Abstract
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous gamma herpesvirus that maintains a lifelong latent association with B lymphocytes. Here, a rapid and reliable diagnosis platform for detecting EBV infection, employing loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) combined with a gold nanoparticles-based lateral flow biosensors (AuNPs-LFB) (termed LAMP Amplification Mediated AuNPs-LFB Detection, LAMAD), was developed in the current study. A set of specific LAMP primers targeting the Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen (EBNA) leader protein (EBNA-LP) gene was designed and synthesized. Subsequently, these templates extracted from various pathogens and whole blood samples were used to optimize and evaluate the EBV-LAMAD assay. As a result, the limit of detection (LoD) of the EBV-LAMAD assay was 45 copies/reaction. The EBV-LAMAD assay can detect all representative EBV pathogens used in the study, and of note, no cross-reactions were observed with other non-EBV organisms. Moreover, the whole workflow of the EBV-LAMAD assay can be completed within 70 min, including rapid EBV template preparation, EBV-LAMP amplification, and AuNPs-LFB-mediated detection. Taken together, the EBV-LAMAD assay targeting the EBNA-LP gene is a rapid, simplified, sensitive, reliable, and easy-to-use detection protocol that can be used as a competitive potential diagnostic/screening tool for EBV infection in clinical settings, especially in basic laboratories in resource-limited regions. KEY POINTS: • A novel, simplified, and easy-to-use AuNPs-LFB biosensor was designed and prepared. • LAMP combined with an AuNPs-LFB targeting the novel EBNA-LP gene was established. • EBV-LAMAD is a rapid, sensitive, and reliable detection protocol for EBV infection.

Abstract
Chickpea protein (CP) is a promising plant protein ingredient, but the poor solubility has limited its broad application. In this study, heating followed by high-pressure homogenization (HPH) was used to improve the solubility of CP. The results showed that combined heat (80℃, 30 min) and HPH (80 MPa, 2 cycles) treatment exhibited an additive effect in improving the solubility of CP. This improvement could be attributed to the dissociation and the rearrangement of large insoluble protein aggregates into small-sized soluble protein aggregates, the increased exposure of hydrophobic residues and reactive sulfhydryl groups, the transformation of α-helices to β-sheets and β-turns. Moreover, the 11S subunits of CP could form reinforced disulfide covalent cross-links under heating + HPH, which may provide steric hindrance preventing the reassembly of large protein bodies. This work proposes an interesting approach to enhance the physicochemical properties of CP for tailoring techno-functional plant protein ingredients in food formulations.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is a clinical chemotherapeutic drug and patients usually suffer from dose-dependent cytotoxic and side effects during chemotherapy process with DOX. Therefore, developing a reliable strategy for DOX analysis in biological samples for dosage guidance during chemotherapy process is of great significance. Herein, a sensitive and selective electrochemical biosensor for DOX detection was designed based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and DNA tetrahedron (TDN) nanoprobe bifunctional glassy carbon electrode that could detect DOX in human serum and cell lysate samples. AuNPs not only could enhance electron transfer efficiency and detection sensitivity, but also could improve the biocompatibility of electrode. TDN nanoprobes were employed as specific DOX bind sites that could bind abundant DOX through intercalative characteristics to contribute to sensitive and selective detection. Under the optimal conditions, the proposed TDN nanoprobes-based DOX biosensor exhibited a wide linear range that ranged from 1.0 nM to 50 μM and a low detection limit that was 0.3 nM. Moreover, the proposed DOX biosensor displayed nice selectivity, reproducibility and stability, and was successfully applied for DOX detection in human serum and cell lysate samples. These promising results maybe pave a way for DOX dosage guidance and therapeutic efficacy optimization in clinic.

Abstract
Changes in circulating let-7c were significantly associated with the alter in lipid profile, but its role in intracellular lipid metabolism remains unknown. This work was conducted to explore the effects of let-7c on the lipid accumulation in macrophages and uncover the underlying mechanism. Our results showed that let-7c inhibition relieved atherosclerosis progression in apoE-/- mice. In ox-LDL-treatment macrophages, let-7c knockdown suppressed lipid accumulation but does no affect cholesterol intake. Consistent with this, overexpression of let-7c promoted lipid accumulation by reducing the expression of LXRα and ABCA1/G1. Mechanistically, let-7c targeted PGC-1α to repress the expression of LXRα and ABCA1/G1, thereby regulating cholesterol homeostasis in macrophages. Taken together, these findings suggest that antagonism of let-7c reduces atherosclerosis and macrophage lipid accumulation through the PGC-1α/LXRα/ABCA1/G1 axis.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Jiawei Yanghe Decoction (JWYHD) is modified Yanghe Decoction (YHD). YHD historically utilized as a potent medicinal solution for addressing chronic inflammatory conditions, holds promising therapeutic potential in the treatment of asthma. However, the mechanisms underlying JWYHD's effects on allergic asthma remain unclear. AIM OF THE STUDY To investigate the therapeutic effect as well as the underlying mechanisms of JWYHD on asthmatic mice. MATERIALS AND METHODS The ovalbumin (OVA)-induced mouse model was utilized, followed by the administration of JWYHD to allergic asthmatic mice. Subsequently, inflammatory cells in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung tissues were conducted. The levels of various cytokines including interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5, IL-13, IL-33, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and interferon (IFN)-γ in BALF, as well as the total immunoglobulin E (IgE) content in serum, were assessed. Lung function and tissue pathology examinations were performed to assess the protective impacts of JWYHD. The chemical components of JWYHD and its lung prototype compounds (referred to the chemical components present in JWYHD that were observed in the lung) were explored by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF/MS). RNA-seq analysis revealed the regulation mechanisms of JWYHD treating asthma. Furthermore, the effect of JWYHD on type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) in asthmatic mice was detected by flow cytometry and Smart-RNA-seq analysis. Then molecular docking analysis was used to show the interaction between identified compounds and key targets. RESULTS JWYHD significantly attenuated the airway inflammation of asthmatic mice, reduced the levels of inflammatory cells in BALF, as well the levels of the cytokines IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, IL-33, and TNF-α in BALF and IgE in serum. Airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) and lung inflammation infiltration were also alleviated by JWYHD. Moreover, RNA-seq analysis revealed that JWYHD attenuated airway inflammation in asthmatic mice via regulating immunity. Flow cytometry confirmed that JWYHD could inhibit ILC2 responses. ILC2 Smart-RNA-seq analysis showed that JWYHD impaired the inflammation reaction-related signaling pathways in ILC2s, and neuropilin-1 (Nrp1), endothelial transcription factor 3 (GATA3) and interleukin 1 receptor like protein 1 (ST2) might be the key targets. The molecular docking analysis investigating the connection between the primary targets and JWYHD's prototype compounds in the lung demonstrated that liquiritin apioside, icariin, glycyrrhizic acid, and uralsaponin B, identified through UPLC-Q-TOF/MS, exhibited significant affinity in binding to the mentioned key targets. CONCLUSION Our results suggested that the mechanism of JWYHD in treating asthma might be related to limiting ILC2 responses. Our findings provided some pharmacological evidence for the clinical application of JWYHD in the treatment of asthma.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY RELEVANCE Traditional herbal medicines have been considered as a novel and effective way to treat many diseases. Lizhong decoction (LZD), a classical prescription composed of Zingiber officinale Rosc., Panax ginseng C. A. Mey., Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz., and Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch., has been used to treat gastrointestinal disorders in clinical practices for thousands of years. However, the mechanism of LZD in alleviating ulcerative colitis (UC) is still unclear. AIM OF THE STUDY The purpose of this study was to clarify the potential molecular mechanism of LZD in improving UC. MATERIALS AND METHODS The amelioration of LZD on dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced UC mice was evaluated by body weight, colon length, pathology of colon tissues, pro-inflammatory cytokines, and intestinal tight junction (TJ) proteins. Moreover, the gene expression profiles of UC patients were extracted to investigate potential pathological mechanisms of UC. The influence of LZD on ferroptosis was analyzed by iron load, malondialdehyde (MDA), and the expression of ferroptosis-associated proteins. Meanwhile, the inhibition of LZD on oxidative stress (OS) was assessed by the superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, as well as the expression levels of glutathione (GSH) and glutathione disulfide (GSSG). Furthermore, the influence of LZD on ferroptosis was assessed by inhibiting nuclear factor (erythroid-derived-2)-like 2 (Nrf2). RESULTS LZD showed significant therapeutic effects in UC mice, including reduction of intestinal injury and inflammation. Moreover, LZD treatment notably upregulated the expression of TJ proteins. Further investigation indicated that LZD significantly inhibited the ferroptosis of enterocytes by decreasing iron load and MDA, and increasing the expression levels of solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11) and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) in colon tissues. Furthermore, the decreased activity of SOD, reduced level of GSH, and increased content of GSSG in UC mice were notably reversed by LZD. Consistent with in vivo results, LZD could markedly inhibit ferroptosis and OS in RSL3-induced Caco-2 cells. Mechanistically, LZD alleviated ferroptosis by suppressing OS through the activation of Nrf2 signaling. CONCLUSIONS Collectively, LZD remarkably improved intestinal pathological injury in UC mice, and its potential mechanism was the suppression of ferroptosis in enterocytes by the Nrf2/SLC7A11/GPX4 pathway.

