Feature-Based Matrix Factorization

Recommender system has been more and more popular and widely used in many applications recently. The increasing information available, not only in quantities but also in types, leads to a big challenge for recommender system that how to leverage these rich information to get a better performance. Most traditional approaches try to design a specific model for each scenario, which demands great efforts in developing and modifying models. In this technical report, we describe our implementation of feature-based matrix factorization. This model is an abstract of many variants of matrix factorization models, and new types of information can be utilized by simply defining new features, without modifying any lines of code. Using the toolkit, we built the best single model reported on track 1 of KDDCup'11.Comment: Minor update, add some related work

Hexa-μ2-acetato-triaqua-μ3-oxido-triiron(III) nitrate acetic acid solvate

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Fe3(CH3COO)6O(H2O)3]NO3·CH3COOH, consists of a hexa-μ2-acetato-triaqua-μ3-oxo-triiron(III) macrocation, a nitrate ion and an acetic acid solvent mol­ecule. In the cation, each Fe3+ ion is coordinated by four carboxyl­ate O atoms, one central bridged O atom and one water mol­ecule, resulting in distorted FeO6 octa­hedra. A network of O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds helps to establish the packing

Efficacy and safety of weekly versus triweekly cisplatin treatment concomitant with radiotherapy for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma: A systematic review and pooled analysis

Background: Most nasopharyngeal carcinoma cases are diagnosed at an advanced stage due to their hidden anatomical structure and atypical clinical symptoms and often require chemoradiotherapy. Here, we present a systematic review and pooled analysis to synthesize existing research on the efficacy and adverse effects of weekly versus triweekly cisplatin chemotherapy concomitant with radiotherapy for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LANPC).Methods: We searched the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases from inception to 1 September 2021, for relevant original research articles published in English. The literature search and data extraction were done independently by two investigators. We used random-effects models to provide point estimates [95% confidence interval (CI)] of overall response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), locoregional recurrence-free survival (LRFS), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) and the incidence rate of adverse effects (AEs) and with subgroup analysis according to each study type. The primary endpoints were ORR, OS, and PFS; LRFS, DMFS, and grade ≥3 acute AEs were secondary endpoints.Results: In total, 2,305 patients of eight studies were included in this review. We found that patients who were administered cisplatin weekly or triweekly had no differences in ORR, OS, PFS, DMFS, LRFS, severe mucositis, dermatitis, nausea/vomiting or nephrotoxicity. Patients who were administered weekly cisplatin were at a higher risk of hematological toxicity compared with patients who received the chemotherapy triweekly.Conclusion: Our findings suggest that both regimens could be recommended as the standard of care for the chemoradiotherapy treatment of LANPC, the perceived benefit of lower toxicity with weekly cisplatin could not be established

The Expression and Biological Significance of PD-L1 on Lung Cancer Cell Lines

Background and objective Tumor-associated PD-L1 expression was recently shown to promote T-cell apoptosis and proposed as a potential mechanism of immune evasion by tumors. On the basis of the ability of tumor-associated PD-L1 to mediate activated T-cell death, it is likely that manipulation of the PD-L1 pathway at defined time points during the development of the T-cell antitumor immune response can enhance the efficacy of T-cell-based immunotherapy. Here, the levels of expression of PD-L1 on lung cancer cell lines and its role in interaction of CTL and target cells was investigated. Methods Human PBMC derived DCs were loaded with apoptotic tumor cells and stimulated by CD40 mAb (5C11). Tumor specific CTL was generated in vitro by autologous T cells co-cultured with mature DCs. Expression of PD-L1 on lung cancer cell lines H1299 and A549 were analyzed by FCM. JAM assay was used to detect the cytolytic activity of CTL with or without blocking PD-L1 by PD-L1 mAb respectively. The concentrations of IFN-γ in supernatants from distinct groups were analyzed by ELISA. Results Tumor cells-loaded mature DCs could induce the generation of the tumor specific CTL. Expression of PD-L1 was low on A549 cell, but high on H1299 cell. Blockade of PD-L1 on A549 could not improve cytolytic effect of CTL on target cells and IFN-γ production, but fragmentation of H1299 cells and IFN-γ production were significantly enhanced by the combination of PD-L1 mAb and CTL. Conclusion Expression of PD-L1 on lung cancer cell line can decrease the cytolytic effect of CTL on target cells

Active Fragment of Veronica ciliata

Excessive amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the body are a key factor in the development of hepatopathies such as hepatitis. The aim of this study was to assess the antioxidation effect in vitro and hepatoprotective activity of the active fragment of Veronica ciliata Fisch. (VCAF). Antioxidant assays (DPPH, superoxide, and hydroxyl radicals scavenging) were conducted, and hepatoprotective effects through the application of tert-butyl hydroperoxide- (t-BHP-) induced oxidative stress injury in HepG2 cells were evaluated. VCAF had high phenolic and flavonoid contents and strong antioxidant activity. From the perspective of hepatoprotection, VCAF exhibited a significant protective effect on t-BHP-induced HepG2 cell injury, as indicated by reductions in cytotoxicity and the levels of ROS, 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), and protein carbonyls. Further study demonstrated that VCAF attenuated the apoptosis of t-BHP-treated HepG2 cells by suppressing the activation of caspase-3 and caspase-8. Moreover, it significantly decreased the levels of ALT and AST, increased the activities of acetyl cholinesterase (AChE), glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase (CAT), and increased total antioxidative capability (T-AOC). Collectively, we concluded that VCAF may be a considerable candidate for protecting against liver injury owing to its excellent antioxidant and antiapoptosis properties

Association between serum Klotho concentration and hyperlipidemia in adults: a cross-sectional study from NHANES 2007–2016

ObjectiveThe Klotho protein is a well-documented anti-aging protein known for its diverse biological functions. Hyperlipidemia is an established independent risk factor for various chronic diseases. However, there is limited understanding of the connection between Klotho and hyperlipidemia. The aim was to assess the association between serum Klotho levels and hyperlipidemia among adults.MethodsThe study included 11,618 individuals from the NHANES database from 2006 to 2017. Hyperlipidemia was diagnosed following the National Cholesterol Education Program guidelines. Serum Klotho concentration was measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit, and the association between Klotho and hyperlipidemia was assessed by a multivariable logistic regression model. Fitted smoothing curves and threshold-effect analysis were employed to describe nonlinear relationships.ResultsIn our multiple logistic regression models, serum Klotho concentration was significantly associated with hyperlipidemia after adjusting for comprehensive confounders (per SD increment odds ratio (OR): 0.91; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.86–0.97). Compared to individuals in the lowest Klotho quartile, those in the highest quartile exhibited a substantially decreased prevalence of hyperlipidemia (OR: 0.72; 95% CI: 0.58–0.90). Using a two-segment logistic regression model, we identified a U-shaped relationship between serum Klotho concentration and hyperlipidemia, with an inflection point at 1,365.5 pg/mL. Subgroup analysis did not reveal any potential moderating effects.ConclusionThis study revealed an inverse relationship between Klotho levels and hyperlipidemia. Further investigation is warranted to explore the underlying mechanism between serum Klotho and hyperlipidemia
