Risks associated with cryopreserved semen in a human sperm bank during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

RESEARCH QUESTION: What are the risks associated with cryopreserved semen collected during and after the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic wave in Wuhan, China? DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study involving young adult men who were qualified sperm donors at the Hunan Province Human Sperm Bank (China) during the pandemic wave (1 January 2020 to 30 January 2020) and after the wave and return to work (7 April 2020 to 30 May 30 2020). One hundred paired semen and blood specimens from 100 donors were included. One-step single-tube nested quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (OSN-qRT-PCR) was used to detect SARS-CoV-2. Moreover, to control the unacceptable risk of false-negative results, a second round of screening was performed with pooled RNA from negative semen samples using crystal digital PCR (cd-PCR). RESULTS: For individual blood and semen samples, the target genes, namely the nucleocapsid protein (N) and open reading frame (ORF-1ab) genes, tested negative in all of the 100 paired samples. Further, as per cd-PCR results, there were >20,000 droplets per well in the RNA for each combined sample and no positive droplets were present for either of the aforementioned target genes. A total of 100 paired semen and blood samples from these two groups tested negative for SARS-CoV-2. CONCLUSIONS: Cryopreserved semen at the Hunan Province Human Sperm Bank during and after the COVID-19 pandemic wave was free of SARS-CoV-2 and was judged safe for external use in the future.

Intra-Cytosplamic sperm injection outcomes with fresh and cryopreserved human epidydimal sperm from patients with obstructive azoospermia.

Techniques for the cryopreservation of epididymal sperm was are widely used in clinical practice. However, given the unique characteristics of sperm from patients with obstructive azoospermia, epididymal sperm cryopreservation is more difficult because of low count and weak motility; therefore, conventional methods of sperm cryopreservation may not result in the best outcomes. We used the micro-straw method to store small quantities of sperm obtained from patients with severe oligozoospermia or azoospermia and achieved successful deliveries in the previous study. This retrospective study of ICSI cycles included the first ICSI cycles of fresh or frozen/thawed epididymal sperm that were performed in patients suffering from obstructive azoospermia who were admitted to the CITIC-Xiangya Hospital of Reproduction and Genetics of China from June 1, 2015 to June 31, 2019. A total of 2441 patients with obstructive azoospermia were divided according to the use of fresh (n = 2342) or frozen/thawed (n = 99) epididymal sperm. The results showed that the fertilisation rate was higher with fresh epididymal sperm than that with frozen/thawed epididymal sperm (85.14% vs. 79.26%, respectively; p = 0.000). However, the rates of embryo cleavage, high-quality embryos, clinical pregnancy, miscarriage, singletons and birth defect were similar between fresh and frozen/thawed epididymal sperm (98.28% vs. 99.13%, 60.34% vs. 57.29%, 67.90% vs. 70.51%, 8.12% vs. 10.91%, 57.76% vs. 49.09%, 1.59% vs. 1.45%respectively; p = 0.088, 0.109, 0.628, 0.462,0.203 and 0.686). In addition, the short-term cryostorage of small quantities of epididymal sperm did not affect clinical outcomes. The results indicated that in cases of obstructive azoospermia, cryostorage of small quantities epididymal sperm is a reliable option.

Sperm donor lifestyle survey: modifiable risk factors for potential sperm donors.

OBJECTIVES: To examine the association between modifiable lifestyle factors and the main semen parameter values, the number of qualified sperm donors, and to provide some sensible guidance for sperm donors. METHODS: Healthy men screened as potential sperm donors were recruited in the Hunan Province Human Sperm Bank of China from March 2019 to December 2019. Participants were invited to complete interviewer-assisted questionnaires on eleven items of information. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to analyze which lifestyle factors collected by the questionnaire had an impact on the eligibility and main semen parameters of sperm donors. RESULTS: The eligibility of men as sperm donors was strongly influenced by the duration of abstinence (P = 0.002). The rate of eligibility sperm donors increased significantly with the number of days of abstinence. In addition, semen volume increased with abstinence time (P = 0.000). Exercise frequency (P = 0.025) and abstinence time (P = 0.000) were positively correlated with sperm concentration, and masturbation frequency was negatively correlated with sperm concentration (P = 0.013). Progressive sperm motility was significantly affected by abstinence time (P = 0.000) and bedtime (P = 0.047). CONCLUSIONS: Abstinence time was highly associated with semen parameters and donor qualification. Increase the abstinence time before donation may be meaningful in improving the proportion of eligible sperm donors.

