Reprogrammable MEMS-based fabry–perot pixel photomask
Our pioneering reprogrammable photomask based on microelectromechanical systems offers a pathway toward adaptive lithography that remains compatible with conventional stepper systems. In this work, we demonstrate for the first time optical patterning using a MEMS-based Fabry–Pero...

LTLGC: a multi strategy enhanced Logistic-Gauss circle algorithm for UAV path planning
As path planning tasks for UAVs in complex three dimensional environments place increasingly higher demands on solution accuracy, convergence robustness and dimensional scalability, the standard Logistic-Gauss Circle optimiser (LGC) struggles to effectively handle multi constrain...

Transcriptomic insights into age-associated extracellular matrix promotion of breast cancer
Aging is a key risk factor for breast cancer; however, the independent effects of the aged extracellular matrix (ECM) remain understudied. To address this, we developed a novel hybrid in vivo model that enables the independent investigation of age-related ECM influences on breast...

l -Malic acid is an important C4 platform chemical, but its direct production from raw lignocellulosic biomass by consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) remains constrained by biomass recalcitrance. Here, we developed an integrated lignin-side and sugar-side engineering strategy in the...

Prognostic value of RDW and its derivatives in ICU patients with hypertensive chronic kidney disease
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) complicated with hypertension constitutes a major global public health burden. Early identification of reliable prognostic biomarkers is essential to optimize clinical management and reduce mortality among these patients. A total of 6,731 intensive ca...

Gut microbial and metabolic biomarkers for early-onset colorectal cancer
Early-onset colorectal cancer (EO-CRC) is a growing global health challenge with poorly understood etiology. While gut microbiota and metabolites are implicated in colorectal carcinogenesis, EO-CRC-associated signatures remain poorly characterized. This study presents the first l...

To evaluate the association of anatomical localization with early recurrence during 24-hour telemetry among patients achieving acute electrophysiology laboratory (EP-lab) success, and secondarily with acute EP-lab outcome and target PVC detection in the overall cohort. This retro...
- Health & MedicineOpen access
This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to critically assess and compare the survival rates and the spectrum of biological and technical complications associated with veneered zirconia-ceramic versus metal-ceramic restorations. By synthesizing evidence from randomized clin...

New robotic total knee arthroplasty (TKA) technology enables force-controlled pre-resection joint gap assessment. Its accuracy across surgeons and patient factors remains unknown. This study evaluated how accurately this technology achieved planned joint gaps and whether accuracy...
- Climate & EnvironmentOpen access
We develop a unified theoretical architecture for nuclear physics and peaceful nuclear-energy science from three physical axioms: finite microscopic localization, a dynamical spacetime-vacuum substrate, and persistent causal source–response coupling. Finite nuclei are formulated...
