Antimicrobial resistance prediction by clinical metagenomics in pediatric severe pneumonia patients.

BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major threat to children's health, particularly in respiratory infections. Accurate identification of pathogens and AMR is crucial for targeted antibiotic treatment. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) shows promise in directly detecting microorganisms and resistance genes in clinical samples. However, the accuracy of AMR prediction through mNGS testing needs further investigation for practical clinical decision-making. METHODS: We aimed to evaluate the performance of mNGS in predicting AMR for severe pneumonia in pediatric patients. We conducted a retrospective analysis at a tertiary hospital from May 2022 to May 2023. Simultaneous mNGS and culture were performed on bronchoalveolar lavage fluid samples obtained from pediatric patients with severe pneumonia. By comparing the results of mNGS detection of microorganisms and antibiotic resistance genes with those of culture, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value were calculated. RESULTS: mNGS detected bacterial in 71.7% cases (86/120), significantly higher than culture (58/120, 48.3%). Compared to culture, mNGS demonstrated a sensitivity of 96.6% and a specificity of 51.6% in detecting pathogenic microorganisms. Phenotypic susceptibility testing (PST) of 19 antibiotics revealed significant variations in antibiotics resistance rates among different bacteria. Sensitivity prediction of mNGS for carbapenem resistance was higher than penicillins and cephalosporin (67.74% vs. 28.57%, 46.15%), while specificity showed no significant difference (85.71%, 75.00%, 75.00%). mNGS also showed a high sensitivity of 94.74% in predicting carbapenem resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii. CONCLUSIONS: mNGS exhibits variable predictive performance among different pathogens and antibiotics, indicating its potential as a supplementary tool to conventional PST. However, mNGS currently cannot replace conventional PST.

[Acute heart failure in a neonate]. / æ–°ç”Ÿå„¿æ€¥æ€§å¿ƒåŠŸèƒ½ä¸å ¨1例.

The male patient, one day old, was admitted to the hospital due to hypoglycemia accompanied by apnea appearing six hours after birth. The patient had transient hypoglycemia early after birth, and acute heart failure suddenly occurred on the eighth day after birth. Laboratory tests showed significantly reduced levels of adrenocorticotropic hormone and cortisol, and pituitary magnetic resonance imaging was normal. Genetic testing results showed that the patient had probably pathogenic compound heterozygous mutations of the TBX19 gene (c.917-2A>G+c.608C>T), inherited respectively from the parents. The patient was conclusively diagnosed with congenital isolated adrenocorticotropic hormone deficiency caused by mutation of the TBX19 gene. Upon initiating hydrocortisone replacement therapy, cardiac function rapidly returned to normal. After being discharged, the patient continued with the hydrocortisone replacement therapy. By the 18-month follow-up, the patient was growing and developing well. In neonates, unexplained acute heart failure requires caution for possible endocrine hereditary metabolic diseases, and timely cortisol testing and genetic testing should be conducted.

Hierarchical Self-assembly of Multidimensional Functional Materials from Sequence-defined Peptoids.

Hierarchical self-assembly represents a powerful strategy for the fabrication of functional materials across various length scales. However, achieving precise formation of functional hierarchical assemblies remains a significant challenge and requires a profound understanding of molecular assembly interactions. In this study, we present a molecular-level understanding of the hierarchical assembly of sequence-defined peptoids into multidimensional functional materials, including twisted nanotube bundles serving as a highly efficient artificial light harvesting system. By employing synchrotron-based powder X-ray diffraction and analyzing single crystal structures of model compounds, we elucidated the molecular packing and mechanisms underlying the assembly of peptoids into multidimensional nanostructures. Our findings demonstrate that incorporating aromatic functional groups, such as tetraphenyl ethylene (TPE), at the termini of assembling peptoid sequences promotes the formation of twisted bundles of nanotubes and nanosheets, thus enabling the creation of a highly efficient artificial light harvesting system. This research exemplifies the potential of leveraging sequence-defined synthetic polymers to translate microscopic molecular structures into macroscopic assemblies. It holds promise for the development of functional materials with precisely controlled hierarchical structures and designed functions.

