Abstract
Probiotics have been proven to improve the growth performance of livestock and poultry. The aim of this experiment was to investigate the effects of probiotic supplementation on the growth performance; rumen and intestinal microbiota; rumen fluid, serum, and urine metabolism; and rumen epithelial cell transcriptomics of fattening meat sheep. Twelve Hu sheep were selected and randomly divided into two groups. They were fed a basal diet (CON) or a basal diet supplemented with 1.5 × 108 CFU/g probiotics (PRB). The results show that the average daily weight gain, and volatile fatty acid and serum antioxidant capacity concentrations of the PRB group were significantly higher than those of the CON group (p < 0.05). Compared to the CON group, the thickness of the rumen muscle layer in the PRB group was significantly decreased (p < 0.01); the thickness of the duodenal muscle layer in the fattening sheep was significantly reduced; and the length of the duodenal villi, the thickness of the cecal and rectal mucosal muscle layers, and the thickness of the cecal, colon, and rectal mucosal layers (p < 0.05) were significantly increased. At the genus level, the addition of probiotics altered the composition of the rumen and intestinal microbiota, significantly upregulating the relative abundance of Subdivision5_genera_incertae_sedis and Acinetobacter in the rumen microbiota, and significantly downregulating the relative abundance of Butyrivibrio, Saccharofermentans, and Fibrobacter. The relative abundance of faecalicoccus was significantly upregulated in the intestinal microbiota, while the relative abundance of Coprococcus, Porphyromonas, and Anaerobacterium were significantly downregulated (p < 0.05). There were significant differences in the rumen, serum, and urine metabolites between the PRB group and the CON group, with 188, 138, and 104 metabolites (p < 0.05), mainly affecting pathways such as vitamin B2, vitamin B3, vitamin B6, and a series of amino acid metabolisms. The differential genes in the transcriptome sequencing were mainly enriched in protein modification regulation (especially histone modification), immune function regulation, and energy metabolism. Therefore, adding probiotics improved the growth performance of fattening sheep by altering the rumen and intestinal microbiota; the rumen, serum, and urine metabolome; and the transcriptome.

Abstract
Introduction This study evaluated the effects of Isatis Leaf (ISL) on the growth performance, gastrointestinal tissue morphology, rumen and intestinal microbiota, rumen, serum and urine metabolites, and rumen epithelial tissue transcriptome of fattening sheep. Methods Twelve 3.5-month-old healthy fattening sheep were randomly divided into two groups, each with 6 replicates, and fed with basal diet (CON) and basal diet supplemented with 80 g/kg ISL for 2.5 months. Gastrointestinal tract was collected for histological analysis, rumen fluid and feces were subjected to metagenomic analysis, rumen fluid, serum, and urine for metabolomics analysis, and rumen epithelial tissue for transcriptomics analysis. Results The results showed that in the ISL group, the average daily gain and average daily feed intake of fattening sheep were significantly lower than those of the CON group (P < 0.05), and the rumen ammonia nitrogen level was significantly higher than that of the CON group (P < 0.01). The thickness of the reticulum and abomasum muscle layer was significantly increased (P < 0.05). At the genus level, the addition of ISL modified the composition of rumen and fecal microorganisms, and the relative abundance of Methanobrevibacter and Centipeda was significantly upregulated in rumen microorganisms, The relative abundance of Butyrivibrio, Saccharofermentans, Mogibacterium, and Pirellula was significantly downregulated (P < 0.05). In fecal microorganisms, the relative abundance of Papillibacter, Pseudoflavonifractor, Butyricicoccus, Anaerovorax, and Methanocorpusculum was significantly upregulated, while the relative abundance of Roseburia, Coprococcus, Clostridium XVIII, Butyrivibrio, Parasutterella, Macellibacteroides, and Porphyromonas was significantly downregulated (P < 0.05). There were 164, 107, and 77 different metabolites in the rumen, serum, and urine between the ISL and CON groups (P < 0.05). The differential metabolic pathways mainly included thiamine metabolism, niacin and nicotinamide metabolism, vitamin B6 metabolism, taurine and taurine metabolism, beta-Alanine metabolism and riboflavin metabolism. These metabolic pathways were mainly involved in the regulation of energy metabolism and immune function in fattening sheep. Transcriptome sequencing showed that differentially expressed genes were mainly enriched in cellular physiological processes, development, and immune regulation. Conclusion In summary, the addition of ISL to the diet had the effect of increasing rumen ammonia nitrogen levels, regulating gastrointestinal microbiota, promoting body fat metabolism, and enhancing immunity in fattening sheep.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was aimed to explore the protective effect of electroacupuncture (EA) pretreatment at Zusanli point (ST36) on ventilation-induced lung injury (VILI) and its potential anti-inflammatory mechanism. METHODS High tidal volume ventilation was used to induce the VILI in mice, and EA pretreatment at ST36 was given for 7 consecutive days. The wet/dry ratio and pathological injury score of lung tissue, and total protein content of pulmonary alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were detected after 4 h of mechanical ventilation (MV). Meanwhile, the expressions of TLR4 and NF- κB in lung tissue were evaluated by Western Blot, and the inflammatory factors in lung tissue were detected by ELISA. RESULTS After four hours of mechanical ventilation, mice with ventilator-induced lung injury showed significant increases in lung wet/dry ratio, tissue damage scores, and protein content in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α) and TLR4/NF-κB expression levels in the lung were also markedly elevated (P < 0.05). Conversely, ST36 acupuncture point pre-treatment significantly reduced these parameters (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION EA pretreatment at ST36 could alleviate the inflammatory response for VILI via inhibiting TLR4/NF- κB pathway.

