The defoliation quality of mugwort defoliation equipment is an important factor to measure the defoliation efficiency, and the tensile properties of mugwort petiole will have an impact on the defoliation quality, such as the crushing rate and the abscission rate. In order to reduce the crushing rate and improve the abscission rate during mechanical harvesting of mugwort leaves, the tensile properties of mugwort petiole need to be studied. The tensile properties of mugwort petiole are closely related to its macroscopic and microscopic physicochemical parameters.

In this study, two PBZ tissues and one tumor tissue sample are obtained from each patient via preoperative imaging. We assess the microenvironment and the characteristics of infiltrating immune/tumor cells using various techniques.

Methods: We performed a metabolome-wide Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis on 486 blood metabolites and acne using a genome-wide association dataset.
Hidradenocarcinoma (HAC) is a rare neoplasm that typically occurs in the head and neck region but seldom affects the chest wall. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry remain essential for diagnosing HAC, although their clinical utility in determining metastasis can be limited. Given the pathological rarity and histopathological heterogeneity of HAC, we report a case demonstrating the utility of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) combined with immunohistochemical examination for the accurate diagnosis and staging of HAC.

By establishing calibration curves for egg, oil, and steam flow rates, determining the key parameters of the equipment, and simulating the heat transfer process between steam and egg by Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), we created the device and verified its production performance. The results show that the capacity of this device can reach 104.
