Abstract
Aiming at the problems of low extraction efficiency, high false detection rate, weak Raman signal and serious interference by fluorescence signal in the detection of microplastics in marine organisms, this paper establishes a set of rapid detection methods for microplastics in organisms, including confocal Raman spectroscopy, fluorescence imaging, differential Raman spectroscopy, and rapid identification of microplastics based on the ELM modeling assistance. Firstly, to address the problem of low extraction efficiency of microplastics, we explored and optimized the digestion method of tissues, which effectively improved the digestion effect of fish tissues and excluded the influence of tissues on microplastics detection. Aiming at the problems of high misdetection rate and low pre-screening efficiency of microplastics, fluorescence imaging technology is adopted to realize the visualization and detection of microplastics, which effectively improves the detection efficiency and precision of microplastics. Based on the confocal microscopy Raman spectroscopy detection system built independently in the laboratory, using 784/785 nm as the excitation light, the differential Raman spectroscopy technique effectively excludes the interference of fluorescence signals in the Raman spectra, and improves the signal-to-noise ratio of the Raman spectra, and the recovery rate of the Raman characteristic peaks in the differential Raman spectroscopy reaches 100 % compared to the traditional baseline correction method, which is 33.3 % higher than that of the baseline correction method. Finally, a microplastic identification model is constructed based on ELM to assist in realizing the rapid and accurate identification of microplastics. The more complete detection method of microplastics in marine organisms proposed in this paper can realize the rapid and nondestructive, efficient and accurate detection of microplastics in fish, which can help to further promote the development of marine microplastics monitoring technology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Giant cell tumors of bone (GCTBs) are rare, aggressive tumors, and the proximal humerus is a relatively rare location for GCTBs; limited evidence exists on which surgical approaches and reconstruction techniques are optimal. In the largest case series to date, we evaluated the recurrence rate of proximal humeral GCTBs and the functional outcomes of different resection and reconstruction options in this multicenter study. METHODS All 51 patients included in this study received initial surgical treatment for proximal humeral GCTBs from January 2007 to December 2020, with a minimum 2-year follow-up period. Local recurrence and functional outcomes were statistically analyzed in relation to demographic, clinical, and primary surgical variables. Functional outcomes were reported by patients and were assessed by the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society score and QuickDASH instrument (shortened version of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand instrument). RESULTS The mean follow-up period was 81.5 months (range, 30-191 months), and the overall recurrence rate was 17.6% (9 of 51 patients). The majority of recurrences (n = 7) occurred in the first 2 years of follow-up. The intralesional curettage group (n = 23) showed a statistically significant difference in the recurrence rate compared with the en bloc resection group (n = 28) (34.8% vs. 3.6%, P = .007). Among shoulders receiving en bloc resection, 16 were reconstructed with hemiarthroplasty; 8, reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) with allograft-prosthetic composite (APC) reconstruction; and 4, arthrodesis. On the basis of intention-to-treat analysis, the mean functional Musculoskeletal Tumor Society scores of the groups undergoing curettage, rTSA with APC, hemiarthroplasty, and arthrodesis were 26.0 ± 3.1, 26.0 ± 1.7, 20.3 ± 2.8, and 22.5 ± 1.3, respectively (P < .001 [with P < .001 for curettage vs. hemiarthroplasty and P = .004 for rTSA with APC vs. hemiarthroplasty]) and the mean QuickDASH scores were 14.0 ± 11.0, 11.6 ± 4.5, 33.1 ± 11.8, and 21.6 ± 4.7, respectively (P < .001 [with P < .001 for curettage vs. hemiarthroplasty and P = .003 for rTSA with APC vs. hemiarthroplasty]). CONCLUSIONS On the basis of our data, en bloc resection followed by reverse shoulder arthroplasty showed a lower recurrence rate and no significant difference in functional outcome scores for proximal humeral GCTBs compared with intralesional curettage. Therefore, we believe that rTSA with APC may be reasonable for the initial treatment of proximal humeral GCTBs.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical manifestations, pathology, and gene variant characteristics in children with progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 3 (PFIC3). Methods: This retrospective study assessed the clinical manifestations, pathological features, gene variants, and prognosis data of 11 children with PFIC3 hospitalized in the Department of Hepatology, Fifth Medical Center, PLA General Hospital, from January 2015 to December 2022. Panel or whole exome sequencing was performed on the probands, followed by Sanger sequencing for verification within the family. Detected pathogenic variants were compared with known disease databases. Additionally, the new variants were predicted the deleteriousness and protein structure using relevant software to evaluate their pathogenicity. Results: Among the 11 PFIC3 children, 8 were boys and 3 were girls. The age of onset was 3.1 (0.2, 15.6) years. The main complaint of onset was different in the 11 patients;5 of them were abnormal liver function, 3 of them were liver and spleen enlargement, 2 of them were abdominal distension, and 1 of them was jaundice. alanine aminotransferase, asparate aminotransferase and r-glutamyltransferase increased in all the patients, which were(113±40), (150±44) and (270±156) U/L respectively. Moreover, direct bilirubin increased in 9 patients, and cholestasis was showed in 8 patients. All patients showed liver fibrosis on imaging, and 8 patients had cirrhosis. The pathological features of 8 cases by liver biopsy were as follows: 8 cases of fibrosis in the portal area, 7 cases of small bile duct hyperplasia, 4 cases of positive copper staining, and 5 cases of cirrhosis. A total of 17 ABCB4 gene variants were detected, including 9 new variants: c.589C>T(p.Q197X), c.1230+1G>A(Splicing), c.2914G>A(P.D972N), c.1058G>A(p.C353Y), c.956G>T(p.G319V), c.473T>A(p.L158Q), c.164T>C(p.L55S), c.2493G>C(p.R831S), and c.1150G>C(p.G384R). All 11 patients were treated with ursodeoxycholic acid and followed up for 5.1(0.6, 7.4) years. Among them, 4 cases of cirrhosis progressed continuously, 3 cases had liver transplantations, and the remaining 4 cases were stable after medical treatment. Conclusions: Children with PFIC3 have early onset, diverse clinical manifestations, rapid progression of fibrotic and cholestasis, as well as poor prognosis. Genetic testing helps to confirm the diagnosis.

Abstract
It is estimated that chronic neuropathic pain conditions exhibit up to 10% prevalence in the general population, with increased incidence in females. However, nonsteroidal inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are ineffective, and currently indicated prescription treatments such as opioids, anticonvulsants, and antidepressants provide only limited therapeutic benefit. In the current work, we extended previous studies in male rats utilizing a paradigm of central Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-dependent, NSAID-unresponsive neuropathic-like pain hypersensitivity to male and female C57BL/6N mice, uncovering an unexpected hyperalgesic phenotype in female mice following intrathecal (IT) LPS. In contrast to previous reports in female C57BL/6J mice, female C57BL/6N mice displayed tactile and cold allodynia, grip force deficits, and locomotor hyperactivity in response to IT LPS. Congruent with our previous observations in male rats, systemic inhibition of 12/15-Lipoxygenases (12/15-LOX) in female B6N mice with selective inhibitors - ML355 (targeting 12-LOX-p) and ML351 (targeting 15-LOX-1) - completely reversed allodynia and grip force deficits. We demonstrate here that 12/15-LOX enzymes also are expressed in mouse spinal cord and that 12/15-LOX metabolites produce tactile allodynia when administered spinally (IT) or peripherally (intraplantar in the paw, IPLT) in a hyperalgesic priming model, similar to others observations with the cyclooxygenase (COX) metabolite Prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2 ). Surprisingly, we did not detect hyperalgesic priming following IT administration of LPS, indicating that this phenomenon likely requires peripheral activation of nociceptors. Collectively, these data suggest that 12/15-LOX enzymes contribute to neuropathic-like pain hypersensitivity in rodents, with potential translatability as druggable targets across sexes and species using multiple reflexive and non-reflexive outcome measures.

