Multidimensional Interactive Cascading Nanochips for Detection of Multiple Liver Diseases via Precise Metabolite Profiling.

It is challenging to detect and differentiate multiple diseases with high complexity/similarity from the same organ. Metabolic analysis based on nanomatrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (NMALDI-MS) is a promising platform for disease diagnosis, while the enhanced property of its core nanomatrix materials has plenty of room for improvement. Herein, a multidimensional interactive cascade nanochip composed of iron oxide nanoparticles (FeNPs)/MXene/gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), IMG, is reported for serum metabolic profiling to achieve high-throughput detection of multiple liver diseases.

MAGPIE: accurate pathogenic prediction for multiple variant types using machine learning approach.

Identifying pathogenic variants from the vast majority of nucleotide variation remains a challenge. We present a method named Multimodal Annotation Generated Pathogenic Impact Evaluator (MAGPIE) that predicts the pathogenicity of multi-type variants. MAGPIE uses the ClinVar dataset for training and demonstrates superior performance in both the independent test set and multiple orthogonal validation datasets, accurately predicting variant pathogenicity.

A novel electrospun nanofiber system with PEGylated paclitaxel nanocrystals enhancing the transmucus permeability and in situ retention for an efficient cervicovaginal cancer therapy.

Overcoming the vaginal barrier to achieve sufficient drug penetration and retention is a huge obstacle for drug delivery in chemotherapeutics for cervical cancer. In this study, we investigate the feasibility of a novel composite nanocrystal/nanofiber system for improving the transmucus penetration and, thus, enhancing retention and drug delivery to the lesion of a cervicovaginal tumor. Herein, paclitaxel (PTX) was sequentially formulated in the form of nanocrystals, coated with polydopamine (PDA), and modified with PEG.

Polyurethane Foam Skeleton-Based Phase Change Hydrogel for Efficient Battery Thermal Management with Favorable Antivibration Performance.

Efficient thermal management is critical to ensure the safe and reliable operation of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) as they are highly sensitive to temperature changes. Meanwhile, LIBs are exposed to various external forces during operation, such as vibration, shock, and oscillation, which may disrupt the physical and chemical processes inside the battery and lead to a decreased performance and shortened life. Here, we designed a phase change hydrogel (PCH) pad based on the polyurethane (PU) foam skeleton and demonstrated its effectiveness in efficient thermal management and improving antivibration performance.

Safety Helmet Detection Based on YOLOv5 Driven by Super-Resolution Reconstruction.

High-resolution image transmission is required in safety helmet detection problems in the construction industry, which makes it difficult for existing image detection methods to achieve high-speed detection. To overcome this problem, a novel super-resolution (SR) reconstruction module is designed to improve the resolution of images before the detection module. In the super-resolution reconstruction module, the multichannel attention mechanism module is used to improve the breadth of feature capture.

Finite-time and fixed-time stabilization of multiple memristive neural networks with nonlinear coupling.

This brief presents the finite-time stabilization and fixed-time stabilization of multiple memristor-based neural networks (MMNNs) with nonlinear coupling. Under the retarded memristive theory, the generalized Lyapunov functional method, extended Filippov-framework and Laplacian matrix theory, we can realize both the finite-time stabilization and fixed-time stabilization problem of MMNNs by designing novel state-feedback controller and the corresponding adaptive controller with regulate parameters. Moreover, we assess the bounds of settling time for the both two kinds of stabilization respectively, and we deeply analyze the influence of initial desiring values and the linear growth condition of the controller on the system.
