Effect of LRRC15 on autophagy in A549 cells.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive, chronic, and irreversible interstitial lung disease with unknown cause. To explore the role and regulatory mechanism of leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 15 (LRRC15) in IPF, bleomycin (BLM)-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mouse and A549 cells were constructed, and the expression of LRRC15 were detected. Then, MTT, GFP-RFP-LC3 dual fluorescent labeling system and Western blotting were used to investigate the effects of LRRC15 on cell activity and autophagy after transfection of siLRRC15, respectively. The results indicated that the expression of LRRC15 was significantly increased after the BLM treatment in mouse lung tissue and A549 cells. The designed and synthesized siLRRC15 followed by transfection into A549 cells resulted in a dramatic reduction in LRRC15 expression and partially restored the cell damage induced by BLM. Moreover, the expression of LC3-II and P62 were up-regulated, the amount of autophagosome were increased by GFP-RFP-LC3 dual fluorescent labeling assay after BLM treatment. Meanwhile, this study also showed that the key autophagy proteins LC3-II, ATG5 and ATG7 were up-regulated, P62 was down-regulated and autophagic flux were enhanced after further treatment of A549 cells with siLRRC15. The above findings suggest that LRRC15 is an indicator of epithelial cell damage and may participate in the regulation of fibrosis through autophagy mechanism in IPF. This study provides necessary theoretical basis for further elucidating the mechanism of IPF.

Identification critical host factors for Japanese encephalitis virus replication via CRISPR screening of human sgRNA library.

Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is a pathogen with a substantial impact on both livestock and human health. However, the critical host factors in the virus life cycle remain poorly understood. Using a library comprising 123411 small guide RNAs (sgRNAs) targeting 19050 human genes, we conducted a genome-wide clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9-based screen to identify essential genes for JEV replication. By employing knockout or knockdown techniques on genes, we identified eleven human genes crucial for JEV replication, such as prolactin releasing hormone receptor (PRLHR), activating signal cointegrator 1 complex subunit 3 (ASCC3), acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 3 (ACSL3), and others. Notably, we found that PRLHR knockdown blocked the autophagic flux, thereby inhibiting JEV infection. Taken together, these findings provide effective data for studying important host factors of JEV replication and scientific data for selecting antiviral drug targets.

Potassium affects the association between dietary intake of vitamin C and NAFLD among adults in the United States.

INTRODUCTION: Although the association between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and vitamin C has been well studied, the effects of dietary potassium intake on this relationship are still unclear. Thus, this study aimed to determine the effects of dietary potassium intake on the association between vitamin C and NAFLD. METHODS: We performed a cross-sectional learn about with 9443 contributors the usage of 2007-2018 NHANES data. Multiple logistic regression evaluation has been utilized to check out the affiliation of dietary vitamin C intake with NAFLD and advanced hepatic fibrosis (AHF). Subsequently, we plotted a smoothed match curve to visualize the association. Especially, the analysis of AHF was conducted among the NAFLD population. In addition, stratified evaluation used to be developed primarily based on demographic variables to verify the steadiness of the results. Effect amendment by way of dietary potassium intake used to be assessed via interplay checks between vitamin C and NAFLD in the multivariable linear regression. RESULTS: In this cross-sectional study, we found that vitamin C was negatively related to NAFLD and AHF. The relationship between vitamin C and NAFLD was different in the low, middle and high potassium intake groups. Furthermore, potassium intake significantly modified the negative relationship between vitamin C and NAFLD in most of the models. CONCLUSION: Our research showed that potassium and vitamin C have an interactive effect in reducing NAFLD, which may have great importance for clinical medication.

