Purpose: Stanford Type B Aortic Dissection (TBAD), a critical aortic disease, has exhibited stable mortality rates over the past decade. However, diagnostic approaches for TBAD during routine health check-ups are currently lacking. This study focused on developing a model to improve the diagnosis in a population.

This study aims to assess the value of the left atrioventricular coupling index (LACI) assessed by three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) for predicting primary outcome in AL-CA.
Methods: Participants with biopsy-confirmed AL-CA from April 2022 to February 2024 were prospectively analysed.
Perfluorodecanoic acid (PFDA), a C10 fluorine-containing compound, is used widely and found to be present anywhere. However, whether it has reproductive toxicity for fetal Leydig cells and the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. PFDA was investigated for its effects on fetal Leydig cells (FLCs) following exposure to 0, 1, 2.

Here we present Single Cell Precision Nanocarrier Identification (SCP-Nano), an integrated experimental and deep learning pipeline to comprehensively quantify the targeting of nanocarriers throughout the whole mouse body at single-cell resolution. SCP-Nano reveals the tissue distribution patterns of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) after different injection routes at doses as low as 0.

The safe and stable operation of belt conveyor idlers is crucial not only for ensuring efficient coal production but also for safeguarding the lives of coal mine workers. Therefore, this paper proposes a method based on deep learning for real-time detection of conveyor idler faults.