Resveratrol Enhances Inhibition Effects of Cisplatin on Cell Migration and Invasion and Tumor Growth in Breast Cancer MDA-MB-231 Cell Models In Vivo and In Vitro.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a refractory type of breast cancer that does not yet have clinically effective drugs. The aim of this study is to investigate the synergistic effects and mechanisms of resveratrol combined with cisplatin on human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 (MDA231) cell viability, migration, and invasion in vivo and in vitro. In vitro, MTS assays showed that resveratrol combined with cisplatin inhibits cell viability as a concentration-dependent manner, and produced synergistic effects (CI < 1). Transwell assay showed that the combined treatment inhibits TGF-ß1-induced cell migration and invasion. Immunofluorescence assays confirmed that resveratrol upregulated E-cadherin expression and downregulated vimentin expression. Western blot assay demonstrated that resveratrol combined with cisplatin significantly reduced the expression of fibronectin, vimentin, P-AKT, P-PI3K, P-JNK, P-ERK, Sma2, and Smad3 induced by TGF-ß1 (p < 0.05), and increased the expression of E-cadherin (p < 0.05), respectively. In vivo, resveratrol enhanced tumor growth inhibition and reduced body weight loss and kidney function impairment by cisplatin in MDA231 xenografts, and significantly reduced the expressions of P-AKT, P-PI3K, Smad2, Smad3, P-JNK, P-ERK, and NF-κB in tumor tissues (p < 0.05). These results indicated that resveratrol combined with cisplatin inhibits the viability of breast cancer MDA231 cells synergistically, and inhibits MDA231 cells invasion and migration through Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) approach, and resveratrol enhanced anti-tumor effect and reduced side of cisplatin in MDA231 xenografts. The mechanism may be involved in the regulations of PI3K/AKT, JNK, ERK and NF-κB expressions.

Development of a novel anti-liver fibrosis formula with luteolin, licochalcone A, aloe-emodin and acacetin by network pharmacology and transcriptomics analysis.

CONTEXT: Xiaoyaosan decoction (XYS), a classical Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) formula is used to treat liver fibrosis in clinics. OBJECTIVE: This study explores defined compound combinations from XYS decoction to treat liver fibrosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Network pharmacology combined with transcriptomics analysis was used to analyze the XYS decoction and liver depression and spleen deficiency syndrome liver fibrosis. From the constructed XYS-Syndrome-liver fibrosis network, the top 10 active formulas were developed by topological analysis according to network stability. The most active formula was determined by in vitro study. The anti-fibrosis effect was evaluated by in vitro and in vivo studies. RESULTS: According to the network XYS-Syndrome-liver fibrosis network, 8 key compounds and 255 combinations were predicted from in XYS. Luteolin, licochalcone A, aloe-emodin and acacetin formula (LLAAF) had a synergistic effect on the proliferation inhibition of hepatic stellate cells compared to individual compounds alone. The treatment of XYS and LLAAF showed a similar anti-liver fibrotic effect that reduced histopathological changes of liver fibrosis, Hyp content and levels of α-SMA and collagen I in CCl4-induced liver fibrosis in rats. Transcriptomics analysis revealed LLAAF regulated PI3K-Akt, AMPK, FoxO, Jak-STAT3, P53, cell cycle, focal adhesion, and PPAR signalling. Furthermore, LLAAF was confirmed to regulate Jak-STAT and PI3K-Akt-FoxO signalling in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSIONS: This study developed a novel anti-liver formula LLAAF from XYS, and demonstrated its anti-liver fibrotic activity which may be involved in the regulation of Jak-STAT and PI3K-Akt-FoxO signalling.

Nickel-Catalyzed Asymmetric Reductive Carbo-Carboxylation of Alkenes with CO2.

