RESUMO

As of 2022, China's rural sewage treatment rate is only approximately 31 %. Rapid rural development has led to higher demand. However, China's rural areas are complex and face many problems, such as uneven economic development, population distribution, and water availability. Long-lasting and low-cost wastewater treatment measures are needed for application in rural areas. The quantity and quality of rural domestic wastewater in China were characterized first. Next, the hot topic of domestic wastewater in Chinese villages was confirmed via bibliometric analysis using CiteSpace, and the treatment technologies for rural domestic wastewater were compared. Specifically, the technical status and challenges of the most common technology in rural domestic wastewater treatment, constructed wetlands, were summarized.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To compare amino acid metabolism patterns between HPV-positive and HPV-negative head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients and identify key genes for a prognostic model. DESIGN: Utilizing the Cancer Genome Atlas dataset, we analyzed amino acid metabolism genes, differentiated genes between HPV statuses, and selected key genes via LASSO regression for the prognostic model. The model's gene expression was verified through immunohistochemistry in clinical samples. Functional enrichment and CIBERSORTx analyses explored biological functions, molecular mechanisms, and immune cell correlations. The model's prognostic capability was assessed using nomograms, calibration, and decision curve analysis. RESULTS: We identified 1157 key genes associated with amino acid metabolism in HNSCC and HPV status. The prognostic model, featuring genes like IQCN, SLC22A1, SYT12, and TLX3, highlighted functions in development, metabolism, and pathways related to receptors and enzymes. It significantly correlated with immune cell infiltration and outperformed traditional staging in prognosis prediction, despite immunohistochemistry results showing limited clinical identification of HPV-related HNSCC. CONCLUSIONS: Distinct amino acid metabolism patterns differentiate HPV-positive from negative HNSCC patients, underscoring the prognostic model's utility in predicting outcomes and guiding therapeutic strategies.

RESUMO

A new fault diagnosis approach based on bearing current signals is proposed in this paper. First, in view of strong background noise of the current signal, the variational modal decomposition method is applied to decompose the bearing current signal to obtain multiple intrinsic mode functions, and then the intrinsic mode functions are constructed as the input feature vector according to the kurtosis. Second, to avoid the influence of random forest parameters on the random forest classifier, a random forest faulty bearing diagnostic model optimized by the whale algorithm is established. Finally, the accuracy rate and confusion matrix are adopted to evaluate the prediction effects of both established and traditional models. The classification accuracy of the real damaged bearing fault type can reach 95.11%. The fault diagnosis accuracy of manually damaged bearings can reach 93.83%. The results show that the method proposed in this paper has high accuracy and good generalization ability for bearing fault diagnosis.

RESUMO

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the predominant type of oral cancer, while some patients may develop oral multiple primary cancers (MPCs) with unclear etiology. This study aimed to investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and genomic alterations of oral MPCs. Clinicopathological data from patients with oral single primary carcinoma (SPC, n = 202) and oral MPCs (n = 34) were collected and compared. Copy number alteration (CNA) analysis was conducted to identify chromosomal-instability differences among oral MPCs, recurrent OSCC cases, and OSCC patients with lymph node metastasis. Whole-exome sequencing was employed to identify potential unique gene mutations in oral MPCs patients. Additionally, CNA and phylogenetic tree analyses were used to gain preliminary insights into the molecular characteristics of different primary tumors within individual patients. Our findings revealed that, in contrast to oral SPC, females predominated the oral MPCs (70.59%), while smoking and alcohol use were not frequent in MPCs. Moreover, long-term survival outcomes were poorer in oral MPCs. From a CNA perspective, no significant differences were observed between oral MPCs patients and those with recurrence and lymph node metastasis. In addition to commonly mutated genes such as CASP8, TP53 and MUC16, in oral MPCs we also detected relatively rare mutations, such as HS3ST6 and RFPL4A. Furthermore, this study also demonstrated that most MPCs patients exhibited similarities in certain genomic regions within individuals, and distinct differences of the similarity degree were observed between synchronous and metachronous oral MPCs.

