    Abstract COVID-19 is an unprecedented global pandemic with a serious negative impact on virtually every part of the world. Although much progress has been made in preventing and treating the disease, much remains to be learned about how best to treat the disease while considering patient and disease characteristics. This paper reports a case study of combinatorial treatment selection for COVID-19 based on real-world data from a large hospital in Southern China. In this observational study, 417 confirmed COVID-19 patients were treated with various combinations of drugs and followed for four weeks after discharge (or until death). Treatment failure is defined as death during hospitalization or recurrence of COVID-19 within four weeks of discharge. Using a virtual multiple matching method to adjust for confounding, we estimate and compare the failure rates of different combinatorial treatments, both in the whole study population and in subpopulations defined by baseline characteristics. Our analysis reveals that treatment effects are substantial and heterogeneous, and that the optimal combinatorial treatment may depend on baseline age, systolic blood pressure, and c-reactive protein level. Using these three variables to stratify the study population leads to a stratified treatment strategy that involves several different combinations of drugs (for patients in different strata). Our findings are exploratory and require further validation.

    Abstract Motivation: With advances in metagenomic sequencing technologies, there are accumulating studies revealing the associations between the human gut microbiome and some human diseases. These associations shed light on using gut microbiome data to distinguish case and control samples of a specific disease, which is also called host disease status classification. Importantly, using learning-based models to distinguish the disease and control samples is expected to identify important biomarkers more accurately than abundance-based statistical analysis. However, available tools have not fully addressed two challenges associated with this task: limited labeled microbiome data and decreased accuracy in cross-studies. The confounding factors, such as the diet, technical biases in sample collection/sequencing across different studies/cohorts often jeopardize the generalization of the learning model.
    Results: To address these challenges, we develop a new tool GDmicro, which combines semi-supervised learning and domain adaptation to achieve a more generalized model using limited labeled samples. We evaluated GDmicro on human gut microbiome data from 11 cohorts covering 5 different diseases. The results show that GDmicro has better performance and robustness than state-of-the-art tools. In particular, it improves the AUC from 0.783 to 0.949 in identifying inflammatory bowel disease. Furthermore, GDmicro can identify potential biomarkers with greater accuracy than abundance-based statistical analysis methods. It also reveals the contribution of these biomarkers to the host's disease status.

    Abstract Motivation: There is accumulating evidence showing the important roles of bacteriophages (phages) in regulating the structure and functions of the microbiome. However, lacking an easy-to-use and integrated phage analysis software hampers microbiome-related research from incorporating phages in the analysis.
    Results: In this work, we developed a web server, PhaBOX, which can comprehensively identify and analyze phage contigs in metagenomic data. It supports integrated phage analysis, including phage contig identification from the metagenomic assembly, lifestyle prediction, taxonomic classification, and host prediction. Instead of treating the algorithms as a black box, PhaBOX also supports visualization of the essential features for making predictions. The web server is designed with a user-friendly graphical interface that enables both informatics-trained and nonspecialist users to analyze phages in microbiome data with ease.
    Availability and implementation: The web server of PhaBOX is available via: https://phage.ee.cityu.edu.hk. The source code of PhaBOX is available at: https://github.com/KennthShang/PhaBOX.

    Abstract Intrathyroid thymic carcinoma (ITC) is a rare malignant tumour. We present nine cases of ITC that were analysed by immunohistochemical staining, of which five were analysed using whole exome sequencing (WES). These cases included six women and three men with an age range of 31-66 years. The average postoperative follow-up term was 37.8 months (range, 7-95 months), and all patients survived well except for one case with lung metastasis. Microscopically, ITC showed solid islands of tumour cells separated by fibrous connective tissue containing lymphocytes and other inflammatory cells. Tumour cells strongly expressed Ckpan (AE1/AE3), P63, and CD117. And all cases but one were positive for CD5. The median value of Ki-67 was 32% (range 10-60%). We observed partial positivity of Syn and CgA in only one case. ITC shares morphological and immunohistochemical similarities with thymic squamous cell carcinoma. In situ hybridization of EBER showed negative results. All cases were microsatellite stable, and the tumour mutational burden of the 5 cases was all < 1 mutations/Mb. WES showed higher mutation rates for N4BP1 (2/5), and many genetic alterations were related to the NF-kB signalling pathway, which is crucial for insight into the molecular mechanisms of the occurrence and development of ITC.

    Abstract Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease characterised by articular cartilage destruction, and its complex aetiology contributes to suboptimal clinical treatment outcomes. A close association exists between glucose metabolism dysregulation and OA pathogenesis. Owing to the unique environment of low oxygen and glucose concentrations, chondrocytes rely heavily on their glycolytic capacity, exhibiting distinct spatiotemporal differences. However, under pathological stimulation, chondrocytes undergo excessive glycolytic activity while mitochondrial respiration and other branches of glucose metabolism are compromised. This metabolic change induces cartilage degeneration by reprogramming the inflammatory responses. Sirtuins, a highly conserved family of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD
