diameter (AB), upper anterior-posterior glenoid diameter (CD), lower anterior-posterior glenoid diameter (EF) and glenoid index (GI), were measured, and five shapes were classified via three-dimensional reconstruction. RESULTS The mean AB, CD, EF and GI values of the glenoid were 3.51±0.41 cm, 1.95±0.28 cm, 2.60±0.34 cm, and 1.35±0.12 cm, respectively. The AB value of type Ⅱ glenoid cavities was significantly smaller than that of type Ⅰ and Ⅲ glenoid cavities (P<0.05), but the GI value of type Ⅱ glenoid cavities was larger than that of type Ⅲ cavities (P<0.05). The CD value showed a difference between type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ glenoid cavities (P<0.05). For the EF parameter, the values of type Ⅲ glenoid cavities were significantly larger than those of type Ⅰ and Ⅱ glenoid cavities (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Measuring and observing the variety of shapes and sizes of the glenoid cavity in Chinese people is conducive to for better understand its morphological features. This information can also guide surgeons in the design and selection of suitable prostheses for total shoulder arthroplasty in the Chinese population in order to reduce postoperative complications.

Abstract
Background This study aims to explore a case of exophytic nasal papilloma with acute dacryocystitis as the first symptom. Case presentation A 72-year-old male patient complaining of “a 10-year history of tearing and purulent discharge from the right eye, with subsequent redness and pain in the inner canthus for three days” was initially diagnosed with acute dacryocystitis of the right eye. The patient was treated with anti-inflammatory therapy. However, the redness and swelling of the inner canthus continued to increase. An endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy of the right eye was performed under general anesthesia. A large amount of purulent secretion was drained during the operation. As a result, the swelling of the inner canthus was significantly reduced. A routine intra-operative biopsy of the wall of the lacrimal sac revealed an exophytic nasal papilloma. A second biopsy, 1 week after the surgery, revealed the same result. The patient was advised to undergo a dacryocystectomy once the swelling had subsided. However, the patient was reluctant to undergo this surgery and remains under clinical observation. Conclusion It is rare for an exophytic nasal papilloma, which is a benign tumor in the lacrimal sac, which has the potential for recurrence and malignant transformation, to manifest with acute dacryocystitis as the first symptom. Therefore, this case report could provide a reference for the future clinical diagnosis of this disease.

Abstract
AIM To develop a nomogram based on computed tomography (CT) texture analysis for the preoperative prediction of visceral pleural invasion in patients with cT1N0M0 lung adenocarcinoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS A dataset of chest CT containing lung nodules was collected from two institutions, and all surgically resected nodules were classified pathologically based on the presence of visceral pleural invasion. Each nodule on the CT image was segmented automatically by artificial-intelligence software and its CT texture features were extracted. The dataset was divided into training and external validation cohorts according to the institution, and a nomogram for predicting visceral pleural invasion was developed and validated. RESULTS Of a total of 313 patients enrolled from two independent institutions, 63 were diagnosed with visceral pleural invasion. Three-dimensional (3D) CT long diameter, skewness, and sphericity, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were identified as independent predictors for visceral pleural invasion by multivariable logistic regression. The nomogram based on multivariable logistic regression showed great discriminative ability, as indicated by a C-index of 0.890 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.867-0.914) and 0.864 (95% CI: 0.817-0.911) for the training and external validation cohorts, respectively. Additionally, calibration of the nomogram revealed good predictive ability, as indicated by the Brier score (0.108 and 0.100 for the training and external validation cohorts, respectively). CONCLUSIONS A nomogram was developed that could compute the probability of visceral pleural invasion in patients with cT1N0M0 lung adenocarcinoma with good calibration and discrimination. The nomogram has potential as a reliable tool for clinical evaluation and decision-making.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the changes in gene expression profiles of mouse scleral fibroblasts after myopia using single-cell RNA sequencing technology and explore the mechanism of dysfunction of the scleral fibroblasts in myopia. METHODS Normal healthy C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into negative control group and myopia model group (n=6), and in the latter group, form deprivation myopia was induced in the right eye using translucent goggles. Single cell capture was performed in the right eye to obtain the scleral fibroblasts for RNA sequencing. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened and GO and KEGG analyses were carried out for functionally significant enrichment analysis. RESULTS Comparison of the gene expression profiles identified a total of 169 DEGs between the myopia model group and the negative control group (P>0.05), including 112 up-regulated and 57 down-regulated genes. GO function analysis showed that the DEGs were involved in leukocyte aggregation, differentiation and adhesion and other inflammation-related terms; ATP metabolism and binding, redox process, oxidative stress response, oxidative phosphorylation and other GO terms related to hypoxia; protein folding, protein transport, negative regulation of protein metabolism, endoplasmic reticulum (ER), ER cavity, ER stress and other biological processes related to protein and ER stress. KEGG analysis analysis showed that the significantly enriched pathways of the DEGs involved mainly the TCA cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, PPAR signaling, oxidative phosphorylation and other pathways related to hypoxia; MAPK signaling pathway related to inflammation; leukocyte transendothelial transport; and protein-related Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, protein digestion and absorption pathways. CONCLUSION The dysfunction of the scleral fibroblasts occurs in myopia through complex mechanisms involving inflammation, hypoxia, protein regulation, and ER stress-related gene expression and pathway regulation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the respiratory motion of the scanned object during acquisition of digital chest tomosynthesis (CTS) using a linear model. OBJECTIVE Respiratory signals were generated by extracting the motion of the diaphragm from the projection radiographs. The diaphragm trajectory obtained by dynamic programming (DP) was modeled and fitted, and according to the fitting of the data, the base motion curve and respiratory signal curve of the diaphragm were separated. Multipurpose chest phantom data, simulated digital Xcat phantom data and the datasets of 3 clinical patients were used to validate the performance of the proposed method. OBJECTIVE The motion trajectory of the diaphragm extracted from multipurpose chest phantom simulation data was linear. The respiratory signals could be effectively extracted from the 3 datasets of clinical patients in different respiratory states. The correlation coefficient between the respiratory signal extracted in Xcat simulation experiment and the original design was 0.9797. OBJECTIVE The linear model can effectively obtain the respiratory motion information of patients in real time, thus enabling the physicians to make clinical decisions on a rescan.

