Background: Women are particularly vulnerable to depression during pregnancy, which is one of the strongest risk factors for developing postpartum depression (PPD). Addressing antenatal depressive symptoms in these women is crucial for preventing PPD. However, little is known about the effectiveness of internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT) in preventing PPD in this high-risk group.

4-tert-octylphenol (4-t-OP) is an alkylphenolic environmental endocrine disruptor extensively distributed in the environment, posing potential hazards to living organisms. Research has demonstrated that 4-t-OP induces cardiac injury and abnormalities in embryonic development, which can adversely affect heart development. The excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) triggered by 4-t-OP may result in DNA damage.

Carbon source is an important nutrient for bacteria to sustain growth and often acts as a signal that modulates virulence expression. L-arabinose is produced by plants and plays an important role in regulating the global gene expression of bacteria. Previously, we have shown that L-arabinose induces a more severe systemic infection in -infected mice with normal microbiota, but does not affect the disease progression in mice with microbiota depleted by antibiotic treatment.

Chondrosarcoma-like malignant giant cell tumor (GCT) of the rib is an extremely rare and aggressive tumor, particularly in adolescents. This case report describes a 19-year-old female presenting with a GCT of the rib with chondrosarcomatous differentiation, highlighting the challenges posed by its unusual location and pathological complexity. Multidisciplinary diagnostic approaches, including advanced imaging, immunohistochemistry (IHC), and pathology, were essential for confirming the diagnosis.

Background: Neoadjuvant, endocrine, and targeted therapies have significantly improved the prognosis of breast cancer (BC). However, due to the high heterogeneity of cancer, some patients cannot benefit from existing treatments. Increasing evidence suggests that amino acids and their metabolites can alter the tumor malignant behavior through reshaping tumor microenvironment and regulation of immune cell function.

This paper presents a synthetic holographic stereogram printing approach that integrates neural radiance fields (NeRF) with the effective perspective images segmentation and mosaicking (EPISM) method. Sparse perspectives of a 3D scene are captured through random sampling and used to train a NeRF model with multi-resolution hash encoding, enabling rapid construction of an implicit scene representation. The EPISM method calculates the camera pose parameters needed for parallax images, which are rendered through the trained neural network.

Nitrogen heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are emerging as effective substitutes for conventional thiol ligands in surface functionalization of nanoparticles (NPs), offering exceptional stability to NPs under harsh conditions. However, the highly reactive feature of NHCs limits their use in introducing chemically active groups onto the NP surface. Herein, we develop a general yet robust strategy for the efficient surface functionalization of NPs with copolymer ligands bearing various functional groups.

The widespread use of synthetic phenolic antioxidants (SPAs) has led to their ubiquity and may contribute to multiple adverse health outcomes by affecting hormone level disruption. This study aimed to assess the exposure levels of SPAs in the plasma of the normoglycemic rural Chinese population, investigate the association of single and mixed pollutant exposures with sex hormones, and analyze the moderating role of body mass index (BMI) in these relationships. A cross-sectional study including 763 individuals with normal blood glucose from the Henan Rural cohort was conducted.

Monitoring cardiac rhythm is crucial for diagnosis of heart failure. However, the deficient sensitivity of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) sensors impede their application in monitoring of cardiac rhythm due to the limited piezoelectricity. Here, doping of CoFeO and aligning fibers were jointly adopted to enhance the piezoelectricity of PVDF, attributed to the transformation of α-PVDF to β-PVDF from 51.

Designing artificial enzymes for in vivo catalysis presents a great challenge due to biomacromolecule contamination, poor biodistribution, and insufficient substrate interaction. Herein, we developed single-chain polymeric nanoparticles with Cu/N-heterocyclic carbene active sites (SCNP-Cu) to function as peroxidase mimics for in vivo catalysis and chemo-dynamic therapy (CDT). Compared with the enzyme mimics based on unfolded linear polymer scaffold and multichain cross-linked scaffold, SCNP-Cu exhibits improved tumor accumulation and CDT efficiency both in vitro and in vivo.

Cognitive impairment is a significant complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the mechanisms underlying the development of cognitive dysfunction in individuals with T2DM remain elusive. Herein, we discussed the role of Bmal1, a core circadian rhythm-regulating gene, in the process of T2DM-associated cognitive dysfunction.

Generating computer-generated holograms (CGHs) for 3D scenes by learning-based methods can reconstruct arbitrary 3D scenes with higher quality and faster speed. However, the homogenization and difficulty of obtaining 3D high-resolution datasets seriously limit the generalization ability of the model. A novel approach is proposed to train 3D encoding models based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) using 2D image datasets.

As a process of intracellular degradation and recycling of its own components, abnormal regulation of autophagy has been strongly associated with the development of multiple cancer types, including triple-negative breast cancer. The amino acid sequences of KIF23 and PRC1 proteins were analyzed by bioinformatics method, their three-dimensional structures were predicted, and their interactions with polysaccharides were studied by molecular docking technology. The localization and expression patterns of KIF23 and PRC1 in cells were studied by cell biology techniques.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a highly prevalent and heterogeneous disease characterized by a combination of reproductive and endocrine abnormalities, often associated with metabolic and mental health disorders. The etiology and pathogenesis of PCOS remain unclear, but recent research has increasingly focused on the upstream mechanisms underlying its development. Among these, kisspeptin (KISS) signaling has emerged as a pivotal component in the regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, with significant roles in reproductive function, energy regulation, and metabolism.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors have demonstrated remarkable efficacy across various cancer types. However, immune-related adverse events (irAEs) pose a significant challenge in immunotherapy, particularly the associated pneumonia as the primary adverse reaction, which can lead to irreversible pulmonary fibrosis. Additionally, monotherapy with programmed death ligand (PD-L1) inhibitors has shown limited effectiveness.

Cancer treatment faces significant challenges including inadequate tumor specificity, drug resistance, and severe side effects, often resulting in unsatisfactory patient outcomes. Nanomedicines offer a transformative platform for tumor-targeted drug delivery and antitumor potency activation, providing an indispensable strategy for overcoming the severe damage to normal tissues caused by the inherent "always-on" cytotoxicity of conventional therapeutic agents. This review focuses on the emerging concept of "nanoparticle-enabled in situ drug potency activation", where inactive or minimally toxic agents are selectively activated within tumors to enhance the therapeutic efficacy and minimize the adverse effects.