Abstract
Polyacrylamide (PAM) hydrogels have garnered significant attention due to their unique swelling properties, biocompatibility, and stability, resulting in them being promising candidates for various applications, ranging from drug delivery to tissue engineering. However, traditional PAM hydrogels suffer from low strength and poor toughness, which limits their widespread use. In this study, based on the theory of filler-reinforced composites, we introduced ordered sulfonated polystyrene (SPS) particles into PAM hydrogels using electric field-assisted techniques. The effects of the geometric dimensions and filling concentration of SPS particles on thermal stability, swelling/deswelling behavior, and mechanical properties of composite hydrogels were investigated. When filled with ordered 100 nm SPS particles at a concentration of 2.0 g·L-1, the resulting SPS/PAM composite exhibited improved water retention capacity, as well as a fracture elongation of 316 % and a tensile strength of 23 kPa. These findings in the paper provide valuable insights into the understanding of PAM hydrogels and open up new avenues for the development of advanced hydrogel-based systems with enhanced performance and functionality.

Abstract
African swine fever (ASF), caused by the ASF virus (ASFV), is a hemorrhagic and fatal viral disease that affects Eurasian wild boars and domestic pigs, posing a substantial threat to the global pig breeding industry. ASFV, a double-stranded DNA virus, possesses a large genome containing up to 160 open reading frames, most of which exhibit unknown functions. The B125R gene of ASFV, located at the 105595-105972 bp site in the ASFV-SY18 genome, remains unexplored. In this study, we discovered that B125R deletion did not affect recombinant virus rescue, nor did it hinder viral replication during the intermediate growth phase. Although the virulence of the recombinant strain harboring this deletion was attenuated, intramuscular inoculation of the recombinant virus in pigs at doses of 102 or 104 TCID50 resulted in mortality. Moreover, sequencing analysis of six recombinant strains obtained from three independent experiments consistently revealed an adenine insertion at the 47367-47375 bp site in the A104R gene due to the B125R deletion, leading to premature termination of this gene. Intriguingly, this insertion did not influence the transcription of the A104R gene between the recombinant and parental strains. Consequently, we postulate that the deletion of the B125R gene in ASFV-SY18 or other genotype II strains may marginally attenuate virulence in domestic pigs.

Abstract
Malus 'Pinkspire' is regulated by abscisic acid (ABA), which results in a red colour, but the regulatory relationship between ABA and anthocyanin synthesis has not been determined. The key factors affecting the colour change of M. 'Pinkspire' peel were investigated during the periods of significant colour changes during fruit ripening. The results showed that the transcription factor MpbZIP9 associated with ABA was screened by transcriptomic analysis. MpbZIP9 expression was consistent with the trend of structural genes expression for anthocyanin synthesis in the peel during fruit ripening, as well as with changes in the content of ABA, which is a positive regulator. A yeast one-hybrid assay showed that MpbZIP9 can directly bind to the promoter of MpF3'H. Dual luciferase reporter gene assays and GUS staining experiments showed that MpbZIP9 significantly activate MpF3'H expression. In addition, overexpression of the MpbZIP9 significantly enhanced anthocyanin accumulation and the expression of genes involved in anthocyanin synthesis. In contrast, virus-induced silencing of the MpbZIP9 significantly reduced the expression of structural genes involved in anthocyanin synthesis. These results suggest that the MpbZIP9 transcription factor can regulate the synthesis of peel anthocyanin and is a positive regulator that promotes anthocyanin biosynthesis by activating MpF3'H expression.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a potent carcinogen, and is among the most dangerous mycotoxins in agricultural products. In this study, an ultrasensitive dual-mode immunosensor was developed for naked-eye and fluorescence detection of OTA based on Ag-doped core-shell nanohybrids (Ag@CSNH). Complete antigen-labeled Ag@CSNH (CA-Ag@CSNH) were used as a competitive bind and dual-mode probe. The diffused doping structure of CA-Ag@CSNH provided improved stability, color and fluorescence quencher performance. Antibodies modified magnetic beads were used as a capture probe. The competitive binding between OTA and CA-Ag@CSNH produced both color change and fluorescence quenching. Ultraviolet and fluorescence intensitie correlated linearly with OTA concentration ranges of 0.03-3 ng/mL and 10-10000 pg/mL, and limits of detection of 0.0235 ng/mL and 0.9921 pg/mL, respectively. The practical applicability of proposed strategy was demonstrated by analysis of OTA in spiked corn, soybean and flour samples. This study offers a new insight on multi-mode platforms for various applications.

Abstract
In the context of rapid urbanization, scarce land resources have highlighted the importance of attached green spaces (AGS), which have received limited attention despite their critical importance in the urban carbon cycle. Analyzing the differences in carbon storage of different AGS types and proposing different optimization strategies can provide a reference for urban managers to scientifically enhance the carbon sinks of greenfield. This study estimated the carbon storage of AGS in central Shanghai using a series of detailed field survey data and remote sensing data. The results showed that AGS stored 296 Gg (1Gg = 109 g) of carbon, accounting for 56 % of the total carbon storage in all urban green spaces. While carbon density in AGS is lower than that in other green space types due to the dominance of small trees, simple vegetation structures and poor maintenance in some areas. Significant differences in carbon storage capacity were also found among different types of AGS, related to individual vegetation attributes and vegetation structure. Our findings emphasized that optimal design strategies should be different for various green space types, and proposed corresponding optimization strategies for different AGS types. Furthermore, the dual role of multi-layered planting structures in carbon sinks and biodiversity was also emphasized.

Abstract
Due to the challenges involved in achieving high metal load, uniform metal dispersion and nanosized metal particles simultaneously, it is difficult to develop a simple protocol for the rapid and efficient synthesis of Pt-based composites for electrocatalytic ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR). In this study, a facile ultrafast thermal shock strategy via Joule heating was applied to fabricate a series of PtCoCu ternary nanoalloys decorated carbon nanotube composites (TS-PtCoCu/CNTs), without the need for a reducing agent or surfactant. The TS-PtCoCu/CNTs with optimal Pt content (∼15 %) exhibited excellent EOR activity, with mass and specific activity of 3.58 A mgPt-1 and 5.79 mA cm-2, respectively, which are 3.8 and 13.5 times higher than those of Pt/C. Compared with the control prepared through the traditional furnace annealing, the catalyst also showed excellent activity and stability. DFT calculations revealed that the TS-PtCoCu/CNTs possesses a downshifted d-band center, weakened CO adsorption and higher OH affinity compared with monometallic Pt, all of which lead to the preferred C1 pathway for EOR. This study demonstrates an ultrafast construction of a highly efficient Pt-Co-Cu ternary catalyst for EOR. Additionally, it provides insights into the reaction mechanism based on structural characterization, electrochemical characterization, and theoretical calculations.