Abstract
Background:Elevated serum IgG4 (sIgG4) and IgG4+ plasma cell tissue infiltration are outstanding features of IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD). However, elevated IgG4 is not specific for IgG4-RD. Our previous study reported elevated sIgG4 in 46% of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients (Mediators Inflamm 2014). Whether synovium from RA patients show similar characteristics of IgG4-RD and how about the clinical characteristics of RA patients with IgG4-related synovitis have not been reported yet.Objectives:To explore the serum and synovial IgG4 level and their correlation with disease indicators in RA.Methods:Active RA patients who underwent needle synovial biopsy with qualified synovium tissue were recruited. Demographic and clinical data were collected simultaneously. Synovium tissue were stained with H&E for Krenn synovitis score and immunohistochemistry for positive cell densities of CD20, CD38, IgG and IgG4. Serum IgG4 level was detected by immunonephelometry.Results:Among 96 RA patients recruited, 74 (77.1%) were female, the median age was 55.0 (46.0~61.0) years, disease duration was 42.0 (12.0~120.0) months and SDAI was 31.2 (22.1~42.8).The median sIgG4 was 1.38 (0.86~2.42) g/L and 49(51.0%) patients had elevated sIgG4. Compared with those with normal sIgG4, RA patients with elevated sIgG4 had significantly higher levels of PrGA [7 (5~8) vs. 6 (4~7)], ESR [90 (64~116) mm/h vs. 61 (38~75) mm/h], CRP [46.20 (17.20~74.20) mg/L vs. 18.90 (9.46~49.20) mg/L], DAS28-ESR [6.3 (5.6~7.4) vs. 5.7 (4.7~6.4)], SDAI [34.2 (25.3~48.8) vs. 27.8 (18.9~35.9)] and HAQ-DI [1.70 (0.61~2.28) vs. 0.88 (0.40~1.75), all P<0.05]. Meanwhile, they also showed significantly higher synovial counts of CD38+ plasma cells [1240(559~2290) /mm2 vs. 1020(354~1777) /mm2], IgG4+ plasma cells [106 (39~249) /mm2 vs. 68 (3~123) /mm2], and higher ratio of IgG4+/IgG+ plasma cells [26.3 (15.5~38.0) % vs. 15.2 (0.9~24.7) %, all P<0.05].The median IgG4+ plasma cells count was 83 (10~192) /mm2 and median ratio of IgG4+/IgG+ plasma cells was 19.1 (8.4~31.5)%. Both of them correlated positively with ESR, CRP and sIgG4 (r=0.216~0.394, all P<0.05). There were 46 (47.9%) patients with IgG4+ plasma cells >10/HPF, who had significant higher ESR [86 (50~109) mm/h vs. 65 (40~84) mm/h] and CRP [43.35 (16.93~77.85) mg/L vs. 26.15 (9.54~52.53) mg/L, both P<0.05] than those with IgG4+ plasma cells ≤10/HPF. There were 13 (13.5%) patients with the ratio of IgG4+/IgG+ plasma cells >40%, and 11 (11.5%) patients with both IgG4+ plasma cells >10/HPF and IgG4+/IgG+ plasma cells ratio >40% (IgG4-related synovitis). RA patients with IgG4-related synovitis had significant higher ESR than the others [106 (53~125) mm/h vs. 69 (41~91) mm/h, P<0.05].There were 10 (10.4%) patients showing elevated sIgG4 and IgG4-related synovitis. Four patients completed 1-year follow-up and all of them achieved remission at 6th month (SDAI≤3.3, Figure 1). Only one patient had radiographic progression at 12th month.Figure 1.Dynamic disease activity of 4 RA patients with elevated sIgG4 and IgG4-related synovitis during 1-year follow-up.Conclusion:IgG4-related synovitis can be found in RA patients. Their clinical significance in disease characteristics and outcomes are worth further study.Acknowledgements:This work was supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China (no. 81971527, 81801606 and 81801605), Guangdong Natural Science Foundation (no. 2018A030313541 and 2018A030313690), Guangdong Medical Scientific Research Foundation (no.

