Genome-Wide Identification of the Lectin Receptor-like Kinase Gene Family in and Its Role in Salt Stress Tolerance.

Lectin receptor-like kinases (LecRLKs) are membrane-bound receptor genes found in many plant species. They are involved in perceiving stresses and responding to the environment. Oat (; 2 = 6 = 42) are an important food and forage crop with potential in drought, saline, or alkaline soils.

Safety of medicinal and edible herbs from fruit sources for human consumption: A systematic review.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Medicinal and edible herbs from fruit sources have been increasingly used in traditional Chinese medicine dietotherapy. There are no restrictions on who could consume the medicinal and edible fruits or on the dosage of consumption. However, their safety for human consumption has yet to be established.

Enhancing surgical outcomes: accurate identification and removal of prostate cancer with B7-H3-targeted NIR-II molecular imaging.

Purpose: One of the main reasons for prostate cancer (PCa) recurrence is the difficulty in identifying and removing cancerous lesions during surgery. Accurately localizing and excising cancerous tissue remains a significant challenge. The second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) fluorescence offers enhanced resolution, a high signal-to-noise ratio, and the potential for deeper tissue penetration.

Multi-Parameter Optimization of Rubidium Laser Optically Pumped Magnetometers with Geomagnetic Field Intensity.

Rubidium laser optically pumped magnetometers (OPMs) are widely used magnetic sensors based on the Zeeman effect, laser pumping, and magnetic resonance principles. They measure the magnetic field by measuring the magnetic resonance signal passing through a rubidium atomic gas cell. The quality of the magnetic resonance signal is a necessary condition for a magnetometer to achieve high sensitivity.

A radiomics nomogram model for predicting prognosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma after high-intensity focused ultrasound surgery.

Objective: To develop and validate a radiomics nomogram for predicting the survival of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) after receiving high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment.

Methods: A total of 52 patients with PDAC were enrolled. To select features, the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator algorithm were applied, and the radiomics score (Rad-Score) was obtained.

Exploring psychological resilience of entrepreneurial college students for post-pandemic pedagogy: The mediating role of self-efficacy.

The psychological impact of the COVID-19 epidemic on college students is an important topic. With the entry of the post-epidemic era, how universities can better improve students' psychological resilience in teaching is the research topic of this article. In the form of a questionnaire survey, some entrepreneurial college students investigated the loneliness and psychological resilience of college students after the outbreak of the epidemic and explored the role of self-efficacy in it.

Data leaking scandal, risks, and financial consumption behaviors in online tourism platforms: The role of trust on college students and teachers.

Given the importance of data safety for psychology, the present study investigated the influence of data leaking scandal on campus customers' financial consumption behaviors at intelligent tourism platforms in China, and explored the roles that individual characteristics play in this process by focusing on a set of participants from colleges. Data were collected through sending out an online questionnaire, where respondents were asked to finish a series of questions about their background information, their trust, future consuming intention, and defensive behaviors toward intelligent platforms. After they finished these questions, a short description about an online tourism platform leaking customers' personal information was presented to the respondents, following which they were asked to report about their future consuming intentions and defensive behaviors again.

Preoperative Evaluation of Gd-EOB-DTPA-Enhanced MRI Radiomics-Based Nomogram in Small Solitary Hepatocellular Carcinoma (≤3 cm) With Microvascular Invasion: A Two-Center Study.

Background: Preoperative evaluation of microvascular invasion (MVI) in small solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC; maximum lesion diameter ≤ 3 cm) is important for treatment decisions.

Purpose: To apply gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA)-enhanced MRI to develop and validate a nomogram for preoperative evaluation of MVI in small solitary HCC and to compare the effectiveness of radiomics evaluation models based on different volumes of interest (VOIs).

Study Type: Retrospective.

Characterization of phytoplankton community in a river ecosystem using pigment composition: a feasibility study.

CHEMTAX is a mathematical software for phytoplankton composition evaluation using pigment composition. Although this method has been previously applied in the ocean environment, we firstly utilized the combination of matrix factorization program CHEMTAX and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to characterize the phytoplankton community from a river system (western part of Weihe River Basin). The obtained results were compared with those from microscopic examination.
