We propose and experimentally demonstrate a simple and flexible photonic approach to implementing single sideband (SSB) modulation based on optical spectral filtering. The high-order birefringent filter is realized through the cascaded Solc-Sagnac and Lyot-Sagnac loops. By adjusting the rotation angle of the polarization controller (PC), the notch position to remove undesired sidebands changes. The frequency for SSB modulation varies accordingly. The periodical response of the filter spectrum allows both the carrier wavelength and the optical carrier to sideband ratio (OCSR) to be tunable. SSB modulation over a frequency range from 5 to 40 GHz and tunable OCSR ranging from -9.174 to 34.408 dB are obtained. The significant merits of the proposed approach are the simple structure, easy operation, large frequency range, tunable OCSR, and wavelength independence. The approach has potential applications in optimizing the transmission performance of photonic microwave signal processing systems.

Salivary gland diseases encompass a broad range of conditions, including autoimmune, inflammatory, obstructive, and neoplastic disorders, significantly impacting oral health and overall well-being. Recent research has highlighted the crucial role of exosomes, small extracellular vesicles, in these diseases. Exosomes mediate intercellular communication by transferring bioactive molecules such as proteins, microRNAs, and lipids, positioning them as potential diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic agents.

Purpose: To determine the dosimetric effects of set-up errors on boost coverage, and compares skin toxicity of sequential and simultaneous boost techniques for left-sided breast cancer.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study included 23 early-stage breast cancer cases. Single isocenter HFWBI-SIB(s-SIB), single isocenter HFWBI-SB(s-SB) and dual isocenter HFWBI-SB(d-SB) were planing.
The SNF2 family chromatin remodeler HELLS has emerged as an important regulator of cell proliferation, genome stability, and several cancer pathways. Significant upregulation of HELLS has been reported in 33 human cancer types. While HELLS has been implicated in DNA damage response, its function in DNA repair is poorly understood.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease with complex clinical manifestations and no current cure. Alternative splicing (AS) plays a key role in SLE by regulating immune-related genes, but its genome-wide regulatory mechanisms remain unclear. To investigate the involvement of abnormal splicing regulators and AS events in the immune regulation of SLE.

Unlike the conventional real-valued double-sideband (DSB) quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) of relatively lower spectral efficiency (SE) and single-sideband (SSB) QAM relying on sharp-edged optical filtering, the CV-DSB-16QAM signal is generated by combining two independent sideband modulated QPSK signals using a single intensity modulator with an optical filtering-free profile, which also saves one photodiode and one analog-to-digital-converter compared with the twin-SSB scheme. Compared to typical pulse amplitude modulation or SSB schemes, the proposed approach offers a compelling alternative for complex-valued DD systems' evolution, particularly in scenarios with high SE demands and controllable chromatic dispersion.
