Abstract
Objective: To investigated the safety and efficacy of donor-derived CD19+ or sequential CD19+ CD22+ chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy in patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods: The data of 22 patients with B-ALL who relapsed after allo-HSCT and who underwent donor-derived CAR-T therapy at the Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University and the 920th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force of the People's Liberation Army of China from September 2015 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS), and the secondary endpoints were event-free survival (EFS), complete remission (CR) rate, and Grade 3-4 adverse events. Results: A total of 81.82% (n=18) of the 22 patients achieved minimal residual disease-negative CR after CAR-T infusion. The median follow-up time was 1037 (95% CI 546-1509) days, and the median OS and EFS were 287 (95% CI 132-441) days and 212 (95% CI 120-303) days, respectively. The 6-month OS and EFS rates were 67.90% (95% CI 48.30%-84.50%) and 58.70% (95% CI 37.92%-79.48%), respectively, and the 1-year OS and EFS rates were 41.10% (95% CI 19.15%-63.05%) and 34.30% (95% CI 13.92%-54.68%), respectively. Grade 1-2 cytokine release syndrome occurred in 36.36% (n=8) of the patients, and grade 3-4 occurred in 13.64% of the patients (n=3). Grade 2 and 4 graft-versus-host disease occurred in two patients. Conclusion: Donor-derived CAR-T therapy is safe and effective in patients with relapsed B-ALL after allo-HSCT.

Efficacy and Safety of First-line Therapies for Advanced Unresectable Oesophageal Squamous Cell Cancer: a Systematic Review and Network Meta-analysis. Clin Oncol (R Coll Radiol) 2024; 36:30-38. [PMID: 37827946 DOI: 10.1016/j.clon.2023.09.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2023] [Revised: 08/27/2023] [Accepted: 09/21/2023] [Indexed: 10/14/2023]
Abstract
AIM To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of first-line treatments for advanced unresectable oesophageal squamous cell cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic review and network meta-analysis was carried out by retrieving and retaining relevant literature from databases. The studies were randomised controlled trials comparing first-line treatments for advanced unresectable oesophageal squamous cell cancer. A Bayesian network meta-analysis was used to assess clinical outcomes. RESULTS Nine studies including 4499 patients receiving first-line treatments were analysed. For all populations, toripalimab plus chemotherapy tended to provide the best overall survival (hazard ratio 0.58, 95% confidence intervals 0.43-0.78) and sintilimab plus chemotherapy provided the best progression-free survival (0.56, 0.46-0.68). Nivolumab plus chemotherapy presented the best objective response rate (odds ratio 2.45, 1.78-3.42) and camrelizumab plus chemotherapy (0.47, 0.29-0.74) appeared to be the safest. Sintilimab plus chemotherapy (0.55, 0.40-0.75) and nivolumab (0.54, 0.37-0.80) plus chemotherapy had the best overall survival in programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) tumour proportion score <1% and ≥1% subgroups. Toripalimab plus chemotherapy (0.61, 0.40-0.93) and pembrolizumab (0.57, 0.43-0.75) were the best in overall survival in combined positive score <10 and ≥10 subgroups, respectively. Toripalimab plus chemotherapy showed the best overall survival in the Asian group; pembrolizumab presented better overall survival in the Asian population than the non-Asian group. CONCLUSION Most immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy showed superior clinical benefits and sintilimab plus chemotherapy, toripalimab plus chemotherapy and tislelizumab plus chemotherapy had better comprehensive clinical efficacy. PD-L1 expression detection and ethnicity differences are still of great significance and most suitable regimens varied from each subgroup.

HPV-positive clinically advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder (aBSCC): A comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) study. Urol Oncol 2023; 41:486.e15-486.e23. [PMID: 37821306 DOI: 10.1016/j.urolonc.2023.09.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2023] [Revised: 08/31/2023] [Accepted: 09/03/2023] [Indexed: 10/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced bladder squamous cell carcinoma (aBSCC) is an uncommon form of urinary bladder malignancy when compared with the much higher urothelial carcinoma incidence. We studied the genomic alteration (GA) landscape in a series of aBSCC based on the association with human papilloma virus (HPV) to determine if differences in GA would be observed between the positive and negative groups. METHODS Using a hybrid capture-based FDA-approved CGP assay, a series of 171 aBSCC were sequenced to evaluate all classes of GA. Tumor mutational burden (TMB) was determined on up to 1.1 Mbp of sequenced DNA and microsatellite instability (MSI) was determined on up to 114 loci. Programmed cell death ligand -1 (PD-L1) expression was determined by IHC (Dako 22C3) with negative expression when PD-L1 was 0, lower expression of positivity set at 1 to 49%, and higher expression set at ≥50% expression. RESULTS Overall, 11 (6.4%) of the aBSCC were found to harbor HPV sequences (10 HPV16 and 1 HPV 11). HPV+ status was identified slightly more often in women (NS) and in younger patients (P = 0.04); 2 female patients with aBSCC had a prior history of SCC including 1 anal SCC and 1 vaginal SCC. HPV+ aBSCC had fewer GA/tumor (P < 0.0001), more inactivating mutations in RB1 (P = 0.032), and fewer inactivating GA in CDKN2A (P < 0.0001), CDKN2B (P = 0.05), TERT promoter (P = 0.0004) and TP53 (P < 0.0001). GA in genes associated with urothelial carcinoma including FGFR2 and FGFR3 were similar in both HPV+ and HPV- aBSCC groups. MTAP loss (homozygous deletion) which has emerged as a biomarker for PRMT5 inhibitor-based clinical trials was not identified in any of the 11 HPV+ aBSCC cases, which was significantly lower than the 28% positive frequency of MTAP loss in the HPV- aBSCC group (P < 0.0001). MTOR and PIK3CA pathway GA were not significantly different in the 2 groups. Putative biomarkers associated with immunotherapy (IO) response, including MSI and TMB status, were also similar in the 2 groups. PD-L1 expression data was available for a subset of both HPV+ and HPV- cases and showed high frequencies of positive staining which was not different in the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS HPV+ aBSCC tends to occur more often in younger patients. As reported in other HPV-associated squamous cell carcinomas, HPV+ aBSCC demonstrates significantly reduced frequencies of inactivating mutations in cell cycle regulatory genes with similar GA in MTOR and PIK3CA pathways. The implication of HPV in the pathogenesis of bladder cancer remains unknown but warrants further exploration and clinical validation.

Clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of solitary and multiple adult gliomas: a retrospective study based on propensity score matching. EUROPEAN REVIEW FOR MEDICAL AND PHARMACOLOGICAL SCIENCES 2023; 27:10481-10498.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to compare the survival and prognostic factors in patients with solitary gliomas to those with multiple to improve the understanding of multiple gliomas and investigate their heterogeneous dissemination pathways. PATIENTS AND METHODS Data on 358 patients diagnosed with adult gliomas confirmed by postoperative pathology were retrospectively collected and analyzed. The clinical characteristics, survival rates and prognosis of patients were analyzed by propensity score matching (PSM). RESULTS Between the two groups, statistically significant differences were identified in multiple general clinical characteristics, including age, pathological grade, lesion location, 1p19q co-deletion, IDH1 mutation, MGMT promoter methylation expression rate, p53 mutation and NF1 mutation (p<0.05). Before PSM, the mOS for patients with multiple gliomas was shorter than that for those with solitary (p=0.0045). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that age, pathological grade IV, and absence of concurrent chemotherapy were significant risk factors affecting OS. Pathological grade IV, ki-67 expression range of 25-50%, and absence of concurrent chemotherapy were identified as risk factors for PFS. After PSM, the prognostic factors associated with OS were age and concurrent chemotherapy, while those associated with PFS were ki-67 expression range of 50-75% and lesion located in the right frontal lobe (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The prognosis for multiple gliomas is extremely poor, which is related to the fact that the most common pathological types are glioblastomas and the surgical procedure is challenging. Concurrent chemotherapy and radiotherapy are the strongest protective prognostic factors, and the differences in their molecular pathology expression compared to solitary gliomas remain for further investigation.

Abstract
Neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ) is a yet unobserved nuclear process that would demonstrate Lepton number violation, a clear evidence of beyond standard model physics. The process two neutrino double beta decay (2νββ) is allowed by the standard model and has been measured in numerous experiments. In this Letter, we report a measurement of 2νββ decay half-life of ^{100}Mo to the ground state of ^{100}Ru of [7.07±0.02(stat)±0.11(syst)]×10^{18} yr by the CUPID-Mo experiment. With a relative precision of ±1.6% this is the most precise measurement to date of a 2νββ decay rate in ^{100}Mo. In addition, we constrain higher-order corrections to the spectral shape, which provides complementary nuclear structure information. We report a novel measurement of the shape factor ξ_{3,1}=0.45±0.03(stat)±0.05(syst) based on a constraint on the ratio of higher-order terms from theory, which can be reliably calculated. This is compared to theoretical predictions for different nuclear models. We also extract the first value for the effective axial vector coupling constant obtained from a spectral shape study of 2νββ decay.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) There is accumulating evidence that stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) modulates immune responses to cancer; combining SABR and immunotherapy could promote the abscopal effect, but the precise effects of SABR on patients' systemic T cells is unclear. Here, we investigated SABR-induced systemic T cell response in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) by single-cell RNA and T cell receptor sequencing. MATERIALS/METHODS We performed single-cell RNA and T cell receptor sequencing on 29,439 T cells from four pairs of peripheral blood before and after SABR in early-stage NSCLC patients. Cell clustering and dimensionality reduction, SingleR, feature genes score, and TCR profiling analyses were used to investigate the heterogeneity of T cells and their changes following SABR. RESULTS We identified fourteen T cell subtypes using unsupervised graph-based clustering of uniform manifold approximation and projection. By comparing the gene set scores of CD8_TE and CD8_EM pre- and post-SABR, we found both cytotoxic and inhibitory scores were significantly elevated in CD8_TE (both P < 0.001), while cytotoxic score was significantly increased in CD8_EM (P < 0.001) after SABR. We also found that CD4_TE showed increased cytotoxic scores and decreased Treg scores (P < 0.001 and < 0.05, respectively), while Treg cells showed decreased inhibitory and Treg scores (P < 0.001 and <0.01, respectively) after SABR. The proportion of large TCR clones was higher after SABR, which was accompanied by a decrease in proportion of single clones. When we compared the transcriptomes of CD8_TE cells between the single, small and large clones post-SABR, we found high expression of GZMB and KLRC3 in cells with large clones, and GZMK, IL7R, and SELL in small and single clones. This suggested that T cells after SABR with large clones may have higher cytotoxicity than those with small and single clones. CONCLUSION Our study identified systemic T cell activation after SABR at single-cell resolution, providing unprecedented insight into the immune-modulatory role of SABR in early-stage NSCLC.

