Abstract
BACKGROUND During the ongoing global pandemic of COVID-19, the association between hyperglycemia and COVID-19 infection has emerged as a notable concern. Therefore, finding effective methods to manage hyperglycemia in patients with COVID-19 is crucial. OBJECTIVE To introduce the clinical pharmacists participating in multidisciplinary collaborative whole hospital blood glucose management mode, and to explore its effect on blood glucose control in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 infection and complicated with hyperglycemia. METHODS Patients with COVID-19 treated at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from December 2022 to January 2023 were assigned to routine diagnosis and treatment group and whole hospital blood glucose management group according to the blood glucose management plan received by patients. The groups were compared in regards to their adherence to management advice, blood glucose levels, fluctuation, inflammation-related indicators, medical service-related indicators, and incidence of hypoglycemia and adverse events. RESULTS After 5 days of glucose management, both groups showed a decrease in fasting and postprandial blood glucose. Postprandial blood glucose in the whole hospital glucose management group was significantly lower than the routine group (P < 0.05). The whole hospital glucose management group showed a significant increase in compliance rate, improved inflammation-related indicators, and higher detection rates for hemoglobin and islet function (P < 0.05). Implementation rates for medical orders and treatment plans were also higher in the whole hospital group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in incidence of adverse events. CONCLUSIONS Multidisciplinary blood glucose management is highly recommended for patients with COVID-19 who have hyperglycemia due to its effectiveness, standardization, safety, and improvement of inflammation indicators.

Abstract
Adipose tissue group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) help maintain metabolic homeostasis by sustaining type 2 immunity and promoting adipose beiging. Although impairment of the ILC2 compartment contributes to obesity-associated insulin resistance, the underlying mechanisms have not been elucidated. Here, we found that ILC2s in obese mice and humans exhibited impaired liver kinase B1 (LKB1) activation. Genetic ablation of LKB1 disrupted ILC2 mitochondrial metabolism and suppressed ILC2 responses, resulting in exacerbated insulin resistance. Mechanistically, LKB1 deficiency induced aberrant PD-1 expression through activation of NFAT, which in turn enhanced mitophagy by suppressing Bcl-xL expression. Blockade of PD-1 restored the normal functions of ILC2s and reversed obesity-induced insulin resistance in mice. Collectively, these data present the LKB1-PD-1 axis as a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of metabolic disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Changes in body composition and metabolic factors may serve as biomarkers for the early detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The aim of this study was to capture the longitudinal changes in body composition and metabolic factors prior to diagnosis of PDAC. METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study in which all patients (≥18 years) diagnosed with PDAC from 2002 to 2021 were identified. We collected all abdominal CT scans and 10 different blood-based biomarkers up to 36 months prior to diagnosis. We applied a fully automated abdominal segmentation algorithm previously developed by our group for three-dimensional quantification of body composition on CT scans. Longitudinal trends of body composition and blood-based biomarkers prior to PDAC diagnosis were estimated using linear mixed models, compared across different time windows, and visualized using spline regression. RESULTS We included 1,690 patients in body composition analysis, of whom 516 (30.5%) had ≥ 2 prediagnostic CT scans. For analysis of longitudinal trends of blood-based biomarkers, 3,332 individuals were included. As an early manifestation of PDAC, we observed a significant decrease in visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue (β =-1.94 (95% CI, -2.39, -1.48) and β = -2.59 (95% CI, -3.17, -2.02 in area (cm2)/height (m2) per 6 months closer to diagnosis, accompanied by a decrease in serum lipids (e.g., LDL; β = -2.83; 95% CI, -3.31, -2.34, total cholesterol; β = -2.69; 95% CI, -3.18, -2.20, and triglycerides; β = -1.86; 95% CI, -2.61, -1.11), and an increase in blood glucose levels. Loss of muscle tissue and bone volume was predominantly observed in the last 6 months prior to diagnosis. CONCLUSION This study identified significant alterations in a variety of soft tissue and metabolic markers that occur in the development of PDAC. Early recognition of these metabolic changes may provide an opportunity for early detection.

Abstract
Tissue-specific gene manipulations are widely used in genetically engineered mouse models. A single recombinase system, such as the one using Alb-Cre, has been commonly used for liver-specific genetic manipulations. However, most diseases are complex, involving multiple genetic changes and various cell types. A dual recombinase system is required for conditionally modifying different genes sequentially in the same cell or inducing genetic changes in different cell types within the same organism. A FlpO cDNA was inserted between the last exon and 3'-UTR of the mouse albumin gene in a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC-Alb-FlpO). The founders were crossed with various reporter mice to examine the efficiency of recombination. Liver cancer tumorigenesis was investigated by crossing the FlpO mice with FSF-KrasG12D mice and p53frt mice (KPF mice). BAC-Alb-FlpO mice exhibited highly efficient recombination capability in both hepatocytes and intrahepatic cholangiocytes. No recombination was observed in the duodenum and pancreatic cells. BAC-Alb-FlpO-mediated liver-specific expression of mutant KrasG12D and conditional deletion of p53 gene caused the development of liver cancer. Remarkably, liver cancer in these KPF mice manifested a distinctive mixed hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma phenotype. A highly efficient and liver-specific BAC-Alb-FlpO mouse model was developed. In combination with other Cre lines, different genes can be manipulated sequentially in the same cell, or distinct genetic changes can be induced in different cell types of the same organism.NEW & NOTEWORTHY A liver-specific Alb-FlpO mouse line was generated. By coupling it with other existing CreERT or Cre lines, the dual recombinase approach can enable sequential gene modifications within the same cell or across various cell types in an organism for liver research through temporal and spatial gene manipulations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Tirzepatide is a novel glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist. In the SURPASS-AP-Combo trial, once-weekly tirzepatide was associated with improved glycemic control and weight loss versus insulin glargine and was generally well tolerated in an Asia-Pacific, predominately Chinese, population with type 2 diabetes (T2D). This post hoc subgroup analysis of SURPASS-AP-Combo assessed the potential influence of patient baseline characteristics on the efficacy and safety of tirzepatide. METHODS Changes from baseline to week 40 in HbA1c, body weight, fasting serum glucose (FSG), and daily glucose average from self-measured blood glucose profiles were analyzed by potential influential factors including age (< 65, ≥ 65 years), sex, baseline HbA1c (≤ 8.5, > 8.5%), body mass index (BMI) (< 25, ≥ 25 kg/m2), body weight (< 75, ≥ 75 kg), duration of diabetes (< 10, ≥ 10 years), and concomitant oral antihyperglycemic medications (metformin, metformin plus sulphonylurea). Gastrointestinal adverse events and hypoglycemia were also evaluated. RESULTS At week 40, all tirzepatide doses were associated with reduced HbA1c, body weight, FSG, and daily glucose average from baseline in all subgroups. Greater HbA1c reductions were achieved in patients with higher baseline HbA1c across all tirzepatide doses, higher body weight with 10 mg and younger age with 15 mg tirzepatide. Greater reductions in body weight were observed in patients with higher body weight across all tirzepatide doses, lower baseline HbA1c with 5 mg and higher BMI with 5 mg tirzepatide. CONCLUSIONS In this post hoc analysis, tirzepatide was associated with reduced blood glucose and body weight in a predominantly Chinese population with T2D across different subgroups, consistent with previous reports for tirzepatide.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The pathogenic mechanisms of Thromboangiitis Obliterans (TAO) are not entirely known and autoimmune inflammation plays a vital role in the initiation and continuance of TAO activity. The authors investigated in this study the role of the TLR signaling pathway in the pathogenesis of TAO. METHODS First, the authors detected the expressions of MyD88, TRIF and NF-κB in vascular walls of 46 patients with TAO and 32 patients with trauma and osteosarcoma by western blot assay. Second, the authors detected the cellular localization of MyD88, TRIF and NF-κB in vascular walls of patients with TAO by immunofluorescent assay. RESULTS The protein expressions of MyD88, TRIF and NF-κB were much higher in vascular walls of TAO patients (p < 0.05). Higher expressions of MyD88 and NF-κB were detected both on vascular endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells of TAO patients. However, higher expression of TRIF was just detected on vascular smooth muscle cells of TAO patients. CONCLUSIONS These dates suggest that the TLR signaling pathway might play an important role in the pathogenesis of TAO, it might induce vasospasm, vasculitis and thrombogenesis to lead to the pathogenesis and progression of TAO.

