    Abstract Background: Ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption continues to increase worldwide. However, evidences from meta-analyses are limited regarding the effects on cardiovascular events (CVEs).
    Methods: A meta-analysis was performed to assess the dose-response relationship of UPF consumption and CVEs risk (including the morbidity and mortality of cardiovascular causes, and myocardial infarction, stroke, transient ischemic attack, coronary intervention). Databases (PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science) were searched for observational studies published in English language up to October 24, 2023. Generalized least squares regression and restricted cubic splines were used to estimate the linear/nonlinear relationship. PROSPERO CRD 42023391122.
    Findings: Twenty studies with 1,101,073 participants and 58,201 CVEs cases with a median follow-up of 12.2 years were included. A positive linear relationship between UPF intake and CVEs risk was identified. In addition, positive correlation between coronary heart disease and UPF consumption in terms of daily serving and daily energy proportion. No significant association of UPF consumption with the risk of cerebrovascular disease was observed. Briefly, 10% increase of UPF by daily weight proportion was associated with a 1.9% increase of CVEs risk (RR = 1.019; 95% CI, 1.007-1.031;
    Interpretation: UPF consumption were associated with a higher risk of CVEs in the positive linear relationship. Our findings highlight the importance of minimizing UPF consumption for cardiovascular health and might be help to pursue public health policies in control of UPF consumption.

    Abstract Vascular microenvironment is found to be closely related to immunotherapy efficacy. Identification and ultrasound imaging of the unique vascular characteristics, able to predict immune microenvironment, is important for immunotherapy decision-making. Herein, it is proved that high CD93 expression in the tumor vessels is closely related to the poor immune response of prostate cancer. For ultrasound molecular imaging of CD93, CD93-targeted microbubbles (MBs) consist a gaseous core and the MMRN2 (Multimerin-2) containing cell membrane (CM) /lipid hybrid membrane is then synthesized. In vitro and in vivo assays demonstrate that these MBs can recognize CD93 efficiently and then accumulate within tumor regions highly expressing CD93. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) imaging with CD93-targeted MBs demonstrates that targeted ultrasound intensity is negatively related to inflammatory tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) and cytotoxic T cell infiltration. Together, endothelial expression of CD93 in tumor is a unique predictor of immunosuppressive microenvironment and CD93-targeted MBs have a great potential to evaluate tumor immune status.

    Abstract Regular exercise maintains a healthy metabolic profile, while the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Extracellular vesicles serve as an important mediator in intercellular communication. In this study, we aimed to explore whether exercise-induced extracellular vesicles (EVs) of skeletal muscle origins contribute to exercise-related protective effects on metabolism. We found that the twelve weeks of swimming training improved glucose tolerance, reduced visceral lipid accumulation, alleviated liver damage, and inhibited atherosclerosis progression in both obese WT mice and ApoE

    Abstract Background: Gut microbiota is closely related to the occurrence and development of diabetes and affects the prognosis of diabetic complications, and the underlying mechanisms are only partially understood. We aimed to explore the possible link between the gut microbiota and vascular inflammation of diabetic mice.
    Methods: The db/db diabetic and wild-type (WT) mice were used in this study. We profiled gut microbiota and examined the and vascular function in both db/db group and WT group. Gut microbiota was analyzed by 16s rRNA sequencing. Vascular function was examined by ultrasonographic hemodynamics and histological staining. Clostridium butyricum (CB) was orally administered to diabetic mice by intragastric gavage every 2 days for 2 consecutive months. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and expression of nuclear factor erythroid-derived 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) were detected by fluorescence microscopy. The mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokines was tested by quantitative polymerase chain reaction.
    Results: Compared with WT mice, CB abundance was significantly decreased in the gut of db/db mice, together with compromised vascular function and activated inflammation in the arterial tissue. Meanwhile, ROS in the vascular tissue of db/db mice was also significantly increased. Oral administration of CB restored the protective microbiota, and protected the vascular function in the db/db mice via activating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.
    Conclusion: This study identified the potential link between decreased CB abundance in gut microbiota and vascular inflammation in diabetes. Therapeutic delivery of CB by gut transplantation alleviates the vascular lesions of diabetes mellitus by activating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.

