The counter value of the slave node is synchronized to that of the master node through the embedded IEEE 1588 protocol over the communication link. In order to ensure the counter clocks have the same frequency in both nodes, which is recovered from the FC communication link, the clock phase difference is measured by the digital dual mixer time difference technique and the data recovery technique in the Gigabyte Transceiver, and then it is compensated by the mixed-mode clock manager in FPGAs.

Adipocytes surround breast cancer cells and may participate in cell‒cell interactions in the breast microenvironment. However, little is currently known about how adipocytes influence the biological behavior of the surrounding breast cancer cells.

Methods: The serum HE4 levels of 190 healthy subjects and 182 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) (61 adult-onset LN [aLN], 39 childhood-onset LN [cLN], and 82 SLE without LN) were determined using Architect HE4 kits and an Abbott ARCHITECT i2000SR Immunoassay Analyzer.
Results: Serum HE4 level was significantly higher in the aLN patients (median, 85.
Purpose: Although papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC) has a relatively favorable prognosis, a small number of patients with lymph node or distant metastasis have a poor prognosis. Owing to the complex typing and heterogeneity of PRCC, it remains difficult to provide risk stratification. The objective of our research was to identify potential markers of PRCC prognosis.

However, the relationship between microorganisms and flavor formation in traditional fermented grass carp products is still unclear. In this study, the diversity and succession of microbial communities and the variation of volatile compounds during natural fermentation of grass carp were analyzed using high-throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA and headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS), respectively.

The related indicators, including pH, water activity (Aw), volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), thiobarbituric acid (TBA), free amino acids (FAAs), microbial community, and volatile compounds were determined. fermentation samples (LP) and natural fermentation samples (NF) were used as controls.

The natural fermentation (NF) and fermentation with (LF) samples were used as control. The results showed that with increasing fermentation time, the pH and water activity (Aw) in each fermented grass carp sample gradually decreased, while the a-amino nitrogen (ANN), thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS), total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), biogenic amines (BAs), and harmful microbial gradually increased.

Bone morphogenetic protein/retinoic acid inducible neural-specific 3 (BRINP3) has been reported to regulate the differentiation of osteoblasts. However, the role that BRINP3 plays in the progression of osteosarcoma remains unknown.

Significant differences were revealed in the E-nose and sensory analysis results of the aroma characteristics of grass carp mince samples washed via different washing processes, while fifty-seven volatile compounds (thirteen aldehydes, eighteen alcohols, two ketones, eighteen hydrocarbons, two aromatic compounds, one furan, and two other compounds) and twenty volatile compounds (five aldehydes, four ketones, six alcohols, four esters, and one acid) were identified via HS-SPME-GC-MS and HS-GC-IMS of the Raw and washed grass carp mince samples, respectively. All these techniques revealed that the types and relative contents of volatile compounds in the grass carp mince decreased significantly and differently after each of the four washing processes.