RESUMO

Odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is a common jaw cyst with a high recurrence rate. OKC combined with basal cell carcinoma as well as skeletal and other developmental abnormalities is thought to be associated with Gorlin syndrome. Moreover, OKC needs to be differentiated from orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst and other jaw cysts. Because of the different prognosis, differential diagnosis of several cysts can contribute to clinical management. We collected 519 cases, comprising a total of 2 157 hematoxylin and eosin-stained images, to develop digital pathology-based artificial intelligence (AI) models for the diagnosis and prognosis of OKC. The Inception_v3 neural network was utilized to train and test models developed from patch-level images. Finally, whole slide image-level AI models were developed by integrating deep learning-generated pathology features with several machine learning algorithms. The AI models showed great performance in the diagnosis (AUC = 0.935, 95% CI: 0.898-0.973) and prognosis (AUC = 0.840, 95%CI: 0.751-0.930) of OKC. The advantages of multiple slides model for integrating of histopathological information are demonstrated through a comparison with the single slide model. Furthermore, the study investigates the correlation between AI features generated by deep learning and pathological findings, highlighting the interpretative potential of AI models in the pathology. Here, we have developed the robust diagnostic and prognostic models for OKC. The AI model that is based on digital pathology shows promise potential for applications in odontogenic diseases of the jaw.

RESUMO

The influence of frying times (0, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 min) on the continuous changes in the water distribution and the concentrations of key volatile compounds in chicken breast during the frying process were studied. The fried chicken samples could be distinguished by PCA of E-nose and PLS-DA of GC-MS. A total of 40 volatile compounds were identified by GC-MS, and 28 compounds were verified to be the key compounds after further screening by OAVs. The T22 was increased first and then decreased, while the M22 and M23 in fried chicken were considerably decreased and increased with increasing frying time, respectively. The content of the water and the total peak area of LF-NMR in fried chicken samples during the frying process significantly decreased, and the water was transferred from high to low degrees of freedom. In addition, water content, T21, T22, M22 and L* value were positively correlated with most alcohols and aldehydes, and were negatively correlated with pyrazines, while a*, b*, M23 and all amino acids were positively correlated with pyrazines and were negatively correlated with most alcohols and aldehydes. The results may guide the production processes of fried chicken and help produce high-quality chicken products.

RESUMO

Objective: To explore the clinical manifestations of glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65) antibody-positive patients with extraocular symptoms and the possible mechanism. Method: Assays for the presence of GAD65 antibodies were performed on patients' serum and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF). The brain and ocular structures involved in eye movement were assessed via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Tests such as electromyography (EMG), particularly repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS), and neostigmine tests were utilized for differential diagnosis. Additionally, the interaction of GAD65 antibodies with muscle tissue was confirmed using immunofluorescence techniques. Result: Each patient exhibited symptoms akin to extraocular myasthenia gravis (MG), with two individuals reporting diplopia and two experiencing ptosis. GAD65 antibodies were detected in either the serum or CSF, which were shown to bind with monkey cerebellum slides and mouse muscle slides. Neuroimaging of the brain and extraocular muscles via MRI showed no abnormalities, and all patients tested negative for the neostigmine test, RNS via EMG, and the presence of MG antibodies. However, thyroid-related antibodies were found to be abnormal in four of the patients. Conclusion: Our results showed that GAD65 antibodies are not only associated with encephalitis, cerebellum ataxia or stiff-person syndrome caused by the decrease of GABAergic transmission but also diplopia and ptosis. Therefore, we should pay more attention to extraocular muscle paralysis patients without pathogenic antibodies directed against the components of neuromuscular junctions.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: This study explored associations between histological features of dysplasia and malignant transformation, as well as genomic copy number alterations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Overall, 201 samples were collected from patients of oral leukoplakia. The associations of dysplastic features with malignant transformation and copy number alterations were investigated by Cox proportional hazards regression analysis and the Mann-Whitney U-test. RESULTS: Eight individual histological features, such as irregular epithelial stratification (p = 0.001), mitoses high in epithelium (p = 0.033), extension of changes along minor gland ducts (p < 0.001), etc., were associated with greater risk of malignant transformation. A model including histological features and age showed good performance for predicting malignant transformation (area under receiver operating characteristic curve: 0.806). Irregular epithelial stratification (p = 0.007), abnormal nuclear shape (p = 0.005), abnormal cell size (p = 0.004), etc. were associated with greater genomic instability. CONCLUSIONS: A Cox proportional hazards model using eight histological features and patient age reliably predicted the malignant potential of oral epithelial dysplasia. Identification of these histological features closely related to malignant transformation may aid the management of oral potentially malignant disorders and early detection of oral squamous cell carcinoma.