Therapeutic effects and mechanisms of isoxanthohumol on DSS-induced colitis: regulating T cell development, restoring gut microbiota, and improving metabolic disorders.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a severe hazard to human health. Since pathogenesis of UC is still unclear, current therapy for UC treatment is far from optimal. Isoxanthohumol (IXN), a prenylflavonoid from hops and beer, possesses anti-microbial, anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-angiogenic properties. However, the potential effects of IXN on the alleviation of colitis and the action of the mechanism is rarely studied. Here, we found that administration of IXN (60 mg/kg/day, gavage) significantly attenuated dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis, evidenced by reduced DAI scores and histological improvements, as well as suppressed the pro-inflammatory Th17/Th1 cells but promoted the anti-inflammatory Treg cells. Mechanically, oral IXN regulated T cell development, including inhibiting CD4+ T cell proliferation, promoting apoptosis, and regulating Treg/Th17 balance. Furthermore, IXN relieved colitis by restoring gut microbiota disorder and increasing gut microbiota diversity, which was manifested by maintaining the ratio of Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes balance, promoting abundance of Bacteroidetes and Ruminococcus, and suppressing abundance of proteobacteria. At the same time, the untargeted metabolic analysis of serum samples showed that IXN promoted the upregulation of D-( +)-mannose and L-threonine and regulated pyruvate metabolic pathway. Collectively, our findings revealed that IXN could be applied as a functional food component and served as a therapeutic agent for the treatment of UC.

Modularization of Regional Electronic Structure over Defect-Rich CeO2 Rods for Enhancing Photogenerated Charge Transfer and CO2 Activation.

Oxygen vacancy (OV) engineering has been widely applied in different types of metal oxide-based photocatalytic reactions. Our study has shown that the redistributed OVs resulting from voids in CeO2 rods lead to significant differences in the band structure in space. The flat energy band within the highly crystallized bulk region hinders the recombination of photogenerated carrier pairs during the transfer process. The downward curved energy band in the surface region enhances the activation of the absorbents. Therefore, the localization of the band structure through crystal structure regionalization renders V-CeO2 capable of achieving efficient utilization of photogenerated carriers. Practically, the V-CeO2 rod shows a remarkable turnover number of 190.58 µmol g-1 h-1 in CO2 photoreduction, which is ∼9.4 times higher than that of D-CeO2 (20.46 µmol g-1 h-1). The designed modularization structure in our work is expected to provide important inspiration and guidance in coordinating the kinetic behavior of carriers in OV defect-rich photocatalysts.

Altered microbiome of serum exosomes in patients with acute and chronic cholecystitis.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the differences in the microbiota composition of serum exosomes from patients with acute and chronic cholecystitis. METHOD: Exosomes were isolated from the serum of cholecystitis patients through centrifugation and identified and characterized using transmission electron microscopy and nano-flow cytometry. Microbiota analysis was performed using 16S rRNA sequencing. RESULTS: Compared to patients with chronic cholecystitis, those with acute cholecystitis exhibited lower richness and diversity. Beta diversity analysis revealed significant differences in the microbiota composition between patients with acute and chronic cholecystitis. The relative abundance of Proteobacteria was significantly higher in exosomes from patients with acute cholecystitis, whereas Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Firmicutes were significantly more abundant in exosomes from patients with chronic cholecystitis. Furthermore, functional predictions of microbial communities using Tax4Fun analysis revealed significant differences in metabolic pathways such as amino acid metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, and membrane transport between the two patient groups. CONCLUSIONS: This study confirmed the differences in the microbiota composition within serum exosomes of patients with acute and chronic cholecystitis. Serum exosomes could serve as diagnostic indicators for distinguishing acute and chronic cholecystitis.

Bacterial Biohybrids for Invasion of Tumor Cells Promote Antigen Cross-Presentation Through Gap Junction.

Due to inherent differences in cellular composition and metabolic behavior with host cells, tumor-harbored bacteria can discriminatorily affect tumor immune landscape. However, the mechanisms by which intracellular bacteria affect antigen presentation process between tumor cells and antigen-presenting cells (APCs) are largely unknown. The invasion behavior of attenuated Salmonella VNP20009 (VNP) into tumor cells is investigated and an attempt is made to modulate this behavior by modifying positively charged polymers on the surface of VNP. It is found that non-toxic chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) modified VNP (VNP@COS) bolsters the formation of gap junction between tumor cells and APCs by enhancing the ability of VNP to infect tumor cells. On this basis, a bacterial biohybrid is designed to promote in situ antigen cross-presentation through intracellular bacteria induced gap junction. This bacterial biohybrid also enhances the expression of major histocompatibility complex class I molecules on the surface of tumor cells through the incorporation of Mdivi-1 coupled with VNP@COS. This strategic integration serves to heighten the immunogenic exposure of tumor antigens; while, preserving the cytotoxic potency of T cells. A strategy is proposed to precisely controlling the function and local effects of microorganisms within tumors.