Abstract
AIM To develop and validate a progressive prediction model for estimating the time to progression (TTP) of sub-solid pulmonary nodules (SSNs). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 126 cases who met inclusion and exclusion criteria were included in the study. The primary endpoint of the study was TTP of SSNs. Baseline characteristics were assessed in terms of clinical and CT semantic features. Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression analysis were performed to determine the relationship between SSNs TTP and factors from the entire data set. The nomogram was constructed based on the result of multivariate analysis and internal validation was performed using the bootstrapping. The nomogram's performance was assessed with the C-index, calibration curves, and decision curve analysis. RESULTS The median follow-up time of the population was 42.5 (21.5) months. On Kaplan-Meier analysis, patients with higher or positive values of the indices had higher cumulative progression rates (p<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression models identified diameter, consolidation tumour ratio (CTR), morphology, and vasodilation sign (VDS) as independent risk factors of TTP. These predictors were included in the final model to estimate individual probabilities of progression in the 3 years, which performed well in the discrimination (the C-index was 0.901 [95%CI: 0.830-0.981] and 0.875 [95%CI: 0.805-0.942] in the training and internally validation sets). CONCLUSION The radiological semantic features nomogram is a promising and favourable prognostic biomarker for predicting progression and may aid in clinical risk stratification and decision-making for SSNs.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a severe acute neurological disorder with a high fatality rate. Early brain injury (EBI) and cerebral vasospasm are two critical complications of SAH that significantly contribute to poor prognosis. Currently, surgical intervention and interventional therapy are the main treatment options for SAH, but their effectiveness is limited. Exosomes, which are a type of extracellular vesicles, play a crucial role in intercellular communication and have been extensively studied in the past decade due to their potential influence on disease progression, diagnosis, and treatment. As one of the most important components of exosomes, miRNA plays both direct and indirect roles in affecting disease progression. Previous research has found that exosomal miRNA is involved in the development of various diseases, such as tumors, chronic hepatitis, atherosclerosis, diabetes, and SAH. This review focuses on exploring the impact of exosomal miRNA on SAH, including its influence on neuronal apoptosis, inflammatory response, and immune activation following SAH. Furthermore, this review highlights the potential clinical applications of exosomal miRNA in the treatment of SAH. Although current research on this topic is limited and the clinical application of exosomal miRNA has inherent limitations, we aim to provide a concise summary of existing research progress and offer new insights for future research directions and trends in this field.

Abstract
Mentha haplocalyx Briq (MHB) and its components have been proven to improve the growth performance of livestock and poultry. The aim of this experiment was to investigate the effects of MHB addition on growth performance, rumen and fecal microbiota, rumen fluid, serum and urine metabolism, and transcriptomics of rumen epithelial cells in meat sheep. Twelve Hu sheep were selected for the experiment and fed with basic diet (CON) and a basal diet supplemented with 80 g/kg DM of Mentha haplocalyx Briq (MHB). The experimental period was 10 weeks with the first 2 weeks as the pre-trial period. The results showed that compared with the CON group, the average daily weight gain of meat sheep in the MHB group increased by 20.1%; the total volatile fatty acid (VFA) concentration significantly increased (p < 0.05); The thickness of the cecal mucosal layer was significantly reduced (p < 0.01), while the thickness of the colonic mucosal layer was significantly increased (p < 0.05), the length of ileal villi significantly increased (p < 0.01), the thickness of colonic mucosal layer and rectal mucosal muscle layer significantly increased (p < 0.05), and the thickness of cecal mucosal layer significantly decreased (p < 0.05); The serum antioxidant capacity has increased. At the genus level, the addition of MHB changed the composition of rumen and fecal microbiota, increased the relative abundance of Paraprevotella, Alloprevotella, Marinilabilia, Saccharibacteria_genera_incertae_sedis, Subdivision5_genera_incertae_sedis and Ornatilinea in rumen microbiota, and decreased the relative abundance of Blautia (p < 0.05). The relative abundance of Prevotella, Clostridium XlVb and Parasutterella increased in fecal microbiota, while the relative abundance of Blautia and Coprococcus decreased (p < 0.05). There were significant differences in the concentrations of 105, 163, and 54 metabolites in the rumen, serum, and urine between the MHB group and the CON group (p < 0.05). The main metabolic pathways of the differences were pyrimidine metabolism, taurine and taurine metabolism, glyceride metabolism, and pentose phosphate pathway (p < 0.05), which had a significant impact on protein synthesis and energy metabolism. The transcriptome sequencing results showed that differentially expressed genes were mainly enriched in immune regulation, energy metabolism, and protein modification. Therefore, adding MHB improved the growth performance of lambs by altering rumen and intestinal microbiota, rumen, serum and urine metabolomics, and transcriptome.

Abstract
Hypertensive crisis and paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia are serious
adverse reactions that can lead to fatal consequences. We reported a 28-year-old
woman who underwent emergency cesarean section of her first fetus due to pelvic
outlet stenosis and had a hypertensive crisis, merging with paroxysmal
supraventricular tachycardia after dezocine was administrated during the
procedure. Her symptoms returned to normal after esmolol and urapidil were
administrated. In order to rule out hypertension crisis caused by other
diseases, the anesthesiologist immediately accessed the thyroid function,
myocardial enzymes, catecholamines, and arterial blood gas analysis of the
patient. No obvious abnormality was found in all the test results. We infer the
conclusion that the symptoms of this patient during the operation were most
likely related to dezocine administration. This case highlights the need to pay
attention to possible malignant adverse reactions while using dezocine during
cesarean section, and we recommend the immediate use of α-receptor blockers
and/or β-receptor blockers in situations like to avoid serious complications
caused by supraventricular tachycardia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A giant abdominal tumor with a large hiatal hernia remains a rare disease with few studies regarding its implications in anesthesia. A large hiatal hernia may compress the heart and cause arrhythmia and even cardiac arrest, which greatly increases the risks and challenges of anesthesia management. CASE DESCRIPTION We present a case in which a patient with a giant abdominal desmoid tumor and large hiatal hernia experienced a critical situation during anesthesia and surgery. CONCLUSIONS It is a great challenge for anesthesiologists to manage a patient's respiratory system and circulation. Careful perioperative management and optimized multidisciplinary teams are the key factors in the successful management of this rare condition. In addition, awake endotracheal intubation, ventilation preserving spontaneous breathing and target-directed fluid therapy play an essential role in anesthesia management.

