Mass drainage is frequently observed in solar filaments. During filament eruptions, falling material most likely flows along magnetic field lines, which may provide important clues for the magnetic structures of filaments. Here we study three filament eruptions exhibiting significant mass draining,...

Neuroblastoma is a profoundly heterogenous extracranial solid tumor in pediatric patients. Elevated risk grade of neuroblastoma has been correlated with unsatisfactory prognosis and resistance to chemotherapy. Despite multimodal therapies exploited for killing neuroblastoma tumor cells, in high-risk...

Under a warming–humidifying climate, precipitation patterns on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau have significantly shifted due to a water imbalance in its solid–liquid structure. Using monthly precipitation data (1961–2023), we analyzed the spatial distribution and dynamics of 200 mm and 400 mm isohyets th...
