Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VP shunt) insertion is one of the mainstays of treatment of hydrocephalus and although very effective, a high rate of shunt failure persists globally. The purpose of the study was to quantify the ventriculoperitoneal shunt failure rate at Red Cross War Memorial Children's Hospital (RCWMCH) and assess potential factors contributing to shunt failures. METHODS A retrospective review of VP shunts done at RCWMCH between August 2015 through December 2019 was performed. Operative notes, discharge summaries and patient folders were reviewed to collect information about patient age, aetiology of hydrocephalus, index vs revision shunt, shunt system and other noticeable variables. Overall shunt failure was recorded. Univariate and multivariate models were used to determine causal relationship. RESULTS Four hundred and ninety-four VP shunt operations were performed on 340 patients with 48.8% being index shunts and 51.2% revision shunts. The average patient age was 3.4 months. The total VP shunt failure rate over the study period was 31.2%, with a 7.3% infection rate, 13.6% blockage and 3.6% disconnection rate. The most common aetiologies were post-infectious hydrocephalus 29.4%, myelomeningocele 19.7% and premature intraventricular haemorrhage 14.1%. Orbis-sigma II (OSVII), distal slit valves and antibiotic-impregnated catheters were used most frequently. Failure rates were highest in the revision group, 34.7% compared to 27.3% in index shunts. Sixty-five percent (65%) of the head circumferences measured were above the + 3 Z score (> 90th centile). CONCLUSION VP shunt failure occurs most commonly in revision surgery, and care should be taken at the index operation to reduce failure risk. Surgeon level, duration of surgery, aetiology of hydrocephalus and shunt system used did not influence overall failure rates. A closer look at larger head circumferences, their effect on shunt systems and the socio-economic factors behind late presentations should be investigated further in the future.

Abstract
Recently a dark matter-electron (DM-electron) paradigm has drawn much attention. Models beyond the standard halo model describing DM accelerated by high energy celestial bodies are under intense examination as well. In this Letter, a velocity components analysis (VCA) method dedicated to swift analysis of accelerated DM-electron interactions via semiconductor detectors is proposed and the first HPGe detector-based accelerated DM-electron analysis is realized. Utilizing the method, the first germanium based constraint on sub-GeV solar reflected DM-electron interaction is presented with the 205.4 kg·day dataset from the CDEX-10 experiment. In the heavy mediator scenario, our result excels in the mass range of 5-15 keV/c^{2}, achieving a 3 orders of magnitude improvement comparing with previous semiconductor experiments. In the light mediator scenario, the strongest laboratory constraint for DM lighter than 0.1 MeV/c^{2} is presented. The result proves the feasibility and demonstrates the vast potential of the VCA technique in future accelerated DM-electron analyses with semiconductor detectors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Background: Static lung hyperinflation (SLH) measured using body plethysmography in patients with asthma is associated with poor outcomes. The severity of SLH may be associated with small airway dysfunction (SAD), which can be measured using impulse oscillometry (IOS). Objective: This study aims to determine the correlation between SLH and SAD in patients with severe asthma and assess the improvement in SLH and SAD with treatment. METHODS We analyzed data from patients who were enrolled in the Taiwan Severe Asthma Registry, which comprises a prospective observational cohort. Plethysmography and IOS were performed regularly. The relationship between spirometry and IOS parameters was determined. Changes in the clinical outcomes in response to treatment were analyzed. RESULTS Of 107 patients with severe asthma, 83 (77.6%) had SLH based on an increased residual volume to total lung capacity ratio (RV/ TLC). Most patients were older women with worse pulmonary function and SAD than those without SLH. SAD, defined as increased airway resistance/reactance, was significantly correlated with SLH. Airway reactance at 5 Hz (X5) ≤-0.21 kPa/(L/s) detected SLH with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.84 (P<.0001; sensitivity, 85.2%; and specificity, 83.3%). After 12 months, patients who received add-on biologics (vs those who did not) had significantly reduced exacerbations, fractional exhaled nitric oxide level, and blood eosinophil counts, as well as improved forced expiratory volume in the first second, X5, and a trend toward reduced RV/TLC ratio. CONCLUSIONS In severe asthma, airway reactance (X5) could be a novel parameter for assessing SLH.

Abstract
Zintl-phase materials have attracted significant research interest owing to the interplay of magnetism and strong spin-orbit coupling, providing a prominent material platform for axion electrodynamics. Here, we report the single-crystal growth, structure, magnetic and electrical/thermal transport properties of the antiferromagnet layer Zintl-phase compound β-EuIn2As2. Importantly, the new layered structure of β-EuIn2As2, in rhombohedral (R3̄m) symmetry, contains triangular layers of Eu2+ ions. The in-plane resistivity ρ(H, T) measurements reveal metal behavior with an antiferromagnetic (AFM) transition (TN ∼ 23.5 K), which is consistent with the heat capacity Cp(H, T) and magnetic susceptibility χ(H, T) measurements. Negative MR was observed in the temperature range from 2 K to 20 K with a maximum MR ratio of 0.06. Unique 4f7J = S = 7/2 Eu2+ spins were supposed magnetically order along the c-axis. The Seebeck coefficient shows a maximum thermopower |Smax| of about 40 μV K-1. The kink around 23 K in the Seebeck coefficient originates from the effect of the antiferromagnetic phase on the electron band structure, while the pronounced thermal conductivity peak at around 10 K is attributed to the phonon-phonon Umklapp scattering. The results suggest that the Eu2+ spin arrangement plays an important role in the magnetic, electrical, and thermal transport properties in β-EuIn2As2, which might be helpful for future potential technical applications.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the impact of preemptive analgesia with ibuprofen on postoperative pain following the extraction of impacted mandibular third molars in a Chinese population, aiming to provide a clinical reference for its application. Methods: This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel-group trial was conducted from April 2022 to October 2023 at the Capital Medical University School of Stomatology (40 cases), Beijing TianTan Hospital, Capital Medical University (22 cases), and Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital, Capital Medical University (20 cases). It included 82 patients with impacted mandibular third molars, with 41 in the ibuprofen group and 41 in the control group. Participants in the ibuprofen group received 300 mg of sustained-release ibuprofen capsules orally 15 min before surgery, while the control group received a placebo. Both groups were instructed to take sustained-release ibuprofen capsules as planned for 3 days post-surgery. Pain intensity was measured using the numerical rating scale at 30 min, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h after surgery, and the use of additional analgesic medication was recorded during days 4 to 6 postoperatively. Results: All 82 patients completed the study according to the protocol. No adverse events such as nausea, vomiting, or allergies were reported in either group during the trial. The ibuprofen group exhibited significantly lower pain scores at 4 h [2.0 (1.0, 4.0) vs. 4.0 (3.0, 5.0)] (Z=-3.73, P<0.001), 6 h [2.0 (1.0, 4.0) vs. 5.0(2.5, 6.0)] (Z=-3.38, P<0.001), and 8 h [2.0 (1.0, 4.0) vs. 5.0 (2.0, 6.0)] (Z=-2.11, P=0.035) postoperatively compared to the control group. There were no statistically significant differences in pain scores between the groups at 30 min, 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h postoperatively (P>0.05). Additionally, 11 out of 41 patients (26.8%) in the ibuprofen group and 23 out of 41 patients (56.1%) in the control group required extra analgesic medication between days 4 and 6 post-surgery, with the ibuprofen group taking significantly fewer additional pills [0.0 (0.0, 1.0) vs. 1.0 (0.0, 3.0)] (Z=-2.81, P=0.005). Conclusions: A pain management regimen involving 300 mg of oral sustained-release ibuprofen capsules administered 15 minutes before surgery and continued for 3 d postoperatively effectively reduces pain levels and the total amount of analgesic medication used after the extraction of impacted mandibular third molars. Considering its efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness, ibuprofen is recommended as a first-line drug for perioperative pain management, enhancing patient comfort during diagnosis and treatment in a feasible manner.