Abstract
Emerging evidence shows that m6A is the most abundant modification in eukaryotic RNA molecules. It has only recently been found that this epigenetic modification plays an important role in many physiological and pathological processes, such as cell fate commitment, immune response, obesity, tumorigenesis, and relevant for the present review, gametogenesis. Notably the RNA metabolism process mediated by m6A is controlled and regulated by a series of proteins termed writers, readers and erasers that are highly expressed in germ cells and somatic cells of gonads. Here, we review and discuss the expression and the functional emerging roles of m6A in gametogenesis and early embryogenesis of mammals. Besides updated references about such new topics, readers might find in the present work inspiration and clues to elucidate epigenetic molecular mechanisms of reproductive dysfunction and perspectives for future research.

Abstract
Emetic Bacillus cereus strains produce a potent cereulide cytotoxin, which can cause acute and fatal cases of food poisoning. We isolated 18 emetic B. cereus strains from a food poisoning event, and from clinical and non-random food surveillance in China and phenotypic characteristics of haemolysis, starch hydrolysis, salicin fermentation, gelatin liquefaction, cytotoxicity, and susceptibility to antibiotics were assessed. All isolates were positive for haemolysis and gelatin liquefaction, and negative for starch hydrolysis and salicin fermentation. Their haemolytic potentials were intermediate to Bacillus anthracis and B. cereus ATCC 14579 (a non-emetic strain). All isolates were cytotoxic to CHO, Hep-2, and Vero cells, and were sensitive to ampicillin. The homogeneous phenotypes of emetic isolates from China are similar to the corresponding traits of European and Japanese isolates that have been characterized, suggesting highly similar phenotypes of emetic B. cereus worldwide.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Breast cancer survival advancement can be ascribed to various efforts including community screening programs and educational outreach resulting in earlier diagnosis, treatment advances, and more accessible care. However, racial disparities continue to persist. Identification of populations susceptible to adverse health outcomes is substantial to construct health disparities resolutions. The purpose of the study is to identify trends in breast cancer disease specific survival (DSS) in black patients compared to white patients by age at diagnosis, year of diagnosis, and tumor estrogen receptor (ER) status. Methods: The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database was utilized to identify patients of black or white race diagnosed with stage I-III, ER positive (+) or ER negative (-) breast cancer between 1990 and 2009. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to determine 14-year breast cancer DSS. Changes in DSS were analyzed over the study’s time period and in 3 age groups to evaluate women who were of pre-menopausal age (< 50 years), perimenopausal or postmenopausal and of the average age for breast cancer diagnosis (50-64 years), and elderly (65 + years). Results: The total study sample was 344,142 patients; 309,415 identified as white (89.9%) and 34,727 identified as black (10.1%) women. All patients diagnosed most recently had stable or improving DSS (p<0.05). White patients with ER+ or ER- disease had significantly higher DSS compared to blacks in all age groups and years of diagnosis (p<0.05); more specifically all black patients diagnosed in 2005-2009, had significantly lower disease specific survival (DSS) compared to white patients diagnosed a decade earlier in 1995-1999 (p<0.05). For women 65+ with ER+ cancer, black patients diagnosed between 2005-2009 had a DSS of 86% compared to 91% in white patients diagnosed between 1995-2000. In ER- patients less than 50 years of age, black patients diagnosed between 2005-2009 had 78% DSS compared to white patient DSS of 84% within the same period. Among black patients, young women <50 years of age ER+ and ER- women aged 50-64 years had consistent and most improvement in DSS over the study’s 4 time intervals; for ER+ cancer, DSS was 68% for those diagnosed in 1990-1994, 71% for 1995-1999, 75% for 2000-2005, and 79% for 2006-2009 and for ER- cancer, the DSS was 60% for those diagnosed in 1990-1994, 67% for 1995-1999, and 72% for 2000-2005, and 75% for 2006-2009 (p<0.05). Conclusion: Improvements in breast cancer DSS are evidenced in black and white women, most especially black patients < 50 years of age with ER+ and 50-64 with ER- disease. However, findings demonstrate DSS remain lower in all black patients compared to white patients, independent of year of diagnosis, age, and tumor receptor status. Continued efforts are crucial to identify and address the causes of continued disparities in breast cancer DSS, particularly in subsets of black patients not having survival improvements.

