Global, regional and national burden and trends of larynx cancer among adults aged 55 and older from 1990 to 2021: results from the global burden of disease study 2021.

Background: Laryngeal cancer (LC), as a common head and neck tumor, significantly impacts the quality of life. Utilizing data from the 2021 Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study, we sought to delve deeply into the global LC burden experienced by individuals aged 55 and older from 1990 to 2021 at the global, regional, and national levels. This research encompassed three key indicators: incidence rate, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs).

Dual-mode, regenerated DNA motor for simultaneous detection of viral gene fragments and diagnosis of infectious disease.

This study presents a dual-mode and regenerated DNA motor powered by exonuclease III (Exo III) for the simultaneous detection of viral gene fragments. The detection methodology is categorized into two distinct operational modes. The first mode emphasizes the simultaneous detection of two viral gene fragments from a specific virus.

W/WO/TiO Multilayer Film with Elevated Electrochromic and Capacitive Properties.

Electrochromic capacitors, which are capable of altering their appearances in line with their charged states, are drawing substantial attention from both academia and industry. Tungsten oxide is usually used as an electrochromic layer material for electrochromic devices, or as an active material for high-performance capacitor electrodes. Despite this, acceptable visual aesthetics in electrochromic capacitors have almost never been achieved using tungsten oxide, because, in its pure form, this compound only displays a onefold color modulation from transparent to blue.

Intranasal insulin for the treatment of olfactory dysfunction: a protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Introduction: Olfactory dysfunction (OD) is a prevalent nasal affliction that has detrimental effects on the patients' quality of life and safety. Conventional therapeutic strategies have various limitations such as high costs, prolonged treatment durations and adverse side effects. Intranasal insulin is a novel intervention for the management of OD.

Correlation among post-surgery recurrence of CRSwNP and TCM syndromes and tissue inflammatory cell infiltration type: a study protocol.

Background: Functional endoscopic sinus surgery is a principal option for treating chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) after medication failures. Unfortunately, some patients still have unsatisfactory postoperative recovery. The type of inflammatory cell infiltration in nasal polyp tissue has been reported available for recurrence prediction.

In Situ Observation of Cellular Structure Changes in and Chain Segregations of sp. PCC 7120 on TiO Films under a Photocatalytic Device.

Cyanobacteria outbreaks are serious water pollution events, causing water crises around the world. Photocatalytic disinfection, as an effective approach, has been widely used to inhibit blue algae growth. In this study, a tiny reaction room containing a TiO film was designed to fulfill in situ optical observation of the destruction process of a one-dimensional multicellular microorganism, sp.

Dynamical characterization and multiple unbinding paths of two PreQ ligands in one pocket.

Riboswitches naturally regulate gene expression in bacteria by binding to specific small molecules. Class 1 preQ riboswitch aptamer is an important model not only for RNA folding but also as a target for designing small molecule antibiotics due to its well-known minimal aptamer domain. Here, we ran a total of 62.

Overcoming Debye length limitations: Three-dimensional wrinkled graphene field-effect transistor for ultra-sensitive adenosine triphosphate detection.

Unlabelled: Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is closely related to the pathogenesis of certain diseases, so the detection of trace ATP is of great significance to disease diagnosis and drug development. Graphene field-effect transistors (GFETs) have been proven to be a promising platform for the rapid and accurate detection of small molecules, while the Debye shielding limits the sensitive detection in real samples. Here, a three-dimensional wrinkled graphene field-effect transistor (3D WG-FET) biosensor for ultra-sensitive detection of ATP is demonstrated.

Case report: Endoscopic frontal sinus opening surgery for noninflammatory frontal sinus headache: A short case series.

Objective: The objectives of this study were to analyze rhinogenic headache, i.e., noninflammatory frontal sinus headache, a headache caused by bony obstruction of the frontal sinus drainage channels that receives relatively insufficient attention clinically, and to propose endoscopic frontal sinus opening surgery as a treatment based on the etiology.

Mechanical stretching boosts expansion and regeneration of intestinal organoids through fueling stem cell self-renewal.

Intestinal organoids, derived from intestinal stem cell self-organization, recapitulate the tissue structures and behaviors of the intestinal epithelium, which hold great potential for the study of developmental biology, disease modeling, and regenerative medicine. The intestinal epithelium is exposed to dynamic mechanical forces which exert profound effects on gut development. However, the conventional intestinal organoid culture system neglects the key role of mechanical microenvironments but relies solely on biological factors.

A label-free fluorescent biosensor for amplified detection of T4 polynucleotide kinase activity based on rolling circle amplification and catalytic hairpin assembly.

T4 polynucleotide kinase (PNK) plays a key role in maintaining genome integrity and repairing DNA damage. In this paper, we proposed a label-free fluorescent biosensor for amplified detection of T4 PNK activity based on rolling circle amplification (RCA) and catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA). Firstly, we designed a padlock probe with a 5'-hydroxyl terminus for phosphorylation reaction, a complementary sequence of the primer for initiating RCA, and a complementary sequence of the trigger for triggering CHA.

Multiple sealed primers-mediated rolling circle amplification strategy for sensitive and specific detection of DNA methyltransferase activity.

DNA methyltransferase (MTase) aberrant expression has a close relationship to tumorigenesis. DNA MTase activity detection is of great importance to its biomedical research and theranostics study. Here, multiple sealed primers-mediated rolling circle amplification (RCA) strategy is developed for sensitively and specifically detecting DNA MTase activity.

A dual amplification fluorescent strategy for sensitive detection of DNA methyltransferase activity based on strand displacement amplification and DNAzyme amplification.

DNA methyltransferase (MTase) plays a critical role in many biological processes and has been regarded as a predictive cancer biomarker and a therapeutic target in cancer treatment. Sensitive detection of DNA MTase activity is essential for early cancer diagnosis and therapeutics. Here, we developed a dual amplification fluorescent strategy for sensitive detection of DNA MTase activity based on strand displacement amplification (SDA) and DNAzyme amplification.
