Abstract
The northeastern edge of the Tibetan Plateau exhibits diverse climate and landform variations, and has experienced substantial recent environmental changes, which may significantly impact local agricultural practices. Understanding the microeukaryote community structure within agricultural soils is crucial for finding out the biological responses to such changes and may guide future agricultural practices. In this study, we employed high-throughput amplicon sequencing to examine 29 agricultural soil samples from seven research areas around the northeastern edge of the Tibetan Plateau. The findings revealed that the predominant biological communities in these soils were characterized by a high abundance of Alveolata, Amoebozoa, and Rhizaria. Ascomycota displayed the highest relative abundance among fungal communities. Moreover, notable distinctions in microeukaryote community composition were observed among the study sites. Co-occurrence network analysis highlighted interactions between the biological communities. Furthermore, our results elucidated that deterministic and stochastic processes exerted diverse influences on the distribution of protozoan and fungal communities. This study provides valuable insight into the microeukaryote structure in the agricultural soils of the northeastern edge of the Tibetan Plateau, shedding light on the intricate relationships between environmental factors, microeukaryote communities, and agricultural productivity.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical and pathological features of primary gastric (gastrointestinal)-type mucoglandular lesions of the endometrium. Methods: Eight cases of primary gastric (gastrointestinal)-type mucoglandular lesions of endometrium diagnosed between 2014 to 2022 were retrieved from pathology archives of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University, Shanghai, China. The clinical history, pathological sections and follow-ups were analyzed. Results: The eight patients ranged in age from 35 to 67 years, with an average age of 55.5 years. Seven patients were examined for high-risk human papillary virus (HPV) before operation. Only one of them was positive for high-risk HPV52. No cervical mucinous lesions were found in any of the patients. Two cases were invasive gastric (gastrointestinal)-type adenocarcinoma, 2 cases were benign gastric (gastrointestinal)-type mucinous metaplasia, and the other 4 cases were atypical gastric (gastrointestinal)-type mucinous gland hyperplasia. Microscopically, tumor cells showed mucous epithelium with gastrointestinal differentiation. Immunophenotyping showed that MUC6 was diffusely or focally positive in 5 cases, CK20 and CDX2 were positive in 3 cases. And p16 was negative or focally positive in 5 cases and strongly positive in 1 case. ER was expressed in both benign and atypical lesions, and weakly positive or negative in the invasive adenocarcinoma. p53 showed mutant expression in one case and wild-type expression in the rest. HPV in situ hybridization was negative. Conclusions: Primary gastric (gastrointestinal)-type mucoglandular lesions of the endometrium show various forms of gastrointestinal differentiation, which are high-risk HPV independent. Morphology combined with immunohistochemistry is helpful for the diagnosis, which can only be made on exclusion of cervical gastrointestinal glandular lesion, gastrointestinal metastatic carcinoma and the mucinous subtype of endometrioid carcinoma.

Abstract
Objective: To study the incubation period of the infection with 2019-nCoV Omicron variant BA.5.1.3. Methods: Based on the epidemiological survey data of 315 COVID-19 cases and the characteristics of interval censored data structure, log-normal distribution and Gamma distribution were used to estimate the incubation. Bayes estimation was performed for the parameters of each distribution function using discrete time Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm. Results: The mean age of the 315 COVID-19 cases was (42.01±16.54) years, and men accounted for 30.16%. A total of 156 cases with mean age of (41.65±16.32) years reported the times when symptoms occurred. The log-normal distribution and Gamma distribution indicated that the M (Q1, Q3) of the incubation period from exposure to symptom onset was 2.53 (1.86, 3.44) days and 2.64 (1.91, 3.52) days, respectively, and the M (Q1, Q3) of the incubation period from exposure to the first positive nucleic acid detection was 2.45 (1.76, 3.40) days and 2.57 (1.81, 3.52) days, respectively. Conclusions: The incubation period by Bayes estimation based on log-normal distribution and Gamma distribution, respectively, was similar to each other, and the best distribution of incubation period was Gamma distribution, the difference between the incubation period from exposure to the first positive nucleic acid detection and the incubation period from exposure to symptom onset was small. The median of incubation period of infection caused by Omicron variant BA.5.1.3 was shorter than those of previous Omicron variants.

