Difficulty understanding an integration identity

in reading a textbook recently I've come across an identity that I can't derive, even though it looks like it should be easy:
$$ lim _x_0 to infty int d^3vecx~-~ lim _x_0 to -infty int d^3vecx ~equiv~ int d^4x fracpartialpartial x_0 ,
$$
where as usual $(x_0, vecx)$ is a point in space-time.
Any hints/help in deriving this is appreciated.

Thanks for the help! Particularly the edit - I was mostly confused by the notation.

Are these supposed to be considered as operators? (i.e., essentially, should there be some function of $(x_0, vecx)$ under the integral signs here, with appropriate properties to make the integrals convergent?)
