Abstract
The clinical data of 7 patients diagnosed with mixed neuroendocrine-nonneuroendocrine neoplasm were analyzed in the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery of Hunan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2016 to December 2022. Among the 7 patients, 5 were male and 2 were female, with an average age of 59.3 years. Its clinical characteristics are similar to malignant ampulla tumors, and it is difficult to differentiate them. The preoperative puncture biopsy positivity rate is low, making it difficult to diagnose preoperatively, and the prognosis is worse.Comprehensive treatment including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy can be the preferred treatment option for this disease.

Abstract
Hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) has been demonstrated to be more effective in mitigating ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) of donation after circulatory death (DCD) organs than cold storage (CS), yet the underlying mechanism remains obscure. We aimed to propose a novel therapeutic approach to ameliorate IRI in DCD liver transplantation. Twelve clinical liver samples were randomly assigned to HMP or CS treatment and subsequent transcriptomics analysis was performed. By combining in vivo HMP models, we discovered that HMP attenuated inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in DCD liver through a SEPRINA3-mediated PI3Kδ/AKT signaling cascade. Moreover, in the hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) model of BRL-3A, overexpression of SERPINA3 mitigated H/R-induced apoptosis, while SERPINA3 knockdown exacerbated cell injury. Idelalisib (IDE) treatment also reversed the protective effect of SERPINA3 overexpression. Overall, our research provided new insights into therapeutic strategies and identified potential novel molecular targets for therapeutic intervention against DCD liver.

Abstract
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), an acetaldehyde dehydrogenase in mitochondria, is primarily responsible for metabolizing alcohol-derived acetaldehyde and other endogenous aldehydes. Inactivating ALDH2 rs671 polymorphism is found in up to 8 % of the global population and 40 % of the East Asian population. Recent studies have shown that rs671 SNP mutation in the human ALDH2 gene is associated with an increased risk of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver diseases (MASLD), but the mechanism remains unclear. Here, we identify the role of ALDH2 in MASLD. Firstly, ALDH2 activity was lower in MASLD patients and the methionine-choline deficiency (MCD) diet induced MASLD model. Secondly, activation of ALDH2 activity with Alda-1 (ALDH2 agonist) attenuated MCD-diet induced hepatic triglyceride (TG) accumulation and steatosis, whereas the opposite result was observed with cyanamide (CYA, ALDH2 inhibitor). Furthermore, ALDH2 deficiency exacerbated hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis in the MCD-diet induced mice. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) revealed that oxysterol 7-α hydroxylase (Cyp7b1) and the related metabolic pathway significantly changed in the MCD-diet challenged ALDH2-/- mice. In ALDH2-/- mice, the expression of Cyp7b1 was downregulated and FXR/SHP signaling was inhibited, reducing the alternative bile acid (BA) synthetic pathway. In our in vitro experiments, knockdown of ALDH2 exacerbated TG accumulation in hepatocytes, whereas the opposite result was observed with overexpression of ALDH2. Moreover, chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) rescued ALDH2 downregulation induced TG accumulation in hepatocytes. Our study reveals that ALDH2 attenuates hepatocyte steatosis by regulating the alternative BA synthesis pathway, and ALDH2 may serve as a potential target for the treatment of MASLD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Objective measures of screen time are necessary to better understand the complex relationship between screen time and health outcomes. However, current objective measures of screen time (e.g., passive sensing applications) are limited in identifying the user of the mobile device, a critical limitation in children's screen time research where devices are often shared across a family. Behavioral biometrics, a technology that uses embedded sensors on modern mobile devices to continuously authenticate users, could be used to address this limitation. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this scoping review was to summarize the current state of behavioral biometric authentication and synthesize these findings within the scope of applying behavioral biometric technology to screen time measurement. METHODS We systematically searched five databases (Web of Science Core Collection, Inspec in Engineering Village, Applied Science & Technology Source, IEEE Xplore, PubMed), with the last search in September of 2022. Eligible studies were on the authentication of the user or the detection of demographic characteristics (age, gender) using built-in sensors on mobile devices (e.g., smartphone, tablet). Studies were required to use the following methods for authentication: motion behavior, touch, keystroke dynamics, and/or behavior profiling. We extracted study characteristics (sample size, age, gender), data collection methods, data stream, model evaluation metrics, and performance of models, and additionally performed a study quality assessment. Summary characteristics were tabulated and compiled in Excel. We synthesized the extracted information using a narrative approach. RESULTS Of the 14,179 articles screened, 122 were included in this scoping review. Of the 122 included studies, the most highly used biometric methods were touch gestures (n = 76) and movement (n = 63), with 30 studies using keystroke dynamics and 6 studies using behavior profiling. Of the studies that reported age (47), most were performed exclusively in adult populations (n = 34). The overall study quality was low, with an average score of 5.5/14. CONCLUSION The field of behavioral biometrics is limited by the low overall quality of studies. Behavioral biometric technology has the potential to be used in a public health context to address the limitations of current measures of screen time; however, more rigorous research must be performed in child populations first. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION The protocol has been pre-registered in the Open Science Framework database ( https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/92YCT ).

Abstract
Hepatectomy, a surgical procedure for liver cancer, is often plagued by high recurrence rates worldwide. The recurrence of liver cancer is primarily attributed to microlesions in the liver, changes in the immune microenvironment, and circulating tumor cells in the bloodstream. To address this issue, a novel intervention method that combines intraoperative hemostasis with mild photothermal therapy is proposed, which has the potential to ablate microlesions and improve the immune microenvironment simultaneously. Specifically, the integrated strategy is realized based on the fibrous chitosan/polydopamine sponge (CPDS), which is constructed from shearing-flow-induced oriented hybrid chitosan fibers and subsequent self-assembly of polydopamine. The CPDS demonstrates high elasticity, excellent water absorption, and photothermal conversion performance. The results confirm the efficient hemostatic properties of the fibrous CPDS in various bleeding models. Notably, in subcutaneous and orthotopic postoperative recurrence and metastasis models of hepatocellular carcinoma, the fibrous CPDS significantly inhibits local tumor recurrence and distant metastasis. Moreover, the combination with lenvatinib can substantially enhance the antitumor effect. This comprehensive treatment strategy offers new insights into hepatectomy of liver cancer, representing a promising approach for clinical management.

