Article Synopsis
  • * Researchers developed a more effective prokaryotic expression system for screening cell death-inducing proteins (CDIPs) and identified two new proteins, BcRAE and BcFAT, during the process.
  • * These proteins showed high levels during infection and increased plant resistance against B. cinerea, suggesting they could be key targets for understanding how this fungus interacts with plants.

Background: Self-efficacy, one's ability to deal with pain, disability, and other symptoms through self-management techniques, positively affect the quality of life in patients with chronic diseases. Pregnancy-related back pain is a common musculoskeletal disorder pre- and postnatally. Hence, the study aimed to determine whether self-efficacy is associated with the development of back pain during pregnancy.

As a key technology for highly reliable communication in the fifth generation mobile communication for railway (5G-R) high-speed railway wireless communication system, once the handover fails, it will pose a serious risk to the safe operation of high-speed railway. As the speed of high-speed trains continues to increase, the handover will become more frequent, and how to improve the success rate of the handover is a key problem that needs to be solved. In this paper, we proposed an optimization algorithm based on the interval type 2 feature selection recurrent fuzzy neural network (T2RFS-FNN), which is a recurrent fuzzy neural network with interval type 2 feature selection, to address the problem of fixed hysteresis threshold and single consideration for the handover algorithm between the control plane and the user plane of the high-speed railway under 5G-R.

Electron spins in van der Waals materials are playing a crucial role in recent advances in condensed-matter physics and spintronics. However, nuclear spins in van der Waals materials remain an unexplored quantum resource. Here we report optical polarization and coherent control of nuclear spins in a van der Waals material at room temperature.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates genetic factors that influence the severity of COVID-19 in the Chinese population by comparing severe cases to milder ones.
  • Researchers conducted a genome-wide association study and identified two specific genetic loci on chromosomes 11q23.3 and 11q14.2 linked to COVID-19 severity.
  • Findings suggest potential genetic markers for understanding COVID-19's pathogenesis and could lead to improved clinical treatments for the disease.

Objective: To investigate the factors affecting the long-term survival of patients with carcinoma of esophagus and gastric cardia after curative resection.

Methods: The clinical data of 906 patients with carcinoma of esophagus and gastric cardia treated by radical resection in 1996 - 2004 were analyzed retrospectively. Twelve clinicopathological factors possibly influencing survival were encoded and assessed by Cox regression analysis.
