Abstract
Both NO and GAs are essential for regulating various physiological processes and stress responses in plants. However, the interaction between these two molecules remains unclear. We investigated the distinct response patterns of Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 and GA synthesis functional deficiency mutants to NO by measuring root length. To investigate underlying mechanisms, we detected bioactive GA content using UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS, assessed the accumulation of ROS by chemical staining Arabidopsis roots. We also conducted RNA-seq analysis and compared results between Col-0 and ga3ox1, with and without SNP (as NO donor) treatment. Phenotypic results revealed that the inhibitory effect of NO on primary roots of Arabidopsis was primarily mediated by GA3-oxidase, rather than GA20-oxidase or GA2-oxidase. The content of GA3 decreased in Col-0 treated with SNP, whereas this decrease was not observed in ga3ox1. The deficiency of GA3-oxidase alleviated the buildup of H2 O2 in roots when treated with SNP. We identified 222 DEGs. GO annotation of these DEGs revealed that all top 20 GO terms were related to stress responses. Moreover, three DEGs were annotated to GA-related processes (DDF1, DDF2, EXPA1), and seven DEGs were associated with root development (RAV1, RGF2, ERF71, ZAT6, MYB77, XT1, and DTX50). In summary, NO inhibits primary root growth partially by repressing GA3-oxidase catalysed GA3 synthesis in Arabidopsis. ROS, Ca2+ , DDF1, DDF2, EXPA1 and seven root development-related genes may be involved in crosstalk between NO and GAs.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Current deep learning-based dose prediction methods can only predict a specific dose distribution. If the predicted dose is inaccurate, no more options can be selected. We proposed a novel dose prediction method named dose band prediction, which outcomes a spectrum of predicted dose distribution for planning and quality assurance (QA). MATERIALS/METHODS Upper-Band and Lower-Band losses were involved in 3D convolution neural networks to establish the Upper-Band Network (UBN) and Lower-Band Network (LBN). Each voxel's ideal dose spectrum (dose band) was defined by the maximum/minimum rational dose predicted by UBN/LBN. 130 NPC cases with Tomotherapy (dataset 1), 49 cervix cases with IMRT (dataset 2) and 43 cervix cases with VMAT (dataset 3) were enrolled to establish and evaluate our dose band prediction method. RESULTS The dose band prediction method can successfully predict a spectrum of doses. Upper-Band/Lower-Band presents maximum/minimum rational dose; Middle-Line presents the average of Upper-Band and Lower-Band. The clinical implement dose was used as the reference dose. We evaluated the maximum interval between the reference and Upper-Band/Middle-Line/Lower-Band doses, and the percentage dose difference was used as the evaluation method. The differences in PTV for Upper-Band, Middle-Line and Lower-Band in dataset 1 were within 2.47%, 0.54%, and 2.8%; in dataset 2, they were within 0.37%, 1.15%, and 2.69%; in dataset 3, they were within 0.96%, 0.35%, and 1.66%. The mean difference of OARs for the Upper-Band, Middle-Line and Lower-Band in dataset 1 were within 8.13%, 4.97%, and 8.19%; in dataset 2, they were within 8.8%, 4.48%, and 5.52%; in dataset 3, they were within 4.01%, 3.13%, and 5.79% (shown in Table 1). CONCLUSION Dose Band prediction achieved high-accuracy dose prediction by the Middle-Line. More importantly, the Upper-Band/Lower-Band provided a spectrum of possible rational doses. Our Dose Band prediction method is based on a specific loss function, so it can easily be applied in various network and patient cases. Dose Band prediction towards a more robust plan QA and planning assistance. Table 1. The maximum interval of doses (percentage dose difference, %).

