BACKGROUND: Rs768705 (TMEM161B) is one of the identified single nucleotide polymorphisms related to major depressive disorder (MDD). Paranoid personality traits are independently associated with the risk of MDD. This study aimed to investigate the interaction effect between rs768705 (TMEM161B) and paranoid personality traits on the new-onset risk of MDD in Chinese freshmen.
METHODS: A longitudinal study was conducted among 7642 Chinese freshmen without lifetime MDD at baseline in 2018. 158 new-onset MDD cases were ascertained in 2019. DNA samples were extracted to detect the genotype of rs768705. The diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders-IV criteria were used to determine MDD and personality disorder traits. Multiplicative interaction was assessed by logistic regression models. Tomas Andersson's method for calculating biological interactions was used to estimate the additive interaction.
RESULTS: Rs768705(AG) (OR = 1.88, 95 % CI: 1.24-2.83) and paranoid personality traits (OR = 3.68, 95 % CI: 2.57-5.26) were significantly associated with the risk of MDD. The multiplicative interaction model with the product term of rs768705 and paranoid personality trait traits had a significant interaction effect (OR = 4.20, 95 % CI:1.62-10.91). There was also a significant additive interaction effect (RR = 7.08, 95 % CI:4.31-11.65) for the incidence of MDD. Seventy seven percent patients among new MDD cases were attributed to the additive interaction effect between rs768705 and paranoid personality traits.
CONCLUSIONS: Rs768705 (AG) may interact with paranoid personality traits to increase the incidence of MDD among Chinese college students. Schools and psychosocial health organizations should pay more attention to individuals with paranoid personality traits for MDD intervention and prevention.
PURPOSE:To provide a cosmetic which promotes the metabolism of cells by the activity of radon contained therein and exhibits excellent effect of an alkaline cosmetic even after elapsing the half-life period of radon, by mixing and emulsifying minke oil, abyssal shark oil and olive oil to an aqueous solution of radon. CONSTITUTION:Minke oil, abyssal shark oil, and olive oil are mixed with an aqueous solution of radon, and emulsified to obtain the objective cosmetic. The cosmetic promotes the metabolism of cells by the action of active ions and accelerates the absorption of nutriments, when used within the half-life period of radon, i.e. 3.83 days. After elapsing 3.83 days, the alkalinity of the cosmetic gives excellent effect which can never be seen in the conventional cosmetics. It is supposed that radon is effective to activate the raw materials and accelerate the emulsification. The cosmetic thus obtained is applied as it is, or by mixing with conventional cosmetics.
We characterized a total of 175 HLA-DR-associated phosphopeptides using sequential affinity isolation, biochemical enrichment, mass spectrometric sequencing and comparative analysis. Many were derived from source proteins which may have roles in cancer development, growth and metastasis. Most were expressed exclusively by either melanomas or transformed B cells, suggesting the potential to define cell type-specific phosphatome “fingerprints”. We generated HLA-DRβ1*0101-restricted CD4 +  T cells specific for a phospho-MART-1 peptide identified in two melanoma cell lines. These T cells showed specificity for phosphopeptide-pulsed antigen presenting cells as well as for intact melanoma cells. MHC II-restricted phosphopeptides recognizable by human CD4 +  T cells are potential targets for cancer immunotherapy.
INTRODUCTION: Proprioceptive function declines with age, leading to falls, pain, and difficulties in performing activities of daily living among older adults. Although individuals with low back pain (LBP) exhibit decreased lumbosacral proprioception in various postures, the mechanism by which reduced proprioceptive function causes LBP remains uncertain. Vibratory stimulation may enhance proprioceptive function; however, its efficacy in treating LBP has not been investigated. Thus, we investigated the feasibility of improving proprioceptive function and its effect on alleviating chronic LBP in older patients through targeted vibratory therapy (TVT) administration.
METHODS: This single arm designed trial included older patients aged >65 years with non-specific chronic LBP. TVT involved applying vibratory stimulation, matching the frequency of dysfunctional receptors, for 1 min daily over 14 days to activate proprioceptors; patients performed TVT three times daily at home. In cases of reduced proprioceptive function at multiple sites, TVT was aimed at the lowest frequency band value. LBP and proprioceptive function were evaluated at 2 weeks after TVT and at 2 weeks after the end of TVT in patients with declined proprioception in the trunk or lower extremities.
