BCR::ABL1-negative myelo-proliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are characterized by mutations in JAK2, CALR, or MPL. Usually these mutations are co-exclusive of each other and of BCR::ABL1. We reviewed clonal interactions in 177 subjects with mutations in JAK2, CALR, or MPL and BCR::ABL1 including JAK2/BCR::ABL1 (N = 142), CALR/BCR::ABL1 (N = 31), MPL/BCR::ABL1 (N = 3).

Methods: We enrolled 100 patients with acute isolated unilateral orbital floor fractures from May 2017 to January 2021. Based on the CT scan findings, we measured the FA, HV, OVR, and fracture site.
Semimetal electrodes for 2D semiconductors have been extensively studied; however, research on p-type semimetals has been limited due to the scarcity of materials that satisfy both high work functions and low resistances. In response, we investigated the behavior of NiSe as an electrode. Utilizing a novel co-evaporation method that suppresses oxidation and contamination, we synthesized NiSe demonstrating a high work function of 5.

These challenges, predominantly stemming from metal-induced gap states (MIGS) and Schottky barrier heights (SBHs), critically impede device performance. This work introduces an innovative implementation of damage-free SbTe topological van der Waals (T-vdW) contacts, representing an ultimate contact electrode for 2D materials.

Previous research has identified variations in LPS profile as a major virulence factor, yet the underlying mechanism of its modulation has remained elusive.
Methods: We employed a comprehensive methodological approach, combining two mutants exhibiting varying levels of c-di-AMP compared to the wild type, alongside an optimized analytical methodology that combines conventional mass spectrometry techniques with a novel approach known as FLAT.