Abstract
Background:Cholesterol crystal embolism (CCE) syndrome is a multisystemic disorder caused by small arteries cholesterol crystal emboli subsequent to small pieces of atheromatous plaques from the aorta or other major arteries break off. CCE is often overlooked because it mimics symptoms of systemic vasculitis due to its clinical characteristics such as ulceration and gangrene of toes, livedo reticularis, renal insufficiency. Acute inflammatory reactants such as ESR, CRP may elevate in CCE patients since the cholesterol crystals trigger a foreign-body inflammatory reaction around the arterioles.Objectives:This study aimed to explore the clinical characteristics of CCE patients, to make rheumatologists learn more about this disease.Methods:Peer-reviewed articles in the electronic databases Medline, PubMed, Science Citation Index, China Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), China Journal Full Text Database (CNKI), and WANFANG Data were searched using the terms “cholesterol crystal embolism syndrome”, “cholesterol embolism”, “atherosclerotic embolism”, “atherosclerotic nephropathy”, or “CCE”. Only articles or case reports containing detailed medical records of CCE patients were included. We also included CCE patients in our department.Results:A 66-year-old male CCE patient presented with multiple ulceration and gangrene of toes and heels (Figure 1), subacute renal insufficiency, and elevated CRP and ESR. This patient had been considered as “suspected systemic vasculitis” and was referred to our rheumatology department. Another 39 Chinese CCE patients from the above databases were qualified for analysis. Among these 40 patients, 87.5% (35/40) were male and the mean age was 68±6 years. The most common involved was kidney and 90% (36/40) of patients presenting with renal insufficiency including the progressive increase of serum creatinine, hematuria, proteinuria, or sudden (or sharp) aggravation of hypertension. Next common involved was skin that occurred in 87.5% (35/40) of patients, especially in the toes and heels. For skin manifestations, blue toe syndrome occurred in 82.5% (33/40) of patients, ulceration or gangrene in 25% (10/40), and livedo reticularis in 15% (6/40). Additionally, 12.5% (5/40) showed ocular involvement such as visual impairment and visual field defect. In 2 patients, embolized cholesterol crystal in retinal arteries that is called Hollenhorst plaques was detected by fundoscopy. There were 62.5% (25/40) of patients having elevated CRP or ESR. The positive rate for skin or subcutaneous biopsies was 58% (11/19) and for kidney biopsies was 100% (6/6). The precipitating factors preceding the occurrence of classical symptoms such as blue toe syndrome, livedo reticularis and/or subacute renal insufficiency is important for CCE diagnosis especially for patients who had contraindications or were intolerant to biopsy. The precipitating factors include endovascular intervention (80%), vascular surgery (5%), and anticoagulant or thrombolytic therapy (2.5%). Only 12.5% (5/40) of patients were spontaneous and didn’t have any predisposing factors. General interventions of CCE included statins (82.5%), antiplatelets (32.5%), and dialysis (32.5%). Twelve patients (30%) received glucocorticoids and 75% (9/12) of them renal function improved and ulceration healed (Figure 1). Among 36 patients who presented with renal insufficiency, the renal function returned to normal after treatment in 2 patients (5.6%), but 27 patients (75%) still showed abnormal renal function even though somewhat improved, and 7 patients (19.4%) needed renal replacement therapy or dialysis for maintenance.Conclusion:This study reported CCE patients had high prevalence of renal insufficiency, blue toe syndrome, and ulceration or gangrene of toes, as well as elevated CRP or ESR, thus rheumatologists should be alert to this disease as one of the differential diagnosis of systemic vasculitis, especially for elderly patients with evidence of atherosclerosis who undergo a recent cardiovascular procedure.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract
Background:Passive transfer of ANA and anti-SSA has been reported in patients with common variable immunodeficiency disorder who received intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG). IVIG is also recommended to treat some special or life-threatening rheumatic diseases.Objectives:This study was aimed to explore whether any extractable nuclear antibodies (ENAs) were transferred to these rheumatic patients who received IVIG therapy.Methods:IVIG products of three batches were tested for ANA by using indirect immunofluorescent assay, and for ENAs by using line immunoassay (LIA) and chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA). These IVIG products were administrated to rheumatic patients at a dose of 20g/d×3 days (day1 to day3). Serum samples of these patients before IVIG (day0) and after IVIG (day4, day8, day10, day12, and more than one month) were tested by using LIA and CLIA. Anti-SSA was also detected using ELISA.Results:In these IVIG products, ANA was positive at a titer of 1:640 (cytoplasmic speckled) and 1:80 (speckled). Among 14 types of ENAs that could be tested using LIA, anti-SSA, anti-Ro52, anti-mitochondrial M2, and anti-centromere B antibodies were clearly detectable in IVIG products (Table 1). Likewise, another assay CLIA also detected the same positive autoantibodies in these products. LIA showed the highest concentration in anti-mitochondrial M2, while CLIA showed the highest concentration in anti-mitochondrial M2 and anti-Ro52. One 31-year-old male patient who was diagnosed as SLE (Figure 1) and one 72-year-old male patients who was diagnosed as necrotizing myositis received these IVIG products. Anti-SSA, anti-Ro52, anti-mitochondrial M2, but not anti-centromere B, were positive in the day4 serum samples, although all of these antibodies were negative at baseline (day0). The concentration of these antibodies decreased gradually as days passed and became undetectable around one month after IVIG.Table 1.The concentration of autoantibodies in intravenous immunoglobulin productsanti-SSAanti-Ro-52anti-mitochondrial M2anti-centromere BCut-offLIA(grey value)20±328±369±1019±4≥11CLIA (U/ml)333±107444±86434±66390±89>20ELISA (U/ml)90±13NANANA>20LIA, line immunoassay; CLIA, chemiluminescence immunoassay; ELISA, enzyme linked immunosorbent assayConclusion:This study preliminarily reported transient positivity of anti-SSA, anti-Ro52, and anti-mitochondrial M2 in rheumatic patients maybe because the passive transfer of these antibodies from IVIG products to the patients, although the potential influence of this transfer on the rheumatic diseases remained unknown.Figure 1.The concentration of autoantibodies in a 31-year-old male SLE patient receiving intravenous immunoglobulin at a dose of 20g/d×3 days (day1 to day3).

