As a traditional Chinese medicine, is primarily sourced from cultivated plants due to the significant decline in wild resources. This shift raises concerns about potential differences in efficacy resulting from variations in morphological features and chemical composition between wild (WA) and cultivated (CA) . In this study, a suite of advanced analytical techniques including electronic nose, electronic tongue, and electronic eye, alongside headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and high-performance liquid chromatography, was applied to compare the morphological features and chemical components of WA and CA. Furthermore, principal component analysis and partial least-squares discriminant were employed for data analysis. The morphological features and chemical components of WA and CA were compared and analyzed. The results showed that three bionic technologies can distinguish WA from CA well and that fusion signals can distinguish better. There were differences between WA and CA in odor, taste, color, and content of the indicator components. There were correlations between the morphological features and the content of indicator components.

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is the second most common primary malignancy of the hepatobiliary system and presents as a heterogeneous disease with three distinct morphological subtypes: mass-forming, periductal-infiltrating, and intraductal-growing, each characterized by distinguishing imaging features. Accurate diagnosis of CCA is challenging due to the overlap of imaging findings with a broad range of benign and malignant conditions. Therefore, it is essential for radiologists to recognize these mimickers and offer a reasonable differential diagnosis, as this has a significant impact on patient management.

Background: Seismocardiographic signals (SCG) are chest wall vibrations induced by mechanical cardiac activities. This study investigated the morphological changes in the SCG signal due to respiration and exercise.
Methods: Fifteen healthy subjects were recruited, and SCG was acquired before and after exercise.

Flow cytometry immunophenotypic analysis is an important and indispensable tool in the diagnosis of mature B-cell lymphomas/leukemias, particularly for small fine needle aspiration and needle core biopsy specimens which are becoming increasingly popular for diagnostic purposes. Flow cytometry immunophenotyping (FCI) has several advantages. Given its multiparametric nature, FCI can analyze the expression of multiple antigens simultaneously on the same cell of interest, qualitatively and quantitively.