Abstract
Upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs)-mediated in-situ imaging and synergistic therapy may be an effective approach against tumors. However, it remains a challenge to improve therapeutic index and reduce toxicity. Here, we investigated the construction process of a three-layer (core-shell-shell) upconversion nano-jelly hydrogels (UCNJs) coated with stimulus-responsive deoxyribonucleic acid chains, aiming to achieve selective recognition of tumor cells and controlled release of drugs. The UCNJs have a NaYF4: Yb, Er core with an outer silica shell with embedded methylene blue (MB). Then the outer layer was coated with mesoporous silica and loaded with doxorubicin (DOX). Finally, polyacrylamide chains containing anti-adenosine triphosphate (ATP) aptamer sequences were assembled layer-by-layer on the surface of particles to form DNA hydrogels to lock DOX. Under near-infrared irradiation, green light (540 nm) emitted by UCNJs can be used for imaging, while red light (660 nm) is absorbed by MB. The latter generates singlet oxygen, resulting in photodynamic therapy (PDT) effect to inhibit tumor growth. UCNJs also can recognize ATP in tumor cells, leading to hydrogel degradation and DOX release. The hydrogel coating can increase drug-carrying capacity of mesoporous materials and improve biocompatibility. Therefore, the UCNJs has great potential advantages for application in the field of cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Volatilization from soil to air is a key process driving the distribution and fate of semi-volatile organic contaminants. However, quantifying this process and the key environmental governing factors remains difficult. To address this issue, the volatilization fluxes of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and organophosphate esters (OPEs) from soil were determined in 16 batch experiments orthogonally with six variables (chemical property, soil concentration, air velocity, ambient temperature, soil porosity, and soil moisture) and analyzed with machine learning methods. The results showed that gradient-boosting regression tree models satisfactorily predicted the volatilization fluxes of PBDEs (r2 = 0.82 ± 0.07) and OPEs (r2 = 0.62 ± 0.13). Permutation importance analysis showed that partitioning potential of chemicals between soil and air was the most important factor regulating the volatilization of the target compounds from soil. Temperature and soil porosity played a secondary role in controlling the migration of PBDEs and OPEs, respectively, due to higher volatilization enthalpies of PBDEs than those of OPEs and dominant adsorption of OPEs on mineral surface. The effect of soil moisture was negative and positive for the volatilization fluxes of PBDEs and OPEs, respectively. These results suggested different responses in the soil-air diffusive transport of PBDEs and OPEs to high temperature and rainstorm induced by climate change.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Lizhong decoction (LZD), a classical herbal prescription recorded by Zhang Zhongjing in Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases, has been extensively used to treat ulcerative colitis (UC) in clinical practice for thousands of years. However, its material basis and underlying mechanism are not yet clear. AIM OF THE STUDY This study aims to explore the material basis and potential mechanism of LZD against UC based on the spectrum-effect relationship and network pharmacology. MATERIALS AND METHODS First, LZD was extracted by a systematic solvent extraction method into four parts. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS) technique was used to identify the compounds from different polar parts, and dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis model was used to evaluate the efficacy of each fraction. Then, the spectrum-effect analyses of compounds and efficacy indicators were established via grey relational analysis (GRA), bivariate correlation analysis (BCA) and partial least squares regression (PLSR). Finally, the potential mechanism of LZD for UC therapy was explored by network pharmacology, and the results were further verified by molecular docking and reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). RESULTS 66 chemical components of LZD were identified by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS technology. The pharmacodynamic results showed that extraction parts of LZD had different therapeutic effects on UC, among which ethyl acetate and n-butanol extracts had significant anti-colitis effects, which might be the main effective fractions of LZD. Furthermore, the spectrum-effect analyses indicated that 21 active ingredients such as liquiritin apioside, neolicuroside, formononetin, ginsenoside Rg1, 6-gingesulfonic acid, licoricesaponin A3, liquiritin, glycyrrhizic acid were the main material basis for LZD improving UC. Based on the above results, network pharmacology suggested that the amelioration of LZD on UC might be closely related to the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. Additionally, molecular docking technology and RT-qPCR further verified that LZD could markedly inhibit the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. CONCLUSION Overall, our study first identified the chemical compositions of LZD by using UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS. Furthermore, the material basis and potential mechanism of LZD in improving UC were comprehensively elucidated via spectrum-effect relationships, network pharmacology, molecular docking and experimental verification. The proposed strategy provided a systematic approach for exploring how herbal medicines worked. More importantly, it laid the solid foundation for further clinical application and rational development of LZD.

Abstract
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is featured by notorious EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) resistance attributable to activation of parallel pathways. The numerous phase I/II trials have rarely shown encouraging clinical outcomes of EGFR-TKIs during treatment in HNSCC patients with advanced tumors. A unique IL-6/STAT3 signaling axis is reported to regulate multiple cancer-related pathways, but whether this signaling is correlated with reduced EGFR-TKI responsiveness is unclear. Here, we found that STAT3 signaling is compensatorily upregulated after EGFR-TKI exposure and confers anti-EGFR therapy resistance during HNSCC therapy. Targeting STAT3 using small molecule inhibitors promotes complete recovery or sustained elimination of HNSCC tumors through combination with EGFR-TKIs both in vitro and in diverse animal models. Mechanistically, phosphorylated STAT3 was proven to enhance oncogenic autophagic flux, protecting cancer cells and preventing EGFR-TKI-induced tumor apoptosis. Thus, blockade of STAT3 signaling simultaneously disrupts several key interactions during tumor progression and remodels the autophagic degradation system, thereby rendering advanced HNSCC eradicable through combination with EGFR-TKI therapy. These findings provide a clinically actionable strategy and suggest STAT3 as a predictive biomarker with therapeutic potential for EGFR-TKI resistant HNSCC patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE To predict histopathological differentiation grades in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) before surgery with quantitative and qualitative variables obtained from dual-layer spectral detector CT (DLCT). METHODS Totally 128 patients with histopathologically confirmed PDAC and preoperative DLCT were retrospectively enrolled and categorized into the low-grade (LG) (well and moderately differentiated, n = 82) and high-grade (HG) (poorly differentiated, n = 46) subgroups. Both conventional and spectral variables for PDAC were measured. The ratio of iodine concentration (IC) values in arterial phase(AP) and venous phase (VP) was defined as iodine enhancement fraction_AP/VP (IEF_AP/VP). Necrosis was visually assessed on both conventional CT images (necrosis_con) and virtual mono-energetic images (VMIs) at 40 keV (necrosis_40keV). Forward stepwise logistic regression method was conducted to perform univariable and multivariable analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and the DeLong method were used to evaluate and compare the efficiencies of variables in predicting tumor grade. RESULTS Necrosis_con (odds ratio [OR] = 2.84, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.13-7.13; p < 0.001) was an independent predictor among conventional variables, and necrosis_40keV (OR = 5.82, 95% CI: 1.98-17.11; p = 0.001) and IEF_AP/VP (OR = 1.12, 95% CI:1.07-1.17; p < 0.001) were independent predictors among spectral variables for distinguishing LG PDAC from HG PDAC. IEF_AP/VP (AUC = 0.754, p = 0.016) and combination model (AUC = 0.812, p < 0.001) had better predictive performances than necrosis_con (AUC = 0.580). The combination model yielded the highest sensitivity (72%) and accuracy (79%), while IEF_AP/VP exhibited the highest specificity (89%). CONCLUSION Variables derived from DLCT have the potential to preoperatively evaluate PDAC tumor grade. Furthermore, spectral variables and their combination exhibited superior predictive performances than conventional CT variables.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rice is one of the most consumed cereals in the world. Productivity losses are caused by different biotic stresses. One of the most common is the phytophagous mite Schizotetranychus oryzae Rossi de Simons (Acari: Tetranychidae), which inhibits plant development and seed production. The identification of plant defense proteins is important for a better understanding of the mite-plant interaction. We previously detected a high expression of Osmotin1 protein in mite-resistant rice cultivars, under infested conditions, suggesting it could be involved in plant defense against mite attack. We therefore aimed to evaluate the responses of three rice lines overexpressing Osmotin1 (OSM1-OE) and three lines lacking the Osmotin1 gene (osm1-ko) to mite attack. RESULTS The numbers of individuals (adults, immature stages, and eggs) were significantly lower in OSM1-OE lines than those in wild-type (WT) plants. On the other hand, the osm1-ko lines showed larger numbers of mites per leaf than WT plants. When plants reached the full maturity stage, two out of the three infested OSM1-OE lines presented lower plant height than WT, while the three osm1-ko lines (infested or not) presented higher plant height than WT. The reduction in seed number caused by mite infestation was lower in OSM1-OE lines (12-19%) than in WT plants (34%), while osm1-ko lines presented higher reduction (24-54%) in seed number than WT plants (13%). CONCLUSION These data suggest that Osmotin1 is involved in rice resistance to S. oryzae infestation. This is the first work showing increased plant resistance to herbivory overexpressing an Osmotin gene. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Ammonium nitrogen (NH4 +-N) is essential for fruit tree growth, but the impact of excess NH4 +-N from fertilizer on evergreen citrus trees is unclear. In a climate chamber, 8-month-old citrus plants were exposed to five different hydroponic NH4 +-N concentrations (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 mm) for 1 month to study effects of NH4 +-N on growth characteristics, N uptake, metabolism, antioxidant enzymes and osmotic regulatory substances. Application of 10 mm NH4 +-N adversely affected root plasma membrane integrity, root physiological functions, and plant biomass. MDA, CAT, POD, APX and SOD content were significantly correlated with leaf N metabolic enzyme activity (GOGAT, GDH, GS and NR). GDH was the primary enzyme involved in NH4 +-N assimilation in leaves, while the primary pathway involved in roots was GS-GOGAT. Under comparatively high NH4 + addition, roots were the main organs involved in NH4 + utilization in citrus seedlings. Our results demonstrated that variations in NH4 + concentration and enzyme activity in various organs are associated with more effective N metabolism in roots than in leaves to prevent NH4 + toxicity in evergreen woody citrus plants. These results provide insight into the N forms used by citrus plants that are important for N fertilizer management.