Abstract
Background:Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare and heterogeneous systemic vasculitis. Different patients or the same patient in different stages show different manifestations, which may lead to misdiagnosis and delay treatment.Objectives:To analyze the clinical characteristics in Chinese patients with EGPA.Methods:EGPA patients who fulfilled the 1990 ACR classification criteria were included between December 2003 and April 2020. The demographic and clinical characteristics were collected and analyzed retrospectively.Results:There were 52 EGPA patients recruited, 34 (65.4%) patients were males and the median age at onset was 47(38~55) years. The median duration from disease onset to diagnosis was 30(4~96) months. For initial symptoms, respiratory manifestations (61.5%) were the most common, including 42.3% patients beginning with asthma, followed by 21.2% with nose/paranasal sinuses manifestations. Respiratory medicine (53.8%) were the most common department at first visit, followed by rheumatology medicine (11.5%, Figure 1A). There were 44.2% EGPA patients definitely diagnosed at the department of rheumatology or after consultation by rheumatologists.During the whole disease process, the most common clinical manifestations were asthma (88.5%), then nose/ paranasal sinuses (84.6%), pulmonary (76.9%) and nervous system (61.5%) manifestations, followed by constitutional symptom (44.2%), heart (36.5%) and skin (23.1%) involvement. Only 9.6% patients had gastrointestinal tract involvement and 3.8% had renal involvement (Figure 1B).There were 46 (88.5%) patients showing the ratio of peripheral blood eosinophils >10% at diagnosis. Among the rest 6 patients, 3 had higher eosinophil ratio before diagnosis, while the other 3 patients had been treated with glucocorticoid before diagnosis, of whom 2 patients showed pathological eosinophil infiltration in lung or paranasal sinuses mucosa, respectively. There were 8(15.4%) patients with positive ANCA. Compared with EGPA patients with negative ANCA, they had lower incidence of asthma (62.5% vs. 93.2%), but higher incidence of constitutional symptoms (87.5% vs. 36.4%), arthralgia (50.0% vs. 6.8%) and renal involvement (25.0% vs. 0.0%), higher peripheral eosinophil count [2.06(0.80~4.51) ×109/L vs. 1.81(0.93~3.32) ×109/L], ESR [20(7~77) mm/h vs. 18(9~42) mm/h] and CRP [18.5(3.2~65.9) mg/L vs. 3.3(3.2~13.0) mg/L], higher Birmingham vasculitis activity score [17(10~22) vs. 13(9~15)] and vasculitis damage index [3(1~3) vs. 2(1~2), all P<0.05]. There were 21.2% EGPA patients showing poor prognostic factors according to five-factor score (FFS) and 34.6% patients according to the revised FFS.Conclusion:EGPA patients may have no asthma especially those with positive ANCA. Multi-disciplinary collaboration especially based on rheumatologists and pulmonologists should be emphasized for early identification and prompt treatment.Figure 1.Department at first visit (A) and clinical manifestations during the whole disease process of 52 Chinese EGPA patients(B).Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract
Background:Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a heterogeneous disease with variable prognosis. The cellular composition in synovium is the driving force of joint destruction in RA, and the predictive values of histopathological assessments on the clinical outcomes of RA have been identified. However, current synovial histopathological assessments mainly focus on the infiltrated immunocytes to distinguish RA synovium into different synovial pathotypes. Whether addition of stromal cells improve the accuracy of histopathological assessments remains unknow.Objectives:To distinguish synovial pathotypes of RA based on intercellular connection and explore their predictive value on one-year radiographic progression.Methods:Active RA patients who underwent needle synovial biopsy at baseline were recruited from a real-world prospective cohort. Clinical data were evaluated at baseline and 1, 3, 6, 12 months. Histopathologic assessments included Krenn synovitis score and semiquantitative score of immunohistochemical staining for CD20, CD38, CD4, CD8, CD68, CD31 and CD90. Cluster analysis was used to distinguish synovial pathotypes. The primary outcome was one-year radiographic progression defined as a change in total Sharp/van der Heijde modified score≥0.5 units.Results:1. Among 134 RA patients who received synovial biopsy at baseline and finished one-year follow-up, 105 had qualified synovial tissue. The mean age was 50.2±13.3 years with 77.1% female. The median disease duration was 24 (9-120) months. All patients were active RA, and 64.8%, 26.7% and 8.6% patients in high, moderate and low disease activity, respectively. There were 41 (39%) patients who have never been treated with corticosteroids or disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs.2. During one-year follow-up, there were 48.6%, 63.8%, 71.4%, and 69.5% patients achieved CDAI LDA target, and 12.4%, 30.5%, 34.3%, and 32.4% patients achieved CDAI remission after 1, 3, 6, and 12 months, respectively. A total of 33 (31.4%) patients had radiographic progression.3. All patients were divided into three clusters using cluster analysis based on the seven synovial cellular scores. Patients in cluster 1 (n=50, 47.6%) had