Choroidal thickness and choriocapillaris vascular density in myopic anisometropia.

Background: This study aims to examine interocular differences in the choroidal thickness and vascular density of the choriocapillaris in anisometropic myopes and to further explore the relationship between choroidal blood flow and myopia.

Methods: The sample comprised 44 participants with anisometropic myopia, aged 9 to 18 years, with normal best-corrected visual acuity. All participants underwent a series of examinations, including spherical equivalent refraction (SER) and axial length (AL), measured by a Lenstar optical biometer and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) scanner.

Reducing Kapitza resistance between graphene/water interface via interfacial superlattice structure.

The control of thermal transport across solid/liquid interface has attracted great interests for efficient thermal management in the integrated devices. Based on molecular dynamics simulations, we study the effect of interfacial superlattice structure on the Kapitza resistance between graphene/water interface. Compared to the original interface, introducing interfacial superlattice structure can result in an obvious reduction of Kapitza resistance by as large as 40%, exhibiting a decreasing trend of Kapitza resistance with the decrease of superlattice period.

Reciprocal characterization from multivariate time series to multilayer complex networks.

Various transformations from time series to complex networks have recently gained significant attention. These transformations provide an alternative perspective to better investigate complex systems. We present a transformation from multivariate time series to multilayer networks for their reciprocal characterization.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the Sara Longwing Heliconius sara (Insecta: Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae).

The complete mitochondrial genome of the Sara Longwing Heliconius sara has been reconstructed from the whole-genome Illumina sequencing data. The mitochondrial genome is 15,372 bp in size with the highly asymmetric overall A + T content of 80.6%.

Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of Bombyx huttoni (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae).

The complete mitochondrial genome of the wild silk moth Bombyx huttoni has been reconstructed from the whole-genome Illumina sequencing data. The circular genome was determined to be 15,638 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNAs (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), and one A+T-rich D-loop or control region. Twelve PCGs (COX2, COX3, CYTB, ND1, ND2, ND3, ND4, ND4L, ND5, ND6, ATP6, and ATP) are initiated with the typical ATN codons, whereas COX1 was tentatively determined to use the unusual CGA as its start codon.