RESUMO

Background/purpose: Cancer is an important part of the global burden of childhood diseases. Head and neck carcinoma in children is rare and related research is limited. This study aimed to investigate the clinicopathological features of childhood head and neck carcinoma. Materials and methods: Forty-two cases of childhood head and neck carcinoma treated in our institution were reviewed and analyzed. Results: Median age overall was 11 years. Twenty-three patients (54.8%) were male and 19 (45.2%) were female. Parotid gland location was most common (54.8%). Mucoepidermoid carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma were the most common histological types (57.1% and 11.9%, respectively). Two patients had a history of bone marrow transplantation and two had a history of odontogenic keratocyst. The recurrence rate after treatment was 8.6%. Conclusion: Early diagnosis and treatment and close follow-up of childhood head and neck carcinoma are warranted to prevent recurrence and improve clinical outcome.

RESUMO

Oral leukoplakia is a common precursor lesion of oral squamous cell carcinoma, which indicates a high potential of malignancy. The malignant transformation of oral leukoplakia seriously affects patient survival and quality of life; however, it is difficult to identify oral leukoplakia patients who will develop carcinoma because no biomarker exists to predict malignant transformation for effective clinical management. As a major problem in the field of head and neck pathologies, it is imperative to identify biomarkers of malignant transformation in oral leukoplakia. In this review, we discuss the potential biomarkers of malignant transformation reported in the literature and explore the translational probabilities from bench to bedside. Although no single biomarker has yet been applied in the clinical setting, profiling for genomic instability might be a promising adjunct.

RESUMO

The effects of roasting times (0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 min) on the dynamic changes of the water distribution and key aroma compounds in roasted chicken during the electric roasting process were studied. In total, 36 volatile compounds were further determined by GC-MS and 11 compounds, including 1-octen-3-ol, 1-heptanol, hexanal, decanal, (E)-2-octenal, acetic acid hexyl ester, nonanal, 2-pentylfuran, heptanal, (E, E)-2,4-decadienal and octanal, were confirmed as key aroma compounds. The relaxation time of T22 and T23 was increased first and then decreased, while the M22 and M23 in roasted chicken were decreased and increased with increasing roasting time, respectively. The fluidity of the water in the chicken during the roasting process was decreased, and the water with a high degree of freedom migrated to the water with a low degree of freedom. In addition, the L*, a*, b*, M23 and all amino acids were positively correlated with all the key aroma compounds, while T22, M22 and moisture content were negatively correlated with all the key aroma compounds.