Abstract
This study aims to introduce a new liposome to co-load Antarctic krill oil (AKO) and quercetin (QC) as a new delivery formulation to enrich the application of AKO and QC. The stability of liposomes could be increased by adding an appropriate quantity of soy lecithin (SL). Changes in the composition of the phospholipid membrane were strongly correlated with the stability and release capacity of loaded nutrients. SL2@QC/AKO-lips displayed a nearly spherical shape with higher oxidative stability and controlled the in vitro release performance of QC in simulated digestion. Moreover, in vitro studies indicated that new liposomes had no adverse effects on cell viability and could combine the physiological functions of AKO and QC to protect the HepG2 cells from oleic acid-induced steatosis and oxidative stress. The findings demonstrated that the AKO and QC co-loaded liposomes prepared with the addition of an appropriate quantity of SL had excellent loading efficiency of AKO/QC and good oxidative stability, security and functional activity.

Abstract
Using the fusion-evaporation reaction ^{106}Cd(^{58}Ni,4n)^{160}Os and the gas-filled recoil separator SHANS, two new isotopes _{76}^{160}Os and _{74}^{156}W have been identified. The α decay of ^{160}Os, measured with an α-particle energy of 7080(26) keV and a half-life of 201_{-37}^{+58} μs, is assigned to originate from the ground state. The daughter nucleus ^{156}W is a β^{+} emitter with a half-life of 291_{-61}^{+86} ms. The newly measured α-decay data allow us to derive α-decay reduced widths (δ^{2}) for the N=84 isotones up to osmium (Z=76), which are found to decrease with increasing atomic number above Z=68. The reduction of δ^{2} is interpreted as evidence for the strengthening of the N=82 shell closure toward the proton drip line, supported by the increase of the neutron-shell gaps predicted in theoretical models.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the role and related mechanisms of the LiaSR two-component system in acid tolerance and biofilm formation abilities of Streptococcus mutans (Sm) 593. Methods: The growth curves of various Sm strains in pH=5.5 brian heart infusion (BHI) medium were analyzed. And colony forming unit (CFU) was also performed to evaluate the acid tolerance of Sm. Laurdan probe, H+-K+adenosine triphosphate (ATP)ase activity analysis kit, proton permeability assay and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) were conducted to detect the acid tolerant mechanisms of LiaSR two-component system in Sm. Crystal violet staining, CFU, SYTOX probe and anthrone-sulfuric method were used to analyze the properties and structures of the Sm biofilms. RT-qPCR was conducted to detect the expression levels of underlying regulated genes. Results: The growth of mutants in acidic BHI were inhibited (P<0.05). The acid tolerance of mutants significantly decreased compared to the wild-type strain (P<0.05). In mutants, the activity of H+-ATPase (917.06±59.53 and 469.53±47.65) were elevated by 7.22-folds and 3.70-folds compared to the wild-type strain (127.00±50.71) (P<0.001, P<0.001) and the encoded gene atpD (3.39±0.21 and 1.94±0.17) were also elevated by 3.39-folds and 1.94-folds compared to the wild-type strain (1.00±0.15) (P<0.001, P=0.001). The Laurdan generalized polarization of mutants (0.18±0.04 and 0.18±0.05) increased significantly compared to the wild-type strain (0.08±0.05) (P=0.006, P=0.003) and the expression levels of fabM gene were decreased in mutants (0.52±0.11 and 0.57±0.05) by 1/2 (P=0.014, P=0.022). In liaR deletion mutant, the reduced terminal pH (4.76±0.01) can also be observed (P<0.001). The total amount of the biofilms of three Sm didn't show significant differences (P>0.05). But the number of viable bacteria of mutants' biofilms were decreased [Sm 593: (12.00±2.80)×107 CFU/ml; Sm ΔliaS: (2.95±1.13)×107 CFU/ml; Sm ΔliaR: (7.25±1.60)×107 CFU/ml] (P=0.001, P=0.024). The extracellular DNA were increased by 18.00-folds and 6.50-folds in mutants' biofilms (128.73±15.65 and 46.38±5.52) compared to the wild-type strain (7.16±3.62) (P<0.001, P=0.003). Water-soluble exopolysaccharides could be found up-regulated in liaS deletion mutant [(138.73±10.12) μg/ml] (P=0.003) along with the expression level of gtfC gene (1.65±0.39) (P=0.014). The expression level of gtfD were elevated by 47.43-folds and 16.90-folds in mutants (P<0.001, P=0.010). Conclusions: The LiaSR two-component system can promote the expression of fabM gene and increase the fluidity of Sm which contributes to acid tolerance. The LiaR can also decrease the proton permeability and restrict the entrance of H+. The LiaSR two-component system can negatively regulate the production of the extracellular matrix in Sm biofilm.

Abstract
The increasing antibiotic resistance driven by Pseudomonas aeruginosa typically leads to uncontrolled and persistent inflammatory damage, which is primarily attributed to the virulence and biofilms produced by the bacteria. Herein, we present a novel anti-infective drug strategy designed to inhibit the bacterial quorum sensing system, thereby attenuating P. aeruginosa virulence, and modulating inflammation from drug-resistant bacterial infections. We discovered new quorum sensing LasR/LasB inhibitors derived from the structural modification of a ligustilide derivative library. Of these compounds, 5f demonstrated significant inhibitory activity against LasB (LasB-gfp, IC50 = 8.7 μM) and a moderate inhibitory effect on P. aeruginosa biofilms (IC50 = 7.4 μM). Through live image analysis in a fluorescent protein-labeled zebrafish larva model, we observed that compound 5f significantly inhibited the migration of macrophages. Moreover, compound 5f effectively attenuated quorum sensing-mediated virulence factors and biofilm formation by P. aeruginosa. It also alleviated the inflammatory response by P. aeruginosa-infected macrophages through the downregulation of mitogen-activated protein kinase and NF-κB signal-transduction pathways. Notably, in vivo experiments, this compound demonstrated marked therapeutic effects in acute lung injury models induced by lipopolysaccharides from P. aeruginosa. These results indicate that compound 5f has the potential to be a novel anti-infective candidate against drug-resistant infections caused by P. aeruginosa.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate and analyze the allocation equality of occupational health technology service resource of Gansu disease control and prevention institutions, providing reference basis for optimizing the allocation of occupational health technology service resources. Methods: Combined with the survey data in September 2021, Gansu Province was divided into five economic regions by geographical location and economic characteristics. Taking the service number of enterprises and workers as the analysis dimensions, the allocation level of occupational health technology service resources in different regions was compared. The allocation equality was analyzed through Lorentz curve, Gini coefficient and Theil index. Results: There were 301 occupational health technicians and 1914 sampling and testing equipments of Gansu Provincial disease control and prevention institutions in 2021. All of the technicians and equipments were used for serving 1952 enterprises and 465800 workers. The curvature of Lorentz curves and Gini coefficient which measured by the service number of enterprises and workers were: occupational health technicians>radioactive factor sampling and testing equipment >physical factor sampling and testing equipment >chemical factor sampling and testing equipment, and chemical factor sampling and testing equipment>physical factor sampling and testing equipment >radioactive factor sampling and testing equipment >occupational health technicians, respectively. Theil index of occupational health technology service resources suggested that differences in regions were the main unfair reason effected the allocation of occupational health technicians and radioactive factor sampling and testing equipment, while the differences between regions were the main unfair reason effected the allocation of chemical and physical factor sampling and testing equipment. Conclusion: The allocation equality in occupational health technology service resources of Gansu Provincial disease control and prevention institutions was not enough, and the differences in regions and between regions should be considered. This study suggests that it is necessary to introduce more occupational health technicians. The allocation of occupational health technology service resources should match with the number of local enterprises and the types of potential hazard factors of enterprises as far as possible.

Abstract
Recently, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were found to be linked to various diseases. The current study's objective was to explore whether or not there was a relation between PAH exposure and poor sleep pattern. We evaluated nine urine PAH metabolites as exposures in our cross-sectional research based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2005 to 2010. Logistic regression, restricted cubic spline regression (RCS) model, weighted quantile sum (WQS) regression, subgroup analysis, and mediation analysis were used to assess the associations between PAH metabolism and poor sleep pattern risk. After controlling for all confounding variables, several primary PAH metabolites, namely 1-hydroxynapthalene (1-NAP, OR 1.32, 95% CI 1.04-1.68), 2-hydroxyfluorene (2-FLU, OR 1.34, 95% CI 1.05-1.71), 1-hydroxyphenanthrene (1-PHE, OR 1.30, 95% CI 1.03-1.64), 9-hydroxyfluorene (9-FLU, OR 1.38, 95% CI 1.09-1.74), and ∑PAHs (OR 1.33, 95% CI 1.05-1.69), compared to the bottom tertile, were associated with increased risk of poor sleep pattern. The WQS regression analysis showed that 9-FLU and 1-NAP comprised the two most important factors related to poor sleep pattern. Mediation analysis revealed that inflammation acted as a mediator between PAHs and the prevalence of poor sleep pattern. In conclusion, exposure to PAHs may be associated with poor sleep pattern. Inflammation is a mediator of the effects of PAH exposure on poor sleep pattern.