Reductive carboxylation of organo (pseudo)halides with CO2 is a powerful method to provide carboxylic acids quickly. Notably, the catalytic reductive carbo-carboxylation of unsaturated hydrocarbons via CO2 fixation is a highly challenging but desirable approach for structurally diverse carboxylic acids. There are only a few reports and no examples of alkenes via transition metal catalysis. We report the first asymmetric reductive carbo-carboxylation of alkenes with CO2 via nickel catalysis. A variety of aryl (pseudo)halides, such as aryl bromides, aryl triflates and inert aryl chlorides of particular note, undergo the reaction smoothly to give important oxindole-3-acetic acid derivatives bearing a C3-quaternary stereocenter. This transformation features mild reaction conditions, wide substrate scope, facile scalability, good to excellent chemo-, regio- and enantioselectivities. The method highlights the formal synthesis of (-)-Esermethole, (-)-Physostigmine and (-)-Physovenine, and the total synthesis of (-)-Debromoflustramide B, (-)-Debromoflustramine B and (+)-Coixspirolactam A; thereby, opening an avenue for the total synthesis of chiral natural products with CO2 .

Comparison of norepinephrine, dopamine and dobutamine combined with enteral nutrition in the treatment of elderly patients harboring sepsis.

The present study was performed in order to investigate the safety and efficacy of different vasoactive drugs combined with enteral nutrition in terms of treating elderly patients with sepsis. A total of 75 elderly patients with sepsis treated with enteral nutrition in our hospital were randomly divided into three groups: group A (n = 25), group B (n = 25) and group C (n = 25). The three groups were treated with dopamine, dobutamine and norepinephrine respectively. One week after treatment, the therapeutic effects of the three groups were compared, the vascular elastic indexes, hemodynamic indexes and levels of inflammatory factors of the three groups were measured. After treatment, the clinical effective rate of group C was evidently higher than that of group A and group B. The vascular elasticity coefficient and stiffness coefficient in group C were significantly lower than those in group A and group B, and the arterial compliance in group C was significantly higher than that in group A and group B (P < 0.05). The levels of MAP and PVRI in group C were significantly higher than those in group A and B, and the levels of CI, CVP and HR in group C were significantly lower than those in group A and group B (P < 0.05). Norepinephrine elicited greater effects in terms of improving hemodynamic indexes, vascular elasticity and reducing the level of inflammatory factors compared with dopamine and dobutamine in elderly patients harboring sepsis.

Light Runs Across Iron Catalysts in Organic Transformations.

Over the past decades, organometallic complexes with precious elements, such as ruthenium and iridium, are widely used as visible-light photoredox catalysts. Recently, more and more complexes based on earth-abundant and inexpensive elements have been used as sensitizers in photochemistry. Although the photoexcited state lifetimes of iron complexes are typically shorter than those of traditional photosensitizers, the utilization of iron catalysts in photochemistry has sprung up owing to their abundance, low price, nontoxicity, and novel properties, including exhibiting ligand to metal charge transfer states. This concept focuses on recent advances in light-driven iron catalysis in organic transformations, including iron/photoredox dual catalysis, light-induced iron photoredox catalysis and light-induced generation of active iron catalysts. The prospect for the future of this field is also discussed.

Environmental and management controls of soil carbon storage in grasslands of southwestern China.

In order to predict the effects of climate change on the global carbon cycle, it is crucial to understand the environmental factors that affect soil carbon storage in grasslands. In the present study, we attempted to explain the relationships between the distribution of soil carbon storage with climate, soil types, soil properties and topographical factors across different types of grasslands with different grazing regimes. We measured soil organic carbon in 92 locations at different soil depth increments, from 0 to 100 cm in southwestern China. Among soil types, brown earth soils (Luvisols) had the highest carbon storage with 19.5 ±â€¯2.5 kg m-2, while chernozem soils had the lowest with 6.8 ±â€¯1.2 kg m-2. Mean annual temperature and precipitation, exerted a significant, but, contrasting effects on soil carbon storage. Soil carbon storage increased as mean annual temperature decreased and as mean annual precipitation increased. Across different grassland types, the mean carbon storage for the top 100 cm varied from 7.6 ±â€¯1.3 kg m-2 for temperate desert to 17.3 ±â€¯2.9 kg m-2 for alpine meadow. Grazing/cutting regimes significantly affected soil carbon storage with lowest value (7.9 ±â€¯1.5 kg m-2) recorded for cutting grass, while seasonal (11.4 ±â€¯1.3 kg m-2) and year-long (12.2 ±â€¯1.9 kg m-2) grazing increased carbon storage. The highest carbon storage was found in the completely ungrazed areas (16.7 ±â€¯2.9 kg m-2). Climatic factors, along with soil types and topographical factors, controlled soil carbon density along a soil depth in grasslands. Environmental factors alone explained about 60% of the total variation in soil carbon storage. The actual depth-wise distribution of soil carbon contents was significantly influenced by the grazing intensity and topographical factors. Overall, policy-makers should focus on reducing the grazing intensity and land conversion for the sustainable management of grasslands and C sequestration.

