promotes colitis to colorectal cancer transition through IgA+ B cell suppression and vinculin acetylation.

Lymphoid tissue-resident commensal bacteria (LRC), a subtype of gut microbiota essential for inflammation-associated carcinogenesis, predominantly attribute to colorectal cancer(CRC), whereas its role was largely unknown. Herein, we found (), the main LRC embedded in Peyer's patches, was abundantly enriched in colitis, adenoma, and stage-dependently observed in CRC tissues. Interestingly, alone can not affect intestinal homeostasis, while during colitis, significantly translocated from Peyer's patches to colon, remarkably attenuated immune response abilities of B cells, T cells, and DC cells in PPs, consequently impeded IgA+ B cells homing.

The immune function of TLR4-1 gene in Octopus sinensis revealed by RNAi and RNA-seq.

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a class of conserved pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that are crucial for initiating the innate immune response and aiding in the clearance of pathogenic organisms. Many studies have identified TLR4 as a distinctive member of the TLR family, capable of activating both the Myeloid differentiation factor 88-dependent signaling pathway (MyD88-dependent) and the TIR-domain-containing adaptor inducing IFN-β dependent signaling pathway (TRIF-dependent). Nevertheless, the role of TLR4 in Cephalopoda is still largely unexplored.

Efficacy and safety of anti-angiogenesis agents combined with chemoradiotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced cervical cancer: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Background: Neovascularization is an important factor causing radiotherapy resistance, tumor growth, and metastasis. It may provides a new direction for treatment of cervical cancer.

Objective And Methods: The main objective is to systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of antiangiogenic therapy combined with CCRT in the treatment of cervical cancer.

A novel signature to predict the neoadjuvant chemotherapy response of bladder carcinoma: Results from a territory multicenter real-world study.

Although neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) has become the standard treatment option for muscle invasive bladder carcinoma (MIBC), its application is still limited because of the lack of biomarkers for NAC prediction. We conducted a territory multicenter real-world study to summarize NAC practice in China and its associated clinicopathologic variables with NAC response. Then, we developed and validated a robust gene-based signature for accurate NAC prediction using weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA), the least absolute shrinkage and selector operation (LASSO) algorithm, a multivariable binary logistic regression model, and immunohistochemistry (IHC).

Two-step widefield fundus fluorescein angiography-assisted laser photocoagulation in pediatric retinal vasculopathy: A pilot study.

Purpose: To introduce the procedures of two-step fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) and evaluate its utility in the management of pediatric retinal vasculopathy.

Materials And Methods: In this retrospective study, medical records of 12 patients who received two-step FFA were studied. The two-step FFA consisted of step 1 [low-dose (LD)] FFA at an intravenous dose of 1.

Prophylactic juxtapapillary laser photocoagulation in pediatric morning glory syndrome.

Aim: To determine the anatomic and visual outcomes of prophylactic juxtapapillary laser photocoagulation treatment alone in the prevention of retinal detachment (RD) in a cohort of pediatric patients diagnosed with morning glory syndrome (MGS).

Methods: A total of 24 eyes of 22 consecutive patients aged 0-15y diagnosed with MGS treated with prophylactic juxtapapillary laser photocoagulation alone were reviewed. Data including demographics, ocular examination, anatomic and visual outcomes, following treatment and complications were collected.

Dry-Lensectomy Assisted Lensectomy in the Management for End-Stage Familial Exudative Vitreoretinopathy Complicated With Anterior Segment Abnormalities.

Purpose: To report a modified technique of dry-lensectomy assisted lensectomy in the management of end-stage familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) complicated with capsule-endothelial, iris-endothelial adhesion and secondary glaucoma.

Methods: 24 eyes of 16 patients with severe complications of advanced pediatric total retinal detachment caused by FEVR who received limbus-based dry-lensectomy were studied retrospectively. Preoperative and postoperative clinical information was collected and reviewed.

The role of maternal age & birth order on the development of unilateral and bilateral retinoblastoma: a multicentre study.

Background/objectives: Retinoblastoma is a common childhood intraocular malignancy, the bilateral form of which most commonly results from a de novo germline pathogenic variant in the RB1 gene. Both advanced maternal age and decreasing birth order are known to increase the risk of de novo germline pathogenic variants, while the influence of national wealth is understudied. This cohort study aimed to retrospectively observe whether these factors influence the ratio of bilateral retinoblastoma cases compared to unilateral retinoblastoma, thereby inferring an influence on the development of de novo germline pathogenic variants in RB1.

Clinical and Echographic Features of Morning Glory Disc Anomaly in Children: A Retrospective Study of 249 Chinese Patients.

Purpose: To report the clinical and echographic features, the prevalence of retinal detachment (RD), and associated visual acuity in a cohort of pediatric patients with morning glory disc anomaly (MGDA).

Methods: This was a retrospective review of 249 pediatric patients with MGDA (271 eyes) seen at the Dept. of Ophthalmology, Xinhua Hospital.

LENS CAPSULAR FLAP TRANSPLANTATION AS PRIMARY TREATMENT FOR CLOSURE OF LARGE MACULAR HOLES.

Purpose: To report the long-term outcomes of lens capsular flap transplantation (LCFT) as initial treatment for large macular holes (MHs).

Methods: Thirteen consecutive eyes with large MHs who received LCFT as primary treatment were reviewed retrospectively. All enrolled eyes underwent standard 23-gauge vitrectomy, internal limiting membrane peeling, LCFT, and 15% perfluoropropane tamponade.

The Effects of Breastfeeding on Retinoblastoma Development: Results from an International Multicenter Retinoblastoma Survey.

The protective effects of breastfeeding on various childhood malignancies have been established but an association has not yet been determined for retinoblastoma (RB). We aimed to further investigate the role of breastfeeding in the severity of nonhereditary RB development, assessing relationship to (1) age at diagnosis, (2) ocular prognosis, measured by International Intraocular RB Classification (IIRC) or Intraocular Classification of RB (ICRB) group and success of eye salvage, and (3) extraocular involvement. Analyses were performed on a global dataset subgroup of 344 RB patients whose legal guardian(s) consented to answer a neonatal questionnaire.

Visualization of the renal vein filled with contrast agent may indicate the renal vein injury during percutaneous nephrolithotomy: two case reports.

Background: Intravenous misplacement of a nephrostomy tube is a rare complication of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) or percutaneous nephrostomy. The mechanism of misplacement of a nephrostomy tube into the vascular system is seldom investigated. One type of the possible mechanism is that the puncture needle penetrates a major intrarenal tributary of the renal vein and enters the collecting system.

Lag Time between Onset of First Symptom and Treatment of Retinoblastoma: An International Collaborative Study of 692 Patients from 10 Countries.

Background: The relationship between lag time and outcomes in retinoblastoma (RB) is unclear. In this study, we aimed to study the effect of lag time between onset of symptoms and diagnosis of retinoblastoma (RB) in countries based on their national-income and analyse its effect on the outcomes.

Methods: We performed a prospective study of 692 patients from 11 RB centres in 10 countries from 1 January 2019 to 31 December 2019.

Spectrum of germline mutations in RB1 in Chinese patients with retinoblastoma: Application of targeted next-generation sequencing.

Purpose: Retinoblastoma (RB) is a pediatric ocular malignancy due to biallelic inactivation of the gene. Genetic testing is critically important for treatment decisions for this disease. Targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) has been demonstrated to be an effective strategy for discovering all types of mutations in the gene.