Abstract
Extracellular ATP (eATP) increases cytosolic free calcium ([Ca2+ ]cyt ) as a specific second messenger 'signature' through the plasma membrane DORN1/P2K1 receptor. Previous studies revealed a biphasic signature in Arabidopsis thaliana roots that is altered by inorganic phosphate (Pi) deprivation. The relationship between the two phases of the signature and possible wave formation have been tested as a function of Pi nutrition. The bioluminescent aequorin and intensiometric GCaMP3 reporters were used to resolve the spatial origin of the eATP [Ca2+ ]cyt signature in Arabidopsis root tips. Application of eATP only to the root apex allowed [Ca2+ ]cyt wave resolution without the confounding effects of eATP delivery by superfusion. The first apical millimetre of the root generates the first [Ca2+ ]cyt increase by eATP, regardless of nutritional status. The second increase occurs sub-apically in the root hair zone, has some autonomy and is significantly reduced in Pi-starved roots. A significant component of the Pi-replete signature does not require DORN1/P2K1, but Pi-starved roots appear to have an absolute requirement for that receptor. Application of eATP specifically to the root apex provides evidence for cell-to-cell propagation of a [Ca2+ ]cyt wave that diminishes sub-apically. The apex maintains a robust [Ca2+ ]cyt increase (even under Pi starvation) that is the basis of a propagative wave, with implications for the ability of the root's eATP signalling systems to signal systemically. Partial autonomy of the sub-apical region may be relevant to the perception of eATP from microbes. eATP-induced [Ca2+ ]cyt increase may not have always have an obligate requirement for DORN1/P2K1.

Abstract
Objective: To develop a suitable scale for assessing the public health safety literacy in residents in China. Methods: The initial scale of Chinese public health safety literacy was developed through theoretical conceptualization, item pooling, field verifying and item inclusion and exclusion. Then the initial scale was converted into an electronic questionnaire. A total of 2 809 residents from 4 provinces were randomly selected for field testing. Classical test theory (CTT) and item response theory (IRT) were used for item reduction. SPSS 23.0 was used for exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and unidimensional testing. Package R 4.1.1 ltm and mirt were used for the analysis of the psychometric properties of items and generate the ICC, IIC and TIF. Results: The initial scale had 30 items (B1-B30), and the test took 9.8 s to complete one item averagely. According to the CTT, B2 was deleted due to coefficient of total correlation (CITC) <0.3 and the item-dimension correlation coefficient (IDCC) <0.4. B23 was deleted due to CITC<0.3, IDCC<0.4 and difficulty index (W) <0.2. B30 was deleted due to CITC<0.3 and W<0.2. The total Cronbach's α of the scale was 0.923 after deletion. EFA indicated that 14 items should be deleted due to lower factor loadings <0.7. EFA was conducted for remaining 13 items and 2 common factors were extracted, the factor loadings of all items were >0.7, the accumulated variance contribution of the 2 common factors was 63.361%, and the total Cronbach's α was 0.891, showing unidimensionality, IRT was used to test the remaining items. B14 and B20 were deleted due to discrimination coefficient (a) <0.3, difficulty threshold coefficient (b) ∉[-3,3], the small amount of information and the flat, crowded, non-monotonic ICC, and IIC. Finally, the Cronbach's α of the 11-itemed scale was 0.936 with TLI=0.97, CFI=0.99, and RMSEA=0.03. Conclusion: The final scale has good reliability, validity, discrimination, difficulty level and feasibility, and can be applied for the rapid assessment of public health safety literacy in China.

