University–industry collaboration (UIC) has been booming for several decades worldwide. Integrating knowledge and resources from universities and industries has become a common method to maintain the innovation capacities of the industries. UIC activities have been promoted in Taiwan through various incentive policies for more than 20 years. However, most university faculty members still obtain research resources from government-related organizations much more than from the industries. Thus, this study focuses on the mechanism between faculty inputs and UIC outputs and tries to answer how faculty characteristics, background, motivation, and the collaboration patterns between universities and industries affect the work outputs of university faculty members. The sample consisted of 2031 questionnaires, and 376 traceable questionnaires were deemed valid and were analyzed. The results showed that age, gender, universities, work experience, award records, seniority of the faculty member, and the strength of social ties between the collaborative teams indeed had significant effects on the UIC outputs. The results of this study may be informative for the industries when business organizations are interested in seeking academia partners to achieve their expected collaboration outputs.

Background/Aims: Obstacles exist in facilitating hepatitis C virus (HCV) care cascade. To increase timely and accurate diagnosis, disease awareness and accessibility, in-hospital HCV reflex testing followed by automatic appointments and a late call-back strategy (R.N.A. model) was applied. We aimed to compare the HCV treatment rate of patients treated with this strategy compared to those without. Methods: One hundred and twenty-five anti-HCV seropositive patients who adopted the R.N.A. model in 2020 and another 1,396 controls treated in 2019 were enrolled to compare the gaps in accurate HCV RNA diagnosis to final treatment allocation. Results: The HCV RNA testing rate was significantly higher in patients who received reflex testing than in those without reflex testing (100% vs. 84.8%, P<0.001). When patients were stratified according to the referring outpatient department, a significant improvement in the HCV RNA testing rate was particularly noted in patients from non-hepatology departments (100% vs. 23.3%, P<0.001). The treatment rate in HCV RNA seropositive patients was 83% (83/100) after the adoption of the R.N.A. model, among whom 96.1% and 73.9% of patients were from the hepatology and non-hepatology departments, respectively. Compared to subjects without R.N.A. model application, a significant improvement in the treatment rate was observed for patients from non-hepatology departments (73.9% vs. 27.8%, P=0.001). The application of the R.N.A. model significantly increased the in-hospital HCV treatment uptake from 6.4% to 73.9% for patients from non-hepatology departments (P<0.001). Conclusions: The care cascade increased the treatment uptake and set up a model for enhancing in-hospital HCV elimination. (Clin Mol Hepatol 2021;27:136-143)

Cis-3-O-p-hydroxycinnamoyl ursolic acid (HCUA), a triterpenoid compound, was purified from Elaeagnus oldhamii Maxim. This traditional medicinal plant has been used for treating rheumatoid arthritis and lung disorders as well as for its anti-inflammation and anticancer activities. This study aimed to investigate the anti-proliferative and apoptotic-inducing activities of HCUA in oral cancer cells. HCUA exhibited anti-proliferative activity in oral cancer cell lines (Ca9-22 and SAS cells), but not in normal oral fibroblasts. The inhibitory concentration of HCUA that resulted in 50% viability was 24.0 μM and 17.8 μM for Ca9-22 and SAS cells, respectively. Moreover, HCUA increased the number of cells in the sub-G1 arrest phase and apoptosis in a concentrationdependent manner in both oral cancer cell lines, but not in normal oral fibroblasts. Importantly, HCUA induced p53-mediated transcriptional regulation of pro-apoptotic proteins (Bax, Bak, Bim, Noxa, and PUMA), which are associated with mitochondrial apoptosis in oral cancer cells via the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential. HCUA triggered the production of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) that was ascertained to be involved in HCUA-induced apoptosis by the ROS inhibitors YCG063 and N-acetyl-L-cysteine. As a result, HCUA had potential antitumor activity to oral cancer cells through eliciting ROS-dependent and p53-mediated mitochondrial apoptosis. Overall, HCUA could be applicable for the development of anticancer agents against human oral cancer.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia and is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The anti-arrhythmic effect of statins on AF prevention appears to be highly significant in most clinical studies. However, some discrepancies do existamong different clinical studies. Different clinical settings and types of stains used may explain these differences between trials. The CHADS 2and CHA 2 DS 2 VASc scoring systems have been used for stroke risk stratification in AF patients. The recent study suggested that thesescores can also be used to guide statin therapy for AF prevention. Patients with higher scores had a higher risk of developing AF and gained morebenefits from statins therapy than those with lower scores. This review article focused on the ability of these scores to predict AF preventionby statins.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Coffee is a complex chemical mixture, with caffeine being the most well-known bioactive substance. The immunomodulator y and anti-inflammator y properties of coffee and caffeine impact health in various aspects, including the respirator y system. The objective is to investigate the effects of coffee and caffeine on air way hyperresponsiveness and allergic reactions, as well as to analyze and compare associated cytokine profiles. MATERIALS/METHODS: BALB/c mice were intraperitoneally sensitized with ovalbumin (OVA) and given OVA inhalation to induce air way hypersensitivity. Two weeks after sensitization, they were intragastrically gavaged with coffee or caffeine, both containing 0.3125 mg caffeine, daily for 4 weeks. Control mice were fed with double-distilled water. Serum OVA- specific antibody levels were measured beforehand and 5 weeks after the first gavage. Air way hyperresponsiveness was detected by whole body plethysmography after gavage. Cytokine levels of bronchoalveolar lavage and cultured splenocytes were analyzed. RESULTS: Coffee effectively suppressed T helper 2-mediated specific antibody response. Air way responsiveness was reduced in mice treated with either coffee or caffeine. Compared to the control, coffee significantly reduced OVA-specific immunoglobulin (Ig) G, IgG1 and IgE antibody responses (P < 0.05). Caffeine also attenuated specific IgG and IgG1 levels, though IgE level was unaffected. Coffee significantly reduced interleukin (IL)-4 and increased IL-10 concentration in spleen cells and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Coffee effectively attenuated air way hyperresponsiveness and systemic allergic responses induced by OVA food allergen in mice. As a complex composition of bioactive substances, coffee displayed enhanced immunomodulator y and anti-inflammator y effects than caffeine.

