    Abstract Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has had a global social and economic impact. An easy assessment procedure to handily identify the mortality risk of inpatients is urgently needed in clinical practice. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop a simple nomogram model to categorize patients who might have a poor short-term outcome.
    Methods: A retrospective cohort study of 189 COVID-19 patients was performed at Shanghai Ren Ji Hospital from December 12, 2022 to February 28, 2023. Chest radiography and biomarkers, including KL-6 were assessed. Risk factors of 28-day mortality were selected by a Cox regression model. A nomogram was developed based on selected variables by SMOTE strategy. The predictive performance of the derived nomogram was evaluated by calibration curve.
    Results: In total, 173 patients were enrolled in this study. The 28-day mortality event occurred in 41 inpatients (23.7%). Serum KL-6 and radiological severity grade (RSG) were selected as the final risk factors. A nomogram model was developed based on KL-6 and RSG. The calibration curve suggested that the nomogram model might have potential clinical value. The AUCs for serum KL-6, RSG, and the combined score in the development group and validation group were 0.885 (95% CI: 0.804-0.952), 0.818 (95% CI: 0.711-0.899), 0.868 (95% CI: 0.776-0.942) and 0.932 (95% CI: 0.862-0.997), respectively.
    Conclusions: Our results suggested that the nomogram based on KL-6 and RSG might be a potential method for evaluating 28-day mortality in COVID-19 patients. A high combined score might indicate a poor outcome in COVID-19 patients with pneumonia.

    Abstract Rab-interacting lysosomal protein - like 2 (RILPL2) has been reported to be associated with prognosis and tumor biological functions in breast cancer and endometrial carcinoma. However, its expression and functional role in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain unclear. The expression and clinical data of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and lung squamous carcinoma (LUSC) were downloaded from the TCGA database. The expression of RILPL2 in NSCLC cell lines was verified by the Western blot. We used online databases and bioinformatics analysis tools to explore its prognostic value, potential biological functions, and correlations with tumor immune microenvironment.The expression of RILPL2 was significantly lower in NSCLC compared with adjacent normal tissues. Low RILPL2 expression was associated with worse overall survival (OS) in NSCLC. The GO analysis showed RILPL2 was comprehensively involved in immune activity. RILPL2 expression was significantly positively correlated with the infiltration levels of B cells, CD8+T cells, CD4+T cells, macrophages, neutrophils, dendritic cells (P < 0.001), and it was also significantly positively correlated with programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1/CD274) (P < 0.001). High RILPL2 expression could predict better immunotherapy response and prognosis in the immunotherapy cohort. The GSEA analysis showed low RILPL2 expression was associated with glycolysis process in LUAD, which was verified in vitro.These results showed RILPL2 expression was correlated with prognosis, tumor microenvironment, and immunotherapy response in NSCLC. Besides, RILPL2 may regulate glycolysis in LUAD.

    Abstract Introduction: Interstitial lung abnormalities (ILAs), which refer to mild or subtle nongravity-dependent interstitial changes, may be neglected by some clinicians due to many reasons, such as lack of diagnostic criteria for ILAs and absence of available treatments and surveillance strategies. However, without intervention, some ILAs may progress to interstitial lung disease (ILD). This review summarizes our current knowledge of this condition and ways of diagnosing it together with current management. We hope that this will lead to better recognition of ILAs.
    Areas covered: We reviewed the literature on PubMed between 2008 and 2020 focusing on prevalence, etiology, symptoms, diagnostic biomarkers, clinical associations, and management of ILAs.
    Expert opinion: Timely diagnosis with close monitoring of ILAs and appropriate intervention should be recognized as the management approach to ILAs. Research into ILAs should continue to improve its management.

    Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) broke out in December 2019. Due its high morbility and mortality, it is necessary to summarize the clinical characteristics of COVID-19 patients to provide more theoretical basis for future treatment. In the current study, we conducted a retrospective analysis of the clinical characteristics of COVID-19 patients and explored the risk factors for the severity of illness. A total of 101 COVID-19 patients hospitalized in Leishenshan Hospital (Wuhan, China) was classified into three sub-types: moderate (n = 47), severe (n = 36), and critical (n = 18); their clinical data were collected from the Electronic Medical Record. We showed that among the 101 COVID-19 patients, the median age was 62 years (IQR 51-74); 50 (49.5%) patients were accompanied by hypertension, while 25 (24.8%) and 22 (21.8%) patients suffered from diabetes and heart diseases, respectively, with complications. All patients were from Wuhan who had a definite history of exposure to the epidemic area. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that older age, diabetes, chronic liver disease, percentage of neutrophils (N%) > 75%, CRP > 4 mg/L, D-dimer > 0.55 mg/L, IL-2R > 710 U/mL, IL-8 > 62 pg/mL, and IL-10 > 9.1 pg/mL were independent variables associated with severe COVID-19. In conclusion, we have identified the independent risk factors for the severity of COVID-19 pneumonia, including older age, diabetes, chronic liver disease, higher levels of N%, CRP, D-dimer, IL-2R, IL-8, and IL-10, providing evidence for more accurate risk prediction.

