A multicentre, prospective cohort study comparing two endoscopic procedures for the treatment of gastric muscularis propria lesions.

To date, no prospective study has been conducted to compare the safety and effectiveness of endoscopic snare resection with an elastic band (ESR-EB) and endoscopic snare resection with a transparent cap (ESR-C) for treating gastric muscularis propria lesions. We aimed to compare the safety and effectiveness of ESR-EB with those of ESR-C for gastric muscularis propria lesions less than 10 mm in diameter. A total of 64 patients were enrolled prospectively from May 2023 to November 2023 at Shenzhen Hospital of Southern Medical University, the First Affiliated Hospital of Shantou University, and the People's Hospital of Zhongshan City.

Deciphering core microbiota in rhizosphere soil and roots of healthy and -infected potato plants from various locations.

Black scurf caused by severely affects potato production. Through amplification of V3-V4 and ITS1-5f variable regions of 16S and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) rRNA, the study was based on the location (Kunming, Qujing, and Zhaotong), plant components (rhizosphere soil and roots), and sample types (healthy and diseased) to assess the diversity of bacterial and fungal communities. We found plant components significantly influence microbial diversity, with rhizosphere soil being more diverse than roots, and the microbial community in the root is mainly derived from the rhizosphere soil.

Effects of Chemical and Biological Fungicide Applications on Sexual Sporulation of AG-3 TB on Tobacco.

AG-3 TB primarily causes tobacco target spot disease by producing a large number of sexual spores. However, inducing sexual spore formation under in vitro conditions has been challenging, impeding further research on its control. In this study, field experiments were conducted to assess the effects of different concentrations of chemical and biological fungicides on the production of sexual spores of AG-3 TB on tobacco plants.

Morphological and molecular characterization of Rhizoctonia solani AG-3 associated with tobacco target leaf spot in China.

Tobacco target leaf spot is a leaf disease that seriously affects both the quantity and quality of commercial tobacco crops and has caused huge economic losses in many countries and also pandemics in China since 2006. The anastomosis group-3 (AG-3) pathogen is divided into different subgroups namely AG-3 PT (potato type), AG-3TB (tobacco type), and AG-3 TM (tomato type), based on their host and the combined data from the ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (rDNA-ITS), rDNA intergenic spacer 1 (rDNA-IGS1) regions, and translation elongation factor 1-α (tef-1α) gene. In this study, we collected tobacco leaves showing target spot symptom from four fields in China.

Development and validation of an artificial intelligence-based system for predicting colorectal cancer invasion depth using multi-modal data.

Objectives: Accurate endoscopic optical prediction of the depth of cancer invasion is critical for guiding an optimal treatment approach of large sessile colorectal polyps but was hindered by insufficient endoscopists expertise and inter-observer variability. We aimed to construct a clinically applicable artificial intelligence (AI) system for the identification of presence of cancer invasion in large sessile colorectal polyps.

Methods: A deep learning-based colorectal cancer invasion calculation (CCIC) system was constructed.

Identification of miRNAs Contributing to the Broad-Spectrum and Durable Blast Resistance in the Yunnan Local Rice Germplasm.

MicroRNAs are 20-24 nucleotide non-coding RNAs and play important roles in plant-environment interactions. In recent years, many microRNAs (miRNAs) have been found to regulate rice immunity against rice blast fungus. However, there are limited studies about miRNAs that directly target resistance () genes to regulate rice immunity.
