Many Transformer-based pre-trained models for code have been developed and applied to code-related tasks. In this paper, we analyze 519 papers published on this topic during 2017-2023, examine the suitability of model architectures for different tasks, summarize their resource consumption, and look at the generalization ability of models on different datasets. We examine three representative pre-trained models for code: CodeBERT, CodeGPT, and CodeT5, and conduct experiments on the four topmost targeted software engineering tasks from the literature: Bug Fixing, Bug Detection, Code Summarization, and Code Search.

This study aimed to develop and validate a community-based ostomy care training program for nursing staff, with the goal of enhancing their ostomy nursing competencies and improving patient satisfaction. Between March 2021 and October 2021, 20 registered nurses and 50 patients with enterostomy surgery who took part in the promotion of a new nursing technique in five community health service centers in the Wuxing District, Huzhou City, were enrolled in this study (forming the intervention group). In addition, 15 registered nurses and 40 patients with enterostomy surgery from four community health service centers with similar economic and health conditions in the same area were randomly selected as the control group.

However, it remains unclear whether this assembly is pathogen-specific and how regulatory pathways are coordinated in multi-pathogens. In order to investigate the effects of infection with (Cg treatment) and (Fp treatment) on walnut leaf endophytic microbiome in their assembly, co-occurrence pattern, and on comprehensive chemical function of the internal environment of leaf, an interaction system of the walnut-pathogenic fungi was constructed using seed embryo tissue culture technology.

Regulatory networks centered on AtWRKY53 are crucial for orchestrating and integrating various senescence-related signals. Notably, AtWRKY53 binds to its own promoter and represses transcription of AtWRKY53, but the biological significance and mechanism underlying this self-repression remain unclear.

This tumor has a low incidence and is associated with an excellent prognosis following surgical resection. Typical SPNs primarily affect the pancreas and tend to have moderate or asymptomatic manifestations.

However, their practical application is hampered by stability issues under a large current or temperature gradient. It has been reported that introduction of copper vacancies can enhance the chemical stability, whereas the micromechanism behind this macroscopic improvement still remains unknown.

NAM/ATAF1/CUC (NAC) transcription factors orchestrate various senescence-related signals and mediate the fine-tuning underlying plant senescence. Previous data revealed that knockout of either NtNAC028 or NtNAC080 leads to delayed leaf senescence in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), which implies that NtNAC028 and NtNAC080 play respective roles in the regulation of leaf senescence, although they share 91.

The early occurrence of metastasis and local recurrence subsequent to surgery contribute to the poor survival rates of PDAC patients, thereby limiting the effectiveness of surgical intervention. Additionally, the desmoplastic and immune-suppressive tumor microenvironment of PDAC diminishes its responsiveness to conventional treatment modalities such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy.

Methods: A cellular hierarchy framework based on metabolic properties discrepancy, METArisk, was introduced to re-analyze the cellular composition from bulk transcriptomes of 486 patients through deconvolution utilizing single-cell reference profiles from 25 primary and 8 metastatic HNSCC sample integration of previous studies. Machine learning methods were used to identify the correlations between metabolism-related biomarkers and prognosis.
Background: Multiple muscles contribute to the formation of dorsal nasal lines (DNLs) and affect nasal aesthetics. Few attempts have been made to explore the range of distribution of DNLs in relation to injection planning.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to classify the distribution types of DNLs and propose a refined injection technique validated by clinical study and cadaver dissection.

Chemical contaminants in food generally include natural toxins (mycotoxins, animal toxins, and phytotoxins), pesticides, veterinary drugs, environmental pollutants, heavy metals, and illegal additives. Developing a low-cost, simple, and rapid detection technology for harmful substances in food is urgently needed. Analytical methods based on different advanced materials have been developed into rapid detection methods for food samples.

Sulfonation via sulfotransferases (SULTs) is an important metabolic pathway for such compounds. The objective of this study is to determine the SULT-isoform-specific metabolic fingerprint, tissue-specific rate, and reaction kinetic profiles to describe the characterization and contribution of curcuminoids sulfonation.
