    Abstract ICOMOS Florence Declaration in 2014, encourages an in-depth reflection on human values through cultural heritage and landscapes, which emphasizes the importance of historical heritage sites, in order to achieve the application of cultural heritage records through the public participation, sharing new technology platform and facilitation tools for knowledge diffusion, for instance. Nikos adopted digitized intangible cultural heritage within i-Treasures project to create a novel digital platform in 2016. Nowadays, the display platform developed based on geographic information system has been gradually accepted and widely used to distribute cultural heritage information, aiming to combine geography, time, events, issues, trends with the interactive maps to show the context of data changes from the consideration of planarity; for example, Burnaby City in Canada has cooperated with the Columbia University to create a navigation platform for guidance of tangible cultural heritage based on story maps in order to provide public recognition function. In this study, Qiong-Lin Settlement in Kinmen Area was taken as an example to illustrate the developing process of an overall planning framework for reappearing the glory of historic settlements of cultural heritage sites with digital technology, which included tangible and intangible cultural heritage preservation and transmission planning, community participation and digital navigation programs. The digital technology with the GIS-based digital platform can provide more diverse and interesting information while using an intuitive, graphical user story mapping interface. So that tangible cultural heritage can be effectively understood, interpreted and preserved with the value-added methods, and also intangible cultural heritage can be continuously transmitted to establish a complete system of cultural heritage preservation. The main contents include several navigation technologies, such as 3D laser scanning, UAV images, photogrammetry, panorama, audio/video, geographic information systems etc.

    Abstract Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate clinical significances and biological roles of miR-4299 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) PATIENTS AND METHODS: Expression of miR-4299 in NSCLC tissues and matched non-tumor tissues was determined by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). The correlations between miR-4299 expression and clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis were also analyzed. MTT assay and Transwell assay were performed to determine the proliferation, migration and invasion. Western blotting was used to examine the expressing patterns of PTEN/AKT/PI3K signaling pathway-related proteins.
    Results: We found that the expression level of miR-4299 was downregulated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. Low miR-4299 expression was positively correlated with TNM stage (p=0.002), histological grade (p=0.002) and lymph node metastasis (p=0.028). Moreover, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the patients with low miR-4299 expression had shorter survival time than those with high miR-4299 expression (p=0.0011). More importantly, multivariate analysis suggested that decreased miR-4299 expression was a poor independent prognostic predictor for NSCLC patients (p=0.009). Functionally, overexpression of miR-4299 inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion in A549 cells. Mechanistically, the results of Western blot showed that miR-4299 exhibited its tumor-suppressive role by modulating PTEN/AKT/PI3K signaling pathway.
    Conclusions: We firstly indicated that miR-4299 may be a candidate independent marker for NSCLC prognosis and suppressed the progression of NSCLC by modulating the activation of PTEN/AKT/PI3K signaling pathway, suggesting that miR-4299 could be a potential target for developing therapies in treating NSCLC.

    Abstract Objective: To establish a mutation prediction model for efficacy assessment, the genomic sequencing data of renal cancer patients from the MSKCC (Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center) pan-cancer immunotherapy cohort was used.
    Methods: The genomic sequencing data of 121 clear cell renal cell carcinoma patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) in the MSKCC pan-cancer immunotherapy cohort were obtained from cBioPortal database (http://www.cbioportal.org/) and they were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis to identify mutated genes associated with ICI treatment efficacy, and we constructed a comprehensive prediction model for drug efficacy of ICI based on mutated genes using nomogram. Survival analysis and time-dependent receiver operator characteristic curves were performed to assess the prognostic value of the model. Transcriptome and genomic sequencing data of 538 renal cell carcinoma patients were obtained from the TCGA database (https://portal.gdc.cancer.gov/). Gene set enrichment analysis was used to identify the potential functions of the mutated genes enrolled in the nomogram.
    Results: We used multivariate Cox regression analysis and identified mutations in

    Abstract Multilocular prostatic cystadenoma (MPC) is a rare benign tumor that originates from the prostate itself. MPC is usually characterized by large multilocular cysts located between the rectum and bladder. The clinical presentation includes obstructive voiding symptoms, such as poor stream, intermittency, sensation of incomplete emptying, acute urinary retention and sometimes constipation symptoms due to mechanical compression of the lower intestine. Most of the previously reported patients with MPC underwent open surgery. Although the natural history of MPC remains unknown, surgical excision may not always be necessary. Here we report the case of a 49-year-old male, treated by transurethral electroresection of prostate (TURP) for prostate cyst one and half years before.His biopsy of TURP showed benign prostatic tissue with no evidence of malignancy. However, the symptoms of urinary tract obstruction were obviously aggravated after the operation. Acute urinary retention occurred intermittently 3 times. In our hospital, his total prostate specific antigen (tPSA) was 5.440 μg/L, free prostate specific antigen (fPSA) was 1.528 μg/L. After examination, it was considered as benign lesions clearly. In the operation of TURP, we found that the tumor was multilocular cystic. Histologically, the cell was mucus. Concerning the immunophenotype, CK5/6(+) , p40(+), PSA(+), P504S(+), PAX-2(-), PAX-8(-), MUC1(+), MUC5ac(+), the results of special staining were as follows: AB(+), PAS(+). At the end of the follow up 3 months later, the routine semen analysis results showed that his semen volume was 3 mL and the sperm density and sperm mobility were normal. At the end of the follow up eight months later, the patient remained free of lower urinary tract symptoms and there were no signs of recurrence. His international prostate symptom score (I-PSS) had dropped from 32 to 4, and quality of life score (QOL) had dropped from 6 to 2. MPC is a rare benign tumor originating from the prostate. TURP may aggravate the symptoms of lower urinary tract obstruction in patients with MPC, and may be temporarily observed for some asymptomatic young and middle-aged patients.