Abstract
Background and Aims The results of basic research implicate the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family as a potential target of hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS). However, the negative results of anti-angiogenetic therapy in clinical studies have highlighted the need for markers for HPS. Therefore, we aimed to determine whether VEGF family members and their receptors can be potential biomarkers for HPS through clinical and experimental studies. Methods Clinically, patients with chronic liver disease from two medical centers were enrolled and examined for HPS. Patients were divided into HPS, intrapulmonary vascular dilation [positive contrast-enhanced echocardiography (CEE) and normal oxygenation] and CEE-negative groups. Baseline information and perioperative clinical data were compared between HPS and non-HPS patients. Serum levels of VEGF family members and their receptors were measured. In parallel, HPS rats were established by common bile duct ligation. Liver, lung and serum samples were collected for the evaluation of pathophysiologic changes, as well as the expression levels of the above factors. Results In HPS rats, all VEGF family members and their receptors underwent significant changes; however, only soluble VEGFR1 (sFlt-1) and the sFlt-1/ placental growth factor (PLGF) ratio were changed in almost the same manner as those in HPS patients. Furthermore, through feature selection and internal and external validation, sFlt-1 and the sFlt-1/PLGF ratio were identified as the most important variables to distinguish HPS from non-HPS patients. Conclusions Our results from animal and human studies indicate that sFlt-1 and the sFlt-1/PLGF ratio in serum are potential markers for HPS.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the influencing factors of AIDS-related deaths among HIV-infected patients in Shandong Province, to help reduce the risk of death and prolong survival time. Methods: The study population was HIV-infected patients in Shandong Province from 2017-2021, and Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of AIDS-related deaths and deaths within one year of confirmation. Results: Among 14 700 HIV- infected patients reported in Shandong Province in 2017-2021, 351 AIDS-related deaths occurred, accounting for 2.4% (351/14 700). The results of multifactorial Cox proportional hazards regression model analysis showed that the risk factors for AIDS-related deaths among HIV-infected patients included education level of junior high school, high school, and secondary school (aHR=1.37, 95%CI:1.01-1.84), sample source from healthcare institutions (aHR=1.61, 95%CI:1.22-2.12), duration of disease in AIDS stage (aHR=9.86,95%CI:6.86-14.19), baseline CD4+T lymphocytes (CD4) undetected (aHR=3.93, 95%CI:2.69-5.75), duration of antiviral treatment (ART) <6 months (aHR=3.46, 95%CI:2.42-4.93) and no ART (aHR=1.45, 95%CI:1.02-2.07), final CD4 <200 cells/μl (aHR=3.51, 95%CI:2.18-5.65) and final CD4 undetected (aHR=10.58, 95%CI:6.15-18.19), and final viral load (VL) values of 50-999 copies/ml,≥1 000 copies/ml and undetected (aHR=2.59, 95%CI:1.07-6.26; aHR=9.50, 95%CI:5.60-16.12; aHR=15.33, 95%CI:8.91-26.36). Factors with higher risk of AIDS-related deaths within one year of confirmation of HIV-infected patients included samples originating from healthcare facilities (aHR=1.68, 95%CI: 1.19-2.36), AIDS stage of disease (aHR=10.60, 95%CI:7.13-15.75), baseline CD4 undetected (aHR=3.71, 95%CI:2.34-5.90), duration of ART <6 months (aHR=4.30, 95%CI:2.85-6.49) and no ART (aHR=2.05, 95%CI:1.35-3.13), final CD4 <200 cells/μl (aHR=5.45,95%CI:2.04-14.60) and final CD4 undetected (aHR=20.95, 95%CI: 7.69- 57.04), and final VL values of 50-999 copies/ml, ≥1 000 copies/ml and undetected (aHR=15.21, 95%CI: 2.54-91.21; aHR=42.93, 95%CI:9.64-191.20; aHR=61.35, 95%CI:13.85-271.77). Conclusions: Expanding the coverage of testing, promoting early detection and treatment, strengthening regular follow-up and the test of HIV-infected patients, grasping the progress of the disease to provide accurate management and treatment are important for reducing the disease mortality rate and prolonging the survival time of HIV-infected patients.

Abstract
A retrospective case series was used to evaluate the effect of plasmatrix bone blocks on bone augmentation at the level of the alveolar ridge. From January 2021 to April 2022, a total of 25 patients who underwent horizontal alveolar ridge level bone augmentation in the Department of Implantology, Wuhan Dazhong Stomatological Hospital were included. Autologous bone chips, deproteinized bovine bone matrix and plasma matrix were used to make plasma matrix bone blocks, combined with absorbable collagen membrane and plasma matrix membrane for guided bone regeneration. Three-dimensional reconstruction was performed on the cone beam CT data before operation and 6 months after operation, and the bone width and alveolar bone volume at 2 and 8 mm from the alveolar crest were measured. The paired t test was used to compare the differences between two time points of the same measurement item. The results showed that compared with preoperative [(5.5±3.4) mm] bone width, the bone width [(9.5±2.5) mm] at 2 mm from the alveolar crest was significantly increased at 6 months after operation (t=3.40, P˂0.001); there was no significant difference in the bone width at the level of 8 mm from the alveolar crest between pre-and 6 months post-operation (t=3.13, P=0.050). The volumes of alveolar bone at 2 and 8 mm from the alveolar crest were (5 114±3 883) and (3 329±2 874) mm3 before operation, respectively, and these increased significantly to (5 999±4 318) and (4 042±3 260) mm3 (t=5.69, P˂0.001; t=5.689, P˂0.001) 6 month post-operation. The results from this study has shown that the use of plasmatrix bone blocks+absorbable collagen membrane+plasma matrix membrane for horizontal bone augmentation in guided bone regeneration has a promising bone augmentation outcome.

Abstract
Thromboembolism is a crucial part of the global disease burden. It has high incidence, high mortality and disability rates, and the mechanism of occurrence and development is extremely complex. It is difficult to detect the disease in the early stage so that we have trouble with clinical prevention and treatment in general. At present, four items of blood coagulation and D-dimer have been widely used in the evaluation and auxiliary diagnosis of thromboembolism, the monitoring of effect for antithrombotic drugs and other fields. The thrombus biomarkers including thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT), thrombomodulin (TM), tissue plasminogen activator-inhibitor complex (t-PAIC) and α2-plasmin inhibitor-plasmin complex (PIC) fill the gap of laboratory diagnosis before clinical symptoms appear in some degree. This article aims to explain the current application status of TAT, TM, t-PAIC and PIC in thromboembolism and explore their potential application value, so as to provide a reference for selecting appropriate early monitoring indicators for high-risk population of thromboembolism.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the differences in the prevalence of mild micro-hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) among patients with cirrhosis by using the psychometric hepatic encephalopathy score (PHES) and the Stroop smartphone application (Encephal App) test. Methods: This prospective, multi-center, real-world study was initiated by the National Clinical Medical Research Center for Infectious Diseases and the Portal Hypertension Alliance and registered with International ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05140837). 354 cases of cirrhosis were enrolled in 19 hospitals across the country. PHES (including digital connection tests A and B, digital symbol tests, trajectory drawing tests, and serial management tests) and the Stroop test were conducted in all of them. PHES was differentiated using standard diagnostic criteria established by the two studies in China and South Korea. The Stroop test was evaluated based on the criteria of the research and development team. The impact of different diagnostic standards or methods on the incidence of MHE in patients with cirrhosis was analyzed. Data between groups were differentiated using the t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, and χ (2) test. A kappa test was used to compare the consistency between groups. Results: After PHES, the prevalence of MHE among 354 cases of cirrhosis was 78.53% and 15.25%, respectively, based on Chinese research standards and Korean research normal value standards. However, the prevalence of MHE was 56.78% based on the Stroop test, and the differences in pairwise comparisons among the three groups were statistically significant (kappa = -0.064, P < 0.001). Stratified analysis revealed that the MHE prevalence in three groups of patients with Child-Pugh classes A, B, and C was 74.14%, 83.33%, and 88.24%, respectively, according to the normal value standards of Chinese researchers, while the MHE prevalence rates in three groups of patients with Child-Pugh classes A, B, and C were 8.29%, 23.53%, and 38.24%, respectively, according to the normal value standards of Korean researchers. Furthermore, the prevalence rates of MHE in the three groups of patients with Child-Pugh grades A, B, and C were 52.68%, 58.82%, and 73.53%, respectively, according to the Stroop test standard. However, among the results of each diagnostic standard, the prevalence of MHE showed an increasing trend with an increasing Child-Pugh grade. Further comparison demonstrated that the scores obtained by the number connection test A and the number symbol test were consistent according to the normal value standards of the two studies in China and South Korea (Z = -0.982, -1.702; P = 0.326, 0.089), while the other three sub-tests had significant differences (P < 0.001). Conclusion: The prevalence rate of MHE in the cirrhotic population is high, but the prevalence of MHE obtained by using different diagnostic criteria or methods varies greatly. Therefore, in line with the current changes in demographics and disease spectrum, it is necessary to enroll a larger sample size of a healthy population as a control. Moreover, the establishment of more reliable diagnostic scoring criteria will serve as a basis for obtaining accurate MHE incidence and formulating diagnosis and treatment strategies in cirrhotic populations.

