Abstract
Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI), initially proposed by Biswal et al. in 1995, has emerged as a pivotal facet of neuroimaging research. Its ability to examine brain activity during the resting state without the need for explicit tasks or stimuli has made it an integral component of brain imaging studies. In recent years, rs-fMRI has witnessed substantial growth and found widespread application in the investigation of functional connectivity within the brain. To delineate the developmental trajectory of rs-fMRI over the past two decades, we conducted a comprehensive analysis using bibliometric tool Citespace. Our analysis encompassed publication trends, authorship networks, institutional affiliations, international collaborations, as well as emergent themes in references and keywords. Our study reveals a remarkable increase in the volume of rs-fMRI publications over the past two decades, underscoring the burgeoning interest and potential within this field. Harvard University stands out as the institution with the highest number of research papers published in the realm of RS-fMRI, while the United States holds the highest overall influence in this domain. The recent emergence of keywords such as "machine learning" and "default mode," coupled with citation surges in reference to rs-fMRI, have paved new avenues for research within this field. Our study underscores the critical importance of integrating machine learning techniques into rs-fMRI investigations, offering valuable insights into brain function and disease diagnosis. These findings hold profound significance for the field of neuroscience and may furnish insights for future research employing rs-fMRI as a diagnostic tool for a wide array of neurological disorders, thus emphasizing its pivotal role and potential as a tool for investigating brain functionality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, university students have been exposed to a heightened vulnerability towards developing psychological issues, such as psychological distress and shyness. Internet-based interventions offer a convenient avenue for scalability, thus prompting the development of a smartphone-based hypnotic intervention aimed at addressing shyness among university students. OBJECTIVE We devised an innovative smartphone-based hypnotic intervention called mHypnosis to examine its impact on shyness among undergraduate students. Furthermore, we aimed to investigate whether the apprehension of negative evaluations before treatment could serve as a predictor for the effectiveness of the intervention on shyness. METHODS Eighty students with high shyness scores were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group. Another 40 participants with low shyness score were selected as the baseline group. The Shyness Scale (SS), Fear of Negative evaluation scale (FNE), Self-Acceptance Questionnaire (SAQ), and Self-Esteem Scale (SES) were used to evaluate the effect of hypnotic intervention. RESULTS Before the intervention, the scores of the experimental and control groups on the SS, FNE, SAQ, and SES were higher than those in the baseline group (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in scores between the experimental and control group (p > 0.05). After the intervention, the scores of the SS, FNE, SAQ, and SES were significantly lower in the experimental group than those in the control group (p < 0.05). The pretest score of FNE could predict the shyness score after hypnotic intervention (B = 0.35, p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Smartphone-based hypnotic intervention had a significant effect on ameliorating shyness during the COVID-19 pandemic; fear of negative evaluation can be a target for treating shyness.

Abstract
PURPOSE The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of adenovirus-mediated p16 and p53 on growth and apoptosis in ovarian cancer cells and on survival in nude mice implanted with human ovarian cancer cells. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN SKOV-3 ip1 (p53 and p16 null), 2774 (p53 and p16 mutant), and OVCA 420 (p53 and p16 wild-type) cells were used for in vitro studies. SKOV-3 ip1, 2774, and Hey A8 (p53 and p16 wild-type) cells were used in the nude mouse studies. The E1-deleted adenoviruses containing p53, p16, or beta-galactosidase cDNA were transfected into the different cell types or inoculated into the nude mice after injection with ovarian cancer cells. RESULTS Cell counting, microtetrazolium, and anchorage-independent growth assays on transfected cells demonstrated that p16 and the p16/p53 combination suppressed growth, whereas p53 did not (except in the anchorage-independent growth assay). Although cells infected with the p16/p53 combination had decreased growth compared with cells infected with either tumor suppressor alone, the difference was only statistically significant compared with p53. p16, p53, and the p16/p53 combination all increased apoptosis in the cells. In the nude mice, p16 treatment resulted in the longest survival for all three models, although it only reached statistical significance for the 2774 and SKOV-3 ip1 groups. CONCLUSIONS Overall, p16 demonstrated greater growth inhibition than p53 both in vivo and in vitro. The p16/p53 combination demonstrated a consistent trend toward increased growth suppression and apoptosis over p16 or p53 alone. Adenovirus-mediated p16 may be a viable future treatment for ovarian cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the possibility of subtotal laryngectomy in the treatment of advanced laryngeal cancer and selection of reconstruction. METHODS Forty patients were treated surgically by subtotal laryngectomy with preservation of arytenoid cartilage and perichondrium. The pedicled flaps between cricoid cartilage and arytenoid cartilage were sewed up. The new larynx was reconstructed by suturing the cricoid or trachea to the hyoid bone or the tongue base. RESULTS The 3 and 5 year survival rates were 85.0% and 76.2% respectively. Decannulation rate was 92.5%. CONCLUSION The reconstruction of laryngeal function in subtotal laryngectomy by pedicled flaps not only is safe and beneficial to the patients with the cancers above the cricoid, but also improves the quality of patient's life.

