Clinical decision-making is driven by multimodal data, including clinical notes and pathological characteristics. Artificial intelligence approaches that can effectively integrate multimodal data hold significant promise in advancing clinical care. However, the scarcity of well-annotated multimodal datasets in clinical settings has hindered the development of useful models.

Drug development for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) has historically lagged behind that of other malignancies. No treatment has demonstrated the ability to overcome drug resistance that ultimately leads to recurrence and progression.

The present study focuses on the fabrication of a highly robust cellulose nanofibril (CNF) based aerogel with an ordered structure, serving as a three-dimensional (3D) scaffold for PEG to effectively prevent any potential leakage. Additionally, hydroxyl and amino functional groups are introduced to functionalize boron nitride nanosheets (BNNS-g), which are incorporated into the aerogel to enhance its thermal conductivity.

However, to our knowledge, no studies have explored the application of LcWGS in sheep. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of implementing LcWGS and genotype imputation and assess their applicability in genomic studies of body weight and milk yield in sheep.

Dimefluthrin (DIM) is one of the most widely used hygienic insecticides globally. However, with increasing mosquito resistance, both the concentration and duration of DIM usage have risen, prompting public concerns regarding its neurotoxic risks, especially for immunocompromised children.