CT radiomics can predict disease progression within 6 months after chimeric antigen receptor-modified T-cell therapy in relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients. Clin Radiol 2023; 78:e707-e717. [PMID: 37407367 DOI: 10.1016/j.crad.2023.05.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2023] [Revised: 05/05/2023] [Accepted: 05/30/2023] [Indexed: 07/07/2023]
Abstract
AIM To predict progression within 6 months after chimeric antigen receptor-modified (CAR) T-cell therapy for relapsed/refractory (R/R) B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL) patients by radiomic indexes derived from contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) examinations. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy R/R B-NHL patients who underwent CECT before treatment with CAR T-cells were examined retrospectively. In total, 297 volumes of interest for lesions were segmented from CECT images. Patients without and with disease progression were assigned to groups 1 and 2, respectively. Radiomic and combined predictive models were constructed by three machine-learning algorithms using features from the training set, respectively. Furthermore, predictive models were constructed based on multi-lesion-based and largest-lesion-based radiomic features, respectively. RESULTS In the test set, no marked differences were observed between the areas under the curves (AUCs) of the combined and radiomic models for all three machine-learning algorithms (all p>0.05). Differences in machine-learning algorithms did not significantly affect the predictive performances of the models. Radiomics and combined models constructed with multi-lesion-based radiomic features showed better predictive performances than those applying largest-lesion-based radiomic features (all p<0.05 for comparisons between combined models). CONCLUSION CECT-based radiomic features may be applied to predict disease progression in R/R B-NHL patients within 6 months after CAR T-cell treatment, and radiomic features from multiple lesions may have better predictive efficacy. Different machine-learning algorithms may not show significant differences in prediction performance.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) The risk of temporal lobe injury (TLI) in recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (rNPC) patients with intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is high. We aimed to construct the normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) model for TLI of rNPC and establish a risk predictive model. MATERIALS/METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 103 patients with rNPC who had received two courses of IMRT in our institution. The 206 temporal lobes (TLs) of these patients were randomly divided into a training (n = 144) and validation group (n = 62). We determined the mean value of the following parameters to construct the Lyman NTCP model: TD50(1) (the dose with a 50% probability of complications to an organ when all volumes are irradiated), m [steepness of the dose-response at TD50(1)], and n (the parameter related to volume effect). The most predictive dosimetric parameter and clinical variables were integrated in Cox proportional hazards models. A nomogram was developed for predicting risk of TLs. RESULTS The parameters of the fitted NTCP model were TD50(1) = 107.84 Gy (95% confidence interval (CI), [97.15, 118.54]), m = 0.16 (95% CI, [0.14, 0.19]), and n = 0.04 (95% CI, [0.01, 0.06]). The cumulative dose delivered to 0.1 cm3 of temporal lobe volume (D0.1cc-c) was the most predictive dosimetric parameter for TLI. The Kaplan-Meier curves showed a significant difference in 2-year TLI-free survival among different risk groups according to the total score of nomograms. CONCLUSION The TD50(1) of TLI in patients with rNPC is 107.84 Gy in Lyman NTCP model. The nomogram model can accurately predict the risk of TLI for individual.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Immune checkpoint inhibitors combined with (chemo)radiotherapy could be an attractive treatment strategy for patients with cervical cancer (CC), but the expression of some immune checkpoint proteins in cervical cancer and their impact on patient survival remains largely unknown. Here, we investigated the predictive value of T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domain (TIGIT), V-domain Ig suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA), and lymphocyte-activation gene-3 (LAG-3) expression in pathological tissues of CC patients treated with (chemo)radiotherapy. MATERIALS/METHODS We enrolled 175 CC patients who received (chemo)radiotherapy and collected their pre-treatment tumor tissue sections for the immunohistochemical stain of TIGIT, VISTA, and LAG-3. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) after (chemo)radiotherapy. Univariate and multivariate COX proportional hazards regression models were employed to analyze potential risk factors for patient survival. RESULTS Kaplan-Meier survival analyses showed that the PFS and OS of patients with positive expression of TIGIT and VISTA were significantly shorter than those patients with negative expression of the proteins (all p<0.05). However, we did not reach the same conclusion in the analysis of LAG-3 (both p>0.05). Univariate COX regression analysis showed that the positive expression of TIGIT and VISTA are related to poor PFS and OS (both HR>1.0 and p<0.05). Multivariate COX regression analysis showed that TIGIT positive and VISTA positive patients have shorter PFS and OS (both HR>1.0 and p<0.05). There is no significant correlation between LAG-3 expression and PFS or OS in these CC patients treated with (chemo)radiotherapy. CONCLUSION We revealed that positive TIGIT and VISTA expression could predict worse prognosis in cervical cancer patients treated with (chemo)radiotherapy, which may help to refine the treatment strategies of combining immune checkpoint inhibitors and radiotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Re-radiotherapy (re-RT) is the main treatment for locally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (lrNPC) patients, and commonly led to radiation-induced nasopharyngeal (NP) necrosis, which was lethal but rare study has focused on it. The aim of this study was to evaluate the cause and impact of radiation-induced NP necrosis in lrNPC patients who received re-RT. MATERIALS/METHODS Totally 252 lrNPC patients who received re-RT between January 2013 and December 2020 were retrospectively collected. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) no NP necrosis before re-RT; (2) complete medical records, including treatment, clinical and dosimetric information; (3) conventional fractionated radiotherapy. All patients received intensity-modulated radiotherapy ± chemotherapy. Radiation-induced NP necrosis was diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging and/or electronic nasopharyngoscopy. Dosimetric factors of the planning target volume of primary tumor (PTVp) were extracted from the dose-volume histogram (DVH), which was rescaled to an equivalent dose of 2 Gy per fraction (EQD 2 Gy) using a linear quadratic model. Logistic regression was used to identify the independent prognostic factors for generating the nomogram. RESULTS With a median follow-up of 44.63 months (inter-quartile range [IQR], 27.70 - 69.20 months), 47.6% of patients (120/252) occurred radiation-induced NP necrosis, which mostly happened within 1 year post re-RT (median [IQR], 5.83 [3.37 - 11.57] months). The 3-year overall survival was 83.0% vs 39.7% (P<0.001) in lrNPC patients with or without radiation-induced NP necrosis. Except for the fractionated dose, other dosimetric factors of PTVp were not significantly different between two groups, including D98 (dose to 98% of PTVp), D50, D2 and homogeneity index (Table 1). Furthermore, multivariate analysis showed that continuous variable age (HR [95% CI]: 1.04 [1.02 - 1.07], P = 0.003) and tumor volume (HR [95% CI]: 1.02 [1.01 - 1.03], P<0.001), and fractionated dose > 2.22 Gy (HR [95% CI]: 2.36 [1.32 - 4.21], P = 0.004) were independent factors in predicting radiation-induced NP necrosis, which yielded a C-index of 0.742 (95% CI, 0.682 - 0.803) for OS in the nomogram. CONCLUSION The incidence of radiation-induced NP necrosis was high in lrNPC patients who received re-RT. Patients with older age, larger tumor volume or receiving fractionated dose over 2.22 Gy were more easily to suffer NP necrosis, which need to explore novel treatment strategies to improve patients' survivals.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Our previous study identified the tumor-promoting role of PODXL in cervical cancer (CC), but it remains largely unknown for its impact on immune response and survival in CC patients received radiochemotherapy. Here, we investigated this issue using single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) and Bulk RNA-sequencing data. MATERIALS/METHODS We performed scRNA-seq on 29,453 cells in five tumor tissues from CC patients, employed 141 bulk RNA-seq data from TCGA, and included a cohort of 168 CC patients treated with radiochemotherapy for immunostaining of PODXL protein. Gene Ontology (GO) and Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) analysis were performed for functional annotation. Immune cell infiltration analysis by single sample GSEA. Immunostaining validation was performed on tumor tissues from 168 CC patients treated with radiochemotherapy. RESULTS Single-cell analyses revealed the specific expression of PODXL on endothelial cells and divided these cells into PODXLhigh and PODXLlow cells. GO and GSEA analyses showed that PODXLhigh cells had lower levels of leukocyte cell-cell adhesion, immunoglobulin mediated immune response and cytokine production than PODXLlow cells. We further found that PODXLhigh cells could reduce macrophage recruitment through PODXL-ACKR1 and ultimately shape the immune suppressive tumor microenvironment. Analyses of bulk RNA-seq data showed that PODXL expression was negatively correlated with survival of CC patients; moreover, compared to the PODXLlow group, the infiltration of CD8+ T cells, B cells, Th1, and follicular helper T cells were lower in the PODXLhigh group (all P values < 0.05). Furthermore, in the immunostaining validation cohort, multivariate Cox analysis showed that PODXL expression was negatively correlated with the survival for CC patients who underwent radiochemotherapy (all P values < 0.05). CONCLUSION We revealed the potential immune suppressive role of PODXL in CC patients treated with radiochemotherapy, which may provide a candidate therapy target combined with radiochemotherapy.

