Background: Subthreshold depression (SD) affects a significant proportion of adolescent females, posing a risk of major depression in later life. This study examines the effects of open-skill exercise (OSE) and closed-skill exercise (CSE) on SD, executive function (EF), and emotional states in female adolescents.
Methods: A double-blind randomized controlled trial involved 95 female adolescents (mean age = 16.
Background: The treatment of depression with acupuncture has been documented. The mechanism behind acupuncture's curative and preventative effects is still unknown.
Methods: The current study examined the effects of acupuncture on depression-like behaviors in a rat model of chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS), while also exploring its potential mechanisms.
As the core of Internet of Things (IoT), embedded processors are being used more and more extensive. However, embedded processors face various hardware security issues such as hardware trojans (HT) and code tamper attacks. In this paper, a cycle-level recovery method for embedded processor against HT tamper is proposed, which builds two hardware-implementation units, a General-Purpose Register (GPRs) backup unit and a PC rollback unit.

However, the effects of physical exercise on non-cognitive abilities in adolescents remain inadequate. Objective: This study examined the effect of physical exercise on non-cognitive ability and further examined the differences in this effect in different groups.

A stable BSA blocking poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) microchannel was prepared based on in situ synthesized PDMS-gold nanoparticles composite films. The modified microchip could successfully suppress protein adsorption. The assembly was followed by contact angle, charge-coupled device (CCD) imaging, electroosmotic flow (EOF) measurements and electrophoretic separation methods.
