BackgroundExpansion and activation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) in vitro represents a promising immunotherapeutic strategy, and CTLs can be primed by dendritic cells (DCs) loaded with tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) transformed by recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV). This study aimed to explore the impact of rAAV-DC-induced CTLs on prognosis of CRC and to explore factors associated with prognosis.MethodsThis prospective observational study included patients operated for CRC at Yan’an Hospital Affiliated to Kunming Medical University between 2016 and 2019. The primary outcome was progression-free survival (PFS), secondary outcomes were overall survival (OS) and adverse events. Totally 49 cases were included, with 29 and 20 administered rAAV-DC-induced CTL and chemotherapy, respectively.ResultsAfter 37-69 months of follow-up (median, 54 months), OS (P=0.0596) and PFS (P=0.0788) were comparable between two groups. Mild fever occurred in 2 (6.9%) patients administered CTL infusion. All the chemotherapy group experienced mild-to-moderate adverse effects, including vasculitis (n=20, 100%), vomiting (n=5, 25%), nausea (n=17, 85%) and fatigue (n=17, 85%).ConclusionsLymphatic metastasis (hazard ratio [HR]=4.498, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.290-15.676; P=0.018) and lower HLA-I expression (HR=0.294, 95%CI: 0.089-0.965; P=0.044) were associated with poor OS in the CTL group. CTLs induced by rAAV-DCs might achieve comparable effectiveness in CRC patients compare to chemotherapy, cases with high tumor-associated HLA-I expression and no lymphatic metastasis were more likely to benefit from CTLs.
A web app-based music intervention reduces experimental thermal pain: A randomized trial on preferred versus least-liked music style
Authors: Soyeux Orelle , Marchand Serge 
Published: January 2023

Digital technologies are increasingly being used to strengthen national health systems. Music is used as a management technique for pain. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the effects of a web app-based music intervention on pain. The participants were healthy adults and underwent three conditions: Conditioned Pain Modulation (CPM), Most-Liked Music (MLM) and Least-Liked Music (LLM). The music used is MUSIC CARE©, a web app-based personalized musical intervention (“U” Sequence based on a musical composition algorithm). Thermal pain was measured before starting the 20-min music intervention and after three time points for each music condition: 2.20, 11.30, and 20 min. Mean pain perceptions were significantly reduced under both LLM and MLM conditions. Pain decrease was more important under MLM condition than LLM condition at 2.20 min with a mean difference between both conditions of 9.7 (±3.9) (p = 0.0195) and at 11.30 min [9.2 (±3.3), p = 0.0099]. LLM is correlated with CPM but not MLM, suggesting different mechanisms between LLM and MLM. Musical intervention, a simple method of application, fits perfectly into a multidisciplinary global approach and helps to treat the pain and anxiety disorders of participants.Clinical trial registration: [https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04862832], ClinicalTrials.gov [NCT04862832].

ObjectivesTo study changes in heart function and hemodynamics during the transitional period in small for gestational (SGA) infants and appropriate (AGA) healthier counterparts.DesignA hospital based prospective observational study was performed at a perinatal center. Echocardiograms were performed on the first postnatal day and again at 48 h age. Term SGA infants were compared with those AGA newborns matched for the GA and mode of delivery.ResultsEighteen SGA infants were compared with 18 AGA infants [gestation 38 ± 1.5 vs. 38 ± 1.2 weeks, p &gt; 0.05 and birthweight 2331 ± 345 vs. 3332 ± 405 grams, p &lt; 0.05, respectively]. Maternal weight and body mass index was higher among non-affected pregnancies, 61% infants were born vaginally, and no differences in cord blood pH at birth were noted. SGA infants had higher systolic and mean blood pressure at both time points, lower indices of right ventricular (RV) performance [TAPSE (tricuspid annular peak systolic excursion) 7.4 ± 2.8 vs. 9.3 ± 0.7 on day 1, 7.2 ± 2.8 vs. 9.2 ± 0.5 on day 2, p = 0.001], lower pulmonary acceleration time (PAAT) suggestive of elevated pulmonary vascular resistance [56.4 ± 10.5 vs. 65.7 ± 13.2 on day 1, 61.4 ± 12.5 vs. 71.5 ± 15.7 on day 2, p = 0.01] and higher left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction [62.1 ± 7.8 vs. 54.9 ± 5.5 on day 1, 61.9 ± 7.6 vs. 55.8 ± 4.9 on day 2, p = 0.003].ConclusionsSGA infants had evidence of higher pulmonary vascular resistance, and lower RV performance during the postnatal transition. The relevance and impact of these changes to hemodynamic disease states during the postnatal transition requires prospective investigation.