RESULTS: Overall, 56 patients with chronic LBP were enrolled; 32 patients were recruited for treatment based on a proprioceptive dysfunction diagnosis and 24 patients were recruited with a normal diagnosis with no significant differences observed between the two sets of patients in sarcopenia-related factors and clinical proprioception-related characteristics. No patient had any adverse events. Two weeks after TVT, the numerical pain rating scale score improved to <3 points in 78.1% of patients, with 73.1% of patients achieving a score of ≤ 3 points. Proprioceptive function improved in 81.3% of cases, and engagement in activities of daily living improved significantly.
CONCLUSIONS: TVT demonstrated efficacy in improving proprioception and alleviating LBP in older patients with impaired proprioceptive function without affecting non-targeted proprioceptors.
INTRODUCTION: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a standard treatment for aortic stenosis, particularly in older adults. Reduced exercise capacity and frailty significantly impact outcomes in TAVR patients, yet current management lacks strategies to address these issues. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of home-based mobile-guided exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation in TAVR patients, led by a multidisciplinary team with clear progression milestones.
METHODS AND ANALYSIS: The study involves 90 patients aged 60-89 in a single centre who will be randomised to a 3-month novel multidomain exercise intervention or routine care. Outcome assessors will be blinded towards group allocation. The primary outcome is the 6-min walk distance at month 3. The secondary outcomes include the 6-min walk distance at month 6, physical function measured by total Short Physical Performance Battery score and exercise adherence measured by the Exercise Adherence Rating Scale at months 3 and 6. Additional outcome measures, including rehospitalisations, death, handgrip strength, frailty (Fried Criteria and Essential Toolset), cognitive function (Mini-Mental State Examination), quality of life (EuroQol 5-Dimension 5-Level), nutritional status (Mini-Nutritional Assessment), anxiety (General Anxiety Disorder-7), depression (Geriatric Depression Scale), sleep (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), functional capacity (Duke Activity Status Index), clinical indices (body mass index, symptoms, signs, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide, etc) and social support (Lubben Social Network Scale-6), along with comprehensive cost analysis, enhance the study's significance. The study's findings hold crucial implications for crafting an effective exercise-focused cardiac rehabilitation strategy for TAVR patients. Community implementation not only deepens understanding but also fosters the potential integration of exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation into self-care, promising enhanced patient adherence and overall cardiovascular health management.
ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval was obtained from the Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University Ethics Committee (B2022-062R). Results will be disseminated to local stakeholders and the research community through publications and conferences.
TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT05989594.
PURPOSE: To provide a detailed examination of the arterial blood supply to the middle third of the nasal skin through cadaveric dissections, identifying the primary arterial sources and their precise locations.
METHODS: Cadaveric dissections were performed on 14 hemifaces from fresh specimens. The main feeding arteries and their branches were carefully dissected under magnification. Morphometric characteristics of the specimens, along with the caliber of the arteries and their branches vascularizing the mid-third nasal skin were recorded, and statistically analyzed.
RESULTS: Four main arteries were identified as responsible for the blood supply to the mid-third of the nasal skin: the facial artery, the nasal branch of the infra-orbital artery (nbIOA), the dorsal nasal artery, and the upper branches of the columellar plexus. The lateral nasal artery (LNA) and the nbIOA were the main contributors, each providing significantly larger arterial branches than the other sources (1.8 ± 0.8 branches of 0.67 ± 0.2 mm for the LNA, p-value < 0.001-1 ± 0 branches of 0.55 ± 0.17 mm for the nbIOA, p-value < 0.01). The largest arterial branch consistently penetrated the lateral and inferior angle of the mid-third nasal skin, originated either from the LNA or nbIOA.
CONCLUSION: The LNA and nbIOA endorse crucial roles in the arterial blood supply to the mid-third nasal skin. Despite the variability in vascular anatomy, a consistent pattern of arterial supply with convergence in the depth of the alarfacial groove was observed. Understanding these patterns is vital for improving surgical precision and reducing the risk of complications in both aesthetic and reconstructive surgeries.
Potassium Chloride in Sodium Chloride Injection, USP is a sterile, nonpyrogenic, solution for fluid and electrolyte replenishment in a single dose container for intravenous administration. It contains no antimicrobial agents. Composition, osmolarity, pH and ionic concentration are shown in Table 1.

The flexible plastic container is fabricated from a specially formulated polyvinyl chloride (PL 146 Plastic). The amount of water that can permeate from inside the container into the overwrap is insufficient to affect the solution significantly. Solutions in contact with the plastic container can leach out certain of its chemical components in very small amounts within the expiration period. However, the safety of the plastic has been confirmed in tests in animals according to USP biological tests for plastic containers.