Abstract
Monoterpenes are typical aroma components in muscat grapes and wines, closely related to its geographical origins. However, the mechanism underlying the geographical differences of monoterpenes remains to be elucidated, especially in the Chinese viticulture regions. This study investigated the diversity of six Chinese viticultural vineyards (YT, XF, SS, XX, WW and CL) in the monoterpene composition of Vitis vinifera L. cv.'Muscat Hamburg' grapes and the resulted wines. Monoterpenes were analyzed by HS-SPME- GC-MS. The total amount of free and bound monoterpenes varied dramatically between grapes of different vineyards, and their contents were obviously higher in YT region grapes. The OAVs for 18 monoterpenes of grapes from the YT vineyard were relative higher than those of other regions, and the floral odor could distinguish grapes from different regions. The total free monoterpenes were highest in the YT region wine. Concentrations of total bound monoterpenes ranged from 711.13 μg/L (XF region) to 1078.30 μg/L (CL region). A correlation analysis showed that all monoterpenes showeda positive correlation with mean relative humidity, sum rainfall, and a negative correlation with sum duration of sunshine and mean temperature. This study would provide some new insights to understand the geographical differences of monoterpenes, and the results would facilitate the effective viticultural treatment of grapes to improve the quality of the aroma.

Abstract
Aeromonas is a ubiquitous aquatic bacteria, and it is a significant factor contributing to meat spoilage during processing and consumption. The abilities of Aeromonas salmonicida 29 and 57, which exhibit spoilage heterogeneity, to secrete protease, lipase, hemolysin, gelatinase, amylase, and lecithinase were confirmed by plate method. A total of 3948 proteins were identified by ITRAQ in extracellular secretions of A. salmonicida, and 16 proteases were found to be potentially related to spoilage ability. The complete genome sequence of A. salmonicida 57 consists of one circular chromosome and three plasmids, while A. salmonicida 29 consists of one circular chromosome, without a plasmid. Transcriptomic analysis revealed a significant number of DEGs were up-regulated in A. salmonicida 29, which were mainly enriched in metabolic pathways (e.g., amino acid metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism), indicating that A. salmonicida 29 had better potential to decompose and utilize nutrients in meat. Six protease genes (2 pepB, hap, pepA, ftsI, and pepD) were excavated by combined ITRAQ with transcriptome analysis, which potentially contribute to bacterial spoilage ability and exhibit universality among other dominant spoilage bacteria. This investigation provides new insights and evidence for elucidating metabolic and spoilage phenotypic differences and provides candidate genes and strategies for future prevention and control technology development.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the clinical and genetic characteristics of asparagine synthase deficiency. Methods: Case series studies. Retrospective analysis and summary of the clinical data of 6 cases with asparagine synthase deficiency who were diagnosed by genetic testing and admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from May 2017 to April 2023 were analyzed retrospectively. The main clinical features, laboratory and imaging examination characteristics of the 6 cases were summarized, and the gene variation sites of them were analyzed. Results: All of the 6 cases were male, with onset ages ranging from 1 month to 1 year and 4 months. All of the 6 cases had cognitive and motor developmental delay, with 3 cases starting with developmental delay, 3 cases starting with convulsions and later experiencing developmental arrest or even regression. All of 6 cases had epilepsy, in whom 2 cases with severe microcephaly developed epileptic encephalopathy in the early stages of infancy with spasms as the main form of convulsions, 4 cases with mild or no microcephaly gradually evolved into convulsions with no fever after multiple febrile convulsions with focal seizures, tonic clonic seizures and tonic seizure as the main forms of convulsions. Three cases of 4 gradually developed into stagnation or even regression of development and ataxia after multiple convulsions with no fever. There were normal cranial imaging in 2 cases, dysplasia of the brains in 1 cases, frontal lobe apex accompanied by abnormal white matter signal in the frontal lobe and thin corpus callosum in 1 case, thin corpus callosum and abnormal lateral ventricular morphology in 1 case, and normal in early stage, but gradually developing into cerebellar atrophy at the age of 5 years and 9 months in 1 case. Two cases underwent visual evoked potential tests, the results of which were both abnormal. Three cases underwent auditory evoked potential examination, with 1 being normal and 2 being abnormal. All of 6 cases had variations in the asparagine synthase gene, with 2 deletion variations and 7 missense variations. The variations of 2 cases had not been reported so far, including c.1341_1343del and c.1283A>G, c.1165_1167del and c.1075G>A. The follow-up time ranged from 3 months to 53 months. Two cases who had severe microcephaly died in infancy, while the other 4 cases with mild or no microcephaly were in survival states until the follow-up days but the control of epilepsy was poor. Conclusions: Asparagine synthase deficiency has a certain degree of heterogeneity in clinical phenotype. Children with obvious microcephaly often present as severe cases, while children with mild or no microcephaly have relatively mild clinical manifestations. The variation of asparagine synthetase gene is mainly missense variation.

Abstract
A good old gateway theory that electronic-cigarettes (e-cigarettes) are widely recognized as safer tobacco substitutes. In actuality, demographics also show that vaping cannibalizes smoking, the best explanation of the data is the "common liability". However, the utilization of e-cigarette products remains a controversial topic at present. Currently, there has been a widespread and substantial growth in e-cigarette use worldwide owing to their endless new flavors and customizable characteristics. Furthermore, e-cigarette has grown widespread among smokers as well as non-smokers, including adolescents and young adults. And some studies have shown that e-cigarette users are at greater risk to start using combustible cigarettes while e-cigarettes use was also observed the potential benefits to people who want to quit smoking or not. Although it is true that e-cigarettes generally contain fewer toxic substances than combustible cigarettes, this does not mean that the chemical composition in e-cigarettes aerosols poses absolutely no risks. While concerns about toxic substances in e-cigarettes and their widespread use in the population are reasonable, it is also crucial to consider that e-cigarettes have been associated with the potential for promoting smoking cessation and the clinically relevant improvements in users with smoking-related pathologies. Meanwhile, there is still short of understanding of the health impacts associated with e-cigarette use. Therefore, in this review, we discussed the health impacts of e-cigarette exposure on oral, nasal, pulmonary, cardiovascular systems and brain. We aspire for this review to change people's previous perceptions of e-cigarettes and provide them with a more balanced perspective. Additionally, we suggest appropriate adjustments on regulation and policy for e-cigarette to gain greater public health benefits.

Abstract
Glioma is the most common brain malignancy, characterized by high morbidity, high mortality, and treatment-resistance. Inverted CCAAT box Binding Protein of 90 kDa (ICBP90) has been reported to be involved in tumor progression and the maintenance of DNA methylation. Herein, we constructed ICBP90 over-expression and knockdown glioma cell lines, and found that ICBP90 knockdown inhibited glioma cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. ICBP90 silencing potentially enhanced cellular sensitivity to cis-platinum (DDP) and exacerbated DDP-induced pyroptosis, manifested by the elevated levels of gasdermin D-N-terminal and cleaved caspase 1; whereas, ICBP90 over-expression exhibited the opposite effects. Consistently, ICBP90 knockdown inhibited tumor growth in an in vivo mouse xenograft study using U251 cells stably expressing sh-ICBP90 and oe-ICBP90. Further experiments found that ICBP90 reduced the expression of Dickkopf 3 homolog (DKK3), a negative regulator of β-catenin, by binding its promoter and inducing DNA methylation. ICBP90 knockdown prevented the nuclear translocation of β-catenin and suppressed the expression of c-Myc and cyclin D1. Besides, DKK3 over-expression restored the effects of ICBP90 over-expression on cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and DDP sensitivity. Our findings suggest that ICBP90 inhibits the expression of DKK3 in glioma by maintaining DKK3 promoter methylation, thereby conducing to ICBP90-mediated carcinogenesis and drug insensitivity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Southwest China is one of the largest karst regions in the world. Karst environment is relatively fragile and vulnerable to human activities. Due to the discharge of sewage and domestic garbage, the karst system may be polluted by pathogenic bacteria. The detection of bacterial distribution and identification of phage capable of infecting them is an important approach for environmental assessment and resource acquisition. METHODS Bacteria and phages were isolated from karst water in southwest China using the plate scribing and double plate method, respectively. Isolated phage was defined by transmission electron microscopy, one-step growth curve and optimal multiplicity of infection (MOI). Genomic sequencing, phylogenetic analysis, comparative genomic and proteomic analysis were performed. RESULTS A Klebsiella quasipneumoniae phage was isolated from 32 isolates and named KL01. KL01 is morphologically identified as Caudoviricetes with an optimal MOI of 0.1, an incubation period of 10 min, and a lysis period of 60 min. The genome length of KL01 is about 45 kb, the GC content is 42.5%, and it contains 59 open reading frames. The highest average nucleotide similarity between KL01 and a known Klebsiella phage 6939 was 83.04%. CONCLUSIONS KL01 is a novel phage, belonging to the Autophagoviridae, which has strong lytic ability. This study indicates that there were not only some potential potentially pathogenic bacteria in the karst environment, but also phage resources for exploration and application.

