    Abstract: Whether imaging parameters would independently predict stroke recurrence in low-risk minor ischemic stroke (MIS) or transient ischemic attack (TIA) according to traditional score system (such as ABCD 2 score, which was termed on the basis of the initials of the five factors: age, blood pressure, clinical features, duration, diabetes) remains unclear. We sought to evaluate the association between imaging parameters and 1-year stroke recurrence in patients with TIA or MIS in different risk stratum stratified by ABCD 2 score. Methods: We included patients with TIA and MIS (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score ≤3) with complete baseline vessel and brain imaging data from the Third China National Stroke Registry III. Patients were categorized into different risk groups based on ABCD 2 score (low risk, 0–3; moderate risk, 4–5; and high risk, 6–7). The primary outcome was stroke recurrence within 1 year. Multivariable Cox proportional-hazards regression models were used to assess whether imaging parameters (large artery stenosis, infarction number) were independently associated with stroke recurrence. Results: Of the 7140 patients included, 584 patients experienced stroke recurrence within 1 year. According to the ABCD 2 score, large artery stenosis was associated with higher stroke recurrence in both low-risk (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.746 [95% CI, 1.200–2.540]) and moderate-risk group (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.326 [95% CI, 1.042–1.687] ) but not in the high-risk group ( P 〉 0.05). Patients with multiple acute infarctions or single acute infarction had a higher risk of recurrent stroke than those with no infarction in both low- and moderate-risk groups, but not in the high-risk group. Conclusions: Large artery stenosis and infarction number were independent predictors of 1-year stroke recurrence in low-moderate risk but not in high-risk patients with TIA or MIS stratified by ABCD 2 score. This finding emphasizes the importance of early brain and vascular imaging evaluation for risk stratification in patients with TIA or MIS.

    Abstract: Objective: To explore the role of WMH in progression of CSVD in an urban community in China over a period of 7 years, and to investigate associations between WMH volume (baseline & progression) and cognitive impairment. Methods: CSVD markers and neuropsychological tests at baseline and follow-up of 191 participants of the Shanghai Aging Study (SAS) were assessed. WMH volume were assessed by automatic segmentation based on U-net model. Lacunes, cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) and enlarged perivascular spaces (ePVS) were rated manually. SVD score was rated as the total burden of CSVD markers. We performed multivariate linear regression and binominal logistic regression. We plotted progression of markers by baseline WMH volume in tertile. Results: Participants with higher baseline WMH volume developed more progression of WMH volume, increased risk of incident lacunes, incident CMBs, and ePVS progression. Mean change of WMH volume over 7 years was 4.27mL (0.62mL/y) for all participants, 3.21mL for participants with 1st tertile WMH volume at baseline, 4.19mL for those with 2nd tertile WMH, and 5.43mL for those with 3rd tertile WMH. Incident lacunes and incident CMBs were predominantly seen in participants with 2nd and 3rd tertile WMH. WMH (baseline & progression) were associated with decline of executive function. Conclusions: WMH play a pivotal role in progression of cerebral small vessel disease and are associated with decline of executive function in a Chinese urban community study over a period of 7 years.

    Abstract: The aim of this study was to identify associations between dietary intakes of eggs and cholesterol and all‐cause and heart disease mortality in a US population. Methods and Results Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999–2014 were used in this study, which included 37 121 participants ≥20 years of age. Dietary information was assessed via 24‐hour dietary recalls at baseline. Mortality status was documented until December 31, 2015. Cox proportional hazards models were used to examine the associations between dietary intakes of eggs and cholesterol and all‐cause and heart disease mortality. During a median follow‐up of 7.8 years, 4991 deaths were documented, including 870 deaths from heart disease. No significant association was observed between additional daily consumption of half an egg and all‐cause mortality (multivariable‐adjusted hazard ratio, 1.04; 95% CI, 0.96–1.13), or heart disease mortality (0.96; 0.80–1.14). Each 50‐mg/day increase of cholesterol intake was inversely associated with all‐cause mortality among participants with daily intake 〈 250 mg (0.87; 0.77–0.98), but positively associated with all‐cause mortality among participants with daily intake ≥250 mg (1.07; 1.01–1.12). No significant association was found between dietary cholesterol intake and heart disease mortality. Conclusions No significant association was found between egg consumption and mortality in US adults. The association between dietary cholesterol intake and all‐cause mortality depended on the baseline intake levels, with an inverse association in those with lower intake levels ( 〈 250 mg/day) but a positive association in those with higher intake levels (≥250 mg/day).

