An ultrafast microwave ranging method based on optically generated frequency-modulated microwave pulses is proposed in this study. The theoretical analysis demonstrated that nanosecond-scale linear frequency modulation microwave pulse can be obtained by femtosecond laser interference under the condition of unbalanced dispersion, which can be used to achieve a high temporal resolution of the displacement change in the measurement by the principle of frequency modulation continuous wave (FMCW) radar. The proof-of-principle experiment successfully measured the displacement change with an error of 2.

- The study investigates adrenomedullin's (ADM) role in protecting estrogen production in Leydig cells by targeting the TGF-β1/Smads signaling pathway.
- Treatment with ADM via recombinant adenovirus (Ad-ADM) in Leydig cells improved cell viability and hormone production in the presence of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a compound that can induce cellular stress.
- Results indicated that Ad-ADM not only maintained testosterone production and aromatase activity but also reduced the harmful effects of TGF-β1 and Smads, suggesting that ADM supports the overall hormone balance in Leydig cells.
Excellent Energy Storage and Charge-Discharge Performance in (PbCa)(ZrSn)O Antiferroelectric Ceramics.
ACS Appl Mater Interfaces
January 2025
Lead-based antiferroelectric (AFE) ceramics have the advantages of high power density, fast charge and discharge speed, and the electric-field-induced AFE-FE phase transition, making them one of the potential dielectric energy storage materials. However, the energy storage density still needs to be improved. In this work, (PbCa) (ZrSn)O (PCZS, = 0.

While behavioral evidence on RR binding has been extensively examined, corresponding electrophysiological evidence remains scarce. This study aims to contribute novel insights into RR binding by event-related potentials (ERP) techniques to provide new evidence for RR binding.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 48 children with VUR who underwent unilateral or bilateral RALUR-EV between June 2018 and December 2022. Patients were divided into two groups: Group A (25 infants under one year) and Group B (23 children over one year).
