Abstract
Freshly slaughtered carcasses need to be chilled to improve product quality, meat safety, and processing efficiency. This research investigated the effect of subzero saline chilling (SSC) on broiler carcasses with or without prechilling in icy water. Water immersion chilling at 0.5°C (WIC) or SSC at 4% NaCl/-2.41°C (SSC) was a major chilling step. For the combination of pre- and postchilling, the warm water immersion chilling (WWIC) at 10°C was used as prechilling and the WIC as postchilling (WWIC-WIC), and WIC was used as prechilling and the SSC as postchilling (WIC-SSC). The internal temperature of breast fillets was monitored during chilling. Carcasses in a prechiller were transported to a postchiller when their internal temperature reached 15°C. Chilling was completed when the carcass temperature reached 4.4°C or below, and breast fillets were harvested at 3-h postmortem to measure the pH and sarcomere length. Color (L*, a*, and b*) values were evaluated on both breast skin and skinless breast surfaces. Meat tenderness was evaluated using the breast fillets after overnight storage and cooking to an internal temperature of 76°C. The carcasses in the SSC and WIC-SSC showed shorter chilling times (85-91 min) than those (100-144 min) of WIC and WWIC-WIC. A higher chilling yield was observed for the carcasses in WIC-SSC, and a lower cooking yield was seen for the carcasses in WWIC-WIC than other chilling methods (P < 0.05). The breast fillets of broilers in the SSC and WIC-SSC showed lower shear forces and longer sarcomere length than the WIC and WWIC-WIC. No difference was found for L* and a* values, while lower b* value was observed in the SSC than the other chilling methods (P < 0.05). Based on these results, chilling of broiler carcasses in the SSC (4% NaCl/-2.41°C) with or without prechilling in WIC at 0.5°C significantly improved chilling efficiency and meat tenderness, with minor color changes on carcasses.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to explore the stress distribution of surface-mounted inlays with two ceramic materials and different strategies for fiber post-restoration on pulp-penetrating non-carious cervical lesion in a maxillary first premolar to provide minimally invasive and reasonable restorative methods. METHODS The cone beam computed tomography data of the standard right upper first premolar were selected. Healthy control (HC) and defective control (DC) finite element models were established. Then, eight experimental models were established according to two different ceramic materials (IPS e.max CAD [LD] and Lava Ultimate [LU]) and different locations of fiber post (without fiber post [NP], fiber post in buccal root canal [B], fiber post in palatal root canal [P], fiber post in both root canals [BP]), namely, LDNP, LDB, LDP, LDBP, LUNP, LUB, LUP, and LUBP. Axial load F1 and lateral load F2 were applied. Maximum principal stress and displacement of the buccal tip were investigated using finite element analysis software. Then, the percentage change of the following indicators in each experimental group was analyzed: stress of defective tip with group DC, stress of enamel and dentine, and displacement of buccal tips with group HC. It was considered similar when the percentage change was less than 5%. RESULTS LD and LU groups could effectively reduce the stress of the defective tip, but the decreasing amplitude in the former was greater than that of the latter. For the stress of surface-mounted inlays and resin adhesive layer, LD groups were higher than LU groups, and no significant difference in stress peak was found among different experimental groups in the same material. In addition, fiber posts in double root canals could significantly reduce buccal tip displacement. CONCLUSIONS For pulp-penetrating non-carious cervical lesions, the restorative strategy of surface-mounted inlays could be applied. Compared with Lava Ultimate, IPS e.max CAD could better protect the defective tip tooth. Furthermore, fiber posts in double root canals could decrease overall deformation and increase the retention of surface-mounted inlays.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the trueness of 4 three-dimensional (3D) facial scanners and to evaluate the applicability of their clinical use. Methods: An art head model was used as the scanning object, and it was scanned by Handyscan 3D scanner in an enclosed environment with a fixed light source to obtain the reference digital model. Three fixed 3D facial scanners (A: 3dMDface; B: Facego Pro; C: RDS Facescan) and a portable hand-held 3D facial scanner (D: Revopoint POP 2) were used to scan the art head model 10 times, and 10 models of each scan group were obtained. The face of the reference model was divided into 16 regions according to anatomy and muscle distributions in the Geomagic Wrap software with saved boundary curves of whole face and each region. The test models were also divided into 16 regions through the curves above after registered with the reference model through "Best fit" function. The root-mean-square error (RMS) of the complete test models and their segmented regions compared with the reference model and its corresponding regions were calculated by 3D comparison function. The smaller the RMS, the higher the accuracy. One-way ANOVA and SNK post-test were used for statistical analysis. Results: RMS of complete test models scanned by A, B, C, D scanners were (0.295±0.005), (0.216±0.053), (0.059±0.012) and (0.103±0.026) mm (F=123.81, P<0.001), respectively. There was significant difference between any two groups (P<0.05). For each facial region, the group D had the best trueness in nasal region, lip region, left orbital region and right orbital region [RMS were (0.079±0.032), (0.061±0.019), (0.058±0.021), (0.081±0.032) mm, respectively], while the group C had the best trueness in frontal region, left buccal region, right buccal region, left zygomatic region, right zygomatic region, left parotideomasseteric region, right parotideomasseteric region, left temporofacial region, right temporofacial region, mental region, left infraorbital region and right infraorbital region [RMS were (0.039±0.011), (0.034±0.007), (0.033±0.007), (0.066±0.023), (0.038±0.022), (0.070±0.030), (0.067±0.024), (0.063±0.029), (0.045±0.023), (0.063±0.006), (0.039±0.010), (0.046±0.008) mm, respectively]. Conclusions: On the basis of art head model scanning, although the overall average deviation between the scanning model and the reference models obtained by the four kinds of 3D facial scanners were small, the portable handheld 3D facial scanner (D) has better accuracy than the fixed 3D facial scanners (A, B, C) in the orbital area, nasal area, lip area and areas with rich features.