Abstract
Salinity has a significant influence on the physiology of freshwater aquatic organisms. However, there are few studies on the hematology and immunology of freshwater fish under high salinity. In the current study, we aimed to analyze the adaptive effect of salt stress on L. capito spleen immune function and hematology using transcriptomic analysis. We replicated a L. capito acute salinity stress model, and collected blood and spleens from freshwater and saltwater fish. It was found that salinity affected significantly the numbers of leukocytes, lymphocytes, neutrophils, and red blood cells, as well as the content of haemoglobin. Salt treatment resulted in a significant increase in the expression of HSP70, HSP90, CAT, SOD, and GPX1 genes in L. capito spleens. Transcriptomic analysis revealed a total of 546 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in spleens, including 224 up-regulated DEGs and 322 down-regulated DEGs. In addition, GO enrichment analysis revealed immune system process, multicellular organismal process, and biological regulation of genes with the most differences in biological processes. KEGG enrichment analysis showed that the regulation of lipolysis in adipocyte, FoxO signaling pathway, Hematopoietic cell lineage signaling pathway, and HIF-1 signaling pathway were significantly enriched. L. capito adapted oxidative to high salinity through FoxO signaling pathway and immune to high salinity through Hematopoietic cell lineage signaling pathway. At the same time, we selected 10 DEGs for qRT-PCR detection, and the results showed that the qRT-PCR results were consistent with our RNA-Seq results, indicating that transcriptome sequencing was accurate and reliable. In conclusion, our results demonstrated that the improvement of antioxidant capacity, heat shock protein and immunity are involved in the molecular mechanism of L. capito adapting to high salinity. Our findings provided a rationale for further study on high salinity adaptation and related enrichment pathways.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the vaginal microecological status of vaginitis population and non-vaginitis population of gynecological female outpatients. Methods: A total of 30 265 women who visited the gynecological outpatient clinic of Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital from December 2018 to December 2020 completed vaginal microecological examination. After removing the follow-up patients, 23 181 women were divided into group with symptoms and signs of vaginitis (6 697 cases) and group without symptoms and signs of vaginitis (16 484 cases), according to whether the women with symptoms and signs of vaginitis or not. And the vaginal microecological status of the two groups was compared and analyzed. Results: (1) The total detection rate of vaginitis in the initial women was 34.87% (8 083/23 181), of which 46.10% (3 087/6 697) in group with symptoms and signs of vaginitis and 30.31% (4 996/16 484) in group without symptoms and signs of vaginitis, nearly 1/3 of the gynecological outpatients without signs and symptoms of vaginitis had vaginitis. (2) Among the types of simple vaginitis, vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) was the most frequent in group with symptoms and signs of vaginitis (16.01%, 1 072/6 697), followed by aerobic vaginitis (AV; 12.83%, 859/6 697), with significant differences compared with group without symptoms and signs of vaginitis (all P<0.001). There were no statistical differences between the two groups of bacterial vaginosis (BV) and trichomonal vaginitis (TV), indicating that BV and TV were more likely to be neglected (all P>0.05). (3) The proportion of various combinations of vaginitis among 2 632 cases of mixed vaginitis were, in descending order: BV+AV, VVC+AV, BV+AV+VVC, AV+TV, AV+TV+BV, BV+VVC. (4) Microecological analysis of 15 098 cases diagnosed with non-vaginitis had normal flora (including those with normal flora and those with normal flora but decreased function) in 14 013 cases (92.81%, 14 013/15 098), abnormal flora in 429 cases (2.84%, 429/15 098) and the BV intermediate in 656 cases (4.34%, 656/15 098); this indicated that the vast majority of the microecological tests were normal in the vaginal microbiota of those without vaginitis. Conclusions: Microecological examination could diagnose multiple pathogenic infections at once, and is especially important as a guide for the definitive diagnosis of mixed vaginitis and vaginitis with atypical clinical symptoms. Vaginal infections such as BV and TV that are easily overlooked should be concerned.

Abstract
Mercury is a heavy metal which causes irreversible toxicity to fish and is detected in aquatic environment around the world. We aimed to explore the relative mechanism of mercury exposure on the brain injury. In this study, high-throughput sequencing RNA-Seq technology was carried out to analyze the changes of gene expression of brain tissues exposed to mercury. A large number of differentially expressed genes were identified. And 366 genes were up-regulated and 688 genes were down-regulated. Gene Ontology (GO) functional enrichment analysis showed that DNA-templated and transport were highly enriched in the biological process. Membrane, nucleus, and cytoplasm were highly enriched in the cellular component, and metal ion binding and DNA binding were highly enriched in molecular function. The differential genes were enriched in ferroptosis, necroptosis, calcium signaling pathway, and ion channels. Real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) results demonstrated the selected genes exhibited the same trends with the RNA-Seq results, which indicates the transcriptome sequencing data is reliable. Our results may provide an insightful view for the toxic effects of mercury on brain injury of common carp.

