Rice tillering determines grain yield, yet the molecular regulatory network is still limited. In this study, we demonstrated that the transcription factor OsMADS60 promotes the expression of the auxin transporter OsPIN5b to affect auxin distribution and inhibit rice tillering and grain yield. Natural variation was observed in the promoter region of OsMADS60, with its expression level negatively correlated with tiller number and inducible by auxin.

However, existing matched single-cell multiomics clustering methods often neglect the full utilization of intercellular relationships and the interactions and synergy between features from different omics, leading to suboptimal clustering performance. In this paper, we propose a deep collaborative contrastive learning framework for matched single-cell multiomics data clustering, named scMDCL.

Graph neural networks (GNNs), as a rising star in machine learning, are widely used in relational data models and have achieved outstanding performance in graph tasks. GNN continuously takes inspiration from mature models in other domains such as computer vision and natural language processing to motivate the development of graph algorithms. However, due to the various data structures from different domains, the cross-domain migration of models has to go through a long period of disassembly and reconstruction, which may not yield the desired results.

The National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score at 24 h has been widely used; however, there is a paucity of data on using earlier NIHSS scores and their association with outcome. In this study, we aimed to investigate the usage of NIHSS at 1-h time window -ultra-early neurological improvement (UENI)- as a surrogate marker associated with the functional outcomes of AIS patients treated with EVT.

Expressions of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), estrogen receptor (ER), and progesterone receptor (PR) are critical to the development of therapeutic strategies for breast cancer. In this study, a deep learning model (CBAM ResNet-18) was developed to predict the expression of these three receptors on mammography without manual segmentation of masses.

However, due to the complexity of multiomics data, issues of feature redundancy and noise often do not receive sufficient attention when processing high-dimensional data. Moreover, simple concatenation strategies may overlook the correlations between different omics data, failing to effectively capture the unique information inherent in multiomics data.

However, the impact of tNGS and mNGS on antimicrobial stewardship in patients with LRTIs remains unclear.
Methods: Patients diagnosed with LRTIs who underwent tNGS or mNGS between June 2021 and January 2024 were included.
Background: The young onset Tracheal, Bronchus, and Lung Cancer (TBLC) exhibits distinct gene mutations and clinical characteristics. With worsening air pollution, the incidence of young onset TBLC is increasing, resulting in significant economic burdens. The specific epidemiology of the disease burden remains elusive.

Deferriamine (DFO) is an iron chelating agent that can induce angiogenesis, but its application is limited due to its short half-life. Increasing the load and slow release performance of desferriamine is beneficial to accelerate diabetic wound healing.

Understanding videos, especially aligning them with textual data, presents a significant challenge in computer vision. The advent of vision-language models (VLMs) like CLIP has sparked interest in leveraging their capabilities for enhanced video understanding, showing marked advancements in both performance and efficiency. However, current methods often neglect vital user-generated metadata such as video titles.

In previous studies, irreversible pore deformation, formation of charge-assisted hydrogen bonds or amide bonds were individually proposed to explain the desorption hysteresis of antibiotics on biochars, leading to a debate on hysteresis mechanism. In this study, desorption of sulfamethoxazole (SMX), ciprofloxacin (CFX) and tetracycline (TET) on a wood chip biochar produced at 700 °C (WBC700) and its oxidized product (O-WBC700) was investigated to explore the underlying hysteresis mechanism.

Superhydrophobic porous organic polymers are potential sorbents for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) pollution control by suppressing the competition of water molecules on their surfaces. However, the synthesis of superhydrophobic reagents usually requires large amounts of organic solvents and a long reaction time (≥ 24 h). Herein, a green mechanochemical method was developed to synthesize a superhydrophobic polymer (MSHMP-1) with the advantages of using a small amount of organic solvents (5 mL/g) and a short reaction time (2 h).

With the advancement of sequencing methodologies, the acquisition of vast amounts of multi-omics data presents a significant opportunity for comprehending the intricate biological mechanisms underlying diseases and achieving precise diagnosis and treatment for complex disorders. However, as diverse omics data are integrated, extracting sample-specific features within each omics modality and exploring potential correlations among different modalities while avoiding mutual interference becomes a critical challenge in multi-omics data integration research. In the context of this study, we proposed a framework that unites specificity-aware GATs and cross-modal attention to integrate different omics data (MOSGAT).