Abstract
Glucose is required for generating heat during cold-induced nonshivering thermogenesis in adipose tissue, but the regulatory mechanism is largely unknown. CREBZF has emerged as a critical mechanism for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), formerly known as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). We investigated the roles of CREBZF in the control of thermogenesis and energy metabolism. Glucose induces CREBZF in human white adipose tissue (WAT) and inguinal WAT (iWAT) in mice. Lys208 acetylation modulated by transacetylase CREB-binding protein/p300 and deacetylase HDAC3 is required for glucose-induced reduction of proteasomal degradation and augmentation of protein stability of CREBZF. Glucose induces rectal temperature and thermogenesis in white adipose of control mice, which is further potentiated in adipose-specific CREBZF knockout (CREBZF FKO) mice. During cold exposure, CREBZF FKO mice display enhanced thermogenic gene expression, browning of iWAT, and adaptive thermogenesis. CREBZF associates with PGC-1α to repress thermogenic gene expression. Expression levels of CREBZF are negatively correlated with UCP1 in human adipose tissues and increased in WAT of obese ob/ob mice, which may underscore the potential role of CREBZF in the development of compromised thermogenic capability under hyperglycemic conditions. Our results reveal an important mechanism of glucose sensing and thermogenic inactivation through reversible acetylation.

Abstract
AIM This study assessed the efficacy and safety of co-administering retagliptin and henagliflozin versus individual agents at corresponding doses in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who were inadequately controlled with metformin. METHODS This multicentre, phase 3 trial consisted of a 24-week, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled period. Patients with glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels between 7.5% and 10.5% were randomized to receive once-daily retagliptin 100 mg (R100; n = 155), henagliflozin 5 mg (H5; n = 156), henagliflozin 10 mg (H10; n = 156), co-administered R100/H5 (n = 155), or R100/H10 (n = 156). The primary endpoint was the change in HbA1c from baseline to week 24. RESULTS Based on the primary estimand, the least squares mean reductions in HbA1c at week 24 were significantly greater in the R100/H5 (-1.51%) and R100/H10 (-1.54%) groups compared with those receiving the corresponding doses of individual agents (-0.98% for R100, -0.86% for H5 and -0.95% for H10, respectively; p < .0001 for all pairwise comparisons). Achievement of HbA1c <7.0% at week 24 was observed in 27.1% of patients in the R100 group, 21.2% in the H5 group, 24.4% in the H10 group, 57.4% in the R100/H5 group and 56.4% in the R100/H10 group. Reductions in fasting plasma glucose and 2-h postprandial glucose were also more pronounced in the co-administration groups compared with the individual agents at corresponding doses. Decreases in body weight and systolic blood pressure were greater in the groups containing henagliflozin than in the R100 group. The incidence rates of adverse events were similar across all treatment groups, with no reported episodes of severe hypoglycaemia. CONCLUSIONS For patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus inadequately controlled by metformin monotherapy, the co-administration of retagliptin and henagliflozin yielded more effective glycaemic control through 24 weeks compared with the individual agents at their corresponding doses.

Abstract
PURPOSE Guidelines recommend germline genetic testing (GT) for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). This study aims to evaluate the utilization and outcomes of multigene panel GT in patients with PDAC. METHODS This retrospective, multisite study included patients with PDAC diagnosed between May 2018 and August 2020 at Mayo Clinic Arizona, Florida, and Minnesota. Discussion, uptake, and outcomes of GT were compared before (May 1, 2018-May 1, 2019) and after (August 1, 2019-August 1, 2020) the guideline update, accounting for a transition period. RESULTS The study identified 533 patients with PDAC, with 321 (60.2%) preguideline and 212 (39.8%) postguideline. Patient characteristics did not differ between the preguideline and postguideline periods. GT was discussed in 34.3% (110 of 321) of preguideline and 39.6% (84 of 212) of postguideline patients (odds ratio [OR], 1.26 [95% CI, 0.88 to 1.80]) and subsequently performed in 80.9% (89 of 110) of preguideline and 75.0% (63 of 84) of postguideline patients (OR, 1.10 [95% CI, 0.75 to 1.61]). Of 152 tested patients, 26 (17.1%) had a pathogenic variant (PV), of whom 17 (11.2%; 17 of 152) were PDAC-associated. Over the entire study period, GT was more likely in younger patients (65 v 70 years; P < .001), those seen by a medical oncologist (82.9% v 69.0%; P < .001), and those surviving more than 12 months from diagnosis (70.4% v 43.4%; P < .001). Demographics and personal/family cancer history were comparable between patients with and without a PDAC PV. CONCLUSION GT remains underutilized despite National Comprehensive Cancer Network guideline recommendations. Given the poor prognosis of PDAC and potential implications of GT, efforts to increase utilization are needed to provide surveillance and support to both patients with PDAC and at-risk family members.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PC) is a highly lethal malignancy with a survival rate of only 12%. Surveillance is recommended for high-risk individuals (HRIs), but it is not widely adopted. To address this unmet clinical need and drive early diagnosis research, we established the Pancreatic Cancer Early Detection (PRECEDE) Consortium. METHODS PRECEDE is a multi-institutional international collaboration that has undertaken an observational prospective cohort study. Individuals (aged 18-90 years) are enrolled into 1 of 7 cohorts based on family history and pathogenic germline variant (PGV) status. From April 1, 2020, to November 21, 2022, a total of 3,402 participants were enrolled in 1 of 7 study cohorts, with 1,759 (51.7%) meeting criteria for the highest-risk cohort (Cohort 1). Cohort 1 HRIs underwent germline testing and pancreas imaging by MRI/MR-cholangiopancreatography or endoscopic ultrasound. RESULTS A total of 1,400 participants in Cohort 1 (79.6%) had completed baseline imaging and were subclassified into 3 groups based on familial PC (FPC; n=670), a PGV and FPC (PGV+/FPC+; n=115), and a PGV with a pedigree that does not meet FPC criteria (PGV+/FPC-; n=615). One HRI was diagnosed with stage IIB PC on study entry, and 35.1% of HRIs harbored pancreatic cysts. Increasing age (odds ratio, 1.05; P<.001) and FPC group assignment (odds ratio, 1.57; P<.001; relative to PGV+/FPC-) were independent predictors of harboring a pancreatic cyst. CONCLUSIONS PRECEDE provides infrastructure support to increase access to clinical surveillance for HRIs worldwide, while aiming to drive early PC detection advancements through longitudinal standardized clinical data, imaging, and biospecimen captures. Increased cyst prevalence in HRIs with FPC suggests that FPC may infer distinct biological processes. To enable the development of PC surveillance approaches better tailored to risk category, we recommend adoption of subclassification of HRIs into FPC, PGV+/FPC+, and PGV+/FPC- risk groups by surveillance protocols.

Abstract
Chronic adipose tissue inflammation accompanied by macrophage accumulation and activation is implicated in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes in humans. The transcriptional coregulator CREBZF is a key factor in hepatic metabolism, yet its role in modulating adipose tissue inflammation and type 2 diabetes remains elusive. The present study demonstrates that overnutrition-induced CREBZF links adipose tissue macrophage (ATM) proinflammatory activation to insulin resistance. CREBZF deficiency in macrophages, not in neutrophils, attenuates macrophage infiltration in adipose, proinflammatory activation, and hyperglycemia in diet-induced insulin-resistant mice. The coculture assays show that macrophage CREBZF deficiency improves insulin sensitivity in primary adipocytes and adipose tissue. Mechanistically, CREBZF competitively inhibits the binding of IκBα to p65, resulting in enhanced NF-κB activity. In addition, bromocriptine is identified as a small molecule inhibitor of CREBZF in macrophages, which suppresses the proinflammatory phenotype and improves metabolic dysfunction. Furthermore, CREBZF is highly expressed in ATM of obese humans and mice, which is positively correlated with proinflammatory genes and insulin resistance in humans. This study identifies a previously unknown role of CREBZF coupling ATM activation to systemic insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Genetically engineered mouse models play a pivotal role in the modeling of diseases, exploration of gene functions, and the development of novel therapies. In recent years, clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9)-mediated genome editing technology has revolutionized the process of developing such models by enabling precise genome modifications of the multiple interested genes simultaneously. Following genome editing, an efficient genotyping methodology is crucial for subsequent characterization. However, current genotyping methods are laborious, time-consuming, and costly. Here, using targeting the mouse trypsinogen genes as an example, we introduced common applications of CRISPR-Cas9 editing and a streamlined cost-effective genotyping workflow for CRISPR-edited mouse models, in which Sanger sequencing is required only at the initial steps. In the F0 mice, we focused on identifying the presence of positive editing by PCR followed by Sanger sequencing without the need to know the exact sequences, simplifying the initial screening. In the F1 mice, Sanger sequencing and algorithms decoding were used to identify the precise editing. Once the edited sequence was established, a simple and effective genotyping strategy was established to distinguish homozygous and heterozygous status by PCR from tail DNA. The genotyping workflow applies to deletions as small as one nucleotide, multiple-gene knockout, and knockin studies. This simplified, efficient, and cost-effective genotyping shall be instructive to new investigators who are unfamiliar with characterizing CRISPR-Cas9-edited mouse strains.NEW & NOTEWORTHY This study presents a streamlined, cost-effective genotyping workflow for clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) edited mouse models, focusing on trypsinogen genes. It simplifies initial F0 mouse screening using PCR and Sanger sequencing without needing exact sequences. For F1 mice, precise editing is identified through Sanger sequencing and algorithm decoding. The workflow includes a novel PCR strategy for distinguishing homozygous and heterozygous statuses in subsequent generations, effective for small deletions, multiple-gene knockouts, and knockins.

