Occlusion facial expression recognition based on feature fusion residual attention network.

Recognizing occluded facial expressions in the wild poses a significant challenge. However, most previous approaches rely solely on either global or local feature-based methods, leading to the loss of relevant expression features. To address these issues, a feature fusion residual attention network (FFRA-Net) is proposed.

Identification of two rare variants in two Chinese families with familial focal epilepsy with variable foci 3: NGS analysis with literature review.

The GAP Activity Towards Rags 1 (GATOR1) complex, which includes DEPDC5, NPRL2, and NPRL3, plays a key role in epilepsy. It has been reported that focal epilepsy is associated with mutations in the gene in some cases. We report two rare mutations in the gene in two unrelated Chinese families with focal epilepsy in this study.

Oxygen vacancies on NbO enhanced the performance of HO electrosynthesis from O reduction.

A serial oxygen vacancy (O) on NbO is synthesised by H calcination, and H-300 exhibited high selectivity and activity for HO (93.4%, 562.5 mmol g).

The short-term safety and effectiveness of a new distal perforating stent graft in Type B aortic dissection: a retrospective study.

Background: Spinal artery ischemia (SCI) events can result from over coverage of the descending thoracic aorta with a coated stent during Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR). The aim of this study was to determine whether a new distal perforating stent could reduce the incidence of spinal cord ischemia while remodeling the true lumen.

Methods: TBAD patients treated with Talos stent in the vascular surgery Department of Yan 'an Hospital affiliated to Kunming Medical University between December 2017 and October 2019 were retrospectively analyzed to investigate the short-term safety and effectiveness of Talos stent.

The antagonistic MYB paralogs RH1 and RH2 govern anthocyanin leaf markings in Medicago truncatula.

Patterned leaf coloration in plants generates remarkable diversity in nature, but the underlying mechanisms remain largely unclear. Here, using Medicago truncatula leaf marking as a model, we show that the classic M. truncatula leaf anthocyanin spot trait depends on two R2R3 MYB paralogous regulators, RED HEART1 (RH1) and RH2.

Genome-wide identification and characterization of cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenase family genes in Medicago truncatula.

Cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenases (CKXs) play a key role in the irreversible degradation of phytohormone cytokinin that is necessary for various plant growth and development processes. However, thus far, detailed investigations of the CKX gene family in the model legume Medicago truncatula are limited. In this study, we identified 9 putative CKX homologues with conserved FAD- and cytokinin-binding domains in the M.

The MYB Activator WHITE PETAL1 Associates with MtTT8 and MtWD40-1 to Regulate Carotenoid-Derived Flower Pigmentation in .

Carotenoids are a group of natural tetraterpenoid pigments with indispensable roles in the plant life cycle and the human diet. Although the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway has been well characterized, the regulatory mechanisms that control carotenoid metabolism, especially in floral organs, remain poorly understood. In this study, we identified an anthocyanin-related R2R3-MYB protein, WHITE PETAL1 (WP1), that plays a critical role in regulating floral carotenoid pigmentation in Carotenoid analyses showed that the yellow petals of the wild-type contained high concentrations of carotenoids that largely consisted of esterified lutein and that disruption of function via insertion led to substantially reduced lutein accumulation.