Further evidence is needed to explore the impact of high-altitude environments on the neurologic function of neonates. Non-invasive techniques such as cerebral near-infrared spectroscopy and amplitude-integrated electroencephalography can provide data on cerebral oxygenation and brain electrical activity. This study will conduct multiple cerebral near-infrared spectroscopy and amplitude-integrated electroencephalography monitoring sessions at various time points within the first 3 days postpartum for healthy full-term neonates at different altitudes. The obtained data on cerebral oxygenation and brain electrical activity will be compared between different altitudes, and corresponding reference ranges will be established. The study involves 6 participating centers in the Chinese High Altitude Neonatal Medicine Alliance, with altitude gradients divided into 4 categories: 800 m, 1 900 m, 2 400 m, and 3 500 m, with an anticipated sample size of 170 neonates per altitude gradient. This multicenter prospective cohort study aims to provide evidence supporting the impact of high-altitude environments on early brain function and metabolism in neonates.

Long-term outcomes of intraoperative chemotherapy with 5-FU for colorectal cancer patients receiving curative resection (IOCCRC): a randomized, multicenter, prospective, phase III trial.

BACKGROUND: We aimed to compare combined intraoperative chemotherapy and surgical resection with curative surgical resection alone in colorectal cancer patients. METHODS: We performed a multicenter, open-label, randomized, phase III trial. All eligible patients were randomized and assigned to intraoperative chemotherapy and curative surgical resection or curative surgical resection alone (1:1). Survival actualization after long-term follow-up was performed in patients analyzed on an intention-to-treat basis. RESULTS: From January 2011 to January 2016, 696 colorectal cancer patients were enrolled and randomly assigned to intraoperative chemotherapy and radical surgical resection (n=341) or curative surgical resection alone (n=344). Intraoperative chemotherapy with surgical resection showed no significant survival benefit over surgical resection alone in colorectal cancer patients (3-year DFS: 91.1% vs. 90.0%, P=0.328; 3-year OS: 94.4% vs. 95.9%, P=0.756). However, colon cancer patients benefitted from intraoperative chemotherapy, with a relative 4% reduction in liver and peritoneal metastasis (HR=0.336, 95% CI: 0.148-0.759, P=0.015) and a 6.5% improvement in 3-year DFS (HR=0.579, 95% CI: 0.353-0.949, P=0.032). Meanwhile, patients with colon cancer and abnormal pretreatment CEA levels achieved significant survival benefits from intraoperative chemotherapy (DFS: HR=0.464, 95% CI: 0.233-0.921, P=0.029 and OS: (HR=0.476, 95% CI: 0.223-1.017, P=0.049). CONCLUSIONS: Intraoperative chemotherapy showed no significant extra prognostic benefit in total colorectal cancer patients who underwent radical surgical resection; however, in colon cancer patients with abnormal pretreatment serum CEA levels (> 5 ng/ml), intraoperative chemotherapy could improve long-term survival.

Characteristics of red blood cell transfusion among very preterm infants in China.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: National-level data on the incidence of red blood cell (RBC) transfusions and outcomes among very preterm infants (VPIs) are lacking in China. This study aims to describe the use and variation of RBC transfusion among VPIs in China. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This cohort study was conducted among 70 tertiary hospitals participating in the Chinese Neonatal Network (CHNN) from 2019 to 2020 across China. All VPIs admitted to the CHNN neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) were included. RESULTS: A total of 13,447 VPIs were enrolled, of whom 7026 (52.2%) received ≥1 RBC transfusions. The mean number of transfusions per infant was 2 (interquartile range [IQR] 1-4 times) and the median age at first transfusion was 15 days (IQR 3-27 days). The transfusion rate was higher in critically ill infants compared with non-critically ill infants (70.5% vs. 39.3%). The transfusion rate varied widely (13.5%-95.0%) between different NICUs. The prevalence of death, severe intra-ventricular haemorrhage, necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) or spontaneous intestinal perforation (SIP), sepsis, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and cystic periventricular leukomalacia (cPVL) was significantly higher in the transfused group. Among non-critically ill infants, RBC transfusion was independently associated with BPD, severe ROP and cPVL. CONCLUSION: Our study, providing the first baseline data on RBC transfusions among VPIs in China, shows an alarmingly high RBC transfusion rate with significant site variations. There is an urgent need for national guidelines on RBC transfusions for VPIs in China.

