Research has reported shortened lifespans (by 15-30years) for those with severe mental illness (SMI) or substance use disorder (SUD), particularly among public mental health treatment consumers. We assessed SMI- and SUD-associated mortality in the understudied setting of a large, nonprofit integrated health care system.

This retrospective cohort study examined 2010-2017 health system and death records for 564,592 adult patients. Half had SMI/SUD diagnosis; half were a demographically matched comparison group without SMI, other mental health, or SUD diagnoses. We estimated mortality risks, adjusting for demographic and physical health factors.

Having SMI or SUD was associated with higher odds of death (adjusted odds ratio=1.87) and an average 6.3years of earlier death relative to comparison individuals. Co-occurring SMI and SUD conferred higher mortality risk from major natural and unnatural causes than did SMI with no SUD.

Some indicators of premature mortality were lower than those reported for U.S. public mental health consumers, but risk level varied widely by diagnosis. While patients' having insurance and broad access to care may lower risk, access to care may be insufficient to overcome the many patient-, provider-, and system-level factors contributing to poor physical health in SMI and SUD.

Their unintentional release via wastewaters raises concerns on their environmental impact, particularly for aquatic organisms and their associated bacterial communities. It is known that the microbiome plays an important role in its host's health and physiology, e.g. by producing essential nutrients and providing protection against pathogens. A thorough understanding of the effects of AgNPs on bacterial communities and on their interactions with the host is crucial to fully assess AgNP toxicity on aquatic organisms. Our results indicate that the microbiome of the invertebrate Schmidtea mediterranea, a freshwater planarian, is affected by AgNP exposure at the tested 10 μg/ml concentration. Using targeted amplification of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene V3-V4 region, two independent experiments on the microbiomes of adult worms revealed a consistent decrease in Betaproteobacteriales after AgNP exposure, mainly attributed to a decrease in Curvibacter and Undibacterium. Although developing tissues and organisms are known to be more sensitive to toxic compounds, three independent experiments in regenerating worms showed a less pronounced effect of AgNP exposure on the microbiome, possibly because underlying bacterial community changes during development mask the AgNP induced effect. The presence of a polyvinyl-pyrrolidone (PVP) coating did not significantly alter the outcome of the experiments compared to those with uncoated particles. The observed variation between the different experiments underlines the highly variable nature of microbiomes and emphasises the need to repeat microbiome experiments, within and between physiological states of the animal.Triclosan (TCS) has been widely used in daily life for its broad-spectrum antibacterial property and subsequently detected frequently in aquatic waterborne. Environmental relevant concentrations of TCS in water (ng-μg/L) may pose potential unexpected impact on non-target aquatic organisms. In the present work, we investigated the transcriptional responses of Nrf2 as well as its downstream genes, sirtuins and redox-sensitive microRNAs (RedoximiRs) in livers of the small freshwater fish mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis) which were exposed to environmental relevant concentrations of TCS (0.05 μg/L, 0.5 μg/L and 5 μg/L for 24 h and 168 h). Results showed there were similar up-regulations in Nrf2 and its target genes (e. g. NQO1, CAT and SOD) at transcriptional, enzymatic and protein levels, reflecting oxidative stress of TCS to mosquitofish. Meanwhile, up-regulations of Sirt1, Sirt2 and down-regulations of miR-34b, miR-200b-5p and miR-21 could modulate antioxidant system via the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway by the post-transcriptional regulations. Some oxidative stress-related biomarkers displayed in concentration-dependent manners (e. g. NQO1 mRNA, CAT mRNA) and/or time-dependent manners (e. g. KPT-330 GSH contents). This study indicated that the RedoximiRs/Sirtuin/Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway played a crucial role in mosquitofish exposed to TCS, and there might be potentially profound effects for TCS on the aquatic ecological safety.Incomplete multi-view clustering which aims to solve the difficult clustering challenge on incomplete multi-view data collected from diverse domains with missing views has drawn considerable attention in recent years. In this paper, we propose a novel method, called consensus guided incomplete multi-view spectral clustering (CGIMVSC), to address the incomplete clustering problem. Specifically, CGIMVSC seeks to explore the local information within every single-view and the semantic consistent information shared by all views in a unified framework simultaneously, where the local structure is adaptively obtained from the incomplete data rather than pre-constructed via a k-nearest neighbor approach in the existing methods. Considering the semantic consistency of multiple views, CGIMVSC introduces a co-regularization constraint to minimize the disagreement between the common representation and the individual representations with respect to different views, such that all views will obtain a consensus clustering result. Experimental comparisons with some state-of-the-art methods on seven datasets validate the effectiveness of the proposed method on incomplete multi-view clustering.Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) can regulate physiological and pathological functions, exhibiting a wide range of roles in cell biology. Moreover, many lncRNAs are dysregulated in various cancers, including colon cancer. In this study, we investigated the role of the lncRNA LINC00355 in colon cancer, after first establishing its interaction with GTF2B, and ITGA2 on the LncMap database. The predicted relationships between the lncRNA LINC00355, GTF2B, and ITGA2 were identified using luciferase reporter assay, RIP, and ChIP experiments. Western blot analysis and RT-qPCR were applied to determine expression pattern of lncRNA LINC00355 and ITGA2 in colon cancer cells. Additionally, EdU, TUNEL, Cell-adhesion and Transwell assay was used for the detection of the effects of this axis on proliferation, apoptosis, adhesion, chemotaxis and metastasis. LncRNA LINC00355 targeted IGFBP2 through the recruitment of GTF2B. LncRNA LINC00355 was highly expressed in colon cancer cells, and overexpression of lncRNA LINC00355 increased the expression of IGFBP2 and GTF2B, and thereby promoted the proliferation, chemotaxis, invasion, and migration in colon cancer.
