Extended state observer-based backstepping control for nonlinear systems under FDI attacks.

In this paper, a novel extended state observer-based backstepping control scheme is proposed for strict-feedback nonlinear systems with unmeasured states suffering from false data injection (FDI) attacks. An extended state observer is designed to achieve simultaneous online estimation of system states and FDI attacks. A secure output feedback tracking control scheme with an attack compensation method is proposed to reduce the influence of FDI attacks.

Development and evaluation of optimized PCR and indirect ELISA for the detection of in dairy cows.

Introduction: () is a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen, whose increasing virulence and antibiotic resistance negatively impact dairy cow health and productivity, raising concerns in livestock health management. To mitigate this risk, rapid and reliable diagnostic methods for detection are essential. Currently, detection methods for are underdeveloped, prompting us to develop both pathogenic and serological detection methods, including an optimized PCR technique and an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (I-ELISA).

Identification of novel hub gene and biological pathways associated with ferroptosis in In-Stent restenosis.

Background: In-stent restenosis (ISR) is one of the most significant complications following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Ferroptosis is a novel cell death mode characterized by iron overload and lipid peroxidation. However, the role of ferroptosis in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) regulating neointimal formation during restenosis remains unclear.

Strategies for Survival of in Host Cells.

, a common pathogen, is capable of producing a significant array of toxins and can develop biofilms or small colony variants (SCVs) to evade detection by the immune system and resist the effects of antibiotics. Its ability to persist for extended periods within host cells has led to increased research interest. This review examines the process of internalization of , highlighting the impact of its toxins and adhesion factors on host cells.

Microneedle-Array-Mediated Transdermal Delivery of GCV-Functionalized Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-8 Nanoparticles for KSHV Treatment.

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is a variety of the human gamma-herpesvirus that often leads to the occurrence of malignant tumors. In addition, the occurrence of Kaposi's sarcoma is a major cause of death among AIDS patients. Ganciclovir (GCV) is the most widely used drug against KSHV infection in the clinic.

Available Oocytes rate as a predictor of clinical pregnancy outcomes in controlled ovarian stimulation: A retrospective analysis of 7933 Cycles.

This study used the concept of available oocytes rate (AOR) to evaluate the effect of COS and to identify factors that influence oocyte development and clinical pregnancy (CP).

Methods: Medical data of 7933 patients who underwent oocyte retrieval and ART treatments was retrospectively reviewed at Fujian Provincial Maternity and Children's Hospital from January 2013 to December 2019.

Apply the information-motivation-behavioral model to explore the relationship between oral health literacy and oral health behaviors among community-dwelling older adults.

Objective: Oral health is a critical area in healthy aging. Oral health literacy (OHL) plays an important role in improving oral health behaviors and oral health status. However, few studies have investigated OHL among community-dwelling older adults and the influential mechanism of OHL on oral health behaviors has not been clarified.

Vitamin D has therapeutic effects on obesity and hyperandrogenemia in PCOS mouse model induced by low dose DHEA and high-fat diet.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most complex and common reproductive endocrine disease among reproductive age women. This study aimed to investigate the effects of vitamin D (Vit.D) in a PCOS mouse model induced by low dose DHEA and high-fat diet.

Case report: Successful PGT-M based on the identification of a spliceogenic variant in the gene through Minigene assay.

With the development of high-throughput sequencing, the genetic etiology of many diseases has been revealed. However, this has also led to the categorization of many variants as variants of uncertain significance (VUSs), presenting a major challenge in genetic counseling. A couple with a history of adverse pregnancies sought assisted reproductive technology.

Sintilimab plus chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab biosimilar IBI305 in EGFR-mutated non-squamous NSCLC patients who progressed on EGFR TKI therapy: A China-based cost-effectiveness analysis.

Background: This study aims to compare the cost-effectiveness of sintilimab in combination with chemotherapy, with or without bevacizumab biosimilar IBI305, versus chemotherapy alone for patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have progressed on tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment from the perspective of the Chinese healthcare system.

Methods: 10-year Markov model was developed using a 21-day cycle length. Transition probabilities were derived from the ORIENT-31 trial, while cost and health state utilities were obtained from publicly databases, local hospitals, and published literature.

Role of Rab GTPases in Bacteria Escaping from Vesicle Trafficking of Host Cells.

Most bacteria will use their toxins to interact with the host cell, causing damage to the cell and then escaping from it. When bacteria enter the cell, they will be transported via the endosomal pathway. Rab GTPases are involved in bacterial transport as major components of endosomes that bind to their downstream effector proteins.

Nanobody peptide conjugate: a novel CD163 based broad neutralizing strategy against porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus.

Background: Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a prevalent swine pathogen, which has caused adverse impact on the global swine industry for almost 30 years. However, due to the immune suppression caused by the virus and the genetic diversity in PRRSV, no virus-targeting broad neutralizing strategy has been successfully developed yet. Antiviral peptide and nanobody have attracted extensive attention with the ease in production and the efficacy in practice.

Improving structural and functional properties of starch-catechin-based green nanofiber mats for active food packaging by electrospinning and crosslinking techniques.

The hydrophilic and low mechanical properties limited the application of starch-based films. In this work, a hydrophobic starch-based nanofiber mat was first successfully prepared from aqueous solution at room temperature by using electrospinning and glutaraldehyde (GTA) vapor phase crosslinking techniques for active packaging applications. Catechin (CAT) was immobilized in the nanofibers by electrospinning, resulting in higher thermal stability (T = 315.

Cr(VI) induces ferroptosis in DF-1 cells by simultaneously perturbing iron homeostasis of ferritinophagy and mitophagy.

Hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] is an environmental pollutant known for its strong oxidizing and carcinogenic effects. However, its potential to induce ferroptosis in poultry remains poorly understood. This study aims to investigate the induction of ferroptosis by Cr(VI) in DF-1 cells and elucidate the underlying mechanisms.

Clinical Impact of Comprehensive Molecular Profiling in Adolescents and Young Adults with Sarcoma.

Sarcomas are a heterogenous group of tumours that commonly carry poor prognosis with limited therapeutic options. Adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with sarcoma are a unique and understudied patient population that have only achieved modest survival gains compared to other groups. We present our institutional experience of AYAs with sarcoma who underwent comprehensive molecular profiling (CMP) via either large-panel targeted DNA sequencing or whole genome and transcriptome sequencing and evaluated the feasibility and clinical impact of this approach.

Effect of male HBV infection on the outcomes of IVF/ICSI cycles: a retrospective cohort study based on propensity score matching.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of male hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection on male fertility, embryonic development, and in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) outcomes. We performed a retrospective cohort study that included 3965 infertile couples who received fresh embryo transfer cycles for the first time at the Fujian Maternity and Child Health Hospital (Fuzhou, China) from January 2018 to January 2021. Infertile couples were categorized based on their HBV infection status into the HBV group (HBV-positive men and HBV-negative women) and the control group (HBV-negative couples).
