Abstract	(1) Background: Some patients with hypertriglyceridemic pancreatitis (HTGP) drink occasionally or moderately, but do not meet the diagnostic criteria for alcoholic pancreatitis. This study aims to investigate whether occasional or moderate alcohol consumption affects the clinical outcomes of patients with HTGP. (2) Methods: This retrospective study included 373 patients with HTGP from January 2007 to December 2021. HTGP patients with occasional or moderate alcohol (OMA) consumption before onset were divided into the OMA group, and HTGP patients without alcohol (WA) consumption were divided into the WA group. The OMA group was further divided into two groups: the drinking within 48 h before onset (DW) group, and the without drinking within 48 h before onset (WDW) group. The clinical data of the two groups were compared and multivariable logistic regression was used to analyze independent risk factors for the primary outcomes. (3) Results: The proportion of men (95.7% vs. 67.6%, p < 0.001) and smoking history (61.7% vs. 15.1%, p < 0.001) in the OMA group were higher than those in the WA group. Occasional or moderate alcohol consumption was independently associated with a high incidence of SAP (adjusted odds ratio (AdjOR), 1.57; 95% CI, 1.02–2.41; p = 0.041), and necrotizing pancreatitis (AdjOR, 1.60; 95% CI, 1.04–2.48; p = 0.034). After dividing the OMA group into two subgroups, we found that drinking within 48 h before onset was independently associated with a high incidence of SAP (AdjOR, 3.09; 95% CI, 1.66–5.77; p < 0.001), and necrotizing pancreatitis (AdjOR, 2.71; 95% CI, 1.46–5.05; p = 0.002). (4) Conclusion: Occasional or moderate alcohol consumption is associated with poor clinical outcomes in patients with HTGP, particularly if they drank alcohol within 48 h before the onset of the disease.

Abstract	Speech emotion recognition is a critical component for achieving natural human–robot interaction. The modulation-filtered cochleagram is a feature based on auditory modulation perception, which contains multi-dimensional spectral–temporal modulation representation. In this study, we propose an emotion recognition framework that utilizes a multi-level attention network to extract high-level emotional feature representations from the modulation-filtered cochleagram. Our approach utilizes channel-level attention and spatial-level attention modules to generate emotional saliency maps of channel and spatial feature representations, capturing significant emotional channel and feature space from the 3D convolution feature maps, respectively. Furthermore, we employ a temporal-level attention module to capture significant emotional regions from the concatenated feature sequence of the emotional saliency maps. Our experiments on the Interactive Emotional Dyadic Motion Capture (IEMOCAP) dataset demonstrate that the modulation-filtered cochleagram significantly improves the prediction performance of categorical emotion compared to other evaluated features. Moreover, our emotion recognition framework achieves comparable unweighted accuracy of 71% in categorical emotion recognition by comparing with several existing approaches. In summary, our study demonstrates the effectiveness of the modulation-filtered cochleagram in speech emotion recognition, and our proposed multi-level attention framework provides a promising direction for future research in this field.

Abstract	Inconsistent results exist regarding the treatment effectiveness of immediate versus deferred percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of immediate versus deferred PCI in ACS patients. PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library electronic databases were systematically searched from their inception up to August 2019. Random-effects models were employed to calculate pooled relative risks (RRs) and weight mean differences (WMDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). A total of 10 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that recruited 3350 patients were selected for inclusion in the final meta-analysis. Four trials included patients with non-ST elevation ACS (NSTEACS), whereas the remaining six trials included patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). There were no significant differences between immediate versus deferred PCI for the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (NSTEACS patients: RR, 0.76, 95%CI, 0.33-1.75, P = 0.513; STEMI patients: RR, 1.24, 95%CI, 0.80-1.92, P = 0.335), myocardial infarction (NSTEACS patients: RR, 0.88, 95%CI, 0.27-2.81, P = 0.826; STEMI patients: RR, 0.86, 95%CI, 0.43-1.74, P = 0.678), all-cause mortality (NSTEACS patients: RR, 0.85, 95%CI, 0.38-1.88, P = 0.686; STEMI patients: RR, 1.16, 95%CI, 0.82-1.66, P = 0.407), target vessel revascularisation (NSTEACS patients: RR, 1.26, 95%CI, 0.29-5.43, P = 0.756; STEMI patients: RR, 1.01, 95%CI, 0.51-1.97, P = 0.988), or major bleeding (NSTEACS patients: RR, 0.99, 95%CI, 0.64-1.54, P = 0.972; STEMI patients: RR, 0.90, 95%CI, 0.45-1.77, P = 0.753). Although patients who underwent immediate PCI may experience increased incidences of cardiac death (RR, 1.19, 95%CI, 0.69-2.07, P = 0.525) and no or slow reflow (RR, 1.60, 95%CI, 0.91-2.84, P = 0.105), these increases were not statistically significant. We noted that immediate versus deferred PCI was associated with a reduced incidence of myocardial brush grade 3 (RR, 0.70, 95%CI, ...

