Sleeve lobectomy has solidified its position as a preferred alternative to pneumonectomy due to its significant advantage in preserving lung function, whereas right lower lobe sleeve lobectomy remains relatively uncommon because of the higher technical challenge. With the development of minimally invasive technology and experience acquired over the years, robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) has shown progress and distinct advantages compared to the traditional thoracotomy and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) approach. Owing to its 3D vision, bendable wrist joints, and tremor filtration capabilities, this surgical technique exhibits great advantages in complex thoracic operations demanding for reconstructive procedures compared to traditional thoracoscopic surgery.

Understanding these changes is crucial for uncovering the mechanisms behind genome evolution in domesticated mushrooms.
Objectives: This study aims to investigate the population structure, genetic diversity, and domestication-related genomic changes in F.
The composition of T cell subsets and tumor-specific T cell interactions within the tumor microenvironment (TME) contribute to the heterogeneity observed in breast cancer. Moreover, aberrant tumor metabolism is often intimately linked to dysregulated anti-tumor immune function of T cells. Identifying key metabolic genes that affect immune cell interactions thus holds promise for uncovering potential therapeutic targets in the treatment of breast cancer.

Here, we evaluated the clinical value of metagenomic next generation sequencing (mNGS) in the diagnosis of central nervous system infections and explored the factors affecting the results of mNGS. We conducted a retrospective study to compare mNGS with conventional methods including culture, smear and etc.

Although GaN is a promising candidate for semiconductor devices, degradation of GaN-based device performance may occur when the device is bombarded by high-energy charged particles during its application in aerospace, astronomy, and nuclear-related areas. It is thus of great significance to explore the influence of irradiation on the microstructure and electronic properties of GaN and to reveal the internal relationship between the damage mechanisms and physical characteristics. Using a combined density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (AIMD) study, we explored the low-energy recoil events in GaN and the effects of point defects on GaN.

Almost all species are known to be ectomycorrhizal with high ecological and edible values, and some are lethal poisonous. In this study, four new species belonging to the subgenus crown clade are identified based on morphological and phylogenetic evidence from the Xizang Autonomous Region and other provinces of China.

Whipple's disease is a chronic systemic infectious disease that mainly affects the gastrointestinal tract. In some cases, Tropheryma whipplei can cause infection at the implant site or even throughout the body. In this study, we collected alveolar lavage fluid samples from patients with Tropheryma whipplei from 2020 to 2022, and retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of Tropheryma whipplei positive patients.

Addressing this issue, there has been a notable breakthrough in the prevention and mitigation of NCDs through the use of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents. In this study, we aim to explore the effectiveness of Eupatorium adenophora Spreng leaves (EASL) as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, and its potential applications.

In order to further clarify the effects of different land use patterns (farmland, grassland, and forest) on the molecular composition of SOM, the changes in molecular composition of organic matter (free lipids, cutin, suberin, and lignin) on a global scale were studied using a meta-analysis method. The results showed that there were significant differences in the molecular composition of organic matter under different land use patterns.

This study aimed to evaluate the clinical characteristics of Chlamydia psittaci infection diagnosed based on metagenomic next-generation sequencing(mNGS), as well as the risk factors affecting the progress of Chlamydia psittaci infection, in order to improve the effect of therapeutics.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of patients infected with chlamydia psittaci in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from January 2021 to December 2021.
The performance of multipath transmission control protocol (MPTCP) subflow through the enhancement mechanism of the MPTCP communication is improved. When dealing with multiple MPTCP subflows occupying the same transmission path, critical issues such as selection and optimization of multipath, and efficient scheduling of available multiple tracks are effectively addressed by incorporating the technology called software defined network (SDN) that is constructed based on four key parameters, namely, network transmission bandwidth, transmission paths, path capacity, and network latency. Besides, critical equipment such as the network physical device layer and SDN controller are integrated with the four parameters.

Background: There is consensus that postoperative adjuvant therapy is not recommended in patients with stage 1a non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Meanwhile, it is still controversial whether postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy is recommended for NSCLC patients with T2aN0M0 (stage 1b). In some patients with stage 1b NSCLC without pleural invasion, tumor diameter was measured between 3 and 4 cm by preoperative imaging and less than 3 cm by postoperative pathology specimens.

In this concept, we systematically summarizes the synthesis of C-aryl glycosides with diverse regioselectivity and diastereoselectivity from the perspective of C-H arylation of glycosides and C-H glycosylation of arenes. It can be found that a series of recently developed C-H glycosylation reactions have higher site-selectivity and diastereomeric selectivity than Friedel-Crafts glycosylation reaction.

It is debatable that how much pulmonary function will be lost after different sublobar resection in the treatment of early-staged deep-located peripheral NSCLC (non-small cell lung cancer). The purpose of this study was to explore postoperative pulmonary function changes of sublobar resection in enrolled patients with non-subpleural peripheral nodules.
