All previously published algorithms for the interpretation of frequency doubling perimetry test results were compared in full-threshold mode in a large group of glaucoma patients (n = 452) and normal subjects (n = 237). Areas under the receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve ranged from 0.86 to 0.92. None of the algorithms performed substantially better than simply counting the number of defects p < 1% in the total deviation plot. For this algorithm, we found a sensitivity of 0.90 and a specificity of 0.81 at a cut-off point of >1 defect, and an area under the ROC curve of 0.92.

Background: The aging population presents a significant public health challenge, particularly concerning mental health and injury prevention. Anxiety and depression are common among the older adult, affecting their quality of life and increasing the risk of unintentional injuries (UI). This study aims to explore the association between anxiety and depression and UI risk among the older adult in Guangxi, China, using data from the 2023 National Health Service Survey.

In this work, what we believe to be a novel electrostatic 2-DOF micromirror structure with double-biased torsional axes is proposed. By introducing internal resonance, synchronous motions of the two axes with a locked frequency ratio under a single driving force were achieved within a wide frequency range.

However, current reports on these filters are predominantly concentrated within the frequency range of a few GHz. As communication frequencies continue to escalate, there is a pressing need for filters that can operate at higher frequencies.

Background: The high-frequency induction rate of haploid is crucial for double haploid (DH) breeding. The combination of multiple haploid-induced genes, such as ZmPLA1/MATL/NLD and ZmDMP, can synergistically enhance the haploid induction rate (HIR) in maize. However, the potential synergistic effects between OsMATL and OsDMP genes in rice remain unclear.

Introduction: Extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) plays significant roles in cancer progression and prognosis. However, it remains unclear whether cell-free eccDNA, considered more stable than linear DNA, possesses cancer-specific genomic features. Furthermore, the biogenesis and function of eccDNAs are not yet fully understood.