Abstract
Aquatic organisms such as fish can accumulate high concentrations of arsenic (As), which has toxic effects on fish. However, whether the intestinal flora are involved in As damage to fish intestinal tissues and the underlying process are unclear. Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) were exposed to As (2.83 mg/L) in water for 30 days, and blood, muscle, intestine, and intestine samples were collected. Intestinal pathological sections were observed, and the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) levels in serum and the levels of As accumulation and tight junction-related factors in intestinal tissues were measured. The gut microbiota was analysed by 16S rRNA sequencing. The results showed that As treatment decreased the abundance of microbiota, increased the number of harmful bacteria, and decreased the number of beneficial bacteria in the intestine. In our experiment, the top 30 harmful and beneficial bacteria with the highest relative abundance were identified. Among the top 30 harmful and beneficial bacteria, As treatment resulted in a significant (P < 0.05) increase in harmful bacteria (such as Fusobacteriota, Bacteroidota (LPS-producing bacteria), Verrucomicrobiota, Bacteroides, Aeromonas, and Stenotrophomonas) and a significant (P < 0.05) decrease in beneficial bacteria (such as Actinobacteriota, Planctomycetota, Firmicutes, Reyranella, Akkermansia, and Pseudorhodobacter), which further demonstrated that As affects the abundance of intestinal flora. In addition, As exposure increased the LPS level in serum and the abundance of Bacteroidota (LPS-producing bacteria) in the intestine. Bacteroidota exhibits the six highest relative abundance at the phylum level, which indicates that LPS produced by Bacteroidota can increase the LPS level in serum. Additionally, the protein and gene levels of the tight junction markers ZO-1 and occludin in the intestine were reduced by As treatment, which further indicated that As exposure impaired the structural integrity of the intestine. In conclusion, the results obtained in our study indicate that the intestinal flora, LPS, and tight junctions participate in the impairment of the structural integrity of the common carp intestine resulting from As exposure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Probiotics may be an effective alternative to traditional drug therapy for constipation in the elderly. OBJECTIVE To assess the efficacy and safety of probiotics in managing constipation among the elderly. METHODS Eight databases were queried for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating probiotics' efficacy in addressing constipation among the elderly until January 2023. The meta-analysis was conducted employing R software version 4.2.2. The Cochrane risk of bias tool was utilized to evaluate the risk of bias, and the GRADE approach was employed to assess the credibility of the evidence concerning the efficacy of probiotics in treating constipation in older individuals. RESULTS A total of six RCTs involving 444 patients were included. Two studies were rated as low risk of bias. The meta-analysis findings revealed that probiotics, when compared to a placebo, led to an increase in stool frequency (MD = 1.02,95% CI [0.21, 2.07], p<0.05, very low quality), the probiotic group exhibited a notable impact on ameliorating symptoms associated with constipation (OR = 11.28, 95%CI [7.21, 17.64], p < 0.05, very low quality), no significant disparities were observed in terms of efforts to evacuate, manual maneuvers, and the incidence of adverse events (p>0.05). CONCLUSION The available evidence indicates a degree of uncertainty, ranging from low-to-very low, suggesting the efficacy of probiotics in augmenting bowel frequency and ameliorating constipation-related symptoms among elderly patients with constipation. Nevertheless, given the quality of the studies included, it is advisable to conduct further well-designed investigations with substantial sample sizes to substantiate the findings of this study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the influence of nutritional status on 90-day functional outcomes of stroke patients with acute large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation after endovascular treatment (EVT). METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the baseline, laboratory, surgical and 90-day follow-up data of patients with stroke resulting from acute large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation, who underwent emergency endovascular treatment in our hospital from July, 2015 to December, 2020. A favorable outcome was defined as a modified Rankin scale score ≤2 at 90 days. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed to explore the relationship between nutritional status and 90-day functional outcomes of the patients. RESULTS A total of 459 patients (mean age of 68.29±11.21 years, including 260 males) were enrolled in this study. According to their prognostic nutritional index (PNI), the patients were divided into normal nutrition group (392 cases, 85.4%), moderate malnutrition group (44 cases, 9.6%), and severe malnutrition group (23 cases, 5.0%). Univariate analysis showed that the patients with good clinical outcomes had a lower proportion of malnutrition with a younger age, a lower rate of diabetes, lower baseline blood pressure, lower baseline NIHSS score, higher baseline ASPECT score, and higher rates of good collateral circulation and complete vascular recanalization. Multivariate analysis showed that in addition to age, diabetes, baseline systolic blood pressure, successful recanalization, baseline ASPECT score, baseline NIHSS score and collateral circulation, a greater PNI was a protective factor for a good 90-day outcome of patients after EVT (moderate vs severe: OR=0.245, 95% CI: 0.066-0.908, P=0.035; normal vs severe: OR=0.185, 95% CI: 0.059-0.581, P=0.004). CONCLUSION Nutritional status an important factor affecting the 90-day outcomes after EVT of stroke patients with acute large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) is one of toxic metal in environment and is thought to affect nervous system. There were an increasing number of studies on selenium (Se)-enriched probiotics which were believed to produce bioactive nanoselenium. The antagonism of Se on heavy metals can significantly affect biological toxicity of heavy metals. This study aimed to elucidate possible mechanism of brain injury in Luciobarbus capito after Cd exposure and the mitigation of Se-enriched probiotics through transcriptome analysis. The results revealed 465 differentially expressed genes in the Cd and the control brains (Cd vs C), including 320 genes with upregulated expression and 145 genes with downregulated expression. In addition, we found that there were 4117 differentially expressed genes in the Se-enriched L. plantarum plus Cd and the control brains (S1L1-Cd vs C), including 2552 genes with upregulated expression and 1565 genes with downregulated expression. There were 147 differentially expressed genes in the Se-enriched L. plantarum plus Cd and the control brains (S1L1-Cd vs Cd), including 40 genes with upregulated expression and 107 genes with downregulated expression. Moreover, GO enrichment analysis indicated that the differentially expressed genes were involved in biological processes cellular component, and molecular function. KEGG enrichment analysis indicated that MAPK signaling pathway, calcium signaling pathway, and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway were significantly enriched. Subsequently, qRT-PCR was performed, and we selected 15 related differentially expressed genes for verification. The qRT-PCR results revealed the same trend as the RNA-Seq results. In conclusion, this study elucidated relieving effect of Se-enriched probiotics on Cd exposure-induced brain oxidative stress. This study provided a theoretical basis for further research on genes related to Cd poisoning and the amelioration of Se-enriched probiotics on Cd poisoning.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) is a dangerous pollutant with multiple toxic effects on aquatic animals, and it exists widely in the environment. Selenium (Se) is a biologically essential trace element. Interactions between heavy metals and selenium can significantly affect their biological toxicity, although little is known about the mechanism of this antagonism. Lactobacillus is one of the dominant probiotics, given that a certain dose promotes host health. In this study, we evaluated the protective effect of a dietary probiotic supplementation, Se-enriched Lactobacillus plantarum (L. plantarum), on the bioaccumulation, oxidative stress and gut microflora of Luciobarbus capito exposed to waterborne Cd. Fish were exposed for 28 days to waterborne Cd at 0.05 mg/L and/or dietary Se-enriched L. plantarum. Exposure to Cd in water leads to Cd accumulation in tissues, oxidative stress and significant changes in gut microflora composition. Adding Se-enriched L. plantarum to the diet can reduce the accumulation of Cd in tissues, enhance the activity of antioxidant enzymes, and reverse changes in intestinal microbial composition after Cd exposure. The results obtained indicate that Se-enriched L. plantarum provides significant protection against the toxicity of Cd by inhibiting bioaccumulation. Selenium reduced oxidative stress by increasing the activity of glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPX) and malondialdehyde (MDA). Se-enriched L. plantarum can reduce the increase in the number of pathogenic Aeromonas caviae bacteria in the intestine caused by Cd stress and increase the number of Gemmobacter to regulate the microbial population. The results of this study show that Se-enriched L. plantarum dietary supplements can effectively protect Luciobarbus capito against Cd toxicity at subchronic levels.

