Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is characterized by poor responsiveness to immune evasion and immunotherapy. RNA 7-methylguanine (m7G) modification plays a key role in tumorigenesis. However, the mechanisms by which m7G-modified RNA metabolism affects tumor progression are not fully understood, nor is the contribution of m7G-modified RNA to the CRC immune microenvironment.

This study uses provincial panel data of China during 2000-2017 to analyze the reduction in the proportion of enterprise contributions to pension insurance in Zhejiang and Shandong provinces as a quasi-natural experiment. Specifically, it uses the synthetic control method to construct a counterfactual state of the treatment group, and analyzes the effect of fee reduction policy on enterprise innovation input.

Specifically, we note that the authors failed to evaluate diaphragm mobility, which is essential for a comprehensive assessment of respiratory function, as well as diaphragm thickness. Assessing diaphragm mobility could enrich our understanding of the impact of surgical approaches on respiratory mechanics and postoperative pulmonary complications.

However, achieving ferromagnetic order at room temperature, along with strong perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, remains a significant challenge. In this work, we report wafer-scale growth of vdW ferromagnet FeGaTe using molecular beam epitaxy.