    Abstract Abstract Cancer vaccine has been considered as a promising immunotherapy by inducing specific anti‐tumor immune response. Rational vaccination at suitable time to efficiently present tumor associated antigen will boost tumor immunity and is badly needed. Here, a poly (lactic‐co‐glycolic acid) (PLGA)‐based cancer vaccine of nanoscale is designed, in which engineered tumor cell membrane proteins, mRNAs, and sonosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6) are encapsulated at high efficiency. The nanosized vaccine can be efficiently delivered into antigen presentation cells (APCs) in lymph nodes after subcutaneous injection. In the APCs, the encapsulated cell membrane and RNA from engineered cells, which have disturbed splicing resembling the metastatic cells, provide neoantigens of metastatic cancer in advance. Moreover, the sonosensitizer Ce6 together with ultrasound irradiation promotes mRNA escape from endosome, and augments antigen presentation. Through 4T1 syngeneic mouse model, it has been proved that the proposed nanovaccine is efficient to elicit antitumor immunity and thus prevent cancer metastasis.

    Abstract Introduction: It is challenging to assess the prognosis of patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) after large decompressive craniectomy (DC). The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical value of transcranial color-coded duplex sonography (TCCD) for assessing the prognosis of sTBI patients 6 months after large DC.
    Methods: This was a retrospective observational study that consecutively enrolled 84 patients with sTBI who were followed up for prognosis until 6 months after large DC. The primary endpoint was the Glasgow Outcome Score (GOS). According to the GOS, patients were divided into an unfavorable prognosis group (GOS 1-3, n = 47) and a favorable prognosis group (GOS 4-5, n = 37).
    Results: Significant between-group differences were found in age and hemodynamic parameters (systolic peak blood flow velocity, end-diastolic blood flow velocity, mean blood flow velocity, pulsatility index and resistance index) of the middle cerebral artery detected by TCCD (P < 0.05 for all). Subsequently, ridge regression was used to build a prognostic model for patients with large DC. Based on the cerebral hemodynamic parameters measured by TCCD and age, the mean (± standard deviation) area under the curve of the prognostic model in patients with sTBI after large DC was 0.76 ± 0.22. The sensitivity and specificity were 82.08% and 74.17%, respectively.
    Conclusions: The cerebral hemodynamic parameters detected by TCCD, combined with age, may be used to predict the outcomes of patients with sTBI at 6 months after large DC. As a noninvasive method, TCCD has the potential to assess the prognosis of these patients.

    Abstract Unsupervised deep learning techniques have gained increasing popularity in deformable medical image registration However, existing methods usually overlook the optimal similarity position between moving and fixed images To tackle this issue, we propose a novel hierarchical cumulative network (HCN), which explicitly considers the optimal similarity position with an effective Bidirectional Asymmetric Registration Module (BARM). The BARM simultaneously learns two asymmetric displacement vector fields (DVFs) to optimally warp both moving images and fixed images to their optimal similar shape along the geodesic path. Furthermore, we incorporate the BARM into a Laplacian pyramid network with hierarchical recursion, in which the moving image at the lowest level of the pyramid is warped successively for aligning to the fixed image at the lowest level of the pyramid to capture multiple DVFs. We then accumulate these DVFs and up-sample them to warp the moving images at higher levels of the pyramid to align to the fixed image of the top level. The entire system is end-to-end and jointly trained in an unsupervised manner. Extensive experiments were conducted on two public 3D Brain MRI datasets to demonstrate that our HCN outperforms both the traditional and state-of-the-art registration methods. To further evaluate the performance of our HCN, we tested it on the validation set of the MICCAI Learn2Reg 2021 challenge. Additionally, a cross-dataset evaluation was conducted to assess the generalization of our HCN. Experimental results showed that our HCN is an effective deformable registration method and achieves excellent generalization performance.