Abstract	Noncoding RNAs have been implicated in the pathophysiology of spinal cord injury (SCI), including cell death, glial scar formation, axonal collapse and demyelination, and inflammation. The evidence suggests that exercise therapy is just as effective as medical treatment in SCI. However, studies of competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA)-mediated regulation mechanisms in the therapy of SCI with exercise are rare. The focus of this research was to investigate the effect of exercise therapy on the expression levels of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA), microRNA (miRNA), and mRNA in rats with SCI. The RNA-seq technology has been used to examine the differentially expressed circRNAs (DECs), lncRNAs (DELs), miRNAs (DEMs), and genes (DEGs) between SCI and exercise therapy rats. The ceRNA network was established using interactions between miRNAs and mRNAs, as well as between miRNAs and lncRNAs/circRNAs. The Database for Annotation, Visualization, and Integrated Discovery was used to anticipate the underlying functions of mRNAs. Our current study identified 76 DELs, 33 DEMs, and 30 DEGs between groups of SCI rats and exercise therapy rats. Subsequently, these newly discovered ceRNA interaction axes could be important targets for the exercise treatment of SCI.

Abstract	Aims: We investigated whether faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) decreases intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) and improves gastrointestinal (GI) dysfunction and infectious complications in acute pancreatitis (AP).Methods: In this first randomised, single-blind, parallel-group, controlled study, we recruited and enrolled consecutive patients with AP complicated with GI dysfunction. Eligible participants were randomly assigned to receive faecal transplant (n = 30) or normal saline (n = 30) via a nasoduodenal tube once and then again 2 days later. The primary endpoint was the rate of IAP decline; secondary endpoints were GI function, infectious complications, organ failure, hospital stay and mortality. Analyses were based on intention to treat.Results: We enrolled 60 participants and randomly assigned them to the FMT (n = 30) or control (n = 30) group. Baseline characteristics and disease severity were similar for both groups. IAP decreased significantly 1 week after intervention in both groups, with no difference in the IAP decline rate between FMT and Control group [0.1 (−0.6, 0.5) vs. 0.2 (−0.2, 0.6); P = 0.27]. Normal gastrointestinal failure (GIF) scores were achieved in 12 (40%) patients in the FMT group and 14 (47%) in the control group, with no significant difference (P = 0.60). However, D-lactate was significantly elevated in the FMT group compared to the control group, as calculated by the rate of decline [−0.3 (−3.7, 0.8) vs. 0.4 (−1.1, 0.9); P = 0.01]. Infectious complications occurred in 15 (50%) and 16 (53.33%) patients in the FMT and control groups, respectively (P = 0.80). However, interleukin-6 (IL-6) was significantly elevated in the FMT group compared to the control group, as calculated by the rate of decline [0.4 (−3.6, 0.9) vs. 0.8 (−1.7, 1.0); P = 0.03]. One participant experienced transient nausea immediately after FMT, but no serious adverse events were attributed to FMT.Conclusion: FMT had no obvious effect on IAP and infectious complications in AP patients, though GI barrier indictors ...

