title: Supplementary Material for: Prognostic Impact of Placental Growth Factor on Mortality and Cardiovascular Events in Dialysis Patients

description: <b><i>Background:</i></b> Placental growth factor (PlGF), a member of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family, has recently emerged as a predictor of survival and cardiovascular risk. Along with others, we have shown an independent association between PlGF and cardiovascular events in CKD patients, but not much is known about patients receiving dialysis. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We studied 205 dialysis patients undergoing cardiac catheterization at the Nara Medical University between April 1, 2004, and December 31, 2012. Serum levels of PlGF and VEGF were measured with ELISA in all the patients. <b><i>Results:</i></b> During a median follow-up of 20 months, 121 participants died from any cause or experienced a cardiovascular event. In the fully adjusted analysis, having an above-median PlGF or VEGF level was associated with a hazards ratio for adverse outcomes of 2.55 (1.72-3.83) and 1.39 (0.95-2.04), respectively. Using a multimarker strategy in a model with age, serum albumin, history of coronary artery disease, brain natriuretic peptide and PlGF, patients with 2, 3 and 4 positive markers had a 3.82-, 5.77- and 6.59-fold higher risk of mortality or a cardiovascular event, respectively, compared to those with no positive markers. The model with PlGF had a significantly higher c-statistic, integrated discrimination improvement index and category-free net reclassification improvement index than the model without PlGF. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> PlGF is independently associated with mortality and cardiovascular events, but the association between VEGF and adverse events was attenuated with covariate adjustment. The addition of PlGF to models with established clinical predictors provides additional useful prognostic information in patients receiving dialysis.

title: On Extremal p-Energy of Bicyclic Digraphs

description: The <i>p</i>-energy of a <i>k</i>-vertex digraph <i>D</i> is defined by Ep(D)=∑j=1k|R(λj)I(λj)|, where λ1,…,λk are eigenvalues of <i>D</i> and R(λj) and I(λj) are respectively real and imaginary parts of the eigenvalue λj. In the present paper, we consider a class of bicyclic digraphs such that each digraph in this class contains two vertex-disjoint directed cycles. We find digraphs in this class with extremal <i>p</i>-energy.

title: Supplementary Material for: Enhanced Parenteral Nutrition Is Feasible and Safe in Very Low Birth Weight Preterm Infants: A Randomized Trial

description: <b><i>Objective:</i></b> The objective of this study was to determine the feasibility and safety of enhanced early (PN) (early initiation of intralipids and faster advancement of glucose infusion rate) during the first week of life for very low birth weight (VLBW) preterm infants. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> 90 VLBW preterm infants (&lt;32 weeks gestational age at birth) admitted to the University of Minnesota Masonic Children’s Hospital between August 2017 and June 2019 were included. Enrolled infants were stratified by gestational age-groups and randomized to either the enhanced nutrition protocol (intervention group) or the standard PN protocol (standard group). Welch’s two-sample <i>t</i> tests were used to investigate differences in calorie and protein intake, insulin use, days of hyperglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia, and hypertriglyceridemia, and proportion of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, necrotizing enterocolitis, and death between groups. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Intervention and standard groups were similar in baseline characteristics. The intervention group received higher weekly mean caloric intake (102.6 [SD 24.9] kcal/kg/day versus 89.7 [SD 30.2] kcal/kg/day; <i>p</i> = 0.001) and higher mean caloric intake on days of life 2–4 (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.05 for all). Both groups received the recommended protein intake (≥4 g/kg/day). There were no significant differences in safety or feasibility outcomes between groups (all <i>p</i> values &gt;0.12). <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Utilization of an enhanced nutrition protocol during the first week of life resulted in increased caloric intake and was feasible with no evidence of harm. Follow-up of this cohort is needed to determine if enhanced PN will result in improved growth and neurodevelopment.