Abstract
Bipolar disorder (BD) is a severe affective disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of depression or mania/hypomania, which significantly impair cognitive function, life skills, and social abilities of patients. There is little understanding of the neurobiological mechanisms of BD. The diagnosis of BD is primarily based on clinical assessment and psychiatric examination, highlighting the urgent need for objective markers to facilitate the diagnosis of BD. Metabolomics can be used as a diagnostic tool for disease identification and evaluation. This study summarized the altered metabolites in BD and analyzed aberrant metabolic pathways, which might contribute to the diagnosis of BD. Search of PubMed and Web of science for human BD studies related to metabolism to identify articles published up to November 19, 2022 yielded 987 articles. After screening and applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 16 untargeted and 11 targeted metabolomics studies were included. Pathway analysis of the potential differential biometabolic markers was performed using the Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG). There were 72 upregulated and 134 downregulated biomarkers in the untargeted metabolomics studies using blood samples. Untargeted metabolomics studies utilizing urine specimens revealed the presence of 78 upregulated and 54 downregulated metabolites. The targeted metabolomics studies revealed abnormalities in the metabolism of glutamate and tryptophan. Enrichment analysis revealed that the differential metabolic pathways were mainly involved in the metabolism of glucose, amino acid and fatty acid. These findings suggested that certain metabolic biomarkers or metabolic biomarker panels might serve as a reference for the diagnosis of BD.

Abstract
The high-level integration and interaction between the information flow at the cyber layer and the physical subjects at the vehicular layer enables the connected automated vehicles (CAVs) to achieve rapid, cooperative and shared travel. However, the cyber layer is challenged by malicious attacks and the shortage of communication resources, which makes the vehicular layer suffer from system nonlinearity, disturbance randomness and behavior uncertainty, thus interfering with the stable operation of the platoon. So far, scholars usually adopt the method of assuming or improving the car-following model to explore the platoon behavior and the defense mechanism in cyberattacks, but they have not considered whether the model itself has disturbance and impact on cyberattack defenses. In other words, it is still being determined whether the car-following model designed can be fully applicable to such cyberattacks. To provide a theoretical basis for vehicular layer modeling, it is necessary to comprehend the self-resistance of different car-following models faced on various cyberattacks. First, we review the car-following models adopted on the vehicular layer in cyberattacks, involving traffic engineering, physical statistics, and platoon dynamics. Based on the review, we divide the malicious attacks faced by the cyber layer into explicit attacks and implicit attacks. Second, we develop a cooperative generalized force model (CGFM), which combines and unifies the r-predecessors following communication topology. The proposed models, labeled the vulnerable cooperative intelligent driver model (VCIDM), the vulnerable cooperative optimal velocity model (VCOVM), and the vulnerable cooperative platoon dynamics model (VCPDM), incorporate the CGFM model and assorted cyberattack injection modes to explain the cyberattack effects on the platoon self-resistance capability. Upon the described models, we provide six indicators in three dimensions from the basic traffic element, including drivers, vehicles, and environment. These indicators illustrate driver tolerance, vehicle adaptability, and environmental resistance when a platoon faces attacks such as bogus information, replay/delay, and communication interruption. We arrange and reorganize the car-following models and the cyberattack injection modes to complete the research on the self-resistance capability of the platoon, which has positive research value and practical significance for enhancing the endogenous security at the vehicular layer and improving the intrusion tolerability at the cyber layer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have well-documented effects in reducing hospitalization or cardiovascular mortality, while the association of SGLT2 inhibitor dapagliflozin (DAPA) and the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients has not been comprehensively investigated. Therefore, we aimed to assess the association between DAPA and AKI risk in AMI patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) therapy. METHODS Using the Changzhou Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry database, we retrospectively included AMI patients from January 2017 to August 2021 and analyzed the risk of AKI and all-cause mortality after PCI therapy. The patients were divided into two groups according to the use of DAPA (DAPA group and Ctrl group). Patients in the DAPA group started to use DAPA after admission and continued its use during hospitalization and follow-up period. Baseline characteristics were balanced between the two groups with a propensity score matching (PSM) analysis. The outcome was AKI within 7 days after PCI and all-cause mortality during a follow-up of 2 years. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to assess the association between DAPA and AKI risk. RESULTS A total of 1839 AMI patients undergoing PCI were enrolled. DAPA was used in 278 (15.1%) patients. Postoperative AKI occurred in 351 (19.1%) cases. A 1:1 PSM analysis was used to reduce confounding factors. The multivariate stepwise regression analysis showed that DAPA (odds ratio, OR 0.66; 95% confidence interval, CI 0.44-0.97; P = 0.036) was an independent protective factor in the entire cohort. After matching, the use of DAPA in AMI patients was independently associated with a decline of AKI risk (OR 0.32; 95% CI, 0.19-0.53; P < 0.001) after hospital admission. Meanwhile, there were significant differences in mortality between the DAPA group and Ctrl group (2.5% vs. 7.6%, P = 0.012). CONCLUSION SGLT2 inhibitor DAPA was associated with lower risks of incident AKI and all-cause mortality in AMI patients after PCI therapy.

Abstract
AIM To compare the efficacy of quantitative contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) analysis and colour Doppler ultrasound (CDU) in evaluating central retinal artery (CRA) microcirculation in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). MATERIALS AND METHODS In this prospective study, a total of 55 patients (98 eyes) with DM were enrolled as the study group. They were compared to 46 age-matched healthy volunteers (92 eyes) who were selected as the control group. Each patient underwent CDU and subsequent CEUS examination. CDU and quantitative CEUS parameters were evaluated. The diagnostic efficiency of the diagnostic performance of CEUS and CDU was evaluated and compared, and the scale thresholds of predictive indicators for the diagnosis of proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) were evaluated using receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve analyses. RESULTS Group pairwise comparisons showed that the end diastolic velocity (EDV) and arrival time (AT) of CRA were significant predictors for PDR by CDU and by quantitative CEUS analysis, respectively (all p<0.05). The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve value of AT was significantly higher than that of EDV (0.875 versus 0.634, p=0.0002). Accordingly, an AT cut-off value of 1.07 seconds resulted a sensitivity of 90.62 % and a specificity of 79.31 %. CONCLUSION Quantitative CEUS analysis can improve the accuracy of clinical staging of diabetic retinopathy for the patients with DM, and the AT showed the best diagnostic efficiency.

Abstract
High blood pressure is a serious human health problem and one of the leading risk factors for fatal complications in cardiovascular disease. The ZXT granules were prepared based on the Zhengan-Xifeng-Tang (ZXT) decoction. However, the therapeutic effects of ZXT granules on spontaneous hypertension and the metabolic pathways in which they may intervene are unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the antihypertensive effect of ZXT granules on spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and to analyze the metabolic pathway of intervention through chemical composition characterization, pharmacodynamics, and serum metabolomics analysis. After eight weeks of administration, serum and aortic arch samples were collected for biochemical, histopathology and serum metabolomics analysis to assess the effect of ZXT granules on SHR. The results showed that ZXT granules reduced aortic arch injury and blood pressure in SHR rats. Serum data from rats in each group was collected using LC-MS and 74 potential biomarkers were identified that showed significant differences between the model and control groups. Of these, 18 potential biomarkers were found to be deregulated after intervention with ZXT granules. These 18 potential differential metabolic markers are primarily involved in bile acid biosynthesis, arachidonic acid metabolism pathway, and fatty acid degradation. The results demonstrated that ZXT granules significantly affected blood lipids, aortic arch, and metabolic disorders in SHR rats. ZXT granules offer a new possibility for effective and convenient treatment of hypertensive patients.