Abstract
Aim Numerous evidence suggests that diabetes increases the risk of cognitive impairment. This study aimed to develop and validate a multivariable risk score model to identify mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods This cross-sectional study included 1256 inpatients (age: 57.5 ± 11.2 years) with T2DM in a tertiary care hospital in China. MCI was diagnosed according to the criteria recommended by the National Institute on Aging-Alzheimer's Association Workgroup, and a MoCA score of 19-25 indicated MCI. Participants were randomly allocated into the derivation and validation sets at 7:3 ratio. Logistic regression models were used to identify predictors for MCI in the derivation set. A scoring system based on the predictors' beta coefficient was developed. Predictive ability of the risk score was tested by discrimination and calibration methods. Results Totally 880 (285 with MCI, 32.4%) and 376 (167 with MCI, 33.8%) patients were allocated in the derivation and validation set, respectively. Age, education, HbA1c, self-reported history of severe hypoglycemia, and microvascular disease were identified as predictors for MCI and constituted the risk score. The AUCs (95% CI) of the risk score were 0.751 (0.717, 0.784) in derivation set and 0.776 (0.727, 0.824) in validation set. The risk score showed good apparent calibration of observed and predicted MCI probabilities and was capable of stratifying individuals into 3 risk categories by two cut-off points (low risk: ≤ 3, medium risk: 4-13, and high risk ≥ 14). Conclusion The risk score based on age, education, HbA1c, self-reported history of severe hypoglycemia, and microvascular disease can effectively assess MCI risk in adults with T2DM at different age. It can serve as a practical prescreening tool for early detection of MCI in daily diabetes care.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with dyslipidemia and mild cognitive impairment. This study investigated the relationships between serum lipids metabolism, cognition, and functional connectivity (FC) within and between brain networks in T2D patients. The study included 102 T2D patients and 45 healthy controls who underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging, lipid profile tests, and cognitive assessments. Thirteen functional networks were identified using independent component analysis. The statistical analyses included multivariate analysis of covariance, partial correlation, canonical correlation, and mediation analyses. We found widely reduced between-network FCs in T2D, especially between the ventral sensorimotor network (SMN) and dorsal attention network (DAN) (p = 0.001) and between the ventral SMN and lateral visual network (VN) (p < 0.001). Moreover, lower between-network FCs were correlated with worse serum lipids metabolism and poorer cognitive performance (all p < 0.05). Importantly, between-network FCs mediated the relationship between lipid metabolism and cognition (β = -0.3136, 95% CI: -0.7660, -0.0186). Within-network analyses revealed altered FCs within the anterior default mode network, DAN, and lateral VN, each positively correlated with global cognition (all p < 0.01). Our results suggest the potential of improving cognitive function by regulating serum lipids in individuals with T2D.

Abstract
AIMS To characterize the comparative contributions of different glycaemic indicators to cognitive dysfunction, and further investigate the associations between the most significant indicator and cognitive function, along with related cerebral alterations. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a cross-sectional study in 449 subjects with type 2 diabetes who completed continuous glucose monitoring and cognitive assessments. Of these, 139 underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging to evaluate cerebral structure and olfactory neural circuit alterations. Relative weight and Sobol's sensitivity analyses were employed to characterize the comparative contributions of different glycaemic indicators to cognitive dysfunction. RESULTS Complexity of glucose time series index (CGI) was found to have a more pronounced association with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) compared to glycated haemoglobin, time in range, and standard deviation. The proportion and multivariable-adjusted odds ratios (ORs) for MCI increased with descending CGI tertile (Tertile 1: reference group [≥4.0]; Tertile 2 [3.6-4.0] OR 1.23, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.68-2.24; Tertile 3 [<3.6] OR 2.27, 95% CI 1.29-4.00). Decreased CGI was associated with cognitive decline in executive function and attention. Furthermore, individuals with decreased CGI displayed reduced olfactory activation in the left orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) and disrupted functional connectivity between the left OFC and right posterior cingulate gyrus. Mediation analysis demonstrated that the left OFC activation partially mediated the associations between CGI and executive function. CONCLUSION Decreased glucose complexity closely relates to cognitive dysfunction and olfactory brain activation abnormalities in diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The PTEN-AKT pathway is frequently altered in extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (eCCA). We aim to evaluate the role of PTEN in the pathogenesis of eCCA and find novel therapies for this disease. METHODS The Pten gene in the biliary epithelial cells were genetically deleted using the Cre-loxp system. The pathologies were evaluated both macroscopically and histologically. The characteristics were further analyzed by immunohistochemistry (IHC), RT-PCR, cell culture, and RNAseq. Some features were compared to those in human eCCA samples. Further mechanistic studies utilized the conditional knockout of Trp53 and Aurora kinase A (Aurka) genes. Experimental therapy was tested using an Aurka inhibitor. RESULTS We observed that genetic deletion of the Pten gene in the extrahepatic biliary epithelium and peri-ductal glands initiated sclerosing cholangitis-like lesions in mice, resulting in enlarged and distorted extrahepatic bile ducts in mice as early as one month old. Histologically, these lesions exhibited increased epithelial proliferation, inflammatory cell infiltration, and fibrosis. With aging, the lesions progressed from low-grade dysplasia to invasive carcinoma. Trp53 inactivation further accelerated the disease progression, potentially through downregulating senescence. Further mechanistic studies showed that both human and mouse eCCA showed high expressions of AURKA. Notably, the genetic deletion of Aurka completely eliminated Pten deficiency-induced extrahepatic bile duct lesions. Furthermore, pharmacological inhibition of Aurka alleviated disease progression. CONCLUSIONS Pten deficiency in extrahepatic cholangiocytes and peribiliary glands led to a cholangitis-to-cholangiocarcinoma continuum through an Aurka-dependent manner. These findings offer new insights into preventive and therapeutic interventions for extrahepatic CCA. IMPACT AND IMPLICATIONS The aberrant PTEN-PI3K-AKT signaling pathway is commonly observed in human extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (eCCA), a disease with a poor prognosis. In our study, we developed a mouse model mimicking cholangitis to eCCA progression by conditionally deleting the Pten gene via Pdx1-Cre in epithelial cells and peribiliary glands of the extrahepatic biliary duct. The conditional Pten deletion in these cells led to cholangitis, which gradually advanced to dysplasia, ultimately resulting in eCCA. The loss of Pten heightened Akt signaling, cell proliferation, inflammation, fibrosis, DNA damage, epigenetic signaling, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), cell dysplasia, and cellular senescence. Genetic deletion or pharmacological inhibition of Aurka successfully halted the disease progression. This model shall be valuable for testing novel therapies and unraveling the mechanisms of eCCA tumorigenesis.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the neural static and dynamic intrinsic activity of intra-/inter-network topology among patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and those without NAFLD (T2NAFLD group and T2noNAFLD group, respectively) and to assess the relationship with metabolism. METHODS Fifty-six patients with T2NAFLD, 78 with T2noNAFLD, and 55 healthy controls (HCs) were recruited to the study. Participants had normal cognition and underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging scans, clinical measurements, and global cognition evaluation. Independent component analysis was used to identify frequency spectrum parameters, static functional network connectivity, and temporal properties of dynamic functional network connectivity (P < 0.05, false discovery rate-corrected). Statistical analysis involved one-way analysis of covariance with post hoc, partial correlation and canonical correlation analyses. RESULTS Our findings showed that: (i) T2NAFLD patients had more disordered glucose and lipid metabolism, had more severe insulin resistance, and were more obese than T2noNAFLD patients; (ii) T2D patients exhibited disrupted brain function, as evidenced by alterations in intra-/inter-network topology, even without clinically measurable cognitive impairment; (iii) T2NAFLD patients had more significant reductions in the frequency spectrum parameters of cognitive executive and visual networks than those with T2noNAFLD; and (iv) altered brain function in T2D patients was correlated with postprandial glucose, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and waist-hip ratio. CONCLUSION This study may provide novel insights into neuroimaging correlates for underlying pathophysiological processes inducing brain damage in T2NAFLD. Thus, controlling blood glucose levels, lipid levels and abdominal obesity may reduce brain damage risk in such patients.