Abstract
Objective: To develop a measurement scale for the public health and safety literacy of university freshmen. Methods: Item pooling was conducted through literature review and in-depth interview with public health experts, and a nominal group was organized to develop the initial items to form the questionnaire. A total of 250 freshmen were randomly selected to complete the questionnaire, and the assessment of psychometric properties were performed to carry out item reduction by using classical test theory and item response theory. Exploratory factor analysis method (EFA) was employed to calculate the item-factor loadings. The data collected from another 318 freshmen were analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis method (CFA). Results: The scale contained 3 dimensions and 9 items with all content validity index ≥0.8. The difficulty coefficient of 9 items was 1.18-2.43. The discriminative validity analysis showed that the difficulty index was 0.41-0.78, and the discrimination index was 0.38-0.64. Each of the remaining items had a statistically significant difference in the score value between the top 27% and lowest 27% of respondents (t>3, P<0.05). The item's Cronbach's α was 0.72-0.77, corrected item-total correlation was 0.33-0.60 and the overall α of the scale was 0.77. EFA indicated all item-factor loading were higher than 0.680, and the accumulated variance contribution of the 3 factors was 62.484%. Results of CFA showed that the overall fitness index of the model reached the fitness standard except for the χ2 value. There was no statistical significance in the total score of the scale and the scores of each item among groups with different demographic characteristics (P>0.05). Conclusions: The newly developed public health safety literacy scale had a good reliability,validity,stability and item constancy.It can be used in measurement of the public health and safety literacy of university freshmen.

Abstract
Bombus longipennis is the species of Bumblebees (Hymenoptera: Apidae), which are important pollinators for wild plants and greenhouses crops. The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of B. longipennis was determined by next-generation sequencing. The mitogenome was 18,458 bp in size with 87.2% A + T content, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and an AT-rich control region (D-loop). Gene arrangement was found to be identical to those of other mitogenomes of bumblebees (e.g. Bombus terrestris and Bombus ignitus). All 13 PCGs initiated with typical ATN codons. Among them, 11 PCGs terminated with TAA or TAG; only cox2 and nad4 have incomplete stop codon T. All 22 tRNAs can be folded into typical cloverleaf structure. Phylogenetic analysis based on the concatenated nucleotide sequences of all 13 PCGs indicated that B. longipennis was more closely related to other species of subgenus Bombus, which clustered into a monophyletic group.

Abstract
Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Bombus filchnerae (Hymenoptera: Apidae). The genome size of B. filchnerae was 18,553 bp with 88.7% A + T content, containing 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and an AT-rich control region (D-loop). tRNA rearrangement was observed in this mitochondrial genome when compared to those of other bumblebee species (e.g. Bombus breviceps and Bombus asiaticus). All the 13 PCGs initiated with typical ATN codons. Among them, 11 PCGs terminated with TAA, only nad4 and nad5 with incomplete stop codon TA and T, respectively. All the 22 tRNAs can be folded into typical cloverleaf structure, except for trnS1, whose dihydrouridine (DHU) arm forms a simple loop. The phylogenetic analysis based on the concatenated nucleotide sequences of all 13 PCGs indicated that B. filchnerae showed the closest relationship with Bombus pascuorum, forming a mono clade of the subgenus Thoracobombus, with well-resolved relationships among nine Bombus subgenera.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the transitions of frailty status and related factors influencing its worsening in middle-aged and elderly adults. Methods: Data was obtained from the Beijing MJ Health Screening Center. A total of 13 689 participants who attended health checkups at least twice during 2008-2019 and had more than three years' intervals during these two health checkups were included in the study. The frailty index comprising 28 variables was used to measure frailty status. Frailty was defined as frailty index ≥0.25, and prefrailty was defined as frailty index >0.10 and <0.25. Logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the association of socio-demographic factors and lifestyle characteristics with the worsening of frailty status, stratified by frailty status at the first health checkup. Results: The mean age at the first and last health checkups were (42.3±9.2) and (47.9±9.3) years, respectively. The mean interval during these two health checkups was (5.7±1.9) years. At the first health checkup, the prevalence of frailty and prefrailty were 2.5% and 50.3%, respectively. While at the last health checkup, the prevalence of frailty and prefrailty rose to 3.9% and 55.4%. Of all participants, 67.3% remained in the same frailty state, 21.2% worsening, and 12.5% improving. In robust participants at the first health checkup, older age, female, low education level, smoking cessation, daily smoking, being general obesity measured by BMI or central obesity measured by WHR showed an increased the risk of worsening frailty status. However, in prefrail participants at the first health checkup, older age, female, general, or central obesity presented as risk factors for worsening frailty status. Conclusion: Modifiable factors such as low education level, smoking, and obesity may increase the risk of worsening frailty status.

