In order to meet the fast and accurate automatic detection requirements of equipment maintenance in railway tunnels in the era of high-speed railways, as well as adapting to the high dynamic, low-illumination imaging environment formed by strong light at the tunnel exit, we propose an automatic inspection solution based on panoramic imaging and object recognition with deep learning. We installed a hyperboloid catadioptric panoramic imaging system on an inspection vehicle to obtain a large field of view as well as to shield the high dynamic phenomena at the tunnel exit, and proposed a YOLOv5-CCFE object detection model based on railway equipment recognition. The experimental results show that the mAP@0.5 value of the YOLOv5-CCFE model reaches 98.6%, and mAP@0.5:0.95 reaches 68.9%. The FPS value is 158, which can meet the automatic inspection requirements of railway tunnel equipment along the line and has high practical application value.

This paper explores the applicability of bicycle-inspired balance control in a quadruped robot model. Bicycles maintain stability and change direction by intuitively steering the handle, which induces yaw motion in the body frame and generates an inertial effect to support balance. Inspired by this balancing strategy, we implemented a similar mechanism in a quadruped robot model, introducing a yaw trunk joint analogous to a bicycle's steering handle.

Trehalose (Tre) is composed of two molecules of D-glucose joined by an α,α-1,1 glucosidic linkage. Because Tre is utilized by the gut microbiome and enhances gut immunity in chickens, it is used as a feed ingredient. However, taste preference and metabolic dynamics of Tre in chickens are not fully understood.

Introduction: Inflammation is a vital immune response, tightly orchestrated through both biochemical and biophysical cues. Dysregulated inflammation contributes to chronic diseases, highlighting the need for novel therapies that modulate immune responses with minimal side effects. While several biochemical pathways of inflammation are well understood, the influence of physical properties such as substrate curvature on immune cell behavior remains underexplored.

Sepsis remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide due to its rapid progression and heterogeneous nature. This review explores the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to transform sepsis management, from early detection to personalized treatment and real-time monitoring. AI, particularly through machine learning (ML) techniques such as random forest models and deep learning algorithms, has shown promise in analyzing electronic health record (EHR) data to identify patterns that enable early sepsis detection.

Introduction This study evaluated hip joint dynamic instability in patients with non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) with extensive lesions, who had undergone anterior rotational osteotomy (ARO) and high-degree posterior rotational osteotomy (HDPRO), based on the femoral head translation observed by computed tomography (CT) at 0° and 45° hip flexion. Materials and methods Medical records of patients who had undergone transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy for non-traumatic ONFH were retrospectively reviewed to identify patients who had undergone CT examinations six weeks post-operatively. In all, 64 hips (60 patients; 19 men and 41 women), comprising 36 hips treated with HDPRO and 28 hips treated with ARO, respectively, were included.