Abstract
Oxidored-nitro domain-containing protein 1 (NOR1) is a tumor suppressor downregulated in various human cancers, including nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), lung cancer, and testicular cancer. NOR1 protein is highly expressed in the normal brain; however, its role in brain tumors remains unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that the NOR1 protein level was decreased in glioma tissue samples as compared to its normal counterpart. Exogenously expressed NOR1 protein in glioma U251 cells inhibits tumor cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Re-expression of NOR1 induced cell cycle S to G2 phase arrest and suppressed its tumorigenicity in nude mice. Overexpression of NOR1 in U251 cells also led to a decrease of Ki67 expression in xenografts. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that NOR1 expression altered the expression of genes favored cell proliferation. Among the differentially expressed genes, FOXR2, a member of the FOX gene family, which promotes glioma progression, was decreased in NOR1 expressing cells. The downregulation of FOXR2 by NOR1 was validated in vitro and in vivo. Our findings suggest for the first time that NOR1 suppresses glioma progression via modulating the FOXR2 expression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The pathophysiological model of tics generally describes disruption of γ-aminobutyric acid transmission, and taurine is found to be an agonist of γ-aminobutyric acid receptors. The study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of taurine as an add-on treatment for tics. METHODS Four hundred and four youngsters with tic disorders were randomly assigned to 12 weeks of either oral taurine or placebo. The Yale Global Tic Severity Scale was used to measure tic severity. The primary outcome measure was global severity scores reduced by more than 60% compared with baseline scores. RESULTS Three hundred and eighty-two patients were successfully treated. At week 4, no significant differences were found in the treatment effect and the total occurrence of adverse drug reactions between the taurine and placebo groups. At week 12, the proportion of significant improvement in tics was significantly higher in the taurine group than the placebo group (53.4% with taurine versus 34.5% without taurine; relative risk 1.546; P < 0.001), and no group differences were found in the total occurrence of adverse drug reactions. CONCLUSIONS Taurine is safe and effective for tics.

Abstract
The momentum dependence of the nematic order parameter is an important ingredient in the microscopic description of iron-based high-temperature superconductors. While recent reports on FeSe indicate that the nematic order parameter changes sign between electron and hole bands, detailed knowledge is still missing for other compounds. Combining angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy with uniaxial strain tuning, we measure the nematic band splitting in both FeSe and BaFe_{2}As_{2} without interference from either twinning or magnetic order. We find that the nematic order parameter exhibits the same momentum dependence in both compounds with a sign change between the Brillouin center and the corner. This suggests that the same microscopic mechanism drives the nematic order in spite of the very different phase diagrams.

Abstract
BACKGROUND One-lung ventilation (OLV)-induced inflammation is a risk factor for acute lung injury that is responsible for 20% of postoperative pulmonary complications after lung resection. Inflammation is an important trigger for acute lung injury. Fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) is the major enzyme that degrades the endocannabinoid arachidonoylethanolamine (AEA), an important regulator of inflammation, and its downstream metabolites such as arachidonic acid (AA) are also involved in inflammation. Importantly, AEA is also found in lung parenchyma. However, it remains unclear whether pharmacological inhibition of FAAH inhibitor using compounds such as URB937 can attenuate OLV-induced lung injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS New Zealand white rabbits were anesthetized to establish a modified OLV-induced lung injury model. Twenty-four male rabbits were randomly divided into four groups (n = 6): TLV-S (2.5-h two-lung ventilation [TLV] + 1.5 mL/kg saline + 1-h TLV), OLV-S (2.5-h OLV + 1.5 mL/kg saline + 0.5-h OLV + 0.5-h TLV), U-OLV (1.5 mL/kg URB937 + 3.0-h OLV + 0.5-h TLV), and OLV-U (2.5-h OLV + 1.5 mL/kg URB937 + 0.5-h OLV + 0.5-h TLV). Arterial blood gases, lung wet/dry ratio, and lung injury score of the nonventilated lungs were measured. The levels of AEA, AA, prostaglandin I2 (PGI2), thromboxane A2 (TXA2), and leukotriene B4 (LTB4) in the nonventilated lung were also quantified. RESULTS The arterial oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2) decreased after 0.5-h OLV in the three OLV groups. The PaO2/FiO2 in the OLV-U group was better than that in the OLV-S and U-OLV groups and was accompanied with reductions in the wet/dry ratio and lung injury scores of the nonventilated lungs. The FAAH inhibitor URB937 administered not before but 2.5 h after OLV attenuated OLV-induced lung injury by increasing AEA levels and reducing the levels of downstream metabolites including AA, PGI2, TXA2, and LTB4. CONCLUSIONS Posttreatment with the FAAH inhibitor URB937 attenuated OLV-induced lung injury in rabbits and was associated with increased AEA levels and decreased levels of AA and its downstream metabolites.

Abstract
Pharmacokinetic parameters can be significantly altered for acute kidney injury (AKI), extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and continuous veno-venous hemofiltration therapy (CVVH). Here we reported a case of individualized vancomycin dosing for a patient diagnosed as severe acute pancreatitis treated with concurrent ECMO and CVVH. A 65 kg 32-year-old woman was admitted to hospital presented with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), respiratory failure, metabotropic acidosis and hyperkalemia. She was admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) on hospital day 1 and was initiated on CVVH. She progressed to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) on ICU day 2, and veno-venous ECMO was instituted. Several catheters were inserted into the body to support ECMO, CVVH and pulse indicator continuous cardiac output (PiCCO), so vancomycin was prescribed empirically on ICU day 3 for prevention of catheter-related infection. Given the residual renal function and continuous hemofiltration intensity on day 3, vancomycin bolus of 1 000 mg was prescribed, followed by a maintenance dose of 500 mg every 8 hours. On ICU day 4, a vancomycin trough serum concentration of 14.1 mg/L was obtained before the fourth dose, which was within the target range of 10-20 mg/L. By ICU day 7, vancomycin dosage was elevated to 1.0 g every 12 hours because of aggravated infection and improved kidney function. On ICU day 14, a vancomycin trough serum concentration of 17 mg/L was obtained. Her white blood cell (WBC) and neutrophil percentage (Neut%) dropped to the normal level by ICU day 19. This vancomycin regimen was successful in providing a target attainment of trough serum concentration ranging from 10-20 mg/L quickly and in controlling infection-related symptoms and signs properly. With the help of this case report we want to call attention to the clinically significant alteration in vancomycin pharmacokinetics among critically ill patients. Individualized vancomycin dosing regimens and therapeutic drug monitoring are necessary for critically ill patients receiving CVVH and ECMO to ensure that the target serum vancomycin levels are reached to adequately treat the infection and avoid nephrotoxicity.