title: Supplementary Material for: Association between Toll-Like Receptor 4 T399I Gene Polymorphism and the Susceptibility to Crohn’s Disease: A Meta-Analysis of Case-Control Studies

description: <b><i>Background/Aims:</i></b> This article was undertaken to investigate the association of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) polymorphism (Thr399Ile) and risk of Crohn’s disease (CD) by performing a meta-analysis.<b><i> Methods:</i></b> Articles were chosen based on PubMed, Embase, China National Knowledge Internet, and Chinese Wanfang databases (up to 12th October 2016). Specific inclusion criteria were used to evaluate articles. Meta-analysis was performed by using a random or fixed effect model. Fifteen eligible case-control studies were finally included into this meta-analysis. We estimated the summary OR with its corresponding 95% CI to assess the association.<b><i> Results:</i></b> Summary results of this meta-analysis showed a moderate association between the TLR4 T399I polymorphism and the risk of CD (allele model: OR 1.26, 95% CI 1.06–1.50, <i>p</i> = 0.009; heterozygote model: OR 1.36, 95% CI 1.11–1.66, <i>p</i> = 0.003; dominant model: OR 1.35, 95% CI 1.10–1.64, <i>p</i> = 0.004; homozygote model: OR 1.08, 95% CI 0.44–2.64, <i>p</i> = 0.866; recessive model: OR 0.97, 95% CI 0.40–2.35, <i>p</i> = 0.946). Stratified analysis on geographical area, ethnicity, and genotypic methods suggested that the polymorphism was associated with increased risk of CD in Asia and Asians, and “T” allele only moderately increased CD risk within polymerase chain reaction-restricted fragment length polymorphism. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Our meta-analysis suggests that TLR4 T399I polymorphism is moderately associated with susceptibility to CD, and more studies are needed to confirm our conclusion.

title: An innovative application of double slider-crank mechanism in efficient of the scanning acoustic microscopy system

description: This paper proposes an innovative application of double slider-crank mechanism, which is utilized to develop a fast scanning module (FSM) of the scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM) system for evaluating the quality of 12-inch silicon wafer, that is, WFSAM system. In this application, the slider displacement and velocity are two critical parameters that must be carefully calculated to ensure the WFSAM system operates properly. Based on the scanning requirements, the slider displacement and velocity were calculated to determine the operation parameters of WFSAM system. A custom sample with known dimensions was prepared to scan using WFSAM system, which validated the WFSAM capabilities in order to provide internal information with accurate measurement. The quality of two 12-inch silicon wafers was evaluated using the WFSAM system. Finally, the design process of slider-crank mechanism is illustrated by a flowchart, which is used to develop the FSM of SAM system for inspecting any sample size.

title: Supplementary Material for: Treatment of colorectal lung metastases: two centers retrospective study

description: Introduction 
Clear guidelines for colorectal lung metastases (LM) treatment are not available. This study aimed to provide insight in the treatment strategies and efficacy of local and systemic therapy in patients with LM eligible for (potentially) curative treatment.

Material and methods
This was a retrospective study of patients with ≤5 LM discussed in two tertiary referral centers. Patient and tumor characteristics were compared between treatment groups. Treatment strategies were compared between centers and survival data between treatment groups, local treatment modalities, and treating centers.

Results
Ninety-two patients (median 2 LM) were included. Seventy-one (77%) patients underwent local treatment (17 surgery, 13 ablation, 38 radiotherapy, 3 combination of local treatments) and 21 (23%) with systemic therapy alone. The latter group more frequently had extra pulmonary metastases (81.0% vs 26.8%, p&lt;0.001) and synchronous presentation of LM (23.8% vs 7.0%, p=0.045). Choice of local versus systemic therapy and time to start treatment after diagnosis (median 109 days, IQR 44-240 vs 88 days, IQR 53-168) were comparable between centers. Three-year survival rates did not differ between treatment groups, local treatment modalities, or treating centers.

Conclusion
Treatment strategies and oncological outcomes were rather similar between centers. Survival outcomes were not different between locally and systemically treated patients.

title: Supplementary Material for: High obesity indices are associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease, but low obesity indices are associated with peptic ulcer disease in a large Taiwanese population study