Abstract
Reprogramming of lipid metabolism during hepatocarcinogenesis is not well elucidated. Here, we aimed to explore pivotal RNA-binding motif proteins (RBMs) in lipid metabolism and their therapeutic potential in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Through bioinformatic analysis, we identified RBM45 as a critical gene of interest among differentially expressed RBMs in HCC, with significant prognostic relevance. RBM45 influenced the malignant biological phenotype and lipid metabolism of HCC cells. Mechanically, RBM45 promotes de novo lipogenesis in HCC by directly targeting two key enzymes involved in long-chain fatty acid synthesis, ACSL1 and ACSL4. RBM45 also targets Rictor, which has been demonstrated to modulate lipid metabolism profoundly. RBM45 also aided lipid degradation through activating a key fatty acid β oxidation enzyme, CPT1A. Thus, RBM45 boosted lipid synthesis and decomposition, indicating an enhanced utility of lipid fuels in HCC. Clinically, body mass index was positively correlated with RBM45 in human HCCs. The combination of a PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway inhibitor in vitro or Sorafenib in orthotopic liver cancer mouse models with shRBM45 has a more significant therapeutic effect on liver cancer than the drug alone. In summary, our findings highlight the versatile roles of RBM45 in lipid metabolism reprogramming and its therapeutic potential in HCC. Lipids induced RBM45 expression. In turn, RBM45 promoted the utility of lipid in HCCs through accelerating both de novo lipogenesis and fatty acid β oxidation, which required the participation of Rictor, a core component of mTORC2 that has been demonstrated to modulate lipid metabolism potently, as well as ACSL1/ACSL4, two key enzymes of long-chain fatty acid synthesis. When the first-line chemotherapy drug sorafenib is combined with a PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway inhibitor (MK2206 is an AKT inhibitor, rapamycin is a mTOR inhibitor, and inhibiting RBM45 can significantly inhibit Rictor), cell cycle, proliferation, lipid metabolism reprogramming, and hepatocarcinogenesis can be significantly inhibited, while apoptosis can be significantly enhanced.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mutations in TP53 gene is considered a main driver of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). While TP53 mutations are the leading cause of p53 dysfunction, their occurrence rates may drop to approximately 10% in cohorts without hepatitis B virus and aflatoxin exposure. This observation suggests that the deactivation of wild-type p53 (p53wt) may be a critical factor in the majority of HCC cases. However, the mechanism undermining p53wt activity in the liver remains unclear. METHODS Microarray analysis and luciferase assay were utilized to confirm target associations. Gain- and/or loss-of-function methods were employed to assess alterations in signaling pathways. Protein interactions were analyzed by molecular immunological methods and further visualized by confocal microscopy. Bioinformatic analysis was performed to analyze clinical significance. Tumor xenograft nude mice were used to validate the findings in vivo. RESULTS Our study highlights the oncogenic role of Rictor, a key component of the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2), in hepatocytes. Rictor exerts its oncogenic function by binding to p53wt and subsequently blocking p53wt activity based on p53 status, requiring the involvement of mTOR. Moreover, we observed a dynamic nucleocytoplasmic distribution pattern of Rictor, characterized by its translocation from the nucleus (in precancerous lesions) to the cytoplasm (in HCCs) during malignant transformation. Notably, Rictor is directly targeted by the liver-enriched microRNA miR-192, and the disruption of the miR-192-Rictor-p53-miR-192 signaling axis was consistently observed in both human and rat HCC models. Clinical analysis associated lower miR-192/higher Rictor with shorter overall survival and more advanced clinical stages (P < 0.05). In mice, xenograft tumors overexpressing miR-192 exhibited lower Rictor expression levels, leading to higher p53 activity, and these tumors displayed slower growth compared to untreated HCC cells. CONCLUSIONS Rictor dynamically shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm during HCC development. Its pivotal oncogenic role involves binding and inhibiting p53wt activity within the nucleus in early hepatocarcinogenesis. Targeting Rictor presents a promising strategy for HCC based on p53 status.

A simple and convenient model combining multiparametric MRI and clinical features to predict tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes in breast cancer. Clin Radiol 2023; 78:e1065-e1074.

Abstract
AIM To develop a simple and convenient method based on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical features to non-invasively predict tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in breast cancer (BC) and to explore the relationship between TIL levels and disease-free survival (DFS). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 172 BC patients were enrolled between November 2017 and June 2021 in this retrospective study. The patients were divided into high (≥10%) and low (<10%) TIL groups. Clinicopathological data were collected. MRI features were reviewed by two radiologists. Predictors associated with TILs were determined by using multivariable logistic regression analyses. Kaplan-Meier survival curves based on TIL levels were used to estimate DFS. RESULTS A total of 102 patients with low TILs and 70 patients with high TILs were included in the study. Tumour size (odds ratio [OR], 1.040; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.006, 1.075; p=0.020), apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC; OR, 1.003; 95% CI: 1.001, 1.005; p=0.015), clinical axillary lymph node status (CALNS; OR, 3.222; 95% CI: 1.372,7.568; p=0.007), and enhancement pattern (OR, 0.284; 95% CI: 0.143, 0.563; p<0.001) were independently associated with TIL levels. These features were used in the ALSE model (where A is ADC, L is CALNS, S is size, and E is enhancement pattern). High TILs were associated with better DFS (p=0.016). CONCLUSION The ALSE model derived from multiparametric MRI and clinical features could non-invasively predict TIL levels in BC, and high TILs were associated with longer DFS, especially in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive BC and triple-negative BC (TNBC).

Abstract
Interactions between plants and herbivores are central in most ecosystems, but their strength is highly variable. The amount of variability within a system is thought to influence most aspects of plant-herbivore biology, from ecological stability to plant defense evolution. Our understanding of what influences variability, however, is limited by sparse data. We collected standardized surveys of herbivory for 503 plant species at 790 sites across 116° of latitude. With these data, we show that within-population variability in herbivory increases with latitude, decreases with plant size, and is phylogenetically structured. Differences in the magnitude of variability are thus central to how plant-herbivore biology varies across macroscale gradients. We argue that increased focus on interaction variability will advance understanding of patterns of life on Earth.

Abstract
Permanent hypoparathyroidism is a postoperative complication of thyroid and parathyroid surgery and can be cured by cryopreserved parathyroid autotransplantation (CPAT). However, due to the lack of unified and standardized guidelines, the limited ability of the parathyroid tissue itself to withstand cryopreservation, and some yet-to-be-defined processes or technologies, the success rate of cryopreserved parathyroid autotransplantation varies between institutions; it is low for some institutions and high for others. Due to the sparsity of data, views vary on which factors most influence the success rate of cryopreserved parathyroid autotransplantation. In this review, we analyzed the following probable influencing factors: ischemic period before cryopreservation; processes of cryopreservation and thawing, including freezing medium; freezing and thawing methods; duration of cryopreservation; examination of the graft before transplantation; graft site; mass of transplanted tissue fragments; blood calcium level; and the evaluation criteria for cryopreserved parathyroid autotransplantation success. Although the effects of these factors are debatable, we hypothesized that examining them in the above-given order to determine whether they affect the success rate of cryopreserved parathyroid autotransplantation could be beneficial to maximizing the success rate. Our findings led us to conclude that cryopreserved parathyroid autotransplantation operations should be standardized. Standardized guidelines for cryopreserved parathyroid autotransplantation that include such factors as ischemic period time, freezing and thawing methods, and recipient status should be established based on a comprehensive analysis of these factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Drain tube management after liver transplant is controversial. A new peritoneal drainage management protocol was developed to validate clinical characteristics, such as drain characteristics, postoperative complications, duration of postoperative hospital stay, changes in albumin levels, and 30-day readmission rates. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data from 183 consecutive patients who underwent deceased donor liver transplant at our institution between January 2019 and June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. A new drain management protocol was implemented on August 1, 2021, which included early removal of the drain tube when the serum albumin level was >3 g/dL and nonchylous fluid drainage was <200 mL/day. RESULTS When we compared the traditional and new drain management protocol groups (n = 131 vs n = 52), the new management protocol group showed a decrease in the median duration of intraperitoneal drainage. In addition, the median length of postoperative hospital stay decreased from 33 to 27 days and serum albumin levels returned to normal faster at postoperative 3 weeks. No significant differences were found in postoperative hemorrhage, hematoma, hydrops abdominis, infections, biliary complications, orin the rate ofreinterventions and 30-day rehospitalizations. CONCLUSIONS The new management protocol was associated with fewer postoperative hospital days and faster recovery than traditional management. Our findings may aid in the development of new drain policy recommendations based on preexisting risk factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Artificial ovary (AO) is an alternative approach to provide physiological hormone to post-menopausal women. The therapeutic effects of AO constructed using alginate (ALG) hydrogels are limited by their low angiogenic potential, rigidity, and non-degradability. To address these limitations, biodegradable chitin-based (CTP) hydrogels that promote cell proliferation and vascularization were synthesized, as supportive matrix. METHODS In vitro, follicles isolated from 10-12-days-old mice were cultured in 2D, ALG hydrogels, and CTP hydrogels. After 12 days of culture, follicle growth, steroid hormone levels, oocyte meiotic competence, and expression of folliculogenesis-related genes were monitored. Additionally, follicles isolated from 10-12-days-old mice were encapsulated in CTP and ALG hydrogels and transplanted into the peritoneal pockets of ovariectomised (OVX) mice. After transplantation, steroid hormone levels, body weight, rectal temperature, and visceral fat of the mice were monitored every two weeks. At 6 and 10 weeks after transplantation, the uterus, vagina, and femur were collected for histological examination. RESULTS The follicles developed normally in CTP hydrogels under in vitro culture conditions. Additionally, follicular diametre and survival rate, oestrogen production, and expression of folliculogenesis-related genes were significantly higher than those in ALG hydrogels. After one week of transplantation, the numbers of CD34-positive vessels and Ki-67-positive cells in CTP hydrogels were significantly higher than those in ALG hydrogels (P < 0.05), and the follicle recovery rate was significantly higher in CTP hydrogels (28%) than in ALG hydrogels (17.2%) (P < 0.05). After two weeks of transplantation, OVX mice implanted with CTP grafts exhibited normal steroid hormone levels, which were maintained until week eight. After 10 weeks of transplantation, CTP grafts effectively ameliorated bone loss and atrophy of the reproductive organs, as well as prevented the increase in body weight and rectal temperature in OVX mice, which were superior to those elicited by ALG grafts. CONCLUSIONS Our study is the first to demonstrate that CTP hydrogels support follicles longer than ALG hydrogels in vitro and in vivo. The results highlight the clinical potential of AO constructed using CTP hydrogels in the treatment of menopausal symptoms.

