Identifying cancerous samples or cells using transcriptomic data is critical for cancer related basic research, early diagnosis, and targeted therapy. However, the high transcriptional heterogeneity of cancers still hinders people from accurately recognizing cancerous transcriptome using bulk, single-cell, or spatial RNA-seq data. Here, we present a novel method named FWP (Feature Weight Pro) that helps measure cancerous transcriptome using transcriptomic data.

Most traditional treatments including surgical resection, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy would more or less cause serious side effects and drug resistance. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has huge potential in the treatment of TNBC for minimal invasiveness, low toxicity, less drug resistance and high spatiotemporal selectivity.

Powerful electrohydrodynamic (EHD) deposition techniques, which generate micro/nanostructures using high electrical forces, exhibit unique advantages in high printing resolution (<1 μm), tunable printing modes (electrospray for films, electrospinning for fibers and EHD jet printing for dots), and wide material applicability (viscosity 1-10 000 cps), making them attractive in the fabrication of high-density and high-tech optoelectronic devices. This review highlights recent advances related to EHD-deposited optoelectronics, ranging from solar cells, photodetectors, and light-emitting diodes, to transparent electrodes, with detailed descriptions of the EHD-based jetting mechanism, ink formulation requirements and corresponding jetting modes to obtain functional micro/nanostructures.

The pygmy mole cricket Xya riparia (Orthoptera: Tridactyloidea) is rarely studied or widely known. Some species of pygmy mole crickets, however, not only have a potential ecological value but are also important in the study of the evolution of the orthopteran genome and its phylogenetic relationships. The genome resources of pygmy crickets are limited and there are currently no publications referencing this species' genome.

This study was to investigate the clinical features of primary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) of the tonsil, and to explore possible ways to improve the prognosis and quality of life of the patients after treatment.
Methods: Clinical data of 89 naive patients with NHL of the tonsil, treated from May 1990 to Jan.
Background & Objectives: Stomach is the most common extranodal involvement site of lymphoma. Treatment patterns for primary gastric lymphoma (PGL) are controversial now. This study was to investigate clinical features, treatment patterns, and prognostic factors of patients with PGL.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical characteristics, reasonable mode of treatment and prognostic factors in patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL).
Methods: Twenty-eight patients with PCNSL treated from 1989 to 2002 were retrospectively reviewed. The clinical characteristics, results of treatment and prognostic factors were analyzed by SPSS10.