[Age-dependent expression of HSP90 in the hippocampus of APP/PS1 mice].

The present study aims to observe the change in expression of heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) along with amyloid-ß (Aß) and phosphorylated Tau (p-Tau) protein levels in the hippocampus tissue of Alzheimer's disease (AD) transgenic animal model with age. APP/PS1 transgenic mice at age of 6-, 9- and 12-month and C57BL/6J mice of the same age were used. The cognitive abilities of these animals were evaluated using a Morris water maze. Western blot or immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expressions of HSP90 and Aß1-42, as well as the phosphorylation levels of Tau protein in the hippocampus. The hsp90 mRNA levels and the morphology and number of cells in the hippocampus were detected with real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Nissl staining, respectively. The results showed that compared with C57BL/6J mice of the same age, HSP90 and hsp90 mRNA expression were decreased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), while Aß1-42 and p-Tau protein levels were increased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01) in the hippocampal tissue of APP/PS1 transgenic mice. Meanwhile, the decrease in HSP90 and hsp90 mRNA expression (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), the increase in Aß1-42 and p-Tau levels (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05) in hippocampal tissue and the reduction in behavioral ability showed a progressive development with the advancing of age in the APP/PS1 transgenic mice. In conclusion, in the hippocampal tissue of APP/PS1 mice, the decrease in HSP90 expression and the increase in Aß1-42 and p-Tau levels together with the decline of their cognitive ability are age-dependent.

Application of PRI-E-a combined learning method in oral and maxillofacial oncology education.

The traditional lecture-based learning (LBL) method is facing great challenges due to its low efficiency and single proceeding form. We designed a PRI-E learning mode that combined and modified problem-based, case-based, and evidence-based learning with a step-by-step approach. We evaluated the practical learning outcomes of using the PRI-E mode by comparing it with traditional lecture-based learning in oral and maxillofacial oncology education. "PRI-E" consists of the first letters of the English words Passion, Research, Innovation, and Education, and it means "the best Education". This prospective randomized controlled trial included 40 participants. We evenly divided the participants into the PRI-E (n = 20) and LBL group (n = 20) based on the entrance test scores. The same staff group designed and then taught the learning content with different group measures. The evaluation included the final test scores and questionnaire assessments. Without affecting the examination results, the PRI-E teaching method was more satisfactory and popular with participants in terms of ability development and classroom participation. Enacting the PRI-E teaching method required more time, but this did not affect its popularity among the participants. Compared with the LBL learning mode, the PRI-E learning mode was more organized and efficient in oral and maxillofacial oncology education without affecting academic performance. This model has a high degree of satisfaction, which is conducive to training students' comprehensive ability.

Utility of paired plasma and drainage fluid mNGS in diagnosing acute intra-abdominal infections with sepsis.

BACKGROUND: Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) has been increasingly applied in sepsis. We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic and therapeutic utility of mNGS of paired plasma and peritoneal drainage (PD) fluid samples in comparison to culture-based microbiological tests (CMTs) among critically ill patients with suspected acute intra-abdominal infections (IAIs). METHODS: We conducted a prospective study from October 2021 to December 2022 enrolling septic patients with suspected IAIs (n = 111). Pairwise CMTs and mNGS of plasma and PD fluid were sent for pathogen detection. The mNGS group underwent therapeutic regimen adjustment based on mNGS results for better treatment. The microbial community structure, clinical features, antibiotic use and prognoses of the patients were analyzed. RESULTS: Higher positivity rates were observed with mNGS versus CMTs for both PD fluid (90.0% vs. 48.3%, p < 0.005) and plasma (76.7% vs. 1.6%, p < 0.005). 90% of enrolled patients had clues of suspected pathogens combining mNGS and CMT methods. Gram-negative pathogens consist of most intra-abdominal pathogens, including a great variety of anaerobes represented by Bacteroides and Clostridium. Patients with matched plasma- and PD-mNGS results had higher mortality and sepsis severity. Reduced usage of carbapenem (30.0% vs. 49.4%, p < 0.05) and duration of anti-MRSA treatment (5.1 ± 3.3 vs. 7.0 ± 8.4 days, p < 0.05) was shown in the mNGS group in our study. CONCLUSIONS: Pairwise plasma and PD fluid mNGS improves microbiological diagnosis compared to CMTs for acute IAI. Combining plasma and PD mNGS could predict poor prognosis. mNGS may enable optimize empirical antibiotic use.

