    Abstract Background: Years of Life Lost (YLL) is one of the methods used to estimate the duration of time lost due to premature death. While previous studies of disease burden have been reported using YLL, there have been no studies investigating YLL of Yi people in rural China. Yunnan Province ranks first in terms of Yi people in China. This paper uses YLL to estimate the disease burden of Yi people in Shilin county of Yunnan Province. This study aims to address the differentials about YLL between Yi people and Han people for providing useful information for health planning.
    Methods: We applied the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) method created by WHO. YLL rate per 1,000 were calculated from medical death certificates in 2003 in Shilin Yi Nationality Autonomous County (Shilin county).
    Results: The male had greater YLL rate per 1,000 than did the female almost in each age group. It demonstrated a higher premature mortality burden due to injuries in Shilin county. Among the top non-communicable diseases, respiratory diseases are the most common mortality burden. Yi people are still suffering from maternal conditions, with two times the burden rates of Han people. For Yi people, while malignant neoplasm was one of the least burden of disease for male, it was the greatest for female, which is the opposite to Han people.
    Conclusion: Strategies of economic development should be reviewed to enhance the prevention and treatment of injuries, maternal conditions and respiratory diseases for Yi people.

    Abstract BACKGROUND Lipid metabolism has been proved to be related to the prognosis of breast cancer patients in previous studies, and the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) plays an important role in tumorigenesis and development, but the dynamic regulation of these is still a challenge. MATERIAL AND METHODS This study used lipid metabolism-related pathways to score the gene expression of 980 breast cancer patients in the TCGA database. We used 4 pathways in HALLMARK related to lipid metabolism to score the genes in the database. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were further analyzed through survival analysis and Cox regression analysis, and MS4A1, which is associated with better prognosis, was finally determined to be a predictor. In-depth analysis found that MS4A1 was negatively correlated with patient age, clinical stage, tumor size, and distant metastasis. In the MS4A1 high-expression group, most genes were enriched in immune-related pathways, and CIBERSORT analysis found that MS4A1 expression was positively correlated with the abundance of 10 kinds of immune cells, such as CD8+T cells, which are related to the active immune status. RESULTS Our results suggest that MS4A1 expression can indicate the situation of lipid metabolism in breast cancer patients and reflect the status of the immune microenvironment. CONCLUSIONS MS4A1 has the potential to be an independent indicator of prognosis. Since the expression of MS4A1 is also related to the immune checkpoint mutation burden, detecting its expression level can also provide guidance for choosing treatment options.

    Abstract The neurotransmitter 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin) plays an essential role in the regulation of neural activity via multiple receptors. Here, we investigated the functional role of serotoninergic input on the Dahlgren cell population in the caudal neurosecretory system (CNSS) of olive flounder. In this study, the effect of 5-HT on the firing activity of Dahlgren cells was explored in terms of changes in firing frequency and firing pattern using multicellular recording electrophysiology ex vivo, and the role of several 5-HT receptor subtypes in the regulation was determined. The results revealed that 5-HT increased the firing frequency in a concentration-dependent manner and altered the firing pattern of Dahlgren cells. The effect of 5-HT on the firing activity of Dahlgren cells was mediated through the 5-HT

    Abstract Perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND) is a common disorder following anesthesia and surgery, especially in the elderly. The complex cellular and molecular processes are involved in PND, but the underlying pathogenesis of which remains inconclusive due to conflicting data. A growing body of evidence has been shown that perioperative systemic inflammation plays important roles in the development of PND. We reviewed the relevant literature retrieved by a search in the PubMed database (on July 20, 2023). The search terms used were "delirium", "post operative cognitive dysfunction", "perioperative neurocognitive disorder", "inflammation" and "systemic", alone and in combination. All articles identified were English-language, full-text papers. The ones cited in the review are those that make a substantial contribution to the knowledge about systemic inflammation and PNDs. The aim of this review is to bring together the latest evidence for the understanding of how perioperative systemic inflammation mediates neuroinflammation and brain injury, how the inflammation is regulated and how we can translate these findings into prevention and/or treatment for PND.