    Abstract: Background and Purpose: Cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) are associated with recurrent stroke, dementia and mortality in the general population. Hypertension (blood pressure over 140/90 mmHg) was thought as a crucial risk factor of CMBs in the general population. However, the cutoff for diagnosis of hypertension was lowered to blood pressure over 130/80 mmHg in the 2017 American College of Cardiology / American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) guidelines. Whether the new definition of hypertension remains a potent risk factor of CMBs is questionable. We aimed to analyze the relationship between the new definition of hypertension and incident CMBs in a 7-year longitudinal community study. Methods: This study is part of the Shanghai Aging Study (SAS). 159 participants without stroke or dementia (mean age, 67.7 years) underwent repeated clinical examinations and cerebral MRI at baseline (2009-2011) and follow-up (2016-2018) with a median interval of 6.9 years. CMBs at baseline and follow-up were evaluated on T2*-GRE and SWAN sequence of MRI. We classified baseline blood pressure into four categories: normal BP, elevated systolic blood pressure, stage 1 hypertension and stage 2 hypertension according to the new criteria. We assessed the association of blood pressure categories with incident CMBs by generalized linear models. Results: Participants with incident CMBs had higher baseline systolic blood pressure (SBP) and pulse pressure (PP) than those without incident CMBs. The difference was significant in SBP (P=0.024), and marginally significant in PP (P=0.057). Both stage 1 and stage 2 hypertension were associated with a higher risk of incident CMBs (IRR=2.77, P=0.028; IRR=3.04, P=0.011, respectively). Conclusions: In this 7-year longitudinal study, participants with incident CMBs had higher SBP and PP at baseline. Stage 1 and stage 2 hypertension defined by this new criterion were associated with incident CMBs.

    Abstract: Cardiac remodeling in heart failure involves macrophage-mediated immune responses. Recent studies have shown that a PRR (pattern recognition receptor) called dectin-1, expressed on macrophages, mediates proinflammatory responses. Whether dectin-1 plays a role in pathological cardiac remodeling is unknown. Here, we identified a potential role of dectin-1 in this disease. Methods: To model aberrant cardiac remodeling, we utilized mouse models of chronic Ang II (angiotensin II) infusion. In this model, we assessed the potential role of dectin-1 through using D1KO (dectin-1 knockout) mice and bone marrow transplantation chimeric mice. We then used cellular and molecular assays to discover the underlying mechanisms of dectin-1 function. Results: We found that macrophage dectin-1 is elevated in mouse heart tissues following chronic Ang II administration. D1KO mice were significantly protected against Ang II–induced cardiac dysfunction, hypertrophy, fibrosis, inflammatory responses, and macrophage infiltration. Further bone marrow transplantation studies showed that dectin-1 deficiency in bone marrow–derived cells prevented Ang II–induced cardiac inflammation and dysfunction. Through detailed molecular studies, we show that Ang II binds directly to dectin-1, causing dectin-1 homodimerization and activating the downstream Syk (spleen tyrosine kinase)/NF-κB (nuclear factor kappa B) signaling pathway to induce expression of inflammatory and chemoattractant factors. Mutagenesis studies identified R184 in the C-type lectin domain to interact with Ang II. Blocking dectin-1 in macrophages suppresses Ang II–induced inflammatory mediators and subsequent intercellular cross talk with cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts. Conclusions: Our study has discovered dectin-1 as a new nonclassical receptor of Ang II and a key player in cardiac remolding and dysfunction. These studies suggest that dectin-1 may be a new target for treating hypertension-related heart failure.

    Abstract: Primary liver tumors (PLCs) and liver metastasis currently represent the leading cause of cancer‐related deaths worldwide due to poor outcomes, high incidence, and postsurgical recurrence. Hence, novel diagnostic markers and therapeutic strategies for PLCs are urgently needed. The human microbiome can directly or indirectly impact cancer initiation, progression, and response to therapy, including cancer immunotherapy; however, the roles of the microbiota in the tumor microenvironment are not clear and require more investigation. Here, we investigated intratumoral microbial community profiling on formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded tissue samples of patients with PLC by 16S ribosomal RNA using the MiSeq platform. We characterized the microbial communities in different histopathological subtypes and in the different prognoses of patients with PLC. The study revealed microbial population differences not only in carcinoma tissue and the matched adjacent nontumor tissue but in different histopathological subtypes, even in patients with PLC with different prognoses. Interestingly, the abundance of certain bacteria that have antitumor effects at family and genus level, such as Pseudomonadaceae , decreased in tumor tissue and was linearly associated with prognosis of patients with PLC. Conclusion: We provide a potential novel diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic strategy for early clinical diagnosis and treatment of PLC.

    Abstract: To develop and validate deep learning (DL) models for predicting the severity of acute pancreatitis (AP) by using abdominal nonenhanced computed tomography (CT) images. Methods The study included 978 AP patients admitted within 72 hours after onset and performed abdominal CT on admission. The image DL model was built by the convolutional neural networks. The combined model was developed by integrating CT images and clinical markers. The performance of the models was evaluated by using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve. Results The clinical, Image DL, and the combined DL models were developed in 783 AP patients and validated in 195 AP patients. The combined models possessed the predictive accuracy of 90.0%, 32.4%, and 74.2% for mild, moderately severe, and severe AP. The combined DL model outperformed clinical and image DL models with 0.820 (95% confidence interval, 0.759–0.871), the sensitivity of 84.76% and the specificity of 66.67% for predicting mild AP and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.920 (95% confidence interval, 0.873–0.954), the sensitivity of 90.32%, and the specificity of 82.93% for predicting severe AP. Conclusions The DL technology allows nonenhanced CT images as a novel tool for predicting the severity of AP.