Abstract
Recent studies have shown placenta-derived exosome (pdE) acts as an important mediator of organ-to-organ interplay regulating maternal metabolic alterations, however, the function and mechanisms of placental exosomes on pancreatic β-cell maladaptation in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) remain unclear. The purpose of this investigation was to ascertain how placental exosomes affected the β-cell dysfunction associated with the onset of GDM. Exosomes were isolated from chorionic villi explants of pregnant mice and humans with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and GDM. The effects of pdE from GDM on glucose tolerance in vivo and islets function in vitro were determined. Isolated islets from mice fed on the chow diet displayed an increase in apoptosis and observed their glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) greatly diminished by PdE from GDM mice. Mice that accepted PdE from mice with GDM possessed glucose intolerance.Based on miRNA microarray assay and bioinformatics analysis from human placental exosomes, we identified miR-320b selectively enriched in PdE secreted in GDM compared with NGT. Importantly, the level of placental miR-320b was positively correlated with the 1h-glucose and 2-h glucose of a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) during human pregnancies. Furthermore, miR-320 overexpression attributed to impaired insulin secretion and increased apoptosis in MIN6 cells and islets obtained from mice with normal insulin sensitivity. This study firstly proposed that altered miRNAs in pdE contribute to defective adaptation of β cells during pregnancy, which expands the knowledge of GDM pathogenesis. Exosomes from the placenta may be an emerging therapeutic target for GDM.

Abstract
Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is one of the most common and severe nosocomial infections worldwide. It can also affect healthy individuals in the community. The incidence of CDI has been on the rise globally for the past decade, necessitating a proactive approach to combat its spread; new strategies are being developed to enhance diagnostic accuracy and optimize treatment outcomes. Implementing the 2-step testing has increased diagnostic specificity, reducing the usage of CD-specific antibiotics with no concomitant increase in surgical complication rates. In 2021, the Infectious Diseases Society of America/Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America (IDSA/SHEA) shifted its preference for initial treatment to fidaxomicin over vancomycin and metronidazole due to its lower recurrence rate. It also prioritized fidaxomicin for the treatment of recurrent CDI. There are new developments on the frontiers of fecal microbiota therapies, with RBX2660 and SER-109 approved recently by the FDA for prevention, with other microbiome-based therapies in various development and clinical trials. This review offers providers an updated and practical guide for CDI management.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) may cause iron deposition in cardiac tissue. We aimed to describe the echocardiographic findings in patients with HH and identify risk factors for cardiac dysfunction. METHODS In this retrospective study, we included patients with HH who underwent transthoracic echocardiography at our tertiary care center between August 2000 and July 2022. We defined three primary outcomes for cardiac dysfunction: 1) left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 55%, 2) ratio between early mitral inflow velocity and mitral annular early diastolic velocity (E/e') > 15, and 3) global longitudinal strain (GLS) < 18. Multivariable logistic regression was utilized to identify predictors of cardiac dysfunction. RESULTS 582 patients (median age 57 years, 61.2% male) were included. The frequency of LVEF < 55%, E/e' > 15 and GLS < 18 was 9.0% (52/580), 9.6% (51/534) and 20.2% (25/124), respectively. In multivariable analysis, non-White race, age, and hypertension were associated with E/e' > 15. No specific HFE genetic mutation was associated with LVEF < 55%. A history of myocardial infarction was strongly associated with both LVEF < 55% and E/e' > 15. In patients with LVEF ≥ 55%, the C282Y/H63D genetic mutation was associated with reduced likelihood of E/e' > 15, p = 0.024. Patients with C282Y/H63D had a higher frequency of myocardial infarction. Smoking and alcohol use were significantly associated with GLS < 18 in unadjusted analysis. CONCLUSION We found the traditional risk factors of male sex, and history of myocardial infarction or heart failure, were associated with a reduced LVEF, irrespective of the underlying HFE genetic mutation. Patients with a C282Y/H63D genetic mutation had a higher frequency of myocardial infarction, yet this mutation was associated with reduced odds of diastolic dysfunction compared to other genetic mutations in patients with a normal LVEF.

Abstract
The importance of physical activity (PA) to people's health has become a consensus around the world, and regular long-term PA has been accepted as an alternative preventive measure for many chronic medical conditions. Although the daily PA have several benefits for the public, the systematic research on its effect in human physiology, cognition and cerebral nerve level is not fully studied. Hence, in this study, we aim to investigate this question in several specific aspects: basal heart rate, executive function, and neural oscillatory activity in the brain. A total of 146 subjects participated in this study and they were divided into two groups. One group (SG) is the long-term training (more than 8 years) subjects in soccer (n = 31), and the other group (CG) is a normal control group (n = 115). The heart rate was monitored with a portable equipment. Besides, 24 subjects (14 in SG and 10 in CG) participated the Go/No-Go task and EEG recording before and after exercise fatigue task. In the physiology level, we found that in the non-training time, the heart rate in CG group is significantly higher than that of the SG group (P < 0.001). In the cognition level, we found that the SG group has a faster reaction time that that of CG group (P < 0.01), while for the accuracy, two groups did show significant difference. In the neural level in the brain, we found a significant abnormal increased beta-band (around 25 Hz) activity in CG group after the exercise fatigue task immediately. Long-term high-intensity physical activity reduces basal heart rate, improves executive function, and improve the central tolerance of the body under the stimulation of fatigue and stress. These benefits of long-term activity could be used as a manual to guide people's healthy life.

Abstract
CONTEXT Although cognitive impairment in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has received attention in recent years, little is known about detailed cognitive functions in histologically diagnosed individuals. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the association of liver pathological changes with cognitive features and further explore the underlying brain manifestations. METHODS AND PATIENTS We performed a cross-sectional study in 320 subjects who underwent liver biopsy. Among the enrolled participants, 225 underwent assessments of global cognition and cognitive subdomains. Furthermore, 70 individuals received functional magnetic resonance imaging scans for neuroimaging evaluations. The associations among liver histological features, brain alterations, and cognitive functions were evaluated using structural equation model. RESULTS Compared with controls, patients with NAFLD had poorer immediate memory and delayed memory. Severe liver steatosis (odds ratio, 2.189; 95% CI, 1.020-4.699) and ballooning (OR, 3.655; 95% CI, 1.419-9.414) were related to a higher proportion of memory impairment. Structural magnetic resonance imaging showed that patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis exhibited volume loss in left hippocampus and its subregions of subiculum and presubiculum. Task-based magnetic resonance imaging showed that patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis had decreased left hippocampal activation. Path analysis demonstrated that higher NAFLD activity scores were associated with lower subiculum volume and reduced hippocampal activation, and such hippocampal damage contributed to lower delayed memory scores. CONCLUSIONS We are the first to report the presence and severity of NAFLD to be associated with an increased risk of memory impairment and hippocampal structural and functional abnormalities. These findings stress the significance of early cognitive evaluation in patients with NAFLD.

Abstract
Naïve pluripotent state can be obtained by several strategies from various types of cells, in which the cell fate roadmap as well as key biological events involved in the journey have been described in detail. Here, we carefully explored the chromatin accessibility dynamics during the primed-to-naïve transition by adopting a dual fluorescent reporter system and the assay for transposase-accessible chromatin (ATAC)-seq. Our results revealed critical chromatin remodeling events and highlight the discordance between chromatin accessibility and transcriptional activity. We further demonstrate that the differential epigenetic modifications and transcription factor (TF) activities may play a critical role in regulating gene expression, and account for the observed variations in gene expression despite similar chromatin landscapes.