Surveys used to conduct this study will be administered via telephone or online by InfoMedics, Inc., a company with a system for developing such patient-physician feedback programs. Participating physicians will ask their patients to participate in the program after Deplin® has been prescribed and provide them with a brochure containing an introduction to the program and instructions on how to enroll. Patients self-enroll, take a brief survey before starting their Deplin® prescription, and then a follow-up survey after 90 days of treatment with Deplin®. As patients complete surveys within the study, their physician will receive individualized feedback reports outlining their patient's treatment experience and progress. Patients will also receive a copy of their own reports, to help encourage them to continue taking Deplin® as directed. Patients will also receive educational materials about managing their depression.
Patients receive oral AZD2171 once daily on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving a CR receive 2 additional courses beyond CR. Patients experiencing disease progression within 5 years after completion of study treatment may receive additional courses of study treatment.
The aberrant activation of the hepatocyte growth factor receptor (c-Met) in malignant melanoma is associated with poor prognosis, fostering tumor progression, angiogenesis, and invasiveness. While therapeutic targeting of this pathway has shown promise in several tumors, our previous findings revealed increased tumorigenicity following tyrosine kinase inhibitor SU11274 treatment. Therefore, we hypothesized that administering c-Met inhibitors may elicit distinct effects in human melanoma cells. In this study, we investigated the influence of three c-Met inhibitors, SU11274, crizotinib, and PHA665752, on molecular characteristics, tumorigenicity, and metastatic behavior in three human melanoma cell lines, M4Beu, EGFP-A375 and its metastatic variant, EGFP-A375/Rel3 (Rel3). Crizotinib and PHA665752 induced upregulation of MET proto-oncogene, receptor tyrosine kinase (MET), alongside cancer stem cell marker Prominin 1 (CD133), pluripotency marker Nanog homeobox (Nanog), and genes encoding angiogenic factors and receptors in Rel3 cells, correlating with supportive effect on tumorigenicity in vivo. The increased tumorigenicity of the Rel3 cells following the SU11274 treatment correlated with the elevated phosphorylation of Akt, p70 S6 and RSK kinases. Our results demonstrate pleiotropic changes induced by small-molecule inhibitors of receptor tyrosine kinases in melanoma cell lines.
Carcinogenesis   
Carcinogenicity studies with paliperidone administered orally have not been performed. 

Carcinogenicity studies with risperidone, which is extensively converted to paliperidone in rats, mice, and humans, were conducted in Swiss albino mice and Wistar rats. Risperidone was administered in the diet at daily doses of 0.63 mg/kg, 2.5 mg/kg, and 10 mg/kg for 18 months to mice and for 25 months to rats. A maximum tolerated dose was not achieved in male mice. There were statistically significant increases in pituitary gland adenomas, endocrine pancreas adenomas, and mammary gland adenocarcinomas. The no-effect dose for these tumors was less than or equal to the MRHD of risperidone based on mg/m 2 body surface area (see risperidone package insert). An increase in mammary, pituitary, and endocrine pancreas neoplasms has been found in rodents after chronic administration of other antipsychotic drugs and is considered to be mediated by prolonged dopamine D 2 antagonism and hyperprolactinemia. The relevance of these tumor findings in rodents to human risk is unclear [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7)]. 

Mutagenesis   
No evidence of genotoxic potential for paliperidone was found in the Ames reverse mutation test, the mouse lymphoma assay, or the in vivo rat micronucleus test. 

Impairment of Fertility   
In a study of fertility, the percentage of treated female rats that became pregnant was not affected at oral doses of paliperidone of up to 2.5 mg/kg/day which is 2 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 body surface area. However, pre- and post-implantation loss was increased, and the number of live embryos was slightly decreased, at 2.5 mg/kg, a dose that also caused slight maternal toxicity. These parameters were not affected at a dose of 0.63 mg/kg, which is half of the MRHD based on mg/m 2 body surface area. 

The fertility of male rats was not affected at oral doses of paliperidone of up to 2 times the MRHD of 12 mg/day based on mg/m 2 body surface area, although sperm count and sperm viability studies were not conducted with paliperidone. In a subchronic study in Beagle dogs with risperidone, which is extensively converted to paliperidone in dogs and humans, all doses tested (0.31 mg/kg to 5.0 mg/kg) resulted in decreases in serum testosterone and in sperm motility and concentration (0.6 to 10 times the MRHD of 16 mg/day for risperidone, based on mg/m 2 body surface area). Serum testosterone and sperm parameters partially recovered, but remained decreased after the last observation (two months after treatment was discontinued).