Abstract
Natural polymer hydrogels are widely used in various aspects of biomedical engineering, such as wound repair, owing to their abundance and biosafety. However, the low strength and the lack of function restricted their development and application scope. Herein, we fabricated novel multifunctional chitin/PEGDE-tannic acid (CPT) hydrogels through chemical- and physical-crosslinking strategies, using chitin as the base material, polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (PEGDE) and tannic acid (TA) as crosslinking agents, and 90 % ethanol as the regenerative bath. CPT hydrogels maintained a stable three-dimensional porous structure with suitable water contents and excellent biocompatibility. The mechanical properties of hydrogels were greatly improved (tensile stress up to 5.43 ± 1.14 MPa). Moreover, CPT hydrogels had good antibacterial, antioxidant, and hemostatic activities and could substantially promote wound healing in a rat model of full-thickness skin defect by regulating inflammatory responses and promoting collagen deposition and blood vessel formation. Therefore, this work provides a useful strategy to fabricate novel multifunctional CPT hydrogels with excellent mechanical, antibacterial, antioxidant, hemostatic, and biocompatible properties. CPT hydrogels could be promising candidates for wound healing.

Abstract
Skin wounds may cause severe financial and social burden due to the difficulties in wound healing. Original inert dressings cannot meet multiple needs in the process of wound healing. Therefore, the development of materials to accelerate healing progress is essential and urgent. In the previous study, we found that the homogeneously synthesized hydroxybutyl chitosan (HBCS) had an effective performance in promoting wound healing. Proteomic analysis of the same specimen suggested that matrix metalloproteinase 23 (MMP23) may play a key role in HBCS expediting the progress of wound healing. In this work, we aim to reveal the underlying mechanism of MMP23 in the dynamic process of cutaneous proliferation and repair period. In order to regulate the expression level of MMP23 in the local wound area, we leaded in adeno-associated virus (AAV) to specifically decreased expression quantity of MMP23 in rat skin. In contrast to the negative control groups, we found that the wound closed faster and the collagen fibers and neovascularization were significantly increased in AAV groups. These findings highlighted that MMP23 was involved in wound healing after traumatic injury, and managing the expression of MMP23 could be a potential intervention target to accelerate wound healing.

Abstract
To observe the regulation of B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2)/Beclin 1 interaction through electroacupuncture (EA) intervention during reperfusion and to investigate the EA mechanism of apoptosis-autophagy interactive regulation against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). A total of 48 adult Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into the sham-operated group (group Sham), the model group (group Model), the EA group (group EA), and the JNK inhibitor (SP600125) group (group JNK), with 12 rats in each group. Biospecimens were collected randomly from six rats in each group four hours after reperfusion. Evans Blue and triphenyl tetrazolium chloride double-staining were applied to observe each group's myocardial damage area and risk area. We collected 4 ml of blood by abdominal aortic method to detect serum troponin cTnI level by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). For the remaining six in each group, a part of myocardial tissue below the ligation line was stored in 4% paraformaldehyde for immunohistochemistry and TUNEL staining; the other amount of myocardial tissue was detected by Western blotting to determine the expression levels of Bcl-2, Beclin1, and the phosphorylation levels of Thr69, Ser70, and Ser87 in Bcl-2. In results: electroacupuncture (EA) intervention during reperfusion significantly reduced the myocardial infarction area, cTnI level, and myocardial apoptosis, upregulated Bcl-2 expression, downregulated Beclin 1 expression and inhibited phosphorylation levels of Thr69, Ser70, and Ser87 in Bcl-2. We concluded that EA effectively inhibited apoptosis by upregulating Bcl-2 expression and inhibiting the phosphorylation of Thr69, Ser70, and Ser87 in Bcl-2. This reduced the separation of Bcl-2 and Beclin 1, restrains excessive autophagy, alleviates MIRI, and has a protective effect on myocardial tissue.

Abstract
Renal transplantation is currently the most effective treatment for end-stage renal disease. However, chronic antibody-mediated rejection (cABMR) remains a serious obstacle for the long-term survival of patients with renal transplantation and a problem to be solved. At present, the role and mechanism underlying immune factors such as T- and B- cell subsets in cABMR after renal transplantation remain unclear. In this study, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of peripheral blood monocytes (PBMCs) from cABMR and control subjects was performed to define the transcriptomic landscape at single-cell resolution. A comprehensive scRNA-seq analysis was performed. The results indicated that most cell types in the cABMR patients exhibited an intense interferon response and release of proinflammatory cytokines. In addition, we found that the expression of MT-ND6, CXCL8, NFKBIA, NFKBIZ, and other genes were up-regulated in T- and B-cells and these genes were associated with pro-inflammatory response and immune regulation. Western blot and qRT-PCR experiments also confirmed the up-regulated expression of these genes in cABMR. GO and KEGG enrichment analyses indicated that the overexpressed genes in T- and B-cells were mainly enriched in inflammatory pathways, including the TNF, IL-17, and Toll-like receptor signaling pathways. Additionally, MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathways were also involved in the occurrence and development of cABMR. This is consistent with the experimental results of Western blot. Trajectory analysis assembled the T-cell subsets into three differentiation paths with distinctive phenotypic and functional prog rams. CD8 effector T cells and γδ T cells showed three different differentiation trajectories, while CD8_MAI T cells and naive T cells primarily had two differentiation trajectories. Cell-cell interaction analysis revealed strong T/B cells and neutrophils activation in cABMR. Thus, the study offers new insight into pathogenesis and may have implications for the identification of novel therapeutic targets for cABMR.