RESUMO

Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is a common type of potentially malignant disorder in the oral cavity. The atrophy of epithelium and fibrosis of the lamina propria and the submucosa are often found on histopathological slides. Epithelial dysplasia, epithelial atrophy, and senescent fibroblasts have been proposed to be associated with the malignant transformation of OSF. However, because of the heterogeneity of potentially malignant oral disorders and oral squamous cell carcinoma, it is difficult to identify the specific molecular mechanisms of malignant transformation in OSF. Here, we present a method to obtain a small number of epithelial or mesenchymal cells carrying morphological data and spatial information by laser capture microdissection on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue slides. Using a microscope, we can precisely capture microscale (~500 cells) dysplastic or atrophic epithelial tissue and fibrotic subepithelial tissue. The extracted cells can be evaluated by genome or transcriptome sequencing to acquire genomic and transcriptomic data with morphological and spatial information. This approach removes the heterogeneity of bulk OSF tissue sequencing and the interference caused by cells in non-lesioned areas, allowing for precise spatial-omics analysis of OSF tissue.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To reveal the mechanisms underlying the epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG)-mediated inhibition of carcinogenesis and the related regulatory signaling pathways. DESIGN: The effect of EGCG on the proliferation of OSCC cells was examined. SuperPred, ChEMBL, Swiss TargetPrediction, DisGeNET, GeneCards, and National Center for Biotechnology Information databases were used to predict the EGCG target genes and oral leukoplakia (OL)-related, oral submucosal fibrosis (OSF)-related, and OSCC-related genes. The binding of EGCG to the target proteins was simulated using AutoDock and PyMOL. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset was subjected to consensus clustering analysis to predict the downstream molecules associated with these targets, as well as their potential functions and pathways. RESULTS: EGCG significantly inhibited OSCC cell proliferation (p < 0.001). By comparing EGCG target genes with genes linked to oral potentially malignant disorder (OPMD) and OSCC, a total of eleven potential EGCG target genes were identified. Furthermore, EGCG has the capacity to bind to eleven proteins. Based on consensus clustering and enrichment analysis, it is suggested that EGCG may hinder the progression of cancer by altering the cell cycle and invasive properties in precancerous lesions of the oral cavity. Some possible strategies for modifying the cell cycle and invasive properties may include EGCG-mediated suppression of specific genes and proteins, which are associated with cancer development. CONCLUSIONS: This study investigated the molecular mechanisms and signaling pathways associated with the EGCG-induced suppression of OSCC. The identification of specific pharmacological targets of EGCG during carcinogenesis is crucial for the development of innovative combination therapies involving EGCG.

RESUMO

Accurate prognostic stratification of oral leukoplakia (OLK) with risk of malignant transformation into oral squamous cell carcinoma is crucial. We developed an objective and powerful pathomics-based model for the prediction of malignant transformation in OLK using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained images. In total, 759 H&E-stained images from multicenter cohorts were included. A training set (n = 489), validation set (n = 196), and testing set (n = 74) were used for model development. Four deep learning methods were used to train and validate the model constructed using H&E-stained images. Pathomics features generated through deep learning combined with machine learning algorithms were used to develop a pathomics-based model. Immunohistochemical staining of Ki67, p53, and PD-L1 was used to interpret the black box of the model. Pathomics-based models predicted the malignant transformation of OLK (validation set area under curve [AUC], 0.899; testing set AUC, 0.813) and significantly identified high-risk and low-risk populations. The prediction performance of malignant transformation from dysplasia grading (validation set AUC, 0.743) was lower than that of the pathomics-based model. The expressions of Ki67, p53, and PD-L1 were correlated with various pathomics features. The pathomics-based model accurately predicted the malignant transformation of OLK and may be useful for the objective and rapid assessment of the prognosis of patients with OLK.

