Clubfoot, medically termed congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV), is a prevalent musculoskeletal birth defect, affecting approximately 0.3% of all live births. This serious congenital anomaly results from structural abnormalities in the foot and lower leg, leading to abnormal positioning of the ankl...

Macrophages are the primary immune cells in the cochlea, essential for maintaining cochlear homeostasis and orchestrating inflammatory responses to pathological events. Although these cells have been found in various parts of the cochlea, their presence in the organ of Corti, a critical structure fo...

How to fully use spectral and temporal information for efficient identification of crops becomes a crucial issue since each crop has its specific seasonal dynamics. A thorough understanding on the relative usefulness of spectral and temporal features is thus essential for better organization of crop...

ABSTRACT Glutinous rice flour paste, ideal for 3D printing due to its strong adhesive and mechanical properties, is limited by its tendency to retrograde. This study demonstrates hydrophilic colloids (guar gum, xanthan gum, and sodium alginate) can effectively mitigate this issue, especially over a...

In this study, the climatology and long-term trends of middle atmospheric temperatures at mid-latitudes are investigated using Rayleigh/Sodium lidar observations collected from January 2010 to December 2021 over Hefei, China (32°N, 117°E). The seasonal variations and vertical profiles of lidar-deriv...

Abstract Permeability is essential in controlling hydrocarbon fluid distribution and production in tight sandstone reservoirs. However, most conventional permeability prediction models are low‐accuracy and cannot evaluate the importance of factors quantitatively because of the complex interplay amon...

Integrated foliar spraying has been proposed as an effective measure to mitigate the increasingly severe impacts of hot–dry–windy (HDW) events on winter wheat yield under ongoing climate change, and its physiological effectiveness has been mechanistically validated. However, there are still few quan...

Passion fruit (Passiflora edulis Sims) is a vine of the Passiflora genus in the Passifloraceae family. The extracted components include flavonoids and terpenoids, which have good anti-anxiety and anti-inflammatory effects in humans. In this study, we analyzed the transcriptomes of four tissues of th...