Proteomics study of bone tissue around ameloblastoma and the potential mechanism of CD36 in bone remodelling.

Ameloblastoma (AM) is characterised by local aggressiveness and bone resorption. To our knowledge, the proteomic profile of bone adjacent to AM has not previously been explored. We therefore looked at the differential proteins in cancellous bone (CB) adjacent to AM and normal CB from the mandible. CB proteins were extracted, purified, quantified, and analysed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) using samples from five patients with AM. These proteins were further investigated using gene ontology for additional functional annotation and enrichment. Proteins that met the screening requirements of expression difference ploidy > 1.5-fold (upregulation and downregulation) and p < 0.05 were subsequently deemed differential proteins. Immunohistochemical staining was performed to confirm the above findings. Compared with normal mandibular CB, 151 differential proteins were identified in CB adjacent to the mandibular AM. These were mainly linked to cellular catabolic processes, lipid metabolism, and fatty acids (FA) metabolism. LC-MS and immunohistochemistry showed that CD36 was one of the notably decreased proteins in CB bordering the AM compared with normal mandibular CB (p = 0.0066 and p = 0.0095, respectively). CD36 expression in CB correlates with bone remodelling in AM, making CD36 a viable target for therapeutic approaches.

Pancreas-directed AAV8-hSPINK1 gene therapy safely and effectively protects against pancreatitis in mice.

OBJECTIVE: Currently, there is no cure for chronic pancreatitis (CP). Germline loss-of-function variants in SPINK1 (encoding trypsin inhibitor) are common in patients with CP and are associated with acute attacks and progression of the disease. This preclinical study was conducted to explore the potential of adeno-associated virus type 8 (AAV8)-mediated overexpression of human SPINK1 (hSPINK1) for pancreatitis therapy in mice. DESIGN: A capsid-optimised AAV8-mediated hSPINK1 expression vector (AAV8-hSPINK1) to target the pancreas was constructed. Mice were treated with AAV8-hSPINK1 by intraperitoneal injection. Pancreatic transduction efficiency and safety of AAV8-hSPINK1 were dynamically evaluated in infected mice. The effectiveness of AAV8-hSPINK1 on pancreatitis prevention and treatment was studied in three mouse models (caerulein-induced pancreatitis, pancreatic duct ligation and Spink1 c.194+2T>C mouse models). RESULTS: The constructed AAV8-hSPINK1 vector specifically and safely targeted the pancreas, had low organ tropism for the heart, lungs, spleen, liver and kidneys and had a high transduction efficiency (the optimal expression dose was 2×1011 vg/animal). The expression and efficacy of hSPINK1 peaked at 4 weeks after injection and remained at significant level for up to at least 8 weeks. In all three mouse models, a single dose of AAV8-hSPINK1 before disease onset significantly alleviated the severity of pancreatitis, reduced the progression of fibrosis, decreased the levels of apoptosis and autophagy in the pancreas and accelerated the pancreatitis recovery process. CONCLUSION: One-time injection of AAV8-hSPINK1 safely targets the pancreas with high transduction efficiency and effectively ameliorates pancreatitis phenotypes in mice. This approach is promising for the prevention and treatment of CP.