Abstract
In recent years, the diagnosis and treatment of gynecologic cancer have entered a new era with the development of precision medicine. The diagnosis and treatment modes for ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, and endometrial cancer are constantly adjusted. The application of molecular targeted drugs and the progress of surgical concepts and technology have greatly improved the survival of patients with ovarian cancer. Immunotherapy and targeted therapy have become a new hot spot in the treatment of cervical cancer. More clinical research data have been accumulated on the comparison of laparoscopic and open radical hysterectomy in cervical cancer. The surgical management of endometrial cancer has been improved, and molecular diagnostics are increasingly used to guide the diagnosis and treatment of endometrial cancer. Meanwhile, it's necessary to realize the limitations and challenges of precision medicine in gynecologic cancer.

Background/Introduction: Congestive heart failure (CHF), the main reason for morbidity and mortality, is considered a serious consequence of myocardial infarction (MI). The use of left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) as a chief indicator of CHF becomes limited because of the possible impairment of cardiac function and induced aortic valve damage during its recording. Echocardiography is the gold standard approach to diagnose structural myocardial dysfunction. However, its ability to predict chronic CHF following MI is still limited. Recently, intraventricular pressure gradient (IVPG) was presented as a non-invasive, highly sensitive preload-independent diastolic function parameter to assess cardiac function, especially during cardiomyopathy. However, there have not been any investigations demonstrating the feasibility of IVPG in the evaluation of post-infarction chronic CHF.
Purpose
This study aimed to investigate the utility of IVPG to assess the heart function in a rat model with chronic CHF following MI with evaluating its capacity to predict these changes.
Methods
Fifty male rats were included. MI was induced via ligation of the left anterior descending artery (LAD) at the level of the atrioventricular junction (MI animals, n = 35). Sham animals were subjected to the same left thoracotomy procedure without LAD ligation (Sham animals, n = 15). Transthoracic conventional echocardiography and colour M-mode echocardiography (CMME) for IVPG were performed in all animals 6 months post-surgery. The next day, animals were anesthetized, ventilated, and euthanized after the recording of hemodynamics. The heart weight, and lung and liver wet-to-dry weight ratios were recorded. J-tree cluster-analysis was performed based on ten echocardiographic variables indicative of CHF.
Results
Based on the cluster analysis, animals were joined into two clusters; CHF+ (n = 22) and named MI/HF+, and CHF- (n = 28) that was joined from sham (n = 15), and MI/HF- (n = 13). MI/HF+ presented the most severe anatomical and echocardiographic changes indicative of CHF with significant reduction of all IVPG indices and impairment of the hemodynamics. The IVPG indices were significantly (P< 0.0001) correlated with the anatomical and echocardiographic findings, LVDP, LVEDP, HR, -dP/dtmin, and Tau. Meanwhile, LVSP was only significantly correlated with apical IVPG (R = 0.677, P = 0.022). dP/dtmax was significantly correlated with total IVPG, basal IVPG, and apical IVPG (R = 0.797, P = 0.017, R = 0.724, P = 0.003, and R = 0.652, P = 0.026 ; respectively). Moreover, total, basal, mid-to-apical, mid-, and apical IVPG were significant (P< 0.0001) predictors of chronic CHF following MI.
Conclusion
Compared to the structural, and functional indices of conventional echocardiography, IVPG derived from CMME could provide a substantial non-invasive tool to diagnose and predict CHF after long-term MI.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the safety and complications of two methods of establishing retroperitoneal cavity in urology. Methods: Totally 83 patients undergoing retroperitoneal laparoscopic surgery in Department of Urology, Shanxi Bethune Hospital from January 2020 to June 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 47 males and 36 females, aged (48.3±11.3) years (range: 35 to 71 years). Forty-three cases in Hasson group(the first Trocar channel was selected at the junction of the 12th rib and the posterior axillary line or lumbar triangle), 40 cases in modified Hasson group(the first Trocar channel is selected at 1.5 cm above the iliac crest on the mid-axillary line). The t test, χ² test, and Fisher exact test were used to compare the surgical safety indicators and complications of the two groups of patients. Results: There was no statistical difference between the two groups in gender, age, body mass index, waist length, and height (P>0.05). The comparison of safety indicators, included the time from skin incision to establishment of the retroperitoneal cavity and the amount of bleeding from the cavity were statistical difference between the two groups (P<0.05). Compared to that in Hasson group, the time from skin incision to establishment of the abdominal cavity in modified Hasson group was shorter ((8.56±2.64) minutes vs. (5.32±1.36) minutes, t=6.949, P<0.01), the blood loss of establishment was less ((15.32±6.09) ml vs. (9.85±3.55) ml, t=4.951, P<0.01). In terms of complication indicators, the incidence of Trocar hernia and the number of subcutaneous emphysema in modified Hasson group were lower than that in Hasson group (20.9% (9/43) vs. 2.5% (1/40), P=0.015, 18.6% (8/43) vs. 2.5% (1/40), P=0.030). Conclusions: The modified Hasson group is a safe method of establishing retroperitoneal cavity. The technique is simple and fast. It provides urologists with a more effective and easy-to-implement option with fewer complications.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical features and prognostic influencing factors of toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted. From January 2008 to March 2019, a total of 46 TEN patients who met the inclusion criteria were admitted to Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital. The gender, age, and hospital admission diagnosis of the 46 patients, the category of department admitted of patients complicated with sepsis, death ratio of the sepsis patients with or without treatment history in intensive care unit (ICU)/department of burns and wound repair, and the cause of death of the deceased patients were recorded. Depending on whether complicated with sepsis, the patients were divided into sepsis group (32 cases) and non-sepsis group (14 cases). According to whether died or not, the patients were divided into death group (9 cases) and survival group (37 cases). The specific conditions of suspected pathogenic agents and combined underlying diseases, the abnormality of transaminase/bilirubin, creatinine, and platelet count in blood on admission, and the detection of pathogenic microorganisms and drug resistance during the course of disease of patients were recorded in both sepsis group and non-sepsis group. The gender, age, lesion area, severity of illness score for TEN (SCORTEN) system score, combined underlying diseases on admission, and blood microbial culture positivity, hormone use, and gamma globulin use during the course of disease of patients between sepsis group and non-sepsis group, death group and survival group were compared respectively. Data were statistically analyzed with chi-square test, Fisher's exact probability test, and Mann-Whitney U test. The factors with statistically significant differences between sepsis group and non-sepsis group, death group and survival group were selected for binary multivariate logistic regression analysis, so as to screen the independent risk factors affecting sepsis and death in TEN patients. Results: Of the 46 TEN patients, 30 were male and 16 were female, aged from 8 months to 92.0 years, with 11 cases (23.91%) of epidermolysis bullosa, 9 cases (19.57%) of exfoliative dermatitis, 9 cases (19.57%) of TEN, 7 cases (15.22%) of epidermolysis bullosa, 6 cases (13.04%) of Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and 4 cases (8.70%) of severe drug rash for hospital admission diagnosis. The patients complicated with sepsis were admitted to 11 departments, and the death ratio of patients with treatment history in ICU/department of burns and wound repair was similar to that of patients without such department treatment history (P>0.05). All the deceased patients were complicated with sepsis, which was also the main cause of death. On admission, the suspected pathogenic agents of patients in sepsis group were mainly allopurinol (8 cases) and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (4 cases), while those in non-sepsis group were allopurinol (3 cases) and psychotropic drugs (3 cases). Patients in sepsis group combined as many as 10 underlying diseases, while those in non-sepsis group combined only 4 underlying diseases. The proportions of patients with increased creatinine (χ2=13.349, P<0.01) and decreased platelet count (P<0.01) in sepsis group were significantly higher than those in non-sepsis group, while the transaminase/bilirubin abnormality was similar to that in non-sepsis group (P>0.05). A wide variety of pathogens were detected in the blood, respiratory tract secretions, and skin secretions of 21 patients in sepsis group, and 14 patients were infected with drug-resistant bacteria; among the 9 strains cultured from the blood samples, 8 were drug-resistant bacteria and 6 were Gram-positive bacteria. In non-sepsis group, pathogens were detected in blood, respiratory tract secretions, and skin secretions of 8 patients, with fewer species, and 6 patients were infected with drug-resistant bacteria. The gender, age, lesion area, blood microbial culture positivity, hormone use, and gamma globulin use of patients in sepsis group were similar to those in non-sepsis group (P>0.05). The proportion of patients combined with underlying diseases (χ2=4.493, P<0.05) and the proportion of patients with SCORTEN system score of 4-6 points (P<0.01) of patients in sepsis group were significantly higher than those in non-sepsis group. The gender, combined underlying diseases, lesion area, blood microbial culture positivity, hormone use, and gamma globulin use of patients were similar between survival group and death group (P>0.05). The proportion of patients with age≥60 years and the proportion of patients with SCORTEN system score of 4-6 points of patients in death group were significantly higher than those in survival group (χ2=4.412, 11.627, P<0.05 or P<0.01). The SCORTEN system score was an independent risk factor affecting sepsis and death in TEN patients (odds ratio=3.025, 2.757, 95% confidence interval=1.352-6.769, 1.244-6.110, P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusions: The diagnosis of TEN is difficult on admission. Male population is susceptible to TEN, and allopurinol is the common pathogenic agent. The proportion of patients combined with underlying diseases is high in TEN patients complicated with sepsis, with mainly drug-resistant bacteria and mostly Gram-positive bacteria in blood-borne infections. The deceased patients are older than the survived, and the main cause of death is sepsis. The SCORTEN system score is an independent risk factor affecting sepsis and death in TEN patients.