Abstract
Fatty liver disease has undergone a major name change, with metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MASLD) replacing nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. The definition of MASLD no longer requires the exclusion of other co-existing liver diseases but instead associates hepatic steatosis with overweight/obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, or metabolic disorders and clearly defines the amount of alcohol consumption. The new definition also introduces the concepts of metabolic-related alcoholic liver disease and cryptogenic fatty liver disease. These changes will bring new challenges and opportunities for the design of clinical trials of fatty liver disease drugs and the selection of target populations.

Abstract
Objective: A higher incidence of atrial fibrillation is associated with obstructive sleep apnea. The effects of continuous positive airway pressure on atrial fibrillation have been studied in observational studies and randomized controlled trials. We therefore conducted this meta-analysis to assess the effect of continuous positive airway pressure on the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation. Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted in Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane, Web of Science, Wanfang Data and CNKI databases from inception to October 2022. We included cohort studies and randomized controlled trials containing atrial fibrillation situation after catheter ablation with and without continuous positive airway pressure therapy. The random effects model was used to assess odds ratios (OR) and confidence intervals (CI). I2 was used to assess the heterogeneity. Results: Eight studies with a total of 1 395 patients with obstructive sleep apnea met the inclusion criteria. Continuous positive airway pressure therapy decreased atrial fibrillation recurrence by 61% (OR=0.392, 95%CI: 0.267-0.576, I2=37.6%). Subgroup analysis showed that the protective effect was more significant in groups with more hypertension patients (OR=0.272 vs. 0.550, 95%CI: 0.165-0.449 vs. 0.329-0.922). Conclusions: Continuous positive airway pressure therapy reduces the recurrence rate of atrial fibrillation. Patients with hypertension are more likely to benefit from it.

A descriptive analysis of first trimester urinary concentrations of 14 bisphenol analogues in the MIREC Canadian pregnancy cohort. Int J Hyg Environ Health 2023; 253:114225. [PMID: 37542835 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijheh.2023.114225] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2023] [Revised: 07/14/2023] [Accepted: 07/22/2023] [Indexed: 08/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Concern over the health effects of BPA, particularly for the developing fetus, has led to an increasing use of bisphenol analogues in industrial and consumer products, which may be as hormonally active as BPA. Biomonitoring data for many bisphenol analogues, especially in pregnant populations, are limited. METHODS We measured concentrations of 14 bisphenol analogues in 1st trimester urine samples (n = 1851) from the Maternal-Infant Research on Environmental Chemicals (MIREC) Canadian pregnancy cohort (2008-2011). We examined patterns of exposure according to sociodemographic and sampling characteristics as well as occupation and frequency of consumption of canned fish within the previous 3 months. RESULTS BPA was detected in 89% of participants with a specific gravity standardized geometric mean concentration of 0.990 μg/L. Biphenol 4,4' (BP 4,4'), 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl ether (DHDPE), and bisphenol E (BPE) were detected in >97% of participants. Bisphenol F (BPF) and bisphenol S (BPS) were detected in >60% of participants. Specific gravity standardized geometric mean concentrations of these 5 compounds ranged from 0.024 to 0.564 μg/L. Nine bisphenol analogues were detected in <9% of participants. Concentrations of BP 4,4', DHDPE, and BPE were higher in younger women and those with higher pre-pregnancy BMI, lower household income, lower education, and among smokers. We found a similar pattern of differences in BPF for age, education, and smoking status while BPS similarly differed across categories of pre-pregnancy BMI. Participants who were unemployed or working in the service industry had higher molar sum of 7 bisphenol analogues than those working in healthcare, education, or an office setting. Canned fish consumption was not related to bisphenol analogue concentrations. CONCLUSION BP 4,4', DHDPE, BPE, BPF, and BPS were highly detected in 1st trimester urine samples in this large pan-Canadian pregnancy cohort. This suggests widespread exposure to these analogues around 2008-2011 and warrants further investigation into associations with health outcomes.

