(CTV) is the most destructive viral pathogen of citrus. During the past century, CTV induced grave epidemics in citrus-growing areas worldwide that have resulted in a loss of more than 100 million trees. At present, the virus continues to threaten citrus production in many different countries. Research on CTV is accompanied by distinctive challenges stemming from the large size of its RNA genome, the narrow host range limited to slow-growing species and relatives, and the complexity of CTV populations. Despite these hurdles, remarkable progress has been made in understanding the CTV-host interactions and in converting the virus into a tool for crop protection and improvement. This review focuses on recent advances that have shed light on the mechanisms underlying CTV infection. Understanding these mechanisms is pivotal for the development of means to control CTV diseases and, ultimately, turn this virus into an ally.

Energy-Efficient Dynamic Enhanced Inter-Cell Interference Coordination Scheme Based on Deep Reinforcement Learning in H-CRAN.

Sensors (Basel)

December 2024

College of AI/SW Convergence, Kyungnam University, 7 Gyeongnamdaehak-ro, Masanhappo-gu, Changwon 51767, Republic of Korea.

The proliferation of 5G networks has revolutionized wireless communication by delivering enhanced speeds, ultra-low latency, and widespread connectivity. However, in heterogeneous cloud radio access networks (H-CRAN), efficiently managing inter-cell interference while ensuring energy conservation remains a critical challenge. This paper presents a novel energy-efficient, dynamic enhanced inter-cell interference coordination (eICIC) scheme based on deep reinforcement learning (DRL).

Exploration of an adaptive proton therapy strategy using CBCT with the concept of digital twins.

Phys Med Biol

January 2025

Department of Radiology Oncology, Emory University, Clifton Rd, Atlanta, Georgia, 30322-1007, UNITED STATES.

This study aims to develop a digital twin (DT) framework to achieve adaptive proton prostate stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) with fast treatment plan selection and patient-specific clinical target volume (CTV) setup uncertainty. Prostate SBRT has emerged as a leading option for external beam radiotherapy due to its effectiveness and reduced treatment duration. However, interfractional anatomy variations can impact treatment outcomes.

Objectives: To address controversies regarding target volume delineation for adjuvant intensity-modulated radiation therapy for oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma with pedicled flap reconstruction and elective nodal irradiation (ENI).

Materials And Methods: During target volume delineation, the primary tumor bed was the pre-surgical gross tumor volume with an additional isotropic margin of 5-10 mm. Additionally, the flap and body tissue junction were given a margin of 5-10 mm (if not already given).

Development and external validation of a multi-task feature fusion network for CTV segmentation in cervical cancer radiotherapy.

Radiother Oncol

December 2024

Department of Digital Medicine, School of Biomedical Engineering and Medical Imaging, Army Medical University, Chongqing 400038, China. Electronic address:

Background And Purpose: Accurate segmentation of the clinical target volume (CTV) is essential to deliver an effective radiation dose to tumor tissues in cervical cancer radiotherapy. Also, although automated CTV segmentation can reduce oncologists' workload, challenges persist due to the microscopic spread of tumor cells undetectable in CT imaging, low-intensity contrast between organs, and inter-observer variability. This study aims to develop and validate a multi-task feature fusion network (MTF-Net) that uses distance-based information to enhance CTV segmentation accuracy.

Application value of personalized 3D printing vaginal model for the Image-guided adaptive brachytherapy of cervical cancer.

J Gynecol Oncol

November 2024

The 3th Ward of Radiotherapy Department, Guangzhou Institute of Cancer Research, The Affiliated Cancer Hospital, Guangzhou Medical University, Guangzhou, China.

Objective: To explore the application value of using 3-dimensional (3D) printing (3DP) technology to create individualized vaginal molds for brachytherapy (BT) in high-dose-rate 3D cervical cancer through reverse engineering of needle placement.

Methods: Prospectively, 11 patients with cervical cancer were treated with 3DP-intracavitary/interstitial (IC/IS) BT using 3DP to create individualized vaginal molds. All patients were performed BT after completion of external beam radiotherapy (EBRT).