Visible-Light-Driven External-Reductant-Free Cross-Electrophile Couplings of Tetraalkyl Ammonium Salts.

Cross-electrophile couplings between two electrophiles are powerful and economic methods to generate C-C bonds in the presence of stoichiometric external reductants. Herein, we report a novel strategy to realize the first external-reductant-free cross-electrophile coupling via visible-light photoredox catalysis. A variety of tetraalkyl ammonium salts, bearing primary, secondary, and tertiary C-N bonds, undergo selective couplings with aldehydes/ketone and CO2. Notably, the in situ generated byproduct, trimethylamine, is efficiently utilized as the electron donor. Moreover, this protocol exhibits mild reaction conditions, low catalyst loading, broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, and facile scalability. Mechanistic studies indicate that benzyl radicals and anions might be generated as the key intermediates via photocatalysis, providing a new direction for cross-electrophile couplings.

Comparison of infrared canopy temperature in a rubber plantation and tropical rain forest.

Canopy temperature is a result of the canopy energy balance and is driven by climate conditions, plant architecture, and plant-controlled transpiration. Here, we evaluated canopy temperature in a rubber plantation (RP) and tropical rainforest (TR) in Xishuangbanna, southwestern China. An infrared temperature sensor was installed at each site to measure canopy temperature. In the dry season, the maximum differences (Tc - Ta) between canopy temperature (Tc) and air temperature (Ta) in the RP and TR were 2.6 and 0.1 K, respectively. In the rainy season, the maximum (Tc - Ta) values in the RP and TR were 1.0 and -1.1 K, respectively. There were consistent differences between the two forests, with the RP having higher (Tc - Ta) than the TR throughout the entire year. Infrared measurements of Tc can be used to calculate canopy stomatal conductance in both forests. The difference in (Tc - Ta) at three gc levels with increasing direct radiation in the RP was larger than in the TR, indicating that change in (Tc - Ta) in the RP was relatively sensitive to the degree of stomatal closure.

Visible-Light-Driven Iron-Promoted Thiocarboxylation of Styrenes and Acrylates with CO2.

The first thiocarboxylation of styrenes and acrylates with CO2 was realized by using visible light as a driving force and catalytic iron salts as promoters. A variety of important ß-thioacids were obtained in high yields. This multicomponent reaction proceeds in an atom- and redox-economical manner with broad substrate scope under mild reaction conditions. Notably, high regio-, chemo-, and diasteroselectivity are observed. Mechanistic studies indicate that a radical pathway can account for the unusual regioselectivity.

Visible-Light-Driven Palladium-Catalyzed Radical Alkylation of C-H Bonds with Unactivated Alkyl Bromides.

Reported herein is a novel visible-light photoredox system with Pd(PPh3 )4 as the sole catalyst for the realization of the first direct cross-coupling of C(sp3 )-H bonds in N-aryl tetrahydroisoquinolines with unactivated alkyl bromides. Moreover, intra- and intermolecular alkylations of heteroarenes were also developed under mild reaction conditions. A variety of tertiary, secondary, and primary alkyl bromides undergo reaction to generate C(sp3 )-C(sp3 ) and C(sp2 )-C(sp3 ) bonds in moderate to excellent yields. These redox-neutral reactions feature broad substrate scope (>60 examples), good functional-group tolerance, and facile generation of quaternary centers. Mechanistic studies indicate that the simple palladium complex acts as the visible-light photocatalyst and radicals are involved in the process.