ObjectiveTo construct an artificial intelligence system to measure acetabular index and evaluate its accuracy in clinical application.MethodsA total of 10,219 standard anteroposterior pelvic radiographs were collected retrospectively from April 2014 to December 2018 in our hospital. Of these, 9,219 radiographs were randomly selected to train and verify the system. The remaining 1,000 radiographs were used to compare the system's and the clinicians' measurement results. All plain pelvic films were labeled by an expert committee through PACS system based on a uniform standard to measure acetabular index. Subsequently, eight other clinicians independently measured the acetabular index from 200 randomly selected radiographs from the test radiographs. Bland–Altman test was used for consistency analysis between the system and clinician measurements.ResultsThe test set included 1,000 cases (2,000 hips). Compared with the expert committee measurement, the 95% limits of agreement (95% LOA) of the system was −4.02° to 3.45° (bias = −0.27°, P &lt; 0.05). The acetabular index measured by the system within all age groups, including normal and abnormal groups, also showed good credibility according to the Bland–Altman principle. Comparison of the measurement evaluations by the system and eight clinicians vs. that of, the expert committee, the 95% LOA of the clinician with the smallest measurement error was −2.76° to 2.56° (bias = −0.10°, P = 0.126). The 95% LOA of the system was −0.93° to 2.86° (bias = −0.03°, P = 0.647). The 95% LOA of the clinician with the largest measurement error was −3.41° to 4.25° (bias = 0.42°, P &lt; 0.05). The measurement error of the system was only greater than that of a senior clinician.ConclusionThe newly constructed artificial intelligence system could quickly and accurately measure the acetabular index of standard anteroposterior pelvic radiographs. There is good data consistency between the system in measuring standard anteroposterior pelvic radiographs. The accuracy of the system is closer to that of senior clinicians.
Neurodevelopmental and functional outcome in hypoplastic left heart syndrome after Hybrid procedure as stage I
Authors: Knirsch Walter , De Silvestro Alexandra , von Rhein Michael 
Published: January 2023

BackgroundPatients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) undergoing staged palliation until Fontan procedure are at risk for impaired neurodevelopmental (ND) outcome. The Hybrid procedure with bilateral pulmonary artery banding, ductal stenting, and balloon atrioseptostomy may offer a less invasive stage I procedure compared to the Norwood stage I procedure avoiding early neonatal cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery. Despite altered fetal cerebral hemodynamics, the type of stage I procedure may be a covariate influencing ND outcome and functional outcome may also be altered due to postponing neonatal CPB surgery. Within this review, we analyzed ND outcome as well as functional outcome after Hybrid procedure as stage I procedure.MethodsThe review analyzed original publications (OPs) published before March 15, 2022, identified by Cochrane, EMBASE, OVID, Scopus, and Web of science. An OP was included if short-to-long-term neurodevelopment outcome, brain development, somatic, and cardiac outcome in patients for HLHS and variants treated by Hybrid procedure were analyzed. In addition to database searches, we reviewed all references of the analyzed OP to obtain a comprehensive list of available studies. The author, year of publication, demographic characteristics of study population, study design (prospective or retrospective), study assessment, and main findings were summarized.ResultsTwenty-one OPs were included with data of patients with ND outcome and functional cardiac outcome. Overall, there is an impaired mid-term ND outcome in patients with Hybrid procedure as stage I for HLHS. Only slight differences between stage I procedures (Hybrid vs. Norwood) in two comparing studies have been determined affecting right ventricular remodeling, short- and mid-term ND outcome, reduced brain growth until two years of age, sufficient quality of life, and altered hemodynamics influencing brain volumes and cerebral perfusion pattern.ConclusionsDespite some minor differences regarding the mid-term follow-up in patients with HLHS comparing Hybrid vs. Norwood procedure, its impact on ND outcome seems rather low. This may be explained by the large number of covariates as well as the small study populations and the different selection criteria for patients undergoing Hybrid or Norwood procedure as stage I.