Abstract
PURPOSE Thyroid function is closely related to the prognosis of cardiovascular diseases. This study aimed to explore the predictive value of thyroid hormones for adverse cardiovascular outcomes in left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC). METHODS This longitudinal cohort study enrolled 388 consecutive LVNC patients with complete thyroid function profiles and comprehensive cardiovascular assessment. Potential predictors for adverse outcomes were thoroughly evaluated. RESULTS Over a median follow-up of 5.22 years, primary outcome (the combination of cardiovascular mortality and heart transplantation) occurred in 98 (25.3%) patients. For secondary outcomes, 75 (19.3%) patients died and 130 (33.5%) patients experienced major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). Multivariable Cox analysis identified that free triiodothyronine (FT3) was independently associated with both primary (HR 0.455, 95%CI 0.313-0.664) and secondary (HR 0.547, 95%CI 0.349-0.858; HR 0.663, 95%CI 0.475-0.925) outcomes. Restricted cubic spline analysis illustrated that the risk for adverse outcomes increased significantly with the decline of serum FT3. The LVNC cohort was further stratified according to tertiles of FT3 levels. Individuals with lower FT3 levels in the tertile 1 group suffered from severe cardiac dysfunction and remodeling, resulting in higher incidence of mortality and MACE (Log-rank P < 0.001). Subgroup analysis revealed that lower concentration of FT3 was linked to worse prognosis, particularly for patients with left atrial diameter ≥ 40 mm or left ventricular ejection fraction ≤ 35%. Adding FT3 to the pre-existing risk score for MACE in LVNC improved its predictive performance. CONCLUSION Through the long-term investigation on a large LVNC cohort, we demonstrated that low FT3 level was an independent predictor for adverse cardiovascular outcomes.

Abstract
The advent of numerous treatment modalities with desirable therapeutic efficacy has been made possible by the fast development of nanomedicine and materdicine, among which the ultrasound (US)-triggered sonocatalytic process as minimal or non-invasive method has been frequently employed for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. In comparison to phototherapeutic approaches with inherent penetration depth limitations, sonocatalytic therapy shatters the depth limit of photoactivation and offers numerous remarkable prospects and advantages, including mitigated side effects and appropriate tissue-penetration depth. Nevertheless, the optimization of sonosensitizers and therapies remains a significant issue in terms of precision, intelligence and efficiency. In light of the fact that nanomedicine and materdicine can effectively enhance the theranostic efficiency, we herein aim to furnish a cutting-edge review on the latest progress and development of nanomedicine/materdicine-enabled sonocatalytic therapy. The design methodologies and biological features of nanomedicine/materdicine-based sonosensitizers are initially introduced to reveal the underlying relationship between composition/structure, sonocatalytic function and biological effect, in accompany with a thorough discussion of nanomedicine/materdicine-enabled synergistic therapy. Ultimately, the facing challenges and future perspectives of this intriguing sonocatalytic therapy are highlighted and outlined to promote technological advancements and clinical translation in efficient disease treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteosarcoma (OSA) presents a clinical challenge and has a low 5-year survival rate. Currently, the lack of advanced stratification models makes personalized therapy difficult. This study aims to identify novel biomarkers to stratify high-risk OSA patients and guide treatment. METHODS We combined 10 machine-learning algorithms into 101 combinations, from which the optimal model was established for predicting overall survival based on transcriptomic profiles for 254 samples. Alterations in transcriptomic, genomic and epigenomic landscapes were assessed to elucidate mechanisms driving poor prognosis. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) unveiled genes overexpressed in OSA cells as potential therapeutic targets, one of which was validated via tissue staining, knockdown and pharmacological inhibition. We characterized changes in multiple phenotypes, including proliferation, colony formation, migration, invasion, apoptosis, chemosensitivity and in vivo tumourigenicity. RNA-seq and Western blotting elucidated the impact of squalene epoxidase (SQLE) suppression on signalling pathways. RESULTS The artificial intelligence-derived prognostic index (AIDPI), generated by our model, was an independent prognostic biomarker, outperforming clinicopathological factors and previously published signatures. Incorporating the AIDPI with clinical factors into a nomogram improved predictive accuracy. For user convenience, both the model and nomogram are accessible online. Patients in the high-AIDPI group exhibited chemoresistance, coupled with overexpression of MYC and SQLE, increased mTORC1 signalling, disrupted PI3K-Akt signalling, and diminished immune infiltration. ScRNA-seq revealed high expression of MYC and SQLE in OSA cells. Elevated SQLE expression correlated with chemoresistance and worse outcomes in OSA patients. Therapeutically, silencing SQLE suppressed OSA malignancy and enhanced chemosensitivity, mediated by cholesterol depletion and suppression of the FAK/PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway. Furthermore, the SQLE-specific inhibitor FR194738 demonstrated anti-OSA effects in vivo and exhibited synergistic effects with chemotherapeutic agents. CONCLUSIONS AIDPI is a robust biomarker for identifying the high-risk subset of OSA patients. The SQLE protein emerges as a metabolic vulnerability in these patients, providing a target with translational potential.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Adipocyte fate determination is tightly regulated by extrinsic signaling pathways and intrinsic metabolic and morphologic changes that maintain adipose tissue function. Copper (Cu) homeostasis is required for the normal metabolism of mature adipocytes, whereas the role of Cu in adipogenesis is unclear. METHODS To determine the role of Cu is adipocytes differentiation, we used 3T3-L1 adipocytes, immunocytochemistry, X-ray fluorescence, mass-spectrometry, pharmacological treatments, and manipulations of copper levels. RESULTS In differentiating 3T3-L1 cells, adipogenic stimuli trigger the upregulation and trafficking of the Cu transporter Atp7a, thus causing Cu redistribution from the cytosol to vesicles. Disrupting Cu homeostasis by the deletion of Atp7a results in Cu elevation and inhibition of adipogenesis. The upregulation of C/EBPβ, an initial step of adipogenesis, is not affected in Atp7a-/- cells, whereas the subsequent upregulation of PPARγ is inhibited. Comparison of changes in the Atp7a-/- and wild type cells proteomes during early adipogenesis revealed stabilization of β-catenin, a negative regulator of adipogenesis. Cu chelation, or overexpression of the Cu transporter ATP7B in Atp7a-/- cells, restored β-catenin down-regulation and intracellular targeting. CONCLUSIONS Cu buffering during early adipogenesis contributes to termination of β-catenin signaling. Abnormal upregulation of β-catenin was also observed in vivo in the livers of Atp7b-/- mice, which accumulate Cu, suggesting a tissue-independent crosstalk between Cu homeostasis and the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. These results point to a new regulatory role of Cu in adipocytes and contribute to better understanding of human disorders of Cu misbalance.