Abstract
Mercury (Hg) is a global pollutant that affects the health of humans and ecosystems. Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element for many organisms including humans. Bacillus subtilis is one of the main probiotics used in aquaculture, and has a certain adsorption effect on heavy metals. The interaction between Hg and Se was rigorously studied, especially due to the observation of the protective effect of Se on Hg toxicity. The objective of this study was to research the effects of Hg, Se, and B. subtilis on inflammation and intestinal microbes in common carp. The common carp was exposed to Hg (0.03 mg/L), and 105 cfu/g Se-rich B. subtilis was added to the feed. After 30 days of feeding, samples were taken to evaluate the growth performance, serological response, inflammatory response, and intestinal microbial changes. In this study, when fish were exposed to Hg, the growth performance of the Se-rich B. subtilis plus 0.03 mg/L Hg fish group was lower than that of the control group and higher than 0.03 mg/L Hg; The levels of serum immunoglobulin M (IgM) and lysozyme (LZM) decreased, but after supplementation with Se-rich B. subtilis, the levels of LZM and IgM increased; Hg treatment significantly upregulated the mRNA expression of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-8 (IL-8), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and nuclear factor-kB (NF-κB P65), but downregulated the mRNA expression of interleukin-10 (IL-10), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and NF-kappa-B inhibitor alpha (IkBα). However, compared with the Hg group, the Se-rich B. subtilis plus Hg group can significantly increase the mRNA expression levels of IL-1β, IL-8, TNF-α, and NF-κB P65, but reduce the regulation of IL-10, TGF-β, and IkBα expression. Through the analysis of the microbiological, we found that the Hg group was mainly composed of Aeromonas sobria and Aeromonas hydrophila. However, in the Se-rich B. subtilis treatment group, we found that Aeromonas sobria was significantly less than the Hg group. Se-rich B. subtilis improves Hg-induced intestinal microbial changes, alleviates the abundance of Aeromonas, and alleviates the inflammation of the fish. The results of this study show that Se-rich B. subtilis dietary supplements can effectively protect common carp against Hg toxicity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fish is favored by consumers, while amino acids and fatty acids are the main nutrients of muscle. At present, it has been found that the gut microbial community may be involved in the regulation of host material anabolism. Juvenile and adult bighead carp (A. nobilis) from Chagan lake and Xinlicheng reservoir were selected, and divided into four groups to compare the differences of gut microbial communities, free amino acid and fatty acids in muscle. RESULTS The results showed that fish in different lakes or ages contained specific microbiota, the gut microbial structure was similar, but the microbial content was significantly different. Gut microbial abundance of juvenile fish in Chagan lake was significantly higher than that of other groups. Phylum level analysis Proteobacteria was the dominant gut bacteria of fish in both adult and juvenile fish from two separate lakes. Actinobacteria was another dominant bacterial phylum in juvenile fish in both lakes. Contents of free amino acids and fatty acids in muscle were detected, and the relationships between them and gut microbial communities were analyzed. Bighead carp grew from juvenile to adult, Actinobacteria abundance decreased (P < 0.05) and Proteobacteria increased (P < 0.05). Proteobacteria was positively correlated with the contents of Thr, Lys, Pro, Asp, Gly and Glu, Actinobacteria was negatively correlated with Met and His. Meanwhile, EPA and DHA were positively correlated with Proteobacteria, EPA and DHA were not significantly associated with Actinobacteria. CONCLUSION It was speculated that the contents of free amino acids and fatty acids in muscle might be affected by the difference of gut microbiota, thus affecting the taste and nutritional quality.

Abstract
Saline-alkali land is distributed all over the world, and it affects the economic development of fisheries. The alkalinity in water is related to the accumulation of carbonate, so the is generally higher. To understand how alkalinity impacts the immune response in Luciobarbus capito, we performed transcriptomic profiles for spleen, the immune organ of Luciobarbus capito which were underwent alkalinity exposure. Totally there are 47,727,954, 53,987,820 and 51,398,546 high quality clean reads obtained from the control groups, and 46,996,982, 49,650,460 and 45,964,986 clean reads from the alkalinity exposure groups. Among them, 611 genes were differently expressed, including 534 upregulated and 77 down-regulated genes. The identified genes were enriched using databases of Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). It was found that differentially expressed genes in Luciobarbus capito spleen tissue were enriched into 14 GO pathways, and differentially expressed genes in Luciobarbus capito spleen were enriched into 25 corresponding KEGG pathways under alkalinity stress. Inflammation and immune function genes and pathways were identified and validated by quantitative real-time RT-PCR. Our results showed that alkalinity exposure leads to inflammation and immunoregulation in spleen of Luciobarbus capito. These results provide new insights for unveiling the biological effects of alkalinity in Luciobarbus capito.