Neolignans with anti-inflammatory activity from Piper kadsura (Choisy) Ohwi.

Two novel neolignans, piperkadsurenin A (1) and kadsurenin N (2), along with six known neolignans (3-8) and two lignans (9-10) were isolated from the stems of Piper kadsura (Choisy) Ohwi. Extensive spectroscopic data interpretation and ECD calculations were used to identify the structures of the new compounds 1 and 2. Especially, compound 1 represents the first example of neolignan with cyclopenta[b]pyran framework. The anti-inflammatory efficacy of compounds 1-10 in vitro was systematically assessed through NO production inhibitory assay. Compounds 3 and 7 significantly inhibited LPS-induced NO generation in RAW 264.7 cells, with IC50 values of 34.29 ± 0.82 and 47.5 ± 5.81 µM, respectively.

CD106 in tumor-specific exhausted CD8+ T cells mediates immunosuppression by inhibiting TCR signaling.

T cell exhaustion is a major contributor to immunosuppression in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Blockade of key regulators of T cell exhaustion, such as PD-1, can reinvigorate tumor-specific T cells and activate anti-tumor immunity in various types of cancer. Here, we identified that CD106 was specifically expressed in exhausted CD8+ T cells in the TME using single-cell RNA-sequencing. High CD106 expression in the TME in clinical samples corresponded to improved response to cancer immunotherapy. CD106 in tumor-specific T cells suppressed anti-tumor immunity both in vitro and in vivo, and loss of CD106 in CD8+ T cells suppressed tumor growth and improved response to PD-1 blockade. Mechanistically, CD106 inhibited T-cell receptor (TCR) signaling by interacting with the TCR/CD3 complex and reducing its surface expression. Together, these findings provide insights into the immunosuppressive role of CD106 expressed in tumor-specific exhausted CD8+ T cells, identifying it as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for cancer immunotherapy.

Genotype and phenotype features and prognostic factors of neonatal-onset pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy: A systematic review.

Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE-ALDH7A1) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder due to a deficiency of α-aminoadipic semialdehyde dehydrogenase. This study aimed to systematically explore genotypic and phenotypic features and prognostic factors of neonatal-onset PDE. A literature search covering PubMed, Elsevier, and Web of Science was conducted from January 2006 to August 2023. We identified 56 eligible studies involving 169 patients and 334 alleles. The c.1279 G>C variant was the most common variant of neonatal-onset PDE (25.7 %). All patients were treated with pyridoxine; forty patients received dietary intervention therapy. 63.9 % of the patients were completely seizure-free; however, 68.6 % of the patients had neurodevelopmental delays. Additionally, homozygous c.1279 G>C variants were significantly associated with ventriculomegaly, abnormal white matter signal, and cysts (P<0.05). In contrast, homozygous c.1364 T>C was associated with clonic seizure (P=0.031). Pyridoxine used immediately at seizure onset was an independent protective factor for developmental delay (P=0.035; odds ratio [OR]: 3.14). Besides, pyridoxine used early in the neonatal period was a protective factor for language delay (P=0.044; OR: 4.59). In contrast, neonatal respiratory distress (P=0.001; OR: 127.44) and abnormal brain magnetic resonance imaging (P=0.049; OR: 3.64) were risk factors. Prenatal movement abnormality (P=0.041; OR: 20.56) and abnormal white matter signal (P=0.012; OR: 24.30) were risk factors for motor delay. Myoclonic seizure (P=0.023; OR: 7.13) and status epilepticus (P=0.000; OR: 9.93) were risk factors for breakthrough seizures. In conclusion, our study indicated that pyridoxine should be started immediately when unexplained neonatal seizures occur and not later than the neonatal period to prevent poor neurodevelopmental outcomes.

Pore Structure and Deformation Correlation of an Aluminum Foam Sandwich Subject to Three-Point Bending.

