The Combined Strategy of Baicalin and Oxacillin Sodium Against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus: Biofilm Inhibition, Virulence Attenuation and In Vivo Anti-Infection Efficacy

Over the past few years, considerable scholarly interest has been directed toward the synergistic application of natural compounds alongside conventional antibiotics to address infections stemming from multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens. The primary objective of this research is...

Hedging without landing: domestic regulatory friction in Japan and South Korea caught between U.S. and EU digital mandates

Through a comparative institutional analysis of Japan and South Korea, this article examines whether middle powers can engage in hedging behaviour by simultaneously accommodating competing U.S. and EU digital mandates within their domestic legal orders. The article argues that du...

Understanding the coupling mechanism of solutes and vacancies in Al and Mg

The solute–vacancy interactions play a crucial role in determining the strength of alloys, yet their underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we introduce a novel descriptor-based framework to understand the mechanisms from an electronic structure perspective. By utilizing int...

The Adaptive Solution of High-Frequency Helmholtz Equations via Multi-Grade Deep Learning

Abstract The Helmholtz equation is fundamental for modeling wave propagation in acoustics, electromagnetics, and geophysics; however, high-frequency regimes remain notoriously difficult due to the severe numerical “pollution effect.” We propose FD-MGDL, an adaptive framework that...

Unveiling the Synergistic Mechanism of Hardness and Toughness Enhancement in HPHT-Synthesized WAlB

Abstract Balancing hardness and toughness in ceramics to ensure reliable performance under extreme conditions remains a central and actively pursued research challenge. Recently, layered boride MAB phases have attracted increasing attention due to their excellent combination of m...

Study on the Differentiation of Microbial Communities Under Different Soil Types in the Typical Black Soil Area of Songnen Plain

Soil type imposes multilayered environmental filtering via physical structure, chemical properties, and resource availability, shaping microbial community assembly. Using 70 samples (black soil n = 27, meadow soil n = 32, and brown soil n = 11) from a typical black soil region of...

Visualized self-propelled nanorobots overcome tumor barriers for boosted photothermal-nanocatalytic synergistic therapy against triple-negative breast cancer

Conventional nanozyme-based therapeutics for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) are severely hindered by insufficient tumor penetration and lysosomal degradation-induced enzyme inactivation, crippling therapeutic efficacy. Herein, we rationally construct visualized dual-propell...

A CFD Simulation Method for Vehicle Seat Heating and Ventilation Considering the Multilayer Seat Structure

Automotive thermal-comfort studies commonly focus on interactions between occupants and cabin air, although the seat forms the principal sustained contact interface between an occupant and a vehicle. This study presents a coupled computational fluid dynamics (CFD) framework that...

Solitary necrotic nodule of the liver: a single-centre retrospective CEUS study of 87 lesions

To retrospectively characterise the sonographic features of solitary necrotic nodules of the liver (SNNL) on conventional ultrasound (US) and contrast‑enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), and to identify imaging features supporting differential diagnosis. Eighty‑one consecutive patients w...

Dielectrophoretic Assembly of BaTiO 3 Radiative Cooling Textiles for Proactive Urban Cooling

ABSTRACT The urban heat island (UHI) effect threatens sustainable urban development. Passive daytime radiative cooling textiles are promising but face a trade‐off between optical performance and mechanical–chemical stability. Here, we report the first use of dielectrophoretic ass...

Ancient mitochondrial genomes of Erlitou dogs reveal diverse population dynamics during early state formation in China

The Erlitou site (c. 1750 to 1520 cal BC) in the Central Plains of China is widely regarded as the earliest state-level society in East Asia, yet the population history of domestic dogs within this key archaeological context remains poorly understood. Here, we analyze 21 ancient...

Optical phased array LiDAR chips towards polarization-resolved 4D sensing

Optical phased array (OPA)-based LiDAR technology provides high-speed, solid-state sensing for autonomous vehicles, robotics, and aerial systems. However, current OPA-based LiDAR platforms lack the ability to accurately recognize and classify materials, limiting their effectivene...

Reversible Information Encryption Based on Ag/TiO2 Hierarchical Plasmonic Structures

Abstract The escalating threat of information leakage necessitates the development of advanced, dynamic, and reversible encryption technologies beyond static optical encoding. Herein, we report a reversible information encryption platform based on Ag/TiO2 hierarchical plasmonic s...

Development and validation of an interpretable prognostic model for in-hospital GCS-based neurological recovery after intracerebral hemorrhage in young and middle-aged adults: a multicenter retrospective cohort study

Prognostic tools for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) are largely derived from older or mixed-age cohorts and rarely incorporate lifestyle factors, limiting their relevance to young and middle-aged adults. We aimed to develop and externally evaluate an interpretable model for unfav...

Heterogeneous social participation profiles and socioecological correlates among community-dwelling older adults: a latent profile analysis

Abstract Background Social participation in later life is often summarized using an aggregate score, which may obscure distinct configurations of everyday, social, and volunteering activities. This study aimed to identify latent social participation profiles among community-dwell...

Through-Space-Conjugated Viologen Cyclophanes for Single-Molecule Junctions

Abstract Molecular electronics offers a promising route toward device miniaturization beyond the limits of silicon-based technologies, but the rational design of molecular components with stable and tunable charge transport remains challenging. Through-space-conjugated (TSC) viol...

Elevational Differences in Plant Growth Traits, Litter Decomposition, and Soil Bacterial Communities During Deyeuxia angustifolia Encroachment in Alpine Tundra

Graminoid encroachment in alpine tundra is often reduced to a simple rise in dominant-species cover, leaving open whether this aboveground shift is coupled to belowground soil conditioning. Here, we tracked the encroachment front of Deyeuxia angustifolia (Kom.) Y.L.Chang in the C...

A photosensitive energetic material via pressure-induced phase transition of NH4N3

Developing next-generation energetic materials combining ultrahigh energy density with safe, controllable ignition is critical. Using the CALYPSO method and first-principles calculations, we systematically investigated the high-pressure structural evolution of ammonium azide (NH4...

Structural Analysis of an Inulin-Type Fructan from Ophiopogon japonicus and Its Immunomodulatory Properties

A water-soluble, low-molecular-weight polysaccharide fraction, designated OJP-2, was extracted from the roots of Ophiopogon japonicus; its structural characteristics and immunomodulatory activity in macrophages were subsequently investigated. OJP-2 exhibited a narrow apparent mol...

HSPA5 enhances the survival rate of human cells by protecting mesenchymal stem cells from heat stress

Xenotransplantation of human cells into pigs holds great promise for the development of humanized animal models, large-scale production of human cells, and regeneration of humanized organs. However, the low efficiency of human cell transplantation severely hampers its clinical tr...