Abstract
Fluorine is an environmental toxicant and exposure of fluorine could induce various health disorders. Gut microbiota has been known to be involved in maintaining animal or human health. Therefore, in the present study, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between fluorine exposure and gut microbiota in common carp. Gut microbiota composition was detected by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Intestinal structural integrity was assessed by hematoxylin-eosin staining and tight junction protection detection. The results showed that exposure of carp to fluorine led to the injury of intestinal tissues. And compared to the control group, the expression of tight junction protein ZO-1 and occludin was decreased. Meanwhile, the gut microbial diversity and composition were changed by fluorine exposure. At the phylum level, the abundance of Fusobacteria and Firmicutes increased significantly, and the abundance of Actinobacteria decreased markedly after treatment of fluorine. At the genus level, interestingly, we found the abundance of Plesiomonas, an important pathogenic bacteria, increased significantly by the treatment of fluorine. And the abundance of Akkermansia, a critical probiotics, was markedly inhibited by the treatment of fluorine. In conclusion, the results suggested fluorine exposure changed the gut microbiome composition and led to the damage of intestinal structural integrity.

Abstract
Lead is an environmental toxicant that has toxicity effect to the health of aquatic organisms. Gut microbiota has been reported to be closely related to human health. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of lead exposure on the composition of gut microbiota. The composition of gut microbiota alteration was detected by 16S rRNA gene sequencing, following a 42-day exposure of lead (1 mg/L). The results showed that compared with the normal control group, the carp of lead group showed severe intestinal tissues injury and decreased Zona Occludens 1 (ZO-1) and occludin expression. The production of LPS in serum was increased by the treatment of lead exposure. Our results showed gut bacterial diversity in lead-treated common carp was lower than the control group. At the phylum level, the abundance of Bacteroidetes (LPS producing bacteria) and Fusobacteria in lead-treated carp were much higher than the control carp. And the abundance of Actinobacteria decreased by lead exposure. At the genus level, we found the abundance of Bacteroides (LPS producing bacteria) and Plesiomonas (an important pathogenic bacteria), increased significantly by lead exposure. And the abundance of Akkermansia, a critical probiotics, was markedly inhibited by lead exposure. In conclusion, this study indicated exposure of carp to lead causes gut microbiota alterations and intestinal structural integrity destruction.

Abstract
Mercury (Hg) poisoning in humans and fish represents a significant global problem. Hg is one of the most dangerous threats to the aquatic ecosystem due to its high toxicity. Mercury has a high oxidative stress-inducing potential, and can compounds exert toxic effects by interacting with many important enzymes involved in the regulation of antioxidants. Selenium (Se) supplementation can reactivate the mercury-inhibited enzymes viability. The probiotic Bacillus subtilis is widely used in aquaculture, and it has a certain adsorption effect on heavy metals. The interactions between Hg and Se have been rigorously investigated, particularly due to the observed protective effects of Se against Hg toxicity. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether Se-rich B. subtilis ameliorated Hg-induced toxicity in C. carpio var. specularis. Fish were exposed to waterborne Hg (0.03 mg/L) and fed a diet supplemented with 105 cfu/g Se-rich B. subtilis for 30 days. Fish were sampled, antioxidant activity, and Intestinal damage repair were assessed. Our results indicated that Se-rich B. subtilis protected the Intestinal from Hg-induced morphological changes. Hg treatment significantly decreased the activity levels of SOD, CAT and GSH-PX while increasing the activity levels of MDA, GST, and GSH. Hg treatment also upregulated the mRNA expression of Nrf2, CAT, GSH-PX and HO-1, and reduced expression of keap1. Se-rich B. subtilis had a significant protective effect against Hg-induced oxidative stress.

Abstract
Lead, a widespread industrial pollutant, has been known as a powerful neurotoxin that could affect the central nervous system. Accumulating evidences demonstrated that lead exposure could result in the damage of brain tissues both in fish and human. However, the mechanism of lead induced brain injury has not been fully elucidated. The purpose of this study was to clarify the possible mechanism of common carp brain injury after exposure to lead through transcriptome analysis. Transcriptome analysis showed that 2141 differentially expressed genes were identified. Among these, 502 genes were up-regulated and 1639 genes were down-regulated. Meanwhile, GO enrichment analysis showed Transport, biological_process, DNA-templated (regulation of transcription) and signal transduction contained the most differential genes in the biological process. Furthermore, KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed Ion channels, GnRH signaling pathway, cell adhesion molecules, Wnt signaling pathway, and calcium signaling pathway were significantly enriched. In addition, 10 differentially expressed genes were selected for qRT-PCR detection, and the results demonstrated that the selected genes exhibited the same trends with the RNA-Seq results, which indicates the transcriptome sequencing data is reliable. In conclusion, the above results provide a theoretical basis for clarifying the relationship between lead exposure and brain injury in common carp and for further studying of the genes related to lead poisoning.