Abstract
Background Osteosarcoma, the most common primary malignant bone tumor, is currently treated with surgery combined with chemotherapy, but the limited availability of targeted drugs contributes to a poor prognosis. Identifying effective therapeutic targets is crucial for improving the prognosis of osteosarcoma patients. Methods We screened the DepMap database to identify essential genes as potential therapeutic targets for osteosarcoma. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) was employed to elucidate the biological roles of these essential genes. Promising candidates were filtered through univariate and multivariate Cox analyses, as well as Kaplan-Meier survival analyses using the GSE21257-OSA and TARGET-OSA datasets. The functional role of the target gene was assessed through cell experiments. Additionally, an in situ nude mice model was established to observe the gene's function, and RNA sequencing was utilized to explore the underlying molecular mechanism. Results A total of 934 essential genes were identified based on their effects (Chronos) using the DepMap database. These genes were primarily enriched in the ribosome pathway according to GSEA analysis. Among them, 195 genes were associated with the ribosome pathway. Rps28, Rps7, and Rps25 were validated as promising candidates following univariate and multivariate Cox analyses of the TARGET-OSA and GSE21257-OSA datasets. Kaplan-Meier survival analyses indicated Rps28 represented an especially promising target, with high expression correlating with poor prognosis. Knockdown of small ribosomal subunit protein eS28, the protein of Rps28, inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion in both in vitro and in vivo experiments. Silencing RPS28 affected the MAPK signaling pathway in osteosarcoma. Conclusion In summary, Rps28 has been identified as an essential gene for osteosarcoma cell survival and eS28 may serve as a potential vulnerability in osteosarcoma.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) has been recognized as a chronic and relapsing inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract. Clinically, aminosalicylates, immunosuppressants and biological agents are commonly used to treat UC at different stages of the disease. However, these drugs often have side effects. Here, we investigated the anti-UC activity of Anemoside B4 (AB4) in mice with dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) induced colitis. Colon tissues, serum, and colonic contents were collected for assessment of intestinal barrier function, inflammatory cytokines production and microenvironment of intestinal microbiota. Results showed that AB4 alleviated colon shortening, weight lossing and histopathological damage in DSS-induced mice. In addition, we demonstrated both in vivo and in vitro that AB4 remarkably ameliorated colonic inflammation through suppressing NLRP3 pathway. Moreover, AB4 strengthened the intestinal epithelial barrier by regulating myosin light chain kinase (MLCK)-phosphorylated myosin light chain 2 (pMLC2) signaling pathway. Furthermore, we performed 16 S rRNA gene sequencing and fecal microbiome transplantation (FMT) experiments to demonstrate that AB4 alleviated colitis through regulating dysbiosis of intestinal microbiota. These results revealed that AB4 effectively ameliorate experimental UC mainly through regulating MLCK/pMLC2 pathway, NLRP3 pathway and dysbiosis of microbiota, provided new insights into the development of novel anti-UC drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dapagliflozin is commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, research into the specific anti-T2DM mechanisms of dapagliflozin remains scarce. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to explore the underlying mechanisms of dapagliflozin against T2DM. METHODS Dapagliflozin-associated targets were acquired from CTD, SwissTargetPrediction, and SuperPred. T2DM-associated targets were obtained from GeneCards and DigSee. VennDiagram was used to obtain the overlapping targets of dapagliflozin and T2DM. GO and KEGG analyses were performed using clusterProfiler. A PPI network was built by STRING database and Cytoscape, and the top 30 targets were screened using the degree, maximal clique centrality (MCC), and edge percolated component (EPC) algorithms of CytoHubba. The top 30 targets screened by the three algorithms were intersected with the core pathway-related targets to obtain the key targets. DeepPurpose was used to evaluate the binding affinity of dapagliflozin with the key targets. RESULTS In total, 155 overlapping targets of dapagliflozin and T2DM were obtained. GO and KEGG analyses revealed that the targets were primarily enriched in response to peptide, membrane microdomain, protein serine/threonine/tyrosine kinase activity, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, MAPK signaling pathway, and AGE-RAGE signaling pathway in diabetic complications. AKT1, PIK3CA, NOS3, EGFR, MAPK1, MAPK3, HSP90AA1, MTOR, RELA, NFKB1, IKBKB, ITGB1, and TP53 were the key targets, mainly related to oxidative stress, endothelial function, and autophagy. Through the DeepPurpose algorithm, AKT1, HSP90AA1, RELA, ITGB1, and TP53 were identified as the top 5 anti-targets of dapagliflozin. CONCLUSION Dapagliflozin might treat T2DM mainly by targeting AKT1, HSP90AA1, RELA, ITGB1, and TP53 through PI3K-Akt signaling.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Examine the significance of contouring the brachial plexus (BP) for toxicity estimation and select metrics for predicting radiation-induced brachial plexopathy (RIBP) after stereotactic body radiotherapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with planning target volume (PTV) ≤ 2 cm from the BP were eligible. The BP was contoured primarily according to the RTOG 1106 atlas, while subclavian-axillary veins (SAV) were contoured according to RTOG 0236. Apical PTVs were classified as anterior (PTV-A) or posterior (PTV-B) PTVs. Variables predicting grade 2 or higher RIBP (RIBP2) were selected through least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression and logistic regression. RESULTS Among 137 patients with 140 BPs (median follow-up, 32.1 months), 11 experienced RIBP2. For patients with RIBP2, the maximum physical dose to the BP (BP-Dmax) was 46.5 Gy (median; range, 35.7 to 60.7 Gy). Of these patients, 54.5 % (6/11) satisfied the RTOG limits when using SAV delineation; among them, 83.3 % (5/6) had PTV-B. For patients with PTV-B, the maximum physical dose to SAV (SAV-Dmax) was 11.2 Gy (median) lower than BP-Dmax. Maximum and 0.3 cc biologically effective doses to the BP based on the linear-quadratic-linear model (BP-BEDmax LQL and BP-BED0.3cc LQL, α/β = 3) were selected as predictive variables with thresholds of 118 and 73 Gy, respectively. CONCLUSION Contouring SAV may significantly underestimate the RIBP2 risk in dosimetry, especially for patients with PTV-B. BP contouring indicated BP-BED0.3cc LQL and BP-BEDmax LQL as potential predictors of RIBP2.

Abstract
Objective: Through retrospective statistical analysis of radiation distribution in inner ear avoidance for brain metastases from lung cancer by the CyberKnife (CK) system, it can provide a reference for stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) planning and treatment optimization. Methods: Computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging data of 44 patients with one brain metastases lesion from lung cancer were used to re-plan and analyze, who had been treated by CK system from April 2021 to April 2022. The prescribed doses of 14-30 Gy in 1-3 fractions was simultaneously delivered to the metastatic lesions. The SRT plans for the same patients were replaned under with and without inner ear avoidance setting. The plan parameters and dose distribution differences were compared between plans. Results: All plans met the dose restrictions. There were no significant differences in the coverage (Coverage), conformity index (CI), mean dose (Dmean), the maximum dose (Dmax) and minimum dose (Dmin) of planning target volume (PTV). With inner ear avoidance setting, the Dmax and Dmean of inner ear area decreased by 13.76% and 12.15% (p<0.01), respectively. The total number of machine nodes and monitor units (MU) increased by 4.63% and 1.06%. Conclusions: During the SRT plan designing for brain metastases from lung cancer, the dose distribution in inner ear area could be reduced by avoidance setting, and the patient's hearing would be well protected.