Abstract
Due to the poor conductivity of Fe based, Cu based and Co based electrode materials commonly used in the electrochemical detection of glucose, and the uneven stirring and poor conductivity of the traditional preparation method based on glassy carbon electrode. In order to solve the above problems, in this work, CdIn2O4with high electrical conductivity was directly grown on three-dimensional (3D) Ni foam to prepare electrode materials for non-enzymatic glucose sensors. CdIn2O4nanoparticles is prepared from cadmium acetate and indium nitrate hydrate in benzyl alcohol by non-aqueous sol-gel method. The electrocatalytic oxidation performances of CdIn2O4electrode material for non-enzymatic glucose are studied. The results show that the proposed CdIn2O4electrode material has good electrochemical properties and sensing performance for glucose detection. The electrochemical response of CdIn2O4electrode material to glucose is recorded that calibration plot for glucose concentrations ranging from 1.0μM to 1.0 mM (R2 = 0.99), a limit detection of 0.08μM, an excellent sensitivity of 3.2925 mA.mM-1.cm-2, a rapid response time of 1.58 s, a good selectivity and a good long-term stability. These demonstrate the significant potential of CdIn2O4electrode material based on 3D Ni foam as non-enzymatic glucose sensors, which makes it possible to use it as a practical glucose detector. This work could introduce a new concept of nanoparticles modified electrode material grown directly on 3D Ni foam, thus a simple and reliable electrochemical glucose sensor platform is realized. This study was completed in 2019 in the school of materials and energy, Yunnan University.