Five-Year Progression of Refractive Errors and Incidence of Myopia in School-Aged Children in Western China.

BACKGROUND: To determine the change in refractive error and the incidence of myopia among school-aged children in the Yongchuan District of Chongqing City, Western China. METHODS: A population-based cross-sectional survey was initially conducted in 2006 among 3070 children aged 6 to 15 years. A longitudinal follow-up study was then conducted 5 years later between November 2011 and March 2012. Refractive error was measured under cycloplegia with autorefraction. Age, sex, and baseline refractive error were evaluated as risk factors for progression of refractive error and incidence of myopia. RESULTS: Longitudinal data were available for 1858 children (60.5%). The cumulative mean change in refractive error was -2.21 (standard deviation [SD], 1.87) diopters (D) for the entire study population, with an annual progression of refraction in a myopic direction of -0.43 D. Myopic progression of refractive error was associated with younger age, female sex, and higher myopic or hyperopic refractive error at baseline. The cumulative incidence of myopia, defined as a spherical equivalent refractive error of -0.50 D or more, among initial emmetropes and hyperopes was 54.9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 45.2%-63.5%), with an annual incidence of 10.6% (95% CI, 8.7%-13.1%). Myopia was found more likely to happen in female and older children. CONCLUSIONS: In Western China, both myopic progression and incidence of myopia were higher than those of children from most other locations in China and from the European Caucasian population. Compared with a previous study in China, there was a relative increase in annual myopia progression and annual myopia incidence, a finding which is consistent with the increasing trend on prevalence of myopia in China.

Selective Oxytrifluoromethylation of Allylamines with CO2.

Reported is the first oxy-trifluoromethylation of allylamines with carbon dioxide (CO2 ) using copper catalysis, thus leading to important CF3 -containing 2-oxazolidones. It is also the first time CO2 , a nontoxic and easily available greenhouse gas, has been used to tune the difunctionalization of alkenes from amino- to oxy-trifluoromethylation. Of particular note, this multicomponent reaction is highly chemo-, regio-, and diastereoselective under redox-neutral and mild reaction conditions. Moreover, these reactions feature good functional-group tolerance, broad substrate scope, easy scalability and facile product diversification. The important products could also be formed with either spirocycles or two adjacent tetrasubstituted carbon centers.

Interpersonal Sensitivity and Subjective Well-Being of Migrant Workers' Accompanying Children: Role of Perception of Exclusion and Peer Support.

Introduction: To investigate the impact of interpersonal sensitivity on the subjective well-being of accompanying children of migrant workers and the role of perception of exclusion and peer support in the process. Methods: A questionnaire survey was conducted among 304 migrant workers' accompanying children and 501 urban children in grades 4-9 in seven schools in Jiangxi Province, China. Hierarchical regression and bootstrap analysis were used. Results: Interpersonal sensitivity not only had a significant direct negative effect on the subjective well-being of migrant workers' accompanying children (ß= -0.27, 95% CI = [-0.37, -0.17]), but also had an indirect effect through perception of exclusion (ß= -0.06, 95% CI = [-0.11, -0.03]). Peer support negatively moderated the relationship between interpersonal sensitivity and perception of exclusion (ß= -0.18, 95% CI = [-0.28, -0.08]) and the mediating effect of perceptions of exclusion between interpersonal sensitivity and subjective well-being (ß = 0.06, CI = [0.02, 0.11]). Conclusion: The subjective well-being of migrant children is indeed lower than that of urban children, and one of the most important reasons is their higher interpersonal sensitivity. Interpersonal sensitivity not only directly reduces their subjective well-being, but also reduces it by triggering their perception of exclusion, while peer support can effectively mitigate this negative effect. Therefore, one way to improve the subjective well-being of these children is to reduce their excessive interpersonal sensitivity. Their parents should help them to adapt to urban life, to develop correct professional values and to deal correctly with "occupational stigma", to overcome feelings of inferiority, while communities can create specialized activity centers to provide more social opportunities and psychological counseling services for these children.

Exploring the impact of pericentric inversion of chromosome 9 on fertility in sperm donors.