BACKGROUND: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphomas that remains a major diagnostic challenge due to the variety of its clinical presentations. This case highlights the importance of early biopsy of oral lesions without tendency to heal to attain the diagnosis more quickly. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to focus on both oral and pulmonary involvements in a patient with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
CASE PRESENTATION: The presented case describes an Iranian 18-year-old girl with chronic cough and dyspnea referred for evaluation of the upper jaw due to bone exposure, bone loss, and soft tissue ulceration. Her medical history revealed mediastinal mass, cavitary lesion, and mediastinal lymphadenopathy. However, cytologic and immunohistochemical analysis did not show any evidence of malignancy. In this case a lymphoproliferative disease was suspected but ultimately the oral biopsy diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and chemotherapy could be started.
CONCLUSIONS: Systemic conditions should be considered as a possible cause of oral lesions and a biopsy should also be performed immediately if there is any doubt concerning the nature of the lesion. Moreover, some conditions necessitate multiple biopsies to attain an accurate diagnosis.
Severe burns induce a chronic hypermetabolic state that persists well past wound closure, indicating that additional internal mechanisms must be involved. Adipose tissue is suggested to be a central regulator in perpetuating hypermetabolism, although this has not been directly tested. Here, we show that thermogenic adipose tissues are activated in parallel to increases in hypermetabolism independent of cold stress. Using an adipose tissue transplantation model, we discover that burn-derived subcutaneous white adipose tissue alone is sufficient to invoke a hypermetabolic response in a healthy recipient mouse. Concomitantly, transplantation of healthy adipose tissue alleviates metabolic dysfunction in a burn recipient. We further show that the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor signaling pathway may mediate an immune-adipose crosstalk to regulate adipose tissue remodeling post-injury. Targeting this pathway could lead to innovative therapeutic interventions to counteract hypermetabolic pathologies.
BACKGROUND: Soybean establishes a mutualistic interaction with nitrogen-fixing rhizobacteria, acquiring most of its nitrogen requirements through symbiotic nitrogen fixation. This crop is susceptible to water deficit; evidence suggests that its nodulation status-whether it is nodulated or not-can influence how it responds to water deficit. The translational control step of gene expression has proven relevant in plants subjected to water deficit.
RESULTS: Here, we analyzed soybean roots' differential responses to water deficit at transcriptional, translational, and mixed (transcriptional + translational) levels. Thus, the transcriptome and translatome of four combined-treated soybean roots were analyzed. We found hormone metabolism-related genes among the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) at the translatome level in nodulated and water-restricted plants. Also, weighted gene co-expression network analysis followed by differential expression analysis identified gene modules associated with nodulation and water deficit conditions. Protein-protein interaction network analysis was performed for subsets of mixed DEGs of the modules associated with the plant responses to nodulation, water deficit, or their combination.
CONCLUSIONS: Our research reveals that the stand-out processes and pathways in the before-mentioned plant responses partially differ; terms related to glutathione metabolism and hormone signal transduction (2 C protein phosphatases) were associated with the response to water deficit, terms related to transmembrane transport, response to abscisic acid, pigment metabolic process were associated with the response to nodulation plus water deficit. Still, two processes were common: galactose metabolism and branched-chain amino acid catabolism. A comprehensive analysis of these processes could lead to identifying new sources of tolerance to drought in soybean.

The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), which can result in severe disease, often characterised by a 'cytokine storm' and the associated acute respiratory distress syndrome. However, many infections with SARS-CoV-2 are mild or asymptomatic throughout the course of infection. Although blood biomarkers of severe disease are well studied, less well understood are the inflammatory signatures in lung tissues associated with mild disease or silent infections, wherein infection and inflammation are rapidly resolved leading to sequelae-free recovery. Herein we described RNA-Seq and histological analyses of lungs over time in an omicron BA.1/K18-hACE2 mouse infection model, which displays these latter features. Although robust infection was evident at 2 days post infection (dpi), viral RNA was largely cleared by 10 dpi. Acute inflammatory signatures showed a slightly different pattern of cytokine signatures compared with severe infection models, and where much diminished 30 dpi and absent by 66 dpi. Cellular deconvolution identified significantly increased abundance scores for a number of anti-inflammatory pro-resolution cell types at 5/10 dpi. These included type II innate lymphoid cells, T regulatory cells, and interstitial macrophages. Genes whose expression trended downwards over 2-66 dpi included biomarkers of severe disease and were associated with 'cytokine storm' pathways. Genes whose expression trended upward during this period were associated with recovery of ciliated cells, AT2 to AT1 transition, reticular fibroblasts and innate lymphoid cells, indicating a return to homeostasis. Very few differentially expressed host genes were identified at 66 dpi, suggesting near complete recovery. The parallels between mild or subclinical infections in humans and those observed in this BA.1/K18-hACE2 mouse model are discussed with reference to the concept of "protective inflammation".
