Purpose: The difference in prognosis between invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) and invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) is still controversial in the academic community. Resolving this controversy can help to more accurately determine patients' prognosis, provide further personalized treatment, alleviate unnecessary psychological burden for some patients, and provide direction for further fundamental research.

Patients And Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted using the SEER Research Plus Data 8 Registries, Nov 2021 sub (1978-2019), including female breast cancer patients diagnosed with ILC or IDC between 2010 and 2015.

Article Synopsis
  • Few studies have looked at how combinations of nutrients affect Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) rather than focusing on individual nutrients.
  • Three statistical models (GLM, WQS, and BKMR) found that vitamin E and vitamin B6 are key nutrients linked to MCI risk.
  • Researchers suggest shifting towards studying multiple nutrients together to better understand their combined effects on health, rather than evaluating them one at a time.

Background: Abnormalities in mitochondrial structure or function are closely related to the development of malignant tumors. Mitochondrial metabolic reprogramming provides precursor substances and energy for the vital activities of tumor cells, so that cancer cells can rapidly adapt to the unfavorable environment of hypoxia and nutrient deficiency. Mitochondria can enable tumor cells to gain the ability to proliferate, escape immune responses, and develop drug resistance by altering constitutive junctions, oxidative phosphorylation, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial subcellular relocalization.

A precise quantification of energy gap for a molecular semiconductor is crucial. However, there has always been a lack of a suitable method which results in an inaccurate measurement. In this research, a three-terminal vertical structure (Al/AlO/Au/ molecular semiconductor/Al), named hot electron transistor has been designed to be the most powerful method for energy gap determination.

Aims: is one of the major anaerobic pathogen causing food poisoning and animal enteritis. With the rise of antibiotic resistance and the restrictions of the use of antibiotic growth promoting agents (AGPs) in farming, enteritis and food contamination have become more common. It is time-consuming and labor-intensive to confirm the detection by standard culture methods, and it is necessary to develop on-site rapid detection tools.

  • The study aimed to compare the effects of high vs low concentrations of hyaluronic acid eye drops on dry eye syndromes (DES) through randomized controlled trials (RCTs).
  • A total of 10 RCTs with 1,796 participants were analyzed, revealing that high-concentration hyaluronic acid significantly improved corneal fluorescein staining scores, but other metrics like Schirmer's test and tear breakup time showed no significant differences.
  • The conclusion suggests that while high-concentration hyaluronic acid is beneficial for dry eyes with corneal staining, it doesn't provide substantial benefits in other dry eye conditions compared to lower concentrations.

Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks-8 (ZIF-8) is commonly used as an ideal precursor for non-noble metal catalysts because of its high specific surface area, ultra-high porosity, and N-rich content. Upon pyrolyzing ZIF-8 at 900 °C in Ar, the resulting material, referred to as Z8, displayed good activity toward the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Then the ZIF-8 was mixed with various conductive carbon materials, such as multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), Acetylene black (ACET), Vulcan XC-72R (XC-72R), and Ketjenblack EC-600JD (EC-600JD), to form Z8 composites.

The rapid development of mobile communication devices has brought challenges to wireless networks, where data packets are able to organize and maintain local area networks more freely without the constraints of wired devices. Scholars have developed diverse network protocols on how to ensure data transmission while maintaining its self-organizational nature. However, it is difficult for traditional network protocols to meet the needs of increasingly complex networks.

Deoiling of food waste (FW) after hydrothermal pretreatment occurs at high temperatures, and more energy is required for substrate cooling before the anaerobic digestion (AD) process. AD at the transition temperature (for example 45 °C) is good for energy saving and carbon emission reducing when treating deoiling FW. However, the metabolic activity of methanogens must increase at the transition temperatures.

Dosing zero valent iron (ZVI) or sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is the common method of addressing acidification in anaerobic digestion (AD) systems; however, few studies have discussed and compared their effects on microbial metabolism. In the present study, microbial syntrophy and metabolic pathways under ZVI and NaOH regulation are comparatively analyzed through microbial network analysis and metagenomic/metaproteomic analyses. CH yield in the ZVI reactor was 414 mL/gVS, an increase of 23% when compared with that in the reactor with NaOH dosing (336 mL/gVS).
