Background: Litchi downy blight, caused by Phytophthora litchii, is one of the most important diseases of litchi. Ametoctradin, as the only QioI (quinone inside and outside inhibitor) fungicide, has been registered in China in 2019. However, the ametoctradin-resistance risk and molecular basis in Phytophthora litchii have not been reported.

Photocontrolled therapeutic release holds great promise due to its versatile manipulability, superb spatiotemporal precision and minimal tissue invasiveness in biomedical purposes. However, most of light-responsive platforms thus far have relied on UV or visible light which substantially limit the potential applicability in living animals. In recent decades, near-infrared (NIR) light-mediated theranostic upconversion nanocomposites (UCNCs) that integrate conventional UV/Vis-sensitive materials and classic lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) have significantly promoted the development of deep-tissue photoreleasable therapeutics in vivo.

Continuous recordings of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and ABP signals were obtained from simultaneous measurements in 16 healthy elderly subjects (age: 68.9±7.

Methods: Continuous recordings of near-infrared spectroscopy signals were obtained from the left and right prefrontal lobes in 21 subjects with CI (Group CI, age: 76.6 ± 8.
This study aims to assess the prefrontal functional connectivity using wavelet coherence analysis of cerebral tissue oxyhaemoglobin concentration (Delta [HbO2]) signals in elderly subjects with cerebral infarction (CI) during the resting state. Continuous recordings of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) signals were obtained from the left and right prefrontal lobes in 10 subjects with CI (age: 74.4±9.
