We present a new path protection algorithm, called resource sharing degree constraints (RSDCs), for survivable wavelength-divisionmultiplexing mesh networks. We define a parameter k to adjust the resource sharing degree (RSD). When we compute the reserved backup wavelengths, if the RSD is larger than the value of k, more wavelengths are assigned until the RSD is not greater than the value of k. With respect to previous work, RSDCs, adds a valuable elasticity in resource assignment and is able to determine the appropriate trade-offs between the resource utilization ratio and the protection ability.

Telomeres, which protect the chromosomal ends, are vital for cellular senescence and health. Telomere shortening, often due to stress, inflammation, and oxidative damage, is linked to age-related diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular issues, and neurodegeneration. Evidence suggests that meditation may affect telomere dynamics by reducing stress and inflammation and improving emotional regulation.

Temperature and nutrients are known as crucial drivers for the variations of bacterial community structure and functions in oceans and lakes. However, their significance and mechanisms in influencing the bacterial community structure and function in mountain stream remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the spatiotemporal patterns of the bacterial communities and the main environmental factors in the Taizicheng River, a high-latitude mountainous stream, to reveal the main driving factors for sedimental bacterial communities.

Background: Skin cancer prevention relies on effective sun safety practices. Previous studies have shown that LGBTQ+ individuals exhibit lower sunscreen use and higher tanning bed usage compared to their non-LGBTQ+ counterparts. This study is the first to assess skin cancer risk factors, sun-protective behaviors, and skin cancer concerns among LGBTQ+ individuals across Canada.
