Research Development on Pathogenesis of Congenital Natural Reddish Cell AplasiaReview
Powdery mildew (PM) is a severe fungal disease of cucumber worldwide. Identification of genetic factors resistant to PM is of great importance for marker-assisted breeding to ensure cucumber production. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and miRNAs have been shown to play important roles in plant development and immunity; however, whether they have a role in PM response in cucurbit crops remains unknown. Here, we performed strand-specific RNA sequencing and miRNA sequencing using RNA from cucumber leaves of two near-isogenic lines (NILs) S1003 and NIL (Pm5.1) infected with PM, and systematically characterized the profiles of cucumber lncRNAs and mRNAs responsive to PM. In total, we identified 12903 lncRNAs and 25598 mRNAs responsive to powdery mildew. Differential expression (DE) analysis showed that 119 lncRNAs and 136 mRNAs correlated with PM resistance. Functional analysis of these DE lncRNAs and DE mRNAs revealed that they are significantly associated with phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, phenylalanine metabolism, ubiquinone and other terpenoid-quinone biosynthesis, and endocytosis. Particularly, two lncRNAs, LNC_006805 and LNC_012667, might play important roles in PM resistance. In addition, we also predicted mature miRNAs and ceRNA(competing endogenouse RNA) networks of lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA involved in PM resistance. A total of 49 DE lncRNAs could potentially act as target mimics for 106 miRNAs. Taken together, our results provide an abundant resource for further exploration of cucumber lncRNAs, mRNAs, miRNAs, and ceRNAs in PM resistance, and will facilitate the molecular breeding for PM resistant varieties to control this severe disease in cucumber.Aim To estimate treatment patterns and healthcare costs among triple-class exposed relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) patients. Materials & methods Eligible patients had ≥1 line of therapy (LOT) each of proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulatory drugs and daratumumab in December 2015-September 2018 and received a new LOT. Results A total of 154 patients were included with a median follow-up of 6.2 months. Median time from diagnosis to new LOT was 41.0 months. Kaplan-Meier estimate of median time to therapy discontinuation was 4.2 months. Mean per-patient, per-month MM-related costs were USD 35,657. Most frequently observed regimens were lenalidomide or pomalidomide + daratumumab (18.2%), lenalidomide or pomalidomide + proteasome inhibitors (15.6%) and lenalidomide or pomalidomide monotherapy (11.0%). Conclusion Triple-class exposed RRMM patients receive heterogeneous treatments for a short duration with high healthcare resource utilization and costs.[Figure see text].The determination of the quality and authenticity of olive oil becomes more and more required by producers, consumers, and authorities to thwarter falsification. Several analytical techniques including chemical, sensory, chromatography, and so on, are used for the determination of the quality and authenticity of olive oil. Although these methods are considered as the reference ones, they are cumbersome, time-consuming and destructive. Therefore, rapid analytical techniques such as fluorescence, ultraviolet-visible, near infrared, and mid infrared spectroscopies, electronic sensing, among others, are more and more used for the determination of the quality and authenticity of olive oils. This review will identify current gaps related to different analytical techniques in olive oil authentication and discuss the drawbacks of existing analytical methods concerning olive oil authenticity from 2010 up to now.
Though many trauma patients are on anticoagulation or antiplatelet therapy (AAT), there are few generalizable data on the risks for these patients. The purpose of this study was to analyze the impact of anticoagulation (AC) and antiplatelet (AP) therapy on mortality and length of stay (LOS) in general trauma patients.
A retrospective review was performed of patients in the institutional trauma registry during 2019 to determine AAT use on admission and discharge. Outcomes were compared using standard statistics.
Of 2261 patients who met the inclusion criteria, 2 were excluded due to an incomplete medication reconciliation, resulting in 2259 patients. Patients on AAT had a higher mortality (4.5% vs 2.1%). On multivariable analysis, preadmission AC (odds ratio OR, 3.325,
= .001), age (OR 1.040,
< .001), and injury severity score ((ISS) 1.094,
< .001) were associated with mortality. Anticoagulation use was also associated with longer LOS on multivariable analysis (OR 1.626,
= .005). Antiplatelet use was not associated with higher mortality or longer LOS. More patients on AAT were unable to be discharged home. However, patients on AAT did not have a greater blood transfusion requirement or need more hemorrhage control procedures. Lastly, 23.7% of patients on preadmission AAT were not discharged on any AAT.
These data demonstrate that patients on AC, but not AP, have greater mortality and longer hospital LOS. This may provide guidance for those being newly started on AAT. FICZ Further work to determine which patients benefit most from restarting AAT would lead to improvement in the care of trauma patients.

Traditional methods for DPB prediction that depend on manually extracted features may lead to classification errors. Recently, deep learning such as convolutional neural network (CNN) has been successfully applied to classification tasks and improved DPB prediction performance significantly. Yet, these methods are based on the original DNA sequence modeling, ignoring the hidden complex dependency and complementarity between multiple sequence features. In consideration of this problem, we propose a method to fuse different sequence features and analyze them systematically through multi-scale CNN. First, sliding windows of specified lengths are set on distinct DNA sequences to generate multiple sequence features with unequal lengths. Second, multiple feature sequences are fused and encoded for feature representation.