Evaluating the effect of phenolic compounds as hydrogen acceptors when ruminal methanogenesis is inhibited in vitro – Part 2. Dairy goats. Animal 2023; 17:100789. [PMID: 37087998 DOI: 10.1016/j.animal.2023.100789] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2022] [Revised: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 03/20/2023] [Indexed: 03/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Most mitigation strategies to reduce enteric methane (CH4) production in the rumen induce an excess of rumen dihydrogen (H2) that is expelled and consequently not redirected to the synthesis of metabolites that can be utilised by the ruminant. We hypothesised that phenolic compounds can be potential H2 acceptors when added to the diet, as they can be degraded to compounds that may be beneficial for the animal, using part of the H2 available when ruminal methanogenesis is inhibited. We performed four in vitro incubation experiments using rumen inoculum from Murciano-Granadina adult goats: Experiment 1 examined the inhibitory potential of Asparagopsis taxiformis (AT) at different concentrations (0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5% of the substrate on a DM basis) in 24 h incubations; Experiment 2 investigated the effect of a wide range of phenolic compounds (phenol, catechol, resorcinol, hydroquinone, pyrogallol, phloroglucinol, gallic acid and formic acid) at different doses (0, 2, 4, and 6 mM) on rumen fermentation for 24 h; Experiment 3 evaluated the combined effect of each phenolic compound at 6 mM with AT at 2% DM in sequential batch cultures for 5 days; and Experiment 4 examined the dose-response effect of phloroglucinol at different concentrations (0, 6, 16, 26 and 36 mM) combined with AT in sequential batch cultures for 5 days. Results from Experiment 1 confirmed that AT at 2% DM substantially inhibited CH4 production while significantly increasing H2 accumulation and decreasing the acetate:propionate ratio. Results from Experiment 2 showed that phenolic compounds did not negatively affect rumen fermentation at any dose. In Experiment 3, each phenolic compound at 6 mM combined with AT at 2% DM inhibited CH4 production. Phloroglucinol numerically decreased H2 accumulation and significantly increased total gas production (TGP), volatile fatty acid (VFA) production and the acetate:propionate ratio. In Experiment 4, phloroglucinol at increasing doses supplemented with AT at 2% DM significantly decreased H2 accumulation and the abundances of archaea, protozoa and fungi abundances, and increased TGP, total VFA production and the acetate:propionate ratio in a dose-dependent way. In conclusion, combined treatment with AT and phloroglucinol was successful to mitigate CH4 production while preventing the accumulation of H2, leading to an increase in acetate and total VFA production and therefore an improvement in rumen fermentation in goats.

Evaluating the effect of phenolic compounds as hydrogen acceptors when ruminal methanogenesis is inhibited in vitro – Part 1. Dairy cows. Animal 2023; 17:100788.

Abstract
Some antimethanogenic feed additives for ruminants promote rumen dihydrogen (H2) accumulation potentially affecting the optimal fermentation of diets. We hypothesised that combining an H2 acceptor with a methanogenesis inhibitor can decrease rumen H2 build-up and improve the production of metabolites that can be useful for the host ruminant. We performed three in vitro incubation experiments using rumen fluid from lactating Holstein cows: Experiment 1 examined the effect of phenolic compounds (phenol, catechol, resorcinol, hydroquinone, pyrogallol, phloroglucinol, and gallic acid) at 0, 2, 4, and 6 mM on ruminal fermentation for 24 h; Experiment 2 examined the combined effect of each phenolic compound from Experiment 1 at 6 mM with two different methanogenesis inhibitors (Asparagopsis taxiformis or 2-bromoethanesulfonate (BES)) for 24 h incubation; Experiment 3 examined the effect of a selected phenolic compound, phloroglucinol, with or without BES over a longer term using sequential incubations for seven days. Results from Experiment 1 showed that phenolic compounds, independently of the dose, did not negatively affect rumen fermentation, whereas results from Experiment 2 showed that phenolic compounds did not decrease H2 accumulation or modify CH4 production when methanogenesis was decreased by up to 75% by inhibitors. In Experiment 3, after three sequential incubations, phloroglucinol combined with BES decreased H2 accumulation by 72% and further inhibited CH4 production, compared to BES alone. Interestingly, supplementation with phloroglucinol (alone or in combination with the CH4 inhibitor) decreased CH4 production by 99% and the abundance of methanogenic archaea, with just a nominal increase in H2 accumulation. Supplementation of phloroglucinol also increased total volatile fatty acid (VFA), acetate, butyrate, and total gas production, and decreased ammonia concentration. This study indicates that some phenolic compounds, particularly phloroglucinol, which are naturally found in plants, could improve VFA production, decrease H2 accumulation and synergistically decrease CH4 production in the presence of antimethanogenic compounds.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of Liangge Powder against sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI) . Methods: From April to December 2021, the key components of Liangge Powder and its targets against sepsis-induced ALI were analyzed by network pharmacology, and to enrich for relevant signaling pathways. A total of 90 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to sham-operated group, sepsis-induced ALI model group (model group), Liangge Powder low, medium and high dose group, ten rats in the sham-operated group and 20 rats in each of the remaining four groups. Sepsis-induced ALI model was established by cecal ligation and puncture. Sham-operated group: gavage with 2 ml saline and no surgical treatment. Model group: surgery was performed and 2 ml saline was gavaged. Liangge Powder low, medium and high dose groups: surgery and gavage of Liangge Powder 3.9, 7.8 and 15.6 g/kg, respectively. To measure the wet/dry mass ratio of rats lung tissue and evaluate the permeability of alveolar capillary barrier. Lung tissue were stained with hematoxylin and eosin for histomorphological analysis. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin (IL) -6 and IL-1β in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The relative protein expression levels of p-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), p-protein kinase B (AKT), and p-ertracellular regulated protein kinases (ERK) were detected via Western blot analysis. Results: Network pharmacology analysis indicated that 177 active compounds of Liangge Powder were selected. A total of 88 potential targets of Liangge Powder on sepsis-induced ALI were identified. 