Abstract
Fluorine, an environmental toxicant in our daily life, has been reported to have adverse effects on nervous system. Previous studies demonstrated that fluorine exposure could induce brain injury in fish and human. However, the possible mechanism remains unclear. In the present study, we aimed to reveal the mechanism of fluorine exposure on brain injury of common carp through transcriptome analysis. In the fluorine-exposed carp, 444 brain genes were up-regulated, whereas 742 genes were down-regulated. DNA-templated (regulation of transcription) and multicellular organism development in the GO function annotation accounted for the most biological processes. Nucleus and membrane accounted for the most cellular components and DNA binding and metal ion binding accounted for the most molecular function. Meanwhile, 196 metabolic pathways were identified in Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) Pathway significant enrichment analysis, including long-term depression, Cushing syndrome, nuclear receptors, vascular smooth muscle contraction, Ion channels, and other pathways. Furthermore, we found that the up-regulated and down-regulated trends were similar between the quantitative real-time-PCR and RNA-Seq results, which indicate the transcriptome sequencing data is reliable. In conclusion, our data may provide insights into the mechanisms underlying brain injury induced by fluorine exposure.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) is the most common heavy metal and is easily detected in aquatic environments on a global scale. Vitamin C was a widely used vitamin in aquaculture. The aim of this study was to explore the potential of vitamin C in ameliorating Cd-induced toxicity in grass carp kidney (CIK) cells. Cell viability, oxidative response, metallothionein (MT), and immune-related gene expression was analyzed in the present study. The results show that cell viability was significantly reduced following Cd exposure, but the vitamin C supplementation attenuated the increased in cell viability. In addition, vitamin C supplementation can increase the antioxidation response and MT and immune-related gene expression. These results indicate that vitamin C has the potential to alleviate the effects of Cd toxicity in CIK cells.

Abstract
Pollen has various effects on human health and the environment. To understand phenomena behind atmospheric pollen transport and hence improve pollen forecasts, vertically resolved optical properties and geometrical characteristics of the pollen distribution need to be studied. Lidar measurements and especially the particle depolarization ratio have been found to be an excellent tool to track pollen grains. In this study we present first results of atmospheric pollen characterization based on a 11 days period of birch and spruce pollination events.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate risk factors for visual field (VF) loss progression in primary open-angle glaucoma patients. Methods: A prospective nested case-control study. Patients were collected from the Wenzhou glaucoma progression study in the Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University during March 2014 and April 2018. In this study, the eyes were divided into a progression group and a non-progression group using the glaucoma progression analysis methods to analyze the risk factors for glaucomatous VF loss progression. Axial length (AL) and central corneal thickness (CCT) were measured using the Lenstar LS900. The baseline, fluctuation (standard deviation), mean, maximum, minimum and range of intraocular pressure (IOP) during the follow-up period were determined based on IOP measured at each follow-up. The IOP measurements were included from the baseline to the last visit (for the non-progression group), or to the visit at which VF loss progression was determined (for the progression group). The independent sample t-test, Mann-Whitney U inspection and Cox proportional hazards models were used for statistical analysis. Results: A total of 140 patients (140 eyes) were enrolled, including 67 males and 73 females. There were 19.3% of the eyes (27 of 140 eyes) showing VF loss progression. The median time to the endpoint for progression was 24.0 (16.0, 40.0) months. The AL in the progression group and non-progression group were 23.58 (23.05, 24.24) mm and 23.91 (23.10, 24.91) mm (P=0.111). The CCT in the two groups were 531.0 (512.0, 565.0) μm and 535.0 (518.5, 552.0) μm, respectively (P=0.897). The baseline age in the progression group and non-progression group was 71.0 (68.0, 74.0) years and 68.0 (58.0, 72.0) years, respectively (Z=-2.872, P=0.004). The slope of visual field index in the two groups was -3.50 (-7.10, -1.80)%/year and 0.40 (-0.60, 1.40)%/year, respectively (Z=-6.823, P<0.01). The mean IOP during the follow-up was (16.2±2.7) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) in the progression group and (15.1±2.4) mmHg in the non-progression group (t=-2.215, P=0.028). The IOP fluctuation in the progression group and non-progression group was (2.6±1.3) mmHg and (2.0±0.7) mmHg, respectively (t=-2.175, P=0.038). In the multivariate model, older baseline age (HR=1.080; 95%CI:1.019-1.143), higher baseline IOP (HR=1.120; 95%CI:1.016-1.236), higher mean IOP (HR=1.145; 95%CI:1.001-1.309) and higher IOP fluctuation (HR=1.750; 95%CI:1.193-2.566) were all significantly predictive risk factors for glaucomatous VF loss progression. Longer AL (HR=0.725; 95%CI:0.532-0.988) was a protective factor against VF loss progression. However, CCT was found to be not associated with VF loss progression. Conclusion: Baseline age, baseline IOP, mean IOP, IOP fluctuation and shorter AL are found to be risk factors for glaucomatous VF loss progression among eyes with primary open-angle glaucoma in Wenzhou.