ABSTRACT: Pericentric inversion of chromosome 9 (inv[9]) is a common chromosomal structural variant, but its impact on clinical outcomes remains debated. The screening criteria of sperm banks are rarely mentioned to individuals with inv(9). In this study, we evaluated the fertility of sperm donors with inv(9) who met eligibility criteria for sperm banks (inv[9]-eligible donors). From March 2004 to May 2022, chromosomal analysis of 16 124 sperm donors at CITIC-Xiangya Human Sperm Bank in Hunan Province (Changsha, China) found that 251 (1.6%) had chromosome variations, with inv(9) being the most prevalent at 1.1%. All 169 inv(9)-eligible donors were contacted to collect fertility outcome data, along with 206 eligible donors without inv(9) as controls. In addition, semen samples from inv(9)-eligible donors and eligible donors underwent assessments of sperm fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), mitochondrial membrane potential, DNA fragmentation index, acrosome integrity, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and sperm morphology. Results showed that inv(9) did not significantly increase reproductive risks overall. Despite detecting ROS level differences, the clinical impact may be insignificant. This study provides new data on the inv(9) population that can serve as a valuable reference for decision-making by sperm banks as well as for genetic counseling and clinical guidance for individuals carrying inv(9) variant.

Biobanking of fresh-frozen human colon tissues: impact of tissue ex-vivo ischemia times and storage periods on RNA quality.

BACKGROUND: Biobanking plays an important role in translational cancer research. The impact of tissue ex-vivo ischemia time and storage period on RNA integrity is not well documented. METHODS: Fresh-frozen colon tissues were collected in Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province in China since 2004. Fifty-one colon cancer tissues with tumor cell content higher than 70 % and matched normal tissues during four storage periods (less than 15 months, 16-20 months, 21-25 months, and 26-40 months) were chosen to detect RNA quality. Fresh colon cancer tissues from 5 patients were cut into pieces and kept at room temperature or on ice for 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 h before snap freezing. RNA integrity was determined by microcapillary electrophoresis by the RNA integrity number (RIN) algorithm. RESULTS: Sixty-seven percent of normal colon tissues and 94 % of colon cancer specimens yielded RNA with a RIN of ≥7. Matched colon cancer and normal tissues showed significant difference in RNA quality. RNA remained stable in colon cancer tissues kept at room temperature and on ice for up to 4 h, and long-term storage of banked colon specimens did not negatively influence RNA quality (RNA with RIN of ≥7 banked less than 15 months, 83 %; 16-20 months, 78 %; 21-25 months, 77 %; 26-40 months, 90 %). CONCLUSIONS: Frozen colon tissues yield high-quality RNA in approximately 80 % of specimens. Ex-vivo ischemia times and storage periods did not adversely affect RNA quality. This study showed that standard operation protocols and the maintenance of high-quality tissue repositories were the keys to translational medicine research.

Impact of Sample Processing and Storage Conditions on RNA Quality of Fresh-Frozen Cancer Tissues.

Background: A biobank is a central resource that supports basic and clinical research. RNA quality of fresh-frozen tissue specimens in the biobank is highly associated with the success of downstream applications. Therefore, it is very important to evaluate the impact of tissue processing and storage conditions on RNA quality. Methods: A total of 238 surgically removed tissue specimens, including esophagus, lung, liver, stomach, colon, and rectal cancer, were used to evaluate RNA quality. Two tissue homogenization methods, manual and TissueLyser, were compared and the impacts of temperature fluctuation, tissue types, storage period, and clinicopathological parameters on RNA quality were analyzed. Results: RNA integrity was not influenced by tissue homogenization methods and tissue types. However, RNA integrity number (RIN) values were significantly correlated with temperature fluctuation. When the power of a -80°C freezer was cut off, RNA integrity of frozen tissues was not significantly affected until the temperature increased to 0°C. When the temperature rose to room temperature and remained for 4 hours, RNA integrity was almost completely destroyed. In addition, various cancer tissues with short-term storage at -80°C (<5 years) or high tumor differentiation had higher RINs. Conclusions: Tissue processing and storage conditions affected RNA quality of fresh-frozen cancer tissues. It is necessary to keep storage temperature stable and keep specimens at ultralow temperatures during homogenization. Also, for a biobank containing multiple types of cancer tissue samples, it is better to store them in liquid nitrogen if the storage duration is more than 5 years.