Efficacy and safety of different chemotherapy regimens combined with thalidomide in the treatment of diagnosed HIV-associated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

Objective: To investigate the short-term efficacy and safety of different chemotherapy regimens combined with thalidomide, in the treatment of low-income patients with newly diagnosed HIV-associated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 42 patients with HIV-DLBCL who were admitted to the Infectious Diseases Department of Yunnan Provincial Infectious Diseases Hospital from January 2018 to December 2020. 14 cases (including 1 case in stage II and 13 cases in stage III/IV) were treated with R-CHOP, 24 cases (including 1 case in stage II and 23 cases in stage III/IV) were treated with R-DAEPOCH, and 4 cases (including 1 case in stage II and 3 cases in stage III/IV) were treated with EPOCH. All patients were treated with thalidomide. The ART regimen was adjusted. At least 1 and up to 6 intrathecal injections were given during chemotherapy, and cotrimoxazole was taken orally to prevent infection. The clinical efficacy was evaluated after 4 cycles of chemotherapy, and adverse events were evaluated at each cycle of chemotherapy. Results: All patients received 1-8 cycles of chemotherapy. CR (64.2 %) was achieved in 9 patients in R-CHOP group, and 5 patients died. In the R-DAEPOCH group, 17 patients achieved CR (70.8 %) and 7 died. In the EPOCH group, 2 patients reached CR (50 %) and 2 died. The main adverse reactions were grade II and above myelosuppression. Conclusion: Combined treatment with thalidomide can improve the prognosis of low-income patients with newly diagnosed HIV-DLBCL.

Exploiting BRAF mutations in the therapeutic approach towards oral and maxillofacial tumors.

Oral and maxillofacial tumors pose a significant clinical challenge due to their tendency to recur, despite advancements in surgical removal techniques. The jaw's intricate structure further complicates treatments and affects patient quality of life. Consequently, emphasis has shifted towards pharmacological interventions, to potentially reduce invasive surgical procedures. One promising approach targets BRAF mutations, specifically the common V600E mutation. BRAF, a critical protein kinase, regulates cell growth and differentiation via the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK-MAP kinase pathway. A specific nucleotide change at position 1799, swapping Thymine (T) for Adenine (A), results in the V600E mutation, causing unchecked cell growth. This mutation is common in certain oral and maxillofacial tumors like ameloblastoma. A recent neoadjuvant therapy targeting BRAF, involving the use of dabrafenib and trametinib, has showcased a promising, safe, and effective strategy for organ preservation in the treatment of mandibular ameloblastoma. This convergence of molecular insights and targeted therapies holds the key to managing BRAF-mutated oral and maxillofacial tumors effectively, promising improved patient outcomes.

Impact of Immunosuppressed Status on Prognosis of Carbapenem-Resistant Organisms Bloodstream Infections.

INTRODUCTION: The impact of immunosuppression on prognosis of carbapenem-resistant organism (CRO) bloodstream infection (BSI) remains unclear. The aim of this study was to clarify the relationship between immunosuppression and mortality of CRO-BSI and to identify the risk factors associated with mortality in immunosuppressed patients. METHODS: This retrospective study included 279 patients with CRO-BSI from January 2018 to March 2023. Clinical characteristics and outcomes were compared between the immunosuppressed and immunocompetent patients. The relationship between immunosuppression and 30-day mortality after BSI onset was assessed through logistic-regression analysis, propensity score matching (PSM) and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW). Factors associated with mortality in immunosuppressed patients were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: A total of 88 immunocompetent and 191 immunosuppressed patients were included, with 30-day all-cause mortality of 58.8%. Although the 30-day mortality in immunosuppressed patients was significantly higher than in immunocompetent patients (46.6% vs. 64.4%, P = 0.007), immunosuppression was not an independent risk factor for mortality in multivariate logistic regression analysis (odds ratio [OR] 3.53, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.74-18.89; P = 0.123), PSM (OR 1.38, 95% CI 0.60-3.18; P = 0.449,) or IPTW (OR 1.40, 95% CI 0.58-3.36; P = 0.447). For patients with CRO-BSI, regardless of immune status, appropriate antibiotic therapy was associated with decreased 30-day mortality, while Charlson comorbidity index (CCI), intensive care unit (ICU)-acquired infection and thrombocytopenia at CRO-BSI onset were associated with increased mortality. CONCLUSION: Despite the high mortality rate of CRO-BSI, immunosuppression did not affect the mortality. Appropriate antibiotic therapy is crucial for improving the prognosis of CRO-BSI, regardless of the immune status.