Abstract
Wound healing, known as a fundamental healthcare issue worldwide, has been attracting great attention from researchers. Here, novel bioactive gellan gum microfibers loaded with antibacterial peptides (ABPs) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are proposed for wound healing by using microfluidic spinning. Benefitting from the high controllability of microfluidics, bioactive microfibers with uniform morphologies are obtained. The loaded ABPs are demonstrated to effectively act on bacteria at the wound site, reducing the risk of bacterial infection. Besides, sustained release of VEGF from microfibers helps to accelerate angiogenesis and further promote wound healing. The practical value of woven bioactive microfibers is demonstrated via animal experiments, where the wound healing process is greatly facilitated because of the excellent circulation of air and nutritious substances. Featured with the above properties, it is believed that the novel bioactive gellan gum microfibers would have a remarkable effect in the field of biomedical application, especially in promoting wound healing.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to examine the radiographic manifestations of seminal vesicle tuberculosis (SVT) on magnetic resonance imaging to gain a deeper understanding of this disease. Methods The clinical symptoms, general conditions, relevant laboratory tests and radiological data of 13 patients diagnosed with SVT were collected through bacteriological examination. A descriptive analysis was used to explore the composition ratio and rate values of the collected data. Results All 13 cases (100.0%) showed isointense signals on T1WI and hypointense signals on T2WI in the affected seminal vesicles, with the disappearance of the multi-chambered high signal on T2WI in normal seminal vesicles. Eight cases (61.5%) showed diffusion restriction on DWI of the affected seminal vesicle and significant enhancement on the contrast scan, whereas five cases (38.5%) showed unrestricted diffusion and mild enhancement on the contrast scan. Patients with significant enhancements exhibited higher counts and neutrophil percentages than patients with mild enhancements, with statistically significant differences (Z = 2.196, P = 0.030; Z = 2.781, P = 0.003, respectively). The counts and percentage of lymphocytes, CD3+T cells and CD4+T cells were significantly lower in patients with significant enhancements than in those with mild enhancements, with statistically significant differences (Z = -2.196, P = 0.030; Z = -2.928, P = 0.002; Z = -2.928, P = 0.002; Z = -2.928, P = 0.002, respectively). Patients with significant enhancements were more likely to have active pulmonary tuberculosis than those with mild enhancements, with a statistically significant difference (P = 0.035). Conclusion Magnetic resonance imaging reveals distinct radiographic features of SVT, and variations in imaging presentations can indicate a patient's immune status.

Abstract
Diabetes poses severe global public health problems and places heavy burdens on the medical and economic systems of society. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) accounts for 90% of these cases. Diabetes also often accompanies serious complications that threaten multiple organs such as the brain, eyes, kidneys, and the cardiovascular system. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) carried by extracellular vesicles (EV-miRNAs) are considered to mediate cross-organ and cross-cellular communication and have a vital role in the pathophysiology of T2D. They also offer promising sources of diabetes-related biomarkers and serve as effective therapeutic targets. Here, we briefly reviewed studies of EV-miRNAs in T2D and related complications. Specially, we innovatively explore the targeting nature of miRNA action due to the target specificity of vesicle binding, aiding mechanism understanding as well as the detection and treatment of diseases.

Abstract
We aimed to summarise current evidence on different antidiabetic drugs to delay cognitive impairment, including mild cognitive impairment, dementia, Alzheimer's disease (AD) and vascular dementia, among subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Medline, Cochrane and Embase databases were searched from inception to 31 July 2022. Two investigators independently reviewed and screened trials comparing antidiabetic drugs with no antidiabetic drugs, placebo, or other active antidiabetic drugs on cognitive outcomes in T2DM. Data were analysed using meta-analysis and network meta-analysis. Twenty-seven studies met the inclusion criteria, including 3 randomised controlled trials, 19 cohort studies and 5 case-control studies. Compared with non-user, SGLT-2i (OR 0.41 [95% CI 0.22-0.76]), GLP-1RA (OR 0.34 [95% CI 0.14-0.85]), thiazolidinedione (OR 0.60 [95% CI 0.51-0.69]), and DPP-4i (OR 0.78 [95% CI 0.61-0.99]) users had a decreased risk of dementia, whereas sulfonylurea (OR 1.43 [95% CI 1.11-1.82]) increased dementia risk. Network meta-analysis showed that SGLT-2i was most likely to rank best (SUCRA = 94.4%), GLP-1 RA second best (SUCRA = 92.7%), thiazolidinedione third best (SUCRA = 74.7%) and DPP-4i fourth best (SUCRA = 54.9%), while sulfonylurea second worst (SUCRA = 20.0%) for decreasing dementia outcomes, by synthesising evidence from direct and indirect comparisons of multiple intervention. Evidence suggests the effects of SGLT-2i ≈ GLP-1 RAs > thiazolidinedione > DPP-4i for delaying cognitive impairment, dementia and AD outcomes, whereas sulfonylurea was associated with the highest risk. These findings provide evidence for evaluating the optional treatment for clinical practice. PROSPERO REGISTRATION: Registration no. CRD42022347280.

Abstract
Background: While evidence supports glycemic control benefits for individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) using hybrid closed-loop (HCL) systems, HCL automated insulin delivery therapy in China has not been assessed. This study evaluated safety events and effectiveness during HCL system use by Chinese adolescents and adults with T1DM. Methods: Sixty-two participants (n = 12 adolescents with a mean ± standard deviation [SD] of 15.5 ± 1.1 years and n = 50 adults [mean ± SD of 37.6 ± 11.1 years]) with T1DM and baseline A1C of 7.1% ± 1.0% underwent a run-in period (∼2 weeks) using open-loop Manual Mode (sensor-augmented pump) insulin delivery with the MiniMed™ 770G system with the Guardian™ Sensor (3) glucose sensor, followed by a study period (4 weeks) with HCL Auto Mode enabled. Analyses compared continuous glucose monitoring data and insulin delivered during the run-in versus study period (Wilcoxon signed-rank test or t-test). Safety events included rates of severe hypoglycemia and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Results: Compared to baseline run-in, overall Auto Mode use increased time in range (TIR, 70-180 mg/dL) from 75.3% to 80.9% (P < 0.001) and reduced time below range (TBR, <70 mg/dL) from 4.7% to 2.2% (P < 0.001). Subgroup analysis demonstrated that participants (n = 29) with baseline A1C <7.0% had TBR that reduced from 5.6% to 2.0%, while participants (n = 21) with baseline A1C ≥7.5% had time above range (TAR, >180 mg/dL) that reduced from 31.6% to 20.8%. Auto Mode use also increased the percentage achieving combined recommendations for time at sensor glucose ranges (i.e., TIR of >70%, TBR of <4% and TAR of <25%) from 24.2% at baseline to 77.4% at study end. Total daily insulin dose reduced from 42.8 ± 19.8 to 40.7 ± 18.9 U (P = 0.013). There were no severe hypoglycemic, DKA, or serious adverse events. Conclusions: Chinese adolescents and adults, some of whom met target A1C at baseline, safely achieved significantly improved glycemia with 1 month of MiniMed 770G system use when compared to open-loop insulin delivery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tissue and cell-specific gene targeting has been widely employed in biomedical research. In the pancreas, the commonly used Cre recombinase recognizes and recombines loxP sites. However, to selectively target different genes in distinct cells, a dual recombinase system is required. METHOD We developed an alternative recombination system mediated by FLPo, which recognizes frt DNA sequences for pancreatic dual recombinase-mediated genetic manipulation. An IRES-FLPo cassette was targeted between the translation stop code and 3-UTR of the mouse pdx1 gene in a Bacterial Artificial Chromosome using recombineering technology. Transgenic BAC-Pdx1-FLPo mice were developed by pronuclear injection. RESULTS Highly efficient recombination activity was observed in the pancreas by crossing the founder mice with Flp reporter mice. When the BAC-Pdx1-FLPo mice were bred with conditional FSF-KRasG12D and p53 F/F mice, pancreatic cancer developed in the compound mice. The characteristics of pancreatic cancer resembled those derived from conditional LSL-KRasG12D and p53 L/L mice controlled by pdx1-Cre. CONCLUSIONS We have generated a new transgenic mouse line expressing FLPo, which enables highly efficient pancreatic-specific gene recombination. When combined with other available Cre lines, this system can be utilized to target different genes in distinct cells for pancreatic research.