    Abstract The cotyledons of etiolated seedlings from terrestrial flowering plants must emerge from the soil surface, while roots must penetrate the soil to ensure plant survival. We show here that the soil emergence-related transcription factor PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTOR 3 (PIF3) controls root penetration via transducing external signals perceived by the receptor kinase FERONIA (FER) in Arabidopsis thaliana. The loss of FER function in Arabidopsis and soybean (Glycine max) mutants resulted in a severe defect in root penetration into agar medium or hard soil. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) profiling of Arabidopsis roots identified a distinct cell clustering pattern, especially for root cap cells, and identified PIF3 as a FER-regulated transcription factor. Biochemical, imaging, and genetic experiments confirmed that PIF3 is required for root penetration into soil. Moreover, FER interacted with and stabilized PIF3 to modulate the expression of mechanosensitive ion channel PIEZO and the sloughing of outer root cap cells.

    Abstract Objective: To explore whether intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) would increase the malformation risk in fetuses and live births compared with conventional in vitro fertilization (IVF).
    Design: Retrospective cohort study.
    Patient(s): Data were collected from couples who underwent conventional IVF or ICSI from January 2009 to December 2019 at the Center for Reproductive Medicine of Peking University Third Hospital in the People's Republic of China. A total of 46,167 conventional IVF fresh transfer cycles and 33,247 ICSI fresh transfer cycles were included.
    Intervention(s): Intracytoplasmic sperm injection and conventional IVF.
    Main outcome measure(s): The primary outcomes were congenital abnormalities in live births. The secondary outcomes included the pregnancy outcomes, the malformations among the miscarriages, specific types of malformations in live births, birth weight, and sex.
    Result(s): The rates of congenital malformations in conventional IVF and ICSI were 5.44‰ and 5.78‰, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups, as indicated by the adjusted odds ratio of 1.098 (95% confidence interval 0.787, 1.532). The rates of specific malformations were comparable between ICSI and IVF. Additionally, no discernible disparities were noted in pregnancy outcomes, the malformations among the miscarriages,birth weight between the two groups.
    Conclusion: Our study suggested the safety of ICSI and provided novel evidence by comparing pregnancy outcomes and congenital malformations in offspring between patients undergoing conventional IVF and ICSI.

    Abstract Embryonic development, especially metamorphosis and settlement, has a major impact on the life history of marine invertebrates. Apostichopus japonicus is an economically important species of sea cucumber. In this study, we performed RNA sequencing on six key stages of A. japonicas development: fertilized eggs, blastula, gastrula, auricularia, doliolaria, and pentactula. A total of 32,353 genes were identified and annotated as a reference gene set for subsequent pairwise comparison analysis. After filtering out low-quality genes, the dynamic molecular responses to development were revealed by WGCNA. The results showed that of the 20 modules, genes in the blue, yellow, and darkslateblue modules were highly correlated with the gastrula, auricularia, and blastula stages, respectively. GO terms for “RNA” and “proteasome complex” were most significantly enriched in the blue module. In the darkslateblue and yellow module, receptors of signaling pathways and metabolic processes were significantly enriched, respectively. All DEGs were categorized into 34 terms, mainly associated with signal transduction and cellular immunity. The expression pattern of genes associated with adhesion, cell cycle, signal, transcription factor, extracellular matrix (ECM), and cytoskeleton was analyzed according to gene function. The results of this study facilitated a more comprehensive understanding of the molecular characteristics of sea cucumber embryonic development and will provide theoretical guidance for larva rearing in sea cucumber culture.

    Abstract Glutamate is the principal excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. In the periphery, glutamate acts as a transmitter and involves in the signaling and processing of sensory input. Glutamate acts at several types of receptors and also interacts with other transmitters/mediators under various physiological and pathophysiological conditions including chronic pain. The increasing amount of evidence suggests that glutamate may play a role through multiple mechanisms in orofacial pain processing. In this study, we reviewed the current understanding of how peripheral glutamate mediates orofacial pain, how glutamate is regulated in the periphery, and how these findings are translated into therapies for pain conditions.