Abstract
Bacterial infection has become one of the most challenges for wound healing, which causes serious inflammatory response and delays the healing process. Herein, a novel sponge with excellent biocompatible, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties based on quaternized cellulose (QC), sodium alginate (SA) and Zn2+ was reported. The existence of physical interactions, such as electrostatic interaction, chelation and hydrogen bonding endowed the sponges with enhanced mechanical property. The composite sponges exhibited outstanding biocompatibility and hemostatic efficiency due to the compatible nature of the component and physical cross-linking, as well as superior antibacterial property benefited from the synergistic effects of steady Zn2+ release and quaternary ammonium group. In vivo investigation validated that the enhanced antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effect of the sponges, which significantly promoted wound closure and the reconstruction of skin tissue through epithelial regeneration, collagen deposition and mitigating inflammatory cell infiltration. Overall, the novel sponge demonstrated great potentials in bacteria-associated wound management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aims of this study were to investigate the pathologic manifestation of pretransplant biopsy and to provide an accurate assessment method for liver graft of China Donation after Citizen's Death (CDCD). METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed based on clinical and biopsy data of 96 CDCD liver transplantations completed between January 2012 and December 2017. The pretransplant pathologic sections were semiquantitatively scored according to Banff Schema recommendations on liver allograft pathology. Graft overall survival (OS) and early allograft dysfunction (EAD) rates were observed. RESULTS The histologic analysis of the 96 CDCD liver graft biopsy specimens was summarized, including portal area neutrophilic infiltrate, macrovesicular steatosis, microvesicular steatosis, and hepatocellular swelling. Among these pathologic characteristics, only portal area neutrophilic infiltrate ≥20% was an independent risk factor for graft survival, although it has limited effect on the recipient's short-term prognosis. CONCLUSIONS We found that portal area neutrophilic infiltrate ≥20% was an independent risk factors for long-term graft survival. According to this criterion, we can identify liver transplant recipients at risk for poor prognosis and make timely interventions.

Abstract
We investigated changes in concentrations of ADP (adiponectin), LEP (leptin), BHBA (beta-hydroxybutyric acid), NEFA (non-esterified fatty acid), Glucose (Glu) and INS (insulin) in serum of healthy perinatal dairy cows and cows with ketosis. Twenty-one healthy cows and seventeen cows with ketosis from a herd of a total 60 Holstein cows (near dry period i.e. 56 days antepartum) were selected. Blood was collected through the tail vein every 7 days, from 56 day antepartum to 56 day postpartum. Serum ADP, LEP, BHBA, NEFA, Glu, and INS concentrations were determined, and ketosis was diagnosed through serum BHBA (≥1.2 mmol/L). We showed the concentration of serum adipokines and energy balancing indices were stable during antepar- tum period. However, ADP concentration increased while LEP decreased, and there were a significant increase in cows with ketosis compared to that of in healthy cows. Serum BHBA and NEFA concentrations increased significantly at first, and then gradually decreased in both healthy cows and cows with ketosis. However, cows with ketosis showed higher concentrations of BHBA and NEFA which restored later. The serum concentration of Glu in both healthy dairy cows and cows with ketosis showed a decreasing trend. INS concentration in healthy cows was decreased while it was increased in cows with ketosis. The results reflect the extent of hypo- glycemia and lipid mobilization postpartum, suggest IR exists in cows with ketosis while serum ADP and LEP might play roles in the development of ketosis.

Abstract
Aims The aim of the present study was to investigate mutation status of the cKit and PDGFRA genes in patients with a gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). Methods In total, 96 patients with a GIST were included in the study, in which polymerase chain reaction amplification and gene sequencing were used to detect the sequences of exons 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 17, and 18 in KIT and exons 12, 14, and 18 in PDGFRA. Results KIT mutations were detected in 65 cases (67.71%), of which 81.54% (53/65) were located on exon 11, 12.31% (8/65) were located on exon 9, 4.61% (3/65) were located on exon 17, which included a concomitant mutation of exon 9 and 11, and 4.08% (2/65) were located on exon 13, which included a concomitant mutation on exon 11. The most common mutation in exon 11 was deletion, which accounted for 77.36% (41/53) of the cases, followed by a point mutation observed in 22.64% (12/53) of the cases. Among the 31 GIST cases without a KIT mutation, a mutation in PDGFRA was detected in 5 cases (5.21%, 5/96; 16.13%, 5/31). With respect to gender, age, tumor max diameter, tumor position, and mitotic index, there were no significant differences between KIT/PDGFRA mutations and non-mutations. Conclusions GIST mainly occurs in the stomach, and the cytological morphology is mainly spindle cells, and the mutations mainly occur in KIT genes. We need a large sample size to analyze the regularity of GIST gene mutations in Hakka population and understand the independent prognostic correlation of all KIT/PDGFRA genotypes.

Abstract
Background:Synovial fluid cell counts have long been recognised to have utility in the diagnosis and management of arthritis. Few studies have explained the diagnosis value of synovial fluid cell counts in gout patients.Objectives:The study aims to investigate the diagnosis value of synovial fluid cell counts in gout patients.Methods:A total of 185 gout, 64 rheumatoid arthritis(RA), 26 axial spondyloarthritis(axSpA) and 24 osteoarthritis(OA) patients were included into the study. According to serum uric acid(sUA) level on attack, gout patients were divided into normal sUA gout patients and high sUA gout patients. The laboratory data was recorded and ROC curve was performed.Results:The synovial fluid WBC, PBMC, monocyte, PMN and neutrophil in gout patients were higher than OA patients (P<0.05). The synovial fluid PBMC and lymphocyte in gout patients were lower than RA and axSpA patients (P<0.05). Compared with RA, axSpA and OA patients, ROC curve showed that the AUC value of lymphocyte and sUA for gout were 0.728 and 0.881, which were higher than other variables. The optimal cut off value of lymphocyte for gout was 1.362, with sensitivity of 83.3% and specificity of 60.6%. The AUC value of lymphocyte and sUA for normal sUA gout patients were 0.694 and 0.643, which were higher than other variables. The optimal cut off value of lymphocyte for normal sUA gout patients was 1.362, with sensitivity of 81.6% and specificity of 60.6%.Conclusion:Synovial fluid cell counts of gout patients were different from RA, axSpA, and OA patients. Synovial fluid lymphocyte had a higher diagnosis value for gout.References:[1]Scanu A, Oliviero F, Ramonda R, et al.

Abstract
Background:Underexcretion of uric acid is the dominant mechanism leading to hyperuricemia [1] and the 24-hour urinary uric acid excretion is an important measurement. However, it is inconvenient due to accurate timing and complete collection of the specimen.Objectives:The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between serum uric acid to creatinine ratio (sUACR) and 24-hour urinary uric acid excretion in gout patients.Methods:A total of 110 gout patients fulfilling 2015 ACR/EULAR classification criteria from Guangdong Second Provincial General Hospital from January 2019 to January 2021 were retrospectively enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into underexcretion group (<3600 μmol/24h) and non-underexcretion group (≥3600 μmol/24h). The correlation between sUACR and 24-hour urinary uric acid excretion was analyzed by the Pearson’s correlations analysis. Receiver operation characteristic (ROC) curves were performed to assess the utility of sUACR for discriminating between underexcretion group and non-underexcretion group. Furthermore, the risk factors of uric acid underexcretion were evaluated using binary logistic regression analysis.Results:sUACR in the underexcretion group was significantly lower than the non-underexcretion group (p=0.0001). Besides, sUACR was positively correlated with 24-hour urinary uric acid excretion (r=0.4833, p<0.0001). Furthermore, ROC suggested that the area under the curve (AUC) of sUACR was 0.728, which was higher that of serum uric acid and creatinine. The optimal cutoff point of sUACR was 5.2312, with a sensitivity and specificity of 71.9% and 67.9%. Logistic analysis results revealed that decreased sUACR (<5.2312) was an independent risk factor of underexcretion of uric acid (OR =5.510, 95% CI: 1.952-15.550, P=0.001).Conclusion:sUACR is lower in gout patients with underexcretion of uric acid and may serve as a useful and convenient marker of assessing underexcretion of uric acid in gout patients.References:[1]Perez-Ruiz F, Calabozo M, Erauskin GG, Ruibal A, Herrero-Beites AM.

