Various types of non-uniform illumination can be used for resolution improvement in fluorescence microscopy. Here we study the differences between several types of incoherent illumination patterns, such as multi-spot, line and pseudo-random patterns. This requires an imaging setup and an image reconstruction algorithm that are flexible enough to incorporate any type of illumination pattern. We employ fluorescence microscope with structured illumination generated by a Digital Micro-mirror Device (DMD) and the pattern-illuminated Fourier Ptychography reconstruction algorithm (piFP) to this end. The piFP method is modified and improved by identifying the algorithm as steepest descent optimization of a least squares function. We find that illumination patterns with regular structure are superior to those with irregular structure in terms of resolution enhancement and noise level in the reconstructed images.

Gelatin, a natural and edible polymer, has attracted wide attention for use in food and edible packaging applications. However, its inadequate properties, especially poor flexibility, limit its broader utilization. Hybridizing different polymers is a promising strategy to achieve enhanced properties.

CesA proteins response to arsenic stress in rice involves structural and regulatory mechanisms, highlighting the role of BES1/BZR1 transcript levels under arsenate exposure and significant downregulation of BZR1 protein expression. Plants interact with several hazardous metalloids during their life cycle through root and soil connection. One such metalloid, is arsenic and its perilous impact on rice cultivation is a well-known threat.

The nocturnal behaviour and reproduction patterns of Sarcophagidae species during the scotophase are largely unexplored for species in the Neotropical region. The aim of this study was to assess the light regimes under which females of Peckia (Peckia) chrysostoma (Wiedemann, 1830) and Peckia (Sarcodexia) lambens (Wiedemann, 1830) would larviposit and understand how these variables influence intrauterine development in these flies. The experiments were conducted in an experimental room (lux = 100) in two independent experiments: I.

Photon-counting detector computed tomography (PCD-CT) offers energy-resolved CT data with enhanced resolution, reduced electronic noise, and improved tissue contrast. This study aimed to evaluate the visibility of intracranial perforating arteries on ultra-high-resolution (UHR) CT angiography (CTA) on PCD-CT. A retrospective analysis of intracranial UHR PCD-CTA was performed for 30 patients.

Background: There is evidence that the tendency to adopt a peculiar pattern of causal inference, known as attributional style, is likely related to specific patterns of psychopathology among youth.

Objective: This study aims to assess preliminary psychometric properties of the Italian Children's Attributional Style Questionnaire-Revised (CASQ-R) and to explore the presence of any subgroups of children and early adolescents from the general population who might exhibit internally homogeneous and externally heterogeneous attributional styles through latent class analysis, delving into the potential sociodemographic, namely age and gender, and clinical differences among the identified classes of attributional styles.

Method: A sample of 337 children (11.