Abstract
Most patients relapse after high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) with autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT) for metastatic breast cancer. Further chemotherapy immediately after hematopoietic recovery from ASCT is not given for fear of irreversibly damaging the newly engrafted stem cells. In a pilot chemoprotection trial, autologous CD34+ cells from patients with metastatic breast cancer were exposed to a replication-incompetent retroviral vector carrying MDR-1 cDNA and then reinfused after HDCT. Immediately on recovery, patients received multiple courses of escalating dose paclitaxel. All of the 10 patients tolerated reinfusion of modified cells without any toxicity and had myeloid engraftment within 12 days (range, 11-14). The bone marrow cells of three patients contained vector MDR-1-positive cells only at the time of the first course of posttransplant paclitaxel, indicating that the MDR-1 vector-modified cells had only short-term engrafting potential. A total of 83 courses of paclitaxel were administered starting at a median of 30 (range, 21-32) days from ASCT. The median dose of paclitaxel was 225 mg/m2 and the median interval between paclitaxel cycles of therapy was 21 (range, 20-41) days. Five of the six CR patients were able to receive all of the 12 courses of paclitaxel. Three patients who had achieved less than a complete response to the HDCT (2 patients) and partial response (1 patient) were converted to complete clinical responses during the 12 cycles of paclitaxel. No delayed toxicity or bone marrow failure was noted in these patients with a median follow-up of 2 years from ASCT. This is the first study of chemotherapy immediately after transplantation with autologous CD34+ cells. These data indicate that paclitaxel can be safely administered immediately after ASCT without any delayed toxicities. Paclitaxel given immediately after ASCT can further improve the response to pretransplant chemotherapy in patients with advanced breast cancer.

Abstract
By using a mRNA differential display technique to search for salicylate suppressible genes, we identified a cDNA in human foreskin fibroblasts, which by GenBankTM DNA data base search shows sequence homology to the recently reported cullin/Cdc53 (CUL) family genes, especially CUL-3. We have cloned the full-length human CUL-3 (Hs-CUL-3) cDNA. It encodes a 768-amino acid polypeptide and has a predicted molecular weight of 88,939. The amino acid sequence of Hs-CUL-3 shows 46% homology to that of its Caenorhabditis elegans ortholog, Ce-CUL-3, and 27 and 23% to that of Hs-CUL-1 and Hs-CUL-2, respectively. Northern blot analysis showed that phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate increased the expression of Hs-CUL-3 mRNA in a concentration- and time-dependent manner, and this increase was inhibited by sodium salicylate. Hs-CUL-3 widely expressed in human tissues and its expression in cultured COLO205 colon cancer cells was increased when compared with that in normal colon cells. It is likely that Hs-CUL-3 is involved in cell proliferation control.