IntroductionPremature birth is associated with long-term somatic and neurological disorders, including cognitive, social and behavioral impairments. Moreover, the mothers of infants born preterm exhibit a higher prevalence of anxiety and depressive symptoms after birth. Early rehabilitation, developmental care, and parenting support have already been shown to have a positive impact on neurological outcome. However, no randomized controlled study has so far assessed the effects on parenting and long-term neurological outcomes of proprioceptive stimulation to trigger positive brain plasticity in very preterm babies. The CALIN project will therefore investigate the impact of sensory-tonic stimulation (STS) of extremely preterm infants by their parents on child parent interactions, infants' morphological and functional brain development and subsequent cognition (including social cognition), and parents' anxiety and depressive symptoms in the postpartum period.Methods and analysisInfants born between 25 and 32 weeks of gestation will be randomly assigned to the “STS + Kangaroo care” or “Kangaroo care” group. The primary endpoint, child and parent interactions, will be rated at 12 months corrected age using the Coding Interactive Behavior system. Secondary endpoints include: 1/functional and anatomical brain maturation sequentially assessed during neonatal hospitalization using electroencephalogram (EEG), amplitude-integrated EEG (aEEG), cranial ultrasound and MRI performed at term-corrected age, 2/social and cognitive outcomes assessed at 15 months, 2, 4 and 6 years, and 3/parents' anxiety and depressive symptoms assessed at 7 ± 1 weeks after birth, using dedicated questionnaires.Ethics and disseminationThis study was approved by the French Ethics Committee for the Protection of Persons on 18 October 2021. It is registered with the French National Agency for the Safety of Medicines and Health Products (ANSM; no. 2020-A00382–37). The registry number on ClinicalTrials.gov is NCT04380051.

BackgroundFatal infantile hypertonic myofibrillar myopathy (FIHMM) is an autosomal recessive hereditary disease characterized by amyotrophy, progressive flexion contracture and ankylosis of the trunk and limb muscles, apnea and respiratory failure, and increased creatine phosphate levels. It is caused by mutations in the CRYAB gene, and only around 18 cases including genetic mutations have been reported worldwide. All patients with FIHMM develop respiratory distress, progressive stiffness of the limbs, and have a poor prognosis. However, no effective treatment for CRYAB-associated respiratory failure has been reported. Here, we report a case of FIHMM with a novel heterozygous missense mutation.Case PresentationA 2-year-old female developed scoliosis of the lumbar spine and restrictive ventilatory dysfunction in infancy. She was admitted to the hospital with labored breathing on the third day after the second injection of inactivated poliomyelitis vaccine. Acute respiratory failure, pneumothorax, and cardiac arrest arose in the patient during hospitalization, and progressive stiffness of the trunk and limb muscles appeared, accompanied by obvious abdominal distension and an increase in phosphocreatine kinase levels. Screenings for genetic metabolic diseases in the blood and urine were normal. Electromyography revealed mild myogenic damage. A muscle biopsy indicated the accumulation of desmin, α-crystallin, and myotilin in the musculus biceps brachii, and dense granules were observed in muscle fibers using electron microscopy. Mutation analysis of CRYAB revealed a novel heterozygous missense mutation in the proband, c.302A &gt; C (p.His101Pro) and c.3G &gt; A (p.Met1Ile), which inherited from her asymptomatic, heterozygous carrier parents, respectively. The proband was finally diagnosed as FIHMM. One month after the FIHMM diagnosis, the child died of respiratory failure.ConclusionWe report a case of FIHMM with a novel heterozygous missense mutation of CRYAB. This finding might improve our understanding of FIHMM and highlight a novel mutation in the Chinese population.

Aims: Genetic variants increase the susceptibility to anti-drug antibodies (ADA) in response to anti-TNF therapy in chronic inflammatory diseases. However, little is known about genetic variants in Chinese populations. This study aimed to identify genetic variants contributing to the risk of the development of antibodies to infliximab (ATI) in Chinese patients with Crohn’s disease (CD).Methods: CD patients (n = 104) treated with infliximab (IFX) during the maintenance therapy were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. ATI was assessed by an in-house developed drug-tolerant ELISA method. ATI titers of 1:20 and ≥1:60 were considered a low titer and a high titer, respectively. Thirteen types of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within 13 genes involved in the immune process, the susceptibility to chronic inflammatory diseases, cytokines and apoptosis pathways were investigated.Results: The median trough levels of infliximab (TLI) in patients with clinical remission (CR) were higher than those in patients without CR (3.80 vs. 1.50 μg/mL, p &lt; .001). The median TLI in patients with high-titer ATI was significantly lower than that in ATI-negative patients (1.15 vs. 4.48 μg/mL, p &lt; .001) or those with low-titer ATI (1.15 vs. 2.95 μg/mL, p = .03). The HLA-DQA1*05 rs2097432 GG and GA genotypes were more frequent in patients with ATI (GG and AG vs. AA, 27/38 = 71.05% vs. 29/66 = 43.94%, OR 2.94, 95% CI 1.19–7.30, p = .02). Patients carrying the CC and AC genotypes of rs396991 in FCGR3A were associated with a higher frequency of ATI formation (CC and AC vs. AA, 37/57 = 64.91% vs. 19/47 = 40.43%, OR 2.94, 95% CI 1.24–6.96, p = .01). According to the number of variants in rs2097432 and rs393991, patients with two variants had a higher proportion of producing ATI (two variants vs. no variant, 17/21 = 80.95% vs. 9/30 = 30.00%, OR 9.92, 95% CI 2.59–37.87, p = .001; single variant vs. no variant, 30/53 = 56.60% vs. 9/30 = 30.00%, OR 3.04, 95% CI 1.18–7.88, p = .02). No association was found between other SNPs and ATI production.Conclusion: Rs2097432 in HLA-DQA1*05 and rs396991 in FCGR3A are associated with ATI production in Chinese patients with CD. A pharmacogenomic strategy could help with the clinical management of CD.
Why scapegoating can ruin an apology: The mediated-moderation model of appropriate crisis response messages in the context of South Korea
Authors: Youk Sungbin , Park Hee Sun 
Published: January 2023