354 GO terms of Liangge Powder on sepsis-induced ALI and 108 pathways were identified using GO and KEGG analysis. PI3K/AKT signaling pathway was recognized to play an important role for Liangge Powder against sepsis-induced ALI. Compared with the sham-operated group, the lung tissue wet/dry weight ratio of rats in the model group (6.35±0.95) was increased (P<0.001). HE staining showed the destruction of normal structure of lung tissue. The levels of IL-6 [ (392.36±66.83) pg/ml], IL-1β [ (137.11±26.83) pg/ml] and TNF-α [ (238.34±59.36) pg/ml] were increased in the BALF (P<0.001, =0.001, <0.001), and the expression levels of p-PI3K, p-AKT and p-ERK1/2 proteins (1.04±0.15, 0.51±0.04, 2.31±0.41) were increased in lung tissue (P=0.002, 0.003, 0.005). The lung histopathological changes were reduced in each dose group of Liangge Powder compared with the model group. Compared with the model group, the wet/dry weight ratio of lung tissue (4.29±1.26) was reduced in the Liangge Powder medium dose group (P=0.019). TNF-α level [ (147.85±39.05) pg/ml] was reduced (P=0.022), and the relative protein expression levels of p-PI3K (0.37±0.18) and p-ERK1/2 (1.36±0.07) were reduced (P=0.008, 0.017). The wet/dry weight ratio of lung tissue (4.16±0.66) was reduced in the high-dose group (P=0.003). Levels of IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-α[ (187.98±53.28) pg/ml, (92.45±25.39) pg/ml, (129.77±55.94) pg/ml] were reduced (P=0.001, 0.027, 0.018), and relative protein expression levels of p-PI3K, p-AKT and p-ERK1/2 (0.65±0.05, 0.31±0.08, 1.30±0.12) were reduced (P=0.013, 0.018, 0.015) . Conclusion: Liangge Powder has therapeutic effects in rats with sepsis-induced ALI, and the mechanism may be related to the inhibition of ERK1/2 and PI3K/AKT pathway activation in lung tissue.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the role and significance of ultrasound-guided inferior parathyroid gland (IPTG) localization in searching and protecting parathyroid glands before thyroid surgery. Methods: A randomized controlled trial study was conducted. A total of 306 patients (433 cases of lateral parathyroidectomy) who underwent primary thyroidectomy and central lymph node dissection in Beijing Tongren Hosipital from March to October 2021 were enrolled. In order to locate IPTG more quickly and effectively, new IPTG classification and the definition of quadrant position were carried out. The patients were divided into the study group (n=228) and the control group (n=205). The study group underwent ultrasound-guided IPTG examination before operation and measured the distance between the IPTG and the lower pole of the thyroid and the midline of the trachea. During the operation, the IPTG was found and protected depending on the localization. The control group did not use any auxiliary preoperative positioning method. The distribution ratio of IPTG and the coincidence rate between intraoperative validation and ultrasound localization were calculated. Results: There were 306 patients enrolled in the final analysis (95 males and 211 females), with a median age of 41 years old (18-70). Type Ⅱ and Ⅲ IPTG accounted for 77.2% (176/228) of the total cases. The total coincidence rate ranged from 72.8% to 79.4% in different IPTG groups. Type Ⅲ and quadrant 2 IPTG had the highest coincidence rate [92.4% (73/79) and 92.9% (79/85), respectively]. The study group had better in situ retention rate [82.0% (187/228) vs 73.2% (150/205), χ2=4.896, P=0.027] and less implantation rate [8.8% (20/228) vs 16.1% (33/205), χ2=5.393, P=0.020] than those of the control group. The in situ retention rate were better in type Ⅲ IPTG group, compared with those of the control group [94.9% (74/78) vs 77.4% (48/62), χ2=7.898, P=0.005]. There was no permanent hypoparathyroidism in two groups and the temporary hypoparathyroidism rate was 32.0% (24/75) and 34.6% (18/52), respectively (χ2=0.095, P=0.758). Conclusion: Ultrasound-guided IPTG localization examination has important implications for searching and protecting IPTG during operation, which can significantly increase in situ retention rate of IPTG and decrease the implantation rate.

Abstract
Objective: To develop a designing software of digital oral positioning stent for radiotherapy of head and neck, and to compare its clinical effect with traditional oral positioning stents made by lost wax process. Methods: Thirty patients with nasopharyngeal cancer who received oral examination before radiotherapy in the prosthodontics department from July to December, 2021, were selected and divided into three groups according to the patients' wishes, 10 per group: one group without radiotherapy oral positioning stents, one group with traditional oral positioning stents (traditional stents group), and the third group with digital oral positioning stents (digital stents group). Patients' ages range from 20 years old to 71 years old. There were 15 males and 15 females involved in this study. The manufacturing time and comfort of the two positioning stents were evaluated, and the radiation doses of the radiotherapy target areas and surrounding healthy tissues were statistically analyzed at the end of radiotherapy. Results: The manufacturing time of digital stents group [(209±7) min] was much less than that of traditional stents group [(490±10) min] (t=69.85, P<0.001). The comfort of patients' wearing of digital stents [first wearing: 5 (3, 6) score; at the end of radiotherapy: 4 (3, 5) score] was better than that of traditional ones [first wearing: 7 (3, 7) score; at the end of radiotherapy: 7 (3, 7) score] (U=22.00, P=0.033; U=20.50, P=0.023). There was no significant differences in the target radiation doses among the three groups, and the radiation doses of tongue [traditional stents group: (36.74±5.45) Gy; digital stents group: (35.96±4.98) Gy] and mandible [traditional stents group: (35.46±4.19) Gy; digital stents group: (35.34±3.98) Gy] were significantly lower in the patients wearing oral positioning stents than in the patients without oral positioning stents [tongue: (41.49±4.46) Gy; madible: (39.32±3.52) Gy] (P<0.05). Conclusions: Oral positioning stents for nasopharyngeal carcinoma radiotherapy could greatly reduce the exposure doses of tongue and madible of patients. Digital oral positioning stents designed and manufactured by independently developed software had higher production efficiency than the traditional method, and patients' evaluation of comfort was better.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effects and mechanism of negative pressure microenvironment on the neogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Methods: The experimental research methods were adopted. The third to the fifth passage of HUVECs in the logarithmic growth stage were used for the subsequent experiments. Three batches of cells were taken, with each batch of cells being divided into normal control group and negative pressure treatment alone group (both routinely cultured for 24 h), and 17-allylamino-17-demethoxy-geldanamycin (17-AAG) alone group and 17-AAG+negative pressure treatment group (both cultured with 17-AAG for 24 h). In addition, the intermittent negative pressure suction, with the negative pressure value of -5.33 kPa (suction for 30 s, pause for 10 s) was continuously applied for 8 h on cells in the two negative pressure treatment groups using an automatic three-dimensional cell gradient negative pressure loading device designed and developed by ourselves. After the treatment of the first batch of cells, the cell proliferation level was detected by cell counting kit 8 method at 0 (immediately), 24, 48, and 72 h of culture, with the number of samples being 6. After the treatment of the second batch of cells, the