Abstract
As neurosurgery has advanced technologically, more and more neurosurgical implants are being employed on an aging patient population with several comorbidities. As a result, there is a steady increase in the frequency of infections linked to neurosurgical implants, which causes serious morbidity and mortality as well as abnormalities of the skull and inadequate brain protection. We discuss infections linked to internal and external ventricular and lumbar cerebrospinal fluid drainages, neurostimulators, craniotomies, and cranioplasty in this article. Biofilms, which are challenging to remove, are involved in all implant-associated illnesses. It takes a small quantity of microorganisms to create a biofilm on the implant surface. Skin flora bacteria are implicated in the majority of illnesses. Microorganisms that cause disruptions in wound healing make their way to the implant either during or right after surgery. In about two thirds of patients, implant-associated infections manifest early (within the first month after surgery), whereas the remaining infections present later as a result of low-grade infections or by direct extension from adjacent infections (per continuitatem) to the implants due to soft tissue damage. Except for ventriculo-atrial cerebrospinal fluid shunts, neurosurgical implants are rarely infected by the haematogenous route. This research examines established and clinically validated principles that are applicable to a range of surgical specialties using implants to treat biofilm-associated infections in orthopaedic and trauma cases. Nevertheless, there is little evidence and no evaluation in sizable patient populations to support the success of this extrapolation to neurosurgical patients. An optimal microbiological diagnostic, which includes sonicating removed implants and extending culture incubation times, is necessary for a positive result. Additionally, a strategy combining surgical and antibiotic therapy is needed. Surgical procedures involve a suitable debridement along with implant replacement or exchange, contingent on the biofilm's age and the state of the soft tissue. A protracted biofilm-active therapy is a component of antimicrobial treatment, usually lasting 4-12 weeks. This idea is appealing because it allows implants to be changed or kept in place for a single surgical procedure in a subset of patients. This not only enhances quality of life but also lowers morbidity because each additional neurosurgical procedure increases the risk of secondary complications like intracerebral bleeding or ischemia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Aim to establish a multimodal model for predicting severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) using machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL). METHODS In this multicentre retrospective study, patients diagnosed with acute pancreatitis at admission were enrolled from January 2017 to December 2021. Clinical information within 24 h and CT scans within 72 h of admission were collected. First, we trained Model α based on clinical features selected by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator analysis. Second, radiomics features were extracted from 3D-CT scans and Model β was developed on the features after dimensionality reduction using principal component analysis. Third, Model γ was trained on 2D-CT images. Lastly, a multimodal model, namely PrismSAP, was constructed based on aforementioned features in the training set. The predictive accuracy of PrismSAP was verified in the validation and internal test sets and further validated in the external test set. Model performance was evaluated using area under the curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, recall, precision and F1-score. RESULTS A total of 1,221 eligible patients were randomly split into a training set (n = 864), a validation set (n = 209) and an internal test set (n = 148). Data of 266 patients were for external testing. In the external test set, PrismSAP performed best with the highest AUC of 0.916 (0.873-0.960) among all models [Model α: 0.709 (0.618-0.800); Model β: 0.749 (0.675-0.824); Model γ: 0.687 (0.592-0.782); MCTSI: 0.778 (0.698-0.857); RANSON: 0.642 (0.559-0.725); BISAP: 0.751 (0.668-0.833); SABP: 0.710 (0.621-0.798)]. CONCLUSION The proposed multimodal model outperformed any single-modality models and traditional scoring systems.

Abstract
Herpes zoster (HZ) refers to the rash appearing on dermatomes due to varicella zoster virus (VZV) reactivation. The incidence of HZ is significantly higher in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) recipients than in non-HSCT recipients. Although acyclovir prophylaxis is routinely administered to every allo-HSCT recipient for 1 year after transplantation, some individuals eventually develop late-onset HZ after completing prophylaxis. Little information is known about the clinical features of HZ after prophylactic antiviral treatment discontinuation, and an effective predictive model of late-onset HZ needs to be established. A total of 3366 patients who had received allo-HSCT from 2012 to 2017 were included in our study, among whom 201 developed HZ after 1 year (late-onset HZ). We designed a nested case-control study to identify potential predictors of late-onset HZ. Finally, we established a predictive model using binary logistic regression analysis. Age (p < .001), use of immunosuppressants at +1 year (p < .001), CD4-CD8 ratio at +1 year (p < .001), certain mental disorders (depression, anxiety, insomnia and adjustment disorder) (p < .001), engraftment time of neutrophils (p < .001), and CD8+ cell count at +30 days (p < .001) were independent predictors of late-onset HZ. A risk grading system was established based on regression coefficients. Discrimination and calibration analysis indicated that the model had good performance. We also identified several predictive factors of the incidence of HZ-related complications. This is the first scoring system for predicting the incidence of late-onset HZ after allo-HSCT. This model can be applied to identify individuals at high risk of late-onset HZ in the early period after receiving allo-HSCT.

Abstract
Deciphering the neuronal response to injury in the spinal cord is essential for exploring treatment strategies for spinal cord injury (SCI). However, this subject has been neglected in part because appropriate tools are lacking. Emerging in vivo imaging and labeling methods offer great potential for observing dynamic neural processes in the central nervous system in conditions of health and disease. This review first discusses in vivo imaging of the mouse spinal cord with a focus on the latest imaging techniques, and then analyzes the dynamic biological response of spinal cord sensory and motor neurons to SCI. We then summarize and compare the techniques behind these studies and clarify the advantages of in vivo imaging compared with traditional neuroscience examinations. Finally, we identify the challenges and possible solutions for spinal cord neuron imaging.

Abstract
Microplastics (MPs) have attracted widespread worldwide attention as a new pollutant. However, the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cell cycle in nephrotoxicity induced by different concentrations of polystyrene microplastics (PS-MPs) is unknown. This study used grass carp kidney cells (CIK) treated with different concentrations of PS-MPs (0, 0.012, 0.0625, and 0.5 mg L-1 ) as subjects. With the increase of PS-MPs concentration, the levels of ROS and malonaldehyde increased, while the level of total antioxidant capacity, superoxide Dismutase (SOD), and glutathione (GSH) activity decreased. The expression of BUB1 mitotic checkpoint serine/threonine kinase (BUB1), cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK1), CDK2, CyclinB1, cell division cycle 20 homolog (CDC20), and B-cell lymphoma-2, sequestosome 1 decreased significantly. Nevertheless, the expression of Caspase 3, Cleave-Caspase 3, cytochrome c (Cytc), BCL2-associated X, apoptosis regulator, poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP), Cleave-PARP, Caspase 9, autophagy immunoblot kit (LC3), and Beclin1 increased. Our research shows that PS-MPs can trigger oxidative stress and induce cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and autophagy in CIK cells by regulating ROS. This work provides a theoretical basis for cellular biology and toxicology mechanisms and new insights into the potential risks to animals from MPs exposure in the environment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression is a common and recurrent neuropsychiatric disorder. Recent studies have shown that the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor (NMDAR) is involved in the pathophysiology of depression. Previous studies have found that Kaji-ichigoside F1 (KF1) has a protective effect against NMDA-induced neurotoxicity. However, the antidepressant mechanism of KF1 has not been confirmed yet. PURPOSE In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the rapid antidepressant activity of KF1 and explore the underlying mechanism. STUDY DESIGN First, we explored the effect of KF1 on NMDA-induced hippocampal neurons and the underlying mechanism. Second, depression was induced in C57BL/6 mice via chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS), and the immediate and persistent depression-like behavior was evaluated using the forced swimming test (FST) after a single administration of KF1. Third, the contributions of NMDA signaling to the antidepressant effect of KF1 were investigated using pharmacological interventions. Fourth, CUMS mice were treated with KF1 for 21 days, and then their depression-like behaviors and the underlying mechanism were further explored. METHODS The FST was used to evaluate immediate and persistent depression-like behavior after a single administration of KF1 with or without NMDA pretreatment. The effect of KF1 on depressive-like behavior was investigated in CUMS mice by treating them with KF1 once daily for 21 days through the sucrose preference test, FST, open field test, and tail suspension test. Then, the effects of KF1 on the morphology and molecular and functional phenotypes of primary neuronal cells and hippocampus of mice were investigated by hematoxylin-eosin staining, Nissl staining, propidium iodide staining, TUNEL staining, Ca2+ imaging, JC-1 staining, ELISA, immunofluorescence analysis, RT-PCR, and Western blot. RESULTS KF1 could effectively improve cellular viability, reduce apoptosis, inhibit the release of LDH and Ca2+, and increase the mitochondrial membrane potential and the number of dendritic spines numbers in hippocampal neurons. Moreover, behavioral tests showed that KF1 exerted acute and sustained antidepressant-like effects by reducing Glu-levels and ameliorating neuronal damage in the hippocampus. Additionally, in vivo and in vitro experiments revealed that PSD95, Syn1, α-amino-3‑hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA), and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) were upregulated at the protein level, and BDNF and AMPA were upregulated at the mRNA level. NR1 and NR2A showed the opposite trend. CONCLUSION These results confirm that KF1 exerts rapid antidepressant effects mainly by activating the AMPA-BDNF-mTOR pathway and inhibiting the NMDAR-CaMKIIα pathway. This study serves as a new reference for discovering rapid antidepressants.