Abstract
AIMS To evaluate the prevalence of vitamin B12 deficiency in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus receiving metformin treatment and to investigate the effects of metformin daily dose and treatment duration on the prevalence of vitamin B12 deficiency and peripheral neuropathy (PN). MATERIALS AND METHODS In this multicenter cross-sectional study, 1027 Chinese patients who had been taking ≥1000 mg/day metformin for ≥1 year were enrolled using proportionate stratified random sampling based on daily dose and treatment duration. Primary measures included the prevalence of vitamin B12 deficiency (<148 pmol/L), borderline B12 deficiency (148 pmol/L-211 pmol/L), and PN. RESULTS The prevalence of vitamin B12 deficiency, borderline deficiency, and PN were 2.15%, 13.66%, and 11.59%, respectively. Patients receiving ≥1500 mg/day metformin had significantly higher prevalence of borderline vitamin B12 deficiency (16.76% vs. 9.91%, p = .0015) and serum B12 ≤221 pmol/L (19.25% vs. 11.64%, p < .001) than patients receiving <1500 mg/day metformin. No difference was found in prevalence of borderline vitamin B12 deficiency (12.58% vs. 15.49%, p = .1902) and serum B12 ≤221 pmol/L (14.91% vs. 17.32%, p = .3055) between patients receiving metformin for ≥3 and <3 years. Patients with vitamin B12 deficiency had numerically higher PN prevalence (18.18% vs. 11.27%, p = .3192) than patients without it. Multiple logistic analyses revealed that HbA1c and metformin daily dose were associated with the prevalence of borderline B12 deficiency and B12 ≤221 pmol/L. CONCLUSIONS High daily dosage (≥1500 mg/day) played an important role in metformin-associated vitamin B12 deficiency while not contributing to the risk of PN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND TUB-like protein 4 (TULP4) is one of the distant members of tubby family proteins, whose function remains largely unknown. In the present study, we intend to identify the role of TULP4 in schizophrenia from human samples and animal models. METHODS Whole-exome sequencing was used to detect the four schizophrenia families collected. In different cell lines, the effects of identified variants in TULP4 gene on its expression and localization were analyzed. Knockdown models in utero and adult mice were employed to investigate the role of Tulp4 on neuronal migration and schizophrenia-related behavior. Subsequently, co-IP assays were used to search for proteins that interact with TULP4 and the effects of mutants on the molecular function of TULP4. RESULTS For the first time, we identified five rare variants in TULP4 from schizophrenia families, of which three significantly reduced TULP4 protein expression. Knockdown the expression of Tulp4 delayed neuronal migration during embryological development and consequently triggered abnormal behaviors in adult mice, including impaired sensorimotor gating and cognitive dysfunction. Furthermore, we confirmed that TULP4 is involved in the formation of a novel E3 ligase through interaction with CUL5-ELOB/C-RNF7 and the three deleterious variants affected the binding amount of TULP4 and CUL5 to a certain extent. CONCLUSIONS Together, we believe TULP4 plays an important role in neurodevelopment and subsequent schizophrenic-related phenotypes through its E3 ubiquitin ligase function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adequate response to moderate (conscious) sedation varies significantly between individuals. Polymorphisms in genes encoding drug metabolizing enzymes can lead to inter-individual variability in drug efficacy, potentially influencing sedation requirements during endoscopic procedures. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the potential role of inter-individual variation in inherited polymorphisms of drug-metabolizing enzymes, cytochrome P450 (CYP450), specifically CYP3A4 and CYP3A5, in sedation requirements for outpatient endoscopic procedures. METHODS A retrospective analysis of sedation requirements and pharmacogenomics data in 106 unique patients who received outpatient esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), colonoscopy, or both between December 2011 and February 2019 was conducted. Patients were divided into two groups based on their sedation requirements during endoscopy (high vs. normal sedation). RESULTS Patients with reduced a CYP2C19 metabolism (poor + intermediate metabolizers) (odds ratio [OR] = 0.38, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.16-0.91, p = 0.03), poor CYP3A5 metabolism (OR = 0.25, 95% CI: 0.095-0.65, p = 0.0046), and poor UGT1A1 (OR = 2.76, 95% CI: 1.07-7.13, p = 0.08) had higher odds of requiring normal sedation compared to those with CYP2C19 increased metabolism, CYP3A5 intermediate metabolism, and UGT1A1 intermediate metabolism. CONCLUSION Information about inter-individual variation in (CYP450) genes may be useful for determining the sedation requirements for outpatient endoscopic procedures. We found that patients with reduced CYP2C19 metabolism, poor CYP3A5 metabolism, and poor UGT1A1 metabolism were more likely to require normal sedation requirements during outpatient endoscopic procedures.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the characteristics of autonomic neuropathy in patients with vestibular migraine (VM) by sympathetic skin reflex (SSR) and R-R interval variation (RRIV). Methods: Seventy-three patients with interseizure VM and 36 healthy controls in the Department of Neurology affiliated to Shanghai Fourth People's Hospital of Tongji University from November 1, 2019 to December 31, 2021 were prospectively enrolled. SSR and RRIV were performed and relevant parameters were recorded, including SSR latency, SSR amplitude, RRIV during calm breathing (R%), RRIV during deep breathing (D%), RRIV difference between deep breathing and calm breathing (D%-R%), RRIV ratio between deep breathing and calm breathing (D%/R%), and the difference and correlation of various parameters between VM patients and healthy controls were analyzed. Results: Among the 73 patients with VM, there were 12 males and 61 females, and aged (46±13) years. While among 36 healthy controls, there were 6 males and 30 females, and aged (46±7) years. Among the 73 VM patients, abnormal SSR, abnormal RRIV, abnormal SSR and RRIV, and abnormal SSR or RRIV was detected in 38 cases (52%), 17 cases (23%), 11 cases (15%) and 44 cases (60%), respectively. Compared with healthy controls, the lower extremity SSR latency [(1 719±289) ms] in VM patients was longer than that in control group [(1 500±349) ms] (P=0.001), but the upper extremity SSR amplitude [1.6 (0.8, 3.0) mV] was lower than that in control group [2.6 (1.8, 4.2) mV] (P=0.006). SSR amplitude, R% and D% were negatively correlated with age in VM patients (rs=-0.311, P=0.007; rs=-0.237, P=0.043; rs=-0.263, P=0.024, respectively). SSR of lower extremity in VM patients was longer than that of upper extremity [(1 719±289) ms vs (1 244±185) ms, P<0.001], but the amplitude of lower extremity was lower than that of upper extremity [0.8 (0.3, 1.7) mV vs 1.6 (0.8, 3.0) mV, P<0.001]. SSR latency of upper limb was positively correlated with SSR latency of lower limb (r=0.436, P<0.001), the amplitude of upper limb was positively correlated with amplitude of lower limb (rs=0.456, P<0.001), and D% was positively correlated with R% (rs=0.357, P=0.002). Conclusion: The autonomic neuropathy during VM interphase features with imbalance between sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system, and the sympathetic nerve function is mainly impaired.

Abstract
NAC transcription factors (TFs) play critical roles in plant immunity by modulating the expression of downstream genes via binding to specific cis-elements in promoters. Here, we report the function and regulatory network of a pathogen- and defense phytohormone-inducible NAC TF gene, ONAC083, in rice (Oryza sativa) immunity. ONAC083 localizes to the nucleus and exhibits transcriptional activation activity that depends on its C-terminal region. Knockout of ONAC083 enhances rice immunity against Magnaporthe oryzae, strengthening pathogen-induced defense responses, and boosting chitin-induced pattern-triggered immunity (PTI), whereas ONAC083 overexpression has opposite effects. We identified ONAC083-binding sites in the promoters of 82 genes, and showed that ONAC083 specifically binds to a conserved element with the core sequence ACGCAA. ONAC083 activated the transcription of the genes OsRFPH2-6, OsTrx1, and OsPUP4 by directly binding to the ACGCAA element. OsRFPH2-6, encoding a RING-H2 protein with an N-terminal transmembrane region and a C-terminal typical RING domain, negatively regulated rice immunity against M. oryzae and chitin-triggered PTI. These data demonstrate that ONAC083 negatively contributes to rice immunity against M. oryzae by directly activating the transcription of OsRFPH2-6 through the ACGCAA element in its promoter. Overall, our study provides new insight into the molecular regulatory network of NAC TFs in rice immunity.

Abstract
AIM The association of bone turnover with the incidence and progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is unclear. We aimed to evaluate serum levels of bone turnover markers in relation to NAFLD and nonalcoholic hepatic steatohepatitis (NASH). METHODS Two cohorts were involved in our study. For the first cohort, 370 participants without NAFLD were retrospectively recruited and followed up for incident NAFLD according to ultrasound. For the second cohort, 562 subjects who underwent liver biopsy were included and grouped into non-NAFLD, non-NASH or NASH according to the NASH Clinical Research Network system. The bone turnover markers osteocalcin, C-terminal telopeptide (CTX) and N-terminal propeptide of type-1 procollagen (P1NP) were measured. RESULTS Baseline osteocalcin was significantly lower in subjects who developed NAFLD (13.93 [11.03;16.39] versus 18.24 [15.45;22.47] ng/ml, P < 0.001), with a median of 26.4 months of follow-up. Low levels of osteocalcin, but not CTX or P1NP, was an independent predictor of incident NAFLD (OR 0.755 [95%CI 0.668; 0.855] P < 0.001). Moreover, the osteocalcin level was negatively associated with the degree of liver steatosis. Furthermore, subjects with NASH had significantly lower osteocalcin than non-NASH and non-NAFLD group (13.28 [10.49;16.59] versus 14.91 [12.45;18.09] versus 18.21 [15.04;22.05] ng/ml, all P < 0.001). A low osteocalcin level was an independent risk factor for NASH (OR for highest versus lowest quartile: 0.282 [0.147;0.543] P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Low level of osteocalcin, but not CTX or P1NP, was associated with NAFLD and NASH, indicating its potential role as an important endocrine regulator of hepatic energy metabolism.