An Al-Si matrix foam sandwich (AFS) with 6063 Al alloy cover sheets was fabricated by hot rolling combined with melt foaming. A foamable AlSiMg1/SiCp matrix precursor was prepared by the melting route. Hot rolling at 480 °C was carried out to obtain a mechanical bonding interface between the cover sheet and the foamable precursor. Meanwhile, the pore structure of the AFS was deeply affected by the foaming temperature and foaming time during the foaming process. Different pore growth mechanics of the crack-like pore disappearance mechanism (CDM) and pore active expansion mechanism (AEM) were concluded based on the pressure difference in pores inside and outside. Three bending tests were applied to three types of AFSs with different pore structures to evaluate the relation between pore structures and AFS mechanical properties. The bending property of the AFS with fewer layers of pores is like that of a dense material. The bending property of the AFS with a pore size in the range of 0~1 mm presents a typical sandwich shear failure mode. The AFS with a uniform pore structure, in which the shapes of the pores are predominately polygons and the pore diameter is concentrated in the range of 0.5~3 mm, processes a good energy absorption capacity, and the bending stress-strain curve fluctuates greatly after the first stress drop.

PCDHA9 as a candidate gene for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease. To identify additional genetic factors, we analyzed exome sequences in a large cohort of Chinese ALS patients and found a homozygous variant (p.L700P) in PCDHA9 in three unrelated patients. We generated Pcdhα9 mutant mice harboring either orthologous point mutation or deletion mutation. These mice develop progressive spinal motor loss, muscle atrophy, and structural/functional abnormalities of the neuromuscular junction, leading to paralysis and early lethality. TDP-43 pathology is detected in the spinal motor neurons of aged mutant mice. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that Pcdha9 mutation causes aberrant activation of FAK and PYK2 in aging spinal cord, and dramatically reduced NKA-α1 expression in motor neurons. Our single nucleus multi-omics analysis reveals disturbed signaling involved in cell adhesion, ion transport, synapse organization, and neuronal survival in aged mutant mice. Together, our results present PCDHA9 as a potential ALS gene and provide insights into its pathogenesis.

Fast and Ultrasensitive Detection of Monkeypox by a Pyrococcus furiosus Argonaute System Coupled with a Short Amplification.

Monkeypox virus (MPXV), the pathogen responsible for the infectious disease monkeypox, causes lesions on the skin, lymphadenopathy, and fever. It has posed a global public health threat since May 2022. Highly sensitive and specific detection of MPXV is crucial for preventing the spread of the disease. Pyrococcus furiosus Argonaute (PfAgo) is an artificial DNA-guided restriction cleavage enzyme programmable with 5'-phosphorylated ssDNA sequences, which can be developed to specifically detect nucleic acids of pathogens. Here, a PfAgo-based system was established for the detection of MPXV-specific DNA targeting the F3L gene. A short amplicon of 79 bp could be obtained through a fast PCR procedure, which was completed within 45 min. Two 5'-phosphorylation guide DNAs were designed to guide PfAgo to cleave the amplicon to obtain an 18 bp 5'-phosphorylation sequence specific to MPXV, not to other orthopoxviruses (cowpox, variola, and vaccinia viruses). The 18 bp sequence guided PfAgo to cleave a designed probe specific to MPXV to emit fluorescence. With optimized conditions for the PfAgo-MPXV system, it could be completed in 60 min for the detection of the extracted MPXV DNA with the limit of detection (LOD) of 1.1 copies/reaction and did not depend on expensive instruments. Successful application of the PfAgo-MPXV system in sensitively detecting MPXV in simulated throat swabs, skin swabs, sera, and wastewater demonstrated the system's good performance. The PfAgo platform, with high sensitivity and specificity established here, has the potential to prevent the spread of MPXV.

Rapid and sensitive detection of SARS-CoV-2 IgM through luciferase luminescence on an automatic platform.

