A G4P[13] Porcine Rotavirus a Strain with Genomic Features Suggestive of Reassortment: Isolation, Genomic Characterization, and Pathogenicity in Piglets

Porcine rotavirus A (PoRVA) is an important cause of diarrhea in neonatal piglets, resulting in significant economic losses in the swine industry. In this study, a PoRVA strain, designated QY, was isolated from diarrheic piglets and systematically characterized. The virus was pro...

A Regionalized Uncertainty Budget for Sea-Level Trend and Acceleration Estimates in the China Seas and Their Adjacent Oceans

Accurate estimation of regional sea-level trends and accelerations requires adequate quantification of their uncertainties. However, measurement and processing uncertainties in regional estimates remain poorly characterized. We constructed an error variance–covariance matrix inco...

Dual‐Site Covalent Targeting Enables BD2‐Selective BET Inhibition With Potent Antitumor Activity in Mice

ABSTRACT Bromodomain and extra‐terminal (BET) proteins are validated therapeutic targets for cancer, but clinical translation of pan‐BET inhibitors is limited by dose‐limiting toxicities from non‐selective inhibition of BD1/BD2 domains. Herein, we report the first‐ever domain‐sel...

A chemoresistance-associated proliferation gene signature identified by single-cell and machine learning analysis predicts prognosis in high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma

Background High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) features extensive intratumoral heterogeneity, frequent chemoresistance and poor prognosis. Tumor proliferation kinetics reflected by tumor doubling time (TDT) are linked to therapeutic response, yet molecular drivers of chem...

A GRX-SOD module maintains superoxide homeostasis and meristem development in maize

Abstract The continuous initiation of plant aerial organs relies on the maintenance of dynamic stem cell homeostasis within the shoot apical meristem (SAM). Although reactive oxygen species (ROS) have emerged as crucial signals determining cell fate, how plants precisely maintain...

Modulation of High‐Temperature Events in the Pearl River Delta by Tropical Cyclones With Different Track Types

ABSTRACT This study investigates how different tropical cyclone (TC) track types modulate high‐temperature events in the Pearl River Delta (PRD) of China and how these effects may change under global warming, using observational and reanalysis datasets together with high‐resoluti...

Mutations in EnvZ, KPC, and OmpK36 contribute to the evolution from ceftazidime-avibactam heteroresistance to stable resistance in carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae

Antibiotic heteroresistance, an unstable phenotype wherein a minority-resistant subpopulation coexists with a majority-susceptible population, can evolve to stable resistance following in vivo antibiotic exposure, thereby substantially increasing the risk of treatment failure. Ho...

Anti-cancer drug clinical research

Abstract Malignant tumors are major diseases that seriously threaten human health, and the unmet clinical demand for treatments in the field of oncology has been persistently large. The research and development of new antineoplastic drugs has become a powerful means to address th...

Early inflammatory response is associated with antibiotic treatment outcomes in acute phlegmonous appendicitis: a retrospective cohort study

Acute phlegmonous appendicitis is considered an intermediate inflammatory subtype between uncomplicated and complicated appendicitis. Although nonoperative management is increasingly accepted for uncomplicated appendicitis, evidence for phlegmonous appendicitis remains limited. T...

Prevalence and characteristics of colonic diverticulosis: a retrospective cross-sectional study in Southern China

Abstract Background Recent literature indicated that the prevalence of colonic diverticulosis in China is increasing. However, there is limited information on colonic diverticulosis in China. Our study aims to determine the prevalence and characteristics of colonic diverticulosis...

Neoadjuvant Anbenitamab and HB1801 in ERBB2 -Positive Breast Cancer

IMPORTANCE The combination of neoadjuvant taxanes with trastuzumab and pertuzumab remains the cornerstone treatment strategy in ERBB2 -positive breast cancer. Anbenitamab (a ERBB2 -biparatopic antibody that induces profound receptor clustering) and HB1801 (a solvent-free albumin-...

Evaluative performance of triglyceride-glucose-frailty index versus surrogate insulin resistance indices for advanced cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome, cardiometabolic multimorbidity, and mortality: the role of estimated glomerular filtration rate

Cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome and cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CMM) carry substantial mortality, yet whether a composite index integrating insulin resistance and frailty shows stronger associations with advanced CKM syndrome, CMM, and mortality than convention...

Microenvironment‐Heterogeneity‐Driven Self‐Adaptive CuMo Diatomic Nanozyme Hydrogel for NIR‐II Photoacoustic Imaging‐Assisted Periodontitis Theranostics

ABSTRACT Conventional periodontitis management relies on invasive, operator‐dependent diagnostic methods and treatments that do not adapt to the spatially heterogeneous and evolving periodontal microenvironment. To address these limitations, a heterogeneous microenvironment‐respo...

Inhibition of ERK5 activity ameliorates osteoarthritis by suppressing NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated chondrocyte pyroptosis

Abstract Osteoarthritis (OA) is a widespread degenerative joint disorder manifesting as chronic pain, functional impairment, and progressive disability, imposing a substantial burden on global public health. Despite extensive research, the precise molecular pathways underlying OA...

2D Covalent Organic Frameworks as Robust n‐Type Organic Mixed Ionic‐Electronic Conductors for Electrochemical Transistors

ABSTRACT Organic mixed ionic‐electronic conductors (OMIECs) with exclusive electrochemical modulation and coupling between ions and electrons have exhibited intriguing efficiencies in bioelectronics, logic circuits, and wearable devices. However, OMIECs are typically linear polym...

Development and benchmark validation of PubChat for PubMed-grounded multilingual biomedical literature retrieval

The rapid growth of biomedical literature has rendered traditional systematic reviews unsustainable. Although large language models (LLMs) offer automation potential, citation fabrication and unreliable evidence discrimination remain critical barriers. Here, using PubChat as a Pu...

UPMA: unspecified pretraining and modular adaptation for context-aware target delineation in adaptive esophageal radiotherapy

Abstract Esophageal cancer, a serious malignancy, is primarily treated with radiotherapy (RT). Accurate delineation of gross tumor volume (GTV) and clinical target volume (CTV) is essential, yet manual contouring is time-consuming and automatic methods remain challenging. Adaptiv...

Exploring baryon semileptonic decays through polarization and entanglement

Abstract The unitarity of the Cabibbo–Kobayashi–Maskawa (CKM) matrix is a cornerstone of the standard model (SM). Precise tests of this unitarity require independent determinations of its elements, such as | V us |, which governs the transition between strange and up quarks. Curr...