Abstract
In this work, an efficient and stable fluorescent probe for Al3+was established. The fluorescent probe based on the fluorescence 'turn-on' mode of zinc sulfide crystal composite zinc oxide quantum dots (ZnS/ZnO QDs). The ZnS/ZnO QDs were synthesized via two-step method using L-Cysteine (L-Cys) as a sulfur source and stabilizer. In the synthesis of ZnS/ZnO QDs, the fluorescence of zinc oxide quantum dots (ZnO QDs) decreased and its stability increased in aqueous solution after the addition of L-Cys. In addition, the as-synthesized ZnS/ZnO QDs shows fluorescent enhancement to Al3+. The ZnS/ZnO QDs based fluorescence 'turn-on' probe presented wide linear ranges (1 nM-8μM and 8-100μM). The availability of as-established sensing probe was also estimated by real water sample tests. Furthermore, the fluorescent enhancing mechanism was carried out by recording the fluorescent lifetime of samples, which might be related to the QDs dispersion and charge transfer weaken.

Abstract
Effectively and quantificationally detecting hazardous gas n-butanol is very significant in daily life, which can bring about a safe living condition for humans. In this study, the one-dimensional In2O3nanorods were successfully synthesized via hydrothermal route and post-heat treatment. Noticeably, one-dimensional nanorods structures were obtained and the products presented a superior growth orientation along with (222) plane. Additionally, systematical gas-sensing measurements of the sensor made from In2O3nanorods towards hazardous n-butanol gas were conducted. Results exhibited that the fabricated sensor showed excellent n-butanol sensing properties, with aspects to a superior response value of 342.20 with concentration 100 ppm at 240 °C, remarkable selectivity, fast response/recovery times (77.5/34.2 s) and good stability. More interestingly, the detection limit of sensor as low as 500 ppb and a good linearity relationship between response values and n-butanol concentrations was presented. Gas-sensitive properties of this sensor are better than previously reported in n-butanol detection. All results demonstrate that one-dimensional In2O3nanorod is a promising sensor material to practical applications in effectively detecting n-butanol gas.

Abstract
Objective: Transanal total mesorectal excision (taTME) was a very hot topic in the first few years since its appearance, but now more introspections and controversies on this procedure have emerged. One of the reasons why the Norwegian Ministry of Health stopped taTME was the high incidence of postoperative anastomotic leak. In current study, the incidence and risk factors of anastomotic leak after taTME were analyzed based on the data registered in the Chinese taTME Registry Collaborative (CTRC). Methods: A case-control study was carried out. Between November 15, 2017 and December 31, 2020, clinical data of 1668 patients undergoing taTME procedure registered in the CTRC database from 43 domestic centers were collected retrospectively. After excluding 98 cases without anastomosis and 109 cases without complete postoperative complication data, 1461 patients were finally enrolled for analysis. There were 1036 males (70.9%) and 425 females (29.1%) with mean age of (58.2±15.6) years and mean body mass index of (23.6±3.8) kg/m(2). Anastomotic leak was diagnosed and classified according to the International Study Group of Rectal Cancer (ISREC) criteria. The risk factors associated with postoperative anastomotic leak cases were analyzed. The impact of the cumulative number of taTME surgeries in a single center on the incidence of anastomotic leak was evaluated. As for those centers with the number of taTME surgery ≥ 40 cases, incidence of anastomic leak between 20 cases of taTME surgery in the early and later phases was compared. Results: Of 1461 patients undergoing taTME, 103(7.0%) developed anastomotic leak, including 71 (68.9%) males and 32 (31.1%) females with mean age of (59.0±13.9) years and mean body mass index of (24.5±5.7) kg/m(2). The mean distance between anastomosis site and anal verge was (2.6±1.4) cm. Thirty-nine cases (37.9%) were classified as ISREC grade A, 30 cases (29.1%) as grade B and 34 cases (33.0%) as grade C. Anastomotic leak occurred in 89 cases (7.0%,89/1263) in the laparoscopic taTME group and 14 cases (7.1%, 14/198) in the pure taTME group. Multivariate analysis showed that hand-sewn anastomosis (P=0.004) and the absence of defunctioning stoma (P=0.013) were independently associated with anastomotic leak after taTME. In the 16 centers (37.2%) which performed ≥ 30 taTME surgeries with cumulative number of 1317 taTME surgeries, 86 cases developed anastomotic leak (6.5%, 86/1317). And in the 27 centers which performed less than 30 taTME surgeries with cumulative number of 144 taTME surgeries, 17 cases developed anastomotic leak (11.8%, 17/144). There was significant difference between two kinds of center (χ(2)=5.513, P=0.019). Thirteen centers performed ≥ 40 taTME surgeries. In the early phase (the first 20 cases in each center), 29 cases (11.2%, 29/260) developed anastomotic leak, and in the later phase, 12 cases (4.6%, 12/260) developed anastomotic leak. The difference between the early phase and the later phase was statistically significant (χ(2)=7.652, P=0.006). Conclusion: The incidence of anastomotic leak after taTME may be reduced by using stapler and defunctioning stoma, or by accumulating experience.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Exposure to environmental pollutants such as diesel exhaust particles (DEP) increases the risk of asthma and asthma exacerbation. However, the exact mechanisms inducing asthma to low doses of allergens remain poorly understood. The present study aimed to analyse the immunomodulatory effect of the inhalation of DEP in a mouse model exposed to non-asthmagenic doses of soybean hull extract (SHE). MATERIAL AND METHODS BALB/c ByJ mice were randomly divided into four experimental groups. Two groups received nasal instillations of saline and the other two groups received 3 mg ml-1 SHE during 5 days per week for 3 weeks. One group in each pair also received 150 μg of DEP in the same instillations 3 days per week. SHE-specific IgE levels, oxidative stress, leukocyte pattern and optical projection tomography (OPT) imaging studies were assessed. RESULTS Inhalation of SHE and/or DEP increased levels of H2O2 in BAL, while coexposure to SHE and DEP increased SHE-specific IgE levels in serum. Inhalation of SHE alone increased eosinophils, B cells, total and resident monocytes and decreased levels of NK cells, while inhalation of DEP increased neutrophils and decreased total monocytes. Regarding dendritic cells (DC), the inhalation of SHE and/or DEP increased the total population, while the inhalation of SHE alone increased Th2-related DCs (CD11b + Ly6C-) and decreased tolerogenic DCs (CD11b-Ly6C-). However, coexposure to SHE and DEP increased oxidative stress-sensitive DCs (CD11b-Ly6C+) and decreased Th1-related DCs (CD11b + Ly6C+). As regards macrophages, inhalation of SHE and DEP decreased total and alveolar populations. DEP deposition in lung tissue did not differ between groups. CONCLUSION Coexposure to DEP activates the asthmatic response to low doses of soy by triggering the immune response and oxidative stress.

