Background & Problems: Fetal heartbeat (FHB) monitoring is used to monitor the condition of a fetus in the uterus and estimate the expected time of delivery. It is crucial to accurately and comprehensively monitor fetal heart beats in high-risk pregnancies. However, invalid alarms frequently occur in clinical environments, easily promoting alarm fatigue among nurses and causing anxiety and distrust in the laboring women and their families.

Parallel transmission (pTx) is an important technique for reducing transmit field inhomogeneities at ultrahigh-field (UHF) MRI. pTx typically involves solving an optimization problem for radiofrequency pulse design, with hard constraints on specific-absorption rate (SAR) and/or power, which may be time-consuming. In this work, we propose a novel approach towards incorporating hard constraints to physics-driven neural networks.

Hibernation is a crucial aspect of the life history of freshwater turtles inhabiting temperate regions. Therefore, understanding their hibernation habitat selection is essential for the targeted conservation of turtle species and their habitats. The Chinese softshell turtle (), a medium-sized freshwater turtle, is widely distributed in China; however, populations are rapidly declining, and threatened by habitat destruction, overfishing, and water pollution.

Copper is used to treat algal blooms, macrophyte infestations and other environmental issues, but its rising ambient levels harm aquatic animals, especially their intestines. However, its impact on turtles' digestive health is not well understood, and the risks are unclear. This study investigates the effects of copper on the intestinal health of Chinese stripe-necked turtle, focusing on histomorphology, mucosal barrier function, gene expression, and gut microbiota.

The centrosome is the microtubule-organizing center and a crucial part of cell division. Centrosomal RNAs (cnRNAs) have been reported to enable precise spatiotemporal control of gene expression during cell division in many species. Whether and how cnRNAs exist in C.