SARS-CoV-2 has brought a global health crisis worldwide. IgM is an early marker in sera after the infections, and the detection of IgM is crucial to assist diagnosis and evaluate the vaccination clinically. Herein, we developed an automated platform to identify IgM against SARS-CoV-2 in sera. Streptavidin-magnetic beads were utilized to bind to a biotinylated anti-IgM antibody, which was employed to capture IgM in sera. RBD fused luciferase hGluc was employed to label the trapped IgM against RBD and the signal of luminescence of hGluc with the substrate of coelenterazine corresponded to the amount of SARS-CoV-2 IgM conjugated to the magnetic beads. An appropriate cut-off value of the designed method was defined by a set of negative samples and positive samples with 100 % sensitivity and 100 % specificity. Through serial dilution of a positive sample, it was found that the method has a better sensitivity than ELISA. The application to determine IgM against SARS-CoV-2 demonstrated a good performance of the method. The developed system can complete the analysis of SARS-CoV-2 IgM within 25 min. Through the substitution of RBD antigen with antigens of other pathogens in this platform, the automated detection of IgM against the corresponding pathogens can be realized.

Multipattern graph convolutional network-based autism spectrum disorder identification.

The early diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has been extensively facilitated through the utilization of resting-state fMRI (rs-fMRI). With rs-fMRI, the functional brain network (FBN) has gained much attention in diagnosing ASD. As a promising strategy, graph convolutional networks (GCN) provide an attractive approach to simultaneously extract FBN features and facilitate ASD identification, thus replacing the manual feature extraction from FBN. Previous GCN studies primarily emphasized the exploration of topological simultaneously connection weights of the estimated FBNs while only focusing on the single connection pattern. However, this approach fails to exploit the potential complementary information offered by different connection patterns of FBNs, thereby inherently limiting the performance. To enhance the diagnostic performance, we propose a multipattern graph convolution network (MPGCN) that integrates multiple connection patterns to improve the accuracy of ASD diagnosis. As an initial endeavor, we endeavored to integrate information from multiple connection patterns by incorporating multiple graph convolution modules. The effectiveness of the MPGCN approach is evaluated by analyzing rs-fMRI scans from a cohort of 92 subjects sourced from the publicly accessible Autism Brain Imaging Data Exchange database. Notably, the experiment demonstrates that our model achieves an accuracy of 91.1% and an area under ROC curve score of 0.9742. The implementation codes are available at https://github.com/immutableJackz/MPGCN.

Pathogenesis of diabetic complications: Exploring hypoxic niche formation and HIF-1α activation.

Hypoxia is a common feature of diabetic tissues, which highly correlates to the progression of diabetes. The formation of hypoxic context is induced by disrupted oxygen homeostasis that is predominantly driven by vascular remodeling in diabetes. While different types of vascular impairments have been reported, the specific features and underlying mechanisms are yet to be fully understood. Under hypoxic condition, cells upregulate hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), an oxygen sensor that coordinates oxygen concentration and cell metabolism under hypoxic conditions. However, diabetic context exploits this machinery for pathogenic functions. Although HIF-1α protects cells from diabetic insult in multiple tissues, it also jeopardizes cell function in the retina. To gain a deeper understanding of hypoxia in diabetic complications, we focus on the formation of tissue hypoxia and the outcomes of HIF-1α dysregulation under diabetic context. Hopefully, this review can provide a better understanding on hypoxia biology in diabetes.

Stem-like progenitor and terminally differentiated TFH-like CD4+ T cell exhaustion in the tumor microenvironment.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors exert clinical efficacy against various types of cancer through reinvigoration of exhausted CD8+ T cells that attack cancer cells directly in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Using single-cell sequencing and mouse models, we show that CXCL13, highly expressed in tumor-infiltrating exhausted CD8+ T cells, induces CD4+ follicular helper T (TFH) cell infiltration, contributing to anti-tumor immunity. Furthermore, a part of the TFH cells in the TME exhibits cytotoxicity and directly attacks major histocompatibility complex-II-expressing tumors. TFH-like cytotoxic CD4+ T cells have high LAG-3/BLIMP1 and low TCF1 expression without self-renewal ability, whereas non-cytotoxic TFH cells express low LAG-3/BLIMP1 and high TCF1 with self-renewal ability, closely resembling the relationship between terminally differentiated and stem-like progenitor exhaustion in CD8+ T cells, respectively. Our findings provide deep insights into TFH-like CD4+ T cell exhaustion with helper progenitor and cytotoxic differentiated functions, mediating anti-tumor immunity orchestrally with CD8+ T cells.