Abstract
To formally test the hypothesis that the granulocyte/macrophage colony-forming unit (GM-CFU) cells can contribute to early hematopoietic reconstitution immediately after transplant, the frequency of genetically modified GM-CFU after retroviral vector transduction was measured by a quantitative in situ polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which is specific for the multidrug resistance-1 (MDR-1) vector, and by a quantitative GM-CFU methylcellulose plating assay. The results of this analysis showed no difference between the transduction frequency in the products of two different transduction protocols: "suspension transduction" and "stromal growth factor transduction." However, when an analysis of the frequency of cells positive for the retroviral MDR-1 vector posttransplantation was carried out, 0 of 10 patients transplanted with cells transduced by the suspension method were positive for the vector MDR-1 posttransplant, whereas 5 of 8 patients transplanted with the cells transduced by the stromal growth factor method were positive for the MDR-1 vector transcription unit by in situ or in solution PCR assay (a difference that is significant at the P = 0.0065 level by the Fisher exact test). These data suggest that only very small subsets of the GM-CFU fraction of myeloid cells, if any, contribute to the repopulation of the hematopoietic tissues that occurs following intensive systemic therapy and transplantation of autologous hematopoietic cells.

Abstract
We used an animal model system to transplant lethally-irradiated mice with one million marrow cells which had been: (1) collected from 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) treated mice; and (2) transduced with retroviruses containing a multiple drug resistance-1 (MDR-1) gene transcription unit. Following recovery from the transplant, we exposed these mice to doses of taxol ranging from 7 mg/kg to 30 mg/kg, which corresponds to doses of 68 to 268 mg/m2 in man. The median white blood cell count by 5 days after taxol (expressed as the percentage of the white blood cell count before taxol) was 83% (range 46-100%) in 11 courses of taxol in mice transplanted once with MDR-1 transduced marrow immediately after transplant, whereas the median white blood cell count by 5 days after taxol in mice not transplanted with MDR-1 marrow was 41% in nine courses of taxol (range 11-66%). This difference is statistically different at the P < 0.001 level (Wilcoxon test). One million marrow cells from the MDR-1 transplanted mice were harvested and serially transplanted through five additional cohorts of mice, and tested with taxol after each cohort. The white blood cell count (expressed as the percentage of pre-taxol white blood cell count) after each cohort ranged from 94-146% in the 29 mice transplanted with the transduced MDR-1 marrow, which had been through more than one transplant. This is statistically different from the median white blood cell count recovery after taxol in mice which have no human MDR-1 modified marrow (P < 0.001).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
A unique mRNA produced by the t(15;17) (q22-24;q11-21) translocation in the leukemic cells of acute promyelocytic leukemia patients encodes a chimeric protein, PML/RARalpha, which is formed by the fusion of the retinoic acid receptor alpha (RARalpha) and the promyelocytic locus gene (PML). This translocation is often the only visible karyotypic aberration present which is detected in almost 100% of acute promyelocytic leukemia patients. As an initial step to study the role of PML/RARalpha in leukemogenesis, we attempted to express the fusion protein in hematopoietic cells through retrovirus-mediated gene transfer of the retroviral vector, pGPRCHT, which contains the PML/RARalpha cDNA. Transduction of the PML/RARalpha cDNA fragment used in this vector, which extends from the position 31 bp to the position 2638 bp in a transcription unit driven by the Moloney murine sarcoma virus LTR, was found to abrogate the growth factor dependence of TF-1 cells. In addition, introduction of PML/RARalpha into TF-1 cells can protect these cells from the apoptosis usually induced in TF-1 cells by growth factor withdrawal, as measured by three assays for apoptosis: morphology, DNA ladder formation, and end labeling of nicked DNA with fluorescent-conjugated nucleotide precursors followed by a fluorescence-activated cell sorting assay. These data suggest that the PML/RARalpha fusion protein may inhibit programmed cell death in myeloid cells.

