The sound speed profile (SSP) is an important feature in the field of ocean acoustics. The accurate estimation of SSP is significant for the development of underwater position, communication, and associated fundamental marine research. The Res-SACNN model is proposed for SSP inversion based on the c...

Low-voltage distribution systems frequently experience leakage current accidents. However, it is challenging to distinguish fault characteristics in abnormal operating conditions, such as electric shock to biological organisms and three-phase imbalance, which leads to the improper operation of exist...

Insulin resistance (IR) is the most critical pathophysiological basis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The mechanisms underlying IR are extremely complex, with variations observed among different patients and different tissues. Current research has gradually revealed characteristics of the gut mi...

In optical communication systems, optical half-band filters are essential for efficient spectral separation, necessitating stringent performance criteria such as a wide spectral range, low insertion loss, and minimal crosstalk. This paper proposes a broadband optical half-band filter based on a casc...

Hollow-core negative-curvature fibres have been the focus of current research, but how to reduce the loss of hollow-core negative-curvature fibres is a serious problem. This paper proposes a new structure of hollow-core negative-curvature fibres, that is numerically simulated using the finite-elemen...

Abstract Background The pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS) and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE—an animal model of MS) is primarily mediated by T cells. However, recent studies have only focused on interleukin (IL)‐17‐secreting CD4+ T‐helper cells, also known as Th17 cells. This s...

Summary: The E3 ubiquitin (UB) ligase Parkin utilizes a Ring-Between-Ring (RBR) domain to mediate UB transfer to substrate proteins, and mutations affecting Parkin catalysis promote cancer and are associated with Parkinson’s disease. An essential role of Parkin is to initiate mitophagy by ubiquitina...

Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) demonstrates escalating prevalence among adolescents as a maladaptive behavior characterized by deliberate self-harm, yet its neurobiological underpinnings remain elusive. Spontaneous self-injurious behavior (SIB) in nonhuman primates (NHPs) emerges as a clinically rel...