Abstract
Objective: To study the influence of steroid withdrawal protection strategy on height growth in pediatric patients after kidney transplantation. Methods: The prospective cohort study enrolled 40 stage 5 chronic kidney disease children receiving kidney transplantation from July 2017 to September 2022 at Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center. Based on the primary preoperative disease, patients with immune abnormality-associated glomerular diseases or unknown causes were assigned to the steroid maintenance group, in which patients received steroid tapering within 3 months after surgery to a maintenance dose of 2.5 to 5.0 mg/d. While patients with hereditary kidney disease or congenital urinary malformations were assigned to the steroid withdrawal group, in which patients had steroids tapered off within 3 months. The characteristics of height catch-up growth and clinical data were compared between the 2 groups at baseline, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months after kidney transplantation. T-test, repeated measurement of variance analysis, Mann-Whitney U test, and Fisher exact test were used for the comparison between the 2 groups. Results: Among the 40 children, 17 were males, 23 were females, 25 were in the steroid withdraw group ((7.8±2.8) years old when receiving kidney transplantation) and 15 cases were in the steroid maintenance group ((7.6±3.5) years old when receiving kidney transplantation). The study population was followed up for (26±12) months. The total dose per unit body weight of steroids in the steroid withdrawal group was lower than that in the steroid maintenance group ((0.13±0.06) vs. (0.36±0.19) mg/(kg·d), t=5.83, P<0.001). The height catch-up rate (ΔHtSDS) in the first year after kidney transplantation in the steroid withdraw and steroid maintenance groups was 1.0 (0.7, 1.4) and 0.4 (0.1, 1.0), respectively; in the second year, the ΔHtSDS in the steroid withdraw group was significantly higher than that in the steroid maintenance group (1.1 (0.2, 1.7) vs. 0.3 (0, 0.8), U=28.00, P=0.039). The HtSDS in the steroid withdrawal group at the five follow-up time points was -2.5±0.8, -2.0±0.8, -1.5±0.8, -1.3±0.9 and -0.5±0.3, respectively, while in the steroid maintenance was -2.4±1.3, -2.2±1.1, -2.0±1.0, -1.8±1.0 and -1.6±1.0, respectively. There were statistically significant differences in HtSDS at different follow-up time points in both 2 groups (F=19.81, P<0.01), but no statistical differences in overall impact between the 2 groups (F=1.13, P=0.204). The steroid treatment was interaction with the increase of follow-up time (F=3.62, P=0.009). At the 24th month after transplantation, the HtSDS in the steroid withdrawal group was significantly higher than that in the steroid maintenance group (P=0.047). Six patients in the steroid withdrawal group experienced antibody-mediated immune rejection (AMR), while 3 did in the steroid maintenance group. Moreover, there was no significant difference in AMR between the two groups (χ2=0.06, P=0.814). Conclusion: The steroid withdrawal protection strategy favors the height catch-up growth in pediatric patients after kidney transplantation and does not increase the risk of postoperative antibody-mediated immune rejection.

Abstract
Malaria, one of the major global public health events, is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity among children and adults in tropical and subtropical regions(mainly in sub-Saharan Africa), threatening human health. It is well known that malaria can cause various complications including anemia, blackwater fever, cerebral malaria, and kidney damage. Conventionally, cardiac involvement has not been listed as a common reason affecting morbidity and mortality of malaria, which may be related to ignored cases or insufficient diagnosis. However, the serious clinical consequences such as acute coronary syndrome, heart failure, and malignant arrhythmia caused by malaria have aroused great concern. At present, antimalarials are commonly used for treating malaria in clinical practice. However, inappropriate medication can increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases and cause severe consequences. This review summarized the research advances in the cardiovascular complications including acute myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, hypertension, heart failure, and myocarditis in malaria. The possible mechanisms of cardiovascular diseases caused by malaria were systematically expounded from the hypotheses of cell adhesion, inflammation and cytokines, myocardial apoptosis induced by plasmodium toxin, cardiac injury secondary to acute renal failure, and thrombosis. Furthermore, the effects of quinolines, nucleoprotein synthesis inhibitors, and artemisinin and its derivatives on cardiac structure and function were summarized. Compared with the cardiac toxicity of quinolines in antimalarial therapy, the adverse effects of artemisinin-derived drugs on heart have not been reported in clinical studies. More importantly, the artemisinin-derived drugs demonstrate favorable application prospects in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, and are expected to play a role in the treatment of malaria patients with cardiovascular diseases. This review provides reference for the prevention and treatment of malaria-related cardiovascular complications as well as the safe application of antimalarials.