RESUMO

Background/purpose: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a serious disease endangering the health of patients, and the application of immunotherapy in HNSCC is gradually emerging. However, there is no bibliometric analysis in this research field. This study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge structure and research hotspots of immunotherapy for HNSCC. Materials and methods: Publications related to immunotherapy for HNSCC from 2002 to 2021 were searched in the Web of Science Core Collection database. The software VOSviewers, CiteSpace, and the R package 'bibliometrix' were used to perform this bibliometric analysis. Results: A total of 1297 publications were from 63 countries, led by the USA and China. The number of publications related to immunotherapy for HNSCC has increased rapidly from 2015. University of Pittsburgh and The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center are the main research institutions. Oral Oncology is the most popular journal in this field, and the Journal of Clinical Oncology is the most highly co-cited journal. These publications were from 7569 authors, with Robert L. Ferris publishing the most papers and being the most frequently co-cited. Clinical trials related to nivolumab and pembrolizumab have attracted wide attention. 'Immune checkpoint inhibitors', 'human papillomavirus', 'programmed cell death-ligand 1', and 'programmed cell death protein 1' are the main keywords of emerging research hotspots. Conclusion: This study presents a comprehensive summary of the trends and development of immunotherapy for HNSCC, identifies the research frontier and hotspot direction, and could provide a valuable reference for researchers in this field.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Oral leukoplakia concomitant with oral submucous fibrosis is a high-risk oral potentially malignant disorder, but little is known about its immune microenvironment. METHODS: Thirty samples of oral leukoplakia concomitant with oral submucous fibrosis, 30 oral leukoplakia samples, and 30 oral submucous fibrosis samples were collected from two hospitals. Immunohistochemistry was performed to analyze expression of T cell biomarkers [CD3, CD4, CD8, and Forkhead box P3 (Foxp3)], a B cell biomarker (CD20), macrophage biomarkers (CD68 and CD163), an immune inhibitory receptor ligand (PD-L1), and Ki-67. RESULTS: The numbers of CD3+ (p < 0.001), CD4+ (p = 0.018), and CD8+ (p = 0.031) cells in oral leukoplakia concomitant with oral submucous fibrosis were less than those in oral leukoplakia. The number of CD4+ cells (p = 0.035) in oral leukoplakia concomitant with oral leukoplakia was higher than that in oral submucous fibrosis. More CD3+ (p < 0.001), CD4+ (p < 0.001), Foxp3+ (p = 0.019), and CD163+ (p = 0.029) cells were found in oral leukoplakia than in oral submucous fibrosis. CONCLUSION: Various levels of immune infiltration were observed among oral leukoplakia concomitant with oral submucous fibrosis, oral leukoplakia, and oral submucous fibrosis. Characterization of the immune microenvironment may contribute to personalized immunotherapy.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To characterize the epidemiological, clinical, and prognostic features of multiple primary cancers (MPC) following oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). DESIGN: Data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program database were analyzed to determine the standardized incidence ratio (SIR) of multiple subsequent sites, difference in clinical and prognostic features between MPC and single primary OSCC. RESULTS: The sites with the highest SIRs were the oral cavity (SIR = 69.48), other oral cavity and pharynx (SIR=55.46), pharynx (SIR=39.21), tonsils (SIR=33.52), trachea (SIR=33.24), esophagus (SIR=18.00), and larynx (SIR=13.12). The 5- and 10-year survival rates for single primary OSCC were 57.9% (95% CI: 56.7-59.2%) and 47.1% (95% CI: 45.7-48.6%), respectively, while those for MPC were 66.9% (95% CI: 64.6-69.4%) and 42.2% (95% CI: 39.5-45.2%), respectively. The mean age of MPC patients was significantly higher than that of single primary OSCC patients. MPC are more common in the gums and other sites of the oral cavity, and more likely to be detected in early TNM stage and pathological grade. Age, site, T-stage, and N-stage were significantly associated with prognosis of MPC. CONCLUSIONS: Significant differences in clinical and prognostic features were found between MPC and single primary OSCC. Considering MPC has a poor long-term prognosis, it is necessary to identify MPC and single primary OSCC early.