DNA methylation clocks for estimating biological age in Chinese cohorts.

Epigenetic clocks are accurate predictors of human chronological age based on the analysis of DNA methylation at specific CpG sites. However, available DNA methylation (DNAm) age predictors are based on datasets with limited ethnic representation. Moreover, a systematic comparison between DNAm data and other omics datasets has not yet been performed. To address these knowledge gaps, we generated and analyzed DNA methylation datasets from two independent Chinese cohorts, revealing age-related DNAm changes. Additionally, a DNA methylation (DNAm) aging clock (iCAS-DNAmAge) and a group of DNAm-based multi-modal clocks for Chinese individuals were developed, with most of them demonstrating strong predictive capabilities for chronological age. The clocks were further employed to predict factors influencing aging rates. The DNAm aging clock, derived from multi-modal aging features (compositeAge-DNAmAge), exhibited a close association with multi-omics changes, lifestyles, and disease status, underscoring its robust potential for precise biological age assessment. Our findings offer novel insights into the regulatory mechanism of age-related DNAm changes and extend the application of the DNAm clock for measuring biological age and aging pace, providing basis for evaluating aging intervention strategies.

DEHP induces apoptosis and autophagy of the thyroid via Rap1 signaling pathway: In vivo and in vitro study.

OBJECTIVE: DEHP has thyroid toxicity and affects thyroid function. However, the mechanism is unclear. METHODS: The offspring of SD rats were gavaged with different doses of DEHP from in utero to 8 or 12 weeks old. We observed the thyroid morphology with HE and autophagosomes with TEM. The THs levels were tested with ELISA. The apoptosis level was tested by flow cytometry. The levels of apoptosis-related genes, autophagy-related genes and Rap1 pathway genes, were measured with qRT-PCR and Western blot. We established an MEHP-treated Nthy-ori 3-1 cell model and inhibited the Rap1 to verify the mechanism. RESULTS: DEHP could cause pathological damage and ultrastructure damage of thyroids in offspring rats. After DEHP exposure, the THs levels were altered, the apoptosis levels increased, and autophagosomes appeared. DEHP significantly affected the levels of apoptosis-related genes and autophagy-related genes. DEHP also affected the levels of Rap1 pathway, which was correlated with the levels of apoptosis and autophagy. After inhibiting Rap1 in Nthy-ori 3-1 cells, the THs levels were altered. Rap1 pathway was inhibited and the levels of apoptosis and autophagy were down-regulated. CONCLUSION: DEHP could induce the apoptosis and autophagy of the thyroid, and Rap1 signaling pathway may play a significant role.

Multi-modal molecular determinants of clinically relevant osteoporosis subtypes.

Due to a rapidly aging global population, osteoporosis and the associated risk of bone fractures have become a wide-spread public health problem. However, osteoporosis is very heterogeneous, and the existing standard diagnostic measure is not sufficient to accurately identify all patients at risk of osteoporotic fractures and to guide therapy. Here, we constructed the first prospective multi-omics atlas of the largest osteoporosis cohort to date (longitudinal data from 366 participants at three time points), and also implemented an explainable data-intensive analysis framework (DLSF: Deep Latent Space Fusion) for an omnigenic model based on a multi-modal approach that can capture the multi-modal molecular signatures (M3S) as explicit functional representations of hidden genotypes. Accordingly, through DLSF, we identified two subtypes of the osteoporosis population in Chinese individuals with corresponding molecular phenotypes, i.e., clinical intervention relevant subtypes (CISs), in which bone mineral density benefits response to calcium supplements in 2-year follow-up samples. Many snpGenes associated with these molecular phenotypes reveal diverse candidate biological mechanisms underlying osteoporosis, with xQTL preferences of osteoporosis and its subtypes indicating an omnigenic effect on different biological domains. Finally, these two subtypes were found to have different relevance to prior fracture and different fracture risk according to 4-year follow-up data. Thus, in clinical application, M3S could help us further develop improved diagnostic and treatment strategies for osteoporosis and identify a new composite index for fracture prediction, which were remarkably validated in an independent cohort (166 participants).
