The late Neoproterozoic tholeiitic-boninitic lavas and minor magnesian andesites cropping out in the Kurai Ridge, southeast of the Gorny Altai terrane, represent magmatic products of the nascent Kuznetsk-Altai intra-oceanic island arc southwest off the Siberian continent. Samples of these rocks can...

BackgroundEsophageal cancer (EC) remains a significant clinical challenge, characterized by its aggressive nature and poor prognosis. Current therapeutic strategies, including targeted therapies, have limitations due to the complex interplay between tumor heterogeneity and the tumor microenvironment...

At the latest geodynamic stage that is characterized by forces and processes of the last 90 Ma the lithosphere of Asia has been reactivated due to four main force factors: 1) mantle melting anomalies, 2) subduction-related interaction between the Pacific plates and the continental eastern margin, 3)...

Evidence suggests that non-dominant side training benefits athletic performance. However, there is a lack of systematic reviews on the effects of non-dominant side training on athletes’ performance. This study aims to synthesize existing research on the impact of non-dominant side training on athlet...

Accretionary orogens form along convergent plate margins due to the ongoing subduction of oceanic lithosphere, and comprise accretionary prisms, magmatic arcs, back-arc domains, ophiolitic mélanges and possibly oceanic plateaus and continental fragments [Condie, 2007; Cawood et al., 2009]. Based on...

The modern theory of the evolving Earth is based on integrated isotopic data obtained for the accessible part of the planet and cosmic bodies, in which the U–Pb isotope system plays a key role. The theory is tested by the isotope systematics of oceanic basalt sources. The origin of continental volca...

The distribution of urban tree species shapes spatial differences in urban eco-environmental benefits and liveability. Although very high-resolution (VHR) multispectral optical satellite imagery has significant potential for detailed urban tree species classification, few studies have reliably class...

As a core component of thermal systems in electric vehicles, the scroll compressor plays a crucial role in energy saving and emission reduction by enhancing its performance. The uniformity of pressure within the symmetrical working chambers of the scroll compressor significantly affected the work ef...

Continental crust is formed above subduction zones by well-known process of “juvenile crust growth”. This new crust is in modern Earth assembled into continents by two ways: (i) short-lived collisions of continental blocks with the Laurussian or later Eurasian continent along the “Alpine Himalayan c...

Neutron transmutation doping (NTD) modifies the electrical properties of semiconductor materials by irradiating them with neutrons to introduce dopants with high uniformity. Although NTD has been widely utilized for Si semiconductors, its application to SiC, a wide-bandgap material well suited for h...

Tectonic-magmatic reworking of accretionary wedges is a key process responsible for differentiation and stabilization of continental crustal in accretionary orogens. This generic problem can be exemplified by magmatic evolution of the Chinese Altai which represents a high-grade core of the world...

Curved mountain belts, commonly referred as to oroclines that result from bending of quasi-linear orogenic belts, have fascinated generations of geologists. Such structures are widely recognized in modern and ancient orogens, and are fundamentally important for understanding geodynamics of convergen...

Over the centuries, people have used healing mud (peloids) to draw toxins out of the body, boost the immune system, cure psoriasis, acne, depression, and hair loss. The beauty industry has used mud-clay masks, body wraps, soaps, and baths. The useful properties of mud were established empirically. T...

Shortages and fluctuations in precipitation are influential limiting factors for the sustainable cultivation of rain-fed winter wheat on the Loess Plateau of China. Plastic film mulching is one of the most effective water management practices to improve soil moisture, and may be useful in the Loess...

A microcavity laser is reported using dye-doped cholesteric liquid crystals (CLCs) filled in a glass capillary with photo-alignment polyimide films. This laser runs based on the properties that a CLC has a refractive index much higher than that of glass, so whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) laser and di...

In Asia, widespread early detection through endoscopic screening has resulted in higher diagnosis rates of asymptomatic duodenal-type follicular lymphoma (DFL). However, no standardized guidelines exist for diagnosing and managing DFL, and ongoing debates persist regarding the optimal treatment stra...

Introduction. Transtension is a system of stresses that tends to cause oblique extension, i.e. combined extension and strike slip. Syn-volcanic transtensional deformations of the lithosphere may provide two possible scenarios for control of magmatic processes. One scenario assumes ascending sub-lith...