scratch experiment was performed. At 12 h after scratching, the cell migration was observed under an inverted phase contrast microscope and the cell migration rate was calculated, with the number of samples being 3. After the treatment of the third batch of cells, the tubule formation experiment was conducted. After 6 h of culture, the tubulogenesis was observed under an inverted phase contrast microscope and the total tubule length and the number of branch nodes of cells were calculated, with the number of samples being 3. The cells were taken and divided into normal control group, negative pressure treatment alone group, and 17-AAG+negative pressure treatment group. The cells were treated the same as in the previous corresponding group. After the treatment, Western blotting was used to detect the protein expressions of heat shock protein 90 (HSP90), caveolin 1, endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), and eNOS phosphorylation site 1177 in the cells, and the eNOS phosphorylation site 1177/eNOS ratio was calculated, with the number of samples being 3; co-immunoprecipitation (co-precipitating HSP90 and caveolin 1, caveolin 1 and eNOS) and Western blotting were used to detect the protein expressions of caveolin 1 and eNOS in the cells, with the number of samples being 3; the protein co-localization of HSP90 and caveolin 1 and that of caveolin 1 and eNOS in the cells was assessed by immunofluorescence double staining. The molecular docking prediction of caveolin 1 and eNOS was processed by HADDOCK 2.4 protein-protein docking program. Data were statistically analyzed with analysis of variance for factorial design, one-way analysis of variance, and least significant difference method. Results: Compared with that in normal control group, the cell proliferation level in 17-AAG alone group was significantly decreased at culture hour of 24, 48, and 72 after the treatment (P<0.01), while the cell proliferation level in negative pressure treatment alone group was significantly increased at culture hour of 24, 48, and 72 after the treatment (P<0.01). Compared with that in 17-AAG alone group, the cell proliferation level in 17-AAG+negative pressure treatment group was significantly increased at culture hour of 48 and 72 after the treatment (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with that in negative pressure treatment alone group, the cell proliferation level in 17-AAG+negative pressure treatment group was significantly decreased at culture hour of 24, 48, and 72 after the treatment (P<0.01). At 12 h after scratching, compared with (39.9±2.7)% in normal control group, the cell migration rate in 17-AAG alone group was significantly decreased ((10.7±2.7)%, P<0.01), while the cell migration rate in negative pressure treatment alone group was significantly increased ((61.9±2.4)%, P<0.01). Compared with those in 17-AAG alone group, the cell migration rate in 17-AAG+negative pressure treatment group was significantly increased ((37.7±3.7)%, P<0.01). Compared with that in negative pressure treatment alone group, the cell migration rate in 17-AAG+negative pressure treatment group was significantly decreased (P<0.01). At culture hour of 6 after the treatment, compared with those in normal control group, the total length of the tube formed by the cells in 17-AAG alone group was significantly shortened (P<0.05) and the number of branch nodes was significantly reduced (P<0.05), while the total length of the tube formed by the cells in negative pressure treatment alone group was significantly prolonged (P<0.01) and the number of branch nodes was dramatically increased (P<0.01). Compared with that in 17-AAG alone group, the number of branch nodes of the tube formed by the cells was significantly increased in 17-AAG+negative pressure treatment group (P<0.05). Compared with those in negative pressure treatment alone group, the total length of the tube formed by the cells in 17-AAG+negative pressure treatment group was significantly shortened (P<0.01) and the number of branch nodes was significantly reduced (P<0.01). Western blotting detection showed that after treatment, the overall comparison of eNOS and caveolin 1 protein expressions among the three groups of cells showed no statistically significant differences (P>0.05). The expression of HSP90 protein and the eNOS phosphorylation site 1177/eNOS ratio in the cells of negative pressure treatment alone group were significantly increased (P<0.01) compared with those in normal control group. Compared with those in negative pressure treatment alone group, the HSP90 protein expression and the eNOS phosphorylation site 1177/eNOS ratio in the cells of 17-AAG+negative pressure treatment group were significantly decreased (P<0.01). Co-immunoprecipitation and Western blotting detection after the treatment showed that compared with those in normal control group, the expression of caveolin 1 protein in the cells of negative pressure treatment alone group was significantly increased (P<0.01), while the protein expression of eNOS was significantly decreased (P<0.05). Compared with those in negative pressure treatment alone group, the expression of caveolin 1 protein in the cells of 17-AAG+negative pressure treatment group was significantly decreased (P<0.01), while the protein expression of eNOS was significantly increased (P<0.01). After the treatment, compared with those in normal control group, the co-localization of HSP90 and caveolin 1 protein in the cells of negative pressure treatment alone group was significantly increased, while the co-localization of caveolin 1 and eNOS protein was significantly decreased. Compared with those in negative pressure treatment alone group, the co-localization of HSP90 and caveolin 1 protein in the cells of 17-AAG+negative pressure treatment group was significantly decreased, while the co-localization of caveolin 1 and eNOS protein was significantly increased. Molecular docking prediction suggested that caveolin 1 interacted strongly with eNOS and inhibited the 1177 site phosphorylation of eNOS. Conclusions: The negative pressure microenvironment may inhibit the binding of caveolin 1 to eNOS by promoting the binding of HSP90 to caveolin 1 in HUVECs, so as to relieve the inhibition of 1177 site phosphorylation of eNOS by caveolin 1, thereby promoting the proliferation, migration, and tubulogenesis of HUVECs, and ultimately promoting the neogenesis of HUVECs.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought significant challenges to clinicians caring for liver transplant (LT) recipients. Researchers have sought to better understand the risk and clinical outcomes of LT recipients infected with COVID-19 globally, however, there is a paucity of data from within Canada.
Aims
Our multi-center study aims to examine the characteristics and clinical outcomes of LT patients with COVID-19 in Canada.
Methods
We identified a retrospective cohort of adult LT recipients with RT-PCR confirmed COVID-19 from 7 Canadian tertiary care centers between March 2020 and June 2021. Demographic and clinical data were compiled by clinicians within those centers. We identified liver enzyme profile at the time of COVID-19 infection, immunosuppression type and post-infection adjustments, rate of hospitalization, ICU admission, mechanical ventilation, and death.
