Arthrofactin, a bioactive cyclic lipopeptide from Pseudomonas sp. MIS38, was reinvestigated for its structural and stereochemical features due to discrepancies between the genetics-based sequence prediction and the currently suggested structure. The structure of arthrofactin and its derivatives was reassigned on the basis of chiral HPLC analysis and extensive NMR and MS experiments. Furthermore, derivatives of arthrofactin were discovered.

Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between need-supportive coaching behavior, subjective task value, goal orientation, and engagement among Chinese high school football players and propose four research hypotheses better to understand the determinants and mechanisms of athlete engagement.
Methods: Participants were 385 Chinese high school football players (228 boys; 157 girls; Mage = 16.07 years; SD = 1.

Background: Bladder cancer (BCa) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide, and its prognostication and treatment remains challenging. The fast growth of various cancer cells requires reprogramming of its energy metabolism using aerobic glycolysis as a major energy source. However, the prognostic and therapeutic value of glycolysis-related genes in BCa remains to be determined.

Objective: To identify the disease-causing variant in a family with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC).
Methods: This study including a Han-Chinese pedigree recruited from the Third Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Changsha, Hunan, China was conducted between February, 2019 and January, 2023. Detailed clinical examinations were performed on the proband and other family members of a Han-Chinese family with TSC.

Objective: To design a deep learning-based model for early screening of diabetic retinopathy, predict the condition, and provide interpretable justifications.
Methods: The experiment's model structure is designed based on the Vision Transformer architecture which was initiated in March 2023 and the first version was produced in July 2023 at Affiliated Hospital of Hangzhou Normal University. We use the publicly available EyePACS dataset as input to train the model.

Magnetorheological (MR) fluid (MRF) dampers, serving as fail-safe semi-active devices, exhibit nonlinear hysteresis characteristics, emphasizing the necessity for accurate modeling to formulate effective control strategies in smart systems. This paper introduces a novel stop operator-based Prandtl-Ishlinskii (PI) model, featuring a reduced parameter set (seven), designed to estimate the nonlinear hysteresis properties of a large-scale bypass MRF damper with variable stiffness capabilities under varying applied current. With only seven parameters, the model realizes current, displacement, and rate dependencies.