higher scores of sublining CD68+ macrophages, CD31+ endothelial cells and CD90+ fibroblasts, thus named as myeloid-stromal pathotype. Patients in cluster 2 (n=26, 24.8%) had higher scores of CD20+ B cells, CD38+ plasma cells, CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells, thus named as lymphoid pathotype. Patients in cluster 3 (n=29, 27.6%) had lower scores of all seven cell types, thus named as pauci-cellular pathotype (Figure 1).4. RA patients with baseline synovial myeloid-stromal pathotype showed higher rate of one-year radiographic progression versus lymphoid and pauci-cellular pathotypes (48% vs. 16.4%, P<0.001), whereas there was no difference between lymphoid and pauci-cellular pathotypes (11.5% vs. 20.7, P=0.475). Adjusted for confounding factors including age, sex, smoking, disease duration, RF status, ACPA status, CDAI, HAQ-DI and mTSS at baseline, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that baseline synovial myeloid-stromal pathotype independently predicted one-year radiographic progression (AOR=3.602, 95%CI:1.257-10.324, P=0.017, Table 1).Conclusion:Baseline synovial myeloid-stromal pathotype in RA can predict one-year radiographic progression.Funding:This work was supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China (no. 81971527, 81801606 and 81801605), Guangdong Natural Science Foundation (no. 2018A030313541 and 2018A030313690), Guangdong Medical Scientific Research Foundation (no.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To propose a motion compensation reconstruction method based on robust principal component analysis (RPCA) to reduce the influence of streak artifacts on accurate estimation of interphase motion deformation fields. OBJECTIVE We propose a RPCA motion compensation reconstruction algorithm to improve the estimation of motion deformation fields based on the traditional MC-FDK algorithm. RPCA was used to decompose the cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images into low-rank and sparse components, and the motion deformation fields between different phase images were then estimated using Horn and Schunck optical flow method from the low-rank images to reduce the influence of striping artifacts on the accuracy of estimation of interphase motion deformation fields. The performance of the algorithm was evaluated using simulation data and real data. The simulation phantom data was obtained by back-projection of 4D-CT images acquired from Philips 16-slice spiral CT using MATLAB software programming according to the scanning geometry of Varian Edge accelerator. The real patient data were obtained using the Elekta Synergy system of CBCT scanning system with half-fan mode CB projection data from lung cancer patients. OBJECTIVE Compared with images reconstructed using the traditional MC-FDK algorithm, the reconstructed image using the proposed method had clearer tissue boundaries with reduced motion artifact was reduced. The results of phantom data reconstruction showed that compared with the MC- FDK algorithm, the proposed algorithms resulted in improvements of PSNR by 25.4% and SSIM by 7.6%; compared with the FDK algorithm, PSNR was improved by 37.9% and SSIM by 17.6%. OBJECTIVE The proposed algorithm can achieve accurate estimation of inter-phase motion deformation fields and improve the quality of the reconstructed CBCT images.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High myopia is a kind of ametropia with diopter more than -6.00D or axial length ≥26 mm. With the change of the modern environment, the incidence rate is increasing year by year. At present, the pathogenesis of high myopia is not clear. Some current studies indicate that it may be related to the environment and genetics. A Chinese patent medicine named Bu Jing Yi Shi Tablets (BJYST) has many functions including anti-oxidation, expansion of blood vessels, anti-inflammatory, immune regulation, inhibition of retinal photoreceptor cell apoptosis, and promotion of retinal repair. A large number of existing studies have shown that this prescription can relieve the clinical manifestations of high myopia and its complications, but its true efficacy and safety are still unclear. To certify this point, a protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis of BJYST for high myopia will be performed. METHODS AND ANALYSIS Articles that have been identified by electronically searching of 9 English and 5 Chinese databases from their inception to December 4, 2020 will be incorporated into the study. This study only adopts Chinese and English. Two researchers will take charge of completing the selection of research, the extraction of data as well as the assessment of research quality independently. The primary outcomes will be an average change in refractive error measured in diopters and an average change in axial length measured in millimeters. Data analysis will be performed via the RevMan 5.3 software, and Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) will help to assess the evidence level. RESULTS The results of this study will be published in a peer-reviewed journal. CONCLUSION This study will conclude whether BJYST is safe and effective in treating high myopia on the basis of evidence-based medicine. REGISTRATION The Open Science Framework (OSF) registration number is osf.io/dpk5b.

