BackgroundThymoma is often associated with myasthenia gravis (MG), and the resection of thymoma improves myasthenic symptoms in patients with thymoma and MG (TMG), but some patients still have no relief. Through proteomic analysis, we examined preoperative serum samples from patients with TMG to ide...

Applied model research is an important approach to low-carbon supply chain optimization, and the key of model optimization is the game and contract selection among the participants. Based on the above background, the two-stage Stackelberg game model is used to provide decision-making advice for the...

Parvoviruses are a group of single-stranded DNA viruses that lack an envelope and are widely distributed in both vertebrates and invertebrates. When they infect a host cell, parvoviruses take over the cell’s translational machinery to support the viral genome replication and proteins synthesis, foll...

Silicon nitride (SiN) plays a critical role in silicon photonics because of its lower refractive index, low waveguide loss, broad operating bandwidth and compatibility with complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) fabrication process. Here, we propose a polarization-independent sub-wavelength...

To enhance the foaming properties of soy protein isolate (SPI), SPI was subjected to ball milling at varying ball-to-material ratios (8:1, 14:1, and 20:1) for 150 min at a rotational speed of 96 r/min, using untreated SPI as a control. Effects of ball milling on the structural and foaming properties...

Recent findings reveal that macrophages actively control clearance by desialylating target cells via NEU1 and releasing cathepsin-cleaved calreticulin (CALR) to mark them for phagocytosis. This uncovers a dual role for CALR as immune activator or repressor, depending on its form and context, with di...

To overcome the limitations in the perception performance of individual robots and homogeneous robot teams, this paper presents a distributed multi-robot collaborative SLAM method based on air–ground cross-domain cooperation. By integrating environmental perception data from UAV and UGV teams across...

A detailed, spatially explicit fire inventory is essential for improving our understanding of biomass burning and for supporting the formulation of targeted fire mitigation policies. However, such fire inventories remain limited, especially in tropical regions. Existing active fire (AF) products der...

The G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) regulates downstream genes by binding to a heterotrimeric G protein. However, the function of sex peptide receptor (SPR) in lepidopteran species is mostly unknown. Understanding the physiological functions of SPR in insects is essential for exploring new insecti...

Vehicle accidents, particularly PV-PV collisions, result in significant property damage and driver injuries, causing substantial economic losses and health risks. Most existing studies focus on macro-level predictions, such as accident frequency, but lack detailed collision-level analysis, which lim...

The colostrum of sows contains a large number of lymphocytes originating from breast tissue. However, the mechanism of lymphocyte migration across the mammary epithelium remains unclear. Hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy are known to influence lymphocyte homing to the breast. In this study, we...

This study aims to develop a high-hardness, wear-resistant Ni–Co–Cr–SiC composite coating to address increasingly stringent substrate protection requirements. The Ni–Co–Cr–SiC composite coating was fabricated via composite electrodeposition. The dispersion strengthening mechanism of SiC particles wa...

Understanding the true cost effectiveness of emissions trading schemes (ETSs) is essential for advancing climate policy. In this study, we contribute by introducing the trade effect—the mechanism through which ETSs promote convergence in marginal abatement costs (MACs)—and by developing a novel empi...