IntroductionAs South Korean companies frequently use apologies for various crisis situations and pair them with other types of crisis response strategies (i.e., scapegoating), theory-driven recommendations for crisis response messages may fall short in practice. This study empirically examines the effectiveness of two crisis response messages (i.e., apology + compensation vs. apology + scapegoating) by integrating the theory of communicative responsibility and situational crisis communication theory.MethodsSouth Korean participants (n = 392) read one of two vignettes: the vignettes described an automobile company’s apology for malfunctioning seat belts which included either compensation or scapegoating. The participant’s perceived communicative responsibility, appropriateness of the apology, and reputation of the company were measured. Process analysis was conducted to examine the mediated-moderation effect of the crisis response messages.Results and DiscussionThe findings indicate that an apology that is provided with compensation is more appropriate than those with scapegoating. The appropriateness is moderated by the perceived symmetry in communicative responsibility, and fully mediates the relationship between apology type and reputation. This study integrates two theoretical models to examine the mechanism behind the crisis response strategies from the perspective of the message receivers, while considering the cultural and normative context of South Korea.

IntroductionIn recent years, the relationship between academic burnout (AB) and problematic mobile phone use (PMPU) has become the hot issue of scholars, and a lot of related research has been carried out, but the results are different. Most studies showed that there was a significant positive correlation between AB and PMPU. However, some studies showed that the relationship between AB and PMPU was not significant. While this study aimed at exploring the relationship between AB and PMPU, as well as the influence of some moderating factors (region, age, gender, publication year, the measurement instrument) on them.MethodsAccording to the searching process for studies of PRISMA, we searched the related studies on AB and PMPU in Mainland China from January 2012 to November 2022 from CNKI, Wanfang Data, Chongqing VIP Information Co., Ltd. (VIP), Baidu scholar, ProQuest dissertations, Taylor &amp; Francis, Springer, Web of Science, Google Scholar, EBSCO and PsyclNFO. Eventually, 50 studies were included in the meta-analysis, involving 38,488 subjects, with the sample size ranging from 193 to 2,260. CMA 3.0 was used to analyze the overall effect and test the moderating effect.ResultsThe result shows that the relationship between AB and PMPU can be considered as a moderate correlation (r = 0.414, 95%CI [0.384, 0.443]), and moderator analysis shows that the relationship between AB and PMPU was moderated by the measurement instrument and publication year.DiscussionSpecifically, when the Mobile Phone Addiction Tendency Scale and the Smartphone Addiction Scale for College Students were used as PMPU measurement tools, the correlation coefficients between AB and PMPU were higher. When the publication year was used as a moderating variable, the relationship between AB and PMPU increased over the years.Systematic Review Registration: https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?ID=CRD42022347277, identifier PROSPERO CRD42022347277.

BackgroundMental diseases are very widespread and difficult to treat, affecting around 12% of the global population in 2019. Since social interaction is crucial to human existence and loneliness has been proven to be a significant predictor of depressive symptoms, it stands to reason that social connection problems would also contribute to depression. Physical inactivity seems to weaken and aggravate insulin tolerance alterations, glucose homeostasis, and plasma triglyceride levels, thereby influencing one's mood and happiness. This suggests that physical inactivity may be a significant risk factor for mental illness. This research contributes to our understanding of the mental health situation in Syria by exploring associations between a set of measurable characteristics that may be adjusted.MethodsAn online quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted between March and April 2022 in Syria, using a structured questionnaire that assesses data on behaviors of health, health in general, wellbeing, and adult population quality of life.ResultsAmong 1,224 respondents (371 men and 853 women), women have shown higher levels of mental distress, sleep issues, low engagement in structured activities, and a difficult work environment than men. Women experiencing mental anguish have reported being more sedentary, participating in less scheduled activities, and receiving less social support.ConclusionsThere are observable connections between high sedentary time and women experiencing mental distress. The mental health of Syrian women in distress was associated with a lack of participation in both organized activities and physical exercise in their free time. Furthermore, sleep issues and financial troubles were seen in persons with mental diseases of both males and females.