Abstract
We report an angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy study of the iron-based superconductor family, Ba_{1-x}Na_{x}Fe_{2}As_{2}. This system harbors the recently discovered double-Q magnetic order appearing in a reentrant C_{4} phase deep within the underdoped regime of the phase diagram that is otherwise dominated by the coupled nematic phase and collinear antiferromagnetic order. From a detailed temperature-dependence study, we identify the electronic response to the nematic phase in an orbital-dependent band shift that strictly follows the rotational symmetry of the lattice and disappears when the system restores C_{4} symmetry in the low temperature phase. In addition, we report the observation of a distinct electronic reconstruction that cannot be explained by the known electronic orders in the system.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Detection and diagnosis of ductal carcinoma in situ has substantially increased since the widespread use of mammographic screening with the incidence of DCIS increasing between 1975 from 5.8 per 100,000 to 33.8 per 100,000 women in 2010. While surgical resection of DCIS remains the main treatment, outcomes in terms of in breast re-occurrence or contralateral disease are unpredictable. Recently, three large clinical trials of active surveillance versus standard of care have been initiated. We sought to compare the clinical, imaging, histopathological features and treatment of DCIS for contemporary patients who subsequently developed a second in situ or invasive breast lesion among women treated within a single institution.
Methods: A contemporary prospective cohort study comprising 2,509 women treated for DCIS between 2000 and 2014 was examined for diagnostic imaging, surgery, pathology, adjuvant treatment and second breast events. Patients with primary bilateral DCIS or a bilateral second event were excluded as were patients with antecedent invasive breast cancer. Patients were grouped into two populations based on ipsilateral and contralateral second breast event.
Results: Amongst 2,509 women treated for DCIS between 2000 and 2014, of whom 146 had a second breast event (5.8%). 77 (52.7% of events, 3.07% overall) developed an ipsilateral second breast event (37 DCIS, 40 invasive breast cancer) and 69 (47.3%, 2.75%) patients developed a contralateral second breast lesion (34 DCIS, 35 invasive breast cancer). Patients who developed a contralateral second event were older than those who developed an ipsilateral second event (58 years vs. 52 years, p=0.003). Patients receiving segmental mastectomies were more likely to develop an ipsilateral second event than a contralateral event (85.7% vs. 60.9%, p=0.001). Patients who developed a second contralateral breast event were significantly older at diagnosis (63 years vs. 58 years, p=0.003). There was no significant difference in the number of (69 vs. 77) or time between contralateral and ipsilateral second breast events (5.2 years and 5.1 years, p=0.8) nor in the number of patients with invasive or in situ second events (75 vs. 71). Patients with ipsilateral second breasts events were more likely to undergo bilateral mastectomy than those with contralateral second events (15 vs. 2, p=0.003).
Conclusions: Following standard of care treatment for DCIS, 1 in 20 women develop further DCIS or invasive disease at a median of 5 years with very similar proportions of ipsilateral or contralateral and DCIS or invasive disease. Current trials of active surveillance should consider a median 5 years follow up as a critical time point for reporting results.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Despite the high rates of neutropenia observed in the PALOMA studies, the incidence of neutropenic fevers remained low. The safety analysis from the PALOMA-3 trial showed no difference in PFS among pts who had dose reductions or delays secondary to neutropenia. We conducted a retrospective study to analyze the impact of dose delays and reductions on toxicity and progression free survival (PFS) in pts receiving palbociclib as standard of care.
Methods: Pts with metastatic ER positive breast cancer receiving palbociclib in any line of therapy were identified from a cohort at MD Anderson Cancer Center. Clinical, demographic, baseline labs, comorbidities and recurrence data were collected. Dose delays, dose reductions, and toxicities were recorded up to the first 6 cycles of palbociclib. Early dose delays and reductions were defined as events occurring during the first 2 cycles of palbociclib while late events were defined as cycles 3-6. Data was analyzed using Fischer's exact test for categorized variables and T test/Wilcoxon rank-sum test for continuous variables. PFS was analyzed using the Kaplan Meier method and Cox model was used to analyze factors associated with PFS.
Results: 344 pts who met eligibility criteria were included in the analysis. Pts receiving palbociclib on clinical trial were excluded. 109 (31.6%) pts received dose reductions and 153 (44.4%) experienced dose delays. The rate of neutropenic fever was low, occurring in 2.3% of all pts. There was a significant association between pts experiencing dose reductions and Hispanic race, baseline ANC, history of adjuvant endocrine therapy, adjuvant radiation therapy (XRT), and heart disease. History of adjuvant XRT, baseline ANC, and heart disease were associated with dose delays. Toxicities, including neutropenic fever, infections requiring antibiotics, and hospitalizations, were associated with dose reductions and dose delays. Median PFS for the cohort was 263.5 days. There was no significant association between early dose reductions or delays with PFS. Pts experiencing late dose delays (hazard ratio [HR], 0.4, P=0.0001) and reductions (HR, 0.4, P=0.0005) had a significantly longer PFS. Median PFS for pts without late dose delays was 228 days compared to 313.5 days for pts with late dose delays. Median PFS for pts without late dose reductions was 246 days compared to 305.5 days for pts with late dose reductions. In the multivariable analysis, liver metastasis, metastatic line, and higher tumor grade were associated with worse PFS. Pts receiving palbociclib and fulvestrant were found to have worse PFS than pts receiving palbociclib and letrozole.
Conclusions: Similar to the PALOMA trials, this study found that while the rate of toxicities such as neutropenic fever were low, dose reductions and delays were common. In pts receiving palbociclib as standard of care, pts with late dose reductions and delays had a longer PFS than those without dose reductions and delays. It is reassuring that the PFS was not negatively affected in pts with dose reductions and delays. As use of palbociclib as standard of care becomes more common, further larger retrospective studies are warranted to examine the impact of dose delays and reductions.