Abstract
Objective: To describe the characteristics of human papillomavirus infection and thinprep cytologic test (TCT) outcome in health check-up females in Shenzhen. Methods: Use cross-sectional design, collect information from data from health check-up females in Shenzhen and describe characteristics of HPV infections screening and TCT outcomes. Results: We collected the data of 75 754 females, 103 508 females and 69 964 females received HPV detection, TCT and combined detection respectively. HPV standardized infection rate was 19.89% (95%CI: 19.45%-20.33%) and showed a "U-shaped" pattern in age distribution. The most prevalent HPV genotypes were 52, 51, 16, 58 and 53. Infection rate was higher for high-risk HPV than low-risk HPV genotype. Single infection was more common than its multiple infection. In addition, 7.48% (95%CI: 7.22%-7.75%) women were TCT positive, of whom 4.58% (95%CI: 4.40%-4.76%), 2.54% (2.40%-2.69%), 0.27% (95%CI: 0.23%-0.31%) had atypical squamous cells, low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions, respectively. Overall and subtype HPV infection rates increased with severity of abnormal cervical cytology. The most prevalent HPV genotypes were 52, 58 and 16 in women with abnormal cervical cytology. Conclusions: HPV prevalence remains at a high level in Shenzhen. This study suggests that attention should be paid to HPV screening, especially in young, perimenopausal women and in high risk HPV genotype infection. Timely follow-up and cervical cytology screening are required for women with high-risk HPV infection or persistent infection. Future vaccination strategies should take account of prevalent HPV genotype.

Abstract
Two novel hypotrichous ciliates, Hemiurosomoida warreni nov. spec. and Hemiurosoma clampi nov. spec., isolated from soil in the Lhalu Wetland and Motuo Virgin Forest in Tibet, respectively, were investigated using live observation and protargol staining. Hemiurosomoida warreni nov. spec. strongly resembles the type species H. longa but can be distinguished by its body size in vivo (110-145 × 30-40 μm vs. 50-100 × 18-40 μm), number of adoral membranelles (25-38 vs. 15-22), and numbers of right (29-39 vs. 14-23) and left (26-35 vs. 13-23) marginal cirri, transverse cirri (3 vs. 4 or 5) and macronuclear nodules (4-8 vs. 2). Hemiurosoma clampi nov. spec. is characterized by its vermiform body shape, colourless cortical granules distributed in irregular rows, two macronuclear nodules, three frontal cirri, one buccal cirrus, four frontoventral cirri ranged in a line, two transverse cirri, lacking postoral ventral and pretransverse ventral cirri, and marginal rows that are not posteriorly confluent. Phylogenetic analyses based on SSU rDNA gene sequences suggest that Hemiurosomoida is not monophyletic. A close relationship is revealed between Hemiurosomoida warreni nov. spec., Parakahilella macrostoma, Hemiurosoma clampi nov. spec., and the type species Hemiurosoma terricola. As expected, all these species are classified within the "non-oxytrichid Dorsomarginalia".