Abstract
Objective: To measure in vivo biomechanical properties of pelvic support structures associated with uterosacral ligament suspension (ULS) . Methods: Ten Chinese female cadavers (death within 48 hours) without embalming were carefully dissected to expose the ligament. After dissection, ligaments were sewn according to standard ULS surgical technique. They were stretched at a steady rate to breakage during constant electronic registration of load and displacement. In vivo biomechanical properties were evaluated by a load-displacement curve. Results: Ultimate load of uterosacral ligament, ring around cervix were (37.3±23.5) , (49.3±28.4) N, respectively. The differences between the two groups was not significant (P>0.05) . Ligament stiffness were (1.26±1.22) , (1.45±0.92) N/mm, respectively. There was no significant difference between groups (P>0.05) . Conclusions: The uterosacral ligament, ring around cervix with sufficient strength are not easy to deform. ULS is an effective procedure for treating middle pelvic defects from a biomechanics perspective.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Endovascular thrombectomy has been accepted as the standard of care for patients with acute ischemic stroke. Our aim was to investigate the clinical outcomes of patients with mild ischemic stroke with acute proximal large-vessel occlusion after endovascular treatment within 24 hours of symptom onset. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between January 2014 and August 2017, ninety-three Chinese patients with mild ischemic stroke (NIHSS scores, 0-8) and large-vessel occlusion with endovascular treatment were retrospectively enrolled from 7 comprehensive stroke centers. They were divided into 2 groups: ≤6 hours and 6-24 hours from symptom onset to groin puncture. We analyzed their modified Rankin Scale scores at 90 days, symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage at 48 hours, and mortality during 90 days. Multivariable linear regression analysis was used to identify predictors for NIHSS shift after discharge. RESULTS Twenty-nine patients received endovascular treatment within 6-24 hours after symptom onset and had an imaging mismatch based on perfusion CT or diffusion-weighted MR imaging. There were no substantial differences between the 2 groups in 90-day functional independence (P = .54) and the risks of the combination of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and death (P = .72). Two significant indicators of NIHSS shift were 48-hour symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (unstandardized β = 7.28; 95% CI, 3.48-11.1; P < .001) and baseline systolic blood pressure (unstandardized β = 0.08; 95% CI, 0.03-0.14; P = .005). CONCLUSIONS Patients with mild ischemic stroke and large-vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation, an imaging mismatch, and endovascular treatment within 6-24 hours of initial symptoms showed no heterogeneity in the efficacy and safety outcome compared with those treated ≤6 hours from symptom onset.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Griffiths Mental Development Scales (GMDS) are used in many countries to assess the development of children from birth to 8 years. There is a need for accurate and culturally appropriate developmental assessment tools for Chinese children. Here, we adapted the GMDS for use in Chinese children and compare the developmental trajectories between Chinese and British children. METHODS Children with typical development were recruited from 7 urban cities in China between 2009 and 2013. The Griffiths Mental Development Scales-Chinese (GDS-C) were adapted and used to assess the development of urban Chinese children. Developmental curves were computed for 6 subscales using learning management system methods and compare against the British curves from the Griffiths Mental Development Scales-Extended Revised (GMDS-ER). RESULTS The GDS-C were used to assess the developmental status of 815 Chinese children. Plots of the 1st, 5th, 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, 90th, 95th, and 99th percentiles, and full percentile tables were obtained, which showed similar trends to data from the British GMDS-ER. CONCLUSIONS The Chinese developmental curves obtained from the GDS-C showed similarities and differences to the developmental curves from the British GMDS-ER. The development of urban Chinese children should be assessed with the culturally appropriate GDS-C.

Abstract
We report a strategy to introduce a reactive electrophile into proteins through the conversion of a chemically inert group into a bioreactive group in response to an inducer molecule. This strategy was demonstrated by oxidation-induced and proximity-enhanced protein-protein crosslinking in the presence of a large excess of free nucleophile.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Prenatal growth, which is widely marked by birthweight, may have a pivotal role in affecting the lifelong risk of cardiometabolic disorders; however, comprehensive evaluation of its relations with childhood cardiometabolic risk patterns and the ethnic and gender disparities in national representative populations is still lacking. The aim of this study was to evaluate the associations between birthweight and comprehensive patterns of cardiometabolic risk in a nationally representative sample of children and adolescents. SUBJECTS/METHODS Prospective analyses were performed using data from 28 153 children 0 to 15 years in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 1999 through 2014. We defined childhood cardiometabolic disorders using standard definitions for obesity, high blood pressure, hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia. RESULTS Five birthweight categories <2.5, 2.5-3.0, 3.0-3.5, 3.5-4.2 and ⩾4.2 kg accounted for 8.2%, 17.9%, 35.7%, 27.9% and 10.4% of the population, respectively. In all children, with increasing birthweight, we observed significantly increasing trends of the risk of general and central obesity (P for trend <0.01) and significantly decreasing trends of the risk of high systolic blood pressure (SBP), high HbA1c and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (P for trend <0.05). The associations were independent of current body mass index (BMI). In addition, we found that the relations of birthweight with high waist circumference in Black children showed U-shape, as well as high SBP in Mexican and Hispanic children. Moreover, we found that the associations of low birthweight with high SBP and low HDL-C appeared to more prominent significant in boys, whereas the inverse association with high HbA1c was more evident in girls. CONCLUSIONS Our data indicate that birthweight is significantly related to childhood cardiometabolic risk, independent of current BMI, and the associations exhibit race and gender-specific patterns.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to examine the association between baseline and changes in dietary quality assessed by the Alternative Healthy Eating Index-2010 (AHEI-2010) and abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) among community-dwelling older adults. DESIGN Population-based longitudinal study. SETTING A subset of the Melbourne Collaborative Cohort Study (MCCS). PARTICIPANTS 262 community-dwelling adults (60% female) aged 53 ± 5 years at baseline. MEASUREMENTS Dietary intake was assessed using validated Food Frequency Questionnaires at baseline (1990-1994) and follow-up (2010-2011). AAC was evaluated by radiography and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at follow-up. RESULTS Higher baseline AHEI-2010 score was associated with lower AAC severity by radiography [OR (95% CI) for Tertile 3 VS Tertile 1: 0.53 (0.29-0.99)] after adjustment for gender, age, physical activity, smoking, BMI, systolic blood pressure, plasma total cholesterol, calcium and energy intake. The association between AHEI-2010 and AAC severity by DXA was also significant in the multivariate-adjusted model [OR (95% CI) for Tertile 3 VS Tertile 1: 0.38 (0.20-0.70)]. Changes in AHEI-2010 over 18 years were not associated with AAC severity. CONCLUSION Baseline but not the changes in AHEI-2010 was inversely associated with the risk of AAC severity suggesting that a high quality diet might help prevent or delay the progression of AAC in community-dwelling older adults and the benefits might be manifested over the long-term.