Abstract
Bladder cancer, the most common malignant tumor in the urinary system, exhibits significantly up-regulated expression of P3H4, which is associated with pathological factors. The objective of this study was to elucidate the underlying mechanism of P3H4 in bladder cancer. Initially, we analyzed P3H4 gene expression using the TCGA database and evaluated P3H4 levels in clinical samples and various bladder cell lines. P3H4 was found to be markedly overexpressed in bladder cancer samples. Subsequently, bladder cancer cells were transfected with shRNA targeting P3H4 (sh-P3H4), sh-METTL3, and P3H4 overexpression vectors (P3H4 OE). Viability, migration, and invasion of bladder cancer cells were assessed using CCK-8, wound healing, and transwell assays. Western blot analysis was performed to determine the levels of EMT-associated proteins, while RNA stability assays determined the half-life of P3H4. Knockdown of P3H4 resulted in inhibition of bladder cancer cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and EMT progression. Mechanistically, METTL3 was found to regulate the mRNA stability of P3H4 in bladder cancer. Moreover, overexpression of P3H4 reversed the inhibitory effects of METTL3 knockdown on bladder cancer cell behaviors. Stable cell lines were established by infecting EJ cells with lentiviral vectors containing sh-METTL3 or P3H4 OE. These cells were then implanted into the skin of BALB/c nude mice, and IHC analysis was used to analyze the expression levels of EMT-associated proteins. In vivo studies demonstrated that inhibition of METTL3 suppressed bladder cancer growth and EMT through P3H4. In conclusion, our findings suggest that METTL3 regulates the proliferation, metastasis, and EMT progression of bladder cancer through P3H4, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is increasingly recognized as a chronic, progressive and fatal lung disease with an unknown etiology. Current studies focus on revealing the genetic factors in the risk of IPF, making the integrative analysis of genetic variations and transcriptomic alterations of substantial value. AIM This study aimed to improve the understanding of the molecular basis of IPF through an integrative analysis of whole-exome sequencing (WES), bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data. METHODS WES is a powerful tool for studying the genetic basis of IPF, allowing for the identification of genetic variants that may be associated with the development of the disease. RNA-seq data provide a comprehensive view of the transcriptional changes in IPF patients, while scRNA-seq data offer a more granule view of cell-type-specific alterations. RESULTS In this study, we identified a comprehensive mutational landscape of recurrent genomic and transcriptomic variations, including single-nucleotide polymorphisms, CNVs and differentially expressed genes, in IPF populations, which may play a significant role in the development and progression of IPF. CONCLUSIONS Our study provided valuable insights into the genetic and transcriptomic variations associated with IPF, revealing changes in gene expression that may contribute to disease development and progression. These findings highlight the importance of an integrative approach to understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying IPF and may pave the way for identifying potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
In vitro embryonic analogue models, such as gastruloids, trunk-like structures and embryoids, have been developed to understand principles of early development and morphogenesis. However, models that can fully mimic head formation are still missing. Here, we present a protocol for generating the head-like structure (HLS) in zebrafish embryonic explants. We describe steps for dissection and constructing cell and patterning landscapes. We then detail assessment of this structure through axis induction. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Cheng et al. (2023).1.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a joint degenerative disease commonly observed in the old population, lacks effective therapeutic methods, and markedly impacts the normal lives of patients. Degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) is reported to participate in OA development, which is a potential target for treating OA. Cabozantinib is an inhibitor of tyrosine kinases and is recently claimed with suppressive properties against inflammation. Herein, the protective function of Cabozantinib on advanced glycation end products (AGEs)-induced damages to chondrocytes was tested. SW1353 chondrocytes were stimulated with 100 μg/ml AGEs with or without 10 and 20 μM Cabozantinib for 24 h. Signally increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, declined reduced glutathione (GSH) levels, and elevated release of inflammatory cytokines were observed in AGEs-stimulated SW1353 chondrocytes, which were markedly reversed by Cabozantinib. Moreover, the notably reduced type II collagen and aggrecan levels, and increased matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13) and A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin Motifs-5 (ADAMTS-5) levels in AGEs-stimulated SW1353 chondrocytes were largely rescued by Cabozantinib. The downregulated Sry-type high-mobility-group box 9 (SOX-9) observed in AGEs-stimulated SW1353 chondrocytes was abolished by Cabozantinib. Furthermore, the impact of Cabozantinib on type II collagen and aggrecan levels in AGEs-treated SW1353 chondrocytes was abrogated by silencing SOX-9. Collectively, Cabozantinib prevented AGEs-induced degradation of type 2 collagen and aggrecan in human chondrocytes by mediating SOX-9.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To establish a snail control approach for spraying chemicals with drones against Oncomelania hupensis in complex snail habitats in hilly regions, and to evaluate its molluscicidal effect. METHODS The protocol for evaluating the activity of spraying chemical molluscicides with drones against O. hupensis snails was formulated based on expert consultation and literature review. In August 2022, a pretest was conducted in a hillside field environment (12 000 m2) north of Dafengji Village, Dacang Township, Weishan County, Yunnan Province, which was assigned into four groups, of no less than 3 000 m2 in each group. In Group A, environmental cleaning was not conducted and 5% niclosamide ethanolamine salt granules were sprayed with drones at a dose of 40 g/m2, and in Group B, environmental cleaning was performed, followed by 5% niclosamide ethanolamine salt granules sprayed with drones at a dose of 40 g/m2, while in Group C, environmental cleaning was not conducted and 5% niclosamide ethanolamine salt granules were sprayed with knapsack sprayers at a dose of 40 g/m2, and in Group D, environmental cleaning was performed, followed by 5% niclosamide ethanolamine salt granules sprayed with knapsack sprayers at a dose of 40 g/m2. Then, each group was equally divided into six sections according to land area, with Section 1 for baseline surveys and sections 2 to 6 for snail surveys after chemical treatment. Snail surveys were conducted prior to chemical treatment and 1, 3, 5, 7 days post-treatment, and the mortality and corrected mortality of snails, density of living snails and costs of molluscicidal treatment were calculated in each group. RESULTS The mortality and corrected mortality of snails were 69.49%, 69.09%, 53.57% and 83.48%, and 68.58%, 68.17%, 52.19% and 82.99% in groups A, B, C and D 14 days post-treatment, and the density of living snails reduced by 58.40%, 63.94%, 68.91% and 83.25% 14 days post-treatment relative to pre-treatment in four groups, respectively. The median concentrations of chemical molluscicides were 37.08, 35.42, 42.50 g/m2 and 56.25 g/m2 in groups A, B, C and D, and the gross costs of chemical treatment were 0.93, 1.50, 0.46 Yuan per m2 and 1.03 Yuan per m2 in groups A, B, C and D, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The molluscicidal effect of spraying 5% niclosamide ethanolamine salt granules with drones against O. hupensis snails is superior to manual chemical treatment without environmental cleaning, and chemical treatment with drones and manual chemical treatment show comparable molluscicidal effects following environmental cleaning in hilly regions. The cost of chemical treatment with drones is slightly higher than manual chemical treatment regardless of environmental cleaning. Spraying 5% niclosamide ethanolamine salt granules with drones is recommended in complex settings with difficulty in environmental cleaning to improve the molluscicidal activity and efficiency against O. hupensis snails.

Abstract
Broomcorn millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) is an orphan crop with the potential to improve cereal production and quality, and ensure food security. Here we present the genetic variations, population structure and diversity of a diverse worldwide collection of 516 broomcorn millet genomes. Population analysis indicated that the domesticated broomcorn millet originated from its wild progenitor in China. We then constructed a graph-based pangenome of broomcorn millet based on long-read de novo genome assemblies of 32 representative accessions. Our analysis revealed that the structural variations were highly associated with transposable elements, which influenced gene expression when located in the coding or regulatory regions. We also identified 139 loci associated with 31 key domestication and agronomic traits, including candidate genes and superior haplotypes, such as LG1, for panicle architecture. Thus, the study's findings provide foundational resources for developing genomics-assisted breeding programs in broomcorn millet.

Abstract
Recent studies on osteosarcoma and matrix stiffness are still mostly performed in a 2D setting, which is distinct from in vivo conditions. Therefore, the results from the 2D models may not reflect the real effect of matrix stiffness on cell phenotype. Here, we employed a 3D bioprinted osteosarcoma model, to study the effect of matrix stiffness on osteosarcoma cells. Through density adjustment of GelMA, we constructed three osteosarcoma models with distinct matrix stiffnesses of 50, 80, and 130 kPa. In this study, we found that osteosarcoma cells proliferated faster, migrated more actively, had a more stretched morphology, and a lower drug sensitivity in a softer 3D matrix. When placed in a stiffer matrix, osteosarcoma cells secrete more MMP and VEGF, potentially to fight for survival and attract vascular invasion. Transcriptomic analysis showed that matrix stiffness could impact the signaling pathway of integrin α5-MAPK. The transplantation of 3D printed models in nude mice showed that cells encapsulated in the softer hydrogel were more likely to form subcutaneous tumors. These results suggest that matrix stiffness plays an important role in the development of osteosarcoma in a 3D environment and that inhibition of integrin α5 could block the signal transduction of matrix stiffness.