Abstract
We aimed to describe the clinical characteristics, particularly the occurrence and risk factors of severe/critical illness, in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell (allo-HSCT) recipients infected with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by Omicron variant in an observational prospective study (n = 311). The median time from allo-HSCT to COVID-19 diagnosis was 8.5 months (range 0.8-106.1) months. Four patients (1.3%) were reported to be asymptomatic during Omicron variant infection, and 135 (43.4%) patients showed lower respiratory tract disease. Thirty-four (10.9%) patients were categorized into serious infection (severe illness n = 25; critical illness n = 9) and the median duration from COVID-19 diagnosis to serious infections was 6 days (range, 0-29) days. Thirteen (4.2%) and 6 (1.9%) patients required intensive care unit care and invasive mechanical ventilation, respectively. Receiving more than 1 type of immunosuppressive therapies at COVID-19 diagnosis was associated with severity and persistence of infection. Six patients (1.9%) died after diagnosis of COVID-19 infection. The 4-week probability of overall survival after COVID-19 diagnosis was 98.7%, which was 100% and 88.2% for non-serious and serious infection group (P < 0.001), respectively. Thus, we observed a relatively low serious infection and mortality rate in allo-HSCT recipients infected with COVID-19 caused by Omicron variant.

Abstract
Pralsetinib has demonstrated efficacious activity in various solid tumors, including medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), as observed in the phase 1/2 global ARROW study (BLU-667-1101; NCT03037385). We evaluated the safety and efficacy of pralsetinib in Chinese patients with advanced RET-mutant MTC. In the extension cohort of ARROW, adult patients with advanced MTC, who had not received systemic therapy (except for cytotoxic chemotherapy), were treated with pralsetinib (400 mg once daily, orally). The primary endpoints were blinded independent central-reviewed (BICR) objective response rate (ORR) and safety. Between October 9, 2019, and April 29, 2020, 34 patients were enrolled at 12 centers across China. Among them, 28 patients tested positive for RET mutations in the central laboratory, and 26 of these, with measurable disease at baseline per BICR, were included in the analysis set for tumor response. As of April 12, 2021 (data cutoff), the ORR was 73.1% (95% CI: 52.2-88.4), and the median duration of response was not reached. The most common (≥15%) grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) in the 28 patients with RET-mutant MTC were neutrophil count decreased (8/28, 28.6%), blood creatine phosphokinase increased (6/28, 21.4%), and lymphocyte count decreased (5/28, 17.9%). Serious TRAEs were reported by six patients (21.4%), with the most common event being pneumonia (3/28, 10.7%). No patient discontinued treatment or died from pralsetinib-related adverse events. Pralsetinib demonstrated broad, deep, and durable efficacy, as well as a manageable and acceptable safety profile in Chinese patients with advanced RET-mutant MTC.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the multiscale structure, physicochemical properties, and in vitro digestibility of black rice starch (BRS) and gallic acid (GA) complexes prepared using varying ultrasound powers. The findings revealed that ultrasonic treatment disrupted BRS granules while enhancing the composite degree with GA. The starch granules enlarged and aggregated into complexes with uneven surfaces. Moreover, the crystallinity of the BRS-GA complexes increased to 22.73 % and formed V6-I-type complexes through non-covalent bonds. The increased short-range ordering of the complexes and nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen (1H NMR) further indicated that the BRS and GA molecules interacted mainly through non-covalent bonds such as hydrogen bonds. Additionally, ultrasound reduced the viscoelasticity of the complexes while minimizing the mass loss of the complexes at the same temperature. In vitro digestion results demonstrated an increase in resistant starch content up to 37.60 % for the BRS-GA complexes. Therefore, ultrasound contributes to the formation of V-typed complexes of BRS and GA, which proves the feasibility of using ultrasound alone for the preparation of starch and polyphenol complexes while providing a basis for the multiscale structure and digestibility of polyphenol and starch complexes.

Abstract
Nirmatrelvir/ritonavir (N/r) has received emergency use authorization for mild-to-moderate COVID-19 treatment in adult and pediatric patients (aged and weighing at least 12 years and 40 kg, respectively) presenting positive direct SARS-CoV-2 viral testing results and a high risk of disease progression to severe COVID-19. However, information remains limited concerning the corresponding drug safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics in patients with severe renal impairment. In this study, we present the case of a 91-year-old Chinese man who, despite exhibiting recurrent positive SARS-CoV-2 results and progression to severe COVID-19, was treated with N/r. Due to severe renal impairment and concurrent administration of continuous renal replacement therapy (continuous venovenous hemofiltration) during medication, we aimed to determine the serum N/r drug concentration in the patient. Our analysis revealed Cmax values of 12.42 and 2.001 μg/mL for nirmatrelvir and ritonavir, respectively. Despite the particularly high serum N/r concentration in this patient, the clinical and laboratory test analyses confirmed that the treatment was safe and effective. Nevertheless, N/r should be used with caution and at lower doses in patients with severe renal impairment to avoid potential high N/r concentration-related adverse reactions and events.

Abstract
Background and Aims China accounts for 14.9% of total cirrhosis deaths worldwide. A detailed and comprehensive understanding of the contemporary status of cirrhosis mortality in China is crucial for establishing strategies for intervention and decreasing the disease burden of cirrhosis worldwide. The study aimed to report the cirrhosis mortality rates in our whole country or province over time. Methods Mortality data from 2008 to 2020 were retrieved from the Disease Surveillance Point System (DSPs) of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The crude mortality rate and age-standardized mortality rate of patients with cirrhosis were stratified by sex, residential location, and region. The average annual percentage change (AAPC) in cirrhosis mortality rates from 2008 to 2020 was also calculated. Results The crude mortality rate of cirrhosis was 4.57/100,000 people in 2020. Compared with females and individuals living in urban areas, males and people living in rural areas had greater age-standardized mortality. The crude mortality rate and age-standardized mortality rate in provinces in Southwest China (Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Qinghai) were greater than those in other provinces. Moreover, with increasing age, the age-specific mortality rate increased significantly. From 2008 to 2020, the mortality rate of cirrhosis in China decreased except for in males aged 50-59 years, females aged 45-49 years and females aged 80-84 years. Conclusions The mortality rate of patients with cirrhosis in China decreased from 2008 to 2020. In the future, interventions of cirrhosis mortality control need to pay more attention to all males, females aged 45-49 and 80-84 years, and people living in rural areas and in provinces in Southwest China.

Abstract
Trimethoprim (TMP), functioning as a synergistic antibacterial agent, is utilized in diagnosing and treating diseases affecting livestock and poultry. Human consumption of the medication indirectly may lead to its drug accumulation in the body and increase drug resistance due to its prolonged metabolic duration in livestock and poultry, presenting significant health hazards. Most reported immunoassay techniques, such as ELISA and immunochromatographic assay (ICA), find it challenging to achieve the dual advantages of high sensitivity, simplicity of operation, and a wide detection range. Consequently, an open droplet microchannel-based magnetosensor for immunofluorometric assay (OMM-IFA) of trimethoprim was created, featuring a gel imager to provide a signal output derived from the highly specific antibody (Ab) targeting trimethoprim. The method exhibited high sensitivity in chicken and pork samples, with LODs of 0.300 and 0.017 ng/mL, respectively, and a wide linear range, covering trimethoprim's total maximum residue limits (MRLs). Additionally, the spiked recoveries in chicken and pork specimens varied between 81.6% and 107.9%, maintaining an acceptable variation coefficient below 15%, aligning well with the findings from the ultraperformance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) technique. The developed method achieved a much wider linear range of about 5 orders of magnitude of 10-2-103 levels with grayscale signals as the output signal, which exhibited high sensitivity, excellent applicability and simple operability based on magnetic automation.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the mid-term efficacy of ABO incompatible living donor kidney transplantation (ABOi-KT) based on the results of routine renal biopsy for transplantation. Methods: Retrospective collection of clinical data from 23 pairs of ABOi-KT donors and recipients at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from July 2015 to November 2021. ABOi-KT was performed on recipients after desensitization treatment, and the results of routine kidney transplant biopsy at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after surgery were analyzed. Combined with blood type antibody levels and renal function recovery, the mid-term efficacy of ABOi-KT was evaluated. Results: Among the 23 recipients, there were 19 males and 4 females; age range from 19 to 47 years old [(29.6±6.7) years old], all underwent ABOi-KT successfully after receiving desensitization treatment. The follow-up time was (44.6±22.4) months, of which 22 cases were followed up for more than 1 year. The incidence rates of rejection reactions at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after surgery were 15.0% (3/20), 11.1% (1/9), 7.7% (1/13), 25.0% (3/12), and 12.5% (1/8), respectively. For receptors with rejection reactions, targeted anti-rejection therapy was performed based on clinical symptoms and various indicators. Borderline T cell mediated rejection (TCMR) can be converted to mild tubular inflammation after anti-rejection treatment. The positive rate of complement C4d in peritubular capillaries was 95.0% (19/20) one week after surgery, and the positive rate of complement C4d was 100% at 3 and 12 months after surgery. The cumulative survival rates at 1, 3, 5, and 7 years after surgery were all 100%. The cumulative survival rates at 1, 3, 5, and 7 years after kidney transplantation were 100%, 93.3%, 84.0%, and 84.0%, respectively. Except for 2 recipients who underwent transplantation in 2017 and experienced kidney failure at 30 and 49 months after surgery, all other transplanted kidneys survived. Conclusions: The results of routine renal transplant biopsy show that ABOi-KT has a good mid-term therapeutic effect. The pathological changes of ABOi-KT can be dynamically observed through routine renal transplant biopsy and targeted treatment for rejection reactions can be provided accordingly.