Abstract
Objective: To systematically integrate and analyze the breast cancer screening rates among females in China and to estimate the composition of different screening service types. Methods: Based on core literature, relevant official websites, projects/survey reports, and information on breast cancer screening rates of Chinese females were extracted and analyzed, and the screening rates for 40-69 years old and 35-64 years old were standardized and compared using 2010 China's population structure. The literature review method was used to retrieve the journal literature related to the composition of breast cancer screening services types (organized screening, physical examination and opportunistic screening). The number of detected literature and the median sample size of individual screening people of the three screening service types were analyzed, and used them as weights to estimate the composition of screening service types. Results: A total of 6 related national surveys on breast cancer screening rate were identified, including 2 from the National Health Service Surveys (broader definition of "breast screening" in 2013, 2018) and 4 from the chronic disease monitoring system of China CDC (the exact definition of "breast cancer screening" in 2010, 2013 and twice in 2015). The age-standardized analysis indicated that 1-year, 2-year and 3-year breast cancer screening rates in 2015 among females in China aged 40-69 years old were 16.9%, 20.2% and 21.4%, respectively. The ever-breast cancer-screened rates were 21.1% in 2013 and 23.5% in 2015 among females aged 40-69, and the corresponding rates were 23.3% and 25.7%, respectively, among females aged 35-64. When taking the literature published in 2015 for further literature review, 130 articles were included, in which the proportions of numbers of reports on organized screening, physical examination, and opportunistic screening were 71.0%, 23.7%, and 5.3%, respectively. Along with the extracted data on median sample sizes (shown in the main text) by breast cancer screening types, it was estimated that the individual service volume of corresponding screening types accounted for 88.0%, 11.2% and 0.8% among all the screened females in China in 2015. Conclusions: The breast cancer screening rates among females of appropriate age in China in 2015 are higher than those in 2013. The literature review analysis preliminarily suggested that the current breast cancer screening service type in China is mainly organized screening service.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features, immunophenotype, and genetic alterations of rectal adenocarcinoma with enteroblastic differentiation. Methods: Four cases of rectal adenocarcinoma with enteroblastic differentiation were collected at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University, Qingdao, China (three cases) and Yantai Yeda Hospital of Shandong Province, China (one case) from January to December 2022. Their clinical features were summarized. Hematoxylin and eosin stain and immunohistochemical stain were performed, while next-generation sequencing was performed to reveal the genetic alterations of these cases. Results: All four patients were male with a median age of 65.5 years. The clinical manifestations were changes of stool characteristics, bloody stools and weight loss. All cases showed mixed morphology composed of conventional adenocarcinoma and adenocarcinoma with enteroblastic differentiation. Most of the tumors consisted of glands with tubular and cribriform features. In one case, almost all tumor cells were arranged in papillary structures. The tumor cells with enteroblastic differentiation were columnar, with relatively distinct cell boundaries and characteristic abundant clear cytoplasm, forming fetal gut-like glands. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for SALL4 (4/4), Glypican-3 (3/4) and AFP (1/4, focally positive), while p53 stain showed mutated type in 2 cases. The next-generation sequencing revealed that 2 cases had TP53 gene mutation and 1 case had KRAS gene mutation. Conclusions: Rectal adenocarcinoma with enteroblastic differentiation is rare. It shows embryonal differentiation in morphology and immunohistochemistry, and should be distinguished from conventional colorectal adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
Objective: To summarize the correlation between anterior pituitary function and tumor size in patients with different hormone-secreting pituitary adenomas. Methods: This was a retrospective case series study. The clinical data of 1 946 patients with pituitary adenoma hospitalized in the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 1, 2005, to December 31, 2020, were collected. The correlation between tumor size and anterior pituitary hormone levels was analyzed using Spearman rank correlation analysis in different types of pituitary adenomas. Results: The median age of the 1 946 patients was 45.1 years, of which 857 (44.0%) were men. The maximum tumor diameter of the patients [M (Q1, Q3)] was 22 (14, 30) mm. Tumor size in nonfunctioning adenomas (n=1 191) was negatively correlated with adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) (r=-0.11, P<0.001), growth hormone (r=-0.13, P<0.001), and luteinizing hormone (men: r=-0.26, P<0.001, women: r=-0.31, all P<0.001). The tumor size of somatotropic adenomas (n=297) was positively correlated with growth hormone (r=0.46, P<0.001), but negatively correlated with male testosterone (r=-0.41, P<0.001). The tumor size of ACTH-secreting pituitary adenomas (n=155) was positively correlated with the ACTH level at 8∶00 AM (r=0.25, P<0.001); however, no correlation was found with cortisol at 8∶00 AM (P>0.05). The tumor size of prolactinomas (n=303) was positively correlated with the prolactin level (men: r=0.34, P=0.001; women: r=0.13, P=0.070). Conclusions: The correlation between the function of the anterior pituitary and size of the tumor depends on the cellular origin of the pituitary adenoma and specific type of hormone secretion. In somatotroph adenomas, ACTH-secreting pituitary adenomas, and prolactinomas, there is a positive correlation between tumor size and level of hormones secreted by the corresponding tumors. In patients with nonfunctioning adenomas, the tumor size was negatively correlated with the hormone levels of the pituitary-adrenal and pituitary-growth hormone axes.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the long-term clinical efficacy of transcatheter repair of mitral paravalvular leak (PVL) post surgical mitral valve replacement. Methods: This study is a retrospective study. Patients who completed transcatheter repair of paravalvular leak after surgical mitral valve replacement at Shanghai Chest Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from March 2010 to December 2018 were included. Technical success was defined as the occluder being stably implanted in the paravalvular leak site without affecting the function of the mitral valve and surrounding tissues; and there were no intervention-related complications, such as new hemolysis or aggravated hemolysis, and echocardiography confirmed mitral paravalvular regurgitation reduced by more than 1 grade. Patients were followed up at 30 days, 1, and 3 years after the intervention. The main endpoints were all-cause death and re-surgery due to interventional failure or serious complications. The occurrence of occluder-mediated hemolysis and chronic renal insufficiency was recorded, and patients were monitored with echocardiography during follow up. Results: A total of 75 patients were included, aged (54.3±22.9) years old, and 38 patients were males. All patients had decreased cardiac function and/or hemolysis before intervention. Procedural success was achieved in 54 patients (72.0%). Incidence of device-mediated hemolysis was 18.7% (14/75). During the follow-up period, all-cause death occurred in 7 patients (9.3%), and 3 were cardiac deaths.The 3-year event-free survival rate was 81.3% (61/75). The need for cardiac surgery was 9.3% (7/75): 3 cases due to severe device-mediated hemolysis, 2 cases due to prosthetic valve failure and 2 cases due to moderate to severe residual regurgitation. The echocardiography follow-up results showed that the position of the occluder was stable, there was no impact on the artificial valve function and surrounding structures, and the residual regurgitation was stable without progressive increase in event-free patients. Compared with pre-intervention, the left ventricular end systolic diameter ((33.9±7.4)mm vs. (38.3±8.9) mm, P=0.036), end diastolic diameter ((53.7±8.3) mm vs. (58.4±9.1) mm, P=0.045) and left atrial diameter (59.3 (44.5, 90.7) mm vs. 64.3 (44.8, 96.6) mm, P=0.049) were significantly reduced, pulmonary artery systolic pressure was also significantly decreased ((36.5±15.8) mmHg vs. (46.3±14.9) mmHg, P=0.022, 1 mmHg=0.133 kPa). There was no significant difference between 3 years and 1 year after transcatheter repair of mitral paravalvular leak post surgical mitral valve replacement (all P>0.05). Conclusion: Transcatheter repair of mitral paravalvular leak post surgical mitral valve replacement is an effective treatment option in selective patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a malignant tumor with high heterogeneity and poor prognosis. In this study, we sought to identify the value of platelet-related genes in prognosis and heterogeneity of PDAC through multiple transcriptomic methods. METHODS Based on datasets from Gene Expression Omnibus and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), platelet-related genes were screened out, and the TCGA cohort (n = 171) was identified into two subtypes by unsupervised clustering. The platelet-related risk score model (PLRScore) was constructed by univariate Cox and LASSO regression, and the predictive ability was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier test and time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. The results were validated in two other external validation sets, ICGC-CA (n = 140) and GSE62452 (n = 66). Furthermore, predictive nomogram containing clinical characteristics and PLRScore was established. In addition, we determined the possible correlation between PLRScore and immune infiltration and response of immunotherapy. Finally, we analyzed the heterogeneity of our signature in various types of cells using single-cell analysis. RESULTS Platelet-related subtypes that have significant difference of overall survival and immune states (p < 0.05) were identified. PLRScore model based on four-gene signature (CEP55, LAMA3, CA12, SCN8A) was constructed to predict patient prognosis. The AUCs of training cohort were 0.697, 0.687 and 0.675 for 1-, 3-and 5-year, respectively. Further evaluation of the validation cohorts yielded similar results. In addition, PLRScore was associated with immune cell infiltration and immune checkpoint expression, and had promising ability to predict response to immunotherapy of PDAC. CONCLUSIONS In this study, the platelet-related subtypes were identified and the four-gene signature was constructed and validated. It may provide new insights into the therapeutic decision-making and molecular targets of PDAC.

Abstract
Measurement bias (MB) has been described in causal structures but is still not entirely clear. In practice, the correctness of substitution estimate (SE) of effect is a prerequisite for causal inference, usually based on a bidirectionally non-differential misclassification between the measured exposure and the measured outcome. Based on a directed acyclic graph (DAG), this paper proposes a structure for the single-variable measure, where its MB is derived from the choice of an imperfect, "input/output device-like" measurement system. The MB of the SE is influenced both by the measurement system itself and by factors outside the measurement system: while the independence or dependence mechanism of the measurement system still ensures that the MB of the SE is bidirectionally non-differential; however, the misclassification can be bidirectionally non-differential, unidirectionally differential, or bidirectionally differential resulted from the factors outside the measurement system. In addition, reverse causality should be defined at the level of measurement, where measured exposures can influence measured outcomes and vice versa. Combined with temporal relationships, DAGs help elucidate MB's structures, mechanisms, and directionality.