Whey protein isolate and inulin-glycosylated conjugate affect the physicochemical properties and oxidative stability of pomegranate seed oil emulsion.

Glycosylated protein was obtained by the reaction of whey protein isolate(WPI) with inulin of different polymerization degrees and was used to stabilize a pomegranate seed oil emulsion. The physicochemical and antioxidative properties of the emulsions were assessed, and the impacts of accelerated oxidation on pomegranate seed oil were examined. The interfacial tension of WPI and short-chain inulin (SCI)-glycosylated conjugate (WPI-SCI) gradually decreased with increasing glycosylation reaction time. Emulsions stabilized by WPI-SCI (72 h) were the most stable, with a thick interfacial film on the surface of the droplets. After accelerated oxidation for 72 h, WPI-SCI inhibited the oxidation of oil in the emulsion. GC-IMS results showed that the production of harmful volatile components in oil was inhibited, and the peroxide strength was less than 30 mmol/kg oil. This study contributes to understanding of stable storage of lipids.

Generation of a human induced pluripotent stem cell line (FDCHi012-A) from a patient with DYRK1A-related intellectual disability syndrome carrying DYRK1A mutation (c.1024G > T).

DYRK1A haploinsufficiency causes a neurodevelopmental syndrome termed DYRK1A-related intellectual disability syndrome which is associated with a range of symptoms including microcephaly, epileptic seizures, and autism spectrum disorder. Here, we generated an induced Pluripotent Stem Cell (iPSC) line with a de novo missense mutation (DYRKIA c.1024G > T) from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a patient with DYRK1A-related intellectual disability syndrome. This iPSC line showed normal karyotype, exhibited pluripotency, and has three embryonic germ layers differentiation capacity. This iPSC line will be of great use in investigating the disease mechanisms and drug screening for patients with DYRK1A-related intellectual disability syndrome.

Novel Therapeutic Targets on the Horizon: An Analysis of Clinical Trials on Therapies for Bone Metastasis in Prostate Cancer.

In the absence of early detection and initial treatment, prostate cancer often progresses to an advanced stage, frequently spreading to the bones and significantly impacting patients' well-being and healthcare resources. Therefore, managing patients with prostate cancer that has spread to the bones often involves using bone-targeted medications like bisphosphonates and denosumab to enhance bone structure and minimize skeletal complications. Additionally, researchers are studying the tumor microenvironment and biomarkers to understand the mechanisms and potential treatment targets for bone metastases in prostate cancer. A literature search was conducted to identify clinical studies from 2013 to 2023 that focused on pain, performance status, or quality of life as primary outcomes. The analysis included details such as patient recruitment, prior palliative therapies, baseline characteristics, follow-up, and outcome reporting. The goal was to highlight the advancements and trends in bone metastasis research in prostate cancer over the past decade, with the aim of developing strategies to prevent and treat bone metastases and improve the quality of life and survival rates for prostate cancer patients.

Single-cell multi-omics analysis of lineage development and spatial organization in the human fetal cerebellum.

Human cerebellum encompasses numerous neurons, exhibiting a distinct developmental paradigm from cerebrum. Here we conducted scRNA-seq, scATAC-seq and spatial transcriptomic analyses of fetal samples from gestational week (GW) 13 to 18 to explore the emergence of cellular diversity and developmental programs in the developing human cerebellum. We identified transitory granule cell progenitors that are conserved across species. Special patterns in both granule cells and Purkinje cells were dissected multidimensionally. Species-specific gene expression patterns of cerebellar lobes were characterized and we found that PARM1 exhibited inconsistent distribution in human and mouse granule cells. A novel cluster of potential neuroepithelium at the rhombic lip was identified. We also resolved various subtypes of Purkinje cells and unipolar brush cells and revealed gene regulatory networks controlling their diversification. Therefore, our study offers a valuable multi-omics landscape of human fetal cerebellum and advances our understanding of development and spatial organization of human cerebellum.