Abstract
The interactions that lead to the emergence of superconductivity in iron-based materials remain a subject of debate. It has been suggested that electron-electron correlations enhance electron-phonon coupling in iron selenide (FeSe) and related pnictides, but direct experimental verification has been lacking. Here we show that the electron-phonon coupling strength in FeSe can be quantified by combining two time-domain experiments into a "coherent lock-in" measurement in the terahertz regime. X-ray diffraction tracks the light-induced femtosecond coherent lattice motion at a single phonon frequency, and photoemission monitors the subsequent coherent changes in the electronic band structure. Comparison with theory reveals a strong enhancement of the coupling strength in FeSe owing to correlation effects. Given that the electron-phonon coupling affects superconductivity exponentially, this enhancement highlights the importance of the cooperative interplay between electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the prevalence of and risk factors for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in overweight and obese patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS We recruited patients with Type 2 diabetes with a BMI ≥ 24 kg/m2 , who visited the diabetes clinics of 60 hospitals in 21 cities in Guangdong Province, China from August 2011 to March 2012. Anthropometric measurements, biochemical tests and abdominal ultrasonography were performed for all the patients. RESULTS The study included 3861 patients (1860 men) with a mean ± sd (range) age of 58.91 ± 13.06 (18-90) years. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease was found in 1751 patients (45.4%), with a significantly higher prevalence among men than women (48.0 vs 42.9%). The peak of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease prevalence was in patients with a BMI of 34-35 kg/m2 , those with a triglyceride/HDL cholesterol ratio of 5.5-6.0, men aged < 30 years and women aged 40-50 years. Assessment using the BARD (BMI, aspartate aminotransferase/alanine aminotransferase ratio, diabetes) score system showed that the prevalence of advanced fibrosis was 80.52% in all patients and that women had a higher prevalence than men (86.52 vs 74.16%). Multiple logistic regression analyses showed that dyslipidaemia, BMI and 2-h postprandial plasma glucose were independent risk factors for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, while heart rate and female gender were protective factors. CONCLUSION The prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in overweight and obese patients with Type 2 diabetes in South China is high. Multiple metabolic disorders were significantly associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in overweight and obese patients with Type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: The 7th edition AJCC staging system provides prognostic information based on the anatomic extent of disease determined by the tumor size (T), lymph node status (N), and presence or absence of metastatic disease (M). Tumor biology, including grade, estrogen receptor (ER) status and HER2 status, which are known to have prognostic and predictive value, are not incorporated. This study was undertaken to evaluate a risk score that takes into account the tumor grade and other biomarkers that can be added to the current anatomic TNM staging system to improve stratification of patients with respect to disease specific survival (DSS) and overall survival (OS).
Methods: A prospectively maintained database was used to identify 3,327 patients with non-metastatic invasive breast cancer who underwent surgery as a first intervention from January 2007 through December 2013. Clinicopathologic data were recorded including: age, grade, ER status, HER2 status, and pathologic stage. Pathologic stage was determined according to the 7th edition of the AJCC staging guidelines. ER status was recorded as the percentage of cells staining positive by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Prior to 2010, tumors were classified as ER positive if there was >10% staining. A cut-off of 1% was used for patients treated after 2010, consistent with the change in American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) guidelines. HER2 status was defined as positive if 3+ on immunohistochemistry or gene amplification was shown on fluorescence in situ hybridization. A risk score was calculated by assigning one point for each of the following tumor characteristics: ER-negative status, HER2 negative status and grade 3. Univariate survival analyses according to AJCC stage (I, IIA, IIB, IIIA and IIIC) and risk score (0-3) were performed for DSS and OS using the Kaplan Meier method.
Results: Median follow-up time was 5.0 years (range, 0.1 to 8.8). Five year DSS for the entire cohort was 97.9% (95% CI: 97.3%-98.4%). The distribution in risk score in the entire cohort was: risk score 0=81 (2.4%), 1=2289 (68.8%), 2=683 (20.5%), and 3= (8.3%). As shown in the table, for all AJCC stages, the 5-yr DSS and 5-yr OS varied according to risk score (p<.01).

Conclusion: The current study demonstrates that incorporating the risk score with current AJCC staging significantly improves the ability to stratify breast cancer patients with respect to DSS and OS. We recommend that the risk score be incorporated into the forthcoming revision of the AJCC staging system.

Abstract
Aim This study investigates the colonization rate of Akkermansia muciniphila in the gastrointestinal tracts of people living in southern China and applies a modified method for the isolation and subtyping of A. muciniphila strains from faecal samples. Methods and Results Fresh faecal samples were collected and bacterial DNA was extracted from these samples for real‐time PCR analysis. Strains were separated using a culture‐dependent sPCR‐directed method and classified using an enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERIC‐PCR) DNA fingerprinting method. The colonization rate for the sample population from southern China was 51·74%. We isolated 22 strains from human faeces. The results revealed that all strains were identifiable as A. muciniphila with 99–100% identity to the type‐strain ATCC BAA‐835. ERIC‐PCR resulted in grouping of the DNA fingerprints showed that 12 distinct clusters were distinguished with a delineation level of 100%. Conclusions Southern China has a high rate of A. muciniphila colonization and over 12 different subtype strains reside in faecal samples. Significance and Impact of the Study Akkermansia muciniphila has a beneficial role in human gastrointestinal tract. These studies provide a better understanding of A. muciniphila and details of its colonization in the human gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract
Superconductivity originates from pairing of electrons near the Fermi energy. The Fermi surface topology and pairing symmetry are thus two pivotal characteristics of a superconductor. Superconductivity in one monolayer (1 ML) FeSe thin film has attracted great interest recently due to its intriguing interfacial properties and possibly high superconducting transition temperature over 65 K. Here, we report high-resolution measurements of the Fermi surface and superconducting gaps in 1 ML FeSe using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Two ellipselike electron pockets are clearly resolved overlapping with each other at the Brillouin zone corner. The superconducting gap is nodeless but moderately anisotropic, which puts strong constraint on determining the pairing symmetry. The gap maxima locate on the d_{xy} bands along the major axis of the ellipse and four gap minima are observed at the intersections of electron pockets. The gap maximum location combined with the Fermi surface geometry deviate from a single d-wave, extended s-wave or s_{±} gap function, suggesting an important role of the multiorbital nature of Fermi surface and orbital-dependent pairing in 1 ML FeSe. The gap minima location may be explained by a sign change on the electron pockets, or a competition between intra- and interorbital pairing.