Abstract
Shenlian (SL) extract has been proven to be effective in the prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis and myocardial ischemia. However, the function and molecular mechanisms of SL on coronary artery no-reflow have not been fully elucidated. This study was designed to investigate the contribution of SL extract in repressing excessive mitochondrial autophagy to protect the mitochondrial function and prevent coronary artery no-reflow. The improvement of SL on coronary artery no-reflow was observed in vivo experiments and the molecular mechanisms were further explored through vitro experiments. First, a coronary artery no-reflow rat model was built by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery for 2 hr of ischemia, followed by 24 hr of reperfusion. Thioflavin S (6%, 1 ml/kg) was injected into the inferior vena cava to mark the no-reflow area. Transmission electron microscopy was performed to observe the cellular structure, mitochondrial structure, and mitochondrial autophagy of the endothelial cells. Immunofluorescence was used to observe the microvascular barrier function and microvascular inflammation. Cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (CMECs) were isolated from rats. The CMECs were deprived of oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) for 2 hr and reoxygenated for 4 hr to mimic the Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury-induced coronary artery no-reflow in vitro. Mitochondrial membrane potential was assessed using JC-1 dye. Intracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels were determined using an ATP assay kit. The cell total reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and cell apoptosis rate were analyzed by flow cytometry. Colocalization of mitochondria and lysosomes indirectly indicated mitophagy. The representative ultrastructural morphologies of the autophagosomes and autolysosomes were also observed under transmission electron microscopy. The mitochondrial autophagy-related proteins (LC3II/I, P62, PINK, and Parkin) were analyzed using Western blot analysis. In vivo, results showed that, compared with the model group, SL could reduce the no-reflow area from 37.04 ± 9.67% to 18.31 ± 4.01% (1.08 g·kg-1 SL), 13.79 ± 4.77% (2.16 g·kg-1 SL), and 12.67 ± 2.47% (4.32 g·kg-1 SL). The extract also significantly increased the left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) and left ventricular fractional shortening (FS) (p < 0.05 or p < 0.01). The fluorescence intensities of VE-cadherin, which is a junctional protein that preserves the microvascular barrier function, decreased to ~74.05% of the baseline levels in the no-reflow rats and increased to 89.87%(1.08 g·kg-1 SL), 82.23% (2.16 g·kg-1 SL), and 89.69% (4.32 g·kg-1 SL) of the baseline levels by SL treatment. SL administration repressed the neutrophil migration into the myocardium. The oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) model was induced in vitro to mimic microvascular ischemia-reperfusion injury. The impaired mitochondrial function after OGD/R injury led to decreased ATP production, calcium overload, the excessive opening of the Mitochondrial Permeability Transition Pore, decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, and reduced ROS scavenging ability (p < 0.05 or p < 0.01). The normal autophagosomes (double-membrane vacuoles with autophagic content) in the sham group were rarely found. The large morphology and autophagosomes were frequently observed in the model group. By contrast, SL inhibited the excessive activation of mitochondrial autophagy. The mitochondrial autophagy regulated by the PINK/Parkin pathway was excessively activated. However, administration of SL prevented the activation of the PINK/Parkin pathway and inhibited excessive mitochondrial autophagy to regulate mitochondrial dysfunction. Results also demonstrated that mitochondrial dysfunction stimulated endothelial cell barrier dysfunction, but Evans blue transmission was significantly decreased and transmembrane resistance was increased significantly by SL treatment (p < 0.05 or p < 0.01). Carbonylcyanide-3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) could activate the PINK/Parkin pathway. CCCP reversed the regulation of SL on mitochondrial autophagy and mitochondrial function. SL could alleviate coronary artery no-reflow by protecting the microvasculature by regulating mitochondrial function. The underlying mechanism was related to decreased mitochondrial autophagy by the PINK/Parkin pathway.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the effects of intravitreal slow-release dexamethasone on traumatic proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) and Müller cell gliosis and preliminarily explored the possible inflammatory mechanism in a rabbit model induced by penetrating ocular trauma. METHODS Traumatic PVR was induced in the right eyes of pigmented rabbits by performing an 8-mm circumferential scleral incision placed 2.5 mm behind the limbus, followed by treatment with a slow-release dexamethasone implant (Ozurdex) or sham injection. Left eyes were used as normal controls. The intraocular pressure (IOP) was monitored using an iCare tonometer. PVR severity was evaluated via anatomical and histopathological examinations every week for 6wk; specific inflammatory cytokine and proliferative marker levels were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, Western blot, protein chip analysis, or immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS During the observation period, PVR severity gradually increased. Intense Müller cell gliosis was observed in the peripheral retina near the wound and in the whole retina of PVR group. Ozurdex significantly alleviated PVR development and Müller cell gliosis. Post-traumatic inflammation fluctuated and was persistent. The interleukin-1β (IL-1β) mRNA level was significantly upregulated, peaking on day 3 and increasing again on day 21 after injury. The expression of nod-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) showed a similar trend that began earlier than that of IL-1β expression. Ozurdex suppressed the expression of IL-1β, NLRP3, and phosphorylated nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB). The average IOP after treatment was within normal limits. CONCLUSION The present study demonstrates chronic and fluctuating inflammation in a traumatic PVR rabbit model over 6wk. Ozurdex treatment significantly inhibites inflammatory cytokines expression and Müller cell gliosis, and thus alleviates PVR severity. This study highlights the important role of IL-1β, and Ozurdex inhibites inflammation presumably via the NF-κB/NLRP3/IL-1β inflammatory axis. In summary, Ozurdex provides a potential therapeutic option for traumatic PVR.

Abstract
Ring-opening transformations of donor-acceptor (D-A) cyclopropanes enable the rapid assembly of complex molecules. However, the enantioselective formation of chiral quaternary stereocenters using substrates bearing two different acceptors remains a challenge. Herein, we describe the first palladium-catalyzed highly diastereo- and enantioselective (3+2) cycloaddition of vinyl cyclopropanes bearing two different electron-withdrawing groups, a subset of D-A cyclopropanes. The key to the success of this reaction is the remote stereoinduction through hydrogen bond from chiral ligands, which thereby addressed the aforementioned challenge. A variety of chiral five-membered heterocycles were produced in good yields and with high stereoselectivity (up to 99 % yields, 99 : 1 er and >19 : 1 dr). In-depth mechanistic investigations, including control experiments and theoretical calculations, revealed the origin of the stereoselectivity and the importance of H-bonding in stereocontrol.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a highly lethal malignancy that requires effective novel therapies. M2 macrophages are abundant in the PC microenvironment and promote cancer progression. Exosomes are emerging mediators of the crosstalk between cancer cells and the microenvironment. This study was conducted to explore the role of M2 macrophage-derived exosomes in PC. METHODS Exosomes derived from M2 macrophages were extracted. miR-193b-3p and TRIM62 were overexpressed or silenced to examine their function in PC. Luminescence assays were used to investigate the interaction between miR-193b-3p and TRIM62. Cell proliferation was examined by EdU staining. Would healing and transwell assays were applied to evaluate cell migration and invasion. Co-immunoprecipitation was used to assess the interaction between TRIM62 and c-Myc. Gene and protein expressions were analyzed by quantitative RT-PCR and immunoblotting, respectively. RESULTS M2 macrophage-derived exosomal miR-193b-3p promoted the proliferation, migration, invasion, and glutamine uptake of SW1990 cells. Mechanism study revealed that TRIM62 is a target of miR-193b-3p. TRIM62 inhibited the proliferation, migration, invasion, and glutamine uptake of SW1990 cells by promoting c-Myc ubiquitination. Our data also suggested that TRIM62 expression negatively correlated with miR-193b-3p and c-Myc expression. High-expression of miR-193b-3p and c-Myc predicts poor prognosis, whereas low-expression of TRIM62 predicts poor prognosis in patients with PC. CONCLUSION M2 macrophage-derived exosomal miR-193b-3p enhances the proliferation, migration, invasion, and glutamine uptake of PC cells by targeting TRIM62, resulting in the decrease of c-Myc ubiquitination. This study not only reveals the mechanism underlying the crosstalk between M2 macrophages and PC cells but also suggests a promising therapeutic target for PC.

