Neural underpinnings of a two-phase memory suppression process in the neural response to self-related and observed perspective views.

Individuals often actively suppress intrusive memories to alleviate the distress they cause and maintain mental well-being. However, those with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) often exhibit difficulties particularly in inhibiting or suppressing negative memories compared to individuals without PTSD. These memories can involve a physical threat either to the individual themselves or to others.

Similarities and differences of clinical manifestations and prognosis between eosinophilic gastroenteritis and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis complicating gastrointestinal involvement.

Objective: To investigate the similarities and differences of clinical manifestations and long-term prognosis between eosinophilic gastroenteritis (EGE) and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) complicating GI involvement (EGPA-GI).

Methods: Sixty-two EGE and 30 EGPA-GI patients were retrospectively enrolled in PUMCH from 2008 to 2023. Baseline clinical records were collected.

A hybrid critical channels and optimal feature subset selection framework for EEG fatigue recognition.

Fatigue driving is one of the potential factors threatening road safety, and monitoring drivers' mental state through electroencephalography (EEG) can effectively prevent such risks. In this paper, a new model, DE-GFRJMCMC, is proposed for selecting critical channels and optimal feature subsets from EEG data to improve the accuracy of fatigue driving recognition. The model is validated on the SEED-VIG dataset.

Plasma Human Cartilage Glycoprotein-39 and Cognitive Impairment After Acute Ischemic Stroke.

Background: Our study aimed at evaluating the association between plasma human cartilage glycoprotein-39 (YKL-40) and cognitive impairment at 3 months among patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Methods And Results: Plasma YKL-40 levels were measured in 604 participants from the China Antihypertensive Trial in Acute Ischemic Stroke. Cognitive impairment outcomes were assessed at 3 months poststroke using the Mini-Mental State Examination and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment.

Stereomicrostructure-regulated biodegradable adhesives.

Commercial adhesives are petroleum-based thermoset networks or nonbiodegradable thermoplastic hot melts, making them ideal targets for replacement by biodegradable alternatives. Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (P3HB) is a biorenewable and biodegradable alternative to conventional plastics, but microbial P3HB, which has a stereoperfect stereomicrostructure, exhibits no adhesion. In this study, by elucidating the fundamental relationship between chemocatalytically engineered P3HB stereomicrostructures and adhesion properties, we found that biodegradable syndio-rich P3HB exhibits high adhesion strength and outperforms common commercial adhesives, whereas syndiotactic, isotactic, or iso-rich P3HB shows no measurable adhesion.