Abstract
AIMS To purify and characterize the biosurfactants produced by Achromobacter sp. HZ01. METHODS AND RESULTS After fermentation, one biosurfactant was successfully purified from the fermentation broth of strain HZ01 by centrifugation, extraction using ethyl acetate, silica gel chromatography and reversed phase-high performance liquid chromatography. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the biosurfactant and the effects of temperatures, pH and salinities on its stability were determined. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, analysis of fatty acids and amino acids and mass spectrometry were used to characterize the biosurfactant. The maximum production yield of the crude biosurfactant reached to 6·84 g l(-1) after incubation for 96 h. Except the favourable adaptability to a wide range of temperatures, pH and salinities, the biosurfactant with a CMC value of 48 mg l(-1) could efficiently emulsify diverse hydrophobic compounds. The chemical formula of this biosurfactant was confirmed to be CH3 -(CH2 )17 -CHO-CH2 -CO-Gly-Gly-Leu-Met-Leu-Leu, in which the oxygen atom of group CHO linked to the last amino acid (Leu), a structure had never been reported before. CONCLUSIONS The purified biosurfactant is a novel cyclic lipopeptide. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY One novel lipopeptide was purified and characterized. The novel biosurfactant exhibited good potential applications, such as bioremediation.

Abstract
We present a systematic angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy study of the substitution dependence of the electronic structure of Rb_{0.8}Fe_{2}(Se_{1-z}S_{z})_{2} (z=0, 0.5, 1), where superconductivity is continuously suppressed into a metallic phase. Going from the nonsuperconducting Rb_{0.8}Fe_{2}S_{2} to superconducting Rb_{0.8}Fe_{2}Se_{2}, we observe little change of the Fermi surface topology, but a reduction of the overall bandwidth by a factor of 2. Hence, for these heavily electron-doped iron chalcogenides, we have identified electron correlation as explicitly manifested in the quasiparticle bandwidth to be the important tuning parameter for superconductivity, and that moderate correlation is essential to achieving high T_{C}.

Abstract
Establishing the appropriate theoretical framework for unconventional superconductivity in the iron-based materials requires correct understanding of both the electron correlation strength and the role of Fermi surfaces. This fundamental issue becomes especially relevant with the discovery of the iron chalcogenide superconductors. Here, we use angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to measure three representative iron chalcogenides, FeTe0.56Se0.44, monolayer FeSe grown on SrTiO3 and K0.76Fe1.72Se2. We show that these superconductors are all strongly correlated, with an orbital-selective strong renormalization in the dxy bands despite having drastically different Fermi surface topologies. Furthermore, raising temperature brings all three compounds from a metallic state to a phase where the dxy orbital loses all spectral weight while other orbitals remain itinerant. These observations establish that iron chalcogenides display universal orbital-selective strong correlations that are insensitive to the Fermi surface topology, and are close to an orbital-selective Mott phase, hence placing strong constraints for theoretical understanding of iron-based superconductors. A proper theoretical description for unconventional superconductivity in iron-based compounds remains elusive. Here, the authors, to capture the electron correlation strength and the role of Fermi surfaces, report ARPES measurements of three iron chalcogenide superconductors to establish universal features.

Abstract
Ultrafast light pulses can modify electronic properties of quantum materials by perturbing the underlying, intertwined degrees of freedom. In particular, iron-based superconductors exhibit a strong coupling among electronic nematic fluctuations, spins and the lattice, serving as a playground for ultrafast manipulation. Here we use time-resolved X-ray scattering to measure the lattice dynamics of photoexcited BaFe2As2. On optical excitation, no signature of an ultrafast change of the crystal symmetry is observed, but the lattice oscillates rapidly in time due to the coherent excitation of an A1g mode that modulates the Fe–As–Fe bond angle. We directly quantify the coherent lattice dynamics and show that even a small photoinduced lattice distortion can induce notable changes in the electronic and magnetic properties. Our analysis implies that transient structural modification can be an effective tool for manipulating the electronic properties of multi-orbital systems, where electronic instabilities are sensitive to the orbital character of bands. In BaFe2As2, the lattice couples strongly to the magnetic and electronic degrees of freedom, providing a way to control them. Here, by means of time-resolved X-ray scattering, the authors measure rapid lattice oscillations, which can induce changes in the material's electronic and magnetic properties.