Abstract
As an effective ECL emitter, tetraphenylethene (TPE)-based molecules have recently been reported with aggregation-induced electrochemiluminescence (AIECL) property, while it is still a big challenge to control its aggregation states and obtain uniform aggregates with intense ECL emission. In this study, we develop three TPE derivatives carrying a pyridinium group, an alkyl chain, and a quaternary ammonium group via the Menschutkin reaction. The resulting molecules exhibit significantly red-shifted FL and enhanced ECL emissions due to the tunable reduction of the energy gap between the highest occupied molecular orbitals (HOMOs) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (LUMOs). More importantly, the amphiphilicity of the as-developed molecules enables their spontaneous self-assembly into well-controlled spherical nanoaggregates, and the ECL intensity of nanoaggregates with 3 -CH2- (named as C3) is 17.0-fold higher compared to that of the original 4-(4-(1,2,2-triphenylvinyl)phenyl)pyridine (TPP) molecule. These cationic nanoaggregates demonstrate a high affinity toward bacteria, and an ECL sensor for the profiling of Escherichia coli (E. coli) was developed with a broad linear range and good selectivity in the presence of an E. coli-specific aptamer. This study provides an effective way to enhance the ECL emission of TPE molecules through their derivatization and a simple way to prepare well-controlled AIECL nanoaggregates for ECL application.

Abstract
Point-of-care monitoring of small molecules in biofluids is crucial for clinical diagnosis and treatment. However, the inherent low degree of recognition of small molecules and the complex composition of biofluids present significant obstacles for current detection technologies. Although nanopore sensing excels in the analysis of small molecules, the direct detection of small molecules in complex biofluids remains a challenge. In this study, we present a method for sensing the small molecule drug gentamicin in whole blood based on the mechanosensitive channel of small conductance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PaMscS) nanopore. PaMscS can directly detect gentamicin and distinguish its main components with only a monomethyl difference. The 'molecular sieve' structure of PaMscS enables the direct measurement of gentamicin in human whole blood within 10 min. Furthermore, a continuous monitoring device constructed based on PaMscS achieved continuous monitoring of gentamicin in live rats for approximately 2.5 h without blood consumption, while the drug components can be analyzed in situ. This approach enables rapid and convenient drug monitoring with single-molecule level resolution, which can significantly lower the threshold for drug concentration monitoring and promote more efficient drug use. Moreover, this work also lays the foundation for the future development of continuous monitoring technology with single-molecule level resolution in the living body.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the role of minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring during early induction therapy for the treatment of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Methods: This was a multicenter retrospective cohort study. Clinical data of 1 164 ALL patients first diagnosed between October 2016 and June 2019 was collected from 16 hospitals in South China Children's Leukemia Group. According to MRD assay on day 15 of early induction therapy, they were divided into MRD<0.10% group, MRD 0.10%-<10.00% group and MRD≥10.00% group. According to MRD assay on day 33, they were divided into MRD<0.01% group, MRD 0.01%-<1.00% group and MRD≥1.00% group. Age, onset white blood cell count, central nervous system leukemia (CNSL), molecular genetic characteristics and other data were compared between groups. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis. Cox regression model was used to analyze prognostic factors. Results: Of the 1 164 enrolled patients, there were 692 males and 472 females. The age of diagnosis was 4.7 (0.5, 17.4) years. The white blood cell count at initial diagnosis was 10.7 (0.4, 1 409.0) ×109/L. Among all patients, 53 cases (4.6%) had CNSL. The follow-up time was 47.6 (0.5, 68.8) months. The 5-year overall survival (OS) and 5-year relapse-free survival (RFS) rates were (93.1±0.8) % and (90.3±1.1) %. On day 15 of early induction therapy, there were 466 cases in the MRD<0.10% group, 523 cases in the MRD 0.10%-<10.00% group and 175 cases in the MRD≥10.00% group. The 5-year OS rates of the MRD<0.10% group, MRD 0.10%-<10.00% group and MRD≥10.00% group were (95.4±1.0) %, (93.3±1.1) %, (85.4±2.9) %, respectively, while the RFS rates were (93.2±1.6) %, (90.8±1.4) %, (78.9±4.3) %, respectively (χ2=16.47, 21.06, both P<0.05). On day 33 of early induction therapy, there were 925 cases in the MRD <0.01% group, 164 cases in the MRD 0.01%-<1.00% group and 59 cases in the MRD≥1.00% group. The 5-year RFS rates in the MRD 0.01%-<1.00% group was lowest among three groups ((91.4±1.2) % vs. (84.5±3.2) % vs. (87.9±5.1) %). The difference between three groups is statistically significant (χ2=9.11, P=0.010). Among ALL patients with MRD≥10.00% on day 15 of induction therapy, there were 80 cases in the MRD <0.01% group on day 33, 45 cases in the MRD 0.01%-<1.00% group on day 33 and 45 cases in the MRD≥1.00% group on day 33. The 5-year RFS rates of three groups were (83.9±6.0)%, (67.1±8.2)%, (83.3±6.9)% respectively (χ2=6.90, P=0.032). Univariate analysis was performed in the MRD≥10.00% group on day 15 and the MRD 0.01%-<1.00% group on day 33.The 5-year RFS rate of children with CNSL was significantly lower than that without CNSL in the MRD≥10.00% group on day 15 ((50.0±20.4)% vs. (80.3±4.4)%,χ2=4.13,P=0.042). Patients with CNSL or MLL gene rearrangement in the MRD 0.01%-<1.00% group on day 33 had significant lower 5-year RFS rate compared to those without CNSL or MLL gene rearrangement ((50.0±25.0)% vs. (85.5±3.1)%,χ2=4.06,P=0.044;(58.3±18.6)% vs. (85.7±3.2)%,χ2=9.44,P=0.002). Multivariate analysis showed that age (OR=0.58, 95%CI 0.35-0.97) and white blood cell count at first diagnosis (OR=0.43, 95%CI 0.27-0.70) were independent risk factors for OS. The MRD level on day 15 (OR=0.55,95%CI 0.31-0.97), ETV6-RUNX1 fusion gene (OR=0.13,95%CI 0.03-0.54), MLL gene rearrangement (OR=2.55,95%CI 1.18-5.53) and white blood cell count at initial diagnosis (OR=0.52,95%CI 0.33-0.81) were independent prognostic factors for RFS. Conclusions: The higher the level of MRD in early induction therapy, the worse the OS. The MRD levels on day 15 is an independent prognostic factor for RFS.The MRD in early induction therapy guided accurate risk stratification and individualized treatment can improve the survival rate of pediatric ALL.

Abstract
Phosphorus (P) loss caused by the irrational use of manure organic fertilizer has become a worldwide environmental problem, which has caused a potential threat to water safety and intensified agricultural non-point source pollution. Hydrothermal carbonization is method with a low-energy consumption and high efficiency to deal with environmental problems. Application of pig manure-derived hydrochar (PMH) to soil exhibited potential of sustainable development compared with the pristine pig manure (PM). However, the effects of PMH on the distribution of P among the fractions/forms and the interaction between microorganisms and P forms and its relevance to the potential loss of P in paddy fields has not been clarified. Therefore, in this study, a soil column experiment was conducted using the untreated soil (control), and the PM, PMH1 (PMH derived at 180 °C), and PMH2 (PMH derived at 260 °C) treated soils (at the dose of 0.05 %) and rice was cultivated to investigate the effects of PM and PMH on the P fractions, mobilization, ad potential loss via the induced changes on soil microbial community after a complete growing season of rice. The trend of P utilization was evaluated by P speciation via continuous extraction and 31P NMR. The addition of PMH reduced the proportion of residual P in soil by 23.8-26.3 %, and increased the proportion of HCl-P and orthophosphate by 116.2-158.6 % and 6.1-6.8 % compared to PM. The abundance of gcd gene developed after the application of PMH2, which enhanced the mobile forms of soil P utilization via secreting gluconic acid. The network diagram analysis concluded that the changes in various P forms were mainly related to Proteobacteria, Bacteroides, Firmicutes and Acidobacteria. The results illustrated that PMH mitigate the potential risk of P loss more than PM by altering P fractions and affecting soil microbial community.