Abstract
Background:Gout is a crystal-related arthropathy caused by monosodium urate deposition, which is a common and treatable form of inflammatory arthritis and becoming more prevalent[1]. A few studies have found that gout patients have an increased prevalence of simple renal cysts[2, 3]. The relationship between gout and renal cysts is still insufficient.Objectives:Compare the difference between gout with renal cyst and without renal cyst.Methods:We retrospectively collected data on 200 gout patients. The data includes age, gender, uric acid, creatinine, glomerular filtration rate, 24-hour urine collection, and whether they have kidney stones, renal cysts, coronary heart disease, hypertension, and diabetes. Chi-square and exact Fisher’s tests were utilized, while continuous variables were assessed by Student’s t-test. A P value of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results:Of the 200 gout patients, 56 have kidney cysts(28%). In gout patients who had a renal cyst, were significantly older than patients without renal cysts (59.14 vs. 46.87, P = 0.000), more number of people suffering from coronary heart disease (7 vs. 5, P = 0.016). The glomerular filtration rate was lower (58.5 vs. 71.6, P = 0.000), with lower urinary creatinine, uric acid, and urinary potassium.Conclusion:Gout patients with and without simple renal cysts have significant differences in age, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, GFR, serum creatinine, urine creatinine, and urine potassium.References:[1]N.

Abstract
Liver ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is an unavoidable pathological process in transplantation, closely related to poor prognosis. To date, there has been no clear therapeutic measure. We previously reported that mild hypothermia (MH), a widely used therapy, can exert significant protective effect against liver IR injury. Among the multiple mechanisms underlying the therapeutic effect of MH, autophagy flux drew our special attention. In this study, we evaluated the role of autophagy flux in IR injury and thereby explored the relationship between MH and autophagy flux in IR injury. We developed in vivo and in vitro models for hepatic IR injury. By autophagy flux assay with Western blotting and immunofluorescence, we found that MH restricts heavy accumulation of autophagosomes (APs) during IR injury. Activation and blocking of the autophagy flux unraveled that accumulation of APs further aggravated IR injury. Further, MH reduces APs accumulation to restore autophagy flux by regulating the fusion of APs and lysosomes. Besides, MH upregulated the level of Rab7 protein expression that was seriously impaired during IR injury. Inhibition of Rab7 expression increased apoptosis of liver cells and reduced the degree of overlap between APs and lysosomes. The results were reversed upon activation of Rab7. In conclusion, MH can alleviate liver IR injury by regulating the Rab7-mediated APs-lysosomes fusion that reduces APs accumulation. This can provide a theoretical basis for the further application of MH in related clinical diseases.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is an inevitable and serious clinical problem in donations after heart death (DCD) liver transplantation. Excessive sterile inflammation plays a fateful role in liver IRI. Hypothermic oxygenated perfusion (HOPE), as an emerging organ preservation technology, has a better preservation effect than cold storage (CS) for reducing liver IRI, in which regulating inflammation is one of the main mechanisms. HECTD3, a new E3 ubiquitin ligase, and TRAF3 have an essential role in inflammation. However, little is known about HECTD3 and TRAF3 in HOPE-regulated liver IRI. Here, we aimed to investigate the effects of HOPE on liver IRI in a DCD rat model and explore the roles of HECTD3 and TRAF3 in its pathogenesis. We found that HOPE significantly improved liver damage, including hepatocyte and liver sinusoidal endothelial cell injury, and reduced DCD liver inflammation. Mechanistically, both the DOC and HECT domains of HECTD3 directly interacted with TRAF3, and the catalytic Cys (C832) in the HECT domain promoted the K63-linked polyubiquitination of TRAF3 at Lys138. Further, the ubiquitinated TRAF3 at Lys138 increased oxidative stress and activated the NF-κB inflammation pathway to induce liver IRI in BRL-3A cells under hypoxia/reoxygenation conditions. Finally, we confirmed that the expression of HECTD3 and TRAF3 was obviously increased in human DCD liver transplantation specimens. Overall, these findings demonstrated that HOPE can protect against DCD liver transplantation-induced-liver IRI by reducing inflammation via HECTD3-mediated TRAF3 K63-linked polyubiquitination. Therefore, HOPE regulating the HECTD3/TRAF3 pathway is a novel target for improving IRI in DCD liver transplantation.

Abstract
Chitin and chitosan have been extensively used as wound dressings because of their special functions to promote wound healing. However, there was little focus on the effects of the degree of acetylation (DA) on wound healing. In this work, the regenerated chitin nonwoven fabrics with DA values of 90, 71, 60, and 42% were prepared, and the morphology and physical performances of the fabrics were characterized. Moreover, the effects of DA of the chitin nonwoven fabrics on wound recovery were studied with a full-thickness skin defect model in rats. In vitro experiments indicated that the chitin nonwoven fabrics exhibited good biocompatibility and blood compatibility and a low blood-clotting index (BCI). In vivo experiments revealed that the chitin nonwoven fabrics could accelerate wound healing more effectively than gauze by promoting re-epithelialization and collagen deposition as well as by stimulating neovascularization. The results of the wound healing process showed that DA of the chitin nonwoven fabrics had a profound effect on promoting wound healing. Notably, the regenerated chitin nonwoven fabrics with 71% DA significantly improved the wound healing compared to the commercial wound dressing Algoplaque film. Therefore, the regenerated chitin nonwoven fabrics are promising candidates for wound healing.

Abstract
Large-area X-ray imaging is one of the most widely used imaging modalities that spans several scientific and technological fields. Currently, the direct X-ray conversion materials that are being commercially used for large-area (> 8 cm × 4 cm without tiling) flat panel applications, such as amorphous selenium (a-Se), have usable sensitivities of up to only 30 keV. Although there have been many promising candidates (such as polycrystalline HgI2 and CdTe), none of the semiconductors were able to assuage the requirement for high energy (> 40 keV) large-area X-ray imaging applications due to inadequate cost, manufacturability, and long-term performance metrics. In this study, we successfully demonstrate the potential of the hybrid Methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI3) perovskite-based semiconductor detectors in satisfying all the requirements for its successful commercialization in synchrotron and medical imaging. This new generation of hybrid detectors demonstrates low dark current under electric fields needed for high sensitivity X-ray imaging applications. The detectors have a linear response to X-ray energy and applied bias, no polarization effects at a moderate bias, and signal stability over long usage durations. Also, these detectors have demonstrated a stable detection response under BNL’s National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) 70 keV monochromatic synchrotron beamline.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor (TRAF) proteins are a family of signaling molecules that function downstream of multiple receptor signaling pathways, and they play a pivotal role in the regulation of intracellular biological progresses. These TRAF-dependent signaling pathways and physiological functions have been involved in the occurrence and progression of ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), which is a common pathophysiological process that occurs in a wide variety of clinical events, including ischemic shock, organ transplantation, and thrombolytic therapy, resulting in a poor prognosis and high mortality. IRI occurs in multiple organs, including liver, kidney, heart, lung, brain, intestine, and retina. In recent years, mounting compelling evidence has confirmed that the genetic alterations of TRAFs can cause subversive phenotype changes during IRI of those organs. In this review, based on current knowledge, we summarized and analyzed the regulatory effect of TRAFs on the IRI of various organs, providing clear direction and a firm theoretical basis for the development of treatment strategies to manipulate TRAF proteins or TRAF-dependent signaling pathways in IRI-related diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognosis of patients with biliary atresia (BA) after Kasai portoenterostomy (KPE) varies, and precisely predicting the outcomes of KPE before surgery is still challenging. METHODS A total of 158 patients who underwent KPE in our hospital were included in this study. The patients in the training cohort were recruited from January 2012 to October 2017 (n = 118), and then, those in the validation cohort were recruited from November 2017 to April 2019 (n = 40). Combined nomogram models were developed based on two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D SWE) values and other biomarkers. The utility of the proposed models was evaluated by C-index. RESULTS 2D SWE played a potentially important role in predicting native liver survival (NLS) of BA patients with a C-index of 0.69 (0.63 to 0.75) in the training cohort and 0.76 (0.67 to 0.85) in the validation cohort. The nomogram A based on 2D SWE values, age, gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) and aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio (APRI) had a better C-index in the training cohort [0.74 (0.68-0.80) vs. 0.66 (0.60-0.73), P = 0.017] and in the validation cohort [0.78 (0.70-0.86) vs. 0.60 (0.49-0.71), P = 0.002] than the nomogram B (without 2D SWE). Using risk score developed from nomogram A, we successfully predicted 88.0% (22/25) of patients in the training cohort and 75.0% (9/12) in the validation cohort to have survival time of less than 12 months after KPE. CONCLUSION The combined nomogram model based on 2D SWE values, age, GGT and APRI prior to KPE can effectively predict NLS in BA infants.