Abstract
Multiple sclerosis(MS) shows the pathological characteristics of "inflammatory injury of white matter" and "myelin repair disability" in the central nervous system(CNS). It is very essential for MS treatment and reduction of disease burden to strengthen repair, improve function, and reduce disability. Accordingly, different from the simple immunosuppression, we believe that key to strengthening remyelination and maintaining the "damage-repair" homeostasis of tissue is to change the current one-way immunosuppression strategy and achieve the "moderate pro-inflammation-effective inflammation removal" homeostasis. Traditional Chinese medicine shows huge potential in this strategy. Through literature research, this study summarized the research on remyelination, discussed the "mode-rate pro-inflammation-effective inflammation removal" homeostasis and the "damage-repair" homeostasis based on microglia, and summed up the key links in remyelination in MS. This review is expected to lay a theoretical basis for improving the function of MS patients and guide the application of traditional Chinese medicine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Excessive accumulation of adipose tissue may accelerate brain aging, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Several adiposity indices were proposed to assess obesity, while their linkage with brain health in older adults remained unclear. Here we aimed to examine the associations of adiposity indices with global and regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) in older adults, while considering insulin resistance. DESIGN This was a cross-sectional population-based study that included older adults derived from the baseline participants in the ongoing Multimodal Interventions to Delay Dementia and Disability in rural China (MIND-China) study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS The study included 103 Chinese rural-dwelling older adults (age≥60 years; 69.9% women) who underwent brain magnetic resonance imaging scans. METHODS We estimated eight adiposity indices based on anthropometric measures. We automatically quantified global and regional CBF using the arterial spin labeling scans. Insulin resistance was assessed using the triglyceride-glucose index and then dichotomized into high and low levels according to the median. Data were analyzed using general linear model and voxel-wise analysis. RESULTS Of the eight examined adiposity indices, only higher waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) and body roundness index (BRI) were associated with reduced global CBF (multivariable-adjusted β-coefficients and 95%CI: -1.76; -3.25, -0.27 and -1.77; -3.25, -0.30, respectively) and hypoperfusion in bilateral middle temporal gyri, angular gyri and superior temporal gyri, left middle cingulum and precuneus (P<0.05). There were statistical interactions of WHtR and BRI with levels of insulin resistance on CBF, such that the significant associations of higher WHtR and BRI with lower global and regional CBF existed only in people with high insulin resistance (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Higher WHtR and BRI are associated with cerebral hypoperfusion in older adults, especially in people with high insulin resistance. This may highlight the pathological role of visceral fat in vascular brain aging.

Abstract
The organocatalytic enantioselective Michael addition of functionalized prochiral cyclic hemiacetals and nitroolefins has been developed under cooperative enamine and hydrogen bond catalysis. The obtained chiral hemiacetal intermediates could be used in the subsequent diastereocontrolled cyclization/desymmetrization divergent process to access (1) 9-oxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane or 8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane frameworks via oxocarbenium ion-mediated Friedel-Crafts cyclization, and (2) 2,9-dioxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane frameworks via intramolecular nucleophilic cyclization. Experimental results suggest that there is neighboring group participation controlling the diastereoselectivities of the desymmetrization process.

Abstract
As a classic prescription, Wuji Pills is composed of Coptidis Rhizoma, Euodiae Fructus Preparata, and stir-fried Paeo-niae Radix Alba at the ratio of 6∶1∶6. The practical application of it is limited compared with other famous Chinese medicine prescriptions. Only one company produces Wuji Pills in China. In this study, ultra-performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS) was used to analyze and identify 26 identical compounds from Wuji Pills and drug-containing plasma of rats. Based on these components, 46 potential targets were screened out with network pharmacology methods, followed by the component-target network construction, Gene Ontology(GO) term enrichment, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) pathway enrichment, and disease prediction. It was concluded that Wuji Pills acted on core targets such as PTGS2, PTSG1, NCOA2, HSP9 OAD1, and RXRA through magnoflorine, hydroxyevodiamine, daucosterol, and berberine and exerted pharmacodynamic effects through various pathways such as calcium ion signaling pathway, phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase-protein kinase B(PI3 K-Akt) signaling pathway, and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) signaling pathway. Thus, Wuji Pills has therapeutic potential for Alzheimer's disease, diabetes mellitus, myocardial ischemia, and other diseases in addition to the conventional disease(irritable bowel syndrome, IBS). The above research results can provide a reference for the comprehensive interpretation of the pharmacodynamic basis of Wuji Pills and the expansion of clinical application. At the same time, a lot of components in serum and the in vivo transformed and metabolized components of Wuji Pills have similar structure and relative molecular weight. In theory, these components may show additive effects and the competitive/antagonistic effects on the same target. According to the hypothesis of "additive effect of multiple components for a single target" in traditional Chinese medicine, multiple similar components may exert the additive effects on local targets. This study can partly prove the scientificity of this hypothesis and provide laboratory evidence.

Abstract
We present improved germanium-based constraints on sub-GeV dark matter via dark matter-electron (χ-e) scattering using the 205.4 kg·day dataset from the CDEX-10 experiment. Using a novel calculation technique, we attain predicted χ-e scattering spectra observable in high-purity germanium detectors. In the heavy mediator scenario, our results achieve 3 orders of magnitude of improvement for m_{χ} larger than 80 MeV/c^{2} compared to previous germanium-based χ-e results. We also present the most stringent χ-e cross-section limit to date among experiments using solid-state detectors for m_{χ} larger than 90 MeV/c^{2} with heavy mediators and m_{χ} larger than 100 MeV/c^{2} with electric dipole coupling. The result proves the feasibility and demonstrates the vast potential of a new χ-e detection method with high-purity germanium detectors in ultralow radioactive background.

Abstract
A search for exotic dark matter (DM) in the sub-GeV mass range has been conducted using 205 kg day data taken from a p-type point contact germanium detector of the CDEX-10 experiment at China's Jinping underground laboratory. New low-mass dark matter searching channels, neutral current fermionic DM absorption (χ+A→ν+A) and DM-nucleus 3→2 scattering (χ+χ+A→ϕ+A), have been analyzed with an energy threshold of 160 eVee. No significant signal was found; thus new limits on the DM-nucleon interaction cross section are set for both models at the sub-GeV DM mass region. A cross section limit for the fermionic DM absorption is set to be 2.5×10^{-46} cm^{2} (90% C.L.) at DM mass of 10 MeV/c^{2}. For the DM-nucleus 3→2 scattering scenario, limits are extended to DM mass of 5 and 14 MeV/c^{2} for the massless dark photon and bound DM final state, respectively.

