    Abstract Background: To date, few studies have compared effectiveness and survival rates of neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy (NACI) and conventional neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NCRT) in patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The present study was conducted to compare therapeutic response and survival between NACI and NCRT.
    Methods: The study cohort comprised patients with locally advanced ESCC treated with either NACI or NCRT followed by surgery between June 2018 and March 2021. The 2 groups were compared for treatment response, 3-year overall survival (OS), and disease-free survival (DFS). Survival curves were created using the Kaplan-Meier method, differences were compared using the log-rank test, and potential imbalances were corrected for using the inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) method.
    Results: Among 202 patients with locally advanced ESCC, 81 received NACI and 121 received conventional NCRT. After IPTW adjustment, the R0 resection rate (85.2% vs 92.3%; P = .227) and the pathologic complete response (pCR) rate (27.5% vs 36.4%; P = .239) were comparable between the 2 groups. Nevertheless, patients who received NACI exhibited both a better 3-year OS rate (91.7% vs 79.8%; P = .032) and a better 3-year DFS rate (87.4% vs 72.8%; P = .039) compared with NCRT recipients.
    Conclusions: NACI has R0 resection and pCR rates comparable to those of NCRT and seems to be correlated with better prognosis than NCRT. NACI followed by surgery may be an effective treatment strategy for locally advanced ESCC.

    Abstract Objectives: This study aimed to explore the effect of suturing upper mediastinum pleura on postoperative complications, surgery-related mortality, and hospital stay.
    Methods: Four hundred and thirty-eight patients with esophageal cancer who underwent esophagectomy were identified. Patients were divided into two groups: those in the test group who received reconstruction of upper mediastinal pleura, those in the conventional group who did not. The incidence of postoperative complications, surgery-related mortality, and hospital stay were compared. To reduce the impact of confounding factors, a propensity score matching (PSM) method was performed.
    Results: A total of 273 patients were treated with suturing upper mediastinal pleura and 165 were not. After PSM, compared with the conventional group, the incidence of atelectasis (7.2% vs. 1.4%, p = 0.035), anastomotic leakage (5.8% vs. 0.7%, p = 0.036), and delayed gastric emptying (10.8% vs. 3.6%, p = 0.034) were significantly lower in the test group. And suturing the upper mediastinal pleura could reduce the severity of leakage (p = 0.045), consistent with the results before PSM. Moreover, there were no significant differences in the incidence of other complications, postoperative hospital stay, and 30-day mortality (all p > 0.05).
    Conclusions: In this study, suturing the upper mediastinal pleura can reduce the incidence of atelectasis, anastomotic leakage, and delayed gastric emptying, and the severity of leakage, without increasing the incidence of other complications, surgery-related death, and postoperative hospital stay.

    Abstract The CRISPR-based gene editing technology has become more and more powerful in genome manipulation for agricultural breeding, with numerous improved toolsets springing up. In recent years, many CRISPR toolsets for gene editing, such as base editors (BEs), CRISPR interference (CRISPRi), CRISPR activation (CRISPRa), and plant epigenetic editors (PEEs), have been developed to clarify gene function and full-level gene regulation. Here, we comprehensively summarize the application and capacity of the different CRISPR toolsets in the study of plant gene expression regulation, highlighting their potential application in gene regulatory networks' analysis. The general problems in CRISPR application and the optimal solutions in the existing schemes for high-throughput gene function analysis are also discussed. The CRISPR toolsets targeting gene manipulation discussed here provide new solutions for further genetic improvement and molecular breeding of crops.

    Abstract Hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] is a well-known environmental carcinogen. Recent studies revealed that chronic exposure of human bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS-2B, B2B) to Cr(VI) activated several signaling pathways and induced cell malignant transformation and tumor growth. However, new mechanisms of Cr(VI) in inducing carcinogenesis remains to be elucidated. This study showed that miR-199a expression levels were significantly lower in Cr(VI)-transformed Cr-T cells. By using the mouse model, the expression levels of miR-199a were significantly decreased in blood samples and lung tissues of mice intranasally exposed to Cr(VI) for 12 weeks compared to the solvent exposure control. Overexpression of miR-199a inhibited tube formation and angiogenesis. C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8 (CXCL8, IL8) levels were significantly higher in blood samples of Cr (VI)-exposed workers compared to normal workers, and forced expression of miR-199a in the cells suppressed IL8 levels. miR-199a suppression induced expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) p65 to increase IL8 expression. With animal experiment, the results showed that miR-199a overexpression inhibited tumor growth and angiogenesis through inhibiting IL8, HIF-1α and NF-κB p65 expression in vivo. These results show that miR-199a/IL8 pathway is important in Cr(VI)-induced carcinogenesis and angiogenesis.

    Abstract Purpose: The Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), Nutritional Risk Index (NRI), Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI), and Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score were devised for quantifying nutritional risk. This study evaluated their properties in detecting compromised nutrition and guiding perioperative management of esophageal cancer patients.
    Methods: A prospective institutional database of esophageal cancer patients was reviewed and analyzed. Compromised nutritional status was defined as PNI < 50, NRI < 97.5, GNRI < 92, or CONUT score ≥ 4, respectively. The malnutrition diagnosis consensus established by the European Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN 2015) was selected as reference. Multivariable logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis were used. External validation was conducted.
    Results: After reviewing the 212-patient database, 192 patients were finally included. Among the four nutritional indexes, the GNRI < 92 showed highest sensitivity (72.0%), specificity (78.9%), and consistency (AUC 0.754, 95% CI 0.672-0.836) with malnutrition diagnosed by ESPEN 2015. The GNRI < 92 showed comparable performance with ESPEN 2015 in recognizing decreased fat mass, fat-free mass, and skeletal muscle mass (all P < 0.01). Both the GNRI < 92 and ESPEN 2015 showed good property in predicting major complications, infectious complications, overall complications and delayed hospital discharge (all P < 0.01), better than PNI < 50, NRI < 97.5, and CONUT score ≥ 4. Regarding the external validation, a retrospective analysis of 155 esophageal cancer patients confirmed the better performance of GNRI < 92 in predicting perioperative morbidities than other 3 nutritional indexes.
    Conclusion: The GNRI was optimal in perioperative management of esophageal cancer patients among the four nutritional indexes and was an appropriate alternative to ESPEN 2015 for simplifying nutritional assessment.