Abstract
Renal ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is a common issue in urological surgery, and the renal tubules, particularly the proximal tubules, are extremely vulnerable to IR injury. In this work, we detected the differently expressed genes (DEGs) between normal rabbit kidneys and IR kidneys by RNA-sequencing, then identified that matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP7) played an important role in the progress of IR injury. Indeed, A time-dependent promotion of renal injury was detected in rabbit model, as demonstrated by the increased levels of MMP2/7/9, and the decreased of tight junction protein-1 (TJP1). Furtherly, similar results were confirmed in human renal proximal tubule epithelial (HK-2) cells model. Notably, downregulation of MMP7 affected the activity of MMP2/9 by suppressing expression of cleaved-MMP2/9 not the pro-MMP2/9 protein, which directly alleviated the degradation of TJP1 in HK-2 model. On the contrary, MMP7 had not been affected by inhibiting MMP2/9. In addition, coimmunoprecipitation assay showed that knockdown MMP7 restrained the interaction between MMP2/9 and TJP1. Collectively, this study suggested that MMP7 could serve as early biomarkers for renal tubular injury, and revealed that MMP7 could destroy the integrity of tubular epithelium through degrading TJP1 by activating MMP2/9.

Abstract
There is no consensus on immunosuppression management for kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) with SARS‐CoV‐2 pneumonia. Therefore, we conducted a search in English database from October 2019 to July 2020 and extracted data from cases with treatment details worldwide, and total of 41 recipients with a median age of 50 years were enrolled in this study. Most of them were males (75.8%). The most common presenting symptoms were fever (80.5%), cough (63.4%), and fatigue (41.5%). Patients were classified into three catalogs according to severity of pneumonia: 17 (41.5%) were mild, 15 (36.6%) severe, and 9 (21.9%) critical disease. Laboratory tests revealed that serum creatinine of critical patients was significantly higher than that of mild or severe patients. 68.3% received oxygen support; all patients received antiviral therapy, and 15 (36.6%) recipients were additionally treated with intravenous immunoglobulin and interferon‐α. 19.5% of patients maintained immunosuppressive therapy; 36.6% suspended antimetabolite; and 43.9% only treated with corticosteroid. Six (14.6%) patients died (severe: 2, critical: 4); high creatinine with low lymphocyte count was the biggest challenge of immunosuppression management. In all, it is necessary to pay close attention to renal function and lymphocyte count in KTRs infected with COVID‐19 and choose appropriate medication programs according to the specific situations.

Abstract
Hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury (HIRI) is a complex pathophysiological process that often leads to poor clinical prognosis. Clinically, the effective means to alleviate HIRI are limited. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether Alda-1, an activator of mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), had a protective effect on HIRI and to investigate the mechanisms underlying this protective effect. Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with Alda-1 or Daidzin, an ALDH2 inhibitor, 30 min before partial (70%) warm liver ischemia to induce HIRI. The 48 rats were randomly divided into four groups: Sham, ischemia injury (IR), IR-Alda-1, and IR-Daidzin. After 6 and 24 h of reperfusion, serum and liver tissue samples were collected and stored for further experiments. Alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase and hematoxylin & eosin staining was used to evaluate the liver damage. Western blotting and reverse transcription-quantitative PCR were used to detect the expression of related proteins and mRNA. TUNEL staining was used to observe the apoptosis of liver cells. Transmission electron microscopy was used to detect the mitochondrial injuries. Alda-1 pretreatment ameliorated the HIRI-induced damage to the liver function and reduced histological lesions. Alda-1 also increased ALDH2 activity after HIRI. Moreover, the pretreatment with Alda-1 reduced the accumulation of toxic aldehyde 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, decreased the production of reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde, reversed the damage to the liver mitochondria, attenuated hepatocyte apoptosis and inhibited the HIRI-induced inflammatory response, including high-mobility group box 1/toll-like receptor 4 signaling. Alda-1 also induced autophagy by upregulating autophagy-related 7 and Rab7 increasing the microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 αII/I ratio and inhibiting p62 expression. ALDH2-induced autophagy was dependent on the activation of the AKT/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathways. In conclusion, the findings of the present study suggested that Alda-1 may protect the liver against HIRI-induced damage, including hepatic enzyme injury, acetaldehyde accumulation, oxidative stress, hepatocyte apoptosis and inflammation. Alda-1 may confer this protection by inducing autophagy through the AKT/mTOR and AMPK signaling pathways. Therefore, ALDH2 could represent a potential pharmacological target in the clinical treatment of HIRI.

Abstract
Over 1 000 000 cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have been confirmed since the worldwide outbreak began. Not enough data on infected solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients are available, especially data about the management of immunosuppressants. We report two cases of COVID-19 in two transplant recipients, with different treatments and prognoses. The first patient received liver transplantation due to hepatitis B virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma and was confirmed to have COVID-19 9 days later. Following a treatment regimen consisting of discontinued immunosuppressant use and low-dose methylprednisolone-based therapy, the patient developed acute rejection but eventually recovered. The other patient had undergone a renal transplant from a living-related donor 17 years ago, and was admitted to the hospital because of persistent fever. This patient was also diagnosed with COVID-19. His treatment regimen consisted of reduced immunosuppressant use. No signs of rejection were observed during the regimen. In the end, the patient successfully recovered from COVID-19. These effectively treated cases can provide a basis for immunosuppressant management of COVID-19-positive SOT recipients.

Abstract
Excessive bleeding due to trauma, surgery and diseases may cause severe mortalities. Here, an emerging chitin nanogel/rectorite nanocomposite is developed for effective hemorrhage control. Chitin chains are intercalated into rectorite and subsequent mechanical high speed stirring generates chitin nanogels, which assemble on the surface of the rectorite nanoplates through electrostatic interactions to form a sandwich structure. The in vitro experiments reveal that the nanocomposite exhibits favorable biocompatibility and negligible hemolysis (<3.5%) as compared to rectorite (40%). The nanocomposite stops bleeding in 121 s in rat tail incision and exhibits higher hemostatic activity in the rabbit artery injury model as compared to a commercialized chitosan hemostat, Celox. The efficient blood clotting activity is attributed to the induction of a coagulation cascade by rectorite and the quick adsorption and aggregation of platelets and red blood cells by chitin. The enhanced biocompatibility and hemostatic activity of the chitin/rectorite nanocomposite make it a safe and cost effective hemostat to control bleeding.