Pineapples are tropical fruit that are rich in vitamins, enzymes and fibers with many health benefits not only in pulps but also peels. However, the peels of pineapples are normally removed and dropped. The pulps and peels of four pineapple cultivars, Milk, Honey Fragrance, Smooth Cayenne and Golden Diamond pineapples, were juiced, filtered and analyzed, and the Golden Diamond pineapple was found to have highest antioxidant capacity. The pulp and peel juices of Golden Diamond pineapple were inoculated with Enterococcus faecium LYC91 and various concentration calcium carbonate to ferment at 37°C for 24 hours follow by bacterial and antioxidant capacity analysis. The results indicated that the fermented pineapple peel juice with calcium carbonate had highest bacterial number, total polyphenol content, DPPH radical scavenging ability, Fe2 + chelating ability and reducing power activity than pulp juice and unfermented pineapple juice. The viable bacterial number of fermented pineapple pulp and peel juices with calcium carbonate remain 8.0 log CFU/mL after stored at 4°C for 1 month. The freeze-dried powder of the fermented pineapple pulp and peel juices with calcium carbonate retained the viable cell number of 9.0 log CFU/g after stored at 4°C for three months. These results showed that the fermented pineapple pulp and peel juices with calcium carbonate were novel pineapple lactic acid fermented drinks with growth potential.

Objective Problematic use of social media (PUSM) may affect sleep quality and self-stigma in people with schizophrenia and consequently reduce their quality of life (QoL). This longitudinal study investigated if sleep quality and self-stigma mediated relationships between PUSM and QoL.Methods One-hundred-and-ninety-three outpatients with schizophrenia were recruited from a psychiatric center in Taiwan from April 2019 to August 2021 and participated in a longitudinal study at intervals of three months between measurements. QoL was assessed using the World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire Brief Version; sleep quality using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index; self-stigma using the Self-Stigma Scale-Short; and PUSM using the Bergen Social Media Addiction Scale. Via SPSS 20.0, general estimating equation models assessed temporal associations between variables. Via R software, mediating effects of self-stigma and sleep quality were examined through Monte Carlo simulations with 20,000 repetitions.Results Mean scores of physical, psychological, social and environmental QoL ranged from 11.86 to 13.02. Mean scores of sleep quality and self-stigma were 9.1±4.5 and 2.2±0.8, respectively. Sleep quality and self-stigma were directly related to QoL (p<0.001) and mediated indirect relationships between PUSM and all components of QoL with a range of 95% confidence intervals spanning from -0.0591 to -0.0107 for physical QoL; -0.0564 to -0.0095 for psychological QoL; -0.0292 to -0.0035 for social QoL; and -0.0357 to -0.0052 for environmental QoL.Conclusion Sleep quality and self-stigma mediated relationships between PUSM and QoL in people with schizophrenia. Developing interventions targeting PUSM, sleep, and self-stigma may help improve QoL in people with schizophrenia.