Abstract
Objectives: Despite recent advances in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), few population-based studies have assessed the mortality rates and the underlying causes of death (UCDs) among patients with RA and RA-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD). This study evaluated the trends in mortality rates, demographic characteristics, and UCDs among patients with RA-ILD.Method: Using data from death certificates (1999-2018) from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Multiple Cause of Death files, we explored the trends in mortality rates and UCD for patients with RA and RA-ILD. Moreover, we examined the crude and age-standardized mortality rates (ASMRs) for such patients.Results: Among patients with RA or RA-ILD, ASMR variation decreased over 20 years. The ASMR ratio of RA-ILD to RA decreased by 5.84%. The ASMR for RA and RA-ILD stratified by gender or age group also decreased. The change in the ASMR ratio of RA-ILD to RA trended downwards in women and upwards in men. Arthropathies and ILD were the most frequent UCDs for RA-ILD, while arthropathies and ischaemic heart disease were the most frequent UCDs for RA.Conclusions: Although RA and RA-ILD presented a downward trend in mortality, RA combined with ILD may reduce life expectancy. Specifically, the mortality rate for patients with RA-ILD remained relatively stable during the study period when ILD was the UCD, suggesting the need for active prevention, early diagnosis, and effective management of RA-ILD.

Abstract
AIM Biomechanical stress plays an essential role in coronary atherosclerosis (CAS), however, inter-relations between mechanical conditions and gene expressions remain unclear. METHODS We constructed finite element model of CAS to map human wall shear stress (WSS). Biopsy aortic tissue samples were obtained from 3 CAS patients. Gene expression pattern in CAS was analyzed by GEO datasets. Immunofluorescence staining and western blot confirmed protein expression and localization. RESULTS Peak WSS was significantly increased in the vessel stenosis of CAS at 0.25 s (mean 55.1 Pa). Analyses results of GSE76275 showed matrix metalloproteinases1 (MMP1) and phosphodiesterase-2A (PDE2A) up-regulation in endothelial shear responsiveness, which was further validated and localized in vascular endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells and other cells by double immunofluorescence staining. Western blotting assay demonstrated up-regulation of MMP1 and PDE2A expression dependent on the WSS. CONCLUSIONS MMP1 and PDE2A up-regulations rely on increased WSS in development and risk of CAS, suggesting that their elevation may be potential target for diagnosis and treatment (Fig. 3, Ref. 28).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of ET-1 and TNF-α levels on cardiac function and prognosis in rats with chronic heart failure (CHF), to provide reference for clinical practice. MATERIALS AND METHODS 120 SD rats were randomly divided into healthy group (n=60) and heart failure group (n=60). Rats from heart failure group were made into CHF models by an intraperitoneal injection of adriamycin. According to the average serum levels of ET-1 and TNF-α, 30 rats with higher level were enrolled in high expression subgroup, while 30 rats with lower level were enrolled in low expression subgroup. The sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was employed to determine the ET-1 and TNF-α in rats from healthy group and heart failure group. Doppler echocardiography was used to measure the left ventricular ejection fraction, heart rate, and aortic diameter. After the death of heart failure rats, the total heart mass and left ventricle mass were measured and compared with those of the healthy rats. The serum levels of ET-1 and TNF-α were monitored to explore the influence of ET-1 and TNF-α levels on the prognosis of rats from study group. RESULTS The total heart mass and left ventricle mass of the heart failure group were higher than those of healthy group (p<0.05). The total heart mass and left ventricle mass of the low expression subgroup were lower than those of high expression subgroup (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The serum levels of ET-1 and TNF-α are higher than those in healthy rats. CHF rats with higher serum levels of ET-1 and TNF-α have a worse heart function and survival. Serum levels of ET-1 and TNF-α can be used as predictors of cardiac function and prognosis in CHF rats, providing references for clinical practice.

Abstract
Microtubules (MT) are critical cytoskeletal filaments that have several functions in cell morphogenesis, cell division, vesicle transport and cytoplasmic separation in the spatiotemporal regulation of eukaryotic cells. Formation of MT requires the co-interaction of MT nucleation and α-β-tubulins, as well as MT-associated proteins (MAP). Many key MAP contributing to MT nucleation and elongation are essential for MT nucleation and regulation of MT dynamics, and are conserved in the plant kingdom. Therefore, the deletion or decrease of γ-tubulin ring complex (γTuRC) components and related MAP, such as the augmin complex, NEDD1, MZT1, EB1, MAP65, etc., in Arabidopsis thaliana results in MT organizational defects in the spindle and phragmoplast MT, as well as in chromosome defects. In addition, similar defects in MT organization and chromosome structure have been observed in plants under abiotic stress conditions, such as under high UV-B radiation. The MT can sense the signal from UV-B radiation, resulting in abnormal MT arrangement. Further studies are required to determine whether the abnormal chromosomes induced by UV-B radiation can be attributed to the involvement of abnormal MT arrays in chromosome migration after DNA damage.