Abstract
Previous studies have demonstrated that volatile anesthetics could produce local anesthesia. Emulsified isoflurane at 8% has been reported to produce epidural anesthetic effect in rabbits. This study was designed to investigate the long-term epidural anesthetic effect of emulsified halothane in rabbits. In this study, 40 healthy adult rabbits (weighting 2.0-2.5 kg) with an epidural catheter were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=10/group), receiving epidural administration of 1% lidocaine (lido group), 8% emulsified isoflurane 1ml (8% E-iso group), 8% emulsified halothane (8% E-Halo group) and 12% emulsified halothane (12% E-Halo group). After administration, sensory and motor functions as well as consciousness state were assessed until 60 minutes after sensory and motor function returned to its baseline or at least for 180 min. After epidural anesthesia, all the rabbits were continuously observed for 7 days and sacrificed for pathological evaluations. As a result, all the four study solutions produced typical epidural anesthesia. Onset times of sensory and motor function blockade were similar among the four groups (P>0.05). Duration of sensory blockade in 12% E-Halo group (83±13 min) was significantly longer than other groups: 51±12 min in 8% E-Halo group (P<0.01), 57±8 min in 8% E-iso group (P<0.01) and 47±9 min in lido group (P<0.01). Duration of sensory blockade in 8% E-iso group is longer than lido group (P<0.05). Duration of motor blockade in 12% E-Halo group (81±12 min) was also significantly longer than other groups: 40±8 min in 8% E-Halo group (P<0.01), 37±3 min in 8% E-iso group (P<0.01), 37±6 min in lido group (P<0.01). Normal consciousness was found in the rabbits from 8% E-Halo, 8% E-iso and lido groups while there were four rabbits in 12% E-Halo group (4/10) showed a light sedation. For all the rabbits, no pathological injury was found. The present study demonstrates that emulsified halothane produces reversible concentration-dependent epidural anesthesia and at 12% (v/v), emulsified halothane could produce long-term anesthesia without pathological injury.

Abstract
We report findings of strong anomalies in both mutual inductance and inelastic Raman spectroscopy measurements of single-unit-cell FeSe film grown on Nb-doped SrTiO3, which occur near the temperature where the superconductinglike energy gap opens. Analysis suggests that the anomaly is associated with a broadened ferroelectric transition in a thin layer near the FeSe/SrTiO3 interface. The coincidence of the ferroelectric transition and gap-opening temperatures adds credence to the central role played by the film-substrate interaction on the strong Cooper pairing in this system. We discuss scenarios that could explain such a coincidence.

Abstract
Protein serine/threonine phosphatase-2A (PP-2A) is one of the key enzymes responsible for dephosphorylation in vertebrates. PP-2A-mediated dephosphorylation participates in many different biological processes including cell proliferation, differentiation, transformation, apoptosis, autophage and senescence. However, whether PP-2A directly controls animal development remains to be explored. Here, we present direct evidence to show that PP-2A displays important functions in regulating eye development of vertebrates. Using goldfish as a model system, we have demonstrated the following novel information. First, inhibition of PP-2A activity leads to significant death of the treated embryos, which is derived from blastomere apoptosis associated with enhanced phosphorylation of Bcl-XL at Ser-62, and the survived embryos displayed severe phenotype in the eye. Second, knockdown of PP-2A with morpholino oligomers leads to significant death of the injected embryos. The survived embryos from PP-2A knockdown displayed clear retardation in lens differentiation. Finally, overexpression of each catalytic subunit of PP-2A also causes death of majority of the injected embryos and leads to absence of goldfish eye lens or severely disturbed differentiation. Together, our results provide direct evidence that protein phosphatase-2A is important for normal eye development in goldfish.

Abstract
It is well established that the tumor suppressor p53 plays major roles in regulating apoptosis and cell cycle progression. In addition, recent studies have demonstrated that p53 is actively involved in regulating cell differentiation in muscle, the circulatory system and various carcinoma tissues. We have recently shown that p53 also controls lens differentiation. Regarding the mechanism, we reveal that p53 directly regulates c-Maf and Prox1, two important transcription factors to control cell differentiation in the ocular lens. In the present study, we present further evidence to show that p53 can regulate lens differentiation by controlling expression of the differentiation genes coding for the lens crystallins. First, the αA and βA3/A1 gene promoters or introns all contain putative p53 binding sites. Second, gel mobility shifting assays revealed that the p53 protein in nuclear extracts from lens epithelial cells directly binds to the p53 binding sites found in these crystallin gene promoters or introns. Third, exogenous wild type p53 induces dose-dependent expression of the luciferase reporter gene driven by different crystallin gene promoters and the exogenous dominant negative mutant p53 causes dose-dependent inhibition of the same crystallin genes. Fourth, ChIP assays revealed that p53 binds to crystallin gene promoters in vivo. Finally, in the p53 knockout mouse lenses, expression levels of various crystallins were found down-regulated in comparison with those from the wild type mouse lenses. Together, our results reveal that p53 directly regulates expression of different sets of genes to control lens differentiation.

Abstract
The extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) is one of the three major types of mitogen-activated protein kinases. Previous studies showed that ERKs mediate various signaling pathways for cell proliferation, differentiation, survival and transformation in mammals. In the present study, we use goldfish as a model system and demonstrate that ERK kinases play important roles in promoting embryonic survival and regulate development of eye and trunk in vertebrates. ERKs are highly expressed in multiple tissues including lens epithelial cells, lens fiber cells, retina, brain, muscle and heart of adult goldfish. Injection of the dominant negative ERK mutant (DNM-ERK) into the fertilized eggs of goldfish significantly inhibited ERK activity at blastula stage, and completely blocked ERK activity at gastrula and later stages. As a result, the blastula cells were induced into apoptosis, and majority of the injected embryos were lethal at embryonic stages. At the molecular level, inhibition of ERK activity by DNM-ERKs suppressed phosphorylation of Bad at Ser-112 to promote apoptosis. Similar results were observed when MEK activity was inhibited by U0126 treatment. The survived embryos display significant abnormality in the phenotypes of both eye and trunk. Associated with the abnormality in the eye development, phosphorylation in Pax-6 and expression of HSF4 were significantly decreased and expression of the β-crystallin gene was also downregulated. These results provide novel information regarding the roles of ERKs in regulating vertebrate development.