Abstract
A new fluorogenic bioorthogonal reaction between styrene (an unstrained alkene) and a tetrazine was developed.
We developed a new fluorogenic bioorthogonal reaction that is based on the inverse electron-demand Diels–Alder reaction between styrene (an unstrained alkene) and a simple tetrazine. The reaction forms a new fluorophore with no literature precedent. We have identified an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase/tRNA pair for the efficient and site-specific incorporation of a styrene-containing amino acid into proteins in response to amber nonsense codon. Fluorogenic labeling of purified proteins and intact proteins in live cells were demonstrated. The fluorogenicity of the styrene–tetrazine reaction can be potentially applied to the study of protein folding and function under physiological conditions with low background fluorescence interference.

Abstract
Obolodiplosis robiniae is native to North America and is an important introduced insect pest that forms leaf margin roll galls on species of genus Robinia (Fabaceae) in China. It was first detected in China in 2004, but subsequently spread and provoked local outbreaks. An analysis of a 676-bp sequence of the mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase subunit I was conducted in 560 individuals from 28 populations, in order to (1) assess population genetic structuring and (2) explore possible explanations for the rapid spread and invasion success of O. robiniae. Yet, only four haplotypes were identified and the nucleotide diversity was low (π = 0.00005) and among the 560 specimens studied, only ten showed haplotypic variation involving no more than three substitutions. The result showed a low degree of genetic diversity among populations of the successful invasive gall midge, which suggested that the pest experienced a severe genetic bottleneck and a loss of genetic diversity after its introduction. The successful establishment and spread of O. robiniae in China is attributed to the wide distribution of its host plant, thus allowing ample opportunities for gene flow in the pest species, and to the advantageous life history characteristics of O. robiniae.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Our aim was to clarify the correlation between fatigue during the acute stage of stroke with serum glucose and homocysteine (Hcy) levels and functional disability. MATERIALS AND METHODS A case group of 214 patients and a control group of 214 subjects were recruited during the same period. The serum glucose, Hcy, blood lipid and fibrinogen (FIB) levels of patients were determined. Fatigue was assessed using the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS). Patients with an FSS score ≥4 points were defined as having fatigue. Stroke severity and the level of functional disability were assessed with the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and the Barthel-20 Index (BI-20), respectively. RESULTS The incidence of fatigue in the case group was higher than that in the control group (P < 0.001). Within the case group, the fatigue group showed higher serum levels of glucose and Hcy, and a lower BI-20 score compared to the non-fatigue group (P < 0.001). Age, gender, chronic disease history, the NIHSS score and the serum blood lipid and FIB levels were not significantly different between the two groups. In the fatigue group, the serum glucose and Hcy levels showed a positive effect and the BI-20 score showed a negative effect on the FSS score (P < 0.01). Age, gender, chronic disease history, the NIHSS score and the serum blood lipid and FIB levels did not significantly affect the FSS score. CONCLUSIONS The serum glucose and Hcy levels and functional disability are closely related to fatigue during the acute stage of ischaemic stroke.

Abstract
Acute cholecystitis (AC) is one of the most common surgical diseases. Bacterial infection accounts for 50% to 85% of the disease's onset. Since there is a close relationship between the biliary system and the gut, the aims of this study were to characterize and determine the influence of gut microbiota on AC, to detect the pathogenic microorganism in the biliary system, and to explore the relationship between the gut and bile microbiota of patients with AC. A total of 185 713 high-quality sequence reads were generated from the faecal samples of 15 patients and 13 healthy controls by 16S rRNA gene pyrosequencing. Patients' samples were significantly enriched in Akkermansia, Enterobacter and Escherichia/Shigella group. The healthy controls, however, showed significant enrichment of Clostridiales, Coprococcus, Coprobacillaceae, Paraprevotella, Turicibacter and TM7-3 in their faecal samples. Escherichia coli was the main biliary pathogenic microorganism, among others such as Klebsiella spp., Clostridium perfringens, Citrobacter freundii and Enterobacter cloacae in the bile of the patients. Additionally, the amount of bile endotoxin significantly correlated with the number of Enterobacteriaceae, especially E. coli. Our data indicate that Enterobacteriaceae might play essential role in the pathogenesis and/or progress of AC. This was verified in an in vivo model using a pathogenic E. coli isolated from one of the patients in guinea pigs and observed marked gallbladder inflammation and morphologic changes. This study thus provides insight which could be useful for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of AC and related diseases by controlling the growth of Enterobacteriaceae to alleviate the infection.