Abstract
AIM To develop an intratumoural and peritumoural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiomics nomogram for predicting tumour grade to improve clinical treatment and long-term prognosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS MRI (3 T) features and T2-weighted imaging with fat-saturation (T2WI-FS)-based radiomics features of 57 patients with soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) were analysed retrospectively. Tumour size, ratio of width and length, relative depth to the peripheral fascia, peritumoural oedema, heterogeneity on T2WI, necrosis signal, enhancement model, and peritumoural enhancement were obtained. Independent risk factors were screened to construct an MRI feature nomogram. Radiomics features were obtained from intratumoural and peritumoural images on T2WI-FS. The optimal radiomics model was selected by the four-step dimensionality reduction method of minimum and maximum normalisation, optimal feature selection, selection based on support vector machine with L1-norm regularisation model, and iterative feature selection. MRI features and optimal radiomics features were used to construct a radiomics nomogram. The MRI feature nomogram model, the radiomics model, and the radiomics nomogram model were assessed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and calibration curves of the training and validation sets. RESULTS Heterogeneity on T2WI and peritumoural enhancement were independent risk factors for predicting high-grade STS. The areas under the curves of the training set and verification set of the three models were as follows: MRI feature nomogram, 0.86 and 0.83, respectively; intratumoural and peritumoural combined radiomics model, 0.99 and 0.86, respectively; and radiomics nomogram model, 0.98 and 0.96, respectively. CONCLUSION The radiomics nomogram model based on MRI features and combined intratumoural and peritumoural radiomic features was best able to predict high-grade STS.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the prognostic value of quantitative plaque volume on coronary computed tomography (CT) angiography (CTA) combined with CT fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) for major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who underwent coronary CTA with clinically suspected CAD were enrolled retrospectively in this study. Patients' baseline, Framingham Risk Score (FRS), coronary CTA plaque assessment, and CT-FFR were analysed retrospectively. Study outcomes included rehospitalisation and MACE (ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, unstable angina, or non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, revascularisation, and cardiac death). RESULTS There were 251 patients in the study, with a follow-up period of 1-6.58 years. Mean age was 61.16 ± 10.45 years and 146 (58%) patients were male. Higher CT-adapted Leaman score and quantitative plaque volume were found in patients with FRS >0.2 regardless of categorical or continuous variables. Coronary scores, quantitative plaque parameters, and CT-FFR were associated with MACE and rehospitalisation in univariate analysis. In model 1, CT-FFR was associated with MACE in multivariate Cox analysis when adjusted for FRS and CT-adapted Leaman score. Quantitative plaque parameters including calcified plaque volume, fibro-fatty plaque volume, low-attenuation plaque volume, non-calcified plaque volume, and total plaque volume were significantly associated with MACE and improved overall prognostic performance in a model adjusted for CT-FFR. CONCLUSION Additional quantitative plaque volume and CT-FFR further improve the predictive incremental value based on risk factor scores for prognostic prediction in patients. Adding quantitative plaque volume combined with CT-FFR analysis to anatomical and clinical assessment will be further beneficial to predict patients' prognosis of MACE.

Abstract
Glutaredoxin (GRX) is a class of small redox proteins widely involved in cellular redox homeostasis and the regulation of various cellular processes. The role of GRX gene in the differentiation of Populus spp. is rarely reported. We compared the similarities and differences of GRX genes among four sections of poplar using bioinformatics, corrected the annotations of some GRX genes, and focused on analysing their transcript profiling and adaptive evolution in Populus spp. A total of 219 GRX genes were identified in four sections of poplar, among which annotations for 13 genes were corrected. Differences in GRX genes were found between sect. Turanga, represented by P. euphratica, and other poplar sections. Most notably, P. euphratica had the smallest number of duplication events for GRX genes (n = 9) and no tandem duplications, whereas there were >25 duplication events for all other poplars. Furthermore, we detected 18 pairs of GRX genes under positive selection pressure in various sections of poplar, and identified two groups of GRX genes in the Salicaceae that potentially underwent positive selection. Expression profiling results showed that the PtrGRX34 and its orthologous genes were upregulated under stress treatments. In summary, the GRX gene family underwent expansion during poplar differentiation, and some genes underwent rapid evolution during this process, which may be beneficial for Populus spp. to adapt to environmental changes. This study may provide more insights into the molecular mechanisms of Populus spp. adaptation to environmental changes and the adaptive evolution of GRX genes.

Abstract
AIM To explore the feasibility of a "triple-low" dose (low tube voltage, low tube current, and low contrast agent volume) bronchial artery computed tomography (CT) angiography (CTA) to replace routine dose bronchial artery CTA before bronchial artery embolisation (BAE). MATERIALS AND METHODS CTA was obtained from 60 patients with body mass index (BMI) < 30 kg/m2 using a 256 multi-section iCT system, and they were divided into two groups: (1) group A: 100 kVp, 100 mAs, 50 ml contrast medium (CM); (2) group B: 120 kVp, automatic tube current modulation (ACTM), 80 ml CM. CT attenuation of the thoracic aorta, image noise, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) were calculated, and subjective image quality scores and traceability scores assessed. The effective radiation dose was calculated. RESULTS The radiation dose was reduced by 79.7% in group A compared to group B (p<0.05). The CT attenuation of the thoracic aorta was increased by approximately 13% in group A compared to group B (p<0.05). Higher image noise, lower SNR, and CNR were obtained in group A compared to group B (all p<0.05). Both subjective image quality scores and traceability scores did not differ between groups A and B (both p>0.05). CONCLUSION It is feasible to use the "triple-low" dose CTA protocol for patients with a body mass index (BMI) < 30 kg/m2. The radiation dose was reduced by 79.7%, and the dose of contrast medium was reduced by 37.5% to ensure the diagnostic value.

Abstract
Macropodus hongkongensis (Freyhof & Herder, 2002), is sparsely distributed in Hong Kong and Guangdong provinces. Recently, a new geographical population of M. hongkongensis was discovered in the Wanquan River in the Hainan province. Therefore, this study focused on sequencing the complete mitochondrial genome of the new geographical population of Macropodus hongkongensis from the Wanquan River. The circular mtDNA molecule was 16,492 bp in size, and the overall base compositions were A (30.30%), C (24.90%), T (29.80%), and G (15.00%), with a slight bias toward A + T. The complete mitogenome encoded 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a control region. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that M. hongkongensis of the Hainan Wanquan River was most closely related to the M. hongkongensis of the Gongdong population. These results provide useful genetic information for species identification and phylogenetic studies of Macropodus species.

Abstract
The role of alternative polyadenylation (APA) in tumor development is becoming increasingly evident, but the impact of APA events on the prognosis of LUAD patients is unclear. Therefore, in the present study, we aimed to analyze specific APA events in LUAD to identify novel prognostic biomarkers for LUAD. We first identified prognostic candidate genes for LUAD associated with APA events and validated them in both the East Asian and the USA cohorts, finding that five genes (DCUN1D5, PSMC4, TFAM, THRA, and TMEM100) were of prognostic significance in both populations. Based on this, an APA-based prognostic signature was constructed for the East Asian population. The predictive accuracy of the prognostic signature was further evaluated by the time-dependent ROC, with 1-, 2-, and 3-year AUCs of 0.86, 0.81, and 0.71, respectively. This study may provide new markers for individualized diagnosis and prognostic assessment of LUAD and potential targets for precision treatment.

Abstract
Laser altimetry data from the Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) contain a lot of noise, which necessitates the requirement for a signal photon extraction method. In this study, we propose a density clustering method, which combines slope and elevation information from optical stereo images and adaptively adjusts the neighborhood search direction in the along-track direction. The local classification density threshold was calculated adaptively according to the uneven spatial distribution of noise and signal density, and reliable surface signal points were extracted. The performance of the algorithm was validated for strong and weak beam laser altimetry data using optical stereo images with different resolutions and positioning accuracies. The results were compared qualitatively and quantitatively with those obtained using the ATL08 algorithm. The signal extraction quality was better than that of the ATL08 algorithm for steep slope and low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regions. The proposed method can better balance the relationship between recall and precision, and its F1-score was higher than that of the ATL08 algorithm. The method can accurately extract continuous and reliable surface signals for both strong and weak beams among different terrains and land cover types.