Abstract
Hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) is a method that can be more effective in preserving donor organs compared with cold storage (CS). However, the optimal duration and the exact mechanisms of the protevtive effects of HMP remain unknow. The present study aimed to investigate the adequate perfusion time and mechanisms underlying HMP to protect livers donated after circulatory death (DCD). After circulatory death, adult male Sprague-Dawley rat livers were subjected to 30 min of warm ischemia (WI) and were subsequently preserved by HMP or CS. To determine the optimal perfusion time, liver tissues were analyzed at 0, 1, 3, 5, 12 and 24 h post-preservation to evaluate injury and assess the expression of relevant proteins. WI livers were preserved by HMP or CS for 3 h, and liver viability was evaluated by normothermic reperfusion (NR). During NR, oxygen consumption, bile production and the activities of hepatic enzymes in the perfusate were assessed. Following 2 h of NR, levels of inflammation and oxidative stress were determined in the livers and perfusate. HMP for 3 h resulted in the highest expression of myocyte enhancer factor 2C (MEF2C) and kruppel-like factor 2 (KLF2) and the lowest expression of NF-κB p65, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-1β among the different timepoints, which indicated that 3 h may be the optimal time for HMP induction of the KLF2-dependent signaling pathway. Compared with CS-preserved livers, HMP-preserved livers displayed significantly higher oxygen consumption, lower hepatic enzyme levels in the perfusate following NR. Following HMP preservation, the expression levels of MEF2C, KLF2, endothelial nitric oxide synthase and nitric oxide were increased, whereas the expression levels of NF-κB p65, IL-1β and TNF-α were decreased compared with CS preservation. The results indicated that 3 h may be the optimal time for HMP to protect DCD rat livers. Furthermore, HMP may significantly reduce liver inflammation and oxidative stress injury by mediating the KLF2/NF-κB/eNOS-dependent signaling pathway.

Abstract
Background:Gout is a common kind of inflammatory arthritis with metabolic disorders. The detailed pathogenesis of gout remains largely unknown. Metabolomics has become an important tool in detecting the new pathogenesis and biomarkers. However, few studies have focused on the serum metabolic profiling of gout.Objectives:The study aims to investigate the metabolic profiling of gout patients with ultra-performance liquid chromatograph quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS), and explore the potential pathological mechanisms and biomarkers.Methods:Serum samples from 31 gout patients and 31 healthy controls were analyzed by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS. Principal components analysis (PCA), orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) and Hierarchical clustering analysis were performed to detect different compounds between the two groups. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and pathway analysis of the different metabolites were conducted.Results:A total of 9192 compounds were detected, of which 138 significantly different compounds were selected, according to the criteria of (Variable importance in projection (VIP)>3,P<0.05). Eventually, 96 reliable metabolites matched the HMDB database were confirmed. ROC curve results showed that the area under the curve (AUC) value of 4-hydroxytriazolam for gout was 0.933 (CI95%: 0.875-0.992), yielding a highest AUC value, with the sensitivity of 83.9% and specificity of 93.5%. The pathway analysis results indicated that the significantly different metabolites were mainly involved in “primary bile acid biosynthesis”, “purine metabolism” and “glycerophospholipid metabolism”.Conclusion:The serum metabolic profiling in gout patients were significantly different from healthy subjects. 4-hydroxytriazolam was the potential biomarkers. Primary bile acid biosynthesis may be a novel metabolic pathway of gout.References:[1]Banoei MM, et al. Metabolomics and Biomarker Discovery in Traumatic Brain Injury.

Abstract
Background:The prevalence of gouty patients with ulcerations over tophi are increasing over time and it has been reported that gouty patients have significantly poor quality of life (QoL) compared to those healthy controls. [1, 2] there is no study on comparison of the QoL in patients with or without ulceration over tophi.Objectives:To compare the QoL in gout patients with or without ulcerations over tophi.Methods:A total of 79 inpatients with gout who were admitted to Guangdong Second Provincial General Hospital from January 2019 to January 2020 were included. Among them, ulcerations were identified in 28 patients. Short Form-36 Scales (SF-36) were chosen to assess patients. Differences between the groups were tested with Student’s t test or Mann-Whitney U test for continuous variables, and Chi-square tests for categorical variables.Results:Of 79 subjects, 74 were male, mean age was 54.23±14.3 years, disease duration was 10.94±7.06 years. Gouty patients had moderate- to high-quality levels in general health, vitality, social functioning, role emotional, and mental health (median: 65, 75, 75, 88, and88, respectively), while had low levels of quality in role physical, and bodily pain (median: 0, and 22, respectively). Patients presenting with ulcerations over tophi had worse scores on five SF-36 domains, the mental component summary (MCS) and the physical component summary (PCS) than gout patients without ulcerations [mean (SD); P < 0.05 for all]: Bodily pain, 30.86(31.59) vs 35.17(33.40); General health, 49.46(27.01) vs 64.17(23.69); Vitality, 57.14(32.53) vs 72.84(26.38); Mental health, 75.4(22.43) vs 83.05(20.96); Reported health transition, 3.58(0.89) vs 3.78(1.42); MCS, 52.62(21.82) vs 66.65(21.44); PCS, 35.85(21.17) vs 46.67(23.86).Conclusion:Patients with ulcerations over tophi present much worse QoL compared those without ulcerations. Our study suggests that the presence of ulceration over tophi further deteriorates the QoL in gout patients.References:[1]Z. Huang, X. Liu, Y.

Abstract
Background:Compliance to urate-lowering therapy (ULT) is poor in gout patients, which contributes to increased frequency of acute gout attacks, deposition of tophi and urate nephropathy [1]. Optimistic status is probably a potential and considerable factor affecting compliance to ULT in gout patients.Objectives:To compare optimistic status between gout patients and healthy controls, and also between gout patients with good and poor compliance. Relationship between optimistic status and compliance to ULT, sUA target achievement of gout patients were assessed as well.Methods:This was a monocentric and observational study which was performed from August 2018 to December 2019. Adult patients who met the 2015 gout classification criteria were included in this study. The healthy controls were individuals who were free of gout, hyperuricemia and other rheumatic diseases from the physical examination center of our hospital. Demographic data, including age, gender and education were collected from all individuals. Serum uric acid (sUA) were collected from gout patients at enrollment and again after 3 months. Disease duration of gout, visual analogue scale (VAS) of pain were also assessed for gout patients at enrollment. Compliance to ULT was measured using the medication possession ratio (MPR) in the following 3 months. Poor compliance was defined as MPR<0.8 and good compliance was defined as MPR≥0.8. All subjects completed the life orientation test-revised (LOT-R) for optimistic status assessment.Results:Five hundred and thirty gout patients and 307 healthy controls matched by age (41.4±12.3 vs. 42.1±9.3 years), gender (male 97.1% vs. 95.1%) and education (college graduated 54.2% vs. 58.0%) were included in this study. Of the 530 gout patients, the mean disease duration was 5.7±4.9 years, and 292 (55.1%) patients’ MPR were lower than 0.8. There was no statistic difference in LOT-R between gout patients and healthy controls (19.0±2.4 vs. 19.2±2.5, P>0.05) (Table 1). Gout patients with poor compliance (MPR<0.8) had higher level of sUA (525.5±138.0 vs. 471.2±152.5 μmol/L, P<0.05), followup sUA (450.1±154.5 vs. 361.6±120.0 μmol/L, P<0.05) and higher LOT-R (19.6±2.6 vs. 17.8±1.7, P<0.05) than those with good compliance (MPR≥0.8). Of the 292 gout patients with poor compliance, there were only 83 (28.4%) patients achieved sUA target after 3 months, and their LOT-R were significantly lower than those did not achieve sUA target (18.8±2.1 vs. 19.6±2.4, P<0.05). Finally, LOT-R correlated positively with sUA (r=0.131, P<0.05) and followup sUA (r=0.09, P<0.05), but negatively with MPR (r=-0.473, P<0.05) of gout patients (Table 2).Table 1Demographic and optimistic status of gout patients and healthy controlsVariablesGout patients(n=530)Controls(n=307)PAge (years)41.4±12.342.1±9.30.116Male gender, n (%)511 (96.4)292 (95.1)0.368College graduated, n (%)287 (54.2)178 (58.0)0.312LOT-R19.0±2.419.2±2.50.189LOT-R:life orientation test-revisedTable 2Correlation analysis between LOT-R and clinical variables in gout patientsVariablesLOT-RrPAge00.994Disease duration-0.0580.182VAS0.0340.432sUA0.1310.003*Followup sUA0.1260.016*MPR-0.393<0.001*LOT-R: life orientation test-revised,VAS:visual analogue scale,sUA:serum uric acid,MPR:medication possession ratio*P<0.05Conclusion:Gout patients share similar optimistic status to healthy controls.