Abstract
As correlation strength has a key influence on the simulation of strongly correlated materials, many approaches have been proposed to obtain the parameter using first-principles calculations. However, a comparison of the different Coulomb strengths obtained using these approaches and an investigation of the mechanisms behind them are still needed. Taking lanthanide metals as an example, we research the factors that affect the effective Coulomb interaction strength, Ueff, by local screened Coulomb correction (LSCC), linear response (LR), and constrained random-phase approximation (cRPA) in the Vienna Ab initio Simulation Package. The Ueff LSCC value increases from 4.75 to 7.78 eV, Ueff LR is almost stable at about 6.0 eV (except for Eu, Er, and Yb), and Ueff cRPA shows a two-stage decreasing trend in both light and heavy lanthanides. To investigate these differences, we establish a scheme to analyze the coexistence and competition between the orbital localization and the screening effect. We find that LSCC and cRPA are dominated by the orbital localization and the screening effect, respectively, whereas LR shows the balance of the competition between the two factors. Additionally, the performance of these approaches is influenced by different starting points from the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) and PBE + U, especially for cRPA. Our results provide useful knowledge for understanding the Ueff of lanthanide materials, and similar analyses can also be used in the research of other correlation strength simulation approaches.

Abstract
AIMS It is acknowledged that aberrant liver immunity contributes to the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells, an innate-like T-cell subset, are enriched in the human liver. Nevertheless, the characterisation and potential role of hepatic MAIT cells in T2DM remain unclear. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fourteen newly diagnosed T2DM subjects and 15 controls received liver biopsy. The frequency and cytokine production of MAIT cells were analysed by flow cytometry. The expression of genes involved in glucose metabolism was determined in HepG2 cells co-cultured with hepatic MAIT cells. RESULTS Compared with controls, hepatic MAIT cell frequency was significantly increased in T2DM patients (24.66% vs. 14.61%, p = 0.001). There were more MAIT cells producing interferon-γ (IFN-γ, 60.49% vs. 33.33%, p = 0.021) and tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α, 46.84% vs. 5.91%, p = 0.021) in T2DM than in controls, whereas their production of interleukin 17 (IL-17) was comparable (15.25% vs. 4.55%, p = 0.054). Notably, an IFN-γ+ TNF-α+ IL-17+/- producing MAIT cell subset was focussed, which showed an elevated proportion in T2DM (42.66% vs. 5.85%, p = 0.021) and positively correlated with plasma glucose levels. A co-culture experiment further indicated that hepatic MAIT cells from T2DM upregulated the gene expression of pyruvate carboxylase, a key molecule involved in gluconeogenesis, in HepG2 cells, and this response was blocked with neutralising antibodies against IFN-γ and TNF-α. CONCLUSIONS Our data implicate an increased Th1-like MAIT cell subset in the liver of newly diagnosed T2DM subjects, which induces hyperglycaemia by promoting hepatic gluconeogenesis. It provides novel insights into the immune regulation of metabolic homoeostasis. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03296605 (registered at www. CLINICALTRIALS gov on 12 October 2018).

Abstract
688 Background: Guidelines recommend patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) undergo genetic testing for germline pathogenic variants (PV). The aim of this study was to evaluate compliance with recently updated guidelines (May 2019) and assess subsequent uptake and outcomes of genetic testing in PDAC patients. In addition, social and clinical factors associated with genetic testing were assessed. Methods: A retrospective chart review of patients diagnosed with PDAC between May 2018 and August 2020 was performed. Discussion and subsequent uptake of genetic testing was reviewed and compared between a 12-month period before (pre-guideline) and a 12-month period after (post-guideline) guidelines were updated, accounting for a three-month transition period. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to assess factors predictive of undergoing genetic testing. Results: In total, 534 patients with PDAC were identified; 321 (60.1%) in the pre-guideline period and 213 (39.9%) in the post-guideline period. The mean age at diagnosis was 68 years and 47% were female. Genetic testing was discussed in 34% (109/321) of pre-guideline and in 39% (84/213) of post-guideline patients ( P = .23). Of those, 82% (89/109) of patients in pre-guideline and 75% (63/84) in post-guideline groups underwent subsequent genetic testing ( P = .71). In 26 (17.1%) of 152 tested patients, a PV was identified, of which 17 (11.2%; 17/152) had a PDAC-associated PV. Age, cancer stage at diagnosis, length of survival, and having a first-degree relative with pancreatic cancer were significant predictors of genetic testing on multivariate analysis. Conclusions: Adherence to recently updated guidelines is poor and germline genetic testing in PDAC patients remains insufficient. Efforts to increase awareness of benefits of testing, which include personalized therapies for patients and cascade testing in family members for subsequent enrollment in pancreatic cancer surveillance programs, could improve future uptake.[Table: see text]

Abstract
689 Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly lethal cancer typically discovered at incurable stages. The PRECEDE Consortium was established to accelerate early detection by using a large-scale, collaborative, innovative model, predicated on standardized collection of demographic, clinical, and imaging data from high-risk individuals (HRI). Here we report the initial pancreas imaging findings in Cohort 1, representing HRI with familial pancreatic cancer (FPC) or pathogenic germline variants (PGV) in PDAC susceptibility genes with a 1st or 2nd degree relative with PDAC. Methods: The PRECEDE Consortium (NCT04970056) began enrollment in 5/2020. HRI enrolled prospectively at centers worldwide into one of 7 cohorts based on personal and/or family history of PDAC and PGV status. PRECEDE’s planned enrollment is 10,000 patients. Data sharing is required to join PRECEDE, facilitated by a standardized data collection system and central database (PRECEDELink). Imaging (MRI/MRCP and EUS) is performed using standardized image acquisition and reporting templates. Imaging and clinical sequencing data are stored and analyzed in the PRECEDE data cloud. Results: By 9/16/2022, 26 sites enrolled 3156 patients in 7 cohorts, with 1716 in Cohort 1. Cohort 1 was 60% female, 80% white; 48% met FPC criteria, and 52% were PGV carriers. Within Cohort 1, 658 FPC and 965 PGV (1353 total, 79%) underwent imaging (68% MRI; 32% EUS). Overall, 573/1353 (42%) had pancreas abnormalities: 320/573 (49%) FPC, and 253/573 (36%) PGV (OR [95% CI] 1.65 [1.32–2.06], P < 0.001). Cysts were the most common abnormality, present in 549/1353 (41%) and accounting for 310/320 (97%) FPC and 239/253 (94%) PGV HRI abnormalities. Of 549 HRI with cysts, 262 (48%) had 1 cyst, including 137/310 (44%) FPC and 125/239 (52%) PGV HRI (OR 1.43 [1.07–1.92], P = .012) The remaining 287/549 (52%) had ≥2 cysts, including 173/310 (56%) FPC and 114/239 (48%) PGV HRI (OR 1.98 [1.49–2.64], P < 0.001). Worrisome features occurred in 83/1353 (6.1%) including: 14 (1%) cyst > 2 cm, 7 (0.5%) cyst ≥3 cm, 35 (2.6%) main pancreatic duct (MPD) diameter ≥5 mm; 2 (0.15%) duct strictures; and 25 (1.8%) solid masses. Solid masses included 1 (0.07%) PDAC, 9 (0.7%) neuroendocrine tumors, and 15 (1.1%) benign lesions (e.g. lipoma, splenule). Conclusions: Pancreatic abnormalities are common in a cohort of 1353 HRI enrolled in PRECEDE; 6.1% of HRI had findings with worrisome features and clinical implications. Multiple cysts were significantly more common in FPC HRI (OR 1.98); worrisome findings did not differ between FPC and PGV groups. The longitudinal study of this growing HRI cohort with standardized imaging and matched comprehensive epidemiological, clinical, and laboratory data, along with germline testing, will provide critical information and understanding of PDAC risk, and augment existing clinical decision-making models governing surveillance and treatment.