Abstract
AIM Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is characterized by macrophage polarization, and at present, no drug therapy is available. Although grape-seed polyphenols (GSP) showed an anti-AAA effect, the role of GSP in the phenotype shift in macrophages remains unknown. METHOD The main phenolic compounds in GSP were determined by LC-MS. Male C57BL/6 mice were divided into four equal groups, namely sham group, CaPO4 group, CaPO4+GSP low-dose group, and CaPO4+GSP high-dose group. GSP was administered intragastrically after CaPO4 application. Molecular expressions were histologically evaluated and analyzed by various staining assays and FACS. RESULTS GSP administration inhibited CaPO4-induced AAA formation, which correlated with a decrease in macrophage infiltration and retainment of vascular smooth muscle layer as compared to those in the CaPO4 group. FACS assay showed that the GSP administration dose-dependently decreased the CD54 expression (low-dose group: 11.4 ± 2.1 % and high-dose group: 4.8 ± 1.4 % vs 23.2 ± 3.6 %; p < 0.05 and p < 0.01, respectively) and increased the CD206 expression of F4/80-positive cells in GSP-administered groups as compared with that in CaPO4-injured aortas in the CaPO4 group (low-dose group: 22.4 ± 3.3 % and high-dose group: 26.7 ± 4.2 % vs 8.1 ± 1.3 %; p < 0.05 and p < 0.01, respectively). CONCLUSIONS GSP could be a pharmacologically potent agent in the treatment of AAA (Tab. 1, Fig. 3,Ref. 20).

Abstract
Although the pathogenesis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is still unknown, accumulating evidence has revealed that immune response plays a vital part in the pathogenesis. Here, we investigated the involvement of 21 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of immunorelated genes, including cytokines [interleukin (IL)-2, IL-4, IL-9, IL-12A, IL-22, interferon (IFN-α) and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1], transcriptional regulatory genes (TBX21, STAT1, STAT3, STAT5B, STAT6, GATA3, FOXP3 and IRF4) and others (IL2RA, IL6R, NFKBIA) in 269 AML in-patients and 200 healthy controls. Furthermore, we analyzed the relationship between the SNPs and clinical characteristics. Immunorelated SNP genotyping was performed on the Sequenom MassARRAY iPLEX platform. All the SNPs in healthy controls were consistent with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. All final P-values were adjusted by Bonferroni multiple testing. Our results showed that IL-22 (rs2227491) was significantly associated with the white blood cell (WBC) counts. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 5B (STAT-5B) (rs6503691) showed a close relationship with the recurrent genetic abnormalities in patients with AML. We verified the negatively independent effect of age and risk of cytogenetics on overall survival (OS). More importantly, the GG genotype of IL-12A (rs6887695) showed a negative impact on AML prognosis independently. Furthermore, the relative expression of IL-12 was decreased in GG genotype, no matter under a co-dominant or recessive model. However, no correlation was observed between the SNPs mentioned above and disease susceptibility, risk stratification and survival. Our findings suggest that immunorelated gene polymorphisms are associated with prognosis in AML, which may perform as novel inspection targets for AML patients.

Abstract
With the growing attention on ecological environment problems and gradual realization of ecological environment value, environmental damage has jumped from administrative penalty to a new stage, judicial penalty, and environmental damage appraisal has provided a legal weapon to safeguard ecological security. As a new forensic category of China with high comprehensiveness and technical difficulty, environmental damage appraisal involves diversified and complex subjects, fields and appraisal objects, and is still in an early stage in terms of theory and practice. This study aims to provide an important reference for the improvement of the Chinese environmental damage appraisal system of environmental damage by summarizing advanced international experience in areas such as laws and regulations, working mechanism and technical system, and putting forward targeted countermeasures and suggestions based on the problems existing in the development and practice of environmental damage appraisal in China.

Abstract
Babesia rossi is an important, tick-borne intraerythrocytic protozoan parasite; however, its natural history and epidemiology is poorly understood. Babesia rossi is the most virulent Babesia sp. in domestic dogs and is generally considered to cause severe babesiosis, which is fatal if left untreated. However, subclinical infections and mild disease from B. rossi have been reported, although the clinical progression of these cases was not reported. Therefore, to better understand B. rossi under field conditions, we evaluated its clinical progression and seroprevalence in an owned, free-roaming dog population in Zenzele, South Africa, where the parasite is endemic and prevention is not routine. The entire dog population in Zenzele was monitored intensively at the individual level from March 2008 until April 2014, primarily for a longitudinal study on rabies control. Subsequent evaluation of B. rossi comprised analyses of clinical and laboratory data collected from the Zenzele dog population during the 6 year study period. A substantial proportion (31% (n = 34)) of 109 dogs (randomly selected from every available dog in February/March 2010 older than ~6-8 weeks (n = 246)) tested by Indirect Fluorescent Antibody Test had seroconverted strongly to B. rossi. All 34 dogs were generally consistently healthy adults, determined from regular clinical examinations between March 2008 and April 2014. Blood smear examinations at multiple time points between July 2009 and February 2011 were also undertaken for almost all of these (34) seropositive dogs and all those tested were consistently negative for Babesia spp. Subclinical infections and mild disease were also the main findings for a separate group of 18 dogs positive for Babesia spp. on blood smear examination and confirmed to be infected with B. rossi by Polymerase Chain Reaction - Reverse Line Blot. Almost all of these dogs were positive at only one time point from repeat blood smear examinations between July 2009 and February 2011. We suggest that these observations are consistent with immunity acquired from repeated, low-level exposure to the parasite, generating transient subclinical infections or mild disease. Should this be the case, the use of tick control, particularly in adult dogs in free-roaming populations in B. rossi endemic regions, should be carefully considered.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Delirium is common in elderly patients after surgery and is associated with poor outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the impact of intraoperative dexmedetomidine on the incidence of delirium in elderly patients undergoing major surgery.
Methods
This was a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial. Elderly patients (aged 60 years or more) scheduled to undergo major non-cardiac surgery were randomized into two groups. Patients in the intervention group received a loading dose of dexmedetomidine 0·6 μg/kg 10 min before induction of anaesthesia followed by a continuous infusion (0·5 μg per kg per h) until 1 h before the end of surgery. Patients in the control group received volume-matched normal saline in the same schedule. The primary outcome was the incidence of delirium during the first 5 days after surgery. Delirium was assessed with the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) for non-ventilated patients and CAM for the Intensive Care Unit for ventilated patients.
Results
In total, 309 patients who received dexmedetomidine and 310 control patients were included in the intention-to-treat analysis. The incidence of delirium within 5 days of surgery was lower with dexmedetomidine treatment: 5·5 per cent (17 of 309) versus 10·3 per cent (32 of 310) in the control group (relative risk (RR) 0·53, 95 per cent c.i. 0·30 to 0·94; P = 0·026). The overall incidence of complications at 30 days was also lower after dexmedetomidine (19·4 per cent (60 of 309) versus 26·1 per cent (81 of 310) for controls; RR 0·74, 0·55 to 0·99, P = 0·047).
Conclusion
Intraoperative dexmedetomidine halved the risk of delirium in the elderly after major non-cardiac surgery. Registration number: ChiCTR-IPR-15007654 (www.chictr.org.cn).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Xenon (Xe) is a noble gas that has been used for the last several decades as an anesthetic during surgery. Its antagonistic effect on glutamate subtype of NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptors resulted in evaluation of this gas for treatment of CNS pathologies, including psychoemotional disorders. The aim of this study was to assess the behavioral effects of acute inhalation of subanesthetic concentrations of Xe and to study the outcomes of Xe exposure in valproic acid (VPA)-induced rodent model of autism. METHODS We have conducted two series of experiments with a battery of behavioral tests aimed to evaluate locomotion, anxiety- and depression-like behavior, and social behavior in healthy, VPA-treated and Xe-exposed young rats. RESULTS We have shown that in healthy animals Xe exposure resulted in acute and delayed decrease of exploratory motivation, partial decrease in risk-taking and depressive-like behavior as well as improved sensorimotor integration during the negative geotaxis test. Acute inhalations of Xe in VPA-exposed animals led to improvement in social behavior, decrease in exploratory motivation, and normalization of behavior in forced-swim test. CONCLUSION Behavioral modulatory effects of Xe are probably related to its generalized action on excitatory/inhibitory balance within the CNS. Our data suggest that subanesthetic short-term exposures to Xe have beneficial effect on several behavioral modalities and deserves further investigation.

