We propose a linear imaging theory for differential phase contrast under the weak-phase-weak-amplitude object approximation. Contrast transfer functions are defined for thin and thick weak objects, and they successfully describe several imaging characteristics of differential phase contrast. We discuss the defocus dependence of the contrast for several examples: atomic resolution, a p-n junction, a heterointerface, and grain boundaries. Understanding the imaging characteristics helps in adjusting aberrations in DPC STEM.

Introduction: Deciphering the diverse molecular mechanisms in living Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients is a big challenge but is pivotal for disease prognosis and precision medicine development.
Methods: Utilizing an optimal transport approach, we conducted graph-based mapping of transcriptomic profiles to transfer AD subtype labels from ROSMAP monocyte samples to ADNI and ANMerge peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Subsequently, differential expression followed by comparative pathway and diffusion pseudotime analysis were applied to each cohort to infer the progression trajectories.
Imaging characteristics of hypervascular focal nodular hyperplasia-like lesions in patients with chronic alcoholic liver disease.

Background: Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH)-like lesions are hyperplastic formations in patients with micronodular cirrhosis and a history of alcohol abuse. Although pathologically similar to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) lesions, they are benign. As such, it is important to develop methods to distinguish between FNH-like lesions and HCC.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFTight sandstone gas reservoirs are characterized by high water saturation, significant seepage resistance, low single-well productivity, rapid decline, and low gas recovery. Enhancing the recovery rate of tight sandstone gas reservoirs is a complex engineering challenge that necessitates thorough, refined, and systematic research into its fundamental theories. This study employs a comprehensive approach integrating mercury injection, nuclear magnetic resonance, micro-model visualization, and simulation experiments of displacement and inter-layer seepage flow, alongside foundational seepage theories, to systematically explore the characteristics of tight sandstone gas reservoirs, seepage patterns, and methods for improving gas recovery.

Methods: The primary components of PTQF were characterized using UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS. The identified compounds subsequently employed network pharmacology to predict the signaling pathways associated with the inflammatory phase of POI.
Thermal Behavior of -Octanol and Related Ether Alcohols.

Institute of Physical Chemistry, Technical University Darmstadt, Peter-Grünberg-Straße 8, Darmstadt D-64287, Germany.
The thermal behavior of -octanol and related ether alcohols has been studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The melting point, heat of fusion, and isobaric heat capacities of -octanol obtained from the DSC measurements are in good agreement with literature values. The ether alcohols display kinetic barriers for forming a solid phase during cooldown.