Abstract
Quinestrol and levonorgestrel (EP-1, at a ratio of 1:2) are often used as anti-fertility compounds (sterilants) in rodents. As most of the research has focused on the sterility and damage caused in parental reproductive organs, there is little research on the effect of these contraceptive hormones on maternal behavior and offspring's early development. In this study, we examined maternal behavior after treatment with different doses of EP-1 (10 ml/kg) at postnatal days 3 and 10, separately. Various parameters were measured after treatment, including oxytocin expression, serum levels of estradiol and luteinizing hormone (LH), ovary damage after weaning of offspring, as well as the development and ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) of midday gerbil (Meriones meridianus) offspring. At postnatal days 5 and 12, the EP-1 increased maternal licking, grooming, and retrieving behavior, while reducing contacting behavior. Oxytocin expression in the hypothalamic paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei increased, while the levels of estradiol and LH decreased. The ovaries and the development of follicles were clearly affected by the treatment. The EP-1 significantly reduced the pups' body weight, the amount and pulse duration of USVs, whereas the frequency range variation of USVs was increased. Overall, treatment with EP-1 during lactation significantly affected maternal behavior and impaired offspring early development in the midday gerbil.

Abstract
Problems in interoperability is the biggest barrier limiting the use of big data in health care worldwide. Interoperability contains five dimensions: business, security, ethics, semantics and technology. Based on the comparison of the three common interoperability models led by government, enterprise or research institution, and the current status of big data development in China, this paper proposes a new operation model which can be led by university, aided by enterprise and supported by government, and summarizes the three major challenges in the development of big data interoperability in China: professional standard and specification, data security and ethics, incentive mechanism and assessment. Only when a feasible model is adopted, technical difficulties are overcome and data are truly shared, we can achieve maximized integration of multi-source data, expanding its application fields and establish a multi-business mode to comprehensively improve the population based health decision-making and management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE About half or more of treatment-resistant depressed patients do not respond to ketamine, and few clinical predictors to gauge the most likely antidepressant response have been proposed. We explored whether depression subtypes are associated with response to ketamine. METHOD Ninety-seven participants with depression were administered six repeated-dose intravenous ketamine and assessed for depression (Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale, MADRS), anxiety (Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale, HAMA), and suicidal ideation (Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation, SSI) at baseline, 24 h after each infusion, and 2 weeks after the whole treatment. Participants were classified by melancholic/anxious subtype. Individuals who met criteria for neither or both subtypes were classified separately, resulting in four mutually exclusive groups. RESULTS Patients with melancholic or melancholic-anxious features were less likely to respond (e.g., day 13, melancholic-anxious vs. anxious, OR 0.138, 95% CI 0.032-0.584, P = 0.007) or remit (e.g., day 26, melancholic vs. no subtype, OR 0.182, 95% CI 0.035-0.960, P = 0.045) and took longer to achieve response/remission than those with anxious or no subtype features. Faster HAMA score reductions were observed in patients with anxious or melancholic-anxious features, and faster SSI score reductions were observed among those with melancholic-anxious features. CONCLUSION Our study shows promising results for ketamine as a novel antidepressant preferentially for the treatment of non-melancholic or anxious depression.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and purpose
Limited data is available on the situation of cardiogenic shock (CS) complicating ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) in China. This study aims to disclose the incidence, management and in-hospital mortality (IHM) of patients with STEMI complicated by CS (STEMICS) in China and at different levels of hospitals.
Methods
We queried the 2013–2016 China Acute Myocardial Infarction (CAMI) registry databases to identify patients with STEMI and/or CS (developing before or during hospitalization). The overall and different hospital-level incidence of STEMICS and IHM were analyzed.
Results
Of 28230 STEMI patients, 2273 patients (8.05%) had CS. The incidence of STEMICS in provincial, prefectural and county-level hospitals were 5.23%, 8.46% and 13.76% (p<0.001), respectively. Primary PCI (PPCI) was performed on 675 patients (29.7%) with STEMICS. The proportion of STEMICS patients undertaking PPCI in provincial, prefectural and county-level hospitals were 46.53%, 31.48% and 8.00% (p<0.001). The overall IHM rate of patients with STEMICS was 49.8% with no difference among the different hospital levels. However, the IHM rate of prehospital STEMICS in county-level hospitals were significantly higher than that in prefectural and provincial hospitals (42.3% versus 33.3% and 28.3%, respectively; p<0.01), while that of in-hospital STEMICS were similar among the different hospital levels (66.5%, 66.9% and 62.2%; provincial, prefectural and county-level hospitals, respectively). After adjustment, the difference of IHM in prehospital STEMICS between county-level hospitals and the other two levels no longer existed. However, once PPCI was excluded from the multivariable adjustment model, the IHM of prehospital STEMICS remained higher in county-level hospitals.