    Abstract Statins are the most effective drugs used in the reduction of intracellular synthesis of cholesterol. Numerous studies have confirmed that statins reduce the risk of multiple types of cancers. Statin use in cancer patients is associated with reduced cancer-related mortality. Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a complicated process programmed by multiple genes, is an important mechanism of cancer metastasis. We explored the effect and mechanism of atorvastatin on the EMT process in A549 cells by establishing an EMT model in vitro induced by TGF-β1, and evaluated the effects of atorvastatin on the lower signaling pathway of TGF-β1 stimulation. Our results showed that atorvastatin partially inhibited the EMT process, and inhibited cell migration and actin filament remodeling. Transcriptional upregulation of ZEB1 and protein sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) induced by TGF-β1 was also suppressed. SphK1 plasmid transient transfection strengthened the EMT process induced by TGF-β1 in the presence of atorvastatin. Our experiments confirmed that atorvastatin can partially inhibit the EMT process of non-small cell lung cancer cells induced by TGF-β1 by attenuating the upregulation of SphK1.

    Abstract Genomic MET amplification and exon 14 skipping are currently clinically recognized biomarkers for stratifying subsets of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients according to the predicted response to c-Met inhibitors (c-Metis), yet the overall clinical benefit of this strategy is quite limited. Notably, c-Met protein overexpression, which occurs in approximately 20-25% of NSCLC patients, has not yet been clearly defined as a clinically useful biomarker. An optimized strategy for accurately classifying patients with c-Met overexpression for decision-making regarding c-Meti treatment is lacking. Herein, we found that SYK regulates the plasticity of cells in an epithelial state and is associated with their sensitivity to c-Metis both in vitro and in vivo in PDX models with c-Met overexpression regardless of MET gene status. Furthermore, TGF-β1 treatment resulted in SYK transcriptional downregulation, increased Sp1-mediated transcription of FRA1, and restored the mesenchymal state, which conferred resistance to c-Metis. Clinically, a subpopulation of NSCLC patients with c-Met overexpression coupled with SYK overexpression exhibited a high response rate of 73.3% and longer progression-free survival with c-Meti treatment than other patients. SYK negativity coupled with TGF-β1 positivity conferred de novo and acquired resistance. In summary, SYK regulates cell plasticity toward a therapy-sensitive epithelial cell state. Furthermore, our findings showed that SYK overexpression can aid in precisely stratifying NSCLC patients with c-Met overexpression regardless of MET alterations and expand the population predicted to benefit from c-Met-targeted therapy.

    Abstract Advances in microfluidic technology towards flexibility, transparency, functionality, wearability, scale reduction or complexity enhancement are currently limited by choices in materials and assembly methods. Organized microfibrillation is a method for optically printing well-defined porosity into thin polymer films with ultrahigh resolution. Here we demonstrate this method to create self-enclosed microfluidic devices with a few simple steps, in a number of flexible and transparent formats. Structural colour, a property of organized microfibrillation, becomes an intrinsic feature of these microfluidic devices, enabling in-situ sensing capability. Since the system fluid dynamics are dependent on the internal pore size, capillary flow is shown to become characterized by structural colour, while independent of channel dimension, irrespective of whether devices are printed at the centimetre or micrometre scale. Moreover, the capability of generating and combining different internal porosities enables the OM microfluidics to be used for pore-size based applications, as demonstrated by separation of biomolecular mixtures.

    Abstract Dual-energy spectral computed tomography (DESCT) is based on fast switching between high and low voltages from view to view to obtain dual-energy imaging data, and it can generate monochromatic image sets, iodine-based material decomposition images and spectral CT curves. Quantitative spectral CT parameters may be valuable for reflecting Ki-67 expression and EGFR mutation status in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We investigated the associations among the quantitative parameters generated in DESCT and Ki-67 expression and EGFR mutation in NSCLC. We studied sixty-five NSCLC patients with preoperative DESCT scans, and their specimens underwent Ki-67 and EGFR evaluations. Statistical analyses were performed to identify the spectral CT parameters for the diagnosis of Ki-67 expression and EGFR mutation status. We found that tumour grade and the slope of the spectral CT curve in the venous phase were the independent factors influencing the Ki-67 expression level, and the area under the curve (AUC) of the slope of the spectral CT curve in the venous phase in the receiver operating characteristic analysis for distinguishing different Ki-67 expression levels was 0.901. Smoking status and the normalized iodine concentration in the venous phase were independent factors influencing EGFR mutation, and the AUC of the two-factor combination for predicting the presence of EGFR mutation was 0.807. These results show that spectral CT parameters may be useful for predicting Ki-67 expression and the presence of EGFR mutation in NSCLC.

    Abstract Mounting evidence suggests that an emerging G protein-coupled receptor, TGR5, plays a crucial role ranging from metabolic diseases to cancers. However, the biological functions of TGR5 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain elusive. We found that TGR5 was aberrantly expressed in NSCLC and positively correlated with an advanced clinical stage in NSCLC patients. We further discovered that TGR5 knockdown prevented JAK2 and STAT3 phosphorylation and repressed the expression of STAT3 target genes, thus inhibiting cell proliferation, migration and invasion in NSCLC. Moreover, the promotive effects of TGR5 were significantly reversed by a JAK2 inhibitor or STAT3 knockdown. Additionally, we demonstrated a positive correlation between TGR5 and p-STAT3 expression in NSCLC tissue samples. Patients with both high TGR5 and p-STAT3 expression had the worst prognosis. In addition, the serum levels of deoxycholic acid (DCA), ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) and chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) in NSCLC patients were much higher than those in the healthy controls and the patients with higher serum DCA levels had stronger TGR5 expression simultaneously. Moreover, DCA markedly promoted NSCLC cell migration and invasion through a TGR5-dependent way. Taken together, these results indicate that TGR5 drives cell growth and migration through JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway in NSCLC.