    Abstract Schistosomiasis is an important zoonotic disease affecting up to 40 kinds of animals and 250 million people. It has been reported that the miRNAs play a role in the metabolism, differentiation, development and reproduction in many organisms. However, the roles of miRNAs regulating the development, maturation and production in schistosome in both females and males remains unclear. Here we present the dynamic transcriptome analysis of all 79 known Schistosoma japonicum miRNAs from pairing to production, including 14 days post-infection (dpi), 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28 dpi female and male, by small RNA sequencing. The miRNA expression profiles showed time-related characteristics in male and female from paring to production, which could be clustered into three patterns, characterized by pairing stage highly expressed (cluster 1), maturating stage highly expressed (cluster 2), and egg producing stage highly expressed (cluster 3). The enrichment of miRNA cluster targeted genes in female and male were distinctly different. Network analysis of miRNAs and their target regulation showed that cluster 1 had 15 miRNAs involved in the regulation of interaction, communication, immune response in female–male and parasite–host. The other 11 miRNAs were involved in gender differentiation and the meiotic cell cycle process. In cluster 2, 11 miRNAs were involved in development and sexual maturation. In cluster 3, 45 miRNAs possibly regulate metabolism and synthesis of the substance for egg production. Analysis of the miRNA regulation network would contribute to understanding the molecular mechanism in S. japonicum development and egg production.

    Abstract Objectives: The left tracheobronchial (4L) lymph nodes (LNs) are considered as regional LNs for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), but there is a controversy about routine prophylactic 4L LN dissection for all resectable ESCCs. This study aimed to develop a nomogram for preoperative prediction of station 4L lymph node metastases (LNMs).
    Methods: A total of 522 EC patients in the training cohort and 370 in the external validation cohort were included. The prognostic impact of station 4L LNM was evaluated, and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent risk factors of station 4L LNM. A nomogram model was developed based on multivariable logistic regression analysis. Model performance was evaluated in both cohorts in terms of calibration, discrimination, and clinical usefulness.
    Results: The incidence of station 4L LNM was 7.9% (41/522) in the training cohort. Patients with station 4L LNM exhibited a poorer 5-year overall survival rate than those without (43.2% vs. 71.6%, p < 0.001). In multivariate logistic regression analyses, six variables were confirmed as independent 4L LNM risk factors: sex (p = 0.039), depth of invasion (p = 0.002), tumor differentiation (p = 0.016), short axis of the largest 4L LNs (p = 0.001), 4L conglomeration (p = 0.006), and 4L necrosis (p = 0.002). A nomogram model, containing six independent risk factors, demonstrated a good performance, with the area under the curve (AUC) of 0.921 (95% CI: 0.878-0.964) in the training cohort and 0.892 (95% CI: 0.830-0.954) in the validation cohort. The calibration curve showed a good agreement on the presence of station 4L LNM between the risk estimation according to the model and histopathologic results on surgical specimens. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test demonstrated a non-significant statistic (p = 0.691 and 0.897) in the training and validation cohorts, which indicated no departure from the perfect fit. Decision curve analysis indicated that the model had better diagnostic power for 4L LNM than the traditional LN size criteria.
    Conclusions: This model integrated the available clinical and radiological risk factors, facilitating in the precise prediction of 4L LNM in patients with ESCC and aiding in personalized therapeutic decision-making regarding the need for routine prophylactic 4L lymphadenectomy.

    Abstract Objective: The left tracheobronchial lymph nodes are considered as regional lymph nodes for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, but routine prophylactic left tracheobronchial lymph node dissection for all resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma has been controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic impact of left tracheobronchial lymph node dissection and left tracheobronchial lymph node metastases in thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and to analyze the risk factors of left tracheobronchial lymph node metastases.
    Methods: A total of 3522 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma undergoing esophagectomy were included. Overall survival was calculated by a Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. Propensity score matching was conducted to adjust confounding factors. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent risk factors of left tracheobronchial lymph node metastases.
    Results: In this study, 608 patients underwent left tracheobronchial lymph node dissection and 45 patients had left tracheobronchial lymph node metastases (7.4%). After propensity score matching, the 5-year overall survival in patients receiving left tracheobronchial lymph node dissection was better than in patients who did not (68.2% vs 64.6%, P = .012). In patients receiving left tracheobronchial lymph node dissection, patients with left tracheobronchial lymph node metastases had a significantly poorer survival than patients without (5-year overall survival: 40.5% vs 62.2%, P = .029). Multivariable logistic analyses showed that clinical T stage and tumor differentiation were independent risk factors for left tracheobronchial lymph node metastases.
    Conclusions: In thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, station left tracheobronchial lymph node metastases indicate a poor prognosis and left tracheobronchial lymph nodes dissection seems to be associated with a more favorable prognosis. Clinical T stage and tumor differentiation were independent risk factors for left tracheobronchial lymph node metastases. For patients with high risk, routine prophylactic left tracheobronchial lymph node dissection should be performed.