Abstract
ObjectivesPost-weaning transport of pigs was commonly practiced in the swine industry, however, adversely impact animal growth and well-being due to concurrent stress from weaning and transport. Further, our recent study found that post-weaning transport may have long-term effects on final pork quality attributes in terms of inferior texture and water-holding capacity. Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are anti-apoptotic chaperone proteins, protecting against apoptosis under a variety of cell death stimuli including postmortem muscle conversion process. While a potential role of apoptosis in meat tenderization has been proposed, how early life stress influences apoptotic/proteolytic process and metabolism of postmortem muscles is largely unknown. Thus, the study objective was to evaluate apoptotic and proteolytic attributes and metabolomic changes in postmortem muscles of market weight pigs exposed to early life transport/weaning stress at two seasons.Materials and MethodsTwo repetitions of newly weaned pigs (N = 480) were transported for 12 h in a trailer truck during July 2016 (SUMMER) and April 2017 (SPRING) in north-central Indiana. Upon reaching market weight, 10 animals were randomly chosen from each season and slaughtered in January 2017 and September 2017, respectively. Pairs of longissimus dorsi and psoas major muscles from each carcass were separated at 1d and 7d postmortem. Proteolytic and apoptotic factors including desmin, troponin T, calpain 1, HSP27, and aβ-crystallin were quantified using Western-blot assays, and mitochondria membrane permeability (MMP) was evaluated. Metabolome profiles of 1d samples were analyzed using the GC-TOF-MS/MS platform. Multivariate analyses PCA and PLS-DA were used to determine changes of metabolites. Data were analyzed using PROC MIXED of SAS to compare the traits across season, muscle, and aging effects.ResultsPreviously, SUMMER pigs were reported showing decreased body weight, muscling, and fat deposition, as well as increased shear force and water loss during aging. In the present study, SPRING muscles exhibited increases in calpain 1 autolysis and structural protein degradation, coincided with accelerated apoptosis shown as higher MMP compared to the SUMMER counterparts (P < 0.05). Moreover, PCA and PLS-DA clustering indicated distinct metabolome profiles affected by season and muscle. Seasonal effect mainly altered lipid, glucose, and nitrogen metabolism. A group of 16C to 18C fatty acids were increased in SPRING, probably due to increased lipid anabolism during warm growing/finishing season. Changes of urea, ornithine, aspartic acid, and 5’methylthioadenosine suggested increased amino acid catabolism in SUMMER, corroborating the decreased lean and fat accretion. Seasonal changes of key metabolites related to stress response, including histidine, GABA, and ascorbic acid, suggested increased stress defense in SUMMER pigs, which implied the suppression of apoptotic and proteolytic activities.ConclusionTaken together, SUMMER pigs showed suppressed onset of apoptosis with compromised growth and meat quality, possibly due to alternations in seasonal metabolic response. This may in turn affect the proteolytic potential of early postmortem muscles. Further studies elucidating the involvement of apoptotic process in proteolytic activities in postmortem muscles should be warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We explored the possible mechanism underlying the expression change of H19 during fracture healing. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 18 male SD mice aged from 6-8 weeks old (18.5-24.6 g) were selected to establish tibial fracture models. The left tibia undergoing sham surgery was considered as the control group, and the right tibia undergoing sawing treatment was considered as the experimental group. The control tibia and fracture tibia from three mice were harvested at six time points after operation, respectively. QRT-PCR was utilized to detect the changes of H19 and p53 mRNA expression. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the expression of H19 in the experimental group was significantly increased at 4, 8, and 12 d. However, there was no significant difference in the expression of H19 between the experimental group and the control group at 16, 20, and 24 d. The proliferation of chondrocytes and osteoblasts from mouse and human was significantly inhibited, and the apoptosis was significantly increased after interference of H19. As p19 plays important roles in diverse biological process, we detected the expression level of p19 after inference of H19. In addition, knockdown of H19 significantly up-regulated the expression of p53 in osteoblast cell lines, while the down-regulation of p53 expression reversed the proliferation of osteoblasts. CONCLUSIONS H19, as a molecular marker for promoting fracture healing, promote the proliferation of osteocytes by inhibiting the expression of p53.