Abstract
Neuromorphic computing has shown remarkable capabilities in silicon-based artificial intelligence, which can be optimized by using Mott materials for functional synaptic connections. However, the research efforts focus on two-terminal artificial synapses and envisioned the networks controlled by silicon-based circuits, which is difficult to develop and integrate. Here, we propose a dynamic network with laser-controlled conducting filaments based on electric field-induced local insulator-metal transition of vanadium dioxide. Quantum sensing is used to realize conductivity-sensitive imaging of conducting filament. We find that the location of filament formation is manipulated by focused laser, which is applicable to simulate the dynamical synaptic connections between the neurons. The ability to process signals with both long-term and short-term potentiation is further demonstrated with ~60 times on/off ratio while switching the pathways. This study opens the door to the development of dynamic network structures depending on easily controlled conduction pathways, mimicking the biological nervous systems.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Although stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has achieved great success in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), local relapses still occur and abscopal effects are rarely seen even when combined with immune checkpoint blockers (ICBs). Therefore, it is necessary to thoroughly understand the immune responses after SBRT. MATERIALS/METHODS We characterized the dynamic changes of tumor-infiltrating immune cells at early and late time points after SBRT in a therapy-resistant murine tumor model using single-cell transcriptomes and T-cell receptor sequencing. RESULTS At the early stage, the innate and adaptive immune systems were activated, including activation of NKs and NKTs, and infiltration of cytotoxic CD8+ T cells. At the late stage, however, the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) shifted into immunosuppressive properties, containing enrichment of immunosuppressive tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs), M2-like tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), and terminal exhausted CD8+ T cells. Furthermore, our study revealed that inhibition of CD39 combined with SBRT preferentially reinvigorated exhausted CD8+ T cells and promoted their proliferation, infiltration, and cytotoxicity. Meanwhile, it also promoted M1-like macrophage infiltration and DCs maturation. On the other hand, consequently increased infiltration of immunosuppressive myeloid cells after SBRT could be a potential mechanism mediating CD8+ T cell dysfunction. Moreover, we found that combination treatment with anti-VISTA and SBRT synergistically reduced immunosuppressive myeloid cells, containing TANs, M-MDSCs, and M2-like TAMs, and further activated CD8+ T cells. Clinically, high VISTA expression was associated with poor prognosis in NSCLC patients. CONCLUSION Altogether, our data provides deep insight into acquired resistance to SBRT from an immune perspective and presents rational combination strategies.

Abstract
Significance Mueller matrix (MM) microscopy has proven to be a powerful tool for probing microstructural characteristics of biological samples down to subwavelength scale. However, in clinical practice, doctors usually rely on bright-field microscopy images of stained tissue slides to identify characteristic features of specific diseases and make accurate diagnosis. Cross-modality translation based on polarization imaging helps to improve the efficiency and stability in analyzing sample properties from different modalities for pathologists. Aim In this work, we propose a computational image translation technique based on deep learning to enable bright-field microscopy contrast using snapshot Stokes images of stained pathological tissue slides. Taking Stokes images as input instead of MM images allows the translated bright-field images to be unaffected by variations of light source and samples. Approach We adopted CycleGAN as the translation model to avoid requirements on co-registered image pairs in the training. This method can generate images that are equivalent to the bright-field images with different staining styles on the same region. Results Pathological slices of liver and breast tissues with hematoxylin and eosin staining and lung tissues with two types of immunohistochemistry staining, i.e., thyroid transcription factor-1 and Ki-67, were used to demonstrate the effectiveness of our method. The output results were evaluated by four image quality assessment methods. Conclusions By comparing the cross-modality translation performance with MM images, we found that the Stokes images, with the advantages of faster acquisition and independence from light intensity and image registration, can be well translated to bright-field images.

Abstract
Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma (AFH) is a rare soft tissue tumour that occurs in the superficial tissue of extremities of children and young adults. A painless mass in the deep dermis and subcutaneous tissue is the main clinical manifestation. AFH also occurs infrequently in the central nervous system and is relatively common in the cranium. However, spinal canal AFH has not been described yet. We report a rare case of AFH in the cervical canal of a 20-year-old male patient. Microsurgical gross total resection of the tumour was performed, and the diagnosis was confirmed by postoperative pathology. To our knowledge, this is the first case of AFH in the spinal canal.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to explore the hemodynamic changes before and after anastomosis in patients with Moyamoya disease (MMD) using multiple models. Methods We prospectively enrolled 42 MMD patients who underwent combined revascularization. Intraoperative FLOW800 was performed before and after anastomosis, and parameters was collected, including maximum intensity, delay time, rise time, slope, blood flow index, and microvascular transit time (MVTT). Additionally, preoperative and postoperative hemodynamic parameters were measured using color Doppler ultrasonography (CDUS), including peak systolic velocity, end-diastolic velocity, resistance index (RI), pulsatility index (PI), and flow volume. Subsequently, the correlation between FLOW800 and CDUS parameters was explored. Results A total of 42 participants took part with an average age of 46.5 years, consisting of 19 men and 23 women. The analysis of FLOW800 indicated that both the delay time and rise time experienced a substantial decrease in both the recipient artery and vein. Additionally, the MVTT was found to be significantly reduced after the surgery (5.7 ± 2.2 s vs. 4.9 ± 1.6, p = 0.021). However, no statistically significant differences were observed among the other parameters. Similarly, all postoperative parameters in CDUS hemodynamics exhibited significant alterations in comparison to the preoperative values. The correlation analysis between FLOW800 and CDUS parameters indicated a significant association between MVTT and RI and PI, no significant relationships were found among the other parameters in the two groups. Conclusion The hemodynamic outcomes of the donor and recipient arteries demonstrated significant changes following bypass surgery. The parameter of time appears to be more precise and sensitive in assessing hemodynamics using FLOW800. Multiple evaluations of hemodynamics could offer substantial evidence for perioperative management.

Abstract
Aiming at the problem of chemical-mechanics-hydro (C-M-H) action encountered by rocks in underground engineering, chemical damage variables, water damage variables, and force damage variables are introduced to define the degree of degradation of rock materials. Stone is selected as the sample for acid corrosion treatment at pH 3, 4, and 7, and a chemical damage factor is defined that coupled the pH value and duration of exposure. Then based on the spatial mobilized plane (SMP) criterion and the Lemaitre strain equivalence hypothesis, this research develops a constitutive model considering rock chemical corrosion-water-confining pressure damage. The proposed damage constitutive model employs the extremum method to ascertain the two Weibull distribution parameters (m and F0) by theoretical derivation and exhibits satisfactory conformity between the theoretical and experimental curves. The damage constitutive model can be consistent in the stress-strain characteristics of the rock triaxial compression process, which verifies the rationality and reliability of the model parameters. The model effectively represents the mechanical properties and damage characteristics of rocks when subjected to the combined influence of water chemistry and confinement. The presented model contributes to a better understanding of tangible rock-engineered structures subjected to chemical corrosion in underwater environments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study is to explore the related factors of precocious puberty in children. METHODS 1239 children who underwent physical examination in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2022 were analyzed, including 198 precocious children and 1041 normal children. According to the age of 198 precocious children and 1041 normal children, 205 normal children were selected, and the remaining 836 normal children were excluded. They were divided into precocious group and normal group. The general data of the two groups were recorded. Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of precocious puberty in children. RESULTS There were statistically significant differences (P < 0.05) between the two groups in sex, bone age, daily exercise time, E2, FSH, LH, leptin, mother's menarche time, living environment, consumption of nutritional supplements, consumption of foods containing pigments and preservatives, consumption of high-protein foods, and sleeping time. The multifactor logistic regression analysis shows that the risk factors of children's precocious puberty included gender (female), bone age (> 10 years old), and daily exercise time (< 0.9 h), E2 (≥ 66.00pmol/L), FSH (≥ 6.00U/L), LH (≥ 3.50U/L), leptin (≥ 8.00 µ G/L), mother's menarche time (< 12 years old), living environment (chemical industry zone), consumption of nutritional supplements (often), consumption of high-protein food (often), and sleep time (< 10 h). CONCLUSION In conclusion, children's gender, bone age, exercise habits, E2, FSH, LH, leptin, mother's menarche time, living environment, eating habits, sleep time and other factors are closely related to precocious puberty in children. Reminding parents to actively prevent related factors in clinical work is helpful to prevent the occurrence of precocious puberty in children.