Abstract
1. Granulosa cells (GCs) are involved in folliculogenesis, follicular development, and atresia. Previous studies have shown that microRNA-181a-5p (miR-181a-5p) and sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) are involved in GC proliferation and apoptosis, and SIRT1 has been predicted as one target of miR-181a-5p. However, there are few studies with poultry.2. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression level of miR-181a-5p in granulosa layers during geese ovarian follicular development. A methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was performed to assess the viability of geese granulosa cells treated with miR-181a-5p mimic or inhibitor. The binding sites between the SIRT1 3'-UTR region and miR-181a-5p were evaluated using a luciferase reporter assay system. SIRT1 mRNA levels were detected using qRT-PCR after transfection with miR-181a-5p mimic and inhibitor.3. The miR-181a-5p suppressed geese GC viability and regulated the mRNA expression of viability-related genes in geese GCs. SIRT1 was a target gene of miR-181a-5p and miR-181a-5p suppressed its mRNA expression.4. The miR-181a-5p may target and inhibit SIRT1 expression, thus suppressing GC viability by regulating viability-related key genes.

Abstract
Advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs) are harmful factors that can damage the inner blood–retinal barrier (iBRB). Rat retinal microvascular endothelial cells (RMECs) were isolated and cultured, and identified by anti-CD31 and von Willebrand factor polyclonal antibodies. Similarly, rat retinal Müller glial cells (RMGCs) were identified by H&E staining and with antibodies of glial fibrillary acidic protein and glutamine synthetase. The transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) value was measured with a Millicell electrical resistance system to observe the leakage of the barrier. Transwell cell plates for co-culturing RMECs with RMGCs were used to construct an iBRB model, which was then tested with the addition of AGEs at final concentrations of 50 and 100 mg/L for 24, 48, and 72 h. AGEs in the in vitro iBRB model constructed by RMEC and RMGC co-culture led to the imbalance of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and pigment epithelial derivative factor (PEDF), and the permeability of the RMEC layer increased because the TEER decreased in a dose- and time-dependent manner. AGEs increased VEGF but lowered PEDF in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The intervention with AGEs led to the change of the transendothelial resistance of the RMEC layer likely caused by the increased ratio of VEGF/PEDF.

Abstract
Background:1. Hyperuricemia is often associated with abnormal lipid metabolism. We reported premenopausal female systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients had elevated blood UA levels[1]. Do these patients also have hyperlipidemia?2. Estrogen has certain effect on blood lipid metabolism, whether the blood lipid levels of premenopausal female SLE patients who have the background of hyperestrogen function are affected by estrogen and its receptors?Objectives:To investigate the relationships between blood lipids and serum UA level, estrogen receptors (ERs) as well as ER antibodies in premenopausal female SLE patients.Methods:123 premenopausal female SLE patients (SLE group) were divided into normal CH group (n=93) and high CH group (n=30, CH>5.17mmol /l), and 40 healthy premenopausal females served as the control group. The blood lipid levels of the SLE group and the control group were compared, and the blood levels of lipid, UA, estrogen, ERs and ER antibodies were compared between the two SLE subgroups. Linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of blood CH.Results:1. In SLE group, the blood level of TG was significantly higher than that of the control group (1.67±1.10 vs. 0.87±0.47, P<0.001), while the levels of blood CH, LDL, HDL were comparable to the control group (all with P> 0.05).2. The mean blood CH level of the SLE patients with hyperuricemia was 5.57 ± 2.44mmol/l, which was significantly higher than that of patients with normal UA level (3.98 ± 1.30mmol / l, P <0.001).3. The serum UA, CRE, CH, TG, LDL, and 24-hour urinary protein quantification (24h UPRO) in the high CH SLE subgroup were significantly higher than those in the normal CH SLE subgroup (all with P <0.05). There were no significant differences in serum estrogen, ERs and ER antibodies between the two subgroups, Table 1.4. Linear regression showed that serum UA level and 24h UPRO were the dangerous effects of elevated blood CH in the premenopausal female SLE patients, Table 2.Conclusion:Compared with healthy female of the same age range, the premenopausal female SLE patients are more likely to have abnormal lipid metabolism, which is related to kidney damage and abnormal UA metabolism.References:[1]Haijun Liu, Xiaoyan Cai, Lie Dai, et al.