Abstract	ObjectivesTo investigate the dynamic changes in gastric varices in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) and to develop a novel nomogram for the early prediction of sinistral portal hypertension (SPH).MethodsThis was a retrospective, case-control study with an analysis of the quantitative, dynamic computed tomography imaging results of SPH in patients with moderate and severe AP with a long-term follow-up. Multivariate logistic regression analysis and nomogram were employed.ResultsThe SPH group (n = 94) and non-SPH group (n = 94) were matched. The dynamic changes showed an increasing trend in the diameter of gastric fundus, short gastric, gastric coronary, and gastroepiploic veins, which did not recover during the one-year follow-up. Multivariate analysis showed that male (adjusted odds ratio (adjOR), 8.71; 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.86–26.53; P < 0.001), body mass index ≥27.5 kg/m2 (adjOR, 5.49; 95% CI, 1.85–16.29; P = 0.002), prothrombin time ≥12.6 s (adjOR, 2.82; 95% CI, 1.11–7.17; P = 0.03), and the patency of splenic vein [stenosis (adjOR, 8.48; 95% CI, 2.13–33.71; P = 0.002), and occlusion (adjOR, 34.57; 95% CI, 10.87–110.00; P < 0.001)] were independently associated with the development of SPH. The nomogram incorporating these factors demonstrated good discrimination, calibration and clinical utility. The area under the curve was as high as 0.92 (95% CI, 0.87–0.95).ConclusionThe dynamic changes in varices in SPH are long-term and slowly progressing. Males and obese patients with abnormal splenic veins and coagulopathies are at high risk for developing SPH. A simple nomogram tool helps in the early, accurate prediction of SPH.

Abstract	On the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, the high-altitudinal gradients can negatively affect plant distribution and limit plant growth and reproduction. Leymus secalinus (Georgi) Tzvel. is an important forage crop on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau and has an excellent ability to fix sand and improve soil. To evaluate the effect of altitude on the physiological characteristics of L. secalinus on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, we measured the lipid peroxidation; chlorophyll a (Chl a), chlorophyll b (Chl b), total carotenoid (Car), soluble protein, proline and soluble sugar contents; and the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POD) in leaves from eight different altitudes in Minhe County and Huangzhong County. The leaves were collected at the initial bloom stage, and the average vertical distance between two adjacent collection sites was approximately 100 meters. The reduction in Chl a and Chl b contents and the increase in Car contents can allow plants to weaken their light absorption and avoid photodamage to the chloroplast. The decrease in malondialdehyde (MDA) content associated with lower lipid peroxidation, and the changes of CAT, SOD and POD activities reflect a higher reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging capacity in high-altitude plants. The increase in proline and soluble sugar contents with elevation suggests that proline and soluble sugar may play a key role in the osmotic adjustment of plants in alpine regions. The results suggested that altitudinal gradients negatively affect L. secalinus on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau and that the adaptation mechanism and survival strategies of L. secalinus were attributed to the combined effects of multiple protective strategies.

Abstract	Oat is an annual gramineous forage grass with the remarkable ability to survive under various stressful environments. However, understanding the effects of high altitude stresses on oats is poor. Therefore, the physiological and the transcriptomic changes were analyzed at two sites with different altitudes, low (ca. 2,080 m) or high (ca. 2,918 m), respectively. Higher levels of antioxidant enzyme activity, reactive oxygen and major reductions in photosynthesis-related markers were suggested for oats at high altitudes. Furthermore, oat yields were severely suppressed at the high altitude. RNA-seq results showed that 11,639 differentially expressed genes were detected at both the low and the high altitudes in which 5,203 up-regulated and 6,436 down-regulated. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment tests were conducted and a group of major high altitude-responsive pigment metabolism genes, photosynthesis, hormone signaling, and cutin, suberine and wax biosynthesis were excavated. Using quantitative real-time polymerase chain response, we also confirmed expression levels of 20 DEGs (qRT-PCR). In summary, our study generated genome-wide transcript profile and may be useful for understanding the molecular mechanisms of