RESUMO

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is characterized by poor prognosis and high mortality rates. To date, satisfactory therapeutic approaches for ICH remain limited, so it is urgently needed to develop a safer and more effective prescription. Secondary inflammatory response has been acknowledged as an aggravating factor to neurological deterioration after ICH. As a component of inflammasome sensors, absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2) plays an important role in the neuroinflammation process. Here, ozanimod, a novel selective sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor modulator, has gained much attention, which alleviates the resultant neuroinflammation and improves functional recovery derived from ICH. In this study, ozanimod improved neurological functions of ICH mice via reduction of hematoma size. Furthermore, both microglial and AIM2 inflammasome activations were reversed by ozanimod, which are confirmed by the downregulation of related inflammatory proteins and cytokines (IL-1ß, IL-6, and TNF-α), coupled with the upregulation of SIRT3, by leveraging the Western blot and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Additionally, we find that ozanimod decreases nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) expression. Notably, in vitro cell experiments induced by lipopolysaccharide confirms that the anti-inflammatory effect of ozanimod could be abolished by the SIRT3 inhibitor. In conclusion, these results indicate that ozanimod mitigates ICH-induced secondary inflammatory responses by modulating AIM2 inflammasome mediated by SIRT3/NF-κB/AIM2 pathway. This demonstrates ozanimod orchestrates ICH-induced neuroinflammation and could be a targeted therapy for improving prognosis of ICH.

RESUMO

The aim of the study is to identify key genes during the progression from oral leukoplakia (OL) to oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and predict effective diagnoses. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and differential expression analysis were performed to identify seven genes associated with the progression from OL to OSCC. Twelve machine learning algorithms including k-nearest neighbor (KNN), neural network (NNet), and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) were used to construct multi-gene models, which revealed that each model had good diagnostic efficacy. The functional mechanism or the pathways associated with these genes were evaluated using enrichment analysis, subtype clustering, and immune infiltration analysis. The enrichment analysis revealed that the genes enriched were associated with the cell cycle, cell division, and intracellular energy metabolism. The immunoassay results revealed that the genes primarily affected the infiltration of proliferating T cells and macrophage polarization. Finally, a nomogram and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis were used to predict the prognostic efficacy of key genes in OSCC patients. The results showed that genes could predict the prognosis of the patients, and patients in the high-risk group had a poor prognosis. Our study identified that the seven key genes, including DHX9, BCL2L12, RAD51, MELK, CDC6, ANLN, and KIF4A, were associated with the progression from OL to OSCC. These genes had good diagnostic efficacy and could be used as potential biomarkers for the prognosis of OSCC patients.

RESUMO

The immune response is an important part of secondary brain injury following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and is related to neurological deficits and prognosis. The mechanisms underlying the immune response and inflammation are of great significance for brain injury and potential functional restoration; however, the immune-related biomarkers and competing endogenous ribonucleic acid (RNA) (ceRNA) networks in the peripheral blood of ICH patients have not yet been constructed. We collected the peripheral blood from ICH patients and controls to assess their ceRNA profiles using LCHuman ceRNA microarray, and to verify their expression with qRT-PCR. Two-hundred-eleven DElncRNAs and one-hundred-one DEmRNAs were detected in the ceRNA microarray of ICH patients. The results of functional enrichment analysis showed that the immune response was an important part of the pathological process of ICH. Twelve lncRNAs, ten miRNAs, and seven mRNAs were present in our constructed immune-related ceRNA network, combining weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). Our study was the first to establish the network of the immune-related ceRNAs derived from WGCNA, and to identify leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and B cell lymphoma 2-like 13 (BCL2L13) as pivotal immune-related biomarkers in the peripheral blood of ICH patients, which are likely associated with PI3K-Akt, the MAPK signaling pathway, and oxidative phosphorylation. The MOXD2P-miR-211-3p -LIF and LINC00299-miR-198-BCL2L13 axes were indicated to participate in the immune regulatory mechanism of ICH. The goal of our study was to offer innovative insights into the underlying immune regulatory mechanism and to identify possible immune intervention targets for ICH.