Abstract
AIM To comparatively evaluate changes in the proliferation and mineralization abilities of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) from juvenile and adult rats in a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory microenvironment to provide a theoretical basis for the age-related differences observed in DPSCs during repair of inflammatory injuries. METHODOLOGY DPSCs were isolated from juvenile (JDPSCs) and adult rats (ADPSCs), and senescence-associated β-galactosidase staining was used to compare senescence between JDPSCs and ADPSCs. Effects of LPS on JDPSCs and ADPSCs proliferation were investigated by cell counting kit-8 assays and flow cytometry. Alizarin red staining, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and Western blot assay were used to examine the effects of LPS on mineralization-related genes and proteins in JDPSCs and ADPSCs. Immunohistochemistry was used to compare interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and osteocalcin (OCN) expression in the pulpitis model. Unpaired Student's t-tests and one-way anova were used for statistical analysis. RESULTS DPSCs were isolated from juvenile and adult rat dental pulp tissues. At low concentrations (0.1-1 μg mL-1 ), LPS significantly promoted the proliferation of JDPSCs (P < 0.01) and ADPSCs (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05), with the effect being stronger in JDPSCs than in ADPSCs. In addition, mineralized nodules and the expression of mineralization-related genes (OCN, DSPP, ALP, BSP) increased significantly after stimulation with LPS (0.5 μg mL-1 ) in JDPSCs and ADPSCs (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05), and JDPSCs displayed a more obvious increase than ADPSCs. Western blots revealed OCN and ALP expression levels in JDPSCs treated with LPS were significantly upregulated (P < 0.05); meanwhile, ALP expression in ADPSCs increased slightly but significantly (P < 0.05), and OCN expression was not affected. Finally, IL-1β expression was significantly higher (P < 0.05) and OCN expression was significantly lower (P < 0.05) in the inflamed dental pulp of adult rats than in juvenile rats. CONCLUSIONS A certain degree of inflammatory stimulation promoted the proliferation and mineralization of DPSCs; however, this effect declined with age. The DPSCs of adult donors in an inflammatory microenvironment have a weaker repair ability than that of juvenile donors, who are better candidates for tissues damage repair.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: All the widely accepted hallmarks of cancer are known to be affected by aberrant splicing (AS), and splicing dysregulation itself is considered a valuable therapeutic target. Understanding the AS that promote cancer progression is crucial for the development of effective strategies for treating breast cancer.
Methods: An in vivo CRISPR screen targeting RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) was performed to reveal the key splicing modulator (PHD finger protein 5A, PHF5A) of breast tumor progression. Immunohistochemistry method and survival analysis were performed using a tissue microarray (TMA) containing 450 breast carcinoma. Proliferation, transwell migration and in vivo tumor formation assays were utilized to assess the biological role of PHF5A. RNA sequencing and RT-PCR assay were used to identify PHF5A-regulated AS events in breast cancer cells. Biological functions and molecular pathways of the affected genes were investigated through a gene ontology (GO) analysis. Flow cytometry and Western blot analysis were used for apoptotic assessments. The correlation between PHF5A expression and AS events was further analysed using mRNA-Seq data of 40 paired breast cancer and adjacent normal breast tissues. And the correlation between the levels of PHF5A and cleaved caspase-3 were evaluated in the TMA.
Results: According to RNA sequencing analysis of MCF10 cell series (MCF10A, MCF10AT, MCF10DCIS and MCF10CA1a), 159 RBPs were found to be up-regulated in cancer cells compared with non-cancer cells. And the CRISPR screen targeting these 159 RBPs systematically identified highest-ranking genes including PHF5A. In TMA cohort, high PHF5A expression was correlated with poor disease-free survival. PHF5A is frequently up-regulated in breast cancer and is essential for cancer cell proliferation, migration and tumor formation. Knockdown of PHF5A induces genome-wide AS events. The RT-PCR assay of MCF10CA1a cells showed that splicing changes of nine arbitrarily selected target genes were all modulated by PHF5A. GO analysis showed that PHF5A-regulated AS events were involved in apoptotic and anti-apoptotic pathways, among which FAS-activated serine/threonine kinase (FASTK) AS showed significant PSI (percent spliced in) difference. PHF5A knockdown appeared to switch full-length FASTK (FASTK-L) to an intron 5-retained variant (herein termed FASTK short, FASTK-S) in MCF10CA1a cells. The knockdown of PHF5A resulted in cleavage of caspase-3 and poly-ADP-ribose polymerase and conversion of the FASTK-L (61 kDa) and FASTK-S (42 kDa) proteins. Intriguingly, cells transduced with exogenous FASTK-S showed the most significant apoptotic effect, whereas the FASTK-L group presented a decreased apoptotic effect. The PHF5A ratios of paired non-tumor to tumor tissue were negatively correlated with the FASTK PSI differences between non-tumor and tumor tissues. A strong negative correlation was found between the PHF5A and cleaved caspase-3 levels in TMA.
Conclusions: PHF5A depletion sensitizes cancer cells to apoptotic signaling partially through AS-mediated FASTK isoform conversion. This apoptotic suppressor plays a key role in breast cancer progression and acts as a prognostic indicator, and should be critically considered for optimization of the current therapeutic strategy.
