Benzothiadiazole (BTH) regulates grape development, ripening, volatiles, and phenolics. This study used metabolomics and transcriptomics to understand how exogenous BTH affects Chardonnay grapes' maturation and synthesis of isoprenoids. A 0.37 mM BTH solution was sprayed during the swelling and veraison stages, and then the ripe grapes were analyzed. Our results show that BTH application significantly increased levels of important isoprenoids such as free terpinen-4-ol, bound linalool, and 8'-apo-β-carotenal. Additionally, BTH was found to modulate several signaling pathways, including those involved in ethylene biosynthesis, salicylic acid synthesis, the abscisic acid pathway, and sugar metabolism, by regulating the expression of genes like VvACO4, VvTAR, VvPLD, VvTIP1-1, VvSTKs, VvPK, VvSUC2, VvGST4, and VvSTS. BTH also promoted grapevine resistance by up-regulating the expression of VvHSP20, VvGOLS4, VvOLP, and VvPR-10. Furthermore, BTH affected isoprenoids biosynthesis by regulating the expression of VvTPS35 and VvMYB24. Moreover, 13 hub genes in the MEgreen module were identified as crucial for the biosynthesis of isoprenoids. BTH application during the swelling stage remarkably promoted isoprenoid biosynthesis more effectively than veraison. Our study provides insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying BTH-induced regulation of grape development and offers a promising approach for enhancing the quality and resistance of grapes.

Given the leveling off of PM, the coordinated control of PM and O has become a critical challenge in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH) region. Here, we leveraged long-term observation data spanning 2013 to 2023 to reveal spatiotemporal heterogeneity, provincial spatial correlation, and driving factors influencing PM and O integrating Moran's Index and correlation analysis. Additionally, sensitivity experiments on precursor emission reduction focusing on both overall and key sources were conducted by combining WRF-CAMx models and the empirical kinetic modeling approach (EKMA), and synergistic emission reduction pathways were proposed during periods of combined pollution.

Background: Patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive early breast cancer with residual invasive disease after neoadjuvant systemic therapy have a high risk of recurrence and death. The primary analysis of KATHERINE, a phase 3, open-label trial, showed that the risk of invasive breast cancer or death was 50% lower with adjuvant trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) than with trastuzumab alone.
Methods: We randomly assigned patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer with residual invasive disease in the breast or axilla after neoadjuvant systemic treatment with taxane-based chemotherapy and trastuzumab to receive T-DM1 or trastuzumab for 14 cycles.

Air pollution carries different disease burdens across all age groups, with the elderly and children being the most affected. Therefore, it is of practical significance to study air pollution exposure characteristics of different age groups in the context of accelerating aging in China. In this study, we used the number of people and air pollutant concentration data at the township-level scale (the smallest administrative unit in China) to calculate population-weighted PM concentration exposure (PM PWE) values of different age groups in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH) region, quantified the pollution exposure disparities among different groups, and analyzed the spatiotemporal changes in such differences and their driving factors.

Background And Aims: Gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) is a clinical manifestation of mechanical obstruction at the antropyloric region or proximal small bowel. The goal of endoscopic management is to relieve the obstruction so patients can resume per oral intake. Most studies have focused on malignant causes of GOO; yet only a handful have explored outcomes related to benign etiologies.