Results
A total of 49 patients with a history of LT and COVID-19 infection were identified. Twenty nine patients (59%) were male, the median time from LT was 66 months (1, 128) and the median age at COVID-19 infection was 59 years (52, 65). At COVID-19 diagnosis, the median ALT was 37 U/L (21, 41), AST U/L was 34 (20, 37), ALP U/L was 156 (88, 156), Total Bilirubin was 11 umol/L (7, 14), and INR was 1.1 (1.0, 1.1). The majority of patients (92%) were on tacrolimus monotherapy or a combination of tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF); median tacrolimus level at COVID-19 diagnosis was 5.3 ug/L (4.0, 8.1). Immunosuppression was modified in 8 (16%) patients post-infection; either the tacrolimus dose was reduced or MMF was held. One patient developed acute cellular rejection which recovered after re-initiation of the prior regimen. Eighteen patients (37%) required hospitalization, 6 (12%) were treated with dexamethasone, and 3 (6%) required ICU admission and mechanical ventilation. Four patients (8%) died due to complications of COVID-19. On univariate analysis, neither age, sex, co-morbidities nor duration post-transplant were associated with risk of hospitalization.
Conclusions
In our national retrospective study, approximately 40% of patients required hospitalization with a mortality rate of < 10%. Previous studies have shown proximity to LT as an independent factor for mortality with COVID-19; the median time from LT for our patients was 5 years, which may explain the lower mortality rate. Of note, the median tacrolimus levels were much lower in comparison to the target of 8–10 ug/L used in the first year post-transplant. As the landscape of COVID-19 changes with vaccination, evolving treatments, and increasing rates of variant transmission, additional studies are required to continue identifying trends in clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Periodontal ligament derived stem cells (PDLSCs) are capable of differentiating into multiple cell types and inducing a promising immunomodulation for tissue regeneration and disease treatment. However, it is still challenging to develop a practical approach to activate endogenous stem cells for tissue self-healing and regeneration. In this study, transcriptome analysis reveals that resveratrol promotes PDLSC stemness through activation of stem cell, osteoprogenitor, and chondroprogenitor markers. Self-renewal and multipotent differentiation abilities are also improved in resveratrol-treated PDLSCs. In addition, immunomodulation of PDLSCs is dramatically increased after resveratrol treatment. Mechanistically, we show that resveratrol activates ERK/WNT crosstalk through elevation of olfactory and growth factor signaling pathways to upregulate the expression levels of RUNX2 and FASL for osteogenesis and immunomodulation, respectively. By using a periodontitis animal model, administration of resveratrol partially rescues bone loss through activation of endogenous somatic stem cells and inhibition of inflammatory T-cell infiltration. Taken together, our findings identify a novel pharmacological approach to achieve autotherapies for endogenous tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Artificial intelligence provides a promising solution for streamlining COVID-19 diagnoses; however, concerns surrounding security and trustworthiness impede the collection of large-scale representative medical data, posing a considerable challenge for training a well-generalized model in clinical practices. To address this, we launch the Unified CT-COVID AI Diagnostic Initiative (UCADI), where the artificial intelligence (AI) model can be distributedly trained and independently executed at each host institution under a federated learning framework without data sharing. Here we show that our federated learning framework model considerably outperformed all of the local models (with a test sensitivity/specificity of 0.973/0.951 in China and 0.730/0.942 in the United Kingdom), achieving comparable performance with a panel of professional radiologists. We further evaluated the model on the hold-out (collected from another two hospitals without the federated learning framework) and heterogeneous (acquired with contrast materials) data, provided visual explanations for decisions made by the model, and analysed the trade-offs between the model performance and the communication costs in the federated training process. Our study is based on 9,573 chest computed tomography scans from 3,336 patients collected from 23 hospitals located in China and the United Kingdom. Collectively, our work advanced the prospects of utilizing federated learning for privacy-preserving AI in digital health.

Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) provides a promising substitution for streamlining COVID-19 diagnoses. However, concerns surrounding security and trustworthiness impede the collection of large-scale representative medical data, posing a considerable challenge for training a well-generalised model in clinical practices. To address this, we launch the Unified CT-COVID AI Diagnostic Initiative (UCADI), where the AI model can be distributedly trained and independently executed at each host institution under a federated learning framework (FL) without data sharing. Here we show that our FL model outperformed all the local models by a large yield (test sensitivity /specificity in China: 0.973/0.951, in the UK: 0.730/0.942), achieving comparable performance with a panel of professional radiologists. We further evaluated the model on the hold-out (collected from another two hospitals leaving out the FL) and heterogeneous (acquired with contrast materials) data, provided visual explanations for decisions made by the model, and analysed the trade-offs between the model performance and the communication costs in the federated training process. Our study is based on 9,573 chest computed tomography scans (CTs) from 3,336 patients collected from 23 hospitals located in China and the UK.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction/Objective
In rare cases, the conventional immunofixation gel electrophoresis technique fails to detect the light chain of an M-protein. We report a case of immunoglobulin (Ig) D multiple myeloma with a hidden lambda (λ) light chain.
Methods/Case Report
Capillary electrophoresis (CE) (Sebia CAPILLARYS 2) was used to detect and quantify M- proteins in serum specimens. Immunosubtraction (IS) on the CAPILLARYS 2 systems was used to identify the classes of M-proteins. Conventional gel immunofixation electrophoresis (IFE) was performed, using monospecific antisera for IgD, IgE, kappa (κ) or λ in the Sebia HYDRASYS system, and IgG, IgA, IgM, κ or λ in the Helena SPIFE3000 system. Beta-mercaptoethanol (BME) with Fluidil were used as reduction agents.
Results (if a Case Study enter NA)
Results of serum CE showed two abnormal peaks in beta 2 and gamma regions, suspected to be positive for M-proteins. IS results showed subtraction for λ light chain only in both peaks, suggesting two monoclonal λ light chains. In contrary, no monoclonal λ light chain was detected in gamma region by IFE (Sebia). Epitope masking in the folded monoclonal protein was suspected to cause the “hidden λ light chain” and was further investigated by two laboratory approaches. IFE performed on the Helena SPIFE3000 system found two λ bands in beta 2 and gamma regions, which was consistent with the results from IS. The treatment of BME with Fluidil helped unmasking the hidden epitope and revealed the λ band in gamma region on IFE (Sebia).
Conclusion
The medical laboratories should be aware of the described scenario. The failure to detect light chains of certain intact M-proteins is most likely due to the structurally inaccessibility of light chains. It is recommended that treatment with reduction agents or use of an alternative methodology or IS might be helpful for investigating suspected heavy chain only cases, due to the limitation of conventional methodology.