Abstract
This study was designed to elucidate the colon microbiota-targeted release of nonextractable bound polyphenols (NEPs) derived from Fu brick tea and to further identify the possible anti-inflammatory mechanism in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced ulcerative colitis (UC) mice. 1.5% DSS drinking water-induced C57BL/6J mice were fed rodent chow supplemented with or without 8% NEPs or dietary fibers (DFs) for 37 days. The bound p-hydroxybenzoic acid and quercetin in NEPs were liberated up to 590.5 ± 70.6 and 470.5 ± 51.6 mg/g by in vitro human gut microbiota-simulated fermentation, and released into the colon of the mice supplemented with NEPs by 4.4- and 1.5-fold higher than that of the mice supplemented without NEPs, respectively (p < 0.05). Supplementation with NEPs also enhanced the colonic microbiota-dependent production of SCFAs in vitro and in vivo (p < 0.05). Interestingly, Ingestion of NEPs in DSS-induced mice altered the gut microbiota composition, reflected by a dramatic increase in the relative abundance of Dubosiella and Enterorhabdus and a decrease in the relative abundance of Alistipes and Romboutsia (p < 0.05). Consumption of NEPs was demonstrated to be more effective in alleviating colonic inflammation and UC symptoms than DFs alone in DSS-treated mice (p < 0.05), in which the protective effects of NEPs against UC were highly correlated with the reconstruction of the gut microbiome, formation of SCFAs, and release of bound polyphenols. These findings suggest that NEPs as macromolecular carriers exhibit targeted delivery of bound polyphenols into the mouse colon to regulate gut microbiota and alleviate inflammation.

Abstract
Pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma (PGPG) is a rare neuroendocrine tumor. Amino acid metabolism is crucial for energy production, redox balance, and metabolic pathways in tumor cell proliferation. This study aimed to build a risk model using amino acid metabolism-related genes, enhancing PGPG diagnosis and treatment decisions. We analyzed RNA-sequencing data from the PCPG cohort in the GEO dataset as our training set and validated our findings using the TCGA dataset and an additional clinical cohort. WGCNA and LASSO were utilized to identify hub genes and develop risk prediction models. The single-sample gene set enrichment analysis, MCPCOUNTER, and ESTIMATE algorithm calculated the relationship between amino acid metabolism and immune cell infiltration in PCPG. The TIDE algorithm predicted the immunotherapy efficacy for PCPG patients. The analysis identified 292 genes with differential expression, which are involved in amino acid metabolism and immune pathways. Six genes (DDC, SYT11, GCLM, PSMB7, TYRO3, AGMAT) were identified as crucial for the risk prediction model. Patients with a high-risk profile demonstrated reduced immune infiltration but potentially higher benefits from immunotherapy. Notably, DDC and SYT11 showed strong diagnostic and prognostic potential. Validation through quantitative Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction and immunohistochemistry confirmed their differential expression, underscoring their significance in PCPG diagnosis and in predicting immunotherapy response. This study's integration of amino acid metabolism-related genes into a risk prediction model offers critical clinical insights for PCPG risk stratification, potential immunotherapy responses, drug development, and treatment planning, marking a significant step forward in the management of this complex condition.

Abstract
Multiple enzyme-triggered cascade biocatalytic reactions are vital in vivo or vitro, considering the basic biofunction preservation in living organisms and signals transduction for biosensing platforms. Encapsulation of such enzymes into carrier endows a sheltering effect and can boost catalytic performance, although the selection and preparation of an appropriate carrier is still a concern. Herein, focusing on MAF-7, a category of metal azolate framework (MAF) with superiority against the topologically identical ZIF-8, this enzyme@MAF system can ameliorate the sustainability of encapsulating natural enzymes into carriers. The proposed biocatalyst composite AChE@ChOx@MAF-7/hemin is constructed via one-pot in situ coprecipitation method. Subsequently, MAF-7 is demonstrated to exhibit an excellent capacity of the carrier and protection against external factors in the counterpart of ZIF-8 through encapsulated and free enzymes. In addition, detections for specific substrates or inhibitors with favorable sensitivity are accomplished, indicating that the properties above expectation of different aspects of the established platform are successfully realized. This biofunctional composite based on MAF-7 can definitely provide a potential approach for optimization of cascade reaction and enzyme encapsulation.

Abstract
Predictive markers and prognostic models are useful for the individualization of cancer treatment. In this study, we sought to identify clinical and molecular factors to predict overall survival in recurrent glioma patients receiving bevacizumab-containing regimens. A cohort of 102 patients was retrospectively collected from June 2011 to January 2022 at our institution. A nomogram was generated by Cox regression and feature selection algorithms based on 19 clinicopathological and 60 molecular variables. The model's performance was internally evaluated by bootstrapping in terms of discrimination and calibration. The median overall survival from the initiation of bevacizumab administration to death or last follow-up was 11.6 months (95% CI: 9.2-13.8 months) for all 102 patients, 10.2 months (95% CI: 6.4-13.3 months) for 66 patients with grade 4 tumors, and 13.8 months (lower limit of 95% CI: 11.5 months) for 36 patients with tumors of grade lower or not available. In the final model, a lower WHO 2021 grade (Grade lower or not available vs. Grade 4, HR: 0.398, 95% CI: 0.223-0.708, p = 0.00172), having received adjuvant radiochemotherapy (Yes vs. No, HR: 0.488, 95% CI: 0.268-0.888, p = 0.0189), and wildtype EGFR (Wildtype vs. Altered, HR: 0.193, 95% CI: 0.0506-0.733, p = 0.0157; Not available vs. Altered, HR: 0.386, 95% CI: 0.184-0.810, p = 0.0118) were significantly associated with longer overall survival in multivariate Cox regression. The overall concordance index was 0.652 (95% CI: 0.566-0.714), and the areas under the time-dependent curves for 6-, 12-, and 18-month overall survival were 0.677 (95% CI: 0.516-0.816), 0.654 (95% CI: 0.470-0.823), and 0.675 (95% CI: 0.491-0.860), respectively. A prognostic model for overall survival in recurrent glioma patients treated with bevacizumab-based therapy was established and internally validated. It could serve as a reference tool for clinicians to assess the extent the patients may benefit from bevacizumab and stratify their treatment response.

Abstract
Multiview subspace clustering aims to discover the inherent structure of data by fusing multiple views of complementary information. Most existing methods first extract multiple types of handcrafted features and then learn a joint affinity matrix for clustering. The disadvantage of this approach lies in two aspects: 1) multiview relations are not embedded into feature learning and 2) the end-to-end learning manner of deep learning is not suitable for multiview clustering. Even when deep features have been extracted, it is a nontrivial problem to choose a proper backbone for clustering on different datasets. To address these issues, we propose the multiview deep subspace clustering networks (MvDSCNs), which learns a multiview self-representation matrix in an end-to-end manner. The MvDSCN consists of two subnetworks, i.e., a diversity network (Dnet) and a universality network (Unet). A latent space is built using deep convolutional autoencoders, and a self-representation matrix is learned in the latent space using a fully connected layer. Dnet learns view-specific self-representation matrices, whereas Unet learns a common self-representation matrix for all views. To exploit the complementarity of multiview representations, the Hilbert-Schmidt independence criterion (HSIC) is introduced as a diversity regularizer that captures the nonlinear, high-order interview relations. Because different views share the same label space, the self-representation matrices of each view are aligned to the common one by universality regularization. The MvDSCN also unifies multiple backbones to boost clustering performance and avoid the need for model selection. Experiments demonstrate the superiority of the MvDSCN.

Abstract
Ganoderma lucidum is a precious fungus, particularly valued for its dual use as both medicine and food. Ganoderic acids (GAs), the distinctive triterpenoids found in the Ganoderma genus, exhibit a wide range of pharmacological activities. However, the limited resources of GAs restrict their clinic usage and drug discovery. In this review, we presented a comprehensive summary focusing on the diverse structures and pharmacological activity of GAs in G. lucidum. Additionally, we discussed the latest advancements in the elucidation of GA biosynthesis, as well as the progress in heterosynthesis and liquid fermentation methods aimed at further increasing GA production. Furthermore, we summarized the omics data, genetic transformation system, and cultivation techniques of G. lucidum, described as medicinal model fungi. The understanding of Ganoderic acids chemodiversity and biosynthesis in medicinal model fungi Ganoderma lucidum will provide important insights into the exploration and utilization of natural products in medicinal fungi.
