The generalization of deep learning (DL) models is critical for accurate lesion segmentation in breast ultrasound (BUS) images. Traditional DL models often struggle to generalize well due to the high frequency and scale variations inherent in BUS images. Moreover, conventional loss functions used in these models frequently result in imbalanced optimization, either prioritizing region overlap or boundary accuracy, which leads to suboptimal segmentation performance.

Introduction: Investigating the psychological impact caused by the interruption of social interactions on university students during the pandemic is essential, with a view to developing strategies to preserve mental health and academic performance.
Objective: To analyze the impact of social isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental health of university students and propose recommendations for the post-pandemic period.
Method: This systematic review was conduced in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO).

Identifying effective biomarkers has long been a persistent need for early diagnosis and targeted therapy of disease. While mass spectrometry-based label-free proteomics with trace cell has been demonstrated, deep proteomics with ultratrace human biofluid remains challenging due to low protein concentration, extremely limited patient sample volume, and substantial protein contact losses during preprocessing. Herein, we proposed and validated lanthanide metal-organic framework flowers (MOF-flowers), as effective materials, to trap and enrich protein in biofluid jointly through cation-π interaction and O-Ln coordination.

Designing binders to target undruggable proteins presents a formidable challenge in drug discovery. In this work, we provide an algorithmic framework to design short, target-binding linear peptides, requiring only the amino acid sequence of the target protein. To do this, we propose a process to generate naturalistic peptide candidates through Gaussian perturbation of the peptidic latent space of the ESM-2 protein language model and subsequently screen these novel sequences for target-selective interaction activity via a contrastive language-image pretraining (CLIP)-based contrastive learning architecture.