Abstract
Popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES) is a rare vascular disease, and cases of bilateral PAES associated with distinct symptoms in each of the affected legs are very rare. In an effort to improve current understanding regarding the presentation and treatment of this condition, a case of bilateral PAES is herein described with a corresponding review of the associated literature. The overall process of diagnosing and treating one patient affected by bilateral PAES was retrospectively assessed to provide comprehensive insight regarding this disease. This patient was diagnosed via contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT), and right-sided symptomatic PAES was successfully treated via autogenous saphenous venous graft arterial bypass surgery. In contrast, the asymptomatic left-sided PAES in this patient was subject to close follow-up monitoring. Over a 2-year postoperative follow-up period, this patient did not experience any symptoms or complications. As such, autogenous saphenous venous graft arterial bypass surgery represents a safe and efficacious means of treating PAES, whereas surgery may not be required for cases of asymptomatic PAES even in patients with a bilateral presentation.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate whether intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring without alarms (intermittently scanned CGM (isCGM)) improves glycaemic control over capillary blood glucose monitoring (BGM) among adult type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) patients with suboptimal control. MATERIALS AND METHODS Adults with T1DM and HbA1c between 7% and 10% were 1:1 randomized to use isCGM or BGM for 24 weeks. The primary outcome was the change in HbA1c levels after intervention. The secondary outcomes were the changes in sensor-derived metrics. RESULTS A total of 104 adults with T1DM (34.2 ± 12.2 years; M/F, 38/66) were randomized to the isCGM group (n = 54) and the BGM group (n = 50). After 24 weeks, HbA1c significantly decreased in the isCGM group (8.1 ± 0.7% to 7.5 ± 1.0%) and the BGM group (8.0 ± 0.8% to 7.7 ± 1.0%) with between-group differences of 0.3% (95% coefficient intervals, 0.0%-0.6%; P = 0.04). The percentage of HbA1c reduction over 1.0% and 1.5% was significantly higher in the isCGM group with adjusted odds ratios of 2.5 (95% CI: 1.1-5.5; P = 0.03) and 3.2 (95% CI: 1.1-9.0; P = 0.03). Mean time-in-range 70-180 mg/dl (TIR) in the isCGM group significantly increased (from 58.5 ± 13.0% to 63.0 ± 12.6%), whereas mean TIR was similar in the BGM group (from 58.0 ± 14.6% to 57.5 ± 14.5%). Time spent in hyperglycemia reduced more in the isCGM group and time spent in hypoglycemia did not change significantly in both groups. CONCLUSIONS Among adult T1DM patients with suboptimal glycaemic control, compared with BGM, isCGM use resulted in a statistically significant improvement in glycaemic control after 24-week intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Survey studies have found an increased prevalence of migraine in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, the clinical characteristics of migraines in this population are unknown. We conducted a retrospective medical record review study to characterize migraines in the IBD population. METHODS Six hundred seventy-five migraine patients (280 with IBD, 395 without IBD) who were evaluated at Mayo Clinic Rochester, Mayo Clinic Arizona, or Mayo Clinic Florida between July 2009 and March 2021 were included. Patients with ICD codes for migraine and either Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) were selected. Electronic health care records were reviewed. Patients confirmed to have IBD and migraine were included. Demographic, IBD, and migraine characteristics were collected. Statistical analysis was completed using SAS. RESULTS Patients with IBD were less often male (8.6% vs 21.3%, P < .001) and had a higher Charlson Comorbidity Index (>2: 24.6% vs 15.7%, P = .003); 54.6% had CD and 39.3% had UC. Patients with IBD had migraine with aura and without aura more frequently ( OR 2.20, P < .001 and OR 2.79, P < .001, respectively) than non-IBD patients. Additionally, those with IBD less commonly had chronic migraine (OR 0.23, P < .001) and less commonly had chronic migraine or treatment for migraine (ORs 0.23-0.55, P ≤ .002). CONCLUSIONS Migraine with and without aura have increased prevalence in IBD patients. Further study of this topic will be helpful to clarify the prevalence of migraine, establish this population's response to treatment, and better understand the reason(s) for a low rate of treatment.

Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to explore the clinical features and spontaneous brain activity among patients with latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) and to investigate the relationship among these characteristics. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study using cognitive assessments and resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) to evaluate the cognitive function and brain activities of healthy controls (HCs) and patients with LADA. Functional connectivity (FC) analysis was performed on the brain regions that showed significantly different activation in regional homogeneity (ReHo) analysis between the two groups. Furthermore, a linear regression model was conducted for the association between metabolism and cognition. RESULTS This study enrolled patients with LADA (and age-, sex-, and education-matched HCs). Patients with LADA had worse cognitive status at the general level and poorer memory than controls. Rs-fMRI analysis among patients with LADA showed decreased ReHo values in the right occipital lobe and temporal lobe and decreased seed-based FC in the right parietal lobe compared to those of controls. The seed-based FC values in the right parietal lobe were positively associated with word fluency and processing speed in patients with LADA. Furthermore, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol was negatively correlated with Montreal Cognitive Assessment scores in patients with LADA. CONCLUSIONS Patients with LADA had worse cognitive function and decreased spontaneous brain activity in the temporal lobe and occipital lobe compared to controls. Moreover, glycolipid metabolism was closely related to brain structure and function in patients with LADA.

Abstract
Background Previous research has linked polymorphisms in the SIRT1 gene to depressive symptoms, particularly in Chinese individuals. However, it is not clear how personality traits may contribute to this association. Methods To explore the potential mediating effect of personality traits, we utilized a mediation model to examine the relationship between the SIRT1 rs12415800 polymorphism and depressive symptoms in 787 Chinese college students. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression (CES-D) scale, while personality traits were measured using the Big Five Inventory (BFI). Results Our analysis indicated a significant association between the SIRT1 rs12415800 polymorphism and depressive symptoms, with this relationship partially mediated by the personality traits of neuroticism and conscientiousness. Specifically, individuals who were heterozygous for the rs12415800 polymorphism and had higher levels of conscientiousness were less likely to experience depressive symptoms. Conversely, those who were homozygous for the rs12415800 polymorphism and had higher levels of neuroticism were more likely to experience depressive symptoms. Conclusion Our results suggest that personality traits, particularly neuroticism and conscientiousness, may play a critical role in the association between the SIRT1 rs12415800 polymorphism and depressive symptoms among Chinese college students. These findings highlight the importance of considering both genetic factors and personality traits when exploring the etiology of depressive symptoms in this population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become an epidemic worldwide and has been linked to a series of metabolic co-morbidities. Prolactin (PRL) has recently been found to have a negative effect on NAFLD, but a causal relationship is not well-understood. Here we investigated the causative relationship between PRL and NAFLD occurrence. METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, we enrolled patients without NAFLD who were diagnosed by abdominal ultrasonography undergone serum PRL testing at 8.00 a.m. at baseline, and followed up for a median of 32 (19, 46) months. RESULTS This study enrolled 355 persons [215 men and 140 women; media age 56 (49, 64) years], in which 72 (20.28%) patients who eventually developed NAFLD. Compared with those in the non-NAFLD group, basal serum PRL levels of patients were lower in the NAFLD group [male: 7.35 (5.48, 10.60) vs. 9.13 (6.92, 12.50) ug/L, P = 0.002; female: 5.66 (4.67, 9.03) vs. 9.01 (6.31, 11.60) ug/L, P = 0.009]. The prevalence of NAFLD was significantly decreased along with the increased quartile of basal serum PRL levels in both genders (P < 0.05). Serum PRL concentration was independently associated with NAFLD development [male: OR, 0.881 (0.777, 0.998), P = 0.047; female: OR, 0.725 (0.554, 0.949), P = 0.019]. CONCLUSION Our study is the first to find that basal serum PRL level can predict the occurrence of NAFLD and it may be a potential biomarker to prevent and treat NAFLD.

Abstract
Liver dysfunction is a common complication of Graves' disease (GD) that may be caused by excessive thyroid hormone (TH) or anti-thyroid drugs (ATDs). Radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy is one of the first-line treatments for GD, but it is unclear whether it is safe and effective in patients with liver dysfunction. 510 consecutive patients with GD receiving first RAI were enrolled in the study, and followed up at 3-, 6- and 12-month. Liver dysfunction was recorded in 222 (43.5%) patients. GD patients with liver dysfunction had higher serum levels of free triiodothyronine (FT3) (median 27.6 vs. 20.6 pmol/L, p < 0.001) and free thyroxine (FT4) (median 65.4 vs. 53.5 pmol/L, p < 0.001) levels than those with normal liver function. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that duration of disease (OR = 0.951, 95% CI: 0.992-0.980, p = 0.001) and male gender (OR = 1.106, 95% CI: 1.116-2.384; p = 0.011) were significant differential factors for liver dysfunction. Serum TSH levels were higher in patients with liver dysfunction at all 3 follow-up time points (p = 0.014, 0.008, and 0.025 respectively). FT3 level was lower in patients with liver dysfunction at 3-month follow-up (p = 0.047), but the difference disappeared at 6 and 12 months (p = 0.351 and 0.264 respectively). The rate of euthyroidism or hypothyroidism was higher in patients with liver dysfunction than in those with normal liver function at 3 months (74.5% vs 62.5%; p = 0.005) and 6 months (82.1% vs 69.1%; p = 0.002) after RAI treatment, but the difference did not persist at 12-month follow-up (89.6% vs 83.2%, p = 0.081).There were no statistically significant differences in treatment efficacy (94.48% vs 90.31%, p = 0.142), incidence of early-onset hypothyroidism (87.73% vs 83.67%, p = 0.277), and recurrence rate (4.91% vs 7.14%, p = 0.379) between the 2 groups at 12-month follow-up. In conclusion, the efficacy of RAI was comparable in GD patients with liver dysfunction and those with normal liver function.