Table 1. Differences in IHM of prehospital STEMICS between county-level hospitals and other two levels of hospitals before or after adjustment Provincial hospitals/ County-level hospitals Prefectural hospitals/ County-level hospitals Unadjusted OR (95% CI) 0.54 (0.36, 0.80); P=0.0019 0.68 (0.49, 0.94); P=0.0193 Adjusted OR* (95% CI) 0.63 (0.34, 1.17); P=0.1455 0.64 (0.38, 1.08); P=0.0962 Adjusted OR† (95% CI) 0.49 (0.27, 0.90); P=0.0214 0.54 (0.32, 0.91); P=0.0198 IHM: in-hospital mortality; OR: odd ratio; CI: confidence interval. *Adjusted for baseline characteristics, in-hospital medications and primary PCI; †adjusted for baseline characteristics and in-hospital medications.
Figure 1. Flowchart
Conclusion
The overall incidence and IHM rate of STEMICS in China are still high. Especially, higher IHM rate of prehospital STEMICS is observed in county-level hospitals, which may be attributed to the lower implementation rate of PPCI.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the role of combining relative alpha variability and electroencephalogram (EEG) reactivity to predict the prognosis of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy(HIE) in adult patients. Methods: A total of 28 adult patients with HIE admitted to general intensive care unit at Xiangya Hospital in Central South University were enrolled in this observational study from January2016 to April 2017. These patients with body temperature over 35℃ after 72-hour admission could be continuously monitored at least 12 hours byEEG.At the same time,each patient was assessed for EEG reactivity.Then we analyzed the correlation between EEG reactivity, relative alpha variability and clinical prognosis. Results: EEG reactivity was elicited in 15/28 patients, among whom 12 patients had a good outcome. While in the other 13 patients, EEG reactivity was not elicited, among whom only 3 patients had a good outcome. As to the results ofrelative alpha variability,11/13 patients with degree 3-4were of good prognosis; while only 3/15 patients with degree 1-2 were of good prognosis. Glasgow coma scale(GCS), EEG reactivity, and relative alpha variability were correlated with clinical outcome(χ(2)=5.073,9.073,-3.626, respectively,all P<0.05). The sensitivity of GCS, EEG reactivity, and relative alpha variability to predict the poor prognosis were 69.2%, 76.9%, 84.6%, respectively. The specificity were 73.3%, 80.0%, 73.3%, respectively. The consistency rates were 71.4%, 78.6%, 78.6%, respectively. The positive predictive values were 69.2%, 76.9%, 73.3%, respectively. The negative predictive values were 73.3%, 80.0%, 84.6%, respectively. More importantly, the accuracy of the relative alpha variability combined with EEG reactivity for the prediction of poor prognosis was much higher with the positive predictive value of 90.0%,the specificity of 93.3%, the sensitivity of 69.2%, the consistency rate of 82.1%,and the negative predictive values of 77.8%. Conclusions: The combination of relative alpha variability and EEG reactivityis reliable to predict clinical outcome of patients with HIE.

