Carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs) are widely used in fields such as aviation and aerospace. However, subtle defects can significantly impact the material's service life, making defect detection a critical priority. In this paper, delamination defects in CFRP are detected using line laser infrared thermography, and a defect characterization algorithm that combines differential thermography with a frequency-domain filter is proposed.

The progression of hepatoma is heavily influenced by the microenvironment. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are considered to play a critical role in the tumor microenvironment (TME) and increase the aggressiveness of hepatoma. The activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) is involved in hepatoma progression, and accumulating evidence demonstrates a change in microRNA (miRNA) expression during HSC activation.

Background/aim: Solute carrier (SLC) family 15 member 2 (SLC15A2) is an integral member of the SLC family that plays a pivotal role in numerous biological processes, including the regulation of cellular signaling pathways. However, its role in prostate cancer (PCa) remains inadequately elucidated. This study aims to investigate the prognostic significance of SLC15A2 in PCa.