description: Introduction: Gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) and peptic ulcer disease (PUD) are prevalent in Taiwan. Few studies have investigated the associations between obesity indices with GERD and PUD simultaneously. This study aimed to investigate the correlations among obesity indices with GERD and PUD in a large cohort of participants, around 120,000, in the Taiwan Biobank (TWB). 
Methods: A total of 121,583 participants (male: 43,698; female: 77,885; mean age 49.9 ± 11.0 years) were included to analyze the associations among obesity indices, including body mass index (BMI), waist–hip ratio (WHR), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), body roundness index (BRI), abdominal volume index (AVI), lipid accumulation product (LAP), visceral adiposity index (VAI) and triglyceride–glucose Index (TyG index), with GERD and PUD. Self-reported GERD and PUD were obtained by questionnaires. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to analyze the relationship between obesity indices with GERD and PUD. 
Results: The prevalence of GERD and PUD was 13.7% and 14.6%, respectively. After multivariable analysis, high WHR (odds ratio [OR] = 1.009, p &lt; 0.001), WHtR (OR = 1.005, p = 0.003), BRI (OR = 1.022, p =0.005), AVI (OR = 1.013, p &lt; 0.001), LAP (OR = 1.001, p &lt; 0.001), TyG index (OR = 1.068, p &lt; 0.001) and VAI (OR = 1.013, p = 0.002) were significantly associated with GERD, except BMI (p = 0.384). On the other hand, low BMI (OR = 0.984; p &lt; 0.001), and AVI (OR = 0.994; p = 0.036) were significantly associated with PUD. However, the value of WHR (p = 0.151), WHtR (p = 0.304), BRI (p = 0.452), LAP (p = 0.799), VAI (p = 0.347), and TyG index (p = 0.642) were not. 
Conclusion: This study found that high obesity indices are associated with GERD, but low obesity indices are associated with PUD in a large Taiwanese population study. Our findings may alert physicians to notice that different obesity index may be associated with different gastrointestinal disorder.

title: Supplementary Material for: International online survey on the management of patent ductus arteriosus

description: Introduction
There is uncertainty and lack of consensus regarding optimal management of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). We aimed to determine current clinical practice in PDA management across a range of different regions internationally.
Materials and Methods
We surveyed PDA management practices in neonatal intensive care units using a pre-piloted web-based survey, which was distributed to perinatal societies in 31 countries. The survey was available online from March 2018 to March 2019. 
Results
There were 812 responses. The majority of clinicians (54%) did not have institutional protocols for PDA treatment and 42% reported variable management within their own unit. Among infants &lt;28 weeks (or &lt;1000g), most clinicians (60%) treat symptomatically. Respondents in Australasia were more likely to treat PDA pre-symptomatically (44% vs 18% all countries [OR 4.1; 95% CI 2.6-6.5; p&lt;0.001]) and respondents from North America were more likely to treat symptomatic PDA (67% vs 60% all countries [OR 2.0; 95% CI 1.5-2.6; p&lt;0.001]). In infants ≥28 weeks (or ≥1000g), most clinicians (54%) treat symptomatically. Respondents in North America were more likely to treat PDAs in this group of infants conservatively (47% vs 38% all countries [OR 2.3; 95% CI 1.7-3.2]; p&lt;0.001) and respondents from Asia were more likely to treat the PDA pre-symptomatically (21% vs 7% all countries [OR 5.5; 95% CI 3.2-9.8; p&lt;0.001]).
Discussion/Conclusion
There were marked international differences in clinical practice, highlighting ongoing uncertainty and a lack of consensus regarding PDA management. An international conglomeration to coordinate research that prioritises and addresses these areas of contention is indicated.

title: Supplementary Material for: Interleukin-1β as a Predictor of Glucocorticoid Response in Ulcerative Colitis

description: <b><i>Background/Aim:</i></b> Currently, there are no established biomarkers to differentiate between glucocorticoid (GC)-resistant and GC-sensitive ulcerative colitis (UC); however, interleukin (IL)-1β could be one such candidate biomarker. The aim of this study was to investigate whether mucosally expressed IL-1β could predict the response to GC in patients with UC. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> A total of 27 mucosal tissue samples from 10 patients with GC-resistant UC (GC-resistant group), 9 patients with GC-sensitive UC (GC-sensitive group), and 8 control patients (control group) were analyzed by qRT-PCR for the expression of IL-1β, GC receptor α (GRα), GRβ, and other inflammatory mediators. Rachmilewitz endoscopic index (REI) between the GC-resistant and GC-sensitive groups was matched to avoid any potential influence of inflammation. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The REI did not significantly differ between the GC-resistant and GC-sensitive groups. Mucosally expressed IL-1β levels in the GC-resistant group were significantly higher than those in the GC-sensitive group. However, there were no significant differences in the expression levels of GRα, GRβ, and other inflammatory mediators between the 2 groups. We could distinguish between the GC-resistant and GC-sensitive groups with a sensitivity of 90.0% and specificity of 77.8% based on mucosally expressed IL-1β. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Mucosally expressed IL-1β can be used as a predictor of GC response in patients with UC.