Abstract
Background:Focal lymphocytic sialadenitis defined as focus score (FS) ≥1 on labial gland (LG) biopsy plays an integral role in various classification criteria of Sjögren’s syndrome (SS). However, suspected patients often hesitate to receive a biopsy; and rheumatologists hope a decision for biopsy based on a high predicted incidence of FS≥1, or against biopsy based on an absolutely low predicted incidence.Objectives:To build a decision model of LG biopsy based on B-mode ultrasonography (US) with shear-wave elastography (SWE) in patients with suspected SS.Methods:Patients who had at least one symptom of oral dryness (based on AECG questions) or had anti-SSA positive were recruited and signed a written informed consent. Bilateral parotid (PG) and submandibular glands (SMG) were examined with B-mode US which graded the echostructure of each gland on a scoring system scaled 0 to 4 (US score), and SWE which described the elasticity of glands. Then LG biopsy was performed.Results:(1)Ninety-one patients whose mean age was 43±15 years were enrolled and 93% of them were female. Anti-SSA was detected in 77 patients (85%) and 28 patients (31%) showed unstimulated whole saliva flow rate (USFR)≤0.1mL/mim. There were 57 patients (63%) showing FS≥1 on LG biopsy. Sixty-three patients (69%) were classified as primary SS, 10 patients (10%) were secondary SS, 18 patients (20%) were uCTD and one patient was RA without SS.(2)US scores were equal between PG and SMG in 59 patients (65%), while the rest patients showed different US scores between two glands: 7 patients (8%) showed higher US scores in PG and 25 patients (27%) showed higher scores in SMG. In each pair of glands US scores were equal. SWE values in PG or SMG of US score 1, 2 or 3 were significantly higher than those of US score 0, while SWE values in glands of US score 4 became declined and showed no significant difference from those with US score 0 (Figure 1A).(3)Heatmap showed US scores in either major salivary gland of patients with FS≥1 on LG biopsy were significantly higher than those with FS<1 (all p<0.001, Figure 1B). ROC curve showed a total US score (including bilateral PG and SMG) ≥9 and a total SWE value (including bilateral PG and SMG)≥30 could significantly recognize patients with FS≥1, respectively with specificity of 100% and 93% (Figure 1C). In this cohort, among 51 patients with a total US score ≥9 and/or a total SWE value≥30, 49 patients (96%) showed FS≥1 on LG biopsy; while two outliers showed total US scores were both 8 although combined SWE values≥30. Other 29 patients showed total US scores≤6 with total SWE values <30 and only one patient (3%) showed FS≥1 on LG biopsy. The remaining 11 patients showed total US scores were 8 with total SWE values <30 and 64% of them (n=7) showed FS≥1.Conclusion:A preliminary decision model of LG biopsy based on B-mode US with SWE in patients with suspected SS were built in Table 1. For example, rheumatologists should reassess the need for biopsy if the incidence of FS≥1 would be <5%. Another cohort of patients with suspected SS is needed for further validation.Table 1.A preliminary decision model of LG biopsy based on B-mode US with SWE in patients with suspected SSAlgorithm*Comments on the decision of LG biopsyA total US score≥9 and/or a total SWE≥30The specificity of FS≥1 on biopsy is >93%. Biopsy is recommended. In some special cases (e.g. contraindicated to biopsy), this item is a potential alternative to LG biopsy.A total US score 7~8 with a total SWE <30It is hard to predict the result of FS, so biopsy is strongly recommended.A total US score≤6 with a total SWE <30The incidence of FS≥1 would be <5%. Rheumatologists should reassess the need for biopsy.References:NoneDisclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract
As the rapid development of minimally invasive techniques, anesthesia, and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS), anorectal day surgery receiving more and more attention by improving efficiency of medical care while reducing cost and hospitalized infection. However, day surgery also faces the challenge of completing the whole process from patient admission to discharge within 24 hours. Therefore, establishing a reasonable and detailed day surgery process is the cornerstone to guarantee safe medical practice and patients satisfaction. National Clinical Research Center for Geriatric Disorders (Xiangya), together with China Ambulatory Surgery Alliance formulates the clinical practice guideline for anorectal day surgery 2019 edition. Here we make some interpretations of the guidelines on the detailed process of anorectal day surgery, including indication, preoperative examination, preoperative risk evaluation, health education, assessment of day surgery anesthesia and before leaving postanesthesia care unit (PACU), postoperative management, assessment of discharge and follow-up, for the convenience of various medical centers.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the echocardiographic features of fetal Ebstein's anomaly (EA) and to analyze its clinical outcome and prognosis. Methods: A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the echocardiographic features in fetus with EA. Thirty-five EA fetuses (EA group) and 35 normal fetuses matched for gestational age (control group) were enrolled. The main echocardiographic parameters of the two groups were collected and compared. According to the direction of blood flow in the ductus arteriosus (DA),fetuses in EA group were divided into DA reverse perfusion subgroup (n=11) and normal DA blood flow subgroup (n=24). The echocardiographic parameters and GOSE scores were compared between the two subgroups. The echocardiographic features of EA and the difference of fetal hemodynamics were summarized,and the clinical outcome of EA fetus was evaluated by GOSE score. Chi-square test Rank sum test or t test were used for comparison between groups. Results: Nineteen (54%) of the 35 patients terminated the pregnancy and 16 (46%) continued pregnancy until delivery during follow-up. Compared with the normal fetus group,the cardiothoracic ratio was significantly higher (0.47±0.11 vs. 0.34±0.01, t=6.640, P<0.01) and the