    Abstract Objective: To examine the effects of perioperative intravenous administration of flurbiprofen axetil (FA) on pain associated with transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy.
    Methods: This was a randomized,controlled study. Eighty-one patients who underwent 12 core prostate biopsy were included in the study. The patients were randomly assigned to one of three groups (n=27 in each) by type of procedure during prostate biopsy. Group intrarectal local anesthesia (IRLA) received intrarectal 5% (0.05 g/L) lidocaine gel 60 mg, 5 minutes before the procedure alone; Group FA received intravenous flurbiprofen axetil (1 mg/kg) 1 hour before the procedure; Group IRLA+FA received intrarectal 5% lidocaine gel 60 mg, 5 minutes before the procedure and intravenous flurbiprofen axetil (1 mg/kg) 1 hour before the procedure. The patients were asked to score the pain by using visual analogue scale (VAS) in 4 situations,including when the probe was inserted (VASI),during anesthesia (VAS II),during biopsy (VAS III) and 20 minutes after biopsy (VAS IV). The findings were evaluated with analysis of variance,and the Tukey post hoc test was followed with an overall 2-tailed significance level at α =0.05. P1, P value between Group IRLA and Group FA; P2, P value between Group FA and Group IRLA +FA, P3, P value between Group IRLA and Group IRLA +FA. The bonferroni method was used to adjust the test level, α=0.017,a P value of less than 0.017 was accepted as the threshold for statistical significance.
    Results: No major complications,including sepsis and severe rectal bleeding,were noted in any patient. There were no differences in general condition of the patients before procedure among the 3 groups. There were statistically significant differences in VAS scores among the 3 groups in VAS II (5.7±2.2, 3.0±1.5,3.3±1.9,respectively,P=0.012) and VAS III (6.7±2.3,3.0±2.1,2.9±1.6,respectively,P=0.001). There were no differences in the pain scores among the 3 groups during probe insertion (VAS I, 3.2±1.0,4.1±2.1,4.2±1.7, respectively,P=5.752) and 20 minutes after biopsy (VAS IV, 1.4±2.1,1.0±0.9,1.1±0.7,respectively,P=3.772). Between-column differences among the 3 groups were VAS II (P1=0.007,P2=5.655,P3=0.001,respectively) and VAS III(P1=0.008,P2=7.517,P3=0.001,respectively),the differences between Group IRLA and Group FA,Group IRLA and Group IRLA +FA in VAS II and VAS III were statistically significant.
    Conclusion: The intravenous flurbiprofen axetil was found to be more effective than intrarectal lidocaine gel alone.

    Abstract Objective: To investigate the safety and effectiveness of the application of high-volume hemofiltration (HVHF) in children with sepsis combined with acute kidney injury.
    Patients and methods: A total of 76 child patients were enrolled and randomly divided equally (n=38) into control and the observation groups respectively. The control group received conventional volume hemofiltration (the ultrafiltration rate of 35-50 ml/kg/h), and the observation group received HVHF (50-100 ml/kg/h).
    Results: The serum Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Tumor Necrosis Factor-a (TNF-α) and creatinine levels were significantly lower in the observation group than the control group at 6 h, 12 h, 24 h and 48 h of hemofiltration (p<0.05). The efficacy rate of treatment was improved. The mortality rate and incidence rate of complications were decreased, and the treatment course was significantly shortened (p<0.05).
    Conclusions: The application of HVHF in children with sepsis combined with acute kidney injury has a better safety and effectiveness.

    Abstract An experiment was conducted over a 3-year period to investigate the aeolian soil water dynamics and ecophysiological characteristics of Haloxylon ammodendron in Ulan Buh Desert, northwest China. Three different communities of H. ammodendron, which consist of two 8- to 10-year plantations and one natural stand, were selected in this study. As a result, the “economic water threshold” of H. ammodendron was expressed at about 2.0% of the absorbed water content. Above this threshold, the aeolian soil water potential decreased by −0.18MPa with a 1.0% decrease in the water content. Below this threshold, the aeolian soil water potential decreased by −2.09MPa with a 1.0% decrease in the water content. The predawn water potential of the shoot can recover to an above zero turgor pressure when the aeolian soil water content exceeded the “economic water threshold”. However, the predawn water potential of the shoot became −3.50MPa, which was lower than that at zero turgor (−3.41MPa) when the aeolian soil water content was about 1.0%. This results indicated that the shoot cannot recover its turgor. Therefore, 1.0% of the aeolian soil water content was defined as the “survival water threshold” of the growth of H. ammodendron.