Abstract
Objective: To describe the clinicopathological features of synchronous mucinous metaplasia and neoplasia of the female genital tract (SMMN-FGT). Methods: The sample consisted of 7 cases of SMMN-FGT recorded from November 2014 to September 2017 at Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Fudan University.PAP method was used in immunohistochemistry.Clinical histories were retrieved and pathological slides were reviewed. Results: The patients were 37 to 70 years old(mean 54 years old). All patients showed endometrial mucinous lesions associated with cervical lesions. Three cases were an admixture of minimal deviation adenocarcinoma(MDA) and gastrictype adenocarcinoma(GAS). Three cases were an admixture of lobular endocervical glandular hyperplasia (LEGH), atypical LEGH and focal gastrictype adenocarcinoma in situ, one of which had early invasive gastrictype adenocarcinoma.Endometrium showed a structure of LEGH in one patient with focal simple gastric mucinous metaplasia in her cervix. Gastric mucinous differentiation was found in unilateral fallopian tube in 6 patients. Ovarian mucinous lesions were found in 3 patients. p16 was negative staining in 6 cases and positive in 1 case. CK7 was diffusely positive in all lesions. CK20 and CDX2 were negative or only focally positive.The expression of MUC6 was strongly positive staining or focal staining. p53 in GAS and GAS in situ had mutant expression, but wild expression in MDA region. Patients were followed up for 2 to 34 months and no recurrence was found. Conclusions: SMMN-FGT is a series of rare mucinous lesions involving multiple areas of the female genital tract, including benign or malignant lesions with gastric differentiation. It is not related to infection with high-risk human papilloma virus. When cervical gastrictype lesions are found, SMMN-FGT should be considered and should be differentiated from metastatic mucinous adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics and prognosis of ovarian clear cell borderline tumor. Methods: A total of 12 cases of ovarian clear cell borderline tumors recorded were collected from May 2011 to December 2017 at Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Fudan University.Clinical histories were retrieved and pathological slides were reviewed. Results: The age of the patients ranged from 35 to 65 years with a mean age of 52 years. Seven cases were associated with cystic endometriosis of the ovary. All tumors consisted of irregular and crowded glands or cysts embedded in a fibromatous stroma. The cysts and glands were lined by mild to moderate atypical cells.CK7 and HNF-1β were expressed in all cases, and Naspin A was expressed in 11 cases. ARID1A expression was absent in 5 cases and p53 showed wild-type expression. None of the cases developed recurrence during follow-up ranging from 7 to 79 months. Conclusions: Ovarian clear cell borderline tumor may be associated with endometriosis and tumor suppressor gene ARIDA. The tumor has a good prognosis without recurrence and progression to carcinoma.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of emergency thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) in patients with acute traumatic thoracic aortic injury. Method: From January 2014 to December 2016, a total of 35 patients with acute traumatic thoracic aortic injuries were treated with emergency TEVAR in our hospital, their clinical data were analyzed retrospectively in this study. Results: The patients were 42 (34, 55) years old,and there were 31 males.All cases were diagnosed by emergency aorta computed tomography angiography (CTA),and 5 cases were diagnosed as aortic transaction, 13 cases were diagnosed as aortic pseudoaneurysm, 7 cases were diagnosed as aortic dissection, and 10 cases were diagnosed as aortic intramural hematoma combined hemothorax.The concomitant injuries included cerebral contusion (3 cases, 8.6%), pulmonary contusion with rib fracture (31 cases, 88.5%), long bone fracture (7 cases, 22.5%), contusion of viscera or internal organs (3 cases, 8.6%).Emergency TEVAR were performed with vascular suture system preset under local anesthesia after diagnosis,and combined injury was treated in related departments.CTA was repeated after 1, 3 and 6 months and yearly thereafter. One patient died before transferring to catheter room,and 34 (97.1%) patients underwent TEVAR procedure successfully.Time from door to operating room was (88.6±26.6) minutes,and the procedure time was (52.0±9.4) minutes. A total of 69 Perclose Proglide vascular suture system were used,and 2 cases underwent surgical suture because of hematoma and pseudoaneurysm formation in femoral arteries.The involved length of thoracic aorta was (44.5±7.4)mm. A total of 46 stent-grafts were implanted, the length of stent-graft was (164.3±15.2)mm,and the proximal oversize rate was (22.3±8.6)%. The follow-up time was 24 (12,24) months, and there were no procedure related complication such as endoleak and paraplegia. Complete aortic remodeling was observed in 14 cases. Fully thrombolization at stent segments were observed in 7 cases. Fully thrombalization of pseudoaneurysms were observed in 13 cases. One patient complained mild left upper limb weakness due to left subclavian artery occlusion. Conclusion: Emergency TEVAR is safe and effective procedure for the treatment of patients with acute traumatic thoracic aortic injury.