transverse diameter ratio of right atrium to left atrium was significantly greater (1.42±0.38 vs. 1.08±0.11, t=5.030, P<0.01) in the EA group, and the ratio of pulmonary artery diameter to aortic diameter was significantly lower in the EA group (1.04±0.21 vs. 1.20±0.15, t=-3.770, P<0.01). Compared with the normal DA blood flow subgroup,the GOSE scores ≥ 1.5 was more frequently seen (7/11 vs. 3/24, P=0.004) and the ratio of pulmonary artery diameter to aortic diameter was significantly lower (0.91±0.18 vs. 1.24±0.20, t=-4.696, P=0.002) in the DA reverse perfusion subgroup. Six of the 16 delivery cases underwent EA corrective surgery after birth with 100% successful rate of operation. Among the 6 cases,two had preoperative GOSE score of ≥1.5 who were considered as severe cases,and four had low GOSE score of<1.5. The remaining ten cases who had not undergone the corrective surgery were followed up routinely. Conclusion: Prenatal hemodynamics of EA combined with GOSE score can more accurately evaluate the severity and prognosis of fetal EA, reduce unnecessary labor induction, and improve postpartum cure rate and clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Time activity pattern refers to the time and behavior of people at different locations. The knowledge of time-activity pattern is essential for air pollution exposure assessment when direct personal exposure monitoring can't not be conducted, because air pollutant concentrations may vary significantly by location and activity. This review is focused on the survey method for human time-activity pattern and its application in the exposure assessment of air pollutants. After comparing the diary-reported trips and Global Positioning System (GPS) recording method, we believed that diary-reported trips were more reliable in describing comprehensive and detail records of the behavior and environmental circumstances while GPS-recorded trend to maintain sound information of time, location and transportations. Meanwhile, according to different subjects, the air pollution exposure model could be divided for population and individuals. There were great difference between two types of model in many areas, including the required information about time, activity and microenvironment.

Abstract
The burden of healthcare-associated infections (HCAIs) has traditionally been measured using clinical and economic outcomes. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 18 patients or their caregivers affected by HCAI caused by multidrug-resistant organisms to better understand the human impact of HCAI. Most patients had misconceptions about HCAI and antimicrobial resistance, leading to strong negative feelings towards HCAIs despite positive views of their healthcare providers. Communication issues across power imbalances need to be addressed to help deal with trauma of HCAIs. A holistic approach to HCAIs incorporating patient perspectives will likely help guide policymakers developing solutions to improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine whether chronic hyperglycaemia predisposes patients to dehydration, which may promote neurological deterioration, and to investigate whether dehydration control improves functional outcome. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study included 355 patients hospitalized with acute ischaemic stroke and diabetes mellitus who fulfilled the glycaemic gap ≤0. We used the following cut-offs: (i) no chronic hyperglycaemia (glycated haemoglobin A1c [HbA1c] < 7%) and (ii) chronic hyperglycaemia (HbA1c ≥ 7%). The chronic hyperglycaemic patients were randomly divided into the control group and the hydration group. Hydration therapy was only initiated in the hydration group. The blood urea nitrogen (BUN)/creatinine (Cr) ratio was used as an indicator of dehydration. Stroke severity on admission and discharge was assessed by means of National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). RESULTS The mean baseline BUN/Cr ratios were higher in the control group and hydration group than in the no chronic hyperglycaemia group. The mean BUN/Cr ratio decreased from 91.22 ± 29.95 on the first day to 77.03 ± 18.23 on the third day (P < .001) in the hydration group. On the third day after admission, there was no significant difference in the BUN/Cr ratio between the hydration group and the no chronic hyperglycaemia group (P = .831). Moreover, neurological deterioration was highest in the control group (33.6%, 36/107), followed by the hydration group (10.5%, 11/105) and the no chronic hyperglycaemia group (5.6%, 8/143). CONCLUSIONS Chronic hyperglycaemia was associated with the admission NIHSS score and neurological deterioration after excluding the effect of stress hyperglycaemia. Furthermore, hydration therapy may help prevent neurological deterioration.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the gene mutations and clinical features of patients with Noonan syndrome and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Method: Determined the mutation domain in five cases diagnosed with Noonan syndrome and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and identified the relationship between the mutant domain and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy by searching relevant articles in pubmed database. Result: Three mutant genes (PTPN11 gene in chromosome 12, RIT1 gene in chromosome 1 and RAF1 gene in chromosome 3) in five cases all had been reported to be related to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The reported hypertrophic cardiomyopathy relevant genes MYPN, MYH6 and MYBP3 had also been found in case 1 and 2. Patients with same gene mutation had different clinical manifestations. Both case 4 and 5 had RAF1 mutation (c.770C>T). However, case 4 had special face, low IQ, mild pulmonary artery stenosis, and only mild ventricular hypertrophy. Conclusion: Noonan syndrome is a genetic heterogeneity disease. Our study identified specific gene mutations that could result in Noonan syndrome with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy through molecular biology methods. The results emphasize the importance of gene detection in the management of Noonan syndrome.
