With global warming and intensified rainfall, the heat and moisture transfer processes within frozen subgrades beneath asphalt pavements have become increasingly complex, posing risks to highway stability in cold regions. This study developed a multi-physics coupled indoor simulation system based on...

Traditional methods, such as full-factorial, orthogonal, and empirical experiments, show limited accuracy and efficiency in selecting cleaning agents for decommissioned oil and gas pipelines. They also lack the ability to quantitatively analyze the impact of multiple variables. This study proposes a...

We propose a new method to generate orbital angular momentum (OAM) mode by superposing multiple LP₁₁ modes with microphase difference distributed along fiber propagation. This way, OAM mode can be generated by superposing a series of LP₁₁ mode with phase...

We report on the implementation of fiber taper interferometric hydrogen sensors with high sensitivity and good reproducibility. The tapering process is carried out with a commercial fusion splicer by precisely controlling the pulling and feeding velocities, as well as arc strength. The taper can nat...

Mountain ecosystems offer valuable opportunities to study species distribution and diversity along altitudinal gradients, particularly for amphibians. This research examined amphibian species distribution, diversity, and conservation across an elevational gradient in the Tangjiahe National Nature Re...

Background This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TACE combined with durvalumab for treating advanced and metastatic BTC. Research design and methods: Data were collected retrospectively from a single center. The TACE procedures were performed 1 to 19 times, with repetitions occurri...

Pigs on high-fat diets maintaining metabolic homeostasis and are resistant to hepatic steatosis, differing from humans and mice. Obesity-induced metabolic dysregulation and inflammation in skeletal muscle are well-studied in humans and mice, but less is known about pig skeletal muscle responses. Thi...

Breast cancer often necessitates surgical interventions such as breast-conserving surgery or mastectomy. In these surgeries, sentinel lymph node (SLN) samples are often excised for histopathological examination to ascertain the presence of cancer metastasis. Despite its importance, traditional hemat...

Abstract Addressing the increasing global demand for sustainable energy, triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have emerged as a promising solution for converting wind energy into electricity, but their practical use is limited by high cut‐in wind speeds and significant wear at high wind speeds. Here...

In this paper, we report on the theoretical and numerical study of the transmission of circularly polarized vortex beams through a plasmonic coaxial nanoring. We show that the transmission peak wavelength of an incident circularly polarized vortex beam is dominantly governed by the total angular mom...

IntroductionLitter decomposition drives nutrient cycling in terrestrial ecosystems, yet the dynamics of phyllosphere microbial communities during this process remain poorly understood. Poplar leaf litter decomposition is particularly critical due to its widespread plantation use. While prior studies...

<h4>Background</h4>Transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) has become one of the most widely used procedures for lumbar spinal disorders. However, it is still unclear whether TLIF with unilateral pedicle screw (PS) fixation is as effective as that with bilateral PS fixation. We per...

Ratoon rice is a sustainable planting model, and its yield is closely linked to the light and temperature use efficiency. The photothermal quotient (PQ), a key parameter for evaluating the light and temperature use efficiency, significantly influences ratoon rice yield. However, research on how diff...

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as powerful regulators of adipocyte differentiation, fat metabolism and gene expression. However, the functional roles and mechanisms of lncRNAs in these processes remain unclear. Here, we identified a novel antisense transcript, named APMAP-AS, transcribe...

Objectives: Tuberculosis (TB) poses a significant threat to global public health, particularly, among elderly individuals. This study aimed to provide a comprehensive analysis of the patterns and temporal trends in the global disease burden of HIV-negative TB among adults aged ≥60 years from 1990 to...

Follistatin (FST) is an important regulator of skeletal muscle growth and adipose deposition through its ability to bind to several members of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily, and thus may be a good candidate for future animal breeding programs. However, the molecular mechanisms...