Abstract
Aim Osteoarthritis (OA) is caused by complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors. Epigenetic mechanisms control the expression of genes and are likely to regulate the OA transcriptome. We performed integrative genomic analyses to define methylation-gene expression relationships in osteoarthritic cartilage. Patients and Methods Genome-wide DNA methylation profiling of articular cartilage from five patients with OA of the knee and five healthy controls was conducted using the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip (Illumina, San Diego, California). Other independent genome-wide mRNA expression profiles of articular cartilage from three patients with OA and three healthy controls were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Integrative pathway enrichment analysis of DNA methylation and mRNA expression profiles was performed using integrated analysis of cross-platform microarray and pathway software. Gene ontology (GO) analysis was conducted using the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID). Results We identified 1265 differentially methylated genes, of which 145 are associated with significant changes in gene expression, such as DLX5, NCOR2 and AXIN2 (all p-values of both DNA methylation and mRNA expression < 0.05). Pathway enrichment analysis identified 26 OA-associated pathways, such as mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling pathway (p = 6.25 × 10-4), phosphatidylinositol (PI) signalling system (p = 4.38 × 10-3), hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) signalling pathway (p = 8.63 × 10-3 pantothenate and coenzyme A (CoA) biosynthesis (p = 0.017), ErbB signalling pathway (p = 0.024), inositol phosphate (IP) metabolism (p = 0.025), and calcium signalling pathway (p = 0.032). Conclusion We identified a group of genes and biological pathwayswhich were significantly different in both DNA methylation and mRNA expression profiles between patients with OA and controls. These results may provide new clues for clarifying the mechanisms involved in the development of OA. Cite this article: A. He, Y. Ning, Y. Wen, Y. Cai, K. Xu, Y. Cai, J. Han, L. Liu, Y. Du, X.

Abstract
Delay in treating active tuberculosis (TB) impedes disease control by allowing ongoing transmission, and may explain the unexpectedly modest declines in global TB incidence. Even though China has achieved TB control targets under the global Directly Observed Treatment, Short course (DOTS) strategy, TB prevalence in western provinces, including Yunnan, is not decreasing. This cross-sectional study investigates whether prolonged delay in identifying and correctly treating TB patients, which is not routinely monitored, persists even when there is a well-functioning TB control programme and global targets are being met. Records of adult smear-positive pulmonary TB patients diagnosed with between 2006 and 2013 were extracted from the Yunnan Centre for Disease Control electronic database, which contains information on the entire population of TB patients managed across 129 diagnostic centres. Delay was investigated at three stages: delay to DOTS facility (period between symptom onset and first visit to at a CDC unit providing standardized treatment); delay to TB confirmation (period between reaching a CDC unit and confirmation of smear-positive TB) and delay to treatment (period between confirmation of TB and initiation of treatment). Data from 76 486 patients was analysed. Delay to reaching a DOTS facility was by far the largest contributor to total delay to treatment initiation. The median delay to reaching a DOTS facility, to TB confirmation and to treatment was 57 days (IQR 25-112), 2 days (IQR 1-6) and 1 day (IQR 0-1) respectively. Prolonged delays to reaching a facility providing standardized TB care occurred in a substantial subset of the population despite all TB control targets being met; overall, 32% (24 676) of patients experienced a delay of more than 90 days to reaching a DOTS facility. Policies that focus on reducing delays in accessing appropriate health services, rather than only on increasing overall case-detection rates, may result in greater progress towards reducing TB incidence.