Abstract
Objective: To study the effect of circ-WHSC1 on the growth, metastasis and radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells and its molecular mechanism. Methods: Cancerous tissues and adjacent tissues were collected from 23 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression levels of circ-WHSC1, miR-338-3p, and ELAVL1 mRNA. Western blot was used to detect the expression of ELAVL1 protein. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells 5-8F and SUNE1 were divided into si-NC group, si-circ-WHSC1 group, pCD5-ciR group, circ-WHSC1 group, anti-miR-NC group, anti-miR-338-3p group, miR-NC group, miR-338-3p group, si-circ-WHSC1+ anti-miR-NC group, si-circ-WHSC1+ anti-miR-338-3p group, miR-338-3p+ pcDNA group, miR-338-3p+ ELAVL1 group. Tetramethylazolium salt colorimetric method (MTT) was used to detect cell viability. Clone formation test was used to detect cell clone formation and cell radiosensitivity. Flow cytometry was used to detect cell apoptosis. Transwell was used to detect cell migration and invasion. Dual luciferase assay was used to detect the targeting relationship between circ-WHSC1 and miR-338-3p, miR-338-3p and ELAVL1. The SUNE1 cells stably transfected with sh-circ-WHSC1 were injected into nude mice and irradiated with radiation, and then the tumor volume and weight of mice were detected. Results: The expressions of circ-WHSC1 (1.57±0.94 vs 3.78±1.18, 1.00±0.10 vs 1.64±0.14/2.00±0.21/2.81±0.26/3.36±0.34) and ELAVL1 (1.28±0.74 vs 3.36±0.77, 1.00±0.08 vs 2.51±0.19/3.27±0.27) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and cells were increased, and the expression of miR-338-3p (3.13±0.96 vs 1.37±0.98, 1.00±0.08 vs 0.48±0.08/0.38±0.07) was decreased (P<0.05). After knockdown of circ-WHSC1, the activity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells was decreased [(100.00±8.00)% vs (51.33±8.62)%, (100.00±10.10)% vs (41.02±7.31)%], the number of clone-forming cells was decreased (101.00±8.54 vs 50.33±8.02, 114.00±14.10 vs 42.33±10.01), the rate of apoptosis was increased [(5.37±1.20)% vs (18.3±1.01)%, (6.5±1.18)% vs (22.43±1.40)%], and the numbers of migration (136.00±13.00 vs 72.33±9.50, 154.00±14.10 vs 62.67±11.50) and invasion (113.67±11.59 vs 60.67±9.07, 124.33±15.57 vs 50.33±9.01) were decreased; after different doses of radiation, the cell survival score was decreased (0.23±0.04 vs 0.06±0.01, 0.32±0.07 vs 0.05±0.02) (P<0.05). Circ-WHSC1 targeted and negatively regulated miR-338-3p. Inhibition of miR-338-3p affected the effect of knockdown of circ-WHSC1 on the proliferation, apoptosis, migration, invasion and radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells. MiR-338-3p targeted and negatively regulated ELAVL1; ELAVL1 overexpression affected the effects of miR-338-3p on the proliferation, apoptosis, migration, invasion and radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells. After the cells stably transfected with sh-circ-WHSC1 were injected into nude mice, the tumor volume [(884.67±95.63)mm(3) vs (487.33±76.51)mm(3)] and weight [(899.01±88.54)mg vs (558.67±75.04) mg] of the nude mice were reduced; after further irradiation, the tumor volume [(395.00±73.50)mm(3) vs 243.13±42.51)mm(3)] and weight[ (452.33±67.30)mg vs (211.09±57.51)mg] of the nude mice were reduced (P<0.05). Circ-WHSC1 regulated the expression of ELAVL1 by targeting miR-382. Conclusion: Knockdown of circ-WHSC1 can inhibit the growth and metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells by targeting miR-338-3p/ELAVL1 axis, and enhances the radiosensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the mechanism of nerve growth factor (NGF) in the skeletal muscle fiber remodeling in ischemic limbs during therapeutic angiogenesis. Methods: Eighteen female mice with SPF grade, 6 weeks old and 25-30 g weighed were randomly allocated to sham-operated group (n=6), blank control group (n=6) and NGF gene transfection group (n=6). The left hindlimb ischemia models were established by ligating the femoral artery in blank control group and NGF gene transfection group. Seven days after the operation, mice in the three groups were separately injected with normal saline, empty plasmids, and NGF plasmids. Gastrocnemius of left hindlimbs was harvested after the blood perfusion assessment of the ischemic limb on the 21st postoperative day. The gastrocnemius muscle specimens were stained with HE, CD31 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) immunohistochemistry staining, the mRNA expressions of myosin heavy chain-Ⅰ(MHC-Ⅰ), MHC-Ⅱa and MHC-Ⅱb were measured by real-time PCR, and the protein level of NGF and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors-β/δ (PPAR β/δ) were detected by Western blot. The expression of cytochrome C oxidase (COX), isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) were examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results: On the 21st day after operation, the blood perfusion of the ischemic limb in NGF gene transfection group was (195.70±9.99)PU, which was lower than that in sham-operated group (312.15±17.32)PU (P=0.001), while it was higher than that in blank control group (82.11±8.55)PU (P=0.001). The degree of muscle atrophy in the NGF gene transfection group was lower than that in the blank control group. The capillary density of NGF gene transfection group (0.34±0.05) was higher than that of sham-operated group (0.11±0.03) and blank control group (0.27±0.04) (P<0.05). The endothelial cell proliferation index in NGF gene transfection group (0.39±0.19) was significantly higher than that in sham-operated group (0.18±0.01) and blank control group (0.25±0.14) (P<0.05). The expression of NGF, PPAR β/δ, COX, IDH, ATP, and MHC-Ⅰ mRNA in NGF gene transfection group were significantly higher than those in sham-operated group and blank control group (P<0.05). Conclusions: NGF gene transfection can promote angiogenesis in the ischemic limbs of mice, increase the blood perfusion, and thus induce the remodeling of skeletal muscle fibers to type Ⅰ. This process may be related to NGF-induced PPAR β/δ expression and promote the cellular aerobic metabolism in skeletal muscle.

Abstract
Objective: To discuss the efficacy and safety of orthokeratology with increased compression factor (ICF) in myopia correction in children. Methods: It was a prospective cohort study. Data of the right eyes of myopic children who visited the First Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu Medical College for orthokeratology were collected continuously from May 2016 to Dec 2018. All children had low myopia (<3.00 D) or moderate myopia (≥3.00 D), and were grouped using random numbers in Excel to receive orthokeratology with ICF or conventional compression factor (CCF). The axial length (AL), spherical equivalent (SE), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), near visual acuity (NVA), Efron grade, corneal hysteresis (CH), corneal resistance factor (CRF), corneal-compensated intraocular pressure (IOPcc), tear film break-up time (BUT), higher-order aberrations (HOAs), accommodative amplitude (AA) and accommodative facility (AF) were compared between groups during the 1-year treatment period. The Chi-squared test was used to compare the categorical data, while the independent-sample t-test was performed to assess the measurement data. Results: After 1 year of treatment, there were no statistical differences in AL, SE, BCVA, NVA, Efron grade, CH, CRF, IOPcc, BUT, HOAs, AA and AF between the low myopia ICF group and the low myopia CCF group (all P>0.05). After 6 months of treatment, the AL increased by (0.05±0.03) mm in the moderate myopia ICF group and by (0.08±0.04) mm in the moderate myopia CCF group (t=-3.416, P=0.001). After 1 year of treatment, the AL increased by (0.12±0.04) mm in the moderate myopia ICF group and by, (0.16±0.05) mm in the moderate myopia CCF group (t=-4.017, P<0.001). The SE was (-0.16±0.40) D in the moderate myopia ICF group, significantly different from that in the moderate myopia CCF group [(-0.58±0.60) D; t=3.529, P=0.001]. There were also statistical differences in HOAs, spherical aberrations and AF (all P<0.05), but no statistical differences in BCVA, NVA, Efron grade, CH, CRF, IOPcc, BUT and AA between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions: Orthokeratology with ICF safely and effectively corrected myopia in children during the observation period. It could control the progression of moderate myopia more effectively than that of low myopia.

Abstract
Objective: To understand the characteristics and depressive status of men who have sex with men (MSM) who self-reported HIV infection through heterosexual transmission and to provide evidence for personalized management of HIV infected people. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was carried out in Shandong province from September to December in 2019. Male HIV patients aged ≥15 years who self-reported HIV infection through heterosexual transmission were selected to verify the route of infection by one-to-one interview in Ji'nan, Qingdao, Weifang and Linyi cities of Shangdong province. According to the 1∶1 ratio, local HIV patients with age difference ≤3 years who self-reported MSM were selected as controls. A questionnaire survey was conducted, including data on demographic characteristics, behavior status, CES-D and PSSS. The related factors of the depressive symptoms and characteristics were analyzed. Results: A total of 373 male HIV patients were interviewed, and 39.7%(148/373) were confirmed as MSM after reexamination. The interviewers were: aged (40.3±12.0) years old, 41.9% (62/148) married/cohabiting. 27.0% (40/148) had been tested before HIV diagnosis, 71.6% (106/148) had homosexual partners ≥2 and 55.4% (82/148) had depressive symptom. Multivariate analysis showed that the MSM without HIV testings before diagnosis, had homosexual partners ≥2 before diagnosis, had first homosexual behavior at the age >30 years old and with depressive symptoms were more likely to conceal the true infection route. The incidence of depression among MSM who self-reported HIV infection through heterosexual transmission was related to physical health status social support and occupational stability. Conclusions: Some male HIV persons self-reported as being heterosexually transmitted were really transmitted through homosexual behavior. There were high-risk behaviors such as multiple partners and intersex among this group, and with high incidence of depression. It is necessary to encourage the reexamination program during follow-up and target on psychological and behavioral interventions, continuously.
