Rationale And Objectives: Training Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) requires large datasets with labeled data, which can be very labor-intensive to prepare. Radiology reports contain a lot of potentially useful information for such tasks. However, they are often unstructured and cannot be directly used for training.

This study retrospectively analyzed data on 58 patients with hematological diseases who underwent secondary allo-HSCT at the Peking University People's Hospital from January 2018 to December 2023. The control group included 116 randomized patients after primary allo-HSCT during this period (1:2 ratio) with matched gender, age, and diagnosis.

This study aims to confirm the role and related mechanisms of SIRT6 in vancomycin-induced renal injury. To develop a kidney damage model, mice were given vancomycin injections for seven days.

In the present study, a modularized cascade composed of Modules 1 and 2 was designed and implemented to convert l-tyrosine to hydroxytyrosol. Module 1 was a four-enzymatic cascade for converting l-tyrosine to tyrosol.

However, research and application of the autotrophic NH-N removal process mediated by manganese oxides (MnOx) in wastewater treatment are currently limited. This study established autotrophic NH-N removal sludge reactors mediated by various MnOx types, including δ-MnO (δ-MSR), β-MnO (β-MSR), α-MnO (α-MSR), and natural Mn ore (MOSR), investigating their NH-N removal performances and mechanisms under different initial N loading and pH conditions.