Abstract
Background: The dose distribution in different optimization algorithm plans of stereotactic radiotherapy (SBRT) for locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) were compared and analyzed using monte carlo dose calculate algorithm (MC). Methods: A retrospective study analyzed 26 LAPC patients treated with SBRT. The SBRT plans were designed by raytracing (RT) and fine size pencil beam (FSPB) algorithms in the CyberKnife (CK) precision system, all of which met the requirements of clinical target dose and organ at risk (OAR). Keeping the original optimization parameters unchanged, the RT and FSPB algorithm plans were recalculated by MC algorithm. The accuracy of different algorithm plnas were compared and analyzed by using planning parameters and dose distribution. Results: There was no significant differences in the coverage and conformal index (CI) of the planned target volume (PTV) between RT and FSPB algorithm plans, but dose distribution of organ at risk (OAR) and the maximum dose outside the PTV boundary of 2 cm (D2cm) were lower in FSPB plans compared to RT plans, and this difference was statistically significant with p-values < 0.05. Compared to the MC algorithm, both RT algorithm and FSPB algorithm overestimated dose of the PTV and OAR. The RT algorithm was more consistent with the MC algorithm than the FSPB algorithm. The relative error of PTV coverage within the RT algorithm was 8.02% ± 1.53%, and the relative error range of OAR dose parameters was 3.32% -12.73%. Conclusion: Although the FSPB algorithm could achieve rapid dose drop-off around the PTV and lower dose distribution in the OAR for pancreatic cancer SBRT plans, the algorithm error were higher than the RT algorithm. RT and FSPB algorithm overestimated the dose in the target and OAR. That was important to evaluate the clinical plans.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Although the effects of estimated dose of radiation to immune cells (EDRIC) in stage III NSCLC, LA-NSCLC, LS-SCLC and esophageal cancer on clinical outcomes have been studied, its impact in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (ES-NSCLC) is unknown. In this study, we evaluated the role of EDRIC and identified the factors influencing EDRIC in this population. METHODS AND MATERIALS We retrospectively analyzed 211 pathologically confirmed ES-NSCLC patients who were treated with SBRT between 2007 and 2020. EDRIC was calculated based on the model developed by Jin et al. and improved by Ladbury et al. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards regression were adopted to estimate CSS, PFS, LPFS, and DMFS. Pearson correlation was used to assess the correlation between variables. We further validated our findings in an independent cohort of 119 patients with ES-NSCLC. RESULTS A total of 211 patients were included with median follow-up of 48 months in the training cohort. The median EDRIC was 2.178 Gy (range: 0.426-6.015). GTV showed a positive correlation with EDRIC (r = 0.707, P = 0.000). In multivariate analysis, higher EDRIC was significantly associated with worse CSS (HR = 1.468, P = 0.009) and DMFS (HR = 1.491, P = 0.016). Considering each EDRIC quartile, there was a significant difference in CSS between 1st and 4th and 1st and 3rd quartile (P = 0.000, P = 0.004, respectively); and DMFS between 1st and 4th,1st and 3rd, and 1st and 2nd quartile (P = 0.000, P = 0.000, P = 0.008, respectively). In the subgroup and validation cohort, EDRIC was also the important prognostic predictor of CSS and DMFS using multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION EDRIC was an independent predictor of CSS and DMFS in ES-NSCLC, and it was affected by GTV and tumor location. Though EDRIC is a critical determinant of treatment outcomes, it is quantifiable and potentially modifiable. Additional researches exploring the feasibility of achieving lower EDRIC while maintaining adequate tumor coverage during radiotherapy are warranted.

Abstract
Background High-grade bladder cancer (HGBC) has a higher malignant potential, recurrence and progression rate compared to low-grade phenotype. Its early symptoms are often vague, making non-invasive diagnosis using urinary biomarkers a promising approach. Methods The gene expression data from urine samples of patients with HGBC was extracted from the GSE68020 dataset. The clinical information and gene expression data in tumor tissues of HGBC patients were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Multivariate Cox analysis was used to predict the optimal risk model. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis was performed via the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes (STRING) database and visualized using Cytoscape. Overall survival (OS) was evaluated in the Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) online platform. Competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network was also visualized using Cytoscape. The expression levels of specific genes were assessed through quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Moreover, co-expressed genes and potential biological functions related to specific genes were explored based on the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE) database. Results A total of 560 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified when comparing the urine sediment samples from HGBC patients with the benign ones. Using these urinary DEGs and the clinical information of HGBC patients, we developed an optimal risk model consisting of eight genes to predict the patient outcome. By integrating the node degree values in the PPI network with the expression changes in both urine and tissue samples, eighteen hub genes were selected out. Among them, DKC1 and SNRPG had the most prominent comprehensive values, and EFTUD2, LOR and EBNA1BP2 were relevant to a worse OS in bladder cancer patients. The ceRNA network of hub genes indicated that DKC1 may be directly regulated by miR-150 in HGBC. The upregulation of both SNRPG and DKC1 were detected in HGBC cells, which were also observed in various tumor tissues and malignant cell lines, displaying high correlations with other hub genes. Conclusions Our study may provide theoretical basis for the development of effective non-invasive detection and treatment strategies, and further research is necessary to explore the clinical applications of these findings.

Abstract
Although radiotherapy (RT) has achieved great success in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), local relapses still occur and abscopal effects are rarely seen even when it is combined with immune checkpoint blockers (ICBs). Here, we characterize the dynamic changes of tumor-infiltrating immune cells after RT in a therapy-resistant murine tumor model using single-cell transcriptomes and T cell receptor sequencing. At the early stage, the innate and adaptive immune systems are activated. At the late stage, however, the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) shifts into immunosuppressive properties. Our study reveals that inhibition of CD39 combined with RT preferentially decreases the percentage of exhausted CD8+ T cells. Moreover, we find that the combination of V-domain immunoglobulin suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA) blockade and RT synergistically reduces immunosuppressive myeloid cells. Clinically, high VISTA expression is associated with poor prognosis in patients with NSCLC. Altogether, our data provide deep insight into acquired resistance to RT from an immune perspective and present rational combination strategies.

A deep learning approach for automatic tumor delineation in stereotactic radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer using diagnostic PET-CT and planning CT. Front Oncol 2023; 13:1235461.

Abstract
Introduction Accurate delineation of tumor targets is crucial for stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study aims to develop a deep learning-based segmentation approach to accurately and efficiently delineate NSCLC targets using diagnostic PET-CT and SBRT planning CT (pCT). Methods The diagnostic PET was registered to pCT using the transform matrix from registering diagnostic CT to the pCT. We proposed a 3D-UNet-based segmentation method to segment NSCLC tumor targets on dual-modality PET-pCT images. This network contained squeeze-and-excitation and Residual blocks in each convolutional block to perform dynamic channel-wise feature recalibration. Furthermore, up-sampling paths were added to supplement low-resolution features to the model and also to compute the overall loss function. The dice similarity coefficient (DSC), precision, recall, and the average symmetric surface distances were used to assess the performance of the proposed approach on 86 pairs of diagnostic PET and pCT images. The proposed model using dual-modality images was compared with both conventional 3D-UNet architecture and single-modality image input. Results The average DSC of the proposed model with both PET and pCT images was 0.844, compared to 0.795 and 0.827, when using 3D-UNet and nnUnet. It also outperformed using either pCT or PET alone with the same network, which had DSC of 0.823 and 0.732, respectively. Discussion Therefore, our proposed segmentation approach is able to outperform the current 3D-UNet network with diagnostic PET and pCT images. The integration of two image modalities helps improve segmentation accuracy.