Abstract
A retrovirus containing the multiple drug resistance (MDR-1) cDNA, was used to transduce cultures of CD34 selected human marrow cells, on stromal monolayers in the presence of hematopoietic growth factors IL-3 and IL-6, following collection from patients recently recovered from chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression. In one experiment, these CD34 selected cells were grown in Dexter cultures for 35 days or more following MDR-1 transduction, and then plated in methylcellulose. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis of colonies picked after 10-14 days of methylcellulose culture, using a set of primers that are specific for the endogenous or the retrovirally transduced MDR-1, showed that the long-term culture initiating cells (LTCICs) were transduced by the MDR-1 virus. Analysis of the colonies from the CD34 selected MDR-1 transduced cells, with a reverse transcription (RT) PCR assay that could distinguish viral MDR-1 mRNA from endogenous MDR-1 mRNA, showed that the viral MDR-1 mRNA levels were much higher than that of the MDR-1 mRNA from the endogenous MDR-1 gene in the transduced CD34 selected cells. Fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis of the CD34 selected transduced marrow cells within 48 h after the transduction, using the C219 and UIC2 monoclonal antibodies for p-glycoprotein, showed that the transduction frequency under these conditions varied from 7 to 20%. Rhodamine efflux studies showed that this additional p-glycoprotein was functional and that the frequency of cells with high p-glycoprotein levels was higher in the transduced cells than in the non-transduced cells. The resistance to taxol of the CD34 selected transduced cells, as judged by the plating efficiency of clonogenic progenitor cells derived from these cells by growth in methylcellulose supplemented with taxol was much higher in the transduced cells than in untransduced cells. In order to test the reproducibility of the transduction frequency of the retroviral supernatants from PA317 MDR-1 viral producer cells on CD34 selected cells, the virus produced from 12 different lots of supernatants from the PA317 MDR-1 producer cell line was used to transduce CD34 selected marrow cells from four different patients, and to transduce the peripheral blood cells of two additional patients collected following chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression. The supernatant lots used for these transduction experiments were tested by Microbiological Associates (Rockville, MD, USA), by the Mus dunni co-cultivation and amplification tests in the S+L-assay and found to be negative for replication-competent retrovirus, and later approved for human use by the Food and Drug Administration.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Relapse after autologous bone marrow transplantation for chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) can be due either to the persistence of leukemia cells in systemic tissues following preparative therapy, or due to the persistence of leukemia cells in the autologous marrow used to restore marrow function after intensive therapy. To help distinguish between these two possible causes of relapse, we used safety-modified retroviruses, which contain the bacterial resistance gene NEO, to mark autologous marrow cells that had been collected from patients early in the phase of hematopoietic recovery after in vivo chemotherapy. The cells were then subjected to ex vivo CD34 selection following collection and 30% of the bone marrow were exposed to a safety-modified virus. This marrow was infused after delivery of systemic therapy, which consisted of total body irradiation (1,020 cGy), cyclophosphamide (120 mg/kg), and VP-16 (750 mg/m2). RT PCR assays specific for the bacterial NEO mRNA, which was coded for by the virus, and the bcr-abl mRNA showed that in two evaluable CML patients transplanted with marked cells, sufficient numbers of leukemia cells remained in the infused marrow to contribute to systemic relapse. In addition, both normal and leukemic cells positive for the retroviral transgenome persisted in the systemic circulation of the patients for at least 280 days posttransplant showing that the infused marrow was responsible for the return of hematopoiesis following the preparative therapy. This observation shows that it is possible to use a replication-incompetent safety-modified retrovirus in order to introduce DNA sequences into the hematopoietic cells of patients undergoing autologous bone marrow transplantation. Moreover, this data suggested that additional fractionation procedures will be necessary to reduce the probability of relapse after bone marrow transplantation in at least the advanced stages of the disease in CML patients undergoing autologous bone marrow transplantation procedures.

Abstract
We report here the development of multiplex in vitro DNA amplification and solid-phase direct exon sequencing for the analysis of mutations at the hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (hprt) locus in Chinese hamster cells. 18 representative HPRT-deficient mutants, derived either spontaneously, or after exposure to UV light or ionizing radiation, were analyzed. All 9 hprt exons were simultaneously amplified via the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for rapid deletion detection. 5 mutants involve single- or multiple-exon deletions. Altered multiplex PCR patterns were detected in mutants Bsp-040, Bsp-065 and BGR-606. Subsequent direct sequence analysis reveals that Bsp-040 and Bsp-065 carry a 52-bp and a 13-bp intragenic DNA deletion in exon 3, respectively. BGR-606 contains a 223-bp insertion accompanied by a 10-bp deletion of intron sequence within exon 4 fragment. Other subtle DNA alterations identified by direct exon sequence analysis include single-base substitutions, small deletions and insertions, and RNA splicing mutations.