Abstract
Fibrous chitin dressing (FCD) prepared from a NaOH-urea aqueous solution of chitin via a physical process was used to study its effect on wound healing using a full-thickness cutaneous wound model in rats and mice. It was demonstrated that wounds in rats covered with the FCD showed faster collagen (especially type I collagen) growth and speedier healing than those with Gauze (12 days versus 16 days). The ability of FCD to promote wound healing was also observed on wild-type (WT) mice. For MyD88-knockout mice, however, FCD displayed no beneficial but an adverse effect on wound healing: the healing time for wounds treated with FCD was even longer than those treated with gauze. Importantly, in vivo studies indicated that FCD-treated mice, compared to gauze-treated ones, exhibited markedly higher expressions of MyD88, IKBα, TGF-β, P-TβR II, TβR II and P-Smad2/3 in wild-type mice. For MyD88 knockout mice, however, the expressions of those molecules were inhibited and lowered in FCD-treated ones than those treated with gauze. In vitro studies confirmed that chitin increased the expression of TGF-β, P-TβRII and P-Smad2/3 while the expressions of those molecules were significantly inhibited with CD14 antibody (p < 0.05). These results indicated that FCD accelerated wound healing through a MyD88-dependent pathway, followed by a TGF-β/Smad pathway. This work not only demonstrated the superior wound healing effect of chitin-derived dressing, but also provided for the first time the underlying molecular mechanism, further establishing chitin as an important biomedical material for potential clinical applications.

Abstract
The Intrauterine fetal development process is complicated and affected by many regulating factors such as maternal nutritional status, transcription factors and adipokines. Adipokines are kinds of active substances secreted by adipose tissue, including more than 50 kinds of molecules. To explore the correlation between calf birth weights and adipokines including adiponectin, leptin, visfatin, and IGF-1 in cows venous and venous cord blood. Fifty-four healthy multiparous Chinese Holstein cows were used; in which, cows with a calf weight less than 40 kg were included in group A (n=9); those with a calf weight between 40 kg~45 kg were included in group B (n=25) and ≥45 kg were included in group C (n=20), venous blood and cord venous blood was collected. An ELISA kit was used to evaluate the concentration of adiponectin, leptin, visfatin, and IGF-1, correlations between index-index and index-calf birth weight were analysed. In both cows venous and cord venous blood, adiponectin, leptin, visfatin, and IGF-1 levels were significantly correlated with each other (p⟨0.01), and levels of these adipokines in venous blood were significantly higher than cord venous blood (p⟨0.01). Adiponectin, leptin, visfatin, and IGF-1 in venous cord blood were positively correlated with calf birth weights, and significantly correlated with calf birth weights respectively (p⟨0.01). Our study showed that adiponectin, leptin, and IGF-1 were found in venous blood and cord venous blood, and adiponectin, leptin, and IGF-1 in venous and cord venous blood potentially inter-regulated each other; adiponectin, leptin, and IGF-1 in venous blood were not significantly correlated with calf birth weights, while adiponectin, leptin, visfatin, and IGF-1 in venous cord blood were significantly correlated with calf birth weights, respectively.

Abstract
Background Aberrant expression of long noncoding RNAs are implicated in the pathogenesis of human malignancies. LINC00844 expression is dramatically downregulated in prostate cancer, and functional studies have revealed the association between the aberrant expression of LINC00844 and prostate cancer cell invasion and metastasis. However, the function and mechanism of action of LINC00844 in the pathogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are poorly understood. Methods LINC00844 and N-Myc downstream-regulated 1 (NDRG1) expression in HCC tissues and cell lines was detected with real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and western blot analysis. Correlations between LINC00844 expression level and clinicopathological features were investigated using the original data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. HepG2 and HCCLM9 cell lines were transfected with Lv-LIN00844 virus to obtain LINC00844-overexpressing cell lines. Cell proliferation and cell invasion and migration were examined with the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and transwell assay, respectively. Furthermore, the correlation between LINC00844 and NDRG1 expression was analysed using Pearson’s correlation analysis. Results LINC00844 expression was significantly downregulatedin HCC tissues and cell lines, and a statistical correlation was detected between low LINC00844 expression and sex (Female), advanced American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) stage (III + IV), histological grade (G3 + G4), and vascular invasion (Micro and Macro). In vitro experiments showed that LINC00844 overexpression significantly repressed the proliferation, migration, and invasion of HCC cells. NDRG1 expression was higher in HCC tissues and LINC00844 could partly inhibit the expression of NDRG1.

Abstract
Traumatic injury is a major cause of mortality, and poor wound healing affects millions of people. Thus, the development of effective wound dressings is essential for speeding up wound healing and decreasing mortality. In this study, a suspension of carboxylated brown algae cellulose nanofibers (BACNFs) with a high aspect ratio was freeze dried to prepare a sponge. The sponge showed high porosity and water absorption capacity; thus, it can absorb wound exudates when used as a wound dressing. In addition, quaternized β-chitin (QC) with antibacterial properties was intercalated into the interlayer space of the organic rectorite (OREC) via electrostatic interactions to obtain composite suspensions (QCRs) with improved antimicrobial activity compared to that of QC alone. Subsequently, the BACNF sponge was soaked in the QCR suspension to absorb QCRs via electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding from which cellulose nanofiber/quaternized chitin/organic rectorite composite (BACNF/QCR) sponges were constructed via freeze-drying. The in vivo animal tests demonstrated that the BACNF/QCR sponges rapidly induced hemostasis in a rat tail amputation test, making them superior to the traditional hemostatic materials. Furthermore, BACNFs/QCRs could substantially promote collagen synthesis and neovascularization, thereby accelerating wound healing 3 days earlier than gauze. This multi-functional biomedical material, fabricated using natural substances, shows great potential to be used for wound healing.

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate whether brain death (BD) induces the activation of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), and reveal the possible association with BD-induced liver cell apoptosis. A total of 30 healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into three groups: Sham-operated group (S), BD group and 4-phenylbutyric acid group (BD + 4-PBA), with 10 rats in each group. All rats were anesthetized. The model of BD was established by inflating a balloon catheter that was placed into the extradural space after anesthesia. 4-PBA was administered via an intraperitoneal injection when the BD model was established. Anesthesia of the S group of rats was maintained for 6 h. Liver tissues were harvested after 6 h of BD. HE staining was used to evaluate the damage of liver. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated 2′-deoxyuridine 5′-triphosphate nick-end labeling staining was used to observe the apoptosis of liver cells. Activation of ERS and PP2A was examined by western blotting and immunohistochemical staining. We reported that the apoptosis of liver cells after BD was significantly promoted than in the S group. Activation of ERS and PP2A was induced in the BD group when compared with S group. Phosphorylation of PP2A was suppressed in BD group. Application of 4-PBA decreased the activation of ERS and apoptosis rate compared with the BD group. In addition, activation of PP2A in the BD + 4-PBA group was decreased due to the reduction of PP2A phosphorylation compared with the BD group, but the levels were higher than in the S group. (P<0.05). In summary, our results indicated that BD induced ERS, then activated PP2A by suppressing the phosphorylation of PP2A, resulting in the apoptosis of liver cells.
